An undefeated season brought us the Eastern Michigan League trophy, the MacTaggart trophy and that little brown keg that the Mt. Clemens and Port Huron teams have been fighting over for so long. The main spark plug of the big eleven was Jack McKay, who won the Harry Smith award for the outstanding player of the year and was an All State ' man. Frank Staiger, co-captain with Jack, won the Tubby Mires award for sportsmanship. Gaylord Angelbrandt and Carl Boyd pro- duced many thrills for the crowds by re- ceiving some long passes from McKay and Seeley. Ray will be back with the Big Reds next year and his playing should be something to look forward to. Ed Touma, Russ Norris, Tom Korn, Art Lane and Little Bill Paton were men who made things tough for the opponents with a brick wall line. Jerry Cain was our team ' s automatic Brieske this year and made a multitude of points out of extras. Layle Cunningham showed us how fast he could really travel and accounted for many of our winning points. Chuck Luce, 1-aVern Washington, Stu Winkelman and John Osko are five men who played gtKxi ball but will not return next year. We didn ' t seem to have too much trouble going down the grid for our 236 points. Our closest game was a tough fight with Berkley and our easiest push- over was Grosse Pointe.

The Red and White did ' stand, might well have been the motto of the Laughlin men this season, since they raced down the fltxrr to win the League championship. Although Port Huron won its first game, the few following games didn ' t turn out in its favor. Coach Laughlin, however, capably got the boys used to his fast break style in prompt order, and the boys won all their League games. A1 Goetz starred under the basket on tip-off and pivot shots, after Ben Gorte, Lysle Smith, and Red Bouslog worked the ball in. Jack Duncan, playing at left forward, made many tricky left hand shots all season. Carl Boyd played at center until he graduated in January .ind a newcomer, Ben Smythe, ttxtk over. Milt Ghekas, Jack McKay, L)on McPhail, Ken Rands, Jim Watson and Jerry White became very familiar because they helped a great de.al in winning the championship. To top off the season, the team played its way through to the state finals during the tournament. Tournament play started for Port Huron in the High- land Park regional game, in which Highland Park lost to Port Huron by a 42 to .3. score. In the semi-finals in Lansing, Port Huron downed a favored Benton Harbor team 4.3-.34. The ItKal team, however, met its match in the finals, when Jackson walked off with top honors. Port Huron, which entered the state finals for the first time in history, added to its trophies this year the Eastern Michigan League Championship trophy, the State Regional Tournament Championship trophy and the State Finals Tournament Runners-up trophy.

Jack McKay was an outstanding hurdler and one of the best in the League. Jack ' s speedy running and jumping won P. R H. S. the fourth place in the state track meet at Lansing — the first time Port Huron has ever placed in a state contest. Although the yearbook went to press before the opening of the 1948 track seastin. Coach Anderle said it was expected the ' 48 team would be able to use the Stadium crack and that with the new practice equipment, the track team should be much improved. 38 1.

GOLF We teed off to a 10 to 2 victory over the Hazel Park team last spring, using the course of the Black River Country Club. The season topped the previous one by chalking up two victories over Hazel Park and two over Mt. Clemens. Port Huron won one match with Birmingham and lost another to that city. Jerry Niel, Cliff Friedland, Jack McCraney, Phil Amadon and Ben Gorte earned letters with their long drives and accurate putts. BASEBALL Bad weather slowed up the baseball team considerably, but despite the loss of almost all the veterans from the previ- ous team, the players stacked up a record of six wins and six losses. Marysville was defeated by one point in the first game but avenged the loss in a return game by defeating Port Huron by the same margin. Port Huron ' s wins included games with East Detroit, Eerndale and Mt. Clemens, although Ferndale and East Detroit handed defeats to Port Huron in return games. The local team lost to Hazel Park twice and was also defeated by Birmingham.

