UW17... an itl- l'llYSlt'S t'l..XSS This year's physics class is under the 'lirection of Mr. Richard ti. l.ester and consists oi eleven hoys. This year the hoys studied electricity, light, atomic energy, heat, sound, and mechanics. Most of the hoys niade radios for their class projects. The other hoys repaired radios, made phono- graphs or worked other experiments. 1.1111 t.lzIN l',ll.Xl , bhllzht lu lfor soine unknown reason, every girl in high school wanted to take general science this year. Could it he the teachers? XVe will never know, hut Mr. Rohert Saunders and Nlr. Talkin are doing a line joh ol teaching this snlmject to the freshinen. General science is the basis of all high school science courses, taking the place of physiology which was taught in foriner years. XVe feel eer- tain that some renowned scientist will undoubtedly coine from these seven classes taught hy such ahle and outstanding instructors. 118.- Cl l lihl l STRY Sizzle! Hang! l-'opl Wvhooshl XVhat was that? Did someone drop an atoniic-stink hoinh on the second floor? No, nothing like that. lt's just the students in the chemistry classes doing an experiment. These classes are taught hy Mr. l.ester during the fourth and fifth periods. The fourth period class does its lahoratory work on Tuesdays and lfridays. while the lifth period class does its laboratory work on XVednesdays and Fridays. The rest of the week is given over to filling in the workhook, recitation, and dis- cussion. Drop around and see us some time. B lOl .GGY Collecting leaves in the fall and working on the conservation project during the winter were the two hig events in the life of the hiology classes. The three classes, under the direction of Miss Kathryn Rowley, gathered leaves as the preceding classes have done. Their new project which took several weeks was the conservation work. llesides the special projects the classes did all the regular hiology work such as dissecting aniinals, wornis, etc. l'.Xl,1LlSH Upon entering high school, we resigned our- selves to at least three years of English. which are required. However, in the first year under the in- struction ot' M rs. Robert Saunders, Miss Kathryn Rowley, or Mrs. Scott Shrode, we found that linglish actually proved interesting. Not only did we do our practice sheets diligently and make book reports, but we also studied literature and were captivated by Treasure Island. On becoming a sophomore, directed by Miss Mae Anderson or Mrs. Darroll Chapman, we breathlessly read A Tale of Treo C'ifies by the innnortal Dickens. We were introduced to Shakespe.1re's works in the tragedy Macbeth our junior year under Miss Florence Dahlberg or Miss Anderson. Speeches and vocabulary work also were part of class. At last a senior, perhaps choosing another year of English, we were given our final high school instruction by Miss Dahlberg. ....19.. .XIJXQXNCAICIJ LTIVICS Miss Ili-adford, Mr. Swanson, and Mr. Mings A- these were the civics teachers for this lirst semester course. There were four classes and countless students involved. Speakers, trips, movies, and learning - all were included in the repertoire of these classes. 'lliere is no use going any farther with this write-up, because those of you who have had it know of it, and since it is a required course the rest of you will soon find out about it. XYOlil.lJ HISTORY Hur motto isn't loin the Navy and see the world , but in Mr. lsermann's XVorld History classes we do lind out about many interesting and worthwhile facts on how the other fellow lives and thinks. SOCLXI, PROl3l.lCMS XYould you like to know why you are going to school? Yes. even .Iuniors and Seniors wonder at times. but this problem will be solved when you take Social l'roblems under the instruction of Nliss Bradford or Mr. Swanson. Social Problems prepares you for the times when you are confronted with problems pertain- ing to luunan relations and teaches you to think and reason these problems out for yourself. Miss Bradford takes her students on a tour around our interesting city and they visit var- ious chnrches in our town. Also they enjoy many class parties. lt is a yery different subject, and they make it quite interesting. L'. S. H I STORY Do you know the dates of the Declaration of lndependence, the Revolutionary XVar, or the First VVorld XVar? NVell, if you don't now, you will soon learn. The time will be during your junior or senior year of school. The place will be in one of the history classes taught by Miss Bradford or Mr. lserinann. Miss Bradford teaches history during the first, second, and Fifth periods, while Mr. lsermann teaches history dur- ing the third and fourth periods. VVhy not make a date to drop in and see us some time? BOCJKKIQEPING Lfndcr the direction of Mr. Richard Cambridge, the bookkeeping classes learned all the fundamentals of bookkeeping. Both beginning and advanced classes were held. Besides reading in the text book, the bookkeeping students also worked in their work- books and finished some practice sets. Mr. Cambridge is to be thanked for his able direction of these classes. SHORTHAND Room 209 is a room of ambitious people! Here is study at its best. For 209 is the room used for shorthand during the fourth period. Here a group of students gather to increase their knowledge in the field of secretarial work. Typing goes right along with this shorthand course, so most of the students go to the typing room from shorthand. Miss Scott teach es this shorthand and typing class. Much know- ledge is gained here. TYPING This year's typing classes have been under the auspices of two very capable teachers, Miss Esther Scott and Miss Pauline Perry. This year's classes were divided in two waysg the one semester, or personal typing course, and the year course known as commercial typing. Exercises, speed tests, timed writings, and many other typing activities were part of the curriculum. .-.21.. M002 BUSINESS CU-Ol' The Business Co-op class not only attends school, hnt they also hold down good johs in dif- ferent Monmouth firms. The class hegins at one. under the direction of Miss Pauline Perry. At 2 :3U the girls go to work uptown. The class learns typing, shorthand, and all other things pertaining to office work. Office Practice, as it is generally called, gives the girls valnahle experience and assures them of a good job after graduation, - SALESMANSHIP lfor thc first time this year Salesmanship has a full year in which to teach the fundamental principles of selling. This takes a lot of personality training done hy Miss Esther Scott. The main class project is door-to-door selling. Convincing people that they need greeting cards and stationery is where their training comes in handy. The profit from this project is used for a class party, equipment and charity. The class also had several speakers during the year. wgg- MATH XYho could ever forget the good old math Remember how we struggled with algebra how willing she always was to help us? classes? under Bliss Klclieown our freshman year, and Those students preferring a more generalized course took general math, taught by Mr. Robert Talkin, instead of algebra. Then in our sophomore year Came plane Miss MeKeown. How those axioms, postulates, Last. but not least, was advanced algebra was a semester under Mr. Lester, but how much geometry directed by Mr. R. G. Lester or and theorems ran through our heads! and trigonometry for the bolder students. Each we learned in this short time. .-23, 1 . .. - ...- VC DCATIC JNAT, AGRICULTURE lu years to come, the training being ac- quired now will he invaluable in many ways around the farm, shop, or whenever a need arises. Vocational Agriculture is a course connected with the farm youth of America and leads directly to the job of making farmers. Mr. Raeburn Rehn is the teacher and has done a line job of performing his duty. liach boy who takes ag must spend 7 hours in supervised study which means that he must also spend either 2 study periods a week in ag or all activity periods plus the regu- lar class time. Ag is connected with F.F.A. and many activi- ties are carried on jointly for each cause. INDUSTRIAL ARTS If Mr. Howard Noreen's industrial art classes continue with their constructive projects, they may have to begin paying union dues. Un- der expert leadership, these boys did themselves proud with such achievements as their building a stand at the football field. This is just one side of their assorted activities. They also work with metal, electricity, and anything else in the way of manual arts. F' is COOKING Under the instruction of Mrs. Courtney, two cooking classes are held each day. During this year a cooking course has been offered to the boys for a semester, differing from the one-year course offered to the girls. The foods course is set up to study the proper diets, composition of food, economical methods of buying and, of course, the preparation of foods. SEXVING Nearing the end of our tour of Monmouth High, we notice a door on which is tacked this sign, Please knock before entering . XVhat can this room be? lt says room 206. NVe knock loudly on the door, and the teacher, Miss Swan- son, answers the door. She invites us in, while our eyes rove about the room. It is the sewing room! There are girls sitting around the various tables or sewing machines working away on a blouse, dress, skirt, or some other article of apparel. Miss Swanson explains to us that there are four sewing classes, one advanced class and three beginner's classes, and one homemaking class which she teaches. It seems that the homemaking course is a new one started in September, 1949, giving the girls a general knowledge of cooking and sewing. The gills studied sewing last semes- ter and now are studying foods. It's working very successfully. As we start to leave, there is just one thing we want to know--A-why must we knock before entering? 1 1 1 l 1 1 ee 1 is 1 Sl'lClCt'll lil'HXX'll now cow liowl l 11101111 lirown how Cow nowll IIUXX' NOW' HKUXYN L'UXVlll So the story goes i11 sin-eCl1 class. llllllltl' thc supervisioii of Klrs, llarroll Lillltplllllll. the spa-4-cli class had anotlier siicccssfiil year.

