Manhattan High School - Blue M Yearbook (Manhattan, KS)

Text from Pages 1 - 232 of the 1963 volume:

BLUE M Bright lights accent moder lines of Manhattan High School as it is photographed at night from the school library. Located at Sunset Road the school 1S the center of many activities at night, as well as during the school day. FCDREWCD RD A modern, changing world demands new and modern concepts of ideas. Keeping with this demand, the 1963 Blue M staff is proud to present to you, our new and modern idea-the 1963 Blue M. In bringing this yearbook to you, many time-worn outlines were discarded in favor of new designs, although certain traditional features were retained. These features were retained because tradition is as much a part of our school as newness. There are homecoming cele- brations with steamy hot chili, a roaring bonfire, and cheer- ing, excited crowds, the Blue Pepsters giving the war cry during the traditional playing ofulndian Boyi' at pep rallies and games, there is the annual Battle of the Sexes and crowning a Blue M queen, the weekly issue of the Mentor, and, the sacred tradition of not stepping on the Indian. Newness is also a large part of Manhattan High School. Kayettes, a new girls, organization, was formed this year, new political clubs were begun, plans were started for new additions to the school, enrollment reached new heights, our third foreign exchange student came to us as a stranger from Switzerland and left our school as an old friend, and there were always new library books, faces, and fads. DEDICATICDN This book is dedicated to you-the students, teachers, and citizens of our community. All of you have helped to promote and make possible our participation and play. You, the personalities of the school made the book possible through your efforts, patience, and Willingness for a success- ful 1963 school year. This book reflects your actions and your participation in school activities. By promoting these activities, you, the personalities ofthe community, have also made the book possible. Bold steps to a promising future are taken as students spend three years at Manhattan High School. Here they enjoy today, and plan and work toward the goals of tomorrow. l .

Visitors to the school comment on its interior which is deco- rated in the same blue with contrasting coral. However, to a student of Manhattan High School, the building becomes something more. The exterior would not be just a cold structure of brick, but a warm building somewhat eerily set against the dying rays of the evening sun. It would seem a romantic building in the spring with roses on the fence, and sometimes it would be a melancholy building viewed through a rain streaked window on a dreary day. The interior would be one filled with friends rushing to class, or visiting with other students. But, whatever it would appear to be, it is first a modern institute of learning, where the pride of accomplishments and the understanding of defeats are met each day. Here, also, the goals for the future are determined, prepared for, and perfected. Manhattan High's olien courts are a distinctive feature of the school. Its well-kept shrubbery and open areas provide a pleasant visiting place for many students during brief intervals between hours. 6 i i Setting sun at dusk presents an unforgettable spectacle of Manhattan High s modernlstic silhouette against the multlcol ored clouds of an early fall evening. The sun's rays battle with darkness as to which shall reign the night 'ii' The main hall provides a place where students go to relax and be with friends and classmates. School beauty is enhanced by the additional entrance to the auditorium and vocal rooms. The school library is a center of color and activity as students meet to work on class assignments, and do research. The latest magazines and research material are contained in the library. Eflicient catalogues help to locate books. 8 S tuajf Center Librory Provides Interest, Adds Color 'ro School X A pleasing, relaxing atmosphere is provided by the modern Manhattan High School library. This well equipped and well lighted room, in which to study and do research, adds color to the school with its interesting displays and rows of books. Dimensions play quite a large part in a library such as this. Many books can widen your knowledge by setting your goals higher, other books have depths which must be searched into more fully for comprehension, and there are still other books which will take you into heights of adventure. Bits of the past are recorded in factual history books and biographiesg the present, with its neces- sity for understanding current happenings, is found in the form of today's magazines and fold- ersg also, scientific and political implications of the future are found in the library. 9 I 1 I 1 I 1 I ,?,..- ,,,,, ,. ..-. .... ,--.l. ,1i1 10 A panorama begins our book with an over-all view of a school year from almost every conceivable direction, a story told in pictures. These pictures are not intend- ed to illustrate specific occurrences taking place during the nine school months. They are, instead, a symbolic image of the many happy, sad, and memorable events of the 1963 year at Manhattan High School. PANCDRAMA Vacation Ends Enrolling, Meeting Friends Fill First Doys of School The year began-students entered the building with expectation and uncertainty. Greetings of hello were exchanged among friends. Newcomers to the school seemed bewildered by the activities surrounding themg but as the year progressed, they too became a part of many of these activities which will be revealed through this panorama. mini Opening the door to the high school leads Manhattan High Confusion reigns as students jam the halls and students to another' busy school year of class activities. corridors on the way to their next class. Schedule problems are solved, and thoughts are probably somewhat alike as students gather in the office to talk over their enrollment questions with the office staff. 12 , .. 44 The more they practice-the better they are! Band members spend many hours on the practice field working up routines and songs, as well as performing at football games.

