Because the Student is the official yearbook of both the January and June classes, the majority of pictures within these covers were taken before January graduation. The Student has expanded twofold this year. Padded covers have been used for perhaps the first time in the Student’s history. Secondly, the book is by far the largest ever printed for Port Huron High School, exceeding the 1948 yearbook by 38 pages and the 1947 yearbook by 62 pages. The staff encountered many obstacles and spent long hours in making this annual a reality. If in the future, the 1949 Student serves to recall to you the true value of your days at Port Huron High School, we, the staff, will feel richly rewarded.

Basketball Coached by Reed Laughlin, the Big Reds had a share in the league championship for the second straight year. Port Huron started the season with a win over VanDvke. Lysle Smith paced the Reds’’ with 12 points. Port Huron then whipped Flint Northern, with Ben Smyth and Alex Goetze play- ing standout ball. Ben Smyth stole the honors as Port Huron downed Ferndale in the first game of the tournaments at Mt. Clemens. The follow- ing night the Reds tripped Birmingham with Alex Goetze and Capt. Lysle Smith pacing the attack. VanDyke upset the Reds in the final game. Lysle Smith again was high with 12 points. Port Huron added Toledo Waite and Toledo Lib- bey to their list of victories. Lysle Smith, Alex Goetze, and Don McPhail played stellar ball in these games. League play got under way with Port Huron downing East Detroit twice, with Lysle Smith, Buck Fox and Ben Smyth paving the way. Port Huron split in two games with Hazel Park. The high point men of these games were A1 Goetze, Lysle Smith, Ben Smyth, and Lome Walker. The Big Reds” whipped Ferndale twice more and set a new school scoring mark with 70 points. Dave Schaefer, Lysle Smith, Buck Fox, and A1 Goetze lead the parade. Port Huron split with Birmingham in league play to give P. H. H. S. a 2 to 1 margin over Birmingham for the year, Buck” Fox, Lome Walker, Ben Smyth and Lysle Smith being high point men. Port Huron split with the cellar dwelling Mt. Clemens team, with Lysle Smith, Ben Smyth and Lome Walker leading the attack. The Detroit Free Press selected Captain Lysle Smith on the first string of its all-state team. REGIONALS AT FLINT Port Huron High’s Big Reds came up from behind to win a sensational and much deserved victory over a strong Hamtramck team at the Regionals in Flint. Facing defeat, the Reds, spur- red on by Leon Washington, came up from be- hind and in the closing minutes snatched the game from their opponents. In a heartbreaker with Saginaw Arthur Hill the following night, the boys paced opponents nearly all the way, only to be defeated in the closing minutes. This game was the best played by the team this season. Captain Lysle Smith paced both teams, with 21 points. 46 SCORES Port Huron 31 . . . . Van Dyke 23 Port Huron 37 . .

Members participate in group sports and also in such individual sports as archery, tennis, golf and ring tennis. This year, in addition to taking part in an Eastern Michigan Playday, the club held two basketball playdays with East Detroit, playing host at one of the meets. Climaxing the G. A. A., year is the spring awards banquet. Letters are awarded, and every girl who has served six semesters in G. A. A. ( three in the gymnasium and three in city recreation) receives a G. A. A. pin. Membership in G. A. A. is voluntary. Some 40 members of tenth grade G. A. A. meet twice weekly in the gymnasium to par- ticipate in group sports. The girls divide into teams and play such games as volleyball, basketball, soccer, hockey and softball. Members of the G. A. A. Leaders Club, which is composed of eleventh and twelfth grade G. A. A.’ers and which meets once a week, act as referees and umpires for the tenth graders. Miss Doris Teachout supervises all G. A. A. activities.

Track Coach Harry Anderle and his track team met last year with Marine City, Algonac, Ferndale, Birmingham, East Detroit and Hazel Park, and attended the River Rouge Relays at Ann Arbor, and the Regionals at Saginaw. Captain last season was Layle Cunningham, who was named in the Sport Shop awards for High Point Man honors. Along with Cunningham, McKay was named for the Most Surprising Performance turned in, Way for the Mast Outstanding Junior and Sass for the Outstanding First Year Man. There were forty-three boys on the squad, and most of them received letters. Bud Way is captain for the year 1949. 52 Row 2: Mr. Fowler, Frank Patzke, Terry Elsworth, Russ Norris, Les Selby. Row 1: Jerry Sterling, Ben Gorte, John Telfer, Bill Moore. Golf Led by their able captain, Ben Gorte, the golf team eased through a tough schedule. Mt. Clemens and Birmingham were struck down twice by the Big Reds club and Pontiac once, after defeating the local team at their first meeting. The Eastern Michigan League title was captured as well as the Regional honors. Port Huron won six matches and lost one to close out an almost per- fect season. The boys were coached by that able standby, Brick” Fowler. Tennis The Port Huron High School Tennis Team met opponents from Birmingham, Ferndale and Mt. Clemens last season, playing each school twice. The boys were able opponents, but were beaten in every match. They were coached last season by Reed Laughlin. Back this year to try again are Glenn Sutton, John Fountain, Paul Rands, Richard Currie, Dalton Love, Robert Fahselt, John Porter and William Branch. Two more schools have been added to the 1949 schedule. East Detroit and Hazel Park have or- ganized tennis teams for the first time. There are thirteen games on the schedule for this year, against nine played last season. Row 3: John Foun- tain, Mr. Laughlin, Bob Fahselt.

