'VIO Mmhwwmwb- QW-Ww'W W'MW 3 Page S1 Administration Today the Star Spangled Banner is sweeping the country. A spirit of intense patriotism has seized the heart of every true American. This spirit is no idle emotion to be expressed only in song and speech. Instead it is a warm human effort shown and proved by service to our country and undying devotion to the ideals and practices of that country. So we in Minot High School are trying to do our part. By giving up small luxuries we have purchased war stamps throughout the year. Many of the boys, both graduates and members of our school, have joined their country's forces. Still more have entered war industries, so vital to the national program. Last, but far from least, we have those who are doing their bit on the farms of our state-growing the grain to feed the man behind the man behind the gun. Minot High has the ability to do its party Minot High has the resources to do its partg Minot High has the will to do its part. Minot High Sschool WILL do its part! Page Eight Board of Education Mr. Franklin Mr. Piper Supt. White Mr, Liningtnn Mr. Thomas Mr. Lund. Soc. Mr. Gran, Pres. Golly, I feel like a new man! It just goes to show what a little paint can do for a fella. Here I was, just as drab as last year's Easter bonnet, and then-l bingo !-came the revolution. My walls are sparkling with new paint and my halls have brand new acoustical tile ceilings. Fresh as a daisy-'at's me! That, as you may have guessed, was the voice of dear ol' Minot Hi. He was speaking in appreciation of the various 'reanimation' jobs which have been carried on throughout our school under the super, supervision of the Board of Education during the past year. Surely every High School student has noticed the increased beauty of our building, but few realize the policy, effort, money, and general teamwork that stand behind such improvements. Every second Tuesday of every month this group of seven mighty men meet. During their meetings of the 1941-1942 school year they have worked unfailingly to improve the school buildings and grounds of Minot. The budget for this year is 3185,000, just 55,000 more than last year. With this money they have carried on the many odd jobs necessary to the well- being of Minot schools as well as those main projects which are the dreams of every principal. The policy behind this work has been a simple American war policy to make the most of what we have. Not only have the schools been beautified through this plan but they have been strengthened and made more lasting. At the present time it is only too evident how imperative such action is. Young American citizens need sturdy American schools in which to learn the American Way of Life. We are proud to say that Minot has such schools! The policy and effort of the Board of Education has seen and will see to that. Page Nine Principal J. H. Colton NORTH DAKOTA'S INDUSTRIES IN NATIONAL DEFENSE-OFFENSE-AND VICTORY I Along with the other states in our Union, North Dakota through its industries is playing its part in national defense looking toward ultimate victory. The staff of our Searchlight does well to stress the place which North Dakota occupies in helping in 1942 to preserve our American Way of Life, And that place is a large one. Our contribution will be chiefly through agriculture. North Dakota's broad fields of golden grain at harvest time make our state indeed the breadbasket of the Nation. This year, with increased acreage of corn, flax, and soy beans to aug- ment oil production, agriculture takes on an added importance. Diversi- fied farming-its stock and cattle raising-makes another contribution. Then, too, our ceramic clays demand attention and our mineral de- posits, including sodium sulphate with all its chemical possibilities. provide yet another industry in the common defense. Lignite coal, chief among our mineral deposits, is here in countless tons. In addition to its fuel value, there are its by-products-ammonia, nitrates, and explosives which hold limitless defense possibilities. Who knows but that some student, boy or girl, trained in our own high school laboratories, may pioneer a project to provide through our coal deposits a definite element in national offense. So, Searchlight 1942, your theme is a challenge. Our industries, di- rected by a citizenry trained in the fields of agriculture and mineralogy, can make of North Dakota's resources definite units of front line defense ever widening contributions toward Americas offense and prove con- vincing factors in the world victory-and peace-that is to come. So may it be! J. H. COLTON, Principal Page Ten Joyce Severson Secretary to the Principal ggkxtf 'X 35 Lois Kittilson Secretary to the Superintendent Superintendent L. A. White AGRICULTURE AND DEFENSE Military men ha.ve always known that an army travels on its stomach -a statement meaning that, while guns and ammunition are highly important, after all, the food of the soldier is his most essential equipment. In modern warfare it is not the soldiers alone who are in the war as in ancient times. The men who work at essential industries prepar- ing munitions and supplies and foods that soldiers need are definitely in the war, too. And so every farm that produces good food supplies is a factory for the war. And every one who helps produce agricultural products is in a keenly important defense activity. So here in our own state where we are essentially agricultural, producing tremendous quantities of the finest of wheat and other grains, of livestock and poultry, surely we must recognize that we can have and must have a vital part in this terrific world struggle. But back of every farmer and every producer, stand the rest of us- students, teachers, business men-who, like the farmer, must in fullest measure do our part, for in a less visible way we, too, are producers. It is we, with countless thousands like us, who as citizens, help cre- ate the most important product of all-good will, morale, good citizenship! L. A.

This council's chief task is to maintain financial support for all athletics. Mr. Colton, the executive president of the council, is the official repre- sentative who makes out all athletic contracts. Probably the most important job falls to the executive treasurer, who keeps all the financial books. M1'. Goehring, who also has the job of secretary, took over this job when Mr. Monson resigned to take a new position. The three student members of the Athletic Council representing each class are elected each fall. This year Ted Hooker represented the Senior Class, Richard Anderson, the Junior Class, and Jerry Florence, the Frosh- more Class. Mr. Mellem, Mr. Mackenroth, and Mr. Mills, as coaches of bas- ketball, football, and track, are also members of the council. As soon as the different seasons are over the coaches submit a budget to be approved by the council. They also decide on who are to get letters for the season's play. Mr. Goehring reports that the council will come out a little ahead in the finance department this year. Football lost about 5455, mainly because of the purchase of considerable equipment, while basketball made a protit of 3556. The Athletic Council voted to donate 10W of the gate receipts of the St. Leo's game, which amounted to 37.92, to the March of Dimes. The entire proceeds of the Williston game, 356300, went to the Naismith Memorial commemorating the founding of basketball fifty years ago.

Each activity has its own adviser who as a faculty member serves as both friends and councilor to the student body represented. One of the purposes of the Social Committee is to co-ordinate those activities so that conflicts do not arise. With six teacher members appoint- ed by Principal Colton and twenty-one representatives elected from the home rooms this committee is both efficient and democratic. This year the members have worked out a plan whereby any group wishing to make use of a part of the building secures a petition from the chairman of the council. The applicant then obtains the approval of the other members and presents the signed paper to the office for final approval. In this manner a clear and accurate schedule is kept always at hand. The social committee is just as necessary during these trying' times as it ever was. Keeping morale high and offering suitable recreation are both points stressed under the 'must' list advocated by President Roosevelt. The following are the twenty-one home room representatives to the Social Council: Bette Walstad, 308, Harold Potter, 307 5 Wilbur Moffitt, 3065 Bob Lambert, Oral English, Maxine Russell, 3025 Kenneth Parrent, 3015 James Coghlan, 123 Jean Spoklie, East Study Hallg Phyllis Cuffe, 2015 Dolores Isaaksen, 202g Dale Hammock, 211, Bill Severson, 2123 Ruth Romstad, 2133 Vernon Lee, 215g Mary Ethel Unwin, Ag Doris Meek, 183 Don- ald A.

