But listening not to those who were vanquished in the strife, We know we will he victors on the battlefield of life. Then perhaps in some far-distant misty, future age We ll find our glowing record, and reading page by page Discover that this prophecy which was so long foretold, I las reallv been, in truth, our futures’ very mold. J Each person’s aspirations have completely been fulfilled, And Hving armv students bv Norm Adair are drilled. n While little Ella Armour working harder than before, Now manages and operates her own department store. Conscientious Warren Askew, who labored once at I ledges, Gained great renown in science analyzing hamburg wedges. The mystic cards before us,and here’s the news they tell: A famous aeronautic star is our own Murney Bell. Let's draw the curtain wider and find this great sur- priser. In neon lights, I I. Carlson, Business Advertiser. We sight a lovely citv on yonder distant hill O J J J And arriving at a festival we each receive a thrill. We’re escorted to a banquet and told to cat our fill. For Bankers Laurscn, Don and Bud, are paying for the hill. And there’s a champion golfer, Ken Cloutier before a throne, A nodding and a bowing in a sweet mysterious tone n o At the fairest of the beauties, a star of the silver screen; It’s Millie Bidigare, our one time I ligh School queen. A shivering galaxy of notes so wonderful and so fair, O O We turn our eves unconsciously, and in amazement stare At Audrey Weeks, the artist who plays with rhythm rare, A while we linger in the past, and hear Bing Crosby’s voice, But here we find Art Chaney's the people’s only choice. Because of the efficiency of a certain Chinese joss, Miss Margaret Carlson, secretary, has up and wed the boss. Then venturing down a highway covered with a gold veneer. We see a sign whose letters proclaim to far and near I bis dainty trail constructed by J. II. I lorner, engineer, As a monument to Cupid. I Iere people dwell in houses white And never once are tempted by the strength of Renos might. We see our old time sweethearts behind those shutters blue. Earl L x p, Ruth Taylor married, and Vera Clark is, t x . Mamie Werbicky, visited by Minerva in her dreams I las found her matrimonial, at least that’s how it seems. In the democracies of old. there was a world of graft. But justice here is free, my friends, because of one Grace Craft. Of late her work has suffered a most severe retarding Because of the election of Senator J x.' I larding. While standing at the court house we’re passed up by a racer, Our speed queen, Anita Christenson, dares all the men to chase ’er. Donald Weigandt, one time friend of Stalin, Is now one of Mr. Richard’s callin . And here the sun glows warmly on a silent, quiet spot. Also we find a-slumbering ambitious Wesley Watt And partner, Jim Vennard, is vanquishing all foes By controlling even interests in the sale of women s clothes. A clear soprano voice that comes winging from afar, Announces Bernice I kill, the latest opera star. Bill Trcthaway publishes fxxiks of humor really droll; Remember how he used to argue about the price of coal? Our little Phyllis McDonald, who used to make hearts pop. At present it’s the mannikins in her successful shoppe Who produce chapeaux and dresses, the real cream of the crop. Our quiet Elizabeth I lavton, who became salutatorian, Went on to college and became a recognized historian. That smiling, blushing girl you see was our Irene Fair- hurst, But now her place in one man’s heart will never be but first. Winifred England was a friend in whom you might confide. Perhaps thats why she’s famous and now a happy bride. In the center of the city there stands a monument Erected to a man to whom great happiness was sent. A magician, I loward C x pcr, who of Powers loves to boast. Is haunting Miss McCully in the nature of a ghost. So. people, do not be the ones to ask in mute surprise. Where is this fair city where failure never flies? What must one do to reach its portals up yonder in the skies? It’s simpK this, We build the ladder by which we rise.’’ Page thirteen The Viking JUNE 1940 CLASS WILL We. the Senior Class of 1940, being on this day and this day only, in a sensible and sober state of mind, do hereby will the valuables, and otherwise, we have acquired during four years within this intellectual insti- tution to you and you.

BIOLOGY CLUB The purpose of the Biology Club is to provide a way for members of the Science Department tak- ing biology to further their studies in that branch of science. The annual B I lop was sponsored by this organ- ization on October 13, and later a roller skating party was held. The club holds an emblem dinner at the end of each semester at which time emblems are presented to all club members who have won them during the past semester. Membership is limited to people who have taken or are taking biology. The club t x k several field trips during the year; the program committee secured slides and lectures for the regular meetings. The main activity of the group this year was the Variety Show which was sponsored in May. Members of the Biology De- partment helped prepare the biological portion of the program and the exhibits that were presented at the P. T. A. program which was sponsored by the Science Department.

