It is the 25th year that T. T. Cranny has been principal of G.H.S. Mr. Cranny besides being the administrative head has been much more, He has been an inspiration and help to all of us. T.T. , as he is affectionately called, has never been known to refuse help to anyone, big or small, who needed it. No person who has ever entered Grinnell High School during T.T.'s term will ever forget those talks he makes at the beginning off each year. And we who are seniors sometimes look back and wish that we had followed his advice more carefully. Mr. Cranny has been very active in community and state affairs, as evidenced by tlhe many important offices he has held. He has always been interested in athletics and has taken a very active part in the Central Iowa Conference and other state athletic groups. He served on the Poweshiek County draft board throughout the war, is a member of the Stewart Library board, the youth council and is long- time secretaryhof the Grinnell Kiwanis Club. Mr. Cranny has become an integral part of Grinnell High School impressing all with his sincerity and friendliness. We of tlhe Grinnellian staff who are backed by the whole community of Grinnell are very proud to dedicate this 1948 Grinnellian to T. T. Cranny. X., WQMW?

We edited the first volume of our final edition in September of 1944, when as green freshmen we entered the halls of G.H.S. for the first time. We looked with awe upon the lofty seniors and we were very thrilled when any of them spoke to us. We became acquainted with the mysteries of electricity in General Science and it certainly did shock us. The Freshmen Science Club was organized and we decided that we liked to identify the stars best of all! We were first becoming interested in t-he opposite sex and enjoyed the Freshmen-Sophomore parties at the Tiger Den and the all-school parties. Even though we were only lowly freshmen, we were accepted in the music, F.F.A., and sports circles. Colleen Roseland and Darrell Iverson were elected our student council representatives. At the end of our freshman year, we were finally getting into the swing of things and were looking forward to our sophomore year when we could make fun of the green freshmen. 214 SK PIG 114 'lf PF As we began the second volume in our sophomore year we began to realize that We were catching on and we were almost VID as good as the juniors. Our star athletes, Criswell, Adams and German made the basketball varsity and we were very proud of them. This was the year that state music contests were held in Grinnell and some of the members of our class helped bring 22 Division I's to G.H.S.g even Jack Rilea got a Division I when he forgot his solo and played scales. We were interested in music and glee clubs but we also participated in other activities such as F.F.A., Orange and Black, :Latin and Spanish Club, and of course, sports. We were a carefree lot as sophomores, but we realized our carefree days were over as we under- took the grave responsibilities of upper-classmen. FF PF wk fs S' Sk As juniors we began volume three of the final edition. We organized our class and chose the Nelsons. O. B. and Doris, as our sponsors and we were really on our way toward running things. We chose Sonya Pedersen and Jerry Laros as our two presidents and selected our class colors and rings. We began to make our presence felt in sports again as Blackie Wittenburg became one of the main.stays of the Tiger foot- ball team and other members of our class made g0Od records in sports. We helped inaugurate the first Christmas vocal formal and our formal music concert was a big success. The faculty began to take notice of us as we became successful in our work on the Orange and Black, Annual Board, F.F.A., G.A.A. and many other fields of endeavor. The big event of the vear was putting on the prom for the seniors. Barbara Bailey was in charge of it. We-all found ourselves on an old Southern plantation the night of the prom. We had a Wonderful time when we were juniors but we looked forward with great anticipation to next year when we Would be running the school. PAGE 19 When we returned in the fall of '47 to edit Our final volume, we found that as usual the faculty was running things and not us. As f00tball Season I'08red by we found ourselves without a win until we beat Montezuma 7-6 in a post-season affair. German, Wittenburg, and Criswell were all awarded berths on the 8-ll-C0I1fP1'eHCG team, for their SPlendid work throughout the season. Basketball season found us with a strong team composed of five seniors, Which Compiled a. very enviable record despite a slump toward the end of the season. Some of the brains in our class began to show as Robert Norton became'one of the fifteen finalists in the state in the Pepsi-Cola contest and Jerry Laros and Darrell Iverson were named valedictorian and salutatorian respectively. The Annual Board Farce, vocal and band concerts, Youth Center parties an-d state basketball, music a.nd declamabory contests were past before we knew it. Then one day we found ourselves walking solemnly down the aisle in our caps and gowns for Baccalaureate. The Prom, at which we were the guests of the juniors, impressive Senior Y.W., Class Day with its speeches and music and finally the climax - Graduation. Graduation was a happy time with our parents and friend congratulations ringing in our ears and our grandiose plans for the future. But as we write our last by-line, we wish to say that if we live for a hundred years, we will never spend such an enjoyable four years J as we have spent within the walls of Grinnell High School.

