Bernard Williams Clayton Porter Wood Burr Young lllll I Tlllllll In order to carry forward and further develop the initial plans for unification which have been proposed by presentfday states' men, the youth of today must have trained and competent leaders. The responsibility for the development of such leaders rests largely with our administration and faculty. Their high standard for scholarship and their interest in the character of the individf ual make our teachers invaluable in the preparation of Webster Groves youth for the future work of world unification. LEONARD A. STEGER Supcrintendellt of Schools The combined thought, effort, and heroic sacrihces of the Allied Nations brought the most devastating war in history to a victorious end. As that gigantic spectacle fades into the recent past, reverberations of differences between major powers loom large on the horizon. These difficulties are disturbing indeed to a warfweary world. The time seems very short for the waging of peace. The best instrument to come from the minds of contemporary statesmen for settling differences amicably between the nations of the world has been set in motion. It is striving diligently and desperately to meet the problems of reconstruction and to build unity and good will among men. If success is to be achieved in developing world unity, these leaders need the help and understanding and expressed conviction of many world citizens. As individual citizens of a great nation, to which the world is looking for leadership, it is our responsibility to seek out and continuously foster all those forces of good will which contribute to world unity. This is a task which will require diligence, perseverance, and vigilance. Short of war, the price of enduring peace is worth any cost. -12- HOWARD A. LATTA 1J7 f7lCif7GI of High School The dedication of the 1946 Echo to world unity is an appropriate expression of what probably should be the primary concern of people the world around. For years world unity has been sought by a few but looked upon by many as an idealistic dream. Within the last few years scientiic development has thrust nations upon one another much as families who find themselves rubbing elbows in a large urban apartment building. Their habits of isolation and aloof dealings have been jolted into misunderstandings, mis' trust, and open friction. Very recent proof of super powers for destruction-a mere sampling of what might be developed-has shocked nations into the necessity of finding a way to live together. World unity begins at home-in the family, in the school, in the community, and in the nation. It is achieved by learning to work together in harmony in an ever expand' ing sphere. lf Webster Groves High School has truly served its purpose for you, it has been a laboratory for world unity. A few years ago most of you left five elementary schools for which you had built keen loyalties. You were certain that your school and its traditions were the best. Within a year or two these loyalties were largely forgotten. Your former customs, beliefs, and loyalties 'blended into new ways of working together. There is still a warm spot in your memory for the old school, but you now realize how narrow and foolish some of those loyalties were. If you have truly learned how false your opinion of the other fellow may beAthat your freedom ends where the other man's begins-and that life is a process of 'Lgive and take, you have learned the basic fundamentals of world unity. -13- Marc! of gylfcccclfiolfc Frank L.

The mid year eleventh grade class was divided into two homerooms under Miss Swank and Mr. Johnson. Originally Miss Saxon had Mr. John' son's group, but she was replaced by him when he returned from the service at the beginning of the second semester. The midfyear group was much larger in previous years, but, as is custom' W .gzniom ary, many have either dropped back half a grade or accelerated their program in order that they might graduate in june. Although they were a small group, they were well represented in all the activities throughout school. The Pep Club, HifY, G. A. A., Pan Am, Riding Club, Production Staff, and Latin Club were all supported by students from this class. Other mid seniors were hardworking mem' bers of the A Cappella Choir, the band, and the orchestra. Several contributed time and work to the Webster Echo, The Echo, and the Latinus Rumor staffs. In sports the students were also active. Some of the boys were on varsity teams and the girls played in afterfschool sports. The members of the class always gave their full su-pport to all the campaigns. They gave freely to the Red Cross drive, bought savings stamps every Tuesday, andihelped put over the Tuberculosis campaign.

Miss Swank was their chief sponsor, and their counselor was Miss Jones. Each homeroom elected its oificers, and these students formed the junior Governing Body which held meetings on call of their president, Bob Cooper. The class elected Jim Sprick vicefpresif dent and Eleanor Leedham secretary. As a money' making project the governing group carried out plans for a junior prom. The dance was the Carnation Prom and was held on March 9 in the junior girls' gym. The five maids elected by the junior boys were Doris Behymer, Joan Dorsett, Margaret Drake, Ann Matrindale, and Ann Wilf liams. The name of the queen was kept secret until the night of the Prom. Then just when everyone thought he could wait no longer, Jim Sprick introduced Bob Cooper, who disclosed the lucky girl's name. Margaret Drake was the girl chosen from the five maids. This was the first Sine or Cosine? time for several years that there had been a prom for the juniors, and it took hard work on their part to bring one about. The members of the junior class were most active in all phases of school life. Herb Nolan won hrst place in the American Legion Cratorical Contest. In sports, especially, the juniors have been most prominent. More girls from the junior Denise, Cole, Conway, Coltor, Copeland, Bunch. Carpentier, Close, R. Cooper, Gingrich, Comotto, Bradley, J.

All these events were only a few of the more important undertakings of the juniors. The be' ginning choir was made up almost entirely of juniors, and there were several in advanced choir. Pan Am, G.

