S pgnsor THE JUNIOR CLASS When September 10, 1956, arrived, the Junior Class began the 1956-57 school year with nineteen girls, six more than last year. Two were new to Holland Hall: Lyn Hartweg and Beverly Duden. Four returned to join our class from other schools: Margaret Billingslea, Ma- lissa Billingslea, Diane Davies, and Judy Nelson. We were sorry to lose to Edison Penny Soule' and Jill Berg- huis, the latter after the first semester. Our first project as a class was to elect class officers. Sandra Piatt was elected president, with Louise Gish as her able vice-president, Margaret Billingslea as secretary, and Diane Davies as treasurer. Trish McClintock was named Student Council representative, and Barbara Guss- man, Athletic Council representative. In October our project was the cake walk for Field Day. The red and white booth attracted a large crowd and added a neat profit to our treasury. Malissa Billings- lea was elected our Field Day queen candidate. For the holidays we decorated on the stage the huge Christmas tree with abundant blue lights and tinsel to serve as a background for our charming Queen, Louise Gish, a junior of whom we are most proud. Everyone survived the semester exams and settled clown to begin a new semester. Many envious glances were cast at Barbara Gussman with her beautiful Florida tan, when we returned from Easter vacation. Page 46 Class Day was an exciting day for the Juniors. It was our responsibility to write and present the Senior prophecy on Class Day, which took the form of a parody on the search for Bridey Murphy. May I4 we received our coveted Senior rings, selected in December and eagerly awaited all year. We had a most enjoyable and memorable year under the guidance of our capable sponsor, Miss Evelyn Sharp. We are hoping to see everyone back in the fall when we plan to further develop the Honor System started in a small way this year. It will be great fun to be the oldsters of Holland Hall.

Sponsor THE SOPHOMORE CLASS September found eight old Freshmen welcoming two new members to our class. Florence Bailey from Horace Mann and Brooke Calvert from Olney, Illinois, making a grand total of ten terrible sophomores. As soon as possible we held our class elections. It was gratifying to see that our class is one hundred per cent behind its officers, for we elected them all by acclamation. They are Judy McDonald, presidentg Gretchen Feroe, vice- presidentg Vikki Cole, secretary-treasurerg Lucy Diggs. Student Council representative, and Sally Walker, Arh' letic Council representative. In the school elections. Marsha Moore was made secretary of Student Council, and by appointment she became co-editor of The Wind- mill. Mr. Murphy has been our class sponsor. At Field Day we sold candied apples and ran a dart booth for a tidy profit. Then we were occupied with the Christmas Candlelight Service and exams. XX7e were all glad to shed our navy blue uniforms after spring vaca- tion. We were represented in the Pops Concert by Florence Bailey, Brooke Calvert, and Gretchen Feroe. Wfe are especially proud to have Judy lVlcDonald in our class since she was named Citizen of the Third Quarter. On Nlay 4 we gave a picnic for the seniors at Florence Bailey's farm near Owasso. Having a good time eating. playing baseball and just plain loafing delighted the seniors and sophomores Page 52 Marsha Moore was elected to present the trophy which our class donates annually in the Equitation Stake at the Tulsa Charity Horse Show in the spring. This is the year when we become sixteen, and are finally eligible to receive our long-awaited drivers' licenses. Judy McDonald was envied by all when she received a light blue Ford convertible for her birthday. During the year we were represented by Lucy Diggs, Gretchen Feroe, and Susie Schofield who conducted inspiring chapel services. Now we are concerned with final exams and com- mencement, but we are eagerly looking forward to sum- mer vacation and to being big juniors next year.

We have had a profitable and exciting year, although the work has proved a bit tougher than in previous years, and we have had to work harder than we sometimes wished. Five new girls, Pam and Paula Johnson, Susie Wolfe, Hope McMillin, and Judy Larson, swelled our number to fifteen. On Field Day we were invincible. We introduced Roulette lnever played at H. H. before nor sincej, sold peanuts, potato chips, Fritos, and balloons. We boosted our treasury considerably through our superior sales- manship. Some of our activities and projects were attendance at the Youth Concerts, writing contest essays on Okla- homa's future, and preparing term reports on some phace of ancient history. In English we enjoyed reading many well-known classics through which we definitely increased our ability to understand the written word. In Latin we diligently prepared to read Caesar next year. Page 56 Sally Blocksom, Karen Thomas, Sharon Parker, Pam Coddington, and Sarah Barker distinguished us in the Pops Concert which was well attended and well received. At least our spirits have not been dampened by the April weather, and we are hoping to make good grades on our approaching examinations. In looking back we find that this year has been most enjoyable and that, in adding greatly to our store of knowledge, we have had real fun. See you next year!

