Book of Beginnings, Story Without End, Each maid a heroine. and each man a friend! -LONGFELLOW Zami Youth soon will move into new positions in which their success depends largely upon their abilities developed during high school. High school life furnishes Youth with competent lead- ers, sound basic knowledge, interests for strong bodies and alert minds, and friends with whom to combine their efforts. The world of tomorrow awaits the Youth of today-so it is to Youth that we, the Echo StaH, dedicate our book. :2 EaEZ H2555 1 Q EQ if X Q: .:.. .,,3, ., 'E Mm.. . , ' . NNW? Ak- iw is S i 1 T X?

Roberts gymnasium is an imposing struc- ture which will serve the needs of the Webster Groves schools and community for many years. , It has a frontage of 121 feet and a depth of 157 feet. The architecture is of Georgian style, which harmonizes with the school building. The gymnasium, with a basket- ball court of 50 feet by 84 feet, is arranged with a permanent bal- cony along two sides and two tiers of roll-back bleachers on the main floor. Other facilities are a large corrective room, three locker rooms with necessary showers, drying room, equipment rooms, and offices. Space for a rifie range is also available on the fourth floor. The school cafeteria is located on the ground Hoorg and in connec- tion with that, there are a large kitchen, storage rooms, dishwash- ing room, utility rooms, and office -all of which can be completely shut off from the cafeteria so that the dining hall can be used with ease for dinners and programs. The building was dedicated in memory of Charles A. Roberts at an open house and basketball game held in December, 1947. I I I Individual personalities of Youth are quite often inHuenced by the self-reliance, the leadership, and the high standards of character of their teachers, advisers, and student administrators. MA The most important resource of a great country is its youth. Its vitality and vigor center in them, its future lies in their char- acter and ability. Future leadership in the professions, business, industry, and cultural pursuits depends directly upon the initiative and resourcefulness of its young people. It is no exaggeration to say that their responsi- bilities are immense. Likewise, their oppor- tunities were never greater. Never before has youth had the privilege of unlocking such doors of discovery and en- tering such a treasure house of fascination. Our frontiers were not closed in the last cen- LEONARD A. STEGER Superintendent, Webster Groves Schools tury nor in the early part of this century. They are literally being opened wider day by day. Science and technology demand well- trained mindsg commerce, trade, and indus- try call for energy and skillg religion, educa- tion, and government need leaders with a desire to improve the general welfare. These are only a few of the numerous fields which challenge the skill and imagination of youth. The world is full of challenge as youth looks ahead. Its frontiers will never close. Within those vast frontiers youth will mold their own dimensions and sketch their own horizons. Just a moment of relaxation. Hello, there! All in a day's work. ,12.. HOWARD A. LATTA Principal, Webster Groves High School Quik Youth as a span of life is variously looked upon. Some would describe it as a time of being light-hearted, irresponsible, frivolous, aimless-perhaps fallaciously called the play period of life. The actions of some thoughtless, selfish youth do so betray their group. However, the great majority of youth have an idealism, a straight-forwardness, and a genuineness that can seldom characterize the majority of people in any of the succeed- ing spans of life. Give youth a fair oppor- tunity at life's more serious obligations-the challenge of an emergency-and no other group will arise to the occasion with greater vigor, determination, fearlessness, or sincer- ity of purpose. In our twentieth century America much of our youth is spent in high school. That span of our life is to a great extent charac- terized by how our school served us and how we served our school. We grow or fail to grow in our ability to get along with others: we assume or fail to assume responsibility and leadershipg we become or fail to become self-directive and self-educative: and we make or fail to make lasting friendships. Youth is an important. and purposeful span in our life. So may it have been for those who graduated in 1948-so may it be for those who are to carry on at Webster High. Operator ? Reminiscing.

Instead of meeting once a week, as it did formerly, the Council met every day the fifth hour. Business was transacted on Tues- days and Fridays. Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays were devoted to informal dis- cussions. The meets were conducted by Jean Weaver, president of the senior school. Other oiiicers were: Bill Vickroy, treasurerg and Suzy Sturges, secretary. The sponsor was Mr. Settle. Members of the Council were elected by their respective grades. The mem- bership this year consisted of thirty-ive in- dustrious and co-operative students. One of the main projects that the Council sponsored was the magazine drive. With the aid of the student body and the Council mem- bers, the drive was a big success. The school cleared over 31400. This money was divided among several organizations. Other activi- ties that the Council sponsored were: Activ- ity ticket sales, the Turkey Day program. noonday movies, and numerous assemblies. ' The governing body of the Junior School is the Junior Student Council. The Council held its meetings every Wednesday afternoon. The group consisted of members elected from the various homerooms. In order that each homeroom would be represented at every meeting, a representative and alternate were elected. After the meetings itwas the duty of the individual representatives to report the business to his respective homeroom. The ofiicers of the Council were: Roger Clark, president, Meryl Schmidt, vice-presidentg and Russel Simmons, secretary-treasurer. Miss Brantley was the sponsor of the organization. The Junior Student Council was a great help in making the magazine drive a big suc- l cess. Their enthusiasm and interest played a large part in the success of the drive. l The Council had control of the Monitors. Many of the Monitors were Student Council The law makers and breakers? representatives. Members of this organiza- tion controlled the conduct of the students in the halls and lunchroom. At the end of the year the Council conducted the student elec- tion. unior .gguclenf Counci Shillington, Roderick, Osborne, Dietz, Millard, Meffert, Harrison, Cruishank, Frier, Mockler, Nelson.

They no longer must look at the seniors with envy, for their time is almost here. They are now ready to take on the important position of being the school leaders, the Senior Class. The Junior Class was composed of two hundred and eighty energetic and enthusi- astic students. They were divided into nine homerooms. The rooms were under the guid- ance of Mr. Barnett, Mrs. Bodman, Mrs. Gree- son, Mrs. Weirich, Mr. Jones, Mr. Leek, Miss Pruehs, Miss Sutherland, and Miss Swank. Each homeroom elected its o-wn president, vice-president, and secretary to aid their homeroom teacher. From this class, ten students were elected to serve on the Student Council. They were Don Breckenridge, Jim Fitzgerald, Dave Frith, Marlene Gilliland, Herb Howe, Bob Peppel, Bill Schulz, Joan Sousley, and Bob Rutishauser. Three juniors, Levon Zakarian, Don Breckenridge, and Bob Rutishauser, were elected to the Guidance Council. Miss Jones was the class counselor, and gave the students good advice about college prepara- tion. She gave the juniors their class aver- age, hoping it would help them make their plans for the future. Many members of the class were active in extra-curricular activities. They partici- pated in various clubs and after-school sports. Several juniors made the varsity teams in both girls' and boys' sports. The junior-senior dance was planned and given by the Junior Class. The class is now ready to have its turn of relaxing and allowing the next Junior Class to provide the entertainment. The school legislature is now in the hands of the Junior Class. We know senior tradi- tions will be carried on in fine style. -50- Man's best friend. Swimmer meets golfer. F'our G's .