By last fall members of the January class of '48 were beginning to get used to changing subjects in the middle of the year and trying to remember in September what they had learned in June. Alf ready some of the students have given up trying to remember and have either dropped back half a year or gone forward to the eleventh grade. ynniord This year's mid junior class had only fortyfnine members, and they were divided into two confer' ence rooms with Miss Hackett and Mr. Hicks as conference teachers. Miss Iona Jones served as their counselor. In Miss Hackett's room, the students elected Earl Hobbs president, and in Mr. Hicks' room, Len Owen was chosen president. In school affairs this group was well represented by active students. They had representatives at all the Student Council meetings as well as at the Red Cross meetings. In their homerooms they always gave generously to the campaigns and faith' fully bought savings stamps every Tuesday. The mid junior boys showed their interest in sports by going out for the teams in earnest. Several of them have been rewarded by making the track, football, or basketball squads.

C5219 0WL0l 8f5 Early in the fall the entire sophomore class held a meeting for the purpose of electing their class officers for the year. They chose John Noonan as their president, Don Peat as vicefpresident, and Jean Wezlver as secretaryftreasurer. The nine conference rooms also elected their own officers, whose duties were to take attendance, lead home' room discussions, and read the daily announce' ments. English was the only required subject, and the remainder of the program was chosen to fit the indiVidual's interest and abilities. Many students chose to study a language such as Latin, Spanish, or French, a math course, either geometry or algebra, and biology or modern history. Clothing, arts, dramatics, foods, glee club, typing, and instruf mental music were also on the list of electives. Both the girls and boys of this class were very interested in athletics. The boys took an active part in the football season. In basketball, many boys played on the sophomore team, and one boy, That's a joke, son! Don Peat, made the varsity squad. The boys also enjoyed track and baseball. Many girls entered enthusiastically into the girls' athletics. ln each of the four sports there was a sophomore team which played against other schools. Some of the girls made the Varsity teams. l Beeker, R.

The junior girls' gym was decorated for the dance and the music was furnished by Bob Urban's band. In the junior boys' gym were ref freshments as well as entertainments, such as basketball and bean bag throws and movies. In April the sophomore boys challenged the juniors to a baseball game.

When they -became part of the senior school, the sophomores were eligible to join many clubs. The G. A. A. gained many active girls as did the Pep Club and BifY. The boys joined the Rifle Club, and both girls and boys became members of Pan Am, Latin Club, and the Riding Club.

Blackburn Veil lfl'L8lfL The ninth grader was really lost when he came into the high school, because, for him, high school life was just beginning and the prospect was a little terrifying. However, this year the whole class had an exceptionally good start. There were about two 'hundred and seventyfive freshmen, and they were divided into nine homerooms. The teachers in charge of these homerooms were: Miss Borticher, Mr. Case, Mr. Connard, Mrs. Hamaker, Mr. Leach, Miss Leaver, Miss Henneke, Mr. Petty, and Mrs. Roedcr.

P855 IWLZW, When the freshmen organized, they chose Bob Rutishauser for their president and Doug Simpson for their vicefpresident. Meetings were held on call of the president. The freshmen kept up their organization, the Fortyfniners, which was started the year before. It was thus named because the class will graduate in 1949. The entire grade belonged to the organf ization, and its activities were almost entirely social. One of its projects was a valentine party. Although the organization was managed and chaperoned by the parents and Miss McClain, the activities were planned by the students. A freshman has several choices to make conf cerning his studies. He has two required subjects, English and physical training. The rest of his course is chosen according to his afterfschool plans. Most freshmen tackle a language and also try their hand at algebra. Aside from academic courses, they have an opportunity to try the pracf tical arts, such as home economics or industrial arts. It's only a sixfcent fine this time. Sports held the interest of many a ninth grader. There were some outstanding players who will, undoubtedly, help carry future varsity teams to victory. Nor were the girls left out, for almost any day freshmen girls were staying for after' school athletics.

The presidents of the homerooms were: Carolyn Clark, Jack Hodges, Jerry Hurt, Bob Menke, Ronnie Merell, Betty Schneider, and Mary Wyrick. The grade counselor, Miss Webster, was in charge of attendance and advising the students. Each eighth grader had a conference with Mr. Verby and his parents concerning his program for the following years. In each case, a tentative four year schedule was planned. Much of the routine business was handled in the homeroom, and it was here that the student Kurman, Mason, Hudspeth, Johnson, Henley, Muth, Lee, D. Miller, Gremp, Metcalf, Jenkins Keefer, C.

The eighth grader spent two hours during the school day in bloc, English, history, or social studies, spelling, and current events. During the first semester, geography was studied one hour each day, during the other semester, the course was general science. One period a day was spent with mathematics, and another was alternated between gym and reading. Each semester one elective was chosen from the following group: art, applied crafts, creative writing, dramatics, directed study, foods and nutrition, home economics, indusf trial arts, instrumental music, and vocal music. Although they were hampered by a lack of gym facilities, the eighth graders participated in ath' letics-the girls in afterfschool volleyball, and the boys in basketball. The eighth grade, having named itself the Nifty Fifties, met once a week for a dancing Thespians of 1950 class under the direction of Mr. and Mrs. Cowles of the Arthur Murray studios. This class was open to all and gave several parties during the year. In the spring, a dancefcarnival was planned for all eighth graders. The eighth graders had an active year and looked forward to another next year as ninth graders and leaders of the junior school. Paterson, Simon, Straub, Vaughan, Vallier, Semmelmeyer, VVarren, J.

