SMALL,B. S. M. S. Congratulations to each of you! This is your commence- ment time with all its implications and memories. Anyone of us who stops to look at life will be struck by how faithfully the pattern of human life follows the cycle of the seasons. A study of this parallel makes it easier to realize the significance of the passing of time -- first a sophomore, then a junior and at long last a SENIOR. Each season has its different character- istics. This has been most interestingly portrayed in your pres- ent yearbook. In conclusion, may I suggest that we strive to aim high in hope and work thus bringing, Fame to the name of Pittsburg High May her memories never die, Loyal sons we will be to eternity, Hail to thee, Pittsburg High.

He Was also powerful on his plunges through the line, and fast on the end sweeps. Ted really shone when he broke into the secondary of an enemy. He was also a fine kicker. He is no doubt one of the best backs ever to carry a pigskin for PHS. DON MACHEERS, Gabby was the unsung hero of the Dragon squad this year. Don's splendid block- ing and hard clean tackles made him one of the best blocking backs in the S. E. K. Don in our opinion was the 'best line backer in the league and the best defensive player of the year for the Purple eleven RAY KNAUP, Ray played halfback and line backer this Year for the Dragons. Ray is a mighty' rough 'boy on both offense and defense, and one of the mainstays in the Dragon team next year. BILL RINEHART, Bill was the Toe for the Dragons this year. Bill not only kicked punts and extra points but also called signals and threw many passes. Bill is a junior and should be back for a position at first string quarterback next year, DAN MARTIN, Dan, playing the center position on the Purple Eleven, was always on hand to spur the team into action with his fine playing ability. Dan kept the spirits high and played a steady game of ball. He is a senior and will be lost through grad- uation. DANNY SLAVENS, Slavens was one of the mighty Mites plugging up the hole on defense this year. His offensive blocking and fine defense play will make his position difficult to fill. He is a senior and will be lost through graduation. ROGER HALLIDAY, Rage, 155 pounds of fighting guard, was a big factor in the Dragon line this year. Roger, shining on 'both offense and de- fense will be greatly missed next year as he grad- uates. MARVIN WHITE, Marv started out as Center this year but 'moved to guard early in he season. White was especially good on defense when he dropped back as a third line blocker, White is a junior and will be a big asset to the team next year. LARRY DOUGLAS, Ears was the big boy on the end this year. Larry had a knee injury that bothered him all year, yet in spite of it he played a splendid brand of ball all year. Larry is a senior and his position will be more than hard to fill next year. NEIL NELSON, Neil was one of the big main- stays in the Dragon line this year. Nelson, a Big Boy made it mighty rough on any one who thought of going over his tackle position. Nelson is a senior, and will be lost through graduation. RAY McDANIEL, Ray filled the Brains posi- tion on the Purple Dragon squad this year. He was not only good on calling signals but could hit hard on both offense and defense. Ray also was one of the Arms in the Dragon offense. His accurate passing was the cause of many touchdowns for the team. Ray is a senior and will 'be lost through grad- uatlon.. I 4 ,793 H 1, ? ZZ? I LOREN PHELPS, Loren was the little blond boy from Lamar, Mo., this year. He played fullback and was very useful to the Dragons. He will be lost through graduation. BOB McVICKERS, Bob was a hard hitting defensive end this year. He not only shone on defense but was a mighty nifty offensive end. Bob is a junior, has lots of fight and will be back for a first string next year. BOB VARNER, White Bob Varner was classed as one of the best in S. E. K. He was mighty fast on those end rounds and' could be depended on as a very cagable pass receiver. Varner is a junior and will be ack on the Dragon squad next year. CECIL WILSON, Red was one of the big uns in the Dragon offense this year. He received a knee injury early in the season but really showed his stun' later in the year. Cecil is a junior and surely will help the Purple gridsters next year. DON KIRK, Dcpey all 205 pounds of him was undoubtedly a powerful mainstay in the Dragon defense. Kirk was called upon to carry the ball several times during the season, and did a very good job. Kirk was our choice for all S. E. K. Don is a senior, and will be greatly missed next year. EUGENE ZIMMERMAN, ZIM played a stellar role at tackle this year. Zim was hard hitting gn defense and was a good blocker on offense. This is his 2nd and last year of football for the Dragons. His position will be hard to fill next year. BILL MARLIER, Bill was a newcomer this year. but proved he had plenty of stuti' on the ball. Bill was a good man on both offense and defense.

