Armsbury, Henry Lawerenoe Things do not happen in this wo -Id, they are brought about, and labor Is the foundation of all prosperity. It has been with Interest and concern that we have followed the class of ' 47 through the grades and up to the parting of the ways. They have met their problems with ambition, with courage, and with character, and aided by the co-operation of a patient, thoughtful and seasoned faculty, the fruits of their labor are here presented with the deepest respect and esteem, because it Is the result of their own effort.

PRESIDENTS WILLIAM WHITE Varsity Club 1,2, 3, 4 Football 2 Track 1,2 An island of good fellow- ship surrounded by a sea of dignified reserve. ADDR ESS On this the completion of the first important lap of our young lives the class of nineteen hundred and forty seven wishes to extend a cordial welcome to you, our parents, teachers, and friends. This class was marked at an early date as one which accomplisned that which it set about to do and continually held high this goal up to the present day. . . y e were not quite as prominent in athletics as our predecessors, but our athletes tried. We are just as proud of them as if they had been the county champions for their determination was so great that it out-shone any blunders they may have made. Their competitors realized this and when the election of the all county teams came about these teams placed three of our boys: Dick Nichols, Bob McCollister, and Don Bantien on the all county football team. McCollister also made the all Comity First Five in basket- ball. , , Undoubtedly there was someone behind these boys who taught and under- stood them. This person was Coach Robert Dresser and we extend many thanks to him. _ , , ,, ,,, We find that co-operation was the key note to successful class activities and to the preservation of the many traditions of our High School. Each person had something to offer to his class and took pride in the achieve- ments made by these efforts. That is why we are gathered here today in the first terminal point of the modern life. In reminiscing over our ' past years of class activities we Seniors ' minds will always linger at such high spots as our arrival of the Coronation Dance and the gay J-Hop with its Circus theme, the Junior-Senior banquet with Linus Liebaert as toastmaster, and the Prom which followed brought an evening of pleasure long to be remembered. Our fine inspiring carnival and the exciting Mistletoe Dance with Dick Nichols and Martha Cohrs being chosen as the most popular boy and girl in school brough a great deal of pleasure to all. The climax of the year came with the Senior Play, tactfully and skillfully directed by Mrs. Fullwood and Mr. Pfingst without whom its production would not have been possible, and the Senior trip, ..e have chosen for our motto, Let the ropes of the past ring the bells of the future. May it be true that our ropes of learning may pull us ahead in the future and each of this class find his goal and achievements, for truly these years spent in eruditio n have taught us more than mere schooling can for we have found the intangible values in those things which only come through co-operation, understanding, and determination. Upon leaving our High School, we want to thank you, our parents, teachers and friends, and especially our sponsors, Mr. Pfingst and Mrs. Fullwood, for your kindness and guidance to the class of 47 and to wish you all the success in the world. Harold Langell, President 15 LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT W9, the Senior class of nineteen hundred and forty seven, of the High School of Marine City, county of St. Clair and state of Michigan, being in poor bodily health due to four years of strenuous labor In our struggle for knowledge, having low IQ ' s and being in run down condition but nevertheless of sound mind do hereby bequeath and publish our last will and testament.