The center in our hub of school life is the Principals Council which repre- sents the cooperation of the twenty-one home rooms with Principal Colton. Dur- ing each school year it manages the policies, programs, and special drives of the school. The Council sponsored two main projects during the past year. Through the Red Cross Booth on the first floor corridor it supervised the selling of WVar Stamps and Bonds. The first week of business showed a sale of 3151.70 in the War Certificates. By the end of the first semester students held Bonds and Stamps to the extent of S4,U0O. The most recent work of this group was the encouragement of model airplane building. Many interested boys responded to till the quota that the Government requested.

The president of each class selects five representative girls to attend this council and work under the guidance of Miss McKenzie. This group assembles whenever a special problem arises. Naturally the student body as a whole prefers to have school legislation come from the students themselves. It is in this point that the power of the council lies. The girls themselves discuss and render decisions on questions submitted to girls. As Dean of Women, Miss McKenzie does a good portion of the remaining work alone through private interviews that concern personal problems. Individ- ual contacts have helped many girls adjust themselves in Minot High. Still others help the students look toward their futures. New girls especially appreciate this confidential help. Friends, Romans, Football Men-lend me your gears P. T. A. Cast on Your Buckets Right Where You Are. This well-known line was the theme of the Parent Teachers Association in Minot High School during this first year of war. lt shows very clearly the idea of resourcefulness and initiative, the aims of the Association for this season, and the thought that good sailors can find what they want in their own community if they will but Cast on Their Buckets. The programs during the year centered around this theme. Many prominent civic speakers such as Mr. J. W. Bliss, Dr. Quinter M, Lyon, the Rev. Mr. Strahl, Dr. Charles Hoffman, Miss Eleanor Bryson, and Miss Mary Matula talked on topics connected with the main point of subject interest. Every speaker impressed strongly the projects and assets of our community which, like the fresh water about the ancient boat, are lying at hand available for some good use. At the final meeting of the year, Dad's Night, some of the mothers presented a timely play called, Mother Buys a Bond. After summarizing the year's work, the active mem- bers elected new otficers.

Needles and pins are handy tools for young misses today. Right now they seem to be having a ripping time of it. In Home Ec II class cooking is a major project. Nutrition and economy are points stressed in each meal. There are no 'hidden hunger' worries when vitamins are made quick and easy by four such helping hands. For noon lunches these ladies serve Grade A-and piping hot-hot dishes daily. This free lunch is especially yummy on those cold wintry days when half of Minot High is sta- tioned in the cafeteria during noon hour. Lorraine Comeford, I-Iomemaking Club president, outlined some mighty fine Red Cross projects for the club. By knit- ting and sewing, the girls ravelled off a neat bit of handy- work for the local chapter. Food and fun in the school cafeteria. Beaming faces and full tummies tell the story of a snowbound noon hour. Many 'long-walk' students eat here daily, so a happy atmosphere is essential. We refer you to Miss Grytness for particulars.

These are the ones who are prepared to pay the supreme sacrifice. Our prayers go with. all the men of the armed forces and more especially with those who were our classmates dur- ing a part of this school year. Among the four who have volunteered is Marvin Oothoudt. He is attending the government radio school at Indianapolis, In- diana. Already a second class man, Marvin expects to see active duty soon. No one in Minot High has forgotten James 'Happy Boy' Can- non. In his new role as a private: in..Uncle Sam's army, Jimmy looks like the typical American dolghboy. His place is in the mountain artillery. Dick Christiansen is continuing his training far from his Alma Mater. In Detnaitgailichigan, he attends a radio school as an apprentice seamen. When his training period is over, he will be a full-fledged.-bluejacket. Again we go to seag perhaps we should say under the sea.

Red Cross Council Following in the well chosen footsteps of many other city high schools, Minot Senior High has become a member of the National Junior Red Cross. The goal of this group is Service, and toward that goal the members have been working since December, 1941. Miss Fredericks, who is a representative from the Red Cross Offices in St. Louis, came to Minot to assist in organization and registration. With the help of Principal Colton, she worked out a system of home room Red Cross Chapters. From each of these came one dollar in dues and a member of the Red Cross Council, both of which were used to get the program of service underway. Once started this group has made real progress. By knitting. sewing, and administer- ing First Aid instruction they have accomplished the things set up. Many now have First Aid certificates which speak plainly for their work and effort.

They found that it was a coal in the stage between peat and bituminous. The burning qualities of the fuel, which were declared excellent, aroused the interest of the ranchers. This interest did not die. Such was the humble beginning of the lignite in North Dakota. Since it is so easily obtained residents of this state have made it THE fuel of their fires. It seems strange indeed that this coal, which is as common to the people of North Dakota as grasshoppers, will now be appreciated in other parts of the nation. This, however, may be the case if it is needed as a factory fuel. If lignite is called to the industrial war front, it may mean the introduction of a cheaper grade of coal in North Dakota. This sacrifice will be small indeed, since we know that we are firing the all important furnaces of production. In the meantime lignite remains with us. Daily chemists are working to perfect dyes, medicines, and other useful extracts from coal which will be helpful in our war efforts.

The Playmakers, under the direction of Miss Ackermann, were greeted by a full house. The net proceeds were S158.90, the Junior Class receiving 515.00 and the Playmakers 37434. The hero of the play Almost Eighteen is Eddie falmost eighteen? whose one desire is to go to New York to take a summer course in crooning. Eddie's one big problem is to get 5250.00 to pay his tuition so he can go to this school and be able to impress his ideal girl, Ann tDoris Emersonl. Trouble begins when Eddie copies an essay from a book in order to win a reward. His uncle, George tDon Kittelll secretly sends it in but is unaware it is not original. Of course, the women of the club sponsoring the contest discover the plagiarism and real trouble sets in, for this essay was judged the best. In the meantime, Eddie has written another essay of his own, which he sends in using another name. The third act shows Eddie in a very embarassing position, when the women of the club call on him, announcing that the second best essay would be given the reward money. The climax, however, comes in the discovery that this turns out to be Eddie's original essay.

