For six years the school lunch program has been under her management. It was through her efforts that warm, nourishing meals were made available to the students of Warrensburg High School. In the years she has been with us, we have all grown fond of her cheery smile and helpful, friendly manner. !5 0 J] T Z JJ 'I V }] D jVI I MIS TK T JO M DO?

The faculty usually met immediately after school and had a short tea or refreshments. Some of the activities which the faculty had participated in were the unit picnic held in Fairview park, just prior to the beginning of school, and a dinner for the VT. C. H.

About 250 students ate noon meals at the high school each day. Everyone enjoyed these meals because they were wholesome, nutritious and just plain good. rj P n r1 -r1 n r) D £ b xi z J n A Mary Dickmeier was the school secretary this year. She worked at the grade school during the morning and came to the high school in the afternoon. Mary performed the many tasks that are necessary for the smooth running of the high school. G U y T 0 U J ) J] Mr. Pease is the man who has the task of cleaning W.C.H.S. after 3:36. He is so quiet, many wonder if he is around. Those who have observed his job can appreciate his work. He is responsible for the well-kept appearance, of not only the building, but the grounds as well. His job is not just a certain hour, for he may be required to perform his duties at any time.

Many extra trips for extra curricular activities give added responsibility to these drivers. Buses for organizations, track meets and ball games were furnished this year.

Our first activity--one that will long be remembered — was Freshmen Initiation. We were asked to exchange clothes, turn them inside out, wear them backwards, take off our socks, tie them in our hair, and put a very gener-our amount of powder and lipstick in our hair and on our faces. During the Sophomore year, we became more acquainted with T. C. H. S. and felt more at home. The Sophomore girls served the Junior-Senior Banquet, the last held in the Larrensburg High School Gym, as Sophomores, our Junior year with its parties and play seemed a long way off in the future. Then bangl Here was our Junior year. T e were very pleased with our play, The Great Ben Allah, which we presented under the direction of Miss Helen Horton. 1 e were also pleased with our Junior-Senior Banquet, which was held in Spring-field. Then we came back this year as Seniors. We chose Bob Sefton as president, Tom Wentworth as vice-president, Jeannine Winters, as secretary and Frank Lehn as treasurer. Lucille Brown, Dorothy Litts, Jim Hurtt and Howard Rooney were chosen as the Planning Committee. This fall, under the direction of Miss Helen Potter, we presented Aunt Hetty Hits Her Stride, a three-act comedy. We also took a great many tests which were supposed to tell in what fields of work we would be best suited. Well, this is it--our last year at V, C, H, S, Some of us are glad that it is over, while others of us are sad; but there will always be certain memories of these years which will last forever. sol o;i pofiT nn O 'J George Albin . . .

One class was composed of Freshmen and Sophomores, while the other one was made up of Juniors and Seniors. Mr. Hanover was the instructor of the classes. The Freshmen and Sophomore class contained eleven students. They studied Animal Husbandry,which included animal breeding, feeding,and the study of each type of livestock. Swine, dairy cattle, poultry, beef cattle and sheep were the main ones studied. The judging and the selection of animals were also studied. There was a small portion of shopwork that pertained to the student’s project. Each student was required to have a project. The other course was called Agriculture III. It had to do with the repairing, adjusting, and maintaining of farm machinery. The students were instructed in the repairs and overhauling of farm machinery. Farm manag-ment was also stressed. Each student figured the cost of runninr a farm, the income, and the profit or loss. The purpose of this was to give practical experience in situ-tions that might be encountered in the future. 3U8JJ] r1 O r1 ji d D £ uueaTiOJ] The business courses offered this year were: .General Business and Bookkeeping, Instructed by Mr. Anderson, and Typing, Shorthand, Office Practice, and Business Machines, under the supervision of Mr. Schwalbe. The units studied in General Business were: Basic business organization, consumer study, finances, and various types of insurance. A unit on travel was also included. The class was divided into six committees. Each committee planned a two-day trip. Various types of communications and filing were also covered. The students in bookkeeping studied the double-entry system, beginning with the sole proprietorship, then partnerships and corporations. Two practice sets were completed. The first covered the sole proprietorship, and the second covered partnerships. Typing 1 was divided into two sections because of the limited number of typewriters. The basic purpose was to teach the students how to type. Typing methods, tabulations, centering, and basic business letters were also covered. Typewriter care and the preparing of stencils and masters were also discussed. Shorthand 1 was a beginning skill course. The class consisted of girls. They concentrated on shorthand theory the first semester, and the practical use of shorthand