Of course, Mr. Dean ' . , f is the head director with the Board of Education ' back of him. This board consists of six members -Lloyd Purcell, F. C. Whipple, Mrs. Carroll Clark, Lloyd Houston, A. B. Martin, and A. E. Woestemeye1'. H. L. Sutherland is the board's efficient clerk and purchasing agentg and the I I V I fl IF li, ' money matters are managed by staunch Mrs. 1A 1 3 Whit Churchill, as treasurer. The object of this board is to see that the big top has sufficient sources of income to carry on effectively, to see that our performers' health is properly attended to, and to keep our tent in good condition. The board is responsible for the election of our ringmasters, administrators and directors for the following school year. Two other familiar' faces in the board ofhce are Miss Vesta White, Mr. Dean's secretary, and Miriam Abele, who does stenographic work. Oh, yes, we mustn't forget two persons whose voices, at least, are very familiar to everyone. Ida Frances Moyer and Susie Wilkerson, L. fx f NE!-XL M.

Miss Electa Kindlesperger looks after the health of all the performers, as- sisted by Mrs. Dorothy Lang. Dr. VVray End- ers, physician, and Dr. J. I. Perry, dentist, help keep the big top in top physical condition. Probably the prineipal's office is more familiar to most of us-to some it even brings back un- pleasant memories, but to most of us this is the part that keeps us united as a happy circus family. Mr. Wherry, boss of the big show, pre- sides over this ofnce with genial Katherine Heck managing the office staff under him. Elizabeth Ochse is Mr. Wherry's stenographer. This force acts as a coordinator between the pupils and teachers and between the pup-ils and the princi- pal. It is the job of this group to record grades, keep files of' the circus family handy, and to keep track of the absences and tardinesses. 1 ' gs.

S. answers with flying colors, and this year they're red, white, and blue. Under the leadership ot' the student council with a new defense superstructure the students are falling into line for defense. The general organization of the council remained un- changed. The representatives of advisory periods still met in Room 108 under the guidance of Miss Davenport and Mr. Bailey. Max Falkenstien, president and chair- man of the service committee, served with the able as- sistance of Viee-President Stan Stockton, who headed the committee to arrange assemblies. Proceedings were kept up to the minute by Secretary Vera Margaret Hurt.. Bob Bayles, senior representative, kept social activities in a whirl, while Hugh Bayles, representative ot' the junior class, attended to the business side as activity ticket manager. Rudy Carl, sophomore representative, was chairman of the publicity committee which keeps us well informed. The War Service Activities of the Student Council con- sisted of five committees, each with a distinct and import- ant function. The Committee to Promote the Sales ot' De- fense Stamps, headed by Rudy Carl, chose March as the month for the drive to increase sales. A premium ten cent stamp was awarded with every two dollar purchase of stamps. The Air Raid Defense Committee, under Stan Stockton, made arrangements for practice drills in- volving only a few rooms at a time. An air raid warden was chosen to patrol each floor. Each advisory class was directed by a room warden, and each room was subdivid- cd into squads. .lane Woestemeyer was chairman of the Student War Service Bureau. This bureau registered every student in regard to his ability to aid in various defense activities. A group ol' student typists selected through this regis- tration and the typing classes acted as registrars in the registration for the thi1'd and fourth drafts February lti. 'llie Committee to promote the Soldiers' Book Collection Campaign, under leadership of Joanna Wagstaff, provided a box in which students might leave books for the Book Campaign. The Junior Red Cross Council was organized to direct the activities of inembe1's of the Junior Red Cross in ll. M. H. S. with Annette Bigelow, chairman. The principal project for the year which involved only if I the students of the school gi was the revision of the point system, particularly in re- Il' X . gard to student activities. The committee in charge of this work was directed by Stanley Nelson.

The circus theme was suggested and literally scooped up, because what could be gayer than a three ring circus with all its action and thrills? So early in September the staff began to prepare for the big show that would be climaxed by a party at which everyone could cast a critical eye over the year's work of the group of people known as the Red and Black StaH. A concentrated sales campaign was started in October at the Carnival, the opener for the ,school parties. At that time all who b-ought their annuals were given a fifteen or twenty-five cent reduction. This naturally boosted sales. The newest feature of our book is the use of silk screening for the division pages. This is really an old process, but as far as wfe know, it's the first time it has been used for an annual. In the process, the color is pressed through the silk screen onto the paper behind it. A stencil is placed over the screen wher'e the color is not supposed to go through. All this was done by hand, and it took five months to make 7000 impressions. One of the bright spots in the journalism room was the box of photographs. Robert Burns says: O wad some Pow'r the giftie gie us To .see ourselves as ithers see us! Some of the students would be astonished if they could see themselves as the annual staff has seen them.

Not the bill board type-the news type interests students in newspaper Journalism who work on the Budget. A Circus performance may be witnessed about any Friday when the Budgets come out. 'tWho's the who's today? Who's performing now? Is he ever a Clown! Comments before and during the Circus-getting out the Budget-are passed around among the staff. Studying ethics of news gathering, as well as the science of it, gives b-ack- ground and knowledge as gathered from the best daily papers and reference books in the Publications Department. A Junior Red Cross publicity board was formed with Joanna Wagstaff, chairman, and Joan Gibbons, editor. They are serving the school and the community in publicity stories, besides their other Budget activities on the business staff. Selma Beil has served as artist and assistant exchange editor. A study of photography, typography, and the various engraving processes is covered, as far as time permits, after the study of the newspaper makeup, style, and service.