Its staff had 87 members and was the smallest -one this year. The junior subjects are varied according to the course which the individual is taking. The main headline of our fall issue was organizng the class and electing officers. This class started something new by organizing political parties. The campaign was voiced mostly through posters and speeches for your candidate. The sponsors elezted were Miss Tatum and Mr. Norris. There was more than just electing officers in our class. We had to select class colors and class rings. The colors chosen were blue and white. These colors along with the senior colors will be used in decorating for the proin. We found that it was hard to choose our class rings from the three choices. We finally voted and are now showing them off.

CLASS DF 1949 The nssistzint staff of the Orange and Black is made up mostly of juniors. This issue of the paper. We discovered that we have some good writers and humorists. The annual board staff is made up partly of juniors who learn what to do and making their own annual. Myrtle Lou Sanger was assistant editor and John Kaufman manager. They will succeed the editor and business manager next year. Of course, the biggest headline of the juniors comes in the spring when we put PAG E 35 stafff had to write one what not to do when was assistant business on the prom for the seniors. This was held the latter part of May. The theme for the prom this year was An Old Fashioned Garden, The juniors have to decorate the gym for the Honor G dance that is the week before the prom. We are sure that everyone enjoyed the prozn and We are looking forward to next year when we will be seniors.

PAGE 36 CLASS OF 1950 September 1937 saw the second edition of the class of 1950. Its staff had 99 members and was the largest staff in G.H.S. Our subjects this year were geometry, English, world history, and an elective from Latin, Spanish, homemaking, agriculture, manual training, or bookkeeping. In our fall issue football was the headline. Martin Hankinson was the football hero of the sophomore class. He played fullback and won a letter. Also in the fall issue is the student council election. This year we elected Mac Molison our representative to serve with Roger Mitchell and Jane Lang who were elected last year. In November the vocal department put on an operettafBelle of Bagdad. Marilyn Sam- mons, Nancy Vine, Louise Jones, Jane Lang, Esther Ann Jones, and Joann Hamilton were special oriental dancers and singers. Marilyn Strasser, Peggy Arnold, and Bill Wilson were American dancers. Basketball was our headline for the winter issue. The Froshmore basketball squad had a successful season. In conference games we won 5 and lost 5. Same of these scores were very close. In the Ames tilt it was necessary to play two overtimes before they 'finally beat us by one basket, but Martin Hankinson put in a bucket in the ifew remaining seconds of the Newton game and we won by one point. The Spanish Club had a traditional Spanish Christmas Party. The main attraction was the pinata. This vras the large container shaped like a bird. We put candy inside and someone had to break it with a stick in order to get the candy out. In Mexico it is a little easier to break the clay pinatas than the papcr one that we had. Our headline for the spring issue was band concerts and contests. The band members enjoyed playing two concerts at Brooklyn and Montezuma in March. The formal vocal concert was also in March. The soph- omore sextette, which is considered one of the best, .sang several selections. Its members are Joann Hamilton, Ingrid Hilke, Wilma Schmitz, Marilyn Strasser, Jane Lang, and Esther Ann Jones. Billy Doyle, Melvin Tone, Ingrid Hilke, Marilyn Strasser, Jane Lang, Ann Peters, and Billie DeHart played in small band groups in the contest in April. It seems that the sophomore class has an inclination toward music. The Sophomore Science Club attended the Junior Academy of Science Convention at Fairfield in the spring. Mac Molison, president of our club, has served as treasurer of the state organization for the past year. In May we closed our shop until September when we will become upperclassmen! 5.

