I hear you say, What does this word have to do with us? For the answer consult a dictionary. Webster says, Responsibility is a state of being responsible, accountable, or answerable, as for a trust, debt, or obligation. This should make us think. Surely, all of us have heard of the fighting man's responsi- bility. It is to fight, to die, if necessary, for his country. Responsibility to him means sticking to the guns until the job's done and done well. We have only to listen to the radio or read a newspaper to realize how well our fighting man is shouldering his responsibility in foreign lands, on the seven seas, and in the air. But what of the home front responsi- bilities? Shall we fail the fighting man's trust, and shy from even the mention of responsibility? We who remain at home cannot shirk our obligations, present or future. At this time our task is to guard the rights of the country for which many are dying. America is a fine sounding name, bringing to one's mind the thoughts of Liberty, Life, and Happiness, but it will be nothing more than a name if we fail our trust. None of us believe we shall lose the war, but to lose the peace will be just as bad. We must do our part to make this peace an enduring one. For this reason, we shall have to dedicate ourselves to several tasks. First of all, we have to do our part to win the war in order that this country can survive. Saving that extra dollar, digging deeply for War Bonds, using carefully that precious food-yes, saving all material re- sources-these are our responsibilities. Working harder, studying harder, using our brains as never before-yes, utilizing our time wisely is our privilege and our duty and will bring that glorious day of victory that much closer. Secondly, in order to win the peace and insure the good will and bless- ings of the world, we must help to provide food, clothing, and security for all. We shall have to see that a peace table is organized where disputes of centuries may be justly ironed out. We will have to throw out all the dictatorial ideas fomented by the greedy and selfish, and instill in the hearts of men the love of God, and that heavenly trait, brotherly love, and we shall have to see that all the Hitlers, Quislings, and Parasites no longer have a place in world affairs. Lastly, we must labor to make things easier for ourselves, our country, and the tired world. We will have to live at peace, a peace which benefits all men, and makes secure for everyone the blessings which we have enjoyed for so long. To do these jobs we shall have to take responsibility, grasp it, and fear no more its consequences. To remake this old world, we shall have to strive as never before. Responsibility is the price of Victory. Five QS onifnni' +9 .

Jaeger HYGIENE Norman Miller, M. D. Mary McLoon, M. D. Eunice Wright Seventeen MY RESPONSIBILITY TO MYSELF By GLORIA GRIFFERO I owe my greatest responsibility to myself. When I was born, God gave me a body, an intellect, and a soul. It is my responsibility as a creature of God to live in the body that he gave me and not to cast it away whenever I feel that life isn't worth living. It is also my responsi- bility to try to keep this body as physically fit as I can. In this way, I can enjoy the honest pleasures of the world. Perhaps, in the course of my life, I may lose the use of one of my limbs or organs. If God should see tit to send me such an affliction, I should be resigned to His will and should try to arrange my life and work in such a way that I could do the most good to everyone-myself, my neighbors, and my God. As Milton so beautifully expressed it in his sonnet, On His Blindness, Who best bear his mild yoke, they serve Him best and They also serve who only stand and wait. My intellect did me no good when I was born. It had to be nurtured by my parents, my teachers, my friends, my pastor, and others. As I grew, my intellect grew also, and very soon I could tell the difference between right and wrong. It then became my duty to broaden and improve my intellect. This meant reading good books and poems, associating with good companions, attending good movies, thinking for myself, following excellent leaders, leading a group myself occasionally, and co-operating always with others. Greater than my responsibility to my body and my intellect is my responsibility to my soul. My soul is a spiritual, eternal thing. It is the part in me which is God. Therefore, I should try to keep it pure and clean. I should feed it with pure thoughts, virtuous actions, and devout prayers. Since I shall always live with my soul and its close kin, con- science, I shall have to do kind deeds if I want to be proud of myself. Yes, my responsibility to myself is a large one, but by fulfilling it, I fulfill my responsibility to my family, my community, my city, my country, and the world.

Held we fall to rise. are baffled to fight betier. Sleep to wake. llRobert Browning ,P Had we Browning's golden voice, we could adequately express our feel- ing of loss at the passing of Miss Pierce. We could tell of her ability to initiate, to organize, to teach. As it is, we can but humbly say that the patrons, students, and faculty of Southwest High School wish to pay tribute to her memory. Her splendid leadership and untiring service in the Student Council leaves a monument which will always be cherished. Nineteen THE STUDENT COUNCIL Sponsor MISS LAWLESS The Student Council is the organization at Southwest in which students learn at first hand the duties of citizenship. Here is the proving ground for Democracy. No student group has taken upon itself such grave re- sponsibility as has this one, for it is the voice of the student body. Good government in a city, state, or nation depends upon the quality of the leaders which represent this city, state, or nation. Good leadership means good government. So it is with student government. A conscientious council which upholds high ideals does a major share in making an out- standing school. We point with pride to the record of the Southwest Student Council. Not only is it the student governing body, but it serves as a connecting link which joins the various advisory groups in all undertakings which need unified action. For example, the member or alternate acts as the agent for the collection of money, given by the students for various purposes, such as cookies for the U. S. O., the Pioneer for our boys in service, and the Junior Red Cross. It also sponsors the collection of articles for charity. These are but a part of the work of this busy group. Other duties include auditorium sessions, noonday entertainments, and care of the memorial case. Is it any wonder that the day of a council member and an alternate is one round of purposeful activity?

To them the school is a huge machine with intricate parts that must be kept moving with a steadiness so smooth that its activities are almost unnoticeable. These students are the gremlins whose responsibility it is to keep this machine in order. They are every place about the school, performing clerical and messenger work for the main office and Miss Wright, courteously serving as receptionists in the main hall, taking charge of lost-and-found articles in 319, and checking library slips and shelving books for Miss Cordell. In performing these tasks, members of the Special Service Club are showing a high degree of co-operation and a deep sense of obligation to their school. The school is grateful to them.