Presenting to the world at large that superb, colossal unequalled class ever-the star performers of 1942! Il' you want to view miraculous performances and unbeliev- able feats, see these stupendous perfomers without delay. Step right this way! These top-ranking stars began as amateurs four years ago when they elected at their head Max Falkenstien, president, with Olive Flory as vice-president, Charlotte Price, secretary, David Jones, treasurer, and Don Jones, student council representative fthe latter two being from the famous Jones troupej. Such unusual progress was made during their first year in the big top that they were acclaimed outstanding novices. Taking just enough time out to reelect Max Falkenstien president, and choose John Mason for vice- president, Jane Miller, secretary, Lois Wheeler, treasurer, and Stanley Nelson, student council representative, they continued on their way to success. However, the death of two ,stars of this famous cast, Don Sands and Don Mc- Donald, saddened and somewhat dampened the perform- ers' spirits. Famed big top critics soon proclaimed the class to be good enough for the rating of starlets. Thus they emerged with more laurels and in the melee picked Ve1'a Margaret Hurt for their president, Stanley Nelson, vice president, Joanna Wagstaff, secretary, Elizabeth Prentice treasurer, and Don Jones, student council representative. They really put on a marvelous show when they presented the Junior play, Seven Sisters , starring such perform- ers as Mary Alice Martin, Marilyn Maloney, Vera Mar- garet Hurt, Beverly Essick, Barbara Roper, Betty June Craig, Ruth Yeaton, Jean Musselman, Bob White, Jack Payne, Charles Taylor, Keith Mann, Calvin Dres:'er and Geoige Ward. Agile Max Falken- stien was awarded the Olney Scholarship for Juniors. This ended a year' of glorious success. Entering their last year under the L.M.II.S. big top, the star performers elected scholarly Don Jones as their president, popular Lois VVheeler vice-president, Joan Gibbons, the girl with the cute southern drawl, as secre- tary, efficient Eloise Basom treasurer, and Deb Bayles, the boy with personality plus, as their student council representative. This year this class of stars is one of the largest in the history of the school--221 members 1129 girls and 92' boysi. Mr. Gra- ber acted as their oilieial ringmaster. Not only did these stars hold important ofhfes within their own class, but they also prezlomin- ated in other outstanding groups. Max Falkenstien was president of the Student Council while Vera Margaret Hurt was secre- tary. The first squad of the debate team was made up of three seniors, Evelyn Cooper, 3 Harry Johnson, and Bill Conboy, and one junior, Stan Stockton. This makes the third ' year Bill has starred on the first debate team. The Red and Black staff consisted entirely of seniors. John Merriot and Jane Woestemeyer, who were presidents of Hi-Y and GR. respectively, caused the class to shine even brighter. Jane received a great honor when she. was chosen the best citizen by a vote of all the stars and ringmasters. Seven senior girls are members of the G.R. cabinet: and several senior boys are on the Hi-Y cabinet. Another outstanding senior in a different field is Edwin Longanecker, president of the Future Farmers Association. A circus is not complete without music. The class was studded with musfcal stars. A majority of the first chairs in both the band and orchestra were filled by talent- ed seniors, among whom a1'e Dick Thompson, bass, Max Falkenstfen, flute, Helen Howe, oboe, Jane Woestemcyer, alto clarinet, Ralph Ward, cornet, Bob White, drums, and David Jones, French horn. Among the top athletic acrobatic performers were surh football players Clayton Stanwix, Pat Green, Glenn Lessenden, Dan Clifton, Harry Cox, and Kenneth Sperry. Stanwix, Sperry and Green also starred in basketball. The class has been lucky in more than one way in that they are required to take only American government. Mr. Cowperthwaite, who teaches college government, and Mr. Franks, non-college government teacher, are both new here this year. Both courses were enjoyable for everyone concerned, we understand. Other courses proved to be quite popular, such as English VIII and IX, one a read- ing course, the other grammar review, and trigonomctry, open to all students who have had advanced algebra. The latest accomplishment of these stars was the sen- ior play, Who Is Mrs. Chimpsie? The star-.studded cast included: Charlotte Price, Roberta Frowe, Evelyn Cooper, Elizabeth Prentice, Marigold Bennett, Bill Con- boy, Rens McClure, Ralph Pine, and John Merriot.

Under excellent lea,dership, our starlets perform well in the ring. Their president is Harry Stucker, and vice president is Frances Lawrence. In the fall, the class chose Mu1'iel Rodgers for their secretary and Bob Ellsworth as treasurer. Hugh Bayles, their representative in the Student Council, has charge of activity tickets, and Stan Stockton is vice president of the council. The sponsors of these aerial performers are Miss Bernhard, Miss Eaton, Mr. Cunningham, and Mr. Gillum, their manager. The class consists of 95 girls and S9 boys. A number of their members are lions, 16 in varsity foot- ball, and 11 in varsity basketball. The management of the junior class has arranged a three ring circus in which these starlcts may perform. They show their paces in the training of brutal verbs and clauses in the English V ring, where their efforts are encouraged, in the college classes by Miss Bernhard and Miss Harper, and in the general classes by Miss program in a radio communication dem- onstration With the cooperation of Mr. Cunningham. Two-way phone communi- cation was shown by Bill Barnett and his associates. Patsy Crcel talked as us- ual, but this time her comments were confined to the limits of a reading named Toughie. Shirleynan Hargiss hit a high note in the show as she sang 'iHi Neigh- bor, accompanied by Sue Logsdon. That the originality of these starlets is not confined to the Big Top was shown by the model airplane demonstration which followed. The construction and operation of model airplanes was described by Herbert Jella. A new feature of motion pictures of planes in flight. The program closed with the actual flight of a small plane. Just before finals, Mr. Russell, one of our dramatic coaches, decided to press our promising starlets into service again. He had chosen the play Ever Since Eve by Ryerson and Clements. A great many juniors aspired to the stage of our big 5 show , and of these a competent cast was chosen. A family group consists of Claire Viesselman, Bob Ellsworth, and Wayne Hird, who were Mrs. Clover, Johnny Clover and Mr. Clover, respec- tively. John Kapfer played the part of Spud Erwin, and Annette Bigelow became Susan Blanke. Patsy Creel was transformed into the character of Betsy Erwin, and Phy- lis Marlowe was changed to Martha Willard. Officer CCap- pyl Simmons was acted. realistically by Bill Lonnecker. Mildred Carpenter will be remembered as the lovely Luci- belle Lee. David Davidson and Don May appeared as Henry Quinn and Preston Hughes. The football players were Jim Arthur, Bob Elbel, Hugh Bayles, Ray Hicks, and Ed Pringle. Three of this year's starlets have already been billed for big performances far in advance of the next season. Stan Stockton was recently elevated from the vice-presi- dcncy of the Student Council to the presidency. The of- ficial recorder, or secretary, of the same organ'zation will be another shining light, Annette Bigelow. Bob Ells- worth was elected next year's senior representative who has charge of the school 'Anierry-go-round alais dances. Eaton.

