Four years of studying, preparing for the future and participating in all the various activities. Now as they come to a close we look back upon all the happy times. It is with a shock that we realize that soon we will no longer be high school students living in our own private little world, but citizens with civic duties and responsibilities for which our teachers have tried to prepare us. We will try to use the educational and vocational training we had. Our dates to the junior-senior prom, the senior valentine party, But it will always be a pleasure to look back and recall all the happy times we had. Our dates to the junior-senior prom, the senior valentine party, exciting basketball games and the introduction of football to Manual, the mixers, the beautiful Athena initiationsg the Bentonian and M. F. D. L. neophytes, Red Cross, Student Council, intramural sports and the Service Society. As these four years come to an end we must think of the future. Many schoolday friendships will end as each takes a separate path, some to college and perhaps fame, others to business and marriage. Yes, in future years as we reminisce, it will always be enjoyable to relive our school days at Manual High and Vocational School. Page 5 Dedicated to Frances J.

We, of the 1947 class, believe that we have established a record for democracy that never before has been attained by any of the previous classes of Manual High and Vocational School. We very democratically elected our own sponsors, Miss Ruth Bird and Mr. J. A. Listrom. Our appreciation goes to them for their co-operation and wise counseling. In our Freshman year of 1944 we challenged the Sophomore class to a competitive paper drive and defeated them. With the funds derived from the sale of paper, we presented the library a gift of forty books. In our Sophomore year, we established and ratified our own constitu- tion and have lived up to it to the letter. In the same year we were the first Sophomore class to sponsor a mixer to welcome the incoming freshmen. In our Junior year we treated the Seniors to a very successful Junior- Senior Prom. A good time was had by all. This was the first formal prom given to the senior class in several years. Our Seniors contributed their bit toward guiding the Student Council and Service Society, as all the offices of these two organizations were ably filled by seniors. In October, 1946, the class elected Gordon Kavanaugh as their leader with all the other offices filled also. The feeling of pride, we experienced when we marched down the aisle in the National Honor Society Induction, and the lost feeling we experi- enced when we were out of school for the last two weeks when everyone else was in there plugging, will never be equaled. The Senior Class Day play, The Oracle was a great success and amid heart-rending sobs and floods of tears we close the door on our happy, shel- tered childhood to face with high hopes and determination the journey for- ward. As a fitting farewell we say, May the gods smile down upon you. Page 17 KKKMKKKKKKKK Senior Calendar September 16 . . . After a two-Week delay be' cause of the polio epidemic school opened.

Did you notice some of the gals and guys looking especially slick? Well, senior pictures were taken. Those enthusiastic newcomers to Manual were welcomed in the freshman induction assembly.