The student finds that he is the smallest member in a large group, where before he was the important one. He must learn to associate with new friends and to regulate his school life to meet the demands of a new type of school system. In the fall of 1945 approximately two hundred and thirty students were enrolled in the seventh grade. The class was divided into seven confer' ence rooms supervised by the following teachers: Miss Jean Christie, Mrs. Pauline Davis, Miss Lilf lian Roberts, Miss Ada Hoover, Miss Elisabeth Tompkins, Miss Rosina Shepardson, and Miss Mary Ellen Saxon. Miss Jackson was appointed counselor for this class.

During the bloc English and social studies were taught. Qther subjects which are required in the seventh grade are music, speech, and library reading, Some students chose instrumental music as an elective. The seventh graders, who do not have the opportunity to participate in many of the school's activities, planned a party which they gave in March. The entertainment consisted of games, and was supervised by the parents. The girls of the seventh grade had the opporf tunity to take part in afterfschool ping pong, shuffle board, volleyball, basketball, and jacks tournaments in competition with eighth and ninth grade girls. There were no afterfschool sports offered for the boys, but many of them were in thc boys' choir. Mathematic Mysteries A representative reported the activities of the Student Council and Red Cross to the home rooms once a week. All of the home rooms contributed to the Red Cross drives. The seventh graders were also active in the buying of War Savings Stamps which were sold in the home rooms.

Junior School Bigwigs The Junior Student Council met every Tuesday afternoon under the leadership of Levon Zakarian, junior school president, and the sponsor, Miss Brantley. The other officers were: Bob Ruti- shauser, vicefpresident, and Jim Porter, secretary' fI'CEiSL1I'6I'. 1 omior .glfowfenf Come! The members of the council were divided into several committees. One committee was in charge of the promotion of the sales of War Bonds and Stamps. The management of the bicycle rack was under the care of a group of boys. A third com' mittee phoned those who had been absent for at least three days to see if any help in school subjects could be given. The system of monitors was under the jurisdiction of another committee.

The familiar phrase, La seance est auvert, meant to Le Cercle Francais the opening of another Tuesday afternoon spent in a true French manner. The meetings were conducted almost entirely in that language since everyone, having completed 8 QVC 8 l 6LlfLC6'LL:5 one year of French, was expected to understand. The meeting usually consisted of the playing of French games, listening to records, or singing. At Christmas the club celebrated the holiday, Le jour des Roisf' with a party held at the home of Ann Shoemaker, the president. Steve Schmid was elected vicefpresident, and Mary Roessel sec' retaryftreasurer. Miss Sadie Jane Woods was the sponsor. Une main highlight of the year's program was the visit of Madame Comte, who formerly lived in Switzerland. Her visit gave the members an opportunity to hear the French language spoken fluently. The club visited old French landmarks in downtown St. Louis. These activities provided both entertainment and educational value, thus the members absorbed French culture and received a great amount of enjoyment from it, Prichard, Farris, Miss VV0ods, Hewitt, Lamm Ruddy, XVaite, Smith, Hoff, Harper Schmid, Roessel, Shoemaker, Perry we yotnior lg 6055 - The upper and lower school Red Cross organ' izations undertook a large number of projects this year which were successfully carried out. The first real big job thoroughly accomplished was the packing of Christmas boxes for soldiers overseas. The money left from these contributions was used to buy games, gum, etc., for hospitalized soldiers at Jefferson Barracks. Their biggest project was the membership drive held in November. From this they collected S132 to be given to the national Red Cross fund. At Christmas a collection was made for gift boxes to be sent to children at the Missouri Society for Crippled Children. Through the home rooms the Red Cross collected money in February for boxes which were sent to children in Europe.

Many alumni as well as students subscribed to the Latinus Rumor, and the paper was on the exchange list with three other schools in the United States. Each issue was three pages long with the colored cover appropriately illustrated for the season. The paper contained a crossword puzzle, a joke column, a book review, and a quiz, as well as the main articles on the Romans and their various customs. There were two special and enlarged issues, the Christmas paper and the paper in celebration of Latin Week. The staff members, under the sponsorship of Miss Hazel K.

This year the staff attempted to make the 1946 edition of The Echo both an interesting memory book and a typical crossfsection of the school year with its varied activities. The publication of the Echo is made possible through advertising, selling candy at athletic games and after school, operating the school book store, selling Turkey Day buttons and Webster stickers, individual picture' tax, and subscriptions. The work involved in making a year book covers many Helds: writing, editing, photography, printing, ad' vertising and business, and circulation.

A program for the year was planned by the officers at a series of summer meetings. During the year the club met once a week at the new Y to discuss various topics. A few were college, vocations, Christian ethics, and racial minorities. They also had interesting speakf ers, including Mr. Borzinsky of Russia and Chuck Mangold, one of the club's sponsors. As in previous years, the HifY joined with the Kirkwood HifY to give the traditional Friendship Dance and to crown the football queen of each school.

Yet this staif could make or break a play, for without smooth mechanism of all parts, a play, like a motor, cannot run. The purpose of this organization is to give credit where the credit is due, for without it, these students would go unrewarded. Many do not realize the hard work that goes on behind stage. Miss Seibert chose the production staff for each play, and every person carried on their duties under her supervision, almost like professional crew members. The staff worked after school, Saturdays, and nights, to make each dramatic presentation a success.

During November the choir made its irst public appearance at the State Teachers Convention at Kiel Auditorium. Then four days later they sang at an Avery P. T. A. meeting. During the holiday season the choir gave a broadcast of Christmas music over KMCX, enter' tained the Rotary Club, and also took a leading part in the Christmas Vcsper Services, which were held on December twentieth, twentyffirst, and twentyfthird.