Buck Weaver was elected presidentg Oliver Biederman, vice-president: and Mary Wyrick, secretary. The class has been active in the clubs and social activities of the school. Sophomores took an important part in boys' and girls' athletics, Scribblers, Latin Club, Camera Club, Rifle Club, Beginning Choir, the Band, Red Cross, Y Clubs, G. A. A., and the Student Council. The only required subjects in the tenth grade were English and physical education. A typical Sophomore program includes biol- ogy, a language, a mathematics course Kalge- bra or plane geometryj, and music. The class had a party in March. The gyms were decorated and after the entertain- ments, which consisted of movies and side- shows, refreshments were served. There was also a class picnic in the spring. All class activities were planned by the cabinet, which was made up of the home- room presidents. They were: Al Eschen- roeder, Art Costello, Jack Hodges, Harold Whitney, Zane Peavey, Gerald Lee, David Miller, Sally Detjen, and Robert Hunsaker. The conference room teachers were: Miss Farmer, Miss Dorothy Hoover, Miss Camp- bell, Mrs. Hamaker, Miss Epps, Mr. Shelton, Miss Pickel, Miss Hackett, Miss Saxon, and Miss Fiehler. Class meetings were held on vocational guidance. Three speakers came to each meet- ing, and the students chose which of the three different discussions they wished to take part in. At these meetings students were told about the different fields of occupation. In group conferences, the members of the class discussed social relations. Each group consisted of about twenty students under the leadership of Miss Epps, the grade counselor. During the year each sophomore had an indi- vidual conference with Miss Epps to check credits for graduation and to encourage the student to think about his vocation. -.541 Sunlight Sonata.

Miss McClain sponsored the class. At the beginning of the year Don Meffert was elected president of the class. The class president together with the homeroom presi- dents, Ann Roberts, Bob Wood, Susan Craw- ford, Frank Frier, Jim Shields, Ervin Dunkel, Rosemary Dysart, Amy Forsythe, and George Jackson, formed the freshman cabinet. The cabinet handled the business of the class and appointed different committees. One of the committees planned various par- ties throughout the year. In the fall they had a square-dancing party, and later in the year two other parties were given. In the spring, individual conferences were held with the class counselor. The purpose of the conference was to plan the student's program and to explain school routine and the amount of credits needed for graduation. l There were many organizations open for the freshmen. Many of the students were active in the Junior Red Cross, Student Coun- cil, Monitors, and the Scribblers. A freshman had several choices to make concerning his studies. The only two re- quired subjects were English and physical education. The student chose his other sub- jects according to his after-school plans. There were many electives from which the freshman could make his choice. Among these choices were ancient history, social science, French, Spanish, Latin, foods, cloth- ing, manual training, business practice, band, orchestra, algebra, general mathematics, and chorus. The freshmen also helped in keeping the new cafeteria clean. At the opening of the new gym some of these students served as guides for the visiting public. P Many of the boys and girls were inter- ested in sports. There were outstanding players who will help a great deal on future varsity teams. 158- Woodpeckers. In the days of old.

Each homeroom elected a president, vice- president, and secretary. This year the eighth graders were re- quired to take English and social studies, bet- A ter known as a bloc , which is a two-hour , period. Mathematics and physical education are both full-year subjects. The girls studied l home economics for one semester, while the boys were busy with industrial arts. The second semester both boys and girls learned crafts in the art rooms. Other semester re- quired courses were geography and general science. Some students chose band or chorus. The students who enrolled in experimental Spanish and French continued that subject the second year. They also participated in - after-school sports. The girls played volley- Ready for a party? -60-- ' ball and the boys played intra-mural basket- ball and bombardment. During November when the magazine campaign was in progress, the eighth graders were very active in selling their quota. Believing in the saying All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy , the Fifty- Tooters organized a dancing club which met every Tuesday night. The club, sponsored gigdfd gjracle by the parents, engaged Mrs. Laura House Sutter, from the Sutter Studios, as dancing instructor. The first class was open for the parents to observe. During the course of in- struction five parties were held. Each one was of a different type than the others. About ten couples of parents served as chap- erones every Tuesday night. After a productive year these students were eager to start high school. Lacey, Pieper, Nitzsche, Kaber, Lyon, Montgomery, Kick, Parker, Paden.

They might have been lost on the first day, some might have misplaced their lunch money, or others might have rolled down half a flight of stairs, but it didn't take the new seventh graders long to become accus- tomed to being Webster High students. The seventh grade was not organized as a class, but each homeroom elected its own officers. Also they sent representatives to the Junior Student Council and to the Junior Red Cross. Some of the other organizations in which the students became active were the Scribblers' Club and the Boys' Choir. The program of studies for the seventh graders was the same for most of them. Two periods of the day were devoted to bloc , which consisted of English and social studies. One period a week a trip to the library was made from bloc . Other courses included math, gym, one semester each of science and speech, and vocal music alternated with Span- ish, study or art. Instead of the latter some of the students chose instrumental music. During the year several class assemblies were given by the students themselves. Their -64.- assemblies were of many different types, such as music and talent programs, a play by the speech classes, and a special Christmas pro- gram. Something new introduced the past year was the set conference that Miss Jackson, the seventh grade counselor, had with each student. At this conference the student's ellen gfaje progressive achievement tests were dis- cussed, guidance and personality rating cards were observed, and preparation for the eighth grade was considered. The homeroom teachers for the seventh grade were Miss Bailey, Mrs. Di Dea, Miss Kemp, Mr. Reeves, Miss Roberts, Miss Shep- ardson, Mrs. Stolberg, and Miss Tompkins.

The Red Cross is an organization made up of students elected by the various home- rooms. Their duty is to serve the school and community in every way possible. The first topic on the group's agenda was the enrollment drive which began early in October. They collected 310585, which was used to finance the Red Cross and their activities. Christmas time was the busiest time of the year. Sufficient money was collected to buy and wrap 42 gift boxes to be sent to the children of the war-torn countries of Europe. A caroling group under the direction of Miss Replogle sang for the hospitalized veterans at Jefferson Barracks on December 23. The work crews wrapped and prepared packages for overseas shipment. The Hub-Ketters Uunior Red Cross Mo- tor Corps Auxiliaryj was formed this year. The members collected favors and other sup- plies which were made for veterans. Betty Lou Harris was president and Miss Saxon was the group sponsor. -68- i Just because the students are smaller than the Senior School does not mean they do a smaller amount of work. This was aptly proven by the Junior Red Cross. The mem- bers performed a fine job this year in all their projects. They held their enrollment drive at the same time as the Senior School. The money collected was used to finance the Red Cross and its services. The members helped a great deal around Christmas time to make other people hap- pier on Christmas Day. Three of the girls decorated the trees on the lawn of the Red Cross Chapter House. The main project was the making of stuffed animals. Miss Little helped the girls with the animals. For a little extra decoration the girls tied a Christ- mas bell around the neck of each animal. The members also made many Christmas menu covers which were used by the hospitals. Carol Porter was president of the junior group and Miss Shepardson was its sponsor. Good Samaritans. uni or pea!

