SUUTHWEST HIGH EEHUIIL I KANSAS CITY, IVIISSUUHI I VOLUME XIX E D l E Tll Many years ago young Nathan Hale faced his execu- tioners with the proud words, 'fMy only regret is that I have but one life to give for my country. We have no doubt that the- boys who have gone forth from Southwest High School and have died as did Nathan Hale, for their country, did so in as generous and as gallant a spirit as he, although denied, perhaps, that final moment of glorious eloquence. In recogni- tion of their supreme gift to those of us who still live to enjoy the freedom they died to preserve, we humbly dedicate to them this Sachem of 1944.

In 1tS shadow, we pause f to pay homage to her, who lived rather briefly but with grace and gallantry. pp 533 V . , all , te'l' . . - -. - , e,lc.el it trll There is a juvenile pngle which runs, +5Q'!i!-1ff!!ig'j-A es.A p acea 1 If she had a broomstraw Stuck in her hat, You'd think 'twas a feather! She's like that. Well, Miss Ashe was like that. Only it wasn't her hat. It was something much more elusive. She was eager to see the world and she did see a lot of it-Mexico, Canada, Alaska, and, as an exchange teacher, Hawaii . . . but it didn't need these far-flung journeyings to spell adventure to Miss Ashe. .The shuttle of her imagination was ever busily at work upon the loom of the ordinary, weaving the incidents of every day into the shining fabric of adventure. She was always interested and interesting. Her friends were wont to say that every trip across the street was an adventure to her, and she had the knack of making others see it that way, too. Because she was a gifted conversationalist, she shared with her friends and her students an awareness of the dramatic element inherent in each little daily incident. Nothing was ever dull to her, or to others when she talked of it. l There was a lilt to her living that will always impart to our memory of Miss Ursula Ashe a certain poignancy not unlike that with which she herself savored life.

We are preparing ourselves to help when our turn comes. We are conscious oft a deeper than ordinary significance in the activities which are part of our education. We know that they also serve who only stand and wait, but that soon there will be end to waiting, when we shall go forth to serve in more specific ways. Meanwhile, in this book, we have tried to portray life as we at Southwest know it.

In affec- tionate memory, this yearls edition of the Sachem is dedicated to our alumni who have given their lives in the service of their country. Let us now turn our thoughts to a world at peace-a peace which can be made enduring only by adherence to such ideals, a peace for which these boys have made the supreme sacri- fice. The following lines, taken from a student's dedicatory sonnet in a former Yearbook, express a hope that epitomizes, I believe, the fondest dream of all youth today: May Youth and Friendship with flags unfurled Provide a peace triumphant to the earth, And by their fine ideals and their worth Implant and form a better, nobler world. One generation after another has been told that war is hell and that peace is the ultimate goal of all man's striving. Surely, then, after the struggle in which we are now wholeheartedly engaged, a devotion to peace should transcend all other considerations for mankind. Indeed, to establish and nurture. peace is to render an unforgettable service to all unborn generations. This is our responsibility. Principal Page Eleven GEORGE PETERSON Vice-Principal MARJORIE S. PATTERSON Educational Counselor Page Twelve CLARA B. MCDONALD English Latin Miss Clara MacDonald, for seventeen years teacher at Southwest High School, retired this year from the school faculty. She is respected by all for her scholarship, admired for her gentle manners, and beloved for her friendly, understanding attitude. The war makes it necessary for her to postpone still further the realization of certain long-cherished dreams of travel, but Miss MacDonald has accepted the situation with her usual good grace and is finding, with Stevenson, that The world is so full of a number of things that make each day a joy. We hope that she will continue to be as happy as-no, much happier than kings are nowadays. X Q, . SARAH HELEN CAROLYN ATWOOD JOHN H.

The denouement of Pearl H21fb01' came in our sophomore year. But Our lives haven't changed very much. We have engaged in many activities not before necessary but now vital to the war effort, but on the other hand, we the whole we have had much the same lives, the same opportunities as those before us had. And, perhaps, in this, too, we also serve. Our high schools exemplify much that is characteristically American. Perhaps the greatest service that We of high school age can render is to obtain, SENIOR BUSINESS COMMITTEE Standing: Lyons, Westmoreland, Poynter, Danneberg, Davis, Jones.

True, there was less gasoline. More of us have obtained jobs, securing them more easily. But on before going forth to take an active part in this war, an education upon which to base our peace-time living later on. The war-time record of former Southwest students who are now in uniform is prov- ing that such an education is no mean springboard into battle.

Managing The Government The Student Council, under the guid- ance of Mr. Cannon, Miss Haren, Miss Hutchison, and Mr. Milton, seeks to determine the needs and wants of the student body and to work in the best interests of Southwest. The first semester officers were Dun- can Marquis, president, jack Robinson, vice-president, Dick Hawkinson, secre- tary, Eleanor Churchill, treasurer, Dun- ham Walker, sergeant-at-arms, and Bob Zachow, critic. The senior representative was Georgia Westmoreland, the junior, joe Stevens, the sophomore, Rosemary Robison, and the freshman, Phil Klein.

Rather than seeking to develop eloquent ora- tors, outstanding athletes, or great scholars, the Hi-Y strives to make reg'lar fellows out of the boys, so that they will play the game of life with determination and courage. Mr. Gordon E. Wesner is the sponsor. This year, the Hi-Y has greatly ex- panded, and has tried more than ever to reach as many boys as possible. Today it has the biggest membership list in its history. It has furnished a club room numerous games to occupy the members leisure moments. The program presented, ranging from sports talks to the discus- sion of the Good Neighbor Policy, have always attracted the interest of the boys. Movies, too, provide entertainment. In keeping with its program of physical fitness, the club has weekly basketball or baseball games, in which the boys not only develop themselves but also have fun. All in all, Hi-Y is succeeding in its program of developing boys into healthy, well-rounded personalities.

