Q ,fr--N - 11, V' E, THE PUPILS of Southwest High School, are the heirs of the far-sighted men and women who have ctevetopecl our part of the city. the Country Club District, into a residential section acclaimed by city builders at Home and abroad as the finest in the world. We accept what they have provicieci for us and feet great pricle over our advantages. But, what have we to offer in gratitucle for what we enjoy? To tue privileged to work ancl play in such a community places upon us responsi- bilities. Our surroundings prove a distinct ad- vantage toward worthwhile accomplishment, toward making our lives successful. Therefore, let us rise above a passive appreciation of all the beauty about us, and, as we gain perspective, grow from a casual acceptance of it to a laeener sense of appreciation -f let us cherish the expres- sions of man,s art which have enriched our tives and the lives of the entire community f- and let us preserve them for posterity. g , if ' x JJ 1 'X T .9-' V s I 9 W V J V ' kv .E x 1 Wy, N VW 6.9192 lj!! u n K ' .

Educator . . . Friend On May 22, 1949, we of Southwest High School were immeasurably saddened by the death of one of our most beloved friends. During his seven years at Southwest, every- one loved and respected Mr. Peterson. As vice-principal, his guidanceand his kindly understanding of the students and their problems led to many a satisfactory solution and developed a spirit of good- will and co-operation. The memory of his inspiring leadership of the class of 1949 will forever linger in the hearts of its members. Throughout our high school life he was our leader, our guide, and our ever loyal friend. His faith in us was boundless, our devo- tion to him, ardent. His absence will leave an emptiness in the lives of both students and faculty. To this fine man and wise teacher, as a small expression of our respect and admira- tion, we humbly dedicate this book. 1 Qwiif ?

Southwest! Southwest! Ever onward Shall thy colors flyg Orange and Black to all are sacred, Radiant in the sky. Every son and every daughter Bears thy honored name, Far above all others always Thou shalt bring us fame. Southwest! Southwest! We are faithful, Proud in vict'ry's song. May thy banner always lead us On and ever on. G r GEORGE A. PETERSON Vi c e-Pri n ci pal MARJORIE S. PATTERSON Educational Counselor A. H. MONSEES Principal To the Students of Southwest: The present school term rounds out twenty-four years since Southwest High School was established. Through these years valued possessions have been acquired, improved facilities provided, increased opportunities for worthwhile activities pre- sented, and sound traditions built up, all of which have contributed to the pride we feel when we think of our rich high school experiences. Recognizing our good fortune and many privileges, we must now steadfastly resolve to acquire greater knowledge and appreciation of our cultural subjectsg to achieve mastery of skills that shall open to us occupations through which we may serve our home and our country with intelligence and prideg and to gain a broader understanding of the peoples of other lands so that we may contribute to the peace and happiness of the world. We shall then prove ourselves to be worthy of our educational heritage, and shall be rewarded not only with a sense of satisfaction and fulfillment, but also with the approval and respect of our generation.

Composed of the officers and the thirteen runners-up, this committee is divided into six sub-com- mittees, each under one of the elected officers acting as chairman of that com- mittee. Such problems as the senior prom, graduation, the senior gift, and the senior play are referred to these com- mittees. In their various meetings the committees discuss the projects on hand and, with the very able guidance of Mr. Peterson, the class sponsor, arrive at solutions which are believed to represent the will of the majority of the Senior Class. Without this representative body, management of the senior problems would be unduly difficult, therefore, the efficient functioning of the senior body is largely to be attributed to the hard working Senior Business Com- mittee.

Librarian Drum Majorette Band Clad in immaculate brown and orange uniforms, the Southwest Band, keeping time to the rhythm of a jaunty march with the even step of white shoes and the waving of plumes, always creates a thrill of pleasure in every Southwest student. Not only did these competent musicians serve and entertain the school this year, as in the Thanksgiving assem bly, but they also aroused interest in Southwest among the citizens of Kansas City by their fine performances in the Memorial Day parade and on Oklahoma Day of the American Royal. In addition to taking part in these events, the band played on the radio program It Pays to Be Smart, at a rally of Missouri University alumni, and at two school games. At the close of the year the band exhlbited its achievements at Southwest s annual Sprlng Concert They brought honor to Southwest by wmning a first division ratmg in the High School Band contest ln which they matched their skill with that of other bands of Kansas City schools This superlor rating cer tainly justifies the esteem 1n which the band IS held not only by the students but also by the faculty WJ M..

Suddenly at the signal, the many different instruments blend into a harmonious flow of music. Our orchestra is a constant source of pride, for it shows the skill and coopera- tion that can be developed in a high school group. To gain the perfect sound- picture, each member must be accurate in his timing and in blending his part. The orchestra has developed versatility, for the Redskin Revels the scene was set by a Sigmund Romberg Overture, and for the Christmas Vespers a solemn back- ground of hymns was provided by the orchestra. This year Southwest was especially honored in having Miss Nancy Nei- barger as concertmistress of the All- City orchestra, as well as of our own. The most spectacular exhibition of talent, however, is presented at the Spring Con- cert. Then the orchestra demonstrates the marked improvement made during the year. We owe our orchestra hearty support, for it is a prominent part of our school life and a fine example of cultural achievement among our youth.

This question, together with addi- tional issues arising under it, - such as What would be the ideal form for a World Federation, and Is the United Nations capable of handling the prob- lems of the atomic age, -constituted the National High School Debate Question for 1948-1949. Speaking on such topics requires research, logic, penetrating, argu- ment, and poise. All these qualities were displayed by the Southwest Debate Team, composed of fourteen students who were selected from the public speaking class. They upheld the honor of the school in dis- cussing the above stated international question of world .government at the debate tournament held here. Matched against crack teams from Wyandotte, Ruskin, Central, and Shawnee Mission, our debaters exhibited not only quick thinking and fine organization, but also clear perception and good cooperation. In addition to gaining the technique of argumentation needed in debating, the debaters also received experience in the capacities of chairmen and time- keepers. Of greatest importance to a debater is the acquisition of complete self-control on the platform and fair- ness to his opponents at the end of the battle of wits. Qualities like these, gained only through practice, will undoubtedly prove valuable in years to come.

