Manlius Places Two, A1UTourney Little 8 Squad BY ROGER McROBERTS Manlius superintendent Hake, vice president of the Little Eight :onference. presented trophies to the winners immediately fol-owing the championship game. Mr. Hake made the presentations in the absence of Presi- : dent Turner, Wyanet superin- | tendent. His last official duty of the evening was a proud one as he presented the championship trophy to his own coach, George Taylor and Captain Dahl. Earlier in the evening, tourney officials had asked your :orrespondent to make an all-star selection and to announce t immediately before the trophy presentations, which was done. Our Little Eight all-star team includes: Peach, Walnut; and Dahl, Manlius, forwards; Slock, Sheffield, center; Simms, Buda; j and Hewitt, Manlius, guards. The first four are seniors, and the last, a sophomore. The captaincy of the squad goes to Hewitt, the classiest ball-han- j dler and floor man in the con-‘erence, and also high scorer of the meet. Before the announcement of 1 the mythical team, Mr. Hake ixpressed the gratitude of the conference for Little Eight sports coverage in the past by 1 The Star-Cpurier.

We, as citizens of tomorrow, pledge ourselves to love, cherish, defend, and maintain the republic of the United States of America. Fully cognizant of the blessings conferred upon us as a noble heritage, our determination is to spare no effort to preserve them and to hand them down to posterity. Our prayer, our hope, and our conviction . . . America first, last, and always. fiDminisTRflTion THE BOARD The board members of Manlius Township High school for the year of 1941-42 are: Lloyd Van Ormer (president), Stacy Hewitt (secretary), Charles Schmidt, Paul McMahon, and Claude Barber. The term of service of each man mentioned above is as follows: Lloyd Van Ormer, three years; Stacy Hewitt, sixteen years; Charles Schmidt, eleven years; Paul McMahon, two years, and Claude Barber, four years. Of the many duties that the board performs, few are known and appreciated by the public. However, the responsibility, and duties that the board members have and perform each year are something that should be taken into consideration when speaking of the controlling agents of the school. The board members are not always in the public eye. Most often their decisions are made in private and the general public is unaware of their tasks. Public criticism too often ferrets them out for legislation which some question. Tribute should be paid, however, to these men who serve without pay and who must often sacrifice their time for the cause of the school. Theirs is frequently a thankless but always an essential contribution to the cause of public education. ☆ THE BUILDING The Manlius Township High school building is divided into two main structures. The east part was built in 1920 and contains all of the class rooms and the assembly. It formerly contained a gym. However, it was small and in 1931 the west wing was constructed and joined to the main building. It contains one of the finest gyms in the county. The west wing resembles the east part of the building. The front view of the campus with its setting of varied shrubbery and trees is very beautiful to the eye. Visitors frequently comment about the natural beauty of the campus saying that it is one of the most attractive of any small school in the state of Illinois. The evergreens in winter when laden with snow, rival in beauty the summer setting when the lawn is covered with a green carpet of grass. Truly, students and alumni have cause to feel proud of the school which is probably the strongest single influence of their lives next to the home. A final reason for satisfaction, is that the final indebtedness on the building is to be paid off this year. The future of M. T. H. S. looks promising, indeed. tacy2 f pzzs2i!i cSee'y: 2,2o d Ua iOr mer President C2av.de Bar ber THE RECEPTION ROOM Manlius High School has annually sponsored a carnival. This event not only adds an air of festivity and pleasure to the school year but it also provides funds which have been used to provide certain things about the school which might not be otherwise supplied through the usual channels. In past years, such equipment as the following has been secured through the use of the Carnival funds; an automatic bell ringing clock which rings all of the bells during the day with unerring punctuality; a ping pong table which sees constant use during all intermissions of the school day; an adding machine for office and class use and a Philco Radio-Phonograph-Recorder which makes possible not only excellent radio reception and the reproduction of records but also the making of records. Both the Speech and Music departments make extensive use of the device. Other recreational materials have also been provided during the years. This year, it was decided to use the current available funds in furnishing a room to serve as a Reception Room for the school. Heretofore, visitors had no alternative when interviewing .students other than to talk to them in a deserted classroom or in the outer office. Now the room which is pictured on the preceding page is available. It also serves as a Board of Education room where school policies may be discussed in an environment of physical comfort. ☆ THE LIBRARY Our school library is gradually but surely being improved. Criticisms of state school inspectors have long included the inadequacy of our library. During recent years, these same investigators have been unanimous in acknowledging the fact that it is being satisfactorily built up and that it shows the result of careful planning. This year, added reading room