Under the direc- tion of Miss Dorothy McLeod and Miss Jane Joyce, upperclass advisers, and Miss Flora Linn and Miss Sarah Helen Ander- son, freshmen advisers, the club seeks to stimulate leadership and develop well- rounded personality. Besides being a social organization for the girls themselves, the club engages in Page charitable work and service activities.

Though the family jalopy may not get the work-out it did in former days, the boys and girls in the club are seeing to it that the principles and practices of careful motoring do not disappear from the memory of youth. At bi-monthly meetings the con- struction and operation of the automo- bile are illustrated and discussed, thus giving the members an opportunity to become better acquainted with the motor car. Today, however, besides learning the fundamental factors of safety in driving, something must be included about the influence of the war on automotive travel, and the ensuing complications. Therefore the club is paying particular attention to first-aid in driving, learning how to avoid accidents, and how to meet them when they occur. Thus, under the sponsorship of fMiss Hortense Schaller, the Drivers War- Safety Club is teaching its members safe and intelligent driving, in preparation for the day when cars will once more crowd the thoroughfares. Page Ninety-three Hestian Club The girls of Hestian, which is named after Hestia, the goddess of the hearth, strive to become more skillful in such feminine pursuits as sewing and cooking in preparation for the day when they will have hearths of their own to tend. They also engage in charitable work, such as making afghans for the Red Cross and toys and Scrapbooks for poor children. Miss Frances Whitmire is the sponsor.

The students of South- west have a right to feel proud of the fine play exhibited by the gridmen and the excellent coaching by Coach Louis A. House. Starting the season with only one letterman, Ken Danneberg, the inexpe- rienced Braves met powerful opposition in the Olathe Blue Eagles and went down to defeat by a score of 18-0. The following week the gridmen opened the league season at Ruppert Stadium with the East Bears as their opponent. After scoring in the first few minutes of play, the Indians saw East push over two second-period touch- downs to take the lead at halftime. After several second-half scoring Coach House Coach Mann Football and Track Second Team Football attempts, the Warriors pushed to the East one-yard line with only two min- utes remaining. But on fourth down, Danneberg's plunge was stopped and the Indians took a 12-6 loss. Undaunted by the disheartening defeat the week before, the inspired Southwest gridsters took the field against the Knights of Southeast. After taking the ball on their own 48-yard line, the Indians marched down the field for a touchdown and six points, with Danne- berg going over. In the third quarter the Southwest left end, Don Nickell, blocked a Knight pass in the end zone for a safety and two more points. Mean- while, the Braves' line was performing brilliantly in checking the Southeast offense. The final Indian tally was made when Danneberg broke through the right side of the line and sped 45 yards for a touchdown, making the final score read 14-0. Coach Cohlmeyer S. C.

On the second play of the game, Cen- tral's Bill Sidebotham went 48 yards for a score and the first of three Blue Eagle touchdowns. Although making one second-period tally, the Southwest offense wasn't functioning as in the previous week and the Indians expe- rienced their second league defeat. The outlook was dim for the game against the first-place, unscored-on Northeast Vikings. But the Indians showed new spirit and pushed over a score while holding the eventual league champs to a 6-6 tie. Outstanding in the game was Don Nickell's 62-yard run after intercepting a Viking lateral. The play proved to be the tying tally in what was really a moral victory for the Indians. Encouraged by stopping the Vik- ings, the Braves pounded the Westport Tigers, their next league opponent, 20-13. In winning their second victory, the Warriors showed Indian followers FOOTBALL the real Southwest athletic spirit. Journeying to Ward High the next week for a non-league clash, the South- west -gridmen added another scalp to their belt with a 19-0 victory over the heavier Cyclones. All three tallys were made on plunges by Ken Danneberg. ,With the Paseo Pirates as their final opponents, the Warriors closed the sea- son victorious by virtue ofa 21-13 win over the Corsairs. The highlight of the game came when George Knappenber- ger, big Indian tackle, intercepted a Paseo pass and lumbered 85 yards for 21 SCOIC. At the close of the season, three Southwest boys received second team awards on the league coaches' all-star team: Don Nickell, left end, George Knappenberger, right tackle, and Ken Danneberg, captain and left half. In recognition of his services to the team and his ability as a field leader, Ken Danneberg was elected honorary captain by his teammates. Page Ninety-nine CAPTAIN DANNEBERG KEN DANNEBERG An outstanding field leader as well as ball-carrier. Ken received the captaincy of the all-star second team and was elected captain by his teammates. GREG BALDRIDGE This stocky lineman saw plenty of action in league games and stopped many enemy thrusts from his guard position. BILL BEARD Playing at end position, Bill proved an adept pass-snagger and a strong defensive player throughout the season. JOE BYARS Seeing considerable action near the end of the year, Joe was a sturdy line-backer and intercepted many enemy tosses from his position at left half. CHARLES DORMAN A husky lineman, Chuck showed him- self an alert defensive player and a capable ball-snapper. For his play he received an honorable mention all-star ranking. JACK HALPER Playing at the halfback position, this junior backfield man saw a lot of action. Hug, a speedy runner and able blocker, will return to next season's squad. JIM JACKSON This red-headed end performed brilliantly in the opening games, breaking up oppos- ing end runs and catching passes until suf- fering a knee injury at midseason. NORVAL JACKSON Norval proved his worth as defensive halfback time and again, and showed himself to be a powerful blocking back on offense. GEORGE KNAPPENBERGER Receiving a second team all-star berth, George was an exceptional defensive player and the author of an 85-yard run against Paseo. BILL LIENTZ At tackle, Bill opened holes in the oppos- ing line throughout the season. He proved stubborn on defense, and few enemy gains went through his position. BOB LOUDERMILK Bob saw his share of action all season and contributed much to the team's suc- cess from his tackle position. JIM MARSHALL A plowing fullback and sturdy line backer, Hustler Jim was a constant threat to the opposition. A junior, he will return next year. JACK MOORE Jack's outstanding ability as a defensive end and as a pass-snagger won him the plaudits of the league and an honorable mention all-star rating. DON NICKELL A second team all-star, this sturdy end was an able pass-receiver and strong defen- sive player, besides racing 62 yards with an interception against Northeast. CLIFF WARD Always a threat to the enemy, Cliff was a capable lineman He will be available for next season's squad. BOB W'ILKINSON Shifting from halfback to fullback, Wilk distinguished himself by his line plunging and tackling during the season. HUE WOLF A A pile-driving halfback and a capable passer, Hue was always a threat to the opposition and was rewarded for his work by an honorable mention all-star award. MATT ZIMMERMAN Playing his first year of football at South- west, this big guard showed outstanding ability in the line. Page One Hundred QT sc-4... -. , - . -.--.-... Y , , ' W.

