To Honor Coach and Team IN appreciation of the fine record they have made for our school, we wish to dedicate this edition of the Monroe Mon' ocle to WILPRED THIES and his basketball team. Mr. Thies, as basketball coach, more than anyone else, has made basketball the sport that it is here at Monroe. Through his efforts, our basketball team has made its presence' known throughout the state. In the eight years that he has been with us at M. H. S., there has been a noticeable improve- ment in the quality of Monroe cage squads. Basketball, as it is played here, serves as a part of our edu- cation: for both those who take part in the game and those who may be classified as boosters it provides a proving ground of good sportsmanship. The boys who have played this year are typical of those who have been members of our teams in former years, Monroe can justly be proud of these boys who have worked hard under their capable coach to achieve our first unde- feated season in many years. COACH W. L. TI-IIES and the MONROE HORNETS In Reminiscence Remember that first day of school? Mother brought you to the edge of the schoolground, kissed you, and cried a little, and you couldn't understand why. Then as you started in, you thought you did. And in the third grade you played the part of a wise man in a Christmas play. Of course you didn't say anything, but you stole the show by the stern solemn way you stood there and looked down into the cradle. In the fifth grade you were forever coming home with a black eye, but you should have seen the other guy. Mother would clean you up, and doctor the eye, and admonish you never to do it again. Then you went right out and forgot her command. Seventh grade, geef You're growing up. You're in high school. To be sure it was only junior high, but, well, that was something. The night of the ninth grade party. You were really grown up now. A freshman and going to a partywgoing to dance too. Sophomore, junior, and senior years speed by. All filled with pleasant, memorable events. What's that? Commencement? So soon? Makes you feel a little sad doesn't it? What's happened to all those months since you first entered school? And what part will they play in your future life? T ,,,. A syn - few-F - ' limb- R4m,.'S-fi lv . qw 2 ,ww . ,fm Isa? in ,t Mwsk w CLASSES Y?V-55 -il: C. W. YOUNG Superintendent Conseientioiusly They Serve Our board of education in Lemon Township represents the people, and is wholeheartedly interested in carrying out projects which will make the acquiring of education a genuine pleasure in Monroe High School. They have maintained that crowded conditions must be alleviated, and to that end they have twice presented bond issues for the approval of the electors. Although no building additions have been authorized this year, the board is promoting the uses of the present facilities to their fullest extent. Two new members recently elected by overwhelming majorities are Ralph Helsinger and Claude Barker. Together with Robert Mat- son, J. B. Gividen, vice president: and Dr. M. A. Boyd, presidentg they form the board of education. Wade C. Ihle, clerk, receives Their Schools and Communities his appointment by authority of the board. These men are vitally inter- ested in the welfare of the boys and girls at Monroe. To them We owe gratitude for guid- ance and instruction in the essentials of good citizenshipg for protecting us from outside individuals and groups, who attempt to use the schools for selfish endsg and for helping each of us to be a better person by encouraging the teaching of proper habits. We appreciate their Work and loyalty.

Someone is standing. That's right, Mr. Hamilton, fcommanding detention-keeper who took his place as principalj has arisen to dismiss us from assembly. And if it happens to be one of those assemblies when the elementary school is present, they are dismissed first, led by sixth-grade instructor Mr. Ross, to whom all of the authority falls in the first six grades. Miss Kehr, with her crowd of beginners, leads the way. Next comes Miss Barnett, who has taken her place as the second grade teacher. Following her is the third grade, filing out under the able supervision of Miss Ihle. Miss Orem capably handles the fourth grade youngsters who are being closely fol- lowed by Miss Methven's fifth grade group. Our maestro and instrumental music leader, CMr. Bennerj then takes charge of the seventh grade, as Miss Meckstroth, artfully directs the eighth graders to the art room. As the freshmen rooms leave, we hear a Oni Monsieur, from Mr. Dapper and Mr. Grine hurries to his shop-domain, while Mr. Strider busies himself with arithmetic and science. Next come the sophies following physical-education mis- tress Bishop, English and guidance teacher, Miss Armstrong: and the two businesswomen who are in charge of commercial, Miss Overholtz and Mrs. Wilson. Vccalize students. Yes, Miss DuChemin is leading her group -of juniors, followed by chemistry and physics master Brackney, then come history-teacher Mr. Harris, who keeps the past in the present, and the problem-teacher Mr. Lewis. The senior group should know their English, since their home- room teachers are all grammarians. Miss Krout, Miss Camp- bell, and Mr. Worthman lead the twelfth-graders out. Mr. Williams and Mr. Theis, the two who take care of athletics and science, go out by themselves, while all this time Miss Paul has kept the office running smoothly, so as to keep your school in order.

