OFFICERS President------------------------------------A. A. Barnaby Vice-president..............................Albert Linehan Chairman of Board for Buses----------------Stewart Tredway Non-member Clerk----------------------------Teresa Mossing BUSES Our school's bus system consists of five buses, all meeting state requirements as to safety, etc. This year the fleet was strengthened by the addit ion.of a new Gen- eral Motors bus to supplant the 1935 Chevrolet, which was previously the smallest and oldest bus. We, the students,wish to thank the drivers who trans- port us safely to and from our homes each day. It is through their patience and sense of responsibility that we arrive at school each morning, despite weather and other hazards. SCHOOL BUILDING Our school's capacity was greatly enlarged by the new addition in 1932. This year the entire gym floor was torn up and rebuilt because of a weakness in the chemically treated underfacing. The grounds have been greatly improved by planting shrubs and flowers in the horseshoe drive. A regular mowing has kept the playground smooth and green also.

The classes are under the supervision of Father Fromherz, Sr. Germaine, Sr. Colombiere, Reverend Ford,Roverini Guth- rie, Reverend Storms,Reverend 3oettcher,and Reverend Myors.

In 1929 our Democracy began with eleven delegates whose nemes follow here. Jack Farough, Carol Smith, Paul Scheuer, Marguerite Fuhrer, Patrxcia Scheuer, Elizabeth Ries, Arlene Pifer, Mary Margaret Ries, Robert Herrick, Junior Clark, and Harold Gillen. Of these eleven, eight completed their journey in our Democracy. In our second year of work we received Clare Champion and lost Harold Gillen, but our fourth year found Harold back with us. During the 6th, 7th, and 8th grades we didn't get very far, but during our 6th year we lost Paul Scheuer and gained Bert Cartwright. In the 7th year we received Grace Snyder and in the 8th year of our work, Robert Cole joined us. During our freshman year we msde the greatest headway of our Democracy. Tnat year 24 new members decided to join with us to make” our Democracy a success. They were Viayne- KcMunn, Loretta killer, Mary Ott, Arlene Nye, Clifford Lang- endorfer, Florence Jacob, Harold Hasten, Davis Farnsel, Leo Kassen, Marian Truckor, Violet Schroeder, Donna Heckert, Donald Stutzman, Lawrence Netcher, Bill Simon, Raymond Grew, Howard Scheuer, Margaret Trumbull, Frances Ricica, Norbert Miller, Martha Ricica, Roland Reister, Paul Scheuer, and Kerman Ott. In our second year of high School wo lost Raymond Grew, Francis Ricica, Martha Ricioa, Roland Reister, and Norbert Miller, but we gained Phyllis Kniffin, Jack Griffin, Clarice Rosenbrock, Helen Visiters, and Anita Anaya. Each year we lost and gained. The third year we lost Marion Truckor, Helen Walters, Howard Scheuer, and Elizabeth Ries, with a gam of Edna Mae Simon, Betty Ruth Van Blarcum, Helen Has3en, and Julia Becker. Now as we come to the end of our long journey to make our Democracy a success we've lost Carol Smith, Anita Anaya, Dcvis Farnsel, Mary Margaret Hies, Betty Ruth Van Bxcrcum , and Phyllis Kniffin. ALMA MATER Sweet be thy memory, high school of ours. Pair be thy destiny, fadeless thy flowers, Hearts that have loved thee; have won in life's fight. Names that we honor, our standard holds bright. Our Metamora, dear, to thee we sing. May all thy future years new honors bring. May friends thy banners raise, thy foes grow less. All love and praise to our old M« H. S.