To make everyone a better citizen is a high aim, but the Student Guides sincerely believe it can be done. This group merely watched that the students of Webster took care of themselves at noontime. The boys are stationed in the cafeteria, second-iioor hall, and in the auditorium. There were thirty-eight guides from the junior and senior classes. These boys were chosen for their leadership and scholastic standing. After committing two minor offenses, such as cutting in the lunch line, or one major offense, the Violator is brought before the Guidance Council. The Council had for its chairman the senior school president, and the membership consisted of four representatives elected from the Senior Class and three each elected from the Junior and Sophomore Classes. The Council does not set a penalty for an offense, but simply discusses the shortcoming of the student. In this way the Violator learns how to become a better member of the school. -70- Law and order at the noon hour was an important problem in the Junior School, and it was the Monitors' work to see that this law and order was enforced. There were some forty boys under the sponsorship of Miss Brantley who gave up the good part of their lunch period every day to serve as Monitors. The group was chosen by the student body, members of the Junior Student Council, and through the recommendations of several teachers. The most important of their duties was to watch the lunch and check lines, and to see that the lunch room was neat at the end of the period. These Monitors were divided into five sections, with a captain for each group. The captains were Lee Carlson, Roger Clark, Frank Frier, Bill Beallie, and Don Mef- fert. Another group of the Monitors, how- ever, were posted at different positions in the halls to see that certain areas were blocked off. What's your hurry?

Dur- ing those ten days all the articles must be written and the pages assembled so that everything fits perfectly. Of the remaining two days, one is used to go to the printers and the other to distribute the paper. The work put into assembling the pages is the most concentrated, but that extra bit of work and ingenuity on the part of the staff's thirty members and its sponsor, Miss Mary Howard, has made this year's paper one of the best ever. Its Thanksgiving issue with the orange Beat Kirkwood on the front, and the big picture in the Christmas issue have made the paper just a little dif- ferent than usual. The Webster Echo has won All-American rating several times, is a charter member of the National Scholastic Press Association, and also a member of two other national journalistic societies. -72.. The French Club elected Nancy Anthony as the one to preside over all meetings. Her familiar opening phrase was La Seance est 0uverte . Barbara Pohle, vice-president, acted as historian for the group. The min- utes of the previous meeting were read by the secretary, Suzanne Sturges, while Dor- othy Schulte, the treasurer, kept all money records straight. S The meetings were held in room 108 every other Friday afternoon at three o'clock under the sponsorship of Miss Wood. During their meetings they held initiations for new mem- bers, sang French songs, and had guest speakers. The club took many field trips. They visited the Art Museum, where they viewed many famous French paintings. One evening was spent at the Art Theatre seeing a French film. It was interesting to hear the French language spoken fluently. A visit to Ste. Genevieve, the oldest French town in Missouri, was another highlight. The purposes of the club were to make French a more popular language and to learn to speak French more fluently. l Want to try for S64?

This year the club consisted of about eighty members from the Vergil, Cicero, and Caesar classes. Meet- ings were held once a month and were con- ducted by Nancy Diekroeger, president. Oth- er officers were: Ann Martin, vice-president, Susan Metcalfe, secretary, Luanne Gewinner, treasurer: and Skippy Slade, historian. Miss Hazel K. Farmer sponsored this organization. The club held a Christmas party and in the spring the annual banquet at which the next year's officers were presented. A spe- cial program was given in April in celebra- tion of Latin Week.

The answer to this standard question is usually No , but why not ask a member of the Latinus Rumor staff-they are pretty well informed in mat- ters along that line. The Latinus Rumor prints anything from articles of Latin to let- ters from old Latin students--ones that at- tended Webster High School, that isg not Plato or Socrates. The Latinus Rumor is really an outstand- ing Latin paper published by members of the Latin Club and Miss Farmer for the Latin students. It has an amazing circulation for its sizealmost one hundred per cent. It also has a nationwide reputation and sends and receives many exchange papers from other schools. It featured news of general interest plus a few jokes and crossword puzzles in every issue of the paper. During Latin week the paper was extra large and carried lots of news about the national week and also the activities carried on here at Webster. Semmelmeyer, Harrison, Howe, Laatsch, Henley.

The Annual is one of the most impor- tant projects in the school because it is the most nearly complete pictoral record of our school, its students, and its activities. The Echo staff this year was made up of about twenty students, and the work was divided into two main divisions: editorial and business. The activities of the co-editors included outlining the book, planning divisions, writ- ing the dedications, foreword, and division headings, and editing the administration sec- tion. The staff of writers furnished the copy in all the other divisions. The work of the business staff was the financing of the book, which was done through advertising, subscriptions, and the sale of Turkey Day buttons, candy bars at home football games, and Webster decals for cars. The book store was operated by the junior business staff. Being on the Annual staff did not always require hard work. At Thanksgiving and at Christmas, parties with ice cream and cake for refreshments were given by the staff. At the Christmas party there was a Christmas tree which held a present for each member. The Echo also sponsored the Coronation of the Echo Queen. The Coronation court consisted of seniors who could fulfill four requirements: at least a C average for three and one-half years, participation in at least one after-school activity, attendance at Webster High for both junior and senior years, and election by the Senior Class. The girls chosen for the court. selected their escorts. From this court the Senior Class elected the Special Maids of Honor, and from the Maids of Honor the Echo Queen was elected by the entire senior school. Just a bunch of spooks. Maids-in-Waiting -77-.

The club took a few camera hikes to For- est Park, where they snapped nature pictures of all types. Architecture was also a favor- ite subject. Cful . 'U O. CM The Audio-Visual Operators were of great service to the school during the year. Under the leadership of their officers, Ralph Flint, Dick Lonergan, and Al Seider, they became familiar with the movie projector and public- address system.

Soon after the opening of school last fall, about forty eager chemistry students met in room 205, commonly known as the lab , and formed the Chemistry Club. All activities were carried out almost entirely by the mem- bers, with Doc Schulz there to see that the students wouldn't get blown out of the school. The club was made up of seniors and met every other Tuesday after school. The object of the club was to further the interest in chemistry for the students by having them conduct experiments before the group. In this way the club members could increase their knowledge of chemistry. Some of the experiments presented were on distil- lation processes and the purification of water. A discussion and question period followed each experiment. At the first meeting the officers for the year were elected and a program committee was set up. The officers were as follows: Bill Vickroy, presidentg Martin Kohlbry, vice-president: and John Muth, secretary- treasurer. Molecules, and more molecules.