SECOND TEAM FOOTBALL With the most outstanding record in the history of Southwest's second squads, the 1943 second team displayed a stone-wall defense coupled with a powerhouse attack to take first place honors in the city second-team league. The Bravelets were undefeated, untied, and unscord-on in play throughout the gridiron season. Ably coached by Mentor Frances W. Mann, who last year tutored the sopho- more squad, the young Warriors scored decisive victories over Southeast, West- port, Central, and Paseo. Opening the season against the sec- ond squad of Southeast on the latter's field, the , Bravelets whitewashed the Knights, 20-0. Bill Mackay proved out- standing on offense for Southwest, scor- ing all three touchdowns. Against the Westport Cubs the following week, the seconds displayed a brilliant attack to down the Tigers 25-0. The third vic- tory in as many starts was gained by the Bravelets over the Central Blue Eagles' second team by a 6-0 score. Closing the season in a whirlwind of offense, the Southwest second squad downed the Paseo Pirates, 33-0, in a tremendous dis- play of power. This outstanding second team record of 1945 points toward an outstanding first team outlook for 1944. The following boys were awarded second team letters: Bill Ackenhausen, Ed Von Adelung, Rusty Baltis, Bob Bruce, jim Buckley, Cecil Chappelow, Bob Crandall, Dick Gram, George Holden, Roger Hurwitz, Bill Mackay, John Martin, Franklin Nichel, Bill Saf- fell, Austin Shartel, Dick ,Sime, Bill Wald, and Jim 'W'hitacre. joe Bryan served as student manager of the squad. Page One Hundred Three Through The Hoop Finishing in the highest position in which an Indian cage team has placed in four years, the 1944 Southwest High School basketball squad boasted a league record of five wins and two losses. Ably tutored by Coach Melvin Bishop, the Braves tied for the runner-up spot in the league race. In pre-season contests, the Warrior quintet upset the powerful Olathe Blue Eagles, 24 to 21, downed the Alumni, 27 to 235 but lost to Ward High, 21 to 11, and to Rosedale, 26 to 21. Opening the league season against the Westport Tiger squad, the Indians staged a strong second-half attack to edge out the Bengals, 22 to 20. A cold Southwest team met a strong Northeast Viking five the following week at Mason-Halpin fieldhouse. In a purely defensive battle the Braves suf- fered an 18 to 13 loss. Recording the highest one game total in three years, the Indians overpowered an undermanned Southeast squad, 51 to 26. Jack Moore, Brave center, set an individual scoring mark for the season by hitting the meshes for 22 points. Second place hinged on the battle the following week between the East Bears and the Warriors. With six squad mem- bers figuring in the scoring, the Braves outfought the smaller Bears to down the East five, 23 to 17. Hampered by the ineligibility of three regulars, the Paseo Pirates proved an easy foe for the Southwest juggernaut. With Bill Swope leading the scoring, the Indians staged a big first period to win, 35 to 30, and to move into a deadlock for first place. The Warrior's championship hopes rested on their Auditorium battle with COACH BISHOP COACH MASTERS First Team Second Team the Manual Crimson on February 18. But it was a nervous Indian squad which took the floor, and when the final gun sounded, Manual was on the long end of a 32 to 27 score. In the final battle of the year, the Braves emerged victorious over a tall Central Blue Eagle quintet, 47 to 31. The win rounded out a successful South- west basketball season. The 1944 cage team was an outstanding outfit, with each member contributing his best to the success of the squad. Southwest, . Olathe Southwest, . Ward Southwest Rosedale Southwe-st, .

Page One Hundred Five CAPTAIN MOORE JACK MOORE Six-foot, three-inch jack proved the big gun in the Indian attack. He was named at the center position on the league second all-star' team and finished fifth in indi- vidual scoring. For his leadership, his team mates elected him honorary captain for the season. JACK HALPER One of the smallest members of the team, Hug showed equal prowess on offense and defense. His shiftiness and adeptness in scoring helped spark the Indian vic- tories. jack's abilities were recognized with an honorable mention all-star rating. BILL HATCH In his first year on the team, Bill per- formed ably from a forward slot. His rebounding and tip-ins made him a con- stant threat to the enemy and his general play earned him an honorable mention all-star award. FRANK HOFFMAN A returning second team letterman from last year, Frank held down a guard posi- tion on this seasOn's squad. He played an aggressive game throughout the season, and his steady performance made him a big cog in the Brave attack. JIM JACKSON Playing his second year on the varsity squad, this red-headed junior performed at a guard position. jim proved a capable ball handler and timely scoring threat throughout the season. JACK LEATHERS A sturdy rebounder, jack played a strong floor game from his position at guard. In his second year on the team, jack showed deceptiveness in dribbling and exceptional accuracy in shooting. A junior, he will return to next year's squad. TOM LEATHERS Standing five feet eight inches, Tom proved an outstanding cagester at a for- ward position. A speedy team man, his smooth ball handling and fine shooting ability made him a worthy asset to the Indian squad. DON NICKELL Big Nick was one of the chief reasons for the Braves' success in league play. In his first year on the cage squad, Don showed himself to be a rugged rebounder and a threat on offense. BILL SWOPE Holding down a forward position through- out the season, Bill finished sixth among the league scorers. Bill's push shots accounted for a large share of the Indians' points and he was rewarded for his play by honorable mention all-star rating.

