Butler C, The World of Tomorrow: A Challenge On June I4 approximately one hundred fifty of us will receive otir diplomas. a recognition of four years in high school, To some of us this achievement is a stepping stone towards a goal, to others it represents four years of pleasant association and good times: to still others it stands for a period of wasted time. All of us, however, are looking forward to the same thing, the world of tomorrow. What will it be? A small percentage of the class has worked in these four years toward further education. These few contem- plate more advanced study in colleges, training schools, and universities: and so their problem of tomorrow's world may be postponed for awhile. A number of us cannot pursue education beyond high school, yet we have a genuine determination to get ahead and to succeed in life. This group, in future years, will derive as much as possible from their work: they will give service. It is they who will be leaders in their community, who will bend every effort toward making a better society, socially and economically. Many of us will leave school with one idea, to get a job, any kind of a job. A majority will find that job, and in it they will remain. In these four years of school- ing they worked without regard for the future: thus they will work tomorrow. Lacking the necessary motivation to spur them on to do better things, they will still be in the Page one same spot thirty years from now, married. comfortable perhaps. but with little to look back upon and still less to look forward to. There are those of us, too many of us, who will carry into the world of tomorrow the same disregard for author- ity that we have shown during these four years. Unless we change, we will become society's outcasts, lawbreakers, undesirable citizens, petty criminals, even major offenders. That some of us will spend our world of tomorrow in confinement in prisons or disciplinary institutions is de- plorable. This, then, is the class of 1939. citizens of a world that teems with opportunity, a world that offers its wealth to any ambitious and resourceful individual. At no time in history have chances for advancement been so numerous, so challenging. That world out there demands men with ideas: it asks for intelligence, originality, leadership, charac- ter. That universe into which we step is one in which competition is keen, where intellect is needed to solve the ever-increasing complexities life offers, where justice is swift. where success does not depend on chances or luck. Equipped with whatever qualifications we have made for ourselves in these years just past, we pause, knowing that the world of tomorrow, like that of yesterday and today, will be exactly what we make it. we Leaders, Scholars, Servers l MEMBERS OF 1939 NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY First row: Jack Hunt, Kathleen McCormick, June Perkins, Avice Rye, Leonard Sheldrake.

