Warrensburg Latham High School - Cardinal Yearbook (Warrensburg, IL)

Text from Pages 1 - 128 of the 1948 volume:

DEDICATION The Senior Class of 1948 takes pride in dedicating the 1948 Cardinal to our Coach, Mr. Drummond. In the years Mr. Drummond has been with us he has always willinply and unselfishly offered his services for the betterment of our school. Mr. Drummond’s outstanding ability to coach our beys In athletics has been proven many times by the fine type of sportsmanship displayed by our teams and by the hiph repard which the boys have for him. 77© will always be proud to remember Mr. Drummond as Coach . 5 sented. They endeavored to plan a Blueprint of our students’ future lives. On this page is an outline of the world. Cn the following division pages the world is narrowed down from the United States to W.C.H.5. Included is an outline of the new unit school dis-. Every student will benefit advantageously from this 7 trie t proposed now system because this larger school program means that there will be a greater student population under one school board. The community unit school district includes all the grades one through twelve enabling the board and administrative staff to set up and operate a complete and unified school program for more efficient use of equipment, school buildings, and the instructional staff. With this larger pupil population such things as speech, art, and vocation trades classes will be taught. On several of the pages in the Students' section are outlines of professions and occupations many of our classmates will enter. Perhaps some day in the near future we will hear of many of our students becoming cutstanding in their field of work due to the conscientious guidance of cur principal, Mr. Huns, our teachers, and through the students' own ingenuity and ambition. The new re-organization process, which has been going on for the past two years, is an example of our Democratic system--the people decide and carry out plans they think are most efficient, most desirable, and that contributes to the common welfare. The yearbook is something that every student will wish to treasure the rest of his life. In the years to come everyone will want to lock back at their happy experiences and see what they, their class, and the whole school did many years before. With these thoughts in mind, we hope you will see how and why we carried this theme throughout our yearbook. As you look through the bock we hope you enjoy and fully understand it. 8 The Editors CONTENTS Administration..............................................Page 11 Faculty Board of Education Acknowledgements Cus todian School Lunch Program Transportation Students...........................................................Page 21 Seniors Juniors Sophomores Freshmen Alumni Curricular. ......................................................Page 53 Agrculture Business Education Home Economics Languages I-'athameti cs Fusic Social Sciences Extra Curricular. . . . ......................................Page 69 Sports Organizations Functions.....................................................Page 97 Calendar Parties Plays Autographs....................................................Page 199 Index,........................................................Page 114 Class!fied Alphabetical 9 Admin i o trail i n united tc heir u.: future. stands Jen cur FACULTY If one would hapoen to stoo by the high school after school the first Wednesday of the month, they would orobably see the faculty sitting around discussing the news of the day and of the world. But seriously, they do accomplish more than that. The first few minutes of the meeting are spent handling administrative matters such as planning parties and programs. The remaining time in the one and one-half hour meeting is spent discussing a topic or topics chosen for discussion at the faculty meetings during the current school year. In addition to these monthly meetings, a faculty banquet is held each year. The faculty, board members, bus-drivers and their families all attend. This gives everyone a chance to become better acquainted. A short arogram or movies are given which is of interest to everyone present. All of the faculty members participated in outstanding activities during the summer months. Those who attended universities this summer are as follows: Mr. Muns and Mrs. Roark attended Columbia University in New York City; Mr. Anderson attended the University of Illinois for a period of eight weeks, and Mr. Hanover finished his masters degree at the same university this past summer. Mr. Roark attended the University of Indiana at Bloomington, Indiana. Miss Mackey took an interesting trip through the New England states and Miss Hostler went on a trip in August to Washington Island in Michigan. Mr. Drummond assisted the Recreational Department activities in Decatur this summer and Mr. McIntosh worked at a boy’s camp in Minnesota which is located about twenty miles from the Canadian border. Mr. Anderson, Mr. Drummond and Mr. McIntosh also attended classes at the University of Illinois each Saturday during the school year. 13 Arthur C. Muns, A.B., B.S., IvI.S.

