C. H. S. as sophomores and elected Budge Henwood, presidentg Rex McKittrick, vice-president, Maring Lohman, secretary, Wayne Mueller, treasurer, with Miss Sloan and Mr. Bennett as sponsors. Then, as juniors, they followed the usual custom of electing officers, producing the junior play, and honoring the seniors at the a11nual junior-senior banquet. The officers of that year were Rex McKittrick, presidentg Bill Oakerson, vice-president, Wayne Mueller, secretary, and Naomi Shockley, treasurer. Miss Sloan and Mr. Bennett, proving such helpful sponsors, were re-elected. The junior class play, Speed, with a cast of ten Cfallingb stars was produced by Miss Magill with Betty Baker, Mary Ann Radke, Elizabeth Linker, Frances Clark, Elizabeth Hunter, Naomi Shockley, Troy McCubbin, Charles Cohen, Hardy Glenn, and Rex McKittrick as the stars. As juniors, the class had the two home room intra-mural athletic champions, in 311 as basketball champions and 206 as softball champions. It might also be added that these same two home rooms repeated as seniors. For the senior year the class chose Miss Sloan and Mr. Weber as sponsors. This year of sports has been a bright one with the football, basketball, and swimming teams, each improving tl1e records of former years. With twelve senior lettermen out of twenty the football team had a good season. The basketball team, with three senior lettermen, was undoubtedly the best basketball team in the history of the school. The swimming team also had its best year this year with six senior lettermen. The senior play, f'The Queen's Husband, was presented May 5 under the direction of Mrs. Mary Esther Murphy O'Banion. As we rapidly draw to a close, we find that the senior class of '38 sponsored the first Marcullus since '33, but the class of '39 carried it forward with a one hundred per cent subscription, Csome- thing which is seldom accomplishedj. We sincerely hope that the chain may never be broken. So leaving this thought in mind, we, the senior class of '39, bid farewell to J. C. H. S.

Miss Camden and Mr. Sanders were their sponsors. Then beginning in '38 they elected Tom Axon, president, Tom Chambers, vice-president, Walter Benke, secretary, and Betty Stuckey, treasurer, with Mr. Sanders and Miss Rank as sponsors. The class produced some well known basketball, football, and swimming Jays. They lost a hard fought game with the seniors in the play-off of the inter-class basketball tournament. The seniors leave it to them to carry on the athletic supremacy for another year, knowing it will be well done. HMurdered Alive, the junior class play, was produced April 10 under the direction of Miss Bank, with Virginia Kennedy as student director. The cast consisted of Margaret Nichols, Della Marie Allen, Marjorie Opel, Powell Adams, Virginia Michael, Maxine Blanton, Betty Boeh, Helen Bour, Richard Thomas, Stanley Howard, Laverne Wilson, and Thomas Graham. To prove their worthiness of becoming seniors the class subscribed sixty per cent for the Marcullus and sixty-two per cent for the activity tickets. Hats off to the seniors of 1940! Page 22 Each class in Senior High School is dividvd into groups called home rooms. 'Flu-se home room groups meet bcforo classes bcgin in a spccial room with one tcachcr as homu room tcachcr.

After all, everyone has his shorteorningzs, and they as yet have not learned the ways of the wise and intelligent. Nevertheless, the sophomores have showed their adeptuess to learning by display- ing fine school spirit in attending school events and producing: a subscription of sixty per cent to activity tickets. They did well in subscribing to the Nlareullus and gave prornise that they intended to have a book in '1l. Then again, the class showed a forthcoming: in athletics by having the only diver on the swimming team, one varsity basket ball letterinan. one football letterlnan, and comprised the greater part of the B team in both basketball and football.

Our football team won third place ratingsg our basket- ball team won first place and held the record of an unde- feated seasong our swimming team won the first rank. These superior ratings are due to the hard work ol' our Jay squads and the loyal support of the student body. Letis continue the cooperation between teams and students and have another fine season. -.lolm .t. .-ldumx Three years ago We had but little school spirit. The morale of the athletic teams was at a low ebb. Con- scientious training and cooperation was almost an unknown quality. Today, thanks to many reasons, our teams train: the morale is high: the cooperation is good. Our school spirit is vastly improved. Wlinning athletic teams must have these things back of them. Let us all strive to keep up the good work. This is as it should be in our school. - Victor F.

The purpose of the journalism class is not entirely to prepare students for newspaper careers, but to give instruction in intelligent newspaper reading and to give knowledge of the journalism world. At the Missouri Interscholastic Press Association Convention, April 29, the paper placed third in Class B.

Mysteries are not supposed to have a great deal of depth or moral problems to be solved, but this play, as most of Braun's plays have had moral problems, struck at the idea that Europe is a better place to be than America, and a young lady says that in her speech, No, mother, a good American boy is good enough for me. Miss Agnes M. Hank directed tl1e play which was acclaimed a success. Virginia Kennedy was the student director. The members of the cast are Richard Thomas, Maxine Blanton, Helen Bour. Margaret Nichols, Thomas Graham, Marjorie Opal, Powell Adams, LaN ern Wilson, Della Marie Allen, Betty Boeh, Virginia Kennedy, Stanley lloward, and Yirginia Welch tunderstudy for Yirginia Michaell. SE lllll PLHY The seniors chose for their class play S'The Quecn's Husband, a light satirical comedy in three acts by Robert Emmet Sherwood, who is one of two playwrights to produce the outstanding American play of 1939. The play is i11 keeping with the arrival of royalty to the llnited States. It is a New York production and is recommended by the National Council of Teachers of English. The play was directed by Mrs. Mary-Esther Murphy O'Banion.
