As the play opens Fred Ritter has arrived home unexpectedly only to find that his wife is to appear in a play for the benefit of charity. This is a shock to him for never has he heard of his wife having any ability to act. But later that evening, when the play cast is having the final practice in his home, the shock is so great. he faints. He realizes his wife's inability to act. not to mention the lack of ability of the others, Mr. Spindler, Mr. Huxley Hossefrosse, Teddy Spearing. CAST fired Ritter . . Jenny fthe maidl .

The next evening the amateurs presented their play which to the horror of Mr. Ritter, although he quite expected it, is a terrific flop. From then on, he makes fun of his wife's so called acting. However. she believes firmly that she is a natural-born actress because of the compliments given her by Mrs. Pom- panelli and Mrs. Nelly Fell and their persua- sion for her to go on the stage as a profession. But after many criticisms and jokes from her husband. Paula finally decides that home life would, after all. be the best, . Walter Horst . Miss Miriam Noyes . Margaret Ciose . l.illian Comar .

For to them. the United States symbolizes the same freedom and individual rights which they have lost. Yet we in America seldom realize the great heritage of liberty which our fore- fathers have entrusted to us. Most of us take for granted those same civil rights which the conqueror has denied the people of Europe. As loyal Americans. we must realize how fortunate we are to have these rights. We must remember that our liberty didn't just happen: it wasn't merely granted to us. Our freedom is the result of centuries of struggle with countless men fighting so that we might enjoy that liberty for which they died. NEVER IDLISI we take our liberty for granted. The basic foundation of our civil rights dates back to medieval Europe in the year 1215. ln that year. the barons of England forced King John to concede certain indivi- dual rights. But still our ancestors did not enjoy the freedom which they desired. They longed so much for religious freedom that they braved the unknown ocean to settle this new continent where they could worship as they might choose. Our forefathers fought and died in the Revolutionary War rather than to submit to the principle of taxation without representation. Despite their strug- gles the founders of our country were still not willing to grant specific rights to the people. A I ,,f They believed that the courts would uphold civil rights. Only after determined demands of the people was there included in our Con- stitution a bill of rights which guaranteed justice to the individual. Our civil rights were still not complete for amendments had to be made to the Constitution to free the slaves and to extend the right of voting to women. In this manner our American rights have developed until today we possess greater freedom than has been won by any other nation on the face of this earth. Seldom do we realize the privileges which we enjoy. We have the right of voting for the officers of our government, while in Germany the right of voting is entirely denied the people. We read the newspapers with complete assurance that there is no govern- ment propaganda in them. but in the dictator- ships every printed word is either heavily censored news or propaganda. Under the Nazi regime. freedom of speech is entirely lacking. In America an accused man is guaranteed the right of a public and speedy trial by an im- partial jury. Contrast this with Hitler's latest demand that he be given the power of life or death over all of his subjects. ln America, we have the privilege of choosing our own religion but under the dictators, all religions are being destroyed. ln countless other ways. the vanquished have been robbed of their civil rights by the invaders. Small wonder is it that in the conquered countries of Europe the defeated still fight on. In Erance. patriots wreck Nazi supply trains and kill German officers: brave Norwegians sabotage supplies and destroy military equip- ment: in Czechoslavakia. munition workers construct shells which will never fire. These courageous men are risking their lives against a merciless enemy in order that they may do their part in regaining liberty. Yet most of us in America take our freedom as a matter of fact. We forget that many people do not enjoy such freedom. lf we are to remain free we must exercise our rights and jealously guard them. We must feel proud of our American liberty and of our forefathers who sacriliced in order that we might be free. Today our liberty is in danger. The out- come of this world struggle will determine if we will remain free. If we fail. America will no longer be the land of the free but only a subjugated protectorate in a Nazi dominated World. If we succeed, not only will we have saved our own freedom but we will have restored freedom to all the people of this earth. Today. all Americans must stand strongly united to fight-work-sacrk lice--save--give-for Freedom. Georqe V. Thom son . P 7 EDUCATION America was founded by a group of earn- est pioneers who wanted to govern them- selves and worship God in their own way. For a long time their whole attention was directed toward building homes, protecting their families. and using their new freedom of worship. Soon. however, the need of ed- ucation became evident. The wealthier fam- ilies of the colonies either secured special tutors for their children or sent them abroad to England to be educated, The ones that could not afford this still lacked any form of education until l647 when the Puritan gov- ernment passed the famous Massachusetts School Act which laid the foundation for our present American public school system. This act declared that an elementary school should be established for every lifty families and a grammar school for every hundred families. These first schools