Under the direction of Mrs. Hannigan, our class advisor, we presented a high school assembly, and a high school party, 'The Maypole Dance, and both were very successful. In our sophomore year we published 'The Banner' and sold the 'National Echo' with the help of Mrs. Hill, our advisor. Our class officers were: President, Gene Stanley, Vice-President, jerry Spencerg Secretary, Beverly Greiner, and Treasurer, Robert Iensen. Our class party was called 'The Pig and Whistle Hop, and was very successful. Our junior year was, however, the most exciting of all. Our officers were: President, Tom Lohmang Vice-President, Richard West, Secretary, Wallace Ienseng and Treasurer, Marge Howley. Our biggest project of the year was to earn money. We did this by selling Christmas cards, sponsoring the dime dances after all home games, and giving the annual junior play. The title was 'A Date With Judy, and due to the able direction of Mrs. Burdick was a huge success. However the most exciting event of the year was the I-Hop and it was well worth the time and effort we spend making it a success. CLASS ELECTION Best all Around. Most Handsome Boy. Prettiest Girl.

LaVearle Hershberger, Don McC1ennan, Mary Shinn, High Cum- mins, Helen Sills, Alex Andrulis, Eugene Schaner Sitting: Dorla Carr, Barbara johnson, Florence Robbins, Shirley Frost SALUTATORY In behalf of the Class of 1949 I extend a cordial greeting to all those gathered here tonight and bid you welcome. We have long awaited this occasion--and a memorable one it ls--for you, our teachers, parents, and friends, as well as for us who are graduating. Most of us have gone through four years of high school together, and some of us have been together since kindergarten days. Now we are parting. But as we part, we take many golden memories with us. There are some things we will never forget in the years to come, and some things we will always treasure, such as our first high school party, our junior play and our first Prom. Of course there are others, but these will probably be the best remembered. To our parents we pay special tribute for their many encouraging words and their acts of self-denial by which they have provided the means for our advancement. Without them, our efforts during the past four years would have been of no avail. To our teachers also we pay tribute, for their willingness to help us in every way possible in making our stay at Hart High profitable. Now you, Parents and Teachers, have finished your part. It is left to us to prove its worth, to test it. If we succeed, you have succeeded. Classmates, let's show them their job was well done. Again Parents and Friends, we extend to you a friendly welcome to our graduation exercises. Shirley Frost VALEDIC TORY Parents, Faculty, Board of Education, Classmates and Friends: We, the Class of 49', have reached a high climax in our lives. It is now up to us to prove that the time and encouragement given us by our parents and teachers was not in vain. When we were doubtful and discouraged, they were always at hand urging us toward higher goals. If it were not for their pa- tience and understanding, we would have ended with a smaller class. After tonight we will continue reaching out for more knowledge and better understanding of the world in which we live. We would like to thank the members of our Board of Education for selecting teachers that have an in- terest in the advancement of their pupils, for a well kept school with high standards which enables us to be better prepared for the futureg and also for a deep interest taken in our extra-curricular activities which are an important part of our education. I am speaking on behalf of my classmates and friends when I say, 'We are leaving behind the youth and galety of our school days with a sad heart. During the past four years we have formed many friend- ships which will be of great value throughout the rest of our lives. We have gone through many experi- ences together. These experiences have helped to form better friendships and for that reason we shall cherish the memory of those experiences forever. I believe that if you once make up your mind to do something, you will succeed in it, no matter how large the obstacle. To the classes we are leaving behind, perhaps our class motto, 'For they conquer who believe they can,' may prove a guide to help them to aspire to ever higher goals. To our Class of '49' may we always remember and believe in our motto and let it be an incentive continually leading us on to greater future successes. Florence Robbins VALEDICTORY Tonight marks the end of our four years of high school. For many of us it ls the end of all education. When we receive our diplomas, the door will close on this part of our lives forever. We cammot go back, even if we want tog we must go forward. Many of us will find the road a long rough one, full of rocks and boggy spots. We may wish we had studied harder and paid more heed to our parents and teachers, who were trying so hard to prepare us for the way which we must travel. But it is too late now to regret, we must forge on with what we have. There is no shame in doing small things. The shame is in not doing these things to the best of our ability. Going out into a dim, uncertain world, we are faced with the problems of the times. They are not so different from the problems which faced our parents and grandparents. We still have to have food, clothing, a home, and friends, a place for ourselves in this lonely world. Our biggest problem is the age old problem of World Peace. ' Will we be able to accomplish what our grandfathers could not? No one knows the answer, but everyone hopes for the end of war and strife. With each new generation the hope is renewed. The difference lies not in the problems, but in us, in the way we think and do things. Along the way we have added to our own personality a grain of knowledge, gained from the experience of those gone before us. Equipped with this store of knowledge, built up through the years and imparted to us by our long-suf- fering teachers, we are going forth with all the confidence of youth to conquer our place in the world, and to accomplish great things. So with the hope that we will not be a disappointment to either ourselves or to our friends, we wish to say Thank you and Farewell.