CAMERA CLUB The Camera Club was formed in an effort tc increase interest for photography among the stu dents and faculty of the 1 lazel Park I ligh School and to provide them with a useful, as well as inter esting extra-curricular activity. Several members of the club have gone into photography as a hobby. At each monthly business meeting, the program comittee presented a set of slides and a lecture. The outstanding piece of equipment bought this year was a large Federal Enlarger which makes some fine work possible by the group. The en- larger, along with a camera, an Argus C-3 with photo-finish attachment, make up the major part of the club’s equipment. The club sponsored a Winter Scene’ photog- raphy contest in January and a Scavenger 1 lunt contest in April. In this contest, open to everyone in school, the object was to secure a picture of the same subject as the contest pictures. All contest pictures were taken in 1 lazel Park and were not labeled.

DEBATE TEAM I Ik purpose of the debate team is to promote an interest in debating and allied subjects. For three years I lazel Park has taken an active part in the Michigan Forensic League. Early in the fall the students started work on the question, Resovled: That the Federal Government should own and operate the railroads. Hazel Park had the negative side with Lincoln Park and Pontiac and the afhirmative with Ann Arbor and Lincoln o! Van Dyke. Starting the year with unseasoned ■TV .v V. j s debaters, the varsity team made good showings against all opponents, even though the four league debates were lost. All members t x k part in a tournament which was held at Rochester in December. The junior team, organized for the first time this year, proved very valuable, three of its members being placed on the first team. Besides providing an interesting extra-curricular activity, it gives the participants an opportunity to get experience in public speaking. • 'V t f • 4 .. tt . •'w •_ ' ' • V • twenty-eight The Viking Row One: McArthur.

GIRL RESERVES During the past year, the Curl Reserves have again tried to live up to their purpose, ‘ 10 find and give the best,” by taking an active part in school activities. One of their first activities was serving for the football banquet; on December 5, a one act play, “I lappy Ending, was given for three assemblies; in the latter part of December, the girls made dresses for the Needlework Guild, and some of the garments were put on display at the downtown Y.W.C.A.; a bake sale, held at Loft's I lardware, gave members of the club some experience in sales- manship. At the beginning of the new semester, there was much activity in the club because of the Barn Dance which came on February 9. Plans were made to entertain the Berkley and Fast Detroit Girl Reserves. A Hi Y-Girl Reserve dinner dance was held in May. Late in the spring, the girls again modeled the latest fashions for their mothers and guests. Page twenty-nine The Viking Row One: Perrault. Young.

THE HI-MASQUERS The 1li Masquers Club, the dramatics organiza- tion of the Hazel Park High School, has two primary aims: To give experience in all phases of dramatic production to interested students, and to present wholesome entertainment for other students and patrons of the school. This year the club presented as their opening production “The Mallory Case.” “Wings of the Morning' was chosen for the second performance, and the humorous selection, “Pecks Bad Boy, ended the season. All-school plays produced during the year arc the responsibility of the I fi-Masquers, but parts arc open to anyone who wishes to try out. Membership in the cluh is limited to forty; those who have worked on plays are admitted as vacancies occur. Efforts are made to give as many students as possible the privilege of participating in plays. Funds derived from the productions arc invested in stage equipment.

HI-Y I he purpose of this organization is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian Character. The 11 i Y has shown its worth in our sch x)l by working to establish a finer outlook, both for the members and students. Many perplexing problems of the modern youth have been examined. In November three hoys were sent to the older hoys’ conference in Flint. During the football season the I Ii Y sponsored pep rallies, and gave the annual Football Banquet in December. A pennant sale was promoted to send representatives to the Hi Y camp in the summer. A Sponge Dance was sponsored in December, and the honor of second place in the Variety Show was bestowed on this organization. New members were initiated in February at a meeting conducted by a group from the North western High School who presented a very im pressivc service. A style show of men’s fashions was presented in March. Page thirty two The Viking Row One: Taylor R.. Styles. Hall. Miss Powers, Naas. Tingley. De George. Clark. Row Two: Warren. Tarpinian.

The staff aids in any work con- nected with the library, such as assigning books to students, mending b x ks, and keeping a record of daily readers. Library work also gives assistants ✓ O experience in filing and preparing new books for class room use and for the library shelves. I he library was begun about 15 years ago when O o the high school was still at Lacey School. The library has increased steadily, until it now has j1 over 4,100 volumes. Although the library is small, u ; it contains adequate material to meet most of the requirements in the line of reference, fiction, and non-fiction books. Money collected on overdue fxx)ks is used to buy library material. The library strives to serve stu dents and faculty at all times. Last year inspectors from the University of Michigan rated the library very high as compared to other such institutions in the state. Page thirty-five The Viking Row One. Dunlop. Ross. Klingensmith.