Here we were, housed in a room well suited to about a dozen desks, and did we fill that space to capacity, what with the bouffant skirts and countless petti-skirts of the pre-uniform days! We have been proud-and not so proud-of some of our achievements. On Field Day our project yielded our treasury only modest returns, but we could boast that one of our young members was runner-up as Field Day Queen. In competition with those upper class beauties, Molly Funk won second place! Although individually some of our members pleased listeners by conducting the Wednesday Chapel Exercises with high approbation, we had our firs: opportunity to appear as a group at the Thanksgiving Assembly. We looked scared, we are told, but we learned that people liked our singing. Ar Christmas, we felt happy to have a gay party with the Seventh Grade. We had fun, and did we eat with gusto the popcorn balls, an annual treat from lVlrs. Kiker? We participated in the Pops Concert, and Kathy Hardy as Sportin' Lifeu amused everybody with her solo, while Pamela Carlson fascinated the aud- ience as she sold her wares and sang, The Strawberry Vlfomanis Song! Sharon Jacobson's Porgy', and Mary Emeryis Crabman were a delight. Page 60 Wfe are a live-wire grozp, one for all and all for cne, and we do know how to stck together. Yet we are decidedly a group of individuals who represent many talents and tastes. In our number we find pianists and singers, artists and artisans, a scholarly few who got A's in everything, and writers! How we have loved our Theme of the Week on a variety of subjects! One of our members won a cash prize in the city-wide Thrift Essay Contest. We have athletes, riders, dancers, beau- ticians, hiar stylists, and Emily Posts. Yes-we are a live-wire group! We have many faults, of course, and we recognize that these must be eliminated as we enter high schoolg but we also have many virtues and talents. Watch us grow as we forge ahead, and see how much leaderihip we shall show in the coming years- a prophecy from the Class of 1961!

In social studies we made murals to illustrate our studies of the Old World, Our most successful attempts depicted Ancient Rome, Knight- hood, the Vikings, and the Renaissance. Most of our art work was integrated with classroom study. Each of us created a loom and wove a yarn mat, made self- portraits, posters, illustrations for reading materials, and art folios. Since physical development was also stressed, the Page 66 boys organized a Tennis Club and met once a week for instructions in the fundamentals of the game The orchestra and band provided fun and excellent training, for we were well represented at all school pro grams in which the orchestra and band participated We enjoyed several field trips, thus enriching our learning Among our enjoyable vis ts were those to Philbrook, the Gilcrease Museum, the Tulsa County Fair, the Tulsa Philharmonic Orchestra, and Benedictine Heights College, where we saw a rare display of Bibles and old books. The Girl Scouts, under the leadership of Mrs. Chand- ler, besides cook-outs, sewing, nature study, singing, and knot-tying, found time to enjoy ice skating together, The Lower School Operetta gave each girl an oppor- tunity not only to show her singing ability, but also to display her sewing skill, since each girl made her own costume. All in all, it was again a profitable and happy year.

