SENIUIQ HISTUIQY Searchlight Associate Ed. 4g Barnwarming On the morn of September 7, 1936, forty-four round and beaming faces en- tered the welcoming doors of the then small building of Palmyra High School. Becoming slightly discouraged after a few days of the new ordeal of high school life, Mr. Gene CCoachJ Hall took the entire group into his care and guided them through a delightful freshman year. In 1937 we look at the door of the high school and find to our utter surprise, a very different group than the one we saw entering those same doors the year before. How are they different this year you ask? I'll tell you. Thev are a superior lot and are no longer in need of guidance. No, indeed, now they are offering it. They are .sophomores Even though the group now offered advice they sometimes re- quired advice from their guiding sponsor, lkiiss Ihrig. Come, buy candy and pop, called the juniors shortly after entering the Junior year. Yes, they are preparing for that Grand and Glorious event, the Prom. Being a small class and badly in need of money, the entire group gave their assistance and put aside all other things to solve the money-making prob- lem, and succeeded in accumulating a large treasure. An air of excitement hung over the school for days, or maybe I should say weeks, before the Prom. The Prom theme was kept as a deep dark sec- ret. Mr. Hall, the flower lover, made such a successful arrangement in the flower decorations, that everyone agreed it was the most successful Prom Palmyra High had sponsored. Make way for the Seniors! Yes, those dear little boys and girls who enter- ed high .school on the morn of September 7, 1936, have now attained Seniorhood. Thinking we had the most difficult task in our school when we gave the Prom, we discovered our grave mistake when we shouldered the task of editing the Searchlight. We are greatly honored to have the privilege of being the first class to gradu- ate in the New Auditorium. It is with heartache and tears that this group of Seniors leave P. H. S., but we hope it continues to grow in size and efficiency. With a fond adieu we say goodbye to you! and you and you. Margaret Bailey.

Having successfully completed the second step of our High School career, we, the members of the class of '41, start- ed our Junior year on Monday morning, other school activities - chorus, debate, F. F. A. and Band. September 7, 1939, with the determination to do our best. We were very pleased to have Mr. Jones appointed as our sponsor for the year. At our first class meeting, we per- formed the important task of electing the following class officers: Guy Wynne Libbee, president, Clifford Bode, vice- presidentg Earlene McChristy, secretary, and Billy Robison, treasurer. Our class was well represented in athletics, 11 boys were out for football, 7 of which received letters. Bill Robison and Clarence White were co-captains this year. For next year, Bill Nill and Clif- ford Bode, two more members of our class, were chosen co-captains. In basket- ball, several Junior boys received letters. We were also well represented in all Neal Dawson and Charles Fogle to rep- resent us in the Student Council, and Bill Robison was elected vice-president of the Student Body. The most important social event of the year was the Junior-Senior Prom. Early in the year we began making plans for this occasion. The finances for the expense of this affair were obtained by the usual taxation, and by selling candy and sodas at the football and basketball games. We also sponsored a dance and presented a Junior Play which helped greatly. The Prom was a great success and was enjoyed by everyone. We feel this year has been a most enjoyable and successful one, and we are all looking forward to next year when we shall be Seniors.

Of these thirty- four remained out all season. Missing were twelve lettermen from the 1938 undefeated team, eleven by grad- uation and one who failed to return to school. Four other squad members of the previous year failed to report. This left quite a gap to replace, but the boys, led by Co-Captains Billy Robison and Clarence White, fell to with a will, though the weather man furnished extremely hot Weather, they soon rounded into shape for their first game. During the summer and early fall, plans were made to place lights on the football field and after a number of set- backs, were finished the afternoon of the date of the first game. The 48,000 watt system with Alzak Aluminum reflectors gives P. H. S. one of the best lighted fields in this section. McCooey was our first opponent. The game was a see-saw affair and the honors fairly evenly divided. Finally, a mixed- up signal allowed McCooey to recover a fumble on our ten-yard line and on the second play went over on a cutback to score. They made the extra point good. Score McCooey-7-Palmyra-0. Our lads came back fighting but old man time caught up with them, with the ball on the Irlsh one-yard line. QContinued on next pageb FOOTBALL 1939 CContinued from preceding pagel The next game was at Hannibal, with the Pirates boasting a strong team of veterans, who showed their superiority over our green, but fighting team 27-0. The following week we journeyed over to Monroe City, determined to avenge last year's tie game. The team was handi- capped with Daniels and Donelson unable to play. Clarence Gottman was moved into the fullback position on offence and had the unusual honor of running 25 yards for a touchdwn the first time he ever carried the ball. He later scored again from the 3-yard line. Charlie My- ers ran 33 yards to score. Clarence White plunged two yards for a touchdown. But little Jimmy Cammack provided the