S.s’ former distance stars, met opponents from Croswell, Hazel Park and Birmingham, and attended the League Meet at Hazel Park. They played Hazel Park three times, Croswell twice and Birmingham once. The boys tried their best but could not get the upper hand on any of the teams. Letter winners were Dean Palmateer, Jerry An- drews, Jack McCreight, Charles Marshall, Dave Schaefer, Alvin McLean and Manager Fred Haynes. Back next year are Trese, Andrews, McLean, Mar- shall, Schaefer and Palmateer. Athletic director for cross-country is Mr. Cecil Brick Fowler. Baseball Port Huron started its winning streak a little too late in the season to swallow league honors. The local team defeated Marysville, Mt. Clemens and Birmingham twice each and Hazel Park and Algonac once each. Two setbacks each were given out by Ferndale and East Detroit. Hazel Park defeated P. H. H. S. once.

Notice the familiar background. Swimming The Port Huron High School swimming team, under the direction of Coach John Heering, traveled to meets at Mt. Clemens, Hazel Park, Birmingham and Sarnia. The team was improved over the previous season, when the swimming team was first organized. Among the letter winners were two seniors: Walter Switzer and Glen Sutton. Port Huron placed fifth in the league meet at Mt. Clemens, and was beaten for fourth place by 3 points for E. M. L. Standings. Scores were: Mt.

The boys won one game out of those which were scheduled and lost three of them by a single point. A good display of talent was present on the team and all of the boys will be back to try out for varsity ball next season. The captain for most of the games was Ivory Wood. 56 The tenth grade squad, under Coach John Heer- ing, carried out a seven game schedule last season. The reason for carrying on a tenth grade program is to provide game experience for boys who are not able to take part in varsity competition. Some of the games played included those with Almont, Hazel Park, St. Augustine of Richmond, Ferndale.

Student Staff With true modesty, we of the editorial staff of the Student find it proper to proclaim the season 1948-1949 a success. This is partly because of the leadership and guidance given by Charlotte Lanfear who was editor for the last two years, and her assistant, Joan Runke. Within the staff reigned perfect harmony and beautiful singleness of purpose, due mainly to the fact that most staff members were unwilling to work. The one exception was Paul Rands, our knight with the golden locks. Joanne Howse and Helen Kertes, club reporters, had intermitted periods of activity. George Bonner remained quietly efficient with electrified wires in hand for unsuspecting persons. Nancy Crull and Joyce Walli fulfilled a purpose more ornamental than practical. Nancy Hall and Donna Keaner accomplished a lot even if it was only their shorthand. CRUNCH! CRUNCH! Don ' t be alarmed, it isn’t the termites; it’s just Delores Schultz gnawing away on her apple again. Ron Taylor had a difficult time juggling the figures (mathematical, that is). Bud Blackney, our photographer, seemed to prefer those Southerners, especially after the trip to French Lick. Betty Lou Fitzner found that when she finished mounting the pictures, she had more glue on her hands than she did on the pictures. Most of the kids in high school have one lunch hour, but we know a girl who has two! Yes, it’s Sandy Kinnear, who makes her daily trips to the cafeteria. Lois Wilton and Mary Ellen Mockles with their incessant chatter kept everyone well informed on the news of the day. Pat Rademacher and Ruth Langolf, our typists, did not always hit the right key but still they kept the keys aflyin’. Marilyn Treat spent so much time helping other people that she hardly had time for her work on features. Our artist, Margaret Hyde, and her elucidations (whether concerning the Student or not ) made quite a hit. Zoom!! It’s Rebekah Smith and Joanne Wheelihan. They had an exhausting time dodging between senior class activities and Student Writeups. Hazel Keeler and Jessie Lee Kelly were two of the more tranquil members of the staff, but they had their share of mischief, too. Oh, yes! We musn’t forget our sports editor, Leon Washington, who had a gay time romping around the halls. Seriously though, we wish to extend our appreciation to Askar-Shain photographic studio, which supplied senior pictures and club photographs, and also to Jim Watson, who supplied us with many good shots. Ron Taylor was the man in charge of the advertising campaign in October. At the Toledo game Ron and Paul Rands had charge of the concessions and were assisted by Donna Keaner, Nancy Hall, Nancy Crull, Delores Schultz, Marilyn Treat, Pat Abernathy, Mary Lou Bonadio, Sandy Kinnear, Barbara Thomas, Elliott Norgren, and Helen Kertes. In true high school fashion, members of the Student Staff huddled at the back of the room when the first staff meeting was called in the fall. They were put to work so fast that they soon lost their timidity, however, and learned to do every thing from selling advertising to past- ing pictures. 59 Row 4: James Becker, David Schafer, Wayne Boucher, Terry Ellsworth, Thomas Nelson, Richard Madsen, James Durand, Robert Henderson, William McColl, Richard Johnson, Dalton Love.