facilities were created. Mr. Johnson, custodian of the building, skilfully prepared several tables which are adapted, scientifically, to reading. A new enclosure wfas also built around the library area. This enclosure is necessary since the library is not housed in a separate room. This year, only teacher librarians are used. A total of about 25 magazines is kept on the reading shelves in addition to about an equal number in the agriculture department. A daily newspaper is also provided for the students. Several classes make extensive use of current events as parts of their assignments. This is extremely beneficial especially in view of these critical times when every citizen should be conscious of the developments in his country and in the world at large. STUDENT COUNCIL President (1st semester) .............................Kenneth Stier President (2nd. semester) .........................Caroline Kares Secretary and Treasurer .........................Jenna Lee Raabe Advisers ....................................Mr. Hake, Miss Giese Other Members: Freshmen ........................Doris Karriker, Clayton Hewitt Sophomore.........................Marilyn Roush, Burton Doty junior .............................................Robert Butler The Student Council is an organization consisting of two representatives from each class and the two faculty advisers. Although the local Student Council is not affiliated with the state it carries on many activities. It plans and supervises the Eighth Grade Visitation Day, parties, annual carnival. Homecoming, etc. As this council is elected by each of the respective classes it can insure that each activity is properly organized, conducted and financed by this elected body. ☆ ASSEMBLY The assembly is the only room in the building where the entire student body meets at one time. On the opposite page you see the assembly as it appears in the morning during quiet period. Students are assigned desks in alphabetical order each semester, where they keep their books and prepare their lessons. Each study period is supervised by a faculty member. Every Monday morning, during the assembly period, Mr. Hake shows an educational motion picture. Travel, nature, safety, machine age development, courtesy, history and other subjects are portrayed through the medium of the motion picture. The assembly is well equipped, well lighted, and well managed. There are 106 desks in the assembly. This year a total of 106 students enrolled including post graduates. There are 19 Seniors, 23 Juniors, 36 Sophomores, 25 Freshmen, and three Post Graduates. The High School and National Defense ☆ 'We arc now in this war. We arc all in it all the way. Every single man, woman, and child is a partner in the most tremendous undertaking of our American history. We must share together the bad news and the good news, the defeats and the victories—the changing fortunes of war . . . Address to the Nation—President Roosevelt, Dec. 9, 1941. ☆ The schools hold an important section on the battle line of war. They must use every device known to develop mental and spiritual preparedness. A steady flow of educated citizens, for the task ahead, must be maintained. The school program must be related to the war situation, otherwise young people may be tempted to leave school prematurely because of its apparent remoteness from the world struggle. Just how are the high school and the high school student related to this situation? First of all, in the curricular program of the school, there are marked adjustments. The studying and discussing of war and peace aims of past wars and the present war in history classes, enable the future citizens to better understand and avoid the pitfalls of yesterday and today, and to help create a world situation in which some of our present evils are eliminated. In agriculture classes the high school boys study the world situation as it affects agriculture, and in turn familiarize adults with the emergency program, assisting them in improving their farming practices. Girls in home economics classes are taught, as the homemakers of tomorrow, how to wisely buy and prepare and conserve foods, as well as household commodities. Vitally necessary to the school and the student are the extra-curricular activities. These activities are co-operating whole-heartedly in the defense program. For example, students at M. T. H. S. were not compelled in any way to buy defense bonds or stamps, yet every student is sacrificing a few of his candy bars or movie tickets and buying regularly; not with money received from his parents for that purpose, but with money saved through some personal sacrifice. Within ten days after an appeal was made, every student in our school either had started a defense stamp album or had purchased a bond. We are justly proud of the letter from the White House, congratulating us on our “fine interest in the defense program. Athletics has an important place in the program. Sports build one up physically and morally, essential factors in this crisis. The many clubs of our high schools, may, and are .contributing their share. The F. F. A. encourages Victory Gardens, and collects scrap metals, the G. A. A. gives lessons in first aid—and each wages its own war on waste, conserving old paper and tin cans. Yes, the high school youth is co-operating! The Youth of Today are the Citizens of Tomorrow ! HANNAH GIESE Miss Giese was graduated from Edwardsville High School in Edwardsville, Illinois. After graduation from high school, she attended Washington University at St. Louis where she received her B. A. degree. Miss Giese teaches English and Latin and is ECHO staff adviser.

