Nothing is left to them of the little they ever had, and they are now faced with hunger and cold in their empty house. Three Kings on their way to Bethlehem stop at the hut and ask to be taken in for the night. Amahl and his mother welcome them as well as they can, and are much astonished at the splendor of their robes and the wealth of gifts they are carrying with them. Under cover of darkness, while the Three Kings are asleep, the mother steals some ofthe gold from them . . . and is caught. When she explains to the Kings that she needs this gold to feed her starving child, she is readily forgiven. With great tenderness they try to explain to her who this newborn child is . .. Touched by their words, the poor widow gives back the stolen gold. Amahl impulsively hands to the Three Kings his wooden crutch, his most precious possession, and in doing so he is miraculously cured of his lameness. Ragged and worn shepherds arrive at the humble hut to pay homage to the kings providing a beautiful back- ground with blending and shading of voices.

Unusual about this play was the absence of scenery, but the audience saw love, marriage, and death, with gaps of 'time filled in by the Stage Manager.

This organiza- tion was in the past strictly for photography en- thusiasts and directed by Mr. George Fors. Now, under adviser Miss Rita Baumann, it includes any student, Freshman through Senior, interested in any phase of science. The club is divided into different groups with dif- ferent projects. One of these small groups is the Camera club . . . the group which, from the founding of the organization in 1950 until this year, was the Science club. ' One of the club's undertakings this year was the Science Fair. They not only entered their best projects in it, but they assumed complete charge of the display of proiects, and directed people who came to the exhibit around the gymnasium where the Fair was held. Through this and other projects the club fulfills its purpose of arousing in others an interest in science. 1, l IZ5 'L l'll0 I llYIIlfll0lill.ll'Il N I into nw: ri climaxed by Science Fair , 4 -rsr- 4- ' X is -4 H191-'E Science Fair of '55 . . . larger turnout this year than last . . . probably because interest was built up through lost year's success . . . also because of a larger and more diversified Science club backing it, Shown here helping students put the finishing touches on their pro- iects is Mr. George Fors . . . largely responsibile for first Science Fair, still a big help to students who need it, DUE! 112: HBH u, g Science Fair of '54 . , . over lO0 exhibits in first year of trial for a Science Fair in Mandan.

Mandan's outstanding athletes, commonly known as M club, include in their ranks any- one who has earned a letter in athletics. To accomplish this, it is necessary to take part in either football, basketball, or track, with var- ious qualifications. ln football a boy must participate in at least nine quarters of play. For a basketball letter, seventeen quarters are at least ten points in the course of a season. Once these requirements have been met, the boy receives a letter, M and becomes a mem- ber of M club. M club has as its primary pur- pose stimulation and encouragement of interest in athletics by giving the boys recognition for participation in interscholastic athletics. lt is truly an organization of outstanding athletes. needed, while for track, it is necessary Voiceless, exhausted, and hilariously happy after pulling up with their second championship in a row are these members of the Bobby Sox team.

Magicians' Huizenga tries to scare a determined Howard Koch with a little black magic as Marv Knoll moves in to break the spell. Braves spend season sharpening Mandan's braves opened their l95-4-55 basketball season with a de- cisive defeat at the hands of the unpredictable Bismarck Demons. This was followed by a string of six more defeats to St. Mary's, St. Leo's, Jamestown, Minot, Williston, and Dickinson respectively before the Braves finally moved into the win column with a resounding 64-31 victory over the league-leading Rugby Panthers. This, plus a victory over Class B New Salem, invigorated the Braves and sent them into the final half of the season with a more optimistic outlook. Bismarck again beat the Braves, this time in a close, hardfought contest. After a defeat at the hands of Jamestown's Blueiays, dumping the Braves into the Western Conference cellar, Mandan was feelin' mighty low. But the Braves rebounded into the win column again by defeating a powerful Dickinson quintet in a real thriller. Shucks, missed the tackle . . .

'l Duffey bites the dust W jump during the St. r . hatchets for next year For the next three weeks and four games, the Braves inhabited the loss column with losses to Rugby, Minot, Williston, and St. Mary's pushing them into the hole. Bouncing out of the loss column, the Braves finished the season with two successful out- ings, one against New Salem and the other against St. Leo's. Even though the prediction of many experts, that the Mandan Braves would hold the cellar spot in the Western Conference, came true, the Braves somewhat contradicted the forecasters' ideas as to the outcome of the Western Conference Tournament in Williston, as they upset favored Saint Mary's and went on to give the Bismarck Demons a battle before the Bismarckers finally won the Consolation Championship. The Western Conference is well aware of the fact that the Braves will only lose three men through graduation, and that this was only a season of sharpening hatchets for the Braves in prepara- tion for next year.