These novices were the sophomores and a grand bunch thew were, too. Although they knew little about this new life, they learned quickly. They took part in the show governing system by electing Clifford Mc- Donald as their president, Marilyn Smart, vice president, Martha Jewett, secretary, Frieda Wray, treasurer, and Rudy Carl, representative. Besides having executive ability among the novices there was plenty of ability in other phases of the show. Several of the sophomore boys have starred in athletics. Do you remember the 34 yard run Clifford McDonald made in the game with Shawnee-Mission? This was the start of a touchdown drive and Everett Hill, another superb player, caught a pass to complete the score. This just happens to be one of the many stupendous football plays put on by the sophomore aces. Other star players who helped the starting line-up were Phil Cato, who did some magnificent defensive play, Charles Black, John Montgom- ery, and Bernard Moorman. To go on with the sports in the circus we found several .stars appearing for basket- ball. Again Everett Hill and Clifford McDonald played bang up games along with Dick Wagstaff, Bernard Moor- man, and Charles Black. A little later on in the season the races started. Black, McDonald and Wagstaif are the novices out for track and they are doing fine work. To help the novices win their games we found Julie Fox, and Dick Wagstai as cheerleaders doing their part. Behind the cheerleaders is the band which is well repre- sented with sophomore players. Rudy Carl was the first chair clarinet player with D'ck Arm- strong, Park Hetzel, who plays the brass drum which is as big as he is, Paul Hyatt, Larry Marcellus. Arthur Oatman, Adel- bert Spalsbury, Jack Twente, Elden Wil- ley, Winifred Arntlt, Ruth Craig, Mary Holtzclaw, Martha Jewett, Pat Moyer, Mabel Ann Richardson, Maxine Moody, and Marilyn Smart. While there are sev- eral sophomores in the band, there are these and more, too, in the orchestra. We have Joann Ruese, Carolyn Martin, and Ludwig Heine. Twirlers go right along with the band, and Phyllis Olm- stead and Mary Holtzclaw share the honors there. The vocalists for the group are Joan Vickers and Phillip Pine. Joan is a member of the girls' quartet and adds much to it with her beautiful voice. Among the sophomores we have sev- eral dramatists, such as Marilyn Smart, and Lila Lou Johnston, who starred in the play, Three Cornered Moon. In An- other type of drama we find Larry Mar- cellus and his readings-especially the one about brotherly love. Other actresses who starred in the Hodge Podge Hour are Donna Lou Krump and Barbara Chieks. The Tragedy of Julius Ceaser's Tonsils was presented by the Latin club for an assembly. The following performed: Don Mc- Manesis, Louis Sommer, Dick Stutz, and Donna Sue Land- rith. The assembly put on by the novices consisted of a clarinet solo by Rudy Carl, vocal solo given by Joan Vick- ers, dance presented by Barbara Chieks, cello quintet consisting of Park Hetzel, Ruth Craig, Martha Jewett, Elden Willey, and Mary Holtzclaw. There was a reading by Larry Marcellus, cornet solo played by Adel- bert Spalsbury, and an acrobatic dance given by Julia Eschbaugh. So you see the .sophomores really are very talented. Part of the sophomore troupe has turned Latinish . They have elected as their consuls Carolyn Martin and Don McManessg scriba, Louise Sommerg quaestor, Rex Talleyg tribunus populi, Victor Votawg aedile, Kenneth Hickman, lictor, Elger Talley, and pontivex maximus, Lila Lou Johnston. When the Junior Red Cross was started the sophomores did their part by choosing Anne Trosper, Donna Lou Kump, Eugene Johnson, Gleniece Cox, Delbert Anderson, Leslie Hardtarfer, Julie Fox, Virginia Winters, Marilyn Smart, and Phyllis Ellis, to help collect from the students in their classes. If anything ever' goes wrong with the novices the sponsors are usually somewhere about. They are Miss Ruttan, Mr. Bruce, Miss Parry, and Miss Spang- ler. The sophomores are really quite a bunch of troupers even though they are called novices. Flash!Here's the latest! Rudy Carl is next year's vice- president of the student council, and Dick Potter is the 1943 Junior representative, according to the recent elec- tion. Three cheers for our novices.