It’s now the evening of September 23, and we've just returned from the most exciting party! The student body entertained us at an Initiation Party.—Come to think about it, they received quite a bit of entertainment through us, too! . . . We’ve emerged from our cocoons, discovering that Mr. Erwin Hake is our principal, associate teachers being Miss Frances Nelson, Miss Iona Mensendick, Miss Evelyn Stalter, Mr. Paul Curtis, Mr. George Taylor and Mrs. Hake . . . We are disappointed when four of our class, Marcella Hall, Laura Heuer, Darlene Fordham, and Roger Jensen discontinue their studies, and Donald Nelson transfers to another school. SOPHOMORE YEAR—1939-1940 Our three months of carefree vacation have returned us to our studies much more sure of ourselves than we were at this time last year. Dear Diary! Our faculty has undergone some-changes, Miss Jane Larrick has replaced Miss Mensendick and Mr. Marvin Hewitt has taken the place of Mr. Curtis. Mr. Arthur Sweet, music teacher, has been added to our teaching staff. During the year another of our group, Nels Anderson, drops from our midst . . . December 20—The Civics Class takes a trip to the State Penitentiary at Joliet, witnesses a trial, and combines a little Christmas shopping with their trip. JUNIOR YEAR—1940-1941 Well, what do you know. Dear Diary! Here we are in the upper half of high school and feeling rather important ... In our teaching staff, Mr. Everett Hendrix succeeds Mr. Hewitt, and Miss Lillian Nelson replaces Miss Larrick. We’re rather mixed up because now we have two teachers called Miss Nelson, but we solve the problem by calling our new teacher Miss Lillian . . . We gain a new member, Blanche Whipple, and lose June Miller' . . . Our importance increases as Ole Olson, the ring man, delivers our class rings on October 1. . . . March 21—Our Junior Play, Apron-String Revolt”—We ll always remember that anxious moment, a few days before the play, when Marzetta became ill, and a substitute was secured to portray her role! . . . May 17-—More memories. The Biology Class Trip to Brookfield Zoo. There were SO many Pulaski Streets, and remember the pictures we took, and that ride on the L?” . . . May 23—We are hosts to the seniors at the annual Junior-Senior Banquet, held this year at Hotel Parkside in Kewanee. Using the Hawaiian theme, the furnishings were complete with leis, palm trees, and pineapples. Nice Girl,” featuring Deanna Durbin, was the movie wc attended after the banquet. SENIOR YEAR—1941-1942 DEAR DIARY: Busy, Busy, Busy! Already w-e’ve begun to bustle about, preparing the stage for our final year at M. T. H. S. . . . Two of our personable class members, Robert Dabler and Clifford Conley, transfer to other schools. Due to the route of our new school bus, however, Norma Johnson, Clair Vetter, and that elusive one from our freshman days, Donald Nelson, enroll in the senior class . . . Miss Hannah Giese, Miss Evelyn Wendling, and Miss Lucille Sutter replace Miss Nelson, Miss Stalter, and Miss Lillian. . . . Viola Harbath joins our class . . . We publish the Echo,” the semi-monthly school paper, and the MIRROR the senior year book . . . October 16— Look at the birdie! —We re having our senior pictures taken . . . April 10—We visit Bradley College . . . We leave a gift to the school with which to remember us—a fire alarm system. It can be used as an air raid siren . . . April 23—It’s the day of our Senior Play, Keep Off the Grass” . . . On April 25 we were entertained by the Junior-class at the Junior-Senior Banquet at the Lincoln Tavern in Sterling. A patriotic theme was used . . . May 3—Baccalaureate . . . May 5—Commencement. Gee, we'll hate to leave you, old school! We hope you’ll miss us, just a little! P. S. May 22—The seniors take their Senior Trip. Oh Boy! A cruise on Lake Michigan, on a big steamship! We had the best time, but underneath there was a feeling of sadness, because we knew that when it was all over; the Senior class of 1942 would never again be all together again! . . . 1942 SENIOR CLASS WILL ☆ We, the Class of 1942, in twenty-seven individual and distinct parts, being about to pass out of this sphere of education, in full possession of a crammed mind, well-trained memory, and almost super-human understanding, do make and publish this, our last will and testament, hereby revoking and making void all former wills or promises by us at any time heretofore made, or mayhap, carelessly spoken, one to the other, as the thoughtless wish of an idle hour.