Good Citizens Because they received 720 points based on scholarship, attendance, athletics, white and yellow report cards returned, general citizenship, and other qualifications. the senior class was presented the Citizenship Cup at the Honors assembly. The class of '39 won from the freshmen by a margin of ll5 points and from the sophomores by 190 points. In athletics the senior boys won both basketball and in- door baseball championships, while the girls took the speed- ball championship and were third in basketball honors. Seniors had the highest percentage in scholarship and the lowest percentage in unsatisfactory absences all year. The lowest tardiness record was theirs the first semester, but the freshman had the lowest percentage this semester. On the returning of white and yellow report cards and in attendance, the senior class lost points. Page two Gladys Allen Trophy Because she exemplified throughout her high school career skill and sportsmanship in athletics, Gladys Tebo was awarded the Gladys Allen Memorial Trophy at the Honors assembly May 26. For three years Gladys has participated in all types of sports. She was a member of her class basketball team as a sophomore and junior, and she captained the senior squad. ln swimming she was equally prominent, having won first place in diving in this year's meet. For three years she has played volley- ball and baseball, and was in charge, not only of volleyball but also of tennis for the Sports Coun- cil this year. An all-around athlete, Gladys has well lived up to the require- ments of this trophy, given in memory of Gladys Allen, who would have graduated with the class of 1936 and who played the game, not for the honor to be gained but for the love of it. This is the third year that the award has been made. lt was won by Helmi Mannesto last year and by Mary VanBuskirk in 1937. Gertrude Hills Trophy Having displayed a spirit of genuine friendliness, a fine attitude of cooperation, an unfailing sense of responsibility, and a capacity for loyal service, Kathleen McCormick of the class of 1939 has been awarded the Gertrude Hills Mem- orial Trophy, which is given annually to the senior girl who, during her high school career. has best exemplified the ideals of true iyoung womanhood for which Miss Ger- trude Hills stood. Ranking in the upper one-third of her class, Kathleen has achieved a scholastic record which, combined with other necessary qualities, has earned her election to the National Hon- ' or Society. Kathleen's interest in varied school activities became apparent when she was in the seventh grade. At that time she joined the library staff. where she has served for the past six years. Another early interest was speech, an activity in which she has achieved particular recogni- tion. Participating in declama- tion and in extempore speaking. she has won first place three times in local and twice in sub- district competition, and once in the final district contest. She has been an outstanding debater for two years and has served one year as secretary and one year as president of the local chapter of the National Forensic League. ln addition, she has coached class debate teams and has con- Page three tributed much to the development of Speech Club through her work on the social and program committees. Kathleen has been an efficient member of the Student Council and of the Keynote staff and has ably assisted the dean of girls, especially through her leadership during the annual Girls' Conference. ln her junior year, she was elected to Colonnade, girls' service club, an organization which made definite progress during Kathleen's presidency of the group. During the past year Kathleen's classmates have paid tribute to her fine attributes of character by selecting her as the senior girl worthy of receiving the Good Citizenship Medal presented by the local chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution. Cup of1923 Excelling in scholarship, character, leadership, and ser- vice to his school, LeRoy Kolin of the class of 1939 is this year's winner of the Cup of 1923. The award was made at the annual Honors assembly May 26. LeRoy's scholastic achievement is evidenced by the fact that he ranks fourth in his class and by his recent election to the National Honor Society. Genuine interest and ability in music have prompted LeRoy to do outstanding work in that department. ln ad- dition to excelling in regular band and orchestra classes, he has serv- ed as librarian of the bland and as librarian and assistant director of the orchestra. He has also been an active participant in the dance and German band groups. His musical accomplishment won re- cognition this spring when he be- came recipient of the Harriet Pear- son trophy, which is awarded for excellence in violin. To home room, club, and class projects, LeRoy has given marked service. He has been vice president and program committee chairman of his home room and has served as treasurer and as vice president of his class. His efforts to help lead his class successfully have been untiring. As chairman of sev- eral important committees, he has worked efficiently and has contributed materially to the success of such major ac- tivities as class parties and the junior prom. Since LeRoy plans to enter the school of engineering of the University of Michigan, he has been an especially ac- tive member of Mathematics Club and Science Club. His interest in forensics has been demonstrated by a year's work in Speech Club and by two years of activity on class and reserve debate teams. Standing consistently for the highest ideals of young manhood, LeRoy has contributed definitely to Hi-Y, where he has headed the program committee for two years. As a fitting culmination of his activity in the field of journalism, LeRoy has climaxed his work on the Keynote staff by serving as co-editor of this senior edition. ,aaaea eww ay 1939 Evening News Trophy As the senior who for two years has done outstanding work on the Keynote, Victor Harrison, business manager of Sault High's bi-weekly publication, was awarded the Evening News Journalism Trophy for 1939. Victor's duties on the Keynote were numerous. As head of the business staff he helped to select the staff members, took charge of staff meetings, as- signed advertising prospects to stu- dent solicitors, helped train new members, directed the flow of ad- vertising to see that neither too much nor too little was secured for each issue, took ad copy to the printer, proof read the copy, oversaw the circulation of the paper on the day of issue, super- vised the making of collections, and saw to it that accurate records of receipts and expenditures were kept. Of Victor, Mr. G. T. Butler, business adviser, said, These duties were fulfilled cheerfully and capably. Among the seven members of the business staff he consistently led in the securing of advertising, having obtained more than one-third of all the advertising sold during the year. His leadership was evidenced by a smoothly running staff which seldom merited criticism or had to be coaxed or prodded. The Evening News Trophy was presented to the school in 1932 by George A. Osborn, editor and publisher of the Evening News. It is given each year to the student who for two years has done tfhe most for the school newspaper. Last year the plaque was won by Ruth Cullis. D. A. R. Medal For the first time in 'Sault Ste. Marie, the D.A.R. Good Citizenship Award was presented to Kathleen McCormick at the Honors assembly May 26. Miss Leila Rice, regent of the local chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution, made the presentation, an engraved pin. Kathleen was chosen for this honor last fall when the senior class and a faculty committee voted for her as a candidate on the basis of dependability, service, leadership. and patriotism. Outstanding in speech work, Kathleen has competed in speech contests for six years, winning in both local and sub-district competition. This year she won the dis- trict championship in extempore speaking. She has also been a member of class and varsity debate teams. During her years in high school Kathleen has been prominent in many other school affairs. She served as class secretary, Forensic League president, Colonnade president, president and secretary of the library staff, and member of Student Council for ,two years. She was a delegate to the Girls' Conference for two years and led a discussion group both times. Besides her school activities, Kathleen is active in church work. Violin Plaque Judged as the most deserving this year by a committee composed of Earl P. Thomas. music supervisor, and a group of music students, LelRoy Kolin will be the first to have his name engraved on the new Harriet Pearson Violin Trophy. The plaque is to be given to the best violinist who has shown most progress during the year. LeRoy has been an active member of the orchestra for two years and has taken lessons during all that time. He is also one of Mr. Thomas's ablest assistants. Harriet Pearson, donor of the plaque, was graduated from Sault High in 1938. For many years she played the violin. and was concert mistress of the orchestra. She was also leader of the girls' sextet last year. Harriet is now in nurses' training in a Canadian hospital. Mr. Thomas presented the award in behalf of Harriet, who was unable to attend the Honors assembly. Scholarship Award To Harold Ely of the class of 1939, an alumni under- graduate scholarship was awarded 'by the University of Michigan recently. Harold was one of the 97 high school seniors from every part of the state to receive the award. Candidates for the scholarship were chosen by the local U. of M. Club scholarship board, which was composed this year of Alfred Davis, Principal Foss Elwyn, Superin- tendent G. G. Malcolm, and George A. Osborn. Scholar- ship, qualities of character and personality, and financial need were points considered in the selection. After the candidates made formal application to Dean Clarence S. Yoakum of the University of Michigan, each one took a written examination, which, with the informa- tion supplied by the committee, determined who should win the awards. The scholarship has a value of approximately S110 a year and can be retained throughout a four year course provided the candidate maintains a satisfactory scholastic average. Harold plans to enter the U. of M. next fall. 1939 Memorial Two silk flags with standards are to be the gift of the class of 1939 to Sault High School as a class memorial. The banners, the national one and that of the State of Michigan, are to be about the same size as the present ones which the new banners will replace in the auditorium. The seniors chose this gift after considering another electric scoreboard for the gymnasium, a score board for the athletic field, steel backboards for the gym, a recorder, and a nickelodeon. Feast - Girls Only Members of the Bowating Club will again entertain the girl graduates of Sault High and the Loretto Academy at a banquet at the Hotel 'Ojibway on June 8 at 6:30 p.m. 1Miss Josephine Galloway, second vice president of t-he Business and Professional Women's Club and a graduate nurse at St. Luke's hospital in Marquette, will be the main speaker. Kathleen McCormick will answer for the 88 Sault High graduates, and Helen Sullivan, senior class president, will give an address representing the 17 academy seniors.