Student Council Last semester’s Student Council consisted of 40 students who were elected by the home room system and who represented the entire student body. Following are some of the council’s major accomplishments: 1. The sal e of season football tickets, proceeds $1,460.00. 2. Sale of $500.00 worth of season basketball tickets (report incomplete). 3. 12 As excuse from final exams (C average). 4. Eastern Michigan Congress meeting at Hazel Park, 20 delegates from P. H. H. S. council. 5. State wide Student Council meeting in Ann Arbor, 3 delegates from Port Huron. 6. Trophy cases completed. 7. Conducting of elections. 8. Student Council Constitution rewritten. 9.

Miss Marjorie Muhlitner was faculty adviser. 60 Lighthouse This year the Lighthouse had one of its most successful years, the main attraction being a change from mimeographed pages to a printed paper. Since the beginning of the printed paper, the business department has greatly increased. This paper is published semi-monthly and is sold for a dime. The Lighthouse members are very active in school activities. They sponsored a dance after one of the football games, and assisted at the March of Dimes Dance. They also presented a radio broadcast concerning newspaper work. This year the staff joined the Eastern Michigan League Press Club. Marcia Rouse was elected president and John Fountain was elected head of the sports department. The club members had a senior dinner in May, at which the seniors were honored and pins were awarded. Members receiving pins were those who had been typists for one year, and those who had been members for three years. Officers are: Marcia Rouse, editor; Mary Ann Alexander and Tom Tobias, assistant editors; and Pat Bourke, business manager. Mr. C. Bower is adviser.

The members of the Camera Club greatly in- creased their knowledge of photography during the past semester, under the direction of Miss Neville. They received instructions and practiced develop- ing, printing, tinting and enlarging of pictures. At Christmas time members specialized in the making of Christmas cards. They have also experimented in portrait taking and table top scenes. A Stroke of the Brush The Cartooning Club, under the sponsorship of Miss Winifred Powell, have been learning about the different phases of art. Members had no set course of study but worked on drawings that they were individually interested in. Officers are: Thomas Carter, president; Evelyn Hartwig, vice president, and Denise Heeke, secretary- treasurer. Row 2: George Marigold, Ed- ward Lorts, Alan Seibert, Lin- coln Cline.

Lick It, Stick It The Stamp Club may be small, but still they have accomplished a lot. Members have sent stamps to the Dearborn Hospital and have also attended meet- ings of the adult stamp club. During the meetings, they had outside speakers and reports from members. They’re Off Again The Travel Clubs meetings consisted mainly of discussions and of outside speakers. Some of the speakers were Zan Jones, Jim Watson and Maurice Heald. Club members had their big event of the year when they went to Detroit to see a hockey game. Before attending the game, they ate at Greenfield’s Restaurant. For money raising projects, the club sold con- cessions at one of the games, and sold candy bars during final exams. Officers were: President, Pat Kerr; vice presi- dent, Alex Goetz; secretary, Margaret Schieman, and treasurer, Catherine Lasher.