This year's staff was chosen at the close of the junior year and met once before the opening of school to discuss plans and ideas for ular meeting days during the first semester were Tuesdays and Thursdays but the group was assigned Staff in 408 for the second semester, during the first hour. the Annual. Reg- The goal of the staff each year is to produce a bigger and better annual than the one of the year before. The result this year is The Builder of 1947. Page 29 KMQQKQKKKKKMKK Ten llears Hence June 3, 1957 Dear John: Remember our graduation back in '47? Have you seen any of the old gang ? I saw Ro-Jean Horton not long ago 3 she is a reporter for the New York Tribune now. She was telling me about an interview she had with Gordon Kavanaugh who is now in the United States Congress, and has high hopes for the presidency in '60, Willie Thompson has really gone up in the world . . . she now owns a chain of dimestores and recently bought out, Barbara Hutton, dimestore heiress. I hear she's now vacationing in Florida where she met Pat Monroe, now a brain specialist, on a well-earned vacation from Menorah hospital. She's still debating the question Should the Federal Government Provide Com- plete Medical Care to All Citizens at Public Expense. And guess where Ro-Jean and I ate? None other than Harden's Grill! Barbara. owns several places, one in New York, two in Kansas City, and four in San Francisco. She now has the title of Mrs. We hear that Professor Bill Vogt is still lecturing on the declination of the compass and is a renowned Meteorologist. Say-do you remember Kathleen Mathis? She has a four-week engage- ment at the Music Hall with her Music-makers and they're bringing the house down. While attending a performance there I met Jane Jones Aubrey in the lobby, still an old married woman. Mary M. Walker visited me not long ago and was recently awarded the Pulitzer prize for that inspiring novel The Knight's Last Night. Charming Katie Mills is now married to Phil Roach who has just coached the Manual team of 1957 to a championship. Mary Jo Pellettiere is also teaching gym at Manual. And Otilia Pequeno has won the ladies' wrestling championship title for the second year. John Williams is coaching West Point in its tenth straight undefeated season. John says if it happens again next season he expects to retire. Dorothy Owens is now vice-president of Southwestern Bell Co. I under- stand she has been offered a position with WDAF and she will be working with Don Vincent now one of the highest paid announcers in Kansas City. And have you heard about the Blakemore-Jewett Circus operated by Page 30 QKKKKKKKKKKMKQSQ Ten Ucars HC-:ncc Jerriann Jewett and Betty Blakemore. They've just added some new ani- mals and it surpasses even the Barnum and Bailey Circus now. When I recently had my picture taken, I went to the Wilkerson Glam- our Studio which is really lovely and owned by Bill Wilkerson. You remem- ber him don't you? . . . He tells me that on his recent flight to New York he met Rose Marie Midena, an air hostess at T. W. A. She told Bill that Bill Gillespie also works at T. W. A. as an aviation mechanic. On that trip they met Joe Bemis who has been working as a traveling salesman but flew to New York to consider the vice-presidency of a manu- facturing firm. Joe told him that Benny McCoy and Chuck Benshoof are teaching elec- tricity at our old alma mater and are doing very well . . . By the way did you know that Joe Caruso was just chosen the best dressed man of the year? I met him at the Music Hall last week when I went to hear Molly DeLuna who is making a personal appearance tour . . . She's been singing at the Metropolitan Opera for the past year . . . Speaking of singing, Morris Cohen as you already know, is even more popular than the favorite of our bobby sox days, Frank Sinatra. Earlier in my letter I mentioned Kathleen Mathis' band but I forgot to say that Vic Arnone is featured with his trumpet and Maurice Phillips with his clarinet. Patricia Farnloff is teaching kindergarten at Franklin grade school where she was once a pupil. I guess you read of Joyce Clevenger, now the famous Sweet Rosie O'Grady, winning the academy award for the best actress of 1956? Every Thursday night over KMBC, June Aubrey sings on her radio program. You must listen sometime, for last week her honored guest was our own James Fisher, now with the Metropolitan opera. . Joe Zapien is one of the biggest weather men in the business Well I guess that's about all I heard from John, so I'll close for now. Let me hear from you soon. As ever, Your Pal, I Georgetta Thompson. Page 31 . KKQQKKKKKKMKM Last lDill and Testament We, Martha Haddock, Lu Ann Bevers, and Nina Graziano leave our un- dying friendship with the athletic boys to Josephine Bua, Marie Palmentere, and Catherine Cacciopo knowing, of course, that they can never be so viva- cious and glamorous as we. I, Josephine Ferroro, leave my operetta to any junior who thinks she can receive all the laughs from it that I have. I, Joe Remis, leave my harem of girls, which has amounted to approxi- mately 565, to that very unworthy junior, Lewis Townsend, who although he is on his way, can never fill my shoes. I, Harvey Frisbie, proud owner of one of the biggest collection of medals in Manual, will the many honors to that struggling junior, Marvin Morrow, who can never carry all