Sixly- nine X -.. ,A ll m l BWAN A STAFF A lot of time, effort, and energy, but mainly a whole treasure chest of memories of fun and pleasant occasions-memories of a wonderful year of school-have combined to make your l949 edition of Bwana. If you say it wasn't fun, think again. You didn't hurt yourself doing a little homework now and then. Remember that lunch period on the lawn when the fellows climbed on top each other to form another so-called 'ileaning tower of Pisa , or that laboratory period when the hose came off the water spout and sprayed water on everyone in the class? There were always gym and those all-important five minutes between classes for the 'igang get-togethersu and the unusual race for classes. All these things we have wrapped up for you and kept tight for safe keeping between these green covers. We have gladly given our time for Bwana, but as everything else, this was not all play, not all work. We had the usual meetings every Monday morning at 8:15 in Room 328 and on nearly every other morning long before the advisory bell rang some of us were busy trimming and pasting senior pictures, typing the calendar and the essays, drawing tail-pieces and cartoons, and arranging and pasting panels for Side-Glances, and in general, having a lot of fun putting the book together. Miss I... A. Nerud, Miss M.. Burke, and Miss L. Solfronk are the teachers who willingly gave hours of their valuable spare time to help us and manage our work for Bwana. They have the thanks and appreciation of! the staff and all Roosevelt students. ' If you take care of this book and notice everything in it, you will derive as much joy and happiness from your Bwana as we had filling it to overflowing with innumerable memories.

Mr. Lorenzen is coach of our championship tennis team, as well as of apparatus, Roosevelt's newest sport. Football and basketball are coached by Mr. Houston, ably assisted by Mr. Lake. Mr. Van Reen continues as coach of track and B-team football. The swimming team is under the guidance of Mr. Neumann. Roosevelt is sorry to lose Mr. Carlson, who is retiring after having coached Rough Rider baseball teams for many years. His successor has not yet been named. It is a privilege for Roosevelt High School to have such a competent group of men directing her athletic fortunes. BILL RICHARDS MV One Hundred Four ,3,,,f,,34.ff-0 s Paar wh f2 I. l A, An All BASKETBALL Xi With the varsity team composed of Gene Kuechler, Gene Edwards, John Koffmann, Bob Lawrence, Frank Zielinski, Rudy Bukich, Bob Roehes, Don Nlunson, Herb Hacker, and Mel Loncaric, the Rough Riders embarked on the I947-48 basketball season. Because Kuechler, Bukich, and Zielinski graduated in mid-year, they were replaced by Hopkins, Alexander, and Heuerman in January. ln a pre-league game with St. Louis University High, Roosevelt was nosed out by the Junior Billikens 39-37. Both teams fought hard, and at the half. the score was tied. The Riders were ahead during most of the game, but in the last five minutes the Billikens came through to gain the victory. ln the first league contest a rough battle between the Longhorns of Southwest and the Rough Riders resulted in a 49-35 defeat for the Riders. Although discouraged by their last defeat, Roosevelt prepared to take on C. B. C., the game which resulted in a 38-37 Victory for the Rough Riders. Roosevelt? hopes remained high as they trampled Hadley, the new entry to the Public High League, by the score of 82-37. The Riders then suffered an overwhelming defeat at the hands of the Bluejackets, 67-32. ln the next encounter, a fast-moving game resulted in a 52-35 defeat for the Riders to their neighbors of Cleveland. But the Rough Riders' spirits rose when the team came back to crush Blewett 60-44. For their second consecutive victory and their third league victory, Roosevelt defeated Soldan. Although they were losing at the half, the Rough One Hundred Five Riders took advantage of Soldan's weakness in the second, and the final score was 46-32. For the last league game, Roosevelt was downed by the Cxoldbugs of McKinley, 46-43, in the last few minutes of the game. ln the Normandy Tournament, Country Day bowed before the Roosevelt Nine, 43-24. We were then ready for Maplewood, but to our disappointment, thc Riders were compelled to make way for the Maple Leaves, who beat us 53-44. Roosevelt's hopes in the regional tournament were cut short when they were downed by St. Peter's 40-35. Although the team came back in the second' half, the Riders were unable to ovecome the handicaps caused by a slow start. Roosevelt was thereby eliminated from competing in the state tournament. Letters were awarded to the following boys: Gene Edwards Bill Hopkins Captain Bob Lawrence John Koffman Mel Loncaric Managei' Don Peltz Herb Hacker Don Mumm Congratulations to the I947-48 basketball squad!