This dramatic unit has forty interested and active members who wish practical experience and enjoyment from their stagework. Banded together under their adviser, Miss Ackermann, they present the class, contest, and one-act plays for the school each year. The acting body of the organization is only part of the whole. Helping them in every effort are the silent men or those who work behind the scenes before and after the play. Without the stage setting committee consisting of Lyle Aamoth, Bob Alander, and Damian Gergen with Mr. Kittleson as chairman and the lighting committee headed by Mr. Goehring and assisted by Billy McDonell, Blair Smallwood, George Feury, and Kenny Haugen the major productions now so well staged would suffer seriously. Each play given is usually sponsored by some other group. This organization receives 10c i'rom each ticket in the advance ticket sales. This plan has worked well for both Playmakers and the sponsors. From proceeds gained this year 18 new flats, stairway units. and six large spotlights were purchased, These long awaited improvements make for a more Snished stage appearance and will be used extensively next year. Page Twenty eight OFFICERS President ......................... Donald Kittell Vice President .... .... G Ioria Bakken Secretary ....... ..... J erry Corbett Treasurer .... .... P hyllis Gersting One-Act Plays Unusually popular with Playmaker audiences this year have been the one-act plays. The tirst of these, Orville's Big Date, was presented as the Searchlight assembly program feature and starred Joe Blaisdell with an all-froshmore cast. Elmer and Billy's First Date combined into a Playmaker beneflt assembly. In Elmer Basil Cross took the lead as the only boy in a family of unreasonable women. Senior Robert Dahlstrom was the center of interest in Billy's First Date, another comedy full of teen-age mixups. Every Playmaker was given opportunity to appear in at least one performance this year. Contest Play Deserving special mention again this year is the contest play, Peggy, which captured the only 'highly superior' rating given at the state contest in Grand Forks. This year's victory was the fourth successive state win for the local Playmakersg for their esteemed director, Miss Ackermann, it was the sixth. Each of these triumphs represents hours of hard work and painstaking attention to detail. Peggy portrays the wretched conditions of the poor whites in the South. The un- limited possibilities in interpretation make this production a 'natural' given good cast and direction. Doris Emerson won the 'highly superior' rating in the role of Peggy. Cast as Mag, Peggy's nagging mother, Madeline Cooley merited a 'superior' as did Don Kittell in the role of Peg's mountain suitor. Other members of the cast included Leslie Hoover, Robert Dahlstrom, Joe Blaisdell, and Richard Anderson, each of whom turned in stellar performances. The Senior play cast rests.

Senior Class Play A moon-drenched garden. soft mrsic in the distance. the colorful costumes of the Gibson Girl period furnished the setting for the Senior Class production of Garden of the Moon, a romantic, concedy drima. Miss Ackermann, assisted by Mary Louise Siders directed the play which they presented Ifrlday, March 8, at eight o'clock, in the High School Auditorium. The story concerns an old man. Gaylord, who, thwarted in love, lives in the Garden of the Moon with his memories of the girl for whom it was planned. A flashback swishes us hack to Gaylords youth, and we see h's story enactcd as it happened in the days of the Gibson Girli Betty Lou, the girl Gaylord loves, has a beautiful voice. Gaylord, influenced by Betty Lou's father, comes to believe that he is depriving the world of a great artist and for this reason refuses to marry Betty Lou. The story ends happily, and the Professor proves that such a thing as enduring love still eiilsts. The play brought 377.90 into the Playmaker treasury, and the Senior Class received 335.-10, inalsing ll total net of 25113.30 Aalry 4an't seem In llltllil' lmtll 1-mls meet, CAST Page Thirty Carol Clair - Katy- - - Allce - Gladys - - - Leo Saunders - Brent Carson - Professor Maxim Professor Gaylord Preston Dunn - - - Herbert Brown - Jasper Robard - Mr. Palmer - Clara - - Jenny - - - Isabel Freary - - Gloria Bal-:ken - Phyllis Gersting - DeLoris Tronson - Dulcie Trapp - - Orville Orbom Robert Dahlstrom - - - Don Kittell Richard Anderson Edward Richards - - - Alton Aaby - Wallace Olson - - Ted Bliss - La,Vonne Bond - Jean Mackley - Melba Heath Back row-Jennings, Alander, Richards.

Debate Club The Debate Club, with Mr. Larson as adviser, organized into two groups, the varsity squad and a practice squad. The varsity squad had six active members, namely, Dick Anderson, Alton Aaby, Madeline Cooley, Don Kittell, Va'oyce Olson, and Jack Pike. The practice squad had a membership of forty-four members. Appropriate to time, this year's topic was: Resolved That Every Male Citizen Should Be Required to Have One Full Year of Military Training Before Reaching the Present Draft Age. The Debate Club held regulai meetings twice a week. but active debaters worked over- time, sometimes debating every night. Financial wizard, Jack Pike, managed pecuniary affairs. The club killed two birds with one stone by putting on a combination food sale and a school dance. They also spon- sored a debate pay assembly. At the Northwest Invitational Debate Tournament held at Moorhead, Minnesota, in which several states competed, the Club won 500 per cent of their debates. They also participated in several practice debates wiith Rugby and Model High. As an award for the hard work done by this organization they won the District Debate Contest held in Minot, April 24th. Dick Anderson and Valoycc Olson gained personal hon- ors when they received first and second place respectively at the District Contest conducted at Minot State Teachers' College. The greatest honor came through Dick Anderson's winning the Burr medal as the best high school debater in the state. At the State Contest the Minot dcbaters, in a very close tabulation received third place. OFFICERS President ..................... Dick Anderson Secretary-Treasurer ..... ....

Crchestra Anyone with even the slightest understanding of music can fully appreciate the Iine music of the Minot Senior High School Orchestra. During this year it has played for the Class Plays, P. T. A. meetings, the Christmas Pageant, Baccalaureate and the Commence- ment progr. ms. The audience, however, ciinnot realize the hours of work. rehearsal, and instruction bc- hind these perfotmaiic s. Mr. Arvel Graving, conductor, rehearscs the group twice each week. Since most of the musicians are seniors of high standing this experience forms good college background, In many cases it may mean preparation for a life long career. All those who take part in orchestra may earn letters. These come in four sizes, a four inch for a first year member, a five inch for second year, and a six inch for three years. A special eight inch leiter is gladly awarded any person or group who receives a highly superior rating in the State Music Contest. A blend of some lrss common instruments gives an orchestra a special tone. Lately many of these have been added to the Senior High Orchestra, such as the oboe, marimba, glockenspiel, and alto clarlnet. The expert, handling of these instruments has brought noticeable improvement to a harmonious smooth working machine. PotlCI'-zlnotller great guest eonzlut-tor.