were small one-roomed structures made of wood. Often they had only crude wooden benches for the children to sit on. and were handicapped by inade- quate supplies and incompetent instructors. The three basic teachings in these early schools were the well known three R's- Readin', 'Riting, and 'Rithmatic. Also stressed were worthy home-membership and ethical character. In reviewing the early history of our schools one man stands out above all others as a great champion of American education. This is Horace Mann. the father of the common schools. Born under the handicaps of poverty and ill-health Horace Mann rose to fame by his own initiative. In 1837 the Senate of Massachusetts passed a bill pro- viding for a Board of Education which was to reorganize the common-school system of Massachusetts. For twelve years Mann served as secretary of this board, and the ideas that he submitted diffused not only through the state of Massachusetts. but throughout the whole world. By speaking, writing, and laboring. counting no sacrifice too great. I-Iorace Mann awakened the thinking world to the necessity of better methods in educa- tion. Through his untiring effort he laid the foundation of the present common-school system of America and established the pre- paratory institutions for teachers which we call Normal schools. The great strides that we have made in our educational program are shown through our present varied program of learning. It is possible today in the public schools to re- ceive commercial, manual, agricultural, scien- tilic, and physical training which were un- heard of a few years ago. Today special ed- ucation is available for those who differ widely from the normal child such as the blind. deaf and dumb, crippled, and feeble- minded. There is a growing faith of the American people that public education will solve the political, social, and economic prob- lems which confront them. And, finally, the greatest benefit we have received from education is the fact that ed- ucation promotes democracy. America must be strong-able to defend herself-ready to serve the cause of human freedom. So we have a job to do. We cannot do this job unless we are strong-strong in body, mind. and spirit. Not only must we build up our defenses for today, but we should look ahead to the days to come. We must prepare for the future, for the America to be. For that America, the youth of today who will be the citizens of tomorrow must be trained to be strong. loyal, wise. tolerant. Thus we provide schools to help our future citizens to-build strong bodies, develop special talents. prepare for jobs. learn to work together, grow in character, and become good citizens! JoAnn Thomas 23 l24 7 SOCIAL FREEDOM The heritage of social freedom is very im- portant to the American people. It gives us equal opportunity and the right to live as we please. We have freedom in choosing a career, in participating in home life, and in selecting our recreation. We may formulate our own political and religious beliefs. When the settlers came to our country, they left behind them nations that were domi- nated by the nobility. In those nations members of the working class were poor. They were not allowed to associate with the upper class and had little or no chance to obtain sufEcient training in any field so that they might be able to improve their living conditions or social status, When people from those nations came to establish a govern- ment here in America, they provided that there would be no titled class. Today anyone who is ambitious and will- ing to work has the opportunity to make a success of his life in any field that he chooses. There is free education for all and if a person wishes to continue beyond high school he can work his way through a higher institu- tion of learning. One doesn't have to be wealthy or a member of the Four Hundred to obtain an education. He can follow any profession or trade that appeals to him. He may be a doctor, a machinist or a street sweeper and he may practice his chosen vo- cation in any part of the country whether it be Maine, Missouri or California. In our country it is not as it is in some European countries where a person does the kind of work he is told to do and is sent where the ruler thinks he will be most useful to the nation. In our leisure time we have the same pri- vilege of choosing what we wish to do. Our recreation depends entirely on our own tastes. One person might prefer to read while an- other would enjoy a good rousing game of tennis. We do not have regimented activities to fill our spare time. We are not compelled to take part in any form of athletics in which we do not care to participate. We may be- long to any form of club or organization as long as it is not actively against our govern- ment. These rights-to choose a career, to have equal opportunity, to live your life as you please, to spend your leisure indulging in your favorite pastime, and to obtain as much edu- cation as you want-all contribute to social freedom. But in the social aspect of life as well as in the political and economic, we need leaders-leaders who will open new fields in work and play and who will take advantage of existing opportunities. This necessity is recognized by the schools and they take the responsibility of attempting to develope qualities of leadership in the students. The most significant of these qualities are initia- tive, dependability, enthusiasm, honesty, and cooperative spirit. These same traits should help to make up the character of every good citizen. Therefore the class of '42 dedicates itself to strive to attain perfection in these qualities. Mary Ellen Smith 1-A1 fllj 711315 in Ill L' , Q A ' ' H -1 'i,-. ' i A We, the renowned class of '42 are leaving at last. But in order to establish ourselves more firmly in your memory, we are also leaving this. our last will and testament, to you.

