LOXVER LE-FT PHOVPO: Students in physics class perfonrn experiment. LOWER RIGHT PHOTO: Class discussion in soclal problems class. Although some members of the class of 1942 are being graduated with only one year of mathematics in hifh school, members of the class of 1943 will be required to present one year ot algebra and one year of geometry for gradua- tion and lower classmen must have three years of high school mathematics. The present re- quirements are general mathema- tics in the ninth grade, algebra in the tenth grade and plane geome- try in the eleventh grade. Fresh- men have made a general re-view of fractions, studied simple graphs and started to study algebra. So- phomores have made a thorough, rather leisurely study of algebra through quadratic equations. The geometry course had been built around the base propositions of the College Examination Board. Science as Webster defines it is knowledge of principle of facts: however, in high school general science, bl-oolgy. physics and chem- istry are generally incduded in the term, science. The majority of students believe that these courses are among the most difficult courses offered in high school. It is undesirably true that these courses require as much if not more actual thinking than any other course offered in high school.. When taking oneof the-se subjects it is absolutely essential that you study, 'but your efforts are by no means uncompensated efforts. You can think of count- less numbers of instances when the beneficial qualities you com- prehended lnom these courses were of use to you. Social science courses include general history in the tenth grade, United States History and govern- ment in the eleventh grade, eco- nomics, psychology and social problems in the twelfth grade. The-se subjects have geen taught this year by Mr. Dory, Mr. Hem- 'hera and Miss Olson. The general history class com- pleted a number of interesting projects in connection with their study of ancient and modern his- tory. Drawings, original newspa- pers of various periods, soap carv- ings, illustrated time charts and other activities made by individ- uals in the class were exhibited at the Iowa Council for the social studies, meeting in connection with the Iowa State Teacher-'s As- sociation in Des Moines, and aroused much favorable comment. The social problems class has made a. number of investigative studies in connection with this subject. They completed charts of their Family Trees and will finish additions of projects in the home and community planning. In the lour year program of' English courses offered in Park- ersburg high school, the freshmen and sophomores have a thorough review of the fundamentals of grammar and t.heme writing. They make a study ot spelling, diction, punctuation, capitalization and some literature. English and American literature comprise the major portion ot the work covered in the junior class, The seniors had a comprehen- sive course in grammar the first semester and studied the funda- mentals of journalism the second semester. Fundamentals of gram- mar, diction, speech, spelling, vo- cabulary, written letter of ap- plication, research theme, and the essay were stressed in grammar. Study of the newspaper, news stories. feature stories, editorials, vocabulary -building, headlines, leads were some of the topics cov- ered in journalism. They had charge of the school news and the school annual the second semester. COMMERCIAL DEPARTMENT UPPER LEFT AND UPPER CENTER: -Typing class, UPPER RIGHT: Jeanne Moore, office secretary. LOVSAER LEFT: Shorthand class. LOWER CENTER: Book- keeping clalsa LOWER RIGHT: Frances Dresselhuis at ditto machine. The commercial courses under the supervision of Mr. E. J. Hem- bera included Office Practice. Shorthand, Typing and Bookkeep- ing. The Office Practice course was offered to seniors who had form- erly taken shorthand and typing. Included in this course was: Sten- ographlc work consisting-of taking :dictation and transcription, a. briet study of the mechanics of a busi- ness letterg answering lettersg personal qualifications, and pro- npe-r conduct for office workersg the use of relerence books: com- mercial paper: filing and alpha- betlsing and a brief study of Business and Office Organization. The typing class consisted of twenty juniors. The main purpose of the course was to type at a moderate rate of speed. Accuracy was stressed throughout the year. The average typing speed' was forty-six words a minute. The highest rate attained was seventy words a'mln'u.te in a filteen min- ute speed test. In the bookkeeping class, the entire bookkeeping procedure was discussed with both personal and business practice sets -used. Such time saving devices as the colum- nar Journals we-re studied. The formal financial statements, com- mercial papers including notes, time and sight drafts and trade acceptances were' also studied. This course also included the study of bookkeeping for such professions as -- dentists, doctors, CLASS PROPHECY 'Advice to the Lovelorn' Dept. Seattle Daily News Seattle, Washington May 16, 1952. Dear Eunlllce, Your asked me in your last let- ter lf I had kept in touch with the memfbers of the class. Becamlse I have just sent out the last of boday's letters and have time to spare, I will try to tell you what I have learned of them. Jack Schuck has a very fasci- nating job, He is broadcasting 7 A. M., reducing exercises over a National Hook-up. Harold Heffner is employed by the Big Mac Over-all company. He is a moldel for stout sizes. And what do you think? Just last week Frances Dresselhuis be- came Mrs, Tommy Manville, the 11th. Youufve probably heard that Joe Trey is the inventor of this year's greatest incentive to saving - a rulbber piggy bank so children can fatten the pig as they save. He is unmarried, but says he is still lawyers and farmers. Partner- ships and corporations were lbrieffly discussed. Forms were used for all the phases of fbookke-e-ping, thus en- albling the .students to grasp the practical advantages of this course. looking for the right girl. Fame and fortune have come to at least one of our classmates. Harold Bergman is the owner of the greatest money-making horse in history, Flux-ry-Zoot, this y98,l',S Kentucky Derby winner. A Berdyne Nicklaus was a June bride of '42 and tells me Helen Doescher just returned lrom h-er fifth trip to Reno. John Behnke is selling maga- zines-stlll trying to work his way through college. When I last visited Parkersburg I found Kathryn Bronsema is liv- ing on a farm near there. She and her husband are the proud par- ents of twins. I also learned that Frances Schuck Kwon the Butler Coulnty pie baking contest. CShe's had plenty of practice-, no doubt.l Leuie Korte is a taxi driver. fParkersburg has grown consid- erably in population, you know.J Claude Harrison is a chef in a popular N. Y. night club, where Humphrey's Hotsie 'I'otsie's are playing this season. Miles musical ability has made him a. favorite with the N. Y. hep cats. Notre Dame's second Knute Rockne is none other than Kin- zey Reeves. Fred Everts is a. coffee taster for the Maxwell House company. Just the other day I met Irma Van Hauen.