The coach, Mr. Lake, is well fitted to teach young players the fundamentals of the game-dribbling, passing, shooting-and advance them to the varsity, ready to learn the finer points. The 25 players are chosen by an intramural tournament which takes place in November. The B-team plays the same regular schedule as the varsity, meeting the B-team of the varsity's opponents. No winner is declared in the B-team league. Evidence that the B-team is doing its job is the fact that four of the varsity regulars have come up from its ranks. They are john Koffman, Don Spicer, Mel Loncaric, and Bill Hopkins. Om' Humfrvd Eight X BASEBALlbx'48 . ln the opening baseball game of the season, e Roosevelt Rough Riders nipped the lVlcKinley Goldbugs, 7-6, in a no eagu actice game. Encoun- tering Southwest on our campus, the Rid ost ard-fought decision, 9-6. The third practice game, the one with S oufiiigh, made the future look brighter, as Roosevelt blanked the opponents, , behind the able pitching of Wally Anders, who allowed only one fluke hit. ln a run-making rampage, the Riders smothered Hadley, l l-2, for their final practice game. At the opening league game on the Roosevelt campus, Cleveland defeated Roosevelt, IU-2, mainly because of ragged fielding. At Fairgrounds Park, the Beaumont team squeezed a 2-l victory over our fighting nine. Poor fielding on our part netted the Southwest Long-horns, last year's champions, a 6-I victory. Thanks largely to the masterful hurling of Ray Eckles, the Rough Riders whipped Soldan, 2-0. Ray, who had a no-hit game in his grasp until a double in the seventh inning spoiled it, was never in trouble in securing his first victory of the season. The Roosevelt Riders won their second league game when they defeated the Blewett nine, 2-0, on Blewett's campus. Wally Anders, who pitched our next game, gave up only six hits in winning his third game. The Roosevelt nine took time out of the league schedule to trounce St. lVlary's I0-4. At their next league game, the Riders won their fourth straight by defeating McKinley, 5-4, in extra innings. Ray Eckles pitched for the Rough Riders, giving up ten hits and walking only one. Roosevelt lost a close decision to Central, 6-5, in a game played at Fairgrounds Park. The game, which was protested by Coach Carlson because One Hundred Nine One Hundred Ten of a questionable fair ball, saw the Riders out-hit their rivals, I3-7, yet left nine men stranded on bases. ln a return non-league contest played at Roosevelt, St. Mary's edged out the Rough Riders, 4-3. Starting the second round of play, Cleveland whitewashed Roosevelt, 5-0. The only good thing about the game was that Ray Maurer showed signs of breaking out of his prolonged batting slump by slamming out two singles. ln a free hitting contest played on Roosevelt's field, the Beaumont Bluejackets defeated the Riders, I2-8. Going into the final inning, Roosevelt led 8-6, but Beaumont came up with six runs to win. Southwest beat Roose- velt's Rough Riders 8-5, although Jim Metcalf pitched fine ball. At Lemp Park McKinley downed Roosevelt 7-4. The Goldbugs won the game in the sixth when they scored four times. In an extra inning ball game at Sherman Park, Roosevelt was defeated by Soldan, 4-3. Wally Anders recovering from a poor start, pitched excellent ball the rest of the way, but lost in the ninth inning. This was the Riders' fifth straight defeat. Breaking out of a prolonged slump, the Rough Riders trounced Central, ll-3. Ray Eckles, the winning pitcher, was ably supported by Ray Maurer, who lead the onslaught with three hits, while Captain Don Mumm cracked out two. Dave l-leuerman played a fine game at short stop, handling all his chances cleanly. Pitching the final game of the season, Bill Kuhns shut out Blewett 3-0 at Roosevelt. Bill allowed only one hit, while walking three and striking out six, as he held Blewett in check all the way. Don Mumm paced the batting attack with two safeties. Thisigame gave Roosevelt a league record of five victories and nine losses, ranking them with Blewett for a tie for sixth place in the league. The Riders won nine games and lost eleven.

