Joplin 1880 THE CITY OF JOPLIN The city of Joplin, Missouri. presents an interesting study in progress. ln seventy-seven years it has changed from a booming frontier town to the metropolis of southwest Missouri. This growth has been quite as colorful as that of many of the larger cities. Fertile soils and vast mineral resources drew settlers to the district follow- ing the Civil War. Joplin. originally two mushroom settlements. called Joplin City and Nlurphysburg. was granted a charter by the state legislature, March 24, l873. Fires. floods. and transportation and nnancial difficulties failed to check the sturdy pioneer spirit of Joplin's oldftimers. The new town developed into a rip-roaring frontier mining settlement. and just before the turn of the century, it was known as one of the three row- diest towns in America. The Hrst church service was held in one of the many saloons. Shooting and lighting were commonplace in a town where money was taken lightly. Through the tireless efforts of some of its civic leaders and organizations. Joplin finally settled down and became a city of cultured, progressive people. 353 if N, Courtesy.

Long recognized as one of the world's greatest lead and zinc mining capitals. Joplin recently has emerged as an important manufacturing, dairy, poultry. and livestock center. lt is now a marketing and distribution point for people of the four-state Empire district. The city has an excellent transportation system. fifty-four churches, repre- senting twenty religious faiths, four broadcasting stations, twenty-six hotels. three hospitals. a comprehensive library, eleven city parks, numerous civic and fraternal organizations. modern facilities for water, gas. and electricity. and desirable social and living standards. lts excellent system of schools includes twenty public schools, two parochial schools, two high schools. a junior college, a business college, and the Ozark Bible College. lts location near the beautiful Ozarks makes recreation facilities convenient. The mushroom 'Atown that jack built has become a center of trade and culture for the surrounding area.

C. leave our alma mater to blaze new trails. as our ancestors did a century ago. The forty-niners are probably the last class to have an appreciable percentage of World War ll veterans. Our trail has been marked by our many outstanding achievements. True to the sophomore traditions, We have ardently supported and led all extra- curricular activities. Lois Rush and Paul Van Fleet made a straight E average for the Hrst semester. Milo Harris wrote J, J. C.'s first student handbook. We established an enviable record in sports, art, and dramatics. Jeanne Hansford was elected Crossroads Queen. We chose capable students to guide our caravan safely through the year. For president we chose John Dunlop: Vice-president Dick Fanning: secretary- treasurer. Carol Ann Newman Cfirst semesterl and Margaret Pendleton lsecond semesterl: and parliamentarian, Herman Harrington. These leaders provided the efficient, aggressive leadership that our class needed and appreciated, President Secretary-Treasurer Vice-President Parliamentarian John Dunlop Carol Ann Newman Dick Fanning Herman Harrington ADAMS.

We, the nurses, are organized through our mutual association with the St. John's School of Nursing at St. John's Hospital. This school has been approved by The American College of Surgeons. The American Medical Asso- ciation, and is a member of The American Hospital Association. Our activities include a three year course of theory and practice in nursing. The first semester is devoted to the preliminary period of instruction and demonstration. At the close of this period, examinations are held and those of us who meet the require- ments are admitted to the school. Then follows the theoretical work in corre- lation with the work in the wards. Each nurse is assigned a certain period in all departments. Thus we gain sufficient experience in all services of the hospital. Cur time at Joplin Junior College Was spent in studying physical and natural sciences.

LIONS WIN THIRD PLACE IN TOURNEY The Moberly Junior College basketball tournament proved to have an outstanding darkhorse this year in the Joplin Jr. College Lions. The Lions, given slight chance by the experts in the tourney. drew a first- round bye. They went into the quarter-nnals against a strong Bolivar Baptist College quintet who had taken the Lions twice during season's play. The do-or-die Lions surprised the Baptists with a convincing 53-41 win. In the semi-finals the Green and Gold tangled with top-seeded Moberly and dropped a 31-65 decision to the home team tive. Playing for third place honors the Lions eased past a game outnt from Trenton, 36-30. Nice going. fellas. SPIRITED SPORTSMEN GOLF: Srtlinq-John l'Vlcl.aughlin. Standing-Dale Hawkins, Jack Davidson.

New York, in attempting to save his niece from the importunities of an artist. Another problem facing Vandergelder is Ending a wife for him- self. He finally submits to the scheming advice of Mrs. Levi, a woman dedicated to making her own life. Mrs. Levi, who married once for love, now is prepared to marry the second time for money. Vandergelders daughter elopes with the artist. and two of his clerks choose the same day to brave the city of New York in search of excitement. Delightful entertainment is found in the adventures of these people while they pursue their heart's desire. All ends well when all the principal characters iind love in- terests.

P a t True flcvphad Mary Rose in the role of Mary, Mother of Jesus, led a capable cast of Family Portrait in picturing Christ's family as ordinary people who act and speak as we do today. The play begins with Jesus just beginning his 'Alife's work. It shows his brothers' ridicule of Him, the selfish attitude of the tavern keepers and promoters who capitalize on the popularity that Jesus' presence has brought them, and the be- trayal of the fickle crowd. The final scene which takes place in Nazareth three years after the crucifixion reveals that save for Mary, all the members of the family of Jesus feel that He has disgraced them.

C. we recognize the value of recording in pictures and writing events and student activities of the year, and of preserving fond memories in the form of a yearbook. The Crossroads. the annual publication, is planned to satisfy this need. The name Crossroads was chosen in 1939 because Joplin is the Crossroads of America and the junior college is a crossroads in the life of a student. It has become one of the major activities of the college. This year we sponsored the school's most spectacular queen campaign and coronation. and the nrst popularity poll to determine our outstanding students, and we present the Hrst yearbook without ads. To our editor-in-chief. Milo Harris. and the business manager, Kathleen Cearnal. have gone the major responsibility in producing the annual. Their supervision has extended into every phase of creating the l9-19 Crossroads. Creative artwork was designed by Mary Walker. as art editor. Fred Brooks and Loretta Gullette are assistant-editors. Our sponsors are Harry Gockel. business lchairmanhz Ada Coffey. literary: and Arthur Boles. art. ff' CROSSROADS STAFF EDITOR-IN-CHIEF ..A,,.,A,................,,.,....,,...,,......,,,,,,,.

' Here we are at the end of the year and at the end of the 1949 Crossroads. During the past nine months we have worked diligently to create a yearbook that would meet with your enthusiastic approval, an annual that will be a source of enjoyment in the years to come. In the distant future. long after we have left Joplin Junior College, we will seek out our Crossroads to find again familiar faces, cherished autographs. and records of the memorable events and activities that made our junior college life pleasant and profitable. We wish to thank the members of the Crossroads Staff. the faculty sponsors, the printer. the engraver, the cover maker, the contract photographer, and every one else who has helped create this yearbook. Weapioneers of the twentieth century now close the pages of the '49 Crossroads of J. J. C. Each of us will pursue his own course, and each will have the same goal-success and happiness. We hope you enjoy the 1949 Crossroads and will refer to it often.