To the Sophomores, we give our ability in penmanship which comes in handy in writ- ing your own excuses. To the Freshmen, we bequeath our fine sense of humor. P.

To the Faculty, we promise that, to the best of our ability, we shall practice at all times the fine things which you have taught us. And as a last farewell to good old Three Rivers High we say-- Thanks for the Mem- ories. PERSONALS I, Jane Amer, leave my faithfulness to Phyllis Warner.

This concludes our will to you - - There's nothing more to tell But from the Class of '42 We'd like to say - Farewell. l25 I 2225532 - - WF Good evening everyone. This is Doug Horst speaking to you from the top of the Monroe Tower, recently built in memory of the late Thomas Monroe. It is my priv- ilege to be able to broadcast to you for a short period the reunion of the Class of 1942. We have with us tonight that number one band of the country - none other than Charles Daugherty's Swingadeers! At the table directly in front of Daugher- ty's band are seated Ralph Kaiser and Frank- lin Delong of the Thompson foundation. From all reports they have been working on an invention to revolutionize the gasoline in- dustry. Miss Elaine Madsen, top ranking woman brain surgeon and her assistant, Miss Louise Luse. are also at that table. Stepping now from the elevator are Miss Julia Ciherna, associate editor of Collier's and Robert Krull, serial writer for Liberty magazine. Just behind them I believe that I recognize Nile Miller and Clarence Smagala. partner owners of the Miller-Smagala Midget Racing Establishment. Well, I see that everybody is not literally awake and enthusiastic about this reunion. Although I cannot see his face from under that newspaper, it would not be hard to guess that it is none other than Don Briggs, bliss- ful proprietor of the Peaceful Rest Club. There seems to be quite a heated argument going on over at the table to my left. Coach Robert Fitch, head basketball coach of Yale is quite excited over the fact that Le Roy Tomlinson, former Harvard man believes that the chances of Yale's winning this year in basketball are quite slim. Doctors Samp- sell and Warner are quite disturbed by the bickering of the two rivals. Well, I see they have arrived at last! Who? None other than those two Wizards of the Soil , Glenn Fetterolf and Kenneth Krull. Their experiments with the Malarky Bean have changed the whole concept in the art of farming. Doug Roll, Admiral in the U. S. Navy. is accompanying the exotic society tatler, 26 O Jane Arner. This is their first reunion since high school age. They seem to be enjoying themselves to the utmost. Who wouldn't? The band is, by request of Henry Hall and Miss Shirleyanne Guetthoff, fthat famous dancing teaml playing the new hit Tanger- ine Walk . This song, by the way, was written by Marilyn Orr and published by Weiss, Hill, Holtom. and Carpenter Publish- ing Co. This is the only major company of this type run completely by women. Wallace Scott, that modernizing executive of the J. C. Penney Co. is here tonight with his secretary, Miss Jeanne Harmon. Jim Butler and Myrl Ruggles of the John Deere Co. are getting a big kick of tying Mr. Scott's tails of his coat to the chair while he is not looking. I see that that brilliant District Attorney from the Detroit area, Wilbur Pierce, has brought his male secretary, Francis McCar- thy, with him to this reunion tonight. Jo Ann Thomas, biggest box office draw since Rooney, is coming in now along with her usual fanfare of press agents and reporters. In the background we see Robert Hughes. flying cadet. The gowns worn by the ladies here tonight for the most part, were designed by Dorothy Zander, who is dancing directly in front of me now, as chic and refreshing as her stun- ning creations. Dancing with Miss Zander is play boy Donald Poffenberger, who might be counted one of the zero's of the four hundred. Oh. Oh, here comes three efhcient nurses. Patricia Crose, Marie Fisher and Phyllis Abshire. of Luegge Sanitarium, founded by that eminent and benevolent millionaire, Jimmy Malcolm, who incidentally, gave up a fabulous fortune to pursue the ministry.