Bill played substitute center for the Dragons this year. He was a good blocker on defense and a good defensive line backe . R d ill t b back with the Dragons next season. ee W no e BILL NELSON, Bill held down the position cj guard. Nelson wasone of the speediest. guards on the team.

The national debate question was Resolved: That the federal government should provide a system of complete medical care available to all citizens at public expense. Although the class was small and the debaters in'- experienced, Pittsburg ranked near the top in tournament standings. PHS debate teams attended three tournaments which were held at Topeka, Pittsburg, and Kansas City. Two two-man teams composed of Marilyn Markham, Carol Burke, and Russell Francis, with Donna Ross and Wanda Wall as alternates, were sent to the Topeka tournament, winning seven out of twelve debates. K.S.T.C. was host to Kansas, Missouri, and Oklahoma debaters in First team December. Two four-man teams from PHS participated. members, Mary Jean Periman and Wanda Wall on the affirmative, with Carol Burke and Marilyn Markham upholding the negative, won five out of six debates. Affirmative speakers Shirley Monroe and Jack Bellino with Russell Francis and Donna Ross on the negative were winners in three out of six contests. The same four-man teams went to the Wyandotte High School tourney at Kansas City, chalking up ten victories in all. Several non-decision debates were held with K. S. T. C. and Baxter Springs debaters as opponents. Contest points earned for the season were as follows: Carol Burke 64, Marilyn Markham 64, Russell Francis 59, Wanda Wall 54, Donna Ross 51, Mary Jean Periman 42, Jack Bellino 26, and Shirley Monroe 26. Highest team standing was earned by the negative team of Carol Burke and Marilyn Markham, who won eleven out of fifteen debates. They were seconded by Russell Francis, alternately teamed with Donna Ross and Wanda Wall, winning eight out of fifteen contests. With all eight debaters eligible for membership, the group reorganized the Pittsburg chapter of the National Forensic League, national honorary society for high school debaters. PHS debaters have made their school proud of them this year. With more and experienced debaters, 1947-48 should see Pittsburg well on the way to' debate championship. dy do you look B Ju ' LAGQC i L ,, '17 Wim'- . If br.

Melvin Boswell, Student Council President, gave the welcoming ad- dress. Roll Call of classes was given by Mary Lou Latty. Arthur Del- mez, Student Council President last year, gave the response from A Graduate. Then the girI's double trio sang two novelty numbers. Mr. Green made a few remarks and introduced the platform guests. Following this feature the chorus sang a few numbers.

This year has given the Student Council many opportunities to carry out its primary functions of building good citizenship and cooperat- ing with the administration wherever possible. The first activity, the all-school election, gave everyone the opportunity to select the officers of his or her choice. Final tabulations showed that Melvin Boswell was chosen Presidentg Joan Hughes, Vice- Presidentg and Mary Lou Latty, Secretary-Treasurer. In a simple yet im- pressive ceremony these officers were installed along with the members and alternates, who were chosen by their home rooms to represent them in the Council. Miss Waltz and five members of the Council attended the Student Council Conference at Chanute Nov. 22, 1946. Those members attending were Melvin Boswell, Joan Hughes, Mary Lou Latty, Don Overman, and Maurice Chrysler. Dr. Harry McKown, noted author and lecturer, con- ducted the Conference. Pittsburg High's annual Homecoming was presented by the Council on Dec. 20, 1946. Many expressed the thought that this was the best Homecoming PHS has ever had. After the program, the 'students and grads all adjourned to the RJHS gymnasium, where a student-graduate dance was held. - This year the officers of the Council served on the High School Activ- ity Finance Committee, and the Assembly Committee with teachers. The committees for the year were as follows: Activities Committee, with Don Overman as chairmang Social Committee, with Joan Hughes as chairman: Publicity Committee, led by Mary Lou Latty as chairmang and Courtesy Committee, headed by Molly Jo Woods. sponsored were Sadie Hawkins Day, Membership Drive and the Infantile Other projects the council Arbor Day, Junior Red Cross Paralysis ticket sales. Members of the Council assisted faculty members at all the football and basketball games and assisted in the regional basketball tournament. Naomi Morey, PHS senior, was chosen Football Queen of 1946 by the Dragons. She was crowned by Ted Hoffman acting captain of the team for the evening, at a special coronation ceremony dance, sponsored by the Council. Naomi is the first football queen PHS has had, and it is hoped that it will be carried on in future years as a PHS tradition by the Council. Her attendants were Mary Beth Tanner and Harriet Hil- boldt who were escorted by Melvin Boswell, Student Council President, and Frankie DeGasperi, Senior Cheer-header. The sponsor of the Council is Miss Madge Waltz, who has given freely of time and labor to make the Council a steady, well-balanced, smooth- working organization. The Council and the students of PHS all owe Miss Waltz a vote of thanks for her untiring work. Ili-Y Mr. Huffman, sponsor of Jim Welch-J. L. Hutchinson ,, Bm Ne'- John Gibw v Egger . .