An enviable position that some thirty girls held is that of working in the school office. They were all members of Mrs. Gree- son's clerical classes and they applied their knowledge of clerical work to the many odd jobs in the high school office. The girls were chosen on the basis of their clerical ability and their previous school record. There were two girls working in the office each hour. They typed bulletins, cut stencils, answered the 'phone, delivered announce- ments, handled mailing lists, and performed other office duties required of them. After working in the office for a year the girls felt that they were qualified to work in a business office outside of school. They gained actual working experience from per- forming their office duties. If a girl proved herself capable of good work, the office administrators often em- ployed that girl for paid work after school hours or during the summer vacation. Work in the high school office often led to recom- mendations which helped secure a well-pay- ing position for the girls upon gradlliltion. -..80.- During the past year, trips to the library were made easy through the help of the li- brary assistants. This group of students gave up their study period to do a job which aims at making the library popular. Miss Bynum, who was assisted by Miss Jones and Mrs. Holiday, directed them. Heading the list of duties of the library assistants was the task of checking books in and out. Also work in the annex on special jobs and numerous errands to run kept the assistants busy. There were at least two stu- dents in the library every period. For Book Week each assistant was al- lowed to pick out a book at the Doubleday Book Shop. The books were then purchased and placed on the library shelves. Also dur- ing Book Week a number of the assistants served at a tea which the library gave for the teachers. Last fall the library assistants elected Elaine Henley, president: John Porter, vice- presidentg and Walter Stoeker, secretary- treasurer. Porter, Colmey, Schnorbus, Heath.

The Hi-Y had an active year under the leadership of Art Fedder, president for the first semesterg Al Kaegel, president for the second semester, and Mr. Brown, the sponsor. At Thanksgiving the organization combined with the Kirkwood Hi-Y to present the an- nual Friendship Dance, which was held at Webster this year. One of the Hi-Y's most important projects was the publication of the Buzz Book . In October there was a hay- ride at Ingle Hill farm for the members and their dates. At the basketball tournament at Webster the members collected money for the March of Dimes. Meetings were held every Monday night at Club 17. There were two initiations, one in October and the other in February. Other officers besides the president for the first semester were: Al Kaegel, vice-presidentg Elmer Twente, treasurer, and Bob Schoen, secretaryg and for the second semester: Ron- ald Sprinkle, vice-presidentg John Wright, treasurer, and John Muth, secretary. This group of tenth grade girls, under the sponsorship of Miss Hackett, formed a club that was a combination of a social and a serv- ice organization. During the year they learned to know each other better at their own backward dance, slumber party, and initiation for new members. There were, however, many proj- ects of a more serious nature. The girls cleaned out the trophy case in the front hall, and they raised money for different charities. Some of the ways in which the money was raised were through popcorn, candy and cake sales, and by making stuffed orange and black dogs to sell at school. In the fall the following officers were elected: Carolyn Clark, president, Mary Wy- rick, vice-president, Clare Stevenson, secre- tary-treasurer, and Mary Alice Stafford, ser- geant-at-arms. A new group of officers was elected in the spring. These were: President, Mary Wyrickg vice-president, Barbara Davis, secretary-treasurer, Sandra Smith, and ser- geant-at-arms, Mary Ruth Schlatterbeck.

This organization was formed to further an interest in girls' athletics and to promote a feeling of good fellowship among the girls. To become a member a girl must earn 100 points, and to retain membership she must earn 50 points each semester. She may earn these points by participating in such after- school sports as hockey, basketball, Volley- ball, softball, table tennis, and swimming.

W , or a 2,000-point silver trophy. Three initiations were held this year in order to take in all the girls who were qualified. The first meeting was held on September 16. At this meeting the girls decided that meetings should be held on the first and third Tuesdays of each month. It was also at this meeting that the new officers took charge. The officers were: President, Peggy Todd, vice-president, Norma Bode, secretary, Ann Marting treasurer, Nancy Diekroegerg and sergeant-at-arms. Virginia Peterson. Miss Daniel and Miss Bailey were the sponsors of the group. G. A. A. had several money-making proj- ects, as they sponsored all the girls inter- scholastic games. They sold hot dogs and cokes at football games, and they sold Web- Trading Post- ster pennants and scarves at school. The last events were the annual Kampus King Dance, at which a senior boy was crowned king, and the banquet, held in May. The banquet was the closing sign for G. A. A. activities.

Missouri Stables every other week on Fridays was the schedule for the 1947-48 Riding Club. The club this year had a gala time riding and learning to ride at the same time. Some of the girls-the club is made up of girls, by the way-had lessons at the Missouri Stables, and they became rather expert on the riding question. Just ask them and see! The president, Chris MacVeagh, along with some of the better riders of the club, entered the Spring Horse Show. It takes a lot of time and hard work, besides a knowl- edge of horsemanship, to participate in those shows. One girl even made a riding jacket in clothing class to wear in the show! About seventeen of Webster's riding girls really turned out this year, and al- though the club in former years had a larger mixed membership, it could not have had more fun than this year's group. -86- Anyone in the beginning or advanced dramatic class who can hit a nail with a hammer is always welcomed with open arms at the Little Theater on Saturdays. This group of energetic students takes flats covered with muslin and turns them into beautifully painted walls, roofs, and doors. The light committee must be pre- pared to create any kind of atmosphere. One of the most important divisions of the Pro- duction Staff is the props group. The actors and actresses depend on the props people to have everything in place at the right time to make the play a success. Of course, costumes and make-up are very nec- essary to them in order to make the play effective. Other things that have to be taken care of are business, advertising, and house man- agement, which includes tickets, programs, announcements, posters, bills, royalties, checks, and proceeds. The members of this organization do not appear before the footlights, yet their work could make or break a play.

The requirements include average grades, a real interest in. dramatics, a willing worker, and one hundred hours of either working on the production staff or acting in the major productions put on by the depart- ment. The bids are sent out after each play. First the prospective members must go through a mock initiation prepared by the Thespians. Finally there is held a serious ceremony where the new members repeat the motto of the society, Act well your part, for therein your honor lies. Under the sponsorship of Miss Roberta Seibert, the dramatics director, the Thespians attended plays given by other schools plus exceptionally good ones that came to the American Theater. This year the dramatics department pre- sented three major productions: Our Hearts Were Young and Gay , First Lady , and Years Ago . The leaders of the group were: President, Jane Marting vice-president, Dick Cottam: secretary, Nancy Hillg and treasurer, Pris- cilla Johns. 188- 1 1 Quill and Scroll is an honorary journalis- tic organization for young people of high school age all over the world. To become a member one must write a required amount of material, or must do work in some other phase of journalism for a school publication. The members must also be in the upper third of the class. Those who are admitted must have had their work approved by the national officers and the local sponsor. The club this year was not very large, having only five members who had formally been initiated. When the first initiation was held in 1948, five new members were brought in. At the formal ceremony Miss Howard, the sponsor, Bill Vickroy, the president, and Miriam Ely, the secretary, read the initiation. Later in the spring another meeting was held at which several more members, both from the annual and the paper staffs, were ad- mitted. The Quills.

