Maybe you graduated long ago-Maybe your sons and daugh- ters graduated from J.H.S.-Maybe you are one of this, the 1949 graduating class-Maybe you still have more school years ahead of you: yet, it is to all of you that We dedicate this, the 1949 JOPLIMO. It is a record of the growth of Joplin as well as the growth of the school. It records the activities of Joplin Senior High School-not only in the school but also in the community. It records the service rendered by students. It records the changes. It is Joplin and Joplin High School as you have made it today. As chief stockholders in our school, it is only fitting that we dedicate to you this, the 1949 Joplimo. Page 7 CLASS DAY AT .I. H. S. The day has at last come - The Senior Class Day of 1948.

Everyone is eagerly, yet impatiently, waiting in line for his yearbook. Page 9 Page 10 k Xen O EVERYONE who has been or is a student of Joplin High School the words, Dear Old Joplin, are as familiar as his daily living. We have sung it to our winning and to our losing athletic teams. We have sung it to our brilliant orators, to our visiting alumni, and to our worthy faculty members. To the students of JHS it has become a ritual. As the years spin a golden thread about our memories, We of Joplin High School will have two precious themes to remember forever. The students have sung them lustily and proudly in assemblies, and now we have developed one of our songs into the theme for this 1949 JOPLIMO Yearbook. The melody is hummed in all the classrooms and halls of JHS. We believe if we live by the words of our songs we will make better citizens tomorrow. Although Dear Old Joplin will always be our dearly beloved theme song we, like President Truman, love our state-so we give you l 'Way down in Missouri, where we go to Joplin High There are all the memories that will grow and never die The band is a playin', the gang is all swayin', While the echoes recall as in days long gone by. 'Way down in Missouri, where We praise the Red and Green, There we work together for the best times ever seen Though years may go past yet memories will last For memories live 1 Well Sim!

This was held the same day as the Rose assembly and was given in honor of all the members of the football, and track squads and their dates. It was a great success and we are looking forward to many more like them. In the way of service, we helped the Sal- vation Army in collecting food and clothing for the needy at Christmas time. For the first time, this year we attended a regional student council convention at Springfield. There we learned the proper ways to con- duct meetings, and we discussed different student council activities.

And how can you forget all the hardships of being a pledge? But it was fun -and every bit Worth it. And thanks to our grand sponsors for having patience with us and helping us carry out our ideas!

The girls played in intramural basketball and volleyball games and have now learned to bowl. This has become their favorite and most exciting sport. This year they had one of their best mixers, which was in the form of a Wild Western show. The girls are very enthusiastic over this new association, sponsored by Mrs. Charlotte Creach. Girls work hard to get ready for tournaments. Page 34 i...-.1 Engel' Spam leuefcap .Q-f ' The first lap is the easiest. Serage goes over the top. Last year's track season, the principal part of which took place last April and May, was highly successful: we came out with the greatest number of points. The boys came out in top form in high jumps, discus throwing, pole-vaulting, high and low hurdles, the dash, mile-run, and broad-jumps. A new addition to the sports world in the Joplin high School is the boys' bowling team of which many boys take advantage.

At the early practices they not only worked out new yells, but also combined them with square dances. The cheerleaders have given to the assembly audiences many exciting minutes of school-spirit.

Springdale Joplin Springfield B TEAM SCORES Joplin Pittsburg Joplin Miami ..... Joplin Springfield Joplin Nevada Joplin Miami ..... Joplin Carthage . Another highly successful year has passed in the annals of Joplin High School-one always to be remembered by the players themselves. To them it meant sore muscles, broken bones, spikes in their faces, and maybe a knock out or two-but every bit of it was worth it. To us it meant yelling our lungs out in enthusiastic cheers in a packed stadium with our peppy team of cheer leaders, in fact, one of the best JHS has known. Each of our football boys are our heroes, and we honored them proudly in a beautiful Rose Assembly. Before the day was over, each boy gave his rose to his choicest girl friend. The day was climaxed by an Eagle Dance in honor of all the athletes and cheerlead- ers. Although the dance was sponsored by the Student Council, the student body said Thank You to a wonderful team for a wonderful football season. In the upper picture the Eagle's B team try their best to please Coach Hainline and Coach Crawford as they throw the ball to Hutchinson to make a touchdown on Miami, thus winning the game 30-19.-In a rough and tumble game in the lower picture Joplin's B team play a fine game and beat Nevada's B team 39-6.

