I we PROUDLY DEDICATE All i Tliji-fhifiiln lt is with pride that we turn the spotlight on Miss Muriel Kort- hage, the senior class adviser. Throughout our years at Mon- roe she has been a genuine leader, always working in the interests of the class and the school. Her guiding hand, her unseltish spirit, and her loyalty to the students are factors which have played an im- portant part in the successful accomplishments of the class ot 1950. Miss Korthage is truly an Academy Award winning adviser. She will always be remembered by the students whose performances she has so capably directed. .- 4 I IM IRIECCTKBHR 1 ' 1,' if: ,ff 'jjqlfjjjl tiff!! ,M ' ff x J! My A Wtffni' jf!!!

Our principal, Mr. Franklyn Blume, is both a capable leader and fine personal adviser. Always working in the interests of the students and the school, he has promoted many new advancements in the field of education. With his help a common learnings program for freshmen has been successfully started. A former band director himself, he promoted the idea of forming a school band. Inspired by his enthusiasm, the students have worked to achieve this goal. The fact that the band is now making such rapid progress is due partially to his hard work. Mr. Blume firmly believes that good parent-teacher relationships are highly benehcial to student growth. At P.T.A. meetings he can usually be found engaged in friendly conversation with parents. Despite his busy schedule, Mr. Blume takes time out from his administrative duties to talk with the students. His brief visits to classrooms are familiar to all of us. To the students of Monroe, Mr. Blume is not merely a capable principal, he is a real friend. Helping vvifh The direcfion of school life is lvlr.

What puts the spark into the Monroe Student Council? ls it Miss Munson, the adviser? ls it the otticers? Or is it the students? Whatever the answer, this has been a very success- ful year. It was through the etforts of the Council that freshmen were given a chance to get acquainted ata square dance on the hrst day of school. The Council also sponsored the big homecoming dance in the tall. Other proiects included ushering at the open house during Education Week, and promoting ticket sales for the spaghetti dinner. PRESENTING THE HCUSE MANAGERS . YOUR USHERS AND SHUSHERS The Student Council stationery shop is an important part of the school, paper, notebooks, pens and pencils, erasers, and vvork- books are sold there. Careless students discovered that their lost textbooks had been re- turned to the stationery shop. l-lomeroom representatives con- ducted the Community Chest, Red Cross, March ot Dimes, and Christmas Seal drives. On Thanksgiving Day underprivi- leged tamilies were cheered by tood baskets from Monroe stu- dents. At Christmas time the main hall ot the school was adorned with aailv decorated trees, and an old-fashioned tree was trimmed in the auditorium. Last spring the candidates tor this year's otfhcers were pre- sented to the student body in an assembly. On the day ot the election voting machines were set up, and each student regis- tered and voted for the candi- date ot his choice. Dick Hen- ninger was elected this year's president, Tom Frid became vice president, Barbara Meyer took over the secretary's duties, Mary Drummond was elected as cor- responding secretary, Jerry Cashill received the treasurer's book, and Janet Schaefer was chosen sergeant at arms.

The Mac Club provides exhibits ot interest tor all students of Monroe. The year's out- standing exhibit included copies ot such documents as The Declaration ot Independence, and letters and state- ments written by important men in history. Wise teens are Y-Teens. That is the slogan of the club which is open to all girls at Monroe. Some of the mem- bers attended instruction classes in bowling, dancing, and other skills. Though there were a few moans about aching muscles, everyone really enjoyed herself in these classes. Besides several parties at school during the year, an Easter party vvas given for underprivi- ALL GIRL CAST leged children. The recreation committee made baskets, and the publicity committee had an egg-dying party at Murilla Page's house to color eggs for the children. The group also put on an annual May Dance. Under Miss Korfhage's direction, Y-Teens provided fun and friend- ship for all girls vvho belonged.

At their monthly meetings-conducted by president, Jerry Verner, vice president, Pat McGroder, secretary, Kathryn Burger, and treasurer, Sue Melbostad-the scientific-minded members ot the club looked forward to May when the state convention would be held. Miss Helen Sullivan, adviser, helped the eager young scientists iron out many problems which they met in their search tor knowledge. There vvasn'T a day This year ThaT you could walk inTo The library wiThouT finding iT as neaT as a pin. Who was responsible? The Library club, of course. This organizoTion consisis of all girls who work in The library during Their sTudy periods. Under The guidance of Miss Mary Jo Sommer, school librarian, The girls Took full charge of The room. Besides checking books in and ouT, and Typing and checking The mail, each girl had a cerTain number of shelves To keep in order, and was responsible for The library's neaTness.