PAGE 38 CLASS. 0F 1951 FRESHMEN The first edition of the class of '51 went to preSs in September, 1947. Its staff had 96 members. Since we had not been to this school before, we found it difficult to find the right classrooms. The classes we had were algebra, .general science, English, and Latin, Spanish, homemaking, or agriculture. Besides the classes there are many outside activities such as: glee club, band, Science Club, Spanish Club, F.F.A., F.H.A., and student council. The headline of the fall issue was football. Many freshman boys practiced faithfully every night. There was also a freshman-sophomore grid squad. Also in the fall issue was the student council election. Sue Bailey and Roger Zimmerman were elected our representatives. The freshman members of the glee clubs sang in the chorus of The Belle of Bagdadf' - Basketball was the headline for our winter issue. The Froshmore squad came out even in their con- ference games winning 5 and losing 5. Christmas and New Years came during the winter issue. Highlights of this season were: a formal dance by the vocal music groups, Christmas caroling and a party at the Loft afterwards, New Years 'Eve party at Congregational Church, and best of all, two Weeks of vacation! In the middle of January the second semester began, and we had our classes changed - it was disappointing to find our friends in different sections, but it was fun to make new friends. This year the freshmen had one day a week set aside for speech work. During the second semester several of our students participated in speech contests. Bill Holmes gained fame for himself and G.H.S. in his delivery of a humorous speech, Warts and Spooksf' Olive Shope won in the dramatic division with her selection, Dreams Do Come True. Dean Martin placed in the oratorical division wth his selection, Racial Intolerance. Several of the students have participated in plays during the year The spring issue was the last of our first edition. Spring is the time when it is easy to forget our books and take to the outdoors. The boys go out for track. The girls seem to take an interest in watc-hing the track boys on Ward Field. The highlight of the Science Club year came in April when we attended the Junior Academy of 'Science of Iowa convention at Parsons College, Fairfield, Iowa. The music contests come in the spring, too. All freshmen band members Went with the band and several played in small groups. On May 28 we closed up the press office until rfall, when We will be back as sophomores to begin our second edition.

Its purpose of promoting fuller appreciation of Roman life and literature was carried out by programs consisting of plays and presentations of various phases of Roman life. Christmas and April fool customs were studied. At one program during the year members of the first year Latin classes were invited as guests. The program of a guest speaker was especially enjoyed by members of the club as well as by former club members who were guests for the day. The aediles arranged games with a .Latin flavor for each meeting. 'These contributed in no small degree to the success and interest of the club.

PAGE 46 FUTURE HOMEMAKEBS OF AMERIC 'The F.H.A. is one of the largest and most active clubs in high school. Initiation was held the latter part of September and on a pretty night in October the girls had a hayride for the Future Farmers of America. November 1 saw twenty girls travel to Newton :for the district meeting, both recreational and educational. The latter part of November the girls again entertained the boy.s at a skating party. The December meet- ing included Christmas caroling followed by a grab-bag and refreshments in the homemaking room. For the February meeting the girls put on an amateur show with prizes going to .Edith Criswell, Wilma Schmitz and Joan Sidie. At the installation of new officers, in May, the mothers were invited. Two bake sales were held during the year, one in November and the other in March. The .girls com- pleted three charitable projects during the year. They were: Christmas boxes for two needy families in Grinnell, money for the care of needy in Europe, and seeds for Europe's gardens. Mrs. Selden Norris is sponsor of the club. F.H.A.

VOCAL MUSIC lit you had happened lu stroll by the music r00m between the hours of one and two, a variety of sounds vqould have greeted your ears. On Tuesdays, male voices would be booming forth and on Thursdays, female. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays there was a mixture of voices, known as a Capella. 'l'he voi-al groups were very busy this year participating in a number of activities. The main event of the year was the presentation oi' the operetta, The Belle of Bagdadf' The operetta played before capacity audiences at a matinee and two evening performances and was well received. It was later given before the patients at the Knoxville mental hospital. The next event on the agenda of the vocal calendar was the traditional Christmas program. The beauti- l'ul l?hristinas story was read by Sue Bailey and Mary Ellen Brock and was interspersed by the familiar i'liristnias niusic sung by the a capella, soloists, and Sinall groups. At Christmas-time, the vocal groups also had a llormal dance which was enjoyed by all, On March 24, the vocal groups all participated in a formal spring concert. A wide variety of songs, ranging from the rid culous lo the sublime were presented. Soloists, small groups and the eighth grade chorus also added to the variety ol' the program, Three student Conductors were selected by the students to assist, Miss liaker in directing the concert, They were: Tom Mintle, Tom Playle, and Patty Pieper. The clunax or the year came in the month of April when the two glee clubs, a capella, soloists and small groups went, to l'ella, Newton, Fairfield and Boone to participate in the preliminary and state contests. All the groups pert'ornied creditably, reflecting the careful training and inspiration of Miss Baker.