JOURNALISM Mr. Swanson's journalism class wrote news stories, features stories, editorials, featurettes and even put on two editorial campaigns this year. The class of seven learned about almost every phase of journalism this year. Besides studying and writing, the class took a trip through the Review Atlas. They also did a great deal in putting the Clipper together and distributing it on Fridays. Thanks go to Mr. Ronald Swanson for giving us such an interesting class. .26- llIlQl.'S GYM Uh! my aching back! l hope we never have any more of those ole' exercises, l can hardly niovef' Those are typical words that can be heard by the girls in their gym classes. But who thinks up these wonderful exercises and the games the girls play? None other than Mrs. Enid Kilgore, the physical education teacher, who teaches the girls how to play baseball when it's warm: and then in the winter, the girls try' their hand at volleyball and basketball. Of course everybody can hardly wait until the time to learn tumbling. This is the time the girls about break their necks to do the right thing. Also, this year they tried a lot of relays that were fun, but oh! how tiring. So with all the aches and groans everybody came through swell. and everybody really enjoyed it. BOYS GYM A line place for boys to play different sports and to get some line exercise is the boys gym classes. These classes are held five times a day and a half credit is given for each semester. The morning classes were taught by Mr. Larson be fore he left and the afternoon classes by Mr. Talkin. After Mr. Larson left, Tony Castanogli taught the morning classes. Almost all the boys liked the gym classes because a good time was had by all. 1 . -rf' 14's ' Yllllllud l,Il1li.XlQY 5ll'll l1l l'j111c-tl X 1111 11- k'llll'! mg 1hvl1l11.115 'lllll t'X't'I'l'1llH' is NlllllbUSK'fll11lN'Sllll.