The freshman class, which originated in 1936, is made up mostly of pupils from rural schools in Douglas County. There are ninety-five members, forty-two girls and fifty- three boys. The class oflicers are: President, Glen Jo- hanningg Vice President, Norraine Roll, Secretary, Aug- usta Hadlg Treasurer, Mildred Ambler, and Student Council Representaitve, Billy Nichols. Although there were no freshmen on either the football or basketball teams this year, there were members in the freshman football team and in the cubs basketball squad who seem to be promising' future stars of L.M.H.S. Every year this class has charge of Freshman Day, held this year on Thursday, May 14, on which it entertained the rural graduates. They were wel- comed by Mr. Wherry, and the class ofiicers and sponsors we1'e introduced. They also watched sev- eral demonstrations, a musical program, and a mov- ing picture talkie. It was an all-day entertainment to better acquaint the new freshmen with L.M.H.S. Even though the freshmen are called the ama- teurs, they a1'e so ably coached by their class spon- , sor, Mr. Williams, and Miss Orelup and Mr. Russell that they have outgrown the amateur stage and are now ready to become novices next fall. One bit of fun and pleasure the Amateurs enjoy, that is denied the 1'est of the school, is the trip to school. They have the privilege of seeing the beauty of the country every day while the rest of us get out once a week-or month, according to the thickness of the tires on our cars.