Another reason why speedy com- pletion of Memorial Park Stadium is eagerly antici- pated. When future tennis teams swing” into action on the eight courts which will be a part of the Stadi- um, the record is expected to change. Matches were played during the 1948 season with Ferndale, Birmingham and Mt. Clemens. CROSS COUNTRY ’47 Ciross Country is still one of the newer sports in P. H. H. S. but tends to become more important as the years pass. Port Huron had two meets during the 47 season, both with Hazel Park. Chuck McKay was high point man in both meets and really kept up the family sports record. Port Huron was defeated in the first meet but tipped the opponents in the second. In future years the team will probably have more meets in its sche- dule.

Though the team cannot yet bask in the glory of championship. Coach Hayes said spirit ran high and that team members did a gtxjd job despite poor facili- ties. Fred Thomas, Ken Rands, Don Wales and Chuck Willis won letters.

The schedule results are not good except when compared with the experience of the teams against which they played, and the facilities available to boys of opposing squads.

During the school year the choir took part in many different types of activities. In the fall there was the Christmas Concert at the Desmond Theatre and the High Schtrol Gym. During the Easter season there was a Holy Week assembly and the Good Friday Pro- gram at the Desmond Theatre. The Port Huron Choir, along with St. Stephen, Algonac, Marine City, St. Clair, Yale, Marysville, and Sarnia, held a County Festival in the early spring. Also in the spring the Choir made a trip to Ann Arbor to attend the State Festival, and to Detroit to take part in Michigan Night Concert. To end the )ears activities a banquet is held in June for the seniors. At this time choir pins are pre- sented to seniors who have been in choir three or four semesters. Miss Bess Hyde is the director. SOLO TRAINING Solo training class is composed of a group of girls and boys who are interested in doing solo voice work. There are 29 members in the club, which is spon- sored by Miss Bess Hyde. Carrol White is president, and Melva Philipp is the secretary. The club ' s major activity is a recital in May. Shirley Springborn plays accompaniments. In the top two pictures, members of the Choir give out with their version of the Lord ' s Prayer, under leadership of Miss Bess Hyde. Matthew Cawthorne and Melva Philipp, in the bottom picture, show us how it’s done in Solo Training. 51 FALL PLAY •OUR HEARTS WERE YOUNG AND GAY ” A three act comedy about two delightful girls, Cornelia Otis Skinner and Emily Kimbrough, who are determined to prove mature and cos- mopolitan on a trip m Europe ( 1923) war presented by the January class. Based on their own experiences, the story Our Hearts Were Young and Gay was writ- ten by Miss Skinner and Miss Kimbrough. It was dramatized by Jean Kerr. Although the girls have decided to be com- pletely independent, they have many exciting adventures and are several times forced to seek help to get them out of their difficulties — a gas meter expltxling, Cornelia getting measles, etc. The cast was comprised of; Steward J®ck Harland Mrs. Skinner Genevieve Baker Cornelia Nancy Strauss Otis Skinner_- Frank Staiger Mary Laber .... David Tobias Dorothy Hobday Frank Stubbs Wayne Jowett Barbara Thomas Emily Purser Stewardes s Dick Winters Admiral Harriet St. John Winifred Blaugh Delores Caulkett Leo McEvoy Piazza Inspector Dorothea London Therese -■ Charlotte McCormick Madame Elise Betty Tyson Monsieur de la Croix James Mugan Window Cleaner - Dave Tobias The student director was John Piazza; busi- ness manager, Phyllis Harris; prompter, Joyce Sargent; and stage manager, William Lewis.

