On the morning of September 5th the halls of V. H. S. were jammed with noisy, laughing students, ready to begin another school year. Most of them seemed to know their way around but a few acted rather uncertain and bewildered. These were the freshmen. However, by Friday they were getting used to high school and some of them even turned out for the first dance. On September 14 students were seen coming to school in house coats carrying soap, towels, and other equipment. These proved to be the freshmen Latin students who were being iniated. The first football game was with Traer on September 15. The score was 6-6. The first assembly program was on September 26 with Rev. Caldwell as speaker. September 26 and 28 found the school full of iitters and shaking knees. Physical examinations were being given. On October 4 the commercial de- partment presented an assembly program in the form of a playlet entitled the Golden Hand.

The band gave its first concert of the year on October 15. On October 17 the Lewis players came to VHS to give a performance of Wings Over America, a patriotic mystery.

On October 19 and 20 the commercial department had a visitor, Lloyd V Douglas. head of the commercial department of Iowa State Teachers' College. On October 20 the band made its first out-of-town marching debut, at Independence: Mr. Gates paid his annual visit to Vin- ton. On November 10 an Armistice Day program was held in the gym. That evening Days Without Daddy was presented by the Ham Actors. The iuniors were looking forward to November 17. This was the day of the Iunior Carnival and they worked hard to make it a success.

On November 28 the basketball season got off to a good start when Vinton defeated Urbana 29-26 in the first game of the SGUSOIL Page Four REPORTS With the coming ot winter came thoughts of Christmas and the various school organizations began to plan Christmas programs.

One organization that has had a lull-time iob this year is the Arrow Staff. It began work last tall when Mr. Lagomarcino selected a group of seniors to carry out this proiect. With Charles Holland as editor the staff worked industriously throughout the year until the annual was finished in May. 1 This year the Arrow took an entirely different and original lorm and the staff have done their best to make it a success. Bill Caldwell, as photographer, could be seen darting about with a Cum- era trying to tind the right angle to snap the pictures. Kathryn Bickel and lunior Mease were photography editors. Evelyn Liebsch, as business manager, had plenty ot brain exercise in taking care of financial affairs. Don Brickley and lack MacAl1ister, sports editors, were kept busy with athletics. Ruth Glass iound more than enough to keep her occupied in the position oi feature editor. Guinevere Cantonwine, assistant editor, lent a hand in telling all concerning the activities and organ- izations ot VHS. After going through the usual ordeal of arranging and re-arrangniq, writing and re-writing, the diliiculties were overcome and the result was an Arrow which the Staff hopes you'1l be proud to own.

It has been their duty to present the students' views to the faculty ques- tions dealing with school affairs and to produce closer cooperation between the students and the faculty. Iohn Davis was elected president to lead the council in its many services throughout the year. Other officers elected were Bob Hilliard, vice-president and Charles Holland. secretary-treasurer. Under the patient guidance of their sponsor, Mr. Macl-Xllister, who acted as the representative of the faculty, the council met weekly to discuss the current school problems. It supervised the many activities of the various organizations besides sponsoring many of its own, such as W. P. A. week and numerous dances. It sponsored the sale of war bonds and stamps to each student. These sales amounted to over S2,000. The Student Council attempts to bring the administration, the student body, and the council itself into closer harmony with each other. lt was with this in mind that a new constitution was framed and put into operation this year. The result of the student council's efforts has been to help make a better functioning school. school. Page Eight P RPLE A D GOLD ,se Wimna M5365 Mamie lst I-'tow-Miss Mcllrath, Francine Kruse.

G. means something besides soap. Throughout the year you looked to the Purple and Gold to keep you informed about school events and activities. The sports and features were eagerly read by all and, of course, no one missed the last page, the gossip section. This year's P. 51 G. had a very capable and energetic staif headed by Nancy Hartman as editor and Pat Milroy as assistant editor. Miss Woolverton had charge of editing and Miss Mc- Urath supervised production. At Christmas time the staii was rewarded for its good work by being given a tree treat at Conder's. In March, the staff presented an assembly program in the form of a musical quiz. Each staff member wrote out questions which had popular tunes as their answers. Cookie Mor- rison's orchestra was on hand to give the contestants a clue by playing part of the songs. The winner. Ianet Miller, received a free subscription to the P. 6 G. for the rest of the year.

Twenty years aqo the Vinton chapter ol the National Honor Societv was organized. Students wearing the National Honor Society pin are recognized all over the United States. In many cases it is as good as a letter ot recommendation. Each year the faculty choose members of the junior and senior classes to receive this distinction. In order to quality lor membership, students must iuliill the four ideals of the organization-scholarship, leadership. character, and service. Being elected to the National Honor Society is the crowning achievement oi the high school careers of those students who can meet the requirements. Iuniors elected to the society last year were Charles Holland. Nancy Hartman. Don Brickley, and lack McDowell. This year these members installed iuniors and seniors. The Vinton chapter is called Sigma Lambda Gamma. This name was adopted in 1941. Page Ten V CLUB IS! ROW-MVS!!! Yerkes.