big- gest thrill of the evening when he ran 45 yards through the whole Monroe team for our last score. Jimmy also had the unusual distinction of scoring the first time he ever carried the ball. White made three extra points and Haydon one, all on wins to make the score read Pal- myra 34-Monroe City O. Centralia came over with probably the strongest team they have had in the number of years, but the Panthers kept the record of never allowing a Centralia team to score on them to remain clean. The first time we got the ball, We drove 55 yards to score, Gottman going over from the 4-yard line. Paul Donelson place-kicked the extra point. After the next kick-off, Gottman, playing tackle on defense, broke through and blocked Centra1ia's punt. The ball bounded high in the air, Sublette catching it on the ten yard line and running for the touch- down. Charlie Myers, on a reverse, made the extra point to make the final score read Palmyra-14-Centralia-2. We then traveled over to Quincy, to meet Quincy College Academy in the new Q. Stadium. We were out-weighed 25 pounds per man and thought our chances slim. Taking the ball on our own 40, We made a first down and then on the second play threw a long pass which was dropped on the 10-yard line. They made a first down on our 40 then, threw a delayed pass and ran the 40 yards to score, and made the extra point good. We made a serious threat in the sec- ond quarter to their 18-yard line. The third quarter opened with Q. C. A. kicking off to us, the ball bounded badly, and Robison, juggling the ball, had it picked off his hands by the Academy end who ran 20 yards for another tally. The extra point failed. The score reading 13 to 0 against us. After the next kick-off we drove straight down the field to the two-foot line, 4th down, but failed to go over. Myers slipped through and blocked their punt in the end zone. O'Nan fell on the ball but it was as elusive as the proverb- ial greased pig, and Quincy recovered for a safety, making the score read 13 to 2. They kicked off from their 20-yard line and we started a drive that ended on the 13-yard line in the fourth quarter. They- threw a long pass which Jacobs inter- cepted and ran back 15 yards to their 45- yard line. We drove right on down and Myers ran the last 18 yards for the extra point. Score 13 to 9-'7 minutes to play. When Q. C. A. attempted to punt after the next kick-off, White blocked and Gottman recovered on their 26, and again we drove down. White going over from the second yard line. Donelson again place-kicked the point. Score Pal- myra-l6-Q. C. A.-13-3 minutes to play. We kicked to them, downing the ball on their 10, but O'Nan was offsides and we had to kick over, this time downing them on their 45. They threw 3 long passes which we couldn't stop, to put them on our one-yard line, from which they plunged to beat us 19 to 16. I Daniels averaged fifty-three and two- thirds yards on his punt in this, one of the most thrilling games ever witnessed. Playing an even heavier team from Louisiana, at home, the following week, the Panthers gave a good account of themselves. Louisiana seriously threat- ened early in the game, being stopped on our one foot line. Daniels pulled us out of the hole with a beautiful 50-yard punt. In the second period we started a drive which ended with Myers tip-toeing 25 yards down the sideline, evading three tacklers on the way, to score. Donelson place-kicked the extra point. Late in the fourth quarter Myers intercepted a lateral pass on our 15-yard line, and with Robison, Shanks, O'N an and Bode taking out every possible tackler, went 85 yards to a touchdown. Donelson kicked the extra point. Final score Pal- myra 14-Louisiana 0. Shelbina came down with not much punch but a fine defense. Yet they had enough to connect for a pass that traveled 20 yards for a touchdown and kicked the point. The Panthers came back with White going over for a tally from the 2-yard line. Donelson failed to kick the point. Incidently, this was the only one he missed all year. Our boys piled up four times the yardage that Shelbina did, but couldn't get it when needed most. Final score Palmyra 6-Shelbina 7. CContinued on next pagel THE SEASON FOOTBALL 1939 fContinued from preceding pagej Our last home game was with Macon and for the fourth successive year, we defeated them in a hard-fought game. In the second period we drove to their 9- yard line only to be thrown back on three successive plays to the 15. Then White threw a beautiful running pass to Robi- son who went over. White plunged the extra point. Macon never seriously threatened and the game ended Palmyra 7-Macon 0. We took on a new rival in our next ame with Missouri School for the Deaf 8 at Fulton as our opponents. We got to their 20-yard line in the first period but failed. They came back in the second period with a long 27-yard pass to score. They failed to make the point. They scored again in the third period to lead 12 to 0. The boys drove back to their 38 where White broke loose to their 5 and went over in 3 plays. Donelson kicked the extra point. In the fourth quarter, we stopped M. S. D. on our ten, taking the ball. White knifed inside tackle, faked a lateral and ran to the 35 where he lateraled to Daniel who ran the remaining 65 yards. However, it was called back, the umpire saying the pass went forward. This was heart-breaking for it would have given us the lead. The play deserves mention in that it was outstanding in its execu- tion. As a result M. S. D. succeeded in scoring again, the game ending M. S. D. 18-Palmyra 6. The boys stayed in Fulton all night and saw Missouri beat Oklahoma the next day at Columbia. A SUMMARY Touchdowns ..