Junior Red Cross Home Nursing Along with their scholastic education. Port Huron High School girls receive practical training that will make them better home-makers. Through the co-operation of the St. Clair County chapter, American Red Cross, tenth grade girls take a six-weeks course in home nursing. They learn how to bathe and care for babies and how to make beds properly, along with gaining general knowledge on understanding child growth and development, caring for sick persons, protecting the health of the home and community and achieving personal readiness to meet everyday problems. Miss Doris Teachout is instructor of the course, which is offered as part of the high school health classes in which all tenth grade girls are enrolled. The school edition of the Red Cross Home Nursing textbook is used, and, through arrangements made by the local Red Cross office, Mrs. Marie Carey, reg- istered nurse, assists in instructing during certain phases of the work. Each girl enrolled receives a Junior Red Cross Home Nursing Certificate. 64 Donald Chatterson, Jack Beale, George Bonner, James Stinson, John Cheney. Tri-Hi-Y One of the most active clubs in Port Huron High School is the Tri-Hi-Y. This year the Girls’ Hi-Y became affiliated with the national Tri-Hi-Y. From the nucleus of only a few members, it has developed into a growing organization. Some of the outstanding projects of the year included the sending of Christmas packages to a school in Tennessee, sponsorship of a dance and dis- cussion of vital problems of the day. The club also sent three delegates to the Seventy- Sixth Annual State Convention of the Y. M. C. A. in Ann Arbor. Under the guidance of Mrs. Donald Clark, spon- sor, and Miss Etta Reid, faculty adviser, the club is steadily progressing. The officers are: President, Joan Runke; vice president, Lillian Burrell; secretary, Patricia Rade- macher, and treasurer, Betty Talbot. Boys’ Hi-Y The boys conducted a toy campaign at Christmas time for children in Tennessee. The club’s main objective is to be of service to its community and country. Members attended the Older Boys’ Conference in Flint. Officers are: President, Jim Stinson; vice presi- dent, Jack Beale; secretary, John Chaney, and treasurer, George Bonner.

The Library Club Student librarians work in the library during the school day and after school. The club meets on Wednesdays at 3:40 P. M.

Port Huron High’s Radio Club is doing its part to make sure that radio, one of the most important means of communication, will continue to advance rapidly. Under the leadership of Mr. Burnell, members of the radio club are receiving instruction in building radio sets and receivers, and are also learning to manipulate projectors, which they may use as a beginning for future work or as a hobby. One of the club’s main projects was a display representing its work. Elected officers were: President, John Cheney; vice president, Richard Hoffman, treasurer, David Radtke, and secretary, Arnold Robinson. The Press Rolls On The Print Club is becoming more and more popular among high school students. Members were forced to divide into three groups because of lack of room.

Crafts Club Majorettes Of all the girls who went out for majorettes this year, four girls were chosen as regular majorettes. These four majorettes marched with the band at the basketball and football games and also in parades. They also marched in the May festival and at the band assembly at Garfield School. All the girls practice an hour every Monday night after school. A few of the girls practice every day with the band. The uniforms of the majorettes are furnished by the school. The Crafts Club, under the direction of Miss Kuhlenkamp, meets twice a week in the Tech Build- ing. The members work on leather and plastic projects. Among the articles that they have made are billfolds, belts, purses, rings, pins, earrings and airplanes.

Choir The Choir, directed by Miss Bess Hyde, has had a very successful year. One of the main events of every year is the Christmas program at the Desmond Theater. Also at this time of year, the choir presents the Christmas program to the whole High School in the gym. The day before Christmas vacation, the choir caroled through the hall of the school and also in the downtown area. On Good Friday the choir sang at the Desmond Theater. Also they repeated their Good Friday services in the gym for the high school. 72 In the spring the choir took its annual trip to East Lansing to attend the State Festival. The choir sponsored in May the appearance here of the University of Michigan Womens’ Glee Club. Along with the schools from down the river, the Port Huron choir goes to Marine City for the County Festival. This is the time for all the choi rs to have a great deal of fun. Again this year the choir gave their Spring Concert, which every person enjoyed hearing. As usual, the seniors received their choir pins at the banquet which is held in June, to end the year’s activities.

The group led by the majorettes, makes formations during half time at the football games. Each spring the group also presents a concert and takes part in the Band Festival, in which bands from all around this district gather to give a concert. A concert is also given at the Garfield School each year. The Band meets every day, second hour, under the direction of E. E. Straff on, to practice for their various activities. There is a Cadet Band and a Beginners Band so anyone who is interested can learn to play an instrument before entering the Varsity Band. Pins and letters are given to those who have been in the Band two or more semesters. Top Picture: The brass section of the band tunes up before playing the next piece.