PITTSBURG SENIOR HI-Y, 1946-47 Pittsburg Senior Hi-Y, primarily a religious and service organization, has for its aim: to create, maintain, and extend throughout home, school. and community, high standards of Christian character. Hi-Y operates under the chapter plan. Three meet- ings a month are held in separate chapter rooms, under respective leadership of Bible Study, World Brotherhood and Service chairman, chosen at first and sponsors. Once a month, meeting is held, the three leadership. presidents the past year have Don Overman and Roger Halli- of year by cabinets a combined general chapters rotating in The three chapter been, Ray McDaniel, day. At the opening of school, Hi-Y helped in the Annual Hi-Y and Y-Teen Mixer, jointly sponsored by the two organizations under flood-lights of Hutchinson field. Boys and girls of the school were invited guests. Hi-Y has eighty members this year, a fine cross- section of nearly all activities of school. Cur three chapters were sponsored by Mr. Elton Cline, Mr. John Biddle and Mr. Claude I. Huffman, who also served as vhaiirinun of sponsors. Mr. Earl Ludlum sponsored Roosevelt Junior High Hi-Y, with Mr. Fred Lampron sponsoring Lakeside Junior Hi-Y. The Hi-Y Advisory Council consisted of Mr, Allen Gardner, local city Y secretary, Rev. Clyde Askins, president ministerial alliance. Mr. John I.. Hutchin- son, principal emeritus. Mr. Clyde Hartford, State worker and Mr. C. I. Huffman, with Mr. Finis Green, principal, sewing as chairman of Advisory Council. Nov. 11, Pittsburg entertained District Hi-Y Convention, with Dr. Eugene Dawson, Pittfburg K. S. T. C., as principal speaker. Det. 12, the Hi-Y joined Y-Teens in carol singing. Marilyn Seymour led the singing and Roger Hul- liday presided. Hi-Y also sponsored an all school Thanksgiving program, with Rev. Askins as speaker and Ray McDaniel as chairman. Pittsburg had a delegation of five senior Hi-Y and three junior Hi-Y members with two sponsors at the first Summer Camp Wood session located near Elmdale, Kansas. Max Lundquest, Billy Stand, and Ben Abington from Junior High and Lee Jack Woods. Billy Brumbaugh, John Grisham, Marion Huffman, Paul Farris, and Don Overman from Sen- ioi High. Mr. Fred Jarvis and Mr. C. I. Huffman went as sponsors, Mr. .lohn Biddle made two trips to camp and back to help in transportation. At camp, Ben Abington was chosen as Camp Chap- lain, while Don Overman had the honor to present the enlarged portrait of Mr. Clyde Hartford to Mr. Howard Kusterman, Camp Wood director. The portrait, indirectly lighted, was immediately installed in the northwest wing of Hutch assembly Hall where it occupies a commanding view of the hall. Mr. Hartford received a tremendous ovation from friends and delegates present. After a few words of appreciation. he gave to Pittsburg, for their Hi-Y room, a smaller replica of the picture they had enlarged. As known by many patrons, Pittsburg Hi-Y sug- gcsted and later sponsored the move to present the portrait of Mr. Hartford to Camp Wood as a per- petual ntemorial i-ir the out-standing work he has done with boys of Hi-Y, particularly of Camp Wood, fri' the past thirty-five years. Money was raised by the varicus Hi-Y organizations of Kansas, Pitts- turg sponsoring and perfecting the project. It is true, many fine boys do not join Hi-Y. How- ever, the boys who join are a dynamic group, pri- marily interested in service and in the religious lletf' torment of all boys in school.