We took time to wash your windows, you take time to drive safely, is a slogan used by one of the six Kayette groups. Kayettes promote such projects to do their part in community service. 4 I,-.,F?..,..-!...... ,,,,,, ,W , Mentors, Mentors, everywhere-The pastime of students each Friday is to see what the school newspaper has to reveal in the way of news, features, and editorials. 1 Typing messages, scheduling, and interest in the students are only a small part of the secretaries' office duties.

Sentimental seniors shed a tear as they thought of the end of their high school days. Juniors and sophomores anticipated the thrill of be- coming upperclassmen. With varied reactions, each student recalls the memories of the 1963 year at MHS. These are recorded forever in his mind and this book. 'V' il .

The citizens of Manhattan voted yes, in the spring of 1962, for a large school bond issue and made pos- sible three necessary improvements. One of these was beginning plans for an addition to the senior high 26 school. Two other improvements included enlarging the junior high cafeteria and the Northview school building. Also, the Board decided upon the acquisi- tion of a twenty acre tract of land to be developed for future athletic programs. School board members are chosen in a city election, and each member serves four years. Three members are elected every two years.

Seniors Upperclossmen Begin Yeor With Much Determination Behind the seniors stood their three high school years. Ahead of them was an adult world, one in which each graduate could accept his individual re- sponsibility. With a youthful spirit and growing wis- dom, this fact was realized and anticipated. Their carefree years were not gone, but rather preserved in fond and lingering memories. Their uncertain future was something which each senior was ready and anx- ious to face. Thus, the seniors closed the high school doors and opened the ones to their future. Senior sponsor, Mr. LaMaster, and president Don Lamb discuss plan ideas for the class assembly and dinner. Robert Dobson, vice-president of the senior class, collects dues from graduating senior, Jon Gresham, while explaining the costs of various expenditures.

PARTICIPATICDN 79 Gain Experience Helpers Learn Tecbniquesg Library Serves As Class Besides being a center for research, study, and browsing, the library was also a classroom. Students enrolled in library as a class, received credit toward graduation and a letter grade. They also gained experience in library work through the training of Miss Martha Stucky, librarian. Library assistants had the responsibility of checking out books and magazines, keeping the files up to date, and taking inventory of all materials in the library at the end of the year. ix. fa, 1 locate books needed for 'assignments and enjoyment Library assistant, Lysle Oppenlander, helps students r Assistant Librarians Ron Roberts, Miss Lorna Perry, Mary Alice Wiarcl, Jane Par- rmgton Lana Ruthstrom Pat Enoch, Dana Bayer, Pamela Dockins, Gale Ray, Bob juniors, Seniors Printers, Journolists Work Together for Publications Open only to juniors and seniors, the journalism classes enabled students to gain experience and prac- tice in news, feature, and editorial writing. Tours of local newspaper offices and attendance at journalism conferences supplemented the students' knowledge in this field. After completion of junior journalism, stu- dents were able to test their own abilities, both in class and out of class, by working on either the Men- tor school newspaper, or the Blue M staff, who pub- lished the yearbook. A better appreciation and understanding of printing materials and working mechanisms was gained by stu- dents enrolled in printing classes. Vocational printing students printed the school newspaper each week, as well as many other materials for the entire Manhattan school system. This three hour laboratory class was especially designed for the non-college bound student.