One thing you never have to worry about is being unable to see when you're in a crowd, you just look right over the top of people's heads. Some people may like that sort of thing, but as for me-this is my story: I suppose that I should begin by telling you that I go to a college for girls. Father wanted me to go to a co-ed school, but I put my foot down on that point--too bad I couldn't have put it down deeper fabout five inches, in facti. Somebody said that tall girls have poise-guess I got left out on that, too. The first day I arrived at school, I began to sum up the situation. I was to have a lovely room, it had said in the folder. When I got upstairs my three roommates had already begun to overhaul the room, I was to have the bed by the window so that I could get a lot of that nice fresh country air. As I made my bed I could feel that gust of wind blowing past me, and it didn't take much imagination to visualize the stiff necks I was to have. Yes, it was a great room. My bed proved to be a little short but, by tucking the covers in closely, I could stick my feet out between the bars. This method proved successful as long as I remained on my back. There are a lot of things you have to know to be tall successfully and I've learned quite a few. Susie, Mary, and Jane had placed the mirror at just the right height, they could get a last-minute view of the tilt of their hats by merely glancing into it, if I wanted to see myself, all I had to do was to get down on one knee. I had the ideal drawers, the bottom two. The girls promised to rub my back with liniment whenever I became stiff from bending down. The great event of the school year was a spring dance- Gosh, I could hardly wait. The boys to be invited were cadets from Norwood Military School and I could just visualize the little boys. The rumors spread around that some of the boys were six feet tall, but I don't believe in rumors-or miracles, for that matter. My only hope was that I would develop an attack of something or other. That had worked well before. Or I might say that, in response to a telegram from Father, I had to go home immedi- ately to help him care for my poor sick mother, whose only ailment was an occasional sneeze. That had worked too except that Mother felt rather strange when the girls sent a beautiful bouquet of flowers and a warm cheery note. For this particular dance, I had begun to run out of excuses. Unex- pectedly Susie informed me that she had arranged a blind date, and I knew that I Was doomed. Of course, he might find out about me ahead of time and manage to develop something himself. This had happened before, too. In spite of my hope and speculations, the fatal day arrived. The crown- ing point arrived when little Nellie down the hall asked me if she might borrow my darling blue skirt because her formal hadn't come back from the cleaners-she said she thought it might drag a little, but she'd turn up the hem so she wouldn't step on it. With her white dinner jacket it Twenty-eight would look just too divine. Before I had a chance to protest, my skirt was carried off down the hall and so to oblivion. When Mother heard that I was to go to the spring formal, she sent me a beautiful gown. I thought it much too nice for the part it Would be takingg those chairs were usually so dirty. The girls had fixed my hair and I looked quite stunning if any- body bothered to look up that high. I had even stretched the point a little and had bought a pair of silver shoes with one-inch heels, leaving me one inch before I reached the six-foot mark. When Susie and I came down the stairs to meet our dates in the parlor, I had the usual urge to run away, but Susie pushed me on. When I saw the two boys standing there, my hopes went up a little, for one of the boys was quite tall. He, of course, would be my date, I thought. However, as I went over to be introduced, I heard Susie say, I'd like you to meet Arthur Hitchcock, who will introduce you to your date. Right then my bubble burst. I gazed down at the little fellow and knew we'd get along wellg all I had to do was to keep seated and no one would know, as I slouched down in my seat, that I was at least five inches the taller. He was a very nice fellow and I am sure, if he would have spoken louder, I, too, could have enjoyed his jokes. Would you care to dance ? he asked me as the band began to play for the first dance. Yes, I said, making the only response I could. We made quite an unusual couple-so unusual, in fact, that I could feel the eyes of all the other couples upon us. That helped my nerves so much. He was trembling slightly and his face was a scarlet red. As I was used to dancing with girls, when I discovered that he couldn't lead, I took the situation in my own hands. After all, what difference does it make who leads! After a few dances, I managed to scramble off to the powder room, which is always a refuge for those who are not having a good time. Finally, I decided that I had better go back, so I gathered up all my courage and burst outside. If I hoped he would be waiting for me, I was disappointed, for he was nowhere to be seen. This should have made me unhappy, but instead it gave me an opportunity to look around without causing another scene. Just then I heard footsteps behind me and I thought my vacation was short-lived. Oh, well, I might as well be polite. So I quickly turned around, looked down, caught my breath, and looked up. I was so surprised at the height of the boy standing before me that I am sure my stare frightened him. After the first momentary pause we both began to laugh, and for the first time in myglife a tall boy had really asked me to dance. This time it was I who did the trembling. If I ever had to dance well, it was then, but my feet always seemed to be in the wrong places. At the end of the dance I waited for the inevitable to happen. He would probably have to see a friend or some such thing and so quietly escape. The inevitable did not happen. Call me Randy, he said, as he whirled me back onto the dance floor. I was in bliss. We got on much better after this. He seemed so inter- ested that I forgot my height, my lack of poise, and had a good time. When the band struck the last note of the last dance, I was really sorry. I glanced around to see if Susie and Arthur were waiting for me. Perhaps Randy wouldn't take me home: perhaps he would thank me for a lovely time, walk off, and there I would be. Oh, I'd walked home before. None of these things came true. Not only did he take me home and squeeze my hand, but he asked me if I would go to his school dance the following Tuesday. Yes, I think Father was right, perhaps five feet ten isn't so tall. Twenty-nine BARBERS f Prize Winning Essay Q By WILLIAM CONWELL About once a month, when it begins to be dangerous for me to venture abroad without a dog license and when my hair begins to inter- fere with my hearing, I begin to think, just think, mind you, of going to the barber. It is not until two or three weeks later, though, that I suit the action to the words and pay a visit to that small brick building upon whose sides is firmly affixed a peppermint-striped pole designating the shop of my barber. There are thorns on every rose, fleas on every dog, dandelions on every lawn, flies in every houseg so it must be-the good with the bad. One thing always makes for imperfection. In the barber shop that thing is-you guessed it-the barber. Now don't get me wrong. I enjoy the attention, the tilted chair, the foot- rest, and the idleness of it all, I enjoy a few moments away from humanity, but not to the extremes I find in the barber shop. When I come to the totem-pole billboard, I am usually in high spirits, because here I can sit doing nothing without arousing adverse criticism. Furthermore, I grin at the stir I shall cause at home without my coat . Not even the line of waiting males can dampen my spirits. On the con- trary, as I contemplate the literary treat in store for me, my spirits actually rise. Seeing me peering through the window, the barber usually waves his comb enticingly at me. Come in, say his gestures. I enter, disregarding the look on his victim's face, which sorrowfuly says, You'll be sorry. The fiend greets me as the spider did the fly. Hello, I meekly reply and stiffly sit down. I'm trapped. As he resumes his chatter at the agonized human in the chair, I thumb quickly through Fuming Flickers, the title of which proves to be no misnomer. Swiftly I pass over Ronald Romantic's suit coat physique and those of the other stars that abundantly adorn the magazine and presently come to spicy pictures of Harriet Heartfiutter and her sisters. But just as I settle down to revel in Harriet's blonde beauty, the barber points his gleaming scissors at me, with the shrill battle cry, Next ? As I wade through the shorn locks covering the floor, I think of our living-room rug after my dog has just shaken himself. Bravely I sink into the arms of the barber's chair. At my head, a barber usually frowns. and after running his fingers through the dense growth, he glares, and finally he fumes at me with the sarcastic purr that perhaps I had been on a long hunting trip or maybe on a life raft in the Pacific to have acquired so much hair. I just mumble. This is the only way I can answer. If I quip, he doubles his already doubled price, and if I don't answer he'll really cut itg so I just mumble. Apparently satisfied with my mumble. he deftly throws a huge striped sheet over me. He surveys me critically, and then, like a dive-bomber pilot pushing a lawn mower, he attacks with the clippers-Bzzzzzzzzzz. To me it sounds like a buzz saw. And as it zooms over my neck, I think of Marie Antoinette, and become convinced that my barber must be her Thirty executioner reincarnated. Suddenly he cranks up the chair, jarring me terrifically. Disgusted that I can't even sit still when he cuts my hair, he holds my head firmly at the proper angle and renews his neck attack. He is a great judge of human nature, my barber. After a short period of silence, during which he maps a verbal attack on my school spirit, he begins to laud naively the baseball team possessed by a school on the other side of town. See how safe he plays? But any spirit which I may have possessed has already been stifled by the octopus-like chair, and so I resort to monosyllables and possibly a disparaging aw to answer his scheming queries. He begins, after making the amazing discovery that I have no school spirit, to tour the other subjects-the war, weather, and politics. Invariably he baits a trap by asking me a question to which I must reply in a sentence. Swiftly he combs my hair over my forehead, and as I answer, he clips a lock, thereby getting hair into either my eyes or my mouth. As he fiendishly chuckles, I begin to engender a deadly hatred toward him. After what seems to be an hour or so of chatter and hair clipping from this garrulous head-hunter, I begin to worry. Surely he has clipped enough from the back of my headg after all, I don't intend to masquerade as bald but benevolent Mister Pickwick. Ah-wah!! He's started on my neck again. Surely no hair is left back there. He is getting it too short. He is lathering my sideburns for a trimming. A wretchedly sharp razor he uses. As if nicking wood, he strikes at my face. I repress a desire to leap at him and snatch it from his hand. After all he's almost through. But these last minutes of waiting for a release from the chair are endless. He trims here, he cuts there- Out come ye olde clippers again. I groan. Finally he flings the sheet from me-I'm free-nope, wretched boy that I am, he has snatched me back again. He intends to comb my hair. Mighty white of him, but I'm the only one who can do this and keep my friends. Too weak to protest, I submit, knowing full well that I'll have to go up side streets until I reach home. I After a visit such as I have just described, in which a man's soul is stifled, in which he is chagrined, in which he is browbeaten and inhumanly tortured, is not the answer to those aggravating questions: VVhy didya get a crew-cut? and When ya goin'ta get another haircut? self-evident?

It runs through the valleys and skips through the It launts me, it tempts me: road, please take me The wind has taught me the Vagabond's Song. The leaves are all dancing in colorful array. Soon I shall be laughing and dancing along, The wind has taught me the Vagabond's Song. I wonder and ponder on what lies beyond The beckoning way seems heavenward bound. I'd like to discover just how the road goes. Does it wind? Does it twist? Does it stop? Who The sun followed the road down over the hill, And the scarey old owl, sits on top of the mill. The bright smiling moon seems to beckon me on. While the wind in the trees sings the Vagabond's Song. I wish I were free to go here and go there. Just walking and laughing with never a care. The moon and the stars and the clouds run along. While the wind in the trees sings the Vagabond's Song.

