They were too full of work and fun to be forgotten. We are telling the story of these days through words ond pigtures so that you may relive them now and many times in future years.

Whether in official session, or -attending games, programs or parties, they make their sympathetic interest in all phases of. school life felt. They are all busy men ancl that fact makes their active participation in our affairs all the more re- markable. Our school camera has ,caught them in some of their home activities. Charles F.

Sometimes they seem to be everywhere. Did it ever occur to you that teachers are human beings? that they sometimes engage in other. pursuits than grading papers, conducting classes, coaching teams, arranging' programs or planning social events for us? We sent our camera on o tour and this page and the two following show what it brought back. r Miss Stutzman at school in her hours outside of class helps sponsor the juniors and is dramatic coach. At home she can manage the sewing machine as easily as the type- writer. Before Mr. C. C. Milligan if left to teach G.l.'s in far off Japan, he was responsible for the vocational ' agriculture training. Here he is with Mrs. Milligan unwrapping' his col- leagues' farewell gift. 7 Mr. Moore inherited the sponsor- ship of F.F.A. and sophomore class as well as class work Seated on his farm evidence of putting awp teachings. We know that turn his hand to of Mr. Milligan. chariot, he gives into practice his Mr. McElroy can anything around school. Evidently he does the same at home. At school, besides being ex-officio member of all committees, he sponsors the Hi-Y and the Honor Point secretaries. Miss Steele-noon lunch director, Y-Teen and sophomore sponsor, acl- viser to all-school social committee 'ond finance committee-Aand yet she tincls time to garden. Umm, those wieners! Won't they taste good? lf only Mr. Cookson can find time to use this fine struc- ture he has made! l.et's see. He is school photographer, business adviser of the Chimes oncl assistant coach. O yes! he teaches science classes, too. .w1sf:LluusnmA.u+Qa:1nlnlnaf- is J uma. ms -. f t s The varied duties of iunior sponsor take Miss Miller's leisure time at school. She also makes good use of her time at home, say those who have tasted her cooking. ,,,q. Away with classroom cares as Mrs. Watson and her hus- band show the 'teen age how it's clone. In school she helps sponsor the freshmen, oversees the school historians, and supervises assembly programs. lt was not thoughts of grading tests that brought this smile to Mrs. Morgan's face. Away from problems of the senior class-sponsorship, plans for the Chimes, advising news re- porter, she enjoys the contentment of her own hearth. V 1 Behold Daniel Boone Haun! He can teach school, coach teams, help spon- sor the seniors because he knows how C' to relax. I . . Qs On the sidelines at a school party.

The beginning of the year starts off with o bang for the iuniors. From the first Clay, the class of '48 is in the limelight- and stamps its influence upon every activity. We lead in numbers, boast- ing a population of over one-third of the entire school. We hold top honors in sports, oncl are prominent in music. We show the generosity oi our nature by allowing other classes to carry ofl scholastic honors at times. Already we look for- ward to fproviding the greatest social event ol the year, the Junior-Senior Prom. We have nc doubts that our play in the spring will meet with signal success. Above all else, we take the lead in noise and fun.

Sedgwick ..,,,,...,...,.....,,...,,....,.. 66-48 49-50 Undaunted by the loss of three lettermen, the Junior Blues opened an ambitious basketball schedule. After salting the league bunting away with a 10-0 record, the Junior lchs plucked the Golden Eagles in the championship game of the County Tourney 41-26 and finished defeathering the same gilded flock two weeks later in the District finals 46-32. The Jr. Blues were all but flushed out of Regional in the initial contest but gained momentum with progression and easily copped the crown from Scranton to earn a berth in State meet at Hutchinson. Our first encounter there found the Ulysses Tigers clawing gamely but futilely while we set the tournament scoring record 66 points to 48. The quarter finals proved the end of the rainbow trail for Washburn, when the Sedgwick Cardinals made the Blues see red by a one- point margin. This grand finale saw a noble effort to stave off defeat and set another record by scoring 49, the most points of any losing team in this meet. A mere 4 points were the total margin of defeat in 3 losses out of a 28-game schedule. PlCTURES: 1. 4 and 4 makes 2 . 2. Humbling the Scotties. 3. High ball, not tie ball. 4. .lungman gets one off.
