WILLIAM PHAHHEN You have given many years of service to our schools. You have brought us through wars, depressions, and prosperityg We salute you! You have always upheld the highest ideals of youth. You have shown us sympathy, generosity, and liberalism, we respect you. You have been kindly, understanding, and helpful. To you, Mr. Prakken, we dedicate this 1943 Polar Bear. W: ,Ml 3 I 7a Um? 7a 7 To You-graduates and undergraduates of the Highland Park High School in the war camps and training fields, on home soil or in foreign lands-we, the students and faculty, send pa- triotic greetings in this 1943 Polar Bear. Because your achievements have been an inspiration to us, We look to the future with faith and confidence knowing that the stand- ards of humanity and government which our homes and schools have taught us are not to be displaced by oppression and cruelty. Our school program is permeated with the War spirit. In pre-induction courses, Victory Corps, Red Cross, war bond sales, and scrap drives We seek to supplement your valiant con- tribution. y This is our confident assurance: a speedy victory, a rallying once more around the home fires, and a return to the peaceful pursuits so natural to a democracy.

The chances are that he will be harvesting vegetables in his garden. But his students will never forget Mr. Baker. They will always remember what a swell guy he was, how he would so thoroughly bawl them out, but they could never stay peeved at him. He was a modern person, for- ward looking, and up to the minute in his thinking. Mr. Baker claimed that if he hadn't been brought up on a farm he never could have been a teacher. If he hadn't, he would never have had such a huge supply of homely stories. Often times he would get sidetracked and tell one just for amusement's sake. When he thought the class needed straightened out, he told one with a moral. Many were just good examples, illustrating a chemistry or physics lesson. Since Mr. Baker is leaving, his secret can be told: he keeps his matches between the wall and the picture above his desk. IBB III.

O sooner had this year's Washington lVorkers climbed aboard their HP-43 than trouble set in. Those grim, gruesome grem- lins dusted out their bag of tricks and set to work spoiling things. The grems must have have decided to tackle the biggest and best thing first, for at the top of their sabotage list was the Mfashington Trip. They fixed things so there couldn't be any transportation, or hotel space, and then just sat back and laughed loud and long. Wlell, this hit the seniors pretty hard . . . that trip was the frosting on twelve years of cake. Then came an inspiration. YV ar Bonds! The seniors decided to take the money that would have gone for the trip and invest it in Victory. lVashington would just have to wait. t But it seems Mata Gremla had her agents everywhere. lfVhen the grems got word of this new development, they started to work, and bingo . . . out with the senior shop. No more cokes or candies or credits. Along about now the sen- iors started to look a bit on the harassed side . . . partly due to worry, and partly due to fewer seventh hours in the S.S. Even this did not stop the class, and they went on earning hours, wind- ing up the year by buying bonds galore-58,000 worth. Undaunted by the gremlins, the class spon- sored a travel-less Vfashington trip for Friday evening, May the fourteenth, which ended in a record dance at Hackett Field House. Assisting the class officers were Ed Matthews and Helen Howick as co-chairmen. Henry Dres- ser had charge of tickets, Bill Miller was chair- man of policing committee, and Alice Jane Rauch and Dick Cowles were publicity agents. All in all this year's class has had many set- backs, but they've met them with their chins up and have shown a determination to face things bravely. ll III. 55 UNIOR is Very busy this year.

Representative of this spirit are the officers guiding the class. They work away thinking that if this is high school, it's not so bad. Even with homework, they too find time lor part- time jobs and-love it. Then in the midst of this peaceful existence-wham- an exam! They are summoned into a study hall, often during a gym period, and find on their desks a ninety minute achieve- ment test awaiting them. This exam is to determine their intelligence and their mechanical and clerical aptitudes. Strangely enough, most of the stu- dents seem to enjoy struggling through this testg they appear to welcome the chance to prove their brilliance. Some sceptics, however, suspect that they also appreciate the chance to take an exam- without having to take home their grades.