WITNESSES SIGNED SENIOR PROPHECY The following is a page from the diary of two famous travelers. It is summer in the year 1956. In the midst of our trip to the far West, we have decided to spend an evening in the average American city, Utopia. As we enter the town, we stop to inquire from a police- man where we can find accommodations for our brief visit. As he approaches the car, we recognize our old friend, BERT CARTWRIGHT. After the formalities are over, Bert directs us to the Ambassador Hotel owned and managed by that well-known sportsman, JACK FAROUGH. When we are registering at the desk, we discover the clerk to be 'JAYNE MCMUNN. He directs us to Room 212 and rings for a bellboy to take our baggage. As we turn to go to our room, we recognize the bellboy to be none other than BOB COLE. After we have settled ourselves in our room, we decided to inspect the town. We haven't progressed over a block from the hotel when our eyes are attracted by a large sign, read- ing: Gillen's Super-Service Market. We go inside and greet our former friend HAROLD GILLEN. Harold tells us of his ex- periences after he left Metamora, and tells us that the uni- que beauty shop located beside his market is owned by the Kisses LORETTA MILLER and MARY LOUISE OTT. Due to the fact that our visit is short, we reluctantly tell Harold good-bye and leave. About a half-block from the store we turn to enter the De Luxe Nite Club and are surprised to find that the door- man is HERMAN OTT. Herman tells us that he is in the employ of CLIFFORD LANGENDERFER, well-known playboy, who operates the club. We enter and are directed to a table by the head waiter DONALD STUTZMAN. As soon as we have given our order, we hear the sweet strains of music and find the orchestra to be none other than CLARE CHAMPI N'S Serenadors who are now nationally famous. We speak to Clare, and he tells us his chief inspiration is his wife, FLORENCE JACOB. The lights dim and a spotlight is focused on Miss PATRICIA SCHEUER, the featured vocalist, v.ho sings one of the popular numbers of the day, May I Never Love Again. SENIOR PROPHECY ( Cont.) We return to the street and purchase a paper from the newsstand, which v;e discover to he operated by BILL SIMON, ..e glance at the heading of the paper and find the editor to be Miss VIOLET SCEROEDER, the world-famous journalist with Miss EDNA MAE SIMON as her assistant. We glance at the head- lines and find that the army is testing their latest defense weapon, designed by that famous aeronautical engineer,JACK GRIFFII. The airplane will be tested by that daring stunt p-lot, JUNIOR CLARK,. As ' we turn to the Sports page, we notice that the Detroit Tigers are leading the league, due to the sensational hitting of thoir spark plug shortstop BOB IIERRICK, We are then attracted by an advertisement of Miss HELEN HASoEN’S Dress Shop, who features the latest styles designed by JbLIA BECKER. In one corner of the advertisement v;e notice the initials MT. Upon inquiring we find that they are the initials of MARGARET TRUMBULL who is the art editor,, we turn to the society page and upon our first glance we see a picture of ARLENE PIFER who is announcing her engagement to HAROLD KASSEN, a’broker in stocks and bonds - We discover that ARLENE NYE is the editor of the society page- Since we are interested in music, we stopped at a music shop owned by MARGUERITE FUKRER. The violins that she 3clls are autographed by none other than that famous concert violinist, DONNA HECKERT. After wo completed our purchase of music we preparod to wrap it in the newspaper and our eye fell upon an article stating that LEO HASSLE, factory worker was injured by an automobile on the way to work.. We go up to visit him and find that Kiss CLARICE ROSENBROCK is the nurse. As we prepare to leave the doctor comes in and he is none other than PAUL SCKEUER. Dc roturn to our hotel to spond the rest of the night in sleeping. In the morning we ate breakfast in the Ambassador Grill, When wo cashed our checks, we found that the cashier was GhACE SNYDER,. We then continued on our trip to the west.A- long the road we notice a man on a tractor. He was cutting wheat. Due to the fact wo wanted to find out more about the life on a farm, wc stopped to talk to him.Wo wore surprised to find that it was LAURENCE EETCEER After some discussion wc continued on our journoy- BERT CARTWRIGHT Bert is among the tallest in the class.

FLORENCE JACOB A silent girl with laughing eyes With Clare she seems to have won the prize. In her grades she does all right. She believes you need to get sleep at night. LEO HASSEN Leo is a lot of fun And his work is never done This doesn't happen as a rule I guess its' because he doesn't like school.

They are reading, writ- es� spelling, arithmetic, language, geography, social stud- ies, science, health, physical education, art', and music. So you see we are quite busy with things to do. I like arithmetic best of my studies. Sometimes I don't get very good grades in it, but I am still willing to try it. Now we are studying about dividing decimals. At first they were pretty hard but now they are getting essier all the time. MARY LOU TAYLOR ON BEING A SIXTH GRADER We have many different studies; I like history best of all. I like to read about the inventions. In English we are learning to pick out the different parts of speech in sentences. In arithmetic we are learning about decimals. V e have learned how to add, subtract, and multiply the decimals, and now we are learning to divide with them. Spelling is the easiest of all subjects for me. We also study science, safety, health, and geography. ON BEING A SIXTH GRADER In the sixth grade we work until ten-thirty, and then we have recess. We then have school until twelve o'clock. Ten minutes of one v e begin the afternoon work and again have re- cess at two-thirty. The things I like are geography, health, and language. I think arithmetic is the hardest. JIMMIE HEPFRON ON BEING IN THE FIFTH GRADE We are studying about the same subjects as other fifth graders. We have about fourteen subjects in all. They seem hard to some and easier to others. When they seem hard to some of us we do as well as we can and soon they seem easier to us.