Such phrases as this could be heard when the Masque and Gavel presented its annual play, What a Lite. Ed Cornelissens, characteriz- ing the unlucky Henry, kept the audience roaring as he and Sue Larsen romped across the stage. At the open house in November the members presented radio scripts and demonstrated the methods ot applying stage makeup. Cooperating with the music department tor the Christmas assembly, the organization presented colorful tableaus portraying the Nativity scenes. STARS AND STARLETS OF TOMORROW Who did John Dickson ask to the prom? What band has been booked for the senior party? Did Chuck Nadeau make the all-city basketball team? These and other questions were of vital concern to the Monitor staff, second year journalism stu- dents who put out the school paper. Marjorie Jaeger, editor-in-chief, did a fine job of planning the layout of the paper, making assignments, and seeing that the staff functioned smoothly. As editor of the feature page, she also checked the latest PRESS AGENTS gossip and new sources of information. News stories for the first page were edited by Pat Born- dale, who was always on the alert for scoops. Other editors were Colleen Moore who was in charge of club and classroom news, and Bill Knippenberg, sports page editor. The Monitor staff this year took tours through the St. Paul Dis- patch and the Minneapolis Star Tribune buildings. The success of the Monitor is due largely to the energy of its excellent adviser, Miss Sara Myers.

SCRIPTWRITERS AND DECORATORS Truth, loyalty, enlightment, opportunity, initiative, leadership, and friend- ship-these are the goals ot the Quill and Scroll, an organization ot outstanding journalists from the statt of the Monitor. An honorary society, the Quill and Scroll's main purpose is to give recognition to those students who have had at least titty inches ot writing published. All mem- bers have to be in the upper one-third ot their class. They must also be recommended by the Monitor adviser, Miss Sara Myers. All members wear gold pins which they receive when they are initiated into the society. The Thumb Tack members, chosen from the membership of the Macs, could always be called on to assist in making decorations for parties and dances, This year's activities included an art exhibition and a tea for the faculty. During the busy Christmas season the Thumb Tacks were not idle, they worked hard making paintings tor Christmas gifts. Another ot their proiects was making drawings for the Scholastic Art Contest. BACKSTAGE DURING OPENING NIGHT An ungloritied but essential group ot students is the stage torce. These boys care tor all stage props tor assembly programs, operettas, and class plays. The crew carries on its work so quietly that few realize the extent of the amount ot Work that goes into setting a stage . . .

Deadline and Doctrine are syn- onymous to those harried seniors who were on the yearbook staff. Editor, Pat lvlcGroder, and her staffeconstantly haunted by deadline datesfwere kept busy working on the pictures and copy. The typists, at a moment's notice, would sit down at their machines and steadily turn out a seemingly endless stream of work. lvlary Drummond, business man- ager, and her hard working staff made sure that bills were paid on time and that all money was collected and recorded. Af- ter a time even their dreams were filled with an endless parade of figures. The adver- tising staft, goaded into action by Chuck Pitts, scurried from store to store, and despite vvorn out shoes and sore feet they finally managed to fill their quota of ads. One crisis followed another, but the work was finally Hnished and the Doctrine vvent to press. Everyone heaved a tremendous sigh, vve had finally made it!

IN THE ORCHESTRA PIT LETTER TO ANTONIUS Dear Tony:-After all these years we thought you and the class of 254 B.C. might like to hear from us and learn what vve've been going through on your account. Our club gets together twice a month for fun, food, and a study of Virgil's Aeneid. it would be a help to have you around because we usually run into a lot ot trouble. Our adviser, Miss Kor- thage, tells us that you were able to read that stuft when you were ten years old. What a brain you must be, Tony! The big altair ot the year was the initiation of new members. The initiates, Mary Ahlberg, Mary Lou Cook, Jim Yarusso, Roger Peabody, Bill Brandt, Pat Foote, Lorraine Pikal, Wesley Suhr, Theresa Weinzettel, Pat King and Nancy Kolstad, served as slaves at a Roman banquet and were put through their paces. Did we have a good time the night Jerry Verner asked us to his house! His mom fixed the most de- licious dinner-better, we're sure, than any ot your banquets. Most ot us simply could not pass up those third helpings, and tor once, we almost did credit to one of your Roman customs! Well, Tony, we'll have to start translating that Caesar tor class tomorrow. Write soon, but until then, vale, or as we say, so long tor now! -The Latin Club of 1950 LATIN CLUB-Left to Right-Ray Marsh, Roy Woodhouse, Jerry Verner, Ken Schoen, Janine Elofson, Marcia Ramsey, Mary Hamilton.

FOCTBALL An inexperienced Monroe aggregation started the season against Wilson atter being rained out in its only non-conference game. The Redmen seemed to have the game in the bag when they scored two touchdowns and assumed a i3-O lead in the irst halt. Taking the opening kick-oft in the second halt, Bob Anderson brought the crowd to its feet with a torty-three yard return. On the next play Tom l-lielm took a lateral from Art Dwelly and went all the way for a TD. lt was a close game from then on, with both lines outstanding. Jerry Cashill threw a pass to Omie Kauter in the last minutes of play to complete the scoring. The Greenies seemed to be going places when they took the opening kick-oft in the Johnson tilt and marched to the two, where Jerry Cashill took it over tor a score. They picked up two more points on a safety and led 8-6 at halt time. In the second halt the Governors came to life and won going away 25-8. The Green Wave started to hit its stride in the Central game. Central started the scoring in the second period and led 6-O at the halt. In the third period Bob Anderson went wide around end to score the Greenies' first touchdown. The conversion was good and they led 7-6. The Minutemen came back to take the lead tor awhile, but the Wave wasn't to be denied. Atter a spirited drive up the field, Jerry Cashill took the ball over tram the one to end the scoring and tie the contest.