Page 31 ANEU EE Some students may not agree with the statement: 'tLanguages at L. M. H. S. have all the interests of a three ring circus. Perhaps the reason the Language Department has never struck you as being as fascinating as a circus is that you have to put a little work into it to master it, whereas as a real honest-to-goodness circus, you let the other fellow do the work. Think for a mo- ment?- The English classes are the main or center ring of the circus. The ringmasters are the Misses Ruttan, Bernhard, Harper, Parry, Eaton, and Mr. Russell. These iingmasters may crack the whip many times, but how else can they make you show off to the very best of your ability? Did you ever stop to think that very probably the most beautiful circus rider, the funniest clown, the most handsome acrobat could not conjugate a verb nor say with a clear conscience that he or' she had never split an infinitive? Another of the prominent attractions in the spotlight, is the Latin classes. The ringmaster is Mr. Johnson. Dur- ing their daily performances they present ancient Latin myths and play Vinco, a game very similar to our Am- erican Bingo. Between shows the student performers ga li is V i i X ' OJ 'C f, I f LA i Grille Fv-egl,'.',.,. Page 32 improve themselves by reading Auxiliam Latinum, Class- ical Outlook, and the Classical Journal, three Latin maga- zines. The French classes present only one show daily. Mrs. McCord has charge of this performance. The entire show is done principally in French. The actors study their parts from their standard French book, One Adventure in France. They take their acting se1'iously, so after the show, they usually study French composers or French paintings that are famous. The newest attraction sharing in this language cir- cus is the Spanish classes. Mrs. Johnson is the ring- master. Their entire performance is in Spanish in order that the perfnrnifrrs beccme better acquainted with the language. One of their best-liked acts was the chorus which sang songs in Spanish. Another interesting musical project iii Spanish was the quartette composed of Sue Logsdon, Mildred Carpenter, Anabel Keeler, and Joan Vickers, all Spanish students. After the main show, the performers spend much of their time reading To Mexico by Automobile, a Spanish text. This year's linguistic experts, however, did not con- iine their actions to the classroom, in fact, two of the Lat- in shining lights, Billy Daggett and Lowell Bailey, im- parted some of their interesting Roman knowledge to the Co-op club while the latter was dining in our cafeteria during careers clinic week. they put on a demonstration of Roman apparel that took the spectators back, at least visually, to the days of Caesar. Two representative pictures of the language depart- ment at work are shown at the top of this page. At the left, we have a photograph of his year's Roman banquet, the high spot of the 1942 Latin season, at the right we find a picture of Mrs. McCord's French class as it actu- ally functions. This concludes the review of the language circus. Adois para ahora-goodbye for now. i LM Social Sciences Any performer in our big show isn't likely to forget social science as it's p1'ovided for all, from amateur to star. Amateurs may take civics, but by the time they be- come novices, their period of freedom is over. As novices, they are required to learn about the history of the world. This study is most enlightening, for it is there that they meet the elephants of Hannibal and the feudal lo1'ds of the Middle Ages. A novice whose head is full of Sophocles, Napoleon, and Henry the Vlllth, has barely time to take a big AEHUBATS In order to keep their figures trimmed down and to keep themselves in good condition, the student perform- ers train daily. At the beginning of the fall and winter season, in Sep- tember, the girls went in for tennis. They practiced on on the two basic ground strokesgthe forehand and back- hand strokes. When the weather would no longer per- mit their outdoor activity, they resumed their training on the volley ball courts in the gym. These strenuous games are hne to keep a person tit, but the girls needed some relaxation, so their trainer, Miss D. J. Willcuts, planned a dancing period fo1' them. While they we1'e enjoying themselves, they also learned some points of dancing etiquette. Too much dancfng and ,social life might have a tendency to make the young per- formers lazy, so basketball and a new game called goal- hi were sta1'ted. The drab winter months were coming to an end, and the girls thought of their spring and summer costumes which they would wear this season and they realized they had to trim off all extra pounds. Exercises and mild sports such as aerial darts, shuffle board, and deck tennis were started to help trim them down. When spring came, the girls were all ready to step into their brief costumes and play some vigorous games-ten- nis and baseball. As much as the boys dislike admitting it, they want to keep trim and good looking as much as the girls. l breath before he becomes a starlet and must remember Matthew Arnold, tte Tweed Ring, and the Boston Tea Party. At the end of the year, a starlet is usually very accomplished, having learned in American history to make a map of the United States and to invest on the stock market. This magnificent show ends with American government and sometimes the end of the stars. However, a star who can express himself and at the same time remember U Saw, the county officers, and Nikolaevsk will be a fea- ture attraction. TRAINING They go in for more vigorous sports such as touch football and baseball. They started these games early in the fall, and when they could no longer warm up over a good game of football, they started tumbling exercises in the gym. They worked on the parallel bars, spring board, and rings. Their trainer, Mr. Schaake, next taught them the fund- amental principles of basketball. The performers worked hard all winter, and they have not let up their training just because of spring fever. They played .soft ball and tennis, and some of the boys were interested in archery. 0 , N 44, - , Z W X .ex x. ,f 1 5 ., f ,tw 4 W- W f ' ei ig . . k X 31 2 Q. ii as Tl Frbtliicxr-15 T ,W 4 , Page 253 What would a circus do without its attractive bill- boards? Our big top has alluring art work, too. The skillful ringmaster of this important division is Miss Wilson. She conducts classes in both art and artcrafts. The art course includes water color painting, fashion drawing, pen and ink sketching, nature drawing, and HT the study of color. The students work on leather, metal, clay, and baskets in art crafts. Although all the classes have their bright and shining performers, it would appear as though the fourth hour class, made up of both art and crafts students, had an overdose of stars. This winter, when the Kansas Highway Patrol spon- sored a safety patrol contest, Jane Eby, a junior starlet in the famed fourth hour troupe, walked OH with one of the secondary prizes. This was one of the most outstanding of many honors bestowed upon our famous big top. As if this weren't enough, Hurla Jean Goodfellow and Billie Froeliger rated gold stars, signifying su- perior rating on all points of their work, at the Art Conference held at the university. Much credit is given the art department and Miss Wilson for their superb work in helping with the silk-screening process used in making the division pages for this book. This process proved to be very satisfactory and economical although it took a great deal of time. A drawing is made and then transferred to a silk screen by placing a film over the part which is not to be printed a certain color. This screen is then placed on a frame. The paper is placed in this frame and a squeegee, a tool with a hard rubber edge, is used to press the paint through the screen onto the paper. Commerce The young performers enjoy the colorful gay circus life as a sideline, but everyone of them is serious about the future and what it holds for him. The ringmasters appreciate their performers' foresight and they try to help them all they can. i For instance, the ringmasters Windett and Gillum teach their students more than just the art of enjoying themselves -they teach them the fundamentals of ' commercial business. Typing and shorthand are essential to all those who want to become secretar- ies and stenographers. The typing of manuscripts and long letters gives the up-and-coming student practice in writ- ing long articles correctly. Cables, telegrams, invoices, and order blanks take more skill, so they come after the student has learned the typewriter key- board. Well and has had experience using it. Shorthand presents a system of swift writing for those who plan to con- tinue with a secretarial career. A large amount of practice is required, for the shorthand characters must flow swiftly and smoothly from the student's pencil. It is just as important to the secretary as it it to the aerial artist in the circus to have smoothness and poise. Page 34 Bookkeeping is just one step nearer to an efiicient secretary. The bookkeeping class uses Hpractice setsi' which correspond to real business transactions. Ucahunf-il The Future Farmers of America, under the sponsorship of Mr. Essick, consists this year of fifty-two members. The elected officers were: presidfent, Edwin Longnecker, vice-president, Edwin Steele, treasurer, Warren Banning, secretary, Dale Powell, and reporter, Charles Coral. This club meets every Wednesday third hour and takes up such projects as collecting the twenty-five tons of metal which gave them second. place among the 185 FFA Chapters in Kansas for collecting the most metal for de- fense. This year the future farmers average about 25i projects per' student. Because of the tire rationing program the judging team, consisting of Moreland Baldwin, Jack Anderson and Edwin Longnecker, attenfed only the state contest which was held on April 27. The FFA has a part in two assemblies this year. On March 20 they gave an interesting assembly on poultry and poultry production. While Charles Corel pointed out the various breeds of chickens which were arranged in coops on the stage, several other FFA boys described their characteristics. Earl Mitchell after giving a talk on eggs, threw one of his best specimens into the audience. Don't be alarmed, it was filled with rice. They also helped with the Drive for Victory Gardens assem- bly. Billy Daggett and Earl Mitchell gave advisory talks on locations of gardens and how to plant and cultivate different vegetables. The Home Ec department helped in this asscmbly by having two foods' students, Joanne VVagstafl' and Patsy Creel, give talks on how to preserve these vegetables by freezing and canning. Last fall the old members initiated the new members Training by giving them a watermelon feed+and a paddling-at Brown's Grove. Their social activities have consisted of the Father and Son Banquet on November 19 and a Christmas Party on December' 16. They also had ,their annual chili feed in April. Our printing department is under the sponsorship of Mr. Graber. The students learn the kin-ds of types, sizes, proof marks and other words of the printers vocabulary before they start setting up type. One can take three years of printingg and if you're good enough you can be- come a shop foreman, a person who sees that things are running smoothy. We have four presses which are kept busy setting up type for our school activity programs. This department has done its part for defense by print- ing air raid. pamphlets and rules to go by to save tires. Mr. Emmett is in charge of the mechanical drawing and woodwork classes in the morning. He also is in charge of the stage settings for plays. Mr. Miller takes over the woodwork classes in the after- noon. The students can make anything they choose, rang- ing from hog houses to finger bowls. The students in auto mechanics, headed by Mr. Logs- don, have spent their time in learning to be a real mechan- ic. Many of the boys have done apprentice work in some downtown garage. First semester was spent studying an auto mechanic book and learning the parts of a car. Each student spent one week in the tool room to enable him to know the tools. Second semester, the boys had the privilege to bring their own cars in the shop to work on. Mr. Graber oversees his printing students' work. How- ever, several b-oys find the photographer more attractive than their printing duties. Here these auto mechanic students are tinkering with various car parts. It's dirty business, but it's very essent- ial in these war days. Page 35 athematits and Sl3ienl3e5 VVho said mathematics and a circus didn't have any- thing in common? Folks, haven't you noticed all those little 'tfiguresl' playing havoc on the blackbeards or bill- boards, as the case may be? One drawing ca1'd for this department is that it guarantees improvement of figures! Our math department is a four-ring showfgeneral math, algebra felementary and advanccdj, geometry fplane and solidb, and trigonometry. Our mathematical ringmasters are Miss Rayhill, Mr. Bailey, and Miss New- man. Trig, a very intriguing and advanced subject, isn't as hard as its name would indicate. Field problems, such as measuring the height of the flag pole on top of Fraser Hall without leaving the high school grounds, proved to be one of the most interesting projects of the semester. Maybe you can remember seeing the trig students after school measuring and rcmeasuring distances, tearing and retearing their hair, just because they missed the ans- we1's an inch or so! In solid geomet1'y, a one-semester subject as is trig, theorems learned in plane geometry are discarded as, untrue simply because the figures dealt with in solid are lifted out of just one plane and formed into solids. Advanced algebra, also a single-semester course, deals with more involved equations and more ad- vanced use of radicals than is taught in first-year alge- bra. Some equations were so long and drawn out that they could hardly be Written in one line across the paper, even when turned lengthwise. All of these three subjects are taught exclusively by Miss Rayhill. In plane geometry one learns about many objects in all shapes and forms, as long as they stay in one plane. One not only gains knowledge here but also acquires a greater power of correct thinking. Mr. Bailey is the sole teacher of this course. First-year algebra, taught by Miss New- man, is composed chiefly of simpler equations and word problems. General mathematics classes, with Miss Rayhill and Miss Newman taking charge, learn the more practic- Page 36 al side of mathematics since the students there do not, as a 1'ule, intend to go ahead with higher math. Such pro- jects as measurements, work with simple geometric con- structions, and percentages, are carried on by these classes. No circus show would be complete without a ringside view of the science represented by Mr. Wood's chemistry classes, Miss Carpenter's biology classes, and Mr. Cun- ningham's physics classes. If you go into our chemistry classroom, you may find the students busy cooking up queer-smelling mixtures in order to learn the effects of various chemicals on other substances. Or, perhaps on another day, you will find all the embryo chemists of' L.M.H.S. working hard, calculat- ing molecular weights and various percentage composi- tions. Miss Carpenter teaches her biology classes about plants and animals. Perhaps you have wandered into room eight and found all the students squinting into micro- scopes in a futile search for the elusive paramecium and ameba. On another day, you might have confused the biology laboratory with the Budget classroom, for the students were reading newspapers. However, they were hard at work, trying to feed their families on 352.50 per person per week. The students felt that this was one of their most interesting projects, During the first semester the physics classes made various experiments on electricity, batteries, and motors. While studying electricity, they learned to figure their own light bills. The second semester, the students stud- ied sound and light waves. A very interesting assembly was given by the physics classes. Early in the spring, M1'. Cunningham, whose picture is at the left, departed for Washington to work for the Navy. His services to the entire school were invaluable. Mrs. Robertson has taken his place.

