We will cease to wonder, however, when we realize that the youth of today are not merely pursuing an educationg they are being molded into men and women with Well-rounded personalities. More important, they are becoming fitted for the task of leading a post-War world through its myriad trials and troubles. In the pages of this, the 1943 volume of The Olympian, you will catch ia glimpse of how the students and teachers of one American high school live in the world of today and endeavor to prepare for the world of tomorrow-the World of freedom and democracy universal. We faithfully trust that you will get from our yearbook an enjoyment akin to that which we have experienced in preparing it. MARIETTA, School of Glory. I ,ix l 4 QS JANET MCGARITY DEDICATICN To Miss Janet McGa1'ity, able instructor of home economics, for her unceasing efforts toward the expansion and de- velopment of that department, her sympathetic understand- ing and wise council, her untiring patience, and her sin- cere friendship, we, the class of 1943, Wish to express our real appreciation through the dedication of this Olympian , Le The students, faculty, and Board of Erluczxtion 4-muy xx gala ovuut :nt the Junim'-Senior lmunquet. i U Mr. Shulor Antley, superintenflent, and Mr. E. D. Covingto 1-incipal Mr. Shuler Antley, recently elected superintendent of the Marietta schools, heads the list of those who keep us on the straight and narrow path. He has always shown a sincere interest in all the students, and stands ready at any time to listen to their proibleims and to help solve them. The powers behind the school are the members of the Board of Education. They are Judge J. H. Hawkins, Mr. Guy H. Northcutt, Mr. Max Pitftard, Mr. Ewell Hope, Mr. Tom Mitchell, and Dr. Ralph Fowler. These members gov- ern all activities connected with the school system. Members of the board are elected by the City Council for a terfm of six years. Regular meetings are held on the second Thursday of each month. The Board secures and maintains adequate buildings and equipment, handles all school finances, prescribes courses of study, and has complete jurisdiction over the faculty. Mr. E. D. Covington was recently elected principal. During his first year as principal, he has been the guiding' light of our high school careers and a most definite inspiration for our future.

Miss Davis received her AB. at the University of Georgia. COMMERCIAL SUBJECTS The Commercial Department is ruled by the iron hands of Miss Mary Ellen Smith and Miss Martha McCrary, who teach typing, shorthand, and bookkeeping. They are turning out stenographers for the modern business world at an outstanding rate of speed. Miss Smith is a grad- uate of Georgia State Teachers College, and Miss Upper left: Miss Sanders takes time out from checking Pitchfork copy. Upper right: Give us a big smile, Miss Nolen.

MATHEMATICS The mathematics courses are handled CJD- albly by two new instructors, Miss Lucille Shehan and Miss Willie Hunter. The courses offered are first and second year algebra, plane geometry, trigonometry, business arith- metic, and advanced algebra. Miss Shehan, who teaches fi1'st and second year algebra and business arithmetic, is well qualified. She re- received her A.B. from Asbury College in Wilmington, Kentucky, her M.A. from Peabody, and her B.S. in Library Science from Peaibody. Miss Hunter, who teaches plane geometry, trigonometry, and advanced algebra, received her A.B. from Randolph-Macon at Lynchburg, Virginia, and her M.A. from Columbia Uni- versity. PRE-FLIGHT A new subject offered to students at Mari- etta High is Pre-Flight Training. It was re- ceived enthusiastically and has proved to 'be of great benefit to those who took it. The instructor in this course is Mr. Darden Rumlble, who attended Emory University and the Uni- versity of Georgia. He received his A.B. from the University. Mr. Rumble is also director of the Marietta High School Band. MUSIC The students who are in the glee clubs are the only ones who were offered music in Mari- etta High School. The Girls' Glee Club, com- posed this year of about sixty girls, has done excellent work. The Boys' Glee Club is much smaller in number, but what it lacks in quan- tity it makes up- in quality. There are some exceptionally good voices in both the Boys' Glee C.ub and the Girls' Glee Club. The clubs have given several excellent programs and have entertained the student body in chaipel a number of times. The director of both glee clubs is Miss Marjorie Upshaw. She received her ILM. from Bessie Tift College and her AB. Coach Hollis holds up the gym door. X . -1 Upper: Miss McGarity absorbing 'I'odd's Clothes for Girls .

She also attend- ed Georgia University, Emory University, South- western Seminary, and Columbia University. HOME ECONOMICS The Home Economics Department is under the very able supervision of Miss Janet Mc- Garity. Although the course is designed for girls, in recent years several boys have been interested in the art of home-making and have chosen home economics as an elective course. The courses for girls include sewing, foods, etiquette, proper dress, personality, and such 55 I 11:5 S-las. ,,................ mix on nun igat 1 n L1 fn xs pretty pictures on thi- lnmrnl for hm' fuvoritt- sunl.-mt, other subjects as Miss McGarity and the stu- dents feel would be of benefit. Miss McGarity received her degree from the University of Georgia. There were two student teachers in the Home I-Iconomics Department this year, who, besides being of invaluable assistance to Miss Mctlarity, were great tav- orites with the students. PHYSICAL EDUCATION The physical education classes are conduct- ed by Coach Jodie Hollis, who also coaches the high school's athletic teams. Students play several indoor games, including basketball, ring tennis, fencing, and volleyball, and in warm weather, they are instructed in swim- ming, archery, baseball, and other outdrmr sports.

These are general science, for freshmeng biology, for sophomoresg chemistry, for juniorsg and physics, for sen- iors. The Scientific Course is one of the best offered in school. The work includes experi- mentation in well-equipped laboratories, be- side the regular class discussions. Mrs. J. Roy Callison teaches general science and bi- olcgy. She is a graduate of the Georgia State College for WVomen, where she received her degree of 13.S. in Education.