SENIOR CLASS STORY or THE A490 ERS ANDRULIS, ARCHER and ARMSTRONG started on a journey west in a DODDge CARR to visit the HODGES family. After they had gone a few miles they came to a road made of BR.ICKer which smashed the WHEELer. After a few days had gone by they reached the town of KOKX where MARIE, BERNARD, EUGENE and JOSEPH, the SCHANER family had made their residence. Days, weeks, and months passed when finally business places began to grow in the larger town of TAYLORville. The most important factories were the JOHNSON was company, LANGE pickle company, the SCHNEIDER catsup company, and theFULLER brush man who was busily going from door to door. He was forced to spend the night at the ELOISE state hospital, because lack FROST was knocking on the windows and a great HALE and GALE was coming up outside which broke the windows. The next day being Sunday all the towns people go to the WHEELER church with REVerand GOLLAND preaching. The church is a hugh affair with a double DECKER balcony. After church every one went to KRANTZ's restaurant for lunch, where they were served EverHAM and HERSHBERGER sandwiches and MILLER milk. After they finished eating they went to the famous MEISENHEIMER ranch for an afternoon of fun and entertainment, one of the features of the afternoon were ten WILDe GRAY horses, with a famous cowboy HOLDEN them from stampeding, The MEAD boys rode the fierce horses. Two dudes by the name of TROMMATER thought they would like to try and ride, they were bucked off and knocked out, they heard ROBBINS chirping loudly. A few hours later CURTIS and SCOFIELD went hunting, they shot a rabbit. It was out of season for shooting rabbits, so of course they were worried when they saw sher- iff LITTLEBRANT CUMMINS around the BEN. The sheriff, very HASTY went to a POSTama to REID the laws of hunting to these men. He told them they had better follow the STREIT and narrow path. So they went back to the ranch. They were tired so they laid down and beneath their head they had a pillow made of soft chicken FETTERS. Soon they heard someone HAMMERLE on the door. As they arose from the bed they bumped their Sl-IINN, they slowly got up again and'SAUNDERS over to the door. It was MADISON, a man from their town, said he, 'We are holding amature hour, why not come and see what you can do? When they got there who should be in the spotlight but LIPSKI doing a torchy balet. Next KLUDY did an imitation of ludy. PEARSON and REAMS, two jokers got up and told some jokes. Mc- CLENNAN and WILLIAMSON gave a boxing expedition as a result McCLENNAN got a black eye. The day was nearly over and they all had to be getting back to their homes. On their way they stopped at SMITHS drugstore for some ice cream.