Coach Pellegroms grid- ders amassed a total of l84 points to their opponents 8. The Cats won seven contests and tied one with Sturgis High School. An alert Vfildcat eleven started off the sea' son with a bang, defeating Coldwater's in, experienced and unconditioned squad 34 to O. liarlv in the first quarter Chet DalPonte's. Cliff Curtis' and Don Coriey's combined efforts gave the locals their first score, The locals picked up a safety and shortly after a pass from Coney to Barger added two points more. Martin blocked a Cardinal punt and recovered the pigskin on the five. Dalponte stepped over to make the score Zl to O. Bob Hughes took a Coney pass for '55 yards to open the Wildcat scoring the third period. W.llSL5U'S conversion was good for one more point lntercepting a stray Coldwater pass. Watstun galloped 22 yards for the final touch- down. The Wildcats easily won their first home game from Battle Creek's Lakeview 24 to O. The locals were unable to score until with but lO seconds to go in the Hrst half Coney passed to Barger from the nine to put Three Rivers on the long end of a 6 to 0 game. A Coney to Barger touchdown pass opened the third quarter. Coney toted the pigskin on a spectacular 35 yard end run to score again for Three Rivers. l,akeview's half-back fumbled after being hit hard by Armand Moore. Tom Monroe recovered and went Zl yards to a touchdown. Scoref-fThree Riv- ers 24, Lakeview 0. Coach Pellegroms eleven broke a two-year tie with the Dowagiac Indian Chiefs l3 to 6. The Wildcats scored in the second quarter to hold a 6 to 0 lead at the half. Chet Dalponte was injured in the second quarter and was forced to leave the contest. Dowagiac came back with a brilliant offensive in the third period and held the oval on the XVildcats eight at the start of the final quarter. Tog- gart slipped over to tie the score 6 to 6. A stray Dowagiac pass was snapped up by Harold Paarger and carried 46 yards to a touchdown, putting the game on ice for the Wildcats in their first conference tussle. State High could not stem a Wildcat aerial attack and fell Z6 to O to Coach Pellegrom's eleven. A tough stubborn Vwfestern High de- fense prohibited the Cats from scoring in the first quarter and most of the second. The locals' passes seemed the only thing to click against the defense so Don Coney started throwing with Barger and Roush on the re- W '-' - - ,ll ceiving end. Wally Roush made a fine touch- down of Coney's pass to break the ice for Three Rivers. Coney continued to pitch 'em and this time Barger gathered in one on the 30 yard line to score again early in the second half. Barger again scored, this time intercepting State High's lateral pass and run- ning 32 yards to put Three Rivers ahead 19 to 0. Coney's short pass to Barger was converted in the final score of the game. Three Rivers added another conference win. Three Rivers' mighty machine continued to win and trampled South Haven, a confer- ence opponent. in a very exciting 27 to 0 fray. The Wildcats started an early drive behind good blocking and hit pay dirt in the first stanza. With Coney, Curtis, Watson and Springer making good substantial gains the Cats shoved it over in the second quarter. Bob Evans blocked the Lakeside club's punt but his attempt to recover it failed and Wally Roush fell on it for the third marker. Per- haps the most sensational play of the season came next when Harold Barger intercepted a South Haven pass on the five, fumbled, re- covered and out-sprinted his blockers 95 yards up the field for the final touchdown. As the annual Dad's Day game. the Wild- cats turned the heat on Buchanan to the tune of 54 to 0. The locals were scoring on all types of plays, working beautifully defensive- ly and offensively in their fourth conference win. Coney, Watson, Cook, Curtis, Hughes and Barger counted the nine touchdowns for the locals. Under impossible weather condi- tions, the Trojans stopped the Wildcats win- ning streak by holding Three Rivers in a scoreless tie. The Wildcats failed to score after being in scoring position three times in the first half due to bad passes and fumbles. Hard driving Co-Captain Don Coney made a total of 110 yards in the first half after the Wildcat passing attack was found useless. Barger scooped the ball and pushed over in the second half only to have stepped out of bounds. Watson and Coney were standouts offensively while Martin starred on the de- fensive. The game ended Sturgis 0 Three Rivers 0. The locals took the Big Seven Conference title playing in a driving snow on a wet, sloppy, field against Niles Red Legs. The evenly matched teams battled on even terms until a tricky spread formation play set up the locals in a position to score. Co-Captain Coney pitched one to Co-Captain Evans which was good for a 25 yard gain. Then Coney plunged over to make the locals' only score of the contest. Niles opened with a powerful second half offensive led by Coleman and Potager forcing Niles to the locals five yard line early in the fourth quarter. The turning Wildcat line proved its strength by holding the Red Legs on their 5 yard line. Niles caught Coney be- hind the line for a safety of 2 points. The ball game ended with Niles on Three Rivers one yard line. The game ended Three Rivers 6 Niles 2. Eight Seniors bade farewell to football at the close of the Niles game: the two capable co-captains Don Coney and Bob Evans, the two line guards in the persons of Tom Mon- roe and Leonard Cook, fine quarterback, Bob Hughes, two good replacement tackles, Ar- mond Moore and Chuck Daugherty, and George Earnest in the center.

