The wrecking of the old red building was started last spring and during the summer the construction work got well under way. Perhaps the most important event during the summer of 1930 was the laying of the corner stone on July 17. Some of the articles placed in the stone were: Two copies of the Hastings Banner, telling about the proposition before and after the vote was taken, a copy of the Fortnight annual, a picture of the old red building, a list of teachers of the public schools, and a picture of the Board of Education. Mr. VanBuskirk also placed a lxx k on general science and economics in the stone. The entire week of February second to seventh was devoted to the opening of the Central building. The Rotarians were the first to use the new auditorium, pre- senting the annual Rotary Minstrel show. On February fifth, the formal dedication was held and on February sixth and seventh, the dedication pageant was presented by the grade pupils. The school board is to be commended for the efficient way in which they have planned the erection of the Central building. 10 FORTNIGHT ANNUM. 1931 School Administration FOR TNIGH T ANN U AI 11 1931 Faculty Front Row, left to right: Miss V.

The local gridders won seven and lost one out of a total of eight games. In conference competition Hastings won five games, scoring 147 points to its opponents’0, and lost none to tie with Coldwater for first place in the Little Thirteen league.

Playing brilliantly and consistently, Hastings High basketeers finished their most exceptional season in years, winning the championship of the Little Thirteen league and also the district tournament. The locals won 11 out of 14 games, triumphing over strong teams like Marshall, Katon Rapids, and the Alumni. They lost to Allegan, Alma Frosh. and were down- ed by Catholic Central in the regional tournament at Grand Rapids. Aside from the number of games won, this was an especially marked season due to the fact that Charlotte was defeated three times by the locals, and even the Alumni were humbled, a feat which has not l een accomplished for some years. Wilcox, Young, and Miller were lost to the squad at the end of the second se- mester. and their loss was felt greatly but Boswer, Chase and Pierson Idled their places in a creditable fashion. Co-captains were elected for the first time this year, Alfred Williams serving for the first semester, and Dwight Fisher, for the second. Both were excellent captains and led their team through a long and difficult schedule. The players who saw the most action were: Wilcox, Williams, Young, Fisher, Miller, Chase, Pierson, Bowser, and Finstrom. A summary of the season follow 's: II. H. S. 16 Alumni 16 II. H.

Although falling considerably short of the records made by the strong team which represented Hastings a year ago, a comparatively green team under the di- rection of Coach Hawthorne, came through to win third place in the regional track meet, and to fulfill expectations this year. A feature in the team’s accomplishment was found in the consistent performance of “Alf” Williams in his favorite event, the high jump. He first exhibited his skill during a quadrangular meet, which included Charlotte, Howell, Coldwater, and Has- tings as contenders. A week later he came through to set a record of 5 feet, 9 inches and finally annexed a state class B record when he again cleared the bar at 5 feet, 9 inches. Capt. Gardner represented in the 100 and 220-yard dashes proved to be a sure point winner, and was one of the main reasons for his team’s placing third at Kalamazoo. Other outstanding performers who competed for the last time included Wayne Williams, Lauren Edger, Louis Havens, and Darrel Hall. The newcomers who show future prospects are James Osos, Charles Furniss, Nelson (iardner, Roy Finstrom, and Dwight Chase. 1931 FORTNIGHT ANNUAL 37 Girls’ All Star ‘Team Front Row, left to right: N.

The Senior girls’ basketball squad earned the honor of representing Hastings High school as the honorary team of 1931. They won every game they played this year. Last year, there was an all-star team which was picked from all the class basket- ball teams. This year more enthusiasm was shown anti more turned out for basket- ball. so it was decided by Miss Theo Parr, director of girls’ athletics, to have the honor go to the winning basketball team rather than to select an all-star team. Fhe personnel of the honored squad is as follows: Ida Schwartz (captain), Alice Hackney, Marie Beverwyk, Nelda Cool, Dorothy Field, Agnes Howard.

Nice-President Secretary Treasurer Second Semester Alfred Williams 1'helma Kantner Alice Hackney Evelyn Johnson The Student-Faculty association was organized in 1927. The council was composed of the meml ers of the Student-Faculty council and the Finance asso- ciation. To promote the highest type of relationship between the student body and the faculty, to consider problems related to the welfare of the school, and to supervise the management of all interscholastic activities is the three-fold purpose that the Student-Faculty council has succeeded in carrying out for the past four years. As in previous years the 19,41 council is composed of the four class presidents, a representative from each organization in the high school, the dean of girls, the as- sistant principal, an adviser appointed from each class, and the director of physical education. An additional member was added at the beginning of the second se- mester, a representative from the Fortnight staff. Chief among its accomplishments this year were the annual Spotlight, the high school banquet, the first mixer of the year, Clean-up Day, and the Water ( ar- nival. Besides promoting these events, the council financed the sending of repre- sentative groups to contests and conventions. Fortnight With Margaret Merrick as editor, Thelma Kantner, business manager, and William Schader, advertising manager, staunchly aided by the other twenty-seven members of the journalism class, the F'ortnight made its bi-weekly appearance last fall, under the advisership of Miss Esther Baldwin. On November 10. Miss Bald- win resigned to become Mrs. Holderman, and her position was filled by Mrs. Bernice I )ecker. At the beginning of the second semester, Margaret Cdadstone replaced Margaret Merrick as editor. The news and advertising staff remained unchanged except for the addition of seven members, newcomers to the class. Two special 8-page editions of the Fortnight were published this year, one just before the Christmas holidays and the other at commencement time. During the first semester, 90 different firms and business houses had ads in the Fortnight, while during the second semester 89 firms advertised. Special attention was paid to the editorial column this year with the hope of improving the quality of the editorials and making them comply more closely to journalistic standards. Many cuts were run during the year including several of the athletic teams, the new school, valedictorian, and salutatoriam 42 FORTN I (. 11 T AN NI AL 1941 Givis' League Board Front Row, left to right: li.