Our prize was S15 in accessories. We, of the Banner Staff would like to thank every student in Hart High for his cooperation in making this year's Banner a success. DRAMATICS CLUB This year the Dramatics Club realized one of its much desired objectives, the establishment of a Thespian Society within the club. There are eight members from Hart High School in the society. These eight members have completed the hundred hours of superior work in dramatic art required of each member. On November 2nd and 3rd, the Dramatics Club and the senior class produced the three act play, The Imaginary Invalid. The Dramatics Club members did the greater part of the work on the costumes and on the stage set for this play. A few weeks later on December 3rd and 4th, the club produced 3 one act plays, Annie's Man, 'Elmer, and 'This Bull Are Nutmeg. The cast for Annie's Man' were: Ella Louise Budde, Caleb Halberg, Maxine Robbins, Marilyn Schneider, jack Wilhelm, David Vanden Heuval. The cast for E1mer': jerry Amstutz, Helen Carlson, Phyllis Hodges, Nancy Salisbury, David Lyon, Rose Marie Volpp, Phyllis Van Tassel. The cast for 'This Bull Ate Nutmeg : Bernard Golland, Iudy Wood, Richard Hodges, Jack Griener, and Reginald Madison. The proceeds received from these three plays were used to the debt acquired by the newly-purchased stage set. A radio skit, written by Ruth Martin and participated in by: Donna Ullrich, Ruth Martin, Bill Brick- er, Marie Herrygers, and Donna Ziegler, was produced in December. The club will attend the performance of Shakespeare's Taming Q t-hi Shrew to be given by the Muske- gon Senior High School on April 29. The club saw their performance of Our Heart's Were Young and Gay last fall and were very well pleased. It was entertaining and instructive from the stand point of act- mg. Among other club activities there has been the writing of one act plays and work on marionettes. We are planning to enter a one act play in the state contest at Mt. Pleasant this spring. The work of the club members is repaid by the experience obtained in dramatic art and by the half credit received for active membership.

DEBATE September 13, 1948, eight brave souls embarked on the high sea of dabate with our pilot, Mrs. Gillett, guiding us through the stormy seas. All members being new at debating made it necessary for us to study rules and procedure of debate for a time before we felt able to tackle the national debate topic, 'Resolved that the U. N. be changed into a Federal World Government. Early in the fall we were called on to help the speech class put on an assembly. We chose the topic, 'Re- solved that Hart High Boys have more privileges than the girls. This debate was well worked out by Dorothy Krantz and Caleb Halberg on the affirmative against Tom Lohman and Iean Robbins on the negative side. Next we journeyed to Muskegon Heights for a practice debate and later in the year they came here for practive de- bates. Fremont, our first contest opponent, failed to appear, giving us two debates to start with. November 23, Cedar Springs came here and won both debates. December 6, we sent to Sand Lake, where we won the af- firmative debate and lost the negative. January 6, Wyoming Park, Grand Rapids, came here again. We won one and lost one. By winning half, or four of our debates, we won a bronze plaque and it also qualified us to enter the elimi- nation contest in the Alma trounament on February 3, 1949. February 1, our cheer leaders called upon us to make an assembly appearance debating the topic, 'Re- solved that Hart High Maintains four cheer leaders. No discussion was made in this debate, but it got the facts before the high school. Thus ended the first part of our trip on the high seas. As the last half year rolls along we hope to take on more passengers to help us over the high waves of dramatic declamation, oratorical declamation orations, and extemporaneous speaking. 1 ,-1 , lil! I SPEECH Last fall two speech classes were organized to accommodate the forty-two people who for one reason or another elected this course. Again it was open only to sophomore, junior and senior people. Many of the colleges are asking on their application blanks for a course in speech. The hospitals also ask for it ln their applications. All business men are anxious for their applicants to have speech train- ing, so the course is set up as near as possible to fit a good public speaking program. Many short speeches are given in class. Stories and travel talks are given for the grades. Poems are copied and memorized. Literature of Classic, ledgendary and biographical nature is studied. Essays are written. Debates are carried on, on numerous subjects and monologues are given. g Early last fall several of our speech people participated in an assembly program. At Thanksgiving time all of us wrote on the state T. B. speech contest. Lewis Wilde received honorable mention on his essay