S. the members of our class will receive their diplomas and say good-bye to familiar faces and familiar places. To most of us it seemed that the fall of 1939 would never arrive. At last the great day came, and we were greeted royally. We fanned the seniors through the heat of late sumimerg we were given the pleasure of removing the rocks from the football fieldg and we were honored with many of the other special freshman privileges. We soon became a real part of the school. We developed crushes on upper-classmeng We supported the athletic teams rapidlyg we learned how to pass notes in class witnoug being caughtg we joined clubsg we took physical education for the first timeg and we were flattered when Coach called us Mr. or Miss . Each home room elected its officersg and when the Valentine Ball rolled around, we selected Betty Baskin as our class queen. Some of us were honored with bids to the Junior- Senior and Senior dances. Then came graduation, when We sighed heart-ibrokenly, School just can't go on Without the seniors. In spite of our doubts school did open the next September, and life Went on. We were insulted because the freshmen did not look up to us in a manner we considered proper. We began to master the art of snoozing in study hall. 'Some of us ibegan the mystic study of Latin. We struggled through sophomore algebra. Our class presidents were Jodie Hollis, Joe Hamby, and Buddy Sanger. We were repre- sented in the orchestra by Cammie McIntyre and Ray Reece. Betty Baskin was again chosen the class queen. i4 5 During our junior year we became more blase and worldly-wise. We acecpted our re- sponsibilities with pride and diligence. Many of us became officers of the school organiza- tions. Representing our class in the newly organized student council were Frances Harris, secretaryg Sonny Jervey, vice-president, Theresa Kemp, Bill Whitworth, and Fred Bent- ley, representatives. We entered into every possible activity. We sold magazines to help raise money for our lbanquet and dance. Joe Hamlby was elected to lead us in our efforts. At the Valentine Ball our candidate for queen was again Betty Baskin. We attended the Georgia Scholastic Press Association Convention in Athens that spring. There we got ideas for the next year when we would be given the responsibility and fun of editing the school publications. As hosts, we enjoyed the Junior-Senior Banquet immensely. We struggled over our toasts with more sincerity than oration. Just before the close of school Bootsie Maddox was elect- ed editor-in-chief of The Olympiang Theresa Kemp was named to head The Pitchfork staff. We were entertained at the senior dance, after weeping another senior class through gradu- ationg and another year ended. Finally our senior year began. We elected Joe Hamby as class president again. Football season drew to a close. We received our class rings. With much enthusiasm we chose our graduation invitations. Christmas came and went. Then came our Valentine Ball, with Norma Jane Howell as our class queen. As spring came on, we turned joyfully to the study of the American poets. We had our class meetings to make decisions about our long-looked-forward-to graduation. VVork was begun on the senior play. The annual began to take shape at last. Then came the Junior-Senior again. We were charmingly entertained by the juniors, with Jimmy Carmichael as toastmaster. The dance following was an unrivaled success. The senior play was delightfully hysterical. Mrs. Bonner did her job well and patiently. VVe were well-pleased with the work of all of the members of the cast. Baccalaureate sermon was the next big event. Dr. George Brown delivered an uplifting message in the Recreation Center, with music furnished by the glee club. Then, of course, graduation night, a swift blur of memories-marching down the aisle in Cap and gOWH, S1391-3CheS by the honor graduates,having our names called, receiving our di- plomas, tossing the tassel to the post-graduate side, and turning our rings. And so we leave our Alma Mater to go on our various paths of life. Some of us will com- plete our educations in college, others of us will learn in the school of practical experience. As we leave, we wish to thank those who have made our stay here so pleasant-our board of education, our faculty, and our friends. lfront row: .lou Hamby. president, and Martha Griggs, secretary.

Although a little timid, gawky, and unpoised at first, by the end of that year they were well into the spirit of the school. Many of them went out for athletics. One of the girls, Gloria Houston, was ia basketball prodigy. Several of the others showed promise. Betty Jo Crumrine, Ralph Pierce, and Edna Spence, class presidents, led their class in a successful year. This same year the class furnished one of our football heroes-Charles Edwards. Scrappy, as he is familiarly called, was . also a baseball star, as was Bully', Fields. Furthermore, Joe Abbott did an outstanding job of managing the team. Betty Jo Crumrine was a valuable student government member, serving as treasurer of that organization. Jack Davis, Stella Bar- ber, and Allen Cairnes were also members of the Student Council. During the past year our juniors have made a remarkable record. Bobby Keith, Dan Worley, Wayne Donald, Lucia Seifrit, Jean Woolbright, Katherine Wilson, Betty Jo Crumrine, Jack Davis, Dick Murray, Ralph Fowler, Allen Cairnes, Fred Tyson, Kather- ine Young, and Jean Lindsey have all held important positions on the Pitchfork staff. Ralph Fowler has been chosen editor of this publication for next year.

Fred Hamby and Harwell Stovall also starred in baseball. Scrappy and Bully probably Would have been diamond stars also, but their Uncle Sam put them to work in khaki a few months before the season opened.. Three of our cheerleaders this year were juniors. They were Lucia Seifret, Stella Barber, and Betty Jo Crumrine. Lucia was also chosen the class queen for this year. Furthermore, Ralph Fowler has been a lead- er in the Hi-Y this year. Allen Cairnes was vice-president of Stu- dent Council, and Jack Davis was secretary. Also serving in this organization from the junior class were Joe Abbott, Fred Tyson, and Betty Jo Crumrine. In the music department the band and glee club both have a large number of junior members. They are apparently good musicians, too. The positions of the girls and boys men- tioned are just examples of the good Work the juniors have done since they entered high school. They are well represented in the sehool's scholarship, as well as in its extra-curricular activities. Goat Wallace, Frocldir Myers. Ralph Fowler, Red Suhr, Iohnnin Davenport. Jim Willis.