Donelson was just out of bed, Gottman and Bode had trouble in get- ting around and all their backs had sore joints. M. S. D. had given us a teriffic hammering the week before. Neverthe- less, the Panthers put up a good fight but were not equal to the task and lost 14 to O. This game ended as had the first one, time catching us on McCooey's six- inch line. Thus ended the most successful seas- on in Palmyra history in the year follow- ing an undefeated team. In the four years Coach Hall has been here the Panthers have won 22 lost 13 and tied 4. On January 19, the first football ban- quet was held in the new gym, sponsored by the P. T. A. and the Kiwanis Club. A fine meal was served followed by a talk by Herbert Bunker and motion pictures of the Kansas, Nebraska and Oklahoma versus Missouri football games. This ended a fine season and we are grateful to all who had a part in it.

BASKETBALL SEASON 1939-40 The 1939-40 basketball season found four lettermen returning, Capt. Corbyn Jacobs, Clarence White, Bob Weyand and Tom Perkins. Several members of last year's squad reported, Dick Lovegreen, Howard Mc- Afee, Billy Robison and Donald Hayden, also Bob Summers, Sam Martin, Forrest Carlstead, Allan Buckwalter, Fred Sub- lette, Billy Schumm, Jimmy Cammack and Glenn Fohey. Later J. D. Crook re- ported. A number of others who later dropped out for one reason or another. Coach Hall soon found that his squad was less experienced than was thought. However, the boys set to with a will and with only six days practice went to the Monroe City Tournament losing to Bruns- wick 41 to 20 and to LaGrange 22 to 15. We opened our new gym with our old rivals from Monroe City who downed us in an overtime game 19 to 17. New London came over after the holi- days and won a hard fought game 28 to 26. The following week we met Emerson for our first victory. Our joy was short lived, however, for Hannibal-LaGrange Reserves poured it on in an unscheduled game 35 to 15, and Canton added insult to injury 35 to 21. McCooey took us 32 to 26 and La- Grange defeated us for the second time 33 to 25. Tilden, whom we had never defeated, came up and went home on the short end of a 41 to 19 score. Then Quin- cy Reserves came over and eked out a 18 to 16 victory. We then journeyed to the Shelbina Tournament only to lose our first game to LaPlata 22 to 16. Gee, we had lost 10 out of 12 games but we were far from being discouraged, and nosed out Clarence 17 to 16, then made it a running streak to two games by taking Tilden 36 to 325 only to lose a heart-breaker to Shelbyville in an ov- ertime game, for the consolation cup 25 to 23 on two free throws. We didn't give Shelbyville a shot in the overtime. We took on Canton again and revenge was sweet. We scored 17 points in the last quarter, 6 of them in the last minute to overcome a 23 to 13 lead and win 30 to 29. Holy Rosary, who had beaten several good teams, went home a loser 27 to 16. Another debacle occurred when Quin- Cy Reserves laid it on 35 to 15. In the Louisiana Tournament, we lost to Louisiana 28 to 19, won from Eolia 28 to 25, and lost another heart- breaker to McCooey 15 to 14. We evened things with McCooey 14 to 13 after they had won consolation at Louisiana. Shelbina came down with one of the best teams they've ever had, but we took them into camp 18 to 12 not allowing them a point the last half. So the season was a success for Mr. Adams. We feel that we improved a lot as the season progressed, as shown by the fact that we won only 2 of our first 12 games and won 7 of our last eleven. We increased our percentage at the free throw line from 28.32 in the first 12 to 48.776 in the last eleven games. The individual scores of the lettermen were as follows: White 1383 Weyand 905 Jacobs 82g Lovegreen 405 McAfee 495 Perkins 49, Hayden 23, Martin 193 Sum- mers 12: and Robison 9. We totaled 499 points-260 fouls. JJIMKGMA ' WW Sw ri lighter FIRST ROW-Fred Sublette, Dick Lovegreen, Bill Nill, Paul Donelson, Howard McAfee, Clarence Gottrnan, Allan Buckwalter. Bill Robison.

It's purpose is to further the interest of athletics in the school, to aid in bring- ing a closer relationship between the school and the townspeople. To stand for the highest ideals of sportsmanship and fair play. To strive to find better means of placing the athletics of the High School on the highest possible plane. In addition to athletics the Club also strives to aid in all the other activities of the school and to protect its properties for the use of those who follow.