through dictation and transcription, the second semester. Office Practice was a course offered for the first time this year. As the name implies, it gave the students practice in actual office situations. Further training in shorthand and typing were also stressed. Other units covered were: Writing business letters, handling the mail, typing special items, duplicating, using communication devices, meeting the public, using the files, travel services. itineraries, using shipping services, keeping records, and seeking employment. The Business Machines Class was also divided into two sections. The students were taught the various operations on most types of business machines, including rotary calculators, key-driven calculators, both the ten- and full-key adding-listing machines, the Mimeograph, and liquid and gelatin process duplicators. The students also completed a course on the various methods of filing. Industrial Arts Agriculture 17 Business Machines English II Physics Home Economics III Bookkeeping r r1 r1 —1 r' —i b cononueti The Home Economics course was divided into three classes this year. All three classes had work along the same lines, although the order of the different units were reversed. The classes were centered around units on cooking, sewing, and home planning. The Home Economics department has one room that was used during the units on home planning and sewing. An adjoining room is furnished as a kitchen labortory and was used during the cooking unit. All of the classes were double period classes. Students were also required to work on home projects,which are necessary for experience and which create further inter st. All of the classes wore under the supervision of Miss Mangold, 3 1 r1 n ) J L JJ [ r, D Physics and biology are two valuable courses offered in our present curriculum. Both, provide a basis for knowledge needed in later life. biology is made up of three phases: botany, zoology, and the study of man. Botany is the study of plant life, dealing with the smallest plant life known, algae,up to such impressive-sounding ones as taraxaucam officinale or dandelion. In botany, field trips are often made to study the local flora or bring back specimens. Many interested in a medical career would be especially interested in the latter two phases, zoology and the study of man. Zoology is the study of animal life,starting from the amoeba through the earthworm up to the frog, and so on. These first two phases also bring you into close contact with the microscope. The final phase, the study of man, should be taken by those interested in what makes man tick. It deals with all the mental and physical aspects of man, including psychology, anatomy, histology, neuro-anatomy, physiology, embryology, and pathology. Physics is the study of matter and motion. V.'hile introducing the student to many new terms and meanings, it will answer the why” he may have had tagged onto many natural phenomena. No longer will the strange happenings under the hood of the family's mode of transportation be a mystery, or what goes on behind the mahogany of the family radio. Algebra Girl8' Physical Education General Business laavAimw D Mathematics, eomes from the Greek word Mathematikos” meaning the science of learning. It may be phrased as the science that treats of the measuring, relations and properties of quantities end magnitudes by the use of symbols; Leaving this complex definition we can illustrate its meaning and use at Warrensburg High. ALGEBRA, navigated by Mr. N. K. Drummond, is that part of mathematics treating with the relations arid properties of quantities. Algebra is a very useful tool in everyday life to find the unknowns of problems which one would like to know. It has its use in business, social life, science, music, and everyday life in general. PLaNE GEOMETRY measures and relates quantities arid magnitudes. Taught by Mr. 0. F. Roark, this subject causes a great amount of perplexity to the students. But in general they learn the valuable art of reasoning and still find how to find areas and proportions. COMMERCIAL ARITHi XTIC treats of the measuring of quantities. Primarily, its use is in the business field, but it is also valuable in the mathematical figuring of many problems. This subject was taught by Mr. Drummond to an overflowing crowd. By these illustrations one can see the part that mathematics play at ’ arrensburg High. The counting of high basketball scores, baseball scores, and a huge amount of statistics to slip into the teachers’ ears are a few of its uses. A valuable piece of information it is indeed, and fortunrte we were to get the finest instruction in this field. u]i]eui)0£D ENGLISH Our English Department at W.C.H.S. was under the direction of two teachers. Miss Hostler, who has been with us three years taught the first and second year English, which is compulsory,and the fourth year English which is an elective course. Miss Potter, a new member of the faculty this year, taught the third year class which is a required subject. We used two books each year. One pertained to literature. It included all the great men in that field. The other was a study of grammar. Speech work may be taken up each year by anyone wishing to enter the annual speech contest. This work was under the direction of Miss Hostler. This year we had four entries in the contest. English is a subject everyone should know thoroughly. That