JUNIOR KINDERGARTEN Mrs. Janice Street, Teacher Junior Kindergarten, composed of the four-year olds, has been very active with ten spirited boys and four calming girls. For most, it was their first experience in learning to live away from home. Making new friends, learning to share and to talce turns, and developing lage muscles was fostered in free play time involving the slide, rocking horse, boat, climb- ing gym and large building blocks. Use of the smaller muscles was encouraged through clay, finger painting, cutting with scissors, crayons, pasting, and painting on the easel board. Mrs. Thomas, Assistant Teacher 'W 1 s Self expression was fostered at Show and Tell Time,' through dramatization of stories, games, rhythms, paint- ing on the easel, clay, building blocks, and finger plays. The very stimulating curiosity of the four-year olds with their frequent queries of Why, Teacher? brought about some field trips to the science room where Mr. lNlcCarty, science teacher, gave interesting demonstrations on moving streams of air, space, spontaneous combus- tion, and chemical reactions which caused changes in color and form of matter. We took several class walks each season to observe and to study the world outside. Seeds, bulbs, and cuttings were grown in the classroom, each being carefully watched and watered for growth by the future scientists of America. When weather permitted, the children enjoyed play- ing outside on the hanging bars, jungle gym, merry-go- round, slide, sandbox, and see-saw. Other days, inside games were taught to develop physical coordination and sportsmanship, especially learning how to win or to lose without undue emotion. Nlusic and creative rhythms were favorites with all. 'What a thrilling experience it was for most who found their singing voices for the first timel Clad in pink pajamas with angel wings, these fourteen little singing cherubs portrayed the Angel Chorus over the Manger Scene, in the Christmas Pageant. Listening, self expression, self control, observing the rights of the individual and the rights of the group were all fostered in the hidden techniques within the free and directed activities. Through all these experiences the Junior Kindergarten children took the first successful and happy steps into a world larger than home. xxxxx N D NN RPOR N Q :: o m,Qf,EoNA if A M U1 A .V Q -,'2 'A' O .Emu ,, A:::t is pf .Z-KEIIYITIE Page 75 Page 76 Seated Elxzibeth Call han Presldent udy PM ohnson Vxce presxdent Mrs He1xey Sponsor Marsha Moore Secretary Marlan Cole Treasurer Standmg an Stambaugh Trish McClmtoclc Sharon acobson Sally Blocksom Lucy D1gg5 Gayle Babcock Upper School Student Council With the start of the 1956 57 school year the Upper School Student Council began IIS meetmgs under the leadershlp of Beth Callahan president and of Mrs Ellza Bennett Heavey sponsor Representatives come from classes seven through twelve and ofhcers are elected by the student body Meetlngs are held about three tlmes a month to dlscuss ways ID whlch the school may be xmproved to dlscuss new I'Ul6S for gOVEI'I1lI1g the student and to bring al30l1f 21 ClOS6I' l1fld6fStaI1dlI1g between StLldCI'1IS afld f3.Clllty In the fall the Councll was 1n charge of the annual Field Day 1 carnlval deslgned to mcrease the treasur1es of the varlous classes Aqaxn at Chrlstmas tlme the Councxl representmg the entxre school collected SUHTCICHI funds to contrlbute to the llvxng expenses of a forelgn foster child under the Foster P1 ents Plan T stead of choosing a different chlld the gift went agaxn to Onel1a N1CCOll Cxransvllla Italy whom the Councxl has helped s1nce 1974 At the end of each quarter of the school year the Counc1l selects from Upper School a glrl who best represents the standards ot Holland Hall 1n schola sh1p leadershlp and cltlzenshlp The glrl IS g1ven the txtle of Cmzen ot tie Quarter It 15 the duty of the vlce presldent to secure speakers tot the weekly Chapel QCFVICC Several guest mmxsters have spoken and Upper School students have partlcxpated IH the servlce Monday afternoon assembly perlods were arranged by the p esldent and have included spealte s on varlous subjects Under the d1rect1on of Beth Callahin a Constltutlon was formed for the Upper School which 1S a further effort in tne establlshment of an Honor System at Holland Hall . : . . a . , g J 1 bl . - g .

PUBLICATIONS This year as always, the Publications staff has had to work diligently to meet each deadline. Our three issues, Christmas, Valentine, and Easter, have come out right on time, thanks to the tireless, careful work of each member of the staff and our sponsor, Miss Beckington. Our carefully done work of last year paid off when we received the award of first place for our yearbook, Eight Acres, in the Columbia Scholastic Press Association contest for schools of our size. Our magazine won a Superior rating at the Tulsa University Press Day on April 26, with Gwynne Fuller carrying off an honorable mention in the feature writing classification and Liz Diggs placing in two categories, with honorable mentions in editorial writing and interviews.. We certainly were proud of our standings alongside the other schools who entered their best writers and magazines too. Our staff was headed by our sponsor, Miss Beckington, again, with Nancy Meadows and Betsy Cole serving as co-editors of the yearbook. Sylvia McCormick arranged our business affairs, with able assistance from Barbara Bungardt and Sandra Piatt. Liz Diggs was editor of Q'The Windmill, Marsha Moore, the assistant editor, and Peggy Seay, editor of Dutch Treat. Through the untiring efforts of these leaders, we are again able to say, YVe have a fine magazine and annual, and we hope that you enjoy reading it as much as we enjoy putting it out.', OFFICERS OF PUBLICATIONS Betsy Cole, Nancy Meadows Co-editors of Eight Acres' Sylvia McCormick Advertising Manager Barbara Bungardt ' I ,sw I Q if ffff ,- w I ' if : ii Y-ws Assistant Advertising Nianager 'S .Im 5- QF? .