Page 92 Reclskin Refvels As the orchestra began the overture, the excited murmurs of the expectant audience faded and the curtain opened on the 1948 production of the Redslein Revels. Against the rustic setting of a western ranch, the Three Echoes Trio , Al Kuraner, Don Higdon, and Ray Vos- kamp, greeted the audience. They were followed by Tom Hunt and George Morgan, who characterized an English and a French dude, respectively, and Don Handen, who gave radio imper- sonatlons. Trying to escape the vigilant eyes of the ranch owner, Bud Jeter, John Quinly and Jack Tannehill sent the crowds into gales of laughter with their black face routine, but sauntered off upon the entrance of a dozen giggling pickanin- nies, singing The Watermelon Song, and Virginia Orthwein, executing a spar- kling tap dance. When the Lazy River Quartet had shuffled off the stage after a take-off of the Mills Brothers, Ruth Reed sang Oh, What a Beautiful Morning. Dif- ferent moods of the ranch were presented by Gloria Gould, Barbara Kletsky, Lynn Kay, Arnold Mandell, Diane Fingerish, Marvin Rich, and Dick Smith. Returning from a hard day's work, the cowboys were next serenaded by Courtney Drumm and Ray Carter in an accordion and marimba duet. Next in line came nine cute riveters, cavorting to the tune of Rosie the Riveter. The Girls' Glee Club and Nelson Perkins, in the next scene, sang Tum- bling Tumbleweedsf' and a team of eight girls sang Buttons and Bows in a skit featuring twirling hoops, big bows, and bright buttons. After a vocal presen- tation by Pat Haas and Gloria Gould, and a violin solo by Nancy Neibarger, the curtain fell on the final number of the show, Tico Ticof' sung by the choir.

Jean Reynolds Instead of the usual comedy, the Senior Play of 1949 presented a more serious mood. It wove the tale of an old pro- fessor who, thwarted in love, but always faithful to the sweetheart of his youth, related the story of his enduring love to prevent two of his students from break- ing their engagement. As the last chord of the overture faded, and the house- lights dimmed, the parting curtains dis- closed the simple but charming garden of Professor Gaylord, located on the campus of Berkeley College, Berkeley, California. Here two gray-haired men, Professor Gaylord and his life-long of the Moon friend Professor Maxim, were just com- pleting their daily game of chess as the sun sank beyond the campus and closed another day of May, 1948. At the end of the chess match, Professor Gaylord told Maxim that he was leaving the shel- tered halls of Berkeley to live in the raucous work-a-day-world where he could at last fulfill his life-long ambi- tion to write books. Suddenly, Carol Clair, the pretty, viva- cious favorite student of Professor Gay- lord, entered the garden to return a book. After noting the melancholy beauty of the garden in the moon-light, the elderly men went into the house, and Clair was joined by two school chums, Alice and Gladys. They brought Clair the Gibson Girl costume she was to wear as the lead in an operetta. Clair decided to don the costume to show it to Professor Gaylord, but on returning to the garden, she met her fiance, Brent Carson, who asked her to postpone their wedding for a few years until he could earn enough money to care for his widowed mother, send his younger brother to college, and also support a wife. Clair, fearing a delay could only bring permanent separation, refused to wait, and denied that there was such a thing as enduring love. When Profes- sor Gaylord overheard her remark, he re-entered the garden and commenced to CAST Standing: Hur- witz, Maus, Cam- eron, Moorhead, Briece, McKee, Stark, Perkins, Shofstall, Jeter, Scott, Huff, Mor- gan, Reynolds.

In the garden which Betty Lou and jerry had named the garden of the moon, Betty's father persuaded jerry that he should release Betty Lou, so that she could continue her training for a musical career. Therefore Jerry re- nounced Betty Lou, claiming he no longer loved her, and the two lovers parted with angry pride. Unable to forget Betty Lou, Jerry remained at Berkeley as a professor and lived a solitary life. In the last act, set once again in May, 1948, the young couple, Carol and Brent, deeply touched by the Pr0fessor's story, were reunited and left jerry to dream in his garden of memories, while they attend the Senior Prom. Musing amid his flowers, the Professor heard the voice of Betty Lou. Stepping into the garden, Betty Lou, aged but still beautiful, told jerry that she knew the true reason for their separation, explained that she was forced to marry another man when her father lost all his money, and also dis- closed that Carol Clair was her daughter. So, after all misunderstanding had been removed, Jerry and Betty Lou started again to build their world of happiness. Thus, in an old Professor's garden, a crystal ball once caught the moon for two sweethearts, and held it captive for nearly fifty years, until the lovers were again united.

Opening the season with a non-league game against a powerful Shawnee Mis- sion team, the Indians from Southwest could not muster up enough steam to push over a lone tally, and finally emerged on the short end of a 38 to 0 score. Not to be discouraged by the previous week's defeat, the Indians were pitted against Southeast in the first league contest. Negotiating their first touch- down in the first minute and a half of playing time, the Indians went ahead to find revenge in soundly trouncing the Knights to the tune of 18 to 6. Trailing by one point, with only two minutes left to play, the Southwest eleven by virtue of a 25-yard run by Armstrong, and a one-yard plunge by Reese, forged ahead of the East Bears to remain there and to capture the game with the final score standing at 20 to 14. With the record still clean after three league tilts, the Braves next advanced to defeat a game but out-fought Manual team 20 to 0. McKee and Saunders led the scoring in this contest, the latter earning fame by virtue of a 50-yard touchdown jaunt. The fifth league game of the year found the Indians up against their tra- ditional arch-rivals, the Northeast Vi- kings. Both teams fought to a deadlock for the first three quarters of play, but early in the fourth Northeast set up a march which paid off with a six point tally.

In the opener with Central, Harold Michael led the way for the Indians by crashing over the chalk stripe from the 10 yard line and scoring the only touch- down of the game. A safety added two points, leaving the final score at 8 to 0. Challenging Southeast and the Vikings from Northeast in the next two games, respectively, the Bravelets crushed the Knights 13 to 2, while in the Northeast Championship tussle Jones passed to Stein for 6 points, leaving the closing tally at 12 to 7. In their next battle the Tribe kept a firm grasp on their championship pros- pects by downing the Manual second eleven 20 to 0, but had to work a little harder for the next 15 to 7 victory, at the expense of the Westport team. The last win of the season materialized as the Indians handed the East Bears a 15 to 0 defeat. To top off the season an overconfident band of seconds lost their final game to Paseo 7 to 12, but could look back upon a string of vic- tories sufficiently long to lay claim to the championship title.