is why it is a required subject the first three years. LATIN Our Latin classes were taught by Miss Mackey. Since time doesn’t permit us to have both first and second year Latin every year, they are alternated. This year, Latin II was taught. There were seven pupils in the class. Latin is a very useful subject. It is true, as a conversive language, it is nearly obsolete, but since many of our own words have been taken from that ancient language, one can see how helpful it might be. Latin is not only useful, but very interesting. The stories of adventure and early times go together to make Latin a very enjoyable forty minutes. mu urns in ri ■D Industrial Arts was a new course offered to the boys of Warrensburg High this year. The instructor of the classes was Mr. Glasscock. There were two classes of sixteen students each. The course was divided into four phases: drafting, welding, woodworking, and electricity. Sach student worked on one phase for a period of nine weeks, then changed to another phase, and so on until he had completed the entire course. The courses were mainly exploratory in nature dealing with the basic fundamentals of each trade. This gave each student an opportunity to see what particular phase or phases appealed to him, so that he could pursue it next year in the advanced courses being offered. The shop is set up on the General Shop basis utili-lizing the available space and equipment to the utmost. The student foreman plan has been followed this year where applicable, and it was found to be quite successful. The aim of this course is to train an individual to think, in order that he may solve the problems, both social and economic, which he may meet in life, and to prepare him for a complete living. SDUCfJTJO iJ Boys Physical Education is a required course, taken by every boy in school. Mr. N. K. Drummond is the instructor of the two classes. Class is held every day of the week. Different activities go on throughout the year. When the weather is suitable, the activities are carried on outside. Baseball, basketball, volleyball, ping-pong, track, and socker are some of the more popular activities. The type of activity is governed by the season of the year. One day a week is set aside for movies about health and for reading literature concerning health. The Girls’ Physical Education Class was under the instruction this year of Miss Helen Potter. We had many types of activities, such as dodge ball, indoor and outdoor softball, basketball, volleyball, relays, kick ball, and some track. We had a lot of fun participating in these sports. One day a week was set aside for health. On these days we met in Room 17. We read and discussed pamphlets about different men of science and people who have been of service to society. After the noon program was set up, four volleyball teams were organized. These teams played on Tuesdays and Fridays for top honors in tournaments. Other activities included a ping-pong tournament on Wednesdays. Latin II Band rl - D J U U J rl D Our Social Science Department consisted of World History, Civics and Sociology,and United States History. All of these classes were taught by Miss Mackey. World History is offered to Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors. This year, in World History, the students made a scrapbook on England-each contributing a division of the scrapbook. They also made maps, posters, and studied world powers. Civics and Sociology is a required course for Juniors. The first semester, the class was divided into good citizenship committees. These committees did a good job. The second semester, they were divided into groups--each group discussed one phase of sociology. The United States History course is a required course for the Seniors. This year, part of the class time was spent in free reading and current events. They also made posters for Open House. Talks were given by each student on a certain subject. Book reports were also made. e 1J 0 }) U a The mixed chorus made a good appearance and sang well on their single performance—the Christmas Program. The chorus was considered too large to sing at any of the other school activities, so various groups were organized temporarily to provide music for these affairs. Chorus members gave up class or study hall periods to practise with the girls’ chorus for Open House and again for the Christmas program. The boys’ chorus sang for the Christmas program and the boys’ trio—Ervin Runion, Bob Hazelrigg and Robert Taylor sang for the F. F. A. Banquet. Solos were sung by Judy Gilman and Patty Merriman for the Christmas program and for the plays. Judy won a second division rating at the district contest in Paxton. She has been an excellent accompanist of our chorus. The two unsung heroes of our group are Mary McClure and Blanche Litts who have efficiently cared for the music each Tuesday and Thursday. The student participation program gave us a chance to enjoy a quartet composed of Arnold Galloway, Jim Hurtt, Louie Houk and Tom Wentworth and solos by Gloria Erpelding and Jean O’Dell. Four of our group were selected for membership in the all-state chorus. Barbara Dial, Judy Gilman, Harold Meador and Ervin Runion spent Thanksgiving weekend in Urbana with hundreds of boys and girls selected from choruses in Illinois high schools. Our chorus combined with those of Kenney and Latham for spring festivals in each of the three schools.