UPPER SCHOOL ART Early in the fall the art activity classes of the high school, and Eighth Grade, under the skilled direction of Miss Josephine Beattie, set to worq practising sketch- ing in pen and ink, preparatory to designing plates for the yearbook and magazine of the school. This led to the selection of a volunteer group who put aside their own special desires and carried on to competion all the lettering and designs for the division plates of Eight Acresf, A The special requirements included making posters and program covers for school activities, Field Day, a Pops Concert, and Christmas decorations by the Eighth Grade class for the halls of the school. All high school art activity pupils tried out for the Christmas magazine cover contest. This took special instruction in commercial art techniques suited to linecut reproduction, and many sessions were devoted to trying to get the Christmas spirit in October or late September, since these cover designs must be prepared for the engraver weeks ahead of the publi- cation date. After completing the required projects for the school, there was scenery to paint, time for experimenting with sculpture in wood, plaster of Paris, copper enamel- ing, painting in oils and water colors, and trying out skills at the potter's wheel, or possibly attempting to make a folding screen with stencilled cloth panels. All of the art classes owe their thanks to Philbrook for innumerable pleasures made available to us on our trips there. The Art History class is grateful for the privilege of using the beautifully illustrated books in Philbrook's library. In browsing from the basement of the museum through the galleries, period rooms, and gardens, the girls have found inspiration for their own painting and craft work. Page 81 Page 82 All Ages Hard at It Daily in Library THE LIBRARY Total circulation of books for grades seven through twelve from September to April was 1737 in our school library. A Lower School library was set up in the hall between the Fifth and Sixth grade rooms to be used by the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth grades. The first semester it was supervised by Mrs. Muriel Cleverdon, Fifth Grade sponsor, and student librarian, Gay Lyn Parrish. The second semester the library was supervised by Mr. Jim Nvhite, Sixth Grade sponsor, and Kathy Barker, student librarian. Two hundred eighty books were placed in this library, and it was supplemented by magazines and books brought by the children. Homeroom libraries were set up in the Second and Third grade rooms. The annual Book Fair was held November 5-9 with new books on display all week. Thursday evening the parents were invited for coffee and dessert and for viewing and buying the books. Although the attendance was not so good as that of last year, the sale for the week was a little better with 5856.33 worth of books being sold. Mrs. W. H. Johnson and Mrs. Eldon B. Cole, members of the Parents Association, assisted with the fair. The following students also assisted: Beth Callahan, Sylvia Nlccormick, Gwynne Fuller, Judy Adams, Liz Diggs, Betsy Cole, Judy McDonald and Vikki Cole. The final six units of The Pageant of America Filmstrip were received in February from Yale University. The set of thirty film strips with related Teachersi Guides gives both the facts and the spirit of our country's history from the primi- tive Indian times to the atomic era and the jet plane, and include sociological, :ul- tural, and industrial aspects. This very valuable series was a gift from Nlrs. A. G. Oliphant. Mr. and Mrs. Donald McCormick are due a hearty vote of thanks for the gift of securities to the library, the income from which will be used to purchase books. A book plate bearing the name of their daughter Sylvia, who is a senior this year, will be put in each book bought with the fund. Seated: Pat Wright.