This year 164 girls became members to worship together and enjoy the good times and fellowship. The last year has been a busy one for the organization. Activities got off to a fine start with the installation of new members and officers in an impressive recognition service. As a climax, the girls, dressed in white and holding lightefl candles, formed a circle and sang the Y-Teen theme song, Follow the Gleam. Members of Hi-Y and Y-Teen enjoyed an evening of fun together at their annual mixer on Hutchinson Field last fall. For the first time in recent years, the local Y-Teen club was awarded the official minimum standards certificate for fulfilling the obliga- tions set by the state board. Fifteen girls attended the Y-Teen conference at Neodesha to learn more about the purposes of the club and make friends with Y-Teeners from other towns. The Pittsburg group was complimented on the effective worship service presented at the conference by the worship committee. Hearts were warmed with new friendships during the Valentine season when every Y-Teener found a new sister. Girls who had been members of the club before drew names of the new members for a little sister, writing to her for a week without disclosing their identity. The mystery week was climaxed by a big-little sister party, planned by the social committee. As a yearly service to the whole school, Y-Teen presented a beautiful Easter service of sacred music and scripture in an all school assembly. Many mothers became acquainted with the purposes and ideals of the Y-Teen organization at the mother's tea this spring. In the flower decorated little Theater, Y-Teen members presented a short program and served refreshments to their guests. After such a busy and successful year, Y-Teen is looking forward to greater things in 1948. r' an 5 n.. x 5-wfifefg Sui 'gn V!! .-3. 3 gfff .--41,-'fr ,f E5 gg 'f f 3'-fs: ,513 ,gf -ti 5 ,W J ' xxx! 4 Ju,-. rw- ,if 'Q 8 2:354- xii? . ji?

Class Prophecy Tires screeched as a long orange limousine skidded to a stop in front of the We've Foimd Everything But The Lost Chord Detective A- gency. A tall lanky man got out, paid the driver and took the steps to the building four at a time, halting before the head operative, J. ELDON HARMON, Sing Sing graduate No. 6794831. I-Ie's missing! He's gone! He's not there! Who '! ' inquired the detective sleepily. DANIEL SLAVENS, president of Pennsylvania University. You have to help me find him! Just a minute--who are you 1 Pm DAN TOUCHDOWN MARTIN. Oh, yes, the great football star. We'll do our best, Mr. Martin. Just a minute while I look under his name in the files. Yes, here it is. Hmmn, Presi- dent of PHS senior class of '47. Perhaps it would be best to look up his old PHS classmates to see if they know his whereabouts. I'll call my special agent, DELORES ROSS, and we'll get started on the search right now. Before beginning their search, the crack detec- tives decided on an evening of relaxation at the Metropolitan presentation of the opera Faust Imagine their surprise on seeing BILL BENNETT playing Mephistopheles opposite the leading lady, MARY ELIZABETH COLVIN. JOY ROSE, woman music critic of the New York Times gave the per- formance a complimentary press review, giving the young stars a good start on the road to success. Some of the important people they saw were the socially prominent MARILYN MARQUARDT and her doctor husbandg EDNA TAYLOR VANDER- BOLT, oil fortune heiressg and JOHN SCOTT, the the famous musician. The detectives were sorry to miss ROSEMARY McCLUSKEY'S piano concert at Carnegie Hall the next night, but time was flying, so they hopped an airplane bound for the middle west. The air- hostess, TEDDA ROBINSON, spent so much time in the cabin flirting with the pilot, BOB BISHOP, that the passengers did not receive much service. This was to be expected as she was only substi- tuting for the regular hostess, BETTY SMITH, who had dropped into MARY LOUISE GIBSON'S penthouse for a visit when the plane flew over the Empire State Building. The plane was crowded with important people. Among them were CATHERINE McNEW, U. S. Secretary of State and the two great research workers, ONA MARIE WRIGHT and MARION HUFFMAN, who were on their way to the west to seek the intangible Kilroy. BONNY MILLER and BOB WILLARD were having a hard time keeping their ten children under control for the long trip to California. From time to time ROBERTA EVAN'S deep masculine chuckle could be heard as she read t.he humorous portions of MARILYN MARKHAM'S poignant best seller, I Am the Missing