CECILIA CHOIR fyWflv-ir-R ' l ' '--is-Q'vugfg ' Z WW Y' '3 Looking back over the musical notes of 1948-1949, everyone will agree it has certainly been an harmonious year so full of outstanding music that it deserves a special encore. The band, ready on all occasions carried out such zip and vitality in school songs and marches at football games that it aroused the spirit of the entire crowd. Or in contrast, at one of our assemblies, the orchestra could create an atmosphere of dreaminess in soft music that would carry you back to wonderful memories. During sixth hour no one minded at all studying to the accompaniment of the orchestra playing-that is, if you could keep your mind on lessons! And the results of these sixth hour sessions proved to be worth while in their anniversary concert given last February 18. Participating also in the concert was the senior choir, under the direction of T.

ORCHESTRA - - and even more effective was the swelling of the harmonious music they produced ranging from light folk-songs to deep moving spirituals warmly received by young and old alike. This year has also seen some outstanding soloists from the singing department who look as though they will have promising musical careers. Between halves of football and basketball games and in various parades, we were mighty proud of the formations and snappy performinces of Girls' Drum Corps. Climaxing the year's hard work of the musical department are planned trips to Columbia for the state contest and a cross country tour to Colorado Springs. Music is always a source of relaxation anil pleasure, and you will find both in the ex- cellent musical organizations of JHS. Cadet Colonel FRED SEBAS'l'I.KN Honorary Cade!

Those are just a few of the sayings you might have heard had you been around the JOPLIMO Office in the three weeks prior to February 11. Yes, you guessed it, we were working on our Queen Coronation. Our theme, Moonlight and Roses, was one of the best we've ever had, we think. The campaign was vigorously carried on by all the student body. Beauty, grace, and charm reigned over the coronation. Queen Mary Sue ruled in regal splendor over her humble subjects. After being crowned by Johnny Holmes, her businesss manager, she was entertained by some of J .H.S.'s talented and graceful dancers.

Cheer! The gang's all here For Joplin High. Superintendent Roi S. Wood No one knows the great responsibility or shows more understanding in the problems of the youth of our schools better than Roi S. Wood, our superintendent of schools. He has shown amaz- ing capability in the duties of his position and has gone far in his work. Behind Mr. Wood's cour- teous manner is a driving force of energy that perhaps is partly responsible for his huge success. He is a familiar figure in J.H.S. and has won the admiration of all who know him. Besides par- ticipating in our school assemblies he finds time to make numerous visits to our school-we en- joy having him. Page 66 Principal Glen R. Deatherage Energy, patience, capability, and foresight-Mr. Deatherage has all these in his excellent management of Joplin High School. He has not only helped the student body, but the entire community. Although always on the go in his many activities of fixing schedules, supervising teachers, planning assemblies, and counseling students-he is never too busy to give the students a sample of his excellent sense of humor on our Friday assembly. Yes, as long as Mr. Deatherage is here to guide our school, it will always remain top rating as it is today.

A - DOUGLAS MITCHELL JOHN DIX GLENN SMITH Biology Chemistry Physics Looking back through past JOPLIMOS, we find that teachers have come and gone, and most of the pupils do not have a chance to get acquainted with all of them, so let's take a day off, just to wander through the halls of J.H.S. and see who's who . . . Can I believe my ears? Do I hear someone wailing? . . . But Mr. Mitchell-my frog doesn't have a liver. Mr Mitchell patient- ly examines the frog and points out the lost liver. A few of the girls seem to find this work very distasteful but as it goes in for a grade, they see it through bravely. Going along now to Mr. Dix's chemistry laboratory, we find a group of students who has just successfully mixed chemicals to produce a horrible smell. As we start to leave we hear one pupil comment Anyway, after school's out, I can always get a job as a dish washer in a soda fountain. Just down the hall we find a spacious room entitled Mr. Smith. This is the physics room where you learn, to quote That which goes up must come down. The law of gravity of course. The biology class we are visiting now is under the supervision of Mr. Adams. The students are observing with much interest, protozoa under the microscope. Hey! Look out the window. There at that new Ford. On the back it says, Driver's Training Car . So it must be the car used in the Driver's Course by the instructors, Mr. Hart and Mr. Hughes. HAROLD ADAMS HERBERT HART ROBERT HUGHES Biology Driving Driving 'Q-x Page 69 xx W MRS. DORA C.

