Between these covers are bound our memories which we would have you look upon as a Scrapbook. Memories of all our everyday school du- ties, outside interests, and many other various activities are assembled here in this Scrapbook arrangement. page four Ae ' JUALa DEDICATION We, the class of ' 40, do sincerely dedicate this Mar- tian in appreciation of his untiring cooperation, guid- ance, and leadership during our high school years, to Mr. Howard Dolman, our highly respected principal. page five TJie ' ' J 2AZla.rL. o iewuc Axi We, as 1940 Seniors of Hart High, have attempted to present to you through this Hartian, a record of our school activities during our years of high school. It has been the duty of every Hartian StafiE member to collect material of different activities in which the students have participated during high school. We have tried to present to you by publishing this Hart- ian just what has been taking place during our years here in the place we have learned to love. As we have performed duties throughout our high school days, we have learned that the hardest tasks are those not easiest overcome while traveling along Life ' s rough and rocky Pathways. We know that suc- cess awaits us only if ' e strive for it. It is our privi- lege to advance step by step until we stand at the very edge of Life ' s Forest. The wants of the future beckon us on, so if we start ' right and keep right we shall reach the goal. With this as a background and mindful of the fact that we must use our opportunities as they are pre- sented to us, we are confident that we shall achieve success.

ADMINISTRATION FACULTY Hart High School is fortunate to have a group of faculty members who are well qualified for their positions. This may be attested by the fact that our school holds the highest possible accredit- ing by the North Central Association. Many of our teachers hold Masters degrees, while almost all have taken some post-graduate work. It may be said that ou r faculty in general is a congenial group working always toward the best interest of the individual student. MR. MAURICE SNOW Superintendent Good morning, how are you.

Class History On the afternoon of September ii we, the Freshman Class, entered Hart High for our first time. There were about 77 students altogether, many having come in from the country schools. After a few weeks of wandering around the building and getting ourselves acquainted with the routine of Hart High, we were called together for our first meeting. Mr. Benjamins was chosen class adviser. The following class officers were chosen: president, Jean Marie North- rup; vice-president, Gene Boundy; secretary, Allen Crosby; treasurer, Joyce Kludy. The social event of the year was the freshman party given in April. It was well attended and enjoyed by all. It was a great success due to the orchestra, refreshments, decorations, and the committees in charge. Altogether, we had a very successful year and are ready to take our next step as Sophomores.

The various high schools represented in our group are; Hart, five; Shelby, five; Montague, five, Hesperia, two; Whitehall, one; Walker- ville, one; and Pentwater, one. We have enjoyed our work here this year, and we are much indebted to our teachers, Miss Landon, critic; Miss Becker, instruction; and Miss Stout, music. We have also had the benefit of various lectures. Miss Evans and Dr. Sears, of the Children ' s Fund of Michigan, have spoken on health problems. The Michigan Department of Health has presented us with a course of lectures by the following speakers; W. J. Meyers; Emily Ripka, M. D.; William R. Davis, D. D. S. ; LaRue Miller; Elizabeth Whipple; and Pearl Turner. The movies and grade assemblies have also been a great help to us. Mr. Meisch supervised a first-aid demonstration by the boy scouts, which was interesting. The social side of County Normal experience has been taken care of in various ways. We were entertained at a Halloween party given by Ruth Pearson and Effie Stanford. The critic room children entertained us at a lovely Saint Valentine ' s party, and in return the Normal gave an Easter party for them. We also attended a lecture at Shelby, Waters That Run to the Sea, given by Ben East, the noted out-door editor of the Chronicle. We are anticipating an enjoyable skip-day trip before we graduate on May twenty-second. We separate, hoping that we shall be teaching next year.

HONOR STUDENTS In recent years the high school curriculum has evolved from a college preparatory one to one that meets the needs of all students whether they are planning a professional career or not. So many new phases have entered into high life that the stress on scholarship, has in some cases been left in the background. It is our purpose here, however, to introduce those, who in our Senior Class, have achieved a high scholastic record. The students shown below have records ranging from all A down to B averages. The order of rank is as follows: Valedictorian, Marjorie Kludy, with an all A record;Salutatorian, Dorothy Brimmer, with a record of 3.75 out of a possible 4 points. Next in order are: Marjorie Kludy. Dorothy Brimmer Everett Greiner Muriel Brubaker Burton Cargill Bonnie Beadle Maxine Rickard Doris Lawhorne Richard Schramm Lorna Fetters Dorothy Wood Nedra Dillingham Fred Stevens Edward Carlson LaVerle Lathrop Martin Misevic Calla Schick Jack Trommater •TlHk li,-r- -.