We are Good Citizen Boosters, Eight and ten years old; In the third and fourth grade And we try to do as we are told. There isn't much that we can tell These folks so big and wise, Except that things will surely come To him who tries and tries. We are going to do the best we can To grow up just like you. We work and study very hard. We know you want us to. There is time for work; And time for play. We need both for a happy day Our book did say. We like to have a little fun At recess and at noon. And we're going to win at basketball Very, very soon. We are thankful for bread and milk. For vegetables and fruit. And we're always very happy When we get a new suit. We love our flag. Waving above our schoolhouse high. It waves to the trees. When the wind is passing by. To prove we love our flag, Our books all say We must do right Every day. 1. We will not whisper because it bothers others. 2. We will not interrupt a class by asking questions when others are having class. 3. We will work when we work and play when we play, 4. We will be neat, cheerful and courteous. 5. We will help our schoolmates and our teacher in every way that we can. FIRST AND SECOND We were shown a picture of a child swinging and asked to make some rhymes, something like the following------ Swing, swing, to and fro, Point our tees as up you go. Here are our rhymes; Swing, swing, to and fro, Tell me, tell me, what do you know? Sv ing, swing, to and fro, Watch me, watch me, here I go. Swing, swing, to snd fro, First up high, then down low.. Swing, swing, to and fro. Look, look, I see a crow. Swing, swing, to and fro. See the river down below. Swing, swing, to and fro, Eoats on the river—row, row, row. Swing, swing, to and fro. Up and down, fast then slow. Swing, swing, to and fro. Slow, slow, now you know. The above lines from the poem, A Very Good Rule, were read to the class. The pupils then composed the following: If you're jumping a rope. Don't sulk and don't mope-- Jump it as well as you can. When you're in school It's a very good rule To study as well as you can. If you're playing a game, Don't cheat and don't blame-- Flay it as well as you can. KINDERGARTEN After hearing the nursery rhyme, To market, to market, to buy a fat pig. Home again, home again, market is done-- The kindergarten composed this: To market, to market, to buy some meat. Home again, home again, now we will eat. To market, to market, to buy a loaf of bread. Home again, home again, now we go to bed. OK BEING A FIFTH GRADER I like spelling because I get one hundred mo3t of the time. I don’t like arithmetic so well because it is a quite hard subject for me. I like language although . the work seems hard. —CAROLINE KINTZ OK BEING A FIFTH GRADER I like to be a fifth grader because I like to work in geography, history, and other things, such as reading, writ- ing, arithmetic, health, and safety. I like art the besti because I can draw pictures. —ROY HINTZ ATHLETICS INDIVIDUAL VARSITY SCORES AND OUR BASKETBALL TEAM MEMBERS Bob Herrick--------------185 Clifford Langer.derf er--123 Clare Champion------------80 Harold Gillen-------------36 Bert Cartwright-----------21 Joe Malone—---------------21 Harold Langenderfer-------IS Robert Cole---------------17 Dick Wells...............-17 Total------519 MANAGERS Bob Dercallne Claud Woodring tt-if-H-tK- HHH;- ii iHBf-iKH! -SB' iHr «■ JUKIOR HIGH BASKE IB ALL TEA!!

