Through their energetic planning and cooperation, we feel that our school has developed into a modern and up-to-date educational plant with a program worthy of community backing and respect. HS - I hgiclzoof .fdclminiafrafion if Secretary Miss Nora Margaret Bernardi Principal Mr. Jack Broadhurst It is a primary essential in the thinking and actions of our students, our faculty, and our school patrons to formulate a philo- sophy as to what constitutes a sound educational program. This school year of 1949-SO has been a milestone marking defin- ite progressive steps forward, where oy the school program is more itable for the individual needs of each student. The students su and faculty are greatly indebted to all of the school patrons who t 1 the s ecial bond made it possible by their financial suppor n p election, to redecorate and equip our present school plant. This action by such a large group of interested personsis an indication of trust and confidence which will undoubtedly lead to a stronger educational program for each and every student within our school district.

There will be more parties, games, and tests. It is up to those spirited under classmen to carry on what you so gallantly upheld for the past short while. In behalf of the Class of 1950, I extend to you fresh- men, sophomores, juniors...the torch of knowledge. Keep it always, lighting the dark abyses of the future with a glow that shall never fade. P.-...W QQVUQ, enior 661.44 X ' 'E .j'fli4t0 ?f .- ' mm Four years ago twenty mischievous little frosh entered MRHS, with bright eyes trained toward that wonderfuldlplomain the seemingly far distant future. They were led into the halls of learning by President Danny Chandler, Vice- President Pat McDermott, and Secretary-Treasurer Alva Smith. Being well re- presented in glee club and chorus, they also sired a flrst stringer in foot- ball, Danny Chandler, with Chuck Proffitt taking lettering honors in basket- ball. Plentycf pep and vlgorvere supplied by Betty Norris and Jennie Hayden, cheer leaders. Their second year saw them growingmp and no longer taunted as uGreeniesF Some of the old faces were missing in the crowd, and Gene Gulson, Alberta Stacv, Glen Cooper, and Pobert Hale were seen amoung the group. New class leaders were President Dave Henderson, Vice-President Betty Norris, Secretary Jennie Hayden, and Treasurer Billie Lanning. Again chorus and glee club was swelled with the lusty voices of the sophles, with Jennie Hayden tahing part ln drum corps. The year 1911.7-118 saw Chandler and Profflttlnlhe pigskin parade, with Alva Smith, Gene Gulson, Joe Godin, and Dave Henderson taking reserve letters. Sponsors that year were Mrs. Ruth Doty and Mr. Jack Broadhurst. How the time flies. Take out a sheet of notebook paper and sharpen a pencil, and the little people have grown up, regular juniors too. Two new faces, Florence Parrish and Robert Tarter, appeared, with Chandler and Napier leaving before the end of the year. In the reins were President Dan Chandler Vice-president John Grasso, Secretary Florence Parrish, and Treasurer Robert Tarter. The entire male population, it seemed, turned out for sports, with Cooper, Thayer, McDermott, Henderson, Guison, and Proffitt starring on the first string and being ably supported by substitutes Morey Grant, Joe Godin, Earl White, Alva Smith, and Robert Hale. Those receiving honorable mention in the League included Guard McDermott and End Proffitt, with many congrats being tossed their way. Basketball hustlers Gulson, Cooper, and Grassoverew awarded first team letters. Ffficient subs McDermott, Godin, Smith, Grant, Hale. and Tarter warmed the reserve bench. The boys of the long deep breaths in track were Guison, Thayer, and Tarter. The highlight of the year, as always, proved to be the junior-sen1orlnn- duet, which followed an Indian theme, even to a center teepee and Indian braves and maidens serving the wonderful food. Earl Jam1son's Melodic King Band provided the dream music for dancing. Mrs. Nellie Good and Mrs. Treva Geler were sponsors of this grand event. At last the caps and gowns loom just below the horizon, justteyond reach of the eager hand, and the solumn day of 'Pomp and Circumstancen is fast ap- proaching. And a new face will be marching down the aisle with all the old buddies in the form of Eugene Walker. Boys playing their last game for dear old MRHS and lettering were Grant, Gulson, Cooper, Henderson, Tarter, Smith, Thayer, Proffitt, McDermott, Godin, and White. Dribbling the all-important ball down the court were Guison, Cooper, Smith, Grasso,-and Proffitt, all first teamers, with Grant and Godin receiving reserve tags. Jennie Hayden turned actress with her role as nMarmee' I1 'Llttlehbmenf Chorus saw Hayden, TB-Pier, BGVDCOCX. and 0b6FZ3l'l exercising the vocal chords, md Hayden again ex- ercising the legs in Drum Corps. The most triumphant victory of the four gruelllng years proved to be the election of Queen Norma Brenner, and King Bill Thayer to reign over the yearbook. Mr. Jack Broadhurst was sponsor dur- ing this eventful and fun-filled year. 'fyaasaaafwaffw t X : , -e' - J Q, 's ROBERT MERLE TAHTER CHARLES LEE OBERZAN .Xb .