that hardware with quite the same air. I, Teresa De Luca, leave my enviable ability to look delectable without the use of make-up, to my sister, Catherine, who can never look half so smooth as I do l I, Frances Capper, will my flaming red hair to that tiny junior Betty Lou Swink knowing of course, no matter how she cares for it, can never achieve the distinct color. I, Otilia Pequeno, leave my tap-shoes to any junior girl who thinks she can take my place with poor Mary Chinn, as I have no idea how she can con- tinue the act without me. I, La Delle Hayes, possessing the largest vocabulary in the Senior Class, do will this asset to that lowly junior Betty Johnson, understanding of course that she can never use such words as I and know what they mean. I, Billy Vogt, tallest tale teller ever to sling the bull, bequeath my ability to exaggerate to David Testorff, who before he can reach my height in story telling must cultivate a much more vivid imagination. I, John Giangreco, as the boy with the most to do, step aside, Conly be- cause I mustl and leave my many positions to Carl Richards, whom I know will never achieve my greatness. I, Ferrill Whitney, one of the handsomest characters at M. H. V. S., will my curly locks and big brown eyes to that lowly junior Jimmy McWhirt. I, Eileen Hardin, leave my get there walk to Jo Ann Norris, who, I know can never get there as fast as I. I, John Sola, undoubtedly the best dancer who ever cut a rug, pass this on, since I must, to my sister, Toni, so as to keep it in the family. I, Billy Evans of Cornv Jokes, Inc., will my joke book and dead-pan manner to Norman Rose who can never wow as many as I have. We, Merryl Maddox and Viriginia Dingman, will our cars and driving ability to any junior who will promise to be more careful than we and not wreck so many fenders. I, Pat Monroe, bestow my endless collection of boy friends to that un- deserving junior, Jean Cunningham, hoping that she has better luck than I in keeping them straight. I, Ruby Mitchell, peppiest thing ever to hit dear old Manual, will all my vim, vigor, and vitality to my fellow cheerleader, Alvina Rasche, for she will need all of it to cheer our team on to victory next year. I, Betty Martin, unquestionably an all-star athlete, leave my ability and good sportsmanship to Alberta Doll who can never hope to imitate the hop, skip, and jump, in my famous one-handed shot. I, Bob Schutty, answer to any maiden's prayer, will my, make 'em swoon Page 32 kksisskkkssmsi s ff Ny , sf was Last lliill and Testament with one look ability, to that junior, Bill Bland who will never have half so many admirers as I. ' ' I, Leila Husted, leave my vast wardrobe to the junior girls as a whole who, of course, can never look as chic nor be quite so delightful as I am. I, Bruce Webb, leave my enviable position as three time all-star to that measley junior, Bob Hougher, who can never achieve half my fame nor fe- male admirers. I, Leroy Smith, best marksman ever, bequeath my position in R. O. T. C. and marksmanship to Roland Adair. I, Nettie Medina, leave my charming personality and sewing genius to that junior, Florence Mangaracina, hoping that she will use them to as good advantage as I have. I, Bill Suiter, bestow my height to that measly little sophomore John Perparas who can use it so well! I, Katie Auldridge, the pride of any teacher for my sweet ways and winning personality, do will them to Merriam Wilson, not that she needs them. I, Bill Wilkerson, leave my flashbulb and camera to Bob Powers along with mv ability to make them smile pretty for the camera. I, Mary Ann Raines, will my quiet, tranquil ways to Doris Naylor, hoping she can keep them with a boyfriend like Bob! I, Salvatore Clementi, bequeath my handsome looks and gentlemanly ways to that not altogether unworthy sophomore, Frank Spellman, who can never be so pleasing as I. I, Jimmy Chrisman, most sought after and admired bov ever to charm the girls with a smile, will my smile and fans to all the junior boys, un- deserving though they may be, knowing that all of them together can never rival my popularity. I, Molly DeLuna. possessor of one of the sweetest voices ever to ring in ye olde halls pass it on to that up and coming junior, Pat Slaughter. I. Joyce Clevenger, best girl orator, leave my unequaled ability to C. C. Fairchild's speech classes next year knowing of course that that will please him greatly. I, Joe Zapien, will my pearly white teeth to any boy capable of caring for them as I have. I, Floyd Green, leave my masculine good looks and huge manly shoul- ders to that undeserving junior. Tommy Deason, who will never have so many girls to lean on them as I have. I, B. T. Baughman. leave my clear. blue eves to Alden White, with sincere hope fbut little faithl that he will keep them as bright as I. We, Don Vincent and Billy Evans, leave our Witty sayings and sharp answers to Larry Gepford. who we know can never continue the show with the same zest as before. I, Billie Gillispie, leave my promotions in R. O. T. C. to Himie Wain- stock, as I know he can never attain my heights! S Dt I, David Welsh, will my position on the swimming team to Dwight 91 s. I, Ruth Kipp, will my blonde hair to Leona Smith. I, Rose Marie Midena. leave mv high position on the Builder staff to any juiiior who is willing to undertake the responsibility and headaches it rings.