TO YOU WHO WONDER By BETTY LASATER Diane stepped off the street car and stopped to watch a convoy of Army tank trucks carrying precious fuel to some base, probably the airport. Behind them were three trucks filled with hardened tough, clean-cut fellows in khaki. Some of the soldiers leaned out and waved, laughter and gaity in their eyes and the joy of living written on their faces. One truckload was singing, I've got sixpencef' Diane felt a warm glow and she smiled and waved back. She watched them disappear around the bend and then she turned and started the trudge up the long hill. Diane came just about as nearly to being an average American girl as anyone possibly could. She was five feet, four inches tall, weighed about 112 pounds, had glowing chestnut hair, light hazel eyes that smiled most of the time, a little turned-up nose, and sparkling white teeth. Although not strikingly beautiful, she was what most people would term a darn cute kid. She loved music and dancing, liked school to a certain degree, swam, played tennis and basketball, was interested in almost anything else that was good clean fun, was certain that some day she would have a great career fan idea that would probably fade when she met the right manl and, this being Thanksgiving, she was on her way to church just like thousands of other Americans. She most certainly was not unpatriotic, not in any sense of the word, but on this particular morning, as she battled her way up the hill, fighting the bitter north winds that swept down from the overcast, cloud-laden skies, she wondered what it was all about. Of course, she knew she had a lot of things to be thankful for, but right now she could think of a lot of things to be unthankful for. Her brother Jimmy, just two years older than she, was somewhere in the South Pacific--or maybe-now he was-. But no, she musn't think about things like that. Boys she had known all her life were fighting in Africa, Italy, the Aleutians, all over the world. Then there was that new dress that she'd been wanting so desperately for so long-Father had invested the money in War Bonds instead. Uncle Will and Aunt May, her favorite relatives, weren't going to be able to make it for Thanksgiving dinner for the first time in years, there simply wasn't any room on the trains. Then, too, if it weren't for rationing, she wouldn't be struggling up the hill in this cold, the family would have come in the car as usual. What were these fellows really fighting for? She had heard plenty of pretty speeches on the subject, but somehow they didn't seem real. They didn't fit. She turned in at the walk leading to the church and thought, as always, with that same little inner sense of shock, what a good coat of paint would do for the building. The wooden shingles covering it were brown and beginning to warp, and the steps creaked under her feet as she trod them. The door squeaked discordantly as she swung it open and her face fiushed as people turned to see who the new, slightly late arrival was. An usher handed her a hymnal and guided her down the aisle. As the church was crowded, she had to climb across two little old ladies, who were sitting next to the aisle and evidently intended to stay there. The choir stood up to sing, and Diane sat back to relax and enjoy the music. The organist began the familiar strains of Praise the Lord, O Jerusalem, the tra- ditional Thanksgiving anthem, but there was something wrong. The choir sounded weak, not strong and joyous as Thanksgiving should be. Of course this was due to most of the men's being gone. There were only two basses now and they were old and uncertain of pitch. The tenors were just as bad off, if not worse, with just three members, one being more of a boy soprano than a tenor. Even the women's sections were low, as three of the younger girls had joined the Waves in rapid succession the previous spring. As she listened, Diane felt herself straining as the sopranos groped for a high note. She found herself hoping the basses would come Thirty-three in at the right time, and as the last strains of the music quivered away into silence, instead of feeling relaxed and soothed, she felt tired and worn-out, as if it had been she, not others, singing. As the minister stood up and opened his Bible to the scripture verse, the congregation settled back, and paper and programs ceased to rattle. Although Diane had wished for something different, it seemed as though he were going to preach the same Thanksgiving sermon on physical and spiritual blessings. Try as she would, she could not keep her mind from trailing off to distant things. Her eyes wandered about the building. How badly it needed repairs! The plaster was cracked and the paint needed a good cleaning. Even the stained-glass window, which had always been beautiful, seemed dim and colorless, and the choir needed new robes. It seemed as though even her church were letting her down. She thought of the good times the youth fellowship groups used to have. They'd hold their evening meeting and then gather to go bowling, or if the fellows were financially embarrassed, they'd walk to the nearest ice-cream parlor for a sundae or a coke, The fellows had formed a basketball and a softball team and there'd been the excitement of practices and tourna- ments. But those were all things of the past. Their meetings were begin- ning faintly to resemble an old maids' club, and of course the sports teams had been abandoned. Diane was feeling pretty dejected. She was rather tempted to leave, to get out into the fresh air, but of course she couldn't do that, so she continued studying the walls and the figures in the glass. Suddenly her gaze came to rest on a soldier seated across the aisle from her. He, too, was gazing about him, at the walls and at the peopleg but on his face there was no scorn, only love and adoration, only a look of deep satisfaction and content. Suddenly the sun, breaking through the clouds, shone through the colored glass and cast glowing colors of red and yellow, erasing all marks of neglect and giving the church a soft, mysteriously soothing light. The soldier looked up and smiled. Just as suddenly a light burst forth within Diane, clearing away all shadows and doubts. She knew now she had the answer. No longer must she worry and wonder. Here was the answer in simple American language. No fancy fiowing words, just plain, understandable. Those boys in Sicily, Africa, Guadalcanal, in Alaska and Iceland-pushing ever forward against seemingly unbeatable odds, digging their fingers into the dirt and grime and muck to keep them from shakingg yes, those boys, still babies to their mothers, but men according to the country's standards-they were fighting for this. They were fighting for what all the people at home had, for what she had been mocking. They were fighting for the right to come back and be a part of something like this, to sit in just such a small church, in the humble worship of God, to listen to music, full of meaning and message, if not excessive beauty, and to join a group of young people who could play and laugh without fear of bombings and death. The sermon ended and the choir rose to sing the closing response. Somehow the chant sounded more beautiful this time, perhaps because it was sung softly, perhaps for a deeper reason. The minister dismissed the congregation with a closing prayer and they began to file towards the door, laughing and talking quietly among themselves. Several people came over to greet Diane, giving her a warm handclasp and a hearty hello, She stepped outside into a new and different world. The sky had cleared and the blue heaven was smiling a welcome. Diane turned down the hill and thought how good it was to be walking. She swung happily along, hum- ming a gay tune, enjoying the world so completely transformed by the rays of sun. A small dog cantered up beside her and she stooped to pet it. The cold did not seem so intense any more and she felt warm and content as she stood waiting for a car. The street car pulled up and Diane climbed aboard. Thirty-four THE.

T T T L I T I 1 f ,fri -naw xx E NUM MQ-Q THE mo RNERS ' BENCH -- 8 Thirty-six ELEVATORS By MARION LEMEN Elevators are fascinating things. They are not merely machines that travel from fioor to floor, with no consequence, but they can change a person's whole outlook upon life. People may be very calm and well behaved when they enter an elevator, but by the time they step out they may have turned savage. They must be so if they do not want to be lost in the stampede. Nearly everyone has ridden in elevators, and nearly everyone has had some experience in an elevator that he is not likely to forget. I walked into a department store the other day and stood waiting for an elevator. It arrived and, as the operator opened the door, she said in a very perfunctory manner, Let them out, please. But there was no letting to it-they just came. I dodged from side bo side and finally walked backward until I was out of the way of the savages who were pouring from the elevator as if the ropes that held it were going to break at any minute. By the time I had bent over and picked up my purse and had adjusted my hat to its proper position, the elevator was filled, and again I heard the voice of the operator. This time she said, That's all, please. Next car. But I had learned. This time I stood on the other side of the elevator, paying no attention to the call, Let them out, please. I began fiercely to let myself in. I did get in-the first one, too. But this definitely was not good, as I was soon to find out. I wanted to get off on the third floor, but somehow I could not push through and had to ride all the way up to the top, then down to the first floor, and all the way up to the third again. On my way up I was constantly being punched in the stomach by someone. And, of course, I was not the only one who was trying to stand on my feet. When I had once more reached the first floor, I decided to stand near the front of the car, and so get out more easily. But somehow I always manage to stand in front of some small child. This time I was continually being punched in the back by a little girl who seemed to be having a grand time, for she squealed at each fioor and as she did so, lunged for- ward in a very peculiar manner. At least my back felt very peculiar when I got out. I did my shopping and got on an elevator to go down. This elevator, surprisingly, was almost empty, and so I was near the rear of the car. Several other people got on at the second fioor. The last one to step in was a middle-aged man who seemed quite frightened at the rapidity with which the operator closed the door. Perhaps this was because he was half in and half out when she started to close the door. Nearly everyone got out on the first floor, but this man seemed to have other plans. He tried to step to one side, but in spite of his efforts he was pushed out with the mob. I watched him. He evidently gave up the idea of the elevator, for he slowly walked toward the door leading to the street, several times glancing back at the elevator and growing more determined at each glance, it seemed, to go out of the store and stay out. While I was watching the man, I, too, was engaged in the process of getting out of the elevator. Suddenly I heard, Step down, please. Indeed, I did! My whole body stepped down, and I was sprawled with my pack- ages all over the floor. People turned and laughed. The elevator passen- gers were almost hysterical. I rose with all the dignity possible under the circumstances and marched stiffly out of the store. How was I to know that the fioor of the elevator and that of the main fioor of the store were not on the same level? Even now I walk into an elevator only when I am feeling very brave. This feeling occurs very rarely, usually when I am with someone else. I feel much safer on the stairs, even if I must pant up to the sixth fioor. Thirty-seven MISSOURI HILLS By KATHLEEN MARSHALL Slumbering war-worn knights: They sleep with heads bent down. Their rough old mantles green Patched here and there with brown.