SENIOR HIGH CHEERLEADERS Johnny Burgermeister, Patricia Schmitz, Willis Thompson VARSITY GAMES FAYETTE--November 15. The Metamora Tigers startod off the season by playing host to Payette. This first game proved to be one of the most exciting of the year. When the regular game ended,the teams were deadlocked in a tie. Everybody in the gym was standing up when the overtime period started. It took three overtime periods to decide who was winner. In the last over time,our opponents slipped up and we lost the game 30 to 28. It was very disheartoning for the boys to lose the first game. FULTON--November 26. Fulton played host to us, and we thought wo had this game won for a while, until the Red Raiders got busy and ran circles around our Tigers in the last quarter to win 26 to 10. Wo had it all over Fulton for the first throe quarters, but they proved they could come out from behind, when it counts. ALUMNI--November 29. Although the Alumni were a little out of practice.thoy were very much taller and more experienced. But the Tigers gave them quite a run for thoir monoy and only until the last quarter were tho Alumni ahead by more than 4 or 5 points. They could not go through our defense, but thoy wore so tall, thoy wero able to go ovor it. SYLVANIA—December 6. This year wo wont ovor oxpoctlng to boat Sylvania as in tho previous year, but instead, tho Tigers took their worst drubbing of tho year. Tho Coach started tho second team and Sylvania ran up quite a score; however, the first team couldn't do any better and we came in on the short end by a score of 42-16. CHESTERFIELD—December 13 The Black and Orange went to Chesterfield with the de- termination that they wero going to win or bust. Thoy wonj Things seemed to be getting under way at last. The boys had better team work, better shooting and thoy took over by a scoro of 37 to 26. ARCHBOLD--December 20. Archbold had one of tho finest working teams that we ran up against all year. V o expected to do bettor after beating Chcstorfiold, instead, we had quite a lot-down. Tho Blue Stroaks put us in our place with a 38 to 17 tally. HOLLAND-January 7. THo team journeyed over th-rc to play Holland's t-am. Vie found that they were not so bad, but somehow our homo boys just couldn't hang on to a lead. Severa.1 timos in previous games we have had good loads and then lost them. This proved no exception and the game was thrown away. The final score v as 3G to 32 in Holland's favor. PLTTISVILLE-January 10. Pettisville came here for this game. V c were looking forward to knocking the Blackbirds off by a considerable score, since they had lost their tall and highacoring cent.r from last year; but the id -a backfired on us and the result v as that Pettisville held our team dov.n to the lowest score of the year, they v.on 20 to 12. LYOI’o-January 14. Lyons is our oldest and b-st rival and when we ar« able to beat them we fe -l as though something has b-un accomplish- ed. It was, for the boys gave their b at exhibition of the year. It s.emod as though the ball j ist couldn't help but going in and th- teamwork among the players was the best we had over had. To make it bj3t of all it was our ancient rival that a 57 to 39 score was rolled up against. WHIT -HPUSH-January 17. The Tig-rs were still going strong when V.hitchouss came here. They had a veteran team from the year before, but the homeboys still weren't to be stopped. It seemed now, at last, that the boys were finally started and couldn't be stopped. V,e went on to win this gam- easily br a 40 to 25 score. CHLoTLRr ILLL -January 21. In the previous game on their floor we had boaten Chesterfield by a fairly good score and thought that this time would prove no exception. But the team let down on their good, streak. That was about all there was to it, no- body could g-t to hitting and Chesterfield von 45 to 35. LYONS-January 28. Lyons came over h re d t.rmlncd to avenge the drubbing they received from the Tigers in the previous game; however if there's anybody we can beat, it's Lyons. We ran up a good lead and for a while it looked as though Lyons might ov-r- co.nc it, but thuy didn't -nd the Tigers walked off the floor jubilantly with a close 32 to 28 score. FULTON-January 31. Fulton came over with a very much Improved team from the first time we played them, but our team had improved also and it was a nip and tuck affair to the closing minutes. Then Ai slipped in several quick baskets and we could not overcome the lead. We lost 35 to 28. Most of our games this year have been lost by just a few points. FAYETTE-Februa ry 7. We went to Fayette to avenge that overtime defeat that Fayette handed to us in our first game. Still ’'Lady Luck was not with us although at the end it seemed like she was smiling. Going into the last quarter we were 14 points behind, but the unusual happened and the lead was cut down to 5 points with but a minute to go; however, there was not tine enough and the Black and Orange went down fighting 35 to 28. DELTA-February 14. Delta came over with their League leading champions and expected to give us a good trouncing. But again our team during the first half tripled the score on them. Delta was quite worried and surprised. She came back fighting and sur- mounted the huge lead and went on to win a thrilling contest 35 to 31. It was another of the many games in which we have lost a lead and then lost the game by just a few points. TOURNAMENT CHESTERFIELD A week later after the Delta game we entered the Pulton County Tournament. Chesterfield was the team we drew and we expected to win this game. But, obviously, Chesterfield va s thinking of how wo beat them last year in the tournament and they were out to win. They did. They upset the predictions by winning