JOHN JACK DEAN JUNE PERKINS LeROY KOLIN HAROLD ELY For maintaining throughout their high school years the highest scholastic records. five seniors have merited a special honor. Warren St. John leads the class of '39, having earned the highest scholastic average for four years. Second is Jack Dean: third, June Perkinsg fourth, LeRoy Kolin: fifth, Harold Ely. All five of these students have served the school well through Safety Patrol, band, orchestra, class offices, and assistance to teachers. Warren and Jack have followed the academic curriculum, both 'being interested in science. Jack expects to become a research chemist: Warren would like to go to West Point. Photography is Warren's hobby: science, Jack's. Having taken a commercial course, June intends to be an expert stenographer. She thinks typing and shorthand are worthwhile subjects and has made actual use of them this semester by doing stenographic work in the County Page thirteen Welfare office. For LeRoy Latin has proved a most worthwhile sub- ject. Music, of course, is his hobby. When he enters the University of Michigan this September, he will follow an engineering course. Another chemistry enthusiast is Harold Ely, who selects chemistry as his most valuable high school subject and who intends to become a chemist after graduating from college. For numerous reasons the faculty voted this year to do away with naming a valedictorian and a salutatorian as such, the titles being derived from an old custom of having these two persons give addresses on the night of commencement. Since such a custom is no longer observed in 'Sault High, since the faculty believe the choice of the four or five highest is fairer and more elastic, since the number of seniors given scholastic honor can be extended when two persons are tied in percentages, this new system was adopted.

Grads' Master Mind Counsellors of '39 As members of the class of '39 look back over their years of high school. they can remember four years of efficient class management with each accomplishment skill- fully executed. For these they are indebted to Mr. Alfred Davis, class adviser since IQ36. Mr. Davis believed in beginning early on work to be done although he always gave students a free hand in the planning. giving words of advice only when they were necessary to make easier work. His efforts have continually been directed towards a more efficient class government by class members, not by senior home room teachers, and the times that these instructors have been called upon for help have been exceedingly few. Not only as senior adviser is Mr. Davis's influence felt, but as a mem- ber of numerous faculty committees-- guidance, honors, student elections, curriculum study, P.T.A. convention. Outside of the local system he is a member of the Depart- ment of Public Instruction Curriculum Consultant group and is a delegate from Chippewa County to the M.E.A. Mr. Alfred Davis 'l9's adviser holds a B.A. degree from Northern State Teachers' College and an M.A. degree from the University of Michigan. Reading, camping, hiking. golf, and tennis keep him busy outside of school. This summer he will spend in a trip through the Middle West and in vacationing at his cabin at the Hiawatha Club. EDWARD HONKANEN. adviser of room M. senior boys. has coached the class cagers through their second consecu- tive year as class basketball champions. He has just finished a most successful year as school safety director and has served as a member of the honors committee. Outside of school he hunts, fishes. works in his home shop, and referees basketball games. He hopes to study at the University of Michigan this summer. Mr. Honkanen is a graduate of Northern State Teachers' College and has continued study in the U. of M. extension courses. FERN SNYDER, adviser to room l girls, has been inter- ested chiefly in speech and assembly activities. ln her leisure time she studies music and sings in the Presbyterian choir. A member of the Sault Little Theater group, she is also interested in dramatics. Her outdoor activities include hik- ing and tennis. A graduate of Western State Teachers' College, Miss Snyder has also done work at the University of Chicago. She hopes to spend the summer in attending summer school or in travel. AGNES SOLVSBERG, as adviser to room lO girls, has played an important role in the activities of '39. For ex- cellent directing of class plays, for her part in the super- vision of speech work and the Speech Club, the seniors owe her a vote of thanks. Her room has led in all class affairs, in selling tickets and promoting class projects. As hobbies. Miss Solvsberg has a keen interest in the Little Theater, in reading, and in golf.

Page nineteen Promoters of Service Colonnade, a service club which has a membership of not more than twenty senior and ten junior girls, has as its purpose the maintainance and extension of high stan- dards of young womanhood throughout the school and community and the promotion of worthwhile school ac- tivities. On the first day of school Colonnade girls performed their initial service by acting as guides for new pupils com- ing into the school. A week later Hi-Y and Colonnade cooperated in entertaining new members of the student body at a get acquainted party. Games and dancing were enjoyed and refreshments were served.

Character Builders To create, maintain, and extend through the school and community high standards of Christian character, the Hi- Y club was organized by Mr. Davis and a group of boys in April l938. XVith close international relationship as a goal, the Michigan and Canadian Hi-Y clubs and the Colonnade held a joint meeting to organize a Hi-Y auxiliary for the Canadian girls. ln January, I5 members of the Michigan Hi-Y attended a meeting in Canada. Before the meeting, which was held in the Y.M.C.A. building, the members formed teams and bowled. John Gorman. Canadian Hi-Y presi- dent, presided at the meeting for which Vincent Prewer, noted Canadian woodsman and fire ranger was guest speaker. George S. Menkee, now adviser of the Michigan Hi-Y, and Glenn Marin, president of the Michigan group. also gave brief talks. Joe Connell, Canadian Hi-Y mentor, led the combined clttbs in singing, and Johnny Vincent, swing pianist, entertained the group with a few of his hot arrangements. On April 25 the Michigan Hi-Y and Colonnade were joint hosts to the Canadian club and to Canadian girls in- terested in forming an auxiliary. Mr. William Robinson spoke on The Evils of John Barleycornm, and Warren St. John played several solos. After the meeting guests and hosts enjoyed dancing to the music of the Su-Hi Dance Band. Because of the steady increase of theft in school this year, petty thievery was a topic of much discussion at Hi-Y meetings. The club made known its opposition to this vice and did all it cotlld to help stamp it out. The Hi-Y received membership cards and its official charter from the Nationwide Fellowship of Hi-Y clubs. The organization has one meeting each month at which interesting programs are given. One social meeting was a toboganning party with Colonnade girls as guests. Hi-Y officers are: President . .

On April 25 the Hi-Y and Colonnade entertained the Canadian Sault Hi-Y and Girls' Service Club at a short meeting followed by a party. Other activities of the organization inclttded contribtt- tions to the Shoe Fund, arranging a Christmas basket for some needy family, and giving an assembly with Hi-Y boys to help stamp out petty thievery.