We realize that after we receive our diplomas tomorrow night our studies here will be ended, and we shall be ready to take our places among you. Our greatest desire is to be able to over- come the difficulties that will face us, and to successfully fill our places. We wish to express our sincere gratitude to our parents, teachers, and friends who gave us the encouragement and guidance necessary to give us confidence and ability to complete our education thus far. It is hard for us to tell you just how much v ' e appreciate all you have done for us, but we want you to know that we feel greatly in- debted and will do all within our power to prove that your efforts were not in vain. And so, fellow-graduates, as vi ' e take our leave, after four exciting years of com- panionshop and guidance, may we always cherish the experiences and friendships we have had in Hart High. Marjorie Kludy Salutatory We, the class of 1940, have reserved this e ening and tomorrow evening to bring to a climax our four joyous years here at Hart High School. In behalf of the class, I extend a most hearty greeting to you, the audience, gathered here to help us do this. We wish to express our sincere gratitude and appreciation to you, our parents, teachers, and friends, for your unselfish assistance and encouragement which you have given us throughout our entire high school career. We have encountered many steep cliffs of difficulty, the summits of which were seemingly impossible. But you lent a helping hand to guide us patiently, not only to the summit, but over it to success. As we look back on the past four years, we shall always be confronted with many golden memories. The companionship and good will which predominated our ex- periences will be unforgetable. As we look forward, we see manv hopes of making you as proud of us as we are grateful to you. We shall put to work our knowledge, together with the strong will and courage which have been built up, and strive for the highest goals of success. It is with an acknowledgment of the friendship and interest shown by your pre- sence here tonight that we again bid you welcome. Dorothy Brimmer page thirty-two _ «e ' r4 iMZa iI Class Prophecy For four years, classmates, we have struggled together and now we must part. It is interesting to know how well you will succeed in the task you are about to undertake and vvhat that task will be. Though you are not aware of the fact, among your classmates there are those capable of foretelling your future. Behold, before you stand two who possess the power to see into the great dim beyond. Your air castles may be broken but that ' s not our fault. Maxine — I see the events of 1950. Dorothy and I are sharing this evening together in her Chicago apartment, as an evening to bring back old memories of High School days. It is dusk and Dorothy has just come home from work. She has of late been decidedly disgusted with the world, for she is earning only $4 per week as an interior decorator. Nevertheless, she has kept up correspondences with several high school friends; some of those of whom she knows not, I have met in my travels through Europe and the United States this year and last. Dorothy — Just this morning I received a letter from our Valedictorian, Marjorie Kludy, who is the commercial teacher in the Meats Consolidated High School saying that she dined with Mr. and Mrs. Milton Fuller, Mrs. Fuller formerly Doris Law- horne. They make a very congenial couple as Doris is permitted to do all the talking. She also wrote that Mr. Dalman is the New Superintendent and Dorothy Brimmer is his private secretary. Other news contained in her letter was that Edward Carlson is running his father ' s farm and also has a bachelor quarter of which Norman Robinson, the Meats mailman, is an occupant. Wilbur Heydenberk is running the Mears News. He obtained this promotion as a result of his ability to obtain white e.xcuses in high school. Maxine — While attending the horse races at Belmont Park a few weeks ago, I met Ruth Morat, Ida Bell Fuller, and Eulalia Baker, who are not popular Chicago Society debutantes. I also learned that Doctor Niley DuSquat Duey Christopher Bailey is the great veterinary of Bing Crosby ' s horses. Did you know that Bill Leemhuis and Burnie Barclay have become airplane pilots, carrying mail between Chicago and Los Angeles? And that Nedra Dillingham is now the prima donna at the Metropolitan Opera Company, and in one of her recent concerts was accompanied by the New York Symphony Orchestra, of which John Schestag is the new director and of which LaVerle Lathrop, Herbert Zuhl, Bob ShuU, and Doris Nutenbaum are members. Dorothy — Say, Mac, the other day in a movie magazine I saw an ad for Drene Shampoo for which Calla Schick was posing. On the back cover of the magazine Harriet Haverly appeared as a model for French Silk Below-the knee hose. And that reminds me of a newspaper clipping from the Milwaukee Journal, now edited by Johnny Matulis, which stated that Charlotte Lou Chandler, the all-round woman athlete played against Hannah Fuller in the tennis tournament which was held in Tennysville, Kentucky. In the same clipping, Alfred Fetters, known as Alphonso, is now considered one of the greatest promoters of boxing matches in the United States. He has just completed arrangements for staging a bout between Chris Jensen and Cad SeelhofI