a fairly close one 26 to 14. PETTISVILLE Although we lost the first game vis were still not out of the tournament. Any team must be beaten twice before th are out and ve still had a chance of becoming a runner-up. For a while it looked as if we were going to lose this one like the rest. In the 3rd quarter and the start of the 4th, we were lagging by five points. But the team didn't give in. Instead they settled down and pulled the game out of the fire by 3 points. We won 32 to 29. H5 BIOGRAPHY OF MR. McKAY Coach McKay was born in Akron, Ohio, where he gradu- ated from the Akron Central High School. While in high school, he played both football and baseball. He also took part in track and field events and wa3 a member of the wrestling and gym teams. Through the Akron Turner Club, a gymnastic society,he gained the opportunity of competing for a two year scholar- ship at the Normal College of American Gymnastic Union in Indianapolis, Indiana. He won the scholarship. However, at the end of two years, he transferred to Kent State Uni- versity because it was nearer to Akron, Mr. McKay was a member of the college fraternity, the Phi Epsilon Kappa.He also took part in the wrestling, boxing, fencing, swimming, and gym teams at college. He majored in physical education and industrial arts and graduated with the degree of Bach- elor of Science in Education. Mr. McKay believes that an ideal student is one who is interested enough in his school work to do it well, and still find time to go out for sports. He says that the best athletes are good scholars. He also states that an ideal athlete participates in a variety of sports and plays the game for the sake of the game itself. He will win without bragging and lose with a smile because he knows that he has done the best In his capacity. Mr. McKay's philosophy of life is to do the best he can in whatever he may be doing. He doesn't think the job matters as much as the spirit in which it is done. Before coming to Metamora, Mr. McKay taught at the Granger township schools, and at a school in Sardinia, Ohio. INTER CLASS BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT Mr. McKay has given a trophy to the winning team and also a foul shooting trophy. Any class member could participate except the first ten on the varsity team.

Bob Donahue, George Patteuw, Kenneth Keith, Jack Taylor, Eddie Rardin, Mr. Barr. JUNIOR HIGH CHEERLEADERS Mary Lee Carr, Alex Barba, Dawn Potter BOB HERRICK Bob was our captain-elect from the year before. The team's choice proved to be one of good judgment for Bob proved that ho was worthy of that position. Bob was one of our best shots, the best faker on the team and • throughout his three years of varsity playing he hns earned quite a name for the school as well as for himself. Bob played his last year for Metamora. CLIFFORD LANGENDBRFER Cliff is another man the team is going to miss sorely next year. He is tall and rangy and extremely dead on his famed pivot ahct. Cliff is not only noted for this shot in our own school but in the surrounding schools as well. He has been named a man to watch carefully when he has a good night. Cliff is another of the long list of seniors which made up our team. This was Cliff's 3rd year of varsity ball. CLARE CHAMPION Champ was short and stockily built but mado up fdr it in his passing and ball handling ability. He was a fast passer and fairly good on his long shots toward the latter end of the year. He was of most value in getting the ball into the wings and the center position and working the ball around in general. He was a guard and small in height but could break in towards the basket and mako a shot. This was Champ's 3rd and last year on the varsity. BERT CARTWRIGHT Squatsy was the tallest man on the team standing all of 6' 2 . Bert ' usod-hia height to good advantage by taking care of the rebounds. He was of great value in this respect for it gave our team the ball and a chance to start up the floor. Bert has served 3 years on the varsity and has hung up his suit for the last time. HAROLD GILLEN Hank is one of these kinds of players who is in on every play trying to get possession of the boll. Nobody usually argues with him when he put his hands on it either. Hank was good on his long shots from nearly every spot on the floor. He is of fairly good height and helped clocr the board. Hank is another Senior who will be missed. ROBERT COLE Bob is another senior who will be missed on next year's team. Bob was one of the more shorter boys on the team but he made up for it on his prowess and shooting. He was a good long shooter and pretty fair on his side shots. This was also Bob's 3rd year on the varsity team. JOE MALONE Killer was another player who was very good at taking the rebounds off the bankboard. Joe was a good shot and was always after the ball. He forced the ball into a tie-up and jump” and then he would tip it to one of his team mates and the play would start. V;e are thankful that he's not a senior like most of the others and next year we are looking for great things from the Killer. HAROLD LAI’GBND'ERFER Hattie was a good man in both the wings and the center positions. He could work the ball into the center and to either side. He didn't concentrate on one shot like his brother did, but he was a good shot from most any position. Hattie is the other of the two juniors that will be welcomed back for next year. DICK WELLS Dick was really at odds this year for he was the shortest and the least experienced member of the varsity. This did not seem to bother him at all for he played a great deal on the varsity. Being small he could slip in under the basket and score that way. Dick is only a sophomore and we'll see much more of him on the varsity.