ZOLA-Look, Chalmer, here come Ed and Maryella. Let's kid them about being juniors, and see if we can get a rise out of them.-Hello, juniors! Say, you should be thinking about the great responsibility that will be put on you next year instead of gadding about the halls. We seniors are all convinced that you won't be able to carry on the good work that the class of 1942 has started. ED-That's what you think, Zola. You just don't realize the potentialities of our bunch. For example, look at our athletes. Eugene and Jim Heller, Calvin Tucker, Rollie Griiiith, Bill McGohan, Tom Osborne, and others like them will take care of our basketball, football, and track.

ZOLAW-Well, you juniors are surely very confident of your ability. Who will carry on your scholarship glory, after we've gone? MARYELLA--Well, how about Joan Hinds, Albert Koch, Phyllis Walck, Rose Marie Krabbe, Bo Warner, and such? All are seasoned members of scholarship teams, and decidedly intelligent. And look at our actors and actresses-surely we have plenty of them. CHALMER-You've almost convinced me that we are leaving the future of Monroe High School in capable hands. Certainly if self-confidence and pride in your classmates will help you to succeed, you are set for a rosy future. ROOM 302 FIRST Row: Maryella Oligee, Eleanor Phillips, Mary Rothfuss.

Miss Armstrong's Hot Shots went to the finals, being elimin- ated only by the champion Globe Trotters. Pardon us! Are we interrupting??? You see, the sophomores are having a class meeting. John Clear, vice- president, is presiding during the absence of the president, Ray Craycraft. Ray is probably busy managing the Mon- roe Hornets.

Young, superintendent: Paul Worthman, faculty business manager: and Charles Hamilton, principal: was one Which, we hope, has shown more in the way of friendliness and sportsmanship than ever before. Mr. Thies, head coach for the basketball and track teams, has built not only great teams, but also has taught his players the value of clean sportsmanship and of coop- eration, Mr. Williams, the football coach and assistant for the basketball team, also carried on many activities conducive to a fine athletic program at Monroe High School. Without the help of these men, there would probably be quite a few people saying, Monroe? Where is that place? instead of A'lV1onroe? Oh, yes, that's the school with the fine athletic teams! Football Opens thletie Program ll HEN the leaves assume their brilliant colors and the sultry summer breezes are replaced by the crisply cool air of autumn, the thoughts of all loyal Mon- roe sports fans turn to football. Frost-bitten fingers and toes, hot dogs with mustard. and throats scratchy and sore from screaming are accepted as inevitable hazards by the spectators, as they follow their team throughout the season. Players from every high school class responded to Coach William's call early last fall. Enthusiasm ran high, and the boys were anxious to bring fame and glory to themselves and their alma mater. Records show that this year's Hornets were a better team defensively than offensively. They tallied a total of 131 points to the opponents' 53, as they romped over Lebanon, Fairfield, and Wilmington. Games with Franklin. Stewart, and Osborne-Bath resulted in ties, and we were on the short end of the scores with laockland and Dayton Fairmont. SK 'W 'Z Xktb ,0 n an ,K l 'NX E 1 ISL ll . a PICKELSIMER DOEBLER ROUTSON MCGOHAN LUBBERGER TUCKER PIGSKI HEROE RALPH PICKELSIMER played the tackle position opposite Doebler. Pickel was one of the biggest men on the squad and his ability to make the forward wall strong made him outstanding among the players. DICK DOEBLER, the other tackle for the Hornets. played three years with the varsity eleven. His size and viciousness proved to be the deciding factor in many of the Monroe victories. Although HERSHAL RoUTsoN was cut the last part of the season with an injured shoulder, he made an enviable reputation earlier in the year with his excellent blocking. BILL MCGOI-IAN is one of the few who will return to the Hornet squad next fall. His experience. speed, and deceptiveness will be real threats to any opponent. CARL BABE LUBBERGER was always taking the interference away so the Monroe backs could make the tackle without trouble. He always did a beautiful job of it, too. CALVIN TUCKER is another junior who will return to the line- up in '42. 