CLASS HISTORY Coming into High School as mask, innocent, and frightened little Freshmen, we started our journey down the slowly winding road. Our guides in this first milestone were Mrs. Telfer and Mr. Strong. Act- ing as our leader and giant boulder was Orville Duddy with Donna Cooper, Loraine Beier, Martha Cohrs, Mildred Smith and Margaret Donaldson the stepping stones of assistance. After resting on the side of the road for eleven weeks we ventured forth again and were ushered into our Sophomore year by Mrs. Anderson and Miss Brown. The boulder this year was Don Bantien, with David Foster, Donna Cooper, Mildred Smith, Loraine Beier and Dick Nichols as stepping stones. . . , . , We all had a great time in our second yesr of Junior High tobogganing, having welner roasts, sponsoring bake sales and after game sales. This started the campaign of earning money for our Senior year. After rounding a rather large bend in the road with the help and guidance of Miss Brown and Miss Bruce, another course in our journey was taken up. This began our successful Junior year. Dick Nichols was leading us thru this year with Lloyd Tripp, Donna Cooper, Marilyn Durow, and Jackie Razor as helpers. Many crowning events took place this year; it was our busiest mile- stone in our journey. We had a magazine sale which helped greatly our finan cial status, and we had bake sales and after game sales, all of which contributed to the fund to be used in our Senior year. We put on the biggest annual dance on April 27th--the J-Hop. We used The Circus as our theme in decorating the gym. It was a huge success. Not long after this the Junior and Senior Banquet and Prom took place. This was also a hugh success. Upon concluding our stay in Marine City High we undertook the lost lap of our journey. The biggest curve in the winding road was finally passed and we encountered smooth riding from then on in. The giant boulder of our Senior year was Harold Langell with Jackie Razor, Marilyn Durow, Don Bantien, Delores Spens, and Margaret Donaldson assisting. . _ Our sports season wasn ' t too successful, but we were proud of our boys anyhow. , , „ On April 15th and 16th we gave the Senior play, The Angell Brats, which was a great success. We had several successful dances this year, among them being the annuel Mistletoe Dance. We sold Christmas cards and magazines, and the money earned from these activities paid for our Senior trip, May 18th thru May 22nd. Our trip was on the South American boat to Chicago. We are grateful to our guides, Mr. Pfingst and Mrs. Fullwood, who helped us around the last curve of our adventurous journey. As we come to the end of the winding road, we depart — leaving the happy memories we have had, and we hope that those who follow us down this same road will have as many happy memories. WISECRACRS Miss Norrington: I hope I didn ' t see you lodking on the next boy ' s paper, Leonard. Leonard Langell: I hope you didn ' t either, ma ' am. Nathan Brewer: You ' ll have to excuse my dancing; I ' m a little stiff from football. Helen Grabis: I don ' t care where you ' re from. Get off my feet.

Having lost all the first team except Bob McCollister and Dick Nichols, Coach Bob Dresser began preparation for another fighting team. Excitement was the keynote in the first game here with New Baltimore. Both teams fought neck and neck for each point. The first half found the score 15-14 with Marine City out in front, but unfortunately New Baltimore got the best of us, and the game ended in the close range of 19-21. Nichols and Captain McCollister led the Orange and Black with 9 points each. Our next game was with Marysville and was played on the Marysville court. The Wildcats couldn ' t get their bearings and the game ended with the Blue and White being victorious. The Marine City team was led by McCollister with 7 points to his credit.

Marine City 6 Marysville 12 ft 0 Algonac 14 If 20 Richmond 0 If 12 Holy Cross 0 If 7 St. Clair 7 It 0 St. Stephens 7 ft 6 Memphis 20 It 7 Romeo 34 ' With a reputation of two years of championship teams to live up to, Coach Robert Dresser began training his 46 football team. Al- though the team didn ' t keep the championship here at Marine High, they made a very good stab at it under their Captain Don Bantien. 