At the bond rally Principal Wfilliam Prakken inspired the 1,700-odd Highland Parkers to pledge to sell 330,000 worth of Wlar Bonds in one month. At the spirited election rally, the voters met the nominees for their class offices and heard some genuine political campaigning. The Student Association also participated in other activities. It conducted the class elections. It managed the sale of Christmas and Easter seals, and it played a major part in breaking the Parker Hall bottleneck by securing an aux- iliary counter for the sale of ice cream and milk. Every student from the youngest sophomore to the most dignified senior holds membership automatically in the Student Association. In the fall each homeroom chooses a member to rep- resent it in the Student Assembly. A school- wide election determines the associations ollicers. Later the new president appoints a cabinet. The SA is then ready for a year of action. Members of the Student Association Cabinet this year are Cleft to rightl: Ed Matthews, Miss Therese Kneip, Bill Slayman, lack MacDonald, Faith Bennett, lean Laird, Dick Walsh, and Carol Peterson. SPEECH Ell TESTS ONORS galore came to entrants in the annual forensic contest this year. Contestants orated, 'ideclaimedj' extemporized, and dramatized their way straight to the hearts ol the judges, who awarded Hrst- or second-place honors in all divisions to Highland Park. For the first time HP won three hrsts in the city-wide contest. Tom Stonehouse, Alice Shamie, and Betty Sole took top honors in declamation, dramatic reading and extempore speaking. Betty Sole, winner over four other HP contestants in the extempore speaking contest, also placed first in the district. Her subject was i'Social Security in the Post lVar lN7orld, an origi- nal seven-minute speech which she was given just an hour to prepare. Tom Stonehouse, declamation victor of HP, won iirst place and a dictionary in the district contest when he gave Creed', by Hal Borland. In oratory, second place in the district contest was taken by Cornelia Catana with an origi- nal address, This America of Ours. Hazel Salloum, who gave The Greatest Enemy, Hun- ger, also represented Highland Park. ln commemoration of Thomas Jefferson, two hundred years ago, a '4Thomas Jefferson Me- morial Oratorical Contest gave an extra challenge to HP modern Ciceros. Phil Parmenter gained local fame by winning the school and district championship. He also won the city sen- ior high contest and was runner-up for the all-city championship. As district winner, Phil won a twenty-five dollar war bond and also received a hundred dollar bond in the final con- test. The Detroit Times was the local sponsor of this competition. Such celebrities are nothing new, as forensic winners are a tradition in Highland Park. Plaques and banners rep- resenting Highland Park's past triumphs may be seen in Miss Giflord's classroom. l4,.

B HE Pan American Club was organized a year ago by a small group of enthusiastic students who were interested in studying about their Pan American neighbors. They chose, for their sponsor, Mr. Clarence Altenberg, who has traveled extensively in South American countries. During the year the club has become thoroughly established and has carried on many inter- esting activities. The members corresponded with students in South America, held regular din- ner meetings, supervised two Pan American programs, and edited a publication Hoy Amizos. Through the efforts of the Highland Park club, students in twelve high schools in the Met- ropolitan area have formed similar clubs. The members are enthusiastic and feel that the club is a challenge and an opportunity for the promotion of unity and good will between North and South America.

Although a smaller organ- ization than formerly it is perfectly balanced, and is forming a nucleus for a larger group. The orchestra has supplied the music for various activities such as senior plays, the Jeffersonian Dec- lamation Contest, Pan American Day celebration, and a radio broadcast. Since there was a demand for a smaller organiza- tion to furnish musical entertainment for luncheon meetings and similar gatherings, a group of woodwind players was formeds A trio, quartet, and quintet are now serving in this capacity. Both the orchestra and the Woodwinds are under the direction of Philip Mlolff. Maytime, Desert Song, and Spanish Dances by Moskowsky, Mozart's Symphony in E flat, A'Sym- phony by Scarmolin, and popular patriotic songs are in their repertoire.

The band members give much of their time for civic and school programs, including rallies and parades. For the first time the band and Vested Choir combined their eiforts in presenting the annual Spring Concert. Because of the excellent accomplishments of the band the Civil Air Patrol has taken a definite interest in it this year. The members have been given special military training together with the privilege of wear- ing uniforms similar to those of the Army Air Force. In keeping with the military spirit, VVade Griffith, director for several years, has announced his intentions of joining the Navy. In appreciation of his Splendid leadership, the members of theband presented him with an identification bracelet on the night of the Spring Concert.

Striving to keep those things which have long made the school outstanding, the administration carefully considered every subject. A maximum of war subjects but not a minimum of cultural courses became the policy. Accelerated pro- grams permitted students to complete high school courses in less than the usual length of time. Experi- enced counselors helped each student select a schedule which provided fundamental training lor both incli- vidual and national needs. Harvey C. Iackson. Race Relations Counselor. Our new superintendent. Dr. Herman L. Shibler. is a graduate oi Ohio State University where he maiored in Educational Administration and history. Although he has been here only a year, he has become a iamiliar figure to the students of senior high and has taken an active interest in their affairs. He is an expert in vocational guidance, and one of his aims is to build a course oi study which will better meet the needs of all students after gradu- ation.