WITH JUDY” A Dare With Judy,’ familiar to everyone as a radio serial story, was presented by the June class as its play. Directed by Mrs. Jacobus, the cast included: (udy Foster Melvin Foster Mrs. Foster Jeannine Pickeral Joe Wizauer Eleanor McCoy Randolph Foster Duane Wakeham Hannah Shirley Guske Barbara Jackie St. Pierre Rex Ken Rands Oo ie Prin; le Jim Abernethy Mitzie Koffman Jo Ann Nelson Mrs. Hotchkiss .. Emma Jean Oslin Mr. Martindale Art Lane Eloise . Joyce Scott Mrs. Shultzhammer Elaine Krupzak Susie Alice Fowler The sttrry is of Judy Foster, typical teen-ager and her teen-age friends. Their talent for get- ting into difficulties, which somehow or other always manage to involve most or all of the Foster family, is amazing. Sam Matar served as student director. Others who assisted with the play were Judy Kilpatrick and Shirley Redmond, prompters; Herbert Hart, stage manager; Jack Purkiss, Don Hicks, Bern- ard HilltK ' k and Bob Whitman, stage screw; Maynard Fenner, electrician; Pat Vogel, Tom Williamson, Rose Zauner, Joyce Jowett and Bill Webster, properties; Charles Luce, business manager; Charlotte Nelson, Pat Fiedler, Ron Mires, Beverly Spencer, Bill Powell, Eunice Green, Eugene Bishop, Jane Lyons and Jean Sheldon, publicity; Norman McCue and Louise Alexander, tickets; and Donna Robbins, Donna Uplcger, Carol White and Jean LaFrance, make- up. mmrnm a Top to bottom: Mitzi, teen-a e friend of Judy’s, attempts a sophisticated pose to im- press Oosie and the threatrical director, Mr. Martindale.

Paper covers went out. New glossy paper came in. Special emphasis was placed on photo- graphy. Black spots swam around the page into the opening paragraphs of stories. The flash of lightning streaking toward the Post Office, either on foot or in Miss MacDonald ' s car, which received quite a workout, was our business manager, Flash Mires, carrying out the business affairs efficiently. One of the most difficult jobs on the Student, the mounting, was headed by Emma Jean Oslin, who also did a wonderful job on the Seniors’ June writeups. Eugene Dimick covered the sports, all except G. A. A., of course. Eugene is responsible for most of the laughter that floated out from the staff room. Any member of the staff will tell you that there is nothing like the Dimick wit; in fact, there ' s noth- ing like Dimick, especially when it comes to sour puns. He and Mires, when sent out to purchase a small piece of paneling to crate a package, emerged with a ceiling high piece, large enough to build a new high school and sticking out of Barbara J. Thomas ' s con- vertible on a cold wintry day. To start off the year, Charlotte, Emma Jean, Ron, Eunice Green, Eugene and Miss MacDonald went to Grand Rapids to see the publishers. Not tlie least of the day ' s many hilarities was the songfest by the quintet to keep Miss MacDonald from falling asleep over the wheel on the way home. All the art work can be credited to Eunice Green and to photographer Bud Blackney. They did a grand job. If Bud was seen speeding down the hallways, it was probably about 20 steps in advance of some un- willing subject whose picture he had just snapped. Or if Joan Runke was seen chasing down the hall after any number of people, it was strictly business — the business of trying to collect material for a feature. Genevieve Baker, Helen Garrett and Jim Mugan did the January class wiiteups. Members of the staff graduating in January with them were Joyce Sargeanr, Nancy Strauss, Dave Lefty Tobias, and Barbara Thomas, all of whom contributed much to the year- book. Marilyn Treat, Hazel Keeler and Arthur Ruble joined the staff at midyear. Two members of the staff who untiringly identified all the smiling faces in the group photographs were Mary Lou Bonadio and Jessie Lee Kelly. Other mem- Pat Abernethy, Joan Runke, Sandra Kinnear and Barb ara J. Thomas study picture mounting in a sample yearbook. Business Mar. Ron Mires, Lois Wilton. Sports Editor Dimick and Joyce Braidwood help Dimick identify members of the football team. 56 bers of the staff who worked hard and supported everything the Student did were Pat Abernethy, Louise Alexander, Joyce Braidwood, Judy Kilpatrick, Sandra Kinnear, Joan Slosser, Barbara J. Thomas. Pat Vogel, Joyce Walli and Lois Wilton. Special thanks of the staff go to Jim Watson, who contributed several photographs for use in the year- book; to Askar Shain studios, who supplied senior pic- tures and club photographs; and to Mr. Russell Saw- yer, who supplied the staff with several excellent sports pictures. All members of the staff participated in the adver- tising campaign, which made it possible for the staff to contribute three dollars for each senior book and two dollars on each underclassman ' s b(X)k. Total cost of the 1948 annual is four dollars each. Other money raising projects sponsored by the Student” were a dance entitled the Student Sleigh- ride, and operating of concessions at a basketball gams and a postgame dance.