Debators give a final touch to the tournament by writ- ing thank you notes to the judges for their work. Conveying Ideas Longuoges Develop Skill, Debofe ls Formol Contest Through the study of literature and the English language, students were helped to enjoy a lifetime of good reading and a greater command of the tools of communication. They developed a broader vocabu- lary, a knowledge of sentence structure, and a clear writing style. The study of literature presented facts and wisdom preserved in the words of many of the great creative writers. Debate, a formal contest of skill in reasoned argu- ment between two teams, took up a large portion of a student's time. Opposite sides of a specified question were backed by documentary evidence, logic, and quotes. After learning the essentials of debating, stu- dents represented Manhattan High School in several district and state tournaments. Courses in foreign languages introduced the student to the culture of the countries as well as helping him develop skill in the language. Intensive classwork, to- gether with practice periods in the language laborato- ry, helped to develop confidence in the spoken lan- guage. French, Spanish, and Latin were offered to the student who wished to learn about people. French, Latin, and Spanish classes enable students to learn about the customs, cultures, and people of each country. Although the languages differ, the students all learn correct pronunciation, conjugation, and vocabulary. 82 S ludbl Nations Sociol Science Field Helps Pupils Unclersfoncl World One aim of the social science courses was to give students an adequate background for understanding present day political, social, and economic life. These courses also helped students to develop an active sense of responsibility for effective democratic citizenship, and made them more aware of the problems in the world today. The broad area of human relationships was stressed, including man and his relation to the past and present, to society, environment, government, the world, and the general problems of mankind. Through a study of these social science courses, stu- dents were able to strive for perfection in understand- ing themselves, others, and the complex nature of the world in which they live. Learning to work with people is a challenge for Janice Hicks as she uses Robert Barth for a perception test. Kathryn Sweany prepares to take her monthly test over newspapers used in constitution class. i ., - 1- Interests in international relations and problems pro- vide many questions for discussions in world geography. 83 Having students demonstrate geometry problems and their solu- tions helps each class member to better understand the learned theorems. Jeannie Shackelford and Claire Danielson explore the world of electronics as they assemble testing devices. Marvin Butler works on algebra assignments which in- clude sign numbers, fractions, and equations of figures. 84 Science, Math Vorious Courses Avoilobleg Involves Precise Thought The study of science and mathematics made stu- dents aware of the numerous values of precise thought and reasoning. It also helped them in reading and understanding many of the current books and mag- azine articles Which dealt with the developments in this modern age of science. Science courses involved imagination, the search for evidence and understanding, and the joy of dis- covery. Studies in the various fields of science includ- ed biology, chemistry, and physics. Well-eqilipped lab- oratories opened the doors to many new opportunities and helped students gain a fuller understanding of these course offerings. Objectives of the mathematics courses were to devel- op an understanding of the nature of math and its role in modern life, and to teach the essential techniques of the field. Elements of mathematics which were taught, included algebra, advanced algebra, geometry, trigo- nometry, and refresher math. h Lab sessions in physics open the door to knowledge, as Mr. Ohm explains the various causes of reaction. College algebra class uses blackboards to work problems of ratios and proportions. Karen Longren's projects in chemistry take deep concentration for effective results. The world of biology takes students into discoveries of micro- scopic mysteries as objects invisible to the eye are studied. 85 f . 7 ,gQ5f5f W- ' -ji . iyjighg im mf ip., - zes'-W'3- ' JZ' Z-. mms The foods laboratory offers students many chances to learn cooking skills by using technical methods.