However, with the increasing demand for typing Qpicture lj and shorthand more of these classes had to be added to the daily pro- gram. Because music has always been an important fac- tor in building morale during times of stress, this year special attention has been given to the Vested Choir, orchestra, English Singers fpicture 25, and band. These groups have done their part toward the war ellort by appearing in many school and civic programs. Although the work in the vocational education department had been speeded up a year ago, greater revisions were necessary to make room for the pre- induction courses. Many of the tenth grade boys were interested in model airplane building. This taught them not only about the construction of planes, but their small models were used in Army and Navy classes for aircraft identification. Radio, radio code, and aeronautics were added to the course, and by instituting zero hours there was time to continue the regular vocational courses which included drafting, welding machine, and Sfsmwwasxrafwswirmxtsafy . - TH auto shop. Printing also went to war. The boys in the trade class printed war leaflets Qpicture 35 and many other pamphlets. XVith interest centered upon production for war some courses necessarily had to be dropped. In the English and language departments the emphasis in many subjects had to be shifted from the literary to a more informative side. New books about mod- ern issues took their place beside the classics, and greater interest was shown in learning to speak Spanish Qpicture 45. The art department has handled all the school publicity for the war effort. The commercial art classes have made attractive posters for XVar Bond sales, the Red Cross campaign, and every school activity of the year. Mechanical drawing classes were a necessity, and a new course in aerial map making is being organized. Such courses as interior art, sculpturing fpicture 55 , painting, and ceramics were retained for the talented students. Classes in science and mathematics departments have been tuned to the times. Fundamentals of elec- tricity, radio, and pre-Hight aeronautics were formed, and more students than ever before are classified in physics. XVar biology which includes a study of physiology, first aid, and conservation of resources is required for all tenth graders. A new course in laboratory technique is designed for ad- vanced science students. 'Rithmetic has taken on all of its old time importance and more. Each stu- dent is required to take applied math or one of the advanced courses in geometry fpicture 65 or trigo- nometry. The war has emphasized the necessity of a more intensive training in democratic citizenship and a better understanding of world problems. The social studies courses have been modihed to meet these demands. Stress has been placed on the causes and aims of war, the cultures of the orient and Latin America, on peace plans and reconstruction. Plans are afoot to introduce a new world survey course. The problems of 1943 living are made vital by studying the American Observer, Weekly News and magazine and newspaper articles fpicture 75. This summary does not cover the complete change from a peace-time to a wartime program, but it is enough to convey the spirit of the many changes which have been made. Mingled with the bustling activity of the new courses, there is a regret for the school-life of yester- day, but at the same time there is an enthusiasm for the work that must be done today. This is a 100 per cent American school, working for a 100 per cent Victory and that's a combination hard to beat. ll'U'I'UHE W!-MES and Wil E5 O HELP in the new physical fitness program a peppy service squad has been organized. These girl leaders have been selected and are especially trained to assist the gym teachers. They take roll, serve as models in calisthenics, and take charge of smaller groups.

LISTHE IES HREE, four-touch the Hoorf' is a good old command used in the girls' calisthenics classes. Aching muscles, strained backs, and lifeless liinbs sum- marize the after effects of these exercises which students must take to receive physical education credits. The girls' physical fitness program is more highly individualized than the boys -swimming, calisthenics, sports, and games are included in the daily class work. This program, which provides intensive training for all grades ol Senior High, is one of the l110St important of the new warrtime features of HPHS. 1 lb PHE-INUUIZTIUN 0 THAININ By doing half-body bends the boys strengthen thigh and back muscles.

Sore muscles and aching limbs were as numerous as mosquitoes in a New Guinea swamp, but none of the aches and pains were in vain, for hardened muscles ap- peared after long hours of jump- ing hurdles, climbing -ropes and running. All the exercises were designed for specific reasonsg some to build certain muscles and others to teach coordination. Strengthening of back muscles is the designed purpose of the above exercise.

Before opening tl1e official football season, Highland Park played U. of D. and was defeated by the Cubs for the seventh straight year 20-0. The Parkers just kept the Northeastern Falcons down to a 0-0 tie and defeated the Northern team by a mere 7-6. HP's second tie was 7-7 with Southeastern. Pershing was defeated 12-6. The HP team lost to Denby 21-0, which put Highland Park out of the running. To allow Hamtramck to play Denby, the HP squad again played Northern and overwhelmed the Esquimos with a score of 22-0.

