Early. i Three Board of Education The common school is the greatest discovery ever made by man. —Horace Mann. Sheridan High School is a member of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools; her graduates are admitted without examination to the leading universities and colleges of the United States. The high standing of Sheridan schools has been greatly aided by the loyal and efficient service of the Superintendent of Schools and the Board of Education. BOARD OF EDUCATION R. E. Carroll, President P. J. Theisen Max Lowe, Treasurer Geo. D. Johnson Edwin Small, Secretary Dr. P. M. Schunk Four It is trite to say these are terrible times for youth. But we seldom think that these are glorious times for youth. No other generation has had so fully an opportunity to save for the world the things that make life worth while. The sacrifices this generation must make are tremendous, may even be ultimate, but the responsibility is theix-s and they must not fail. —ROB’T W. SKINNER.

Seventeen Poetry Contest TO VICTORY I saw Victory one morning: In a far-off battlefield Hov’ring over Yankee soldiers Playing cards that Fate had dealed. I saw her touch a sailor To give him strength anew And make him want to rise and fight For red and white and blue. She helped a wounded pilot Get his bomber through the night. She watched a gold-star mother Playing by a candle light. She’s heard the words that dying men, Our brave Marines, have spoken, “Dear God, don’t let us die in vain— Don’t let our line be broken.” I saw Victory one morning On a far-off distant plain, Hov’ring over Yankee soldiers, Keeping watch o’er Yankee slain. She eased their pain while on Bataan; She fought with them at Wake. She’s been with them in fox-holes, too. They’ll win for Freedom’s sake. —Rose Mary Gillis. THE VICTORY PARADE The world’s at war and soldiers’ marching feet Resound with heavy tread to drummers’ beat. Above the clouds great soaring warplanes fly And drop their bombs where humans cringe and die For freedom’s sake. Long years of war, but shining through the dark A gleam of hope, that free undying spark, Shall grow and grow until it bursts at least Into a mighty and unconquerable blast. The Victory parade! Will come the day when tyranny’s bloody hand Shall no longer devastate the land. Down through all time will tread those silent hosts Of Freedom’s brave and ever gallant ghosts. The Victory parade! Now trumpets blare, the flags are waving high, A march of all free nations passing by. The democratic countries, great and true, All led by one grand red and white and blue. The Victory parade!

Twenty-sewn War Activities Sheridan High School students and faculty have taken an active part in war activities during this school year. Last fall volunteer workers from high school and town harvested approximately 8,000 tons of beets, and thus relieved the critical beet labor shortage. About 200 high school boys pulled and topped beets in fields from Lodge Grass to Clearmont. The girls did their share by enrolling in classes held at the high school. These classes were: Junior Red Cross bandage rolling, Red Cross first aid, scrap collecting, manual training of Red Cross materials, Junior Red Cross sewing, knitted afghans, wool afghans, Junior Red Cross handwork, scrap book fillers, hospital favors, model airplanes. Articles produced for the American Red Cross are as follows: Sewn and Knitted Articles 4— Afghans (knitted and wov- en from scraps of wool) 3—Afghans (woolen squares) 36—Bedroom slippers (men’s) 20—Card table covers 100—Stupe and stupe wringer 35— Utility bag Convenience Articles and Accessories 150—Bookmarks 5— Head-of-bed clothes hangers 41—Lapboards 75—Memorandum pads 36— Writing boards 50—Writing portfolios Recreational Articles 100—Bridge tallies 25—Cribbage boards 83—Crossword puzzles with solutions 12—Halma boards 240—Puzzles 10—Ringtoss 120—Scrapbooks 14—Stray t-N-A rrow Holiday Articles 100—Christmas carnival caps 300—Decorated napkins for Easter 300—Decorated napkins for Thanksgiving 12—Holiday decorations for Christmas 200—Menu covers for Christmas 300—Menu covers for Easter 200—Menu covers for July 4th 500—Nut and Candy cups 100—Table and tray favors for Washington’s Birthday 500—Table and tray favors for Easter 100—Table and tray favors for July 4th 100—Tray covers for Washington’s Birthday 100—Tray covers for July 4th In one day over 2,000 bandages were manufactured in the bandage rolling class, and five girls completed the Standard First Aid Course and received certificates. Since September, 1942, approximately 275 model airplanes have been constructed for army and navy use. Scrap collections totaled $214.41 and this amount was turned over to the Red Cross. The Defense Council again maintained the War Stamp booth across from the cafeteria on the first floor. Mr. Ralph Hylton and his bookkeeping classes have been in charge of the sale of stamps and bonds. Students and faculty have purchased approximately $12,000 of stamps and bonds from September to April 1. The Commission entered a contest sponsored by the Weatherwax High School of Aberdeen, Washington, to see which school could have the best average for per capita sales in war bonds and stamps. Sheridan High topped the eight high schools at the end of the four-week period with an average quota of $15.09. The contest was begun Feb- T wenty-eigrht ruary 22 and will close April 22. To promote sales an inter-room contest was carried on. This was won by Mr. Percy Kirk’s home room with a total purchase of $1,444.05 in stamps and bonds, an average of $41.26 per capita. The room received the framed picture of General Douglas MacArthur which was offered as a prize by Principal Robert W. Skinner. Other methods of selling stamps and bonds wex-e: Bond rally at the Fox Wyo Theater with prizes given by Manager Morehead, stamp admissions to the victory concerts by the band, and to the Senior A dance in March. Prizes for the winning essays in the contest sponsored by the American Legion Auxiliary were in war stamps. Other awards for high school organizations were also in the form of stamps. Other important war activities of groups have been: The pro- ceeds of the Spring Vocal Concert were given to the Senior Red Cross; the F. F. A. boys sponsored the “Give a knife—save a life” club and collected 100 knives, packed, and shipped them to San Francisco to be reconditioned before being sent to the soldiers in the South Pacific; cancelled stamps were collected in several home rooms and sent to the D. A. R. in the East for war purposes; a scrapbook of all war activities sponsored by the high school was made by Shirley Doyle, and sent to the state legislature as part of an exhibit of the defense and war work of the Sheridan schools; an air raid drill was conducted by the Defense Council on December 9; the faculty served as instructors of the classes for the girls while the boys were in the beet fields and as supervisors and registrars during the mileage rationing last fall and of Ration Book Two this spring. These courses have been added during the year at the special request of the government: Service Mathematics, a semester course; Commando Physical Education classes for the boys; Pre-flight Training; Electric Arc Welding and Machine Shop work; Red Cross Home Nursing class held at the city hall for high school girls. Many boys of the January and June classes have enlisted in the service, and their names are designated by a star in the activities section of the two classes elsewhere in this book.