The story tells of a woman consul to the city of Bagdad, her daughter, another American girl and their adventures with soldiers, Sultans, and the police. A romantic Spinster and a typical Englishman added comedy. The Oriental and American dancers, the Marine troop and the Awkward Squad added color to the performances. The audience was held in suspense until the end to learn whether the American movie scouts found the beautiful Belle of Bagdad whom they sought.

Kids who just yesterday were puffing away in the back rows were first-chair players. Mr. Hills deserves much credit for building up the band to the first-rate organization it is today. The main activity of the fall season was, of course, football games. Hour after hour's trudging in the hot sun was rewarded by good performances at the games. Bad luck was encountered at Oskaloosa when a down- pour threatened the elaborate crepe-paper Maypole, but nothing more serious than color blotched hands and uniforms resulted. Many muddy marchers thought they deserved a letter. The concert season which followed was marked by an all-day concert tour to Brooklyn and Montezuma. Concerts were played here on December 7th and May 9th. The pep band was active at pep meetings and at all of the home basketball games. Small groups, .such as the woodwind trio, clarinet quartet, brass sextet, brass quartet, and trumpet trio played over twenty-five times in and around Grinnell, music ranging from Spike Jones to Bach. Spring was also an eventful time for the band. The preliminary contest for soloists and ensembles was held at Pella and the preliminary for band at Newton. Out of twenty events entered, fourteen division I ratings were earned. The state contest for band, soloists and en- sembles was held at Fairfield, with 7 division I ratings BAND PERSONNEL FLUTES: Betty Kaisand, Jane Lang, Ann Peters, Patricia Padgham, Mary Pat McNally, Anita Walter, Carolyn Raffety, Shirley Tice.

N5 ,V , . x X -'mfr ' PAGE 54 SPEECH CTIVITIES This fall when the students of G. H. S. returned they were surprised to learn that they had a speech teacher, Miss Myrna Brechbiel. It was the first time in several years that there had been organized speech classes. The freshman students were given one period of speech each week as part of their English class work. ,Also there was a special class of sophomores and juniors. The first venture of the year in drama was a program .of three one-act plays which were presented to the public in October, Of these, The Lost Kiss was a Pierrot and Pierrette fantasy, Sparkin ' was a comedy of courting in the horse and buggy days, The Valiant was a serious prison drama. Later in the winter two practice teachers from the college, Phyllis Pincus and Orv.lle Burns directed two one-act plays which were given for assembly for junior and senior high schools. Little Jack Horner , directed by Miss Pincus, involved a young boy with a vivid im- agination who aided his sister in getting her boy friend back. The Remarkable Baby , SPEECH UUNTEST WINNERS directed by Mr. Burns, resolved a broken love affair by means of ventriloquism.

Individual declamatory Work was resumed this year and fourteen students entered contests. At the local contest there were six dramatic, five humorous, two original and one interpretative reading contest- ants, ,At the preliminary meet one each of our contestants entered, the interpretative reading advancing by reason of no competition at the local level. Bill Holmes and Olive Shope Went to the sub-district and Bill went to the district where he received a III rating. ANNUAL BOARD FARCE UFEATHERS IN A GALE Feathers in a Gale was a hilarious comedy of a situation surrounding three young widows of early colonial days and their solution to the problems of their single estate. After inevitable mixups they avoided the widow's vendue and settled into married life again. Miss Myrna Brechbiel directed the play for the benefit of the Grinnellian fund.

The puppets used in Back-fire were made and operated by the author, Jerry Laros. The effectiveness of the little actors was displayed to the fullest degree by the skill and deftness of the amateur puppeteer. Two skits were presented, a minstrel show and a Spanish number.

