OF 1 9 4 2 ANNUAL PUBLICATION OF JOPLIN JUNIOR COLLEGE, THE STUDENTS AT THE JOPLIN, MISSOURI. f we see a star of hope, a new and better world .... Our Future. OUR PRAYER Dear Lord, we lift our hearts and souls In grateful words of praise, For this, our home, where freedom tolls O’er the land on which we gaze; The land where Brotherhood shall rule From the east to the western gate; Where love for fellow man doth guide Our grand old Ship of State. We’re thankful that the men of yore Did scorn the bended knee, And gave to us this glorious land O’er which the flag flies free. We see it wave in Future’s breeze, A million years and ten. For all these things, upon our knees, We offer thanks—Amen. —CHARLES GALBRAITH Amid the present strife and confusion of the world, we, the Youth of America, pray for victory, for peace, and for happiness. We do not ask for martial and material victory only, but for victory in the realms of political and physical science and in religious and social philosophy. There are those who lament the passing of the fron¬ tiers. But though savage Indians and wild beasts rre no more, far more formidable frontiers have arisen. For us, as for Christian, enemies of the heart and mind . . . Folly, Greed, Indifference, and Despondency . . must be overcome. Let us, then, 0 Youth, grasp our Sword of Knowledge, don our Armor of Truth, wave high our Standard of Broth¬ erly Love, and march ever forward to our Victory. WHO’S IN THE FUTURE .

Attired in a stunning red and green jersey gown, the lovely Pigskin Princess, Patty Lacey, was carried to the throne in a football chariot placed on the shoulders of the team. Amid applause and great cheering, the crown was placed upon her shining hair. Thus our Pigskin Princess assumed her regal duties.