OBC fe E OC oac win Rebounds and Sfwishes The Indian netsters under the guid- ance of Coach Bredehoeft for the first year, gavetheir all to the game, but nevertheless found the going rough, and ended in a not-too-glorious sixth posi- tion in the final league standings, by means of winning only two of eight league encounters. Working out their kinks, and shaping up for the coming league schedule, the squad played a series of six preseason games. Finding themselves on the short end of scores to Shawnee Mission, Olathe, Rosedale, Ward, Wyandotte, and Rockhurst, the Southwest quintet could, nevertheless, claim a steady improvement in their play as shown by the later very close scores. In the league opener the Tribe pulled the upset of the season by handing the over-confident Vikings from Northeast a 30 to 29 defeat. jim Loder was the high man for both squads with 10 points awarded to his credit. The next game of the season found the Tribe burying the Redbirds of Man- ual under a 34 to 16 onslaught and there- fore gaining their second and last vic- tory. Picking up from behind all the way, the Indians were finally forced to suc- cumb to the superior score of the West- port five and lost their third regular game 33 to 26. jumping off to an early lead the Braves raised false hopes for victory, but their premature seven point lead was finally overtaken by the Paseo quintet, and the Indians dropped the game 55 to 32. East's Bears handed the Southwest squad a defeat to the tune of the spec- tacularly low score of 21 to 17. How- ever, the contest was a good show of fine defensive work. The Central Eagles jumped upon the Southwest team for their first league victory. The Tribe could not seem to break a cold streak and fell under 29 to 22. In the final league game the Indians came within four points of overcoming the league leading Southeast team, but finally went under 34 to 30. The Tribe in playing one of the hottest games of the year handed the Knights quite a scare and for the want of only four points would have broken their unde- feated record.

Seconds Share Claiming an enviable record of five wins and two losses, the Southwest sec- ond team hoopsters under the new direc- tion of Coach Ewing, entered into a four way tie for the championship. The Bravelets won their first game at the expense of the Northeast Vikings, by a 53 to 21 count. Ade and Williamson shared high scoring honors, each netting 10 points. Keeping up their fine play, the squad downed the Manual five, 36 to 29. Toohey led the way with 12 points: Tasting defeat for the first time, the Southwest seconds were laid low by the Westport team, tallying 26 points to 33 for the opposition, but rebounding back to bury the Pirates of Paseo, with the Championship final score standing at 40 to 28. In the next game, fought out with East, the home quintet was found trail- ing by 10 points at the half, but paced by Toohey, the Braves bounced back to win 31 to 25. Duncan of Southwest fol- lowed closely on the heels of high man Toohey, with a total of 10 points, only two short of the high score. The Indian five again suffered a very close defeat at the hands of the Central Eagles, but made up for their loss when paced by Michaels and Williamson with 13 and 14 points respectively, they jolted the Knights of Southeast with a 45 to 52 defeat.

Takes Fifth Straight Title Starting off the season by taking an unimpressive third place in the annual Big Seven track meet, the Indians relied on Bill Gilges who placed first in the 880 yard run, and Dan Burt who took the second position in the 440, to collect all the Tribe points. Not to be discouraged by their medi- ocre showing at the Big Seven, the track- men forged ahead to win every dual meet, although the score at times seemed to give the team enough of a scare to add that extra little push needed to win. With the glory of four consecutive wins in the city meet by previous teams, the 1948 squad entered the contest with the burden of upholding the Southwest cinder tradition resting on their shoul- ders. And well they lived up to expecta- tions when in front of about 1,500 fans on the Southwest home field the Braves totaled 37 points to stack against second place East, who tallied 29. Central fin- ished third with 27. A1 King swept the century with the time of 10.5, and then placed second to Jim Saunders who ran off with the 200 at the time of 20.7. Dick Clay took a first place in his event by topping the 120 yard high hurdles in 15.7, as did Dan Burt by running the 440 in the good time of 53.1. The Indians captured four more seconds in the form of the medley relay, the 880, the 880 yard relay, and the shotput by Victor Brewer, which was Southwest's only showing in the field events. At the state meet held annually in Columbia, Dan Burt led the Tribe to a fourth place when he won the 440 yard dash, chopping .4 of a second off the old mark and consequently setting a new school record of 51.2. In the medley relay Southwest again conquered, the squad composed of Brewer, Saunders, King and Burt winning the event with the time of 1 :37.3. l Page ll4 ,I 1 ! I f Down the F airfwa Success was predicted early in the golf season and the team's confidence was bolstered greatly by virtue of the fact that when the golf tryouts were held on September 29 and 30 several members of the team broke either below or very close to par. With only two returning lettermen, Coach Ewing, who just this year took up his coaching duties at Southwest, was forced to start from scratch. Answering the call to the colors, over 25 golf enthu- siasts reported for the tryouts. Out of this number eight boys were selected to represent Southwest in the tournaments to follow. Four members of the team would play in the competition, while the four others would play as alternates. However, if an alternate's score broke lower than that of a regular in any one game, they immediately changed places. With all the preliminaries over, the members of the team, Dave Edwards, Roswell Eldridge, jim Larimore, Phil johnson, Ken Yunker, Fred Thompson, Hugh Buchanan, and Sherman Cohen, quickly mobilized for action. After the broken bits of putters and torn pieces of turf cleared from the air, the Indians, as expected, emerged victorious by win- ning every league match played on Octo- ber 9, 16, 23, and 50, respectively, at Swope Park course. The five members of the team to re- ceive letters for their skills were Dave Edwards, who also won the title of City Medalist, Roswell Eldridge, jim Lari- more, Phil Johnson, and Ken Yunker. The three other hard working members of the team were present at every match but did not see enough competitive action to earn the coveted US.