Link. Halfway between New York and Chicago, the plane dipped a wing in salute to a special Army Air Corps transport plane piloted by EUGENE TIMS and carrying its precious burden, the first woman president of the U. S., MONA ROGERS, with her two body guards, CLYDE HULL and DON KIRK. It was raining as the plane landed in Chicago and the airport was nearly deserted, but for the glamour girl, BARBARA WINTLE, who shook her long brown curls in the rain and winked coyly at the head operative. He was oblivious to her efforts, however, as he hurried his companion across the field to the waiting taxi and told the driver, CLYDE STRICKLAND, to head for the MERLE BANDOUX Honeymoon Hotel. Settled in the hotel, they picked up copies of the Chicopee Daily Journal, edited by JOAN BAB- COCK. The front page was filled with a stupendous scoop by the Katty Korrespondents, MARY LOU LATTY and MARILYN MOSIER about the life of natives on Osawatomie Hill. Turning to the sports page, they were amazed to read that LEE BROWN had done the impossible and bowled a game of 400 for an all-time high. Heading the page was the obituary notice of coach LARRY DOUGLAS, who passed out when his Oklahoma A. and M. team won their game from Chicopee 108 to 107. LOREN PHELPS, Coach of the Army, and BOB WAGGEN- ER, Notre Dame coach, were involved in a row when the former contended that Army would have won from Notre Dame if DON MACHEERS, Notre Dame halfback, had not bitten the Army quarter- back, RAY McDANIEL'S ankle so hard that the latter had to be taken out of the game. The Notre Dame coach was aided in the battle by HARVEY MASON, coach of the Navy team. Before retiring, the two agents tumed on the radio to get later news than that offered by the Chicopee Journal. On hearing the eminent meterologist, DON WHITE, announce that the next day would be fair and warmer, they immediately put their raincoats and rubbers in readiness. They listened to the sports announcer, EUGENE BENNER, tell of the new record set for the circle by runner RUSSELL FRANCIS, and snapped the radio off just as BETTY BROWN finished her household comments. Starting their search bright and early, the next morning the two sleuths met ELMINA ALEXAN- DER and her quadruplets leaving STANLEY SIMP- SON'S Whitee-Didee Laundry. They stopped at the ROLAND SHARP - HAROLD SHAW printing shop to have some Man Wanted signs made to aid in the capture of DICK KING, accused of polygamy. Three clerks, ALMA JEAN INGLE, LAVON FIELDS, and EVAJEAN ROBBINS, who were chat- ting in the front of the Woolworth store directed them to the main office. LOUISE HUMBARD, the N receptionist, took their names, and BARBARA LEH- MAN, office stenographer, ushered them into the president's office where they surprised that execu- tive, DON OVERMAN, with two pretty secretaries, BONNIE JOHNSON and MARY BETH TANNER, one on each knee. While they were in conference, the Marshall Field's ready-to-wear buyer, PATSY PAT- TERSON, rushed in to say that the Woolworth buy- er, FANITA WEAVER, had stolen from Marshall Fields the design that the leading designers, EL- NORA COONROD, ROSE MARY CRESS, and NOR- MA TETER had just collaborated on an evening dress with no back, no midriff, no shoulders, no skirt, and no front! After this friendly visit, the two decided to have their pictures taken and went to a studio, only to be thrown out by the photographer, GROVER ROY- S'ION, who was having too much fun photographing the shapely model, MARJORIE MULTHAUP, to give them any of his time. Walking along the street after this rebuff, the two were seized and asked to be witnesses at the double wedding of MARGARET PLAGENS, MAR- JORIE TALLEY and their ex-sailors. Justice of the Peace, ENNIS MARTIN, performed the ceremony. Feeling a bit bedraggled after all this activity, the sleuthess visited NAOMI MOREY'S You'll Never Look the Same beauty salon where FRAN- CES WILLEY gave her a finger wave and dietician VIOLA LIPPETT gave nutrition advice. Meimwhile, the sleuth had spent his time at the library where librarian DOT NAIL had shown him BUDDY HAMM'S latest cartoon book. While he was on his way to the city hall to visit his friend, DEAN WATTS, the public accountant, he was suddenly swept off his feet by DICK FRANCIS, who was fin- ishing his roller skating journey from New York to Chicago. A policeman, JAMES MAJORS, discovered the detective lying in the gutter and immediately called an ambulance. The stretcher bearers, ROL- AND NEVIN and MELVIN WILBERT got the in- vestigator into the ambulance and they careened to- ward the hospital. Regaining