'ABaloney was small in stature, but dynamite comes in little packages. CRW? WH MK TQLS QN iilvm D Q' ' Q . FARMER PAGE LINDSAY BACK SOULE CRAYCRAFT ROLLIE GRIFFITH, better known as Porky, could nearly always find a hole in the opponents' lines: but if there wasn't an opening, then he made one with his 182 pounds of brawn. BOB MURPHY didn't play football until his senior year, but every ounce of energy he had was put to work on every play. This made him one of the best tackles at Monroe. STERLING TOLSON, always carrying the fight to the other team, played the left end position. Baldy was noted for his great defensive play. Playing three successive years at the varsity center position, FRANK FARMER was always a main threat against the opponents' ball carriers. BOB PAGE, a junior, played at one of the end positions, and proved many times that backfield interference could be taken out. HAROLD BACK's fleetness earned him the name of swivel hips, as he seemed always to be where the tacklers weren't. MAC SOULE, the brains of the gridiron, is six feet and tips the scale at one hundred sixty pounds, Mac's ability to call the correct plays at the right time earned him the position as first string quarterback. DOUG CRAYCRAFT alternated at the fullback position of the Hornet HT formation with Curly Griffith, His powerful set of legs made him one of the best in the backfield. Gridders Complete Tough Schedule l HE Monroe gridiron heros finished the season with three victories, two losses, and three deadlocks. Starting the season, with a bang, the Hornets trounced their close rivals, Lebanon, in a night contest under the lights. Monroe scored five touchdowns, but two were called back for penalties. The Hornets won by an l8-O score. After this victory, the Blue and Gold warriors traveled to Dayton Fairmont, only to leave with a defeat attached to their record. Then a Very crucial period followed. The stubborn Hornets played three games in two weeks. Heads-up ball was shown in these contests, which ended in three successive ties: Franklin 7-7, Osborn Bath, 13-13, and Stewart, 0-0. Each game proved to be an exciting chapter in the history of the Hornets. In an effort to break the deadlock jinx, the team traveled to Lockland, only to fall under this powerful team by a 13-O score. At their last home game, Monroe played Fairfield in a cold driz- zling rain which turned to snow. The Hornets started off fast and ran up a score of 49-6 before the game ended. The Wilmington Hurricanes were our next hosts, only to be beaten by a fighting Monroe team by the score of 31-6. Coach Williams' lads opened the game by taking the kick-off on the twenty-yard line and romping eighty yards for the first score. Through The Hoop! MONROE opened their basketball season with a 29-l6 victory over Miamisburg. They continued their winning streak through- out the season, ending with sixteen victories and no defeats. The Hornets largest score was made in their last game, when they defeated Dayton Chaminade 56-20. The biggest threat given during the season was by North College Hill, over whom Coach Thies' team edged a 27-26 win. Ralph Pickelsimer was high scorer for the season, collecting l64 points in eighteen games, His highest scoring spree was against Dayton Chaminade. when he made twenty-two points. Monroe drew one of the toughest teams in the district for the first game in the tournament-Springfield. They handed Spring- field a 22-l7 defeat, and their next opposition became Middle- town. Although the Hornets played splendid ball throughout the con- test, and showed superior power both offensively and defensively, the breaks of the game proved to be overwhelmingly in favor of their big-town rivals, and the game was given to Middletown following an overtime period. COURT CELEBRITIE HAROLD BACK, substitute guard, was always in the heat f h o t e game. He shone with his fancy manuevering of the ball, and he was very deceptive. After playing two years on the reserves, CARL LUBBERGER, senior guard, finally fought his way to a regular position on the first five. Carl's ability to break fast on the floor made him extremely valuable. The big brother of Jim Heller, EUGENE, also played guard for the Hornets. His outstanding feat was a hook shot, which was very difficult to stop. He was no slouch on defense, either. This season saw RALPH PICKELSIMER copping the season's scoring honors. He was a constant scoring threat who gave the opposition plenty to worry about, and he was one of the finest pivot men in high school circles. This was his third year on the varsity squad. B ACK LUBBERGER PICKELSQM 6ccffffi 'i E. HELLER Captain BILL LINDSAY displayed his fine ability for the third successive year on the pg. varsity quintet. His steady offensive play and his sportsmanship have made him an X outstanding player of Monroe. 4' Steady improvement moved BILL MCGOI-IAN from the reserve team to the varsity ten, His rebounding and hook shot ability gave the second-stringers plenty of offensive X X power. ff X l . .X 1 Sprouting up to the height of six feet two Inches, BOB MURPHY has given the oppo- M ,S sition all they want of his rebounding and of his accurate set shots. BOB CLEAR'is known as the handyman of the hardwood. He has shown capable playing at all positions. His speed made him a constant threat to all opponents. BILL GRAFT'S swishing long shots were his favorite. He saw plenty of action on the reserves during the year, and then was made substitute for the varsity. Advancing from the reserve team to the varsity quintet, JIM HELLER has proved him- self very available in the clutches with his left-handed hook shots. LINDSAY MCGOHAN MURPHY CLEAR GRAFT J. HELLER x.