During the summer he prints and cleans so that in the fall the inside of the school will look like new. He always keeps the grass neatly cut, which adds to the beauty of our school. While we are in school he cleans up after us. Many of us are so careless, but we never hear him complain. Seldom do we hear him speak. He is always busy doing something that will make our school a nicer one to attend. Our thanks to I.r. Pease who has faithfully served Warrensburg for so many years. Our thanks also goes to Mrs. Thompson who always has a good dinner for us. She always has a pleasant word and her meals have very pleasant tastes. She spends all day down in the kitchen working so that we may have a good nutritious meal as well as a tempting one. Thro gh the four years wo have been here she has missed very few days on the job fixing a good meal. She is the one who washes and wipes all of the dishes that we use. Mrs. Thompson will never know how much we have appreciated having her as our school cook. To the school board we wish to give a vote of thanks. They have always helped in every way they could to make Warrensburg High School a better place to attend. They have carefully chosen teachers so that they might provide us with good instruction. They have given us many modern conveniences which have made our learning much easier and more pleasant. They have kept the school in good repair. Thanks to the school board from the O'ass oi forty-eight. The bus drivers also deserve a vote of thanks. They drive +he bus every morning to transport us to and from school. The bus drivers have been conscientious in carrying out safety rules. They have driven the late buses so that students would have transportation home when there was athletic practice and other activities after school. Our present drivers are Mrs. Rosamond Janvrin, Donald Witt, Flavus Harrell, Robert May, Clarence Rau, and Raymond Smith.

Operator: Please connect me with 'Varrensburg 92. Miss Camp? Petty Ann fillets, Detective Agency. License No. 223 reporting about The Flame'. It was 5 o'clock, closing time, and just as I was leaving, the telephone rang. Picking up the receiver and not having a chance to say hello, a mysterious and unknown voice asked me if I wanted to play a little game for 10,000. Few people refuse such an offer and I am certainly not one of these few. As soon as I had given my answer,they began the story about the burning of the pitz Hotel at New York. Chief of Police, Virgil Ellington, had closed the case and booked Merle ’Ventwc rth as the arsonist, so of course, I was interested to hear more about it. She went on to s;y why she wa3 interested in the case and was about to reveal some of the important facts when the operator cut our conversation. I tried to trace the phene call but could not. After a sandwich, I decided to go to see the remainder of the building. I found the register of the first floor which stated all the names of the ' 'burg Class of'48 scheduling a class meeting the following day. I then fouro the owner, Harold Barnett and his lovely wife, Bernie Marsh. Getting very little information from .them, I questioned Imo-£ene Kennedy, a worker of the hotel. She was afraid of being involved at first, but I gained her confidence and she gave information that had not been given tc the police. The employees of the hotel were secretly meeting, discussing a strike, and since Merle was the head janitor, he could roc have been guilty. I began checking the names on the register. Vilma Brett, a fashion designer in New York, gave u foolproof alibi that she was designing a gown for Mrs. Gene Davis, the former Patty Beck, for her latest movie, directeo by her husband. Gene Davi3. These two were also, on the register and therefore eliminated the three. Next, I questioned James Maddox end Beverly Humphries, Principal and Secretary of Varrensburg High School. They were present at the ti it of the burning but I didn't suspect them because they would nivt no motive. 