These and many more are the sort of gripes and complaints the Mountaineer Staff receives annually, but all in all, the work and grief is well worth it. The Mountaineer forged its way into the hearts of the students again this year, with many new features, and outstanding qualities. During the first semester it was guided by our co-editors, Beryl Miench and Patt Strand. Wo would like to extend our thanks to Mr. McRae and Miss Overton for their capable guidance, and to give an extra special thank-you to Miss Overton for her hard work with the revived Journalism classes during the second semester. It is a big job publishing a pa Beryl Miench, Patt Strand.

That's right, the Girl Reserves! They aren't really as bad as all that though, because everyone pitched in to make this year something to remem- ber. In September sixteen candidates were initiated into the club at a formal ceremony followed by a rather wicked ordeal the next day as the school looked upon our pigtailed, makeupless initiates walking barefoot in the halls, handing out kleenex, etc. The first red letter date on the calender was the week of November 2-8, when the club went all out for the novel idea of f'Twirp Season . It was ladies' week, and every night there was a different date with something different to do, climaxing with a Sadie Hawkins dance. The girls' billfolds were really flat after all this, but they had so much fun that they want to make it an annual affair. On the more serious side and among com- munity services, the club joined the Hi-Y in packing Red Cross boxes. By selling candy they made money for the Rec Room, and sent a Christmas gift to the Houghton Good Will Farm. At the S. P. E. B. S. Q. U, A. CBarbershoppers to youl Meet, they had a con- cession stand ' Then there were those parties. How can we forget the Girl Reserve-Hi-Y Xmas party which was a housewarming for the Rec Room 7 And the picnic with the Kingsford clubs, and the overnight hike and the p. j. party. The speakers imported this season were Bill Johnson from WMIQ, who gave us the A B C's on radio: Mr. Poisson, who held a gym class: Mr. Guild, who showed movies, and Lorraine Payant, who gave some wonderful pointers on how to help the blind. This year the ring-leaders were Rosalie Fon- tana, Margaret Dundon, and Marge Battista. Under Miss Hofer's careful guidance, the club has completed the 23l'Ci yCZll' of its eXlSt9I1CQ in I. M. H. S.

The Argonaut Here, at long last, by the sweat of the brows of some twenty students, the ache of their heads and delicate bones, the bags under their sleepless eyes, and, by actual count, thirty-three pure white hairs fwith the editors displaying shiny, billard ball domesl you have it, the 1948 Argonaut, However, with tle groans of Oh, where did I put that Class Will? , These articles are all too short! , and Heavens! Who owns that one eye and the mop of hair peeking over Patt's shoulder? , ttere were hiliarious shouts of Ev, your sketches are simply adorable! and t'Our covers are here, a whole two months ahead of time!'l The staff only hopes that all of you may enjoy as many pleasant memories in looking it over now and in future years as it has had in publishing it. Beryl Miench and Mary Ann Spencer. as co-editors, along with Pat Fox, business manager, headed the hard-working staff members. Lois Rahm and Pat Scheffer took over the very important positions of advertising managers, while Margi Dundon and Rosalie Fontana backed them up as subscription managers. Rtth Maynard was placed in charge of publicity, Gerry Lindstrom, activities, and Dave Freeman managed the writing of sports. Ev Syrjanen did a superb job of the art work to be found throughout the book, her collaborator Jeanne Plankey, art assistant, drew the complete series of the Seven Dwarfv publicity posters. The rest of the staff held the following positions: Dramatics, Jean Floding Music, Diana Khoury, and Editorial Assistants, Sarah Barker, Norma Graefe, Ellen Cohodes, and Paul Gingrass. And, as an entirely new addition to the Argonaut Ltaff, it sported this year two Junior staff mem- bers, Patt Strand and Marion Cloots, who will head the '49 yearbook as Editor and Business Manager, respectively. It is our hope that, working with those whose positions they will fill, they have gained some valuable experience which they can put to good use next year. Many thanks go also to Mr. Bruce Guild, under whose supervision the 1948 Argonaut has been published. We would like to express too, at this time, our appreciation to the adver- tisers, without whose help we would never have been able to put out a book. Page Sixty one