PSYCllOl.OtiY llsychology was the subject that was taught in room 9 between the hours of 8:30 - 9:30 .X.M. Mr. ,loseph XVilkaitis was the teacher, and under his command were the Psychology students. all 28 of them. During the semester in which Psychology was taught fthe seeondj many devices were incorpo1'atc-cl to teach the students the material. Reading, discussion, etc., were included with the trip to vlacksoiiville being the most enjoyable, as well as the most educational. All in all, the students will long remember their semester of Psychology. -29- CUSTODIANS The many people who went to the state basketball tournament noticed how much better our gym floor looked. You will also find that Monmouth has the cleanest building in the con- ference. It is the duty of the custodians to take care of the building. The head custodian is Carroll Richardson, and others are George Hickman, Archie Robertson. Robert Henness, and Edward Ray. 1 During the coal strike, we all came to realize the importance of the maintenance workers. Through good management, Monmouth was able to continue school when many others were forced to close. Monmouth students have come to have an intense pride in the looks of our buildings and grounds, and as a result, the casual visitor is always very pleased with the appearance of our school. -30- DRIVERS TRAINING Sereeeh! Oops, guess I forget to put in the clutch. Oh, well, I'll just try again. That is the most common expression in the Drivers' Training car, Almost every pupil goes through this igncrrant stage. This year's car is a dual-control, gray, four-door Ford. Two classes are held a week, one of which is during the activity period when the textbooks are used. The other class is held during the stuflent's Qvvn f'2SS, and 15 spent in driving only. Four students are usuallY in the car at one time under the careful observation After the backing, night Drivers' Training isn't terribly hard, so just give student has the car fairly under control, he is instructed to do more difficult things like parking, driving' and driving in the rain. of the director, Mr. H.