1 then came across the name of Eldon Cooper, grease monkey. He had been attending a meeting of the Grease Monkeys Union and that cleared him of suspicion. The name cf Marilyn Lawrence mot my eye. She was a specialist in red hair dye, and had worked many times for Bernie, fixing her hair, now red. They had had a little trouble about the last time; Eernie claimed she ruined her hair purposely, and Marilyn said it must have been the machinery. After questioning, Marilyn admitted her secret love for Harold, the owner of the hotel. I then decided tc talk tc the coach cf 'V'burg, Deraid Brown. He was spending a quiet evening at the movie with his lady friend Mary Dickmeier. She now had her own little dress shop, competing with the 'new look . Their alibi was checked and proved. This case was becoming mere and more complicated. I could see nc connection between the people and the arson. But since I had taken the case, I decided tc go on with the investigation. ’text on the list were the names of the former Nancy Loveless and Laura lusgrsves, who both were now married. They had left their hemes in barrens burg tc come to the meeting planned to be held tomorrow. Then, Mr. and Mrs. Eddie Humphries. Mrs. Humphries was the former Elizabeth Hunt. They had once owned the hotel but were forced to seel because of financial problems. They didn’t seem to know much about the burning. The names of Eileen Gill, Janice Ke3ter, and Martha Hursh met my eye. They were listed together so I met with them in one of the rooms. Eileen was new a music teacher and had her own little sbhool in the suburb of 'Varrensburg. Janice Kejter had taken Miss lackey's position in the school faculty teaching Social Science subjects. I had 3een Martha’s name appearing in the papers quite regularly since her election of the First ’Voman Mayor of 'Varrensburg. She told me of the improvements that had taken place in the town. This was all sc interesting but helped me none on the case. I went to sec Hazel Horn and Vanda parrill. Hazel was now the owner of THE HORN’S CORN J(INT, and anda was writing the script for the Lone Hanger Program. I enjoyed my visit but didn't learn any more from them. I made a date with Catherine Sims to meet after the performance of her friend, Shirley villoughby,now a professicnal skater. She certainly made a woncerful performance but I knew I must forget the entertainment and get busy cn the case. Catherine was an airline hosteg3 and wasn't in New York at the time of the fire and Shirley was practising rfer her performance the following nite, Jcann Missler, new lobbing for better bottle caps on PepsiCola in 'Vashington, had reserved a room but had not yet arrived. Ncrabel Gardner, who was now studying nursing, relieved many who were hurt in the fire. I talked to her but didn't suspect her. I had gone through the list of names on the register. I thought I might pay a visit to Merle ' entworth, new being held at the City Jail, ’e had quite a long talk. The: suspected him because of his love for Eernie, 2nd who was planning a devorse from Harold. Merle had been 3een quite often with Bernie and it was thought that they would get married on the insurance they would collect from the fire. I believed his innocence and was desperate to help him. I remembered Edgar Baer, who was over-looked up tc this time. He hae made his fame in writing and had produced several masterpieces, .vhich were now the best sellers of the year. I paid him a visit at his heme but he appeared to be ill so I didn’t question him. I locked through his study room ana found many of his books, dealing with all kinds of fantastic material on all subjects. I also found papers that showed he must have been ing on a new book on fires and fire techniques. T then questioned Ec'gar whe seemed to remember nothing and submitted him for an examination. Upon this examination, he was found to be insane, due tc excess strain on the brain. He admitted his guilt for the purpose of adding a new chapter in his bock. Merle was then freed ai.d Edgar admitted to the Pats in Belfry Mental Institution. This closed the case, sc good-night. Miss Camp. 32 CLASS WILL We, the Seniors of '.’arrensburg Community High School, of the Town cf Warrensburg, County of Macon and State of Illinois, being of sound mind and memory, do heieby make, publish and declare this to be our last will and testament, heieby revoking any wills heietcfcre made by us.