In matches played at Swope Park course, the defending champions, South- east Knights, took an early lead and maintained it until the final round, when golfsters hit their stride the Warrior to wipe out the lead and win by 16 strokes. The Southwest team compiled 1,300 strokes to Southeast's 1,316, while Central nosed out Paseo for third place. Tryouts for team positions were held at Armour Fields golf course, October 1, with Dick Silberman, Jim Neuner, John McEvers, and Harold Warwick earning starting positions by virtue of their qual- Silberman Neuner ifying scores. M. Rosenblum and Elliot Osiason were picked as alter- nates. Silberman, as a result of having turned in low medal in the tryouts, was named team captain. Steady golf by all members of the Indian squad made possible overtak- ing the Southeast team in the final outing. In this round Captain Silber- man turned in a 72, which proved to be the tourney medal. Warwick carded a 75 and Neuner a 77 to assure the team of victory. At the end of the fall season, Coach Melvin Bishop awarded letters to Har- old Warwick, Dick Silberman, john McEvers, and jim Neuner.

In a preliminary to Interscholas- tic competition, the tracksters engaged in the annual interclass meet, with the seniors emerging victorious. Opening at Paseo in the first of the dual meets, the Braves suffered a 36 to 55 loss at the hands of the Pirates. The following week the Warrior tracksters invaded Northeast and returned with their season's only scalp. With Dickey, Boucher, Moore, Rush, Gram, and Schrader copping firsts, the Braves smothered the Vikings under a 53 to 38 score. , A loss in the relay proved fatal to the Braves against the Southeast Knights. At the completion of 10 events, the score stood at 43-all, but the speedy baton passers from Southeast proved too much for the Indian quartet, and the Knights captured the relay and the meet, 48 to 45. On April 25, a third loss was regis- tered against the Warriors with the relay again proving costly. Leading 44 to 41 with only the relay remaining, the Indians went down before the East Bears, 46 to 44. Concluding the dual meets at Central, the Braves succumbed to the Blue Eagles, 54 to 37. In the city meet held at Southwest, the Indians failed to capture a first, and ended in the second division, as Paseo walked off with first honors.

Through the patient endeavor of the physical education department, headed by Miss Pusateri, the girls of South- west have received valuable help toward physical fitness. In sports, this yearis program included hockey, basketball, volleyball, swimming, baseball, and individual sports. The highest award in girls' athletics is the orange and black shield, which signifies the wearers' participation in six sports. They compete with various other Kansas City high school teams at the annual sports day. After attaining her shield, a girl works toward a star for it, which shows she has played on twelve teams. Each class has a manager who holds has Maria Pusateri Frances B. Richart authority second only to that of the instructor. The classes are divided into small groups, headed by squad leaders. Keeping of the attendance record and assisting in the gym office are the duties of the office assistants, selected by the teachers. Intra-mural activities are open to all, whether enrolled in gym classes or not. It is from these participants in after- school sports that the teams which rep- resent Southwest at the sports days are chosen. tai t Page One Hundred Fourteen J 1 i 5 1 1 1 l E L l l Y, ,4-fp,-,,... , 1 tm, Q SHIELD AND STAR WINNERS Top Row: Stauffer, Bergfors, Amick, Sylvester, Mohler, Bell.

Webb Technical Sergeant Captain Donald F. Payne Captain Robert Oberhelman Commanding William A. Story Plans and Training, S-3 Adjutant, S-1 h Sergeant Instructor A Model for the Future The Southwest Battalion of 1943-'44 has nobly supported the enviable record made in former years. Having had four Cadet Colonels and four Lieutenant- Colonels, Southwest has held one of the two top-ranking positions in the city for eight of its nineteen years of existence. The school has also maintained the War Department rating of Honor Bat- talion for twelve consecutive years, ranking first, second, or third for most of that period. At the annual Field Day inter-Bat- talion competition, Southwest has earned four first and four second place cups, and also three third place trophies. Six championship rifle teams round out the unequaled history of the unit. Page One Hundred Eighteen lall rs, mst ili- ed ?5v nd it o Q To the Southwest R.O.T.C. Battalion: This year of R.CP.T.C. training has indeed been a most successful one for the battalion as a whole. From the sophomores to the seniors, all have shown the spirit, initiative, and enthus- iasm necessary to produce a top-notch unit. The first-year cadets have completed their basic R.O.T.C. training and are now ready for the more advanced stages of training. They have become profi- cient in the first year's subjects but, most important of all, they have become accustomed to and have mastered the difficult aft of following, and are now prepared to shoulder the first responsi- bilities and duties of leadership. To the second year cadets, the non- commissioned officers this year, and the officers of next year, I want to say that it is a real pleasure and comfort to have had noncoms who are depend- able and who have enough initiative to see that the job gets done. You who will be the officers next year will under- stand this much better then. I know the battalion could not be left in any bet- ter hands than yours to carry on the traditions and honors of this year and of previous years. T To the officers of the battalion, to whom the great part of the credit for a really good battalion must go-it has been an honor and a privilege to have worked with and for you. It was a job well done. Best of luck to you and to all who may come after us. William Robert Poynter, Cadet Colonel, Kansas City Regiment, R.O.T.C. Page One Hundred Nineteen John J. Ross Robert E.

RIFLE TEAM We of Southwest may be justly proud of our showing in the field of rifle competition. Our R.O.T.C. team came out on top in the city match with a total of 1,054 out of a possible 1,200 points. A team of twelve fired this match and with three other marksmen, rounded out 3,272 out of 4,000 possible points, a good showing even if it was not good enough to capture the first rating among the Kansas City high schools in the Seventh Service Command match. Because of the excellent training given to the cadets, we are assured of con- tinued excellent performances in the future, especially since the boys are aware of the possibility of using this knowledge in a few years or a few months. Five of the six cadets, who were awarded gold blue-ribbon medals for the highest scores in the intramural match, formed the team that fired the Hearst Trophy match in March.