There were three lettermen back this year. The team played seven games. The record at the end of the season stood at five wins and two losses. The team was trying hard for the Macon County Championship, but it was won by Argenta. The line-up changed after the playing of the first two games. After that it was the same the rest of the year.

At present it is just a letter club. For membership in the club a boy must have earned a letter in either basketball, baseball or track. In basketball, a boy must play in 25 per cent of the quarters and practice regularly. In baseball he must play in at least 40 per cent of the innings of the year's schedule. In track he must have earned ten points in regularly scheduled dual, triangular or other meets, or place in either the conference or county meet. The club gets its receipts from basketball games and pays for all athletic equipment used in the athletic sports, such as basketballs, uniforms, jackets, baseballs, bats, jumping standards and repair and upkeep of equipment. The club provided the baseball backstop on the ball diamond and the outdoor basketball goals. The club meets once a year to elect captains in the various sports. The basketball captain is the presiding officer, and the coach is the advisor. On Floor: ruc • Kessler 1st R o’ : Bonn;- Leonard, David Di eke”.

The Planning Committees of the Freshman, Sophomore, Junior and Senior classes mot and planned the weekly schedule for the midday activities. When the weather was mild outdoors, basketball, softball, and baseball could be played. When it was necessary to use the gymnasium, a different schedule was used. The boys played volleyball on Mondays and Thursdays in teams previously planned. The girls teams played on Tuesdays and Fridays. On Wednesdays, recorded music was available in the gymnasium for those who liked to dance. A music room was available every day but Wednesday in the social studies room where students could listen to music. At the first of the year, the girls had a volleyball tournament by classes. Later in the year, both boys and girls had a ping-pong tournament for those who are streaks at ping-pong with those most skilled winning. It seemed that this scheduled program gave the students a more enjoyable noon hour, and gave them an opportunity to do those things which they best liked to do. The CARDINAL staff has had a great deal of work to do in compiling the yearbook this year. They have tried to make it more interesting to you, the readers, by adding now ideas and varying the contents. It took many hours of work, but by working during and after school, it was finally completed. This is the first year that the picture pages have been lithographed. Our working on the CARDINAL has been an excellent experience, as well as a lot of fun for all of us.

Miss Helen Potter was the sponsor. At the first meeting, the viee-president of last year, Dolores Dipper, presided until the new president, Judy Gilman was elected. Then the remaining officers were elected. They were as follows: President, Judy Gilman; vice-president, Marilyn Cole; secretary, Cynthia Dickey; treasurer, Marcella Park; point captain, Ann Rotz; assistant point captain, Emily Armintrout; and reporter, Norma Albin. The girls had a sports activity period every Wednesday night after school from until While it was warm they played softball and tried some track activities. During the winter they played -.volleyball and basketball and tried tumbling a few nights. Because it was impossible to have the gymnasium several nights, the activities were made up by having two a week during the warmer months. Monday, November 21, the organization had a paper drive. Emily Armintrout, Marilyn Cole, Norma Albin and Judy Gilman furnished trucks. They were assisted by Ann Rotz, Kay Kirby, Janet Stanley, Mary McClure, Elizabeth Watkins, Levadora Robb, Cynthia Dickey, Luann Waddell, Donna Griffin, and Maxine Williams. Later on in the year another paper drive was held. The annual Mother-Daughter Banquet sponsored by the G. A. A. was held in the high school gym on March 7. The theme of the banquet was the '’Star which was represented in the colors of pink and silver. The meal was prepared by Miss Mangold and the Home Economic girls and