Ah me, I'm beginning to feel a little ancient. All of these beautiful decorations take me back...back to the time when we broke our backs, drove nails into our fingers, smashed our thumbs, and generally pulled our hair in an attempt to make Nthis year's Junior-Senior Banquet the best ever.' But that figure '25n, it sort of makes you shiver, doesn't lt? That's a good many years my friend. Who are those cute little children over there? Oh, you don't mean to tell me they belong to Bob and Jennie? And twins too! Whoever would have thought it? Oh, Bob is a Wall Street financier? My, they have done well for themselves, haven't they? And over there...that attractive blonde, well, it is Norma Brenner. I have heard that she married a rancher who had plenty of money. I always knew Norma would make good, no matter where she happened to be. No, my eyes surely must be weaker than I thought. Those two gray-haired gentlemen over there with the long beards..Glen Cooper and Bill Thayer??? Impossible! Not living in a cabin on Neosho River? And making a good living too? Well, I guess Lady Fate can deal well, if she wishes. I hear Dave Henderson is a trainer now that he has lost his title to a younger boxer. I know, I remember theeports headl1nes.those three years Dave was Worlds' Champ, and how I used to say to my wife, WI knew him when...n You don't mean to tell me! No,3t just couldn't be! The dairy business? Not Eugene! Well, I guess onlytne love of a good woman could change his mind from his tavern. Fine old tavern it was too. I was in there for acnuple of hours about two years ago. Had lots of atmosphere. You know I've been eyeing that centerpiece for a longtime now. Couldn't have chosen a more appropriate one than that huseftiered'cake, could they? I'll just have to have a BIG slice of that confection. Oh, I know twenty- five years hasn't exactly give me a wasp waist, but st1ll...what's a Quarter of a century when there is still three-quarters to go? I believe I'll just sit down over here. One thing about middle age... your feet aredt quite the same ones that used to push the pebbles around down at the old stream. I should say not. Oh, excuse me sir, I d1dn't know this was your seat. Pat!!! John Robert!!! You old rogues. What in the world are you trying a hand at now? Not salesmansh1p?? Oh me, that's the best yet, especially when I remember how you used to sell your teachers.. fMay their souls rest in peacell Who's the boss, by the way? You don't say! Little Alva, the world's youngest millionaire. Is that really true? He's certainly hit the headlines the past few years. Say, have you fellows seen anywf the famed K.U. games lately? You know I just knew that college would spot the map when Charlie Proffitt took over as head coach! Really has a way with the lads, I hear. You say this meal was provided by one of our fellows? Now who on earth could it possible be? Oh no, not Morey! The best dry farmer in these parts well, what do Say, you fascinate me, here, Oh now, you know? know I've beenreading la'ely. These little booksl carry around and incidentally, I learn quite a bit too. The latest I have this couldn't posslbleln true...I never thought that Don Sharp was the pen name of Donald Babcock. Wonderful man,1 at author. Really tells a story you can't get up and leave. No wonder the subject of his book was Boeing Aircraft Plant and its Vice-president Louie Capute. Buddies from way back, I should hope to say. And why not, with both of them being fostered by good old Mineral High? Say, I was downtown for a few minutes before hiking up here, and some of the local gossip says the best grade principal they have ever had is little old Earl White. Wouldn't that get youl Neverihought Earlwould teach school, and make a big name for himself, at that. How times do change!! Oh, If my Broadway audience could only see this old Gene now. Well it looks like everyone is here. No, there is an empty place. The card says Joe Godin guess what the general says goes with Captain Joe.

