However near or remote the events were to us, they constituted a part of our development. Unusual history was made. The Chino-Japanese War, the Spanish Civil strife, the occupa- tion of Austria by German dictator Adolf Hitler, the resignation of Anthony Eden, British Foreign Min- ister, and the defeat of President Franklin D. Roosevelt's plan to en- large the United States Supreme Court were set down as records that defy the tooth of time. In a smaller way events of mo- ment in the ,activities of students, teachers, and administrators have occurred la t Maplewood-Richmond Heights High School which are chronicled here in the l938 Maple Leaves. DEDICATION A tireless energy that has made possible the past eleven issues of Maple Leaves, a mind that has steadfastly continued to spread its knowledge to countless students, and a char- acter that has been inspiration- al to pupils and teachers alike -these are the qualities which we recognize in Miss Della Nickles. lt is to her that the Maple Leaves of l938 is dedi- cated.

From an inauspicious beginning as a rural school, the Maplewood and Richmond Heights district became a village school in l906. The next year the tirst high school was established, with Miss Clara Wilder as superintendent and Miss Cornelia Brossard as principal. The school has had only tour other superintend- ents. They are Mr. Robertson H908-l9l5l, Wil- liam Schleuter ll9l5-l9l6l, J. Richmond ll9l6- l93ll and then G. E. Dille who has served from l93l to the present time. His capability has been G. E. DILLE Superintendent of Schools shown by the progressive pro- gram which he has inaugurated. Mr. Dille and the Board of Education have been ably assisted by E. R. Adams, who has been principal ot the high school since l925, and George Vossbrink, our E'R'ADAMS assistant principal since l932. Principal of Senior High School These two have added to the usual high school curriculum a boys' coaching class, a guidance class, and projected a conserva- tion course. The history of the school district has been one of continuous building and improving. During the administration of Mr. Richmond the district grew rapidly and many building programs were sponsored by the superintendent and board. Under Mr. Dille numerous improvements have been made. G, W- VOSSBRINK The latest school bond issue was voted in l932 for Sl 52,000. Assistant principal This money was used to build the addition to the Senior High School extending east from the main entrance, the north wing to the West Richmond School consisting of six rooms, and New Lincoln School on Thomas and Laclede. SM MAPLE LEAVES ADMINISTRATION During the past seven years other indica- tions of progress sponsored by the superin- tendent and the board of education are as follows: the employment of a part-time school physician who examines school chil- dren regularly and makes reports to the Board of Education on health conditions of the schools, the establishment of a definite salary schedule based on tenure and train- ing of teachers, accumulative sick leave for employees, a definite program of standard achievement and mental tests, transpor- tation of all junior and senior high school pupils who live more than one-half mile from both schools, employment of all teach- ers, janitors and other employees with pay- ments distributed on a twelve month basis, improvement of the athletic field at the high school by elevating it one foot in the center for better drainage and sodding it, widening the four lane track to a six lane track all around, stone retaining wall on the east and south side of the field, paving Martini Drive from Manchester Road to Rannells and building a six foot sidewalk along the same from Manchester to the east gate of the school grounds, building an iron fence between the West Richmond property and the property of private indi- viduals north of the school grounds, build- ing an iron fence around the extra play- ground north of Glades Avenue at Richmond Heights School, building four tennis courts at West Richmond School and surrounding them with an iron fence, building an iron fence at Sutton School between the school grounds and the private property north of the school, grading, leveling, terracing and sodding the West Richmond School grounds, establishing a program of continuous beautification of school grounds by the planting of shrubbery and flowers.

