memenib fm His Royal Majesty of the Memento for 1952 is tall, blond, and popular Herman Holtmeyer, brother of the Queen. He, too, is a junior and entered high school at Hancock after graduating from the St. An- drew elementary school. King Herman, himself a good sport, is fond of all athletic events, especially baseball. He is an ardent television fan, but can often be seen at the Lemay Theatre. The Yearbook staff found him not above do- ing menial labor as he was an efficient Memento worker. His favorite dish is fried chicken and his pet peeve is too much homework. Modes- ty seems to be his most outstanding char- acteristic and chewing gum his trade-mark. After graduation, Herman plans to enter the automotive field. 177617761722 H8817 Mildred Holtmeyer reigns as hostess over the 1952 Memento. Our pretty, blond, quiet, and refined queen is a member of the junior class having come to us as a sophomore. She served as president of her home room last year, and is an active mem- ber of the Y-Teens. Qheen Mildred's favorite sport is bas- ketball and she is an avid follower of the Tigers. She is fond of the outdoors and plans to spend some time perfecting her game of tennis this coming sunnnr. The colorful coronation ceremony took place at the beginning of the senior Leap Year dance. The candidates of the other classes served as attendants. A program was presented for the royal couple and the evening was spent in dancing to Ollie Klosterman's orchestra. She intends to become a secretary. a9Z3L

AQ OVQ PRINCIPAL uAn idle hand is a tool of the devil, don't sharpen the devil's tools here,n is a bit of advise given by our friend and principal, Mr. Arthur F. Langehennig. This sportsman, if given a chance, will tell you about the wild ducks he shot this fall and the fish he caught last summer while staying at his club house un the Meramac. Like all good sportsmen, he drems of taking a hunting trip to the Canadian Rockies: ' A former Hancock Coach, he may be seen at all of our athletic events urging the teams to victory. Our principal is an alumnus of Wash- ington lhiversity, having received a Master' s degree. 'lhis well informed and earnest gentle- man has a kind word and a cheery smile for everyone. SUPERAINTENDENT The progressive and capable leader of our schools is Mr. James Lindhurst, our superintendent. He was a former Hancock social science teacher and our high school principal before accepting his present position. Mr. Lindhurst is an avid fisherman in the Missouri streams, and enjoys working around his new home which was recently coupleted. Please! Oh, please! Don't be late if you have an appointment with him as he has little patience with people who do not keep engagements.