Most capable leaders include President Clarence Creser, Vice-President Gwenith Carlson, Secretary Darlene Scott, and Treasure Mary Alice Smith, ably abetted by sponsor Mrs. Nellie Good. The highlight of the year was the proud presentation of the annual Play, 'The Goof From Gophers Gulch,' starring Betty Yapher, Clarence Creger, Burley Jo Potocnlk, Mary Rose Ledford, Mary Alice Smith, Darlenelhmble, Frankie Joe Palumbo, Audry Hallam, Josie Lee Carplno, and Joanne Cosner. The majority of the girls participated in chorus and drum corps, with members of the band including Joanne Cosner, Shirley Jo Potocnik, Gwenith Carlson, Betty Yapher, Rosemary Lane, and Darlene Scott. Again the pep poured forth from the juniors, with paractlcallyevery girl claiming membership in the pep club,snd cheer leaders from this section being Audry Hallam, Shirley Jo Potocnik, and Joanne Cosner. Audry Hallam took the highstepping honors as Drum Corps Major, ably assisted by Majorettes Gwenith Carlson and Betty Lou Yagher. Popularity took its toll when Ronnie Grubbs and Mary Rose Ledford were selected as candidates for the royal position of King and Queen of The New Crusader. Sonny Smith and Carmen Boccia did the pigskin honors for the group, but due to injury Boccia was forced to drop atheletics during football season. The yearly thrill of everyone's life, that Junior-Senior Banquet, proved to be an even more astounding success than anyone dreamed. . 4 ' e K' 11: 1 K A sir.. mv- ,Q . 2 ? it 0 be , Z' Meera Clarence Crerer Darlene Scott Gwenlth Carlson Mary Alice Smith President Segretary Vice-President Treasurer 3 Q' MQC1 sgyi 19 fm Q.

Since that time Mardelle Smith has dropped by the way. The backbone of the class included President Anna Marie Proffitt, Vice- presldent Jack Ward, Secretary Katherine Lane, and Treasurer Chuck Eatalia, most capably guided by sponsor Mr. William J. Graver. The class participated widely in music circles, with special applause going to Anna Marie Proffitt and Kathrine Lane, very attractive little major- ettes. Pep poured forth from one little Corrine Wilson as cheerleader. The diamond-crown-and-ermine-robe honers went to Anna Marie Proffitt and Ted Parsons, King and Queen candidates. Some wonderful sportsmen are anticipated from this tiny group if one can judge from Fred Smirl, Ted Parsons, Jack Ward, and Chuck Batalia, who really showed up well in both basketball and football. -N Q .

Football fans saw John Grant, Harold Hayden, John Justice, Art Batalla, Loren Smith, Lloyd Henderson, Billy Norris, Dale Tarter, Walter Thomas, Jimmy Young, and Emery Zwahlen holding that old bench and soaking up knowledge for years to come. They did quite well in Bees too. Basketball wouldn't have been comp- lete without Herbert Walker, Armon Goffoy, John Justice, Billy Norris, Dale Tarter, Harold Hayden, and Walter Thomas. And you can be sure there's a championshipteam coming up in a couple of years. Honor, The Honor,was bestowed upon Emily Ruth Saala when she was Football Queen by the 19b9-1950 squad.

Twenty-eight boys reported, including thirteen lettermen, also a new coach, Joe Nichols, with new ldeas and the want to win. The boys worked hard at practice and September 23, they won over Galena 6 to O, in a thrilling exposition. September 29, the Mineral Wildcats went on to play the Erie Red Devils, a League game, and lost to them 12 to O. Quite depressed by a League loss they were determined to make u with a win over Minden. This they did in a tilt by the score of 35 to . This made their League standings one game lost and one game won. October lh, our team went to Oswego to play the Neosho Valley League Champs, the Indians de- feating us 27 to O. after a hard fought battle.