First the Freshman, and nothing does he know But lives in highest hopes that some day he may grow Then the Sophomore, lording o'er the Frosh, Showing that he's hot stuff' by prattling lengthy bosh Next the Junior, most carefree of the lot, Who hopes to look like Esquire to the smallest check and dot. And last the Senior, tall and bold, Who knows it all and can't be told. And then he graduates at last, But comes back to see the teachers and to talk about the past. Time goes you say? Oh nol Alas, Time stays, we go. -Austin Dobson Who can say that the senior activities have been numerous this year? No one. But everybody agrees that they were well-done. An excellent example of this was the Senior Play, the produc- tion and acting of which were on a high artistic level. Rita Cook deserves special praise for her splendid emoting , and the rest of the cast should also be commended for their good work. The pro- ceeds from the play helped slightly to finance the Senior Dance, where Marian Williams reigned as Annual Queen. During the year, seniors were infrequently saved from drud- gery by musical assemblies, The most outstanding of these featured the Missouri Choir with Laura Louise Dille as solo violinist, and the Westminster Choir. ln the realm of business, much work was accomplished by the Senior Executive Committee under its chairman Harry l radio- man l Cheshire. Among other things, the committee selected the senior rings, chose the orchestra and committee for the Prom, and sent out announcements for the fatal day in June. lt might be well to mention also some of the more prominent seniors in the field of clubs and athletics. Blanche Gross and Robert l-loffelt deserve a high place for their work in Forensics, Charles Jenkinslshould be' ibut rarely isl praised for his brain-work on the Chip , and l-lelen Steward, president of G. A. A., Marian Williams, G. R. president and Hadley Ray, president of l-li-Y are worthy of recognition for their smooth management of club activities. Notice must be made, finally, of the celebrated heroes of the field and floor, Joe Hennessey and Mel Flint, and of publicity-shy Roy Aston, who was considered by Coaches Douglas and Wagner to be the most promising football player of the year MAPLE LEAVES 'Q CLASS OF JANUARY 1938 Watters Edmonds Benson Allen Caldwell Clark Cook Decker Egbert Franke Gruner Harper Heidbrier Hilliar GLEN WATTERS Still Watters run deep.

Thirty-Three M7 Thirty-Four Oh aching timel O moments big as years! --Keats The l937-38 school year has seen the freshmen, sophomores, and juniors active in their respective classes. Through class officers and by means of committees many problems of school life have been taken care of, and assembly programs, parties and dances have been planned. Programs given this year for the three under-graduate classes included: the Torch Ritual, concerts by the WPA Orchestra and by the Maplewood-Richmond Heights High School Band under Mr. Van Meter's direction, plays given by the dramatic classes, and community singing led by Robert Hoffelt. Outstanding performers who have entertained the juniors in- clude: Dr. Tolley, pastor of the Second Baptist Church of St. Louis, several Webster High School musicians, Joe Merello, Junior High School cornetist, and Dr. Gaynor, who talked about ballads and sang some. E The assembly programs of the sophomores included Bert Granoff, former Maplewood and Dartmouth graduate, who sang, Charlotte Hazylette, who led the homerooms in the Big Apple, a student talent program, and several parties. Entertainment was given the freshmen classes by M-r. Brown who played the piano, Mr. Seubert, Mr. Dille, and Rev. Homer, who spoke, Maurice Dampier, who described his European trip, the Radio Club, the Rostrum, and Mr. Peanut, who grew nine inches. All three classes have been active, each holding, besides prac- tice dances, several major ones. The Annual Sophomore Swing proved enjoyable, likewise'did the Freshman Dance and the Junior Prom at which many of the difficulties of previous proms were overcome. These various programs and activities have served their pur- pose in educational and recreational value.

Maplewood was fortunate in being represented by a football team of championship caliber in the B divison for the l937 season. i The squad, which will go far in composing the varsity teams of the next few years, had a record of five games won and one tied. Working as a precision-like machine under the competent guidance of Coach Rath, the club literally trampled all opposition, lf the team could be said to possess any stars, the names of Bud Moessmer and Ray Badock MR. RATH would stand out. These boys supplied the main scoring punch. Coach Bud Moessmer was elected honorary captain.

Basketball enthusiasts saw some exciting and closely scored games this season due largely to a strong defense which the team developed under the leadership of Coach Douglas. Although the final tally indi- cated nine losses and six victories, the boys played more superior ball than this record indicates. Special distinction was conferred upon Joe l-lennessey and Melvin Flint, who were named on the All County Team, and upon Roy Aston and Melvin Flint, who were elected co-captains at the end of the season.

The excellent record of nine won and three lost may be explained by the very efficient coaching of Mr. Rath and the fine spirit shown by the team. This season the B games were played immediately preceding the varsity tilts. Making for a keener spirit of competition, this practice became a set rule. Wilbur Doyle was elected honorary captain and truly deserved the distinction, as he proved himself to be the team's mainstay throughout the season.