Decisions regarding the future destinies of our clubs, home rooms, and teams are made by these people. Confidence in their ability to arbitrate is expressed by their classmates when they are elected to the council at the beginning of the year, and con- sequently, they are called upon for the solution of many school problems. Dancing at noons and following basketball games is council-sponsored, as is also the white gift assembly. Visiting council members from nearby schools were entertained here, and several return trips were made by the local group for the purpose of observing methods em- ployed for school betterment. MERCURY CL UB Deadline Thursday! Out Friday! Assignments are made Cnot saying that they are writtenj by page editors. As the next few days roll around and nothing construcftive happens, the old deadline is found knocking at 306's door. Reporters scan the next few days for news, while advertising men call feverishly for ad copy, and typists ready the copy for the printers. Rewrites are written, and pages come rolling in at the last minute from column- ists. Copyreaders do the last-minute correcting and censoring, while Miss Campbell serves as guide. The paper is ready and off to the press and now it's-thirty. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY The decision being unanimous, we will sponsor the paper drive beginning .Ian- uary 12, l942, said Betty Fry, president of the National Honor Society, at the regular meeting which is held the first Friday of each month. To be a member of this super-active group is the highest local honor a student can receive, Membership is based on character, scholarship, leadership, and service. During the past year, under the supervision of Miss Armstrong, Miss Campbell, and Mr, Worthman, they conducted a mid-year award assembly: took charge of a dance each month: assembled and are having printed the student handbook foir '42- '43g and sponsored a basketball banquet: the May Day celebration: and the final aw:rd asgembly. MONOCLE CLUB Advertising contracts, picture negatives and prints, engraving deadlines, printers proofs, and art layouts, could only be part of the vernacular of one group-the Monocle club. From the opening of school in September until the annual is distributed in May, senior staff members, sponsored by Miss Overholtz, strive constantly to produce the kind of a book that the student body will enjoy. Editorial writers slave to obtain the necessary data and condense it into available space: artists work feverishly over the dummy to balance their pages: and those who possess a head for business secure advertising, check collection skeets, and pay the bills.

Under the guidance of Mrs. Wi'lson, girls from this club act as secretaries to faculty members: and in addition to the typing of tests, outlines, and the filling in of forms, they frequently 'help the teachers by decorating their rooms, filing materials, and doing various odd jobs throughout the building. In addition to the personal benefit they derive from such activity, they also add greatly to the benefits the school provides. CARTOON CLUB Caricatures of one's teachers and friends are often found on our notebooks and exam papers, but seldom are such pictures actually sanctioned, so that they may appear at any time on the school's blackboards and bulletin boards. W1'th the forming of the cartoon club, under the direction of Mr. Harris, the students became picture conscious. Nothing was sacred to their evaluating eyes: their associates' features became-not distinguishing characteristics, but a series of lines, dots, and dashes, which could be exaggerated or subdued to suit one's fancy. From such endeavor we have seen the growth of a group which now expresses itself adequately, if not always well, through the medium of cartoons, and if origif nality is to be desired-they are topnotchersf LIBRARY CLUB If one would walk into the library during activity period, he would find a group of girls, known as the library club, busily at work among the books. Their work, supervised by Mis-s Krout, tends to make them more efncient as librarians at Monroe or in any other library they may happen to be in. Their various jobs include the cataloging of books, making cards for them, filing cards, and working in the library during their free periods as assistants. They also keep the bulletin boards decorated with folders advertising outstanding books. The girls also read books and make reports on them, thus acquainting them' selves and their fellow-workers with texts and their authors, SERVICE CLUB What could we do without them? There would be no rest room monitors, no Hspecial delivery messengers. and no people to complete those innumerable odd jobsf' if there were no service club. Personnel of this group, directed by Mr. Dapper, have contributed in many un- suspecting ways to our happiness and well-being in school. They have given generous- ly of their time and effort to help the cogs of education run smoothly and effectively, , , A ' 5 .JUNIOR SECRETARIAL CLUB LIBRARY CLUB CARTOON