Our 72 piece Concert Band has just completed a very successful season, having partici- pated in many concerts and trips throughout the school year. The programs have featured music with spirit and in many different styles. Last fall our band used 60 members to march in parades and to present half-time shows at six football games. Football enthusiasts greatly enjoyed the spectacular held shows which showed lots of effort with resulting professional precision. A corps of eight fine twirlers led the Marching Band. Under the expert leadership of Mr. Munneke, the organization has become one of the outstanding groups of its kind in the mid-west with a very good promise of another fine band next year. ..41...

NATIC DNAI, HONOR SOCIETY lt is a very great responsibility as well as an honor to be a member of the National Honor Society. livery year lifteen per cent of the seniors are chosen to belong to the Sachem Chapter, Monmouth's chapter in the N.H.S. Naturally, there are certain requirements that have to be met before one is even considered for membership. These four standards are: Qlj service, CZD character, C35 leadership, Q43 and one must be in the upper third of his class. It is not enough that a person excel in one of the standards: he must be outstanding in all four. This year seventeen seniors were initiated into this honor society. They were Margaret Bowker, Nancy Stice, Margaret Parrish, Anne McL0skey, Pat Rankin, Mae jackson, Joan Sulli- van, Dorothy Craggs, Susan Dixson, Joyce Hilsenhoff, Barbara Tubbs, Martha Claycomb, Carna Levine, Norma Sheets, Tom Callow, Delbert Johnson, and Tom Nichol. HALL OF FAME The dream of every high school athlete is to be member of the Hall of Fame. To be a member of this group an athlete must receive 4 major letters in one sport or 7 major letters in not more than 3 sports. The members of this club have a picture of themselves in the appropriate uniform framed and hung above the trophy case. lt's something to look forward to, fellow.

ISLSINIQSS Ul l lt'lC Martha Tliompson, S.ll.,X. treasurer. headed the business office staff this year. Mr. Cani- bridge, who was new this year, advised the statt and kept the oflice running smoothly. All the business of the school is transacted through the business ollice. The staff is chosen from the bookkeeping classes and they really do a hne job. liefore the time of the business otlice, all treasurers kept their money in the otlice safe and deposited it at the bank themselves. Not only was it hard for the students, it just made more work for the bank. Now all money is deposited in the business office and is all taken to the bank at the same time. The business otlice was begun in l928 and has proved a valuable addition to the school. This year about 310,000 will have passed through the business office, and it was handled very capably by the staff. The stall consisted of Martha Thompson, treasurer: Betty Houghton, senior accountant: Mary lioozan. S..

M0lI?,9 X LQ P RESERVE BASKETBALL The Monmouth Snapper team had just 21 fair season this year, but a lot of worth-while experience was gained. The Snaps were led into their battles by Bunky Scott and Harry Patterson at the guard posts. Bob Munneke and Roy Palmer as the forwards, and Larry Peyton as Center. Perhaps the season would have been a good deal better, but many unforseen troubles arose for Coach Robert Tabby Talkin. Lyle Skinner, a freshman and season opener at forward was moved to the varsity and Dean Isaacson became ineligible at the mid-term. Great things will be expected of a team that. in spite of all these troubles, could have a winning season. All the starters and all the substitutes should be praised for their part. The other boys on the Snapper squad were Tom Vaughn, Ralph Ranney, Ralph Maguire, Dick Kil- gore. Dave Levine, l.owell Zea, Bob Meling, Bill Burdens, Bob Fusch, Leonard Gibb and Ray Parsons.

Now, after four short years, we're sure that all have enjoyed our stay here and our association with the faculty and the other classes. As we go forth into college or the business world, we'll always remember things that Monmouth has done for us, and what it has meant to us. liefore we go, we must give our very Special thanks to our advisors, Miss Marjorie McKeown and Mr. Howard Noreen, who have been so very unselfish with their time and help in all of our projects. And now as we take Our leave, we bid good-bye to all our teachers, the students, and the aclmiuistrationg we've had a lot of fun and we hope welre learned a lot, too. -34.- Wiki DICK ROMINE . . . co-captain of track, secretary of M Club, always seen with Anne, drives a Cadillac, experi- enced grocer.