They act more sophisticated than the seniors them- selves. The freshman of last year, who had the most school spirit and vim, vigor, and vitality, has changed into a sophisticate who attends all school functions and enters into everything with spirit. By this year they have really made a place for themselves in the hearts of students and faculty alike. They no longer get lost in the hall or tremble when Mr. Covington speaks to them. They hold important places in all phases of school activities--athletics, social and scholastic. One of their group, Donnie Jo Terry, is treasurer of Student Council. The representatives are Jane Webb, Miriam Goodwin, and Mary Edwards. The sophomore class officers, who did an excellent job of guiding the affairs of the class during the year, are Donnie Jo Terry, l Mary Edwards, Warren Quarles, and Woofie Fields. The class furnished much valuaible ma- terial for the athletic teams-Loyd Chand- ler, Woofie Fields, and Mary Edwards-to mention only a few. One of the members of the class, Mildred Black, displayed her dramatic talent in the production, The Antics of Andrewf, put on during the fall. The sophomores had one of the biggest thrills of the year when their class queen, Annie Laurie Thomas, was elected queen of the Valentine Ball, given annually for the benefit of The Olympian. Even when they were freshmen, this class made their mark, led by the class officers -Warren Quarles, Jane Webb, Mildred Black, and Annie Laurie Thomas. Their representatives to the Student Coun- cil that year were Jane Webb, Donnie Jo Terry, and Miriam Goodwin. ident: Mary Edwards. president, and Donnie Jo This year also, they had representation on Terry, lsecretary, after taking semester exams.

A group of the girls entertained at the Junior-Senior Banquet by singing sev- eral popular songs. The singing was thor- oughly enjoyed by all and was one of the attractions of the program. The nearness of their approach to the ranks of junior was brought home to them by the announcement of the publication staffs, with many of their names on the lists. Another important event in their lives was when the social clubs-Lucky 13 and P.S.- elected their members and included several of the juniors-to-be. No longer do they followg now they lead. They set an example of enthusiasm, assur- ance, eagerness, natural zest, and school spirit that is worthy of commendation. Their willingness, their ideas and their notions, their interests and their opinions all roll to- gether to form a completely essential part of Marietta High School. The sophomore is willing and eager to please and deserves much credit. Let it bc said in his praise that although he does not always win the highest honors or make thc team, he is ever willing to try. To this class we extend our hearty thanks for their boundless pep and interest. Their spirit is a challenge to the whole student bodyg may they continue to be conscientious leaders throughout the remainder of their days at Marietta High School. vhinv Mavvhl-ws. Frances Wade.

Row 2: Bobby Underwood, James Fisher, It is amazing to watch the change which takes place in a freshman between September and May. If you will stop for a moment and remember one particular member of the freshman class as he was when he or she entered high school, and compare that mental picture with the same person today, you will probably be amazed. Although you hadnit noticed it because it has been gradual, the gawky, timid, cocky little junior high product you remember in September has blossomed into a well-poised, friendly, good-looking, typical high school boy or girl. Another thing that is always remarkable about freshmen is their school spirit. They are invariably thrilled beyond words at the thought of actually 'being in high school Calthough they usually try to act VSYY HCY1Ch211l2lDf 2llOUUt iii- They i'3ll l0Ud9S'E at football and basketball gamesg they read The Pitchfork from front to backg they get more l autographs than would seem possible in one annual. In short the freshmen have more . general enthusiasm and ardor than the mem- bers of any other class. However, in some respects our freshmen this year are different from any before them. One usually thinks of a freshman as a be- wildered, timid little soul who goes around bowing down to seniors and biting to all the practical jokes the sophomores play on him. But not these freshmen! They couldn't be tricked. The first day they came to high school they were a part of it. Instead of watching goggle-eyed While the upper-class- men took their places on the athletic teams, as cheerleaders, managers, and officers, the freshmen entered in the competition, and, in many cases, were victorious over their older rivals. . Two of them, Barbara Blair and Jean Randall, were elected cheerleaders Qand p were considered our bestl.

They hard- ly even dared to speak to one. But again the freshmen of '43 defied tradition. They immediately made friends with sophomores, juniors and seniors alike. They began ex- changing notes with the girls and boys in the upper classes, and it Wasn't many months before they were even dating those same boys and girls Ca thing almost unheard of when We seniors were freshmenl. The class officers they chose were Pat Caldwell, presidentg Joyce Sue Welchell, vice-presidentg Dot Turner, secretary, and Dot Mitchell, treasurer. Vivacious Pat Cald- well was elected Miss Freshman Class. Representing the freshmen on Student Council were Buddy Shell, Sally Bishop, and Fred Davidson. All the freshmen have entered into all phases of school life. They are as good stu- dents as any may desireg they are valuable members of the clubs to which they belongg they are everybody's friends at M.H.S. I should like to take this opportunity as a senior to congratulate the freshmen for their friendliness, enthusiasm, cooperation, sportsmanship, and scholarship which have meant so much during the past year. May they have all in high school and in life which they deserve, and may all their future years be as successful as this p-ast one.

The staff is headed by an Editor-in-Chief, who prob- ably makes more bitter enemies and is on the verge of more my! nervous break-downs than any- body else in school. Next in rank, or rather next in Work, come the advertising managers-of whom there are four. They are at first asked, then pleaded with, and finally threatenedg but they get Editor-in-chief the ads, though at times it looks doulbtful. There are three business managers, who collect money during the various campaigns. The three sports editors do the Write-ups for the football, basketball, and baseball sections. After the various write-ups are completed, the copy editors type them in preparation for the printers. The art editors and photography editors do as their titles imply. This year's staff regretted the leaving of Mr. R. A. Tipton, the former faculty adviser, who is now in the U. S. Army. His position was filled by Mrs. Francis W. Bonner. Mr. E. D. Covington and Mr. Shuler Antley, principal and superintendent, respectively, have also been of invaluable assistance.

