Good breeding is really good sen e It is composite Among its requisites are tact, courtesy, reliability, unselfishness, and honesty If you can listen to unkind words a bout another and refrain from contributing, if the truth is a familiar friend of yours, if you respect those to whom respect is due, or if you only smile with true friendliness then you show earmarks of good breeding To have or to acquire these traits pays dividends People instinctively practice the Golden Rule It stands to reason that increased civility to others on your part will in variably net an increase in friendliness toward you Good breed ing is not confined to any one individual A clever person will realize that good breeding is available to all and acts accord ingly. So, 1sn't good breeding 'good sense?' A . . , Make-up-Editor ---- ------- Rosada Lamp ----- -------C O HKU!

Bob Wooster--Bob has been a steady and dependable man through- out the entire season. Bob's graduation will leave a big opening in a forward spot next year. Bill Cook--Bill, an all-around athlete, was a mainstay for the Ramblers this year. He was outstanding on defense and could be depended upon for an extra basket when it was really needed. He was captain for the season. Sid Abraham--As a starting senior, Sid plays a cool, deliberate game, thinks well, and has a good eye for the basket. His gradu- ation in May will leave another opening in the starting lineup next year. X J. P. Cook--Our six-foot snphomore center, J. P., was the only underclassmen starter in the lineup. A consistent scorer and a good man on defense, he should really make it tough for his op- ponents next season. Bill Ellis--Bill was the shortest member on the squad, but his speed and exceptional shooting eye made him a dangerous threat. Bill, a junior, is expected to give the opponents plenty of trouble next year. Howard Foss--Though small, Howard was a virtual ndead eyen and could always be depended upon for a basket or two when put in as a replacement. He helped the Ramblers through many close games throughout the season. Clyde Hollister--Clyde, a clever junior forward, is ready and capable of being a mainstay in Mapleton's starting lineup for the following season. He has seen much action throughout the year starting a few games. 4 Bill Jensen--nJens,N a reliable substitute, displayed good teamwork throughout the season--his last. He also helped to keep the entire team in high spirits. , Charles Wightman--Charlies, a senior, was another reserve who saw much action throughout the season. Though he is small his , effort offset his size. k Tom Scheer--Tom has shown up very well in his first season with the basketball squad. An all-around athlete, he also will graduate as a prominent member of the Class of 1946. Ivan Zedikhr--Although only a freshman, Ivan is considered a future threat to all of Mapleton's opponents. Watch him progress the next three seasons. Ray Sayers--A dependable junior, Ray will undoubtedly develop into a smooth ball handler for the next season. He is an artist of the one handed push shot. eases at ass W W The Mapleton girls' basketball team has just ended its second season With the close of this season the onlooker can note evi dence of improvement and increased coordination among the players due to consistent practice and the able coaching of Miss Wilson, the girls' director Although the team's season was not too successful the girls played several fine games some of which were close The girls perhaps were not quite aggressive enough but they displayed much enthusiasm and were clean, sportsmanlike players All in all, the outlook for next year's team is bright Audria HcClatchey was high point girl e.afu0sfn!lVU-KE Edith Kunkel Hia pea brain Nan McV1cker Huba Huba'l!

Each year, certain occasions arise which enable not only the MHS chorus but also residents of Mapleton and surrounding towns to appear in a public performance. The first of those occasions this year was the presentation of parts of Handel's 'Messiah' on Sunday evening, December 16, in the new auditorium. A chorus of approximately one hundred voices under the direction of the Y I Mapleton basketball game, which is to be held here on Friday, . . At A 'safe WA5 music instructor, Mr Iseminger joined in this presentation and an outstanding performance was given Palm Sunday evening, April 14, witnessed 'the second f these performances when Mr Iseminger will present a chorus 1 'The Seven Last Words As to additions to the instrumentation of the concert band, plans are being made for the purchasing of a piccolo, a soprano saxophone, and an E flat clarinet sometime this spring In conclusion we may say that this year has been a very enjoy able one for everyone connected with the Music Department which was so capable managed by Mr Iseminger M SEI GEUWI S Ah yes! the time drew near again when every music student became 'very' devoted to his practicing, and much to the sur prise of everyone, even managed to miss some of that all too important 'beauty sleep' to come falteringly into the building at 8230 a m either to blow or to sing lustily until the passing of first period classes Yes, this was in preparation for the well known Pre State Music Contest Quite a large number of events were entered this year both astically to equal the records set by the music students of '45 As usual, the MHS chorus and the concert band both gave another of their successful performances with the chorus using the two beautiful choral works, 'O Bone Jesu' and 'Lost in the Night,' and the band, the overture 'The Traveller' and 'Bless This House ' Also, in spite of the fact that a boys' glee club was not organized this year, a girls' glee club of forty voices diligently rehearsed and presented 'Bells of Evening As to the various small instrumental groups, an encouraging number were entered alternating between trios and quartets In cluded in these groups were: Saxophone Quartet Margaret Etchison, Jack Ganzhorn, LeRoy Hodges, Nannette Mcvicker Brass Quartet Sidney Abraham, Bill Jensen, Robert Langholz, Bob McVicker Woodwind Quartet Warren Albertson, Evelyn Jennings, Theresa Theobald, Arthur Thomson B flat Clarinet Quartet Eloise Belknap, Berta Lou lbll, Audria McClatchey, Joan Tripp Trumpet Trio Sidney Abraham, Robert Langholz, Rita Th obald ffgfogf no - o . n .n 6 if vocal and instrumental.

Each member participated at least once in serving on the re- freshment committee, or in one of the various types of entertain- ment. The group traveled to Denison on March 5 for a skating party A picnic in the spring concluded a successful year of instructive and constructive work for all members of Eta lu Gamma. i , mp. : .:: . . v .1 I .

This saved much time and labor. As an example, take the case of Mr. Iseminger. Instead of traveling the 'many miles' from the music room to the office, he could just reach into his pocket, pull out his pencil and there the date was! The club also sponsored many dances after basketball games and were co-sponsors with the Pep Club in the homecoming dance after the Mapleton-Onawa football game. To keep the cheering students from being entirely worn out at the county tournament, they sold pop, hot dogs, and pop corn. This was much appreciated by the pupils from all the towns par- ticipating. As this annual goes to press, the M-Club is making plans to erect a victory bell in the spring. '- - ' 3-uns,W,4--'Q-. 2 , , x ' 1 'P' , P :tg 'vUi,w' -m.,: In P 'st , , his I ..,,.