Their president, Harlean Helsley has been their leader for two years straight, elected because of her leadership ability and charming personality. This class has an enrollment of little over a hundred students. They are sponsored by Miss Helen Spencer and James Newell. The freshmen have enjoyed their first two years at Manual, going to the football and basketball games, watching the track and swimming teams, par- ticipating in school activities, such as Student Council, Y-Teens, H-Y, mixers, sports, and Pep Club. Their sergeant-at-arms, Gene Burnett, is one of the second team cheer leaders, elected because of his pep and energy.

A l Vina Rasche The Junior Class of 1946-'47, consisting of about 270 members, has contributed in many ways in making Manual High and Voca- tional School the progressive school it is today. Their sponsors are Mrs. M. M. Groves and W. O. Shofstall. The membership of this class in the Pep Club, Literary Socie- ties, football, basketball and swimming teams, debate teams and Service Society is very outstanding. There are also about 30 Juniors on the honor roll this year. The activity of this class dates back to its Freshman year when it gave a mixer for the Sophomores as the payment of a War Stamp contest. Since then it has continued to be very active in all phases of school life. This year the members have chosen their Senior rings. The J unior-Senior Prom was the outstanding event of the year with gay and colorful decorations and music. Every member of the Junior Class is looking forward and ea- gerly awaiting their Senior year and will accept the responsibilities as a complete and organized group.

Those who under- stand the intricacies of annual publication can appreciate this elementary error. The position of business manager is equal in importance to those of the editors-in-chief. It in- volves the handling of contracts, sales of annuals, the ar- rangements o f picture appointments, the collection of money, and the payment of bills. We hope this page will compensate for the error, so evident, on page 29 of the 1947 Builder. -The Builder Staff.

Drake The Spanish classes of 1941 received the charter for the first year of the Student Pan-American League at Manual. All the other high schools in Kansas City were chartered too. Before the war a scrap book giving points of interest in the history of Kansas City, chiefly through pictures, was sent by the club to Venezuela and straightway recognition was given the chapter for its spirit of Neighborliness. Good Neighboru is the keynote of the league. All the programs of the Pan-American League stress becoming familiar with Latin America, and the people and customs of each of the twenty-one countries. The chapter enjoys learning Spanish songs and there are always members who love to dance the typical dances of these countries. Some of Walt Disney's cartoons and films of Latin America too have been enjoyed by the students. One year the club received many of the cartoons of Molino Canipo of Argentina. Each year since other cartoons depicting the same characters have been given the group. Every one of the members reads with great interest all the news about the Pan-American Highway and some day in all probability many of these students will travel this alluring road and will know how to meet these friends of ours in their homeland.

The purpose of the Hi-Y is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community its high standards of Christian character. The platform is built on clean living, clean speech, clean sportsmanship, and clean scholarship. Among the many interesting meetings that were held during the year were two Hi-Y-Y-Teen joint meetings in which Reverend H. H. Gordon spoke on Holy Week and another when Harry Harlan spoke on World Brotherhood? The club made several trips to various places during the year. Among them were the Kansas City Star, Municipal Auditorium, and the Lighting Institute of the Power and Light Company. We, the boys in the club of 1946-47, look forward to seeing a better, finer organization of this club next year. KKQQKKKKMKQQ wX all new X Q NS xt xr V cardiff KK si Row Row Row Row Row lj'-Teen 1.