was served by some of the Junior and Senior boys. -The speaker was Miss Francis Hara, a student at Millikin from Hawaii. She showed movies of Hawaii and danced their native dance. Thursday, January 26, nine Freshmen were initiated into the organization. They were Kay Kirby, Levadora Robb, Ruth Brown, Luann Waddell, Elizabeth Watkins, Donna Griffin, Judy Hood, Ann Ragsdale, and Janet Stanley. We had a candlelight service first and each girl was presented with a blue and white ribbon as a symbol of her membership. Then they were taken through amihi-tiation process on the stage. Light refreshments and a short game of basketball followed. The Future Hononakors of America for this year, 19 9-50 have had a busy year. We had our regular two mootings each month - one a night meeting when we entertain our mothers. On September 21. 19 +9, we had our formal installation service. The following off icers wore installed: President, Jeannine Winters: Vice-President, Patricia Blythe; Secretary-Treasurer, Emily Armintrout; Historian, Jean Brian; Program Chairman, Connie Kuntzi; Parliamentarian, Juanita Harrell; Reporter, Paul Ann Whiteds Song Leader, Erma Horn; Pianist, Lucille Brown; Degree Chairman, Dorothy Litts. Our advisor was Miss Evelyn Mangold. We had +9 members. Our advisory council-Mrs. Glenn Stoutenborough-past chapter mother; Mrs. Walter Dipper-present chapter mother and Mrs. Harold Gilman-future chapter mother, have helped us in many ways and we appreciated their interest and the help given us. Some of the activities this year were the observing of National F. H. A. Week, a bakery sale in Decatur, Party for Girls’ Welfare, and the sponsoring of Warrens-burg High School s first Homecoming. We had demonstrations on frozen foods, cosmetics, and hair stylings. Our summer meetings last year were successful and we hope to have them again this year. J U i) J 0 }] D £ jilt) ] PfSDffl The second banquet and prorp of the combined schools of Warrensburg, Latham, and Kenney was held May 6 in the Mirror Ballroom of the Orlando Hotel in Decatur. The prom committee was composed of three representatives from each school. Dolores Dipper served as chairman of the combined group and Bob Kazelrigg and Arnold Galloway were our other two representatives.. A Garden of Friendship was the chosen theme and the flower arrangements and other decorations blended to give the ballroom a srring-like effect. Raymond Feters of Kenny acted as toastmaster for the evening. Dolores Dipper gave the invocation and Bob Sefton responded for the Seniors to the Junior welcome from Willa Mae Centers. Mr. nllen, superintendent of the Unit, spoke briefly on a subject in harmony with the general theme of the evening. Voc;l and piano solos were given by Oma Scott and Ann Rotz respectively, and a barbershop quartet composed of Roger Bailey, James Cowan, Vern Lee Garrison and Glenn Gasaway harmonized on several numbers. Music was furnished by Sonny Sampson and his orchestra and the two hundred students, faculty, beard members and guests who attended the fete proclaimed it another successful event in the school calendar. r r Beverly Snith Lcvadora Robb Jcanninc Winters Gloria Erpelding Joan Burdinc Linda Doolen Juanita Harrell Marcella Park Lois Williams Judy Gilman Paul Ann Whited Connie Kuntzi j-J Mary McClure Ruth Brown Barbara Dial Marilyn Watkins Virginia Schroedcr Erma Horn Wanda Doolen Arlene Yokley Dorothy Litts Patricia Blythe Judy Hood Margaret MeGoorge Elizabeth Watkins Sylvia Buckley Carol Ann Barclay Wanda Fry Beverly Warren Jean O’Dell y - Emily Armintrout Blanche Litts Cynthift Dickey Jean Brian Patty Mcrriman Ann Rotz Clarissia Trump Ruth Brown Marjorie Allen Charlotte Williams Maxine Williams Luann Waddell Janet Stanley Ann Ragcsdalc Donna Griffin Dolores Dipper Kay Kirby Norma Albin Marilyn Cole r1 r1 fl fjr j j The Future Farmers of America organization had a membership of twenty-six members. They have been very active throughout the past year. Most of the boys are in agriculture classes. Each member has a project and takes care of it himself. Eight of the members along with their advisor, Mr. Clarence Hanover,took a week’s vacation in Wisconsin last summer, which they plan to do in the future. The members sold