SPORTSMANSHIP Sportsmanship is that Quality of honor that desires al- ways to be courteous, fair, and respectful and it is inter- preted in the conduct of each and every individual. 'We can all practice sportsmanship not only in athletics and games but in all our relationships with other people. e can practice good sportsmanshi' in our school and our home. The practice of sportsmanship brings about more harmonious relations in all organizations and groups. The following is The Prayer of a Sportsman, which we could all follow? Dear Lord, in the battle that gees on tnrough life, I ask but a field that is fair; A chance that is equal with all in the siriie, A courage to strive and to dare. If I should win, let it be by the code, With my faith and my honor held high. If I should lose, let me stand by the road And cheer as the winners go by„ --0. J. Pifer Athletic Director THE PART SPORTS lLAYS II OUR LIVES Athletics and sports play a major part in our present day civilization. Today, as never before in the history of mankind, we have more per ons en aged in some form of ath- letics or sports. Everyone loves some form of competition. Some like the quieter forms such as checkers, chess, card playing, or shuffle-board. Others go in for the more stren- uou3 type of games, such as tennis, basketball, boxing, football. Every game varies as to the amount of skill or or energy needed, but they are all the same when it comes to what makes a good clean game of it. No matter what your preferences in sports may be, you admire and respect the fellow who plays to the best of his ability, and plays clean ly. Whenever we take part in competition, it isn't the win- ning or losing that counts as much as the way it is done. Play the game for all you're worth. Play to win, but to win cleanly and fairly. —Coach John McKay. ACTIVITIES CONVENTIONS SENIOR BAND Following a ten weeks' summer playing session, twenty- five members assembled for Senior Band practice at the be- ginning of the current school year. Before another summer Metamora will probably boast a forty-piece band. The fifteen new members will have earned their positions the hard way— from the ground up -- and will play batter music than they thought it possible for them to play when they began music training. The band played its first engagement the first week in October at the Fulton County'Fair. Later uniforms were pur- chased, and the band played their first concert in the new suits. The concert was staged during the Christmas season and featured Robert Ford as trumpet soloist and William Champion, tuba soloist. The latter, with William Heckert, also competed in the music contest held at Ada, April 4. The same boys played their contest solos at the home concert. May 2. The band contributed several members to this concert based on the work of that organization and the choruses. The band also performed a3 a pep organization for all the bas- ketball games played at home. Eunice Clark, William Heckert, and Robert Ford formed a trumpet trio to play a modern arrangement of Annie Laurie, and the band expects to do more ensemble work in the future. Mid-way in the summer, the band elected officers and a student director wa3 appointed: President.............—..........................Eunice Clark Vice-President-------------------------------Raymond Entenman Secretary Treasurer--------------------------Marilyn DeVerna Librarians-........-............................Kenneth Keith Robert Hall SENIOR BAND Second Row: Third Row: Shirley Place, Joyce DeVerna, Marilyn DoVorna Charles Shaffer, George Patteuw, Raymond Enten- man, Edward Smith, Joyce Stutz, and Carrie Ellen Ford.

JUNIOR RAND There are throe steps in the progress of any student's preparation for Senior Band. The prospectivo player first enrolls in a beginner's class and in following the completion of his work there, ho joins Junior Band. In tho first class he has learned to play by himself; in the latter he learns how to play easy pieces with his fellow students. After he has attained a certain proficiency in playing simple marches, v.'altzes, and overtures, the player is promoted to Senior Band, However this cannot be done unless there is a vacancy in the senior organization, that vacancy being base on how well the reed and brass sections balance. Since the summer session, when Junior Band tried to find a footing, the organization has purchased new books. These books have meant much towards our progress. New members of this group are Joyce Mohr, Dawn Potter, Robert Smith, Eileen Glanz, Lewis Cruzen, Joan Zenk, Rose Muriel Doyle, Frances Hudik, Robert Hall, Carl Dorcas, Luva Mae Addleman, Doris Heckert, Joyce Stutz, Richard Cottrill, joane Olman and Robert Kortier. BAND MOTHERS' CLUB Until 1940, Metamora dreamed of a band in uniform. But Metamora School plus the Band Mothers' Club made this dream a reality. Through the efforts of the entire community,and the guidance of a group of mothers, enough money was collect- ed and saved to purchase uniforms for the school band. Mrs. Fay Woodring headed this group of ladios, with Mrs. Eldon Ford serving as vice-president. The secretary and treasurer is Mrs. Fred Stutzman. Mrs. P. D. Cannavan and Mrs. Floyd Hall assisted in purchasing the suits. On election day (1940), the club staged a Band Tag Day and a pancake supper. In December, the mothers served the F. F. A. Banquet and a business men's luncheon, and the band played a concert, which helped towards the purchase. In Jan- uary, there was another pancake