Preparation for the I938 track season began February 25 with Coach Rath directing the practice of both runners and those participating in field events. The senior squad com- peted in meets over a period of seven weeks from March 24 to May l4. Maplewood-Richmond Heights' first contest with St. Louis l-ligh was the first defeat suffered in a dual contest in three years. Ed Weiss was high point man in this competi- tion, scoring l8 points. The senior track team retaliated by defeating Webster Groves by as close a score as they were defeated in the St. Louis U. meet. Outstanding Maplewood Performers Were: , - , E.

Under the competent leadership of Coach Rath, Maple- wood-Richmond Heights High School was represented by a tine Junior track squad, which competed in three dual con- tests and one quadrangle meet. ln the dual meets they were undefeated. Many good prospects tor next year's Senior track team were developed, and a number ot boys will remain Juniors for l939, so the track outlook for next year is ex- ceedingly bright. The Juniors began the season encouragingly by defeat- ing their tirst two opponents, St. Louis U. High, and Central High. Kenneth Lutz was high point man in the tirst engage- ment scoring I5 points by winning three events-50, l00 and 220 yard dashes. New School Records LUTZ--2, ,-,l00 yd. dash,,---,--..,,l0.7 sec.

However, in spite ot the tact that the administration threat- ens each year to abolish it, the boys volunteer in such large numbers that it is retained on the roster of sports. This year an inexperienced team found strong opposition. With the few returning stars, Schilly, Wherry, Reigert, and Mclnroy as a nucleus, Mr. Wagner, the coach, produced a splendid team.

Of writing, and of magic and of how a doorbell rings And why our radio won't work, and how the glee club sings. A fellow student stood at hand with wonder in his eyes, That such a lot of info from his knowledge did arise. Said he, That's 'cause in all my clubs my brain I exercise. The school, you see, has lots of clubs providing recreation For all your tired brain cells when they need a good vacation. They also help your mind by giving helpful information. As time goes on , the student said, the clubs enlarge their scope And doors of entertainment to the students they will 'ope'.

To honor those students who have demonstrated through scholar- ship, leadership, character and service, that they have chosen the high road of life, Torch was established five years ago at Maplewood-Rich- mond Heights High School, Members are selected by the faculty from the upper class groups, semi-annually, No more than fifteen percent of the graduating class may be chosen. Miss Barkley, whose own principles are so similar to those high standards of the Society, gives much time and energy to per- fecting the organization and its ceremonies.

Meetings were held twice monthly during class periods-the most interesting hours of the shorthand course. What fun was had trying to win the spelling matches, so famous in grade school days, and what helpful knowledge gained! A humorous play, We Stenographers Three , was presented, which brought forth great gales of laughter from the easily amused audience, as well as a more serious play, A Saturday Morning In An Office. The club offered opportunities to all members, as they had the privilege of hearing a talk by Mr. Adams on The Qualifications of a Stenographerf' and one by Mrs. Irene Blood, Personnel Director of Scruggs-VandervoorbBarney, on What is Expected of a Stenographer.

To find and give the best, -the purpose of the Girl Reserves, was Sixty-Two this year as always the goal of the chapter. The group endeavored to follow the gleam, and from beginning to end opportunities arose to test the girls' ability to be 'ever dependable', and 'ready for service.' First came the Thanksgiving Charity Dance, second, Christmas pro- vided the chance to make others happy, third, Easter brought forth another call to help. These more serious activities were interspersed by a skating party with the Hi-Y Boys, a swimming party at the Y. W. C. A., and two lectures: one, by Miss Yang of the Chinese G. R., and the other, by Mrs. Akimoff of Russia. The Spring Dance concluded the year. lt is with regret but pleasant memories the seniors leave G.

Since the Senior High School S'vengali was founded in October, l93l, it has been active within its own organization and ready to furnish entertainment to other groups on short notice. The feature event of the year is the annual show. The proceeds are used for new tricks and materials for the club, magazines of magic and pins, which are given to members who secure points for the number and quality of tricks performed. This year outside shows were given at the Carpenter Branch Library, the Christian Endeavor of the Maplewood Congregational Church, and the Junior High School. The club has eleven active members who perform at each semi- monthly meeting under the direction of Mr. Loyd Starrett.