Early in the month of September just as the confusion of the first few days of school was beginning to subside, seven- teen ambitious racketeers retrieved their racquets and balls from amid the dust and moths to answer Coach Frank L. Stark's call. By means of an intra-mural contest, six victorious Indians emerged to repre- sent Southwest in the tournament to follow. The members of the team: Bob Boxer, captain, Dick Smith, Herb Irwin, Denny Bolte, and Doug Haines, quickly mobilized for action. The All-City tournament was held October 11 and 12, at the Rockhill Courts. Bob Boxer reached the finals in singles play, but was defeated by Southeast in the crucial contest, to give the warriors a second place in this event. In the doubles, Denny Bolte and Doug Haines reached the semi-finals, but were also defeated by Southeast. Dick Smith and Herb Irwin, who also played in the doubles, lost their initial match and were eliminated. The five participating schools were Southeast, Southwest, Paseo, North- east, and Westport. Page117 'Y ' 'Nw -.-va' I! sE?Sr2??fSi' i ' Y Girls Sports At Southwest, girls' athletics stress the physically, mentally, and morally sound development of the whole body- education through physical activity. The girls participate in five major sports when in season, hockey, soccer, basket- ball, volley ball, and softball. Three sports days, attended by the eight Kan- sas City high schools, are held each year. Hockey, basketball, and individual sports were the features of this year's sports days. The friendly rivalry among the girls creates excitement, enthusiasm, and an interest in the sports themselves. Hockey, a thrilling and' fast game, develops good team work, for playing on such a large field necessitates coop- eration. This game gives a girl endur- ance, coordination, and quick thinking. In basketball, always ranked as a favor- ite, the close contacts and need for a highly skilled game bring out good sportsmanship. After some practice the girls become quite adept at handling the ball and shooting goals. One must be alert, both mentally and physically, to play the game well. Soccer and volley ball are also part of the year's program. To top off the season, as spring ar- rives we get out our baseball bats, balls, and mitts, carrying on a national tradi- tion as American as a Ford convertible. Almost everyone likes to take part in a good softball game. Girls working for letters come out after school for any of these sports. Companionship, exercise, lessons in sportsmanship, and just good fun are always a part of these afternoon sessions. The variety of individual sports was one of the outstanding features of this year's program. There was horseback riding, ice-skating, and bowling away from school, and badminton, archery, and aerial darts here at home. A national interest in square dancing has arisen this year and has all the girls usashayin, 'round in a right-and-left grand. If you had ever looked into the gym on Thursdays you would have seen the girls learning new square dance steps and many interesting folk dances. The swimming program has always been something special here at South- west. Classes are held in a fine indoor pool of which we are very proud. Not only girls taking physical education have this opportunity, but also anyone want- ing to do so can take instruction after school. Beats the ol' swimmin' hole when it's 10 below outside. Many of Southwest's mermaids have become quite proficiant in diving and in the mastery of the different swimming strokes. Some of the underclassmcn have been working on endurance swimming. Their final record was fifteen minutes, which they claim could have been longer if they had had more time. This spring, Southwest was the scene of the big individual sports tournament. Girls from all the Kansas City high schools competed against one another in a wide variety of games of skill, such as ping-pong, archery, shuffleboard, swim- ming, and badminton. The whole picture is one of friendly competition, body-building sports, and education in getting along with people. Page 118 are if -f rf 4 4 X BASKETBALL TEAM Kneeling: Nancy Lebrecht, Nancy Gr:mes.

McNAY Regimental Plans and Training Officer A Year o The Southwest Battalion of the Reserve Officers Training Corps has once again set a record of enviable achieve- ments. This year a new program, estab- lished by the Army, was introduced and proved successful under the enthusiastic leadership of Sergeant Walter L. Hal- verson, who was transferred to South- west from Manual. Besides Sergeant Halverson, there was another member of the regular army assigned to Southwest for instructional purposes, Captain Allen F. Merritt, who became a favorite with the cadets. The new course of instruction included training, in drill, physical development, tactics, first aid, map reading, weapons, and military leadership. Special training equipment such as motion pictures, charts, and film strips were used to full advantage. The cadets marched in the Armistice Day parade and took a trip, sponsored by the American Legion, to the National Page Master Sergeant WALTER L. HALVERSON Sergeant Instructor Progress Guard Military Country Club, where every cadet had a chance to fire the high- powered weapons which the modern army employs. For the first time in many years, the unit presented an all-school assembly in which the crack drill squad was featured. In the R. O. T. C. Circus, the Southwest unit presented log exercises, an unusual event which proved to be one of the high points of the evening's entertainment. Other activities were the annual Govern- ment Inspection and the R. O. T. C. Field Day. Highlighting the social events of the year was the annual Military Ball at which Nelliesue Montaudon was elected queen. Thus, under the skillful guidance of Sergeant Halverson and Captain Merritt, the 1949 Battalion completed a Year of Progress which, with hard work, will culminate in an Era of Progress for the Southwest R. O. T. C. 122 To the Southwest R. O. T. C. Battalion: We, the members of the Southwest R. 0. T. C. Battalion, have many just reasons to take pride in our unit. The traditions of our Battalion have been upheld over a period of many years, and the achievements of the cadets of 1949 have added substantially to this record. This year, the program was entirely reorganized, and, consequently, many new problems arose. The primary objective of the officers and instructors, however, was to start work on a new Southwest R. 0. T. C., which, in years to come, would break all records. A strong foundation of extended good-will and co-operation with other school activities was laid. I am certain that, in the near future, R. 0. T. C. will, of its own merit, once again occupy its position as one of the basic activities at Southwest. Much of this success may be attributed to the man in the ranks, the average cadet who performs his task - and performs it well.- I have every reason to believe that the spirit of these cadets will continue over a period of years to form the nucleus of later units. The upper classmen have done, and are doing, a fine job of molding our organ- ization into one of exceptional accomplishments. I charge you to accept and execute the responsibility which is now yours-the responsibility for the future of the R. 0. T. C. at Southwest. To the officers, I wish to say that the experiences of this year spent in planning and executing the many activities of our unit have been very profitable and enjoyable. I am certain that the determination and spirit which you have demonstrated will continue to bring the good fortune which each of you deserves. However, nothing can be said of the success of this year's unit without mentioning the one man who inspired and brought about all its accomplishments, Master Sergeant Walter L. Halverson. This was his first year at Southwest, but, nevertheless, he made himself known to every student as one of the friendliest instructors at our school. He has con- stantly directed his efforts toward making R. O. T. C. one of the most important phases of Southwest school life. I know that the splendid spirit of the underclassmen and the inspiring leadership of the instructors will serve to make the ensuing years of the Southwest R. O. T. C. even more successful than this has been. Sincerely yours, John McNay, Cadet Major Page 123 Paul A. Larson Robert W.