which was in the form of a play. Lewis and Bernard Schaner gave the play on the Christmas as- sembly program. Nancy Salisbury told a Christmas story at the same Christmas assembly. During February and March we work on Dramatic Declamations for the state speech contest. The local contest will be held in class before March 15. The District contest will be hald in our Gym the fourth week in March, then if anyone of us win there we will go to Mt. Pleasant to compete in April. Many students who started the course in fear now think it is fun and use what they have learned to better their grades in other classes. The winners of the Dramatic Class Declamation contest are Sue Lipski, Anne Halloran, Arlon Wheeler Reglnal Madison, Williard Fetters, and Shirley Vavrina. The winners of the Dramatic School Oration contest are Ruth King and John Dillingham. The Extem- poraneous Speaker is Caleb Halberg. The winners of the School Oratory contest are Alex Andrulis, Bill Bricker and lean Robbins. I F. F. A. ,-.QF The year of 1948 and 1949 has been a very promising year for the Hart Chapter of the Future Farm- ers of America. The begimiing of 1948 brought increased membership up to the total number of eighty- three. fThis very clearly indicates the interest which the Agriculture boys of the Hart High School are showing toward their desire to become better farmers and better citizens.D As usual, the boys again exhibited the products of their farms at the Oceana County Fair and carried away many of the first prizes. We put on a very good exhibit of Duroc Jersey Pigs. The Agriculture boys received all of the prize money from the swine exhibits. We had a Father and Son Banquet in january in which we had a one hundred per cent participation. Mr Sheldon H. LaTourette of Hartland, Michigan was our guest speaker. In February we held our annual district contest which features public speaking, parlimentary procedure and demonstration teams. We gave our annual FFA High School party which was enjoyed by everyone. During the summer we had four picnics for our local club and their friends. We played basketball with the different chapters during the year. We had many field trips during the school year and we helped the farmers in the com- munity harvest their crops. We have also started a swine ring which we hope to be a success. This is the first year in which we had a point system, it works according to the amount of work you do. We planted more pine trees out at our plantation which is beginning to look swell. We have our cabin just about completed, but we have more plans to complete. In the near future we hope to have a roadside park along the highway by the Pentwater River. jerry Spencer won the Regional Presidential office and Mr. Tate is our Regional Advisor. Our offi- cers for this year are Willard Fetters, Presidentg Edward Postema, Vice President, Eugene Schaner, Secretaryg Don Eisenlohr, Treasurerg Adrian Hammerle, Reporterg and Normah Holden, Sentinel. We are planning a Regional FFA summer camp that will be held this summer at Stony Lake. This is the first Leadership Training Camp that has ever been attempted in this Region. We plan on a much better program for next year. VETERANS' INSTITUTE Lionel Tate, Gilbert Smith, Donald Cargill, Floyd Fox, Winston Lewis, Robert Loew. By solving the problem of providing instruction to returning war veterans under the G. I. Bill of Rights, Hart High School again showed it deserved its position as the foremost educational institution in Oceana County. As Oceana County is primarily an Agricultural area, it was only natural that the greatest demand for training should come from veterans interested in Agriculture. To meet this demand and perform a service to the community, be training better farmers and citi- zens, the Hart Veterans Institute, Agriculture Department was organized in july, 1946, under the direc- tion of Mr. W. Lionel Tate, Agriculture Instructor at Hart High School. Through the remaining months of 1946, the institute grew from one enrollee to fifteen and employed two part time teachers. As information of what was going on at Hart Veterans Institute filtered into outer areas of the county and the number of returning veterans increased, the demand for training outstripped the supply of teachers. As fast as teachers could be trained or trained ones were found, new enrollees were added, and by January of 1948 the enrollment had reached the maximum of 130 set for the institu- tion. The continued demand for this type of adult agricultural training insures this maximum enrollment for a period of approximately 6 years. The G. I. Class in Agriculture is primarily concerned with making the veteran a better farmer and a better citizen. The trainees are from all walks of life and have a wide education and financial range. They differ, too, in interests. Some are interested in fruit, some in dairy cows, others in marketable