As at a three-ring circus, Highland Parkers were able to see three basketball games at one sitting instead of just one. Every school was represented in triplex, a squad of eleventh graders, one of twelfth, and one of ninth and tenth graders combined. Because of the war, the season was drastically cur- tailed. Lack of time, lack of equipment, and wartime restrictions on transportation were the reasons given for the change. Each Highland Park team had the same four oppo- nents: Northern, Hamtramck, Pershing, and Cass Tech. Both the junior and senior teams started the season by losing to Northern and Hamtramck. Then both pro- ceeded to defeat Pershing and Cass Tech. The ninthhtenth grade cagers beat Northern in their opening gameg then lost to Hamtramck and Pershing be- fore climaxing the season with a victory over Cass Tech. Although the three teams merely broke even with two wins and two losses for each, Lino Sacco, forward for the eleventh grade squad, set: an all-time scoring record for Highland Park by scoring 20 points against Cass Tech. 63 l I EHUS3 IIUUNTHY IIHEEH LEADERS The boys who came out for Cross Country were ltop row --leit to rightl Charles Ward.

Instead of the usual string of impressive victories over rival swimming teams they lost the one and only meet this year to Cass Tech. Because the boys' swimming pool was being repaired, the only time which had been devoted to the team at all was four short practice sessions in the small Ferris School pool. The final score of this wartime meet was 107-87. Among the new events added in place of the former speed events are the pack race, the under-water relay, the rescue race, side-stroke relay, surface dive race, and the disrobing race. Only three events remained from previous meets, they were the back stroke relay, the breast stroke relay, and the ten-man free style relay.

Most of them were Hgrcenj' but with the aid of a few veterans, outstanding play- ers, and the guidance of Coach -lean Baker, they came through with colors flying. This season's scores were-one victory, one defeat, and one tie score. On Oct. 8, HP girls played Denby at Denby, and car- ried home a 2-l triumph. Cooley tied HP in a home game Oct. 21, 2-2. The one de- feat was suffered at the sticks of Ham- tramck's unbeatable hockey team. Crack players of 1943's girl hockey team are Bernardine Acker, captain, who watched faithfully over the strategic goal posts: Mary Bottaro, Thelma Newsome, Vivian lVelch, and Malinda Scott. Considering the difhculties arising in a team with few experienced players, states Coach Jean Baker, the girls made an ex- cellent record, and came out nearly on top. LL of the elements seemed to be leagued against spring sports. First, the intensilied physical fitness program required more time in the regular gymnasium classesg then, many students went to work immediately alter schoolg and last but not least, the persistent down- pour of rain day after day made practice almost impos- sible. However, some boys and girls with the old-time Highland Park lighting spirit determined to keep out- door sports alive. A group ol girls under the direction of Mary Bottaro, one of the girl leaders, organized a baseball team. An- other group under the supervision of Miss Bly Quigley revived tennis. Boys who were interested in running and hurdling organized an out-door track squad. Although the train- ing period was unusually short, they declared themselves ready to compete with other schools. lnterclass baseball teams played oll' a schedule ol games. Because ol' circumstances these teams may not make the brilliant records our teams of other years have made, but the out-door practice will help in co-ordination, en- durance, and building of muscles to which the new gym program is pledged.

How about my taking summer school and graduat- ing early ? 4'l'Vhat kind of a world is this going to be after the warn? These and dozens of other questions sent in by stu- dents created an idea that ultimately shaped itself into the organization called War Activities Period. Dr. Clifford Erickson of Northwestern University and Mr. Carl Horn, director of vocational guidance in Mich- igan, were asked to come and act as consultants. They held lengthy discussions with faculty and students. Under the direction of Miss Lou Babcock, general chairman, and Miss Emma lVines, program head, definite plans were made for discussion meetings which would meet the needs of boys and girls of high school age. An important part of the program for the juniors and the seniors was the Careers Institute. Beginning on May 4 and held four successive Tuesdays, it presented such ex- perts in their respective fields as these: Col. Alexander Johnson, who spoke on the United States Army and Army Air Corps , Mr. E. C. Lawrence, president of Lawrence Institute, Engineering g D. Callaghan, of the Detroit Free Press, Hjournalism in Peace and War g and Miss jane Porter, of the XVOIIICHIS City Club, Horne Economics and Nutrition. The programs for the I0-B's were arranged to help them in adjusting themselves to the Senior High School. The I0-A boys have spent much of this time in learning about preinduction courses while the girls have had dis- cussion groups dealing with their personal problems. Another outgrowth of the lVar Activities Period was the establishment of an R.O.T.C. ' To have an MRO unit has long been the ambition of the boys, but just at the time Highland Park was ready for an R.O.T.C., the lfVar Department put a damper on things by announcing that it would authorize no more units. But with a Hnever-say-die attitude characteristic of Highland Park students, a group of boys began discussing the problem and trying to find a way to have a unit here. This cause, promoted by Miss Emma lilines of the History Department, resulted in the juniors' spending two lVar Activity periods discussing the problem. A committee composed ol Dr. H. L. Shibler, Principal lfVil- liam Prakken, Luke Shannon. and Grant lllithey, faculty niembersg and Al Venning, Bruce Kaitner, and Dick lValsh, students, was appointed to formulate a plan. Alter the Northern High and Post Intermediate R.O.T.C. set-ups were investigated, the committee recom- mended a program, which was approved by the Board of Education. A group of approximately Hfty boys were selected and received intensified training under Floyd Moore of the regular army. These boys hope to be oliicers in their second semester.

