Qibwfggf gQ50IIL0llf2l' FUREWURH Everyone will, every now and then, in the midst of all the haste and turmoil that comes with modern civilization, relax by remembering past experiences-the sad and perplexing as well as the joyous and enlightening. With this book as an album of memories, the l95l REFLECTOR Staff hopes you will find occasion for happiness in retrospect as you review those carefree days. Remember raising the rafters at those bas- ketball gamesg those dreaded final exams: the tantalizing aroma of sulphur escaping from chem classy that certain date for the prom: the excitement of facing the footlightsy and those tears of both joy and sorrow upon the arrival of that long-awaited day of graduation? The shifting sands of time cannot erase those cherished memories you will recall as you reminisce with each following page. -a-U-'I i Page T11 rm' U Q c 1 'Y' M' 'W 3v 0 L A vigorous, growing school system is the living proof of a pro- gressive, dynamic community. On fanuary 27, l95l, the citizens of Mehlville approved, by a substantial margin, a 3208000 bond issue to finance the building program, now in progress. Although not designed to bring expansion to the Senior High School, the building program will provide for a new cafeteria and several new junior high classrooms at the south end of the High School, in addition to other improvements at Forder School for the elementary grades. The nation is becoming more aware of the importance of ade- quate education in these troubled times. The need for educational improvement is mounting with each passing year. The task of expanding the physical facilities of the schools demands immediate attention. It is gratifying to know that the citizens of this district have responded to that urgent need. To those who build for Americas tomorrowg to those who reply to need with actionp to the citizens of the School District of Mehlville, this l95l REFLECTOR is humbly dedicated.

B1-:'uza'zcl Principal Bierhenni His friendly approach is his secret weaponf' his great respect for the dignity of others is his mode of gaining respect from others: his methodical endeavors underscore his efficiency. Mr. K. O. Bierbaum, principal of Mehlville High School, through his firm yet friendly guidance, has earned the respect and loyalty of students and adults with whom he has dealings. After graduating from McKendree College, Mr. Bierbaum received his master's degree from Washington University. Mr. Bierbaum origin- ally taught science and mathematics classes, but his present duties as principal occupy all of his time. However, this pre-occupation with administrative duties does not prevent him from attending basketball games, where he is a regular in attendance. He also serves as business adviser for the REFLECTOR. Superintendent Bernard If quality and quantity of service, degree of sincerity, and extent of devotion to one's chosen life-work are true criteria of success in life, then Meh1vi1le's Superintendent Emil H. C. Bernard has ct goodly store of it. His impressive record of 38 years of service to the community seems remarkable. He was a teacher in past years. He later combined classroom and administra- tive duties, serving as teacher, principal, and superintendent at one time in his career. He has truly eamed the respect of his community in terms of service rendered. Mr. Bernard has attended Perkinson-Herple Commercial College, Southeast Missouri State College, and Missouri University. From the latter he received his bachelor's degree. He has done post-graduate work at Washington University. Combining his rich background of exper- ience, his natural ability to make friends, and his innate ability to become a part of any situa- tion, Mr. Bernard goes efficiently about his duties as chief administrator of a growing, ex- panding school district. As the years roll by, he adds to his store of experience, knowledge, and good will. allffz.

They had a very full and agreeable year, cli- maxed by their class trip to Tyson Park. As the doors of Mehlville opened for the third consecutive year to them, a great air of expectancy engulfed their every activity, as they prepared the Iunior-Senior Prom, the social highlight of the year. With three-fourths of their trek finished, the class awaits the fourth and final year with even more anticipation than when they first entered Mehlville High.

Each student wrote an oration, based upon some phase of the U. S. Constitution. Eliminations were held, and eight winners were chosen to participate in the local contest, held as a high school assembly program. According to the final tally ot the judges' ballots, Elmer Zumsteg was chosen to represent Mehlville in the South County contest. l'rai'ii.'C ilululft' f U -, ,l NIMINFW' U11 X I ll Le Bernie Francais Le Cercle Francais, Mehlvilles French Club, consists ot this years French I class and inac- tive members from previous French Clubs.

This thunderous roar, led by Cheerleaders Pat Parker, Trula Ponder, Carla Tompkins, Dori Parker, and Carol Eikmann, greets spectators upon entering the gym when the Mehlville Panthers are playing basketball. Mehlville's pep club tthe Pantherettesl and their vigorous cheerleaders deserve the credit for cheering the team on to victory when the chips are down. With money earned from sale of refreshments at games, they give a ban- quet for the team, at which time school letters are awarded. 1 To furnish direction for the year, the Pane therettes chose officers as follows: Treva Hell- meyer, president- Geraldine Skalas vicefpresi- dent Pat Newbold secretary treasurer Miss Lorena McCutchen is the sponsor ll VI HI L II I 1 1 Q 1 I Til If 1 I71rst ron. left to Ajllllf 7.11 flt'1'11v. l'. l'11rl.'1'1', ll. l'111l 1 I 111 1 l1f 1111111 Sl HIlfl 1'-fu, lvtlt tw rlyl l.1R1!.'. .l1f11111. lf1'1,'1'111111, 'I H11 t 1 ll Y 1111 It ll X 1 l11 tf11111ffw'H, l. tf.'- '1'!l1111, ,N'll'11'11.v, l'l1it'1l rifxxll-1: to right: llztt' ll1111'1l1.'11, 11.-1'f111'11, t 11111 1 fx: 1 11111 N lx'1'1y1111'1', lt'.'1'lI,x'. lf111,vi111f, I !1'1.1. tl11,f'1', l.1r1111, ld rl lr f X 1 1 Iftftlrth ron, lt-it L11 'gfti t'l1.'11111t11, N',l111rf1'f, tf111111H1 111 If 11 ll lift f 1 4 1 lftilffv, lx'1'lf'1', l1:'1'v. ill1'1'1'1'. .f1'1'11v1'1.'11, ,N1'!'11.'f1'1' ll l 111 I1 1111 i111' V.

Although the basketball sea- son, completed last February, left much to be desired in the way of victories, it did provide a few thrills for the loyal Panther fol- lowing. Winning only three games out of twenty-five is anything but a champions pace, however, a probable reason for this was lack of height. After losing most of his last year's team, including the starting quintet, Coach Cross had to build his new team entirely with short men. On the brighter side of the pic- ture was the thrilling victory over Valley Park in the Bayless Tourna- ment and the defeat of Bayless in the closing minutes of play, 50-48. This was the first time a Mehlville team has beaten Bayless in eight years. The leading scorer of the l95U-Sl season was Elmer Zum- steg. The future cage seasons at Mehlville appear to be quite a bit brighter as a glance at the B team record shows. The young Panthers not only played an in- spired brand of baslcetballq they also won seventeen games while dropping only seven as well as winning the championship in the South County B Team Tourna- ment. lVlohlvillo'5 Hoop Season Li-ft to right, lruth pictures: 1.augf4f1'd, .5lflt'tIll, lS'n'zt't'r'.v, H Yvllzufv, Zzfmx Page Fifly-T100 Be51aet1Je11 Queen Basketba11 Queen tar 1950-1951 is Miss Norma Schaefer, a member at the senior c1ass.