Mr. Ed- mund Detering was added to the staff as an assistant. His specialty was working with the woodwind instruments. From the ninety band members the fol- lowing were elected as officers: Ted Groetsch, president, Bob Smith, vice-presidentg Hardin Speeler, secretaryg Jim Case, treasurerg Caro- lyn Yoder and Marion Rosen, librarians. The Marching Band again this year, as in the past, added color to all of the home foot- ball games. The band made the trip to Han- nibal by bus, and they represented the school at the Turkey Day game. The Concert Band played for assemblies, the dedication of the Roberts Gym, and for neighboring schools. Small groups went caroling Christmas Eve. They also played at the St. Louis County District Music Festival, which was held at Webster, with Mr. Lemcke serving as chairman. The band, small en- sembles, and soloists received laudatory com- ments. The year was brought to a successful close with a party. 190- The Junior Band of seventy members met every day to learn the fundamentals of play- ing. Mr. Hans Lemcke and Mr. Edmund Detering stressed the necessity of good tone quality, rhythm, and posture. Some of the music studied most exten- sively this year were the Mantilla Over- ture , Prince and Jester Overture , and Marche Militaire . Once a week the stu- dents studied the elements of music theory. Their text was a workbook compiled by Mr. Lemcke. The Junior Band took part in the St. Louis County District Music Festival held in April at our Webster Groves High School. Many individuals played solos and partici- pated in ensemble groups. They received very satisfactory comments. The officers for the year were as follows: President, Bruce McGilawayg vice-president, David Daniel: secretary, Owen Wilderg treas- urer, Jeanne Bender: librarians, Dick Mont- gomery and David Lyon. Through this Junior Band Mr. Lemcke and Mr. Detering did a fine job of shaping the youth of Webster Groves into fine musi- cians.

However, they spent a portion of the period almost every day reading compositions from the extensive repertoire of symphonic literature. The orchestra was exceedingly busy this year playing for activities. They played for the open house of the new Roberts gym, the Webster Groves Theatre Guild, the Annual Memorial Concert, and at the St. Louis Dis- trict Music Festival. A concert featuring the graduating sen- iors as soloists was presented by the orches- tra. The 1947 orchestra featured Rene Wie- gert playing the Schumann Concerto in A- Minor for piano and orchestrag Richard Lotz, Von Weber's Concertino for clarinet and orchestra, and Chester Deuser playing Concerto for Tympani and Brass Choir . This year the orchestra presented Jean Weaver playing the Rachmaninoff Concerto in C-Minor for Piano . Mr. Carl Werner was the director of the organization. The president was Luanne Ge- winnerg vice-president, Jean Weaverg secre- tary, Joan Grayg treasurer, Pat McGeeg li- brarian, Frank Parker. -92- The Junior Orchestra was occupied primar- ily with developing the necessary skills to play the not too difficult numbers of the con- cert repertoire. Many works from the early 17th century composers down to the contem- porary American composers were studied. By practicing technical scales, arpeggios, and various rhythm and phrasing patterns, the student learned to control his instrument better. One period a week was devoted to study- ing the elements of music theory. Some of the more proficient students were given the opportunity of playing in the Senior Orches- tra. Recordings of the orchestra were made to be studied and kept for future reference. The students enjoyed hearing themselves on recordings. Various ensembles were formed to play at school assemblies and the music festival. ' At the beginning of the year, Tom Becker was elected president: Betty Jo Richter, vice- presidentg Willa Lee Yoder, secretary: Sue Gewinner, treasurerg Bill Tinker and Geral- dine Jenkins, librarians. The orchestra offered a wonderful oppor- tunity to all students who wished to study music.

A., Rotary Club, Lions Club, and Janu- ary and June graduations. The choir also sang in several assemblies. The traditional Vesper service was given five times, due to the large number of people who desired to attend. Following the last service, the an- nual alumni party was held in the Junior Boys' Gym. The first week in April the choir pre- sented the operetta H, M. S. Pinafore by Gilbert and Sullivan. -94...

As in previous years the choir partici- pated in the annual Vesper Service by sing- ing several sacred songs. The group also helped with the production of the operetta. This year there were approximately eighty members in the choir. They were all students from the sophomore and junior classes. At the beginning of the year the choir held a get-acquainted picnic at the home of Lois Laager. Shortly after this the offi- cers were elected. They chose Chink Schlatter, presidentg Bob Gremp, vice-presi- dent, Nancy Hagemann, secretary, Mary Wyrick, recording secretary, and Sandra Smith and Dick Straub, treasurers.

This is an elective course which was formed to further the girls' musi- cal knowledge. There are two classes of about sixty to a class who are under the supervision of Mrs. Waller. They learned the fundamentals of singing and began to realize the hard work that musicians go through. This year the girls sang a variety of songs which included spirituals and light operas.

For almost two hours the auditorium is trans- formed into the little town of Bethlehem as the kings and the lowly alike pay homage to the baby Jesus. This year marked a milestone in the his- tory of vespers, as the new organ was used for the first time. The purchase of the organ was made possible through donations of sev- eral Webster Groves organizations and resi- dents. From now on it will be a regular part of the service, and its set of chimes will add a great deal to the church-like atmosphere of the auditorium during the program. The vesper service given by the youth of Webster Groves High School has become almost symbolic of Christmas throughout the community as the traditional Christmas Eve services given in the churches.

However, team spirit brought the boys back fighting, and the Maple Leaves were raked aside twice for Fullback Don Quigley and once for Stahlhut-making the final score 18-12. A mediocre ball game was played the next Saturday afternoon against the fallen Wells- ton eleven. The game, which was supposed to have been a breather , ended in a 19-12 victory for Webster. The Normandy game clashed two of the most evenly matched teams in the district. A seven-up tie was the result of the battle. -100- Ugh!! Sweet revenge was the theme of the Rite- nour game because of our fog-bound defeat in 1946. The Huskies were trounced 20-6.

The undefeated Statesmen were finally stopped in a heart-breaking contest with the U. City Indians. The Redskins plunged through for seven points in the first quarter. Noonan snatched a thrilling pass by McKel- vey after it bounced off the safety man's shoulder, and minutes later Quigley scored off tackle. McKelvey ran the extra point and set the score at 13-7, but the Indians scored again in the fourth quarter to tie the knot at 14-13. A hard-fought battle was lost to Clayton when a Webster fumble was recovered on our own 25-yard line. The Greyhounds' snappy aerial offensive left the Websterites on the tail end of a 7-0 score. The Turkey Day game was played before an over-capacity crowd. Kirkwood's end, Charlie Meyers, scored both the touchdowns for the dayg one on a recovered fumble and another on a pass from Hebberger. Web- ster's hard-working forward wall went un- rewarded throughout a short second half, which killed the issue at 14-0. Ritzen. Con- rad, Paschen, Hinkley, Koester, and Bill Per- sons opened the way to the five-yard stripe more than once, but fumbles prevented scor- mg. The squad was co-captained by Bob Stahl- hut and Shel Paschen. Quigley and Stahlhut tied for leading scorer with 36 points each. The Statesmen amassed a total of 135 points for the season against 90 for their oppo- nents-averaging 13.5 points per game to their opponents' 9. Howard Hinkley distin- guished himself by making center position on the All-District eleven. Get the rule book. -101- Keefer, Peavey, Ross, Lee, Cook, Shields, Rose, Peterson.