THE PITCI-IFCDIQK THE PITCHFORK, the official organ of Marietta High School, is published monthly by a staff composed of juniors and seniors including editor-in-chief, associate editor, business manager, and many other staff heads. The staff is organized around the editor-in- Editm--in-chief chief, who supervises all the gathering of news, sees that cop-y is carried to the printer, proof- reads copy, makes up the dummy, and finally checks the finished product. The financial matters of the paper are looked after by the business manager, with the help of the ad- vertising staff. The alumni editors, feature editors, society editors, news editors, and literary editors are all directly under the editor-in-chiefg the ad- vertising managers are under the business man- ager. Each of these forms an important part of the staff and contributes greatly to its efficiency. The staff of this year was very sorry to lose its faculty adviser, Mr. J. R. Callison, when he was called into the service of his country, but gained a friend and helper in the new adviser, THERESA KEMP Miss Ruth Sanders. , THE PITCHFORK has been published with a X tri-fold purpose in mind-to inform by means of complete news coverage, to entertain by means of feature stories, and to inspire by means of a constructive editorial policy. 47 STUDENT JCDVERNMENT Theresa Kemp, President: Donnie Jn Terry, Treas- ure-rg Allen Cairncs. Vice-President, and Jack Davis, Secretary, lock for four-leaf clovcrs in the football field. The purpose of the Student Council, as defined by the Constitution, is to raise and maintain the standards of the school, foster school spirit, bind the faculty and student body more closely, and develop leadership and initiativef' The Council does no disciplinary Work but attempts to govern only in the sense of leading and pointing out the right way. The officers of the Council consist of a president, who is a seniorg a vice-president, who is a juniorg a secretary. who is also a junior, and a treasurer, who is a sophomore. Three representatives a1'e elected by each of the classes. The officers are nominated by the faculty and Voted on by the students at the end of the term before which they are to take office. The installation of officers is usually held the year they are elected so that they can be ready to take over duties at the first of the next year. The president is required to make an average of B , and everyone on the Council is required to be passing each subject. The president of Student Council presides in all chapel programs and council meetings. A useful auxiliary to the Council is the hall monitors. The vice-president of the Council is captain of monitors. The monitors are installed on the first day of each school year and take office immediately. They are helpful and have practically rid the hall of congestion. Row 1: Buddy Shell, Miriam Goodwin, Jane VVL-bb. Sally Bishop, Theresa Kemp. Donnie Jo Terry. Betty Jo Crumrine. Allen Cairnes.

The Hi-Y Club was reorganized at Marietta High School three years ago, through the in- terest of those boys who were earnestly concernedxwith the betterment of our school, The boys in this club, under the watchful and ever-faithful guidance of Mr. E. D. Covington, have really done their part, both for the school and for the war effort. They have worked Whole-heartedly and untiringly toward improving their Alma Mater in every way possible. themselves, and in their fellow students, a high moral character. They have pledged themselves to Chris- tianity and Democracy, the two watch- Words of modern America, and through their efforts, each student is urged to share equally his obligations toward civic citizenship. Every day, some evidence is shown of the results of their good work. Their high standards of sportsmanship and spiritual character have tended to overcome the undesirable forces With which we have come into daily contact. These boys are the future citizens and civic leaders of America and should be recognized and acclaimed as such.

Vice- President Jean Alexander is nut in the picture. This year the Shorthand Club and the Typing Club have been combined to form one club, the Commercial Club. Though the organization is a comparatively small one, it has proved very beneficial to those students who are really interested in commercial subjects and who would like to become better acquainted with the ways of the business world. The club meets every other Friday morning, with Miss Martha McCrary as faculty adviser. The club is of invaluable aid to those students who are planning to enter into the busi- ness world after graduating from high school. Members of this club are given an excellent opportunity to become well-acquainted with the profession or business that they intend to follow upon leaving high school. They learn something about the various vocations, such as the advantages, requirements, disadvantages, and chances of promotion. They learn how to face the customs, habits, and demands of the modern business world. They learn what to consider essential in a job, what kind of job they would like to have, and what qualifica- tions they should possess to be successful in their chosen profession. The activities of the club resemble, in a way, the activities of the vocational guidance course of the high school. What the club lacks in size is made up for by the interest of the group and by the eagerness of its members to make their organization the most effective club on the campus. The programs of the club are made more interesting by talks made by townspeople prom- inent in the business world who are Willing and eager to come and give advice to the students.

The Lucky 13 Club, girls' social organization, has proved the source of much enjoyment and entertainment for the social set of the high school, The club, as its name implies, is composed of thirteen girls, chosen from the junior 'and senior classes. This year there are seven seniors and six juniors. The club is, for the most part, a social one with no particular obje-ctive other than the fun and happiness of the members. Meetings are held every two Weeks at the homes of the members and after the business meeting is adjourned, refreshments are served. The members enjoy many social functions during the year. These affairs are usually chaperoned by the member's parents and the faculty advisors ofthe club. The faculty advisors this year are Miss Janet McGarity and M1's. Francis W. Bonner. This year, instead of entertaining at the usual Thanksgiving Dance, the members of the Lucky 13 Club and their dates, together with the members of the P. S. Club and their dates, enjoyed going to Atlanta to see the annual battle between the Georgia Tech Baby Jackets and the University of Georgia Bull Pups.