These courses helped stu- dents gain knowledge, insights, skills, and attitudes beneficial to present-day living. They also reached a better understanding of human nutrition, the selec- tion of fabrics, and the construction of clothing. Courses offered in the home economics field were Modern sewing machines help Marjorie Parks put learned fundamentals into actual practice. divided into beginning and advanced levels. The be- ginning level included classes in foods and clothing. The advanced classes also included these topics, but they were presented at a higher level. Another course was the cafeteria class, which helped the cooks in preparation and serving of food. Classes in home living were also included in home economics. Girls studied child care, home management, and family living . Offered to MHS girls are classes in which they learn how to prepare themselves for the future. 86 .1 Mrs. McConnell shows her sewing class quick and easy tips, which for her are now tricks of the trade . Class Prqects Industrial Arts Help Boys Goin Useful Experience Students wishing to obtain credit from an industrial aits class were able to choose between auto mechanics, woodwork, mechanical drawing, and vocational ag- riculture. In these courses, time was spent in practical training and class study. If auto mechanics was the chosen subject, boys learned about the intricate parts of engines, cylinders, batteries, and transmissions. Students were encour- aged to work on their own cars. Boys enrolled in woodworking classes constructed units of furniture. Some of their projects were tables, chairs, bookcases, and bedroom suites. if? - o i - M fx Q. .M W if 4 9 54 it . 5 ?

Mechanical drawing students, Cris Bafkinan and jim Bath, gain much experience in drawing plans. XX Students in art class develop skill and express feelings Fine Arts Students Express Feelings In Music, Drczmci, Arts Fine arts courses provided understanding of oneself and others, and released ideas and emotions. This area also supplied opportunities for the creation of original works and appreciation of other artists and their works. A practical background and technical skill in all fields of art was gained by the students enrolled in this area. Like life, art sought to organize inharmonious ele- ments into a unified whole and offered an outlet for creative impulses. Instruction in this field included ceramics, design and composition, commercial art, sculpturing, metal crafts, and enameling. Speech courses were designed to help students de- velop flexibility of voice and gain poise and self-con- fidence. Courses in drama gave students a knowledge and background of the theater and experience in play production, directing, and acting. Students interested in the vocal and instrumental forms of art provided a musical atmosphere to the school through concerts, bands, and operettas. by drawing portraits of Marcia Koch.

It was necessary to know the effective use of English and to have a knowledge in math and science. In the business courses, students prepared themselves to be more self-sufficient and ef- fective in their homes, in the community, and in a vocational life. Various courses were offered to the student interest- ed in this field. One course, office machines, was new this year and taught students to use many of the com- plicated business machines efficiently. Students in typing and shorthand classes gained skills helpful in other classes as well as business careers. Typing students could use their skill in typing letters, themes, assignments, and other papers. Skill in shorthand helped students to take class notes and to interview more effectively. Other courses in business, which were offered to interested students, included business law, business principles, bookkeeping, and office practice. v KE A S, -laws-Psi Much of the shorthand hour is spent taking tlictations and working toward improvement on speed tests. Modern office machines in business class helps Becky Toothaker learn eflicient ways to success. Learning to type proves valuable because this can be used for many classes and assignments.

Girls' gym is essential in developing an erect and vig- orous body, which reflects one's interest and zest for life. Many gymnastic tricks are practiced and mastered as the wall rings are used by the girls in the gym class. Phys Ed Gym Classes, lntrcamurols Develop Physical Fitness Students enrolled in the physical education classes participated in wholesome recreation, gained physical efficiency, and learned the many rules of good sports- manship. Both boys' and girls' gym classes were of- fered a wide and assorted variety of activities which included individual and team sports. Intramural programs for both boys and girls em- phasized fun and good fellowship. During eight weeks of the school year, senior, junior, and sophomore boys organized teams with original names, and participated in basketball intramurals. Girls' intramurals were an organized interest club as well as an after school group. Officers for the group were Sally Baril, president, Sherry Brandt, secretary, and Ann Sanders, treasurer. As a service project, the girls sold basketball booster buttons. They partic- ipated in a volleyball and bowling tournament, as well as a fall picnic and a spring picnic. A volleyball game with the faculty, proceeds going to American Field Service, was another one of their activities. . ,kt M 4 'H f After hours of practice, all boys in gym classes were able to master a hand stand. 5- Jumping high to get rebounds shows the physical power that can be gained by the boys taking part in intramural basketball games.