This year the group was made up of approximately seventyffive boys and girls of the sophomore and junior classes. Before one was accepted into the choir, he had an individual conference with Miss Replogle. In this conference the prospective member was obliged to sing and also demonstrate other musical abilities which he might have. Although this organization was not quite as active as the Adf vanced A Cappella, it was generally considered to be just as important, for it was here its members prepared for advanced work.

Bach's ith Symphony in Progress The advanced high school orchestra under the direction of Mr. Carl Werner vvas composed, for the most part, of advanced instrumental music students of the senior high school, howcvcr, sevf eral ninth graders also were mcmbcrs. The ma' 0lfLC8lf'lf 0rcAe51fra jority of these students were formerly members of the Lower School Crchestra. The boys and girls of this orchestra, which met first hour, elected the following officers: Jean Weaver, president, Rene Wiegert, vicefpresidentg Louann Gevvinner, secretary, Douglas Clemens, treasurerg and William Randolph, Librarian. As in former years the orchestra played for the evening productions of the dramatics department. Included in their other activities were perform' ances at St. Leo's Center in December, at the Music Festival, and also at various grade school assemblies throughout Webster. In addition the orchestra participated in the Echo coronation, in high school assemblies, and also in the graduation exercises. It can be plainly sccn that thc High School Concert Orchestra was one of the most active organizations of the school. -g6.. 0lfLC8l f gan! The concert band was a group of about eighty' five members under the direction of Mr. Hans Lemcke. At the beginning of the year Bud Murf phy was chosen president, Bob Longstreet-vice' president, Martha Lemcke-secretary, Don Harris ftreasurer, and Marilyn Kegg and Rita Alexander -librarians. It was as a member of this band that the student began to appreciate and to realize the worth of his previous training in school musical organizations. Many of the members belonged to the Athletic Band which has been active again this year. It was always a familiar sight at the home football games, lending to the excitement and spirit of both the teams and the spectators. The band played for the Hannibal game, par' ticipated in Armistice and Navy Day Parades, played at thc Masonic Temple for a family eve' ning, and presented assemblies at the high school Hot air experts in Eureka, Missouri, as well as in our own school. In addition to these activities the concert band acted as host to those grou-ps which came to the St. Louis County Music Festival. 'LHoliday For Strings The Lower School Orchestra under the direcf tion of Mr. Carl Werner was open to any student in the junior school. The members elected their officers at the beginning of the second semester as follows: Joan Gray, presidentg Pat McGee, vice' presidentg Peggy Cvynn, secretaryftreasurerg and Shirley Darrow and Ann Stearns, librarians. OLUQIW 3400! QIACAQJ tl 6L Many of the members were junior school stu' dents who had previously played in grade school orchestras. Some of them continued their indif vidual training by studying with a teacher selected by the school. It was in Lower School Orchestra that those students interested in instrumental music developed the skill and were given the necessary instruction to enable them to take their place in the High School Concert Orchestra. The Lower School Orchestra stimulated further interest in our music department by playing at assemblies in all the grade schoolsg and, as a result, created enthusiasm among prospective members before they entered high school. Other public appearances were made at high school programs and the County lviusic Festival. .-gg- omior cgijtoof gem! The junior School Band was composed of those boys and girls in the lower school who were interested in eventually becoming a member of the upper school band, As before, the band was under the direction of Mr. Hans Lemcke, who was capably assisted this year by Miss Louise Ide. This group, which met every day Hfth hour, elected the following officers: Bob Grempfpresif dent, Louis Booth-vicefpresident, Philip Muth- secretaryftreasurer, and Carolyn Yoder-librarian. During the class period the fundamentals were stressed and the elemental theory was carried out. Also, various ensembles were formed to help stu' dents develop skill and technique. Those students who did not possess their own instruments were allowed to borrow them from the school so that they could continue with band activities. Besides thc instruction work the lower school band ob' junior -livers tained experience in performing before audiences by playing in the County Music Festival. The members of this band have certainly proved themselves capable and industrious workers. -- 39..

Look at the referee! Cn September l, practice of the 1945 Webster football squad began. The Statesmen were quickly rounded into condition by Coach Ray Moss and the two cofcaptains, Arthur Carlson and Norman Carlson, and were ready within two weeks to begin their schedule. The team-light, well' balanced, and fast-got off to a good start by defeating Cleveland 1977. Cleveland drew first blood by scoring in the beginning quarterg but the Statesmen came right back to even up the score in the second quarter, and then went on to score in the third and fourth periods. The Mossmen then blanked C. B. C., 19fO. They scored twice in the second quarter and once in the fourth. Following that victory, Webster battled the hardfhitting Normandy squad to a 6f6 tie. Normandy tallied in the second quarter, and the score remained 6f0 until later in the fourth period when the Statesmen, with six minutes to play, made an eighty yard drive for a touchdown. The States' men continued their winning streak by defeating Ritenour l9f6. Neither team scored in the first half, but Webster came through twice in the third quarter and once in the fourth. The Mossmen then met Wellston and Maplewood whom they defeated 13f6 and 3'7f6, respectively. A trip to floflaff Hannibal resulted in :mother victory by a 2Of0 score. After a tenfday rest, the Grange and Black defeated Clayton 4'7fl2. The final game was the traditional Turkey Day game with the spirited Kirkwood Pioneers. lt ended in a l2f0 victory for the Statesmen and closed one of the finest seasons in the team's history. The Grange and Black were rated as the best team in the county and were given a bid to play the leading city team on Thanksgiving Day. However, the game 'was unable to be played because of the previous arf rangements with Kirkwood. The Statesmen amassed a total of l92 points, an average of 21.3 points per game, while their opponents scored only 43 points, an average of 4.8 points per game. Responsible for the season's success was Moss' superb coaching plus the fine team work and spirit of the whole squad. Try and stop him! French, Jordan, Paschen, Grossman, R.