GLEE CLUB Glee club is an extracurricular activity at Holland Hall, which provides excellent opportunity for its fifteen talented members to learn to work and sing in harmony. The first program which the club presented was the Thanksgiving assembly, featuring sacred and seasonal songs, introduced by poetic selections, chosen and read by Elizabeth Callahan of the Speech class. The Eighth Grade chorus opened the program with I Believef' The club sang two selections for the Upper School Candlelight Service. Angel Songv featil:ed Nancy Meadows as soloist. with piano accompaniment by Marsha Moore and violin obligato by Mrs. Ross. Sarah Barker sang the solo part for What Child Is This? On April 12 the Pops Concert featured the Glee Club with support from the Seventh and Eighth Grade choruses. The concert opened with the club's dramatic and musical presentation of a group of negro spiritualsg it closed with a group of popular songs appropriate to a musical calendar. Soloists were Nancy Meadows, Rebecca Roberts, Patti Young, Linda Schoenfeld, Sharon Parker, Margaret Billings- lea, Gayle Babcock, and Sarah Barker. Linda Schoenfeld and Pat Wfright appeared as a duet between acts. Elizabeth Callahan and Brooke Calvert, members of the Speech class, con- tributed much to the success of the Pops Concert, since they were both performers and stage managers. Elizabeth composed and read poetry to introduce the songs in the musical calendar performed by the Glee Club, and Brooke, in addition to her work backstage, cleverly pantomimed Eartha Kittls Monotonous.', The club's last appearance of the year was at the Baccalaureate Service, where they sang Salutation,' by Gaines, and O Lord Most Holyi' by Franck.

PIANO STUDY Once again the school has been privileged to have Mrs. David V. Williams as piano teacher for those students who are interested in piano study and who wish to take private lessons as a part of their school curriculum. As in the past, the students have had the opportunity to gain a thorough knowledge of the keyboard, rhythm, theory, and tech- nique. They have been encouraged to integrate their musical abilities into the musical life of the community and school. Piano was studied by fifteen girls and two boys this yearg seven from the second grade, five from the fifth, four from the sixthg and one from the eighth. A piano recital was given on the evening of March Z2 in the school auditorium. A reception followed for the parents and friends of the students. FOLK SINGERS Seated: Eric Oliphant, Gwen Dyer.

Kneeling: Peggy Seay, President. Physical Education Activities Watch your posture, girls, are words that become familiar through Mrs. Kaboth's constant watch for stooped shoulders or a leading chin. Throughout the year she is a constant reminder that good posture should be a part of our school work, not only in sports and gym classes, but in our daily activities as well. Five major sports are participated in by the girls of the two athletic teams. Members of the Sakawas and the Wanatas compete in baseball, hockey, soccer, basketball, and volleyball. Scholastics are always a factor in team competition too, for at the end of the year, a trophy is awarded the team whose members have maintained the higher scholastic average. Since last year the two teams have another trophy for which to compete. It is the posture trophy and the girls have been warned that there is a panel of teachers always on the alert for bad posture. Pictured above are the members of the Athletic Council. The Council con- sists of a representative from each class, the captain and co-captain of each team, besides a president elected from the members of the senior class by the student body. This group regulates intramural activities and decides on who will receive awards in sports at the end of the year. 3. wig, All Eyes on the Ball PLAY DAY Play Day is one of the last times during the year when the girls of the Upper School represent their teams in competition. During the spring months there is busy preparation and activity in such sports as tennis, archery, volleyball, baseball, ping-pong, and shuffleboardg for each girl is eager to be a good representative of her team in the three sports she chooses to enter on Play Day. Points are tallied in each sport, and, when the Play Day cup is awarded the winning team on Class Day, each girl can be proud of the part she has played in making the day an outstanding success in the practice of good sportsmanship.

Boys Physicol Education The boys, gym program, under the direction of Mr. Hales, started with some rough and tumble touch football. Close order drill followed by calisthensics and several gym games were the order of the day on days football was not played because of bad weather. This included tumbling, wrestling, and running obstacle courses for the boys of the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth grades. The Third graders enjoyed a taste of Indian wrestling. Soccer followed football and proved to tax the abilities of both the Buzzards and the Eagles. After soccer a short series of basketball games were played, followed by periods of softball. Baseball finished the school year, capped off with a field and track meet in May. In September the First Karuseweber tests were administered to test the minimum strength of the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth grade boys. The tests were given in January and several improvements were noted. The tests were repeated again at the end of the school year to check development progress. The athletic trophy was not awarded this yea? to the teain win- ning the most games, but to the team displaying the best sportsman- ship and team cooperation.