Early in the year Robert Fritze and Russell Corvey represented Maplewood-Richmond Heights at a meeting to form a chess league. This was organized under the name of the St. Louis High School Chess League. The team which represented Maplewood in the League contests was chosen from the club membership by virtue of the students' records in games played at the regular meetings of the organization. Eight members and several substitutes form the personnel of the team. Letters were earned by those who played in six League Tournaments. Members playing on the teams were J. Amsden, P. Paul, L. E. Cox, R. Corvey, M. Johansen, F. Roberts, R. Fritze, S. Wolff, T. Krakover, G, Finger.

The Radio Club, founded this year and sponsored by Mr. Funke, is the youngest, but one of the most active, of our organizations. On February 8, l938, the club received its station license and its call letters, which are WGQUT. During the year three members: J. Doyle Gooch, president, Ray Lutz, vice-president, and Bill Jarzembski passed the examination and obtained their Amateur Radio Operator's license from the Federal Government. The examination, given every three months is made-up ot ten questions on the theory and law of communications, and requires also that one be able to receive in code l3V2 words per minute. At club meetings the main activity is communicating with other ham operators. On May lO, an assembly program was given at which contact was established with Clayton, and the audience was able to hear several students and teachers of Clayton speak Officers President L L - L L L L ,, c A J.

In accordance with the increased interest in photography by Maplewood-Richmond Heights High School students, the Camera Club was organized this year with Miss Herman as sponsor. The club was unique in its organization, for no regular meetings were held. Members, instead, were free to use the fully equipped dark room for developing pictures, and to discuss photography whenever they wished. As the main activity of the club was to take pictures, the members were directed along these lines. Each week Miss Herman assigned certain types of pictures to be taken, such as track men in action and front entrance views. However, pictures of scientific subjects, such as birds, wild flowers, and animals, and pictures taken through the microscope were the chief interests ofthe cameramen. The members advanced so rapidly in skill that the club made a superior showing at the Stix, Baer, and Fuller Pho- tography Contest held May l6.

The Girls' Athletic Association, founded at Maplewood High in l924, again this year offered its members a varied program of activities. Under the guidance of Miss Mitchell, girls' physical education instructor, the club sponsored intramural, as well as interschool games in hockey, basketball, volleyball, baseball, ping-pong, tennis, badminton, and archery. For the first time, a team of G. A. A. girls, Helen Steward, Grace Horton, Dolores Pritchett, and Lois Burke, participated in the showmanship class at the Mississippi Valley Kennel Club Dog Show, March 26, where they carried off top honors. Social functions, the Puff-Pant Prom, the Fall Sports Spread, the Christmas Dance, and the annual Spring Banquet, held this year at the Castilla, added the necessary gaiety to the year's activities.

Sponsored by Miss Mitchell, the Pep Club swung into its second year of activity at Maplewood-Richmond Heights High School. The chief activity of the club centered around the aim of the organization, which is to create more and better cheering. The group performed at all high school athletic contests throughout the school year wearing the current costume-a white beer jacket and a dark blue wool skirt. The girls showed their ability in formation at the Maplewood-Uni- versity City football game, November ll. They formed both schools' letters on the field, marched in formation with the high school band, and formed various designs while seated in the cheering section. ln these exercises the girls were trained by Miss Mitchell and led by the two cheer leaders, Betty Jo Baxley and Georgia Breitenstein. The club extended its activities this year when it sponsored Pep dances in the fall and in the spring.

Although A Cappella is the most recent musical club to be organized at Maplewood-Richmond l-leights, it has definitely made a place for itself in the esteem of both faculty and students. Those who have graduated since it was founded in i932 will probably retain the echoes of its heavenly harmonies long after the thirty-seventh proposi- tion and the sonnets of Shakespeare have been forgotten. Miss Woodward, the sponsor for the past two years, has selected a group whose voices are most perfect in blend and quality. Thelma Connor, a senior, served again this year as student director. Others who have shown unusual ability are Mary Louise Aldridge, Margaret Kraus- haar and George Finger. The public performances of the choir included, broadcasting over KWK on November l8, singing at Soldan on November l9, appearing before the County Council of P. T. A. on January 26, and taking part in the first mid-year graduation exercise on January 27.