LIBRARY Instead of having the same librarians a certain period every day, there are two librarians for each periodg one working 2 days, the other three days of each week. We think this will give more students a chance to gain experience of being a librarian. Mrs. Hackamack, who is in charge of the study hall and library, has re-ar- ranged the books and classified all the non-fiction books according to the Dewey Decimal System. The P. T. A. has again shown their interest in improving our educational fa- cilities by donating fB37.00 for the pur- chasing of new books. Sixty-four new additions by authors such as Douglas, Montgomery, Tarkington, Bacheller, Gold- smith, Terhune, Babcock, Rinehart and others have been added to the fiction section. The magazine rack has been well supplied with new magazines each month. The librarians have been kept busy check- ing out Reader's Digest, t'Life, L'Popu- lar Mechanics, Time, HAmerican Ob- server, Good Housekeeping, American Boy, and Health magazines. The class of 1934 gave 36.00 to the library and with that, five New Guidance Books were purchased. The school wishes to thank the members of the '34 class for this gift.

The girls are yell- ing-titian-haired Mary, Anne of the blonde locks, and Jeanne 'Kwith the light brown hair -vibrant, gay, enthusiastic. P-e-p certainly spelled the leaders and members of the squad of 1939-40. Soon after school began the follow- ing notice appeared on the bulletin board: Pep Squad meeting at 12:45. All mem- bers be present. The notice brought results and a fine meeting was held at which the following officers were elect- ed: President, Frances E. Yeagerg Vice- President, Doris Daniels, Secretary- Treasurer, Mary Richmond. Miss Win- ningham was again chosen sponsor. The first big question to be settled was how to choose cheer-leaders and new members. Try-outs for cheer leaders were held. Mary Richmond, Anne Drake and Jeanne Hawes won first places with Bonnie Schneider, Mary Jewell Bier and Jerry Mead as assistants. The matter of new members was disposed of in the following manner: Any senior girl who wished would automatically becoime a member. Under-class girls were not to be admitted until after the football season, and then their eligibility would depend upon the number of games attended and the interest shown. Honors fell to the pep squad. One of its assistant yell leaders, Mary Jewell Bier, was chosen football queen. Its members were asked to serve at the football banquet held January 19 in the high school auditorium. The squad chose January 9 as the date for the party to be held in honor of the new members. The old members presented a program and the initiation of new ones was begun. This lasted a week and was loads of fun. Basketball games at home were some- thing new and different as all games were played elsewhere before the new gym was built. The pep-squad was called up- on to provide cheer and encouragement for the teams when games were played in Palmyra. Usually the question of uniforms for the year was the one most hotly discussed but the matter had been settled satisfac- torily the year before when black shirts, orange sweaters, and white shirts had been adopted as official. The leaders de- cided they would like something a bit new and different for their costumes so they chose white pleated skirts instead of black ones worn by the squad. They proved to be a most attractive and pleasing innova- tion. The year 1939-40 has been a full and busy one for the Pep Squad and so we say Here's to the gang who'll carry on next year That you'll do your duty, we of this year never fear. 6 Love your teachers, love your books, love too, the dear old teams Cheer them on to victories and gains be- yond their dreams.