Soon after graduation Dorothy DeGroote Went to Mexico where she is now living on a ranch. Avis Hagen is a, metropolitan opera singer. Fred Cirksena is a. keeper in one of Chica,go's largest zoos. And you'll never guess what occupa- tion Ruth Kemmerer chose. She :is raising purebred canaries on a small farm in Florida. Much of Jeanne Moore's time is spent in the air. Her job is that of an air stewardess. Ruth Tjelbkes is BJ matron in an orphanage in St. Joseph, Missouri and her husband, Don Conslldline, is a candlidate for senator in the coming election. Remember Kay Dausener? She is studying art abroad. Did you see the pi'ctJuu'e of Americafs most beautilvull baby contest winner in the last issue of Life magazine? It was Frances Akkerman's youngest child. ' An item :ln last night's news tells me you are billed as a blues singer at the Silver Pheasant this week.

The settings were in the Cossack camp at sunset where Princess Tatiolia was he- ing held captive and in the 'l'sar's pal- ace. Moscow. Tatiana., Princess of Russiid, was held for ransom by the Cossacks. Although she was helrl captive her triends were too cowardly to come to her rescue. Vwslar. chlet' of Cossacks, went to the Tsar's court to get the ransom and finding hllmself admiring: the Tsar, offers to help with his Cos:-:ack forces, fight the common enemy, the Tartars. The Tsrtars were defeated and the two victorious peoples pledged peace. Events showed that Vaslnr was the son of the Tsar, and since he was of royal birth, Tatiana. who had fallen ln love wih him, could marry him. The music, which proved very fitting, was arranged from Tsche'isowski. The thirty seven students that took part ln the performance did a wonderful job. The piece of work was under direction of Miss Arends.

The following appeared in the Eclipse: The audience who attended the Junior Class play Aunt 'Susie Shoots The Works at the school auditorium Friday evening were highly entertained. Much favorable comment after the performance should be grati- fying to the cast as well as their idirector, N. E. Hyland. In fact, it was one of the best performances given by any high school group in some time and should be 'incen- tive for the entertaining groups yet to be heard. It would be hard to -pick any one member of the cast as out- standing. Dorothy Anderson as Aunt Susie-, June Scbwerdtfeger, as her niece did exceedingly well in the leading parts. The comedy roles were taken by Josephine Smit as a colored maid and John DeGroot as a colored servant and caused many a chuckle, especially when love tablets were given out by the colored servant. Celia Tebben, a neighbor, Lois Goldhorn, a female lawyer, Eu- gene Haack, a. successful business man were other parts well taken. But of course we must have the cause of the mystery which parts were Dortrayed by Wilbur Engel- kes and Betty Lee Becker as Ma- dame Zola. Last but not least for a, successful concluuslon, the lover. so much misunderstood, Edward Johnson and Donna Rutledge as a maid, captured the culprits. A happy surprise, and to show their appreciation of his work with them, the cast presented Mr. Hyland with a set of lovely book ends. Between acts several musical numbers were given. DECLAMATORY Those who were out for 'de- clamatory and their selections are as follows: Oratorical - June Schwerdtfeger, The American Way and Betty Becker, Golden Windowsng Dramatic - Pauline Simon, Sounding Brass, Mildred Heerts, Eyes and Evelyn Jean Van Eman, Christmas Eve in a.