The staff is an organized society with .lean Sabatine as president: lirances XVommer, vice president: Mary XVhelan, secretary: Dorothy Waters, treasurer: and Gabri- ella Mastenbrook, sergeanteat-arms. Under the supervision of Librarian Margaret Moles, the group has handled an average daily circulation of 85 books, have helped to keep the library neat, have mended books, and helped with ref- erence work. To observe Book Week last November, a cross word puzzle was devised. Of the 500 entrants in the contest, Harry McCormick was winner and chose a dictionary as a prize. More than 250 new books were added to the library. necessitating more shelf space. Although no attempt was made to purchase all the latest books, many best-sellers, both fiction and non-fiction, were bought. The well- known reference books and classical materials that were purchased will be invaluable to future students. For a school of its size, Sault High has a library with an unusually large collection of fine encyclopedias.

Sketclmers Projects in clay modeling, block printing, life sketching, and water color have been completed by the twenty-five members of the high school art class this year under the direction of the new art supervisor Robert E. Bishop. An exhibition of their work was made, along with art projects done throughout the school system, during the recent P.T.A. convention, Life sketching was an interesting phase of the study and was pursued in two different ways. Members of the class posed for fellow artists in action poses, such as walking and dancing. The class also made trips down town, where they drew rough sketches of persons on the street, then returned to school to complete the work. Opportunity for selfeexpression was offered in several ways. Emotions took form in the artists' imaginary con- ceptions of joy, sorrow, toothache, jealousy, and headache. Among a group of designs that the class made and trans- ferred to cloth, a bed spread designed by Wilda Cochrane was commendable. Clay masks and figures were also created. The holiday season brought the making of linoleum block Christmas cards, many of which resulted in the students' actually using them. Of course everyone .remem- bers the blue and white Suel-li pennants made by the art class. As the year drew to a close, the artists planned field trips to obtain further experience in water color painting. Previous to this time, students had drawn things that could be seen from art room windows. The group also became interested in murals. Much admired was Helmi Peterson's mural depicting the cooperation of all phases of American work and production. A design for an aquatic mural was created by the class, and it was hoped that permission could be secured to paint the mural on the wall of the natatorium. Since the art course was offered fifth period only. these twenty-five, a mere three per cent of the entire student body. could elect the subject. This year in performing fewer extra-curricular services to the school, the class was given more actual art instruction. lt is hoped that more art can be offered to more pupils in the coming year.

The three committee rooms were in constant demand for debate practice and home room committee meetings. Seventy-five persons were fortunate enough to have the library assigned them as a daily study hall. l.ittle publicity is given the three valuable paintings that beautify the library walls, Two of these are original XVhistler etchings. Only two students, June Perkins and Gabriella Masten- brook, were enrolled in library science. These girls did daily assignments in library methods for which they re- ceived credit.

Choir Beginning the year by singing for the parents of Sault High students during American Education Week, the senior choir, directed by Earl P. Thomas and accompanied by Delwyn Elliott, have added many performances to their credit this year. On another occasion the group of 70 singers were presented to the Rotary and Kiwanis clubs who had much praise for their singing. January 20 marked the date of the Winter Carnival concert in which the songsters collaborated with the band in its annual performance given before an audience of some 800 persons. The program included the selections The Prayer , The Sleigh . and Noble Cain's Music of Life . Benefitting directly from this concert, the choir was given a set of collapsible bleachers, which require less than five minutes to set up. Later, a collapsible di- rector's podium was ordered. Much was added to the Easter program by the singing of the blue-robed students, whose presentation of O Morn of Beauty and Beautiful Savior was said to be the best of this year's work. Both Sault High and Collegiate students were thrilled by the choir's performance in the annual exchange pro- gram with the Canadian school. At this time the singers presented probably the most difficult as well as beautiful numbers ever attempted. New selections included negro spirituals, Ole Ark's A Moverin and Joshua Pit de Battle ob Jericho , and Czechoslovakian Dance Song . A large part of the entertainment for the P.T.A. con- vention was provided by the choir who sang at main sessions and other meetings. An interesting feature of this group's work lies in the fact the majority of the selections sung were chosen from the 1938-'39 national contest list. The numbers were rated as very difficult. for class A schools only . Said Mr. Thomas concerning the ability of the chorus: I would not be afraid to enter this group in competition with any in the national music contests. Thanks go to the Fireside Club of the Methodist Church through whose efforts new robes were completed. making a total of 74. Chorusters Ninth and tenth grade choruses, under the direction of Mr. Thomas, have completed an interesting and a profitable year. Composed of about 175 members each, the groups meet each Friday, the freshmen, first period and the sopho- mores, the second. At the beginning of the year the songsters were given musical tests to determine how much musical knowledge they possessed. They also saw a number of musical movies during the year which they enjoyed and which helped them in their work. The main purpose of the choruses. said Mr. Thomas. is not to teach part singing, but merely to provide recrea- tional singing. Students from these two groups have first chance at becoming members of the senior third hour chorus. The carol singers who performed at the Christmas vespers were girls chosen from these two choruses. The groups have no regular sheet music, but sing from song sheets prepared by Mr. Thomas, and from song books. Although the choruses have never performed in public. they were the nucleus of the singing at basketball games during the winter months. They help to foster school spirit by learning all school songs and yells. Page twenty-two .lunior Blue Devils 4 Back row: W. Nelson, P. Lapish. K. Sullivan. S. Oakes. captain: J, Anderson. T.Johnson.

With the purchase of the motion picture projector, the Audio-Visual club was organized this year by Mr. Elwyn to promote all audio-visual work in Sault High School and to interest students in it as a hobby or vocation. The 17 boys have been taught to operate the motion picture equipment, set up the sound system, take care of the machine, splice film, and operate the auditorium drapes and switchboard. Projecting films is a highly specialized work, particu- larly to have the film and sound track run together. The boys have performed a valuable service to the school dur- ing the past year, said Mr. Elwyn, the originator and adviser of the club. Required to take both practical and written tests, the boys received operators' cards after they proved their abili- ty. Anyone may join the club if he shows skill in operating the equipment, dependability in taking care of it, and if two thirds of the members vote for him. Next year another class will be started to teach new recruits. Mr. Elwyn hopes to buy a Bell-I-Iowe motion picture camera soon and to teach the boys how to run it. Then a complete moving picture record of the school from regis- tration to graduation may be kept. At their meetings every Monday, work is assigned for the week. discussions are held on film magazines, and the technique of taking moving pictures is studied. Started for noon hour recreation, the noon movies were previewed, advertised, and chosen by the club. The five committees of the club are: Page fifteen Program-plans a program for each meeting.

