Marine City High School - Mariner Yearbook (Marine City, MI)

Text from Pages 1 - 76 of the 1962 volume:

The Mariner Marine City Ward-Cottrell High School Marine City, Michigan In September, 1961, the new Marine City Ward-Cottrell High School opened its doors to re- ceive us. Since this year would be the high school’s maiden voyage, we decided to use the com pass as our guide. This yearbook is a record of our first trip. Staff Editor - Mary Lou McAlister Assistant editor - Susan Beebe Business editor - Mary Moore Assistant business editor - Kathy Cullen Copy editors - Lana Cobb Anita Hanson Art editor - Mary Lou McAlister Assistant art editor - Diane Williams Photographer - Henry Beattie Typists - Nancy Clark Dianne Lange 11 Alberta Springborn We, the 1962 Mariner Staff, dedicate this yearbook to the residents of the community, who have made possible this, our new high school. We students are proud of it and hope that we can prove ourselves worthy of it. With attractive and more adequate facilities, we should find our years in high school more enjoyable and more fruitful. With more rooms and more teach- ers, we have more subjects to choose from. With more space and more equipment, we have a greater variety of organizations which we may join in order to follow our interests and tal- ents. Friday night dances in the cafeteria dining area, games in the big, bright gymnasium, a seat for everyone at an assembly, a stage on which to give an assembly program— all these things and many more will be among our happy memories of high school days. So, when you the residents of the then Marine City Community School District voted to erect this building, you gave to us and the students coming after us a chance for a better education. We may not go on to become famous in any field; but we hope that because of your interest in us, we will become better citizens. 3 Board of Gducation The members of the Board of Education for the newly organized East China School District are Mr. Edwin Lindow, Mr. Leland Sass, Mrs. Mary Phillips, Mr. John Kralik, Mr. Donald MacDonald, Mr. Milton Gearing, and Mr. William Hopson. Administrative officers are Dr. Harold L. Hawkins, superintendent; Mr. Jacob Millikin, assistant superintendent; and Mr. Robert Bolla, administrative assistant. Principal Mr. Gdward (jrudell Making a new building behave as a high school is Mr. TrudelPs job this year. For eight years he listened to students’ excuses for being late or absent, entertained those sent from classes, and did the many other things which go along with being principal in the room on the top floor of the school on South Main Street. Last sum- mer he turned that building over to Mr. Danneels and set about get- ting the new building into order. A native of Ishpeming, a fact that we have not been allowed to forget, Mr. Trudell received his education in the Ishpeming public schools, Northern Michigan College of Education, and Michigan State University. He came to Marine City as a commercial teacher in 1950. In the fall of 1951, when Mrs. Florence Duddy retired, he became one of the guidance counselors. Then in the fall of 1953 he became principal. We students will remember many things about Mr. Trudell, but most vivid to us will be his “Simmer down! ” and the cheer which he taught us.

