Text from Pages 1 - 152 of the 1955 volume:

OUR ALMA MATER Sweet be thy memory, high school of ours. Pair be thy destiny, fadeless thy flowers. Hearts that nave loved thee; have won in life's fight. Names that we honor, our standard holds bright. Our Metair.ora, 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. DE DICATION His friends—they are many. His foes—are there any? This could apply to only one person, and with this in mind, we dedicate our Meteor to Mr. Lewis Cross. Under his patience and friendship more boys have taken an interest in baseball and basketball. We, the Meteor Staff of 1955, appreciate the kind co-operation of Mr. Cross in advising us through our junior and senior years. u - - - - u u L 1 - 1 1 SEATED: Ila Gleckler, Art Editor; Rose Marie Loar, Senior Editor} Jacqueline Duncan, Activity Reporter; Lydia Patek, Editor- in-chief; Betty Cambal, Assistant Editor; WiLma Welc Senior Editor; Beth Smith, Class Editor; Donald Weis, Sports Editor; Arlene Nykodyn, Activity Reporter.

Mrs. Herman Rush was the director. Take Your Medicine was a three-act farce taking place in a small private hospital. Uncle Henry, a wealthy man who was president of a large bank, was a patient in the hospital; when his niece Angela stopped in to see him and introduced her fiance. Dr. William Jackson, he promised her 0,000 for the first life he saved. Since Uncle Henry hated teachers and liked doctors, no one told him Dr. Jackson was a doctor of philosophy and not a medical doctor. Weil, the real doctor of the hospital had gone to Chicago leaving the crabby head nurse. Miss Holt,in charge. While he was gone, one thing after another happened. Dr. Jackson was called on to pull a chicken bone out of a patient's throat, which he succeeded in doing with sugar tongs. Then a patient developed appendicitis. Dr. Jackson attempted the operation with an ordinary butter knife. Things finally got under control but not until after murder was attempted by a demented patient. The cast was as follows: Henry K.

And Maw just laid down the law and told him that he must find husbands for them. So he grabbed the shotgun off the wall and decided to “wing them and then pick out the buckshot, but the gals objected to his idea. About that time Roland Maxwell and his aunt were forced to stay overnight so Paw decided to start a feud and “wing11 the stranger in the excitement. From then on things became more complicated by the minute as a fake feud raged and finally plans were made for a big wedding. Paw forced Roland to the altar but just in the nick of time he was res- cued. However, Paw did manage to marry off a couple of his problems before the final curtain. CAST Paw Belsnickle. . . .