Mr. Price and Guy Libbee attended Camp Miniwanca, a leadership training camp, near Shelbey, Michigan, last Aug- ust. Mr. Price was an instructor in one of the many classes and Guy Libbee as a first year student. A purebred hog show and sale was held in Palmyra September 2, 1939. Hu- bert Shade was manager for the show and sale. Over one hundred gilts and boars were exhibited. Following the show, a sale was held. Many gilts and boars of excellent quality and of the best blood lines were in the sale. It is planned to have a bigger and better show at the Fall Festival but there will not be a sale. Several boys entered hogs in the National Stock Yards Vocational Agri- culture Fat Hog Show and Sale. Dudley Donelson won three ribbons. A judging team attended the show and sale. The team won third place and two members tied for second place as individuals. Mr. Price and several of the boys at- tended a sheep sale at St. Louis. Ninety ewes were purchased. These were to be used in Vocational Agriculture Projects. Fifteen members of the chapter and Mr. Price attended the American Royal in Kansas City October 17 and 18. The chapter and the home economic department sponsored a dance October 27, at the Old Washington Grade School building. Miss Anne Drake was selected as the most popular girl. CContfnued on next pagej F. F.A. CContinued from preceding page! An exhibit was assembled and dis- played in a room in the City Hall during the Fall Festival. An exhibit was on display in the Vocational Agriculture room the night of the dedication of our new school building. Included in the Breeders Association We have the Chester White, Hampshire, Spotted Poland China, and Duroc Jersey breeders. The hogs came from excellent blood lines. For instance the Spotted Poland China, which was gotten from Charles Garrell, Caledonia, Ill. The boar's sire won the world's grand champion prize. Coveralls were purchased for every member of the department. These are used on field trips and in shop Work. The second annual soil erosion tour sponsored by the local C. C. C. Camp was very helpful. It showed how the loss of sbil can be controlled. Several of the agriculture boys took part in the Wild Life Preservation pro- ject. Russell Sammons was chairman. This includes the feeding of 800 pounds of corn from the Wild Life Commission and about 1000 pounds from homes, to the quail during the cold period. ,Our enrollment for this year was 45. Thirteen of which were initiated into the Green Hand Degree and 9 were initiated into the Future Farmer Degree. FFA boys have mixed 15 tons of pro- tein supplement which was fed in place of tankage because it produced just as much pork at less cost. About 50 tons of mineral was mixed and sold. During the last year there was 34,- 679.53 invested in projects. The project income was S2,876.l9, of which 5526.49 was for self labor. This left a net profit of 552,349.70 There were also 245 im- provement projects and 245 supplement- ary projects. As one of 10 Missouri FFA Chapters whose program of work has necessary approval, PalmyI'a's Vocational Agricul- ture Department is now entered in the National Future Farmers of America Con- test. Four former members of the chapter are now State Farmers, and there are 2 or 3 members, who have outstanding pro- ject programs, who will'make application for State Farmer Degree this year. Six former members of the chapter who have graduated from P. H. S. are students at the State University this year. They are Harold Wegehoft, Raymond Frankenbach, Harlan Arp, Bill Jacobs, Maurice Happel and Hubert Shade. The officers for the coming year are: Guy Wynne Libbee, Presidentg Marvin Frankenbach. Vice - Presidentg Russell Sammons, Secretaryg Bob Summers, Treasurerg Charles Redd, Assistant Treas- urerg Wayne Kroeger, Second Vice-Presi- dentg and Frazier Paugh, Reporter. BARNWARMING The 1939 Barnwarming, ehief so-cial event of the Palmyra chapter of the Fu- ture Farmers of America, was held Fri- day night. October 20, in the auditorium of the old Washington Grade School build- ing and it was a very lovely affair. The boys and girls and even some of the older folks present enjoyed the affair to the fullest extent. Miss Frances Evelyn Yeager, a senior in the Palmyra High School, was crowned queen of the festivities. The other three candidates, Miss Mary Jewell Bier, Miss Jeanne Hawes, and Miss Rosaland White acted as attendants of the queen. The queen was crowned by Mr. Price. The rooms were attractively deco- rated in autumn leaves and corn fodder through which were mingled soft 'colored lights. Bales of straw were used for seats. Guy Wynne Libbee, as manager of the barnwarrning and master of cere- monies, performed his part to perfection. Along with games there was music furnished by the Midwesterners from radio station WTAD and a radio and vietrola for those wishing to dance. Following the festivities in the audi- torium, refreshments of ice cream, cherry pie, and sweet apple cider were served in one of the adjoining rooms. ,ll BAND QPERCUSSIONJ FIRST ROWwMerle Wood, Jean Yager, Frances Sosey, Gula Schaeffer, Eleanor Griffith, Catherine Schaeffer, Morris Byrum.

PALMYRA SCHOOL BAND Many new students joined our school band this past year, giving it a growth of 1006721 over last June. Numbering 85 peppy musicians, our band was three years old last September. At the start of school we began to drill hard on both marching and playing, to be ready for the football season which found the band doing its best to help our school spirit. A new formation was plan- ned for each game, though rain and dust sometimes interfered with our practice periods. New drums, five twirlers in a syn- chronized routine, and neat stepping Mar- tha Louise White as drum major in a colorful uniform helped put our band over as being worthy of Palmyra High. New grade cards, especially suited to band musicians, were introduced and practice reports for each week were used to help prepare us for our spring concerts and contests. We began to march indoors using gym shoes on the court, under the baton of Martha Louise White, Opal Dorris and Jean Yager. To the rhythm of whistle- clang-one-turn one-forward! we launch- ed into new and difficult routines. Dick Lovegreen won our first contest for the best drilled bandsman, Joyce Glahn and Eleanor Griffith running him a close race. in We played all kinds of music from Tiger Rag to National Contest num- bers. When cold weather forced us into warmer quarters, Joyce Glahn, Dick Love- green, Corbyn Jacobs, Frances Sosey and Eleanor Griffith aided our director in drilling their sections in warm, though small rooms. We took some trips also-a concert at Hannibal's Fall Festival, an appearance also at Hannibal's Christmas Parade, our annual contest trip to Kirksville, and a band swimming party was also held. A Solo Club was organized and quite a few of the band began work on individual solos. We also marched quite a bit in our home town during the Fall Festival season, Homecoming ceremonies, and Red Cross Day. Our Spring concert was held in March and we did our best to improve our past record with many types of music, trios, quartets, ensembles and band selections. Persian Market, 'fBlind Man's Movie, and The World Is Waiting For The Sunrise, were probably our most popu- lar numbers. It seems that our band has a bright future loaded with fun and appearances, and we intend to do our best to uphold our school and town whenever we appear.