consciousness, the detective was sure he had died and he was in heaven, as he found him- self surrounded by beautiful nurses, DOROTHY BRESNICK, RUTH SMITH, LOIS DRAY, and KATHLEEN SWINK. After one feeble wink, he lost consciousness again, but came to when DOC- TOR MOLLY JO WOODS took his pulse. After con- sulting with the specialists, DOCTORS MELVIN BOSWELL and ADOLPH BENEFIELD, she de- cided that he must have complete solitude until she was able to consult DOCTOR DON GINARDI, head of the Mayo Clinic. However, solitude was not so enjoyable as the company of the pretty nurses, so the operative soon found himself quite well enough to leave. Rejoining his companion at the hotel he informed I her of his decision to travel on tc Kansas City that night. Teleph-one operator, BETTY STANDLEE, con- nected them wtih long distance operator DORRIS WILLIAMSON, who put their call through to Kan- sas City, and they made reservations at the GEORGE FORD Hotel. As no seats were available on regular planes, they engaged test pilot RONALD HENRY to fly them in a special plane. As they were ready to leave the airport, they no- ticed two high ranking officers--Navy Commander HERMAN JAMES and Marine Major BOB BAR- NETT--frantically trying to get seats to Kansas City on important government business. The two detectives invited the officers to join them, but dis- aster struck! When they were prepared to take off, the plane would not leave the ground. The crew of mechanics, ROBERT EAGANS, SIDNEY SLOAN, and LEWIS MILLEMAN, quickly repaired the motor, and soon they were on their way. Just before reaching Kansas City, they flew over JOHN GAD- DY'S sweet potato farm. Reaching the hotel, they thought they found' a clue in a suitcase that had been left by a former occupant, but on examining it at the police lab- oratory, lab technician JOAN HUGHES informed them that the owner was not the missing man, but CARL STACY, the radio engineer. After working so hard they decided on an evening of fun, but debated whether to go to Romeo and Juliet starring CAROL BURKE, or to the Kansas City Follies. Having no rotten eggs with them, they set out for the latter. They were amazed to see two PHS grads, HARRIET HILBOLDT and BONNIE SCULLEN, showing their pepsodent smiles in the second row of the chorus. Whistles and catcalls could be heard from the front row where BILL ENGLAND, CHARLES RONDELLI, and BILL WILSON were sitting. They so disturbed the crowd that the bouncer, AUGUST LEFEBRE, finally had to come and throw them out so the show could con- tinue. Early the next morning, the two investigators started on a sightseeing tour, visiting the art gallery, where they viewed the surrealistic painting of BILL BROADHURST and oil portraits by EDNA ZIMMERMAN. At noon they lunched with lawyer HAROLD GOUGH and his glamorous secretary, MARJORY McENTIRE. In the afternoon they visit- ed the Cupid Escort and Matrimonial Agency run by MAURICE CHRYSLER and wife NORMA STOTTS. The place was in an uproar because PATSY EDWARDS, girl escort, insisted that she should have Van Johnson for her private secretary because JOHNNIE GRISHAM, most p0pular male escort, had BEVERLY MATTIVI for his secretary. Leaving the agency to its troubles, the two went to the amusement park, where JOY ARMSTRONG was having fun capturing likely candidates and taking them through the Tunnel of Love. BONNELL TURNBULL'S roller coaster was very popular, -yy--. 17-sq-'-r-ff--r--w r -v,-r'w-'y,.- . --.. . ,W qq-,.-..Y --4..,.. .. ...Y -- v... -- Y - A..v-- few--f -asylum...-.31 , lllu: mainly because of a certain government teacher, who was having so much fun in the front seat. JACKIE BROWN kept going through the fun house, to the delight of RICHARD DAVIS, who gave a Wolf whistle every time she walked over the air vent. The next day, they traveled to the missing man's hometown, Pittsburg, where they found that many changes had been made since their high school days. The old PHS was gone and the glass facades of the ultra modern new school glittered in the sun light. Architect BOB NIFONG and his architectural engineers NEIL OEHME and RAYMOND McCUL- LOUGH had indeed truimphed on the beautiful building. As they opened the door and stepped into the hall they were astonished at the beauty of the interior, decoated by NATTIE JO RODERICK and MARTHA MAE ALBERS in a color scheme of purple and white. When they saw the coal bucket resting in state in a gold trophy case, they knew that coach BOB WALKER'S purple Dragons had trounced Columbus again. Many new faces were seen among the faculty. JOHNETTA