The purpose oi this organization is to stimulate interest in athletic activities and to promote good sportsmanship on the part of the players US well as the lans. This year Dick Byam was elected to serve as president. Stanley McCctleb and Lloyd Hhoads were elected vice-president and secretary-treasurer respectively. At homecoming time the boys put their heads together to elect a sports queen to be crowned between halves at the homecoming game. Phyllis Dick was chosen to hold the coveted title this year.

No one could pass a single day without seeing or hearing something from this organization. During the autumn season you couldn't miss the marching band parading up and down the streets after school every night. A special feature of the marching band was the llashy twirling section which was heartily received by all football fans. At the pep meetings and at all the home basketball games the school spirit was stimulated by music furnished by the pep band. Later in the year you heard the various chamber groups and solos practicing in different parts of the building before and after school. Then, of course, you could always hear the whole band tooting away fourth period. Under the baton of Mr. Kosowsky the band successfully presented iive concerts during the year. On March 24 the home contest was held. Mr. A. R. Edgar, director of the band at Iowa State College at Ames was iudge. A limited number of contest- ants were chosen to represent V. H. S. at the pre-state contest held on April 7. Those receiving superior ratings in this contest participated in the state contest, April 27 and 28, at Marion. Page Thirteen G. A.

V. Club, or Girls' Athletic V Club. lt's membership includes seventeen energetic junior and senior girls and their equally peppy sponsor, Miss Humke. The officers who have very capably served the Club this year are: Florence Campbell, presi- dent: Marge Richardson, vice-president: lean Burkhart, secretary-treasurer. The aim of every member is to earn enough points to receive a letter, which requires 250 points. This year they have adopted the state point system. This differs slightly with regard to par- ticipation, skill, and leadership. Meets are held once a month, and the members have enioyed many delightful parties. Asn sisted by the Student Council and the Arrow Staff. the G. A. V. girls sold refreshments at the county basketball tournament. They were also the sponsors ofa school dance. The Club sponsors an intramural program designed to stimulate interest in sportsmanship and organize a wholesome program ot physical activities. Their athletic schedule includes volleyball, basketball, softball, and hiking. In May the annual banquet is held and awards are presented.

SENIORS IUNIORS SOPHOMORES FRESHMEN Thirty-nine girls were out lor basketball this year. Each class had seven practices, each one being an hour and a hall long. During these practices Miss Humke worked hard with the girls and showed them many new skills they could use. During the practices she watched each girl closely, so she would be prepared to chose the teams for the tournaments. Eight members from each class were chosen to represent the team. The members were chosen because of their skill and their improved skill and the number of practices that they had attended. This year the seniors won the cup. They also won it when they were iuniors. The Winners went through the tournament without a loss. The juniors were only beaten once ,that being by the seniors. The sophomore group won over the energetic freshmen team in a very close game to win third place for themselves. During the tournament the seniors won 3 games, the iuniors Z. sophomores 1. and the freshmen 0. The girls played a curtain raiser at one of the boys games this year. The underclassmen organized a team and gave the seniors a goodlight before losing the game. The score was 18 to 25.

Miss Popoii has spent the past year in developing the vocal cords of our little songbirds. This year there were both a Boys' and Girls' Glee Club with fifty-live members in all. The vocal groups started the year oti right by presenting a musical review called Accent on Swing. This dynamic show which was a success from start to iinish, was arranged in four scenes: The Darky scene: the Moonlight scene: the Western scene: the Finale. The vocal groups also furnished the music for the Thanksgiving and Christmas assembly programs. On December 17 the Girls' and Boys' Glee Clubs gave a Christmas vesper service which included several religious numbers and Christmas hymns. Several small groups sang at the Youth Center. In February the Glee Clubs put on a concert, and started rehearsals for the minstrel. Alter March 18 they began to work in earnest on numbers for the music contest. In the Girls' Glee Club, Shirley Fry fills the president's shoes with Carol Harper as social secretary and Colleen Gordon as librarian. lack MacAllister is president of the Boys' Glee Club and lim Wagner is social chairman.