Club, composed this year of sixteen girls chosen from the junior and senior classes, has been a source of fun and entertainment for all concerned. The idea foremost in the minds of the members is to enjoy themselves and to see that other people do the same. The significance of the letters forming the name of the club is a deep, dark secret known only to the members of the club. This year it was a bigger secret than ever before because not even the members knew what the letters meant. Informal meetings are held semi-monthly at the homes of the various members, and a social hour is enjoyed after the business meeting has been profperly disposed of. The faculty advisors this year are Miss Martha McCrary, Mr. Alvin Chandler, and Mr. Har- well Stovall. The members of the club have enjoyed many social activities this year. Especially en- joyable was the Tech Freshman-Georgia Freshman annual football clash at Grant Field, which the P. S. members and their dates attended with the Lucky 13 Club members and their dates. The trip, like other club activ'ties, was characterized by general hilarity and frivolity on the part of the members. I 4 l Row l: Diana Fulchcr. Katherine Wilson.

The members of the club are very active, striving always to better the school and heighten the spirit of loyal- ty. During their meetings they discuss possible improvements and develop- ments for Marietta High School and work toward the fulfillment of their plans. Jodie Hollis, coach of Marietta High School's football team, boys' basketball team, and baseball team, is faculty ad- viser for the club. The club meets every two weeks at the Brumby Decre- ation Center. Since the club is only an honorary club, meetings are held mainly to collect money for The Olympian picture and to admit any new members into the club. Often, social functions are held by the club, which always prove to be fun for all con- cerned. Members of the M Club have a special privilege, too: that is, any member may attend any of the ban- quets given for the various athletic teams, even though he isn't out for that particular sport.

Despite the fact that it is one of the newest clubs in school, its members have accomplished as much as any other club in high school. The meetings, which are held semi-monthly with Miss Clara Nolen as faculty adviser, are always interesting to the members, Several exceptionally good programs have been given this yearg from these the members learned of the organization and founders of Red Cross and what different Red Cross Chapters all over the world are doing. They have enjoyed talks by several distinguished speakers, including Mrs. K. W. Brittain and Mrs. Mattson, Junior Red Cross director for the Southeastern section. Members of the club were hostesses at a tea given in the Home Economics Department for Mrs. Mattson and for all the Red Cross Chapters in Cobb County. The Junior Red Cross sponsored the Victory Book Campaign in high school and made it an overwhelming success by collecting 526 books. The members also aided in the Red Cross membership drive and in the Second War Loan Drive. They have made slippers, hot pads, writing folders, and ash trays for soldiers in hospitals, and, as one of their projects, they wrote letters to soldiers. The members plan to continue their work and to become even more active during the sum- mer. They have discussed plans for the coming year and hope to build a clubhouse to use in the summer.

This year the members of the Dramatics Club were sorry to lose to Uncle Sam their faculty adviser and favorite, Mr. Francis Bonner. However, they were indeed fortunate in having his wife, Mrs. Bonner, take his place. Through her interest, the Dramatics Club is still one of the most popular and most active in high school. Members of the club are chosen on the basis of their ability and interest in dramatics, The club had a fairly large membership this year. Meetings are held every two weeks, and there have been several entertaining programs. Different members of the club have given interesting reports on several topics, including dramatic technique, stage settings, and stage make-ups. Members have also read several one-act plays during the meetings. One of the members, Freddie Trezevant, wrote a one-act play adapted from the story, The Monkey's Paw. The play was read at one of the meetings, and parts were cast from mem- bers of the club. Freddie, who seems to be a veritable Noel Coward, not only wrote the play, but also directed it, acted in it, and designed the settings. Previous years have found the club's stage lacking in scenery, but recently enough new equipment has been purchased to enable the members to put on some first-class productions.

ASTRQIXIOIVW CLUB One of the clubs making its first appearance at Marietta High School this year is the Astronomy Club, under the able supervision of Miss Clara Nolen. The club is a very small one in membership, but this fact doesn't hinder the members in achieving their goals. The club meets every two Weeks and has had several interesting programs this year. Beside having interesting talks on astronomy, the club has seen several moving pictures showing the planets and the different phases of the moon and sun. The members have successfully mastered the Winter and spring constellations and plan to learn the summer and fall ones. In fact, it is their desire to learn to recognize and call by name all constellations visible to the naked eye. The members of the club have made a detailed study of all the plane-ts and have learned to tell directions by the stars. They have also made a study of the seasons and have learned several interesting facts including what forms the seasons, what causes an eclipse of the sun and the moon, and what makes it hot and cold. They plan to have night meetings later and to make trips to Bert Adams' Camp and to Emory University to view the heavenly bodies through a telescope. Phillip' Heck.