AGRICULTURE In Agriculture, there are four courses offered -- Agriculture I, Soil and Crops, for Freshmen; Agriculture II, Farm Management for Sophomores; Agriculture III, Farm Mechanics and Agriculture IV, Farm Management, for Juniors and Seniors. Only three subjects are taught each year alternating Agriculture III and IV. This year Ag. IV is offered. In connection with the regular Ag. courses offered, each boy is required to take a home project. Examples of such projects are gilts and litters, dairy heifers, beef heifers and steers, sheep, poultry, and crop projects. The purpose of the home project work is to give each boy an opportunity to put into practice acceptable.and recommended practices of good management, which he has learned in the class room. It offers each boy the ooportuni-ty of exercising his abilities outside the class room, and offers unlimited possibilities. It is often mentioned as a method whereby a boy mav grow into arming. Each year a boy has an opportunity to exhibit his project at a sectional vocational F.F.A. air. Twenty or more schools are eligible to compete in this Dair , anf 0(71 the 1500 offered, Var-rensburg Ag. boys won a total of $220. This money is appreciated by the boys, but we try to place emphasis on the fact that the good livestock which enabled us to win this money is the most valuable. Likewise we emphasize the fact that a boy must have the ability to seloct and raise desirable and acceptable type of livestock before it will win a premium. Another phase of our Ag. work is that of Fbture Fhrmer work. This organization is composed of boys taking Ag., and is designed to give the boys a chance to plan, cooperate, and work together. The Ag. boys take a great deal of interest in grain and livestock judging and this past year won many red and blue ribbons in the sectional and state judging contest. Our Fat Stock team consisting of Merle Wentworth, Edgar Baer and Paul Albert were one of the ten high teams in the state judging contest, and had to return for the second contest to determine which team would represent Illinois in the National contest. To encourage Agriculture and project work, boys are given medals for producing good projects. The Senior boy who is voted the most active and aggressive F.F.A. member, gets his name engraved on a large placque donated by the Dekalb Hybird Seed Corn Company. Harold '7entworth s name will be engraved for the year 1946-1947. 55 BUSINESS EDUCATION The Business Education Department of our school offers excellent commercial ccurmes. Mr. Huns teaches Typing I. Mr. Anderson teaches the remaining courses offered. General Business is offered for Freshmen. The subject is a survey type of course introducing the students to various business activities and practices. From an occupational standpoint, it helps them to view business activities relating to a life work. This course will enable students to gain knowledge of business operation and how to be better and wiser consumers. Typing I is offered to Sophomores who learn the fundamentals of typing. At the end of Typing I they should be capable enough to take care of any personal work they might have tc dc. For vocational purposes it 3s necessary to take Typing II. In Typing I the students learn to set up different types of business letters, tabulations, and manuscript writing. It is an asset to students who go on tc college regardless of whether or not he uses typing for personal or business affairs later on. Typing II is offered for students in their junitr and senior year. Their immediate aim is to pass the 45 word a minute requirement to earn full credit. The students are presented with typical everyday office problems which they learn to 3clve. Bookkeeping provides the student with bookkeeping principles to serve his own personal need. For anyone considering bookkeeping or accountancy as a career this course introduces them to the principles and techniques. Shorthand I teaches the student to write shorthand fluently and transcribe accurately. Considerable time is spent taking notes from dictation of business letters. The student's aim is to pass the 60 word per minute requirement and transcribe accurately. Business Machines introduces the students tc the basic machines that are used in many offices. The student masters fundamental arithmetic processes on the following types of machines: key driven calculator, rotary calculator, adding and listing machines of which there aie two--full key and ten key types. The students develop understanding and skill for efficient operation of the following types: machine transcription, and the duplica- tors of which there are three types--stenc.il, liquid process and gelatin types. Learning the fundamental rules of filing and applying these rules through the use of practice sets is a phase developing procedures desired in efficient file clerks. Also in the course time is set aside for individual study of principles, vocational study, and office procedures for personal enlightenment, and understanding. 