The Textile Club was organized in 1945 by Mrs. Esther Price. An out- standing factor about the club is that it is the only Textile Club in the Kan- sas City High Schools. The purpose is to stimulate further interest in the study of Textiles, to develop interest in girl's creations of attractive articles for their homes and their wardrobes, to develop an appreciation of material and fabrics on hand, to develop an ability to make wise use of what is on hand, to develop an appreciation and a helpful spirit in the classroom problems of art and construction of useful articles. The motto is Make your good better and your better best. The colors are green and white. Only pupils finishing a project of S quality may becoime members. Each Monday a member contributes a form of textile information to the club. The club has established a Worthy position in Manual High and Vo- cational School for it has given enjoyment and satisfaction to each member by its useful teachings.

The purpose of this society is to create a higher, better standard of speaking and debating ability In the past years it has become the brother society of the Athenas, and beginning this year, began joint meetings with the Athenas. Under the able supervision of Mrs. Esther Price, who took over the society this year the society has again started toward a goal to retain 'their high standards of debating abilities. Many of the men who were members in the 1800's are now prosperous business men in Kansas City and throughout the nation. Each year, these alumni meet at a specified place in Kansas City and have a reunion of all M. S. D. alumni members.

Drivers Education G59 asia ,MQ The Drivers Education class is the first of its kind at Manual. The course was started this year and has been carried out in several different schools in Kansas City. The course was started in order to teach young people the proper tech- nique of driving in order to make Kansas City a safer place to live. Textbooks were made up by the American Automobile Association and are sold in a group of five pamphlets. The home co-operation plan was used to teach the youth of today to be the safe drivers of tomorrow.

This year our games have been much closer than in the previous two years. Coach Cirrincione Coach Cirrineione, Navy veteran and former Crimson star, did a splendid job Ns X xi N W Nt Norman Pence Norman has played on the varsity squad for three years. His first year on the team he played end. Bruce XVebb Bruce was lighter this year than he was in the 1945 season. He has been a spark plug in the Crimson attack. of coaching the second team. Coach W. 0. Shofstall Coach Shofstall was a big aid in train- ing the squad. He spotted plays of our opponents for Coach Oliver and this in itself was a big asset to our linemen. Warren Mcffray Warren McCray. a junior and younger brother of Tom, intends to try out for the team next season. Don Forsee This senior has played on the squad for three years. During Don's first year he played quarterback, but was changed to end for his defensive and pass re- ceiving abilities. Tom lllcCray Tom, a senior has played on the Crim- son squad for two years. His defensive ability was a major asset in stopping opponents gains. I John 'Thompson His long reach was a major asset in stopping opponent line plunges, there was many a time when this towering figure reached out to grab a ball-carrier. John was a junior 2 at the beginning of school, but has since joined the army. Bill Bagnell Bagnell, who is a senior, played tackle for the Cardinals and is one of the big reasons why our line drew respect from other schools. Bill was shifted to the backfield during the latter part of the season. Hob Ade Bob is a senior and this is his first year at Manual but he immediately tried to make the var- sity squad. He left school to join the marines. He hit with plenty of power for a boy his size. Phil Roach His speed on the field was a big asset to the team. Manual is loosing a good end when Phil graduates this June. Phil's quick thinking and fast movements often saved us from losses. He has played on the varsity squad for two years. F E 3 Bob McKe3ne This tall senior has p'ayed on the Crimson team for three years. It was an ordinary sight to see him lreak through the opponent's line and stop a rally. Bob can easily be spotted in a game by that certain walk. Vick Lombardo Vick has played on the team for two years, he expects to be back next year. His hard charging has downed many charging linemen. He will be an asset next season in forming the Cardinal stone Wall. Adrian Bush During the last part of the season he was brought up from the second team, where he proved to be valuable, and placed on the reserves. Adrian is only a sophomore who is rapidly gaining weight. He probably will be one of the outstand- ing linemen in the city in the fall of 1948. Earl Trimble Earl, a senior, has played on the varsity squad for two years. He was a reserve but While he Was in the game he made it difficult for anyone to pass him. The coach could easily rely on him to play his best. x w 5 KXVN XXX t X N Navi XS? fc . ' .v ii qzzuil if 4 , I t mf i John Sola This senior played reserve halfback for Man- ual this year. He has played on the varsity for the past three years and has done a grand job of stopping the enemy attack. John hopes to attend the University of Kansas next year. Bob Schutty Bob, who graduates this June, has played on the varsity squad two years. He was the Crimson reserve center. He was a very capable replace- ment for Kavanaugh. Bob fought with every bit of his energy. Nh XFXNV Xl James Chrisman Jimmie, a transfer student from Central, pro- vided cardinal fans with many thrills. He inter- cepted a pass in the Southeast game that could have meant crimson doom. He graduates in June, and Coach Oliver will find it hard to locate a re- placement for him. James Browning This junior played halfback and end for the Cardinal aggressiveness. Jim will be a headache for the next years opponents. He'll require close watching next season. Frank Spellman Frank is only a sophomore, but his hard charg- ing ability has won him respect from the elder squad members. He will be a big asset in the Crimson line for the next two yars. Big things are expected from Frank next year. Gordon Kavanaugh Gordon has played on the varsity squad three years. He hopes to enter college next fall. He received an honorable mention for the all-star team. John Williams John, a senior, was the heaviest player on the team, Weighing 203 pounds at the beginning of the season. He hit with every pound he had and made our opponents feel it. This was John's third year on the varsity. James Blackburn This guard is a senior and has played on the team for two years. He weighed 175 at the begin- ning of the season. Jim got his biggest thrill in blocking and tackling our opponents.