After that mishap, how' ever, the team got down to business and hit their stride. The next game was with Maplef Wood, and the junior statesmen trampled the Leafs 2OfO. Then came the game with Ritenour which Webster won 34fO. In the Kirkwood conf test, the Websterites once again proved their superiority as they downed the Pioneers by a score of l3fO. The Hnal game with the Normandy Vikings also resulted in a l3f0 victory for the Bryant boys and closed a very successful season for the team. Many of the B boys went on to play with the varsity after the close of their season. The team elected Bob Stahlhut for their Cap' tain.

After about one month of drilling, practicing, and playing, the three class teams were chosen from these afterfschool teams. These class teams took part in the Hockey S-ports Day at Washington University last fall. Although the juniors were the only Webster team to win, the games were close and exciting, and the afternoon was thoroughly enjoyed by all those who attended. The season ended with four losses for the sophof moresg one win, two ties, and one setback for the juniors, and four defeats for the seniors. The varsity squad was composed of the best players of the sophomore, junior, and senior class teams. This year it had for its members two sophomores, eight juniors, and five seniors. In l Varsity Squad their three games against the varsity teams of other county schools, the Webster varsity, with Nancy Salveter as captain, lost to Clayton, tied Kirkwood, and beat Maplewood.

How'd that happen? Did he hit it? The 1945146 basketball team under the direction of Coach Leonard King played a total of sixteen games of which they won eight and lost eight. Under the leadership of the cofcaptains, Curtis Burton and Charlie Stephens, the Kingmen scored a total of 618 points, an average of about 38 points per game. During the Christmas holidays Webster cn' tered the annual Normandy Invitational Basketball Tournament, After beating Mehlville and push' ing past Jennings High, the Statesmen entered the semiffinals against the powerful Wellston iivc. The game, which was a thriller, was won by Wellsf ton in the last fifteen seconds of play. The record of the Statesmen did not, however, show their real ability. Many games were lost by small margins, and if the Kingmen had had their share of good breaks during the season they would have turned defeat into victory. A good example of this was in games with both Normandy and Cleveland at the Maplewood gymnasium. Normandy, the county champion, and Cleveland, one of the most powerful teams in the city, were both outplayed and outpointed by Webster in the iirst half by eight and five point margins ref spectively. Because of unfortunate play, how' ever, the Statcsmen lost by close scores in the last quarter. gadfef On February 19, the Webster hoopsmen entered the Subfregional Tournament at Maplewood High School. The Sub-regional has existed for many years and is played on the basis that the winner of the tournament, and also the second place' team, are entitled to compete in the State Tournaf ment, which was held this year in St. Louis at the Washington University Field House. The States' men were placed in a bracket with Southwest, Brentwood, Chaminade, McBride, and Cleveland, the latter being one of the finest teams in the state. Webster drew a bye and automatically passed into the quarter finals, in which they beat South' west 5787. The Statesmen then contested with Cleveland in the semiffinals losing 4463. Webster Iiurrah for TJornH still had a chance for third place, but as their hopes had been slightly deflated, they didn't seem to click, and they dropped the game to Chaminade 45f35.

As in past years, Webster made a fine showing in this tournaf ment, for the team of 1944f45 captured first place honors. In the Hrst game of the tournament the ,junior statesmen had no difficulty in defeating the hosts, Wellston, by the score of 44f18. In the semifinals, the Sophs met with stiff opposif tion in the Normandy Vikings, but they managed to defeat them 2221. The next night they clashed with the Clayton Greyhounds for the championship. The game was a thriller, and the score throughout was nip and tuck. With but thirty seconds remaining, center Len Owen dropped in a basket which clinched the game 2423, and also the championship.

On February 14 began the Missouri State Wrestling Tournament, in which Webster com' peted with the other high school wrestling teams in the state of Missouri. The Statesmen upheld the fine records they had established in the past with one state champion, Louie Allen, who took Hrst place in the 154 pound class.

This intrafmural tournament was carried on for approx' imately one month. Games were played on three days of each week. However, no one team played more than one game in a week. The sophomore, junior, and senior class teams were chosen from the girls who had played in all of their scheduled games. These girls were select- ed on the basis of their skill, good sportsmanship, and willingness to cofoperate. Each of the class teams played four games, Due to the present building program, all of these were played away from Webster. Webster's opponents this year were the class teams of Maplewood, Wellston, Ritenour, and Kirkwood High Schools. After the class teams had finished their schedf ules, the varsity squad was chosen from the best Up and Over players of the three class teams.

This year the track team had difficulty in finding a training site, for the construction work on the new cafeteria and gymnasium, and also the newlyfinaugurated spring football practice limited the track facilities here at school. However, the boys kept in shape by running up to Forty Acres and back to school, a good two miles. A sixthfoffafmile track and a sand pit were built at Forty Acres where most of the training took place. The stronger part of the team consisted of returning veterans: Bill Peterson, Jere French, Ronnie Crossman, Chester Deuser, Adolph Meier, Earl Hobbs, Bill Schramm, and Bob Cooper.