Christmas carols directed by Rebecca Roberts, a member of the Senior Class, were sung in English, Latin, and French. Nancy Meadows and Sara Barker carried vocal solos, backed by the Glee Club and the Eighth Grade. Student accompanists were Marsha Moore, Karen Thomas, and Sylvia McCormick. The climax of the service was the crowning of the Christmas Queen, an honor traditionally given to a member of the Junior Class by vote of the entire student body. The Queen this year was radiantly lovely Louise Gish, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wesley G. Gish. She was crowned by Gwynne Fuller, the retiring queen of 1955. Kim Rodolf, a member of the first grade, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. Rodolf, was the flower girl, and John W. Bates IH, also of the first grade, son of Mr. and Mrs. W. Bates, Jr., served as crown bearer. Earlier queens include: in 1937, Mary Louise Shade fMrs. Chas. McNamaraj, in 1938, Jean McIntyre fMrs. R. C.

wrth older brothers I was the most fortunate of all these for I had the most perfect brother ever made If you had ever seen my brother you would know he was unforgettable He was tall and strarght as a young maple yet supple and slender as a wrllow Hrs harr was the color of wrnter wheat and hrs eyes were a perfect match wrth the summer sky on a clear day They were brrght and sparklrng when he was happy dark and cloudy when he was drsappornted or sad Hrs mouth was firm and yet at trmes was sweet gentle and almost chrldlrke He wore clothes to perfectron and rn tuxedo was a srght to behold You see I must say was, but I wont talk about that now for rt rs a tragrc story and I want you to know my brother as 1 remember hrm From my rnfancy my brother and I were good frrends We had lrttle quarrels of course but they never amounted to anythrng at all I remember a phrase of hrs that I heard trme and agarn and shall never forget When I became angry, whrch was not rnfrequently for I was never very good at holdrng my temper I would call hrm a toad or some equally senseless name He always remarned calm and patrent He would srnrle at me rn than very specral way of hrs and say Strcks and stones may break my bones but words can never hurt me I would feel so rnfantrle then that I would be srlent for the trme berng, that rs He always treated me lrke a queen and I was determined THE WINDMILL December, 1956 I would marry hrm one day He used to rntroduce me to all hrs frrends not tryrng to hrde me as most brg brothers do When hrs frrends came to the house he would brrng me out and say Fellows thrs rs my krd srster She can really play ball Then they would all ask me to jorn them rn a game I used to feel so brg, because you see my brother was seven years older than I and to jorn hrs group of frrends was the thrrll of a lrfetrme for me I would pull my harr back and wear jeans puttrng my thumbs rn my hrp pockets as I had seen the boys do, so that they would not thrnk of me as Just a GIRL I drd not want to be babred I wanted to be one of them and my brother and hrs frrends treated me as an equal INow as I look back, I wonder rf he drdnt brrbe them to let me play baseball or clrmb trees, or go brcyclrng or hrkrng wrth them because rt doesnt seem natural that a group f boys seven years older than I would want someone s krd srster rn therr way My brother drdnt seem to mrnd havrng me at hrs heels all the trme, though I was lrke the shadow ln Stevensons poem and he rncluded me whenever he could He was one rn a mrllron' When my brother began havrng more and more brrthdays he started also to get too old for brcyclrng rnstead we went car rrdrng You can hardly rmagrne how surprrsed I was when he bought hrs frrst car I was very fond of that car wrth rt s lrttle rumble seat rn the back just made for two My brother and I used to rrde rn rt everywhere we went and he would srng nonsensrcal songs to me After he got hrs car he started gorng out wrth grrls of hrs own age and we drd fewer thrngs together I felt rather lonely then, but I drdn t mrnd too much because I understood We strll drd thrngs together, but they were more crvrlrzed actrvrtres than before bowlrng and movres and thrngs He started gorng to dances rather frequently, and, so that I wouldn t feel left out he and hrs frrends began teachrng me to dance I wrll admrt rt was qurte a change from baseball hrkrng, and tree clrmbrng and I was slow to catch on at first After tryrng so hard to be tom boyrsh I had a great deal of drfficulty changrng rnto a young lady My brother was very patrent wrth me though and he was finally able to make the dance patterns soak rn untrl I was able to stumble around to a beat I was al most dancrng I regret that I haven t hrs patrence now that I am tryrng to teach my younger brother to dance One day I awoke to fand my brg brother wearrng a gray cap and gown and I felt somethrng drfferent rn the arr I seemed as though all the years had tumbled together and he had suddenly become a man Then he went to college and I saw hrm only on holrdays and durrng the short summers for the next two years At the end of that trme, he called and asked me to come to Kansas Crty where he was at the trme and I drdnt waste any trme thrnkrng rt over Soon I was clrmbrng off the trarn and he was swrngrng me around wrldly We raced to hrs car and then drove and drove We drdnt even talk We just drove We went to all the very specral places rn Kansas Crty and he took my hand and showed me everythrng there was to see The last place we vrsrted was an old brrdge that had been half washed away by a recent Hood We just stood there rn the dark lookrng out at the water, whrch reflected hundreds of brrghtly colored lrghts from the crty He took me to an aunts house where I spent the nrght dreamrng of the fun we had as chrldren Those memorres are all sweet ones and I shall always thrnrc of my brother as the most wonderful person rn the world Memorres are all I have left now, however, for you see I lost my brother just one very short week later on August 28 1953 the date of hrs weddrng 13 . 7 ' .