Coach Shofstallfs third year at Manual provided him with plentypf experienced material. Manual should have a better season next year with a good quality of players coming up from the second team. Coach Oliver aided the team by spotting the plays of the opponents. He also kept percentages for the Cardinals. Mr. Lancaster, business manager, had the responsibility of handling all finances and he has been doing a good job. Page 100 sgsisassagsiss f' F f' 7 . Q. X7 2, ffgfjf iff? ' x. . .

After a long lay off, Manual has re-entered into league competition. In this, our second year, we have made quite an improvement over last year. Tom McCray, team captain, set the pace for the boys. In the meets against Southwest, Northeast, and Paseo, it took the last relay to decide the contests. We lost by a mere seven points to Southeast. Coach Cirrincione expects the squad will be greatly improved next year, since many of the swimmers will be back. Three outstanding underclassmen this year were Dwight Seits, Lewis Townsend, and Adrian Bush. With more boys becoming interested in the team, Manual can look forward to a better season next year.

Something new has been added to the girls' athletic department. That ever-inspiring, thrilling sport-bowling. This year was the first year Man- ual had a girls' bowling team. Girls wanting to learn how to bowl were given an opportunity to do so by bowling at the Walnut Bowl between Walnut and Grand on 14th Street. The bowlers were accompanied by Miss Ivy Clayton and Miss Lee Oma McReynolds every Monday after school. Mr. O'Neal, manager of the Walnut Bowl, promised to present a trophy to the girl bowling the highest score. After this bit of news was known, the girls strived to attain the highest points possible. Each trying to be the lucky one. Patricia Flynn was the winner scoring a score of 172 and Madeline Sanders runner up with a score of 149. Other girls who were lured by the soothing sport were: Rose Marie Christiano, An- geline Armato, Phyllis Walsh, Marie Palmentere, Bonnie Ross, Mary Chinn, Nancy Dickson, Catherine Cacioppo, Billie Culton, Maxine Johnson. Besides enjoying every minute of this new sport, the girls found that this was also another way of acquiring points toward their intra-mural letters.