CLUB SERVICE CLUB whom, PM A P-ff-., HOBBY CLUB ART CLUB ARTS AND HANDICRAFTS CLUB BEADWORK CLUB HOBBY CLUB It isn't everyone who can develop from a builder of r. o. g. models to construction engineer on a Sparky, Taylorcraft, Waco cabin, or Stuka dive bomber in one year. But such advancement is not at all rare within the membership of the Hobby Club. the advisor of which is Mr. Worthman. Model-building of ships and airplanes occupies the time and energy of boys in this group. They study plans carefully for each unit they choose, and after they have actually started to work, their wrath at being interrupted from' the job at hand is not to be sneered atl Masterpieces involving technical construction problems are products of the long. tedious hours of work these boys spend in pursuit of their hobbies, ARTS AND HANDICRAFTS CLUB Knit one! Purl two! Have you. by any chance, noticed any of the members of the arts and handicraft club at work lately? Some of them knit, some embroider, some crochet, and others do such things as will tend to educate them for future do- mestic life. Miss Armstrong, the instructor, and her club members can assure you that their's is a happy outfit. They sew rapidly, pass their work back and forth for criticisms and suggestions, and ask for color schemes from their companions, Many hope chests are being filled with articles completed here: and much in the way of interior decoration of their homes has been accomplished by these girls. ART CLUB Color, line, design, and purpose: these are phases of art pondered upon by the art club, supervised by Miss Meckstroth. Designs for decorations, covers, signs, etc., are constantly referred to this capable group by all classes and teachers throughout the building. No small part of their efforts are directed toward the planning and executing of attractive bulletin boards and room adornment. When members are not busy on any of the above projects, they do creative drawing, printing, or modelling for themselves, and numerous exhibits throughout the year display their handiwork. BEADWORK CLUB One, two, three, four white: one, two, three, four blue. Now lower the thread under the loom threads, and pull tight. Careful, don't twist your needle, or you'1l get a knot-and then you'll have to start all over again. Thus, one member of the beadwork club instructs one of the newcomers in the intricacies of the art of weaving beads into the bracelets, necklaces, purses, belts, and rings which have long been the pride of the Apache Indians. From the developing of their patterns from various mythical symbols to the Stringing of a loom and the actual weaving process, the girls are directed by Miss Overholtz. Although the results of such work are frequently seen adorning the purses of our co-eds, many lovely gifts are also designed and completed.

I want to finish my buckeye necklace this week so that I may start on some embroidery work next week. Heads bend closer over the work at hand as the sponsor, Miss Ballman, walks around to inspect the progress some of the group is making with their knitting and crocheting, and flying lingers and tongues attest to the popularity of this activity. GIRLS' GLEE CLUB The swelling harmony of singing voices proclaims our arrival at the girls' glee club. Led by Miss DuChemin, the girls have learned many new songs, both classical and popular. In order to become acquainted with a wider range of classical music, they listen- ed to recordings of famous music, played by well-known orchestras. This helped them to appreciate classical music, and also to become familiar with artists who are well- known. During the remainder of the year they sang for their own enjoyment and for that of others, as they appeared frequently during assembly programs. Social hours were a part of their activities, and often they held informal gather- ings and parties during activity period and after school. BATON TWIRLERS Twirling batons and swirling skirts typify one of the newest of activities here at Monroe-the baton club. Drum majorettes from this year's band undertook the job of teaching the would-be strutters the basic fundamentals of the twirlers' art. It is not unusual to hear someone whimpering when a baton falls heavily' upon a head, or to see Miss Bishop looking at a swollen Hnger, caused by a whirling rod which was out of control, Such minor accidents, however, do not dampen the spirits of these club members. They merely pick up their batons, eye them carefully, and start their nimble fingers to spinning out wide, rapid circles. DRAMATICS CLUB Bertha, be careful you don't bump into that chair when you turn to go off stage, said Mr. Brackney while directing a play in dramatics club. Future aspirants to the crowns of Catherine Cornell, Maurice Evans, and Judith Anderson flock to this band of stage conscious people who work untiringly to per- fect their art. The dramatics club members have been working on pantomimes, readings and short plays, Several appeared in Mildred is My Name, in a student assembly pro- gram: others have given readings.

