Kenneth Mead frightj, one of the student workers this se-- mester, delivers books to homerooms. . . . More books-about 10,000-are on hand for Parkers to use in the school library, in- cluding many of the new- est published. Each year Miss Ruth Irwin, librarian, initiates l0-B's into the in- tricacies ot card catalogues and call numbers lbelowj. . . . HP's literary collection was enlarged this term by a gift of the medical books of the late Dr. Victor Mar- burger, whose son Richard lfar rightj attends HPHS. ,E-2 STAR STUDDED REVUE Star Studded Revue, one of the first dramatic productions of the semester, included much student talent, almost 200 Parkers taking part. With a large number of the cast on stage lbelowl Jerry Ryan presented Mrs. Juva Beeman, director, with an orchid. -1sd9 ' Cowboy Bob Dustin llower rightl provided some real honest-to-goodness western lyrics in the Deep in the Heart of Texas scene. Carmen Miranda-better known as Dale Brown llower leftl-was one of the hits of the program and provided the glamor of the evening. Each year the senior girls put their col- lective heads together and elect one of their number to attend a DAR conven- tion. She must be the best all-around girl in the entire class, and in l944 tiny Barbara Cottingham fcenter rightl was elected to that most honorable position. . . . The pained expresion on the face of Chris Moore Qtopl only indicates his chagrin at some particularly difficult problem. Chris takes care of student opinion polls, of which there are not a few, and spends hours over averages, percentages, and tabulations of yes's and no's .... The senior class is not slow, the senior class is not stodgy, the senior class does not take a long time to make up its mind. In fact, the senior class does things on the spur of the mo- ment. One day the lncidental was pro- posed, same day committees were appointed, and the dance was adver- tised. It was held four days later, and incidental-ly was a success. Member of publicity committee Julius Tokar fcenter leftj energetically sells tickets for this dance .... For those who wanted to learn to trip the light fantastic Miss Bly Quigley obliged by holding a class. Right, Charles Milan, successful candidate for the I2-B presidency, is congratulated by Margaret Edith Martin, his opponent, and incidentally the first girl to run for the office of senior president in many years. Upper right, Robert White, ll-B, finds news of his presidential victory in The Spectator and begins making plans for junior class activities. Upper left, Don Wisner circulates his petition for presidency of the I0-B soph class. P.5. He won. ,We ELECTIONS Every semester, come fire or flood, nominating rallies are held and candi- dates are put up for class office. Every semester, come tornado or volcano, nominees send out petitions and work for election. Every semester, then, these officers proudly wear a crown of victory for a few days, and then sink into ob- livion-or wherever inactive officials reside. Nomination is a simple aftair. Such a feeling of brotherly love exists between students that You nominate me, I'll nominate you is the accepted thing. Then come the petitions-long slips of paper, with which everyone buzzes around, signing and being signed for with great fervor. After a few days, then, campaign speeches are given. They are masterpieces of phraseology, abundant in adiectives, in which the candidate promises every- thing from burning the school down, to abolishing, ngids, finals, and report cards. Thus 'iilass elections in HPHS. 4 I ,ga -Yi Members of the Student Association cabinet, Bar- bara Cottingham and Jane Keller, work lleftl with Miss Therese Kneip counting and sorting ballots for elections. The SA has charge of elections and manages them from start to finish with efficiency. ii WAR BONDS Bond drives are, and will be to the war's end, a part of HP's school ac- tivities. The Fourth War Loan, coming at the break between semesters, was the biggest and best yet. A Spec extra, in January, announced drive obiectives, setting pre-examination homeroom quotas, based on enroll- ment, totaling S60,000. Actual cam- paigns were opened in rallies ad- dressed by Principal D. L. Pyle and Superintendent H. L. Shibler. After finals, the Student Association spon- sored two assembly-rallies, at which 46 of HP's gallants were awarded their ribbons, the other 24 having received theirs in the old semester. Dave Gelston, JC's sleight-of-hand man illustrated with rope tricks lupper rightl his talk on bonds and Allied supply lines. By this time quotas had already been raised twice, with every sign of another upping. Thirty-one of a possible 47 homerooms had already gone over their quotas, led by Rooms 201 and 304 with Sl2,042.85 and 57,- 7l2.l5 as their respective totals. Opening with a quota of Sl09,000, Parkers met it and bettered it by more than 75 percent. Smiles adorned the faces of the bond committee when the chairman announced the record-breaking total of Sl89,523.4O. Gallants of the upper brackets are lclockwisel Mary McColl, Barbara Reisdorf, student bond chairman, Mary Vartoogian, James Wood, and Frances Morse, each of whom sold over 55,000 10-B Gallants Cleft to rightl Janet Comfort, Patty Fee, Margaret Woughter, Charles Duns- combe, Cynthia Allen, Elaine Perrett, Kenneth lee, and Lois Maesenich, each sold 51,000 or so. liz?