Fourteen members, eight seniors and six iuniors, make up what is known as the T. N. T. Club. In this case the abbreviation, T. N. T. stands for Tomorrow's New Teachers, and not for trinitroto- luene, the explosive. The club, which is sponsored by Miss Knipfer, holds meetings the third Monday of every month. The obiect ol these meetings is to get better acquainted, to familiarize the girls with Normal Training work, and to develop a spirit of cooperation. If you want to know it they have lun, iust ask any member. In February the Normal Training girls presented an assembly program. The iirst part of the program represented a T. N. T. meeting and the requirements ofthe Normal Training Program were discussed. Later Ruth Glass and Margaret Benson entered the scene dressed in old-fashioned costumes. They gave many interesting facts concerning the Vinton school system in the early days. The girls chose Charlotte Mitchell to be their president this year. Donna Iohnson was elected vice--president this year: Glenith Hurst, secretary, and Doris Walker, treasurer.

Everyone was greatly alarmed one morning to see a number oi ireshman girls coming to school attired in housecoats with such articles as towels and toothbrushes tied around their waists, and wooden sandals on their feet. After further inquiry, it was discovered that these strange creatures were new members of the Latin Club and were being initiated. The Latin Club, which is under the sponsorship ot Miss Boqard, is composed of nineteen Iirst year and seven second year members. It is a social organization and holds meetings on the second Monday of each month. There is usually a business meeting followed by social activities. At each meeting they try to use Latin in some way, such as singing songs, playing games, or conducting part of the business meeting in Latin. The Latineers also 'sponsored a school dance and went on a sleigh ride. At their parties. which were enioyed by all. they danced, played ping-pong and other games, and had refreshments. Miss Boqard was always ready to lend a helping hand and to ioin in the fun. The presidency was ably filled by Ianet St. Clair. She was assisted by Alvin Brickley as vicefpresident and Betty Hoeile as secretary-treasurer.

Under the sponsorship of Miss Mcllrath, fourteen senior girls and two boys have formed a commercial club, calling themselves the Greggenites. They hold meetings every two weeks on Thursday evenings and have had many rousing good times during the year. All members have earned certificates for typing and shorthand efficiency and the following have had additional honors: Mary Wallace -, ---Order ot Gregg Artistic Shorthand l Donna Walter --- ---Order of Gregg Artistic Typists Evelyn Liebsch - -----------------.----- ------- -Complete Theory Shorthand Drill Phyllis Dick was the very efticient president of the Greggenites. Irene Conklin held the posi- tion of vice-president, and Donna Walter was secretary-treasurer. The colors selected by the Club are black and red. Red snapdraqons were voted to be their flower. Their unusual motto is, Eight and nine--V-type and dine.

Under the capable guidance of Mr. Cree they sponsored parents' meetings and squad parties. In December they presented an assembly program. Several members gave short talks on agri- culture and the F. F. A. organization. Mr. Cree led the group in singing. In February they col- laborated with Vinton's tive machinery dealers to sponsor a see it yourself day. This consisted of an afternoon and evening program with movies on machinery maintenance and repair. This year they have continued the point system of letter awards tor the upper halt ot the senior boys. They also make application for state degrees. One of their many activities is promot- ing soil conservation. In addition to parties their recreational activities consist of playing basketball with other chapters.

This year thirty library 1asses. assisted by Mrs. McAtee, took over the important iob ol keeping V. H. S. literary material in order. In addition to checking out books during the period to which they were assigned, the girls put in extra time outside of school by helping with catalog- ing, iiling, and mending of books. In addition to many new books purchased by the school. students enioyed the use ot Several shipments of traveling library books. The Students, as a whole, cooperated with the librarians in bringing books back on time. They heard their names read in the morning announcements and were charged a tine of one cent for each day the book was overdue-what a bank balance there was! The president of this energetic group was Evelyn Liebsch. who had the iob ot assigning the librarians to different periods every time a change in schedule occurred. Ruth Glass was vice-pres- ident and lean Burkhart was secretary-treasurer. The Library Club sponsored the iirst school dance of the year which brought more than tour- teen dollars into the treasury. This year two boys iinally broke the ice and took over the libraries during an assembly in which there were no girls.

Il, while passing through the halls. you heard a heated dispute qbout whether eighteen year olds should be allowed to vote, you could be pretty sure the argument was between two or more debaters. Or. it you observed several students industriously at work iotting down notes on those little white cards, you should have known that proof day was in the otting. and every contention would have to have evidence. This year the question for debate was- Resolved: the legal voting age should be reduced to eighteen years. Under the skillful direction of Mr. Lagomarcino the debaters have learned a great deal about the principles ol debate. They have developed speaking ability and have learned to organize their material and think clearly while on their ieet. They have received much helplul training in argumentation and theory. They have learned to present their ideas logically and have developed poise in delivering them. Through intrasquad debates they have had an opportunity to put their knowledge into practice. Debate is the newest V. H. S. activity. this being only the second year that it has been a part ol the school program.