Legislators Under the advisership of Miss Ruth Haddock, the Stu- dent Council has again completed a year of service, proving its worth as one of Sault High's most valuable organiza- tions. Started in l9Z7 for the purpose of giving students a part in school government and of developing in them qualities of initiative and responsibility, the Council has. since then, played a major role in school life. The organization began the year with an assembly at which officers were installed: President, Ennis Steffensg vice president, John Tremontg secretary, Shirley Atkins: assistant secretary, Elizabeth Bales: treasurer, Jean Barclay, sergeant-at-arms, Patrick Raffaele. One of the many regulation duties of the Council is the granting of projects, charters, and constitutions, some of which are ushering at assemblies, taken care of by room 10: cleaning up of school grounds, room 7: assisting teach- ers in the correction of papers and in dittoing. room 123 carrying announcements, room 31 Lost and Found, room 2. Before the Upper Peninsula district tournament at Ish- peming. the Student Council put on one of the best pep assemblies of the year, a send-off that gave the Blue Devils added incentive for defeating an old rival, the lshpeming Hematites. Another service of the Council was the provision of much-needed check room coat racks and hangers to be used at all parties given in the gym. A concerted drive against stealing and cheating in school was part of this group's work this year, a phase of which was taking custody of the master locker key and the ap- pointing of Council members to check lockers, morning, noon, and after school. ln an effort to further friendlier relations between Am- erican and Canadian students, the Student Council gave a party for the Canadian governing group. Members also sponsored two all-school activity ticket parties, one at Halloween time. the other. a hillbilly dance on April 28. Page sixteen Guardians of Safety For the second successive year the Safety Patrol went on duty the first of school last fall. The twenty-eight patrolmen and officers who comprised the patrol main- tained their posts throughout all kinds of weather in carrying out the aim of the patrol. to develop a safety consciousness in crossing Streets which will enable students to realize dangerous siutations and to act toward them accordingly. The organization covered thirteen posts dur- ing five daily patrol periods, each period being supervised by a lieutenant. With the arrival of heavy snows and cold weather the middle of December, the group suspended active operation. However, as soon as the weather per- mitted in the latter part of March, they again went on active duty and continued until the closing of school in June. The judicial branch of the patrol, the traffic court. also resumed its functions in the fall. The student judge, Richard Forbes, presided with a student jury of six, which returned the verdicts. The defendants and the patrol were represented b ytheir respective counsels. All students found guilty of violating the safety code were sentenced to the traffic school, where they had to study safety material pertaining to their particular type of violation. ln addition to their regular functions, the patrol assisted during the school election and various other school activi- ties. Mr. Honkanen, the safety adviser, supervised the patrol. ln the safety assembly of May 5, the patrol was hon- ored with the award of a safety banner, achieved by send- ing monthly reports of the patrols activities to its spon- sers, the Michigan A.A.A. At this time also, various members of patrol were presented service bars for their outstanding work done during the year. In conjunction with the awarding of the banner the school was presented a bronze safety plaque. This plaque was emblematic of the commendatory manner in which various phases of safety work were conducted in the high school throughout the past year, such as safety bulletins and films, the safe driving course, and the safety court as well as the activities of the patrol within Chippewa County. Members of the patrol are: Captain-John A. Dean. Lieutenants-J. Harold Ely and John Matheson. Sergeants-G. Venious, J. Paivinen, R. Hayward, J. Bah- ington, R. Mansfield, C. VanDyke, P. Perry, and P. Giana- kura. Patrolmen-J. Sylvester, L. Campbell, K. Hope, H. Mc- Cormick, J. Anderson, P. Raffaele, P. Strickland, F. Craft, B. Bellling, C. Levin, B. Doll, C. Thomsen, R. Mr-Donald, P. Wickman, K. Sullivan, W. Walker, J. Brownell, J, Traige, E. Campbell, T. Leash, and Bruce Campbell. Word Carvers Radio study has been uppermost in the minds of all members of the Speech Club, the motto for which is: Speak clearly if you speak at all: carve every word before you let it fall. At the beginning of the year members of the club gave a short radio skit. using various sound effects. At the following meeting club initiates were required to read a selection over the microphone as an examination for mem- bership. Throughout the year the club has been engaged in the study of parliamentary procedure, in correcting speech de' fects brought out by the mike , and in having programs about the uses of radio. ln one of the most interesting programs Mr. Eckhardt, radio operator for the Pennsylf vania Central Airlines, spoke concerning his work. He explained the duties of a radio operator and how radio is used to bring airplanes safely in to the field by the giving of weather reports and positions. Mrs. Gardner Raymond. formerly Jean Maclaachlan, told of her work in dramatics, and Miss Haddock reported on a play she had recently seen. Shadow pictures were made by Shirley Atkins and John Stabile for the Christmas program. Along with the pic- tures and appropriate music, members of the club told the story of the Nativity. This program was presented for several outside organizations as well. The Speech Club was well represented in various dram- atic and forensic activities of the school. Minor accomplish- ments of the group included entertaining visiting debaters and speech contestants and sponsoring for the student body the Little Theater play Flood Control .