56 HOME ECONOMICS Mrs. Roark is the head of the Home Economics Department. She had two classes. In Home Ec I nutritution and the preparation of food was studied. Making of clothes and good grooming was taught in Home Ec II. To develop the homemaking students into persons capable of shaping for themselves satisfying home and family lives is the aim of the department. The Home Economics students feel that education for homemaking is just as necessary and important as education for any other vocation as they will be responsible for the homes of the future. The students were exposed daily to units of work that would increase their knowledge, develop their skills, establish techniques, values, attitudes, and idiols necessary for successful democratic living. They prepared and served meals in family groups of five, becoming accustomed to the different methods of meal service—English, Russian, and Compromise; they studied about table setting and decorations and have adapted their learning to the table plans for their meals; the girls learned the importance of maintaining pleasant dispositions and developing wholesome, attractive personalities; they found that a study of textiles could be of great help in purchasing material for their sewing projects; although their sewing techniques v ere far from professional they discovered that making their own balarina skirts, Gibson' Girls blouses, and cotton prints was a definite economy. It is the hope that they may, today and in the future, apply the school routine learning adeptly as members of their families and communities. 57 LANGUAGES Engllsh The freshman English class this year was composed of twenty-three students under instruction of Miss Hostler. During the year they studied in their grammar bocks and literature books. In their literature books, one interesting thing they read was the poem on Juluis Oaesar. The Sophomore English class this year was made up of seventeen students under instruction of Miss Hostler. They also read in their literature and grammar books. In literature they read some autobiography by Florence Nightingale, The Junior English Class this year was composed 'of twenty-three students under instruction of Mr. Macintosh. They read out of their grammar books and literature books also. In their literature bocks they read several stories under Comtemporary American Literature. The Senior English Class this year was made up of twenty- two students under the instruction of Mr. Macintosh. During the year the Seniors studied in their literature bocks. Cne poem especially enjoyed was Macbeth by William Shakespeare. Latin II There was a class of eleven students under the instruction of Miss Mackey taking Latin II. One of the favorite stories in Greek mythology is the tale of the Argonauts, a band of ycung heros who sailed with Jason in the ship Argo, in search of the Golden Fleece. Miss Mackey sent for some mythology books. After they arrived the students then immediately began their study of mythology. Latin is a very hard subject, and it takes hours of studying to master it. A student who does his very best in Latin, will never regret it later. Little does he calulate this very subject may be his life work. 58 MATHEMATICS The courses in mathematics in W. C. H. S. are all elective. These courses consist of Algebra, Plane Geometry, Commercial Arithmetic, Advanced Algebra, Solid Geometry and Trigonometry, all of which are taught by hr. Drummond, with the exception of Plane Geometry which is taught by hr. ftoark. The mathematics courses in general are academic and are not meant to prepare the student for the business world on graduation. These courses are requisite for college entrance in certain fields such as engineering, science, chemistry and others. Algebra I is open to all freshmen who have done good work in arithmetic in the grades or those who plan to go on to college.. This year there are twenty-seven students taking the course. This course makes easy the transition from specific relationships in arithmetic to their generalization and thence to their statement in algebraic symbols. The Plane Geometry class has twenty-one enrolled in it this year. This course is open to students who have had first year algebra. The student is led to appreciate the importance of definitions, assumptions, hypothesis, and conclusions. Formal proofs of theorems and understanding of the nature and method of deductive proof is built up. The student is required to think through his work, to learn by his own activity and abundant practice is provided in discriminating between valid and fallacious conclusions. • The third year course in mathematics is Advanced Algebra, the first semester and Solid Geometry alternates with Plane Trigonometry, the second semester. One purpose of this course is to clarify and extend the ideas with which the student worked in the first course. As in the first year algebra the student strives to get a more complete understanding of arithmetic. Such understanding consists not merely in knowing how to perform the operations of arithmetic, but also in knowing whv- the rules for performing them are what they are. In Solid Geometry, by gradual, easy steps, the student is introduced to the study of proofs in three -dimensions. Careful inductive developments of new concepts are part of the plan to have the student think for hi-mselfy learn by activity. Trigonometry treats of the relations between sides and angles of triangles and of those between certain functions of an arc or-angle measured by ratios of pairs of sides of a right-angled triangle. Included are problems with military and naval applications. Commercial Arithmetic is strictly' a vocational subject, open to upper classmen. Commercial arithmetic is a foundation subject for most of the clerical posltipns in an office. Much of the work in the business office consists of making arithmetical computations . of various kinds. This course in applied business arithmetic develops the ability to make them correctly and speedily. 