Would you like to peer into the inner sanctum of a high school? Then come along with us as we spend a typical school day at M. T. H. S., with two typical students, Susy Hinkle and Johnny Jones. The logical place to begin is the beginning, and so we take you to the comfortable farm home of Johnny, situated about five miles from Manlius. It is 8:00 o'clock and Johnny has long since finished his breakfast and completed the morning chores. Ah! Here comes the bright orange school bus which will take him to his daily studies. John is greeted with friendly shouts as he boards the bus, and it is soon on its away again. In the meantime, let us not forget Susy Hinkle. She lives in the town of Manlius, henceforth she may, or may not be, referred to as a City Gal.” She, too, by 8:15, has finished her morning duties, dashed into her reversible and babushka, and hurried to the corner to meet her chums. Walking their daily five blocks leisurely, they saunter up the winding concrete walk of M. T. H. S. just as the school bus arrives. As the group enter the building, the air is filled with Hi, Susy!” Hi, Johnny!” Morning, Bill! What’s cookin’, Mary? and other varied remarks. Just about the time last night's activities have been thoroughly gone over, the quiet bell rings and everyone rushes to his seat. What’s this? The shades are being lowered by Mr. Johnson, our janitor. Movies today! Mr. Hake starts the movie projector, and for a period Susy and Johnny are traveling in foreign lands, seeing the dramatization of famous literature, prevention of diseases through scientific research, or the enactment of the making of our country. Then the last scenes fade away, and they hear the voice of Mr. Hake saying, We'll divide the time among the periods.” Off Susy and Johnny go to their morning classes. You see, Susy wants to become a nurse, and so her day will be spent studying the courses which will best prepare her for her chosen occupation. This year she is studying Latin, Biology, English, and Algebra. And what about Johnny? Johnny wants to own and manage a farm when he is graduated; therefore he will spend his day studying courses which pertain to his field. Agriculture, Bookkeeping, Physical Geography, and Geometry are the courses he is taking this year. The clock ticks steadily on—-and then it is 12:00, and Susy and Johnny hear the sharp blast of the noon whistle blending with the last morning bell, signifying that the last morning classes are over. Susy dashes down to her locker and retrieves her coat, where she is met by Bill. Want a ride home, Susy?” And so Susy and Bill climb into his slightly dilapidated car, and the two rattle home to dinner. Meanwhile, Johnny has gotten his dinner pail from his locker and returned to the assembly, where all the (Concluded on page following the music picture) ncn vmes THE MIRROR Editor Business Manager Feature Writers .... Marilyn Carlson, Kenneth Stier ..-__Max Dahl Caroline Kares __Leota Jensen Art Editor • Cheryle D blei Sports _____________________La Verne House Jokes Marzetta Raabe and Donald Nelson Adviser ................Mr. Erwin E. Hake The Mirror is an annual book published by the seniors. To finance the book each senior co-operates in the selling of advertisements. We, as seniors, are just a little proud to say that we have sold more advertisements this year than has any other class in recent years. Incidentally, we have received more orders for annuals than could be filled. As seniors we sincerely wish to thank Mr. Blankenberg, the advertisers, those who bought annuals, and our adviser, Mr. Hake. We appreciate the co-operation of everyone who helped make this Mirror of 1942 a success. It is our hope that in years to come when the Mirror of ’42 is studied that it will bring back pleasant memories of days spent together in Manlius Township High School. ☆ ECHO This year the seniors published the Echo, a semi-monthly newspaper, using the duplicating machine, a gift from the class of 1941. The staff was composed of the entire senior class in addition to three under-classmen, Doris Karriker, Calvin Schuneman and Hazel Schuneman, who wrote class news. In September, 1941 the seniors sold a total of 135 subscriptions to students, townspeople, and alumni. The editor and staff with genuine sincerity hope that the Echo has carried out its purpose—that of keeping the parents and alumni in closer contact with M. T. H. S. and also for finding enjoyment and reading pleasure. Editor-in-Chief ....-......Marilyn Carlson Assistant Editor..................... Leota Jensen Business Manager ...........