Since the fall of 1945, the men have been at work, or at a reasonable facsimile of such if one exaggerates a little, This work has employed engineers, ditch diggers, carpenters, paint- ers, brick layers, shovel leaners, gossip mongers, and Mr. Phillips. In the last few years the pro- ject was accelerated to a new high in building. The men only struck 293 out of 365 days' those years. The gymnasium, stadium, athletic field, and lunchroom cover an area of four blocks, 9 yards, 2 feet, 5 inches, and 23 centimeters. They are still figuring the milli- meters. The buildings were completed with only a. minimum of noise, confusion, and work. It is re- markable that with such a large undertaking only 18 students were killed by flying timber, Six were injured from falling in holes, and Gab Hirsch was cut in half because the workmen mis'took him for a board. When the foreman reported the completion of their ten years' labor, Mr. Latta swooned and no one has been able to bring him out of it as yet. The boys of the high school will take over the new gymnasium for their athletics as soon as the girls Iinish their jacks tourna- ment, WARNING The staff deems it necessary to tell you that you read at your own risk.

Mzss Amerlca Chosen On the sunny beaches of Cali- fornia crowds have been gathered for the past week to watch the competition for Miss America of 1956. Never has such an ar- ray of beauty been gathered in one place! As each sylph approached, Obs and AWS arose from the crowd. The judges could not make a decision, so the contest was pro- longed a week. At last, their choice was an- nounced, and Martha Ruddy as 'fMiss Webster Groves became the new Miss American for 1956, The other contestants who par- ticipated in the event were: Miss America of 1939, Miss Brooklyn, Miss Dead End-representing the Dead End Kids, Miss Gravel Ger- ty, Miss Lena the Hyenaibacked by Lil' Abner.

The highlight of the reunion will be the staging of the produc- tion 'fOut Town, by the mem- bers of the class, The Stage Manager, who talks all the time will be portrayed by Joe Stehlin, who was chosen for his qualifica- tions in this field. Miss Gibbs, the town gossip, will be played by Marilyn Rice. Mrs. Webb will be played by Nancy Lee Nansen- someone has to know how to act. The actors and actresses have been rehearsing the play tireless'ly and are very anxious to present the play. They have arranged for a one night stand in Brooklyn, and the house is already sold outvto dot- ing relatives. The whole show is being angeled by Fred Buck, the notorious Webster tycoon who has spent lavishly to make the play a success. The date of the opening per- formance is Suesday, August 32nd, LOST Comtesse Frednara Parkerski who has just signed a three year contract with the Metropolitan Opera Company to sing 'tCricket On The Hearth has lost her voice.

Kidding Sponsor..Mr. Settle tHe sufferedj fAny resemblance of the Gazing Globe to the Webster Echo is pre- meditatedj Steve Schmid A Murderer! Webster must now claim a murderer, along with its states- men, famous theatrical people, and garbage collectors. Steve Schmid, voted one of the most industrious and most likely to succeed by his senior class at Webster High, has' committed a social offense unbelievable to Emily Post. Authorities were shocked that such an intelligent young man would commit such an intolerable error. The scene of the murder took place in Webster Groves High School, Room 108. Steve had returned to pay a visit to his old French teacher, Miss Woods, whom he had been very fond of in his high school days- s'he had given him all A's at the point of a gun, Miss Woods and Schmid had a nice chat, and when he rose to leave Miss Woods asked him to conjugate the French verb avoir, On Steve's first utterance Miss Woods went running from the room screaming, You fiend, to think that anyone could murder the French language so! Schmid has been held without bail in 109 until he can conjugate the verb properly. It was' a cold morning in .Tan- uary, Bob was trying to start his car, and steam was pouring from the engine, Jim: Hey, Bob, your car's smoking. Bob: f'That's all rightg it's old enoughff My love has flew Him did me dirt Me did not know Him was a flirt. To they in love I here forbid Lest they be doed As I been did. Say! I thought you said your brother was not living, and I hear he's in jail, What! You call that life! Flight to the Moon Professor James Deitz has just accomplished the most amazing, spectacular feat ever kn-own to man. He has flown to the moon! This trip has been in the plan- ning for months. The piofessor had consulted endlessly with the greatest flying experts, Pat Bau- man and Valerie Blaes', and with their help and advice was able to reach this great height, The spec- troship, built by Deitz, surpasses any scientific model of its type. He has been working on it for years in the utmost secrecy. His only confident has been Doc Schultz from Webster Groves who inspired him and urged him to finish his great undertaking, This' long dreamed of ambition has finally been fulfilled, and to think that a Webster man has achieved it. Missouri is proud of her scientist. The faculty of Webster Groves High School is planning a large banquet for Professor Deitz and will present him with a plaque in honor of the occasion. The date of this banquet is not scheduled to be set until Professor Deitz -Un find a way to get off the moon. New Airline To Be Built The well-known D8l'SOIlag6, Mr. Watkins from Hudson Bay, and vi ho is known as Jiggaboo Jay to his old classmates at Webster, has been assigned the task -of clearing the jungles of Brazil for a new landing trip for They Fly So High Airline. This is to be a very important job, and will tend towards good feelings on the part of this' coun- try and Brazil-if anything is left of Brazil when the project is fin- ished. tNo offense to Mr. VVat- kins.J The company has also hired Mr. Donal Harris of Gil- man's Gulch as foreman of the job, and yes-man to Mr. Watkins, With this team at Work the air- line expects to be finished fyou can take this literallyj in several months. Watkins and Harris will make the trip to Mexico in a '32 Buick they have salvaged from the an- tique department of the scrap iron museum. Mr. Watkin's last as- signment was the razing of the old homestead called Tamp Nu- guet. When asked why he had under- taken such a difficult task of plowing through jungles, Mr. Watkins replied: lt reminds me of my 'overlands' back in Web- sterf' Mr, 'Curtis Burton is the promoter of the new airline. -125' -- DOINGS OF THE SENATE Last week Senator William 'fAnge Peterson, Jr., delivered his earth-shaking speech CWash- ington was having an earth- Cluakel to the Senate: This ora- tion is dest.ned to be recorded in the annals of men tif the printer can translate ith. This subject has been before the house for months, but Senator Peterson was the first to gather enough courage to bring it forth. He started a filibuster in which he delivered the Gettys- burg Address, all of Einstein's the-ories, told how to train fleas, and expounded at length the de- tails of his mile run in the 220 yard dash against Cunningham, who was left behind on the first IRD-he slipped on a banana peel. We have selected this quote as a highlight from his' speech: t'On the theory of Snickelfritz found in Article 6, page 29, column 2, near the middle, to the right of the 3rd comma, and below the 2nd semicolon of his 4th book on Socialistic Establishment of World Unity, the differential and integral calculus of framestein damoloff malagapap closely associated with 1'nticlisestablishidedmanterianism is all a bunch of hooey-bunk that is.