Omf llumlrea' 7.hlvfll'CY7 AN INTERVIEW WITH THE 1948 TRACK QUEEN An expectant, almost reverent, hush descended upon the usually noisy auditorium, as six buglers stepped smartly to the center of the stage and heralded the approach of the i948 Track Queen. Five smiling maids pre- ceded the lovely girl who had been chosen to reign over the annual Track and Field Meet, and finally, Rooseveltis top royalty, jean Zagel, started down the aisle, amid tumultuous applause. She ascended the steps to the regal throne on the arm of Mayor George Parker, and a sparkling red and white crown was placed upon her blond curls by Jean Fleming, who substituted for the retiring queen. As l left the auditorium a little later, still rather dazed by the beauty of the new Queen and her court, dozens of questions filled my brain. just how does it feel to be a real, honest-to-goodness queen? Surely, such a privileged person must be entirely different from ordinary mortals. Does she eat ambrosia and drink nectar? Has she led a quiet life, or has it been unusually thrilling? With these puzzling questions in mind, I sought out our school's first lady, Miss Jean Zagel, for an interview. My first question was left unasked, for after one look at jean's radiant face, l realized that being Roosevelt's Track Queen has been one of the great events of her life. As for the last question, jean's life here at Roosevelt has been far from quiet. The members of Mr. Stone's advisory proudly claim her as their Student Council representative and stamp and bond salesman. Undoubtedly, stamp sales took a turn for the better with such an attractive saleswoman. ,lean was a member of the Social Committee on Student Council, and pounded the typewriter keys on the Rough Rider Staff. Her pep and enthusiasm enlivened Pep R meetings for two years, and this same spirit caused her classmates to elect her the vice-president of the Sixes, and to bestow upon her the title of the Most Popular Senior Girl. ln addition to these many achievements, Jean was elected Track Maid in I947, an honor surpassed only by becoming the Queen of the Track season. As l left our interview, l experienced the same thrill that had passed through me a week before, when blond, blue-eyed Jean Zagel had walked down the aisle with sweet dignity to be crowned our i948 Track Queen. MARJORIE WILLIAMS f. L A ZQXL J ' x J 4 h ff I One Hundred Fourteen One Hundrcd 1:1-fll'CfI M JW s TRACK, 1948 Last January a group of boys, mostly hurdlers, started track practice in the third-floor halls. After a meeting the first week in February, track practice started in earnest. Returning lettermen and experienced track men from the previous year, along with new prospects, seemed to promise the great team we were to have this year. Some of the better prospects were Don Beard, an excellent sprinterg Bill Dill, Don Alberts, and Gene Felgenhauser in the Senior division: and Jim Ingalls, Chester Probst, and Charley Fehr in the Junior Division. The third week of March proved mild enough for outdoor practice, only two weeks before the first track meet. On April 3 on the Roosevelt campus, a strong, well-balanced Roosevelt team overwhelmed East St. Louis. by winning in both divisions. The following Saturday we Went to University City, confident we would hand them their Hrst dual-meet loss in twenty-five years: however, University City's reserve strength defeated us: l 13M to 99y2. Roosevelt proved it was the team to beat in the Public High League by trouncing Beaumont, Cleveland, and McKinley in a quadrangular meet April I5. QW! vm M 1 mmxiifs One Hundred Szxteen 'i POINT WINNERS On Saturday, April 24, Roosevelt won the Open division of the Maple- wood Relays and was third in the Relay division. Outstanding performances were given by Don Beard, who set a record in the century and ran on two second place relay teams, and George Parker, who was second in the I00-yard dash and also ran on two second place relay teams. The following Friday night, April 30, in what was truly a team victory, Roosevelt won both divisions of the Public High Relays. The team won twelve of the twenty events, took six seconds and two fourths. Charles Harvey, versatile junior trackman, performed ably on five winning relay teams. The next occasion was the District Meet, Saturday, May 8. Roosevelt qualified sixteen men and two relay teams in the prelims and easily won the Senior division 60 points to 27 points from Webster. ln the Junior division Roosevelt was a good third with 24 points. Bob Murray was outstanding by tying for first in the pole vault and setting a new record of I I feet I I M inches. Charles Harvey led the juniors with I5 points. Seventeen happy track men left for Columbia early Friday morning, May I4. Preliminaries were held Friday afternoon and the finals were the next afternoon on a rain-soaked track. The meet was very close at first, but Roosevelfs strength in the latter events gave us our first State Champion- ship by the margin of 8.7 points, but with 33.7 point total. George Parker was the first star with I4M1, points. He won the low hurdles, was nosed out for first in the broad jump by a quarter of an inch, and ran on a second place relay team. Omf Hundred Swmleen ' - Field Day prelims were the next Saturday, May 22, Roosevelt led all qualifiers with thirty-nine men. The Medley Relay team lowered the record of l:39.9 to l:37.7. Field Night, Friday, May 28, rolled around after a week of tense waiting. When the meet started at half-past seven, Roosevelt had the largest cheering section. Roosevelfs superiority was clearly shown as we won all three trophies that were awarded, for Junior championship, Senior championship, and the total points championship. Roosevelt runners placed in every event except the Senior 440-yard dash. Our outstanding event of the meet was the Medley Relay. Our medley team of George Parker, Bill Dill, Marv Land- graf, and Jack Appelbaum again lowered the record to l :36.6. Jack Appel- baum ran the anchor quarter mile in 50.7 seconds, the fastest time recorded in Missouri for high school runners this-year. George Parker was high point man for the Seniors with 23 points. He won the 200-yard low hurdles and broad jump, was second in the l00-yard dash, and ran on the Medley Relay team. Charles Harvey led the juniors with 22 points. He won the pole vault, was second in the broad jump and in the century, and tied for second in the 220-yard dash. This was the most successful track season Roosevelt ever had. Fifty-nine letters were awarded in the Track And the following week, the highest number ever awarded at Roosevelt. The main factor in the success of the day was the coaching. As a result of the ability and sincerity of Coaches Clay Van Reen and lrl Lake, the track squad members, who had utmost confidence in the coaches, gave all they had for the success of the team. LEWIS MEAD Om' Hundred Eighteen Y 1 One Hundred Ninelvun 94.,,,,',, 4 .u-fiaffu-44.,v, .Q TENNIS The Roosevelt tennis team won the city championship this year for the first time in seven years. The team was composed of all new players, with the exception of Richard Lieber, captain of the team. The team started the season on September 20 by winning a straight victory over McKinley with the score of 5-0. The team then went on to defeat Central 4-l. Southwest seemed to be rather hard to beat as the Roosevelt team defeated them by the score of only 3-2. But then continu- ing their high score winning streak, they met Cleveland and then Beaumont and defeated them both by the same score: 4-l. The decisive matches with Soldan-Blewett were postponed many days by rain: but when they were played, the Riders, after trailing all season, beat Soldan-Blewett 4-I and took the championship by one match. The final standings showed Roosevelt with a season record of 24 wins and 6 losses in the first place and Southwest and Soldan-Blewett tied for second with 23 wins and 7 losses each. The only two members of the team who remained undefeated throughout the season were Bill Bettis and Randall Heinecke. This was an outstanding record for these two boys, especially since it was the first year of tennis for both of them. l In an assembly session commemorating the victory, the Public High League Trophy, symbolic of victory, was awarded to the school. Also, letters and championship medals were awarded to Ed Ackermann, jack Appelbaum, Bill Bettis, Dave Heartinger, Randall Heinecke, Bob Kloepper, and Richard Lieber.