The schools they defeated were Redford, 49-10, Cooley, 20-18, and Commerce, 42-ll. HP's ever- lasting rival, Northern, is yet to be defeated, Hamtramck also took a game from the girls. Bernadine and Virginia Acker, were the team's high and second scoring players, respectively throughout all games. Fifteen girls were awarded their basketball letters. Miss Bly Quigley lleft above, distributes certificates for basketball letters to girls on her team. Team members celebrate the close of ci satis- factory season with a supper at the home of Coach Quigley lleftl.

All the team except Reese Bevan and Don Ruahman will return next year, and there is agood reserve team on the way up. VAfRSITY AT WORK Bear cagers garnered only two victories out of ten starts, but the season was tabbed a successful one by Coach Dwight Dyer. Why? Because of a stunning de- feat to the Eskimos of Northern, 29-28. The other win, over Cass, brought the squad to a peak. Final score on this game was 33-28. Leading the team this year was Bob Khlelok- ian, who scored 73 points. Eyeing his veterans, Coach Dyer says, Better days are sure to come, and I hope they will c o m e s o o n. Bears battle Northern: At left, Bob Khelokian, captain of the Parkers, tallies two points. Oscar Boyajian tries shot, at right. Chuck Frankel, Eskie star, looks on. Final score: HP 29, Northern 28. ALL - SCHOOL CCJMEDY Departing from tradition, the All-School Comedy was pre- sented in the auditorium dur- ing the activity period, but a hilarious time was had by all. The Victory Corps in full regalia gave a patriotic skit which ended in an impressive flag salute fabovej. The win- ning skit, given by Hi-Y was introduced by the energetic young mountaineer icenter leftl. Don Rushman president of the victorious club proudly shows his trophy fcenter rightj. Speakers' B u r e a u members proved their versa- tility by prancing around in Roman togs and carrying bodies oft the stage fleftl, while the disreputable hill- billies from the Hi-Y skit with their shootin' irons and ta- baccy were caught in action by the c a m e r a fbottomj. DOINGS OF THE PARKERS Tennis enthusiasts, in a pre- season class, assume a proper stance under the tutelage of Miss Jean Hoxie ltopb .... To prove that the United States is really a melting pot, and that in its student body HP has represen- tatives of many nations, a group of students of foreign descent spoke in assembly of their par- ents' reasons for coming to America fupper centerj .... While drumming up trade and telling them the facts, Eddie Watkins, president of the Letter- men, sells tickets for the Letter- men's dance flower centerj .... To introduce new members and brush up on the social amenities in France, the French Club held a tea at the home of their spon- sor, Miss Gladys Lynch, and chattered all the while in the best French they knew fbottoml, m l By next September first, the entire HP school building from Second to Third will be redecorated. School employees are well on the way with plastering. Painting will begin soon after school is dismissed in June. Several different tones of paint are planned to be distributed throughout the building. Rooms on the north side will be done over in light, warm colors to counteract the lack of sunlight, while rooms on the south side will be toned down with cooler shades. Highland Park High will be a bright, cheer- ful place for all to return to. Lately students have had to be more observant in order to dodge the ladders that are swung around by the workmen. Several Parkers Crightj pass under the scaffolds on the hall stairway, hoping that they don't get plastered. Many students were extremely anx- ious to be patriotic purchasers of War Stamps on March l0-because with every l0 or 25 cent stamp went a lollypop. Miss Kneip's sixth hour U. S. history class Cleft abovej seem to have been liberal buyers, and are evidently enjoying the whole affair. Six girls from Miss Eunice Herald's senior homemaking class planned and sponsored the drive. Ida D'Ambrose, Shirley Elward, Betty Jeremias, Lyla Kassem, Mary Sarrechia, and Irene Lionas spent hours before and after school for three days making the 700 lollipops to be given away. The girls themselves donated the ma- terials for the confections. Stamps were sold during fifth and sixth periods in the classes and also in the halls lleft.J Grand total was S150 for Uncle Sam. The sale was credited to the HPHS bonds and stamp record. Against the Cosmos ltopj Varsity-man Cheger attempts a foul shot. Team members lleft centert watch as Hamtramck piles up points. lRight center! The Bears have control at this stage of the game, but not for long. RESERVES Reserve basketeers met with a little more luck than the varsity, and won five games, while losing the same number. Dan Longaker, Mark Estelle, Joe Delock, and a newcomer to the squad who played half the year, Pete Benanati, stood out for the tenth graders. Longaker led the scoring race with 69 points, while Estelle set the season mark for one game by bagging 15 points at Pershing. The team was at a disadvantage throughout the year, as many of the steadier players were shifted back and forth between varsity and reserve.