COllOl'Tl This year, students interested in Home Eco- nomics were organized into one large club. Herctofore there have been separate clubs for the upper classmen and the underclassmen, but it was decided that a combination of the two would be beneficial to both groups. The faculty adviser for the club is Miss Janet McGarity, Home Economics lnstructor for the school. Under her supervision the club members undertook several very beneficial projects during the year. The girls are learning to make themselves attractive and to distinguish themselves as individuals. They have entered into a wide range of study. They have not only discussed the needs and responsi- bilities of the home, but they have also investigated all phases of personality improvement. The girls have become interested in learning about the finer things of life around the home, such as color harmony, home planning, child care, sewing, cooking, selection of clothes, and other things that would contribute toward the development of a fine, well-rounded, and popular girl. They have done much to bring better manners to our student body by setting a sterling example in the cafeteria, in the hal, on the campus, and in the classroom. This year each girl is trying to become a specialist as well as an individualist. The girls have a wide range of interests, and the topics are taken up one by one. These are discussed, and the problems are ironed out. To help them in their panning, guest speakers are often called in to discuss the girls' problems. The programs are planned by a committee chosen by the president, with the vice-president serving as chairman. The club meets bi-weekly during school in the Home Economics Laboratory. The members are: Betty Copeland, Leta Webb, Myrtie Lee Bettis, Geneva Frasier, Helen Ledsinger, Jane Webb, Annie Laurie Thomas, Betty Jo Merritt, Barbara Clark, Betty Jean Orr, Jane Smith, Sally Bishop, Betty Jo Marler, Martha Griggs, Mary Meech, Dorothy Holbrook, Mary Jo Cheek, Caroline Little, Alice Whitlock, Zettie Clowdis, Pat Reed, Clara Welch, Isabel Harris, Juanita LeCroy, June Cornett, Annette Bunyan, Elsie Mitchell, Ruth Hagood, Norma Jane Howell, Betty Brown, Bobby Shaw, Buddy Shell, Ed Bogie, Lewis Ledsinger, Greer Edwards, Billy Pettyjohn, and Henry Williams. 58 Tubby Barnett, President 3 Mary Edwards, Secretary: Jane Webb, Secretary, and Junior Wilson, President, compare their two Folk Dance Clubs. Folk Dance Club One of the new clubs at Marietta High School this year is the Folk Dance Club. Although this is its first year of activity, it has already become perhaps the most popular club among the stu- dents. There is no objective of the club except to provide fun and enjoyment for its members. The'Folk Dance Club outnumbers any other club in the school in membership, having a total of seventy members. Because of such a large membership, the club was forced to separate into two individual clubs with separate sets of offi- cers for each club. The clubs meet on alternate Friday mornings in the Brumby Recreation Center. Mrs. Roy Callison is faculty adviser for both clubs. It is largely through her interest in the club that it has developed into such a popular organization. Besides providing fun and enjoyment for all its members, the club develops poise and coordi- nation through the execution of the various dances. Through learning the dances of foreign countries, the members gain an understanding of the personality and habits of people of other countries. Only the dances of the allied countries are being studied by the club. By learning the native dances of a country, students acquire a knowledge of the history of the country, of the types of people in the country, and of the life they lead. Included in dances they have studied are the Highland Fling, the Rhumba, the Con- ga, the Virginia Reel, and Grand Marches. The members include: Thomas Beck, Leta Webb, Edward Bogle, June Cornett, George Hardeman, Caroline Spence, Lewis Ledsinger, Donnie Jo Terry, Everett McBrayer, Dolores Burgess, Dudley Pearson, Joyce Durham, Bill Pettyjohn, Helen Ledsinger, Pierce Rice, Annie Laurie Thomas, Henry Williams, Jane Webb, Howard Beitman, Caroline Little, Jimmy Smith, Pat Reed, Harris Barnes, Barbara Harbin, Wilce Frazier, Martha McLarty, Vennard Hann, Frances Chalker, Ernest Pylant, Pat Caldwell, Bobby Morgan, Sally Bishop, Fred Bentley, Jane Smith, Ralph Chambers, Betty Jo Marler, Joe Barnett, Harriet Brawner, Micky McNeel, Annelle Kemp, Happy McNeel, Marilyn Gunter, Joe Hamiby, Ruth Lindley, Greer Edwards, Annette Runyan, Bob Renshaw, Charlotte Pratt, Martha Jean Nelson, Edna Spence, Simena Cutis, Linda Roberts, Jean Hames, Gloria Houston, Dorothy Lassiter, Cenora Cantrell, Juanita LeCroy, Carolina Barnes, Mary Jo Cheek, Bonnie Wallace, Coleen Jordan, Betty Jane Jones, Jeanne Haney, Sybil Phillips, Mary Edwards, Emma Jane Frey, Barbara Ingram, Miriam Goodwin, Mary Rohner, and Nadine Cranmer.

Its first public appearance was in the fall at the dedication of the Birney Memorial. Since then it has been greatly in demand, having assisted in religious, patri- otic, and civic programs. The girls collaborated with the Boys' Glee Club and the grammar school music depart- ment at a lovely Christmas program and pageant. During the spring the cluib sang in chapel on various occasions: the club also performed at the U.D.C. Memorial Day program, and for the Kiwanis Club, the local P.-T.A.'s, and for the P.-T.A. at Robert L. Osborne School. One of the loveliest events of the year was a Silver Tea given at school in the old audi- to1'ium, which was decorated with spring flowers and candles so that it lost all of its scho- lastic atmosphere and became a studio for a day. The final appearance of this artistic group was at the baccalaureate service, at which time the club rendered a program of beautiful music.

Since that time, the students have enjoyed many concerts given by the band. The band, as an addition to the school activity program, was accepted enthusiastically by all the students: and many special talents have been discovered through this organization. The band's rep- ertorie includes several military marches, waltzes, and many delightful novelty numbers. The band's director, Mr. Darden Rumble, known intimately as the original 'tMr. Five By Five, has really done wonders during the two years he has 'been at M.H.S. He has devel- op-ed some almost unbelievable talents, starting actually from seratch . Beside this, he is a universal favorite, not only with the band members, but with all students with whom he comes in contact. 6l is g 5' 1 , ,Q V. 1 wqvw flzlefics We'll do all that's in our power, To obtain what's right for you, Doing things that show we're worthy Of our royal White and Blue. .ill we l nliifv QM elm Row 1: Thedus Cordell.