One of the features of the vocal music department is the girls' double quartette. Southwest was first introduced to them when they appeared as shebas in the Redskin Revelsf' Since then they have given several performances for the stu- dent body and have always been well received. The girls are often asked to sing outside of our own auditorium and their reputation as good entertainers is undisputed. The members of the cz cappella choir are all at least in their second year of music. They, too, receive many invita- tions to sing both in our assemblies, and for programs outside of school. Our choir can always be counted upon whether music is needed for the school play, the nativity, or the spring concert. The Girls' Glee Club also has taken part in the Redskin Revels and their music is always appreciated. The advanced chorus and freshman chorus complete the list of vocal music classes. All of the groups are under the direction of Mr. Robert Milton. Southwest is for- tunate this year in having Miss Kane as an accompanist. Page One Hundred Thirty-four I I I I I A.. .....,,.-.,,,., .

Page One Hundred Thirty-five The Balld A glance at the band's playing sched- ule gives Southwest students an idea of the number of performances which must be prepared for. Under the direc- tion of Mr. Zahn, the band has become one of the city's best. Hear them play and Watch them marching in their snappy uniforms, and you become proud to point to that band as Southwest's. Both members and officers are enthusiastic. Good fellowship is a fea- ture of the bandroom. Of course, this spirit is valuable in obtaining a band that really is a band. Only many hours of hard work result in such a har- monious organization. Marching drills and pieces must be practiced time and time again. Remember the mornings this fall when you heard the band play- ing on your way to school? They'd been there for over an hour-playing and drilling in the football field! The moral of this story is: Don't pass up an opportunity to enjoy the South- west band.

Mary Lou Proctor Concertmaster Carolyn Weiss President Southwesfs Crchestra If you happen to visit the orchestra at one of their fourth-hour rehearsals, donit be alarmed to see several munch- ing sandwiches between pieces. Enthus- iastic members of the band give up their lunch hours to play their instruments in the orchestra, too. However, several of the personnel having noon-day repasts during practice periods does not inter- fere with the quality of this organiza- tion's music. Many in orchestra have practiced years on their instruments. To hear them play you would think all had. Their music contributes to the beauty of Southwest's annual spring concerts, and they are often invited to play outside of school. Mr. Zahn proudly exhibits the young musicians' fan mail. One feature of this rather informal classroom is the challenging system. Ask any aspiring violinist of his attempts to become concert master. While you're questioning him also be sure to learn the date of their next public appearance. PLAYING SCHEDULE December 14-Tooters' Meeting March 9-N.E.A.

How- ever, backstage does not reflect this scene of relaxation. Anxiously the stage crew awaits the moment that requires a change of scenery. Hinges, screws, odd tools and bits of this and that are assembled to build representations of Italian streets or maybe a Chinese laundry. The correct lighting effects are sought for and the public address system must be handled with care. Not all of the work of our stage crew is done during the time the actors are on the stage. Long hours must be spent after school-planning, painting, and keeping the properties in order. When the plays are over they clean and sweep the stage. When our stage becomes a tropical jungle, or the cast of a play is seen skat- ing on a frozen northern lake, credit it to the stage crew.

H A Salute to the Ferry Command Traveling with the ferry command, Southwest visited canteens from Alaska to darkest Africa in the Redskin Revels of 1943, presented on December 10 and 11 in the school auditorium. To give a realistic touch to the play, WACS called the boys to their planes and received various reports throughout the produc- tion. Judy Channon, Shirley Corlett, Shirley Leitch, Helen Meyer, Sue New- comer, Barbara Parker, Eloise Shlensky, and Marian Williams portrayed these feminine radio operators. As the pilots left the airport for their first flights, they waved good-bye to relatives and friends ranging in per- sonality from wealthy Mrs. Van Astor to Scotty's girl friend Gertie from Brook- lyn. They were cheered on their way by T Page One Hundred Forty-nine Stouthearted Men, rendered by the choir and Glee Club. W'aiting at home, Harriet Harlow offered Bill Richardson's original compo- sition Prayer for a Pilot, and Patsy Kidd and Marilyn Woodbury lamented that They're Either Too Young or Too Old. Pilot Idaho johnson, stationed in Alaska, visited the canteen, where he was entertained by such celebrities as Mrs. Roosevelt, dramatic Miss Step, and blues- singer Lotta Moan. At a frozen northern lake, the choir, bundled in mittens and scarfs, harmonized on The Skaters, then watched a chorus of boys and girls cutting patterns on the make-believe ice. A change of scenery found Gene Ramsey bailing out in the wilds of Africa to find himself at the mercy of a band of savages. To his great surprise they proved to be a canteen swing band which began beating out some solid boogie rhythm. At a performance in a French-terri- tory canteen, Gene met WAC Mary Harper. Miriam Wolf and Mary Dowling played a piano duet and the girls' double quartet portrayed shebas, singing A Song of India. Mumbo jumbo, assisted by Hoof and Poof, mystified the crowd with his magic, and the audience roared when several members of the football team, introduced by ballet dancer Dora Lee Lane, came tripping out in ballet costumes, wigs, and painted cheeks. Marilyn Postma sang Stormy Weather and Judy Channon, as Cornelis Otis Tan- ner, and her assistants did Ballad of the Tempest. Shirley Carpenter, as Lily Lake, rendered an operatic version of Pistol Packin' Mamma, and the trumpet 'trio gave their arrangement of I Love to Whistle. Four of the shebas sang again, followed by a performance by Master of Ceremonies Don Rosen- blum. Al Cohen, in a voice suspiciously like Frank Sinatra's, vocalized until he collapsed. The laughter had just died down when Gene was called to duty, but before leaving he turned to the WAC from back home and sang Wait for Me, Mary. In Italy Tony Calderone and his pal, John Ward, were entertained by Kitty Walter and Jack Jackson singing to the accompaniment of Jack's hand organ. Percy Van Astor was found asleep in a Chinese laundry dreaming he was enjoy'- ing a radio broadcast from the States. Phyllis Connet, Bill Straight, Patsy Schraub, Joan Woodward, Dick Kriegel, and jim Buckley appeared in this scene. Upon awakening he finally retrieved his wash from laundryman Ling Poo and his grandson. To entertain Ronny O'Brien in an Eng- lish home, Marjorie Springer rendered a vocal solo and Peter Michael a piano number. Two American WACS, Virginia Giblin and Kathleen Kerr, gave their version of Pistol Packin' Mamma, calling it Revolver Flourishing Gracie. Taking the part of an English aunt, Eleanor Neal played Valse No. 6. After Ronny had sung for his British friends, an air raid siren interrupted their evening and they left to seek safety. In the shelter Joe Stevens called upon the children for amusement. In answer to his request, Eugene Hall played a piano solo, and Beverly Reardon did an amusing reading. james Hawes gave his well-received impersonation of Monty Woolley, and a boys' trio sang Christmas carols. Peggy Craven closed the scene by singing There'll Always Be An Eng- land. Again the play returned to the United States where several R.O.T.C. officers executed a snappy drill. The lights were dimmed and Gene iRamsey, now in South America, was oriented to that country's customs, dress, and dances. The Glee Club girls were Page One Hundred Fifty I 4 l iv Zn f Bill Richardson Orchids in the Moonlight, and fol- lowing the choirs version of Begin the Beguine, Georgia Westmoreland did a Brazilian tap-dance. As an inspiration to Southwest's myth- ical pilots and a tribute to America's real Ferry Command, the curtain closed on Southwest's third successful Revels, with the entire cast singing Onward Christian Soldiers. The production was directed by Miss Ruth Castle and Paula Jones, student director. Mr. Robert Milton supervised the music.