Several years ago Maplewood-Richmond Heights stu- dents with musical interests belonged to a glee club known as the Melba . lt was composed of sophomore, junior and senior girls. ln later years, however, the club has been called the Maplewood-Richmond Heights Girls' Glee Club, and is composed ot interested girls from all tour classes. lt has as its able director, Miss Hettie Mae Woodward. Activities were inaugurated with a musical tea, and one program followed another throughout a busy year. The girls sang in assemblies, over KWK on the Greater St. Louis Secon- dary Schools' Program, November l8, at the Senior play, March ll and l2, for the County Council of the P. T. A., January 26, for the Sutton P. T. A., February Zi, and for the June graduation exercises. A trio, selected from the club and composed of Mary Louise Aldridge, Margaret Kraushaar and Helen Wamsganz, entertained with pleasing harmonies on numerous occasions during the school year. M A P i.

Some research into the Maple Leaves ot the past brings to light the information that a boys' glee club was organized in l92l by Miss l-lathaway. lt was made up of boys from the upper three classes, and its activities for the year sound as varied as those of the i938 group. This year again brought opportunities for public appear- ances. Programs were given in assembly, at the County Coun- cil ot P. T. A., January 26, the Sutton P. T, A., February Zi, and the Maplewood Rotary Club, March l. Their last per- formance was at the June graduation exercises where they sang with the Girls' Glee Club. Also on the graduation pro- gram was a mixed quartette composed by Catherine Town- send, Betty Billings, from the Girls' Glee Club, and David Sivcovich, and Al Mahon, from the Boys' Glee Club, Through the fine work ot the boys, Maplewood-Richmond Heights has become well-known and has made rapid progress in musical appreciation. 1 9 3 8 Seventy-Five UB HE ll ll Row l: Wherry, Fisher, Widdicoinbe, Lutz, Moessmer, Mason, Schilly, LeResche, Powell.

This club is an honorary organization of all the major letter winners. These letters, which entitle a boy to membership, may be earned in Varsity football, basketball, baseball, and junior or senior track. The initiation of new members takes place immediately after the presen- tation of basketball letters. The primary purpose of the organization is to promote a feeling of co-operation among the athletes of the school. During the past year, the football dance, and a Varsity-Faculty basketball game were sponsored by the members. The Gym, made fes- tive with blue and gold, was the setting for the dance over which Virginia Ray, the queen of the evening, presided. The basketball game surpassed any other for hilarity. Faculty members who participated were Messrs. Welden, Gregg, Douglas, Rath, Piggott, Wagner, l-larlan, Oeth and Kemper. Mr. Adams contributed his services in the positions of Manager, Coach, and Cheer Leader. Each year it is the privilege of the club to choose the type of letters to be awarded and kind of sweaters to be worn. Ticket sales are en- thusiastically undertaken by this group, and in all activities which pro- mote school spirit, they participate.

With lovely colored lanterns, multiple-colored crepe paper streamers, silver cloth and wandering spot lights the gym was transformed into a quaint and romantic oriental garden, a perfect setting for the retinue of girls selected to compose the court of love and beauty. ln a ceremony both colorful and impressive, the Queen-Elect, Virginia Kelly, received from the lovely retiring Queen, Dorothy Renkel, a crown of fragrant flowers, the symbol of her popularity. The Maids-of-Honor to the Queen were two senior girls, Marjorie Lang and Evelyn Matthews. Her attend- ants chosen from the Junior Class by the Seniors, were Dolores Pritchett, Lois Burke, Alice Ray, Janice Martin, Kay Hesse, and Mary Lee Hickey. The procession, an- nounced by heralds, Jane Collins and Dorothy Reese, passed through a ribbon-marked aisle formed by twelve junior girls: Dorothy Schrick, Dorothy Hallowell, Dorothy Steitz, Opal Pate, Jackie Davis, Mary Lane, Barbara Lane, Pearl Boggs, Betty Harkins, Betty Jo Baxley, Celeste Brown, and Phyllis Charnock. The aisle was petal strewn by the flower girls, Skipper Price and Peggy Jean Kolasch, and the crown was borne to the throne by little Sonny Kolasch.