for the paper weight championship ot the world. Maxine — Well, to give you time to catch your breath, I ' ll tell you some interest- ing incidents about my travels. While passing through Reno, Nevada, I met Martin Misevic, now practicing a lawyer ' s profession, specializing in divorce and breach of promise suits. His latest case involved a suit by Lolamay Fuller, now a movie actress, against Garth Masse, stage manager for Paramount Pictures. When I landed in Seattle, I ran across Everett Greincr, who, you remember, was one of our best history and physics students and now plans to study the fossil remains of the far north for historical data; while Raymond Schaner will act as an o perater of the ship. Everett told me of his great scientist friend, Levi Ducolon, who is endeavoring to discover a method by which Mars can be reached. Levi, who like all great men, has for his secretary, Mildred Campbell, who finds it difficult to keep a record of his discoveries. Dorothy — Speaking of scientists, Lee Beadle, the great scientist, is now married and has started an experimental farm for raising and studying litde beetles. By the way, what happened to Bonny Beadle.? page thirty -thre ■2«e ' 7 ' iAZuuj- Maxine — Oh, yes, Bonnie, the little girl who never grew up, has found a positio ' i very suitable to her youthful ways, for she is a kindergarten teacher in the Chicago University. Bob Tice, who is one of her recent pupils, began over again. Dorothy — On my way to the library last night, I met my old pals, Lorena Pear- son and Kathryn Budde, who are now professional hair dressers. They told me that Lucille Marsh and Rose Buchner, the famous singing and dancing team of the Stork Club, were their regular patrons. When we reached the library, we dis- covered that Evelyn Bowier was the head librarian and Willard Chichester was the official custodian. Among the books that we ran across were How to Overcome Bashfulness, by Ruth Cederquist and Laurence Kelley! Clean Speech and How to Promote It, by Buck Beadle; and Eat and Grow Thin, by Jack Glover. Maxine — While listening to the radio the other night, I concluded that Alice Jane Winget still continues to be a great talker and is now running as first woman candidate for governor of Michigan. She has the support of two former teachers. Miss Gibson and Miss Rich. Also, I heard a great sermon by Leonard Brown, who now exceeds the great evangelist, Billy Sunday. Earlier in the evening, a neighbor boy was listening to Renfew of the Mountain, now impersonated by John Lipski. I also listened to the White Sox ball games of which Marral Cloud is the famous pitcher. During the game, an advertisement came through of Burton Cargill ' s date-machine which is guaranteed not to get the girls mixed. Dorothy — As this is 1950, I suppose Redmond and Raymond Crosby, the census takers of this section, will be around soon! Maxine — I suppose so; I hear they are getting 10 cents a name for doing such an excellent job. I heard they got |i for Ole ' s family. Did you know that Mr. Meisch is now the Boy-Scout Master of America, and that going the other way, Bob Bruckman is working on a W.P.A. project in his vicinity. And speaking of home, many of our classmates remamed in their home town. Richard Schramm has made decided improvements in the Schramm Bakery and now sells super-fresh bread and two-day-old sweets. Don Hart is the manager of the A.P. Store. Genevieve Cole is now owner of the Pike Cafe. Dorothy — You know, there were a few of our school mates that were married soon after school was out. Doris Nielsen was married and now lives in Grand Rapids. Muriel Brubaker was also married and is now raising future Well men. Norman Geisey married a marine officer and just finished a trip to Europe. Dawn Bettin married and she and her husband are raising Adams Apples. Jack Trom- mater has started a poultry farm raising little Schickens. Who would have thought it. Maxine — Oh, Joan Peterson, (who is now living in New York), said she attended the wild Jazzadiers Circus of which Jack Mesick is manager. She took in a couple shows. Who should she see but Jean Jensen, an expert Hawaiian dancer, with Ira Chichester strumming on the ukelele — (he learned the trade from his sister- in-law); and the noted Patty Lampman, the great string-instrument teacher. She also met Mi . Kenneth Peters, who had an ice cream, popcorn, lemonade, cracker- jack stand. Kenneth had just seen a movie with Geraldine Hipley and Lorna Fet- ters as stenographers in the picture. Dorothy — Here is a clipping I just noticed. Fred Stevens is the President of the United States Champion Basket-Bail Squad. Three of its members are Dan Straley, Wimp Wyckoff, and Wayne Tate. Look! It says there that Louie Munger and Marion Hasty have just patented a machine to curl or straighten your hair at will. You knew, didn ' t you, that Marjorie Gowell is head nurse in Hart Hospital. ' ' Dorothy — Here ' s an article written by Charlotte Hart. Is she ever a good reporter lately.? If she keeps on, she will be in the head lines. She says that since her high school days, Florence Sutherland has made very good. She is now married to a rich banker, who is in partnership with Erwin Sutherland. Maxine — Classmates, we hope you like the prospects that lie before you. Having given you an accurate statement of your future, we withdraw as our vision ends.