Grumpy was a gruff but lovable old criminal lawyer, Mr. Bullivant, who with his grand- daughter Virginia lived in a typical English home near London. One night Mr. Bullivant's nephew, Mr. Ernest Heron arrived unexpectedly. In explanation, he informed his uncle that his firm had trusted him to proceed from his South African office in a leisurely fashion to their London estab- lishment with a valuable diamond. A clever imitation of the stone would come under escort but he had the original. Grumpy was astounded. Wasn't his And they lived h a p p i 1 y ever after. Jarvis.

However he was pleased about Ernest's position of trust and an expected raise in salary which to Ernest meant marrying Vir- ginia. Other visitors at the Bullivant home included Dr. Maclaren and his wife, a talkative, overdressed woman whom Grumpy disliked. There was also the suave author, Mr. Jarvis. That night, as Ernest sat reading in the library, he was attacked and in the strug- gle which ensued rendered unconscious. The next morning, Grumpy learned that the diamond had been stolen. He and his valet, Ruddock, immediately set about solving the mystery. In reconstructing the crime, it was discovered that Vir- ginia's pretty maid Susan had been the first to greet Mr. Heron. She was sum- moned. 7 After much questioning, it was learned that, first, Ernest had tried to kiss her, secondly, he had told her she was beautiful, and lastly, he had plucked a camellia from his uncle's prize plant which Susan had tied with an 'air from her head. It was then that the two discovered there was no 'air', on the flower found at the scene of the rob- bery. Therefore, the bandit wore Ernest's flower. Susan was dismissed. It seemed that all her troubles had come from trying to make Mr. Keble, butler of Mr. Jarvis, jealous. In the meantime, Mr. Jarvis and Vir- ginia had both left for London, Virginia to visit a sick aunt. Mr. Bullivant decided to follow them and call on Mr. Jarvis certain that he and his servant had some connection with the crime. Virginia, too, visited Mr. Jarvis at his 7 apartment upon his invitation. As the thief of the Lawson diamond, this man had realized his one mistake-allowing Virginia to replace the incriminating camellia with a fresh one. Just being romantic, he suggested that she send him the flower because he has lost the other one. Virginia consented to do this and also see him off on his journey abroad. She left, assuring him that the flower would be sent by special messenger. No sooner had she departed, than a clever fence, Mr. Wolf, entered. When he learned of Mr. Jarvis' mistake, he refused to take the stone. Then Grumpy arrived and Mr. Jarvis deemed it pru- dent to hide. Failing in an attempt to rescue Mr. Jarvis by tricking the old gentleman, Wolf left in disgust. The special messenger arrived. Unable to withstand his curiosity, Grumpy man- aged to read the letter. Virginia still had the flower and had refused to accom- pany Mr. Jarvis to the place of his departure. She had grown suspicious of the flower with the hair on it. Grumpy allowed Mr. Jarvis to escape, and then returned to his home, where he at last encountered the thief. The play ended happily, with lNIr. Jarvis returning the diamond and leaving with some friends from Scotland Yard, and with Ernest and Virginia becoming engaged. Grumpy's thoughts returned to such troubles as having his chimney cleaned. The play, directed by Miss Ruth Castle, was both well received and well acted. Paula Jones assisted as student director, and Alberta Solomon as production manager.