HIGH Sporting bright new uniforms, our Rough Riders opened the l948 foot- ball season by defeating last year's district champions, the junior Bills, in a thrilling I6-I3 game. At the half, the Riders seemed to have been doing all the playing, or at least all the tallying, according to the I4-0 score. Early in the fourth quarter, the Bills attempted to even the score by turning in two touchdowns, but Roosevelt succeeded in blocking the final kick, and the score-board read I4-l 3. A safety in the closing minutes assured a victory for the Rough Riders. Final score l6-l 3. McBRIDE ln the second pre-league game, Roosevelt again displayed its ability for intercepting passes, much to the dismay of lVlcBride, who found itself at the wrong end of a I2-0 score. ln the opening minutes of the game, Bill Dill intercepted a McBride pass which set the stage for Loncaric to carry the ball around left end for the first touchdown. The kick for the extra point was not good. McBride had little chance against Roosevelt's excellent defense. Dill and Hacker were the stars gf Roosevelt's offensive play. The Rough Riders did not score again until the ifourth quarter when Loncaric carried the ball over for the second time. lVxc4Bride blocked the kick for the extra point. Now, with two victories behind them, the! Riders were ready to encounter their opponents in the Public High School' League: Southwest, Cleveland, Soldan, McKinley, Central, and Beaumont. ' 4 4 ROOSEVELT LOSES TO SOUTHWEST ln the first league game of the season, Roosevelt met the noted power- house of the Public High League, the Southwest Longhorns, who lived up to their reputation by defeating us 25-0. Although the Rough Riders had their backs to the wall from the beginning of the game, they held the Long- horns to one touchdown in the first quarter. ln the second period it looked as though it would be a close game since both teams played equally well. After the half, Roosevelt carried the ball over the line, only to have the score nullified because of an off-side penalty. ln the meantime, Southwest chalked up two more markers and added one for good measure in the final period. CLEVELAND DEFEATS ROOSEVELT Cleveland moved into first place in the Public High race after defeating the Riders I9-0. Roosevelt made the opening kick-off, but ran into terrific opposition with the Orange and Blue, and were scored upon three plays later. The Riders fumbled on their own 35-yard line, giving their opponents possession of the ball. Only three passes later, the Clevelandites scored another marker. Despite penalties against them in the second quarter, they went over the line for another touchdown. ln the last half, the Rough Riders were determined to put a stop to Cleveland's luck. They excelled in defensive skill and held Cleveland scoreless for the remainder of the game. One Hundred Twenty-three ROOSEVELT DOWNS SOLDAN-BLEVVETT The Roosevelt Rough Riders, playing the Soldan-Blewett Tigers, won their first league victory with a thrilling climax and a close score of 7-6. The Tigers threatened several times, only to be stopped by l..awrence's inter- ception of a pass in the first quarter and Metcalf's recovery of a Soldan fumble on Hackeris kick from the one-yard line. The Tigers intercepted a pass in the third period and penetrated deep into the Rough Riders' territory. Don Spicer removed this threat by intercepting a pass. Still in the third period, the Tigers completed a pass to score a touchdown, but failed to make that oh-so-important extra point. The tide was turned in the final quarter as it was Roosevelt, not Soldan, that made the serious threats. Soldan stopped Loncaric's runs through the line and gained the ball on downs. Spicer, replacing the injured Dill as quarterback, tossed a 27-yard pass to White, who ran 25 yards more for the touchdown, making the score 6-6. Fuchs made good the extra point only to have it nullified by off-side penalty. He proved himself by making the second kick, despite the 5-yard penalty, and saved the day for Roosevelt. fi? - 6 fs.- gt 3'zff't:Q 'QC-1' CENTRAL The Rough Riders trounced Central 33 to 6 for their second consecutive victory. Central took advantage of Roosevelt fumbles in the first quarter to account for their first and only score. Early in the second quarter, the Rough Riders came to life with Don Spicer climaxing the drive, for he tied the score at 6-6, as the kick for the extra point was made. Mel Loncaric led the second Roosevelt offensive which resulted in a l3-6 score at the half. Twice in the third quarter the Riders added to their score: Hacker carrying the ball over for the first touchdown, and Loncaric for the second one. Fuchs kicked for the extra point. ln the final period Lawrence, taking a pass from Spicer, carried