Under the superb guidance of Coach Jim Rolando, C squad players handled themselves like pros although this was the first year in organized basketball for many of them. Just a look at their sea- sons record will prove that they not only played good ball against other C squads, but against more skilled opposi- tion, namely the New Salem B squad, they played an even better brand of ball. 3 6.4 X gas: C SQUAD: ROW ONE: N.

B squad . . . our stars of tomorrow . . . is composed of basketball players who are for enough advanced in their basketball to be past C squad, but who are not quite ready for A squad. The Pops, nickname for the small Braves . . . had a final season record of 5 wins and 4 losses, a good record consid- ering the fact that the losses were by a few points each time and could iust as easily have been wins. Coach Hans Grunseth must be praised for working with these boys and for developing them into what we may find as the future stars of M.H.S. ln review it can be said that since most of these players are Freshmen and Sophomores, a person cannot be too op- timistic when looking into the future of M.H.S. as a king-pin of North Dakota Class A basket- ball.

Mandan vs. Casselton The Braves' first test came when a powerful Class B team from Casselton visited the home of the Braves. The Mandan eleven unleashed a versatile running and pass- ing attack to stun the Class B Squirrels 12-O and collect their first scalp in the first game of the new 1954 grid season on September 10th. Mandan vs. Jamestown Mandan's third encounter found them traveling to Jamestown to battle the Blueiays, who later captured the W e s t e r n Conference Crown. The Jays bewildered the Braves in the first half by pure power plays up the middle to gain a TD, the upper hand, and eventually to fight off the Braves threat to win the game. Final score, 7-6. Let Jac Sauter '4, is tackled by Gordon Prez er of Bismarck, as Eddie Agre moves in to assist past Larry Myers l7i. Mandan vs. Bismarck After the Casselton outing the Bismarck Demons, pre- dicted by many experts to cop the Western Conference Crown, visited the Braves to try their giddy gridiron gumption against the Men- acing Mach Men of Man- dan. But the never-say-die Braves, never said it, and the game ended in a dead- lock at 0-0. Xxx We'll get these guys in the alley tonight , . .

Mandan vs. Williston After the Saints carried their weary warriors back to home-sweet-home, the Braves, still hungry for a conference win, visited Williston, the home of the Coyotes. It took the Braves iust one period to score 13 points while it took Williston the whole game to score 12 points . . . This was the latter's homecoming cele- bration. Mandan vs. Minot After the gala atiair at Williston the Braves were homeward bound to cele- brate their homecoming. With the Minot Magicians os op- ponents, the final score was Mandan 19, Minot 0. Mandan vs. Dickinson The midgets of Dickinson proved to the over-confident Braves that they too could play football despite their low standings. All Class A Mandan vs. St. Mary's After this heart-breaker, the Braves returned home to meet the defending Western Conference champs, the St. Mary's Saints. The Saints were disappointed that night because they were pushed back across the muddy Missouri after being held to o tie at 12-12. circles were surprised by the upset of the Braves at the hands of the Midgets by a 20-6 count. After the Dickinson catas- trophe the Braves traveled to Rugby where the Panthers were in their first year of Class A competition. To prove that the Dickinson game was only a slip-up and not q sign of weakness, Mandan scored a 14-6 win over the riled, rugged, and ready Rugby eleven. ms H 'f A ? , v . MQ D -rx is-34.

Coach Jim Ro- lando's next stop was at Valley City where the State championship was being held. Among the top thirty finalists in this tournament the Braves were success- ful enough to place in the top twenty. Mandan's outstanding Charles Huddle- son grabbed 6th place, Ronald Mrnak placed 10th, Gale Gretterman notched l2th place, Jerry Emil garnered 'l4th position, while Danny Corey pulled into the 'l9th slot. Because all these boys are underclassmen, and because of their showing in the tournament last year we say North Dakota golfers watch out. in 'ill il abr I I . --....... Each year a host of boys from the seventh through twelfth grades enioy intramurals. The boys form teams and submit their names to their director, Mr. John Mach, who arranges a schedule of games to be played. Each team plays almost as often as our B or A squads. The teams play for the championship and, for top honors, are rewarded by receiv- ing ribbons. From the time these activities originated, about nine years ago, they have included such games as tennis, crabball, volleyball and basketball. It has proved to be a great success and, with the increasing participation, will probably be more beneficial than ever in the future. 17 ki 'z With a clashing of bumpers, and a waving of hands, we have a basket, strike up the bands.