I 391 40 RESERVE FCliOTBALL Coach l,arry Fleming working with a group of small, inexperienced freshmen and sophomores produced a very successful team. The reserves won three of their Eve contests, tied one. and lost one. The scrubs' first season win was over Coach Dean's little lndians of Dowagiac. The little VVildcat's good offense. led by Crosie, Franklin, and Fuller, and their strong defense were too much for Dowagiac's re- serves. i Vv'estern High School reserves dropped a l4 to 0 contest to the local reserves in their first game under lights. ln the 2nd half, State High's stubborn defense kept the locals from scoring freely. The Sturgis reserves held the Three Rivers' reserves to a zero tie in their third start. The teams were evenly matched with Sturgis hav- ing the larger line and the locals holding a slight edge in offense. Cfoach Fleming's little Hghting cats cle- feated Buchanan reserves 6 to O in a close, hardffought battle. Buchanans strong de- fense kept Three Rivers from passing the Z0 in the fourth period, the yard line until Bucks failed to make a first down. The locals took over on the 25. Vw'ith the aid of good blocking. they rang up the only score of the contest. A heavier. more experienced Niles reserve eleven handed the local reserves the first and only defeat of the season. 26 to O. This game ended a line season for Coach Fleming's squad.

The Wildcats then chalked up their second conference win against Dowagiac, 32 to 24. The Chief's were only a point behind the locals at the end of the 3rd, period when the Wildcats got hot in the final period scoring ll points to put another conference game in the local bag. In their second fray, Coldwater fell to the Wildcats' power 46 to 30. The game was nip and tuck with Three Rivers holding a slim lead at the half. The scoring skill of Fitch, Carroll, and Barger in the final half netted the Cats 30 points to collect a third consecutive win. Bob Fitch's I9 point score was the highest single score achieved in the season. Three Rivers rambled on to win over State High 55 to 20. State High had an early lead, but the locals offense was too strong against a strong Kalamazoo defense. Three Rivers continued its winning streak against South Haven. After trailing at the half the Cats came back in the final half to top South Haven 27 to l8. Three Rivers superior defense allowed them only three points in the last half. Don Jeffery sparked the locals offensive. Sturgis avenged its earlier Wildcat defeat on the Cat's home floor by eeking out a 34 to 31 decision in a close tussle. Sturgis was able to maintain its slim lead by stalling the ball in the last minutes of play. The Wildcats came back to take their fifth conference victory in a return game with State High 36 to 28.