Top Notcbers Unusual interest was shown in forensics this year, and a record number of students appeared in the local declam- ation elimination contest. Forty freshmen and sophomores memorized noteworthy speeches and interpreted them for the judges. From this number Lorraine Nason, John Ramsey, Cora O'Connor, Patricia McCormick, and Doris June 'Campbell were chosen to participate in the local speech contest. Doris June Campbell was the winner of this contest and represented Sault High in the sub-district contest at Newberry. Because of excellent expression and interpre- tation of the declamation Flight from Bagdadn, Doris June was again chosen winner by the single critic judge, Professor Gunther Meyland of Northern State Teachers College. In the district contest at Manistique she competed with five other sub-district winners and was awarded second place. Roy Ingals of Escanaba placed first. John Babington and Robert Walker were orators chosen to appear in the local elimination competition. In a close contest John placed first with his original oration The Jew . At Newberry he was awarded third place in the sub-district meet. ln the extempore division Kathleen McCormick won the local contest over Bruce Campbell with her speech on the Dewey-ll-lines trial. Speaking on the topic Is Hitler a Statesman? in the sub-district contest. she again won. At the Manistique district contest she spoke on A'What of Europe's Jews and for the third consecutive time she was named winner. In carrying ofif top honors for Sault High, Kathleen brought back the championship banner given by the University of Michigan. This is the second banner for extempore the school has won. More interest was shown in debate this year also. For the Hirst time in several years separate affirmative and neg- ative teams were formed. Winifred Telgenhoff, Robert Walker, and Gerald Bliss composed the affirmative: and Kathleen McCormick, Robert Buhro, and Harry McCor- mick made up the negative team. An alternate negative trio composed of senior boys, James Sylvester, LeRoy Kolin, and Jack Hunt was also formed. Debating the question of the Anglo-American alliance, the affirmative team lost to Newberry and Maniistique: the negative won over Ishpeming and lost to Menominee. Several debates with Collegiate Institute of Sault. Ontario were arranged. Page seventeen fazzafzaamyzzas Social Outstanding among the programs of the Hiawatha His- tory Club this year were two talks, given by Miss Frances Rudell and Dr. John VerStraate, and two radio skits. Miss Rudell told of her travels in Germany and ex- pressed her views on political and economic conditions in that country. Reverend VerStraate presented a stirring and stimulating address on the movements of peace, tracing them from centuries ago to the present. The radio plays, Braddock's Defeat and Suffragettes were given by members of the club under the direction of James Sylvester and John Babington. Both proved inter- esting and of excellent historical value. On February 17 the club supervised a patriotic assem- bly commemorating the birthdays of Abraham Lincoln and George Washington. Lieutenant Colonel Hayes Kroner, who had just co-me to Fort Brady from England, was guest speaker. Beatrice Cowen and Bruce Campbell, accompanied by Cynthia Hotton, sang solos. Projects for making money were the bookstore and a mixer. Supplying students with paper, pencils, and other necessities and second hand books to English students proved a helpful means for filling the treasury. The pro- ceeds from these activities are to be used for chartering a bus in which club members will journey to Mackinac Is- land and Upper Tahquamenon Falls.

The organization has its official charter from the Na- tional American Institute of Science and Engineering Clubs, a society of ten thousand American high school pupils. This society issued pins and membership cards to the Atom Crackers. Activities of the club have included journeys to the Union Carbide Company, the paper mill and steel plant in Sault, Ontario, and other industrial corporations in this locality.

Dean Agricultural 1 Of all the organizations in Sault High one of the busiest and most progressive is the Agriculture Club, which is under the supervision of Lyle B. Abel and which is affili- ated with the state and national Future Farmers of Amer-- ica. One of the main purposes of the organization is to develop more competent, aggressive, rural agricultural leadership. That the club members go places is proved by the number of trips they took in the past year. As recently as May 4 and 5 they journeyed to Lansing to the Future Farmers convention held there, nor was this the first time during the school year that they had travelled to lower Michigan. In December a number of the boys attended a convention in Marquette. As they do every year, members participated in the judging contest at Chatham. A num- ber have attended agricultural meetings at Rudyard and Pickford, holding one initiation at Rudyard. The boys also held a judging contest here with Pickford and Rud- yard participating. At present the F.F.A. group is building a hot house on the furnace room roof. They have raised baby chicks this year and have built a battery brooder for the chicks. Other projects included in their program were conducting a lunch stand at the County Fair last September and or- ganizing a basketball and a softball team. -Officers are: president, Clayton Paymentg vice president, Edwin Kinneyg secretary, Russell Hoornstrag treasurer, Bob Crawford: reporter, William Dickisong sergeant-at- arms, Byron Osborn. Mathematical Q Visiting the Coast Guard cutter, the Ossipee and study- ing its mathematical devices was one of the many interest- ing things done by the Mathematics Club during the year. Composed of nine memlbers, the club studied the slide rule and worked problems in trigonometry at their meet- ings. Members enjoyed a Christmas party in room 25 and had a picnic this spring. To raise money for their pic- ture in this edition of the Keynote, the organization held a candy sale in 'March.

Band Again the Sault High band under the direction of Earl 17. Thomas has gone through a successful season both mus- ically and financially. The organization has performed more in public than in any other year since Mr. Thomass arrival here, Starting out the football season. the band marched on the field before the opening game in new military uni- iforms. Throughout the fall braving cold, snow, and wind, the musicians cheered the gridders on to victory during the game and at the half. With the arrival of basketball. the band was again there at every home game in full uniform and with a repertoire of popular arrangements of familiar tunes and all the well- known college songs and marches. Featured during the season was the singing of college songs by the ninth and tenth grade choruses and the playing of Alexander's Rag- time Bandu and Darktown Strutters' Ball . A greater part of the band journeyed to Newberry in buses and cars, playing and cheering the Blue Devils to victory. At the beginning of the concert season on January 20 the band presented an outstanding program which included the familiar overture to A'William Tell by Rossini: the difficult cornet solo Willow Echoes played by Joe Celestino: The Swiss Boy . a number for clarinet played Page twenty-three by Jack Hunt: and numerous other selections. The S750 which ticket sales and program ads brought in was used to pay partially for the new bass tuba and for choir bleach- ers. 'AThe Chimes of Normandy , presented on February 24 by Collegiate -Institute as its annual exchange program, played before an almost capacity audience. Canadian guests. members of the cast, and the Sault High student body were entertained in the gym after the performance. The oper- etta not only was an excellent musical achievement for the Canadian school, but netted the S.H.S. music department 35130. Journeying to Canada on April 21 to return this ex- change, the Sault High band and choir members presented many musical novelties in addition to the regular program. These included a cornet solo Elena by Cecil MacNamara, The Swiss Boy in duet form by Jack Hunt and Bob Smith, A'The Palms played by Bob Bohenna, and Loves Old Sweet Song by Carl Levin. The novelty attraction of the evening, however, was The Cricket and the Bull Frog with Doris Peterson playing the piccolo and LeRoy Kolin the tuba. A large number of Sault High students attended the concert. The band played a large part in the P.T.A. convention held recently, appearing several times during the three-day tConIi'nued on Page 241 ef Sofia Shain , , KK Violins: Cochrane, E.

