Those were the happy days when we were only on part-time duty and could take naps at home instead of at school, fOrla Irwin, please observej. The next year, discovering that life in the service wasn't so bad after all, we decided to continue our training a while longer. Chief Warrant officers, Watson and Latta, took us in hand. VVhat a shock it was, however, when we found out about those things called tests , something new in our young! lives. Remember the time three-fourths of us, gave the wrong answer to the question Does it snow in Januaryni In second grade we started drawing Indian pictures and painting pottery. Billy Town- send directed the rhythm band of twenty-seven pieces. This was the year, too, that Fred Hole got up early every morning to feed hay and water. to a certain fourth-grader's wooden hobby horse! Third grade found us in Captain Kennedy's room, racing to see who could write to one hundred the fastest. Hughes always won, darn it.---There was quite a bit of jealousy between the kids who had to drink milk and those whose parents let them have orange juice--. Also, everybody who was anybody played The Old Witch . in 1935 we graduated. to the fourth grade and the main floor. Nadine started com- ing to town school and simply bewitched all the boys with her blonde hair, much to every other girl's chagrin! Fifth grade: Everybody got pretty much banged up this year when the girls kept hit- ting their heads on the cement when they played on the bars and the boys were kept after school for putting rocks in their snowballs. It wasn't a pleasant day when Jerry and Pat got taken off the citizenship roll for passing notes. QMy, my, even thenlj Reinember April Fool's Day in sixth grade when little Innocence Kessler got us to put a tack on Miss Burkhead's chair? But she was sorry when we all had to stay after school! April Fool ! ! I The girls played jacks and roller-skated like mad all spring. The boys wore their knuckles to the bone in marble tournaments. Yippee-seventh grade and junior High. We could always count on Gus Strohmeier fand still canj to provide entertainment during all dull moments, especially in study hall. But Mr. Indvik seemed to take him seriously and Gus had ia butch when Indvik finished with him. In eighth grade we had already gained the reputation of being the worst-behaved class in school. Not bad after only one year of Junior High. Mathematics was' every girl's favorite subject. The reason! Mr. Miner! He surely got a lot of Valentines that year. In ninth grade we were joined by our country friends. Blondie really stepped in and made herself at home with our upperclassmen. We didn't act as if we quite knew it all that year because the Senior High students seemed to look down on us little Freshies . Were we fresh! just inquisitive, I guess. World History in tenth grade wasn't so bad, but, oh, those notes that Mr. Mast enjoy- ed reading. It was in this year that we had trouble with our English-understand it yet, Conger! No one shall ever forget those roof-raising arguments in Mrs. McI..ean's room, the eleventh year. How Ted and james would mix it up. Holmberg, how are we to know just which way your brain will work? The Rainbow Canteen furnished -a grand evening's entertainment for the juniors and Seniors on May 7. The Seniors didn't have such good results when they decided to start a fued and took jennett, Prendergast, and Allem for a ride-fno two-way joy ride eitherj. It was then that Admiral Ehrhardt decided such fueds should stop. The end of 'our journey has finally been reached after traveling the thirteen seas through all calms and storms. For those who were able to continue with us it means so long , but welll not soon forget S. C. High. We want to wish the best of luck to all, es- pecially to 'those who will soon join Uncle Sam and travel to more distant parts. We also extend to thosemembers who are already in the service our best wishes. So end thirteen major battles on the field of learning. May we be victorious in all future engagements.

Q, Zin rmnriam As we, the class of 1944, approach the commencement season, our thoughts are of Bob Fluth, a former classmate. We can verify that Bob enjoyed sports even though he could not participate wholeheartedly. Bob liked nothing more than to play a practical joke on some pal. We pay tribute to a loyal friend and classmate. First Row: Merle Galbraith, Archie Colburn, James Estey, John Henry Criss, Victor Amdt. Russell Baker, Clarence Ausborn.

This society looks upon education as a total product measured by these four dimensions of life. Election to this society is an honor for attainments already made and for the promises they contain of a continued excellence in the ideals of our school. The members of this society were chosen because of their high standards of character, their ability to lead, their con- stant willingness to render service, and their high rank in scholarship. No honor conferred by the school excels that represented by this society for it exemplifies the fundamental ob- jectives for which schools are instituted and gives recognition to those who have most near- ly attained thesexobjectives.

The purpose of the organization is to create a more active and in- telligent interest in high school dramatics. The aims of the society are to encourage stu- dents to attain a better mastery of language, to develop poise and self control, and to ap- preciate dramatic literature-and its techniques. This year we initiated thirty-one new members. Membership in the society is not only a reward for work already done, but it is evidence of a desire to be associated with those who are striving to press onward in the field of dramatic arts.