the ball to the 4-yard line, and Maurer then went over. Fuchs again kicked for the extra point, making the final score read 33-6. ROOSEVELT CRUSHED McKINLEY The Roosevelt Rough Riders were playing true to form as they trampled the McKinley Goldbugs, 24-0, for their third straight victory. From the beginning of the game, the Rough Riders played outstanding football. The first time they controlled the ball they advanced to the Goldbugs' l2-yard line, Dill scored the first six points. The kick for the extra point was wide. Still in the first quarter of the game, Lawrence blocked a McKinley kick, One Hundred Twenty-four One Hundred Twenty-five George Anastasoff and the Riders again took over in the Coldbugs' territory. This time Loncaric scored the marker, but an attempted plunge for the extra point was stopped. Roosevelt almost scored again when Don Spicer, making the longest run of the year, carried the ball sixty yards to the McKinley l9. McKinley's line tightened, and Roosevelt was unsuccessful in scoring. ln the third quarter, a pass was intercepted by Roosevelt, two first downs were made, and Spicer went over from the 2-footline for the touchdown. The kick failed again. Ray Maurer, playing quarterback, raced fourteen yards in the opening play of the fourth period, and made the final marker, but again the extra point was lost. While the first string line was resting, late in the last quarter, McKinley advanced to the one-yard line with thirty-five seconds remaining in the game. The starting linemen were sent back in and prevented the almost certain score, maintaining the shut-out victory. BEAUMONT After winning three straight games, Roosevelt's hopes for defeating the destined champs from Beaumont were shattered. Bill Bullock took the ball over for the Blue jackets after a series of running plays and a completed pass. The final score was: Beaumont 25, Roosevelt I3. The following boys earned their letters in football: Bill Dill Don Albert Bill Kuhns Bob Lawrence Jim Metcalf Bob Parks joe Sansone Ronald Blaine Paul Fuchs Herb Hacker Ferd Kaufman Mel Loncaric Ray Maurer Charles Raich William Rolfe Elmer Bram George Rutherford Harry Brown Don Spicer Rich White Our congratulations to these boys and the other members of the team for their splendid performance in the 1948 football season!

Roosevelt succeeded in defeating McKinley, Soldan- Blewett, Cleveland, Southwest and in tying Beaumont and Central. Their only loss to C. B. C. was a heart-breaking I4-I2 defeat. These future football stars, trained by Coach Van Reen, certainly turned in a favorable record. Such promising young players as Ral-Ley, Tretter, Zak, Carter, Myers, Medley, Kammien, McBride, Chiacsek, Fuca, and Boehle will bolster next year's team.

April Zl--Mr. Hill introduces the speaker of the day, Mr. Ralph Moberly, a veteran G. I. studying at Kansas University. l-le comes to Roosevelt as part of a tour to explain his idea of a Lasting World Peace . This plan, called Federal Union, lnc. , is nothing he himself dreamed up. It has been a plan in the minds of a group of people for a number of years. The principle of the Federal Union, lnc. is this: the world would be combined into one state, so to speak, each country thereby giving up its individual tariff law, taxes, and restrictions and all its immigra- tion laws. Every country would be open for trade, and the United States might be flooded with lower priced articles made by cheap labor. This, Mr. Moberly said, would, after a short time, raise the standard of living of not only the United States but of the whole world. ln addition there would be a world court: the representatives to which would be chosen according to the population of the separate countries, thus, China, Russia, Japan, and such countries would have a larger representation than the United States, England, or France. There would also be a plan for a world army if it were needed. After a lengthy speech by Mr. Moberly, the students ask questions. April 23-Fish, again. At least they should fix it a few different ways. Don't you think so? April 26--Mr. Kenneth Teasdale, the fourth member of the Bar Associa- tion of St. Louis to speak to the student body on Freedom and the Constitution , speaks on Freedom of Speech, Press, and Religion. ln his talk he cites cases that show where the rights of the individual to free speech were infringed on by individuals or concerns and how the Constitution insured to these citizens protection of these freedoms. A question period follows the lecture. April 27-Well, the fateful day has come again. You guessed it--report card day. just shut your eyes and hope for the best. Clean-up Tacky Dance after school-lights, curtains, and Music Msaster. All for only ten cents. Better hustle to get your ticket.