Stu- dents were selected from each department of the school that serves the Red Cross through classroom projects during the school year. Two mem- bers were also selected to represent each of five classes. Miss Mildred Meuser is the sponsor of this organization. There are twenty-four members of the council and from this group were elected the following officers: Toni Sola, presidentg Jeanette Jame- son, vice-presidentg Yvonne Miller, secretaryg Rollie Baldwin, treasurerg and Dixie Lee Poe, sergeant-at-arms. These officers have served as Manual's delegates at the Red Cross headquarters for occasional inter-city meetings. The first project of the year was the filling of gift baxes for the child- ren of war-torn Europe. Manual went over the top with forty-five boxes containing school supplies and toys for the boys and girls who have suf- fered the privations of war. In December each homeroom filled and decorated a gift box for a dis- abled war veteran at Excelsior Springs or Station Hospital at Fort Leaven- worth. Our president drove to Leavenworth with representatives of the other schools as a guest of the Kansas City Chapter to distribute these boxes. The girls of the sewing classes of Mrs. Nelle Eckles and Mrs. Effie Farnsworth have made numerous articles which are in great demand for Red Cross distribution. The art classes of Miss Grace Leedy have designed and made Christ- mas cards requested by the Red Cross. The woodworking classes of Mr. W. M. Brinton and Mr- James Newell have turned out many useful articles such as canes, bed occupational tables. and craft kits to be used by disabled veterans in hospitals. March brings us to our animal educational enrollment in all the schools of America. Manual students in their customary generosity will wish to belong so that the Red Cross can carry on its great work. Page 121 gt ffglihx Qyxzfigxgfgj fr 427 2 .J X si r s Q-x. X ' V i X ,wiv XS N VN?

The advanced girls chorus joined with the choir and band to give a final big music program of the year, and also gave a musical tea at which solos and. small groups Within the organization performed for guests.

James Palmesino High school bands are universally considered the musical organization which can always arise to the occasion. Our Manual High and Vocational School Band is no exception. This fact has been shown by their ability to play for nearly every assembly this year, for football games, basketball games and the Cardinal Capers. The band department has grown this year. We now have a group of 43 members. In addition we have a group of beginners numbering 32 who will be concert band members next year. This will make 2. nice beginning for next year but we still need many beginners on the reed and woodwind instruments. The students of the band have shown that they have musical .abilitv and have done much to improve their tone quality and technical knowledge this year. Let us set our goal at an eighty piece concert band and then work hard to attain that goal. Page 127 KKQQCKKKKMKMKM f fag? X ' fki' we ' 'Debate Row 1.

The affirmative side was strong in its contention to make medical help available to all citizens by providing a socialized medical system. Their main points for changing our present medical system were that the doc- tors Were not distributed satisfactorily in rural sections and that the finan- cial aspects were not satisfactory. The negative believed that to have a socialized medical system would make our country politically corrupt. It was their belief that the medical system should not be changed as it is the best in the world. During the year Manual students participated in debates With Paseo, East, Northeast, Southwest, Westport, Central, and Raytown. f eaten NCARDINAL CAPERSU BAND Roy Tharp, Director James Palmesino, Student Director Jimmie Abbolito, Victor Arnone, Frank Barrera, James Blackburn, John Brown, Jolene Brunk, Pete Catalano, George Cezar, Joanne D'Anna, Anthony DeLuca, Carol Gaggins, Darlene Land, Lenora Leasure, Louis Lipari, Vincent Lipari, Ronald Lockhart, Anthony Lombardo, Mike Lombardo, Nick Macaluso, Kathleen Mathis, Dorothy Nobles, Dorothy Owens, James Palmesino, Richard Penson, Maurice Phillips, Jack Pugh, Bob Quattle- baum, Ricardo Ramirez.