Chapter experienced a successful year. The goals of the chapter are to promote leadership and to gain experience in farming through chapter activities. The chapter started the year by harvesting the potato plot. A good lesson was learned from this unsuccessful venture. The members entertained the faculty at the park with a chicken fry. The corn yield test plot was on the Irving Deaton farm. The annual Parent and Son Banquet was held in the Community Building this year. Since it was not necessary for the members to borrow money from the Credit Assoc- iation, the money was invested in a S5100 G bond and three S25 F bonds. A carload of certified seed potatoes was purchased from North Dakota and sold to the farmers in the surrounding communityp Iowa Farmer degrees were awarded to Bob Martin and Ted Huser. Plans are being made for a soybean test plot for next summer. An F. F. A. Rally Day was sponsored March 18. We and the surrounding chapters took part in parliamentary procedure and extemporaneous speaking contests. There was also a large recreational program. A basketball team was organized and, although we did not win all the games, much fun was had. The chapter officers- for the year were president, Jack Longg vice-president, Ted Hus- c-rg secretary, Danny Halevg treasurer, Dean Lee, reporter, Don Hosteng. W-it HGMEMAKERS First.

VESPER SERVICE The annual Christmas Vesper Service was one of the musical highlights in the activ- ity calendar of the past year. Ninety-two students from the senior high glee clubs, directed by Miss Oppedahl, made up the largest a cappella vesper choir to sing at such a service. The brass sextet, saxophone quartet, and flute quartet, directed by Mr. Holtz, played several impressive arrangements of well-known carols. joseph NVeber, the narrator for the program, read portions of the Christmas Story from The Scriptures. The service included many interesting arrangements by small vocal groups among which two French carols A joyous Christmas Songy' and Bring a Torch, Jeanette, Isa- bella , girl's sextetg Glory to God Bortniansky, boy's octet, Hush-a-by, Holv Child , senior trio, and the contralto and tenor duet, Kennedys i'The Infant King , sun r bv is .

The Concert Band consisted of fiftymembers when they played for the Minstrel Show. The band also played for three basketball games. The band will participate in a preliminary contest and a state contest. XVe wish to take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation for the help and direction Mr. Holtz has given us.

MIXED CHORUS Much of the high school music activity centers around the Mixed Chorus, the person- nel of which is selected from a representative group of students capable of assuming addi- tionallresponsibility. Many of these folks are the students who make up the small vocal groups and devote many hours outside of school to rehearsal. This year the above group lived up' to expectations when they combined effort with the remaining vocalists from both glee clubs to take part in the Musical Extravaganza, which was received by an enthusiastic audience. This program was sponsored by both vo- cal and instrumental departments and given in two parts, the first, a Minstrel Show by the glee clubs and the second, a concert by the band. The white-face minstrel proved to be a lot of fun for the entire cast and brought a variety of talent before the spot-lights. The chorus opened the program by singing Prelude from Cycle of Life by Cain. They also sang VVaring's This ls My Country and VVe'll Stand Behind the Flag by Kluck- man. For the Grand Finale, the combined glee clubs joined the band for a massed ensemble presenting The Wlorld is Waiting for the Sunrise . In addition to the numbers in which the entire ensemble participated the boys' quartet sang two songs, Roll On, Beautiful Sea, Roll On Qjoe VVeber, soloistj, and Virginia Lullaby tMadelyn Hacke, soloistj. Betty Lou Stout and Fred Hole blended their voices in XVhat Are Wle To Say? from Romberg's Girl of the Golden NVest . To add a bit of humor Bill Townsend and Dean Lee sang Hurray for the Life of a Fireman . The entire chorus joined tapsters Jerry Jennett and Sheila Mayberry with Annie Rooney .

Many of these fellows have had the privilege of singing in winning glee clubs in State Contests during the last two years and have become valuable contributors to small vocal groups. The graduating sen- iors are Hole, Huser, VVeber, Von Ehwegen, Krueger, Tapley, Townsend, Holmberg, Smith, and Hunziker. Fred Hole and joseph Weber sang for three years in the boys' quartet and represented the school in tenor and bass solo event respectively for two successive years. Bill Townsend entered baritone solo even in his senior year. Fred Hole and Ted Huser, as first tenors, were three-year members of the Madrigal Singers who won Division I ratings in State Contests. joe Weber joined the group in his junior year and Bill Townsend in his senior year. The Minstrel Show proved without a doubt that many members of this somewhat ser- ious-looking group pictured above, have a generous streak of mirth and merriment hidden beneath their questionably sober exterior. Ted Huser very ably presided as master of cere- monies and Bill Townsend, james Holmberg, Glenn Smith, Charles Tapley, john Henry Criss, Russ jennett, Dean Lee, and jack Shannon served as black-face comedians. The entire glee club participated in this program as well as in the Christmas Vesper service where they sang a lovely a cappella arrangement of the Seventeenth Century Carol, VVhile By My Sheep by jungst. GIRLS GLEE CLUB The sixty-five girls who composed the Girls' Glee Club the first semester concluded 1943 with the annual Christmas Vesper Service. The second semester, because of the state contest regulations, the group was limited to only twenty-eight members and six alternates. The senior girls, many of whom have done outstanding work in small groups, arc Sheila Mayberry, Betty Lou Stout, Marjorie Kessler, Gwyn Hughes, jerry jennett, Pat Prendergast, Ethel Lou Byers, Twyla Mae Larson, Dorothy Sierks, Wanda Summers, Ma- jel Hines, june Flessner, joyce Hansen, Marjorie Barney, and Dorothy Irwin. Several from this group were featured performers in the Minstrel Circle of Music Extravaganza --our early spring program. The senior soloists this year were Betty Lou Stout, mezzo-soprano, Sheila Mayberry, soprano, and Ethel Lou Byers, alto. This is Sheila's second year in solo work. Next year will see considerable change in the personnel of the sextet. Sheila Mayberry, Betty Lou Stout, Gwyn Hughes, Marjorie Kessler, and jerry jennett are seniors. Marjorie Kessler and Pat Prendergast were two-year members of the Madrigal sing- ers. Sheila Mayberry joined the group in her senior year. The contest selections were How Blest Are They by Tschaikovsky, River, River fChilean Folk Songl, Come VVhere My Love Lies Dreaming by Stephen Foster, and Mio Tresoro tMy Treasurej Becucci.