However, mos't of the rats have been driven from downtown St. Louis to the county, Webster Groves has especially been infest- ed with these animals. Webster High has had its share. The rat experts say they were attracted to the school by the piano music of a Webster Alum- nus, Steve Kohlbry, who had re- turned to play Your Feetis Too Big, for the a cappella choir. We mus't get rid of these rats: so as I see it, the first thing to do is rid Webster of Steve Kohlbry. The rats might follow him, as they did the Pied Piperg this might be especially true of the leaders Cappel and Art, as they are personal friends of Steve. This battle against the rats in alleys, restaurants', and homes must be successful, Other places in Webster which are over-run with rats are Cordes' Tavern, Rippley's Beanery, and the alley behind the home of Mr. Norman Carlson, THESE must be cleaned up. Webster, get behind this campaign: and rid your county of RATS. Seen About Town . . . Local spendthrift and playboy Fred Buck making the rounds with that noted philosopher, Charles Stephens ....

LEFT AT THE CHURCH A most tragic ending to a beau- tiful romance has occurred. Miss Betty Bachle, attractive Webster Groves socialite, and Mr. Charles Stephens, now situated with M. A, C., had set their Wedding date for April 1st, It was to be held at 'The Little Synagogue Around the Block, on 2nd and 6th Streets. A large reception with hundreds of invited guests and Herb, the uninvited, had been planned with a three tiered cake and kegs of beer. . At 2:00 a. m. Betty arrived at the church, and its pews filled rapidly with people who had come to see the nuptials so long looked forward to. Many were Betty and Charles' old schoolmates who re- membered so well seeing them supporting the wall outside 103. 2:30 arrived and Betty, beautiful in her wedding finery and her hair curled, was waiting for the strains of the wedding march. Where was the groom? An hour passed, as hours have a way of doing, but still the groom did not appear, The guests left, the min- ister left. the family left. All went to find Charles'. But to no avail! Finally a little boy, on his way to deliver the morning papers, disclosed that Charles had been in such a hurry to reach the church that he did not look where he was going, fell in a man-hole, and disappeared forevermore. Moral: NEVER walk to church. Generally speaking, women are-- Yes, they are? What are they? Generally speaking. LUNCH CHECK: The tin you love to touch. Miss Howard: What are the beauties of education? Marc Gautier: School teach- ers. Carolyn Hartnett: Who's that cute boy from Eden? Arlene Elbring: i'It must be Adam. Mr. Settle: Mr, Gonz, leave the room. Jack: I ain't doin' nothin'. Mr. Settle: That's why I want you to leave. --126- KILROY FOUND The long, thorough, ten-year search of the F. B. I. for the mys- terious gentleman known as Kil- roy has not been in vain. Yester- day at the Forest Park play- ground, located in Forest Park, two blocks from the Zoo, Kilroy was discovered. Bob Busse, now head of the F. B. I.-department of We Must Find Kilroy Club, caught him in the act, as he took candy from a baby, knocked down his fort, and was writing Kilroy was here in the ruins of the sand box. Busse nabbed him, and took him to the station where he un- derwent a terrific cross-examina- ti-on. He was given the lst degree, the 2nd degree, the 3rd degree, and since Busse couldn't count higher, they quit. F. B. I. men all over the nation have been on the trail of Kilroy unceasingly. At one stage of the search, they were led to the Webster Groves High School where Kilroy had marked up the Walls, desks, and blackboards, but they could not find him. For hours Kilroy was grilled, and finally, by the promise of a ride on the merry-go-round, Kilroy was persuaded to remove his cheesecloth mask. At last Kilroy's true identity was made known. He was none other than i'Musie Owen! Tom Patrick Wins Phi Beta Kappa Key Tom Patrick, alumnus of Web- ster Groves High School of 1946, has been awarded the Phi Beta Kappa Key. This brilliant scholar of philosophy was given this award because of his' outstanding volumes on different phases of the subject, His works are said to surpass even those of Con- fucious, Aristotle, and Plato-not the dog! Mr. Patrick finished his education at Notre Dame and Won his B. S., M, D., LL. D., M, A., Ph, D., B. Ed., and P. U. at Ox- ford. Last year Patrick was voted the World's Foremost Educa- tor by the Antartic Asylum As- sociation. The story behind Pat- rick's success started in the plas- ter halls of our old Webster High, Tom won many honors at Webster for his scholarshipg but this was not his' fault. Such an intelligent mind was not understood by the faculty at Webster, and thus he suffered from the D's and F's they inflicted upon him. We struggling street cleaners and bottle washers now have a goal set before us. What Patrick has done, we, too, can do.