crops, or small aminal husbandry. They are taught a four year agricultural progra.m consisting of Soils, Dairying, Horticulture, Animal Husbandry, Farm Management, Farm Crops and Soil Conservation. However, each division, of which there are three, Fruit, Dairying, and General Farming, study the curriculum from the stand point of their individual interest. The veterans institute has been of service to the community through their support of community drives and the Farm Bureau and Farm Grange. They gathered the majority of the food for the Crop Program, and now they are interested in promoting a Soil Conservation District. The members serve on the AAA, School Boards, and hold Farm Bureau and Farm Grange offices. Their farms are the ones in the community where new, proven methods of farming, not only to in- crease crop yield but to conserve soil fertility and prevent soil erosion, are practiced. By demonstrat- ing to the community how to achieve 'better life through better agriculture' they serve you and their country again. Home ECONOMICS With the return of Home Economics department to our course of study eighty-three girls enrolled in these classes. Beginning with the construction of aprons for their laboratory uniforms they followed with breakfast and luncheon units in the beginning classes and dinner in the advanced class. During the year two of the highlights were the serving of the F.F.A. banquet and the planning, prepa- ration and serving of the Career Day's luncheon. Following the spring clothing unit the girls entertained their mothers with a tea and a style show at which time the girls modeled the dresses they had made. The making of cherry ples and the queen contest eliminations were enjoyed by the class. Nancy Jos- lin won as Oceana County Queen and represented us at Grand Rapids. This year a new class, Home and Family Living, was organized for Iunior and Senior girls. Many subjects dealing with coming marriageg family budgets, buying and consumingg baby careg etc. have been discussed in preparation for better living in the home. A Christmas time animals large enough for young children to ride were made. Pillowcases for hope chests were made as illustrations of simple things to beautify the home. The girls were entertained one afternoon at the home of their teacher with chocolate and cookies, a lesson in simple entertaining. The thirty girls in the group feel that the class has been one of the most worthwhile projects during their high school years.

To date two hundred seventy-five new books have been added to our high school library. More have been ordered and should be here by the end of the school year. Many of our new fiction books are 1948 publications ranging in price from 53.90 to 55.75. A Reader's Guide to Periodical Literature, Who's Who, 1948 World Almanac, twelve volumes of bound periodicals and several other non-fiction books are now on the shelves ready for reference use. We wish to express our gratitude to the Hart P.T.A. who have made possible the various additions to our library.

A. has been a very successful one under the leadership of Hubert Pengston as President. The membership is two hundred three. The programs planned by the Vice-president, Dr. Robinson, have been varied, informative and in- teresting. Some of the topics were proposed and accomplished changes in the building and in the cur- riculum by Supt. Hall: A world relations movie: A representative from the A.A.A. led an interesting discussion on Safety Patrols: Much interest shown in Cub and Boy Scouting resulted in the P.T.A.'s decision to sponsor each of these activities: An address by Dr. Ray Pellett, Dean of Men of Western Michigan College: An all school program consisting of music by the Bands, singing by the Girls' Glee Club and readings. A series of square dances in the Hart Gym, providing good social times, were well attended and the money thus raised was used to purchase books for the school library. Though the weather did not prove to favorable for the full enjoyment of the P.T.A. sponsored ice skating rink, all skaters, both young and old, did appreciate the Club's effort and made as much use as possible of the rink. Cub Scouting under the leadership of Ralph Griffin with Mrs. Olendorf, Mrs. Reeds, Mrs. Miller and Mrs. Ned Gillette acting as Den Mothers is well started and should have a very profitable year ahead. The Club has also sponsored the hot lunch program at school and Nancy Joslin as queen of Oceana County in the Cherry pie contest. HOT LU NCHES The hot lunch program this year has been very much appreciated by all the students. A new room was provided and equipped to serve as a hot lunch center. On the average about one hundred sixty pupils have been served daily with a hot dish, a sandwich or muffin and milk for a dime. The students give a vote of appreciation to our cooks, Mrs. Spencer and Mrs. Hanks, who have done such a splendid job.