MISS GRAVE COLVIN The classes we are going to visit now cannot be overlooked, for they represent the most important subject of any American high school. That, of course, is English. Our first stop is clear down at the end of 3rd floor to Mrs. Ulrici's class, where the juniors are reading The House of Seven Gables. . . . Just next door we find a class of sophomores in Mrs. Oberls room. This must be a universal case of spring fever, judging from the dreamy expressions on their faces. Or perhaps they're just getting inspiration for the poem they must turn in tomorrow. . . . Two new English teachers this year are Mrs. Fuhr, who teaches sophomore English, and Miss Stewart, who teaches journalism as well as English .... How familiar those work- books look as we observe Miss Hobinsonls class busily check- ing for mistakes. . . . Downstairs we see Miss Colvin assigning outside fiction books for her class to read . . . so let's just follow them down to the school library. Here the pupils can check on current fiction books, magazines, and material for essays and themes from the librarian, Miss Davis. MISS .IOSEPHINE STEWART MRS. EVA FUHR English English l i ' K f 5 Q 1 2- 1, . MISS IONE ELLIOTT MISS MAY ALDRIDGE Math Math If you have a problem, just work it out mathematically . . . so We are told upon looking in at Miss Elliott's algebra class. And after looking at some of those difficult-looking figures on the board, we believe it's possible. . . . just around the corner Miss Aldridge is conducting her geometry class. The girl at the board is proving why an inscribed angle is meas- ured by one half its arc-and seems to be doing a good job at it. . . . Upstairs we find Miss Reed's class of bookkeeping Writing busily in their Workbooks so let's go to-Say! Is that music I hear in Miss Pace's typing class? That it is! And un- less I saw it with my own eyes, I'd never believe they were actually typing to music. The doors in this room are always very confusing. Let's try this door-and here we are in Miss Mitchell's typing class. That's a funny looking clock on her desk, isn't it? Oh-of course. That is for time tests-and from the way the students are busily pecking away at the keys, time must be about up! . . . Next door we find Mr. Chamber- lain, who is in charge,of the school finances, counting the day's money. If you have any left over, Mr. Chamberlain, just let us know! . . . Going on, we find still another typing class. This time it's Mrs. Morris's. They're putting away their books though, so it must be about time for the bell.

But how does it rate those extra-special-looking desks? You might ask Mr. White- 'cause he teaches mechanical drawing here. . . I'd like to find out what goes on in that room where I'm always hearing those mysterious noises. In fact it sounds like a loud version of the Anvil Chorus. Do we dare to stick our heads in? Gosh! Isn't that a combination of machines? Just what you'd ex- pect in Mr. Hainline's mechanical shop class .... Our next trip is one that many students know nothing about-and that, is to the Franklin Technical School on 13th and Pearl-an all important part of J.H.S. where the boys may go to learn mechanical trades. Being as it is quite a long walk, we will have time to talk about some of the instructors. You learn about the operation of machines in Mr. Kelly's machine shop and Mr. Graham teaches a class in sheet metal. Oh-there's the building now. Gosh-have you ever heard such a clim and clatter? And how different it is to what I expected. No class rooms-just machines and cars and lots of noise. I imagine Mr. Well's welding class has a lot to contribute to the latter. All the cars you see being taken apart and put back together is lVIr. Kindred's class in auto mechanics. Upstairs is a class in carpentry taught by Mr. Weaver. But now we'd better hurry back to class.