His foundation must be strong as stons. Constructed with the utmost care. To weather well the storms of life, The strain of years to undergo, To stand up under joy and strife. It must be strong and high; not weak and low. The time has come for us to start To build our house of life. To plan the blue print for each part, To consider each major tool, each trife. The foundation for our house is layed. Having character and personality as a base. Weak stones can not now be arrayed, Nor dark blotches now can we erase. With greater and deeper thought The rest must be distilled. Before us lies the timber. Now let us build. Bonnie Bead ' t. Class Song SOME DAY {Tune of Over the Rainbow ) Passed our grades which measure to the highest; Sometime we ' ll ha e a mem ' ry All our own When our thoughts all will wander Back to these days we ' ve known. Sometime we ' ll think of friendships We ' ve had here; And our days will be brighter For thoughts we all hold dear. We ' ve been thn: ' hardships, fun and pleasure Passed our grades which measure to the highest; We ' re past our funs and so have learned That joys and life you have to earn. Some day when you ' re departing You ' ll know why; You seem dear to our hearts in Dreams of Our Old Hart High. — Nedia Dillingham. page thirty-six : JAe U injUa .

The orchestra played at both the Junior and Senior plays, at a Wo- man ' s Progressive Club meeting, and they gave one assembly to the high school. They were planning to hold a District Festival in Hart on April 12 for orchestras, but due to a very limited number participating, the festi- val was called off.

SENIOR PLAY China Boy is a rollicking, fast-moving comedy in which the principal of the Middlesboro High School, Will Parker (Everett Greiner) and his wife (Hannah Fuller) are having a trying time in guiding their children, Bill (Richard Schramm) and Sclma (Alice Jane Winget) through the age of adolescense. Bill is wrapped up in football and Selma has only one interest; she wants to win the Middlesboro Munchie Crunchie Ice Cream popularity contest in Hollywood. Then literally out of the sky drops Mark Willis (Martin Misevic), Mrs. Parker ' s nephew. Mark is a model of virtue and is always helpful, and is always quoting some quotation from Confucius. He is soon taken under the wing of a twelve-year-old terrorist, Lula Mae Robinson (Ruth Morat) who attempts to get him into trouble so that the Parker children will like him. Other members of the cast arc Charlotte Mack (Nedra Dillingham) who is Selma ' s rival in the contest; George Robinson (Jack Trommater), Lula Mae ' s brother, who holds the key votes of the contest in his hands; and Annie (Doris Nielson) a somewhat slow- thinking maid. The play proved a great success due to the cooperation of the cast and a capable director, Miss Vaughn.

U hn jyage fifty-six JlAe U AtiZ JUNIOR PLAY Mama ' s Baby Boy was a farce in three acts, in which an attractive widow of forty (Mona Mack) had her eighteen-year-old son, Shep (Carl Nichols) dress as mama ' s baby boy of thirteen, so she might appear younger and marry the supposedly wealthy widower, Mr. Long (Edward Hawley). Likewise Mr. Long tries to appear younger by having his seventeen-year-old daughter (Pauline Grate) dress as twelve, so he might marry the supposedly wealthy widow. Neither had a cent and amusing complications arose when each tried to conceal his poverty and the real ages of his off-spring. The craze to appear youthful spreads to the grandmother (Lois Martindell) and the colored maid (Betty Jane Doty), who appeared in ridiculous youthful attire. To teast Shep, his friends, (Ward Nelson and Mary Mitteer) and his jealous girl friend (Dorothy Pugsley) also dressed as kids, and came over to A climax was reached when the widower ' s sister (Kathleen Rcx:he) revealed the decep- tion on both sides. However, it ended happily when they plan to marry anyway; the salesman (Nick Hardiaris) buys Mrs. Mclean ' s land, and a romance is born between the children. The play was a success due to the faithful efforts of the director, Miss Gibson, and the cooperation of the cast.