Members of our eight much-esteemed literary societies approached our beloved edifice. Rain failed to dampen their spirits. The time of their eighteenth annual literary contest had arrived. For four consecutive years the Zend-Avesta had carried off the silver cup, the year before a particularly new and shiny one. All the clubs took part in the festivi- ties. The girls' societies had been worry- ing many weeks about the dress for the great occasion. In the past it had become the custom for the clubs to march in one by one and give some skit upon which their rather biased mem- bers had decided, the theme of which was usually that their particular club was bound to win. This year the Baconians rather con- fused the audience. At the end of the evening, many outside guests were still wondering just why the Zend-Avestas marched in cheering after they had shortly before entered dancing. The mys- tery has been solved! Those clever lads seen tripping across the stage chirping Zend-Avesta in melodious voices were not the Zend-Avestas at all, but those cunning Baconians. So there, we knew you all the time. The Ruskins, too, seemed to have some ill feelings against the Zend- Avestas-we wonder why? For one of their more brawny members came out and pushed a poor little Zend-Avesta down. But enough of such brutalities. The Laureans were more good-nat- ured. They had made out a will leaving something to each one of the societies. It was indeed very touching to see them, clad in checked jumpers, worrying about the proper gift for each of the others. Such useful gifts as hammers, files, and grass were left to their rivals while Laurean itself was presented a silver cup. Arrayed in white pinafores and spring dresses, the Sapphos arrived carrying several large flowers, each one repre- senting one of the societies. In the resulting flower show rejected blossoms were tossed, one by one, from the stage. Naturally, the large green and yellow flower remained as the winner. With pink flowers in their hair, the Sesames entered singing. Their banner was flourished proudly. Thalian, attired in pink and blue aprons, became a cooking school. Their original recipe produced a silver cup. The ingredients had been rather assorted. Anything from light bulbs to old manuscripts was thrown into the concoction. Eight of the Vedas, in white and blue, skated in, each one representing a dif- ferent society. After displaying their skill, one by one the skaters fell until only Veda was left standing. While these events had been taking place, the extemporaneous speaking and declamation contestants had been ner- vously chewing their nails. Their time had come! When speakers whose topics varied from discourses on Latin Amer- ican relations to a cutting from The Tell-Tale Heartl' had given their all for their respective clubs, the decisions were announced. The contest was con- cluded by the awarding of the cup to the winning society. Incidentally, the Zend-Avestas won- again. Pago One Hundred Fifty-eight Essay-Very Superior THE BOY ACROSS THE AISLE By Marian Clement There is nothing extra special about the boy across the aisle. He looks like any other boy, lean-muscled with crisp brown hair-crew cut, bright inquisi- tive brown eyes, browned skin, and an infectious smile, with Li'l Abner shoes and flashy Suspenders. He has strong, square, brown hands. Fearless hands holding a live grasshopper or frog! Deft, gentle hands that could become a surgeon's! Skillful hands, clever at building sailboats and plane models! Rhythmic hands pounding out Boogie Woogie on the piano! He doesn't talk much but, somehow, you always know exactly how he feels about things. Pretty poor! he says, or, if it is good- Zoot ! Casual! pronounced kaz you wal rhyming with Al-is his highest tribute to a very nice girl, a shining car, a good game, a nest of baby robins, a chocolate cake. He likes all gay and swiftly moving things, cars and planes, football and track, new dance steps, swing music, and girls-but never the same girl for long at a time. He likes an old dirty stiff- legged dog with one flop ear. If there are not too many people around, he likes to sing in a hoarse and rather tuneless voice. He collects stray animals, guns, and band leaders' autographs. The boy across the aisle does not like history. It is much too slow and tame for him. But he has the strangest way of popping up out of the pages of my his- tory book. Paleolithic, neolithic, interglacial, din- osaur, Heidleberg Stonehenge, Neander- thal, Cro-Magnon! The long hard words drag across the page, harsh and ugly as dead bones bleaching in the sun. Sud- Clegnly, l hear strange music and gig- glmg. I see the boy across the aisle, his zoot suit a fur sarong, his crew cut grown. long humming Boogie Woogie, stomping out a war dance for a group of laughing, admiring prehistoric maidens. Nimble as a monkey, he climbs the tallest tree. He looks out to the sea, the mountains, and forests that bound the little circle of world he knows, and he dreams of flying on wings like a bird's beyond the dark perimeter of that world. He is an Athenian with flowers in his curly brown hair, strumming un- orthodox music on his lyre to the despair of a long-suffering teacher. He shouts and laughs and dies at Thermopylae. He is a slave in a Roman market. Fearing neither gods nor masters, he puts one hand behind his head, swings his hips, and impudently mimics a Roman matron, provoking welcome laughter from a little band of forlorn C21Pt1V6S. He crosses the perilous Alps with Hannibal. An exhausted elephant drops dead. A horse and its rider fall from a slippery precipice. The boy across the aisle stoops to pick up a bright colored pebble and slips it into his tunic to take home to his little sister. He sniffs the clear, alien air with pleasure. With a cross of red cloth on his breast, he follows Richard the Lion Hearted, and tastes sun-ripened apricots for the first time in the land of the Holy Sepulchre. He hires himself to Columbus to sail Page One Hundred Fifty-nin a frail bark from Palos into the sun- set, across an uncharted sea. On a spring day, in the old Market Square at Rouen, fagots are piled high. The boy across the aisle elbows his way through a silent, gasping crowd to snatch a souvenir, a splinter of wood from the pyre or a shred of cloth from the robe of the Maid of Orleans. But his hand draws back across misted eyes and goes out in a salute, thumb and forefinger forming an O. Casual! murmurs the boy across the aisle. Whistling tunelessly through stiff frostbitten lips, he trudges through mud and knee-deep snow behind the bowed, defeated back of the Little Corporal, homeward from Moscow. Cold and hungry, he drills tirelessly at Valley Forge. The teacher is talking. Smooth, soft, musical words flow from her lips- cooperation, civilization, peace, toler- ance, world friendship, brotherly love. The boy across the aisle listens raptly -but not to her. He doesn't like his- tory. It is much too slow and tame for him. He hears a B-25 zooming low overhead. His square brown hands grasp imaginary controls. A healer's hands, a builder's hands, a musician's hands piloting a bomber! Dreaming, daring, dying, leaving the slow tame past behind, venturing into the unknown future, he has cleared the forests, climbed the mountains, spanned the seas. Now he flies the skies. Unknown, unnamed, unremembered, just any boy in any age, following remembered leaders, mis- taken leaders, lost leaders, great leaders, inspired leaders, vanquished and vic- tors, the boy across the aisle is history. .,,1 Oration-Very Superior A GOOD AMERICAN By foe Stevens January twenty-ninth, 1944, in a small city in Kansas, there died a Good American -what does that term mean to you? One who serves his country, the arts, his state, or his community? Not content with one such service, this man's life included them all. He served as a leader of the Repub- lican party. He was a friend, advisor, follower, and supporter of Theodore Roosevelt. More recently he organized The Committee To Defend America By Aiding the Allies. It was this good American's sugges- tion that resulted in the recent trading of fifty destroyers for some Atlantic bases. He served as a member of the Walter Page, Woodrow Wilson, and Page One Hundred Sixty l ,Q is '12 bw JS, 4 , 5-st VI .1 . w s Rockefeller Foundations.. He backed many philanthropic movements. But one could go on and on about his national achievements and not really touch upon why he was A Good American. For he loved his country deeply and was willing to serve her. A Good American. His vocation was journalism, his avo- cation literature. He was the owner and editor of the Emporia Gazette for almost half a century. His editorial What's the Matter With Kansas, urging to stop raising hell and raise crops instead, brought national fame to him and his paper. But he was more than a journalist. For finding his way into his true field by the analysis of human motives, he wrote biographies of such famous men as Wfoodrow Wilson and Calvin Coolidge. His spirit was indomitable, for one afternoon in 1926, although he had been stricken by a terrible grief, he sat down and wrote a heart-warming essay on the thing which was uppermost in his mind,-the death of his daughter, Mary. And the essay Mary White has already become a classic in American literature. And so for his literary and journal- istic work the Gazette editor was awarded the Pulitzer prize and was elected president of the American Society of Newspaper Editors. He was scheduled to receive a gold medal from that society in March of this year. Editor, biographer, father. A Good American. At home in metropolitan centers,.he was essentially a man of the plains, his roots deep in the Kansas soil. There was never a man more proud to Claim the sunflower as the emblem of his state. But he did more than brag about Kansas, he served her. He organized the Kansas Day Club which was insti- tuted primarily to fight political machines. More recently he led bond- selling campaigns. He was the sage advisor and close friend of many Kan- sas governors. About Kansas he once wrote, When anything is going to happen in this country it happens first in Kansas. Abolition, prohibition, popu- lism, Bull Moose, exit of the roller towel, these things came popping out of Kansas like bats out of hell. How fitting it is that this son of Kan- sas should die on the state's eighty-ninth birthday! Yes, Kansas is richer and will always be richer because of him. He served Kansas, he served his coun- try, he served his community. A Good American. Although he did serve and love his state and country, the softest spot in this great man's heart was for his own town, his neighbors, his wife, his family. He walked with kings nor lost the common touch. Perhaps-perhaps he would have taken some of the high, honorable posi- tions offered him if he could have taken Emporia, Kansas, along with him. None who knew him well could think of him apart from his wife. They were spoken of as Will and Sally. Never one nor the other, but Will and Sally. Sally helped him to gain success and without her he would have been lost. He was not too busy to rear a family and, although his daughter died at seventeen, his son, Will, jr., is now an author in his own right. Yes, he loved the homefolks. As the Emporia High School Echo said, Emporia was the hub of the wheel of his life. A wheel with many spokes. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you a citizen, journalist, philosopher, Kansan. I give you William Allen White, a Good American. Page One Hundred Sixty- And somehow these activi- ties, all of which continue to follow the pattern fash- ioned in a country at peace within itself and with its neighbors, far and near, have a new significance in this time of war. Their con- tinuance seems to indicate our determination to be equipped to return, when our present task is done, to the ways of peace, which after all are OUR ways.