L. Halverson, the Southwest Rifle Team proved that winning can become a habit. The team swept to the league title, bringing home the championship plaque with a 6-1 record. The boys went on to prove themselves real champions as they triumphed over the nine other Kansas City high schools in the city match. For their excellent shooting during the regular season, four Southwest marks- men were awarded berths on the All- City squad. They were Leroy Weeks and Paul Larson, second team, and John McNay and Robert Boxer, honorable Standing: Boxer, Buckler, Weeks, Larson, McNay. Spoor. mention. The Southwest boys were also highly successful in out-of-town matches, win- ning five and losing only two. Highlight- ing the Inter-City matches was the out- standing shooting of Charles Buckler, who fired 189 x 200 against Nevada. This is one of the highest scores ever fired by a Kansas City shooter in com- petition. Lettermen on this year's championship team were Leroy Weeks, Captain, Paul Larson, john McNay, Robert Boxer, Charles Buckler, and junior Robert Pol- lak, who should be a mainstay next year. George Morgan managed the team. Kneeling: Halverson, Pollak, Erickson, Curtright, Junior Rifle Corps N. . . This year, the third since the reor- ganization of the Junior Rifle Corps at Southwest, saw many boys making out- standing advancements through the jun- ior ranks of the National Rifle Associa- tion. The rifle range was in constant use, as the junior corps members showed a keen and enthusiastic response to the opportunity to develop their ability in one of America's oldest sports. Four boys gained the coveted title of Distinguished Rifleman. Attaining this highest medal not only shows patience and effort, but is also proof of excep- tional ability. The Distinguished Rifle- men were Robert Boxer, Paul Larson, John McNay, and Leroy Weeks. Also ranking high were Charles Buckler, Gale Curtright, and Robert Pollak, who won their Expert Rifleman medals. While many other cadets were busy meeting the requirements for the primary quali- fications and acquiring sharpshooter medals, they were aspiring to future membership on the Southwest Rifle Team. Master Sergeant W. L. Halverson deserves much credit for his efforts in helping to make the program a success. The officers for this year were John McNay ...... President Leroy Weeks . .

Iggy Yrs buffs ' 'W 'Mia 94 'Me Amy Sixty khaki-clad, dirt-stained young men creep slowly forward, every eye intent on their objective, a small hill about one hundred yards ahead. Suddenly a low drone is heard, and the shadow of an airplane glides through their midst. The sharp command, Take cover, echoes through the ranks and, immediately, each individual leaps for the nearest bush, thicket, ditch, or tree. Private Brown, whispers a dark-haired major, get your rifle out of the mud. Yes sir mumbles the accused, and pulls the weapon out of the shallow puddle. 3 3 He raises it to eye level, in order to see just how much of God's green earth has entered the bore. In the process, however, the cap of the man squatting next to him is tipped off into the water, and the result . . . a loud wail of complaint. Shut up, Corporal Smith, comes the instant rebuke, and get down, get down! before one of those enemy snipers fixes it so you don't need a hat. Meanwhile, the major and his aides are industriously scanning a map of the terrain for possible concealed routes to the top of the hill. I've got an idea, sir, offers an anxious sergeant. Well, what is it? Well, according to Section 45, Paragraph 3, if nothing else presents itself, you can always climb through the tops of a long line of trees. Hmmmmm, meditates the major. lt ought to surprise them, anyway . . . but, we don't have a long line of trees. Sooooooo, I suppose we'll just have to charge the area. Captain! Tell your mcn to unsling arms and prepare to assault fire. the ca tain Lieutenant! Tell your men to unsling arms and Yes, sir, snaps p , prepare to assault fire. Yes, sir, is the Lieutenant's instant reply. Sergeant! Tell your men to . . . When the order reaches everyone in the battalion, the rifles are taken off the shoulders and held in readiness for the awaited command. As a certain private explains to an exasperated sergeant that he has lost the bolt to his rifle along the way, three pairs of nearby eyes look despairingly toward the heavens and humbly sigh, Oh, Lord-what next? But now, all hearts are tense, as the bodies of the men are crouched to spring to battle at their leader's word. Seemingly out of nowhere, a bell begins ringing, and the shouted call of Dismissed sends the sixty khaki-clad young men jumping to their feet and scam- pering to the red brick building at their left. The Southwest R.O.T.C. Battalion has completed another day of small unit maneuvers.

Student Council Until the student can realize his indi- vidual responsibilities, and fulfill them of his own accord, democracy will not properly function. Indeed, it is the duty of every American to feel his part in the type of government which he firmly advocates. As the very basis of the Southwest Student Council, individual responsibility has been stressed. Educa- tion in human relations, experience in leadership, and basic training in gov- ernment constitute the rewards of our Student Council. FIRST SEMESTER Charleen Dunn . Phil Kassebaum .

The meeting was called to order by the president, Miss Tro Paeolus. 'lhe roll was called and the minutes half read, but since the noise of the not-too-attentive audience was too great, that business was dropped. The president asked if there were any old .......,............,..,..,.......,,...,. The sentence remained unfinished in a barrage of chatter as ancient bits of gossip were brought to mind by that fatal word Hold. An innocent and defenseless visitor, I had been politely invited to attend this third semi-annual meeting of the reputed most sophisticated club in school, but I had not expected anything like this. The sergeants-at-arms were vainly trying to keep order, and, after a periou of about fifteen minutes, managed to salvage some order out of complete chaos. President Paeolus calmly concluded, .....,.,.....,.......,.......,..,,.. business. Silence!! Mouths hanging dramatically open, the president and the secretary stared at each other unbelievingly. But, taking advantage of the phenomena, madame president hastened to ask if there were any new business. A timid freshman arose and moved that the dues be lowered from two deep yellow nasturtiums to two of the most common variety of speckled ones, since she had found herself in a very embarrassing situation one day while crossing an extremely stubborn barbed-wire fence in search of a deep yellow one. The motion carried easily when some of the other members admitted that they had had the same trouble. The question of the annual dinner arose. In the past, a picnic supper had usually been held in the yard of the member whose nasturtiums had been voted the most beautiful. But this year the club voted to have it indoors since tradition absolutely demanded that the feast take place during the third week of April, and since Spring was late in coming this year for some unknown reason Qpossibly it was unavoidably detained-a slight cold or somethingj. Therefore, all agreed that it was imperative that the question be settled immediately-then promptly forgot it, for someone at that moment happened to recall that a member of the faculty, no less, had tossed an empty candy wrapper on the sacred grave of dead nasturtiums that had won many prizes while in this world. Quickly, angry remarks filled the club room. It was suggested that the clubvsue, but then someone offered that the criminal would prob- ably be so terrified that he, or she, would be happy to settle the damages out of court, thereby saving the club from possible bad publicity. The discussions of this crime Qpunishable by imprisonment, were it not for some silly lawj continued for about forty-five minutes. Then the first informer chanced to remark that the guilty culprit was none other than that darling new aviation professor, and all was immediately forgiven and the subject forgotten. The discussion was just getting back to the dinner when someone screamed that that same aviation professor was walking out of the door at the far end of the hall. The entire club squealed and dashed out. Meeting adjourned. Page 151 I: 1 ' iff? E z,2h J.' ' ' ll' 's dew D sf' Afesg 1- 5 ., I A' ,51 7.. 49' -' . ' 1. A.