Wright, Director PHYSICAL FITNESS PROGRAM Because of the need for boys entering the armed services being in top physical condition, schools are cooperating with governmental agencies in giving boys an opportunity to participate in physical education programs for toughening-up purposes. Beginning the second semester, classes were organized in our high school and 200 boys enrolled. Practically all the work is done out-doors and activities which tend to strengthen arms, neck, chest and shoulders are particularly stressed. An obstacle course consisting of seven separate obstacles has been completed and is in daily use. Instructors for these classes are: Ralph M. Keene, B. G. Wright, and W. L. Wright. CENTRAL GYMNASIUM No interclass basketball tournament was held this year, but the gym has been open Wednesday nights for high school boys where they have played basketball, worked on the climbing ropes and other apparatus and done some boxing and tumbling. TENNIS Neither the singles nor doubles tournaments were finished last year and though Lionel Gross and Bob Irwin fought their way through to the finals they could never seem to get together for the championship match. Both the singles and doubles tournaments are now under way for this year with the boys determined to complete them before school closes if possible to do so. Jimmie Minick is manager. No championship having been determined last year the Donald Gwinn trophy was not awarded. HORSESHOES Much interest has always been shown in the horseshoe tournaments and singles and doubles tournaments are now being played under the management of Dean Robinson. Bob Irwin won the singles championship for 1942, then teamed with Junior Neard in the doubles. Neard and Irwin won the championship by defeating Archie Cheslar and Dean Robinson. PING PONG Although there is not quite as much interest in table tennis this year as in other years, singles and doubles tournaments have already been held. Fred Hinz won the singles championship and Robert Lott was runner-up. The doubles championship was won by Richard Gruber and Robert Lott. Dean Robinson has been in charge of the ping pong tournaments also. Thirty-eisrht Athletics for Girls Once again Americans are looking to the schools for physical fitness, and much emphasis is placed on Physical Education. In Sheridan High School there are three classes open to girls, and this year eighty girls took advantage of them. In these classes girls participate in such activities as basketball, softball, kickball, volleyball, ping pong, dancing, shuffleboard and horseshoes. In Physical Education classes girls earn points for Girls’ Awards, letters and sweaters. Through gym classes they belong to the Girls’ Athletic League, the girls’ Athletic club of S. H. S. The department is doing its best to meet the standards of clean living, and the building up of mental and physical health, loyalty, cooperation, as well as a sense of fair play. —Irene L. Schlattman Director—Girls’ Athletics SWEATER AWARDS Girls’ Athletic League Sweaters are awarded to girls who belong to the Girls’ Athletic League when they have earned 1500 points. Gerry Cox, Betty Kruse, Florence Olson, Wilma Sack, Marilyn Switzer, Gertrude Voogd, and Muriel Wilcox earned sweaters this year.
