On September 5, 1938 the seme members of the class returned to compose the class of mighty Seniors for'38- â˘39. These nineteen members worked faithfully and with much more determination than In the proceeding years. The seniors chose Mr. Haberman of Friend to take their pictures. He gave some of the members of the class a. free theater party and others a pocket mirror with their photograph on the back. Mr. Haberman also took the pictures for this annual free of charge. The civics class this year consisted only of Sen- iors so the class went to Osceola to hear a court sess- ion. Everyone found it to be very interesting and educational. The class chose the motto: We have bay; the oc an lies before up. The claps teal blue and peach and the class flower, Hill rose. The Seniors enjoyed their sneak day in Lincoln, May 2.

To-nite being restless and weary 'lth the cares of the dey I longed for a change of scene and time. So closing my eyes and relaxing I fell asleep. In ray dream I visualized what our class was doing in 1949. - t-Jt- - {SCHOOL PAYS) A village scene appears. I see a church. The bells are ringing. It is Sunday Morning. The People are coming to the service. I see the minister, a fine looking nan, and by his side walks hie.wife. Her free is turned away, but I can see it Is someone we know. The congregation greet them cordially. They are much loved. Now she turns. I see her face. It is Betty Leigh McMcokln. She looks very haopy and eoorars to be an ideal minister's wife. And now the scene grows strange. An orchestra is seated awaiting the signal to play, but there is not a sound. Upon the blackboard are figures and mysterious letters. Ah, I see a microphone. It i3 the broaderst- lng room of a radio strtlon. A voice saya, Quiot, We're on the air . The leader introduces a delightful saxophone solo into the mist of selection. I sec him clearly. It Is Joromo Vincentc (Vincent Messina), the radio favorite of the next decade. The mists blot out the scene, and when they clear away, the ground is covered with ice end snow. The wind walls through the tall sentinel pines. A figure rides toward me. Ho i'err3 a stunning uniform. He stops his horse end rends a 3ign offering many thousrnd dollars reward for the capture of a murderer rt large in the Canrdlan forest. Ho smiles rnd says, The boun- ties always get their man. He is one of those romrnâ tic heroes, a Northwest Mounted Policeman. As ho rides nearer, I recognize him. It is Neil Brigham. more handetfne than ever. I sec we rrc in the city. It is the interior of a large public building, the library. Seated at her desk is the reference librarian, Put she is not doing re- search work for myone now. Sh is reading the latest novel and lotting those who search for information She is our old friend, Done. Watkins. Trust h'r to find a way of reading all the nev books as soon re they come out. Again we have r large room, empty but for two peo- ple and a grmd piano. A small boy vrith eticky flneers and a look of ri:ony on his face 13 trying to play exer- cise Number 13, end his teacher, grlttln- her teeth to keep from spanking him, is determinedly counting one, two, three, one, tve, three, as woodcnly as a metron- ome.

Its none other than Arlene KoBeth. Silo telle me tha+- Doc- tor Abbott is engaged in extracting a tooth, and I'11 have to v'ait. Finding time too precious I hurry along.

Moneybags as private maid to their nineteen year old daughter. I always knew that the parts she played in the High school plays would merit her a Job like that. Again x find myself in different surroundings. It is in u small country school. The teacher is having third grade arltlinetic class. She certainly under- stands children. It is Delora.s Crolsa.nt. She says she is goingâ to devote her life to the betterment of rural schools. You might know sho'd do something like that. She always was willing to out herself out for others. The scene ch. ngos. I see a young man on a stream- line tract or . Yes, we all know i ho he is, he is Marlin Kumpf, the master fame: of this prosperous rectlon of the country. Ho, r strange ! I see a room in great disorder n.nd a m;ân down on all fours, looking at the rug through a magnifying glass. In one Docket is a notebook labeled Clues. In the other nocâ-.et is a pair of handcuffs. He rets very peculiar. Now he rises. He turns toward me- and I recognize him. It is Donald Proil. This is the result of the mystery stories he was aXwrys read- ing. He is now a detective. Ap I dream along I find myself in Bernt's Cafe. It certainly hng grown rnd who is the head welter but Louis Flco.lor-. That's the result of being n soda-Jerk- or during HTe high school 'aye. The scene shifts to Madison Sauarc Garden. It's a knock-out, he's done it again. What a fight 1 What a man i The ââeferee waves the boxer's hand into the air. It's oimmy Rry ! Listen to the crowd cheer for the new World's champion boxer. Now I am in an art gallery. On the wall hangs a beautiful scene of a sunset in magnificent colors.