A ' e :,2 Q ' x yi ,Q P Q ARSENIC AND OLD LACE Plenty of thrills and chills were to be found in this semester's senior play, Arsenic cmd Old Lace Aprovided by loads of corpses, poison, and lunatics. The two old sisters with the uncomfortable habit of making cadavers out of people are shown QU mak- ing one out of Mr. Gibbs CPaul Hoenerj with the aid of some arsenic wine. Barbara Knowles and Louise Murphy play the homicidally intentioned Abby and Martha .... One murder too many, planned by Abby and Martha, however, proved to be their downfall. lt was that of the superintendent 125 of Happydale Sanatorium CRay Beckerl .... Teddy Roose- velt lDale Brownl gives some instructions C35 to unbalanced uncle, Jonathan fLothar Witteborgj and his pal, Doctor Einstein fFrank Burtj .... When Jonathan escaped from the asylum where he had been re- siding, he, to the chagrin of his sisters, brought Doctor Einstein home with him KAP. A tense moment Q51 as drama critic Morti- mer makes a gruesome discovery-another one of the unlucky victims of the Misses Martha and Abby-much to the chagrin of those two dear old ladies .... Another delightful character lol, an unbalanced nephew, firm in his belief that he is the original Teddy Roosevelt, proves his point by charging up San Juan Hill lthe stairsl. The ersatz Teddy is better known in real life as Dale Brown .... All twelve cadavers 171 make their curtain calls, much to the enjoyment of the audience, who were anxious to get a look at the sisters' handi- work .... All's well that ends well, and Elaine and Mortimer C81 seem to think they've found an excellent way to end it. Though providing the romantic interest, there two were notably out of place at tImes, becauze they were sane. Arsenic and Old Lace was hailed as a great suc- cess. Looks as if Highland Parkers like plays with fugitixes from the Hbooby-hatch. . l l l I l G A goodly share of the applause for Arsenic and Old Lace went to Mrs. Juva Beeman, coach, and Ray Becker, student director. The curtain rose at 8:15 on Friday evening, April 14, after some juggling with dates, as the performance had origin- ally been scheduled for April l. Seniors reioiced, for not only was th's a senior play backed by seniors, but it also was attended by one of the finest audiences in Highland Park history. Drummers deluxe are Dick Anderson and Bill DeFrain, who took first place honors with their drum duets in the annual Solo and Ensemble Festival, this spring. Bill also rated a first place spot for his snare drum solo .... A French horn virtuoso, HP's Nancy Fisher added another first to the collection with her solo. The brass section also presented a French horn quartet at the Festival, which features Nancy, Arthur Chandler, Bob Bernard, ENSEMBLES and Bill Adams .... Harry Karagozian, George Kashian, Charles Papazian, and Bedros Tanealian, more winners for HP, were clased in the second division for their clarinet quartet .... The talents of Jack Dudley, David Jones, and Glenn Wilcox, combined in a cornet trio, Cbelow, rightj easily scored a first place for HP in the brass section. Altogether 12 places were won by Highland Park's instrumentalists-six firsts, five seconds, and one third. SOLOISTS Violin solos by both Louis Zetye Cleftj and Dorothy Hile- man frightj received second place awards as judged by Prof. David Mattern of the University of Michigan, who judged all the strings in the contest. Other judges were Leonard Falcone, of Michigan State College, who judged the brass section, Larry Teal, of the Detroit Symphony Or- chestra, judge of the wood- windsg and Sidney Berg, of Fowlerville public schools, judge of percusison .... Beulah Anthony won top honors for her piano solo, the judge for which was Homer LaGassey of the Detroit pub- lic schools .... Still another musically prominent Parker is Bill Glencorse, whose trom- bone solo placed in second division. The Michigan Band and Orchestra Association sponsored the competition in which 38 students from both JuniorandSeniorHigh entered, while James L. Buck- borough, head of instru- mental music, was the local committee chairman, hand- ling details of the Festival. Connie Shibler won an A on her work as an accompanist. 5? we fy :,, as w 5,-' 1. my - Q ik gf: W, af -L 5 l ng Q 2 If Qi ,,.x 1 fx , ff 6 z W 44 Q E E, I 9 A .1 n F A P S I ug - .. .

