LaRue Rueter and Roger Dunlap reigned over homecoming in honor of the “M” men of 1953 and of previous years. Although we were not victorious in our homecoming game, both teams deserved credit for some fine playing, and the day was by no means a loss. The weather was bright and clear, made to order for the parade, an impressive, colorful procession of clever and beautiful floats and open convertibles. An aftergame dance held in the gym to honor the king and queen, attendants, and the team climaxed a happy, eventful day.

8 Look at all those happy laces! Do you know why they are beam- ing like that? The bell has just rung and they have all settled down to begin another hour of furthering their education. Whether that hour is to be spent reading Shakespeare, learning chemistry formulas or Latin verbs, or preparing future assignments in study hall, it is sure to be time well spent. MHS has long been noted for its high standards and varied cur- riculum. A student is offered courses ranging from auto mechanics to boys’ cooking, and from English literature to pottery making. All these classes are taught by competent, well-trained teachers. We can well be proud of our progressive education system. »