Hr Y GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION GeeI Wouldn't it be fun to have a G. A. A. at Monroe? Why can't Monroe have a G. A. A.? Other schools do! These were just some of the remarks one could have heard last year at Monroe. This fall, for the first time, Monroe has an organized girls' athletic association. Under the leadership of Miss Bishop, the organization started out with flying colors. Early in the fall, officers were elected, and the club's program for the year was outlined. Games and activities which would allow the full participation of all girls en- rolled were planned, and the development of a new athletic consciousness was unavoidable. Basketball was by far the most popular diversion of the year, and as the season progressed, teams were chosen, and an intramural tournament was played off. BOYS' INTRAMURALS Starting in the fall with touch-tackle, softball. and socker, the boys' athletic club enthusiastically pursues a year-round sports program which, by its very versa- tility, is sure to appeal to all students. Early in the year the advisors, Mr. Lewis and Mr. Strider, divide the group into six teams, and determine their major interests. As the weather becomes cooler, basketball occupies most of their time, although time is also found for gymnastic relays, checkers, and ping-pong. Spring, and the call of baseball, causes the members to rush hurriedly out at noon shouting loudly, First batter. I'm pitcher. or Safe at first. TUMBLING CLUB Thirty-five minutes of fun-that's what the tumbling club has every day, under the leadership of Mr. Williams. The air is filled with the boys flying about in somersaults and back flips as they work strenuously to perfect their techniques. Perhaps no greater degree of enthusiasm can be displayed than is shown by members of this group, for it is not rare to see these boys come stragglingl in the lunch line-late, because they had to take one last leap or jump! Pyramid building and complicated routines challenge their best efforts and as a result of their concentrated practice, members of this club gave exhibitions between the halves of 'the basketball games and on the traveling program. INDUSTRIAL ARTS CLUB Interests of all kinds are evident to observers of the industrial arts club. This is to be expected, of course, since Mr. Grine allows the boys to work alt whatever hobby they find interesting. From stamp collections, model-building, sketching, picture albums, and drawing, members select some work they would like to do. At Christmas time they made malny gift articles, including breadboards, cut- ting-boards, etc. Model-building of war machines fairplanes, ships, tanks, and gunsj has occupied their time during the second semester, and many of these are truly Works of art. I 1 'lil' , U 1 1,11 I ' 'Q ,o .'yQ TUDE CTI ITIE BAND Here you will find the best recipe for the most enjoyable music you've heard: it has just the proper amount of the best ingredients, mixed well to produce the most sensational music ever to caress one's ears. The name of this concoction, when completed, is the Mon- roe band, Chief cook, Mr. Benner, measures out the saxophone, clari- net, trombone, and cornet sections lavishly. To these he adds a few sections of flute, baritone, alto horns, and sousaphones, and enthusiastically stirs in the percussion instruments. After thoroughly whipping the above into shape, it is gar- nished with: drum major, Henry Moore: majorettes, Zola Garrett, Helen '6Squeaky'7 Reynolds, and Katherine Tugglel and color guards, Lois Warner and Phyllis Bell. TRIPLE TRIO '4The Three T's will practice in room 303 at 4:20 this eve- ning, is a phrase familiar to each Monrovian every Monday morning. ' If you pass by the door of the rehearsal room at the appoint- ed time, you will ind Lenora Witt, Helen Switzer and Lois Habig around the piano going over some music. Mary Rita Routson and her sister are always eating ice-cream before sing- ing. Billie Schuyler, Gertrude Rosselot, El-Louise Wilkinson. and Ruby Ketron are either helping Miss DuChemin sort the music or they are around the piano singing, too. Joan Hinds, the able accompanist, is playing the piano, just as one would expect her to. But when 4:20 rolls around, the trio really gets down to work, so that their numbers will be polished when perform- ances are scheduled. POPULAR ORCHESTRA Swing out on that second chorus-and Leah-you take the solo after the double bars, says the leader of the popular orchestra, Mr. Benner, in the weekly rehearsal of the Monroe dance band. Playing for school parties and dances, for assembly pro- grams, and even for outside parties, has necessitated frequent practice for this group, which also provides the musical back- ground for the traveling program. Wherever the white-jacketed modern swingsters appear- ed, they met with instantaneous success, and not infrequently their after-school rehearsals prompted informal jitterbug ses- sions. Featured vocalist for the orchestra is Helen 'lSqueaky Reynolds, and outstanding were the trombone solos of Eddie Butterfield. ORCHESTRA Quiet in the audience, the director raises his baton, down it comes, and an abundance of superfine music pours from the midst of Monroe's orchestra, which is under the very able di- rection of Mr. Charles Benner. There are thirty-one regulars on the orchestra's roll, with ten members who add to ranks part of the time. They might aptly be termed our musical 'iminute men, for it is to them We rush when we Want entertainment for assem- blies, plays, and miscellaneous programs. They are a regular part of the spring music festival, baccalaureate, and commence- ment programs. Selected individuals appear in the all-county orchestra, and many compete as soloists in the district music festival, For the superior rating she received at this contest, El-louise Wilkinson participated in the state finals.