Among its achievements are the purchasing of new song books to be used in the girls' assemblies, the sponsoring of an April Fool party, and the entertaining of the freshmen girls at a reception, each semester. The league, organized in 1925, is a self-supporting organization, earning money by cake sales sponsored by the various units, and by a Christmas card sale during the holiday season. Every girl automatically becomes a member of the Girls’ league as she enters high school and, through the Big and Little Sister association, is made to feel at home. The purpose of the league is the furthering of a better spirit of friend- ship anil co-operation among the high school girls. Boys’ Union Council President Cranston Wilcox Secretary Glenn Kahler Treasurer Kenneth Biddle Sergeant-at-Arms Leland Jones Adviser—Mr. All ert Becker. The Boys' union, which is composed of all the boys in high school, was formed in 1928. The purpose of this organization is to discover hidden talents and to create a more uniform social fellowship among the boys. The Boys’ Union council is the executive head of the Boys’ union and consists of a representative from each class, the Hi- , ( ongress club, the Safety Patrol, the football squad, and the basketball squad. The officers are the president, secretary, treasurer, anil sergeant-at-arms. This council provides programs for the several meetings of the Boys' union held every month, and also for the annual meeting at which the boys entertain the girls.

In order to provide training for students in the different phases of public speaking and parliamentary law, Congress club was organized in 1923. All applicants for meml ership are required to pass the vote ol a committee before they are voted upon twice by the group as a whole. The organization and procedure of the club are like that of the Congress of the United States. F.ach memlier represents a state in the union, and a speaker directs the discussions. Many interesting lawsuits have been conducted and congressional meetings have been held at which bills, recently taken up by the Congress of the United States, w ere discussed. President Vice-President Secretary Treasurer Hi-Y Darrel Hall I .eland Jones Robert New ton Cranston W ilcox Adviser—Mr. Albert Becker Hi-Y, a leading club of Hastings high school, has been doing exceptional work this year. Its fifteen members are carrying out their slogan, “( lean speech, clean scholar- ship, clean athletics, and clean living.” These lx ys are under the advisership of Mr. A. Becker and C. F. Angell, known to the Im vs as “Dad.” The purpose of the Hi-Y is to create, maintain and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of ( hristian character. Meetings are held regularly every Tuesday noon in the high school cafeteria. Members of the Hi-Y have attended conferences at Bay City and C harlotte. Three of the boys accompanied C. F.

Under the direction of Miss Eleanor Edger and Mr. Theodore Knopf, the Ag club has had an unusually successful year. The purpose of the club is to promote the business, science, and art of agriculture and home economics, and to provide for its members business, social, and intellectual improvement. The Ag club was organized in 1920. It was limited to a membership of sixty, thirty girls and thirty boys. To be eligible to join the club a student must come from a rural district or be studying either an agricultural or home economics sub- ject. New members may be taken in each semester. The Ag club has two parties a year, one each semester. During this last year, it sponsored the Ag-He which was the finest exposition Hastings ever produced. According to B. A. Walpole, of Lansing, our entries totaling 756 set a state record for expositions. The Ag club also sponsored the movie, “Byrd’s Expedition to the South Pole. During club hour, which comes the first Monday of every month, programs have been prepared and given after the regular business meetings were held. Movies have been shown during this time. 48 FORTNIGHT ANN UAL 1981 Dramatic Club Front Row, left to right: M. Menton, F. Wendell, B. Wilcox, Miss R. Robson, T. Kelley, T. Rogers, H. ('lark.

This, together with The Beau of Bath, a one-act play in rime, was presented before the Teachers’ club. The Dramatic (lull, organized since 1922, has always endeavored to promote a greater appreciation of, and a more desirable attitude toward the theater. At its monthly meetings during the past year, the club has held discussions of current plays and has studied the art of makeup. An interesting feature of their work has been the study of the mechanics of the stage. The club has made several trips to the stage in the Central building. The annual play of the Dramatic club, which was to lie “Much Ado About Nothing, was not presented this year because of the condition of the times.