magazines. This year they set a record total of $1,036.30, They also sold garden seeds, made and sold concrete hog troughs, entered grain and livestock judging contests,and sent delegates to the National F. F. A, Convention, which was held in Kansas City. They also plan a trip to Chicago every other year. This event will occur this next year. They also have a Parent Son Banquet every spring which is one of their main events. They have many plans for the future and hope to have success in their accomplishments. The officers this year were as follows: President Tom Wentworth; vice-president,Carl Johner; secretary, Arnold Galloway; treasurer, Bob Hazelrigg; reporter Harold Janvrin; and the advisor, Mr. Clarence Hanover. yinjooi pa'frnz'6 There has been a slight change in the management of school parties in comparison to previous years. This year, the students themselves had a chance to choose the kinds of parties they would like to have. After the parties and dateswere decided upon by the class officers of each class, the party-making really began. The parties were held on either Friday or Saturday night, according to the availability of the gym. Each class had a special job, for each party. These jobs were: Refreshment Committee; Rules Committee; Rec- reation Committee; and Decoration Committee. In previous years, there were one or two representatives from each class on each committee; but, this year each class was responsible for one committee only. The parties were much better this year, and were enjoyed by everyone attending. “LU C i U 3 1st Row: David Robbins, Roy Stoutenborough, Howard Mooney, Louie Houk, Bob Sefton, Harold Janvrin. 2d Row: Tom Wentworth, Richard Boyer, Robert Wubben, Carl Johner, David Oakley, Dennis Harrell, George Albin, George Trump, 1st Row: Deraid Morthland, Dean Kramer, Tom Wentworth, Carl Johnerj Bob Hazelrigg, Arnold Galloway, Harold Jamrrin, Robert Taylor, Bob Loveless. 2d Row: Mr. Hanover, Ervin Runion, Robert Wubben, George Trump, Robert Lowe, Benny Leonard, Arthur Lawrence, Spencer Runion. 3d Row: Donald Walker, Jack Benton, Jack Johnston, Richard Park, Max McNeely, Robert Brame, George Albin, 3 3 i) 3 1st Row: Lois Williams, Mary McClure, Jack Johnston, Blanch Litts, Bob Loveless 2d Row: Carol Ann Barclay, Elizabeth Tatkins, Bruce Kessler,, Bill Bourne, Deraid Morthland, Jim Hurtt, Eugene Binkley 3d Row: Ann Ragsdale, Jerry Harvey, Miss Laughlin, Ramona McNee, Max McNeely, Jack Harvey B ] I) D Every Tuesday and Thursday, energetic honks and squeaks penetrate the school from the locker rooms where the various instrumental classes meet to learn about the intricacies of playing the clarinet, trumpet, cornet, saxaphone, baritone, trombone or drums. The band has shown steady improvement throughout the school year (and much improvement over their efforts as beginners last year.) For their performance for the Junior play, the band asked the seventh and eighth graders to play with them. The addition of flutes, basses and snare drums made a more balanced band. But the real credit for the better sounding band goes to those high school members who have worked hard on their chosen instrument. Perhaps people outside the band don’t realize that beside the two band periods and one class lesson a week at school, the members practice at home an average of two hours a week. Of course this varies from the person who tries to slide by on ten hours all year to the ambitious student v ho manages six hours a week.- Those who manage to collect enough points for a band letter really earn it. Beside their band work several students have participated in ensembles and as soloists. A clarinet quartet, made up of Mary McClure, Lois Williams, Carol Ann Barclay and Elizabeth Watkins played for Open House, the Christmas program and the Women’s Club. A trumpet quartet: Bob Loveless, Blanch Litts, Max McNeely and Jack Harvey, and a clarinet duets Elizabeth Watkins and Ann Ragsdale played on the student participation assembly. Solos were performed by John Kerr, baritone; Jim Hurtt, trombone, and Elizabeth Watkins, clarinet. The band played for the Senior play, the Christmas program, the Junior play and with the bands of Kenny and Latham in the Unit Festivals at Warrensburg, KKenpya and Latham.

