Maw Schwartz vice president Lay ecletarx tleasuier Comoton nreident September, 1943 brought 149 piosptctnc SQYIIOIS to the halls of MHS Little did me realize how much the next thiee veirs would ter the first few weeks Having four sophomores captule impoitant ioles in the H1 Y G R play, Sixteen in Aug ust brought us lowly sophs to the limelight Two others represented us on the stage cicw. With this to boost our ego, we overcame our shyness enough to sign up for various Fi -'- skin Prom committees. Mary Alice Victor and Irma Lee Simonton were both eandidatts for Queen from our class and Johnny Busenbark and L. D. Compton held their own for King. Bobby Srack and Millie Domino reijncd. We remember the Prom now as a wonderful par- ty and winning the CKL Championship made it all the more glorious. We had started the year off right by tlect- ing Bill Daly as class president with Wally Whitney and Maxine Yenawine as his assist- ants. All this totaled up to a swell semester especially with Don Buster and Johnny Bus- enbark serving our class on the Student Coun- c . February 12 gave the girls a ch-mee to pay the boys back at the Golddiggers Ball spon- sored by the junior class. After recovering from this we were asked to serve 'it thc Jun- ior-Senior Banquet and Dance. April 22 was the sophomore party. This and the Blue M Dance ended a rcally swtll year. And so we bade farewell to the seniors of 44 and looked forward to our second yuir at MHS At last summer was here and ou1 thoughts xx eie of swimming, tennis, wo1k1nf.,, golf, and bascb ill, and it wasn t until August that wc hold in store for us Imagine oui imazcment when again we tiudged ba k to 'VIHS to find th it tht insti tutlon had h id its face lifted' The halls smell ed of fresh paint in the audltoiium we saw not only a new paint job, but a new maroon curtain with drapts to match. Fred Rogers Dick Morse, and Gloria Wil- son led us in our class activities as president vice-president and secretary-treasurer - sptetively. Norma Lou Myers and John Weigel represented us on the Council, with Don Buster and Johnny Busenbark as ex-of- fieio members. Among tl'e five cheerleaders chosen, Shirley King and Billie Rickard were from our class. When the Hi-Y-G. R. play, llane Crazy , rolled around Frtd Rogers, Guy Marlow, Roger Sommtrs, Ken Robinson, Norma Lou Myers, Corinne Holm, Lenore Holmquist, and If dwina Frick all succeeded in giving a fine performance showing their ability as future fl1 llllBl.lSllS. L. D. Campton, Paul Schwartz, Bill Ma- chin lcon Bolts Pill Eidson were on the CKL winning team with Johnny Busenbark and Bill Hosicr being, elected co-captains for the com- ing, seison. To climax the triumphs of the season our second Pigskin Prom'was high- lighted by h-wing Paul Schwartz Johnny Busenbark, I.. D.

The curtain rose at eight o clock on October 12 and members of the junior class showed their dramatic ability in the C. R.-Hi-Y play The lfightirrg Iittles. Iuriors ir the pl'y cast included Janet Ray Ann Th-rckrey Carolyn Adams Russell Frey 'rr l M'rrjor'e Bock.

One of the highlights of the year was the annual Youth Conference held Feb. 27-28. This vear the Hi-Y and G. R. were privileged to have Rev. Willifm Hage from Emporia as their speaker. During the two-day confer- ence he spoke to the membership of the Hi-Y and G. R., the student body and conducted pcrsonal conferences. In the fall a training conference was held i11 Clay Center for all cabinet members. Many different ideas of leadership were presented at this conference for th benefit of all pres- en . A sectional Hi-Y conference was held April 15 in Manhattan. Approximately 120 dele- gates attended the meeting from the central area of Kansas. They 11 ere divided into five discussion groups. The climax of the meeting' was a banquet held in the evening. D'. Slutz from Cleveland Ohio acted as leader of the conference. The Hi-Y and G. R. have combined on sev- eral occasions this year. During the Thanks- giving season each cooperated in gathering baskets of food fcr the needy families Other me Joint progiams mcluded the annual play, The Flghtm Littles exchange programs, and a Battle of the Sexes A Christmas tree provided by the H1 Y was again decorated by the H Y and G R cab 1nets after a potluck supper The annual H1 Y date hike Lo Sunset park was ca1r1ed out su cessfully. Perhaps two of the most memor- able events given in the fall and spring, were the Father-Son Potluck and Mother-Son Banquet which were enjoyed by parents and boys alike. During the football season the candy stand was again in charge of the Hi-Y. From the money taken in sizable contributions were made to the War Fund and Red Cross. The Hi-Y book exchange was again operated this year for the benefit of all. As in other years the Hi-Y had charge of the Easter Assembly. The leadership of the club was placed in the hands of president Guy Marlowg vice- president, Duane Blough' secretary Lorraine Reese treasurer Dick P'lI'kEl world brother- hood chairm ll John Greene' program chair- man Robert Thayer' p iblicity chairman Bob Parizo' social chairman Ralph Shellenoaum' devotional chairman, John Hall. Mr. Ralph Rogers the sponsor of Hi-Y deserves a vote of thanks. 'Thus the curtain is again closed on an- other successful year of Hi-Y The year is ended but the many memories of the good times had in Hi-Y linger on.