HOME ECONOMICS This has been a year of firsts for Home Economics. September 4, we start- ed out in a brand new department with three first year classes. We attended our first Home Project District Conference at Troy, October 13. Here we heard about home projects for the first time. We weren't just sure what our home pro- jects should be, but following the cloth- ing unit most of the girls made something for their wardrobe. Some planned and prepared breakfast for a second project, and others valiently brushed hair and did exercises to the count of four to improve their personal appearance. The Home Economics girls and the F. F. A. boys co-operated in the first all- school dance held October 27. Students and the faculty put off their dignity and became farmers for a night in this very successful barn dance. meeting was held in December and Mary J. Bier was elected our first president. Nadine Ingram was elected vice-presidentg Doris Daniel, secretary: Elizabeth Anne Bestman, treasurerg and Dorotha Baker, news reporter. The outstanding social activity was the Mothers and Daughters Banquet in April. Easter and the first robin didn't catch us unawares. We had our spring dresses almost completed and plans for the tea and style show well organized. Next year, we hope to do bigger and better things, but it takes time to find out how things should be done. and we have had a very enjoyable year learning. ll Joyce Glahn, Sam Martin, Miss McWilliams, Dick Lovegreen, Leslie Pugh. l l I DEBATE Resolved: That the Federal Govern- ment should own and operate the rail- roadsw was the topic for argument this year. The debate members, under the guidance of Miss McWilliams, were all new to the squad this year, not one of them ever having debated in competition previously. The squad made up of Leslie Pugh and Dick Lovegreen on the negative and Joyce Glahn and Sam Martin upholding the affirmative, made two trips. The first was to the Shelbyville Tournament where the affirmative was very fortunate in winning all four of their debates and coming home with the honors while the negative won two and lost two. The sec- ond trip was made in high spirits to Hannibal Where the district meet was held. Both teams lost their debates but everyone gained valuable experience and had a good time. With this modestly successful season behind us We are heartily looking forward to next year and more debating.

The aims of such a club were explained and presented by Miss Muldrow, the com- mercial teacher, who adopted the idea. The first meeting was held at noon period early in the beginning of the first semester, and officers were elected as follows: Elizabeth Anne Bestman, Presi-- dentg Doris Daniels, Vice-Presidentg Lu- cille Widebrook, Treasurer, and Mary Louise Weyand, Secretary. The club began with 22 charter mem- bers, later received five new members. The club held its business meetings every second Monday at the noon hour, and a social meeting one night each month. To be eligible for membership, a student must be studying Shorthand and Typing or two years of Typing. The primary object of the Commercial Club was to raise money with which to purchase awards in both typing and short- hand. These awards were for typing stu- dents who had attained a speed and ac- curacy of 50 words a minute or more, and for shorthand students who had a standard speed and accuracy in transcription. On December 6, the Commercial Club sponsored a Chile Supper as one means of raising money. Other activities were held during the spring term. Much success to the Commercial Club of 1940-41.

Student government aims to pre- pare pupils for participation in govern- the group. The purpose of student government in Palmyra High School is to give pupils training in democracy. Student govern- ment is really in its infancy in our schoolg it will grow as the attitudes and abilities of the pupils grow toward the assump- tion of more and more responsibility for the promotion of school and individual welfare. ment. There is not better place to train for citizenship than in the schools. The Student Council discusses and plans solutions for problems that confront the school. This training in considering and solving their school problems should enable the individual pupils to assume the obligations and responsibilities of adult citizenship more readily.