supper, followed by a don- key basketball game and a card party. The business men held another luncheon and the grade school presented an operetta, Tom Sawyer. Donations from the school and cluos throughout the community netted large gains toward payment and the pro- ceeds from basketball game refreshments helped buy more than one uniform. The club is now planning to buy uniforms for the new members of the Senior Band. They hope to have them in time for the Spring Concert. OPERETTA Tom Sawyer , an operetta in three acts, was presented March 7 by pupils of the third, fourth, fifth, sirth, and seventh grades. Don Demaline and Robert Drennan, eighth graders, carried the parts of Huck Finn and Injun Joe re- spectively. Many of the familiar incidents of Mark Twain's popular story were included in the play--Tom gets the bo s to whitewash the fence; Tom and Huck go to the graveyard at midnight to get rid of werts; Tom, Huck and Joe go to Jack- son's Island as pirates; Decky gives the picnic in the cave, and she and Tom get lost; and Tom and Kuck find the treasure. James Rush portrayed the title role supported .by Bea- trice Stevens a3 Aunt Polly, Maynard Stutzman as Joe Harper, Rosemary Gillen as Amy Lawrence, Katherine Riesz as Becky Thatcher, Don Demaline as Huck Finn, Robert Drennan as Injun Joe, Douglas Shank3 as Muff Potter, Mary Lou Taylor as Widow Douglas, Albert Cole as Jim (the colored boy), Raymond Bur- germeister as Dr. Robinson, Lewis Cruzen as Sid, Charles Demaline as Ben Rogers, John Cannavan as Alfred Temple, Clarence Cole as Reverend Walters, George Rice as Judge Thatcher, Dolores Garcia a3 Susie, Shirley Loar as Sally, Donna Lou Wells as Mary, Estel Feeback as Pard,Richard Sucky as Billy Fisher, and Frank Smallman as Johnny Miller. Lora Belle Wies gave an introductory reading. The choruses included a group of village boys who did a dance, skeletons, sunflowers, old men, and boys and girls of Hannibal, Missouri. The proceeds of fifty-seven dollars were given the bank fund. Mr. Barr had charge of the music; Miss Sterling direct- ed, assisted by Miss Stanton and Mrs. King .who coached lines and dances. Fifth and 3ixth grade boy3 and Glenn Davis, Kenneth Keith, and Floyd Blaine built the sets. VIOLIN ENSEMBLE Among the school activities we have the violin ensemble which has improved since last year. The members of this ensemble are: First violin,Marguerite Fuhrer, second violin. Donna Heckert, third violin, Alice Zenk, and fourth violin, Winifred Gunn. During this year they have performed at the F.F.A. Ban- quet and have accompanied the Jr. Hi Chorus (No. A.) Both of these proved to be successful.

The Mirror is truly a mirror of our life here at school. Besidos recording all the current happenings around school, tho gossip, and tho editorials, the Mirror startod a new feature this year. The Student Opinion column proved to be an outlot for many studonts with complaints, opinions and suggestions. Through this column, the girls finally succeeded in getting those bashful boys to danco at noon in the cafotoria. Anothor now foaturo in each issue was tho cartoon That’s Lifo . We want to thank tho entiro student body, tho toachors, and tho Mirror Staff, for helping to make our school papor a success.

At tho close of tho pep session.sov- oral free tickets woro given away to tho persons who drow tho lucky slips of papor. 12 O'CLOCK NOON Rosemary came down to see me one day And this is what she had to say. Tell me something about yourself Or what you keep down here on the shelf. What we have down here, we don't keep very long Cause every day we feed quite a throng. Now I have helpers who are very loyal And they show up 'bout quarter to tv elve. There's the Caswell sisters, Dora and Eleanor, Both quite small, but of real character. They hail from Michigan,----so far away With three others, Elaine, Erma, and Eleanor Mae, When Elaine is absent, it sure seems dead Now don't get me wrong or be mislead. She's the life of the party and we miss her about. She's just one we couldn't do without. And Erma, we wouldn't know she was there. But her type is one that is very rare. She talks much less and does much more And that's the kind who ne're are a bore. Yes-Eleanor Mae is one of the mob But she can do her share of the job. You all know Thelma and I know her, too She's a real girl and a worker true. She's laughing, attractive and very jolly, One for fun but not for folly. Rose helped a long time, but then grew tired She wanted to quit, and so she was fired. But she likes us still and we like her chant And she helps us out when our work is scant. Lula and Uva come down three times a week And when they appear, it sure is a treat. Now Eva, Corabelle, Mildred, and Betty Along with Harriet, Joyce, and Miss Dawnie Have helped me some--and it, I appreciate. Most on the days when lunch is late. Now last but not least, we have Sidia She's little and smart and oh so prettia I have never soen her wear a hat And she braves the cold like a pussy cat. You should see her rinse the dishes some day My how the dirt washes away. Now, the one who remains, vie all do love And she docs more than anyone does She charges, marks tickets and takes in cash Sho does all thi3 while sho oats her hash. It's fully fivo minutes sometimes between bitos Do you see how sho is always polite? But sho is and we hold hor in high rovoronce Nc ono else but our own Florence. Now that?s all I can write about the school lunches And I hopo this complies with what Rosemary wanted. B, G.