Richard Early is a vice president in one of the Chicago suburban banks while Emily, his wife devotes practically all her free hours to rearing their four children. Hope, the oldest, is a social worker who has been deprived of the opportunity of cultivating the social graces that would have made her attractive to men and she isn’t going to let it happen to her sister and brothers. The children plan a trip for their folks and send them on their way, with Delphie,the maid, and Hope to look after the household. Dick, senior in medical school wants to get married before finishing school, to Jenny Malloy, and does so without his parents’ consent while they are away. Mary, senior in high school, has her friends, Randy Cunningham with whom her parents let her keep company and Miriam Walker, her girl friend who gets Mary to go with her cousin Jack Milford, while her folks are gone on the trip. Bob, a junior in high school is the typical boy of 16 and his friend, Buzz” Dailey, have the toughest of luck when they run into the back of Mrs. Forester's Lincoln, the first day they have an old car they bought. But Sanford Welles, a young attorney settles the matter. And at the end he is to become one of the family, and Hope is very happy. JUNIOR PLAY CAST GOING ON SEVENTEEN” Going on Seventeen” is a delightful comedy in three acts depicting real home life where there is a boy who is going on seventeen. Buddy Carhart and his five henchmen, Shrimpie, Jack, Paul, Pug, and Mickey arc trying their luck at journalism by publishing a bi-weekly magazine. Buddy’s older sister Florence doesn't appreciate their talents and insists that they be kept away from the house while her college friend, Joan, is visiting her. With Joan comes her younger sister, Lillums, who has a way of making Paul and Shrimpie suddenly admire the virtues of feminine companionship—all to the utter dismay of Buddy, who would like to be her sole admirer. Much to the boy’s disliking, Florence has a party to which she invites a few close friends, including Doris, Lou, Madge, Helen, and Claudia. From the idle gossip of these girls is learned that trouble seems to be brewing at the bank where Mr. Carhart, Florence’s father, works. Buddy proves to his mother and to Craig Vincent, the detective posing as a bank clerk, that he can really get a lead on a story and follow it through to a scoop by getting the goods” on Tom Williams, the young bank clerk who is in love with Florence. The play ends with Mr. Carhart—innocent of the embezzlement charge due to the capture of the real thief, Tom Williams, and Buddy’s magazine staff about to receive a five hundred dollar reward for his capture. And with Tom Williams out of the race, Craig has no competition for Florence’s affection. SENIOR PLAY ’•KEEP OFF THE GRASS’ This farce-comedy in three acts, consists mainly of Robert Shelly, his wife, Rose, and their two daughters, Joan and Eleanor. Robert is a chemist whose experiments deal with producing ghosts and supernatural visions. Because of the fact that he has no thought of providing for his family, it becomes the problem of his daughters to do the bread-winning. Mrs. Shelly helps also by turning his laboratory into a furnished room for Paul Webster a young author, a suggestion made by Mrs. Robinson, her sister. Joan's dislike for him drives her to the point of trying to frighten him into leaving and with the help of the unpretending maid. Magnolia, she nearly succeeds. A party is held at the Shelly household and Isabel, Peggy Wanda, Phillip, James and Ralph, a few friends of Joan's and Eleanor’s are invited. In the last scene Joan elopes w'ith Fred Williston, and Eleanor and Paul are brought together.