First in oratory in the district contests was Jerry Ryan 112, while Cecile Rhinehart 121 took top place in the declamation section of the district forensic races. Peggy Dozier 13l captured highest honors in the district contest and then went on to repeat the performance in the regional contests in dramatic reading .... The John Paul Jones orcltion contest, sponsored by the Detroit Times, was won by Bob McGhee 141 in both the school and the district. First place in the school declamation contest was taken by Jane Procter 151 .... Polly Bushnell 165, dramatic reader, received second place in district trials and James Cronin 171 placed second in extempore speaking. The homeroom is the heart of the school. lt is here that drives, campaigns, and group projects are carried on. On this page are shown but a few of the third-hour activi- ties .... Most homerooms have daily devo- tional exercises. Bruce Knowles 1 I 2 reads the Bible in Room I I7 .... That there might not be any wall-flowers hailing from l0l, these seniors had a dancing lesson once a week 121 .... Room 20 showed sales talent 131 as they topped the list on contributions to the Easter seal drive last April .... Room 210 started a mailing project 141. These sophs send each issue of The Spec to more than 700 servicemen. Postage is con- tributed by many homerooms, and most ofthe papers are donated by tenth graders after they have read them .... V, in this school, stands for both Vocational and Victory. Not only Room 7-V, pictured here 151 but most ofthe other homerooms in the vocational building have set a record for T00 percent stamp and bond purchases. TRAC K, GOLF, TENNIS Highland Park's thinclads suffered three losses in as many dual meets this spring, being outpointed by Pershing and Northern, cmd iust nosed out by a good Northeastern team. The squad gradually improved as the season progressed, but lack of experienced material kept its victory chances down. Gordon Campbell was tops in the sprints for the Parkers this year, gaining most of his points in the TOO- and 220- yard dashes, while Rease Bevan, speedy 440-yard sprinter and relay man, managed to lead the Parkers in number of points garnered, with 16. Peter Poppe was second high in the point total, gathering his points in the shot-put, relay, and 220-yard dash. Ramon Rozier won his letter by competing in the broad iump and both dashes. Bob Wisner, who high- iumped for the Bears, is shown clearing the bar Cupper rightj, while hurdlers Jim Tanner and Bill Austin shuttle over the barriers fupper leftj. The center picture caught Highland Park sprinters at the post during an early practice session. Coming up with a winning team, the golfers of old HP ended the season, taking three matches while dropping only one. Victories over Cass, Hamtramck, and Northeastern offset a defeat by Pershing. Coach Verne Handley had two standouts, John Shuler and Bob Slater. Completing the team were Bruce Paxton and John Cox, with John McCloy and Dave John-U stone as alternates .... The tennis team was not quite so successful, but managed to win three meets, losing only two. Oscar Boyaiian led the team, aided by Jim Fixel, Bob Moers, John McVeon, Jim Harrison, Jim Sterrett, Jack Marx, and Bob Petrie. if Ns gm fa Q QL J, X A ,gf .fv-2 , Q .,.-, - , :.1: wmv Q X A x ,I I x-iff' .,,,.

N HP embellishes the fundamentals with a wide range of specialized classes.

The dictaphone, adding ma- chine, and mimeograph are only a few which are in evidence. The finished products of this department are in con- stant demand for iobs in the war efifort. . . . A relatively new addition to the curriculum is a class in laboratory tech- nique headed by Clarence Altenburg. The class meets in a specially equipped science lab. flower centerj.