As the older generation has constantly looked at us youngsters, and muttered in its beard, Tsk, Tsk, my, what's this world coming to? we of Southwest Life decided to probe into the problem of the up and coming generation. The staff selected as a model case Southwest High School of K .C., Mo. After exhaustive research we came to the conclusion that the graybeards should not have been asking What's the world coming to, but rather where it's going and Where we 11 all go if we don't mend our ways. The staff learned to its surprise that all high . Following is a verbal school students were not of the same Vaflety, Hilmely, all jitterbugging, half- baked, bramless fools, only 99.9999 per cent were. In reality, we found to exist several different types of characters, each with its own individual set of obnoxious characteristics. To you, our readers, and particularly to the Beard Mutterel-S of America, Inc., we present these exhibits, A, B, C, and D. Exhibit A: Here's a student complete with all the trimmings. He's the type that carries two pencils to class. Oh, yes, and he's the only one who, on the day we all fill out office information in trip- licate, brings a pen. You couldn't miss old A though. He learned to balance objects on his head and then comes to American history with not only the reg- ular text but Morrison and Commager or some equally extinct reference book perched high to defy gravity and green- eyed classmates. So, armed to the teeth Cthat's where he keeps his everlovin' library card handyj A ventures into second hour only to behold Exhibit B: True character. This misinformed mal- nutrite fairly foams with frothy facts. Tests,-he spurns them, and usually suf- fers from the familiar malady quizitus, which always seems to increase as exams draw near. Too bad he can't be more like Exhibit C: He makes a safe and sound land dullj straight M, At least he iS not like Exhibit D: the perennial mechanic. Aimed with blow-torch, hacksaw, ham- mer, and who knows whatever else, he stalks the halls with his suitcase.of t001S under his arm, looking for an innocent bystander on whom to test the strength of his hammer blow or the sharpness of his saw blade. The sudden disappeafancff of the school furnace recently .was attri- buted to his mania for mach1p6fY, but no one could prove a thing until the day he burned up a bolt- ? r 8 Southwest I.nife's Cwn Senior Aptitude Test QSomewhat Revisedj Test yourself on your ability to appre- ciate the Sachem.