Page 125 X 1 ti Best Feature Story Submitted to The Manual Craftsman in 1946-47 'The Unexpected 1.16011 Czfmfinylz am '48j It was a filthy house, a hole of a p'ace on the wrong side of the tracks. From the creaking boards there escap- ed an odor not uncommon in this town where the main occupation was mining and the men lived in blackness. There was a faint covering of grey snow over everything which none seemed to notice as they hurried toward home and a warm dinner. On this particular night Albert Johnson was smiling as he walked up' the cracked old steps to hi-s house where he and his young daughter Marian lived. It was Christmas Eve and he had a fat pay check in his pocket and a small but lovely necklace under his arm for Marian. In this town of dirt and sickness she cravcd, but got, so little beauty and light. Maybe a new dress would have been more practical but this was for Christmas and she should have what she wanted! As he walked through the door he heard sobs in the kitchen and hurry- ing through the hall he heard Marian shriek, He won'tl He just couldn'tl I told him about it so I know he'll take me! I know itl'l Defiant, as she -said it a faint hint of doubt seemed to be evident and the sobs grew more frenzied. Baby, whatls the matter? Here we can't have this on Christmas Eve, said Albert as he gently lifted her from the floor into his strong lap. Now Marian turned to him and whis- pered, 'tOhl Daddy, you will take me to Christmas service at the big church across town, won't you? Greta said you wouldn't but I told her you would and I even made her iron your white shirt. Albert was indignant that Greta, the housekeeper, thought he wouldn't keep his promise to Marian. Yes, of course, he would take her even though he knew the uptown people hated these miners very bitterly, not realizing they were their only source of wealth. ' Slowly he turned his head and gave her a reassuring smile. As he shaved he thought of how different Christ- mases are. Marian looked very nice in her shabby' coatg her face shone with angelic pleasure as she skipped along the darkening street. As they ap- proached the church yard bells seemed to foretell the complete happiness in store for this innocent child of God. The pastor stood in his lofty pul- pit and his friendly face beamed upon the congregation. He told of Jesus being born in a poor little man- ger. How this little child stirred wise mcn and shepherds alike to want a better life. VVhile the minister, born of wealthy parents, bowed in humble recognition of a Higher Power, Marian sat enrap- turod. A little girl sitting next to her smiled and moving closer, held out her hymnal so Marian could share it. Albcrt's voice took on a more joyful ring when he noticed his daughter and he had not been slighted. 'tNoel seemed to ring with gladness. Maybe it was the spirit of Christ- masg maybe these fashionable uptown people weren't so coldg but Albert knew he would always be welcome to attend this church. A littel later when Marian and Al- bert started home, Marian expressed her feeling of humbleness this way, Daddy, I guess wherever people go and build pretty things for Jesus everybody likes everybody else. Why one little girl even Walked down the steps with me while you talked to her daddy. Christmas is so nice when peo- ple love you! 7 7 1 Cofflpcratiuc Gccupational Education This course has been provided for the pupils in this school as a service to help them obtain occupational experiences While attending school. The school cooperates with business and industry in this enterprise. The pupils enrolled in this program enjoy many advantages. They ob- tain experiences in occupations of their choiceg they develop skills and ob- tain information essential to full-time employmentg they make practical applications of skills and processes learned in school and they have the benefit of school supervision and guidance in the solution of job adjustment problems. A maximum of two years occupational experience may be obtained through this program. The following seniors who have participated for two years deserve special mention: Frances Capper, Salvatore Clementi. Isal belle Dobbins and John Freytag. Sixty-four pupils have been enrolled in the program this year. Forty employers have helped these young poeple to learn the actual practices in business and industry. The variety of occupations represented indicates the choices of each pupil enrolled in the program. The annual picnic was held at Swope Park. Everyone had a good time and the juniors are planning a bigger and better picnic next year. Full-time employment is the goal of every pupil enrolled in this pro- gram. The majority of the pupils will achieve this goal because they have been enrolled in C. O. E. H. W. LANCASTER, C0-0wZi1Lat01'. Page 137 miss Ularqarct Tdqlor Miss Margaret Taylor came to Manual from Paseo, replacing Miss Louise Hatch, former counselor. This is her first counseling job, as she taught English at Paseo. She taught two years in Lamont Iowa, and two in Los Angeles, California. Received her Ph. B. degree from University of Chicago, her Master degree from University of Kansas City. She commends Miss Hatch on the organization of Counsel0r's office by saying, Miss Hatch has done such a splendid job of organizing the office that it has made it much easier for me. She thinks highly of both Manual faculty and studentsg they have done much to make her job easierg also commented on how clean the halls are. Her hobbies are whistling and collecting glass animals. Favorite foods, although she says, I love all foods, include steak, french fries, salads and ice cream. The traits she admires in one are pleasing personalities and ability to co-operate.
