To earn the privilege of wearing an honor cord and receiving the honor pin, the student must have at least 4.0 or B standing. The class had two valedictorians-- Margie Schuepbach and Mar- ilynBoedicker who both had a 5.0 average. Linda Lou Lyon, the salutatorian, had a 4.9 standing.

As the warm weather set in you could hear the crack of the bats as the boys walloped the ball into the outfield and the thud of leather as a player plucked the apple out of the air. ?cz4eZczZZ Coach Ed. Hilbert 51 This year approxi- mately 30 boys went out for this sport. The team was composed chiefly of new players which may explain the team's slow start. Of the first seven games, the Bulldogs have won one and lost six. The team is coached by Ed. Hilbert. Q. 9' ' W .

As in previous years the Art Club accompanied by the Art Class visited the St. Louis Art Museum. Club members gave a group showing of the year's work for the benefit of the student body. At each meeting a member gave a talk about some famous painter and his paintings. R. Sautter, I. Staley, W. Loebel, D. Michemheimer. F. Braundmeier, E. Sayler. J. Iberg. Mr. Brumfield. H. Somraty, M.

Students were all allowed to dance on the stage and gym floor. The Student Council again had charge of the Homecoming and by pop- ular vote of the student body, revised the big event into a two night affair. All athletics were repre- sented by fifteen boys elected by the school's athletes. The maids were elected by the entire high school. A very fine savings program was set up by the Council whereby all stu- dents can accumulate. throughout high school, money for the Senior Trip and for college. As in past years, the Student Council helped se- lect the assembly program and helped with the Tuber- culin Testing Progra m. Mr. White, Sponsorg L. Diesen, Vice-Presi- dent, D.