Wild roses calk The crumbling garden walls where silence vast And drear envelops sound and lends contrast To long dead laughter, tears and idle talk. As daylight fades and evening shadows fall, The past enfolds me, clutching for my hands, I must escape! The creaking rusty gate Swings wide and I desert my fears. Thus, all My dreams have vanished, but the garden stands A sentinel of time, defying fate. Page 157 fat Lfgut 1 Verse-Very Superior QUERY TO HAMLET By Priscilla Petersen Hamlet, thou unhappy prince! Torn between thy love and hate, Hast thy father rested since Thou avenged his cursed fate? In the gloom of Elsinore, Hast thou found at last thy peace, Freed from treachery of yore, Sleeping now in sweet release? Lying in a grave unblest, Reconciled to Hamlet's scorn, Doth Ophelia calmly rest, Healed of grief, no more to mourn? Hamlet immortal! I query thee, Hast thou found joy, in eternity? Page 158 H L .... Essay-Very Superior GUARDIAN OF THE FOREST By Bruce Bellamy The wind from the South, while yet chilly, had a definite smell of spring. The faint hint of balmy weather brought a cheery lilt to the songs of the cardinal and the other birds that had remained in the woods all winter. The warmth of the sun, which lingered in the Southern sky longer each day, seemed to instill new life in the squirrel, and she ventured more frequently from her cozy nook deep in the trunk of the old Elm. The wood- chuck pushed his hoary head from his burrow near the foot of the ancient tree and ambled sleepily off in search of nourishment, looking for all the world like a little man in a much-too-large fur coat. The Elm herself felt the delightful pressure in her uppermost branches as new sprouts sought to push out and greet the world. The warm, tingling feel- ing of sap returning to her veins caused her to stand straighter, to try to lift her crown higher above the lesser sentinels of the forest. The sun grew warmer each day and the Elm observed more and more little people of the woods as they scampered among the trees, intent upon their own affairs. The cardinal was seldom seen anymore. He was following the cool weather on its ever-swifter movement north. In the brilliant redbird's place came the oriole, to build her mossy cradle on the old tree's gently swaying limbs, and that dashing songster, the bluebird, spent much time flitting among the Elm's branches, pouring forth his melo- dious tribute to spring. At the venerable Elm's roots, violets raised their shy blooms from the moist earth. They clustered around the tree's base like gaily-colored chicks about a benevolent hen. Other flowers provided splashes of color among the thickets: the jack-in-the-pulpit, the Columbine, and the Dutchman's breeches. The Elm herself was covered with new foliage. The breeze whispered among the dark-green leaves so that it seemed the old tree was sighing, but she was far from it. She loved the spring, and the whispering of her leaves was her only way of expressing her emotion. Often the skies grew dark and the gentle plash-plashing of rain sent the little folk to shelter. The squirrel now had a mate and the Elm enjoyed their companionable stirrings in the hollow of her trunk or in the nest they were con- structing high in her branches. The' rain passed and the sun burst forth to gild the drops of moisture clinging to the leaves and grasses. The woodchuck, once more portly, came from his burrow to sit on his doorstep and survey the newly- washed world. May arrived with rapidly-rising tem- peratures. The walnut, among the last to garb herself in spring attire, was now fully clothed in pale green. The birds flew about more busily, for they had to feed their nestlingsg but they still had time to warble their joyful songs to the blue sky. The heat increased as summer ad- vanced. June came, and was gone, and then July. The animals remained in their cool shelters during the middle of the day when the sun glared down, venturing out only at night and early morning. Their tempers grew short and they often quarreled. The groundhog returned from a midnight foray on a nearby farm with a mutilated leg. He had barely escaped from the jaws of a vicious dog. He was a long time nursing himself back to health. Despite the fact the small animals kept hidden most of the day, the Elm had no time to be lonely, because the great cat- tle came into the woods in the hottest part of the afternoon. They stood in groups in the tree's shade to escape the fury of the sun. They wore the old E1m's bark smooth by their rubbing against her. When great thunderheads hid the sun from sight, and the clouds lowered, the ancient Elm trembled. The storms now Page 159 were nothing like the gentle dripping of the spring rains. The were accompanied by jagged tongues ofylightning and omi- nous roars of thunder. The rain came in ragged, peltering drops, the wind rose and the Elm feared for her life. The cot- tonwood down by the brook was split asunder by a sudden flash of lightning and she fell into the stream. The sun, after a mid-summer storm, did not shine upon a peaceful scene, but rather upon a litter of broken limbsg and, too often, upon the lifeless body of a young bird that had been blown tumbling from its treetop nest. As the days went by, the heat became more oppressive and the Elm's leaves hung listlessly, as no breeze came to stir them. The dog-days of August had come. The cloudless sky seemed cast of brass, streams began to dry up, and the tree leaves were tinged with brown. August gave way to September, but the drought persisted. Even the most hardy birds ceased their songs. Then, one day, a light breeze appeared from the West. The Elm began to stir from her lethargy as the breeze increased in volume. Then. a small cloud appeared in the West, growing larger and larger until it became a huge thunderhead. The wind blew stronger and still stronger, but the old Elm faced it bravely, allowing her branches to whip with the wind as if in a dance of rejoicing when the raindrops began to patter on her leaves. The drought was broken. After the storm the mercury began to fall steadily. The squirrel, while romping with her new son late one evening, caught the smell of frost in the air. The next day she began teaching her off- spring the art of gathering nuts for the winter months. Flights of geese and ducks were seen winging their way to warmer climes and the bluebirds fol- lowed. Late one night the temperature dipped sharply and the next morning the ground was covered with a silvery coating of frost. Once more the woods became the scene of a flurry of industry. The woodchuck bustled here and there, stuffing himself for his coming winter sleep. The squir- rels increased their activity, rushing about, caching food in many places. The trees, as their sap returned to their roots, put on a show of colors that rivaled a paint-box. The maples clothed them- selves in brilliant scarlet while the wal- nuts and cottonwoods provided contrast with brightest yellow. The old Elm, not to be outdone, adorned herself in pale yellow and orange hues. Then, as sud- denly as they appeared, the colors faded. The leaves began to drift from the boughs and soon the trees were shiver- ing nakedly. The cardinal and some chickadees, just back from the North- land, perched upon the bare limbs or scratched for seeds beneath the carpet of leaves on the ground. The woodchuck was now asleep for the winter. The squirrel's work was done. The sun shone for a shorter time each day and most days the clouds hid it from sight. The snow began one afternoon and fell all through the night. By the next morning the ground was covered. The Elm tree bowed her head and settled into a half-sleep, dreaming of years gone by and the spring to come. Oration-Very Superior FINANCIAL GENIUS By Denny Bolte When you think of the Revolutionary founder of this country, Thomas Jeffer- period of this country, certain great per- son, author of the Declaration of Inde- sonalities and outstandin fi res imme- S gu pendence, Patrick Henry, author of that diately come to mind: George Washing- immortal Give me liberty or give me ton, first President and well-named death speech on the floor of the Vir- Page 160 - -gg T-, -- ginia Legislature, Benjamin Franklin, diplomat and conciliator, and Alexander Hamilton. Of all these great men, Alexander Hamilton, is probably the least well known in our times, and yet without his contribution to our .early development, our government would not be the sound, stable instrument of democracy that it is today. For that very reason I have chosen Alexander Hamilton as the subject of my oration. Let me name a few of the things which Hamilton did, that are a part of our magnificent country today, and which bear the indelible stamp of his genius and his ability to project shrewd think- ing into the future development of these United States of America. Like our present Chief Executive, President Harry S. Truman, Alexander Hamilton was a captain of an artillery company, and his proficiency in military tactics brought him to the attention of General Washington. As an aide on Washington's staff, he advanced to the rank of' Lieutenant Colonel, and acted as Washington's confidential secretary. Once in a fit of resentment, because the Commander-in-Chief rebuked him on the grounds of disrespect, he resigned, but never wavered in his allegiance to the cause of the patriots. Soon after the outbreak of the war, Hamilton began to take a lively interest in the financial problems that confronted the confederation of American Colonies. It was therefore quite natural that Presi- dent Washington should select Hamilton to be the first Secretary of the Treasury, immediately after Congress had passed an act establishing a Treasury Depart- ment in September of 1789. Because of the shaky condition of the country's fi- nances, and the necessity of establishing the new government's economic position on a firm footing, this was a position of great importance, and the services that Hamilton rendered to this nation during his term of office are scarcely less val- uable than those of Washington himself. He successfully re-established public credit, and formed precedents which have since been followed and have determined the whole future policy of the nation. Among other things, he made exhaustive studies and reports on the raising and collection of revenue, and he estimated for the first time the income and expendi- tures of the government. He organized the postoffice, established a mint, and founded the First Bank of the United States. It is interesting to note that party lines were sharply drawn between Mr. Hamilton and his Federalist party, who believed in the centralization of govern- ment, and Thomas Jefferson, whose Democratic partybelieved in states' rights. jefferson, you will remember, thought that a government was best that governed least, while Hamilton wanted the federal government to have strong supervisory power over local and state government. The growth of Hamilton's ideas in pres- ent day government and the tendency toward greater centralization in Wash- ington, prove Hamilton's ability to project his thinking into these times nearly two hundred years later. It would be difficult to overestimate Hamilton's service to this nation at a time when it was struggling for its very existence. Hamilton contended vigor- ously for the establishment of a strong central government, proposed various measures which were influential in bring- ing about such a result, and did more than any other man to put this nation on a firm financial footing, to restore public credit, and to establish sound views in the minds of the people regard- ing political economy and finances of the United States. He undoubtedly saw further and clearer in his own field than any of his contemporaries, and therefore takes his position among the truly great leaders in the establishment of this great republic.