It was composed of twelve elected members, four from each class. Keith Fischer was chosen president by the students. Goals of Student Council were to encourage initi- ative, leadership, and originality in the student body and to serve as an outstanding example of citizenship and scholarship. They worked toward developing better co-operation and understanding between the teachers, administrators, and students. Activities which were sponsored by the Council helped to widen the horizons and interests of the student body. Other activities served not only the school and students, but the community as well. Some of the activities of Student Council were sponsoring the football and basketball proms, the new students' party, and homecoming ceremonies, cleaning the trophy case, and Operating the popcorn machine at home basketball games. In addition, the Kansas Student Council Conference was held at MHS in Sep- tember.

AFS Program Honsruedi Kloy, Swifzerlond Is Third Exchonge Sfudent As an educational organization, the American Field Service brought teenage students from other lands to America for study. Students qualifying for AFS had to be able to exchange knowledge of their own coun- try and the one which they visited. This program, in its third year of operation, gave MHS pupils an opportunity to study the three differ- ent cultures of the exchange students. Responsibilities of the local chapter were to obtain families to take the foreign student without pay, and to select Manhattan students for scholarships under the Americans Abroad program. Fred Lamb was the first student from MHS to participate in this program. He lived with his Eng- lish parents and their three children near Newcastle. While in England he visited many educational and historical places. From near Bern, Switzerland, Hansruedi Klay was the third foreign exchange student to attend MHS. His older sister attends college in Switzerlandg his two brothers are in the primary grades. The Ray Lippenbergers, his American family, also have a daughter in college, and a son who is a sophomore in high school. The room of chemical formulas and experiments is where Fred Lamb and Hansruedi Klay can often be found. Modern laboratory equipment and individual effort combine to help the boys master their scientific problems. ATI-I IIIHI' H ,. ob: 094030 .noosbo 'fw' -.1....1. l ' W. at P lf .-Q, .

New Organization Club Membership Bounds, Second Lorgesf In Sfofe Through the slogan of laugh, love, and lift , mem- bers of the Kayette organization prepared today for tomorrow . In its first year at MHS, this club was the second largest in the state of Kansas. This girl's service group worked to promote bro- therhood, peace, and togetherness in the school, com- munity, and world. It also stressed six special areas, represented by colors. These were personality-red, appreciation-yellow, recreation-green, service-blue, religion-white, and leadership-purple. Each year every Kayette club worked toward earn- ing 1,000 points. These points were gained by having '75 per cent of the members know the pledge, slogan, motto, and declaration of privileges, and by sponsor- ing various activities which were each worth a cer- tain number of points. This year, the MHS club went far beyond their goal of earning 1,000 points. Kayettes was divided into six teams, each desig- nated by a color. Permanent team captains were chosen for these teams, but rotating group leaders headed different groups each six weeks. Elected officers were Claire Danielson, president, Mary Mitchell, vice-president, Mary Alice Wiard, secretary, and jane Parrington, treasurer. They, and ten appointive officers composed the board.

These practice sessions also gave band members a broad background in all kinds of music. The majority of the band's appearances were at home football games. However, they also performed in the K-State Homecoming and Band Day parades. The group performed at the Kansas State Teachers' meeting in Topeka in late October. In March they held a band clinic, and in May, presented their talents to the public in a concert. Band was divided into two grottps, the symphonic band and the concert band. Symphonic band was ar- ranged for the group of more advanced students. Ofhcers who were elected hy band members were Bob Clegg, president: Bill Bevan: vice-president, and Mike McCormick, secretary.