33 For the opener of the see son the Wildcats treked to Marysville. The Blue and White made the first score of the game after kicking to the Mariners, who were forced to punt in the first quarter. During the second half the Dream City made a long pass into our end zone to jack up the score 12-0. After several unsuccessful attempts to score, Bantien recovered a Marysville fumble and Cohrs and McColli ster ran the ball for the first down. Nichols passed to McGlynn who lateraled to DeLisle, who made the first touchdown of the season and ended the game 12-6. The following week we met Algonac at Ward Cottrell field. The Muskrats proved too much for the Wildcats, and made their 14 points in the first half. DeLisle, Nichols, and McGlynn covered a good deal of territory, and several times the Mariners were on the verge of scoring but couldn ' t quite make the goal. Richmond became the first victim of the 1946 football team in a 20-0 victory for the Marine eleven. The first half of this game proved uneventful with both teams trying but neither scoring. During the second half McLouth recovered a Blue and White fumble to run for the first six points of the game, and Nichols kicked the extra point. Next came a fast play in which Welser passed to McGlynn who lateraled to Nichols chalking up another six points. The extra point was also con- verted by Nichols. Nichols again broke through the Richmond line to make seven points for the Orange and Black and to make the game at the final whistle 20-0. Our second victory of the season came with the defeat of Holy Cross. Thi3 game had a very slow start, and again there was no scoring in the first half. At the beginning of the third quarter we kicked to Holy Cross who fumbled the ball. The Wildcats recovered the ball, and after attempting two plays a touchdown wss made by a fast pass from DeLisle to McGlynn. In this quarter the Mariners again scored-this time with Cohrs escorting the ball over the goal line. During the last quarter Holy Cross marched to the Marine City 7 yard line, but were stopped before they could score. The game ended 12-0. We next pitted our strength against a strong St. Clair team who was sharing top County honors with Marysville with no losses. St. Clair kicked to the Mariners. After several unsuccessful attempts to score, the Wildcats lost the ball to the River Saints who went over for a touchdown and to make the extra point. During the second quarter the Mariners came close to a goal but didn ' t quite make it. The third ' quarter was uneventful with fumbling by both teams, but in the fourth quarter the Orange and Black proved their worth when Liebaert recovered a Red and Blue fumble. The Wildcats then started a touchdown drive, Welser flipped the ball to McCollister who handed it to Nichols to reach the goal. The game was tied up 7-7 when McGlynn received a short fast pass from Welser in a surprise play for the extra point. The last game of the County league was played under the lights of the iiiemorial Stadium at Port Huron with St. Stephen and proved to be a rough game. We kicked to the Saints, who brought the ball to their 25 yard line, but were unsuccessful in scoring and punted to the Marine eleven. Nichols ran a line buck and made a first down. The next two downs were unsuccessful however. The fourth down brough Marine City out of her rut. Welser caught the Green and Gold off guard and threw a beautiful pass to McCollister who lateraled to Nichols, who trudged 48 yard to the goal line. Misfortune was with us however and the team re- ceived a great disappointment as the goal was over ruled by the officials as outside and returned to the 8 yard line. St. Stephens put up a strong defense and. prevented Marine City from scoring in four desperate attempts. The second half found both teams battlingback and forth for the possession of the ball, but neither was successful in scoring. The fourth quarter brought success to the Green and Gold; they completed a punt for a touchdown. The convert was good for one more point. The g8me ended 7-0 with St. Stephen on top. Out-of-the-County league games were played with Memphis and Romeo. The Memphis game found all the scoring done In the final half. Nichols made a goal but the Mariners had to bow to Memphis 20-6. Romeo with a strong and hard fighting ball club walked away with the game 34-7. Stager made the only Marine touchdown and the extra point was made. Nichols and McLouth were elected to the All-County first team and McColllster and Bantien to the second team. Six of the first string fellows will be graduating this year. We wish the team of ' 47 all the success possible and that their football season next year might be filled with only victories. BASKETBALL (Continued from page 31) We stayed at home to meet Richmond In our first victory of the season. The first half found Richmond leading 11-7, but the Mariners proved their ability to climb out of the hole and end the game with a final score of 16-18. McColllster led the Wildcats by scoring 10 points . After the victory over Richmond the Wildcats proved to be more confident and to really work together as a team. Their second victory came with the slaughter of Holy Cross, 30-12. The half found the Blue and White with 7 points and the Orange and Blsck with 14, so you can readily see how the same went in the last half. Ten points made Nichols high point man In this game. St. Clair was the next team on the