Choral Groups The sweet music that greets teachers and students as they enter Minot High School on some mornings is furnished by one of the choral gr0u1:s under the direction of Mr. Ellithorpe. The largest music group is the A Capella Choir of one hundred voices. Director Elli- thorpe chose fifty from this group to enter the District Contest at the Minot State Teachers College on April 11. They received a 'highly superior' rating which entitled them to enter the State Contest at Grand Forks. The A Capella Choir rehearses at 8:CO o'clock every Tuesday and Thursday morning. They have worked to create a sense of music personality among the students of Minot High. The high point of the music departments activities, throughout the last year, was the concert presented in the high school auditorium, April 21. They likewise made many Page Thirty-four Girls' Chorus identihcation samc as on Page 34. public appearances, singing for the P. T. A. Founders Day Program, the Presbyterian Church, and at many high schcol assemblies. The members of the music organizations have worked hard to provide a furd to bc used to attire the choir in vcstments. 'Ihey sponsored a pie sale, a numtex- of :ciao I dlnces, and their Spring Concert. A sum of almost S1C0.00 is now in the fund. The choir is maintained on a merit system basis and all the mettzbrrs who 7lCh5C'.'Cd the standard set by the constitution of the group receive letters. LaVonne Bond is president and Gloria Bakken is secretary-tregtsurcr. The Girls' Chorus, with twenty-five members received a 'superior' rating at the Dis- trlct Contest. They made public appearances. The musical groups did not limit themselves to the singing of semi-classical music this year, but also sang popular songs. The accompanists were Carol Jane Hanson and Gloria Bakken. The A Capella Choir and the Girls' Chorus made the trip to Grand Forks in a fleet of twelve cars for the State Contest of April 29 through May 1. The always refreshing Christmas story.

To accomplish this they have planned and presented programs, games, and activities to interest all Latin students both past and present. It is on special occasions relative to Latin that the club usually holds its programs or celebrations. This year, Saturnalia, the Roman festival corresponding to our Christmas, and the Ides of March, the day on which Julius Caesar was murdered, were two such festive dates. The initiation of new members is also an annual custom with the Sodalitas Romanas. At this time quaking Froshmores and other initiates are conducted across the River Styx and into Hades in true Roman fashion. Singing Latin songs, saluting the flag in Latin, and playing Latin games all are the other activities carried on at these get-togethers.

Homemalcing Club This year's work program of the Homemaking Club was chosen from the setup by the state and national clubs with which the Minot chapter is affiliated. The members decided to aid the Red Cross and selected a committee to obtain materials from that group. By knitting, making baby clothes, children's dresses, and adult night gowns the girls have accomplished their aim. Another project they have undertaken is that of supplying the Homemaking living room with drapes. This, however, gracefully takes a back seat fox national work. The Homemaking Club was organized October 8, 1941, and it meets regularly on the Hrst and third Wednesdays of each month. Each meeting includes an instructive program of reports. demonstrations, and exhibits. This year a special report was given on Ellen Richards, the founder of homemaking clubs. Such reports will be of use to homemaking students who intend to continue this course in college. May 2 was the date for the Homemaking Club Jamboree of the clubs from northwest- ern North Dakota. This convention was held in Minot and our club acted as host to the visiting girls. OFFICERS President ................. Lorraine Comeford Vice President--- .....

The library staff has twenty-six members who mend books, check attendance, file and type catalog cards, as well as work at the desk. Because the W. P. A. project has been disbanded, the Library Club members now do the book mending also. During an average day about six hundred students use our high school library. Usual- ly about seventy-tive or more students come into the library each school hour. There are also about forty-five students using the library before and after school hours. For the first time the members are getting one-fourth credit a year for their services in our library. For this credit each member must work ninety hours and attend the meetings of the Libary Club which convenes twice a month in the library on school time. This is the second year that the high school library has been open to the students, and each day there is added interest in it. OFFICERS President .......................

Among the larger organizations of Minot High is the Pep Club, which has gained recog- nition by sponsoring the annual Loyalty Day, Pep assemblies, and other programs to create enthusiasm and interest in the athletic contests of our school. A girl must be either a junior or a senior to become a Pep Club member. She must have no more than three unexcused ab:ences, The girls earn letters by serving on com- mittees, maintaining regular attendance at meetings, and selling a required number of season basketball or football tickets. They mett the second and fourth Wednesday of every month under the direction of Miss Shepard. Each fall the Pep Club members choose two junior girls to serve as cheerleaders. There are also two senior girls who are carried over from their junior year. The Lettermerfs Ball was the climax of the Pep Club girls' year. For this ball of balls the girls used an unusual theme. Everything centered around the idea of a black out. Clever handling made this theme unique among Pep Club balls. As a fitting close to the year's activities the juniors presented flowers to the seniors as a farewell token. OFFICERS President ,,..... ...,e........ - --Jean Abbott Vice President-h .....

Shorthand Club To meet the definite need for stenographers that our nation is experiencing at present, Minot High is doing its best to train a class of professional men and women to fill this need. Each student of the second year shorthand and typing classes is a member of the Shorthand Club. Through this organization students obtain special training and back- ground material to help them later in the business world. Among the highlights of the various club programs for this year were talks on business attitude and application for work given by Mr. Harry Simpson of the Employment Service, A speech on business manners, dress, and practical knowledge presented by Mrs. French proved especially helpful. Under Miss O'Connor the group may take shorthand dictation on Mondays and Wednesdays after school. Pins are awarded to those students whose transcription is at least 95 per cent accurate. Doris Shulkin, Frances Jylen, and Betty Bergmark earned gold pins for 100 words per minute. Betty Bergmark and Doris Shulkin also distinguished themselves at the Ward County Contest where they qualified to go to Grand Forks for the State Contest. During the last six weeks the members of the club went out to business places to work and get business training. Relative to this experience, Miss O'Connor said: I heartily approve of work experience as a part of business training. Co-operative training tends to bridge the gap between instruction and employment. It affords high school stu- dents the opportunity of acquiring the type of experience they need before taking over the responsibility of a full-time job. OFFICERS President ....................

Loyalty Day Twelve years ago, October 10, 1929, to be exact, Minot High had its first Loyalty Day. Since that time this occasion has been celebrated yearly, and it is looked forward to as J turning point in the year's social activity. This year a brilliant and well-planned program made the day a stand-out. At the all- school assembly Lorraine Comeford was crowned queen and given the royal kiss by Captain Ted Hooker. The coronation was followed by the usual program of songs, cheers, and novelty numbers. On the lot across from the school the Pep Club sponsored a bonfire where over one hundred and fifty students gathered to yell under the leaders, Marian Hannaford, Vivian Chambers, Virgene Hunt, and Jean Mackley. After the bontire, the queen and her attendants, cars, and students assembled to form a snake dance through the main streets of Minot. The snake dance ended at the College Football Field in the game with Devils Lake which gave the Magicians a 19-0 victory. ides high, wide and handsome. With the Pep Club in charge of arrangements, the Annual Loyalty Day Dance followed the game. As in the past a large number of alumni attended. The dance marked the close of another successful Loyalty Day in Minot Senior High School. E J , .3 , .,, ., x ,... -.V-1 ---' .