May 26-Who is she-the Queen? Strains of band music, the ardent faces of the students, the blare of trumpets are part of this crowning of the Track Queen. Then down the aisle moves the maids: blonde Ellamae Whitmire, vivacious Betty Braden, brown-haired Jeanne Altman, fair, black-haired Kit Bragg, and lithesome Louise Wishon. After these girls comes the Track Queen of l948, Jean Zagel, blond and radiant. She is escorted to the throne by Mayor George Parker. Here jean Fleming, taking the place of Jeanette Bange, the retiring Queen, places the sparkling crown on jean's curls. It is an impress- ive sight. Then Mr. Van Reen speaks to the student body.

Mr. Van Reen introduces the boys individually and gives his term, the event he stars in, and the points he has won for our school.

So join the crowd as The Circus is Coming to Town with Helen Crask, Mary Dill, Dorothy Pfaff, Carla Erick, Kay Stullken, and ,Ioan Rogers leading the parade. Stepping into the ring on the right is Bring 'em back alive Wally Pyne, courageous animal trainer, with Dick Murphy, the ferocious lion, Bill Hangen, the man-eating tiger, and Paul Waltman, the vicious bear. Here comes the lighter part of the show, those Uswoonderfuln Can-Can Girls. Dancing from left to right are Betty Braden, Jean Fehr, ,loan Carter, Juanita Fischer, Lois Ruff, Delores Krumme, and Georgia Muskopf. Why, here are the Market Street Commandos, Jim O Brien and Bob Graham, and following closely on their heels are Dudley West, as the Big Bad Wolf, and Mary Slobodian as poor Little Red Riding Hood. And what's a circus without music? Jean Zagel, Carol Knoll, and Jeanne Altman will aptly answer that one with their interpretation of Till Then. Solid, girls, solid! Taking the center ring are the Grand Follies, starring Bill Finney, Phil Early, Maurice Davis, Richard Murphy, Paul Waltman, Dale Lift, Willard Dillow, Don K. Wilson, Clyde Blair, Marvin Landgraf, Jean Logerman, and Richard Kossmann, while in the ring on the left is the Equestrian Act, with Fred Schuster, Rudy Cesak, and Betty Abell.

Here we are, ladies and gentlemen, in mysterious Arabia, with the king, Marv Landgraf, watching the famous Arabian dancing girls, Lois Mahler, Lois Blatt, Florence Kausch, Pat Powers, joe Cope, Anita Ousley, Ruth Kelpe, and Johann Depriest.

Here it is: the Grand Finale, starring the entire Senior Class singing the class song, written by Mary Lou Mears. So ring down the curtain, as the Seniors bow gracefully off the stage, and we leave the auditorium with thoughts of popcorn and cotton candy and memories of a wonderful Senior Aud. lVlARjORlE WILLIAMS One Hundred Forty-Hue ATMOSPHERE Have you ever passed a school on a Saturday? Have you ever wandered through its empty, desolate halls on a day when not a single pupil was there? Can you imagine the still, almost eerie silence? Suppose you came to school on just one of these days. When you entered the building and looked down the long, silent corridors, how would you feel? You would see the lockers standing green and solemn-row after row like an endless parade of regimented soldiers. These very halls on a school day are filled with crowds of blustering, laughing, noisy boys and girls. A classroom once the scene of hilarity and misery, is now just an empty room. The late afternoon sunlight casts- shadows across the empty desks- desks, holding a thousand stories that would rival those of the best journalists. The stillness is broken only by the methodical ticking of the big, brown clock on the wall. The blackboards, are streaked from the custoclian's sponge. This room with its calm, melancholy atmosphere is rather pathetic. This building without spirit and life is like a spring without budding flowers. Yet, in a day or two the groups of students. will come back and make the school warm and alive with their laughter. This once desolate place will again, for a school week, be illuminated with the happiness only a place with people can know. PATRICIA BIDDLE X Jig? mag , F f X fx lxhll lm T TT xg Sifixoizxolafivtwoxilii passing 'beshs senior ed?-tion. One Hundred Forty-six D' 'j 1 'Vi One Hundred lforlu-.wean THE LITTLE THINGS School days, school days, Dear Old Golden Rule days, Readin' and 'ritin' and 'rithmetic--' That's right. We do come to school to learn the three R's. Far be it from me to contradict a good old song like that one! Our chief purpose in attending school is to glean knowledge as more scholarly writers have put it. But sing a little more of the song, down to these lines: ' You were my queen in calico, l was your bashful, barefoot beau--H Those are the important lines in the song. They typify the things that make school life such a wonderful memory--not the dynamic big achieve- ments, but the so-called little things . Remember your first Bwana, and how hard you worked to fill its pages with big-name signatures? Remember dissecting a perch in Biology 2, and moaning for days about that formaldehyden? Remember trying to stretch the five minutes between classes to include a dash to your locker, a few gulps at the nearest drinking fountain, and gossip with the Ugangn? You may not remember the years during which Madame La Guillotine was busiest in France, but chances are you'll never forget the Sixes' wiener roast on Class Day, Rough Rider's latest news, and the shivers that danced up and down your spine as the Track Queen ascended the steps to the throne, or the wild flurry that accompanied signing up for classes, and the nervousness before your first Comprehensive. How about the scramble for choice seats in the aud, or the breathless anticipation as the announcer proclaimed the winner on Field Day? Remember singing and cheering in the buses going home from football games, as contrasted with the quiet reverence that surged