61 MUSIC The music department this year has consisted of three groups which ere Bend, Girls' Glee Club, and Boys' Glee Club They have been under the direction of Mr, McIntosh The -band has met every Tuesday and Thursday during the third period. The band took part in the Open House program, Christmas program, the band festival at Mt. Zion, and tood part in the Cancer Drive by playing or radio station V7S0Y. Cn April 3, two band members attended the annual District contest in Clinton, They were Joann Henderson ana Lucille Brown. Both made good performances and' brought home second place. The Girls' Glee Club also has made some good performances this year. A group of 24 girls went to the annual district glee club contest in Clinton on the tenth of April. The girls were very proud of the second place which they brought home. Three soloists from the glee club went to Clinton for a contest. They were: Janice Cooper, Marjorie Lehn, and Eileen Gill. Janice and Marjorie brought home second place but Eileen, much to her surprise, came out with a first. Eileen went to the state contest at Macomb on April 30th. There have been two groups of Eoys' Glee Clubs this year. One group meets on Mondays and Wednesdays ninth period and the other group meets on Tuesdays and Thursdays sixth period. The beys' first performance was at the Christmas program. They did a nice job. At our Washington-Loncoln Day program they gave a sjleudid performance. Our boys this year have made wonderful progress. Maybe some day we'll have some opera singers from heir group. Vho knows???????????? 62 PHYSICAL 6 BIOLOGICAL SCIENCES In General Science it was the underlying purpose to acquaint the students with a few of the fundamentals of Science, constantly striving for pupil interest and participation- fending off an easily acquired feeling of repugnance and distaste. The various phases of Science, Astronomy, Physics, Chemistry, Physiology, Botany, et al, were briefly presented, and abetted by experiments. The whole mass of information was impinged upon Freshmen and Freshwomen brains. The students who entered the Zoology and Botany class were more or less forewarned of the onslaughts to be made on their equinamity. Stalwart veterans of General Science, these intrepid few- persisted in their quest for knowledge, Scientific. They were rewarded or attacked, depending on your point of view, by dissection of grasshoppers, earthworms, clams, and frogs. There was an occasional field trip to remind them that Zoology and Botany combined is Biology, and Biology is the science of life, and that life was all about them. They plucked plants and peered at microscopic mysteries with calm eagerness. They read books and took tests and listened to dry lectures, but that, too, is life. Even further, the pupils that entered the Physics class were doubly forewarned, and yet they came a-seeking a special knowledge. Not satisfied with mere hypothical and vague tenets on which to base physical facts. They cudgeled their minds and parceled their time in order to gain information, hirrors, lenses, color, gases, liquids, automobiles, and photography were some of the interesting things which were studied. Different members of the class took over certain units of the work and gave a spontaneity and sparkle, a vigorous presentation of the material The mails learned, of course, as did the teacher that all learned was not Physics which leaves us dismayed. The important thing is we've met and found a. common ground of understanding and left with something we did not have when we came. 63 PHYSICAL EDUCATION The girls’ physical education for the year of 1947,consisted of many different activities. For the first five minutes of the period they had calisthentics. They had different kinds of exercises which will help our bodies to become stronger. During the first part of school they played softball, basketball, volley ball, and other enjoyable activities outdoors, inside the school while the weather is cold they engaged in basketball, volley ball basketball, and relays. They also had volley ball, basketball, and ping pong tournaments. During the first semester they had health on Wednesdays. In our health period,certain ones were assigned health reports to be given on in front of bhe class. They had their health periods on Fridays,when they didn't have them on Wednesdays, during the second semester. They were also shown some health movies and two of the movies were Body Defense Against Diseases and Social Dancing. One Wednesday, the physical education classes were given a lecture on Tuberculosis. This lecture was given by a nurse from the T. B. Sanitation. She also showed us a movie on the prevention and cure of tuberculosis and explained a chart for us on how this disease is spread. Mrs. Roak was our instructor and once in a while the girls did some social dancing. The boys' P. E. classes were held during periods'jBfh and-d9Qt this year. The Juniors and Seniors had the eight period and the Freshmen and Sophomor s had the ninth period. Both classes went outside until it got to cold and then t ey came inside. During basketball season the boys out or basketball go to one end ol the gym and the other boys go to the oposite end. The boys not out .or basketball usually ha’-e a v ry rough game at their end of the gym. The boys have not had as much calisthenics this year as they previlously have had. The classes at the beginning of the year vere not very even so there was a lot of transfering done and the Junior and Senior class has some Sophomore's in it. The P. E. classes are the one class that all the boys look forward to rom day to day. The boys are turned lose hete and can do as they want to. This is the main reason that the boys like this class so ell. Host of the boys drear1 or Uednesday to come be-ause it means that thei-bofrSwwlllsntttl efcotogdfcei© in their gym clothes and carry on with their gym activities on this day. Cn Vednesday the p.