The Larrou Tigers, this year's conference champs, invaded the Indian's campground for ,the first game of the season. The Indians suffered a. defeat of 6 to 0, but held the offensive Carroll eleven to a one touchdown lead. Sept. 24. Journeying to Storm Lake for non-conference game, after being de- feated by Carroll, the Indians came out on top with a score of 13 to 12. Oct. 1. Overcoming a lead of 14 to 12 at the half of the Jefferson game, the Indians downed the Ramblers 18 to 14. Oct. 8. After two straight victories the team had a lot of fire, but they hadn't met with a backfield that had the speed of Har1an's team, and were bowled over 41 to 0. Oct. 15. Rockwell City was the In- dian's Homecoming rivals and, after a tie jinx for so many years, this years tribe broke it by winning 31 to 19. Oct. 22. It seemed that the winning of alternate games was the fate of the Indians for the season. Denison led by'a score of 14 to 7 at the final gun. Oct. .29. The Indians invaded the Odebolt camp and, while holding them scoreless, tallied for 32 points. Nov. 11. Snow six inches deep the week of the Armistice Day game at Ida Grove was no barrier to the team. On the 5-yard stripe twice, once at the end of the game, the Indians failed to score, and were beaten 6 to 0. We had a fair football season this year, winning 50 per cent of our games. All the fellows got a lot out of the games and were true sports all the way through. . i L it 3 1 x if 5 A A 1 ' I as 5 fi I is IL t ew , L . 3 . X, ' . x 5. ..

'tk' Ms. .Q ,tt X DICK, JOHNNY CRISS was a starter at left end and snagged many a pass to add up yardage. Johnny will be back next year and will be a great help in our aerial offensive. JIM ESTEY held down the right end position for the Indians and played nice ball. He'll be in the Army Air Force next year, and, if he knocks 'em down as he did in football, he'll be an ace. TRUCK PONTIOUS got his name for being the big boy on the team. The opponents always thought twice before trying to run through his tackle position. JOE WEBER came out for football a few weeks late and for his first time. He played his first game against Jefferson and stayed in the whole game, helping to hold that line when the going got tough. Joe's a senior and will be in the Air Force next year. DICK AMICK will bb back again next year at tackle position. Dick is a swell sport and took a lot of kidding from the rest of the fellows. VIC ARNDT was a three-year letter winner this year at left guard. Being an all-round player, he was on the all-conference first team, on Jack North's All-State honor roll, and one of the co-captains of this year's tribe. Vic has joined the Army Air Corps. JACK HOOK was guard and the other co-captain. He was on the All-Conference second team and on Jack North's All-State honor roll. He is a senior and will be missed a great deal in the line. . PICK-UP tbecause he's smaller than Truck and ran around with himj DOWNS was a sophomore this year, but handled the pigskin at center position like a veteran. He was a second team All-Conference center. RUSS JENNETT called signals from the quarterback position. Russ was a fast. hard hitting back and will be back next fall, battling hard. WILLY SCHNIRRING was the big boy in the back field. fitting in the fullback position. Many a yard was gained by his plunges through the middle- He was on the All-Conference second team MELV CARTER, only a sophomore this year, was in at halfback and made many touchdowns on his speed. h JESS SHANNON saw a lot of action in playing halfback. He has speed and should see a lot of ball next year. CHUCK WEIDEMAN was at halfback. Although he was small and light, he was hard to get a hold of. Chuck will be seen playing a lot of ball in the future. CORDY CORDERMAN was a reserve guard. He didn't see much action, but watch him next year. MERLE WRIGHT, a senior, saw a little action in a guard position. OZZIE AUSBORN, a junior, saw much action at guard and will be back next fall. LELAND ZIMMER, a senior, was a reserve backfield man.

VVe journeyed to Ida Grove for the second game and dropped one conference game to our old rivals. We defeated Harlan, last year's conference champs, in two over-time periods and led at the half way mark of the conference race. During the last half we were undefeated and were undisputed champs of the Mid- VVest Conference. The Indians came through the Sac County Tournament as county champs. I The Indians, by defeating Lake City in the opener of the Sectional Tournament, drew Rockwell City who had defeated them earlier in the season. The game with Rockwell City ended the best season Sac .City had seen in five years.