through you the first time you heard the carolers at Christmas? Pasting pictures of the latest Hollywood dream man on your locker door, trying to make a good impression on the little blonde in Chem. l, running the track in the broiling September sun, and strolling home from school in the spring--these we won't forget. All of them go to make up the real school life that will seem so far away some day. They aren't dramatic, earth-shaking incidents that will startle the world, in truth, they are of importance only to us. But they are the things that we will remember in fiften or twenty years, when the Sherman Silver Act has long been forgotten, and when hypoteneuse triangles hang hazily in our brains. They are the precious memories, the so-called little things of school life. NIARJORIE. WILLIAMS N ,Q 7, f V' 1 mf! E-9: xr' 4 Al ze f ,x W 0 I If '. cm: One-Hundred Forty-eight GARDENING At the first twitter of the robin and as the first, fuzzy buds of the pussy willow showed their heads, l again took up my hoe and dedicated myself to the soil. Donned in blue jeans and armed with spade, rake, shovel and, of course, seeds, l attacked my job with zest. l dug, shoveled, and raked, and dug again, and pretty soon l had exposed a number of perfectly disgusting slippery worms, much to my horror, for l am a dyed in the wool worm- hater. The worms came out, and the hungry birds came down. l had seen these particular birds sitting on various limbs of the tree near which l was digging, but l thought they were just interested in meg my ego was surely deflated when I discovered they were interested in the worms! Not a bit of thanks did they give me for digging their dinner for them, but just a well-filled, self-satisfied smirk. Ignoring the birds, l went at the job of planting each tiny seed with loving care. Visions of picture-book flowers, like the ones. seen on the packets of seeds, swept through my head and the words, Your garden will be a vision of loveliness, a rainbow of color with these giant multi-colored zinnias ran through my brain. My garden was a vision all right, and how! The planting was easy compared to keeping the weeds out, but, as the directions said, To insure complete success, keep the garden free from weeds. Towards the end, l began to think it would be better just to let the weeds take over: they were growing so much faster and better than my flowers anyway. Soon, however, my bashful posies showed their tiny heads, and took their first look at at world. My joy knew no bounds as they struggled. They defied the law of gravity as they stood upg that is, they defied it for a while, but then some of them surrendered. Life was too hard, too exhausting. All the while the weeds were making a wonderful success of living. The more l pulled up, the more grew in their place! I was getting no place' fast. Finally, a few straggly zinnias made the supreme effort and produced two buds. Buds on my zinnias! I was thrilled and filled with pride, l looked at them each morning, and then, one morning, they bloomed a dull, gray white. A multitude of color was over-statement, to say the least. This disappointment was too much for me: l was so disgusted that l let my garden go to weeds. l still have a garden, a garden of weeds. BETTY BRADEN A l 4 'X ' lyk , fb -1 , i if ea, One Hundred Forty-nine THE BEATEN PATH Oh, no! Not down to Mr. Hill! Have I done something that bad that Mr. Gammeter isn't good enough for me to see? These thoughts rushed through my mind upon receiving the notice from the office that I was wanted in Mr. I'Iill's office immediately. Slowly, almost cautiously, l picked up my books and crept out of my study hall. As I walked my so-called last mile from 328 to the office, the events of the past few days flew through my cluttered mind till I could no longer remember whether it was yesterday that l ate the apple in the corridor or not. No, I hadn't skipped in the past week, and, to my knowledge, had done nothing worth calling me for. What could I have done? They couldn't have caught me--- You sent for me? Yes, but I wish you would wait a few more minutes until I clear up this other matter so that I will have time enough to speak with you. As I sat there on the bench, my hands refused to rest quietly on my lap as I expected them to do, but insisted upon nervously twisting each other. My mind was so confused that I was unable to think clearly. After a minute of looking around me at the office of the principal, I thought aimlessly of- oh, many things: the first day I spent at Roosevelt, the day I was called to the office for cutting into lunch-room lines, and also the day that I strutted into Mr. Gammeter's office knowing that I was not sent for or was sent to him, but went to him on my own free will, asking him to O. K. an advisory change, which was definitely not because of something I had or had not done, but simply because I wanted to be student council representative for a new- jay adviser. I remember how I loved the large building, which at the time meant only a place to spend every week day until the wonderful summer made its appearance. I was sarcastically called NEW-JAY and every trick becoming a senior was played on innocent me. Except for the dash for the precious food in the lunch-room, I found the daily routine unexciting, but interesting. As for cutting into the lunch-room lines, I was truly sorry that I was guilty of such a sneaky trick, but I was glad that I was caught the first time I tried it. Never again did I stoop to such a foul deed as I now had a slight, ever so slight love for my fellow creatures-you know, Brotherhood. My mind again began to drift when-- You may come in now. Yes, sir, I said. Do you know why I sent for you? No, sir, I meekly replied. There is going to be an assembly next week, and I wish you would prepare a speech for the program. IP I mean me? You mean to all the other students? 