After a great deal of searching the vacancy was filled by Bill Maynard and the cast resumed work more diligently than ever. The play was presented on May ll and was thoroughly enioyed by all those attending. Page Twenty-Six M ACTUR lst How-Ruth Glass, Kathryn Bickel, Pat Glass, Shirley Reisser, Erma Floyd, Phyllis Lutz.

Three years ago a group of dramatic enthusists organized a club called the Ham Actors. This Year the name was carried on by f0l'fY'eiQht actors and actresses of V. H. S. under the capable direc- tion of Mrs. McAtee. Florence Campbell served the club as president and was ably assisted by Iris Davis as viCe-preS- ident and Evelyn Liebsch as secretary-treasurer. At first the Ham Actors had a little trouble with the man-power shortage, but finally enough boys came out to make up an all-boy cast in Tell It To Tommy. In November an all-school play. Days Without Daddy. was presented. This was a sparkling comedy based on the troubles of a family whose father has gone to war. ln Ianuary a group of three one-acts were given, including ln a Bookshop, l Pledge Alleg- iance, and Tell It To Tommy. The last oi the three was entered in the Iowa High School Speech contest. The Ham Actors also presented the Christmas play which was entitled How the Great Guest Came. Nancy Hartman, Mary Tobin. and Bill Esderts were selected from a preliminary contest to enter the Iowa High School Speech contest in interpretive reading.

I A triumph for the vocal department was the musical, Accent on Swing. .Miss Popoil and the entire Glee Club worked tirelessly during Glee Club praciice and at special rehearsals to make the swing show something to be proud of. ' N Finally came the big night and the cast were all in their proper costumes and places waiting for the show to begin. The curtain rose on the Darkey Scene which, like all the other scenes. was appropriately costumed. The second scene was the Cowboy Scene. For the last two scenes-the Moonlight Scene and the Finale , the girls added glamour by donning formals. In addition to the choruses there were a number of solos by both boys and girls. , Everyone that saw it will agree that Accent on Swing was the musical show ol the year.

At the beginning of the basketball season about fifty prospective V. H. S. athletes turned out lor intramural basketball. Their supervisor. Mr. Pye, was on hand to give the boys a tew pointers on the game. The boys got together one noon and chose eight captains to pick the teams. A schedule was worked out by means ot which each team was allowed to play each and every other team. These games were played on the average of twice a week. The winner oi these rousing games was Bob Hanneman's team. which did not lose any of its eight games. Lloyd Horak's team was runner-up, losing only one game. Since the basketball tournaments were held in Vinton. the intramurals were unable to hold another complete round of games. The intramural games not only give the players a chance to enjoy themselves but also in- creases their interest in sports. Many of this year's intramural players will compete tor a posi- tion on next year's varsity squad.

You would hear on crisp autumn aiternoons the staccato bark of quarterbacks, the thud of cr hard tackle, or the grunts and groans of a lineman struggling to get in for a tackle. The fellows really worked, and many tirst year men along with the veterans were constantly in the thick of things. The season was a successful one, although the team was beset with iniuries-three veterans, Selken, Byam, and Rinker all out at once. The team will feel the loss of its seniors next year, but the material com- ing up points to a good season.

Page Forty-one ENIQR CLASS OFFICER BILL BERRY CHARLES HOLLAND HM BANSE Vice-President President Seecretary-Treasurer CLASS HISTQRY In September ot 1941 the usual mass of .green entered V. H. S. They somehow sur- vived the various forms of initiation-such as being put on tountains and under showers- and soon began to like high school as well as their tormentors, the sophomores. Before long they ioined clubs and organizations and began to take an active part in school activities. The year passed very quickly and the next fall they were sophomores and had the plea- sure ot torturing the little freshies as theynow called them. 'Nothing exceptional hap- pened during their sophomore year except that in the spring a few had the privilege ot serv- ing at the iunior-senior banquet. - Their iunior year was a very busy one. One of the iirst things they did was to pick out their class rings and order them. Their main proiect was the iunior-senior banquet. In order to raise money for this event they sold Christmas cards and staged a very suc- cessful iunior carnival. Then came the long, hard weeks of planning and finally the ban- quet itself. This year they were advanced to the rank oi seniors and entered a year packed with activities. First and foremost on the list was the Arrow which required most of the year to complete. Another important proiect was the senior class play which had unusual diliicul- ties, owing to the lack of a leading man. Then, oi course, there was the business of being measured for caps and gowns and selecting class colors, flower, motto, announcements, and cards. May ll was the last day of school for the seniors and May 13 was baccalaureate. Finally came commencement on May 18, the day which marked the last chapter in high school experiences.