Why, from our journalism room way down on the main floor, It isn't all gay laughter though. There is a great deal of writing, rewriting, copyreading, news gathering, typing, and even picture taking to be done before the paper, which takes us only a few minutes to read, can be pub- lished and circulated to the student body. The responsibility of the first semesters work was a part of Joyce Brown's schedule. As second semester editor, Madeline Cooley proved herself efficient. With Mr. Reigel as adviser, the journalism class works with the staff to put out a paper once every two weeks. They publish a total of sixteen issues a year. Throughout the first hour class a journalistic spirit of informality prevails. This effects a spirit of cooperation and willingness to do everything to make the High Times a truly enjoyable and worthwhile school paper. Seated-Oberlin, Bildvn, Cuffe, Ave, Cooley. V.

Page Forty-four High Times Business Staff Madeline Cooley, Second Semester Editor Because the High Times subscription rate is far below the actual cost, advertising is a very important department to the High Times Staff. Over one-half of the money needed for publication is received from sponsors. Bonniejean Freund and Betty Garrett spend many afternoons soliciting advertising from the business men. Aftcr the business men consent, and the paper comes out, Don Kittell collects personally from each of the sponsors and leaves them a copy of the paper. The plan of distribution follows that of last year. Everyone in the school receives a copy of the paper. Each home room is assessed a certain amount ccmputed at 55 cents per student less those who have brothers and sisters already receiving the paper. About three hundred and fifty dollars is collected through the Home Room Budget Plan. Besides offering the students enjoyment through the paper, the High Times Staff sponsored a variety assembly and also three films on American sports. The proceeds served to bolster the financial end of the publication. After Mr. Vixo left the school faculty, Mr. Owen Jensen assumed the job of Business Adviser. Seated-Klinner, Freund, Mr. Reigel.

Searchlight Literary Staff Efficient, industrious, and capable are adjectives that well describe Betty Bergmark, the Editor-in-Chief ofthe Searchlight of 1942. Bettys capability plus that of the Literary staff and its advisers, Mr. Daven- port and Mr. Kittelson, all helped to make the Searchlight a success. The Searchlight represents a great deal of time, patience, and work by both the Business and Literary staffs. The Literary stat? Bmw Bm-wmrk meets every first hour, Monday through Friday, from the beginning Erlittn--in-Cliief' of the school term until the end of May. Early in the year home room representatives obtain a list of the students' names, cor- rectly spelled, with ping-pongs of juniors and froshmores and senior panels. The seniors also fill out mimeographed activity sheets on which they list the activities that they have taken part in during their three years of high school. This is probably the most tedious and exacting job of the year. All year long the photographers, Blair Smallwood and Harold Potter, were busy flash- ing their flush bulbs and clicking their cameras as they took pictures of school activities. The students write and produce the entire annual with the counsel of their advisers. With the exception of the Froshmore Editor all students are juniors and seniors. The Searchlight is a member of the National Scholastic Press Association, an organi- zation that rates annuals from all over the United States. For the last three years the Searchlight has received higher ratings, advancing from third class in 1939 rating to first class in 1941 in as many successive years, Top row lmltl. '1'ronsfni.

Searchlight Business Staff For several years now, the Business Staff has done its part in getting a higher rating for our yearbook by always obtaining the maximum National Scholastic Press Associatlon rating, Last ycar's annual received an excellent financial rating from this association. If it werent for the Business Staff, this annual couldn't be pro- duced each year. It is not only necessary to get pictures and stories, but it is also essential to have money to pay for the pictures, cuts. paper. and covers. While the Searchlight sells for S2 25, it re1llv costs 53.505 so, it is up to the Business Staff to devise ways and means to make up this difference. All previously established records were bettered by this years staff. They broke the record for the total candy and ice cream sales by selling over thirty-five per cent more than the prev'o1s year. Dur- ing the Class 'B' Tournament the Business Staff broke all Tourna- ment sales records. Besides this, they bettered the subscription sales. the advertising, and the accuracy record. The greater part of the work and responsibility of this group fell on the shoulders of Melvin Sampson Carlson, the Business Man- ager. Because of Melvin's efficiency, Mr. Wangen had little or nothing to worry about. Mr. Wangen said this of Melvin: He knows what Melvin Carlson, he's doing, he knows how to do it, and he does it! Bllslnfss Manager Mr. Wangen, as the Faculty Business Adviser, deserves a great deal of credit for putting the Searchlight on a sound financial basis. XVhen he first took over the job of Faculty Business Adviser, the Searchlight was having financial difficulties, but through his efforts the Searchlight now has built up a comfortable reserve. At the beginning of the year Mr. Wangen told his staff, You can't pay your hills by spending more money than you make. However, this didn't mean that he c0uldn't depend on them. Don't do everything yourself, but know whats going on, is his motto. Mr. Wangen has named Carl Opstad and Alf Mattson as Co-Business Managers to start next year, SEARCHLIGHT BUSINESS STAFF Business Manager ..,,....,,,,.....,,...

Composed of only thirteen select members this group is not especially well known, but nevertheless it is as important to the basketball games as are the stars on the floor. Moving noiselessly and unpretentiously between the seats, these boys keep Ted out of Edwin's reserved seat and vice versa. Punching tickets, policing the crowd, and generally playing handy man they kcip things iolling smoothly. To accept such responsibility only the best of those signed up are chosen. Other under- classmen are trained to take over when the seniors graduate. One of these seniors who will be sorely missed is Mervin Behrens, head usher. Upon his shoulders fell the burden of preparation and organization. Throughout the year he has done his work faithfully to the last detail, and he leaves the club with un outstanding record. The club director, Mr. Goehring, states that careful engineering is necessary to man- age crowds at all times. He says that only boys with the finest character traits are equal to the job, By the actions of the routers it looks as if thc Magicians arc in the pink.