K y The fountain pen of Coach Froble Gaines will have another number engraved on it this year signifying another undefeated season for his B football squad. The Gaines- coached B teams have lost only one game since 1937. The Maplewood squad was defeated by a score of 7-0. The Sophomore Statesmen then journeyed to St. Charles, where they built up their largest score of the season by defeat- ing the corn-fed lads 32-0. A rather wild time was had by all. Ritenour fell before the su- perior play of the Websterites in a 12-0 tilt. Clayton followed suit with a 13-0 score, and, not to be outdone, Normandy cashed in at 12-0. Kirkwood achieved the distinction of scoring the only official touchdown made against the boys, but they still lost 28-6. A 13-13 game with U. City was called because of darkness after the third quarter, making the game an unofficial one. Art Costello was elected captain by his teammates. The average points per game were 19.5 to 1. -102- Our grapplers, coached by Mr. Bryant, wrestled twelve meets and came in fifth in the state competition at Boonville. A 30-18 defeat by a strong Kirkwood team started the season. The grunt-and- groan boys trounced a weak Ferguson team, 32-3. Ritenour, the state champion team, defeated us 29-16. The strong Normandy Vikings followed up by beating us 37-17. Although Maplewood was strong in the lower weight classes, we defeated them 24-19. Our squad also defeated University City, 36-15. In the second round of wrestling, Kirk- wood eked out a two-point victory for a 25-23 win. We walked over Ferguson in a 26-18 victory, but Ritenour again beat us, 32-83 and our home match with Normandy was lost, 15-20. We triumphed over U. City again, making a 26-19 win. Our sixth win was the final match of the season in which we de- feated Maplewood 22-17. In the state meet Webster took four third- place titles: Weaver in the 127-pound class, Captain Joe Kaufman in the 154, Zakarian in the 165, and Schlatter in the 175.

This year's thin-clads, under the coaching of Mr. Yates, turned out to be an average team which sometimes showed great promise on the boards. In the opening game Webster overcame their first-half nervousness with C. B. C. and managed to lay up a 27-20 victory. The jour- ney to St. Charles ended in disappointment when the Pirates eked out a 35-34 victory over us. At the dedication of our new gym, Maplewood easily won by 46-31. A rather exciting evening accompanied our 50-41 vic- tory over the Clayton Greyhounds. Webster was again invited to the annual Normandy Tournament and started out well by defeating a well-knit Bayless squad 48-46 in a thriller that went into two overtimes. In the second round we did not fare as well, for Southwest overran our ball hawks to the tune of 50-41. Snapping into the new year, Webster gained a hard-fought victory over Brentwood and finally came off the hardwood on top with a 31-30 score. In the second game with Ma- plewood the Statesmen lost 44-36 to the Leafs, who later gained the Suburban League title. A home tilt with the Normandy Vi- kings brought us a 37-26 defeat. In the -104- Webster triumphs. hardest fought game of the year, which proved the ability of the Yatesmen, Beau- mont was held to a low score of 44-35. Although Webster suffered a defeat, we held the state champions to their second lowest score this season. Len Owen distinguished himself by scoring thirteen points in the first quarter, and Bob Hilliard's defensive play was outstanding. The loss of Tom Holling was felt in the first game of the new semester. Missing the skill and fast dribbling of this key man and hampered by Kirkwood's tiny gym, our Statesmen were outplayed by a good Kirk- wood team. The first Suburban League Tournament was held at Webster. We drew a tie for the first round of play, but were scalped by 38-30 in the second round by the U. City Indians. An afternoon tilt with Clayton brought us a 47-40 win. In our home game with Rite- nour we defeated a weak Huskie squad by 49-32. The journey to U. City brought us a 49-43 loss. In a ball game which reminded one of the pro contests we defeated Nor- mandy 65-54. Don Peat hit the bucket for twenty-five points. Many of these were made in long shots, and the set-ups were taken care of by his teammates. An outclassed Wellston squad was defeated 46-27 by the Statesmen. In the final battle of the season we lost to the Kirkwood Pioneers by 47-30. Out of the sixteen scheduled games we won eight and lost eight, making our average .500 for the season. We scored 761 points and our opponents scored 741 points. The squad was co-captained by Don Peat and Len Owen. Russ Bokenheide was high point man for the season with 146 points. He made the Suburban League All-Star team. Where is it? l -105- Kiefer, Straub, Semmelmeyer, Gale, Costello, Meffert, Coach Moss.

Out of fifteen games played they won eleven and lost four. The season was started well by C. B. C.'s defeat of 27-20. The next two wins were from St. Charles and Maplewood, 35-16 and 41-39. The Clayton Greyhounds handed us the first loss, 23-26. Brentwood was defeated 43-29, and we defeated Maplewood in a close game which gave us a 23-22 victory. The next game was lost to Normandy, 21-34. A Weak Beaumont team was swamped, 46-16, and the aggressive Kirkwood five were de- feated 39-29. The Soph Statesmen lost to Clayton for the second time, 35-44. Ritenour bowed to a score of 43-24, and U. City lost 43-28. The final loss of the season was to the well-rounded Normandy Vikings. The score was 29-32. In the two final close games Wellston was defeated 33-32, and Kirkwood 41-37. The boys totaled 522 points to 425 for their opponents. -106- The Forty-seven baseball squad, under Coach Gaines, turned out a record of seven- teen wins, two losses, and one tie in twenty games. The season started well with a 7-0 no- hit defeat of C. B. C. McKinley fell to the Statesmen 9-O, and Ritenour allowed us a 2-0 victory. C. B. C. made a comeback and scored the first runs against us, but our Statesmen beat them 7-4. An eighteen- inning struggle with Kirkwood resulted in a 1-1 tie. Clayton lost to us by a score of 0-4, as did McKinley by 2-3. The first defeat came from U. City, 1-2. Our big winning streak defeated Normandy 5-2, Maplewood 2-0, Wellston 7-1, St. Louis U. High 7-4, Rite- nour 9-5, Kirkwood 5-2, Clayton 2-1, and U. City 3-0 in a no-hit game. Our final loss was to Normandy, 1-2. We then beat Maplewood 7-0, Western Military Academy 5-4, and Wellston 7-1. Southwest was defeated 13-5 to secure the district championship. Bill McKelvey's pitch- ing was outstanding for the season. Sprick, Sick, Hirsch, Richards, Coach Gaines.