Lonely Dear Miss Lonely: I am a young girl of 57 who needs' the companionship of a wealthy man. He must be tall, dark, handsome, and 2l-prefer- ably unmarried, I have searched for the right man for years, but in vain. I'm so miserable for no one will have me. I cannot understand it, for I am very easy to get along with. I'm 6 feet tall, knock-kneed, pigeon toed, cross-eyed, and rheumatic. I have a lovely home on Trash Alley, have never had any com- plaint on my cooking-they didn't live to tell it. There has to be a solution to my problem somewhere. Can you help me, Miss Lonely? What shall I do? Sincerely, Miss Ima Goon Dear Miss Ima Goon: Shoot yourself. Most sincerely, Miss Y, B. Lonely The Theory of Kaiser and Fariss Two remarkable men in the Held of science, mathematics, and what have you, have discovered a new theory, These men are Bernard Kaiser and Robert Fariss both of Webster Groves. Their theory is on relativity. Einstein insists it is a direct steal on his theories, but Kaiser and Fariss have triumphed where Ein- stein failed. They have found the 4th dimension. This dimension is based on the three dimens'ions- length, Width, and depth, world evolution, time, and the bumps on the skin of an alligator combined in the 'tbonds of chemical affin- ity fthank you, Docl. The two men reached the dis- covery of this dimension by jumping at conclusions - how else? The world's greatest scien- tists and mathematicians have pondered over this dimension f-or yearsg and now they mus't ponder on the explanation, for not even Fariss nor Kaiser understands the newest discovery. Now the two scientists are try- ing to recover from their condi- tion of mania, and then they will set to work again-this time in search of the 5th dimension, Gompfiments CLARENCE NAHIVI BLASE'S BARBECUE Berry and Manchesier Roads TUT NUVELTY EU T he Flrst Plank m 1 Our Platform is . . .

At last I am a senior despite the doubts of my parents and teachers that I would ever make the goal. A halffday schedule is going to make this year an even more unusual and difficult oneg yet I feel sure after only the first day that our senior class will be one of the best ever. Advanced Choir began their year of activities with their annual getftogether picnic. Skits included impersonations of Miss Rep and a rendition of Chloe The first assembly of the year was given today, and here's hoping that there will be many more. Come on, everybody, and buy an Activity Ticket! A fashion show and a melodrama entitled The Lamp Went Out were pref sented at the G. A. A. rush party. To acquaint new students with school activities a -party was given by the Student Council in the Little Theater. Statesmen trample C. B. C., 19f0, in a swell football game. Nearly 'broke my back on the Echo Paper strengthftesting machine at the Fun and Fiddle tonight, and also my arm throwing at The Craziest Man in Captivityf' Webster Groves is famous! We made the Hit Parade tonight with Gordon Jenkins, song, i'I'Iomesick. Webster fans sat on the edges of their seats as our boys tied Normandy in the last seconds of the game. Webster continues undefeated as the Statesmen beat Ritenour, 19f6. Ate hot dogs at the Y weiner roast afterwards. Collected bars of soap in preparation for tonight. 140 highfspirited football fans traveled noisily by bus to Hannibal and returned home at 1:20 the next morning rather sleepy but elated over Webster's 20f0 victory. No school! Yes, you'll have to admit it that at times those teachers are pretty swell! i'Quality Street was presented by the dramatics department. Became quite hoarse at the big pep rally and program given to keep Webster and Kirkwood students on a friendly basis. Let's have more of the 'iBackroom Trio. Hallelujah! Ring out the bells! We no longer have the little brown jug in our possession after a most pleasing 12f0 victory over Kirkwood in brutally cold, windy weather. I still think I left a few frostbitten toes scattered amongst the bleachers. Dotty Worley and Joan Falvey were crowned Webster and Kirkwood Football Queens, respectively, at the traditional Friendship Dance. Gordon Jenkins, the finger, thrilled students by appearing in an assembly and playing requested numbers on the piano. Webster thinclads won over C. B. C., 23f17, in the first basketball game of the season. The Latin 'Club gave its annual Christmas party after school today. Vespers were more inspiring than ever, and I felt a special pang of remorse in realizing that this is my last Christmas at W.G.H.S. That man was here again! Siatesmen were nosed out by Wellston in the Christmas Tournament, 3029. All good things must come to an end, Qso somebody saidj and here I am back once more to haunt the halls and hate the homework. Seniors and juniors spent the afternoon taking Ohio Scholastic Aptitude tests. Oh, why do I have to be so dumb? More tests-this time exams.