A wealth of necessary vitamins means a healthy people. A healthy people means American citizens, and just think-North Dakota is partly responsible. Once upon a time the great rolling plains of this state were considered little more than good grazing lands. With the introduction of agriculture the good earth began to produce. Today 87? of the land is used for agri- cultural purposes-and that isn't hay-instead it is nearly all wheat which is grown on these huge farms. The average acreage of a single farm in the rest of the United States is 154.1 while North Dakota fields average 463 acres. Naturally huge quantities of grain can be grown on these farmsg therefore mills, elevators, bakeries are in operation to care for this grain. Modern means bring improved farming methods to help farmers to get the best and the most out of their land. This means an increase in produce and a better quality grain from which to grind the flour to make the bread to feed war-time America. The Staff of Life must be a strong and unbend- ing staff to carry its burden to victory. Page Fifty Football Ted Hooker was one of the mainstays in the MAGICIAN line with his brilliant defensive play. He was captain of the MAGICIAN squad which won the State Championship Title, and was given All-State honorable mention by the Associat- ed Press for his outstanding play all season. His team- mates honored him by naming him the most valuable player. Along with Hooker one could always find Kaastad in the middle of any action. Kaastad won the Associated Press All-State tirst team award by his hard charging and fine line- play. Kaastad and Chatfield were the lightest All-State play- ers to be seleted to All-State in many years. Chatfleld's selection to the Associated Press All-State first team honors was almost unanimous. The coaches who se- lected the All-State teams declared him to be the best run- ning back thcy had seen during the season. He distinguished himself also on the hardwood floor and on the cinder track.

In the annual city con- test Orbom won first in the Men's Senior division and also iirst in the team skating with his partner, Maxine Mondou. Minot High has a coming skating star in the person of Joy Vandenoever.

Doyle was the sparkplug for Minot in the Class A Tournament.

They wound up their 41 unbeaten season by capturing the State Championship and the Cham- pionship of the Western Conference. The Maroon and Gold opened the season by trouncing the New Rockford ROCKETS 21-2. Paced by Chatfield on offensive and Hooker on the defensive, the MAGICIANS showed very good opening form. Chalking up their second victory, the Maroon and Gold trampled the Bottineau eleven by a sore of 59-0. The MAGICIANS, much improved from the first game, had little trouble holding the Bottineau eleven in check. The Minot High MAGICIANS continued their winning streak by scalping the Mandan BRAVES 45-0 for their first conference win.- The Mack-men out- played the BRAVES scoring at least one touchdown in each quarter. The golden-clad Minoters smashed their way to a 19-0 defeat of the Dickinson MIDGETS. The feature of the game was the hard running and blocking of the MAGICIANS which was the main factor in scor- ing a touchdown in each of the first three quarters. In the annual Loyalty Day Game the MAGICIANS defeated a determined Devils Lake team 19-0. The Maroon and Gold found the SATANS to be their strongest foe yet, staving off several drives that threatened to score. The game between the mighty MAGICIANS and the powerful Bismarck squad ended in a 0-0 dead- lock. The Bismarck DEMONS were stopped by the stubborn defense of the Minoters, while they staged several drives of their own which were stopped only by the timer's watch. The game ended with Minot less than a foot from the goal. The Maroon and Gold were held to a 13-13 tie by the high-keyed Williston COYOTES. This was the first time in the season that another team had crossed Minot's goal. The scoring for Minot was done by Chatfield and Wally Cross.

Minot gained the right to enter the Championship game when Bismarck forfeited the playoff for the West- ern Conference championship. In the iirst period Jamestown scored a safety when Griffin's punt was downed on the one-foot line. Chatfleld was trapped in the end zone on the next play for the safety. Minot staged a drive from the Jay's 39-yard line started when Chatiield broke away for a 27-yard run to the three-yard line in the second quarter. This drive was stopped only by a desperate tackle by the Jay's center. A pass to Parrent put the ball on the three-yard line, but the next play caught Minot back on the 25-yard line. The half halted a Jamestown drive which reached Minot's nine-yard line. The Bluejays scored in the third quarter but the play was called back because of backfield in motion. They then drove to the twelve-yard line where, on the last play, they tried their only pass of the game which just missed Griffin's outstretched fingers. Chatlield and Tiller took over the show in the final quarter, alternately carrying the ball first on one side and then on the other from the 48-yard line to the four-yard line in four successive downs and a penalty. On a wide end run Chatfield carried the ball over for a touchdown. The try for the extra point failed as the gun went off. The Bluejays' line weighed from 2-15 pounds heav- ier than the Minot line, but through hard charging the Magicians matched and even bettered the Blue- jays' line play. Hooker played a great game from start to finish along with the hard running of Chat- 'field and Tiller.

Together with an undefeated season, they gainered the Western Conference Champion- ship and the State Championship Title, their first since 1935. The Maroon and Gold, although outweighed, were never outplayed, proof of which can be had by reading statistics on the season's play. They scored a total of 176 points to their opponents 15. The Williston Coyotes were the only team all sea- son that were able to score a touchdown on the Magicians, holding them to a 13-13 tie, In reward for this excellent season, the business men of Minot bought for every member of the Championship team a ma- roon and gold jacket with a small M on each jacket. These jackets were presented to the team in an all school assembly. The P. T. A. sponsored the tenth annual football banquet where twenty-one football players, their parents, and their guests watched the awarding of the captain trophy for the coming year to Richard Jeep Anderson and Wallace Weenie Cross.

Reserve Football Although many don't realize it, we do have another football team in High School, It may not play many games or get much publicity, but it does play an important part in our football season. Under the tutelage of Cassie Mills the Reserve football team is a training ground for the football players who will be members of next year's MAGICIANS in the way that it gives them valuable experience and teaches them the fundamentals of football. Sev- eral players were taken from the Reserves and advanced to the MAGICIANS this year. Harold Janz was one of the first to be advanced. Melvin Fauchald, Bill Severson, Jerry Florence, and Don Thompson were the others that were taken along to the State Cham- pionship game. Coach Mills only succeeded in scheduling two games. The Reserves won the first game from Mohall 7-6 under the College football field lights. Journeying to Kenmare the Reserves were beaten 24-0. With only seven lettermen on the MAGI- CIAN squad returning the sixteen RESERVE letter-winners will be needed material on next year's MAGICIANS. These sixteen letterwinners were: Don Thompson, Duane Peterson, Frank Mulvihill, Delwin Johnson, Art Esterby, Richard Colton, Gene Jordahl, Bill Severson, Ray Rogers, Jerry Florence, Lee Nothern, John Norton, Dale Hammack, James Hustad, Robert Alg, and Mel- vin Fauchald.