NOON The sun with all its warmth beats down ,On fields of wheat in a golden gown: It seems the whole world shouts, Not a creature doubts: It is God's country. NIGHT Now as the sun sinks in the West, Now is the time for prayer and restg Now as the purple shadows fall, Now it can be told by all: It is God's country. Thirty-nine THE BOY WHO WOULD NOT FIGHT By SHIRLEY WARREN The man in uniform cleared his throat and everyone became still. It was a hot day and the bright rays of the sun fell on the gold medals lying in the satin box and on the silver wings that glittered on the speaker's breast. When a man has died heroically while fighting for his country, he is highly honoredg his kin are presented with the medals he earned and his name is spoken in tones of reverence. And this is as it should be. But on this particular day, of those who gathered to honor this particular hero, how many were there who carried not only homage but apology in their hearts? , The man began to speak, at first hesitantly, then with more confidence. He spoke of courage in battle and devotion to duty. He said all the custo- mary and correct things, and then he began to tell a story which had its beginning about fifteen years before: The sun poured down on the hot pavements and shimmering slate roofs of the little Missouri town sleeping in the midday heat. Suddenly the quiet was shattered as a troop of noisy urchins burst into sight. They were, it seemed, pursuing a small figure that raced before them, apparently heading for a little cottage set back from the shady street. 'Fraidy cat! Fraidy cat!' they screamed. 'Mamma's little baby! Run home to Mammal' Into the house their quarry scrambled, slamming the door on the hateful shouts and turning to face the wrath of another. 'Hank McHall! Aren't you ashamed! Why don't you stand up for yourself and fight? You don't want to be called a coward, do you ?' The mother stood over the sobbing boy and her heart ached for him. She asked softly, 'Hank, are you afraid to fight ?' And a choked voice replied, 'No! I just do-don't wanna! I just can't !' 'All right, dear. We won't talk about it now. Run and wash your face before you eat your lunch! And so it was forgotten. Yet that night a mother's sleepless eyes watched the moon rise and set, and through the open window the soft night breeze danced as if it were a gentle spirit trying to soothe the misery and to quiet the questions in her heart. And through another window it slipped, ruffling the white curtains and kissing the wet cheeks of the child that lay in uneasy slumber on a tear-drenched pillow. lk If if lk Six summers rolled swiftly by and, as surely as the leaves withered and died in fall, so did the little schoolhouse throw open its doors. In the schoolyard could be heard the babbling of voices that rose higher and higher. Rocky Taylor, a redheaded demon of twelve, faced Hank McHall and screamed hoarsely, 'What if I did take your baseball bat! Why don't you try to get it back? You're scared, that's why. You're scared to fightl' Hank's face was white and his hands were clenched at his side, but he said firmly, 'I'm not scared. The ol' bat just isn't worth fighting about.' 'Aw, you're yellow !' Rocky yelled. 'Hank's yellow! Hank's yellowl' And the boys howled with laughter as he turned and walked away. Later he felt better as he ran home kicking the leaves and whistling. He was alone, but had long since become used to that. No one but a dumbbell would fight about a moldy ol' baseball bat, he thought, and was feeling quite cheerful when a boy on a bicycle rode by. 'There's Mousie McHall! Hi, Mousie? Forty Hank walked quite slowly, shuffling the leaves a little, and his dark eyes were filled with misery. 'K 'lf lk lk Tall, lanky, and nearly eighteen, Hank was in his last year of high school. Unusually shy and reserved, he had never become popular and was still held in light scorn by his classmates. On the night of the first big dance of the year, the high-school gym- nasium was ablaze with lights and the band blared loud and gloriously while the couples on the floor swayed and twirled with the music. At the fringe of the crowd stood Hank, unhappily gazing at the laughing dancers and wondering what had become of his date, Sylvia Cunningham. When he finally spied her at the far end of the gymnasium in the flattering com- pany of Rocky Taylor, football star, he saw that Sylvia obviously had forgotten his existence and he decided to remind her. Marching across the crowded fioor, he politely claimed her for the next danceg his broad-shouldered rival merely laughed in his face. Al- though trying to provoke Hank McHall into a fight was a pastime that had long since lost its appeal because of the inevitable outcome, Rocky delighted in making a fool of the seemingly timid Hank. 'I don't like your face, Mousie! And I don't like your attitude. Sup- pose we go outside and talk this over.' Saying this, Rocky gave Hank a shove that nearly sent him flying through the open door close by. Flushing, Hank quickly regained his balance and glared at the other boy. Twelve years rolled back and he could hear his mother asking softly, 'Are you afraid to fight, Hank ?' Old doubts and fresh misery flooded his heartg then he suddenly realized that Rocky was standing in front of him waiting to see what he would do. He soon found out. 'Rocky will take you home, Sylvia,' Hank said quietly and strode through the door. Behind him the girl's shrill voice said distinctly, 'Oh, what a coward! Have you ever--?' He stumbled in the dark and his face burned. 'I'm not a coward,' he raged to himself. 'There's no sense fighting like animals for such stupid, unimportant things. I'm not afraid! I've never been afraidl' Three months later came Pearl Harbor, and the nation was rocked to its foundations. In the following days, as news of the treachery poured in over the air waves and headlines screamed the tidings, above the bewil- derment and confusion, white hot fury was seething in the soul of Hank McHall. He lay awake one night until dawn, but when the sun broke into the sky, the doubts and confusion had fied, leaving clean fury and a determined mind. That morning there were derisive hoots from several comrades as the boy who would not fight enlisted in the Army Air Corps. And he left with Rocky Taylor. Ill ill Pk 4' The speaker mopped his face, for it was very wet and not a few of his listeners searched for handkerchiefs. In the heat of summer tears can easily be mistaken for perspiration, but there is no mistaking the sound of sobbing. Rocky Taylor paused for a moment. His eye came to rest on the hero's mother, who was sitting straight and still. Then he continued . . . Yes, Hank McHall and I left together, trained together, and fought together. I had known him all my life, yet I knew nothing about him. We thought he was a coward, he was brave beyond any of us. We thought he was afraid to fight: all he wanted was something really worth fighting for. We gave him nothing to remember without bitternessg he gave us much to remember with pride. ' Forty-one WORLD AT PEACE By NANCY CABLE Let us think a soldier's thoughts, In war-torn countries far: Not blaring headlines. fear, and crime, Nor bombs that wound and scar. But thoughts of homes and peaceful Helds, Of lamps at euentide, And families that gather 'round A peaceful tireside. Where Mother's knitting needles click With quick staccato sound, And Father reads aloud to us Some treasure he has found. The puppy stretches on the rug And blinks his sleepy eyes, While the kitten purring softly, Gives forth contented sighs. The flames leap up the chimney high, A spark shoots 'cross the floor, While firelight CGSIS queer shadows On the windows and the door. It's a simple cozy picture, But it represents a part Of the many things he's fighting for. That are dearest to his heart. Forty-two ' - ,...-. A ' .:,vwf 'k..f. M ,e,,.:qs. T 'W' e3 mm .

MEMORIES By SELMA BAKER While going through the attic one day last summer, I ran across an old trunk that, from outside appearances, had not been touched for many a year. While rummaging through old dresses and books, I came upon a package that was neatly wrapped in white tissue paper and tied with a pink ribbon. Upon seeing this package, my eyes lit up with memories of the past. I quickly untied it, and there before me was a diary I had kept when I was a young girl in high school. As I skimmed the yellow pages, vivid pictures of my youth flashed through my mind. I stopped here and there to read this or that incident more thoroughly. The event that I remember, as though it had happened yesterday, was the ice carnival that my class, the class of January '25, put on for our town. The writing in the diary is rather faint from age, but I think I can still make out my childish scrawling. It goes something like this: Saturday, Dec. 10, 1924. Dear Diary: I guess I have neglected you lately, but I have been so busy worrying about the carnival that I haven't had time to confide my joys and troubles in you. Rehearsals for the review have been going on for a month, and everything is finally beginning to hop into shape. As you know, I am to be the star, and Jimmy, that handsome boy that all the girls are crazy about, is my partner. Mary Lou, Mr. Sylvester's darling daughter, is going to be our surprise attraction. Her mother knows about this, but not her father, the old crab. I should feel sorry for our carnival if we should have to ask his permission or assistance for anything. This is about all I can tell you tonight, as it is past eleven P. M. and Mother will scold if I continue to burn the midnight oil. Saturday, Dec. 17, 1924. Dear Diary: Here I am again, a week having elapsed since my last writing. Every- body is enthusiastic about the ice review-tickets are already sold out in advance. Everyone from little Johnnie Jones to the Mayor is going to be present at our ice extravaganza. A terrible tragedy had to happen to spoil the above good news. Jimmy has caught those horrible things called the mumps and will have to be in bed for about ten days. This will delay things for a while, but since the carnival is two weeks off, I think everything will work out all right. The show is going to be held on Horseshoe Lake. We had to obtain permission from the Mayor, since the property belongs to the town. Lights of every color in the rainbow are to be strung across the lake, and benches will be arranged in rows on the bank for the spectators. Oh, there's Mary Lou. I have to see her about the costumes, so I shall have to leave you for a time. - Wednesday, Dec. 21, 1924. Dear Diary: I have never been so disgusted in all my life. The most dismaying incident happened today. The house where the costumes were stored burnt down to the ground. Fate must really be against us, for on top of everything else, Mr. Forty-three Sylvester has bought the lake property and has forbidden our trespassing on his grounds. I presume we shall have to organize a committee to use some super salesmanship on dear Mr. Sylvester. Sunday, Dec. 26, 1924. Dear Diary: This is the day after Christmas, and the committee has had a visit with Mr. Sylvester. We had hopes that the Christmas spirit might soften his cold heart, but it must be made of solid granite. He absolutely refused to even hear what we had to say. I have no idea what We are going to do, since the carnival is only five days off. There is no other suitable place to be had on such short notice. The tickets are all sold, the costumes are all remade, and the lights and benches are all arranged around the lake. Friday, Dec. 31, 1924. Dear Diary: Today is the day of the carnivalg and, much to everyone's joy, every- thing has worked out perfectly. Oh, I forgotg I haven't told you all the good news of the past week. Mr. Sylvester has given us permission to use the lake. It all came about through Mary Lou, his daughter. Last Tuesday she was rehearsing on the lake by herself, as we were forbidden on the property. Luckily, Jim and I had been walking near by when we heard someone screaming. Jim, my handsome hero, rushed to see what had happened and arrived just in time to see Mary Lou fall struggling beneath the broken ice. He dived into the icy water and pulled her safely to the bank. Her father, overjoyed at seeing his daughter unharmed, gladly gave his consent to our using the lake. He also extended an invitation to a children's home to come free of charge. I guess miracles will never cease. Friday, Dec. 31, 1924. Dear Diary: I have just returned from the carnival, it was really a big success. The town will remember this gala class event for many a year. Nothing of its kind has ever been attempted before in the history of our town. Jim gave me his fraternity pin tonight before we did our solo. This came as quite a surprise to me. Oh, I'm tiredg I can hardly keep my eyes open so . . . THE STRENGTH OF THE WOODS By VIRGINIA COZEAN To camp in the woods 'neath a clear. starry sky: To gaze at the beauty of Nature's calm night: To hear the owI's hoot and the cricket's sad Cry: To sense the day's cares have all taken flight: To make firm resolve to attain a high goal: To End a new hope for the day just ahead: To feel the Great Strength in the cool gentle breeze: To sleep all at peace on a pine needle bed, To dream to the whispering tall leafy trees: Thus man may End Tranquility of Soul. Forty-four A WGODLAND WINTER . By MAURENE LEWIS The dry leaves fall gently from the weathered oak tree And drift with the stream in its path to the sea. The squirrels and rabbits all scurry around, Preparing for winter and snow-covered ground. And the cold wind blows! The sparrow, the redbird, the bluejay, and crow All huddle in fir trees for shelter from snow: And the wood is a mother protecting her young From the sharp bite of winter when autumn is done. And the cold wind blows! And now all the woodfolk are ready for cold, And fear not the bleak, wintry days that unfold: For they know by instinct that when winter's gone Warm spring will follow with its melodious song. And the spring zephyrs blow! fAccepted for publication by the National High School Poetry Associationy THE INVITATIGN By PATTY GOODRICH We's all come here to worship strong, You Sistah Smith an' Brothah Long, Fo' ef you gone an' prayed each night You'll find yo'self in heabenly light.