The product will be much richer if a year's course in Advanced Foods is added. This ingredient contains a pro- gram outlined along the study of the foodstuffs-proteins, carbohydrates, fats and oils, vitamins, minerals, and water. Whip together the actual serving of breakfasts, lunches, dinners, parties, and food for the sick until the mixture stands alone. Stir in practice in canning and marketing for meals, which the students have planned. This recipe provides enough servings to promote in- terest in the home.

Q.. f ai - -2. ff' 1 if-:Q f, A ' R xx 7 X of atv 4, 3QQ,..,4 Eosiumes A part of our Hbig Show which you might not at first consider when observing the array of performances before you is the division in charge of costumes. But, to any girl who has had a little experience he1'e, it represents a vital part of her life and this is only the beginning, folks, only the beginning! In only one semester, a girl can learn to use a sewing machine, by first sewing dish towels and aprons and finally acquiring the ability to make herself a simple dress of cot- ton. If she desires a second semester's work, she is able to make more difli- cult garments of rayon and woolens. The advanced classes in a year fashion skirts, jackets, slacks, street dresses and clothes for someone else. These girls not only know how to make new clothes, they learn to prac- tice thrift. Darning wool, materials and styles, and how to know quality in a b-argain are not mysteries to Miss Orelup's students. A course in sewing does not over- look the ways of making a gracious home. Hours of discussion are spent on home decoration, related art, and the selection of furnishings and art. During the second semester, the classes passed on some of this information to homemakers through six radio broadcasts. Girls in the sewing classes know how to sew a fine seam , but they know too how to darn, how to make plackets, and how to mend rips and tears. Page 37 Football Every Big Show has a menagerie, but many football opponents of L.M.H.S. this year found it was no circus to play against our Lions. Coaches Schaake and Bruce were confronted by a com- paratively green squad last fall, having only Pat Green and Kenny Sperry, backfield stalwarts, back from the 1940 starting lineup. By mid-season, however, the Lions were showing all the ferocity of their jungle namesake. In fact Lawrence rolled up a total of 86 points in their last three contests while holding their opponents scoreless. Their conference record of 3 wins, 2, losses, and 1 tie brought fourth place in league standings home to the Lawrence huskies. One pleasing factor of the Lions' play during the season was their ability to score. Lawrence rang up 128 points in league play, more than any other conference member. Upper left: The opposition breaks through our stalwart lines. Upper right: As due reward for their fine play, several members of the Lawrence team were named in various all-star selec- tions. Pat Green, line-smashing fullback, received a third team berth in all-state choices, b-esides meriting a first team position on the all-conference aggregation. Pat led the league in scoring during the season with 57 points. Kenny Sperry, shifty halfback, received a post on the con- ference second team, as did Wayne Hird, the Lions' rugged center. Fred Jaedicke, guard, and Tommy Patch- en, tackle, were given honorable mention ratings. Eight members of this years squad are seniors: Clay- ton Stanwix, endg Kenney Sperry, halfbackg Fred Jaed- icke, guard, Tommy Patchen, tackle, Pat Green, fullback, Glen Lessenden, tackle-all in the starting line-upg Dan Clifton, quarterbackg and Harry Cox, tackle-dependable reserves.

