And she sure can sew, and oh, what a cook 1 Kenneth Langenderfer Kenny is a handsome lad. He never frowns; he's always glad, He drives a black Chewy, and to tell the truth. His favorite pastime is being with Ruth. Marlene Sanderson Marlene, with all her charm. Is really too nice to do anyone ham. But she seems to be afraid of light. And thus can be found with Jim at night. Helen Tipton Helen Carr is a Mrs. now. She and Jim took the wedding vow. She is a girl that's full of fun. And in our class she's £ number one. Jim Simon Jim is rather quiet this year. I guess it's because graduation is near. Don't worry, Jim; don't make such a fuss. They'll pass one and all just to be rid of us.

His ambition is to give Maggie a ring. He's a good looking fellow of diminutive size. With his black curly hair and big brown eyes. Carl Griesinger Carl Griesinger's not the fastest man on his feet, But to every woman he is a real treat. At ping pong and pool. Bub is a star; But when he goes fishing, he should stay in the car Eileen Malburg This younn lass is not very tall. She may be engaged to Louis this fall. Her greatest ambition is to be a wife, But she'll probably be an old maid for life. Jim Wilson Jim Wilson's a fellow who always looks neat. His kindness to others is hard to beat.

Rush as director. Mrs. Winkle is the typical son coddler who fears that hor wealthy son might have a heart attack . . .in which case his large inheritance goes to a cat hospital. Willie has a heart attack but in this case it is concerned with a pretty nurse called Eva instead of tho thrombosis of which his mother is afraid. It all started when Willie was sent, in a convalescent state, to the Bide Awee Nursing Home while his mother redec- orated their homo. First he meets Eva and then he is made very much aware of tho befuddled patients who believe thomsolves to bo Captain Kidd and Napoleon. And before you can take a deep breath, you are faced with a supposed burglary and kid- napping . . . topped off with a ransom note loft by our friend Captain Kidd, a sprained ankle, an elopemont, and many amusing and confusing incidents before the curtain comes down on a side-splitting ending.

Mumbo-Jumbo By Jack Barnard The three-act, modern mystery farce, Mumbo-Jumbo, was presented by the junior class of Metamora High School Novem- ber 2 in the school auditorium with Mr. Joe Goff as director. Dick and Pee-Wee, two college boys, arrive at Dick's uncle's house in the country. They are there on some myste- rious mission and are not at all dismayed when they learn that Uncle John has been called away to a funeral and they are to have the place to themselves. Not at all dismayed, that is, until they realize that their money has disappeared. At wits end, needing cash in a hurry, they decide upon the desperate plan of turning the place into a country hotel. They hang out a sign on the state highway, and as the night is a dark and stormy ono, they soon have a houseful of ill-assorted guests. That night a murder is committed, and one of the guests is slain. The Sheriff of Milburn arrives to take charge of the investigation; so does Mies Emma, the Sheriff cfHoptown, for the house is built on the county line which bisects the living room, placing the evidence in one county, and the corpse in the other. So involved does it become that Dick has to take over, and with the help of ten-year-old Daisy, finally solves the crime. The cast included: Mrs. Sarah Reynolds................

The theme Moonlight and Roses was finally chosen to create an exotic background for the 15-piece orchestra called The Chieftains from Tecumseh. The stage surrounding the orchestra represented the porch of a large colonial home. The moon on one end of the gym brought out the silhouette of a couple standing near a long stone wall covered with rosebushes. The other end rep- resented a garden with grass, stream, bridge, benches, and birds. In this garden, the sophomore girls served the punch. The tables were gaily decorated with rose nutcups com- plete with leaves, stems, and half moons and programs with matching napkins. Down the center were various forms of garden pixies and brownies. The ceiling was latticed with green crepe paper from which floated red roses. The junior mothers prepared a dinner of ham, scalloped potatoes, asparagus, gelatin salad, relish plate, rolls and butter, coffee, ice cream, and date bars. The sophomore girls serving wore summer dresses of white dimity printed with blue, peach, and orchid roses. Harry King acted as toastmaster during the program which was started off with the Welcome by Marilyn Welch. Karol Pupos represented the seniors with the Response. The jun- ior class formed an orchestra which played Rose Room. Mary Ellen Zenk presented the will by having each senior bestow an earthly possession upon each junior. George Tack sang Moonlight and Roses. Sophomore girls gave a skit and Mrs. King prophesied a great future for the seniors of 1952. SPORTS BANQUET The Sports Banquet, sponsored by the Girls Athletic Association, took place in the cafeteria on March 5. The dinner, consisting of creamed chicken on pattie shell, mashed potatoes, salad, green beans, ice cream, and date bars, was prepared by the G. A. A. girls and Mr3. Phillips. The sophomore girls put on different skits. Also the cornet trio and brass ensemble played. Mary Ellen Zenk gave the welcome and Marilyn Welch served as toastmistress. 0 James Tripp, Karol Pupo$, Kenneth Langenderfer, and Mr, Pifer each gave a short talk. The invocation was given by Mrs. LaVerne King. A dance was held after the banquet. SCHOOL CARNIVAL The Metamora School sponsored a carnival Thursday, May 1. The Music Club served a supper in the school cafeteria. Students of the school presented a program in the auditorium. Immediately after the program, a dance was held in the audi- torium. The following stands were in continuous operation throughout the evening: pop stand, fish pond, white elephant booth, novelty stand, candy stand, cane rack, picture show, and dart game. The proceeds of £520.25 will be used to redecorate the school building. GIRLS' INTRAMURAL BASKET BALL TOURNAMENT The girls' intramural basket ball tournament started with the seniors drawing the sophomores and the juniors drawing the freshmen. In the first game the seniors were victorious over the sophomores by the score of 21-13. In the second game the juniors defeated the freshmen by making 12 points to the freshmen's 11. This entitled the juniors to play the seniors for the championship. The championship game was a very close battle with the seniors winning by one point. The score was 16-15. In the consolation bracket, the freshmen defeated the sophomores by the score of 14-7. Then the freshmen had to play the juniors again. It was a hard-fought battle but the juniors won by the score of 19-10 to become runners-up of the tournament. BOYS' INTRAMURAL BASKET BALL TOURNAMENT The boys' intramural basket ball tournament started with the juniors drawing the freshmen and the seniors drawing the sophomores. In the first game the juniors were the victors over the freshmen with the score being 25-3. In the second game of the tournament the seniors de- feated the sophomores by the score of 25-17. This left only one more game to be played, the juniors and seniors for the championship. The championship game was a very close battle but the juniors came out on top with a 22-19 victory. This entitled the juniors to the championship and the seniors to runners-up of the tournament.
