Geisler, Thursby. adviser, and Raah The staff was organized at the beginning of the school year, with Marie Davis and Bino Da Dan as Co-Editors. The editors then got to work by selecting their staff members and making a few other changes. The Cardinal was printed only once a month instead of twice a month. This change was made because in former years the students had to spend a great deal of their time working on the paper. Also in this last year, typists, Elaine Fuzak and Helen Rother- mel, were added to the list of staff members. This was done to re- lease the editors from that responsibility, as they already have enough work to do. It is also the duty of the editors to choose a staff to carry on and publish the school paper in the coming year. This was a rather difficult job to do, as there are only a few lowerclassmen who have had any experience in journalism. Evelyn De Morrow and Jeanne Mongrieg were finally chosen for this position as Co-Editors. The Annual is the biggest and most important job of all! There- fore, only those that have had past experience in journalism are selected to help in publishing this book. Another factor that inter- venes here is the student's school marks, maintaining a definite average to be eligible. page twenty-two

Bodjack HAIL CHAMPS In many respects the year 1940-41 will go down in history as the most successful of a long period of successful athletic years at Stevensville High School Following a year of mediocre achievement, the redoubtable Cardinal athletes served notice last fall that their star was on the ascendency by taking the South Western Michigan D Conference Championship in Softball without the loss of a game. Held to a mere half-dozen practice sessions before the basket- ball season started, the Cards got off to a shaky start. They looked unpolished in their defeat of Edwardsburg and positively ragged on the short end of a 45-26 fracas at the hands of their neighbor, Bridgman They managed to nose out Eau Claire by a close score but were tripped by a fast, rugged Berrien Springs team in the next encounter. In a pre-Christmas comeback they trounced a poten- tially strong Baroda team 47-23, inspiring Coach Shearer to venture a prediction that the team could win the State Championship if the pace could be maintained. The holidays came and went, and the Cards took a pair of easy ones from St Joe Catholics and Galien and then psychologically fell apart in the last half of their second game with Bridgman, absorbing a 50-20 shellacking. They didn't look like Champions then, but came back with a vengeance to administer a second trouncing to Baroda, 42-26 Galien, Eau Claire, Berrien Springs, New Troy (twice), and St. Joe Catholics were taken in stride, to complete a scheduled sea- son of 12 victories and 3 defeats, and to bring home a Conference Championship. Perhaps the most astonishing victory was the Berrien Springs game in which the Shamrocks were crushed 42-22 by a well- nigh perfect Cardinal machine VARSITY BASKETBALL page ticentg-four