H S. hasn’t been too dull the last year, thanks be to students, who liven up the old building. YEA, TEAM Although the football field was finished in 1946, it was in 1948 that the permanent cement bleachers were erected. On September 17, 1948, P. H. H. S. played its first game in the completed stadium. The east side, where all the loyal ' Big Reds” fans sat, was not quite finished; nevertheless, this did not dampen their spirits. NEW BAND UNIFORMS The magazine sale went over the top. With the goal set at $3,500.00, the final total was $3,881.45, $200.00 more than sales for any other year. The profit from this sale, which will be about $1,100.00, will be put into a fund for new band uniforms. (Ah, at last, new, snappy uniforms.) This is the fourth magazine sale in which Port Huron High School has par- ticipated. The motion picture projector and the new trophy cases were bought with the money made from magazine sales of other years. The winning homeroom this year was Miss Laura Moore’s. Members went to a free dinner at the Chateau and afterwards to a free movie. Enjoying this privilege also were five boys who sold over $100.00 worth of magazines. These boys, in order of sales, were: Keith Berkley, Richard Johnson, Charles Kohnert, David Curtis and John Baranski. Mr. Anderle’s room was in second place. Mr. Anderle didn’t get the free steak that he had been dreaming of, but his homeroom did get the afternoon off, plus a free movie. Mr. Crawford’s room also got a free movie. His home- room was in third place, but since he had such a large enrollment, he received the same prize as the second highest room. Everyone who sold over $25.00 worth had the afternoon off but no free movie. RADIO SERIES Somethings new have been added to P. H. H. S. this year! Ever since November, weekly radio programs have been broadcast each Friday morning over WTTH. Many of the students have not heard them — unless they skipped or took radios to class — because they are presented from 10:00 to 10:15. The programs give parents and anyone else who may be interested an idea of what goes on at the P. H. H. S. Brain Factory. 86 of Old P.H.H.S. An interesting skit was put on during Brotherhood Week. The choir, on Good Friday, sang religious music. During the year other educational depart- ments presented enjoyable programs which were introduced by student announcers The faculty committee consists of Miss Hyde, Mrs. Oslin, Mr. Straffon and Mrs. Jacobus, who is also the director. TROPHY CASES The new trophy cases, which are located near the well, were purchased with the profits of the magazine sales of two years ago. Displays are changed weekly and represent all phases of school activity. TO BE OR NOT TO BE” On February 22, some lucky eleventh and twelfth grade students journeyed to Sarnia to see Laurence Olivier’s production of Shakespeare’s Hamlet”. These lucky pupils were dismissed at 1:50 while the rest of the students stayed in school (involuntarily). Four Blue Water buses picked up those students who were going, transported them across the border, and dropped them at the door of the theatre. After the production the buses were boarded, and everyone came back to Port Huron. NO BOYS ALLOWED! This is Eastern Michigan’s Girls’ Playday. The first playday was held in Mt. Clemens on February 26. Fifteen girls attended from Port Huron. The girls participated in competitive basketball, volleyball and swimming. ON TO DETROIT More of P. H.’s club members have been getting around this year. The Travel Club went to Detroit to see a hockey game. The Detroit Red Wings won 2 to 1 against the Chicago Black Hawks. The club earned the money by selling refreshments at games and selling candy bars during exams. The basketball team also saw a hockey game. It turned out to be a tie game between the Detroit Red Wings and the Boston Bruins. This must have been quite a game. 87 HAMLET Yearbook Staff Attends Convention Probably the largest delegation ever to represent Port Huron High School at a national convention was the group which represented the Student” at the National Scholastic Press Association conven- tion November 27-28 in French Lick Springs, Ind. Ten members of the yearbook staff, accompanied by Miss MacDonald, adviser, spent Thanksgiving Day traveling to French Lick to be on hand for the opening meeting the following morning. The two days of the convention, which was at- tended by 850 delegates, were filled with meetings on every phase of yearbook and newspaper pro- duction, luncheons, dinners and especially planned programs and dances. Highlights of the busy schedule were displays of the nations outstanding high school yearbooks and newspapers, a get-acquainted dance and talks by Nat S. Finney, famous newspaper correspondent, and J. Morris Jones, managing editor of World Book Encyclopedia. Delegates were free to choose from a total of 62 meetings, all an hour in length. Housed in dormi- tory fashion in the huge French Lick hotel, persons attending the convention also had opportunities to get acquainted. Ail meetings and activities were held in the hotel. A fish pond seems to be the center of attraction in the top left picture, taken by Photographer Blackney, one of the local delegation. At the top right, Editor Charlotte Lanfear tries to suppress a smile as her caricature is drawn by Len Redman, professional artist formerly with Disney studios. 3.

This is a popular means of earning money for the clubs and organizations. Here Joyce Teeple, Harold Burgett.