Early in the year, South- west juniors and seniors signed cards indicating which college representatives they would like to meet and consult. Then, on December the thirteenth, eighty-seven representatives of colleges and universities gathered at Southwest to advise the students in making their plans for the future. Vocational films were shown in the auditorium. The pictures on the right illustrate three scenes typical of College Day. At the top, several girls are interviewing representatives of Bradford junior Col- lege. In the center is a long-range view of the cafeteria, where many of the con- ferences were held. The bottom picture depicts one of the individual tables in the cafeteria where a representative of Iowa State College and Iowa University is interesting several students in these schools.

He wore knee pants, orange spats, and a polka dot skull cap. When questioned about his unusual attire, the elf answered that he never worried about his clothes because the principles he stood for were never out of date. I learned that he resides at Southwest and has lived here since the day the first student crossed the newly laid threshhold. Due to his small stature and slightly transparent complexion, he often becomes lost in the rush and jumble of thronging students. In fact, I am the only student who has ever seen him, although he is present wherever Southwest students congregate. When loyal Indians stand firm behind their teams both in victory and defeat, when students claim new honors for their alma-mater, when they spend many extra hours in upholding the name of Southwest through extra curricular activities, it is this little man who spurs them on. He instigates plans for school and community improve- ments, he encourages honesty, reliability, and fair play. He prevents loss of self control and vandalism in crowds. Thriving on competition, he urges students to do their utmost in literary contests, on debate teams, in music festivals, and in art exhibits. One of his chief duties is to strengthen the cooperation and understanding beween the student body and the faculty. His presence is sensed keenly when a laurel has been added to the many already won by Southwest, but he is probably most ' l t the best of our ability, but are neede determined to improve.