'Would you mind speaking before a familiar audience like the student body? Yes, sir: I mean, no, sir. See me before school tomorrow, and I will give you the topic. One Hundrezl Fifty I slowly walked out of his office, weak but no longer scared and glad to have the ordeal over. As I casually strolled down the hall, Sue came up to me and said, Shame on you, being called down to the office. What did you do now? Nothing at all. I KNEW what Mr. Hill wanted all the time. You should be as sure of yourself as I am and you wouldn't be so afraid all the time. After this little speech of my own, I hastened my pace, afraid that there might be visible signs of my relief from my trial: also my knees felt as if they were going to give way any moment and I certainly didn't want her to know what I felt prior to my session with my friend, Mr. Hill. Please don't anyone tell her. My life rests in your hands and right now I feel it slipping. PEGGY BRADEN 'W jiQ L! MY DAY CF REST My day of rest, like that of hundreds of other students, is Saturday. Throughout the week from Monday to Friday, I dream of the advent of that wonderful day. My every activity, my every movement at school is planned in the expectancy of it. I think of sleeping until eleven o'clock, of loafing around the house all day, and of no school work. Then finally, after five school days of waiting, the eve of the big day arrives, I go to bed late Friday night, but what's the difference? Tomorrow's my day of rest. What happens Saturday morning? I am aroused from my peaceful slum- ber by my mother at seven. i'There is work to be done, she exclaims. So I start my day of rest by washing the windows. When they are done, I eat a hearty breakfast and settle myself into a nice, easy chair with a good magazine. I am quickly blasted from this vantage point by a request from my mother to sweep the walks. When this is over, I can go to the store, clean the basement, help my dad paint the storm windows, and, of course, do my homework Now don't get the wrong impression, I don't mind doing these little household chores, but after all, this is my day of rest. Then at three I am through with my regular work, and my father approaches- me with the keys to the family car. Does he say, Here, son, you can use the car tonight? No! He says, Here, son, while you're not doing anything, wash and polish the car because your mother and I are going to use it tonight. Week after week, I build up my idea of a good Saturday, and it is shat- tered by the same old routine. I suppose that I should be getting accustomed to this procedure, but even now I am thinking of next Saturday, my grand and glorious day of rest. ROBERT KLOEPPER One Hundred Fifty-one Om' l',lIf7lfI'f'lf F1'f'1uf1u WHEN THE FIRE GOES OUT Did you ever stop to think where the fire goes when it goes out? Does it go out into the world looking for a job, or does it go out on a date? According to Noah fnot the one with the arkj out means Haway from the interior, beyond the limits of existence. Away from what interior? All the fires l ever knew were right in the middle of what they were burning, so they couldn't be away from the interior. And then everyone knows that when a fire goes out it's right within the limits of its own pile of ashesg and when it goes beyond existence, it goes out, so we're right back where we started. Maybe the fire goes out with another fire to a party. Most of us come back from going out, some time or other, but once the fire is out, it stays there. Maybe their car dicln't have enough wind to blow it home: maybe the radiator had too much water in itg maybe they were stranded without any gas. Who knows? A variety of things could happen when two fires go out. Perhaps when a fire gets tired of burning it decides to go out and look for a job. But where under the sun would a fire find a job? No employer wants a person working for him who is always smoking on the job. Or one who gets all burned up at the least little thing. So the fire can't find a job and doesn't have any money to buy food, which is of course, oxygen. And with no money it can't take another fire out, and so it has to stay in. Before long the poor fire is out of money, out of a job, and almost ready to die out. But where will it go when it dies? Will it go out? Don't ask me. l don't know. l have never been a fire, but l've had a lot of flames. CORONA POWERS Teacher: Johnny, what are three words often used by students in school? A Johnny: I don't know.

All I Want for Christmas is My Two Front Teeth U Gardner JUNIOR TOWN MEETING OF THE AIR DECEMBER 9 The annual Junior Town Meeting of the Air given at Roosevelt I-Iigh School, was recorded and broadcast over Station KXOK on December 9. The topic under discussion was, Labor Unions in the United States are Too Powerful. The affirmative side, taken by George Lorantos and Joseph Bevirt, held that when any organization becomes powerful enough to stop! production to the point of endangering the lives of many citizens and even the whole nation, its power needs to be taken away from it. The negative point of view on the question, taken by Charles Wetzel and Bill Richards, upheld that an organization that had lifted labor from the lowest class of man to substantial wage-earners and given it to a decent means of living should not have its power reduced, as this would result in having big business overpower laborers once again, and the country's economic standards would not be as they are now-the most stable and substantial in the world. After the speeches, students asked questions of the speakers to clarify certain points. Mr. Bruce Barrington, News Director of Star-Times, acted as Master of Ceremonies.