At the beginning of the year, a party was given for the new members. Last year the G. A. A. bought a trunk and a towel rack which were given toi the athletic department. This year, a special track stop watch has been purchased and will be used for timing in the athletic events. The girls sold pop corn and hamburgers at the games, earning almost twenty-five dollars. Although the girls take no active part in sports other than the weekly gym class on Friday, they are enthusiastic supporters of the boys on the football field, basketball floor, and the track. These girls form the main part of the cheering section at athletic events and are very active in aiding the athletic department in the purchase of articles which are not provided for by the regular athletic fund. ☆ F.

BOYS' CHORUS The boys' chorus of Manlius Township High School is one of the best male choruses organized during recent years in M. H. S. Unlike many other schools,' a large group of boys came out for chorus and actually did good voice work. Many of these boys were not mere vocalists but participated in many other high school activities. Out of this group were selected six boys for an ensemble. With two weeks of practice this group went to Geneseo and won over the only other boys’ ensemble which was from a school where vocal work is a major activity. The Manlius ensemble received second division rating. Very few firsts were received in any of the music events, due to strict judging, but Manlius received five firsts and four seconds in the competition. ☆ GIRLS' CHORUS Every' girl in Manlius High School has the privilege of being a member of the Girls’ Chorus of which Mr. Sweet is the director. If a girl is in any way interested in music, she is advised to join this organization. Members of the Girls’ Chorus are chosen for contest work such as soloists and the ensemble. Their interests in this work are shown by their attending practices regularly. This year there are about forty-five girls in the chorus of which fact we are very proud. ☆ THE GIRLS' ENSEMBLE The Girls’ Ensemble of Manlius High School is composed of Marjorie Lee Allen, Kathleen Barber, first soprano; Leora Hurst, Marzetta Raabe, second soprano; Hazel Schuneman, first alto; Viola Harbath and Marilyn Carlson, second alto. The Ensemble competed for the second consecutive year in the district contests. This year the contest was held at Geneseo where the girls received a first division rating —the only one awarded a first among the schools of all sizes which were entered. Appearances have been made at various public functions. Three out of the present group will be lost by graduation. However, there are many more students with musical talent, who can be used to replace those who are leaving. A TYPICAL DAY AT THE MANLIUS TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL—Continued students who bring their dinners eat their lunch. After finishing, he buys a couple of candy bars from the Junior candy counter, discusses tonight's basketball game with the boys, plays a couple of games of ping-pong, dashes here, goes there—but there goes the bell; signaling that all are to start for their first classes of the afternoon. Susy has long since returned from lunch, and she, too, joins the throng as they go to classes. And so the clock ticks on—-and now it is the beginning of eighth period. Class periods have all been finished, the eighth and ninth periods having been set aside for study or extra-curricular activities. There is no basketball practice these periods today, be cause the boys plays a game tonight, so Johnny, an outstanding forward on the team, meets Susy at the door of the music room. Both are talented in music, and since they are preparing to enter a music contest, they are soon practising under the supervision of their music teacher. Eighth period ends, and Susy leaves her music to attend an important G. A. A. meeting, where plans are being discussed for the sponsorship of an all-school party, while Johnny attends an equally important Student Council meeting, where preparations are under way for the annual school carnival. All too soon the final bell rings and school is over for the day. Susy and Johnny return to the assembly to get their books and a copy of the school paper and take notice of the bulletins on the front board— All-School Play Practice, tomorrow night. Speaker tomorrow. Johnny calls goodbye to Susy and then hurries to catch the bus which will return him to his home, while Susy joins her girl friends. Strolling leisurely home, the girls chatter about the happenings of the day. And so we say goodbye to Susy and Johnny. Goodbye, Kids! It will be sad when you leave our high school, but we are confident that though you are leaving, there will be many more like you who will enter the portals of M. T. H. S. It is the stuff of which you are made that forms the foundation of the citizens of tomorrow. BAND This year, the band has proved to be the biggest and best band School has ever had.