AGRICULTURE Vocational agriculture work of- fered this year was divided into four units. Animal husbandry is oifefred to the freshmen: larm crops, open to sophomores: farm shop offer-ed to juniors and seniors, and adult night school offered to the farm- ers of the community. Each student ol' the day school groups is required to have an animal or plant project. A record book was given each student whereby they keep an accurate record of their project. Tryouts were held among' the sophomore groups for places on a dairy judging team to re-present the school in the contest held at the Waterloo Dairy Cattle Con- gress. The team selected was Raymond Diekman, Harry DeGroote, Harry Rieken, and Bobby Stickley, alter- nate. This team placed 10 classes of dairy stock and ranked Sth of 104 schools represented. Harry 'DeGroote was high man on the team with a score of 442 out of a. possible 500. The team made their best placings on the Guernsey breed ot -cattle Plans are under way to enter a. livestock judging team and a crops judging team in the Iowa High School Agricultural Congress, May 14 and 15, Last year our livestock team was made up of Frank Mc- Dowell, Raymond Diekman, Harry DeGroote, Harry Rieken as alter- nate. ANIMAL HUSBANDRY Thirteen ibcys enrolled for this class. The -course is used as an 'introduction to the entire voca- tional agricultural department. They have studied the care and management of the swine enter- prise. This work was followed by several weeks work studying the results that might be obtained with various projects. In this Way each -boy had some technical in- formation which he could use in .selecting his project. Several poultry projects were chosen and for that reason they studied the care and management of poultry as their next unit. They followed the poultry study with work in the selection, care, and management of dairy cattle. The judging work was postponed for more suitable weather later y Lin the school year. The care of beef cattle, horses, and sheep were taken up in the second semester They also reviewed special units of our first semesters studies as they fit into the particular season ot the year. A co-operative poultry project was established by Lowell Jones, Bob Watson and .Tack Pierce, all members of the animal husbandry class. Many problems developed from this project, but it provided first hand experience in laying flock care. FARM SH-OP It was necessary to keep the shop class as small as possible due to lack of equipment, Filteen boys reported and tour were in- terested in other courses, leaving eleven in the Course. This is the first year for this branch of the Vocational Agricul- ture Course and it shows promise of being the most ipopular. The original plan was to have the course offered in the iormer Krull blacksmith shop. This Dian was discarded! when it was lound that We would secure labor costs for the construction of a suitable addition adjacent to the high school building. The course is built upon the re- pair needs of the farm The class members list-ed all the farm re- rpair jobs they could and endeav- ored to group them into jobs a farmer would hire done and jobs a Farmer should be able to do him- self, The class worked in the build- ing until it was sold and then as- sisted in salvaging tools and sup- plies which will -be taken to the new building when it is complet- ed. Six members of the class gained much first hand eptperience in bulhdling constnuction, by assisting with construction of the new shop. VOCATIONAL AGRICULTURE FARM 'CROPS Fifteen sophomores enrolled for the work in Farm Crops. Their studies throughout the year cen- tered on timely crop activity for the season. The most time was devoted to corn production. They studied variety tests, production of hybrid seed and cultural prac- tices of this crop. Other crops were studied in less dletail but with an aim of having a knowledge of the crop possibilities of this section. Early in the year their record lbooik forms were studied and plans were made for the carrying out of a. productive project for each class member. They made an effort to determine our costs and probable returns with several dif- ferent types of projects. The in- formiatioan thus collected, plus the boys' situation at home were tak- en into consideration in the final selection of a project. NIGHT SCHOOL The farmers' discussion groups were carried on again this year. The first meeting was heldi Jan- uary fifth and succeeding meet- ings each Monday night until March ninth. Subjects studied were as fol- lows: Income tax report and farm schedeules. Reaching our dairy goal. Farm record books. Keeping farm records. Hog feeding and mgt. for 1942. War adjustments in farming program. New and desirable crop varie- ties. Livestock diseases. Farm building ventilation. Poultry care and management. They had a 30 per cent increase in attendance with 43 as the high- est attendance for one meeting. Carl Fresenborg was elected as president of the organization and Elton Guinn, treasurer and secre- tary. W UPPER PHOTO: Fla.rmer's Night School.

HOME MAKING DEPARTMENT The home. making ldiepartment is made. up of three classes this year, the ninth grade girls taking first. year work and the tenth and tenth and tw-elftlr gi-I:-idle girls baking second year work. The courses ofered are similar to those of last year. This year of 1941-42 has seen new equipment added: a metal filing cabinet, 24 attractive as well as sturdy chairs and last put not least an electric sewing machine with pinking attachment. The girls in the' department made excellent use of the machine during the clothing construction classes ol the first semester. At the close of the clothing c-n- struction unit a clothing exhibit of our sixty garments was held. To this the mothers, the faculty and the Junior High girls were in- vited a.nd were served cot'-ee and cookies made by the girls.