The staff did its best to try to make the paper more interesting and attractive. Beside the regular reports of incidents happening in and around school, some new columns were added. ’’The Keyhole, What If, and other feature columns contained news off the record of the students here at school and otherwise. Sketches and cartoons were also added this year. Colorful cover, appropriate to the season,also helped to increase the attractiveness of the school paper. The CARDINETTE staff was made responsible to see that the paper was published. The staff naturally made some mistakes, and once in a while got something past the censor, but the responsibility of the paper and the experience gained through this work more than compensate ed for the mistakes made. The editor of the CARDINETTE this year was Patricia Blythe, and the advisor, Mr. Donald Schwalbe. The Photography Club was organized for those who make photography more or less a hobby. Its purpose is to teach them a little more than what they have already learned about photography. This year the Photography Club acquired several new members through the new students entering school. Its chief concern was to make enough money to buy a new camera. This was done by selling refreshments at the basketball games. Enough money v as made to purchase the camera which should give the club a better opportunity to take better pictures. Most of the members learned how to operate the new camera by taking classroom pictures for this yearbook, thus they learned much about photography that they didn't know before. The club therefore fulfilled its purpose in an interesting and enjoyable way. e GROUP PICTURE 1st Row: Paul Ann Whited, Dorothy Litts, Marilyn Watkins Patricia Blythe, Marcella Park, Norma Albin 2d Row: Jean Brian, Elizabeth Yiatkins, Lois Williams Virginia Schroeder, Juanita Harrell, Wanda Doolen Blanch Litts, Mary McClure 3d Row: Harold Janvrin, Bill O’Dell, Mr. Schwalbe Bob Hazelrigg, Mr. Roark 1st Row: Patty Merriman, Blanch Litts, Ann Ragsdale Mary McClure, Norma Albin, Gloria Erpelding Marjorie Allen 2d Row: Carol Barclay, Darrel Walker, Bob Hazelrigg Robert O’Palka, John Bird, bob Lefton, Martha Brink 3d Row: Wayne Cooper, George Albin, Bob Brame, Paul Hardy Bruce Kessler GROUP PICTURE 1st Row: Patricia Blythe, Marcella Park, Marilyn Watkins Lucille Brown, Jeannine Winters, Dorothy Litts 2d Row: Jean Brian, Juanita Harrell, Virginia Schroeder Cynthia Dickey, Wanda Doolen 3d Row: Mr. Schwalbe, Ralph Whitsitt, Tom Wentworth Louie Houk, Bob Sefton, Jim Hurtt, Mr, Roark Tne Annual Senior Flay, under the direction of Miss Helen Potter, was presented to the public the evening of November 4, 1949- The play, entitled, ,TAunt Hetty Hits Her Stride” was written by Wilber Braun, author of ”Aunt Tillie Goes to Town,” and many other popular stage hits. The cast included eight girls and four boys. The leading part which was aunt Hetty, was portrayed by Lucille Brown. The supporting cast included Frank Lehn, as Professor Leander Tate. His wife, Olivia, was played by Jeannine Winters. Their daughter, Thelma, a studious young daughter, was Patricia Blythe. Their maid, Melba, an authority on men, was enacted by Dorothy Litts. Kim Douglas, refined and charming, was Marcella Park. Her brother, Durward, a real estate broker, was played by Jim Hurtt, who also played Douglas Dombie, an an athletic coach. Rosalein Dombie, played by Cynthia Dickey, was Mr, Dombies’ wife. Dr. Carrie Ditto, the chiropracter,was portrayed by Jean Brian. Bonnie Starr, the troublemaker, who lost a book of poems, was Virginia Schroeder. Foster F-rost, the young athlete, who was in love with Thelma was Tom Wentworth. Then of course, to make it modern, there was Jim Gordan, the detective, who was played by Bob Sefton. The play was a three act comedy. It took place on a college campus, in Professor Tate’s home.

The play revolved around the difficulties of Dan Tennyson, a high school Junior who wanted to go to college because he felt superior to other students of high school age. By bribery and strategy he finally convinced his parents that he had become socially adjusted. He was aided (unwillingly) in his plotting by his brotherTs gang of high school classmates for a price—the price being the coaching of the school star athlete.