Led by Captain Carroll, the Wildcats easily won over St. Joe. This win gave the locals the Big Seven Crown. The Wildcats startcd in front and ended in front. Carroll paced his team with 16 points.

At the end ofthe year the Senior members are presented with a pin that signifies they have been a member and serves as a reminder of happy singing hours. This year the club proved to be very suc- cessful. The girls played a great part in the annual Christmas Cantata. They also made a trip to Kalamazoo for the May Festival and sang in various assembly programs throughout the year. The club was directed by a new and helpful leader. Miss Beulah Behrents. The group hopes to have as suc- cessful a club next year. OFFICERS President . Vice President Secretary Treasurer . Advisor . .Marjoire Holtom . Patsy Beatty Beverly Jones . Elaine Madsen .

During this time they check library books and material. shelve books and Hle pamphlets and other material. They also help keep the chairs in order and the room in general tidy and attractive. A large part of their work is answering questions and aiding students and teachers to find material they wish. In weekly classes, staff members study the - . . methods of running a library and make rules which they must put into practical practice. As it is not the library staffs belief to have all work and no play, it has been the policy to have a party each month. These parties are either held in the private home of some member or at the library with a planned pro- gram for an evening of fun. The staffs motto: To have the right books. for the right person. at the right time.

These people are responsible for the weekly Reflector page which appears in the Three Rivers Com- mercial each Saturday night during the school year.

We would also like to thank the Three Rivers Commercial for making it possible for us to have this opportunity to prove our ability in this field. l5l fb D 0 Q The successful Junior play, Oh Doctor directed by Mr. Cecil Delong, was held Feb- ruary I7. ll?-42. in the high school audi- lorium. The play is about a rich young man. Jimmy Bennett and his cousin. Cinderella Cirassweed. The Hrst scene Ends Flash, Jimmy's butler, answering the phone and writing down a telegram which says that his cousin is coming. This is the beginning of trouble for Jimmy for he has told Cinderella that he is sick and it would be dangerous for her to come. But determined Cinderella. being his only relative, believes it is her duty to be with him. Having Cinderella come is the last thing Jimmy wants because he is not sick and besides she would oppose his engagement to Celia. So Jimmy plays sick with the soacalled helpful scheme of Happy Day, his friend. Vklhen Cinderella arrives with two friends. l.otta Child and Poindexter, she is really convinced that Jimmy is sick but then, who wouldn't, for Happy's scheme even went as far as hiring a day and night nurse. More trouble! Jimmy falls in love with his day nurse so now what will he do about Celia? But it all works out in the end, even when Cinderella finds out the Jimmy was not sick, for her anger is forgotten because of her love for Happy Day. Jimmy's troubles are for- gotten when Celia enters saying that she has just inherited a vast fortune and believes that she does not love Jimmy after all. Now he is free to marry his nurse.

NVeekly meetings are held every Tuesday evening in the social room of the high school where the girls have a planned program. The meeting is opened with the Girl Reserves code. The club purpose is: To strive for th: best in life. to promote friendship, and uplift girls spiritually and morally . During the year the girls have a ,ioint meet- ing with the Hi-Y boys.

The boys aid the school by making minor repairs on such things as broken lockers, desks, seats, and similar fixtures. They also make book shelves, racks and cabinets. All this helps further the boys' manual training. They also make a trip to some large manufacturing company that helps create an industrial in- terest in the boys. The club earns money by selling candy bars before and after school hours each day. The group sponsors an all-school party which is usually one of the best during the year.