Everyone, young or old, rich or poor, has his own favorite reminiscences, and we teen-agers are no exception. I like to remember when everybody's pop and big brother were at home every evening, and there were not service flags in the window or empty seats at the table. Since we had an army of only about twelve thousand officers and a hundred thousand enlisted men, a soldier was a rare sight. In those days being in the army was just another profession. Remember when the newspaper headlines told of an occasional bank robbery or a new city ordinance, and the wedding of a prominent citizen made the front page: when everyone seemed to be arguing whether Roose- velt or Landon were the better man for President, lustily shouting at each other amid a deluge of sunflower buttons and a proposal for a mill tax? Longingly recalled is that marvelous era when Hershey bars and chew- ing gum were as plentiful as alarm clocks, and salespeople either fell all over themselves waiting on you at the store, or kept your doorbell hot trying to sell you bobby pins, copper scouring pads, Fuller brushes, or carpet sweepersg too, there was an extra piece of meat around at dinner. Recollect the long drives in the country on hot fvery hotl summer evenings, and how everyone anxiously awaited the new car models for the next year? To restore these things, today's teen-agers are buying bonds, collecting paper, scrap iron, and rubber . . . and fightingg in short, they are doing everything in their power to make these memories actualities once more and to make war a mere memory. WANDERLUST By SHIRLEY KALLMEYER Some folks enjoy a dancing Ere On a crimpy winter's eve. But my delight's in silver walks 'Neath the moon and stars and trees. The moonbeams make a jeweled path For my humble feet to tread: They'lI make it years henceforth. Long after I am dead. Life is too short to waste and dream Before a glowing grate. I want to see its wond'rous things Before it grows too late. Forty -six DAY-DREAMING By JEANETTE HORNEMANN It is morning. The sun is sending his golden rays to softly caress the earth. The birds begin to flit from tree to tree. The flowers seem to open their petal-arms To drink in the beauty of the morning. The sky is pale blue. Fluffy white clouds drift across it And are reflected in a small stream, A stream which trickles lazily through the soft green grass. The air is crisp and cold. and it gives a zest for life. -Then. quite unexpectedly. It is night: a black velvet night With the stars winking and blinking from an onyx sky. And the moon beaming broadly as he sees the group of you Young folks gathered around the camp-fire Singing songs of the old West. Then,-as quickly as before. the scene again changes. It may be night and it may be day, ' One cannot tell, For the air is thick with dust and smoke and flying debris. The bombs are coming down in torrents, And planes are battling above, Zooming and diving as they spit fire. Dear God in Heaven! How can man be called civilized wh How can he? I Then one wakes with a start. But how can he awake when he had never been asleep? He may not have been asleep, But he was dreaming, Dreaming of things he likes, and does not like.

I muse of open country. Of rambling, shaded trails, With quick-darting things beneath my feet While above an eagle sails. Then I'd like to be that eagle, Or a creature on a hunt.

OUR RESPONSIBILITY TO THE NATION By RUTH HAM MERSTEIN The large gray vessel steamed toward New York harbor, its tapering steel sides gleaming in the sunlight. Aboard it, eager passengers huddled together, waiting to get a glimpse of the famous New York sky-line. Suddenly, someone shouted, There She is. There's the Lady of Liberty, and all eyes turned toward the colossal statue with her arm majestically outstretched. She stood as a symbol to these people-as a reward for their courage, faith, and determination. For you see, this proud, stately ship was the Gripsholm, and its passengers were once the prisoners of our ruthless foes. Yes, the colossus of New York harbor was a sight dear to these wearied travelers. It stood as a doorway to the home which they had missed for so long a time. It welcomed them to their home-this blessed land, America. Could we possibly know what joy these people must have felt to be home again after the perils they had encountered? Could we realize how much they appreciated the many blessings which our country had given them? Surely not, for these thoughts would be too deep for us to grasp. They were thoughts of those who through suffering and loss had come to know a real love for this sweet land of liberty . Undoubtedly, there are many of us who do not fully realize what a privilege it is to live in the United States. We cannot imagine how indebted we are to our nation for the opportunity of free-living. We are definitely responsible to our government. Therefore, let us ask ourselves, What are our responsibilities to this nation? First of all, as we are given the privilege of voting, why not make use of it? It is estimated that thousands of people avoid the ballot boxes every year because of indecision, belief that the election is unimportant, and, in many cases, downright laziness. Is this the way of democracy? Certainly not. We must not feel that primary elections are not worth the trouble of voting. Quite the contrary is true. It is in these elections that we have the privilege and responsibility of choosing upright and honor- able citizens as candidates. We must realize that every election is impor- tant. Since we are given the right to choose leaders, it is the duty of every citizen to go to the polls and select those capable and worthy of the honor. As citizens of this great nation, we should be willing to contribute to its financial support. By this I mean that we should pay our taxes willingly and cheerfully. Surely the small amount of our incomes which the govern- ment takes is little or nothing compared to the great projects by which the government has benefited this country. We should subscribe freely to the purchase of War Bonds and War Chest donations, for it is our job to finance this war. Men are giving their lives, the least we can do is to lend and give our money. The greatest of all responsibilities is to possess national pride. Our flag and National Anthem should stand as symbols of our love for America. This love should lift us above selfish greed. It should protect us from a desire to profiteer. It should teach us to avoid waste of our natural resources. It should create in us a feeling of responsibility to those who follow after us. Let us not condemn the mistakes of the past, but instead profit by them in the shaping of a new and better America for succeeding generations.

Sponsors Each Tuesday afternoon, Junior Red Cross members are busy in Room 302, winding yarn, knitting, and sewing. Yarn, sent by the local Red Cross, is knitted into six-inch squares, which are sewed together to form afghans. More experienced knitters work on mufflers and sweaters. There are also branches at Wade, one of which sews under the direction of Miss Trotter. This group has made a number of outfits for babies. Boys there under the direction of Mr. Gillilan, have made a number of games to be distributed by the Red Cross. The purpose of the group is to turn out finished material from what is sent by the local Red Cross which in turn distributes the articles to our boys wherever they may be-in camps, in hospitals, on the fighting front. In this way the members do their bit.' , Fit' I y - one FIRST AID Sponsors I EVILLIAMS I M155 SULLIVAN As another contribution to a speedy victory in our war against the axis, Southwest is instructing seniors in First Aid. The primary purpose of this training is to prevent accidents by making the student conscious of the possible result of any slight injury. With this knowledge, he will be able to stay on the job when he takes a position in civilian or military life. Learning how to care for a victim of an accident or of sudden illness until a physician arrives is another task of the student. Now, since America has a critical shortage of civilian doctors, especially in the rural districts, it is sometimes hours before a physician can reach the scene. Proper care in these cases may mean lives saved. At the end of this half-year course. eligible students are awarded the Standard Red Cross Certificate in addition to the credit given toward graduation. qrA1,1,p Row One: Elizalmeth Quick, Alberta Thornhill, Ellen Vellios, Ruth Shires, Dorothy Sczodrowsky, Rosalie Zarho, June Flynn, Ann Vtfilliamson.

What college should I attend? How much will it cost to go ? Have I an opportunity for a scholarship ? If any of these or similar questions are bothering you, why not join the College Club? The primary purpose of the organization is to inform the student about the various phases of college life. The club maintains a file which contains much of the desired information, and members often make oral reports on college topics and present them to the club. Many outside speakers, college graduates or students, address the group on various interesting subjects. In fact, no query which a high school boy or girl needs in order to choose wisely for himself goes unanswered. But this is not the limit of the club's work. Due to the heavy burden which has fallen upon the Student Council, the College Club has taken upon itself the added responsibility of compiling the names of former Southwest students now in the armed forces. As new names are added to the list, new stars are placed on the service flags which hang in our auditorium.

Through a study of their language, culture, and heritage, the Pan American Club hopes to achieve this goal. Every other Thursday in Room 209, this club meets to hear talks prepared by club members and typical Latin American music or to see movies of trips to the Latin American countries. This year outside speakers from Ecuador and Puerto Rico gave interesting talks about their native lands to the members. On April 14, which is Pan American Day, the club presented for the entire student body a program on the purpose of Pan Americanism. A quiz, Latin American dances, and lilting strains of Spanish music were the chief attractions of this enjoyable auditorium session. Through these activities, it is the hope of the Pan American Club to develop a deeper appreciation of our southern neighbors. Row One: Donald Sundmacher, Ann Stokes, Gladys Leilich, Ruth Hammerstein.

The Anderson Chapter of the Junior Academy of Science is an organi- zation which Southwest High School is very fortunate to have. VVhere else could the scientilically minded students have the opportunity for study and research along the lines of their individual problems? From these experimenters of today will come the scientists of tomorrow. Because of the gasoline and tire shortages of the past two years, it has been impossible for the club to engage in any outside activities. Con- sequently, anyone planning to join must have a Worthwhile project of biological nature. For such students the school's well-equipped laboratories are open. Among this year's various projects have been colchicine hormone treatment of tomato plants and nutritional experiments made upon small rodents. Anyone entering one of the laboratories before or after school hours is very likely to see one of our junior scientists diligently working on his project. He is perhaps unknowingly preparing himself for his future responsibility, for his task will be that of safeguarding the nation's health. l 1'f1 tl -righl BIRD CLUB Sponsor MR.