Miss Etta Reid is the club adviser. CAMERA CLUB Although several camera clubs were organized last fall, only one continued to function during the year. It was composed of only a few members, who devoted their time to learning photography techniques from Mr. Ronan, adviser, and to taking pictures, both out- doors and indexers. New equipment was purchased for the darkroom through special projects, such as game concessions.

J. Broadbent A NEW HIGH SCHOOL Since the Port Huron School District has already reserved land near the Memorial Park site for a new high school, a representative group of P. H. H. S. students were asked this ques- tion: From a structural standpoint, what features do you consider most necessary to a new high school for Port Huron? Replies received from twelve of the group questioned are printed below: Alex Goetz: 1 would suggest especially a swimming pool, gymnasium, dance floor, loud speaker system through the school, an oil heating system, large and well-lighted classrooms, a special meeting place for clubs, an adequately sized cafeteria, and a well planned library. Dave Leonard: Two features I would like to se in a new high school are a good auditorium for school assem- blies and other activities, and a swimming pool. Eugene Dimick: I think the new high school should have well planned lighting and heating systems. It should also have rooms large enough to hold the class- es assigned to them. June Wnrzel: % Most important, of course, is let’s at least have a new .school! Welcome features would be large, light and pleasant study rooms, a gym- nasium, and a swimming pool. Stuart Winkelman: I believe the new high school should have an auditorium large enough to comfortably seat the entire enrollment of the school and allow- ing for an increased enrollment, gymnasiums for both boys and girls, good lighting and venti- lation, special rooms for special groups such as the Student Council and school publications and a swimming pool. 66 Don Hicks: First, have the entire high school in one building. We need an auditorium, a first aid center, an indoor track, a swimming pool, class- rooms constructed like Room 101 of P. H. H. S., more becoming offices, and better heating. Layle Cunningham: Besides the new high school itself, I think an athletic building is most necessary. The build- ing should house a swimming p(jol, two gyms that could also be used at noon hours and after school, athletic facilities for girls, and an indoor track, such as our competitors all have. Leon Washington: It should be large enough to have a separate locker for everyone. It should have a good heat- ing plant and large, uncrowded classrooms. Charlotte Lanfear: 1 would like something to take the place of the well” so students would have a meeting place. Perhaps an elevator wouldn’t be a bad idea either for the new school. Art Lane: I believe that the thing we need most is an auditorium. Other important features are a gym and swimming pool, possibly the pool under the gym floor. James Abernethy: A swimming pool, an auditorium for school and civic use, good lighting, especially designed classrooms, more adequate music facilities and provision for increased enrollment — these, I think, are most necessary to a new school. Kon Mires: I would like to set a good air-conditioning system, classrooms equipped for showing of movies, exits to provide speedy emptying of the school in case of fire, and a fully equipped gym- nasium. 67 SEARS SALES UNIT P. H. H. S. pupils get practical training in retailing with the complete selling unit — the only one of its type in a Michigan school. The unit was given to the school by Sears Roebuck Company, because of the outstanding work done by the retail- ing department. Retailing students have a definite advan- tage because they now have a chance in their related work to get practice in school. Sears Roebuck Company placed one of these units in each of the 4 S states, in the city recommentled by the state Depart- ment of Public Instruction. Advantages of the training given by the unit are unlimited,” said Mr. Don Wis- mer, head of the retailing department. The students get training for their life’s work. Local stores supply stock to be prac- tice-sold, and students get complete train- ing, from pricing to the final inventory.” Retailing members are also working outside of school, in all types of business — gas stations, auto repair shops, depart- ment stores, etc. Seventy-three persons are enrolled in the program. l-rom top to bottom; Donna Davis, member of retailing classes, demonstrates proper selling methods to customers Clara Wright and Duane Gragowski. Betty Tyson examines books she is about to add to the showcase display. Lois Arnott rings up the sale, while Don Sopha wraps David Mitchell’s purchase. Mr. Russell M. Norris, member of the Board of Edu- cation, accepts the sales unit officially from Mr. Ed- ward Condon, Chicago, assistant to the president of Seas Roebuck Company, which gave the complete selling unit to Port Huron High School. 68 BOOK SALES The Book Store, situated on the second floor, in the bookkeeping room, is one of this year’s successful innovations in Port Huron High School. Through the combined efforts of Mrs. Posey, Mr. Tomlinson, the Board of Edu- cation, and the students of Bookkeeping 4, new books are sold to students at a price only slightly above the cost. Mr. Tomlin- son and the Board of Education order the lx)oks. Mrs. Posey and her bookkeeping students do the actual selling. Everyone who purchases a new book is given a number, which is w ' ritten on page 17 of the book. This number has proved to be very useful in identifying lost or mislaid volumes. Upwards of 2,000 books were sold by the book store this year. Top: Textbook saleswomen Shirley Sprinsborn, Shirley Johnsitk and Lorraine Glyshaw wait on cus- tomers Norma Winter and Mary Uple er. Center: The sales force ( includinfi Dorothy Geick, extreme right) wait patiently while the customers check their book lists.