Not only for these two major events but for the P.T.A. state convention, the orchestra furnished music. Included in the program for the convention was Venetian Carnival overture and other excellent numbers. This year Mr. Thomas has worked to better this organ- ization. Bass and woodwind sections were cut down to present a more balanced group. The string sections were built up with elementary instruction starting in the grades and the Junior High. New music was ordered, modern arrangements of familiar classics, music that was not too difficult to play, yet advanced enough to demand technical skill and interpretation. Many new members will move up from the Junior High orchestra next year, while few present members will be lost by graduation. Thus the future looks bright for the organization. Student officers were: LeRoy Kolin, student director, Scott Hunsberger. 'Ralph McCormick, LeRoy Kolin, librar- ians: Jean Tuxworth, accompanist. Sextet To fill the need for a small group to furnish music at banquets and programs for which an orchestra or a band would be inconvenient, Mr. Thomas organized an ensemble. Members of the group are: Doris Peterson, Jack Hunt. Betty Socia, Avice Rye. Jack McLean. Bob Smith, and Mr. Thomas. Probably more than any other group in the music department this one has given service, playing for practically every civic organization in the city. Deutsclilanders Spanish and German tunes mixed with a dialog of jokes from the players make up The Hungry Five , a German band, started in April by Mr. Thomas. Composed of two clarinets, a bass horn, cornet, and trombone, 'iThe Hungry Five , under the leadership of Jack Hunt, has played for the Methodist Music Pageant. at the Newberry Hi-Y conference. and at a song assembly. Bob Smith, John Paivinen, LeRoy Kolin, and Ralph Mc- Cormick are the other members of the band. They also helped to advertise the all-school party 'by staging a parade in the halls, The Hungry Five play both German and Spanish music to give variety. If in Spain, they have a Spanish dialog: in Germany they add German jokes. Practice for the band is every Saturday afternoon in the music roorm. The boys have developed the art of working together and have developed leadership and practice in public per- formance. Band fContinued from Page Z3j program. Among other performances the musicians played at a reserve-Collegiate game in Canada, the Winter Carni- val parade, football pep demonstrations, the annual 4-H Club parade, the installation of Bicycle Club officers. A new band feature this year was the drum majoring class in which girls were taught to march and twirl a baton. Three girls, Elizabeth Mathison, Inez Klein, and Wilda Bowerman, advanced rapidly enough to exhibit their skill in a special number on the concert program. Student officers were: Jack Hunt, student directorg li- brarians, LeRoy Kolin, Scott Hunsberger. and Ralph Mc- Cormick.

Although they did not have a per- fect number of victories, the Devils showed that the Sault was on the victory trail again. The squad was well on the better side of the .500 mark, winning four games out of seven. Most of the Devils' wins were on their own soil, but on foreign fields they were unable to cross the oppon- ents' goal line. Coach Herman Cranes eleven had one of the hardest driving walls in many a year. The good work of Tony Andary, Max Klein, and John Toland-tackles: Joe Hill, Al Aube, Earl Bye-guards: and Ernie Robinson, Ray Cremer, and Bob Reilly-ends-made it possible to out- charge, outfight, and overpower all opponents with the exception of the powerful Escanaba eleven. The Crane machine was molded into a team featuring hard driving, running plays, off centered, with one of the best passing attacks in the Upper Peninsula. Although outweighed by most of the opposing teams, the Blue Devils' determination to win overshadowed this handicap. Those from the '38 squad who will be missing next fall will be Tony Andary, Max Klein, Earl Bye, Ray Cremer, Bob Reilly, James Alford, John Tremont, Law- rence Brownlee. Filling the shoes of the graduating letter- men will be John Toland, Dave and Harvard McDowell. Ludlow Bailey, Patrick Raffaele, Joe Hill, Ernie Robinson, Melvin Cryderman. During the season the Blue Devils scored 70 points to their opponents' 54. Next season for the first time in a number of years the Blue Devils will encounter St. Joseph of Escanaba. A night game with Alpena will also be a novelty of the l939 grid year. Page twenty-five Varsity Games MARQUETTE-First game of the season resulting in a 6-0 defeat for the Blue Devils. Even so, the Devils showed determination to go places. ISHPEMING-Pans saw their team in action for the first time and were rewarded, for the result was: Sault, 145 Ishpeming, 2. 'The Devils kept their opponents on the run by mixing running plays with passes. NEWBERRY-Determined to keep the Little Brown Jug in their possession, the Sault defeated Newberry 12-6. MUNISING-Although it was a hard-fought battle, the Sault had the small end of a 6-O score, The result was hard to explain because the Sault made 14 first downs to Munising's two. Passes filled the air as Reilly, aided by Alford's passing, won a berth on the U.P. football squad. ESCANABA-A crushing defeat at the hands of the Eskymo giants. The score 34-0. The Sault's only hope died as they lost the ball on downs after taking it from their own 15-yard line to Escanaba's 10-yeard one. MANISTIQUE-A snowstorm greeted the team who took an early lead when Andary recovered a fumble and set the stage for a first down. The Blue Devils took keen delight in piling up a 19-O score. ALPENA-The Blue Devils wound up the season by smothering Alpena 25--0. Good blocking on the part of the Sault forward wall made the use of off-tackle plays successful, lt is a Crane distinction to win the final game of the season.