It concerns the efforts of Judy Graves and her bosom friend Fuffy .Adams who, through a misunderstanding, think that Ellen Curtis is in love with Mr. Graves. Judy and Fuffy try to get Ellen to marry Judy's uncle, Willis. This brings about further complications between J.B., Ellen's father, and Mr. Graves.

C0- editors were Ken Cessna and Jerry Laros, who worked in co-.operation with the advisers: Miss Cook and Miss Wilson. The task of setting up and printing the paper was accepted by Mr. William Gossen. The Orange and Black was supported by money from subscriptions and advertising obtained through the circulation and advertising depart- ments. Special money for pictures came from the sale of pencils. The concerted efforts of all the people in the 0 and B organization made possible the production of their yearly quota of 12 issues.

The theme of the 1948 yearbook, a newspaper, was carried out by the division and end sheets and in the style of writing. The business staff was in charge of the subscription and advertising sales and of the concession at the basketball tournament. Miss Matlack was the general advisor, helping plan pictures, prepare copy for cuts, editing and directing the hulk of the work. Mr. Palmer was advisor to the business staff. Special appreciation is due Mrs. Palmer who did much of the preliminary work on the concession and Miss Brechbiel who directed the annual board farce. We of the Grinncllian board have put many hours on the preparation of this, your yearbook, and we hope that it will bring you many years of pleasure and satisfaction.

The Student Council is the student governing board of the school. The members are elected by the student body and each year one person is chosen from each class except the freshman which elects two. The Council meets every Tuesday morning with the advisor, Mr. Cramiy. It is very active in helping to shape school policies. It also serves in many areas, supervising many school elections, building the assembly program, providing pep meetings for all home games. The Council works closely with the Youth Center Governing Board. It supervises the election of that body and helps with the parties there.

The irame, regarded as Poweshiek County Championship, was played on Ward Field. The proceeds went, to the G.H.S. band uniform fund. The game was a success from all anqles as far as Grin- nellians are eoneerned. The Timers were expected to show up for conference competition with a pretty hig' growl this year but the boys could never seem to fret on their ponies at the same time. As a result, the fellows were taking: it on the south end of their new football suits most of the season. The season started off with a hang.: and it was all McKinley of Cedar Rapids. The boys eame close in the first half out eouldn't push the hall across the stripes. Result: The Presidents 18 The 'Fingers 0. The next irame found the Tiirers at home airainst miprhty Marshalltown and everything: was nice and FOZZIE.

At the end it was: Them 32 - Us-uns 19. tThose Little Cyclones have a lot to blow ahout.j The Tigers were the favored team only once during the season. This, when they played Osky for the Cellar Championship. However, due to an inspired Oskv eleven 4Homec-omingl and oceans of mud, they were iheld to a 0-ll tie for the hottom. Next eame the Cedar Rapids Champ, Wilson, more mud, and Hallowe-'en. The less said the better, but in the I-losing minutes Criswell swam around end for a tallv and Rilea slooped over right tackle for the extra point. In ease you're inter'-sled. the scoring in the Monte irame was on a jump pass from QB Rilea to end Krumm in the end zone. Bud Simmons scored the winning point. Although the Tigers had some tough luek this season, six of the team were honored on the All-Conferenee Selections. In the line they were: Flyde German, End, Sf-eond Team: Ken Kaisand, Tackle, Honorable Mention: Junior Duncan, Guard, Honorable Mention: and Bob Wittenburq. Center, Ser-ond Team. In the baekfield there were only two: Paul Vriswell, Half-back, Second Team. and Jaek Rilea, Quarter-liaelt, Honorable Mention. Team Reeord: Won 1 Lost 6 Tied 1 0. B.

The Tiger Cubs finished the grid season with three Losses and one victory, having two more games with Oskaloosa cancelled. The season started with Newt0n's sophomores trouncing Grinnell 34-O, in our own back yard. It sure was wet out there! After recovering from this onslaught they met Tama's team here and made a basketball-like score of 32-25. Close wasn't it? They next played Newton freshmen there after a fresh rain. The score looked close for Grinnell at the half, 6-6, then the Cubs made Seven more points, for a final score of 13-6. Boy, we won one! Ready and waiting, the Froshmores went to Tama only to go down again in defeat, 18-0. Along with the bumps and bruises, the Frosh-Sophs have gained valuable experience which they will take with them into the '48-'49 varsity season.