With loyalty as endless as the waters Which past us flow in sparkling majesty — With loyalty as endless as the waters Which past us flow in sparkling majesty. Thy glories past shall be our inspiration; May all our deeds add to that wondrous tale. Give us thy wisdom, courage, and devotion As we reflect thy name both far and near— Give us thy wisdom, courage, and devotion. Be with us always, Alma Mater dear. Words by James J. Hewitt Music— Finlandia” Homecoming , The first Homecoming in our new school was held on September 29, 1961. The student body chose as queen Susan Finnigan, who was crowned at the assembly by Jerry Foster, vice-president of the Student Council. Representing the grades as princesses in the queen ' s court were Gayle Senger, senior; Karla Tug- han, junior; Beverly Kohlhoff, sophomore; and Karen Styk, freshman. Queen Sue and her court reigned over the pep assembly which followed the coronation, the football game in the evening, and the dance. Princess Gayle 12th Grade Princess Beverly 10th Grade Queen Sue Princess Karen 9th Grade 33 Princess Karla 11th Grade Career Nigtit This year with our big, new gymnasium, we were able to hold the joint annual Marine City- Algonac Career Night. On November 2, from 7:30 till 9:30, Juniors and Seniors and their par- ents met with representatives from twenty universities, colleges and vocational schools. They discussed such matters as entrance requirements; the cost of tuition, housing, and so forth; and the ratio of boys to girls on the campus. This is the third year for Career Nights. Because of our limited facilities before, Algonac held them two years in succession. Institutions represented here were Alma College; Central Michigan University; Detroit En- gineering Institute; Eastern Michigan College of Commerce; Eastern Michigan University; Ferris Institute; General Motors Institute, Flint; General Motors, Chevrolet Motor Division; Grace Hospital School of Nursing; Lawrence Institute of Technology; Michigan College of Min- ing and Technology; Michigan State University, East Lansing; Michigan State University, Oak- land; Northwood Institute; Olivet College; Port Huron Junior College; Port Huron Junior Col- lege School of Nursing; Radio Electronic Television Schools; University of Michigan; Wayne State University; Western Michigan University. 34 Some Gncdanted Gvening The Line Up Glamor Gals Pretty Shaky The first formal dance in the new gymnasium was the J-Hop, “Some Enchanted Evening,” given on Saturday, November 4. Flamingoes, grass huts, palm trees, and even a Tiki trans- formed the room into a South Sea island. Censored Lotus Blossom Our Hearts Were l)oung and Qay The Seniors presented their play, OUR HEARTS WERE YOUNG AND GAY, on November 16. It was the first play to be presented in the new gymnasium. Sandra Dicer and Mary Beth Korbelak, who played Cornelia Otis Skinner and Emily Kimbrough respectively, did an excellent job in the leading roles as they portrayed the young actress and author on a boat trip to Europe in 1923. Dianne Langell and Terrance Warner played the parts of Cornelia’s mother and father. The ship-board romances came about after the girls had met Robert Tennant and Robert Struhar. Mary Lou McAlister and Lucy Forsyth were two English girls. Janet Paquette was the stew- ardess; Stephen Pondo, the steward; and Peter Becker, the purser. The part of the admiral was played by Robert Rhoades. Kenneth Earl was the inspector who had to be hoodwinked into letting Cor- nelia’s case of measles off the ship. Lucille Walters and Janice Simons saw to the girls’ needs at the Paris hotel. Art Roberts, the French actor, didn’t appreciate Cornelia’s talent, but the window cleaner, Rusty Furtaw, was a most appreciative audience. Most of the girls’ costumes, authentic for the period, were bor- rowed from Mrs. Harold Carpenter of Flint. Mr. Hewitt directed the play; he was assisted by Maurine Casler. When students forgot their lines, they were prompted by Alberta Springborn and Mary Moore 36 Qymnastics Assembly Because we had a spacious gymnasium, we were able to have this type of assembly. The gymnastics team from St. Clair performed for us.

The Science Club is sponsored by Mr. Teichow and Mr. Newcombe. It was organized for the students who are especially interested in the study of sciences and wish to learn more about them. The club allows the student to go deeper into scientific subjects than he goes in the classroom. Thus far no project has been decided on, but the club is shopping around for one.

Mr. Plummer and Mr. Horning feel that the competition in tournament play is very good for the participants. There are eleven different chess sets in the club. There are three main classes of players in the club: the beginning player, the player who learns fast, and the experienced player. The Chess Club has been successful in teaching many people the fundamentals of chess.

Sfiaffuc£ As we look back on our first year in the new high school, we find some sadness mingled with the joy. One of the best loved teachers ever to serve in Marine City High School left us because of ill health. In the eleven years that he taught here, Mr. Shattuck endeared himself to all his students and to his fellow teachers. No teacher was ever more interested in his students than was Mr. Shattuck. He was never too busy to give individual help. He spent long hours correcting papers and preparing for classes the next day. He also found time to set up an efficient bus route. He also sponsored classes— the Audio-Visual Club is a lasting tribute to him. He contributed much to school spirit— even if it meant wearing an orange and black tie knit by two students. When the new building was planned, Mr. Shattuck, along with Mr. Newcombe, gave much time and thought to the science department. However, illness prevented him from enjoying the results of his work. There are few of us who are not better people for having come under Mr. Shattuck ’s in- fluence. We shall be forever grateful to him for his part in making our school what it is. What greater monument can a person have than the minds he helped shape ! We played our first basketball game in the new gym on December 1. Our opponents were our old rivals, the Muskrats from Algonac. The game was close; as a matter of fact, it was tied quite often until the last quarter. When the last buzzer rang, we, alas and alack, were behind— 59 to 47. Pep Clu6 To help in keeping up school spirit, the Pep Club was formed.