Hockey y QA is sufficiently different from other sports so that it arouses and keeps the interest of many girls. The girls practice faithfully, with the hope that they will be chosen for the class teams and finally for the varsity. Chargem!! Of the fourteen games that were played by the class teams, only four were defeats. The varsity team was able to play only two of its four scheduled games. The Mary Insti- tute and Maplewood games both resulted in scoreless ties. An innovation this year was the issuance to each class team member of a hockey stick with her name on itg thus, every girl had a stick of a length suited to her, and she had a greater sense of responsibility for keeping it in good condition. Fifteen girls attended a hockey session given at Washington University by the coach of the Scotch hockey team. They learned of the impo-rtance of hockey in Scotland and of the high standards which constitute a Scottish hockey game. - 108- The Basketball Sports Day that was held at Webster Groves this year was the high point of the basketball season. The sports day was sponsored by the St. Louis County Women's Physical Education Club. The pro- gram was presented by the Girls Athletics Association members, who acted 'as guides for visiting students and their instructors, and also served on a clean-up committee. The president of the G. A. A., Peggy Todd, con- ducted the entertainment, which consisted of humorous stunts in which several instruc- tors played major roles. As a whole, the day was highly successful. A competitive spirit prevailed, but the emphasis was on fun and friendliness rather than on competition. At the final game of the season, which was played with Maplewood, the parents of the girls were invited to attend the game. The special privilege of witnessing a girls' basketball game was appreciated by the par- ents, since the games are held in the after- noon and the parents seldom have the oppor- tunity to see their daughters participate in athletics.

Volleyball is a sport in which many types of people may participate with an equal de- gree of success. Not- requiring any special athletic prowess, except alertness, volleyball has many enthusiastic supporters who eager- ly await the volleyball season. This year, Miss Bailey, who began her teaching career at Webster in September, ably directed the volleyball program. The opponents of the volleyball varsity were Uni- versity City, Kirkwood, and Maplewood. Miss Daniel had charge of a phase of volleyball training which is not praised enough-that of training officials to referee the games. Officiating at a game requires a great deal of skill and knowledge of the rules. The girls who wish to ref must pass a written test and a practical test in which they must be approved by a national judge. Trim navy blue sweat shirts and sweat pants were obtained by the G. A. A. for var- sity team members, and along with the previ- ously adopted uniform of white shirts, navy blue shorts, white socks, and white gym shoes, added to the neat appearance of the Webster girls. -110- Softball was a well-equipped and well- organized sport this year. During the war years and immediately following the war much of the necessary equipment could not be obtained, but this year the girls were proud possessors of a rubber home plate, new gloves, and new catchers' masks. As in other sports, the class teams were chosen from those who engaged in after- school softball, and the varsity team was se- lected by a few girls who showed outstanding ability on class teams. Maplewood, Ritenour, Kirkwood, and Clay- ton were Webster's formidable opponents. Of those participating in softball, the Seniors were exceptionally good, for the present Sen- iors have maintained an active interest in this sport throughout their high school careers. Enough praise cannot be given to softball and the other sports, which aid in developing the co-ordination, active minds, and healthy bodies of the Webster girls. The instructors, who are interested in the welfare of the play- ers and not the high scores, deserve an un- limited amount of credit.

The 1947 track team was hampered by the lack of a home track and had to build a temporary one at Forty Acres, consequently there were no home meets. Maplewood and C. B. C. triumphed over our cindermen, but the dual meet at Kirk- wood ended in a tie. At the U. City invita- tional meet Don Blair clocked 10.1 for the hundred-taking first place. Blair pulled a leg muscle in practice and the injury was conducive to a poor showing in the District meet at Public Schools Stadium. In state competition at Columbia, John Vanselow took a fourth in the 220, and the relay team com- posed of King Graf, Don Blair, Gary Johan- boeke, and Nig Baureis, took two fifths. Outstanding lettermen were: John For- ney, mileg Bob Cooper, high jumpg Red Baureis, relayg Lee Wolff, mileg Jack Henry, high jump: and Ed De Boer, vault and shot. In the junior division Schramm and Lippen- cott, who ran the 880, were the main strength of the team. Bill Schultz and Oliver Bieder- man also added points. -112- jke CACIPL5 24. KOLPIJJ jI'0l9Ay The Charles A. Roberts Memorial Trophy is dedicated to a man who coached and taught the youth of Webster Groves High School from 1907 to 1946. The trophy was made possible by the 1921 lettermen and the 1947 Senior Student Council. The inscription on the trophy reads: For the Greatest Contribution to Good Sportsmanship and Team Morale 1947-1966 The trophy stands two feet four and one- half inches in height. The pedestal is a wood- en block six inches high on which is mounted, alternately, three columns and three angelic figurines. The columns support a bowl sur- mounted by a marathon runner standing on the globe of the earth. The runner holds a laurel wreath in his upraised hand. Accompanying this trophy is a plaque upon which the name of the outstanding sportsman each from 1947 to 1966 will be engraved. In 1947 this honor was bestowed upon James Tschannen, an all-around athlete. -113- W , 1 w I 1 Youths' education is not complete unless they are active in some phase of social life.

Vol.: Best Ever Date? Sure! Fridav Nite! Issue: No. 513 CELEBRITY VISITS WEBSTER High School Career of Alexander Davis When Alexander was Bohren, he lived in South Carroll-ina. At the age of five he was Able to go to school. One day he didn't come Holmes, 'n his mother went to look Ferguson. When she found him she asked him why he hadn't come home. He replied, I lost my nickel 'n couldn't af- Ford to take the bus. His mother gave a Gm-ne and scolded him. Alexander graduated from grammar school with High spirits. It wasn't Long before he fell in Love with the Miller' daughter, named Hannah, who had White skin and a Ruddy complexion. One day when Alexander and his girl were walking through the Woods they saw a Wolll' on a Hill. The Wollf jumped on Alexander, and Alexander killed the Wolll' with his Spear. They walked a. little farther and Met-a- calfe stranded on a Clif. Alexander res- cued the calf and took it to its mother. Honest to Peat. Hannah revlied. you have such a Goode Hart. As they con- tinued on their way, they met a Fischer man on the edge of the lake. Alexander said to the man. Don't you know it's again t the Law,Son. to fish here? The man was Kuhl-Man and did not argue with Alexander. When Alexander was sixteen, he under- went a very thrilling experience. He was taking his Daily walk through the Forester and on the Ridge-ley saw the Taylor's son, Russell Gnaegy. Russell was a good ex- Sample of a Schllless Person. I-Ie was De Yong-est of his family and strongest In- body. Russell was De-Honey boy that Alex- ander was afraid of and when he saw him, his Harris stood on end. Just as Russell Famous Band CELEBRITY VISITS SCHOOL On Tour Last week a celebrated band paid our school an unexpected visit. We are proud to announce that the Gra.f's German Band. his prodigies in the old Groetsch, Fritz Hedley. hann Speeler, Adolph Majesky, and Wolfgang cial number was Ach band's name was Hans Graf found country. They are Boekenheide. Jo- Quigleyg Heinrich Booth. Their spe- Du Lieber Augus- tine, with variations of a few of John Philip Sousa's arrangements. The uniforms for the band were quite original with mid- night blue and orange. One of the amaz- ing facts about the band is that they never hold practices except onehalf hour before their appearance. We are exceedingly grate- ful that Hans accepted our school's offer of a personal appearance, because they are being featured this week at the Classy- Chassis Club on Lockwood Boulevard. The German Band had its feeble beginning at our own school. Their debut was on the basketball court. We are indeed grateful for Mr. Graf's German Band and their pro- gram at school. and Alexander met, Spo-tts of rain came down and it got: Hailey. As they hated each other with a purple Paschen land Bowel. they began to iight. While they were fighting, Russell Prest-on Alexander's Bach-le. He had to surrender. From that day on, he rEly hated Russell and was never Able to forget their fight. The end was Qulg-ley. Alexander Bott a ladder and pushed Russell down from his own Ruf-i. Naturally this gave Russell a Payne. Russell in turn Brandt-ed Alexan- der and they both died. The moral is: That's Stehlin' him!!! - 127 - Recently, Miss Marchinsky Uplingsky. the well-known orator and stateswoman, paid a visit to Webster High School. The following is the text of her speech: With this in mind the dictionary awaits outside. Green is rather good. although music is often mutilated. but maybe maps never tell expecially paper ones. Eleven adams-apples ran races to Greenland. Windshields are helpful in-their way. but cream puffs serve the purpose better. Chickens are unfriendly. but eat cheese cake along the Nile. Chalk dust and mold turned the butter sour. Men are nutty about turtle tongues, but not as much as the turkey. Blue. blue indigestion elim- inates bobby socks. Liverpool, Indiana and Oshgosh all create atoms little by little. This is a sign that frost will play hop- skotch. Bats are always old and cranky. but Lord Jellynose never wept. Just be cause the moon is made of green cheese is no reason for you to think I'm nuts, be cause developments cause delinquents and kids in this school are cracking up. Don't let it get you down, Arabs would be the same. P. S. Note from the author: Miss Upling- sky has been returned to the institution.

