Mr. Rielcer is retiring this year from the hustle and bustle of activities under the Big Top. Before coming to Marion he was a tool and die marlqer and a die designer. l-le has been one of our faithful trainers for twenty-seven years. ln i922 he began his career as Shop lnstructor. Advancement came fast and in l923 he was selected to be the co-ordinator of the vocational department. Since that time he has been successfully training new employees of our circus. During World War ll besides his circus routine he taught night classes for adults in machine shop and in blue' print reading. National defense classes were also held in which machine shop and welding were taught. He was responsible for G.l.'s in seven counties in the on the iob training and apprenticeship program. ln l947, at the height of his circus career, our retiring trainer was classified as supervisor of trades and industries of vocational education. An important accomplishment of his and his trainees, at this time, was the building of micro' meters for use in vocational shops in Chia schools. For all his accomplishments and for all the help he has given in training future stars during his career at the Bige Top we say thanks for a iob so nicely done. .ge el'

HU UH SIJIIIETY ..... ewar ing ulnerior f9 er ormance Every circus has its leature perlormers and the Harding Big-Top is no exception. It was our good lortune to have an abundance ot talent among our troupe in I949. Consequently, it was a very difficult task to select the above lorty-six students as mem- bers of this honorary society. They have been iound to possess outstanding traits ol scholarship, character, leadership, and service by both the faculty and their lellow classmates. We sincerely believe that this group is aware ol the great trust and faith placed in them, and that they will meet their obligation to society by putting into practice the many virtues lor which they have been so justly commended.