The story cen- ters around Miss Priscilla Carter, and her two nieces, Marian and Jill. Aunt Prissy is very disgusted with her young nieces, because they have fallen in love with Frank Harlow and Jack Loring, whom she considers to be nothing but fortune- hunters. Aunt Priscilla decides that the only way to prevent her nieces from see- ing their lovers, is to take them away. To carry out her plan, she buys the supposed haunted Hobgood House, in the Ozark mountains. Frank and Jack are not so easily dis- posed of, however, and arrive on the scene soon after Aunt Prissy, the two girls, and their three servants reach their des- tination. There are many strange hap- penings in this fateful night, and Darius Krupp, the aged caretaker, adds to the mystery. Frank and Jack, with the aid of Sus- an, the t'Henglish 'ousekeeperj 'save the family from a desperate band of crooks. The cast included: Darius Krupp, the old caretaker - Howard McAfee. ill Miss Priscilla Carter, the interfering aunt-Opal Dorris. Marian and Jill Carter, her two de- termined nieces-Cleo Hess and Mary Louise Weyand. Frank Harlow and Jack Loring, two brave but equally determined young men-Dick Lovegreen and Bill Robison. Susan Perkins, housekeeper-Jeanne Hawes. I Henry Goober and Delilah West, two frightened darkies-Guy Libbee and Joyce Glahn. Bluebeard Bronson, escaped maniac- Earl Hoehne. Bill Wilkins, his keeper - Morris Kroeger. Patricia Arnold, kidnapped girl - Marcia Lee Happel. Production managers were Russell Sammons and Dorothy Jegglin. Other members of the Junior class helped ad- vertise the play. It was produced and directed by Miss McWilliams, speech in- structor. FIRST ROW-Louise White, Frances Evelyn Yeager, Mary Richmond, Helen Schaeffer, Lucille Widebrook. SECOND ROW-Miss McWilliams. Allan Buckwalter, Donald Ward, Corbyn Jacobs Jack Rothweiler, Dick Schaller. I SENIOR PLAY HWHAT HAPPENED TO UNCLE? Romance, mystery, suspense and laughs! All these ingredients you prob- ably enjoyed to the fullest extent, when you saw the Senior Play, What Happened To Uncle? It was a three-act comedy presented in the Gym May 2nd, The pro- duction was directed by our faithful coach, Miss McWilliams. The whole plot was based around Carl, the Uncle, who was played by Don- ald Ward. Carl has been away a week and when the play opens, his housekeeper, Bertha Walker Cplayed by Lucille Wide- brookb is frantically wondering where he is. Unexpectedly Lloyd CDick Schal- lerb Car1's nephew, comes home with a new bride, Alice CMary Richmondb. Carl has no idea where he has been, and gets the impression he must have married Alice. Then to top it all, Carl's fiance fFrances Yeager! comes to see him, bring- ing her mother, Mrs. Ellsworth CLouise Whitej. Frank Miller CJack Rothweilerb Car1's attorney, tries to straighten things out. Two gangsters, Millie CHelen Schaef- ferh and Bill CCorbyn Jacobs? and a Ser- geant CAl1an Buckwalterl added to the excitement, to find out what had happen- ed to Uncle! The cast was assisted by Bookholder, Doris Daniels, Property Managers, Irene Johnston, Rowenna Larson and Noble Slatesg Stage Managers, Nadine Ingram, Darold Englehart and Clarence Gottman. PROPHECY Who's that knocking at my door? cried the fair young maiden. It's I, the Census Taker the young man replied. 'Tll come down and let you in, if you will let me read your census book, said the fair young maiden. On the cover of the book was written in large letters these few and stirring words, Census l950. Silently the girl opened the book and these are the words she read: All names in this book are listed alphabetically and give a brief history of each person listed. The A's are omitted. On the first page are listed the b's, and the first name is one of a nurse. Quite efficient and devoted to all her cases. The last case she has secured is a very baffling case of heart trouble, and, according to Miss Catherine Baker, may take her the rest of her life to figure out the cause of R. Smith's heart trouble. On down the page we find that the secretary to the president of the American Legion is none other than our most stud- ious of all students, Dorotha Baker. She now punches the key board at a rate that makes even Joe Louis .stand back. Miss Elizabeth Bestman has won the typing championship several times. It surprises us very much to learn that she has never married and lives on a hill with her canary and typewriter. CThis is con- fidential but I have heard she is going to take advantage of the next leap year that comes alongh. The next name listed on this page is one of a very lucky young man, Donald Brockschmidt. He won the Pot of Gold and set up an electrical shop. It is hint- ed he now has girl friends galore. The large chicken ranch located 51!z miles southeast of Hannibal is being very competently managed by a young man named Allan Buckwalter. The last B I see on this page is Mar- garet Bailey, the Artist. She hasn't had a great deal of success yet, but, if the mice don't eat her in that attic of hers, she may be famous yet. Now, I would have sworn that I would find at least one more B on this page-one about a soft drink, but 1'i' might be on the page with the L's. mere is a name written all by itself which must be a commercial advertisement. It says the firms of Bier and Libby have joined partners wh-ch now makes the firm known as Libby,s Bier. I see that there aren't any statistics after the name Darold