I find myself at the s teps of a small hotel in David City. As I enter the lobby, I find the manager Agnes Sable busily looking over some reports. She in- forms me tKet business Is picking up and I know It is her summer solrit in David City that must have taken effect. I hear voices. They are saying, I've got a hun- dred who'll give me a 125. Standing waving his arms about In a peculiar manner I see Robert Ingalls. He Is still working In a sale barn, but he is no longer Just a helper. He is the auctioneer. I an now entering a small cottage. A woman Is sitting at a sewing machine. She is making a dress for her five year old daughter. It Is Margaret Gondrlnger. Margaret told us she wouldn't be surprised if she were married in less than ten years, and I guess she was right. I am now in the streets of Columbus. As I enter Scott's five and ten cent store I see Cariotta Carroll behind a candy counter. I'll bet she doesn't go on a candy diet like she used to when she was a senior In high school. _ â Class Prophet. CLASS WILL We the class of 1939 of Shelby High School, aged 12 years, of sound-mind and memory, having duly con- sidered uncertainties of further union and the un- erring certainty of separation, do make and establish this last will and testament. First: 'l.Te intrust our exeoutors, the faculty, to conduct our funeral services with pomp and ceremony befitting the dignity of the class, to pay all our funeral expenses from the revenues of est te es soon after our graduation as is practicable. The seniors on their departure leave to the Freshmen their boldness. It took us a long time to develop this and we a e hoping you v-ill use it to an advantage. leave to the Sophomores our dignity. Of course you will have to improve this because it is very mature. We give to the Juniors our sponser, Miss Moon, we know you â ill be pleased and â ,e hope she will plan as many good times for you as she did for us. ---------------------[SCHOOL DAYS) ---------------------- To the sober, Betty Brigham and Cariotta Carroll bequeath their giggles. To Malyn Deturk, Maxine Kosch wills her angelic ways. (We;ve heard he could use them.) Dena Watkins ÂŤills her whispering and gum chewing to Rosella Benda. (Here's hoping you donât have to stay in as many times as! Dona did.) To Evelyn Cable, Agnes gives her carload of noisy boys, so she will have an excuse to drive to school ⢠next year. ÂŤ To the loud and boastful, Bertha Benda wills her quiet â ays. To Melvin McGlrnpsey, Louis Nicolas gives his sex appeal. (Now maybe Melvin can win that Sophomore girl he was making eyes at.) To the music club, Vincent Messing leaves his musical ability. To the lonely hearts bureau, Neil Brigham wills Violet. Jimmy Roy loaves his ability to make touchdowns to the Shelby Football Team. Derold Abbott wills his dancing ability to Earl and Burl Graff, so they can keep the pace of Bess and Lois. Betty McMeekin wills h --r ability to write essays to Bess Taddlken so she can write better letters to Earl. To the timid, Margaret Gondrlnger â ills her happy go-lucky 'ays. To the artists, Don Prell gives his drawing ability. To the typing class, Mary Rose Kosch leaves her ability to type with speed end feâ errors. (We hope they use it.) To the bashful, Bob Ingalls gives his ability to talk. To the cranky, Deloras Croistnt wills her goodâ . naturedness. To the ninth period people, Marlin leaves-his ab- ility to come to school tardy and not have to stay in. To the dependent, Arlene McBeth leaves her in- dependence. In Witness Thereof, we the class of '59, to this our last âââill and testament, have set ouF hand and- seal this eighteenth day of May, in the year of our Lord, 1939.