V6Z7'Z.6IQ7 qv M usic Orchestra Porticipotors Goin Knowledge Although many music students were enrolled in both band and orchestra, the orchestral section was not connected with the band. The one exception was at the district festival, when the combined band and orchestra were allowed to send only ten ensembles for entrance in competition. Orchestra took care of complete arrangements for the annual variety show in the spring. They attended a CKL string clinic once during the year, and also held a concert of their own. Another important func- tion of the orchestra in the school was providing the instrumental background for 'AThe Wizard of Oz , this yearls school operetta. Students enrolled in the 58 piece orchestra gained an interest and appreciation toward the many types of music which they played. 115 Directors Mr. Norvell and Mr. Frey conduct the small instrumental groups and the stage bands. Ensembles, Bands Conductors Norvell, Frey Direct lnslrumentcalists Directing the instrumental music department at the high school was the responsibility of Mr. Lawrence Norvell and Mr. David Frey. Mr. Norvell was in charge of the symphonic band, the orchestra, and most of the ensembles. The concert band and two stage bands were under the direction of Mr. Frey. Each of the ensembles organized by Mr. Norvell and Mr. Frey was an important part of the musical pro- gram. These enabled the participants to develop techniques on their instruments and learn the fine points of group playing. Since there was more re- sponsibility on the part of the individual in these small groups, advanced students were given an oppor- tunity to develop into superior musicians. These ensembles performed special numbers for service groups, civic organizations, PTA, and school programs. They also attended contests, competing with other groups throughout the state. During the year, MHS has taken great pride in the ratings received by students participating in these contests. Students for these groups were chosen from the band and orchestra according to their abilities. The ensembles practiced after school hours, and usually played music of the highest quality. E -E x S.

Breaks Record Neorly 45,000 People See Colorful Wizard of Oz This year's operetta, The Wizard of Oz , exceeded all former operettas for attendance records, as well as number of performances. It was presented six times from November 14 through 17 in the high school au- ditorium to nearly 45,000 Involving, directly or indirectly, approximately 300 people, the production was under the direction of Mr. Larry Boye, vocal music instructor.

Miriam Lansdowne, president of Robed Choir, was the student director. A twister hit the home of Dorothy, and she was car- ried over the rainbow to picturesque Munchkinland. Although she liked it there, she was anxious to return home. Dorothy was told to go to Emerald City in search of the wonderful Wizard of Oz, who could help her in getting to Kansas. On the way, she met Scare- crow, Tin Man, and Cowardly Lion, who also had favors to ask of the great Oz. They encountered many exciting events together. Through the efforts of those involved, the characters in a child's book came alive on the stage. Scenes are colorful, enchanting, exciting, as approximately three hundred students combine their skills in the pro- duction of Wizard of Oz .

BW Friend Thespions Sponsor Musicolp Riviero Provides Setting Riviera flappers and beaus made their debut in the annual all-school play, The Boy Friend. This musical production was sponsored by Thespians and presented in the auditorium February 14 and 16. British musical comedies of the twenties were full of satire. The Boy Friend had as its setting a girls' fin- ishing school on the French Riviera. Each character in the musical was an exaggeration of the types found during the 1920's, and they added to the production's charm and comedy of events. Dialogue and plot of the play were written to the ridiculous and followed the theme of boy friends and falling in love. The music was like the old type of show ballad or gay dance-tune music of the roaring twenties. Various comical and serious songs and dance routines were performed to the music of this era. Mr. Maurice Roberts directed this light musical, and Betty Seltzer was student director. I could be happy with you is the familiar phrase that Tony and Polly exchange at their first glance.