The contest was hard fought from start to finish with Minot trailing for three periods, hut, seconds before the game was to end, a free throw was made to put Minot on the heavy end of the final score, 20-19. The Mellcrn-men moved one step closer to winning their th.rd confecutive VVestern division title by shaking off the Dickinson MIDGETS. 41-31, in the last home game of the sea son. The Maroon and Gold clinched their third successive Western divislon title by overcoming the Bismarck DEMONS 30-25. The win also gave them a free berth in the state Class A touinament. Coach Mellem's MAGICIANS experienced a second setback by permitting the Williston COYOTES to outshoot them 29-27. The Magic-citians' first place in the Western division and tournament was not lost hy this defeat. The only out-of-state game was played against the BRECKENIIIDGE High School in Minnesota. Minot won 32-139 in the iinal minute of the contest. State Tournament The MAGICIANS' hopes of winning the state tournament. held .al lligniarck March 112, 13, H, were ruintd when the rangy Fargoans. averaging well over six feet, trampled them 213-23. The Mellem-men scored eight points in less than a minute during: the last part of the gaine played with the Devils Lake team to win 41-31. This put the MAGICIANS in line to win the cmnsolation title, The Wahpeton NVOPS, last year's cage winners. forcLd .1 31-123 xxin f om the MAGICIANS to cop the consolation title. lt was generally conceded that in this game, even though the Meiltm-men were defeated, they displayed the tinest brand of basketball played during the three days of the tournament. Two people with one idea Now, this is the way you l1on't just stand there, should have done it tlo something: Francis Rosenberg, Manager Page Fifty-eight Back row-Lystad, Collins, Doyle, Coach Mellem, Rosenberg.

Varsity Basicetbail Coach George Mellem pulled his MAGICIAN basketballers through another tough sea- son with a third consecutive Western Conference championship tucked away. The Maroon and Gold won 16 and lost 2 for an .888 percentage in games played. They scored 597 points to their opponents' 466. Before the season opened, George commented that prospects looked good, and he was right. Several of last year's players returned, and a couple of new ones were found who could keep their opponents guessing. A noticeable handicap of the MAGICIANS at the state tournament was their height which averaged several inches less than their opponentsg and yet they lost two of their three games by four points. This indicates an exceptionally well coached team which had to make up in skill what they lacked in height.

But since the first team always has first call on a player it frequently happens that in either the Froshmore or Reserve teams a key player may be taken for the first team. Since the Reserve team is really a training ground for future MAGICIANS it follows that the success of a season cannot be measured in number of games won but rather in the foundation laid and habits formed in the players. In these last respects the Reserves had a very successful season while breaking even in the won and lost columns. Froshmores The Frosh squad, coached by Cassie Mills, is for Froshmores only. The squad hung up an impressive record by winning nine out of eleven games with a total score of 367 points to its opponents' 217. The members played a brand of basketball that promises well for next years MAGICIANS. In fact, one of the reasons for the organization of Froshmore and Reserve basketball, is to insure material for future MAGICIAN quints. During the Yuletide vacation, the Cassie quintet emerged victorious from an invitational tournament held at Granville. The Froshmores trimmed the Model squad and outplayed Granville in the finals for the championship trophy. Back row-Hedahl, Dornfeld, Fjeran, Pritz, Nelson, Peterson Middle row4Coach Mills, Nagatoma.

League basketball was organized in 1929-30 by A. R. Monson to provide a chance for boys to play basketball who were not able to make any other team. This year Mr. Larson and Mr. Jensen had charge of this organization. Twelve teams made up the league basketball this year. The teams were topped off by the Hot Shots, captained by Elmer Lielke and the Tigers, led by Don Thompson. Each team played eleven games and the eight highest teams played in the League In- tramural Tournament. In this tournament, the Hot Shots defeated the Ravens, captained by Joe Bolyard, 28-17, for the Championship. The Hot Shots were also second in per- centages. The team with the highest percentage at the close of the games was given the awards which was won by Don Thompson's Tigers. The twelve teams that comprised the league were: Lielke's Hot Shots, Thompson's Tigers, Bolyard's Ravens, Fahy's Bees, Shekerow's Hurricanes, Eddie Smith's Americans, Myhra's Cobbers, Lambert's B. T. O.'s, Dixon's All Stars, Miller's Sooting Stars, Cuffe's Panthers, and Sperry's Sharks. As in every sport there is an All-Star team, so here is a first and second All-League team as selected by the Minot High Times: ALL-LEAGUE FIRST TEAM ALL-LEAGUE SECOND TEAM Alton Aaby Hot Shots Guard Joe Bolyard Ravens Guard Elmer Lielke Ravens Guard Roy Walters Tigers Guard Greg Lingle Hot Shots Forward Joe Shekerow Hurricanes Forward Bill Brand Ravens Forward Darrel Bowman Panthers Forward Ruben Johnson Hurricanes Center Jim Nichols Sharks Center The league basketball this year was very satisfatory to all concerned, and a great deal of credit should go to Mr. Larson and Mr. Jensen. Individual teams played more games this year than in many years past although the time was much shorter.

Coach Mills built his team about the nine letterwinners of last year. Westgard, Hamers, D. Cross, Lund, Chatfield, Rogers, and Lambert won major letters, and W. Cross and Harshberger won minor letteI's. Among the other meets the MagIcian cindermen took part in were the track meets at Devils Lake, May 83 Williston, May 15, defending their district championship title at the College Field on May 235 and the State Trark meet at Fargo on May 27.

Another Senior team of Dixon, Sawamura, R. Johnson, and Yanigita, placed sec- ond. The closest race of the meet was the 220 yd. dash ending in a tie between Westgard and D. Cross in the time of 25.0. Lund vaulted 10 ft. 4 ins., to place first while W. Cross came in second. Hurling the javelin 134 ft. 4 ins., Kaastad took first place followed by W. C1'oss with a throw of 128 ft. 1 in.

Cross, Yanigita, Hooker Early season warm-up Hamers and Westgard talk it over Western Conference Meet In a drizzling rain the Minot High School track team over- whelmed the three other teams to take first place in the Western Conference track meet May 1. The MAGICIANS showed them- selves to be in fine form by winning ten firsts and ten seconds. The Maroon and Gold had a total of 78 415 points while the Wil- liston COYOTES with 2l 7f10 points, the Mandan Braves with 21 1f5 points and the Bismarck Demons with 20 points were bunched closely for second, third, and fourth. Jim Chatfield took first in both the high and low hurdles, while Dixon placed second in the high hurdles. The time for the high hurdles was 16.9 and 26.6 in the low hurdles. In the time of 10.8 Hamers came in first and D. Cross second in the 100 yd. dash. Throwing the shot 40 ft. Kaastad captured another first place for the MAGICIANS. With a comfortable lead during the whole run, Moe Rogers took first place in the mile with the time of 5:2.4. The only man to clear the bar at 9 ft. was Lund to take au- other first for Minot. In the 440, with a time of 57.5, Westgard took first, D. Cross second, and Bowman, third. Lund, Davis, and W. Cross were in a five-way tie for first in the high jump with the bar at 4 ft. 6 ins. Minot again showed its strength by D. Cross taking first and Westgard second in the 220 in the time of 25.5. The Medley Relay team, composed of Westgard, D. Cross, Hamers, and Harshberger, copped first with a time of 4:25.5.