They budget the money paid by the taxpayer of District 32 and by the high school tuition students, so that we may have a building that is warm and in good repair, and so that we may have textbooks and equipment with which to work. During the past year they found It possible to in- stall new showers for both the boys and.the girls, to seed the football field, to Install new foot lights in the auditorium, and to install a stoker. We are grateful to the taxpayers for furnishing the where-with-all and to the board of education for the time and effort they donate to our school. We, the Seniors, hope that each child in school will show his appreciation by taking excellent care of the school property which is given Into his keeping during the year, and by obeying any rules which might aid In keep- ing up the good appearance of the building and grounds. The student council was organized In the fall of 1937. The council represents the student population and includes representatives from the closes and act- ivity groups. It takes an active part In determining student policy and regulates lnterclnss friction of any kind. It also permits students to hrve a voice in the administration of their activities. Another of its purposes is to safeguard funds of the various organiza- tions and clubs. All students and faculty members are considered members. The president, vice president and secretary are elected at large by ballot. Nominations are made by a STUDENT COUNCIL nominating committee appointed by the puperintendent or sponsor. The treasurer is an appointive office. Re- presentatives are elected from their classes and organ- izations . The council acted as sponsors of the conference ex change programs, student activity tickets, ninth grade initiation and awarding of letters in the various acti- vities during the past year. At the beginning of schocf. , the Junior class of 1938â39 consisted of thirty-nine members. Dui ing the year Patty Dornan moved to California. Two new members were added to our class in the course of the school year. Donna Thelen moved from Osceola and entered the first semester. Roland White entered the second semes- ter. We Juniors feci that we have one of the record classes of Juniors In the history of Shelby High School In athletics vie have some exceptionally yood talent in football, basket' all and track. The Junior class was allowed four parties as were all other classes. These parties proved very entertaininr; and were highly at- tended. The Junior class play was considered a record breaker with two most talented Juniors in the leading roles. The Junior-Senior banquet wa3 held on May 4. In the declamatory contest first place in each each division was given to âjuniors. We had four .juniors narticipating in the one act play which won the state contest. he Juniors are well represented in both boysâ end girls' ;lee clubs, band and orchestra. The class consists oi very studious people who from time to time have captured the highest grades in the classes which both Juniors and Seniors attend. After a com- plete summary of the Junior class v e feel that vie sur- pass or at least equal any other class in Shelby High School.

The total number of students of twenty-nine was ngpln made thirty by the entrance of a oupil whom most of us had known before, Phyllis Foe- bender. Phyllis had attended fgrn.de school In Shelby. As the school year neared its close, the total number of freshmen was reduced to twenty-eight due to the fact that two other students moved away. Phyllis Dornan moved to California, and Frankie Thatcher moved to Beatrice. The Freshman class docs not have a. choice of sub- jects, so all are taking Algebra, Junior Business, Agriculture a.nd English. They also carry several activities such as Junior Chorus, Dra.matics, and Girls' and Boys' Physical Education. The Freshmen competed In the Interclass activity contest with moderate success. In future years we pre- dict the freshmen win be a very successful class. During the year many successful and entertaining parties were enjoyed by the freshmen. The Freshmen have enjoyed learning new things In their high school life so far, a.nd hope to continue to do so. âVirginia Ingalls SEVENTH AND EIGHTH GRADES The seventh and eighth grades began the year with twenty-five members.

There are a great number of good things to be acquired through active participation in school athletics The most important of these benefits is the physi- cal and mental development. A sound body and a healthy mind are the first steps to e successful and happy life. The competitive spirit developed through the inter-school contests could be valued in terms of dollars and cents,. The success of the American economic system depends entirely upon competition. No other thing will develop sportsmanship in a young body in such a fine way. Athletes must learn to give as well as to taJkc. Through athletics one learns to resoect tho opinions of others without surrendering bis own privileges. Athletics tefich cooperation, leadership, and self- reliance. The success of the team depends upon the help of each player. Lack; of cooperation leads to com- plete failure of the entire team. A certain amount of leadership comes from being captain, quarterback or from some other important position. ..Individual events and performances teach the value of self-reliance to the athlete. He learns to depend upon himself and knows that no one will do the Job for him. ⢠⢠As a mea.ns of advertising the school, athletics have no equal. Schools n.re Judged from their progress in athletics and much prestige is awarded to the school with a fine football or basketball team. -â˘-â˘Roland White. {SCHOOL DAYS} BASKETBALL Top Row: Leon Nicolas, Milton Gabriel, Wayne DeTurk, Paul Kuhnel, Roland White, Tommy Carter, Wallace Huddleston. 2nd Row: Edward Richter, Robert Ingalls, Harry FI11- inger, Derold Abbott, Marlin Kumpf, Coach Fred Shestak. 3rd Row: John Krumbach, Ray Gabriel, Burl Graff, Earl Graff, Louis Nicolas, Bob Davis.