There were three lettermen back from last yc-ar's squad around which a team could be built: Kenny Sperry, Pat Green, and Harry Stueker. The first game at Pittsburg' was a redeletter event in the minds of the players because it Was an overnight af- fair, the first sueh trip for three years. Senior basketball stars playing their last season as Lions include Pat Green, Kenneth Sperry, Glenn Lessen- den, Harry Cox, Max Kennedy, Clayton Stanwix, Bob Treeee, Karl Kappelman, and Bob Black. Flashy basketeers who will return next year include Clifford McDonald, Everett Hillg juniors, Jimmy Stev- ens, John Pickens, Paul Penny, Harry Stucker, Charley Black, Bobby Green, Bernard Moorman, Charley Robertson Perhaps the most pleasing aspect of the basketball team was the peppery game which they played from a spectators's standpoint. There was never a dull moment in any of the Lions' contests, and all yho watched, were kept on the edge of their seats. Upper left-Back row: C. Black, Robertson, Penny, B. Black, Fritz, Moorman.

S. athletic events were the track and field experts of the school. From the- basket- ball court to the cinder path was a .short jump for the Lion stalwarts, anxious to establish Lawrence superiority in another field of high school competition. Stars returning from last year's aggregation included Harry Johnson, star broad jumper and sprinter, Kenny Sperry, high jumper and weight master, and Charley Black, javelin star. Besides these lettermen, other squad members who showed up well in early meets were Bill Payne, Cliff McDonald, Paul Penny, Jimmy Stevens, Ho- bart Woody, Dick Wagstaff, Keith Mann, Leroy Robinson, and Ogden Jones. The season opened with an inter-class combat, which in turn was followed by a triangular meet at Haskell Stad- ium with Haskell, Ottawa, and Lawrence participating. In this contest, Kenneth Sperry took top honors with a first place in the discus throw and second in the shot put and high jump. Next came the K. U. Interscholastic event on the Hill. During the succeeding week, the Lions engaged in a quadrangular contest with Paola, Osawa- tomie, and Ottawa, coming out the victor. On the follow- ing week-end, the Lion stalwarts engaged in the Baker Relays, Sperry garnering a third in the high jump and Lawrence sprint medley relay team capturing another third in their event. So far this year two new Liberty Memorial High. School track records have been broken by our boys. Kenny Sperry tossed the discus to a new distance of 130, 1016 eclipsing the old mark of 130' 4 . Leroy Robinson in his turn heaved the javelin 165' 11 to better the old mark of 159' l . This was as far as the season had progressed when the annual went to press, but coming track functions include the League meet at Atchison, the Regional meet, and the State meet. Here's hoping the Lions are on the track of even more Victor- ies. To many, the sideshows are the most interesting part Back row: Coach Schaake, Rob- ertson, Green, McDonald, Wag- staff, Mann, Pickens, Combest, Stevens, Johnson, Jones. Front row: Black, Penny, Campbell, Kappelman, Barks- dale, Payne, Woody, Sperry, and Robinson. Page 42 of any circus. In L. M. H. S., two side shows which have really come to the front are golf and tennis. The golfing enthusiasts of the high school began con- gregating around the print shop early in the spring, as Mr. Graber issued the first call for practice. The Lion club-swingers who have turned out this year are as follows: Max Kennedy, Bob Treece, Jimmy Archer, and Alvin Roper fwho make up the traveling squadjz and Bob Moore, Charles Oehrle, and Marigold Bennett. High spots of the season before this publication went to press were the hole-in-one which Jimmy Archer manufactured on the Lawrence course, and the medalist honors which Max Kennedy carried away at the conference tournament in Leavenworth with a sparkling 79. The L.M.H.S. net men , under the able tutelage of Mr. Graber turned out early and eager this year. The tourn- ament squad of this year included the following: Dean Gibson, Stanley Nelson, Glenn Lessenden, Bob Bayles, Rudy Carl, Bill Fowler, and Bruce Wilder. Others out for the team were Jimmy Richardson, Norman Hack, Stan Stockton, Phil Stockton, Kay Butler, Dick Potter, and Rens' McClure. Here's wishing both aggregations lots of success in the future. Flash: Reports have just been received on the outcome of the week-end's athletic activities, at the- Regional track meet in Leavenworh, the Lawrence huskies came through to cop fourth place. Harry Johnson scored a first in the broad jumpg Leroy Robinson heaved the javelin for top honors in his event, Kenny Sperry scored in three events--third places in both discus and shot put, and fourth in high jump, Paul Penny placed fifth in shot put, and the Lion 880-yard relay tied for third in their race, while the mile relay aggregation grabbed off a fifth place. Nice going, Lions! Also, news just arrived telling that Lion tennis doubles team by their victory Saturday in Topeka became eligible for the state tournament. Dean Gibson and Stanley Nel- son are the Lawrence victors. Fine stuff, boys!

