Many hearts beat faster at the thoughts of the happy and profitable hours spent here. Many lives have been inspired here to add honor, prestige, and service to our school, our community, and our nation. Pblgfz S0fz00fJ41111ex Built in 1932, the Annex has been the scene of two important phases of students' lives: the practical and the cultural, for in this building are taught industrial arts and music. Skills for Workaday life and thrills for leisure hours-all these and more have been attained here. .. , . --nf, ' 'T' ,--,,- W -WW --W -'-.f'-f- c' - A .

To Tfze Press i I E At the turn of the century ' the Switzer Brothers established their printing company in Webb City, which has served the com- munity and surrounding dis- tricts with high grade printingg and since 1932 with the publi- cation of a weekly paper, The Graphic Review. In 1908, this company printed our first King Jack, and hasecon- tinued through the years its distinctive and loyal service in helping produce a year book worthy of our town and our school. Therefore, we congratulate the company on its fiftieth anniversary as we dedicate the 1950 issue of King Jack to The Switzer Printing Company. 0 Est City EI grown late H2 and ow further the bes' and it Wise's Q and has high scl Notes.

The late Hal M. Wise became editor and owner in 1906, and loyally furthered, for forty-two years, the best interests of Webb City and its citizens. After Mr. Wise's passing, April 16, 1948, Hal M. Wise, Jr., assumed the editorship of the paper and has continued his father's policies and service. The Sentinel has fostered our high school journalistic activities by printing, since 1931, our school's Cardinal Notes. We are happy to dedicate our 1950 King Jack to the Webb City Daily Sentinel.

Campus and locker clean-ups have been conducted as customary in previous years. The coun- cil sponsored more dances than usual, especially those after football games. Helping the Salvation Army in its project of collecting food, toys and clothing for Christmas baskets and distributing them was a pleasurable activity. The organization assisted Mrs. Adams in the Speech Clinic con- ducted by Dr. Charlotte G. Wells and her staff to test and diagnose speech problems. At the Christ- mas season the second and third floor halls had a festive Yuletide appearance with a large Christ- mas tree and other Christmas decorations-the work of the council. Projects of the council were the putting up of pennants of the Big-Eight teams in our gymnasiumg restoring parts Of the audi- toriuml stage that needed repairs. Officers and other members attended the Annual Southwestern Student Council Convention which was held this year at Buffalog and they derived much inspiration and benefit from associa- tion with other groups in the discussion of problems and projects, The last school dance sponsored by the council was a wo overall sock hopg the Illusion Sisters -Pam and Ella-returned with a new and different Set of dances, a vocal sextet sang If I Knew You Were Coming and Candy and Cake .

It conducted the Junior Red Cross Drive in the home rooms of both junior and senior high. Many of the members also assiduously solicited contributions in the National Red Cross Drive. The organ- ization co-operated with the Senior High Council in collecting donations of food, toys, and clothing for the Christmas baskets. At Christmas time, the group decorated a large tree on the first floorg the colored electric lights on the tree brightened the lower halls. The council collected Christmas favors made by the boys and girls in the elementary schools, packed them, sent them to a soldiers' hospital to help bring cheer to the lives of the veterans there. In striving to keep the school attrac- tive inside and outside, th J ' ' ' ' ' e unior High Council worked with the Senior High group in conducting locker and campus cleanups. The organization supervised two junior-high parties during the year, dancing, games, and floor shows provided delightful entertainment. The council picnic was held on April 28, at the Car- thage Park in the form of a Wiener roast with toasted marshmallows as a special treatg it was a de- lightful occasion to end a year of service, success, and social events. Faculty members attending were Miss Stinnett, Mrs. Ball, Miss Venable, Mr. and Mrs. Chancellor, Mr. and Mrs. Anderson, Mr. and Mrs. Gillman, and Mrsf. Coffee.

Much untiring Work is given by these students and their director, Mrs. Jack Ball, to produce high type music in a high type dignified manner. One of the outstanding produc- tions this year was the Senior High Operetta, Meet Arizona by Brown-Cadman. By popular .re- quest this Operetta was given a second showing. The Mixed Chorus presented an impressive Christ- mas Assembly with the traditional caroling through the halls ushering in the Yule-tide season. The Junior High School, for its major performance, gave Bits of Blarney, by Myers and Car- rington, an operetta light in text which was very entertaining. This operetta Was an all student production, with Jayne McCanse as student director and Floyd Shirk as stage manager. MIXED CLIURLS-Panel l.

The small ensembles have been unusually fine, participating in religious, civic, and social ac- tivities. One outstanding event Was the program given by the Nonet at the Woman's Club in Joplin. The nine girls, in robes, sang a group of Easter numbers with Mrs. Chester Roney, violinist, and Mrs. William Wallace accompanying. This was one of the loveliest programs ever presented by the Nonet-and it was an honor to be invited. And so We keep building year by year to strengthen our department for t'Our School and Our Town. 57 Q l E ii 1 'iv-s Inffrumenfrzl Emembl 61 As we look back over the school year of the instrumental music depart- ment, We realize that it has been both profitable and pleasurable. The instru- mental trios performed at several places, the string trio won first places in the Neosho and Springfield contests. Thirty-three orchestra members, includ- ing sixteen string orchestra members, have played music of Mozart, Beethoven, Brahms, and other classical composi- tion, as Well as popular jazz and swing numbers of George Gershwin and BRASS AND STRING TRIOS practice for assembly program- Marilyn Gretz, Phyllis Norton, Martha Dickson, Dale Gilliam, Richard Cruse, Betty Traylor. Jerome Kern. The orchestra has played at the junior, senior, and speech plays, for the Corona- tion of the Queen of KING JACK, for Baccalaureate and Commencement. This musical group performed creditably at the N eosho and Joplin festivals. At the last school assembly the orches- tra presented a lovely program of classical numbers such as Finale from Fifth Symphony tBeethovenJ, Two Waltzes tBrahmsD, Humoresque tTchaikovskyJ, and semi-classical and lighter numbers as Spanish Serenade tlsaacb, Cossack Dance tMoussorskyJ, March of the Peers from Iolanthe tGilbert and Sullivanj, and Sleigh Ride tAndersonJ.

Resplendent in gorgeous' red uniforms trimmed in white, and paced by the drum major, Betty Traylor, and the band twirlers in lovely white and gold costumes, our band, with its beauty and harmony, is pleasing to the eyes and delightful to the ears. The flag twirlers added color and vivacity as they marched before the band at football games and parades. Consisting of fifty-one players, the band has provided inspiring music at four football and five basketball games, marched in two parades. The band has appeared in one special assembly, and also made trips to the Neo- sho and Joplin festivals. The small ensembles entertained us on several occasions. Two of the ensembles were the brass quartet, consisting of Richard Cruse and Ronnie Richardson, trumpeteersg Kenneth Shoup and .Tommy Johns, trombonists, and the clarinet quar- tet, consisting of Tommy Byrd, Carolyn Carlstead, Lyle Redmon, and Richard Bellairs.