To qualify for earning a letter, each member must get 500 points by participating in sports. Four points are given for one hour's activity. No member may earn more than eight points in one day. Seven members received the pins which are awaidcd only to those girls who get IOPU points during their three years of high school. To start the year the old G. A. A. members gave a thorough initiation to the new members, In February about one hundred girls attended the co-ed dance. To climax thc years activity they gave a May Day Calico Ball. There are now one hundrcd and fifty- three members. Each year this organization sponsors such activities as blsketball, volleyball, bowllngr. softball, and tennis. Under Miss Bergo as adviser, the group sold pencils again this year. The pencis are gold with the home basketball schedule in maroon . The organization cleared over thirty dollars on this project. In order to keep the girls active in sports we tind that a Girls' Athletic Association is most valuable. OFFICERS President ,a...... -,-Bonniejean Freund Vice President ,,a, ,,,.,...

In that early era, round- up time found the cowboys, with their supplies in a chuck wagon, spending long days roaming the prairies. In the southwest part of the state we still see evidences of this roman- tic past, but the last quarter of a century has seen a gradual change from the ranch and the wheat farm to the modern diversified farm and the de- velopment of a nationally important dairy and beef industry. Our section of the state has a challenge to meet in the Food for Free- dom campaign if we are to satisfy our government's call to supply 515,000 head of cattle this year. This represents an increase of 105,000 over 1941. This quota is perhaps a typical example of production increases that are going to be asked of our state. During the current year a million and a half head of cattle, including 585,000 milk cows, will play an important role in bringing the health, security, and plenty of North Dakota's countrysides to crowded cities and the hungry peoples of the Allied nations. After we have won the war, we shall have the added responsibility of feeding the conquered nations, a task that will play an important role in winning a lasting peace. Continuing after the peace, we can help rebuild the health of the nations of the world to give them security and tranquil- ity-the tranquility of the herd lazily eating North Dakota grass.

It's a deep, dark secret, and you must promise not to tell a soul. If they learn I told you-whiz--off goes my head. You see, no one is sup- posed to know who the Representative Students are yetg but, since you promise to keep absolutely mum, I'll tell you all about it. A little while back the Senior advisers selected five students from the names of the top twenty nominations entered by the Senior Class. They chose these on the basis of scholastic averages, extra-curricular work, and personal attributes. No other group can boast such rigid inspection or such hard won honor. Now if you will just lean over a little closer so I can whisper in your ear, I'll give you the cream of the 1942 crop. Are you listening? GLORIA BAKKEN Keeping track of Gloria is a full day's work in itself. Without a doubt she is the busiest girl in school. Efficiency is the key with which she opens the door of each activity, and success is the latch with which she closes it, Gloria has attained top honors in nearly every field. A fine actress, an accomplished musician, an 'A' student, and an able class officer is this pretty dynamo. Last year she took honors as a piano soloist in St. Paul at the Regional Divi- sion of the National Music Contest. Winning the state con- test qualified her to enter this event. For two years she has been the alto of the High School Trio. In Band, Orchestra, and Chorus her work is evident. And these are only the chief accomplishments of the versatile Miss Bakken. As an accompanist to at least twelve different groups, Gloria has contributed much to the musical polish of other school musicians. I'm always afraid I'll start playing 'Mood Indigo' in place of our choir songs some day or vice versa, says Gloria, but that has yet to happen. Page Eighty-three JOYCE BROWN If 'Silence is Golden,' Joyce will make it pay dividends in friendship and success throughout her life. Blond hair, blue eyes, and a pleasant, dimpled smile tell us that we are talking to the ex-editor of the High Times. Joyce spent many a grueling hour on the school paper, and it is in this capacity that she is best known. She ranks among the best of journalists that have been graduated by our school. Joyce has also been an active member of the Latin Club and Pep Club. Her home room has recognized her with many offices. Scholastically she has maintained a straight 'A' average. The best way to typify this young lady's personality is to mention the fact that she was this yea.r's D. A. R. repre- sentative, To win this coveted honor a girl must exhibit in an abundant degree the qualities of dependability, ser- vice, leadership, and patriotism. TED HOOKER Take one cup of muscle and mix with a dash of daring and pluck. Sift in a good measure of common sense, fore- sight, and initiative. Beat this mixture to an iron-hand consistency. Now fold in a portion of versatility and talent. To this add a scoop of loyalty and sprinkle with drops of humor. Season liberally with the confidence of others and mix thor- oughly. Stir briskly with the spoon of high powered ef- ficiency and bake in a fine school for three years. If you have followed the instructions rigidly, you should have the following: One star football champ, one trusty class officer, one lead activity man, and one honorary Jaycee member. Roll the four together carefully, and we promise you a full, rich serving of one healthy, All-State Ted Hooker. Page Eighty-four DON KITTELL Meandering aimlessly down the corridor, Red never seems to have a care in the world. Don't let that happy-go- lucky manner deceive you, for here is one of the top-notch- ers in the Class of '42, Meet Mr. Kittell. A time speaking voice is this representative studer.t's A-1 asset. With it he can stop the show in Playmakers, make them crawl for cover in Debate Club, or knock them in the aisles with his oratory. On the Business Staff of the High Times Don has served as manager for two years, and he has really 'added' a lot to it. In sports he has found more relaxation and enjoyment than honor, for he, like all wise men, knows his limitations. An as officer of various or- ganizations Don has had his full quota and more, All in all, Don has what it takes, and his record to date speaks very well indeed for the future. GALE MCGOVERN The most prominent young man of the Senior Class hzs a good deal in common with our National President. Yes, sir, Gale is a third-term president for both his class and home room. When interviewed, he definitely stated that he does not go yacht fishing to relax, so there the similarity ends, and it is there that Gale begins. President McGovern has participated in at least twenty- five different activities during his three-year term. Orches- tra, Chorus, Boys' Quartet, Principal's Council, Prom Com- mittee, and Football are merely a few of these. Add this much to an 'A' scholastic rating, and you'll have the nearest substitute for perpetual motion that exists. Congressman Robertson designated Gale as one of his choices to take the Annapolis Naval Academy designation test. Gale garnered one of the highest grades in this so as to merit a Principal Appointment. Upon this follows the entrance examination. Final appointment hinges upon pass- ing this and the physical examination to be given after the close of the school year.