Boys' 64 AL SCIENCES The Social Science cl sees are taught by hiss lackey, who has been teaching at W.C.H.S. for f ur years. The World History class has had a very interesting year. Although they were required to keep notssj they now agree that this only helped to make the course more w or th-while, inch stufe.t picked country in which he was especial..y interested and then made a scrapbook containing material about that country. Fir Open House the class was divided into panels, each of which selected a country that had jl'yed an important role in ancient History. Aie students then collected pictures to illustrate the country's ro.i.e in ancient history. World History is not required, and is offered to any Sophomore, Junior, or Senior who wishes to take it. The Juniors are now taking both Civics and Sociology in the course of a semester instead of seoar tely, as was done before. Miss Mackey believes this is much better. For Open House, the class was divided into committees which made posters and gathered material giving information on their subjects, which were elections and. oolitical parties, population trends, and the newspaper. Two book reports were required, during the year, also. During the vg r the Seniors saw many interesti i movies in Americ'n History. Two that they especially enjoyed were about the Negro farmer in the South, and another was about Lincoln's life while in office. For Open House they made maps to show how the Lest was settled and they also made flags to show the development of the flag to the present d y. few ■ e.oks after Christmas vacation, they learned that they would have to write term-papers Many different subjects a ere chosen to write about. The Seniors also had to vrito two book reports during the year, one fiction, and one non-fiction. American History is required before a student can graduate. 65 Edgar Baer Wilma Brett Martha Hursh Nancy Loveless Joann Missler Eetty Ann Willets JUNIORS Mary Brame Marjorie Lehn OR R, 4,5 SOPHOMORES Patricia Blythe Lucille Brown Barbara Dial Eetty Gulick Marcella Park Bobby Seftcn Patsy Stcutenbcrcugh Marilyn Watkins FRESHMEN Norma Albin Lloyd Austin Marilyn Ccle Dolores Dipper Georgiann Dingman Judith Gilman Arnold Galloway Carl Jchner Ann Rotz 4 O SENIORS Patty Beck Mary Dickmeier Norabel Gardner Marilyn Lawrence Shirley Willoughby JUNIORS Jo Ann Trusner SOPHOMORES George Albin James Hurtt Frank Lehn Joan Warner FRESHMEN Emily Armintrcut Robert Brame Lowell Joynt Arthur Lawrence David Nickerson Paul Ann Whited 66 jvinjujn c Students from II Unci 3 are outstanding in scholastic, athletic, and mus i c of fa. irs.

As training for such physical, mental and social development, sports have a great deal to offer in health, strength, vigor and character building. They afford an excellent opportunity for everyone to learn the technique of games and provide a chance for wholesome recreation. Through practice, a fondness for sports is developed which carries over into life and serves after graduation as a means for escaping the monotony of vocational routine. This is particularly desirable since modern life is providing more and more time for play and for leisure, which, like work is most profitable when planned and directed with knowledge and skill. The competition of games causes worries to be forgotten and care to disappear. It often makes the shut in develop interests outside of himself; the reserved--to discover aptitudes « which give him confidence, and the timid to find courage and comfort in association with others. Team work develops the cooperation so essential to successful living and happiness. Games wisely chosen and properly directed cultivate self-discipline and self-sacrifice. They demonstrate that hard work is the royal road to success. Sports stimulate quick thinking, improve physical development, promote agility, and instill obedience to constituted authority. 71 BASEBALL SCHEDULE V H September 12 Kenney (Here) 3 9 September 16 Stonington (Here) 9 12 September 19 Macon (There) 3 7 September 23 Niantic (There) 3 17 September 26 Mt.