Don't miss the big event! Come one, come all! By this familiar chant, we can all recognize the lusty cii cus banker as he vocalizes for the passers-by. The L. M. H. S. counter- part of this big-show veteran was easily found any afternoon Curing the debate season in Mr. Cowpc-rthwaite's room as the school experts in argumentation as- scmbled to exercise their powers of per- suasion in preparation for coming tourn- aments. This year, the L. M. Il. S. traveling debate squad was composed of the fol- lowing: students: first team-Stan Stockton rnd Harry Johnson on the af- firmative, and Evelyn Cooper and Bill Conboy on the negative: second team- lUliz:il'e1h Prentice and Mary Alice Mar- tin on the aflirmative, and Alan Stewart and Lowell Bailey on the negative. The season started otl' on home ground with the K. U. Legislative Assembly and Debaters' Conference. This was in turn followed, by speech jousts at Topeka, Clay Center, Wyan- dotte, and Emporia. During the course ot' these various tournaments, the Lawrence verbal giants compiled a record of over' 60 per cent victories against exceedingly strong' competition. To wind up the season, the first team participated in the District Debate Tournament on Mt. Cread, coming' out on even terms with some of the best teams in the state-including Topeka, state champion. Though the season was otlicially terminated after this contest, the participants have found the information as- similated and the contacts made to be of lasting' value in other work and activities. Uuill and Scroll This year the V for Victory idea was presented at the Quill and Scroll initiation ceremony and supper which was held, March 16, for Lawrence and Leavenworth students in the L.M.H.S. cafeteria. The menu was prepared under the supervision of Miss Anne Lorimcr. It was the same as the Victory lunch serv- ed to the students and faculty on March 6. Dr. J. W. Ashton, head of the K. U. English depart- ment, was the guest speaker. The initiation and program 0, ltlftwf, V s e X , 1' rox, Page 44 were in chaige of Barbara McBeth and Max Falkenstien, senior members of Quill and Scroll. The ccremeny was presented by these Quill and Scroll alumni: Miriam and Maurice Abele, Billy Joe Dill, Thornton Mc- Clanahan, Doris Brewster, Nathan Mendenhall, and Max Falkenstien who were elected to Quill and Scroll last year. Mr. Wherry, as principal, conducted the initiatinn service, assisted by these alumni who, as candlelighters, discussed the characteristic qualities of good journalists: truth, leadership, initiative, opportunity, loyalty, en- lightenment, and friendship. He was assisted by Miss Harper, and J. T. Craig, Leavenworth sponsor.

Religion is very essential as a part of school activities. Going along hand-in-hand with religious principles and democratic ideals, the Grl Re- serve organization, with a membership of approximately 180 girls, played a priceless part in aiding the national defense program by collecting old papers and magazines, now so vitally needed by our government, and by starting an organization of Bundles for Britain. Although all Hi-Y The Hi-Y is a religious organization for boys. It is a part of the Y. M. C. A. It was first organized in 1884, by George Williams, a 19-year-old country boy when he began work in a draper's shop in London. He had left his home and his friends behind him and was striking out for himself in the World's greatest city. In his work George found that among his fellow workers moral conditions were bad. Williams and his roommate set about to remedy their conditions by organizing meetings for their Page 46 girls in high schools may belong to the latter group, a number of the members this year were also G. R. girls. The entire group of Girl Reserves has adopted the code beginning gracious in manner, impartial in judg- ment, ready for service, loyal to friends. One of our most capable and dependable girls, Jane Woestemeyer, was elected to the club presidency. Others with the same high ideals were elected to the other offices and committee chairmanships. Patsy Creel was vice-president and chair- man of the membership committee, Frieda Wray was sec1'etary, and Ruth Yeaton, treasurer. The heads of the various committees were Frances Mee, publicity, Vera Margaret Hu1't, social, Claire Viesselman, service Helen June Wise, world fellowship, Evelyn Cooper, program, Annette Bigelow, music, and Charlotte Price, finance. Miss Carpenter was our helpful general adviser. Religious guidance is emphasized along with frank discussions about everyday problems. G. R. gives girls training and experience in leadership which will be so important in the fu- ture. They faee life squarely and Hfind and give their best. Hi-Y Continued fellow workers. From this group of young fellows was formed the first Y. M. C. A. The Y. M. C. A. spread to parts of London, through England, and then to America. Today the Y. M. C. A. is active in fifty different countries. In 1889 the first High School Y.M.- C. A. Was organized at Chapman, Kan- sas. Up until then, the Y. M. C. A. was 1'estricted to older fellows. There are now 4,802 Hi-Y clubs in the Unit- ed. States, with a membership of 115,500. The purpose of the Hi-Y is To create, maintain and extend thru-out the school and community high stand- ards of Christian character. The Hi-Y creed is as follows: Clean Speech, Clean Sports, Clean Scholarship and Clean Living. The development of the mental, physical, and spiritual aspect of life is represented by the three-sided emblem of the club, in the center of the triangle is a white cross to represent the purity of Christ. The club sponsors are Mr. Wood, Mr. Emmett, and Mr. Franks. Mr. Wood advises the program, finance and pub-- licity committeesg Mr. Emmett advises the service com- mittee, and Mr. Franks the social committee. The ofiicers of the club are: president, John Merriott, vice president, Wayne Hird, secretary, Harry Johnson and treasurer, Chas. Taylor. 4 mil-is Business L. M. H.

This group leads all in- and-out of school sports, floor work, and girls games. Supervising the work is Miss Dorothy J. Willcuts, Physical Education instructor for the girls in L. M. H. S.