schedule. The Mariners put up an excellent fight, but the River Saints were on the ball and took the game by 17 points. Our old point man McColllster again came through to be high point man of the game by scoring eight points. The Mariner ' s next game was with Algonac. The game was played on the Algonac court. The Muskrats had a one point lead on the Orange and Black at the half time, but lost it during the third quarter. Several lucky dog shots brought them back on their feet and the game ended an Algonac victory by only a one point margin. Nichols was again high point man by looping twelve points. January 24th brought a rough and tumble game with St. Stephens who turned the tables on the Mariners and took the game 47-18. McColllster rang up nine of the Mariners ' 18 points. We started the second round of the season in a battle with Marysville. We again met them on their court as the Ward Cottrell Gym wasbelng repaired. The Mariners put up a strong fight to keep their place in the county close but the Blue and White made good their attempts and claimed the game 19-39. Nichols chalked up eight points to be high point man. Richmond was next met on her floor in a fast moving game in which they stayed close at our heels. The game was tossed back and forth by both teams, but the Wildcats came out on top by edging out their opponents 28-26. Our Mr. Dependable, Dick Nichols made twelve points. 35 Our next victim was Holy Cross. Marine City captured the lead in the first quarter and held it throughout the game. At half time the score board registered 27-9 with the Orange and Black on top. The game ended with Marine City winning 44-26. McCollister led the Mariners with 18 points while DeLisle and Nichols both made 10. Luck changed with the playing of St. Clsir the following week. The Red and Blue took us for a 65-34 ride. The Mariners put forth a good fight but St. Clair was really hot. McCollister led the Mariners by chalking up 15 points. Algonac, our rivals to the south, brought with their game another thriller. The first quarter found the Maize and Blue with a five point lead over the Wildcats. The Muskrats continued to hold this margin until the last quarter when Marine City pulled out to take a slight lead. Their attempts were made futile by the last minute scoring of a bucket by Algonac to take the game 35-34. We went to Lakeshore to play our traditional out-of-the- League game. The half came with Lakeshore having a one point edge on the Orange and Black, but they put forth all their efforts to take the game 38-32. For the last game of the League campaign we played host to St. Stephens in a point for point game with the score 11-11 at the end of the first half. The Wildcats pulled out ahead of the Green and Gold at the end of the third quarter. During the last quarter however the Saints came to the top to grab the game 26-22. McCollister was high point man with 13 points to his credit. At the tournaments we drew Holy Cross for a starter and again knocked them down to play St. Stephens the following night. The Saints defeated the Mariners br only a slight margin. Captain McCollister was elected to the All-County first team. Five members of the first string are graduating this year and we wish to extend the best of luck to next years team. 36 TRACK Front Row: John McDonald, Don Cohrs, Eugene Totzke, Don Bantlen, Bill McGlynn, Dick Nichols, Fred McLouth, Linus Llebaert, Boh McCoillster , Don Diem.

The Monitor System was organized in 1943 by Mrs. Lillian Keith, faculty advisor of the Student Council. The Student Council members participate in the system as hall monitors. There are also students that have a free period who are asked to take the duty during that hour. It is their duty to check all student hall passes. The monitors willingness to cooperate to the fullest extent has added much to the success of this system. The Monitor System has proved its value many times, and under the fine direction of Miss Brown, it has ably assisted the faculty throughout this school year. This enables the school to keep a complete record of the students location during school hours. 47 JOURNALISM Front Row: Terry Foltanovich, Jean Lozon, Alma Watson, Donna Bradford, Joan Hamilton, Ruth Thoms, Martha Cohrs.

In 1928 Marine City High School acquired a chapter of the National Society. This Society recognizes four qualities: Scholarship, Character, Leadership, and Service as the most essential in a fine citizen. In order to promote these qualities it recognizes students who excel in them and accepts them as members of the society. Every year ten per cent of the Juniors and fifteen per cent of the Seniors, who are made eligible by their scholarship, and the faculty. The ones receiving the highest ratings are awarded membership to the society, one of the highest honors conferred upon a high school student . N. A.