These three greedy stepchildren connnitted Mrs. Savage to a sanatoriuin. XVhile there, she met Eve in- teresting and unusual people who added a great deal of charin and humor to the play. They were well con- trasted with the Savage children, and illustrated that the people in the outside world were not actually as well off as some of the people who spend their lives in the sanatoritnn.

Cross country is an inter-school sport which tests the endurance and speed of the participants. The course crossed by the runners is a length of two miles and includes various obstacles. Practice was held on the field behind the school. Keeping score for cross country is done quite dif- ferently than for the other sports. Points are given in the order that the runners finish, so that the first per- son crossing the finish line would receive one point, the second, two points, etc. Thus, the team with the lowest score becomes winner. Top runner of the season was Gary Lee who posted at the state meet a top time of l0:l1.5. Gary finished fourteenth at this meet and now holds the school rec- ord for his time. Coach Hower gives brief pointers and encouragcnient to the boys before practices and important meets. MHS HARRIERS-Top Row: Don Lamb, Mr. Hower, jay D. Berends, Robert Clack, Gary Lee, Fred Lznnb.

The squad finished the season with a tie, as they recorded three wins and three losses. B-Team games were played against Chap- man and all Central Kansas League teams with the exception of McPherson. Games were usually played on Monday afternoon. Boys playing on the B-Team were given a chance for competition, and developed confidence in block- ing, passing, tackling, and ball handling. The B-Team, also called the reserve squad, was composed of the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth strings of the varsity. No senior was allowed to play with the B-Team, although sophomores and juniors were allowed to participate in any of the A-Team games. Playing as opponents, both strings gained necessary practice for upcoming games, and improved both their skill and their assurance in playing. B-Team coaches, Mr. Scott Hagen and Mr. Roy Dewitz, tried to give each boy a chance to play, which also helped to give them more experience. Outstanding players included Mike Ashton, Tom Ball, Roger Barr, Steve Beck, George Hoerner, -lack Jarrett, Alan Langvardt, and George Shupe.

First mat action for the grapplers came at the Rus- sel Tourney where Manhattan netted third place. Ernie Rendleman and Steve Taylor captured first place finishes. Rendleman won in the 180-pound class, and Taylor claimed the heavyweight title. Starting off actual dual matches well, with a 26-17 victory over junction City, the Indians battled to a 22-22 deadlock with the Topeka High wrestlers. After a disheartening defeat by the Salina squad, Manhattan went on to overwhelm St. john's Academy by a victory margin of 41-10. From this triumph, however, the rest of the season became a series of setbacks for the Indian wrestlers. A powerful team from North Kansas City challenged the Indians, and defeated them 36-10. Manhattan's next encounters were hard-fought bat- tles as they lost to both Highland Park and Clay Cen- ter by the slim margin of two points. As a final bout, the Indians were dumped by Emporia, 29-14. After completing dual matches, Manhattan entered tournament action. Helping them nab third in the CKL were Carl Nord and Steve Taylor who both took first place. Although Manhattan placed in the dis- trict tournament, no Indian was able to win first. Capturing top honors at the regional tournament was Mike Simpson. This enabled him to enter state competition where he nailed a fourth position.

B- Team Anticipate Vcarsity Squcadp Sets 8-8 Game Record Playing a sixteen game schedule, the Manhattan High School B-Team compiled a tie record of 8 wins and 8 losses. Opponents of the squad were the same as for the varsity. However, the B-Team did not parti- cipate in any tournament action during the year. Although the team began the season poorly by los- ing their first six encounters, they continued through their league and non-league games, winning eight of them by large margins, and dropping only two. Members of the B-Team, coached by Mr. Richard Towers, were sophomores and juniors. Boys from this squad could work toward the goal of achieving varsity team membership by displaying improvement in their playing ability. , Valuable experience in the skill of ball handling and basketball techniques was gained by the partici- pants, they acquired feelings of self-confidence by playing under actual game conditions. Surrounded by Abilene Cowboys, David Fairbanks U55 shoots for a basket as he tries to widen the team's margin. presented a preview of MHS's future teams.