Wheelock The Maplewood School District was born practically in the new wild- erness west of St. Louis. lt was considered out in the country, and families fleeing from St. Louis at the slightest warning during the Civil War, traveled to their country estates in top-heavy buggies, and sought refuge here and in Webster. The children of laboring farmers and merchants all attended the little white school house, built on posts, containing one room and six grades, located at Manchester and McCausland. As educational needs advanced, and St. Louis and County separated, a frame building somewhere in the woods west of Big Bend was rented in l877. Time flies. The Benton Valley School site was purchased and a one room school was built. Two years more, and a room and two grades were added. Then, as all things end, so did the life of the two-room school house. ln l892, a wonderful eight room, two story frame building housed all the pigtails and sling shooters in the Maplewood School District. Two more grades were added. ln l9Ol, the taxpayers proudly pointed to a spectacular three-story brick building which replaced the frame one. An election was held and the rural school district became a village school district. The Board of Directors was enlarged by three and now numbered six. They provided for the establish- ment of two more schools, which are now called Sutton School and Richmond Heights School. Pupils desiring four years more of education had to go into St. Louis at considerable expense. Because of popular demand and necessity, a high school was started in the frame building east of Valley School. lt had been previously built to accommodate the over-flow of the third grade before the other two schools had been built. A woman was named first superintendent. ln l9l l, commencement exercises were held for the first graduates-a class of seven. ln l9Ol, the well educated boy and girl had taken advantage of the newly revised curriculum, which now included domestic science lhome eco- nomicsl, manual training, music, and art. A frame building behind the Baptist Church was rented for use as a gym. In l9lO, the County Court designated that this district should hereafter be called, The City of Maplewood School District. The following year, the first publication was issued-a monthly maga- zine, The Bleu-Blanc lBlue and Whitel , better known to us as, The Chip. The year l9l6 saw the new high school ground at Sutton and Lyndover purchased. The bond issue required for this move also provided that an auditorium and a 5O'x5O' gymnasium should be built. Five years later another bond issue provided for the second unit of the High School. This included a 6O'x9O' gym, grading and fencing ground, and building bleacher seats. Foot- ball was started. ln l924, the first Annual was published. Our school population exceeded the accommodations furnished by the school on Sutton, and a new bond issue was passed providing for the purchase of the present site. ln l925, the ground was broken at 7539 Manchester, and a great school, future alma mater of thousands, was begun. That year the Maplewood School District employed 73 teachers, as compared with l3l ten years later. The next year a bond issue was approved, and the second unit of lContinued on Page 99l MAPLE LEAVES 9 3 8 Eighty-Five SCHOOL HIGH LIGHTS MOST POPULAR BEST DISPOSITION BEST ALL-ROUND MOST PERSONALITY BEST SPORT MOST DIGNIFIED MOST INDIFFERENT WITTIEST MOST ATHLETIC MOST STYLISH MOST ARTISTIC NEATEST SWEETEST MOST DEVILISH MOST LOVESICK BIGGEST FLIRT BEST DANCER HATES OPPOSITE SEX THE LAZIEST CLEVEREST MOST ATTRACTIVE BREEZIEST PEPPIEST FRIENDLIEST BEST SINGER NOISIEST PRETTIEST BRUNETTES NICEST COUPLE MOST INTELLIGENT MOST INDUSTRIOUS BEST SPELLERS THE CHEMIST QUIETEST MOST SOCIABLE FLIGHTIEST MOST RECKLESS DRIVER MOST SENTIMENTAL BEST TYPING STUDENT BEST SHORTHAND STUDENTS PRETTI EST BLON DES PRETTI EST RED- HEADS GIRL Virginia K.