The year's at the spring And day's at the morn: Morning's at seven: The hillside's dew-pearled ! The lark's on the wing The snail's on the thorn: God's in his heaven- All's right with the world! This lovely thought by Browning expresses perfectly the feeling expe- rienced by members of Southwest's Bird Club, as they sally forth on their morning hikes. They trip lightly through Tower Grove or Forest Park on their quest of interesting birds. Competition in identifying large num- bers of species by their color markings, song, and habits adds to the interest and enjoyment of the trips. The club also collects nests of various birds and has in its possession some specimens that are rather rare. Again this year, as in other years, it is sponsoring a birdhouse building contest for the entire school. The houses are judged on practicability, comfort, and safety, more than on beauty. The purpose of the club is to create public interest in bird life and so to help protect it. The members regard these feathered creatures as their friends, and their activities as assistants in bird walks sponsored by the St. Louis Bird Club oders them an opportunity to educate the public along this line. Fifty-nine AVIATION President Bll.I., COOKSTON An organization that is certainly in step with the times is the Southwest Aviation Club. With the growing importance of both B civil and military aircraft, the interest of high school boys in aviation has proportion- ately increased. If one should join the Balsa Buzzards las the boys of the club have named themselvesl, he would find this air-minded group covers all possible phases of aviation. Besides merely discussing the latest developments of flying, the group enters aircraft spotters' contests, builds airplane models, and holds classes on design and construction of models. The club is at present working on a super speed model of a prewar French racer. With this scale model the club hopes to wrest the honors for the fastest model plane from Beaumont, present title holder. Row Une: Bill Cookston, Richard Beers, Robert Mayer, Joe Schenberg.

The English Club, founded in January 1943, restricted charter member- ship to Twos in order to provide the younger students an unrestricted opportunity for active management. During the fall semester of 1943 advanced students were welcomed by the progressive Threes. Club activities to date include Miss Cordell's captivating introductions to interesting books in Southwest's library, Mrs. Thompson's fascinating presentation of Mama's Bank Account, partial production of magazine features for Twos, securing lists of recommended current books, lively debates. and spirit- ed discussions. Fu- ture plans contem- plate additional talks by outstand- ing speakers and di- rect contacts with other high school English clubs. ful? GIRLS' GOLF Sponsor MISS ZOOK The age-old Scot- tish sport of golf has officially invaded Southwest, for now we have not only a boys' club but a girls' club as well. The members meet to learn and to en- joy this excellent game, this antidote for the Worry and trials of modern life. When the biting winds of winter blow. and snow and rain keep the girls from the parks, they gather in the gym and there practice putting and driving. When spring comes and the sun shines, they load their golf bags with brassies, drivers, mashies and putters and go to Tower Grove Park where they continue their practice. Later, after numerous hours of work, foursomes of girls with approximately the same ability form. and the golf course at Forest Park becomes the scene of operations. Row One: Mary E.

The dictionary says that badminton is a game similar to tennis, played with shuttlecocks on a court forty-four feet long by seventeen Qsingle courtl or twenty tdouble courtl feet wide with a net five feet high. But what are shuttlecocks? We turn quickly to s and find a shuttlecock to be a cork stuck with feathers which is to be struck by a battledore for sport. This leads us to the b's where we find that a battledore is an instrument, with a handle and a flat part covered with parchment or crossed with catgut, used to strike a shuttlecock in play. As we still know very little about the game, we decide to visit the club. Far be it from us to criticize Mr. Web- ster's dictionary, but we believe he should have added that it is a game full of action and fun - a game that is thoroughly enjoyed by the girls of Miss Sullivan's Badmin- ton Club. . 1. -is- GIRLS' BOWLING Sponsor MISS WILLIAMS Sometimes, when girls get together, they accomplish very little, al- though they talk a great deal. This, however, is not true of the Girls' Bowling Club. These girls devote their time to action rather than words and seek to develop skill and master the technique of this fascinating game. As a result, many of them may boast of high averages, averages that may well wake envy in the hearts of some ot' our boy bowlers. This year the club has encountered an unforseen difliculty-the pin boys are few in number. In spite of this shortage, due to the war, the Girls' Bowling Club, sponsored by Miss Williams. is uncomplainingly carry- ing on.

A member of Southwest's Boys' Bowling Club made that one! This club, which is divided into teams. meets once a week after school. Its purpose is primarily for enjoyment. A spirit of comradeship and friendly rivalry prevails among the members as each team strives to out-do the others. and each member tries to top the league. John Errante, Lee Hyde. Ernest Koestering, Richard Neupert. George O'Neal, and Jerry Winterton brought victory fer their team, the All Stars. Gus Ilattile with 152, Jerry Winterton with 149, and Dick Neupert with l-18 gained the coveted honor of top bowlers ot' the league for the fall season. Due to the increase in the cost ot' bowling and to the fact that many boys are working after school during the war emergency. the membership ot' the bowling club is fewer than formerly.

In time of war our people realize to the fullest extent the necessity for physical fitness. Strong bodies mean strong fighting men and a civilian population which can combat disease and withstand the deprivations which war brings. VVhat pleasanter method of achieving strength and health can there be than swimming? The girls of Miss Sullivan's club know that swimming is great fun. They know, too, that it brings relaxation and healthful exercise. The Swimming Club meets every Monday afternoon at the Y. W. C. A. Here, the beginners learn the fundamentals of swimming-breathing, kicking, floating. More advanced girls practice new strokes and various dives. The third class, the full-fledged swimmers, work to pass life-saving tests. But whether they fiounder around or glide through the water, the girls are developing strong, healthy bodies. Six!

Perhaps they are fishermen. No, you are wrong, they are members of Miss Mee- nach's Dramatics Class, and those words are stage terminology. The class, made up of people who are interested in the theater from many angles, study, write. cast, and produce plays of many types. One such is the pantomime, a favorite with the students and a type which has great value in the study of acting. The one-act play is also very popular. The fall class presented A Christmas Fantasyn, an original efort which gave the group practice in play writing as well as play acting. The spring class with its presentation of A Date a la Shank's Mare showed great histrionic ability. Many of the stars of our senior play get their start under the direction of Miss Meenach. Those of them who really have stardom in their eyes hope to go on to bigger and better productions on Broadway. in Hollywood. or in radio. However, these are not the only ones who gain in the dra- matics work shop. Those whose goal is keener appreciation of the Thespian art join the class. Others whose desire is to gain poise, grace, and self- confidence are among the group. No matter what benefits they may be seeking, the students who meet in Room 413 seven times a week, working and playing together, enjoy every minute of the class in dramatics.

One of the outstanding' features of our musical presentations has always been the dance numbers. In these we see the results of hours of patient practice on the part of the participants, all of whom come from the ranks of the Creative Dance Group. Aside from contributing to the beauty of our stage productions. the dancers themselves benefit by their membership in the group. They learn to appreciate beauty of sound, rhythm, and movement. They develop skill in fitting movements to rhythm and sound. At the same time they benefit physically from the wholesome exercise which dancing affords and from the grace which develops as a natural consequence. Members also learn what maker up effective costuming both as to line and color. The club affords wholesome activities for girls who have a little leisure time after school.

It was the first show of this kind to be given. and all were filled with curiosity. Finally, each person became settled, the lights dimmed, the orchestra struck a few chords, and the show began. It began with the tinkling of bells, timely music, and the twinkling toes of the girls in the Skaters Waltz. They immediately captured the attention and interest of the audience. and held it throughout the remainder of the performance by the rest of the cast-and truly a star-studded cast it was. The audience was entertained by such talented singers as the ever famous Don Archibald and Emma Jean Kraemer. It heard songs sung only as Helen Cataldi, Betty Rose Petri, and Mattie Sciuto can sing them. It thrilled to the beautiful soprano voice of Delores Hascher. It recognized the Girls' Glee Club as a perfect supplement to the gifted soloists. But singing was not the extent of the abilities of the cast. Indeed not! This was aptly proved as Ellamae Berblinger and Betty Smith proceeded to charm the audience with their lovely, graceful dancing. It was proved in the response shown to the skillful tap dancing ot' Gloria Eggeman and I:'1'r1l71u lluzr the poised dancing of little Jackie Stemmler. Special homage was paid to Lester Allen, a Southwest alumnus, now a member of the armed service. His military tap dance confirmed the rumor that he cannot be surpassed-even by Fred Astaire. The rhythmic dancing of the girls' Skaters Waltz and the exquisite Winter Ice Ballet, which featured Ellamae Berblinger as soloist, was acclaimed faultless. Spectators will long remem- ber the inspiring performance of Jacqueline Harper and her accordian. of Melba Ritchie and her violin. It will always chuckle when reminded of the hilarious antics of Bob Osbourne at the piano and the side-splitting readings of Lavern Tancill. No one will ever be able to tell this audience that there is a band better than the Southwest Swing Band, which is under the leadership of Bill Leeds. Not soon will it forget the natural unassuming manner of Charlie Crowe as master of ceremonies. Truly, it will never forget a moment of the show from the time the curtain opened until the last chord of God Bless America. played by our school band. died from the hall. The Southwest Revue of 1943 was a complete success! But this could never be said if it hadn't been for the hard work of Miss Hachtman and Mr. Monachesi, working with Mr. Smith, Miss Thym, and Miss Skinner. About their splendid co-operation and of those others who worked with them not enough can be said. To all of them we owe the success of the show.

This newest publication is a handbook intended to help students, new and old, to become more thoroughly acquainted with their school. By describing clubs, courses, traditions, and events it gives an excellent picture of Southwest in an impersonal light. A detailed description of courses and an explana- tion of graduation and college entrance requirements are given. A committee of students. recommended by English and mathematics teachers, helped in the planning, preparation, and distribution of the book. Material on courses and clubs was contributed by members of the faculty. The handbook will be revised from time to time as changes make it necessary. The Roundup welcomes the Steer.