Englehardt, but when he cornes ba-ck from his Bring 'em back alive Cducksb tripi' to South Africa where he has been for the past year, the Census taker will interview him. After the name Doris Daniels, I find listed these facts: Miss Daniels has had a very successful career as Head of the Court of Missing Peisons. She says she would much rather find a husband and retire to some quiet kitchen where she could put her hard earned knowledge of Home Ec. into use. The famous newspaper man, Gerald Donelson, says he likes having a desk to put his feet on without having a teach- er telling him to remove them. I see where Anne Drake, the jitterbug of the class of 1940 is making a fine danc- ing career on Broadway. Clarence Gottman is farming a large farm now, but still longs for a football career. Elouise Hoenes sings her song and travels all over the United States. Her poor little husband just follows her around and is simply deeeeeeeevoted to her. We all laughed when Nadine Ingram made faces back at P. H. S. Now every one laughs because Nadine has crashed Hollywood and makes faces at the public, but she hasn't lost her good nature. If ever you hear a timid knock at your door, and when you open the door you see a pile of contraptions of every shape and size, look down under the stuff and there you'll see a high pressure salesman by the name of John Doe Jacobs. On down the list of J's we find a great society lady, the former Miss Irene Johnston. She married a very wealthy widower and is traveling all over Europe. CContinued on next page! PROPHECY fContinued from preceding pagej Rowenna Larson has attained her heart's desire. She has a sweet little cottage, and in the summer the roses bloom around the door. She and her hus- band, P. T., are very happy. The M's are missing, I am afraid- No, I believe I have found one. It's the little blond, Jerry Mead. She has taken up a very fine career. She is the clothing advisor in the present big city of Palmyra. Gladys Powell, now located near Houston, Texas, lives a very happy life with her Senor. Gladys still has a smile for every one, despite her seven children. Walter Raleigh is driving a truck for the St. Louis Live Stock Commission. He is very happy and devoted to his job, but sometimes he has one of his MoodyU spells. Next in line in the 1950 census book is the little red head, Mary Richmond. She is now taking the No Cut Can Open- er company route. She says it is the swellest thing she has seen since she saw Donald Brockschmidt. Jack Rothweiler has run for Congress three times now and each time was de- feated by only a very .small majority. He says the next time he runs he is sure of winning because now he has Justice of the Peace, Martha Louise White, backing h.m in his political campaign. He thinks he has a sure chance of winning the elec- tion. He says that he intends to intro- duce a bill barring alimony. Miss Helen Schaeffer is now in the opera. She has sung everything from Yankee Doodle to Golden Siipperf' Helen has traveled all over the world, and has been in many operas. There are so many S's in this Census book I can hardly tell which one to take next. Oh! here's one that looks inter- esting. Mr. Jocky H, Schmidt. It seems that Mr. Schmidt went to Hollywood to enter one of his prize pigs in the movies, but he became so interested in Bing Crosby's horses that he has sold his pig and is now riding as Bing's jockey. He says he's sure Bing's horses will win from now on. The census taker seems to have tried to cover a large area of land in this 1950 census, for I find that he has traveled way down South to the tobacco land, where he picks up Jim Summers as a tobacco Auctioneer on the Lucky Strike program. Don't be surprised if you hear him sometime when you tune in your radio. True to form, Noble Slates, who was the successful editor of the 1940 Search- light, is now editing the Palmyra In- quirer, a very profitable paper. He re- ports he has a circulation of 50,000 which is nearly the entire population of Pal- myra. Hortense Voepel is very apt to be seen in any place where there may be an antique hidden. Hortense is married now. She is also a well known leader in her community. Miss Lucille Widebrook and Donald Ward have been running a chain of stores for the past few years. They are quite famous stores, but are due for a greater rise, if Walter Winchell's prophecy is correct. The stores are known as the Soup to Nuts stores. On down the list of W's we find that Miss Louise C. White is now a member of the Palmyra High School faculty. She is teaching English. Miss White also is interested in horticulture and has im- proved many flowers and fruits. Oh! I'm nearly to the end of this poor old census book. Only one name left, Miss Frances E. Yeager. Miss Yeager is now dean of a very popular girls' sc-hool. Miss Yeager, it is rumored, may start a college for boys in the near future. Looking up from the book, the girl said in surprise Why those are the names of the Palmyra High School graduating class of 1940. But there were only 32 names, I am sure there were 33 in that class. I believe the president's name, Dick Schaller, is missing. As the census taker walked away he smiled and said Who do you think I am, 'Confucious'?

Not only do they have shoes, but they have short pumps and even hose. while they drag trains behind them. They also attract attention with puffs and muf- flers and sometimes they refuse to work.