Orchestra After a lapse of two years, when Mr. Woodruff left the school, the orchestra was again started in the fall of this year, under the leadership of Mr. Overley. The orchestra has had a very profitable season, playing at school functions and on other occasions. Some of its most popular pieces are: The North Wind, a march, and “The Spanish Dance” and The White Queen, two waltzes. There are sixteen pieces in this organization at the present time but Mr. Overley plans to increase this number considerably next year.

It meets the sixth hour on Tuesdays and Thursdays. The boys, in conjunction with the Girls’ Glee club, put on the operetta, “Christina of Greenland.” 4 Although there are only a few members, the club has made surprising progress which is shown by the great number of appearances. Miss Frances Hunter has been the director, and Virginia Potts, the accompanist of the club. This is the first year that the club has been in the form of an organization. Don- ald Goucher is the president, Collier Rearick, vice-president, Reid Bassett, the sec- retary and treasurer. Girls' Glee Club Thirty-six girls comprised the Girls' Glee club, which was directed by Miss Frances Hunter this year. The club elected the following officers: president, Priscilla Brooks; vice-president, Virginia Potts; secretary, Agnes Smith; treasurer, Helen Wilson. The members have sung at the Teachers’ institute, Junior High assembly, and the Boys’ and Girls’ assembly. Included among the songs which they have sung this year are: “Fallen Leaf,” “The Morning Has Wings,” “Boats of Wine,” “A Big Brown Bear,” “Galaway Piper,” and “Dawn.” Besides the Glee club, there was organized a trio consisting of Virginia Potts, Maye Smelker, and Verlan Linington. This trio has sung at different clubs in town in assemblies, at churches, and at the Teachers’ institute. 56 FORTNIGHT ANNUM. 1931 French Club Adviser—Miss Grace Clark An unusual feature of the French club which was organized the first semester in 1930, is that no officers are elected. Miss Grace ( lark fills the position of president and adviser to the organization. Meetings have been devoted to a study of the works of French artists, painters, and writers, and many interesting speeches were given during the year. The mem- bers learned French songs and sang them. There are now eleven members in the club which is in its first year. Those who belong are as follows: Earl Boulter, Frances DeMott, Richard Green, Oscar Hall, Madeline Matteson, Gertrude Price, Mildred Rayner, Ruby Royer, Robert Schille- man, Agnes Smith, and Blanche Springer. The Chess Club President Secretary Treasurer Nelson Gardner Jacob Miller Lucille Willitts Adviser—Mr. Wesley Logan. Youngest among the school organizations is the Chess club, which, although newly organized this semester, is one of the most progressive clubs in high school. The club meets during noon hours and plays chess under the supervision of Mr. Logan and his assistants who already know something about the game. Thirty members took part in the club’s tournament. Those who lost in the first two rounds entered the second tournament. The participants were: Vernon Wininger, Howard Newton, Jacob Miller, Lynn Perry, Roliert Angell, Nile Fancher, John Hewitt, Louise LyBarker, Dennis McIntyre, Charlie Thuston, Lynden Hayes. Ian Ironside, Richard Brower, Gerald Stanton, Lucille Willitts, Hubert Mead, Beth Haven. Those who played in the quarter finals were: Hubert Follick, Norval Stamm, Gerald Smelker, Charlie Rose, Merle Utter, and Nelson Gardner.

Glenn Kahler, Helen Weaver, Irene Cooper, Robert Newton, Roy Heath and Harold Perkins comprised the debate team this year. I he question debated was: “Resolved, that the national chain grocery stores operating in the state of Michigan are detrimental to the people of that state. Of the four State League debates held during the year, two were lost and two won. The first debate with South Haven was won unanimously; the second with Grand Rapids South was lost by a two to one decision; the third with Allegan was lost, and the fourth with Grand Rapids Christian was won by a unanimous decision. Many other debates were held during the year with schools of neighborhood towns and cities, and the debaters have been especially active in giving exhibition debates this year. Herbert Cooper took first place in the annual declamation contest, his speech l eing “A Vision of War, by Ingersoll, and Loyd Freeman, who won the declamatory contest in 1929, received first place in oratory, his oration being “Our Magic Carpet. Accordingly, these two boys went to Grand Rapids to participate in the sub-district contest, where Her! ert Cooper placed first and Loyd Freeman, fourth. At the dis- trict contest at Holland, Herlrert Cooper was ranked fourth. In extempore speaking. Helen Weaver was given first place in the elimination contest. At the sub-district contest at Allegan she placed fourth. Oratory, Declamation and Extempore Speaking Left to right: II. Cooper, Declama- tion-, H. Weaver, l-'xtempore .Speaking-. Mr. A.

Band memliers may lie distinguished by their attractive blue and gold uniforms purchased this year. The uniforms consist of dark blue jersey sweaters with gold emblems, blue trousers and caps. Although somewhat smaller than the organization of last year, this year's band has been very active. It made its first appearance at the Charlotte football game and it has played at all of the home basketball games, at the dedication of the new Central school, during several plays, and at some of the assemblies.