In fact, the prospects were all but encouraging as the new fall term began. Coach Williams, Southwest's versatile mentor, had inherited the Herculean task of molding a Winning eleven from four lettermen and a handful of unproved candidates. As the Weeks of strenuous training rolled by, however, the squad began to shape into a promising crew. Facing the strongest opposition the district could offer, the green-clad Steers wound up the season with a respectable 666 percentage. In the Public High School loop, the Longhorns tied for second place with the Roosevelt Rough Riders. All in all, the 1943 football season was a successful one for South- west, and the completed record of six triumphs, three defeats and a tie is one of which it may be justly proud.

SOUTHWEST 19-CENTRAL 6 For the entire first half the Steers played defensive football in an effort to check the vastly underestimated Redwings . Trailing six to nothing at the start of the second half, the Longhorns retaliated with renewed vigor. Slowly, the heretofore impregnable Central line began to crumble. Glenn Schultz, Southwest's right halfback, stemmed the tide with a sparkling 64-yard sprint. The balance of the scoring was done by speed merchant Earl De la Roche, who struck pay-dirt twice before the final gun. ' SOUTHWEST 0-ROOSEVELT 0 The confident Greens stormed into the Roosevelt tussle an undefeated eleven, riding upon the crest of three successive victories. The Rough Riders, on the other hand, had lost both of their previous engagements, and consequently aroused no pre-game fears in the Longhorns. An enthu- siastic throng of fans, anticipating a crushing Southwest triumph, turned out for the arc-light tilt. The game was so bitterly contested that neither team made a formidable threat for the first three periods, and it wasn't until the fourth quarter that the Steers drove to the Roosevelt ten-yard stripe, only to die in the shadows of the looming goal posts. Ninety-four SOUTHWEST 32-CLEVELAND 14 With the tricky T exploding in all its fury, the Longhorns had a field day at the expense of the Cleveland Dutchmen . Elusive Earl De la Roche, ably assisted by backs Paul Oliver and Glenn Schultz, accounted for three of the five touchdowns, while lanky Bob Ebinger, Southwest's left end, snatched two touchdown passes, one from Quarterback Oliver and the other from Halfback Schultz. The Dutchmen were totally mystified and managed only to tally twice, once on a second-quarter drive and once on a third-period aerial. SOUTHWEST 0-BEAUMONT 19 In what was undoubtedly the most important league game of the entire season, a rugged Beaumont team crushed all hopes of a Southwest cham- pionship. Fumbles and other bad breaks were encountered by the Long- horns in their desperate eiort to overcome the Bluejackets. The Steers were able to hold their own throughout the first quarter, but a second period fumble by Southwest ignited the Bluejacket fuse. Moving behind a stalwart forward wall, the Beaumont backs sliced gaping holes in the Longhorn defense. The Northsiders tallied first in the second quarter when Halfback Russ Steger penetrated the goal line. The subsequent scoring was a result of Quarterback Sharkey's 50-yard gallop, and a fourth-period pass. The Longhorns made numerous efforts to strike back, but a stout Beaumont defense smothered every attempt. SOUTHWEST 39-McKINLEY 20 Reviving from two stunning setbacks, the Longhorns outscored the Goldbugs in a wide-open contest, featured by long runs and frequent scoring. A few brave and shivering fans provided the cheers, as a myriad of Southwest and McKinley backs raced up and down the gridiron. Earl De la Roche wore a deep furrow in the turf with his four touchdown jaunts. Glenn Schultz, Paul Oliver, and Jack Varble also figured in the scoring. Schultz's 85-yard runback of a pass interception was the longest of the game: Oliver's educated toe was responsible for three point con- versions, and substitute end, Varble, tallied on a short pass. The Gold- bugs scored once in the second quarter and twice in the last half. SOUTHWEST 7-SOLDAN 19 In their last league encounter of the season the Steers were unable to hold that Tiger . Displaying considerable power in the opening minutes of play, the Longhorns drove to the Tigers' one-yard marker, but here their drive faltered, and Soldan took command. After an exchange of punts the Tigers roared into action. A sustained Soldan thrust was climaxed as Quarterback Carol Wood smashed over the goal line early in the second quarter. The Longhorns, determined to stay in the ball game, bounced back later in the first half. After marching into Tiger territory, Earl De la Roche shook himself loose and waltzed 36 yards for Southwest's only touchdown. However, the rampant Tigers pushed across another score before the half terminated and added their final tally in the second half. Q, ..

POLSTER Captain BILL- JENNINGS When football bows out of the sports spotlight in November, an athlete's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of basketball. For three months the cagers rule the interscholastic kingdom, providing all the thrills, spills. and chills, synonymous of every competitive sport. After sharpening their aim with weeks of patient practice, the Long- horn five stormed into a tough schedule. The prospects were brilliant. Coach Polster could boast of six returning lettermen, including towering Bill Jennings, the high school whiz kid. Even the modest coach himself smiled with satisfaction. But alas and alak. mid-term graduation crept up all too quickly. and its toll was devastating. Literally thieved from the team were Bill Jennings and George Maricic, both lettermen. This loss is made even more significant when one considers the prominent role that blushing Bill has played in Southwestls basketball history. He has been a mainstay of the quintet for four seasons and has twice been named on the All-District squad. One wonders whether Southwest will ever N1'11o1u-six again be gifted with such a hardwood demon as was Ichabod Bill Jennings. Still in all, the 1943-1944 season was far from futile. Besides scoring league victories over Blewett, Central, McKinley, and Soldan, the Long- horns distinguished themselves by reaching the finals of the Normandy Holiday Tournament. Ut might be noted that they lost out to the sharp- shooting five of the Bismark High School, who are now the Missouri State Championsj In the Public High School race Cleveland set a torrid pace and easily won the crown. The Steers Hnished the season in a two-way tie with Soldan for third place, and the boys who deserve credit for their line showing are: Bob Oliver, Bill Jennings, Robert Waeltz, Joe Kirwin, Milton Parks, and Richard Mullins. In previewing the prospects for next year we see that practically every position must be plugged with talent from the B and C teams. Coach Polster has only the highest praise for the younger boys, and it is from these ranks that he must summon next year's stars. B BASKETBALL TEAM Sponsor MR.

A RIOMARDAIFJULLINS For the second consecutive season Southwest reigned King of the Public High School tennis realm. The Green and Gold breezed to their second trophy year behind the slashing rackets of Bob Ziervogle, first singles, Captain Bob Oliver, second singlesg John Martin, third singles, and Richard Mullins and Allen Tiarks, doubles. This quintet completed the season with the amazing record of 27 matches won and only one lost, an achievement to be sincerely proud of. The Longhorn netsters stampeded to total victories over Beaumont, Central, Cleveland, McKinley, Roosevelt, and Soldan. Blewett also fell easy prey to the champs, but Bob Light of the Griffins scored the only setback of the season. His opponent, diminutive Bobby Ziervogle, illustrated the real championship hustle before submitting to his rangy rival. However, this lone defeat was in fact a moral victory as it best elucidates the fight- ing spirit of the 1943 Tennis Champions. This fire was instilled in every member of the squad and helped to carry the rest of the team through an unmarred season. The pair of Roberts, Ziervogle and Oliver, were members of the 1942 championship team, while Mullins, Tiarks, and Martin were newcomers. The prospects for '44 are rosey. Bob Ziervogle, the tiny boy with the wicked racket, and John Martin, a talented sophomore, are returning to form a solid framework around which Coach Wm. Gerber can fashion a formidable live.

Vcmfi ltllh awvaur llW5f Perhaps a trumpet fanfare would be most appropriate in introducing the Public High School Baseball Champions for 1943, our own Southwest Longhorns. Their stellar diamond play was well deserving of the hand- some trophy which now adorns the athletic showcase. It is the second baseball championship which Southwest has won in its brief history. Before hanging up their gloves, the 1943 baseball champions had con- vinced opponents and supporters alike of their diamond wizardry. Their complete season's record of eleven wins and five setbacks is not evidence of their real ability, for four of their five defeats came at the hands of St. Louis U. High, always a riddle to Longhorn nines. In league play the Steers unsaddled every rival except Beaumont, and it was this solitary loss which necessitated a post season playoff with McKinley. Although the few practice games with non-league contestants were none too convincing, the Longhorns soon proved their mastery of the diamond. Under the reins of Mr. Williams, who plugged a vacancy in the coaching department, the team gathered confidence and momentum with each game. Glancing back at the season's scoreboard, we see that the Longhorns christened their league competition against Soldan, whom they soundly walloped five to three. This game was high lighted by the splendid mound work of Harold Miller, a rookie righthander with an assortment of pitches. Ninely- nine Lanky Bill Jennings did the chucking in the next three contests, as the Steers took Blewett, McKinley, and Central in their stride. Roosevelt was the next challenge to Longhorn supremacy, and only some fancy hurling by Miller saved the day. Coach Williams, entering the Beaumont fray, was grinning with pride. It was at this point, however, that the inevitable upset occurred, and the Steers were branded two to nothing by the Blue- jackets. Angry, but not discouraged, the Longhorns wound up their regu- lar schedule by stampeding Cleveland twelve to one. It was an ideal warm-up session preparatory to the league play-off, just a week away. The climax of the 1943 season came in a thrilling three-game play-off between Southwest and McKinley. The series was played in Carondelet Park, and the coveted trophy rested upon the outcome. Slim Bill Jennings, the Longhorn's ace mounds-man, pitched the Steers to triumphs in the first and third contests, winning the inaugural one to nothing, and the finale two to one. The Goldbugs managed to score a four-to-two victory in the second encounter, but only in vain. The Steers displayed a genuine championship caliber in the series, and their spirit and hustle will long be remembered. The squad was truly a well balanced nine, with hitting, pitching, and fielding prowess. The leading sluggers and their respective averages were: Carl Hunike-395, Charlie Pozza-380, and Bob Danner-326. The pitch- ing department was as sound as the proverbial dollar. Bill Jennings, the elongated basketball star, did most of the mound chores but was ably assisted by Harold Miller and Calvin Kiefer. Other members of the 1943 championship squad Were: Oliver, Marici, C. Bauer, G. Bauer, Cantoni, Craig, Watson, Ward, Daniels, and Hancock. TRACK Coach JAMES KENNY The crystal gazers predicted a dismal season for the 1943 thinclads. This was perfectly natural in the face of the serious losses suffered by the Longhorns: many lettermen had been lost via graduation, and charter track coach, Lou Kittlaus, had been transferred to Harris Junior College. Perhaps the soothsayer's doleful forecasts might have come true had it not been for fate's timely intervention. To fill the vacancy in the athletic department came sports-wise Jim Kenny to lend his coaching genius. It was under his capable leadership that the forty-three cindermen soared to new heights, romping home with second-place laurels in the annual track and field meet. Last year's Field Day was probably the most thrilling and certainly the most memorable in Southwest's track history. Not forgetting the chagrin they experienced in '42 when Roosevelt nosed them out of second place by a scant two-point margin, the Steers were determined to settle the score. As it turned out, by edging out the Rough Riders for second place by 2114, points, they practically reversed the results of the previous season. Beaumont captured the title for the second successive year and was unchal- lenged for top honors. The points accumulated by the big three were: Beaumont 11715, Southwest 731Q, and Roosevelt 7114. In striking contrast with past track squads, there was no one division which was noticeably outstanding. Instead, the team displayed steadfast point accumulation in piling up enough points to merit its second-place award. The senior division was not the powerful juggernaut which topped the field in '41, but it managed to muster 3015 valuable points. The stars of this division were Earl De la Roche, Ron Middleton, and Kenny Weber. One Hundred Row One: Joe Michniok, Nathan Martin, Morty Lindeman, Bob Roebke, Don Spackler, Ray Ellrich, Carl Olfe.

