Janet Reazin, Jean Mussel an, NTS MINISTH TURB No show can run smoothly without its brain- tru,sters . Natur'ally, since ours is a good show, , ,. we have our administrators. 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.

S. graduates, managed the popular switch- board before the economy move removed it from the show equipment. 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. J' vx, I 4 Page 5 K Q 1 gpg X :I 'J ,tfcfes V i

DIHEETUHS Whether it's the blare of the caliope or the call to arms, li. M. H. 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 Student Council, a true legislatuve body in a democratic institution, keeps abreast ol' the times, at the Nl - El f LY ti emi: ,.,,1,',,,, head ot' the parade.