Sixty-six LET’S REMEMBER SEPTEMBER 1— Dear Diary: School has just started today and I simply LOVE it. Everything is just a wee bit strange yet, but I know it’s going to be super. The instructors are lovely, the classes are interesting, and the “dear students” are divine. SEPTEMBER 15—You know, Diary, Pm now on schedule, and classes and such have lined up perfect¬ ly. The other P. M. I trotted myself down to the Joe and Judy Mixer at the “Y. M.,” and the humanity was really in the groove, what with games, folk dances, and dancing offered in addition to refreshments. Lis¬ ten, Dear Diary, the most exciting things have happened . . . Bob Rice has been elected president of the Student Senate, and Keyton Nixon and Elroy Thomas are now heading the Freshman and Sophomore classes respectively. Among other things, Babs Bell now 7 heads that tricky Green Peppers squad while Speedy Nutz is leading the Ruff Necks. Flossie and Ray are still hitting it off, and Frankie and Bob are at the coo¬ ing stage, and everything’s well. OCTOBER 15—Honestly Diary, it’s been so long since I’v|e written in you but things AND school work are really piling up. “Killer” Hedrick came to school the other day and flashed around his slightly bruised knuckle to the oggling masses and was proclaimed as the Lord High Exterminator of Rodents . . . Keyton has ideas about going steady, and the idea is catching fire it seems. We really had a lush time at Clare- more, and guy, we not only beat the er-a-socks off of those Claremore wolves, the trip itself was absolutely rustic . . but yes!! Well, pet, I’ll see you presently . . . with a Teachers’ Convention offering an oppor¬ tunity for a few days of “rest”, we are really going to tint the metropolis shell pink. Bye for a while. NOVEMBER 14—Hail my leather bound confidante . . . it’s been too, too long since I last glimpsed the pure whiteness of your pages . . . don’t mind me, Diary, I’m just practising for my practically silent part in the coming production of the Dramatics Club . . “The Admirable Crichton” . . . Gee, shoot the jam to me, Sam, and have some more turkey. Thanksgiving is really on the way, and Homecoming is just aroun’ the corner. The future looks rosy, so I’ll try to forget the previous exams and settle down to the coming- fun. DECEMBER 8 - EXTRA—Well, Diary, I don’t exactly know how to put this down. You see, since yesterday, the 7th, everything and everybody has gone through a terrific change. The freedom, the happiness, and the peace which we, the people of the United States, tasted so freely, has suddenly been wrenched from our grasp. We are at war now. Today we heard President Roosevelt’s Declaration of War. I’ll never forget it. All of us were there in the auditorium, listening to the speech and thinking of dear ones who would be involved. Already we students have become more serious; we realize that we ALL must fight to win back our beloved democracy. DECEMBER 17—Greetings and deck the Halls, my Diary . . . Today we are dismissed for the Holiday Vacation. Patty Lacey reigned over our love of a Homecoming as Pigskin Princess and what with the cor¬ onation, game, and dance, the week-end was glorious . . . Even now we are feeling the reach of the war. for Chowning, Childress, M. Brown, P. Camfield, H. Masun, T. Prince, R. Schultz, B. Shafer, B. Wheeler and many others have rushed to aid different divisions that are vital for National Defense ... I will now hasten to hurry up the Christmas Season so I probably won’t see you ’til next year. P. S. The Beta Assembly was veddy impressing. JANUARY 15—For heaven’s sake, Diary, my head is fairly bursting because of my extremely heavy exams. The Christmas dances and especially New Year’s Eve were really on the beam; however, the empty places of those who are away made us stop and think a bit. The B. B. season is budding and also—Love. Stevens and Masters still engage in the sweetest battles and W. L. and McClarrinon are that way. Some¬ thing must be done about M. McIntosh . . . he’s driving everyone crazy with the way he plays the field a different date every night. FEBRUARY 17—Hello, my lacey volume . . . Valentine’s Day is still affecting me. On that night, everyone, including me, sprouted the “beootifulest” orchids at the dance. Ah, dear Cupid! I bid two queens . . . er-I mean, well they’re just on my mind . . . what with all those glamorous frills, Stevens and Kassab capping the titles of Basketball queen and Crossroads queen. And basketball has really been unique and it looks like a winning team. Assemblies at school have been most interesting. Credit must be given to the Alpha Kappa Mu’s and D. Rubinoff . . . Well, Cookie, I’ll see you when there’s more on the balk MARCH 16—Blooo skies . . O dear George . . you should have seen “Doctors of Rhythm” (by K. Cromer) . . more fun . . beautiful gals . . lush songs, it was colossal, etc.,, . . anyway it was fun, and I think the public liked our first try at a musical comedy . . .i . Alpha Theta Chi’s really pulled a bang-up assembly entitled “Cornzapoppin” and it was one big bundle of hilarity. Festival begins soon and everyone (from 6 to 18) is carrying a harried look on his map, but we know it’ll be a marvy, no? I must dash, love, but I should tell about the excitement in the Crossroads office when Elly Flick outsold Dale on advertise¬ ments . . . And I mustn’t forget, Diary, to tell how Huser “pinch-hit” and then “pinch-hit” some more for the Crossroads editorial staff. APRIL 15—Boy! Mendelssohn, his Spring Song, and I could surely get along now. Spring is here! And D. Rogers is now J. J. C.’s oomph man. Also, my adorable Diary, the Student Senate is throwing a big Spring Formal, and Tag Day is on the way. Leon must feel the spring ’cause he’s delirious about a little girl and is now going steady. The Easter bunny jumped over to Joplin, and he was a dream. Personally, tho, I adore brunettes ... I guess I’m prejudiced. MAY 14—My precious Diary . . I’ll not be writing in you again for quite a while. Much has hap¬ pened in this happy year and I shall never forget it. The spring banquets are under way, and “Adam and Eva”, the final play of the year, took its place among the outstanding productions of the school. Tentative plans for a Vaudeville Show and the Applied Music Concert are forming. Baccalaureate and Commence¬ ment are frightfully near, and we all are crossing our fingers and praying for victory and peace in the on¬ coming years. Thank you, dear College, for a completely interesting and terribly happy nine months. Gratefully yours, BETTY COED 9 2 CRO C R O _ ssroADS s R o A D S Fellow Students . . .

' ff cLoLf, tor tfim crfr 1942 Dear Graduate: As president of your power and light company, I want to be included among your many friends in extending sincere congratulations to you upon the successful com¬ pletion of your present school work. As you know, this company has for many years taken important steps in making your school work and home studying much easier and safer by promoting ’’better light for better sight throughout the district it serves. When the I.E.S. Approved Lighting program was introduced back in 1935 , this company was faced with the responsibility of informing its customers of the benefits of this new and scientifically-correct type of lighting. It was quite a task, requiring much advertising, personal contacts, and of course, added expense. However, these items were of minor importance if precious eyesight could be protected and saved. The company appreciates very much the response to its efforts in making seeing easier and safer for those it serves. If you, as a student, have benefited during your school years, the company is thankful for the oppor¬ tunity of assisting and serving you. It makes me feel that I have had a personal interest in your individual school work, helping to protect both your eyesight and health for the career which lies ahead of you. Thus, I ask to be included among your many friends in wishing you the best of success for the years to come.