Kenny, Earl De la Roche, Glenn Schultz, Ron Middleton, Howard McC'reary, Don Archibald, Jack Overturf, Mr. Gerber. Earl broke the tape in the 100-yard dash, the 220-yard low hurdles, and anchored a second place relay quartet. Ron Middleton took a first in the shot put and a third in the high jump, While Kenny Weber tied for first place in the high jump. In the junior division Glenn Schultz, Leonard Behrendt, Howard McCreary, and Gale King sparkled in their events. G. Schultz was the busy bee of the juniors, tackling a first in the shot put, a second in the 440, and lifth in the 100 yard dash. Leonard Behrendt thrilled every South- west rooter with his agile pole vaulting, and handily won in this event. Howard McCreary placed second in the high jump and fifth in the broad jump, while Gale King followed Schultz in the shot put. The Goliath-sized midget gladiators rounded out the total. Ted Pepplc leapt to iirst place in the high jump, as Paul Jones and Jack Overturf placed second and third respectively in the shot put. As a whole the 1943 track team fought tirelessly, and every South- wosterner may boast of its record.

Who are those lonely figures, whose stooped silhouettes may be seen every Tuesday Cweather permittingb after school in the vast open spaces of Forest Park ? Upon close observation one can discover golf bags draped around their shoulders. Hmmm-Caddies? Hardly, Mr. Brew, sponsor. would explain, they are members of Southwest's own Golf Club. Indeed, they are a hardy troupe. Wielding brassies, mashies, spoons and putters, they weather sand traps, bunkers, and water hazards. Under Mr. Brew's instructions many have developed into excellent golfers and perhaps some day will humble such famed fairway artists as Bobby Jones, Byron Nelson, or Sammy Snead. This proud team, which defeated Beaumont in one of the season's most important matches, began practicing last April and ended this June by placing: third in the all-city meet. The following team members partici- pated in this conclusive tournament: Don Nies, Jim Vellios, Rich Michniok. Richard Overbeck, Bob Bauer, and Joe Michniok. ii U Cm , i A li: Kp' .

POST WAR WORLD By WILLIAM CONWE LL Many people are saying at this very moment how sorry they feel for our generation, for the generation which has to face so many deplorable conditions after the war. They say that many of us will be jobless and hungry, they say that we will have to face a terrible depression, and perhaps, even the results of that formidable enemy-inflation. Maybe these people are right-what they say, in all probability, will come to pass -but we need not worry over this sorry state of affairs if we equip ourselves to cope with it-NOW! Responsibility is the key-word to success in this world today. Tomor- row, no matter what the conditions, responsibility will remain the key- word. If we build up habits of responsibility now, and we owe it to ourselves to do so, we shall have equipped ourselves sufficiently to cope with post-war conditions. Many of us are working now both in school and outside school. In both places, we are building our foundations, our primary references. If we do not establish our reputations in these two places as being responsible persons, we shall have tough-sledding in the post-war world. Now is the only time we have to prove to the world that the youth of today are the responsible citizens of tomorrow. What does responsibility mean? How do we go about acquiring this important key to the door of success? Responsibility means many things. It means industry, concentrated energy, trustworthiness, reliability, de- pendability, many things which too few of us have acquired. It means buckling down to work, hard work, no get-rich-quick schemes. It means capacity for independent action, firmness of will. It means acting for one's self by one's self with a bee in one's bonnet. It means fair and thoughtful attitudes toward the problems which arise and the expendi- ture of honest and industrious effort in solving them. I can only add that in the post-war world there will be a more careful weeding out process in business than ever before, and if we have not awakened to a realization of our responsibilities by then, we shall be cast out with the weeds , and be among those persons who may be begging for food. May this never happen to us, and it won't if we do not shirk our present obligations. Then our future, as responsible citizens in the post- war world, will shine forth like a beacon for all men. ,4!x1ifw' - ' l if ' M15 I' 'r ,fi N, . , , :Ik feimmw ' I f ag, f .1i.lil'!9' xlwfi .

Many students, 1881 to be exact, trudged back to school. They came from factories, farms, playgrounds, offices, stores, hospitals, and summer schools. Those who had been here before found the building much as they had left it, except for a new paint job and three new service flags hanging in the auditorium. Glenn Schultz, president, presided at the first meeting of the Student Council. At this meeting, the council decided to devote itself to war activities during the coming year. These activities have included: collecting old jewelry for bartering uses overseas, holding a bond rally, in which the school was divided into four teams, sponsoring an auditorium session which honored Herman Minor, killed in actiong collecting money to buy cookies for the local U. S. O., and helping to finance a temporary soldiers' memorial for the city. October. The Roundup received top rank in the M. I. P. A. year book contest, while the Pioneer gained first place among the N. S. P. A. entrants. The tennis team won the fall tennis title. Colonel Adamson, who was stranded with Rickenbacker in the Pacific, was the first of a chain of celebrities to drop in on us. He spoke on the self-discipline and self-control displayed by the men on that raft and urged us to develop these traits. Southwest students assisted in the annual War Chest solicitation. Report card grades were much lower this time with only thirty-four making the super-honor roll. And so, on this cheery HJ note, the students welcomed November and Open House. November. Freckles of Our Gang fame, now a sailor, told the students of the horrors of Guadalcanal and urged them to win the war on the home front. In reply to his stirring speech, we exceeded the ninety per cent war bond sales necessary to fly the Minute-Man flag. Major Martini, flying ace, spoke at the flag-raising ceremony. The students voted to name the plane which was bought with our war stamp purchases, Flying Steer . Southwest football team placed second in the high school tournament. The 1Sevens held the Pumpkin: Prance for the Eights to bring November to a jivey conc uslon. December. The hard work of the music classes made this year's Musical Revue a huge success, in spite of the fact that Miss Meyer, music teacher, had joined the Marines. Our school was one of the first to open its doors for a night of Fun , in an effort to combat juvenile delinquency. The choir caroled at Union Station and at Amertorp. After a Christmas auditorium session, school closed for a welcome ten-day vacation. January. Comprehensive reviews followed by the graduation of the January class brought the first semester to an end. Ed Spence then took over the presidency of the Student Council. One of its first activities was to sponsor jeep rides for the War Bond purchasers. These rides resulted in one of the greatest tragedies Southwest has ever suffered, because, on one of them, Martha Tarantola and Marie Middleton were injured. Martha died the following day. February. The new group of Sevens elected their officers with Don Spackler becoming president. The National Association of Christians and Jews conducted an auditorium session. March. Mr. Gerdt of Washington, D. C., spoke on the dangers of alcohol and tobacco. In observance of the birth of Mr. Wilcox, who gave Southwest its organ, Mr. Oscar Jost, a fine organist, gave a classical recital. There were two St. Patrick's Day dances: the Shamrock Shag, given by the Eights in honor of the Sevens, and St. Pat's Patter given by the Southwest P. T. A. Miss Meenach's Dramatics Class gave a colorful auditorium session with gas rationing' as the theme. Dr. E. Stanley Jones, missionary to India, gave an inspiring talk on utilizing religion in our daily lives. The following week Mr. Rush presented a Junior Town Meeting program with the question What has youth to offer to the solution of the negro problem ? for its subject. April. Mr. Robbins Strong, who returned to America on the December trip of the Gripsholm, told of life in an internment camp. The Spanish classes gave a Pan- American auditorium session. Hello Day, long contemplated, came to pass. May. The Senior Play, Junior Miss, was a hilarious success. More comprehensive written reviews enabled students to check on their progress. June. Another graduation brought a new group of students face to face with the responsibilities of life. Thus ended Our Year.