TRACK When the days grow warm, the trees begin to bud, and when the fish start to bite, it comes time for our trackmen to take to the cinders. Almost half the boys in G.H.S. report to Coach Lamb the first day of the season. Some for their love of the sport, some because of the spring weather, and some to make up P.T. credits. Track is regarded by many as a sissy sport, but it's really just the opposite. To run the 440 or half mile takes a lot of courage, stamina, and plenty of just plain ole', shall we say, intestines, -Unfortunately, this 'copy falls due before we know too much about what the boys can do. However, we do know that they placed in three of the five events they entered in their first meet. According to Coach Lamb, the outstanding entry is the crack mile relay team, which is composed of P. Criswell, W. Hendrickson, B. Dimit, and B. Simmons. In the individual department, We find L. Krumm and W. Fritz running the high hurdles, K. Phipps in the high jump and K. Paulson in the pole vault. P. Criswell, run- ning a fast 440 and Carl Evans, a freshman, barreling down the 100-yard stretch, seem to dominate the dashes. Our distance runners appear to be D. Ritter and McDowell in the mile and J. Laros in the half mile. Criswell, Hendrickson, Dimit, Krumm, Fritz, Paulson and Laros are all seniors.

However, this doesn't quite fit because the boys didn't come in with a roar. As a matter of fact, the fellows lost three of their first four games. About the middle of the season, the Tigers began to growl. During this period, the team put together a 9 won, 1 lost string. Kenny, Paul, Serge, Clyde, and Archie reached the height of perfection. The boys performed with almost machine-like action. The basket shooting, the floor games and the teamwork were the best display of basketball seen around here in many a year. G.H.S. would have put the boys up against any team in the state, and if the tournament had started at this time they might have been the Champs. However, the Tigers developed a slump in late season and Boone put the damper on any Grinnell Central Iowa Conference title hopes by pinning a 50-39 defeat on the team on the home court. Boone, in- cidentally, was the only club to Whip the Tigers twice. The Tigers then lost successive games to Newton and Montezuma, the latter put an end to any tournament aspirations the team and fans may have had. One of the things that carried the Tigers through the season was their scoring punch. Only once were they held below 29 points. This was 22 points against Roosevelt, Des Moines, who up to tournament time, was acclaimed the top team in Central Iowa. For the season the Tigers counted 624 points to their oppon- ents 518. . The end of the cage season found the Tigers in a tie for second place with Marshalltown and Osky. This was the best record the Tigers have compiled since they won the title in '41, When the ,All-Conference laurels were handed out at the end of the season, three G.H.S. boys were given places on the teams. Clyde German and Paul Criswell were chosen as the two forwards on the first' team and Kenny Adams, guard, landed a berth on the .All-Conference second team. Roses, gentlemen, roses!

FROiSH-SOPH SEASON And now the Freshman-Sophomore team - the bays who will bear the brunt of G.H.S. hard court attack next year. The boys compiled an excellent record and are to be commended for it.

The and lost three games before they found themselves. future basketball plans of Grinnell look bright. season. This was the first year of C.I.C. regularly off with a pretty big bang. Some of the games fellows started off slowly in conference competition Then they won three straight before losing to Ames again, and finally ended the season with a conference record of 5 won, and 5 lost. When the final re- sults Were tabulated it was found that Roger Zimmerman, guard, was the leading conference scorer. It it interesting to note that although Ames won the first title without a defeat, the Tiger Juniors came the closest to turning the trick by forcing the fast .Ames outfit into two overtime periods before bowing out in the Sudden Death overtime by a score of 43 to 41. Roger Zimmerman, freshman, led the club in scoring, but it is interesting, and reassuring to note that Zimmerman, Hagen, Bonyata, Hankinson, and Manly took their turns at being high point man along with steady contributions from Ritter. The boys work smoothly together and once they grow a little and attain some height, G.H.S. is going to put a formidable quintet on the floor. Here's wishing them the best of luck and a silent prayer that they don't suffer the cold spells ocf this year'S team, because, as we found out fthanks to Montel, they're fatal.