ONCE AND FOR ALL Tuxedo Place, the scene of the play is a small court between apartment buildings thst once were the abode oi the well-to-do. Here live many different types of people.This play reflects the hopes and fears, the j°ys en( sorrows of a small group of people.

FUTURE FARMERS OF AMERICA Arthur Drennan-----------------President Donald Leader-------------Vice-President John Burgermeister-------------Secretary Carlisle Jacob-----------------Treasurer Robert Hall---------------------Reporter William Donahue---------------Watch Dog L. W. Howell---------------------Advisor Since we believe that farming is not only a job but a v ay of living and since classroom work and farming experience cannot give experiences which will prepare us for some of the things which this philosophy implies, nearly all vocational agriculture classes organized a society to provide the civic, social, and recreational experiences. To tie up these local societies, the state of Virginia organized a state association and using the initials of the First Family of Virginia called themselves the Future Farmers of Virginia. Now we have a national organization. Future Farmers of America, 12 years old, and 240,000 members. The Metamora chapter is now 3 years old, has 32 members. We had a booth at tho County Fair;sponsored a vegetable show on Fun Day; WQ take an annual summer trip of 1000 miles, we have a basketball team; we had a box social and we entered a contestant in a Public Speaking Contest. We give a lottor to several of the outstanding membors. Last summer our trip took us 1100 miles through Michigan and took 5 days. Twenty-throe boys went on the bus. We camped at night, prepared our own supper and breakfast. Wq visited Lansing, Chobaygan, Mackinaw City, Souix Sto Marie tho Locks, Munising, Pictured Rocks, Petoskoy and tho Antium Iron Works. Our basketball team consists of Bill Donohue, John Bur- germeister, Willis Thompson, Floyd Knisel, and Jr. Clark. Wo had a successful season. HOME ECONOMICS CLASSES One of tho year's greet ovents for tho Home Economics girls was tho making of tho cheerleaders suits. Tho suits looked very attractive. At the F. F. A. banquet, the Home Economics girls wultod tables. They learned the correct way to wait table in case they wish to be waitresses. Tho Farewell Tea for Miss Cooper was prepared and served by the second year class. Everyone enjoyed it. KISS COOPER RESIGNS Near the end of the first semester our commercial teacher, Miss Marian Cooper, resigned to accept a position at Ross High School in Fremont, Ohio, Miss Cooper's resignation has ended almost seven years of service to Metamora high School, Before leaving, the Mirror Staff hold a tea in her honor. The editor of the Mirror presonted Miss Cooper with a remem- brance on behalf of the staff. Miss Mary Schick of uestorville, Ohio replaced Miss Cooper in the Commercial Department. SADIE HAw KIN'S DAY On Friday March 14, the Mirror Staff sponsored the annual Sadie Eawkin's Day. The girls were typical Daisy Mae's in short gingham dresses and hairbows. The boys represented Lil' Abner's in overalls and ragged shirts. That evening a dance was held in the cafeteria. Highlight of the evening was an auction of all men teachers, the auctioneer being Miss Helen Sterling. Tag dan- ces and circles provided all the Daisy Mads with excellent oppor tunitics to get their Lil' Abnei f. NEW YEAR'S PARTY On December 29, 1940, the Mirror staff sponsored a Nov; Year Party in the cafeteria. The program was carried out on a Night Club theme. Small tables lined the walls and waiters served coca cola, and other refreshments. During intermissions between dances, the audience were entertained by our own Eonnie Bakor, (Rosemary Rush) singing Oh Johnny and several other numbers. Mr. Barr also played a selection on the piano and Dawn Potter tap danced. A boys � q uartot sang tv o numbers and Miss Betty Jo Gibson rendered a vocal solo.