The entire Upper School elects the queen by secret ballot. This year Louise Gish, daughter of Mr. and Nlrs. Wesley G. Gish, was chosen. The queen was crowned at the close of the candlelight service of the Upper School, on Thursday, December 20. Joy Lea Parrish of the first grade, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. Y. Parrish, was Hower girl, and Allen Green Oliphant, Jr., also of the first grade, son of Mr. and Mrs. A. G. Oliphant, served as crown bearer. Louise was crowned by the 1955 queen, Gwynne Fuller. Following the ceremony, Elizabeth Callahan, president of the Upper School Student Council, and Hal Balch, president of the Lower School Student Council, presented the queen with the money gift for the maintenance staff. At this time was announced the amount contributed to the student's philanthro- py. Again as for the past two years, the same child has been assigned them through the Foster Parent Plan For War Children. Rebecca Roberts was chosen by the student body to serve as director for the carol singing. Nancy Meadows and Sarah Barker carried voice solos. CHAPEL AND ASSEMBLIES Each Wednesday morning a Holland Hall student from the different grades i8-IZJ has presented a chapel service, conducting a service of her own choice. On October Z4 the Reverend Harold Brockhoff, from Christ the Redeemer Lutheran Church was the guest speaker at chapel. His topic was Happiness Since the beginning of school Holland Hall students and teachers have been entertained on Nlonday afternoon assem- blies by outstanding speakers. Miss Linda Kay, co-owner of Travel Unlimited Bureau, left Holland Hallers with a desire to take a Caribbean Cruise after her talk about these fascinating islands so close to our own country. Along with her talk she showed a color movie which pictured some of the places of interest on each island, A David Corbett of the Tulsa Tribune staff spoke on Life and People in Great Britain. Nlr. Corbett was able to give the students a better picture of what life in England is really like rather than what the tourist sees. Mr. Corbett's talk'was of special interest to the English History class. THE WINDMILL-Deceniber,1956 LOUISE GISH Other outstanding speakers were Miss Billie Sigafoo, Youth Director of the First Presbyterian Church, Mrs. William Bruckner, Dr. Beaumont Bruestle, Head of the Speech De- partment at the University of Tulsa, Peter Gerald, narrator for the Vandever Hour on radio station KOMEg and Miss Helene Bettink, French and World Events teacher at Holland Hall. The Publications Staff also had a program promoting the ads contest and their publications work. A Thanksgiving progrzm was presented by the Glee Club and the Eighth Grade. Beth Callahan of the Speech Class also participated in the program. FIELD DAY QUEEN Thursday, October ll, the annual Field Day festivities were held. The brightly-colored booths and all the many delicious foods sold made each class successful with its pro- ject. Barbara jo Davis reigned over the day's activities. Her attendants were Gayle Babcock and Molly Funk. 19 4 THE CHATTER BOX The 1956 Provrsronal class of the unror League of Tulsa includes Loulse Curran 51 ean Newton Tate 47 Barbara Brander Iverson ex

scratched h1s army crew cut and repl1ed No I would say that on the whole 1tS much the same but there are a good many new faces especlally nn the faculty Although he doesnt object to army hfe the Lxeutenant has no lntentzons of followmg tt as a career and plans to work for hxs Masters degree 1n the teachxng of German at the LJHIVQFSIIY of Wxsconsxn, Illnaols Northwestern, or Cahforma rn

