The address was in observance of National Education Week. To The Board of Education Dedicated to those three men who themselyes exemplify the true ,spirit of democracy through whole-hearted service to the commun- ity, their only compensation being a conscious- ness of good citizenship, well performed.

Wrighi Humanity and efficiency blend with a truly democratic spirit to make up the man whose record speaks for itself more eloquently than words can be assembled to pay him tribute. Student Council YMBOLIC of the democratic spirit which pervades the Highland Park Schools is the Student Council. The 14 students who make up this organization repre- sent their home rooms individually and the entire stu- dent body as a Whole. Having been elected student HAROLD EPLING president, Harold Epling automatically serves as presi-- . President dent of the council. Clement Shackle and Bette Bur- ! f ' . . . gf M rell are vice-president and secretary, respectively. Each Fri a these re resentatives meet with Su erintendent Wvri ht to talk over and Y P P g pass action on various school problems. All-School parties, recreation hours, pay assem- blies, and other forms of recreation, such as noon dancing, are sponsored by the group- Sqince the entire student body has an opportunity to give viewpoints on problems vital to them, they receive training for good citizenship in later life. It is democracy in action on a small but important scale. Left to rightili. Halbert, B. Coffman, F. Young, H. Sharrai, E. Baker, T. Allen, C. Shackle, L. Cheatwood, Superin- tendent Wright, B.

An attractive girl with a combination of en- thusiasm, sparkle, and a ready smile for everyone, Virginia has been one of Highland Park's most ac- tive students during her four years in high school. Always around when there is a job to be done, never leaving until the task is finished, she is more than deserving of her many honors. 10 I4lNQ HAROLD EPLING Such popularity must be deserved. A friendly fellow and a staunch supporter of school activities, Harold Epling has been in Highland Park schools since the first grade. Always an asset to the several organizations of which he is a member and a leader in sports, he has been doubly honored this year, having been elected student president and, by vote of Highlander purchasers, king of the annual. Harold Epling will graduate an individual of out- standing achievement and a popular personality. 11 fy tw X , ,il Nerls working on 'Lnosc ncwlsu . . . Serious liusiness . . .

Realizing this, the seniors are glad that during the past twelve yea1's, they have been privileged to study and grow under a Star Spangled Banner which symbolizes a country wherein edu- cation for the masses is considered es- sential if freedom is to stand. Highland Park School has become a real part of every student who has ever sought education in her halls and class- 1'ooms. Nine of the members of the 1941 senior class started their first year of grade school in the Highland Park Schools and have been classmates ever since. These old settlersn are: Barbara Ann Bartels, Ethel Dahlstrom, Sanford Myze1', Roberta Shimer, Marjorie Stitt, Harold Epling, Raymond Lusco, Julia Hamilton, and Wayne Fowler. ln 1937, a banner year for the Scotties both in music and sports, the class entered their first year of high school. Mr. Ralph Dellinger and Miss Ruth Weavei' were chosen by the class as sponsors for the freshman year. Miss Golda Crawford and Mr. Francis Carpenter served as sponsors during sophomore and junior years. Something really different in plays was given when the class as juniors presented wllhe Hoosier Schoolmastern under the direction of Miss Glada Strode. Complete with pre-Civil Wai' costumes, crude Hoo- sier language, and real character acting on the part of the large cast of 27 members, the play was presented to a full house. Outstanding also in the history of the class was the 1941 junior-senior prom. Under the direction of Miss Crawford, sponsor, and Lois Cheatwood, president, a bold pirate theme enhanced by red and gold decorations was carried out. As seniors, the class has been honored by the selection of the president of the stu- dent body and the kings and queens of the carnival, '4Highlander, and sports from its members. Social activities for the year included two parties in the gymnasium and a picnic on Thursday of the last Week of school. Following Baccalaureate services on Sunday evening, May 25, Commencement exe1'cises will be held May 26 with Dr. James Chubb of Baker University as prin- cipal speaker. As the 1941 seniors, in tra- ditional caps and gowns, receive their diplomas, they go out with an inherent ap- preciation of the land of the free, equaled by a dogged determination to meet the challenge of proving it 'cthe home of the brave. 141 S? tm WCW' WW I ' NX of-P wwf ,M if SENIORS ELDON BURNETTE-Basketball 3, Football 3, 4, H Club 4, Track 3, 4.

NDER the direction of Miss Dorothy Black the Spot-light club gave a commendable presentation of the popular comedy, '6June Mad, a Whimsical analysis of the heart of a young girl. This play was a iitting climax to a year in which the club entertained with skits and one-act plays at various functions. Station Y.Y.Y.Y. was a one-act play presented at the November 19 musicale by Dolly Mollett, Mary Ann Bar- nette, Junior Zurhuchen, Donald Morriss, Ruth Morris, and Robert Kennedy.

The theme of the play centers around a very young girl of a typical American familv whose summer love, though painful, helps her to begin grow- ing up gracefully. acALMOST Eighteenf, a three-act comedy drama, was pre- sented by the junior class November 8. This story chronicles the disappointments and troubles that a well- meaning family carelessly bestows upon a lad whose reason- able eomfort depends upon the granting of honest wishes and the fulfillment of normal dreams. The play was directed by Miss Clada Strode. Junior Class Play 39 Zin memnriam igntnarh merits Snplynnn ure e!?Hm'ch Ili, 15125---jH1:ln'uarg 15, 1911.1 ATHLETICS X? 'A' Q 4 -K X -, 4 f l 2 'F 4 f ff!

ITH the graduation of nine seniors and several valu- able reserves, the 1940 edition of the Highland Scotties football team won but four games, losing six. Coach Christensenis crew played .500 ball until their rival game with Seaman, at which game they came out on the small side of the score, losing thirteen to ten. Parsons played a stalwart game, scoring all of Highland's points against Seaman. Harold Jones and Bob Knight were the honorary captains, both being standouts at their positions.

THE Scotties' basketball team was composed of seasoned players, but lacked the much needed height of past years. Bob Knight, Clement Shackle, Raymond Lusco, Harold Jones, Leonard Gilkeson, Marvin Gilkeson, Norman Jones, Jack Darrow, Bill Martin, and J ack Vigneron made up the first ten players. Highland rated fifth in their league, but they made a habit of giving their opponents a tough battle. Osage City pos- sessed a smooth working quintet and occupied the top slot. Upon Coach Christensen's February resignation, lVlr. Lynch, second team coach, took over the coaching reins. Basketball Top row-J. Lovell, J. Helm, D. Hessong, J. Darrow, R. Lusco, L. Lewis, R.

ITH training well under way, the track team is hoping for another Jayhawk League championship as the Highlander goes to press. As in every sport, Highland will miss its stars of yester- year, but of course, there is always new material coming into stardom. Coach Amos has a squad of thirty boys who should give some fine performances this spring. Loran Lewis in the quarter-mile and Raymond Lusco in the half- mile are two fellows who should score plenty of points for the Scotties. The Scots will compete in the Kansas Relays, Regional of State Meet, possibly State Meet, Jayhawk League Meet, and several other smaller contests. Track QQ 'i'xLX'C'F-YS. 1 X H 1. usi.