DONALD GINGIERICH BLSTTY ANN TRIMBLE Recognize Leadership This year for the first time homeroom competition was organized and carried on with a definite objective and a definite goal in mind. The objective was to increase in- terest in as many school activities as possible through wide student participation. The goal was a beautiful trophy purchased by the school as an award to the homeroom amassing the greatest number of points in the course of the year. In an effort to touch as many students as possible the contest was made rather all-inclusive, taking in such ac- tivities as athletics, scholarship, dramatics, assembly pro- grams, assembly behavior, music Cwhich included band, orchestra, triple trio, traveling program, etc.j, attendance, and sale of activity tickets-thereby enabling every stud- ent in school to participate and earn points for his home- room, even though he did so only by being punctual in attending classes. The trophy is to be inscribed with the number of the winning homeroom and will be held by that homeroom during the ensuing school year. As a further recognition of student participation and accomplishment, individual junior and senior awards are made- in the helds of service, forensics, music and athletics upon the completion of a specified amount of work in each division. Crown New hamps Intramural basketball again received its share of fame and glory in the athletic calendar this year. Throughout the Weeks given over to preparation for the tournament, the home rooms composed yells, rehears- ed songs, praised and shouted for their individual teams as enthusiastically as they might for national champions. At last the long-awaited day of the tournament open- ing rolled around, leaving little to be desired in the way of pep and keen competition. Through the preliminaries, to the quarter finals-on to the semi-finals-and then- when the smoke of battle cleared away, the Globetrotters from senior room 306 stood in the champions circle. With a Well-balanced team, boasting several varsity players from former years, the Globetrotters had little difficulty in subduing their less-experienced opponents in the four games required to cinch the title. Somewhat of an upset was experienced when the Hot- shots, sophomores from 201, blasted their Way through to the Hnals, and put up an excellent light before succumb- ing to the onrush of the intramural champions, To the winners went the 200 points on the home- room trophy while the runners-up were consoled with 100 points.

The walks surrounding the hangars in which the great ships were kept Were wet and slippery, yet I didn't mind the weather conditions, To me, nothing existed except the trip before me. With the help of my valetess, BETTY IRETON, I soon was safely installed in a stratoship, and was ready to start! My first trip to Montopia! I shall never forget it! How thrilled I was to visit that floating island far up above the earth! That island that had been dis- covered by Scientist CUMMINGS in 1950, and dedicated by him to all the fatig- ued l942 graduastes of his Alma Mater! The pilots of the stratoship were named FARMER and LINDSAY. The stewardess was LEAH POLING. We went alarmingly fast at first, but soon the pilots steadied the great ship down to a moderate speed. For twenty-nine hours we floated through space, and at last in the distance, we saw the great walls sur- rounding Montopia. Soon we were near enough to see the great portals. UP above the portals, there arose a great hornet, carved in stone. On each side of it, burned two torches incessantly. One burned blue, and the other gold. As we neared our destination, the gates swung open. My valetess and I sprang down from the stratoship, and passing the gatekeeper Cif that wasn't ARTHUR MARTS, it was his twin brotherj, we entered the beautiful land of Montopia!

Do you believe that? That's what Cleopatra said, but she was only one woman. She was told she was beautiful and believed it. There are more than 50 million Women today, old and young, who by their actions say they would rather be good than beautiful. They are the women who will rule this great land of ours.

