ANNUAL STAFF Editor-in-chief ...... Barbara Phelps Literary Editor . . . . Margery Lawrence Asst. Literary Editor ..... Louise Mohr Sports Editor ....... Ray Robinson Business Manager ...... Alan Hewes Art Editors .... Bud Fryer, Hugh Huber Annual day is a big event at Morgan Park. The editors and the staff have worked hard to make this annual something to be remembered. Wartime restrictions have made the work more difficult at times, but the staff believes that all their efforts have been worth while. The task of putting out the 1944 Empehi started last fall. The editor-in-chief, Barbara Phelps, has been ably assisted by Marge Law- rence, literary editor, Louise Mohr, assistant literary editor, Ray Robinson, sports editor, Al Hewes, business manager, and Bud Fryer and Hugh Huber, art editors. The stad was larger this year than it has been in past years. Nearly thirty persons volunteered, both in the spring and fall semesters, to serve as a staff. This staff did its part to make the annual a success by doing the odd jobs, such as, typing copy, soliciting ads, and doing some literary work. The theme of the annual, which is the school song, was decided upon first, and plans de- veloped rapidly from there. Photographs of the February graduates were taken as early as Octo- ber. During the first part of the spring semester june graduate pictures and club pictures were taken. Much credit should be given to Mr. Gene Hartough who did the professional photography. Most of the candid shots were done by Empehi's photo-staff, Tom Thayer, Rus- sell Fantucci and Bill Vogele. Clubs were very co-operative about getting their write-ups in on time. All co-operation on the part of Empehi's clubs was greatly appre- ciated. Last, but definitely not least, the staff wishes to thank Mrs. Dorothy H. Cella, adviser, for her help which has proven invaluable. Now everything is over and the 1944 Empehi is out. QUILL and SCROLL Fall Spring Tom DeBurrs President joan Gemeinhardt Joan Gemeinhardt Vice Pres. Edward Carstens Sue Blaicher Secretary Marge Nevin Donald Allen Treasurer Edward Lennon Quill and Scroll, being an international hon- orary society, has always maintained the highest of standards. Each year, several of its members prove their ability by bringing honors to Mor- gan Park either by winning a prize in a journal- istic contest or by some outstanding service to the school. During the past year, the Morgan Park chap- ter has participated in two contests, one national and one citywide. In the national contest, Gloria Hunter and Margie Nevin received hon- orable mention in the feature and editorial groups, respectively, while Edward Carstens was a second place sectional winner in the sports reporting division. To be admitted as a member of the Morgan Park chapter, a student must be of good scho- lastic standing, have sixty-five inches of string, be at least in the 5B semester, have good jour- nalistic ability and a recommendation from Miss Alma Bauman, the club sponsor. Besides editing the class prophecy each semester, Quill and Scroll edits and sells the Empehi Bulletin from which the club treasury obtains its funds. Towards the end of the spring term, the club sponsors a Press Banquet as its final event. This past year, the club presented an as- sembly, sent the Empehi News to our alumni in the service, and put out a school handbook containing general information for the school. Officers for the fall semester were Tom De Butts, president, Joanie Gemeinhardt, vice-presi- dent, Sue Blaicher, secretary, and Donald Allen, treasurer. During the spring term, executive positions were held by joanie Gemeinhardt, president, Edward Carstens, vice-president, Margie Nevin, secretary, and Edward Lennon, treasurer. Without the able guidance and encourage- ment of Miss Alma Bauman the club would not have been able to carry out its many activities. Page 19