Placing second in the Goldenrod Conference Shelby won 6 games, tied 1, and lost only 2, piling ur a total of 159 points to their opponents 45. ,The Reason opened with Shelby defeating David City and after a tough fight, dropping the Burg. The third game, with. Clarks, was clayed in practically a gale; Snelty s passes wouldn:t work, and though their running attaCK continually threatened, the 60 minutes ended and the score wks deadlocked, C-0. Shelby traveled some 130 mines to.receive a trouncing from Greeley; the boys returned hottfe' and played what was probably their best game, to drop Ulysses by 3 touchdowns. Last yearâs defeat rankling in their souls, Shelby handed their traditional rivals, the Osceola Bulldogs, a grand w whipping, Šarching home with a 26-0 victory under their belts. That victory slid them into a first place tie in the Cchference with Silver Creek. They Journeyed to S. C. v hepe an inspired team stooped them 14-6. Bounc- ing back from tdlfyt defeat, Shelby power-housed, all over Columbus Res., 50-0. The final game was played with Polk and featured E..

The class of sixty-seven members was divided Into two groups. The first gruop consisted of grades 10 to 12 and the Junior gruop included grades 7 to 9. At the first of the year the class was seen outside playing kittenba.ll. Later when the weather would not permit this they were found playing basketball, the most pop- ular of their sports. In this activity they had a.n lnter-clas6 contest, with the Sophomores placing first, Juniors second, and SenJ.ors third. These contests wore held along with other Shelby games. After a couple of months of basketball the hour was spent in playing volley ball. At the beginning of each period, ten or fifteen minutes were spent in exercising. Again in the spring the groups played kittenball. This year however no Goldenrod Conference games were pla.yed. We wonder why? Could it have been th; t Shelby night have won the trophy? At least we think wc could h ve done so. ATHLETIC BANQUET The annual aithletlc banquet was held a.t Strain's Hall, January 31. Not only was a. record number of plates served, but the banquet Itself was a huge suc- cess. Derold Abbott, Bob Ingalls and Conch SheGtak all gave toasts, with Stanley Scott acting as toastmaster.

The third game was the 7 ?; 8th against the Frcehmon and after a mad scramble the 7 8th grade came out the winners. Soon after, the last game followed and we found those bir; Juniors romping the 7 8th grades rround, to win out in the last minutes of play with a. score of about 33 to 3.

Some of those little fellows are eighth graders, receiving a little knowledge of football so that they oan apply it in future yearr and by those boys deter- mination, they will get to sec some action in the near future. The boys are wrorklng so that they ca.n improve last ye°rr. reooxâd, we hope they can. And herehs luck to you fellows. Later this spring wo found the boys running, Jumping, hurdling,' throwing the discuss and shot put. Wc guesod it right, they ; re out for track. Coach Shcstak says tho boys arc coming along fine for not having track In previous years. The following boys placed in the track meet at Rising City; Ray Gabriel's 100 yard dash, Milton Gabriel's ha.lf mile, and Wallace Huddolston's mile run. Earl Graff ran.de his best time In this meet running the 220 in 34 seconds, but did not place. ACTSVITI ES ⢠The activities in Shelby High School vere born only tâ o years ago. In addition to the previously organized orchestra and girls' glee club, the band, dramatics club, boys' glee club and physical education classes ÂŤere Introduced into the school. They showed pro- gress in the first year and have continued to improve. Activities are diversion from studies. They add to the social enjoyment of school life. They tend to develop talents that otherwise âould be undiscovered. Each activity is interesting and help- ful. Every student in an activity derives much benefit ; nd pi asure from parti cipa.ting in it. Besides the pleasant memories md many opportunities they afford to their partici- pants, the activities have accumulated con- siderable funds for the school during the year. .f k GIRLS' GLEE CLUB Top Row: Lorraine Gabel, Agnes Gable, Margaret Gond- ringer, Shirley Johnson, Dona Watkins, Jane Brazee, J3eth Brazee, Mardelle Kuntzelman, Wynon Abbott, Iris Watkins, Thrasilla Alt, Julia Cole, Dolores Thelen, Estelle Kuntzelman, Nadine Lux, Loyola Kosch, Shirley Cole. 2nd Row: Mildred Prell, Maxine Kosch, Jean Braiee, Hazel Johansen, Dorothy Fozzard, Doreen Miller, Violet Taddiken, Mildred Jaax, Deloras Croisant, Bess Taddi- ken, Florence Nebosis, Dorothy Blrkel, Rosella Benda, 3rd Row: Miss Stephens, Mery Rose Kosch, Bertha Benda Lois 3ahm, Donna Thelen, Dorothy Detlmore, Arlene Mc- Beth, Dorothy Langer, Elaine Hasselbalch, Cariotta Carroll, Helen Gable, Mary Wolpert, Marilyn Thomp.zin.