Every month a far- mer's convention was held. President ZECHER gave talks. Each member monthly paid l3c. which was put in the treasury which was guarded by JOYCE FLEMING SOULE. QWhy shouldn't she be the treasurer, with husband MAC the most prosperous farmer in the diggings?j That evening I decided to go to the movies. As I was walking down a street called STROUPE Avenue, I noticed a large sign stating: HKESSLER, KETRON, HURSH and LUCAS--Models . A little farther on, a large sign read: SWITZER'S Salon! Permanent waves S .50-NOT responsible for loss of hair! Perhaps that explains my seeing LOIS HABIG bald-headed, and LENORA WITT wearing a crimson tou- pee. Next door to SWITZER'S Salon, was a store with the notice: 'AWigs by WILKINSON. Quite a coincidencel And then I came to the theatre. The feature that night was The Gold Rush of l942 , starring HENRY A'Fonda MOORE, NORMA Shearer MOR- CAN, and ROBERT 'ATaylor Murphy. It was very sad-in the end HENRY got married. After the main feature, we saw a newsreel of the latest events. For instance, we learned that Madamoiselles McGILL and SIXT had discovered a new way to get thin quick! No excess baggage. And a great literary writer, named MARY VIRGINIA WALCK, had died the Week before of heart-sickness! Her death, therefore. lay at the door of WJLBUR MARLOWE. After the show, I stopped at the corner drugstore to get a soda. The soda jerker, a certain DOQGLAS CRAYCRAFT, fixed up such a conglomeration of nothing in the soda, that it was all I could do to crawl to the druggists' counter and buy a box of GULLETTE Aspirins from Miss OAKLEY. CONGRATULATIONS DRINK f r 0 m CARTER'S BEVERAGES T H E P A R A M O U N T HA Flavor for Every Taste T H E A T R E Dial 2-6101 MIDDLETQWN, QI-HQ MIDDLETOWN, OHIO In the front of the drugstore, there was a pretty booth, and in it was an artist who'd won world renown, CLAY HENRY. It was very late when we got back on the street so I hailed a taxi. The driver was an old wizened fellow, who s1id his name was JR. HOUSH. He drove me to the LAMBE Hotel. That night I put in about two and a half hours of good sound sleep and about flve hours of counting sheep. However, next morn- ing I was refreshed enough to continue my sight-seeing tours. As I went down the stairway of the hotel, I met a pert little ladyiall in green except for a purple veil which extended all the way down to her ankles. As she lifted the long veil and peered out I could see-lands, it was DELLA HALE. I decided to get breakfast at the NAEGELEN Nooks, run by a lady named BEATRICE and her three assistants, LA VERNE HELTON, JEWELL THOMAS and LOUISE STOVER. After having breakfasted, I again went out on the street. I saw a man dressed as a clown handing out chewing gum to the passing public. CHis voice sounded mysteriously like that of Herschel Routson.-Maybe it was, maybe it wasn't, but I was certain that that policewoman over there was Ruth Thomas.J I received my stick of free chewin' gum, and-goodness, what was the name of that gum?-McFEETERS'S Masculating Mass. Soon I saw the former MARY RITA ROUTSON coming towards me. We shook hands in Montopian fashion, and soon I found that she was to be wedded on the morrow. Her maid of honor was to be Miss DOROTHY MULFORD, who was a ballet dancer on Broadway. Oh, and I muzlt tell you about her hus- band. I-Ie was made of sterling s1Iver, and his name was TOLSON. fBy the way, while 1 was in Naegelen's Nooks, I saw DENNIS, the Dish- washer and BACK, the Bal-:er.j WARDS in MIDDLETOWN A Dry Goods Store A Hardware Store A Furniture Store Shop at Wards and Save MONTGOMERY WARD' '55 CO. page eighty-seven TI-I we appreciate the privelege of printing the 1942 Monoele BROWN Sv., WHITAKER 130 N.

I spcnt that day in hunting up more old friends of high school days, and I didn't see very many, but I did see ROXIE LAWSON, BETTY LUE BACK, and MARTHA MEHL who lived together as old maids and liked it. I learned from them that MILDRED MAUPIN was running a deaf and dumb school, and that JAMES STATON had turned a Mormon by marrying both ARETTIA RICKARDS and BEDENIA VAN CLEAVE. Well, it was time for me to be taking my leave of Montopia, so I hailed a blue and gold taxi, and gave the directions to my hotel. The driver--you will never believe this-was MARCELLA MEYER, and by the way, she really drove fast. As we were whizzing around one street corner, I noticed a man whose face looked like that of .IOHNNIE MEHL'S, but he was very tall-well, maybe he was wearing stilts. When I reached the LAMBE Hotel, the bell-hop, WADE MILLER, greeted me with a rather formal salute. As I ran up the stairs, the manager, VIOLET HALL, met me on the stairs! And I told her that I was leaving. I packed my grip with the help of my valetess, and caught a taxi, which I directed to the portals of Montopia. At last we reached the gates. We passed through, and once again we were on the outside of Montopia. But how were we to get back to the Earth? At last I decided to jump, and so with a desperate resolution, I did! Down- Down-Down- At last I landed on the hard hard floor of my bedroom. I had fallen out of bed. I heard mom calling, NNAOMI, you had better be getting up if you intend to go to school this morning.