There amid flowering apple trees and gray stone walls prom goers danced away another memorable J-Hop. From the steps of a medieval castle Jack McCarron's orchestra, with Florence Sabatine as soloist, played, While the light from antique lanterns played over colorful dresses and white flannels. Punch was served from a lattice work booth. Financially and socially this prom was a success. Ex-V penses were reduced to 35180 by the S125 taken in for tickets. Two hundred twenty-five couples and 150 spec- tators attended. General chairman was Jack Hunt, with LeRoy Kolin, Alma LaJoice, Warren St. John, Avice Rye, and Jack Dean serving as other chairmen. To make this year's J-Hop different, the juniors are at work on an under-sea motif. Cheese cloth of greens and blues will hang from the track and on the walls to pro- vide a setting for fantastic sea animals and plants now being created in the S club room, From an old ship- wreck the orchestra, which the committee hopes will be either George or Frank Corsi's, will play. and punch is to be served from a huge sea shell. The ceiling will be hung with colored cheese cloth to resemble waves and a giant Octupus will clutch balloons. Old sea chests, seaweed, and a diving bell will add to the atmosphere. Programs for the party will carry out the nautical idea, Committee chairmen are: decorations, John Babingtonp orchestra, chaperons, programs, Betty Finlayson, tickets, Peter Gianakurag properties, Carl Leving refreshments, Jean Barclay: patrol, Ernest Robinson.

T -1 SINCE 1930 2- Bits About Track As this is written, Sault High's squad of track men has taken part in four meets. leaving two interscholastic meets and various intramural ones yet to be held. The relay team Went to Escanaba on -May 30 to take part in the Memorial Day races. On June 3, the tri- county meet will be held here. The juniors were victorious in the indoor interclass track meet. At Manistique on May 12, the varsity placed second, while the B team was winning second place in the Little Six meet here. On May 20 at Negaunee, the Sault squad placed sixth. Feature of the meet was the great running of Ernest Robinson, Sault, who won the 440-yard dash in 57 seconds. And Golf Having retained the Feetham Trophy for another year. the varsity golfers. Jim Odam, Bob McPherson, Boib Tardiff, and Paul St. Pierre entered the Upper Peninsula tournament at Manistique on May 27. '39 Nightmare With a clatter and a bang, an old model T overflowing with A. and P. salesmen, hillbillies, and Popeye chugged down the street to announce to the world that senior un- dress-up day had come. Old fashioned girls. Japs, cow- girls, gypsies. sleepwalkers, Dutch girls, and negroes wan- dered up and down the halls interspersed with sailors, bums, a Ku Klux Klansman, a butterfly, Captain Kid. Red Riding Hood, and a Scotch maid. Pearl Reich rushed around as the Little King. while Lewis Chamberlain Read dodged among the many eques- trians to avoid Russell Hitler LaPointe. Harold Green created a sensation with his street cleaner's outfit and Delwyn Elliott was a dear old lady, knittin' and all. After the riotous grand march at the mixer, Mr. Morgan announced the prizes, but seniors only got their crisp dollar bills after kissing Coach Altenhof. Shirley Atkins planted a kiss on his cheek to get the prize for the prettiest costume. The Gold Dust Twins left black smudges for getting first prize for the most original outfit and Al- phonse LeLievre kissed the dollar when he got second prize. The three mountain boys, the Bradys and Charles Brown, woke from their lethargy to win the comical award, and the worst prize went to Harold Snowdon a glorified girl. Congratulations 11 and gQf' ?

As freshmen we were of little repute: There's nothing of note to relateg No officers bound us, no motto we had, A truly unorganized state. We adopted our motto in the year '36, As sophomores brave and tall: With very deep thought we decided to choose United we stand, divided we fall . The pert little primrose became our class flower, Blue and gold were our colors so gay: Mr, Davis began his career as our guide, To stand by and show us the way. U As class president we chose Warren St. John. His assistant, the able Jack Dean: Kathleen McCormick, to handle the pen, LeRoy Kolin. our treasurer keen. Our junior year soon followed along, New officers came in timeg Our president was the worthy .lack Hunt, A leader strong and fine. Congratulations! I xx .

Unusual, exciting--these words might describe 'Night ol' Jantlary I6th given December I-Z by the junior and senior classes. Unusual it was because in this mystery-melodrama, in which Karen Andre was tried for the murder of her employ- er Bjorn Ifaulkner, the -jury was stlmmoned from the atld- ience, was sworn in, and sat in the jury box on the stage dur- ing the entire play. Nor at the close of a tt'ial packed with unexpected events and thrills did anyone, not even the director, know what verdict the jurors would bring back. The cast memorized two endings for the play, one for the verdict oi' Guilty and another for the verdict Not guilty . Iiveryone remembers how on the first night of the drama Karen Andre was found not guilty, while on the second night the jury found her The cast: guilty.

On that day the members of Mr. Price's American Problems classes ousted the regular city and county officials and took over the administration of their duties. The positions which the students held were de- termined by their respective standings on the civil service examination which was written the latter part of April. This is an annual project of the problems classes made possible through the cooperation of the city and county officials. It enables the student to become better acquainted with their government, the officials who administer it, and the method and duties connected with its administration. City Officials--Manager-John A.

Eleven issues, on the average of one every two weeks and the senior edition, were published by the Keynote staff this year. Improvements in the paper were a new nameplate, a changed editorial page, and more Cuts. Roger Herrington made a head suggestive of the Sault and the North, as well as other cartoons and sketches for the paper. Douible columns were reversed on the editorial page and more interesting type and titles were used. Questionnaires sent to the students were filed and used for feature story material. The staff cooperated in the campaign against stealing with editorials and letters in the open forum. Receiving 700 out of IOOO points, this year's Keynote got a First Class rating from the National Scholastic Press Association of the University of Minnesota. This was the greatest number of points ever received, 20 more than last year's edition and 55 more than two years ago. The First Class rating is second only to the All-American which is awarded to superior newspapers. The N.S.P.A. service also gave criticisms that will be used to improve the Key- note.