This year the 7th annual Hart High School Carnival was held on April 5th and 6th. After some of the outstanding carnivals that we have had in the past it seemed doubtful whether we could put on a carnival that would surpass all others in the amount of money earned as well as the quality of entertainment. This carnival topped all others in every department. The coronation ceremony was as in the past the most impressive feature. Les Wy- ckoft, Jr., was heralded as the king, while Ruth Morat made a very charming queen. Others in the queen ' s court were Nedra Dillingham, Mildred Campbell, Lola Mae Fuller, Bonnie Beadle, Alice Jane Winget and Charlotte Hart. George Powers per- formed the coronation. Some of the different concessions included: Radio City, Harmony Hall, Bingo, Fish Pond, Hobby Show, Art Gallery, Telegraph, Tom Thumb Golf, Dart and Cane game, Dog House, Kook ' s Karnival and the Main show. Money earned from the Carnival goes toward many things for the benefit of the whole school, such as moving picture films, assembly programs, the athletic program and many other things. For the second year the show was efficiently managed by Jasper Olendorf.

The squad lost its blocking back at the beginning of the season when John Matulis had his leg broken in scrimmage. The season opened with St. Marys at Hart. Although in position to score at times the Pirates were unable to follow up their advantages and the game ended o-o. The next week the Pirates invaded Scottville and began to show plenty of power in their running attack. One of the highlights of the game was the perfect blocking that enabled the veteran Stevens to gallop 72 yards for a touchdown. The whistle ended the game in Hart ' s favor 18-2. Montague was our ne.xt visitor and the Pirates took them to camp by a score of 7-0. The next week the Pirates journeyed to Manistee to play their first game under the lights. The game was played in a driving rain before a big crowd that stayed to see the game in spite of the downpour. In the first quarter the tricky offense of Manistee gave them a 6-0 lead, but in the second quarter the Pirates offense began to gather steam and they rolled up 6 points making the score 6 all. The ball game ended with the ball still in Hart ' s possession on Manistee ' s 4 yard line. Hart 6 Manistee 6. Finals in track — below — Levi Ducolon in first place.

The next game was played at Preemont in another rain on a clay field that made run- ning exceptionaly hard. It was in this game that some of the new additions to the team proved themselves by playing a prominent part in holding the powerful Packer backfield to a 12-0 score. The Pirates next entertained the powerful Norsemen. The team played an outstanding ball game the first half and the Norsemen were lucky to come off the held at the half a 6-0 lead. The game ended Muskegon i8 Hart 7. The last game was with our traditional rival, Shelby. The pirates started out strong and pushed the Tigers ail over the field, but the second half saw an inspired Shelby team turn the tables and even the score at six all. The last quarter was nip and tuck all the way with neither team making any points, so the score remained Hart 6 Shelby 6.

Then on December 8 the team went south to engage North Muskegon in a war of basketball. The Pirates turned the tables and, with two last-minute field goals, won 24 to 22. Then Whitehall invaded Hart and, although the Pirates came out on the long end of a 40 to 29 score, the game was a thriller. Hart took on Manistee next and came out on the long end of a 29 to 14 score. January 9, after the holidays, the boys got down to business and took a surprised Scottville team 44 to 18. Then the Pirates played a return bout with North Muskegon and, not being handicapped by a short gym. trimmed the Norsemen 41 to 24. Then on January 19, after the dust had cleared away from the Pirates invasion, the Montague Wildcats found themselves on the short end of a 47 to 19 score.

Track is an individual sport, and those who are not suited for team games, such as basketball and football, may be very successful in track. None of the boys are made to take part in any event that they dislike. An inter-class meet is planned for April 19 so that new students may participate and find the event that best suits them.

We have five cheerleaders this year. They are Nedra DiUingham, AHce Jane Winget, Seniors; Kathleen Roche, Evelyn Olsen, Juniors; and Betty Verschueren, Sophomore. The cheerleaders have attended every game at and away from home. They have in- troduced several new yells with success. Special pep-meetings were staged for the big games to arouse the spirit of the student body and made them more interesting to attend. Kathleen and Evelyn are new to the work this year, but are deserving of all the credit given them. We are sorry to lose Nedra and Alice Jane, as this is their last year of cheer- leading for Hart High School. With parting words, Keep up the good work you have done in helping to build up good sportsmanship, we leave you.