The General Business Course consists of the 'fol- lowing subjects: bookkeeping typewriting, business law and business principles. If stu- -dents so desire and their courses are so :rr- r-rngcd they may select an elective from the other subjects in the department. It is the aim of the business course to pre- pare students to go out into the various offices of Manhattan and the surrounding territory 'ind do a good job as a secretary stenograph- er or receptionist. The student should also have a good background for entering the busi- ness administrative course of any college if they select the General Business Course. Office machines play an important part in the training of the student in the business department. The following machines are given special emphasis: The typewriter mimeo- graph liquid duplicator gelatin duplicator Underwood-Sundstrand listing machine and Burroughs adding machine. Work is also given in the use of the mimeoscope and various stencil work A complete set of Remington Rand filing sets are used rn the department to teach the various types of filing In this way students viill have a general background for any filing system found rn the country The student must attain an office standard of 100 words per minute in shorthand and 60 words per minute rn tj pewrrtrng and a tr ans crrbrng rate of 45 words per minute to re- ceive a proficiency certificate. At the close of school the student must spend the last six weeks in a downtown office to gain actual ex- perience. Many of the students so placed re- main in their positions as permanent em- ployees of the business firnwf- and others gain the necessary initial experience to go into other offices -ind to work their may through college.

Coaches: Clark, Slayton, Elder CGACH ES Bill Slayton, head coach of football and track, came to our school from the North American Plant in Kansas City, Mo. There he had charge of a large athletic and recreation program for war workers. Before the war, he was head coach for eleven years at Chillicothe Business College in St. Joseph, Missouri. He had many championship teams in the past and had a fine coaching record. His football squads use the T formation as the basis of all their plays and it has been said that Mr. Slayton knows more about running the T then anyone in Kansas. With a good back- ground and plenty of coaching experience, he has also a likable personality, and out- standing qualities of character. Mr. Slayton has a great deal of drive and he worked hard to build up an A-1 team this season, however the odds were against him when it came to material for strategic positions and injuries to the first team members. This was Mr. Slay- ton's first year of coaching at MHS and he holds the respect and friendship of all. Keith Elder, also new at MHS, is head basketball coach and in charge of the B squad football team. Mr. Elder graduated from the Fort Hays State Teachers College and played one year of professional football before he sta1'ted coaching. Becoming htad athletic coach at Belleville, Kansas, he coached out- standing teams for three years bt fore -:dining to Manhattan. Here he has succeeded in making a basketball team that has made 'the best showing in years. including' the fact that they twice beat Junction City, Mr. Elder also has classes in hygiene and gym and he has proved to be an all around favorite of . dents and faculty. s,,,,,...-..,,,h -.Jvx Bill Clark, assistant coach, is the oldest member of the coaching staff. He teaches regular classes in commerce but spends most of his after school hours working with the beginners in athletics or taking pictures for the school. Mr. Clark graduated from Pitts- burg State Teachers College and was assist- ant coach to Charles Socolofsky, at Hiawatha, before he came to Manhattan four ytazrs ago. CADTAIN5 Two co-captains were selected for the 1945 season, but only one of them was able to play this year. Bill Hosier enlisted in the Naxy and was called just a few days after school started. Bill was a letterman from the season before and would have been a real asset to the team, had he been able to play. He was able to go out for practice a few times be- fore he hung up his jersey and paddinggs an.i replaced them with bell bottom trousers. With plenty of spirit and well liked by every boy, Bill was an outstanding player and had proved his ability in the 1944 season. His leadership and talent would have helped a lot this season. Bill took his boot training at San Diego, California, and is now stationed at Tsingtao, China. Johnny Busenbark, the other co-captain, held the position of guard and won his second letter in football this season. He started off the year with brilliant prospects but illness caused him to miss a good deal of playing time. He has been a member of the M Club for the past two years and was president in his senior year. Johnny served on the Stu- dent Council every year he was in senior high and was always a leader in school events. He played the trumpet in band and orchestra and was in the swing band in his junior year. Johnny's spirit and personality made him an ideal captain.