The Cardinals traveled to Bethany for the Cenois Tourney during the Christmas vocation but were defeated by it. Zion 37-32. After the tournament the team won the next tvo games by beating Lovington 14-43 and Latham 52-39. But then against Argenta the boys played a winning game ell the way through but were defeated 31-30. They recovered from this loss by winning 5 straight gomes, Argenta • os the victim of this winning streak also by 36-32 V.'ith the last of January come the -aeon County Tourney. The team felt good before the tournament started but Haroa cooled them off in an overtime 48-46. The final conference grme of the season was with Hammond.

In the fall and spring, they preferred being out-of-doors and enjoying the nice, warm weather, even if they did just browse around the school grounds, but many of them liked active activities, so they had their choice of playing volley ball, basketball, baseball, softball, touch ball, or catch. Vvhen some pupils did not care to play, many of them sat on the grass in the shade and watched the activities from the side lines. During the cold, frosty winter months, played basket- ball, volley ball, and table tennis. The boy |||rually took over the activities and the girls watched and cheered for them. The boys had regular volley ball teams to play $bringsthe noon period. Coach Drummond made out these teams and'Aabpointed a captain, • 4 -U 4- A 4- 4- U H t -P wr « 75 Vo II e if kd If Tr a c k Firsv. How • Ynj Vantwcrth Eld ur Cooperr F ed Cavendar.

There were about twenty-five out for track this year. There were quite a few back from the S'-uad of last year’s team. Some of these had letters and a few of them did not have. This sport is the one where there are not as many out for it as there are most of the sports such as basketball and baseball. This sport calls for a good physical body. Each event has a special training that is required if you plan to be a success in that event. In order to get in shape as a old teammate would say is done by a lot of running. This is the best way to not only to get in shape but to keep in shape after you once get in shape. This sport requires that the person out. r it should take care of his body and by all means he should ifcfciO e a smoker. There were three track teams that had a mee This was not to much aompititicn for our bo away with an easy first. Porter was the high1 track meet.

The biggest majority of these boys were freshman and a great number of Scphncres. There were five letter men back from last years squad. These boys were Virgil Ellington, 'Valter Fonsler, Robert Blakeman, Gecrge Porter, and Richard Houk.

The boys have a few games scheduled this article goes to press they have only Marora. This was a easy game for the Cardinal 22 to 0 in favor of Varrens'ourg. 80 BasebaH ORGANIZATIONS Tn school there are many chances for learning new and better ways of doing things that interest students. Girls in various organizations can learn better methods of good grooming and of how to plan and improve teas and other parties which may be held during the school year. Boys have a chance to better themselves in farming methods, physical training, and public speaking, in addition to scholastic activities by joining different organizations. Both boys and girls have the chance to learn to take pictures, develop them and print them with the aid of the various equipment available. In the publishing of this the tventy-fifth issue of the Cardinal the work was divided among the students in the two business Machines classes. Help was received from nearly all the Seniors in the printing of the pictures for the annual though. The Business Machines classes got together at the beginning of the year and talked over the color schemes desired and also to choose one oerson from each class to act as co-editor of the year book. Marilyn Lawrence and Joann Missler were chosen for this job and with the help of Mr. Anderson, our adviser, they have done a fine job to improve the Cardinal. It was their task to work out the theme for the book which was chosen by the class and to carry it through. They also assigned the Business Machines students to certain pages which were scheduled to be due at a specified time. The Senior Class met with Mr, Anderson one home-room period and presented their ideas as to the design of the cover for the Cardinal. Many good ideas were thought of and it was hard to decide which to choose. The Photography Club, under the guidance of Mr. Roark, spent i :;rent deal of time and effort in taking pictures of differ an organ-’nations, class activities and individual pictures. The Cardinette, our school paper,' was published monthly by students from the two Business Machines classes this year. The pupils' who are working on stencil duplication for one certain month are responsible for writing the articles., cutting the steroils and running them off on the duplicator. The Photography Club helped by taking pictures of different students and printing these for the Cardinette. Different color schemes were used in the publishing of the Christmas and other issues which made the cover very attractive.