Was there ever any proof that he was the son of God? He was a fake I tell you' Anna said gently esus was no fake I myself was Cured by Him I know I had been blind since birth until my mother took me to see Him She had heard of His works and knew that was the only one who could help me x-Ie cured me, she said simply by touching my eyes No He was no fake The s ntry looked into the dead mans face If this is true then surely this man was the son of God he said softly The pity and scorn had gone from his eyes and in their place Anna saw amazement and fear Nlost important however she saw belief YOUNG LOVE By joan Welge tGrade 73 When I was five years old 1 thought that 1 had found my only two houses from me So one day we got together in out little hideout and decided that we would get married and have a chocolate wedding cake made only of frosting and eat rt all by ourselves It was also decided that we would not have a regular wedding with a lot of people because that wasted too much honeymoon time but we would slip off silently to the preacher and get married just as Ronnies mother and daddy had done For a honeymoon we also came to the conclusion that Africa would be the ideal place We could hunt lions, elephants snakes and enjoy other kinds of adventure This was all care recorded Wlth PICIUTQS ln IT1y llttle gray to keep on file II1 my roofn 111 case we WOl1defCd about qnyfhlng we had said Unfortunately the very next day we had an argument over my dog Ronnie said that he was stupid since he could not sit up when I told h1m to I repli d that he was not stupid He had neier gone to dog school So I began thinking that maybe I should marry Tommy But, no, he was always afraid to get his clothes dirty Or maybe Billy would be the one to marry But no again' He was always teasing me, and of course, I couldn t marry Eddte because he was too far and he would never let me have any of his candy So that left only one person, Ronnie Well, the next morning I went over and apologized, saying that maybe my dog was dumb He also gave in a little and said that my dog might not be so dumb after all Since neither of us could get the courage to ask the preacher to marry us we were married by Tommy who repeated the 100th Psalm Ronnie s family moved away shortly afterward though whtch made lf a very short marriage Apt-11,1957 THE WINDMILL O I v - ' I V ' ' 1 7 A ' ff 7 4 - 1 . .

not work and this time was no exception It rs a bath I shall never forget Mother had just finished putting me into the tub and had gone for my clothes when I saw a way of escape I dashed out of the house and down the street, stark naked By the IIITAC I reached the corner I began to notice that several people had stopped and were laughing Mother of course was hastily tracking me down switch rn

127 There IS nothmg more annoymg than door to door salesmen They appear at your front door at the most 1nopportune t1me That t1me IS usually when you are 1n a great hurry to go somewhere, and you are already late or else just after you have settled yourself 1n a hot bath At my house I have absolute mstrucnon to say that Mother IS not at home and that I dont know when to expect her Somet1mes th1s 15 rather d1fF1cult because I can t tell whether 1t 15 the Fuller Brush man or a good frxend of Daddy s who lS just passmg through town Some of the salesmen act as though they have known the fam1ly for years I remember one day 1n part1cular Mother was takmg a nap and I recl1n1ng on my bed was engrossed l1mag1ne that lf you canl ln study The door bell rang and I went to answer If VUhen I opened the door there stood a man w1th a sm1le on h1s face, and a su1tcase 1n hlS hand He asked how I was and then asked 1f my mother was home Well for once I was smart and caught on I very 1nnocently sa1d No she sure 1snt Im sorry But then when he handed me about twelve d1l'ferent samples of Fuller Brush products I felt rather gu1ltv about the l1e I had told There IS another k1nd of salesman that I s1mply detest Thats the man who after you open the door walks br1skly mto your hung room and seats h1mself on the sofa Then he says hello and states h1s bus1ness There 1sn t too much you can do then except IISYGH to h1s sales talk In a way IK IS rather sad to make hmm go through a long speech and then say 'Y es they are n1ce but I just don t have any money r1ght now and mv husband won t be home unt1l next uly Ive figured the husband say I just don t know how Im goxng to eat and support all twelve You may be sure the salesman w111 leave w1th no 1ntent1on of com1ng back for fear you w1ll ask h1m to lend you some money Of course there IS the salesman who comes to your door wantmg to know 1f he can pa1nt your house number on your curb Then he says you can make a donatlon of 1 dollar and a half 1f vou want and you do feel obhgated and glV9 h1m the donatxon There are many types of salesm n other than these of course but these are the most annoy1ng However your WOYTIQS are oxer because I have solved your problem Don t answer the door A YOUTHFUL AMBITION By V1 a Kennedy 1Grade 85 Manv of us when we are young have amb1t1ons wh1ch are shortlxved Gfhen I was four years old I couldnt