At the upper right, Mr. Milton leads the choir through the halls as they serenade the sixth-hour classes on the last day before the holidays. In the left cen- ter, the choir progresses downstairs to entertain other students with their joyous carols. The center snap shows members of the French classes as they sing French Christmas songs in the front hall before school. But Christmas at Southwest signi- fies not only holiday spirits, but also good-will toward others. Therefore in the right center, we see Miss Jackson surveying the gaily wrapped veterans' boxes packed by Southwest students. However, there are other occasions besides Christmas for assemblies. The scene at the lower left was snapped dur- ing It Pays to Be Smart , a radio pro- gram sponsored by the University of Kansas City which was transcribed in the Southwest auditorium for a broadcast over WHB. Wildcat Willie Gets Girl Trouble , a play produced by the dra- matic class, proved to be a very humorous assembly. The picture in the lower center catches the cast in a tense moment during a rehearsal for this performance. In the lower right hand corner another interesting and informative assembly, the Preview of Progress show, presented by General Motors, is depicted. In this exhibition new developments in radio, electricity, rubber, and jet propulsion were dramatically demonstrated. Thus, the various programs of 1948- 1949 maintained the high standards es- tablished by the excellent performances of past years. Qlfidcfo-m When I was a freshman, many years ago, I somehow entertained the ludicrous idea that my duty at Southwest was to absorb knowledge. I realize now that the many sage tidbits of wisdom I have acquired are much more important than any . . . k principles of geometry or conceptions of history I might have learned, had I ept awake in class or read Morison and 'Commager . Highlighting my high school career and deep-rooted in my memory are the following rules: 1. Unless you are a philanthropist never bring extra typing paper to class. 2. Always raise your hand when the teacher asks a question you don't know. If by chance you should recall the answer, quickly disguise your countenance with a woeful look of gloom, and she will pounce upon you immediately. 3. Never brave the between class rush until one-half a minute before the tardy bell. You may be late to class, but after all, even an eighth hour is more desirable than a broken knee cap. 4. Be different! Follow the arrows on the stairs. 5. Girls only: Learn to sit in such a position that your skirt hides your feet. Some shoes are so uncomfortable. 6. Never write legibly on an essay test. If you know nothing about the given topic, scribble pitifully a two or three page dissertation on How Peter Rallpbrt Tope ' ene it His Pants in Mr. McGregor's Cabbage Patch . The teacher may give you t e of the doubt. Page 169 When Work's Done, During the school year, Southwest stu- dents participated in various extra-cur- ricular activities. The pictures at the right illustrate some of these. At the top left, members of the girls' gym classes tally their bowling scores. They took part in this activity once a week. The top right picture shows the members of the Engineer's Club learning about the me- chanical organization of the Bell Tele- phone Company on one of their several field trips. At the middle left, the girls Pla Begins indulge in a popular outdoor sport, while at the right, a bowler demonstrates good form for this sport. This activity, along with ice-skating, occupied the cold winter months. Almost every Saturday night during the school year, Tepee Town, sponsored by the Country Club Community Center, was held. The left picture shows the game room and at the right, candy, cokes, and ice cream are purchased at the snack bar. Uwerf la Zhe '7eaaJm4 Today I tallied up the score To see what I recall Of four years spent in grinding toil, Excluding study hall. I know the definition of A sentence, clause, and phrase. I've read the classics through and through- Which left me in a daze. john Hancock signed his name most bold, And jackson fought the bankg McClellan ran for president, And Guiteau was a crank. Combattre means to fight against, Resido, to sit down, El mar in Spanish stands for sea. In German burg is town. A circle has diameter, A secant is a lineg Though X and Y make fifty-two, The square of three is nine. I know the use of oxygen And most atomic weightsq I've made a quart of H25 And three permanganates. I ache in every thew and joint, I've sprained my weaker kneeg A token of the halls? why, no, just gym's effect on me! My finger has an inky stain, From writing all those themes, My eyes have circles black and deep From Charnwood, now, it seems. I have a splitting headache, and My brain requires a rest. I hope that I will never take Another gosh-darned test. In going on vacation now, I thank my teachers all. May life be kind to each of them, At least, until next fall.

To Bridgeport, Connecticut, we bequeath Dian Drollinger, our shining junior assistant, who did most of our typing-and our Latin homework. To next year's Editor-in-Chief, we bequeath the one remaining aspirin with the stipulation thatit be used sparingly. To future artists, the art staff bequeaths gashed fingers and hopes for bigger, better, and tougher rubber blocks. ' To future typists, we leave Badychzopklm and people who write with hard pencils. To next year's business manager, we bequeath this year's balance of 25c. To the next year's Class editor, we bequeath the people who don't turn in their senior activities until the book is published. x To next year's Activity editor, we bequeath the agonies of a limited vocabulary. To future Copy editors, we bequeath the stultifying shock of finding a picture of first team football beneath the caption Chinese Musiciansf' To the next year's photographic staff, we bequeath one slightly-used flash bulb. To next year's Sports editor, we leave this year's track records. To next year's dummy, we bequeath one-fourth of a jar of rubber cement. To the next year's R. O. T. C. editor, we bequeath one exquisite print of this year's queen. To next year's Organization editor, we bequeath the problem of alphabetizing the names of the members of the clubs. To the rest of the school, we bequeath the 1949 Sachem with the desire that they enjoy it. Page 172 if E li i. I l ll n an ' rv 32331, l 31:9 -Q ie.. w We Sand of Red! With the traditional ceremony of faded blue jeans and dunce caps, a hundred- two-and-a-half senior boys were inducted into the society Ye Sons of Rest. QThe half was, naturally, Jack Montgomery., This select multitude of young men, whose creed is work short, play long, comprises about one third of the members of an otherwise feverishly active senior class of 1949. Their admittance into the Southwest chapter of Ye Sons of Rest climaxed a year of heated contest to see which of the senior boys could do the least work. The election of officers of this organization was held soon after the induction ceremony. The high offices were awarded according to the boys' achievements. For his distinguished and conspicuous efforts to evade all forms of work, john McGuire was unanimusly elected president. Bob Olmsted and John McNay were strong contenders for vice-president. Bob was elected by a small margin. His unusual sense of humor seemed largely responsible for his gaining this coveted position. Since the task of completing the election involved a little too much effort, it was' moved, seconded, and passed that the number of officers be reduced to president and vice-president. The meeting adjourned until next year when about half the membership will, no doubt, still be around.