The play opens in the lobby cf the Mountain View Inn, owned by Sue Grahame (Shirley Johnson) and Cheery Halt (Patty Dcrnan). Melchlzedek, a porter, (Harley Swan) and Desdemcna, a maid, (Arlcls Irland) are the only one3 that help run the hotel. The two girl3 are running the hotel to shew their Jealous boy-friends that they can support themselves. If the girls fail within six months, they are to return to the boys, who have been doing everything In their power to make it hard for the girls. A3 the girls are about to admit defeat, they receive a telegram from Lord Cuthbert Twilllngham stating that he is coming to the hotel for a short visit. As word gets around that Ix:rd Cuthbert is staying at the Inn, while in America searching for a rich heiress to marry, the hotel is soon overrun with rich women looking for a title to marry. These include Mbs. T. Jefferson Johns (Shirley IlcMeekln) and her daughter Gwenneth Johns (Nadine Lux), Scphronia Spatchett (Bess Ray) and her french maid Flfl (Lois Bahn). Dick Grahame (Stanley Scott) hears of this and be- lieving that Sue will fall in Love with the Lord, sends a telegram stating that the Lord Cuthbert will not be able to arrive as he expected. Fearing her customers will leave, Sue dresses Cherry to look like the Lord. The rich women believing that Cherry is the real Lord, propose to her.

A superior rating In the sub-district con- test at Genoa, and the district contest at Nebraska contest . The play, A WEDDING by John Kirkpatrick Is a fast-moving comedy of wholesome humor arid worthwhile entertainment. The scene is laid o.n the bride's home on the evening of her wedding. The misplacing of the groom's collar button delays the ceremony, and is the trivial but underlying cause of all the confusion which follows. It is manifested in the nervous best man , the distracted fathir,. tl p despairing 'aunt, the cynical' friend of the groom, and in the violet quar- reling of tne bride and groom which threatens to wrech their love. Ag in all good comedies, the lovers regret their hasty words, and the curtain falls as the happy bride assists the devoted groom to fast- en his collar. The part of the groom was ably played by Stanely Scott, who has the distinction of rating as best actor in the sub-district, the district, and the state contests; and the part of the bride was played by Shirley Johnson with her natural charm and vivacity. The supporting cast included Robert Hastert as best man Terence Messing, friend of the groom, Derold Abbott, the bride's father, and Shirley McMeekin, the bride's aunt. The value of dramatic art in our educational system is emphasized in contests such as these . Drama is the meeting place of life and art. The stu- dent who has learned to act has acquired an art Just as surely as he who has learned to paint, or to play the violin. Ernest, sincere dramatic work is the beet possible way to know literature, to understand human nature, and to develop speech of power and beau- ty. SENIOR PLAY The Girl From Out Yonder , a comedy-drama was given April 23. With the Seniors putting forth their best efforts, it was a huge success.

The Journalism class performs a valuable s ervi ce for the school and community. Through the publication of the Spectator and the news articles it sends to the Shelby Sup , it gives publicity to the school and keeps the community Informed of school events. The student taking Journalism realizes bene â fits, too. He develops povers of observation (a report- er must first of all be an accurate observer), his wri- ting style is improved and in meeting the deadling he forms haoits of promptness and responsibility.