To be exact, I suppose I am the most intellectual person up here. If it weren't for me, this high school would be unheard of. Unheard of reminds me of the sports up here. Our boys' teams are terrible and the girls are worse, if such a thing be possible. Naturally, the only thing we need is someone like me to pep up things. I could run all the rest of these Maplewood saps into a dark corner with my athletic ability. Speaking of ability, have you heard of the operetta or seen the senior play? The operetta was lousy and the senior play was a wash out. The only reason the senior play drew a crowd was my being there. And our chumps actually clapped during the performance. One would think they would know better than to urge our faltering amateurs onl Have you seen the senior rings? They're terrible! But they just fit that snooty class-the seniors I mean. They go around in the sky and then there's the smell, too, if you get what I mean. I'd be willing to wager that those very bums are the instigators of that student activity stuff. Who ever heard of Maplewood-Richmond Heights giv- ing something for nothing? However, some teachers are considerate. I overheard one say he'd gladly pay to get me out of here. Speaking of something for nothing reminds me of the so-called Honor Society. They haven't asked me to join, but I wouldn't think of lowering myself to their plane! I'm a great guy, the other day I joined the Verse-Speaking Choir and if it weren't for me, it would be the worst speaking choir instead of verse, but I'm getting used to saving these unearthly clubs. I'm so helpful. Helpful! That makes me think of how I'm always helping the struggling teachers when they're stuck trying to explain something to a class of ignoramuses that park their bodies up here for a minimum of four years. About the only thing I have not dabbled in at school is the band and orchestra-strange they haven't encouraged me? But of course you haven't heard of them because of that fact, except maybe you've heard them. I assure you it isn't a mine blast when they play- curse the luck. You know, it's the strangest thing, none of the student body seems to like me-the faculty, ugh! I suppose they know my su- periority to them is well-founded, and I have surmised that it gives them an inferiority complex. The other day they threatened to expel me Ia prank no doubtl. Being optimistic, I don't even agree with Emerson IWho does?I. He says a man has few friends, I say he has none. There that shows youl Ya! Ya!

Jenkins I I am inscribing this poetry to my Alma Mater. I was going to do it last week, but I put it off till later. That seems to be my trouble. When I have something to do, I put it off until it grows to double Its original size And I decide not to do it anyway which is more than enough proof that I'm wise To the dodges of passing the buck Although I'd rather have someone pass me the duck At Thanksgiving or Christmas. And speaking of nothing, I wonder how an Isthmus ever Got to be called that. And what is the connection between eclair and eclat. And speaking of eclairs and other gooey Stuff, I often wonder why in thunder people Iet me write such hooey. But I feel the urge in the vernal Equinox-that's spring to you-and turn out reams of this infernal Poetry, the style of which I got from a bishop Whose ecclesiastical robes would swish up And down when he walked up the stair. ll didn't really need that line, but the rhyme was so original that l thought I'd try a pair.l I really don't think I can imitate Nash So l'll truck on down with this metrical trash. You really don't need the touch of a master Just start it rolling and it comes along faster Than Maplewood students leave a class When a bell rings for them to pass. And now that I'm closing, don't think that I'm hammy I did it with my little hatchet all for my old alma mammy. I guess I'll have to end this line duly Withlgrace and sign off-Yours truly. Hush-'tis the lullaby, time is singing Hush, and heed not for all things pass.

At last the beautiful building was finished, and in l93l the doors were opened to pupils from the tenth to twelfth grades. They num- bered about ZOO. When the school was completed, it had 33 rooms, and a capacity of IZ33. For quite some time the School District of Maplewood has been com- posed of 2 flourishing well-develop- ed municipalities, namely Richmond Heights and Maplewood, and in the year l937, the voters changed the name of the school to, The Maple- wood-Richmond H e i g h t s High School, and it is indeed a name of which to be proud. For, after 7l years of progress, that little one- room school house has been suc- ceeded by seven grade schools, one Junior High, and one Senior High, And as the school year, '37-'38 passes on, we find that the first graduating class has been multiplied by 3l, the Senior High pupils alone number IZOO, and pupils are offered 40 subjects. This year's graduating class offers thanks to those who made this pro- gress so rapid that they might be privileged to enjoy all the things that make high school days unfor- gettable. -Rosalind Harrison UNIVERSITY EDUCATION for BUSINESS The School of Commerce and Finance St Louis University offers complete university courses in all important bus: ness and allied fields In the Day Division high school gradu ates have access to five distinct four year courses leading to a Bachelor s degree In the Evening Division complete courses leading to a Certificate and many special courses are available to properly qualified young men and women Complete Catalog Mailed on Request O THE SCHOOL OF COMMERCE AND FINANCE ST.