HILDRED BAUMANN Spanish French Buenos Dias, Senorita Turrentinef' Such is the greeting' every day in Spanish class, as well as many other Spanish phrases which are learned by the pupils .... Looking in on the French Class, we might hear such phrases as , Bonjour, Monsieur, et commente tallz vous. What does it mean? You'd better consult Mrs. Baumann about that, 'cause your guess is as good as mine. , . . And last but not least in our tour of the language department, is Miss Buckeridge's Latin class. Say-that's really a democratic idea, isn't it, studying trans- lations in groups of four. And that's just one of the many interesting and different ideas found in this class .,.. Did you see the Junior Class Play? And wasn't the senior play hilarious? The credit goes to Mr. Lloyd Bell, Speech director. Mr. Bell is new this year, but it didnlt take him long to become a prominent figure at J.H.S. after Winning debates and pre- senting successful plays .... It's a long way up to art class, but anyone would tramp twice as far as fourth floor to visit Mr. Boles's art classes. Anyway thatls what we think looking in at the bright display of pictures ranging from fashion models to pastel scenes. Right now, however, his room is being used by Mr. Sovereign's St. Cecilia choir which has presented many enjoyable programs for school assemblies and concerts .... Speaking of music, where do you 'spose Mr. Coulter is this hour? In the auditorium? And no doubt providing the classes within hearing range, an enjoyable concert. We'ye enjoyed all of Mr. Coulter's music this year-at football games, as- semblies and concerts. ARTHUR BOLES OLIVER SOVEREIGN Art Choir 4 . MISS BESS BUCKERIDGE Latin QAM!

Let's stop at Miss Lant's first. It must be a World His- tory class, for some pupil is trying to point out a location on the big world globe-but he seems to be lost in the Pacific Ocean! . . . Going on down the hall, we see Mr. Thomas having a heart to heart round-table discussion with his International- Relations class. An outstanding feature in all of Mr. Thomas's classes is freedom of speech-that is to say, everyone gets their two-cents worth in .... Stopping by Mr. Frink's class, we find his classes carry on discussions on Varied subjects. A graduate of his class knows many things about world affairs. . . . And here is a class who has Charlie Osborn for American government. Charlie, as we affectionately call him, had his classes draw Utopian city plans as one of their projects this year .... Let's visit one of Mr. Humphreys World History classes now. We perk up our ears as we hear him say, I'll tell you something that made history. . Then smile as he finishes, That was the football game with Springfield back in 193-1 . . . . . . Perhaps we'd better leave on this point and visit Mr. Nichols's class, a newcomer this year in the history de-- partment. But we'd better not disturb them.

Who's that friendly face over the typewriter? That's Mrs. Rhode of course. Let's hurry down to Mrs. Cooper's class. I heard some of the girls say they were going to bake cookies today. Um-they smell lush. Best we hurry along before we are tempted. Where are those screams coming from? ls someone being murdered? No, that's just the girls playing a fast game of volley ball under Mrs. Creach's competent leadership. Oops-the bell! My-time never passed so fast in class, did it? More sounds coming from the gym, but this time a bit huskier. Pass the ball down this way. C'mon now-make a basket. We're just in time to watch Coach Kaminsky's basketball practice, as you might have guess- ed, and it's really an honor to see such a bunch of athletes play. MRS.

The way they're bandaging him, it looks as though it might be a cracked head. He seems to be enjoying it all though, so I guess it's just Sergeant Magee's first-aid class.

Page 81 Our Diversified Occupation class has helped us in many ways to p1'epa1'e for our future Work. Mr Galloway, the instructor, has placed thirty-six students in per- manent positions and approxi- mately fifty others in part-time jobs. Miss Reed's bookkeeping class is one of the busiest in the school Dolores, Norma, Joyce, and Ralph try to keep their debits, and creclits straight. We hope they suc- ceec . That peculiar odor is coming from the chemistry class just around the corner. John and Rich- ard look as if they are the cause of it all. Many interesting ex- periments are performed during the year. Down on the first floor we have the Mechanical Drawing classes instructed by Mr. White. These boys are the future mechanical engineers of the community. Tommy studies leisurely while Shannon, Mickey, and Shirley re- produce him in oil, plaster of Paris, and water colors. From these people we will find our future artist citizens of Joplin. Mr. Hainline's manual training class is never idle. They do all the odd jobs around the school- always ready and Willing to co- operate. And were they helpful during the queen coronation.