Marietta, in its initial tilt, lost to the Cata- mounts of Dalton on the opponent's field by a score of 14-6. In the Richardson game Marietta chalked up a 13 to 0 triumph. Late in the first quar- ter, Bishop got away on a long run down to the Rams' goal line for the first score. The same play came up again in the third period, as A M Bishop shook loose on the Richardson 30 and T . scampered across. Captain Edwards kicked the point. Marietta was trimmed in its next game, with Cedartown on October 2. Marietta made 6 points in the final period on Bishop's beau- tiful 30-yard run. Griffin next handed the Blue Devils their worst defeat in years. Feeling quite at home on their own turf, the Spiders scored freely in every period to hang up a lop-sided 59 to 0 score. Marietta suffered several injuries dur- ing the game. Next on the Devils home schedule was West Fulton, which proved to be a tough customer. Scoring twice in the first period, the Owls held on to their early lead to drive home a 38 to 18 score. We met Dallas on October 24 on home terri- tory, and although Marietta was victorious by a 12-0 count, the little Dallas team must be credited with giving stiff resistance. Sanger plunged over for the first Marietta touchdown. A fourth period drive was climaxed as Harris Hollis runs for that winning touchdown. 64 S Scrappy throws a long one. passed to Fields in the end zone. The tables were turned the next week, and Marietta lost a 12 to 0 decision to the Hapeville Hornets. Back at Northcutt Stadium on November 6, an inspired Canton team defeated Marietta to the tune of 14-0. Marietta rang down the curtain on the regular season by beating Rockmart 14 to 8, here on November 13. By far the most thrill- ing and best played game of the season, it showed the Blue Devils at the peak of their efficiency. The game began with Rockmart's getting an 8-0 lead on a safety and a touch- down. Then, in the second quarter, Ravan snapped his fingers at Captain Edwards, who promptly tossed him a pass that was good for half a dozen points. To make victory a real- ity, Marietta recovered a Rockmart fumbleg and Edwards plunged over on a reverse. Whv, Bub! Tch! Teh! Bullet Bill getting ready to kick.

GIRLS Bf The Devilettes had a fair season this year, winning six of fourteen scheduled games, The Devilettes played only one game in De- cember. Their opponents were the country gals from Ellijay, and when the smoke cleared from the battle, the scoreboard showed Marietta ahead with a one-point lead, 24-23. The next game pitched Marietta against their ancient rivals, Smyrna. The girls tried hard, but Smyrna was superior and the Devil- ettes lost their first game, 16-32. On the next night the Devilettes played Smyrna again only to lose by the same score, 16-32. The next game was With Hapeville. Marietta played a beautiful game, completely routing and humbling the Hornets to the tune of 24-12. Next on the list was Druid Hills. Leading by only three points at the half, Marietta came out on top by the score of 18-10. Marietta played one of their Worst games ofthe season against the Fulton Red- birds, with Fulton Winning. For the final time, Marietta met Smyrna and once again Marietta could tally only 16 points, however, they held Smyrna to 27 points. The next team Marietta met was Acworth, and the lassies from the North proved to be too much for the hard-fighting Devilettes. The Acworth team never seemed to tire, and the Devilettes couldn't keep up the pace. For the second time, Marietta played the Hapeville Hornetsg and for the second time they were victorious, the score being 22-16.

The year's thriller was the Marietta-Druid Hills game. This time the Devilettes were much improvedg Marietta, after a nip-and- tuck affair, came out with a 33-31 victory. The game with the Canton Greenies ended in disappointment. After leading by two points in the first half, the Devilettes collapsed in the last halfg and Canton came out on the big end of a 32-20 score. For the second time the Acworth team swamped the Devilettes, this time by the score of 25-16. The Devilettes avenged the shellacing they received from Fulton. At end of the game they had Fulton more than doubled as the game ended in a 30-14 victory. In a return game with Canton, the Devilettes were defeated again by the score of 38-26. The Devilettes entered the 7th District tour- nament. In the first game they played McHenry, and the Devilettes came out on top. Calhoun next proved to be superior to the Devilettes and defeated them. Although the Devilettes didn't win all of their games, they lived up to the Marietta spirit of never quitting and of fighting to the end.

The Blue Devils got away to a late practice due to football season. Though they lacked practice when they opened the season on December 11, they looked very good. Playing the big boys from Ellijay, they upset the country boys 20-16. Hollis and F. Hamby were top point-makers with 6 points each. In their first N. G. I. C., the Marietta boys completely humbled and routed the West Fulton Owls 40-16. This game showed that the Blue Devils were well organized, and, though they didn't have any special stars, the team worked together. The next foe for the Blue Devils was the Smyrna team. lt was easy to see that Marietta was too much for the small Smyrna team, and the score ended 62-22 in favor of the Blue Devils. All of the players on the Blue Devils' bench saw action. The game was probably the roughest of the season. The next game knocked Marietta from the rank of the undefeated. The boys seemed to be overconfidentg and when the smoke of battle had cleared, the scoreboard showed Hapeville ahead 27-25. After trailing by 8 points at the end of the third quarter, the Blue Devils rallied in the fourth quarterg but the Hornets sank two free shots which won the game. On the following night the Blue Devils lost another heart- breaker to their ancient rival, the bull, Druid Hills. The Blue Devils had a slight lead at the end of the third quarter, but, in the last period they tired out and lost by a slim two points, 18-16. The Marietta boys got back into the winning column when the Fulton Redbirds came to town. The Devils got into the lead early in the game and stayed ahead all during the game. The final score was Marietta 37, Fulton 14. Lanky Fred Hamby shot 4 more points than the Fulton team combined. The Blue Devils played the Smyrna five for the second time, and once again the Blue Devils were on the big end Coach Jody Hollis tcentc-rj, talks over the com- ' f 1- 'h C .' N ' 1 J , 1 V - ,1 A . . . 'nf' kanllen, Wit 0 Laptam ue Hmm dn of a 36-14 score. Jodie Hollis shot 16 points, two more 70 Chandler and Fields s crumb than the Smyrna team. Next on the list for the Blue Devils was the Acworth five. The Blue Devils were hot the first halfg and as the teams left the court at half time, the Blue Devils we1'e leading 31-8. In the second half a strong Acworth team came back on the court and fought hard, but Marietta came out victorious, 40-27. The Blue Devils met defeat at the hands of Hapeville on Feb. 5. The game was close until late in the fourth quarter when the Hornets started clicking. The final score showed Hape- ville ahead 33-25. The Blue Devils were out for revenge when the Druid Hills boys came to town. It was prob- ably the most exciting game of the yearg and when the battle was over, Marietta was in 1 iv1dS Sh--015 the winning wint- the lead, 24-23. The Devils' next foe was their rivals from Canton, Ga. The Blue Devils fought hard, but the Canton team was always a little ahead. The score, at the end, was 18-17 in favor of the Greenies. For the second time the Blue Devils met Acworth and for the second time Marietta won. This time the score was 34-26. ' Marietta went to Fulton and gave them a 47-14 lashing. The Blue Devils tried to avenge their defeat by Canton, but once again the Canton Greenies de- feated the Blue Devils, the score being 18-16. With the season behind them the Blue Devils entered the 7th district tournament. Their first opponent was the strong Cassville five. The Marietta fans groaned when Cassville chalked up 6 points before the Blue Devils knew what was going on, but they let out a yell as F. Hamby rang up 6 points and tied the game. The Devils started clicking then and won the game 38-21. On the next night they met the one and only Chatsworth team. The Blue Devils Won nine out of fourteen scheduled games.