ABINGTON was teaching her Spanish students the rhumba, and in the music department MARY HALLMAN was waving her baton in front of the band while CARMEN RUNNELS tried to teach a few dense students the mystery of a piano. Peeping into the typing room, they saw GLEN TUSTIN slaving away trying to pass his typing. BETTY HALL had coached the Amazon Dragons to the SEK football championship, and the school was beginning a week's holiday the next day to celebrate the victory. The two agents had only a short time to get in touch with the missing man's old classmates. They missed seeing FRANK DeGASPERI who was out hunting rabbits with his hound dog and they found that the whole town was gossiping about the way ROGER HALLIDAY was seen at all the hot spots with Miss Fintel. BILL NEER told all the hoary old traveling salesman-farmer's daughter jokes as his wife JEANNINE MOFFATT tried to stop him with no success. EDNA NEAGLES and her husband had gone to a milking party at BILL McCABE'S dairy farm. However, all the '47 grads were not homebodies, but had made a place for themselves in the hard, cold world. Biologist CHARLES MILLER aston- ished the world with his new theory of evolution that man had descended from mice. Of course some hadn't descended yet but there are exceptions to every rule. JUNE PRITCHARD and MAURINE LINTHICUM were drawing for Esquire Magazine. while EUGENE FRANCIS was singing concerts in Europe, accompanied by BETSY CAPUT. MARGARET ROBINSON made the headlines by being elected president of Boys' State and DOLLY ROITZ was sailing as lone passenger on the Queen Elizabeth with only the sailors to keep her company. -. DICK BOWLES, the second Charles Atlas, had the girls swooning at his feet while ELLA MARIE ZEHR, first woman senator of Kansas, captured all the Congressmen with her charms. The whole world acclaimed BILL BUFORD and BILL BRUMBAUGH for their new rocketship that carried world travelers MAXINE ALDEN, MARGY HENDRICKS, and BOB SCALET safely to Mars and back. They were now trying to interest a few hardy adventurers for the first settlement on Mars. So far, WILMA KETTERMAN, DELLA MOSIER, MARDELL BOSWELL and their husbands had vol- unteered for the dangerous experiment. Leaving Pittsburg to the Dragons, the two in- vestigators. headed for California by the southern route, dropping in for dinner at MARGARET HURST'S Texas ranch. Driving across the Arizona desert, they were puzzled by a strange figure fran- tically digging with its shovel in the sand. On closer inspection, they found it was HARVEY GRANDLE, looking for the gun Martin shot the bull with. Before reaching California, they stopped at the Never Say Dam, ten times larger than Boulier Dam, planned by hydraulic engineer DON OERTLE and electrical expert GEORGE RISTAU. On the way to Hollywood, they passed the high-walled CHARLES CI-IANCEY-BILL ANDERSON Training School for Varga Girls. Night watchman GEORGE QUIER would not allow the visitors to enter, so they traveled on to Long Beach where they stopped to dance at the TED HOFFMANN-EUGENE ZIM- MERMAN nightclub. featuring NEIL NELSON'S Tormented Torturers with torch singer DOROTHY RINARD. They soon found the torture was too great and left for Hollywood, where the first sight that greeted their eyes was BE'I'I'Y ANN COLE, trying tb herd all her 25 children across Hollywood and Vine. At the Walt Disney studio, they found CAROL SMITH busily at work drawing carrots for Bugs Bunny. Everything was in a turmoil at the Metro- Goldwyn-Mayer studios-ETHEL DORIS MARTIN had run off with Gregory Peckg GLEN CLUGSTON, Jose Iturbi's successor, and DONNA FENIMORE, gifted contralto, were arguing over who should have top billing in their latest musicalg MARY MARGARET WILD wanted KARL HUDSON as her leading mang and LENA BEVINS was trying to get a part for her twins. Finding no trace of the missing man, the two detectives thankfully left I-Iollywood's uproar and in a plane flew out over the Pacific Ocean. Seeing a movement on one of the tiny islands, they dipped down and there below they saw the man for whom they had searched so long and far. However, they hadn't the heart to disturb him and returned home with their missio-n uncompleted, for the missing president of Pennsylvania University was blissfully eating tropical fruits from the hand of Lana Turner. es E ' :ally Vw z, il In mfsggm 'Mfg . 2 Ls fyla 1' far., ' :avi rw 54X ,B k t r i r fs -s H i , f to Q3 We, the senior ciass ot i9A'T, having, cornnieted our ft high schooi career, wish to ieaye some oi our dearest 2 possessions and pfiyiieges behind.