Promotion by the Manhattan business- men was a decisive factor in presenting this Blue M. By purchasing ads, merchants con- tributed to the enlargement of the book. In turn, the Blue M with its ad section helped to forward interest in their establishments. Through this co-operative effort, work was completed to promote progress and harm- ony between our school and community. PROMOTICDN 169 si? ,Q- T J -Q. Chamber of Commerce members meet to suggest plans for making our city a better place to live and make a living. Chomber of Commerce The words Chamber of Commerce mean people and ideas. But, it is not only to the existing world that this organization is a vital, influencing symbol. As a completely voluntary institution in the United States, the symbol of Chamber of Commerce is eight years older than the Declaration of Independence. The first branch of Chamber of Commerce was or- ganized in the state of New York in the year 1768. Five years later, the first local Chamber was started in Charleston, South Carolina. The Manhattan Chamber of Commerce is composed of approximately 800 business and professional lead- ers, voluntarily working together to build a better community for Manhattan residents. This membership elects a board of directors com- posed of 22 members who meet twice each month to put thoughts and plans into action. The board mem- bers, in turn, elect officers and appoint committees Qapproximately 30j. These committees make recom- mendations and see that plans are carried out.

Perhaps this year, stu- dents from MHS have become better acquainted with Blaker employees than previously. Not only were class pictures for the Blue M taken by a Blaker pho- tographer, but many other pictures making up each section of the book were also photographed by the Blaker studio. Mr. Lawrence Blaker, the studio's owner, manager, and main photographer, spent many hours working for this year's Blue M staff. Another employee of Blakers, Mr. David von Riesen, was very patient in responding to the staff's changing demands. All students beginning the school year as seniors were asked to make appointments before the first of September. In this way, much time and attention could be devoted to their graduation pictures, giving the best possible results. Mrs. von Riesen discusses prices and advantages of dif- ferent frames, while showing Linda Beaty various pictures from the color room at Blaker Studio Royal.

It seemed we tackled the impossible with only five gals'! producing a book, but I think youill agree, it was worth every minute of our time. Linda, you wrestled a trying match with the copy and the jargon thirsty sports pages. Congratulations, Chalise, for breaking the booster sales record! You really committed yourself, Kay, when you consented to snapping pictures and writing those in- numerable cutlines. On how many occasions Lana did we hear you moan, 'WVhy donlt these pictures fit the layouts! I'll bet we broke more pica rulers than the next two yearbook staffs could ever use. It was a trying but wonderful experience-the hours we spent compiling the l963 Blue M. To know that we've finished brings a reminiscent tear for me, as I'm sure it does for you. We have worked in close association, and I sincerely appreciate each of you and your efforts. We all join in to thank our deserving sponsors, Mrs. Sloan and Mrs. NVebb.

Without the fine services of the employees of Myer's 200 Yearbook Company, who did our printing, this book could never have been published. We'd like to express our gratitude to Mr. C.

Angel Street Class Presents Mystery, Roles Are Doublecost Members of the senior class presented their annual play in the auditorium on April 19 and 20. This year's play, Angel Street , was written by Patrick Hamilton. Most of the characters in this drama were doublecast, allowing more seniors to perform. The play told the story of Jack and Bella Manning- ham who lived on Angel Street in London, England. Jack had murdered a woman in order to obtain some precious jewels. He and his wife, who was unaware of his past, lived in this woman's home while jack continued his well-planned search for the stones. To prevent Bella from interfering with this search, jack tortured his wife and almost drove her insane. With the help of Rough, an excellent detective, Mrs. Manningham overcame her husbandfs scheme to drive her mad and finally aided in his capture. Mr. Maurice Roberts directed the play and was assisted by john Armstrong, student director.