Tl BASEBALL Captain lid Mitchell and :list-uss the coming game 1 'K Eff: Altvrnato-Captain Iiunlaly Sanger with Decatur. Baseball shifted into the limelight at M.H.S. this spring, as it does every spring. Despite rumors that baseball would be discontinued for the duration, Coaches Hollis and Anderson col- lected a group of boys and practice began. Eight league games were scheduledg and when the smoke cleared, the Blue Devils were settled firmly in second place in the N.G.l.C. League, having Won five games and lost three. The season proved to be the Devils' most suc- cessful in several years. The Blue Devils took the opener from Ful- ton on the Redbirds' home field April 14. Old reliable Ed Mitchell came through in grand style, allowing only five hits and pitching seven innings of shutout ball. In the second inning Quarles scoredg and in the third, Mitch- ell drove in two runs on a long fly. XVe ran wild in the fifth as Bishop, Fields, and Stovall circled the sacks. The Devils once again opened up in the eighth, scoring three more runs. Fulton's only tally came in the eighth on a wild throw. Quarles led Marietta, hit- ting three for five. The year's first home game ended in a vic- tory for Marietta, as Marist came up on the tail end of a 7-3 score. Quarles hurled the Devils to triumph as Fields collected a twa- bagger and two singles for five trips. We scored thrice in the first frame on Quarles' double and again in the fifth when Mitchell clouted a two-baser. Sanger and Barmore scored in the sixth on singles by Fields and Quarles. Marist came across in the fourth and fifth frames on errors and tallied again in the eighth. Row 1: 'iVVitchjv Rohner, Don Smith, Manager: Row 2: Sam Maddox, VVarr1-n Quarles, Ed Mitchell, Joi- llanilvy. J0hnY15' Elder. Row li: Iiamly McNee1, Hurry Lassiter, Harwell Stoxall, Iiill Bishop, Charles Sanger. West Fulton handed us our first setback on April 20, 4-1. Hartsfield pitched no-hit ball for the Owls until Barmore singled in the ninth. West Fulton scored once in the second and three times in the eighth. Our only run came when Mitchell singled, scoring Barmore in the last inning. Although losing, Mitchell pitched well and allowed only one earned run. April 27 saw Marietta playing its best game, swamping Decatur's Bulldogs here 11-0. Elev- en Bulldogs went down swinging under the artful twirling of Ed Mitchell, who also got three for five at the plate. Marietta's big guns belted three opposing pitchers for 15 hits as they scored almost at will against the out- classed visitors. In the eighth, Quarles cleaned the bases with a well-timed double, ending our scoring for the day. We beat Fulton for the second time April 29, this time on home territory. Quarles and Mitchell held the Redbirds to nine hits, while our batters connected for twelve. Fulton gralb- bed an early lead, but the Devils soon found themselves and ran up 13 runs while the Birds could only muster six. Marietta barely put over enough runs to defeat Marist, 15-14. Quarles pitched six innings, but had to be relieved by Mitchell. Buddy Sanger soaked the first pitched ball for a long triple to start the day off right. From then on, the game see-sawed back and forth until We finally emerged victorious. Mitchell polled a long home run, bringing in Fields for the winning tally. We met West Fulton for the second time a Cuacher Hollis and Anderson grin at each other-well, who wouldni ? Upper: Sam Maddox winds up for a fast one. Lower: Stovall swings-but who's the man behind the mask? May 7, and were again defeated, this time 6-3. Although Mitchell pitched a good game, the team was not at is best and allowed several errors which contributed to the Oiwls' score. In the last game of the season Decatur mauled the Blue Devils, 7-0. Shelton, the Bull- dog pitcher, hurled fine ball, giving up only one hit, which came when Barfield singled in the fourth, although the losing pitcher, Quarles did a good job and gave up only four hits. And thus ended the Blue Devils' '43 'base- ball season. The only noticea-ble casualty of the season was Coach Andy Anderson's -beau- tiful shiner which was inflicted at the Marist game. But all trivialities forgotten, MHS is proud of the team it produced and will perpetuate its fine record for the years to come. To our sponsors - the advertisers in this lmookm-we dedicate this page.