DRIVER EDUCATION TRAINING This is a six weeks course offered to high scht)ol students for the purpose of giving them an oppor- tunity to learn how to drive safely and correctly. It is the first time it has been introduced into our school system. Driver training is offered to sophomores as part of a health program. There are both class room and behind rhe wheel instructions. To take actual driving lessons, the student must be sixteen and must have written permission from hi.s parents. The course is also open to seniors, who are taken from the ir study halls. Instructor for the course is Mr. Francis Ronan, well known to our students .and especially trained for teaching this course. Many of our students have seen the car, loaned to us through the American Automobile AssiKiation and through the courtesy of the Pontiac Motor Division, Pontiac, Michigan. The car has a special dual-control to make it safer for both the student driver and other drivers because the car is under control at all times. Classroom instruction includes a study of the driver, pedestrians and how to drive. These are grouped under the heading of Sportsmanship Driv- ing. Behind the wheel instruction includes a series of driving skill exercises by means of the standardized mechanical tests. This shows each pupil his own phy- sical and mental reactions and his emotional char- acteristics, and also where he makes his mistakes and how to correct them. After the six week ' s course has been completed, the student is qualified to take a state drivers test for his driver ' s license. Let s hope that by the end of three years, everyone in high sch x)l will have benefited from this course. Pictured above is the dual control driver training car loaned to Port Huron High School this year through the court- esy of the Pontiac Motor Division and the American Automobile Association. In the photograph at the right, Mr. Ronan demonstrates to student driver Santford Boley use of a mechanical de- vice which measures the distance trav- eled from the time brakes are applied to the time the vehicle is brought to a full stop. 74 Pictured here are three acts rehearsinf; for the annual Spotlight, given March 19 in the gymnasium.

Age shall not weary theni, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning We will remember them.’’ For The Fallen Laurence Binyon The Blue Water District, in 1949, will have one of the most complete community athletic and recreation plants in Michigan as the result of con- sistent efforts of its citizens — young and old. The facility, to be known as the Memorial Recreation Park, will be a living memorial to the veterans of World War II. The work on this program was started with the purchase of a tract of land by the School District of the City of Port Huron. The area of 43 acres is located in the western part of the city bounded by Twenty-fourth, Twentieth, Court and Farley streets. The north 30 acres is reserved for the Recreation Park and the rest for a new high school. Included in the project are a football stadium, two softball diamonds, a baseball diamond, a combination softball and baseball diamond, three practice football fields, eight tennis courts, quarter-mile cinder running track, a wading pool, children’s play area, horse-shoe courts and other outdoor athletic facilities. The names of the Port Huron district’s war dead, including 83 former members of Port Huron High School who lost their lives in World War II, will be inscribed on a wall in front of the club house. Officers of the Port Huron District Foundation, which is sponsoring the Memorial Park, are Fred L. Riggin, Sr., president; Edward R. Moore, secretary; Mrs. Walter M. Lambert, assistant secretary; Francis Kiefer, vice-president; Eugene H. Moak, vice-president; and Gerald F. Collins, treasurer. ME.MQRIAL RE.CRt.ATION P-A R K ■■rP QOi.
