ESdbRl JOE WALL ihambless ai 'RT RICHAl LINDA COOKSEY WD J tf NIE BARNETT EY DEATON 'Ike The night of April 23, 1954 was the annual Freshman - Sophomore Hop.

The Junior Class Play for 1954-1955 was titled Moonlight and Applesauce. This light comedy welded the elements of comic situation, love affairs, and mysterious criminals skulking about into a sparkling plan that kept the audience guessing to the very end. Eli and Ellen Barnes, with their daughters Kay and Nita, and thin shrewd Grandmother are involved in this plot. Eli's invention — an apple deseeder — was stolen, causing a frantic, violent search for a gas conserver by Archie and Lillie. A break-up occurred between Kay and Oswald, Nita and Frank. Apprehension of the criminals and right partners returned to partners climaxed the play, along with the discovery of the stolen diamonds in the gas conserver. SENIOR PLAY Buy Jupiter, a clever comedy, was put on by a cast of seniors as their class play for 1955. All of the action in the play takes place in a foyer between the toy and sporting goods departments of Joyce's Department Store in New York City. Kay Linsey, head of the toy department, is attempting to forge her way into the business world. Betty, Kay's younger sister, and Joe Burns, the stockroom boy, are trying to help Kay, but can only manage to get themselves and everyone involved in awful predicaments. Jupiter, the talking rabbit, who really is as silent as a mute, is high-pressured on Kay by Fizz Foster, a fast talking con-man. After Mrs. Joyce is let down by Jupiter, while exhibiting him at a Children's Bazaar, Kay receives her pink slip ; but Hank Hughes saves the day by rejuvenating Jupiter and causing customers to clamor to buy him.

Fans who viewed Marion football in 1954 found something old and something new on the grid- iron. Once again the varsity squad provided many thrills and interesting games of football but could manage to come out on top in only one game. Coach Mathieu's squad boasted no outstanding players but several consistent performers. The something new was the outstanding record of Coach Wales' Freshman-Sophomore squad who accomplished what no Marion team has done in several years in winning 5 games and losing only 3.  FRESHMAN - SOPHOMORE SQUAD Bottom row (left to right) George Hogan, Billy Borum, Larry Edwards, Charles Wilson, Gary Hamilton, Charles Hanks, Don Gibbons, Larry White, John Grisley, James Jenkins, Walter Whiting, Danny Mayer . . .

Track and Field enthusiasts in and around Marion in the spring of '54 saw a team which displayed more depth than any track squad from Marion in many years. The Mathieumen went undefeated in dual and triangular meets with a squad consisting of only six seniors. Outstanding performances were given by Wall in the high jump, Odum in the discus, and Groves in the 100 and 220-yard dashes. With these boys winning firsts, and other team members bringing in the all-important seconds and thirds, the trackmen had a season's record of which to be proud. 100 Yard Dash GROVES, BELCHER 220 Yard Dash GROVES, BELCHER, McALLISTER 440 Yard Dash FULKERSON, BANKSTON, KING 880 Yard Dash GUNN, MATHIS, KING Mile Run BANKSTON, FLUCK, BERNHARD Hurdles CAMPBELL, NORMAN, JACKSON Shot Put MILLS, BERNHARD, ODUM, ALEXANDER Discus ODUM, GUNN, MILLS High Jump WALL, HARRIS, NORMAN Pole Vault GERWIG, ANDERSON, ALEXANDER, WALL DISCUS: LARRY ODUM HURDLES: JIM CAMPBELL Broad Jump KING, ANDERSON, McALLISTER Varsity Relay GROVES, WALL, HARRIS, KING, ODUM Freshman Relay ANDERSON, Jl.