Over the top and almost doubling their quota of 330,000 set by the government for the month of April, HPHS collected every spare penny and purchased 349,270.25 worth of bonds and stamps. This makes a grand total of approximately 380,000 for the school year. The campaign was enlivened by competition between classes as well as home rooms. The juniors were the champs of the drive, and purchased 319,698.55 in bonds and stamps. Sophs held second place with j513,726.06. The seniors came third with f1IS12,185.45. This, Bll H5 however, does not include the 35,734 worth of bonds bought with Washington trip money. These bonds weren't counted in the drive, they helped swell the schoo1's total for May. Home room rivalry reached its peak near the end of the drive. Leading were Room 5 with 33,793.75 to its credit and Room 201 with 33,531.25 Two other rooms bought more than 33,000 worth, they were Rooms 108, with 33287, and 303, with 33,150 lVhen bond and stamp sales combined are considered, Room 5 still heads the list with a total of 33,853.85 to its credit.

The echo of scrap metal rang through the streets till 3 o'clock in the morning. A newspaperman at the scene turned away amazed and said, I've been to all other scrap drives but in one night your school has contributed more than any other has in a week. The campaign, under the chairmanship of Bill Slay- man, was the first successful contribution of the CSA to the school, and the crowning triumph of all was the scrap drive dance on the last evening of the campaign.

HE Safety Patrol is another war job the students of HPHS undertook this year. It includes the former bomb squad and air raid wardens. In case of an air raid, their Work is to help anyone who is stricken in school to the best of their ability until help arrives. Consequently the requirements for member- ship are that each member has received an A or B final mark in a first aid course, or merit badges from the Girl oi Boy Scouts. In Senior and Junior High together the patrol has twelve groups, each having a complete Hrst aid kit. The groups are evenly distributed on the floors occupied dur- ing a raid or drill. In each building are padded splints, stretchers, and blankets that would be needed in case of an emergency. Many of the teachers have had first aid and are on call to help.

CRAPING old Wall paper off the Walls, removing varnish, painting, and papering are all in a day's Work to the girls in the home- making laboratory classes which meet in the two family flat at 140 Highland Avenue. Under the supervision of Miss Kathryn McLennan and Miss Eu- nice Herald the girls not only plan and discuss the correct manage- ment of a home but actually have an opportunity to put their ideas into practice. During a national emergency such as the country is facing at the present time it is more important than ever that girls should under- stand their responsibilities to home and community life. This training plays a very important part in win- ning the war on the home front. Girls in the home nursing classes fold bandages tor the Red Cross. Evalyn Amershek.

THE HIHVIE FHI1 HE HOME economics department under the direction of Miss Florence Moore has tried more than ever this year to make all high school girls aware of the many problems they are facing today. The standard Red Cross nutrition course was incorporated in one eleventh grade class. Consumer education with special emphasis on textiles and foods was a part of Mrs. Eleta Beckley's work. A course in home nursing was taught by Mrs. Oleta Hiller and Mrs. Charlotte Chilson, the school nurse, acted as consultant and gave demonstrations of nursing procedures. Highland Park public agencies assisted with this course. The girls in these classes made 20,000 dressings for the Highland Park General Hospital. Donning trim blue and white uniforms, the girls of the home making lab- oratory inaugurated a new type of service. It was in a place which needed help- the Highland Park Osteopathic Hospital. By working ly? to Aly? hours a day, they have solved the labor shortage there. They prepare trays and take them to the patients on the different floors. They learn hospital etiquette, the way a hospital is conducted, and the special diets that are served for different diseases. They also learn about such hospital equipment as the iron lung and oxygen tents. The girls commenced working on February 12, and will continue through the summer months.