The WEAKLY WASH could think of no better way to symbolize this sad event than by the obvious comparison of the graduating seniors to young birds just ready to fly the nest.

Club Notice The wearing of the black ribbons sym- bolizing the Moosie Fan Club was origi- nated by the senior girls of 1948. It has become so popular that girls' colleges all over the nation have adopted its consti- tution. ' Last week Moosie Owen himself ap- peared before the William Woods assembly accompanied by his well-known valet, Bill Grace Ellis. Both came in the usual Moosie attire. complete with levies. work shoes. and a bright plaid shirt. First Miss Patricia Hart. dean of women, gave a long. serious talk on high learning to the girls. Then Ditsy Nero came forward with the golden key to William Woods College. After this splendid presentation. Moosie and Grace drove away in their new. modern automobile without oven a wind- shield, and headed for the East Coast. where Mr. Owen will attend the famous baby contest in Boston. Among the bounc- ing babies were some children from our own fair city of Webster. Jack Majesky. Martin Schiff, and Budge Kohlbry were the lucky boys. -128- Dancing News Never let it be said that the Kaegel steps were not equal to those of Arthur Murray. In fact, all disagreements now have been dissolved into the MurKay Studios 1Mur- ray plus Kaegell. Every kind of dance routine is taught from the lovers' one-step to the minute boogie. Anyone can learn- even you! Within fifteen minutes you can be a new person. Instead of being a sitting wallflower. the standing type is taught. MurKay is offering a six months course in one month for the price of the one of six months. This is quite a saving for you thrifty-minded people! Among our suc- cessful students are Jack Eyler and his trusty partner. Rita Hayworth. Of course. you must not become too discouraged if you cannot dance right away. Remember. Rome wasn't. built in a day. Don't miss this amazing five-year offer! Act now! Club Notice Flash! A new club has just been formed at Webster. The name of the club is The Fix 'Em Dates Club . This was formed by a group of girls to eliminate in an easy way a few of the women-haters around school. The prize problem of the month was Dave Richards. The girls are still fighting among themselves to see who can settle Dave's problem. We wonder who will win out. Just between you and me. I think Dave will. Last month's problem moved away. He was Howard Hinkley. We can't under- stand why he moved away so fast. Must have heard of the club and gotten cold feet. Meanwhile, all the loyal members are still looking faithfully around. and hoping some male will finally be hooked and thus eliminate one more woman-hater. Styles of 1986 The proper attire for these fortunate individuals attending our institution for higher learning will be pleased to note the following fashion changes this year. In- stead of wearing those old, mangy. worn- out white bobby socks. just ask your fella to knit you a lovely pastel pair of argyles during any class at all. Skirts are just about the same-same means dragging the dirt along the floor with you as you trip by-but never fear girls, because your bustle will soften your fall. We have a beauty tip for you boys, too. Instead of bleaching your locks. dye them any color from bilious green to dirty Bray. Your stocking caps might hide this, but you can cut a hole the desired size in the front. Knickers will be in style this spring. and black patent-leather slippers will he worn with them.

Page 4 THE WEAKLY WASH June May Queen The Queen of the May this year was MISS DONNA SQUIGGLY who was crowned by petite Miss Edwardia Ries, president of B. A. A. QBetter Ath- letes' Association--commonly called the Black Sheepl. Miss Squiggly was attended by live lovely maids and one honorary maid-all of whom were also eligible for queen. Her attendants were: Sheila Pasch- en. Roberta Person, Joan Ritzen, Rose Boekenheide, and Theodora Baker. The honorary maid was Princess Graf, who recently arrived from Lower Slobbovia. On receiving the award, Miss Squiggly was radiant in her off-the-shoulder formal. Said she: I just was so surprised! You know, I just never suspected that I would be May Queen! Why, it was just my life's dream!

Mr. Stuart 1Socksl Davis, the fire chief. will be at the meeting in person to thank the Guild for their hard work. ST. LOUIS.-The younger set seems t0 be having a great deal of difficulty these days getting enough peroxide to bleach their hair. It seems that the drain on the supply occurred back in 1948 when some Webster High School boys started the now universal fad. Mr. William Persons, Presi- dent of the National Peroxide Association, made the statement today that Rae ire- ferring to the vice-president, Mr. Rae Per- sonsl and I will do all we can to help the youngsters. We know how it is to be with- out peroxide. NOTRE DAME.-The Notre Dame eleven have finally succeeded in securing the famous coach Bob QMossJ Stahlhut to coach their team this year. Mr. Stahlhut as yet has no statement for the press. but we feel that he will begin and end the season suc- cessfully. He ought to, with that team he has: Tschannen. center: Milford, left guard: Emil Smultz, tackle. His contemporary of the basketball team, Coach Art Fedder, also has a pretty good team: John Noonan, Don Koester, John Ritzen, to name a few. WASHINGTON, D.

The Echo Paper Finally Called News- paper After Year of Debate and Research. -130- w i In the Orange Glow In the Orange Glow this week we have Geedamoe Glockenspeedle or, as his class- mates know him, Trinidad . He has been voted the most likely to become editor of the Echo Paper. He has white hair, pur- ple eyes. is one foot tall, four feet wide. and wears no shoes. He prefers girls that are nice and ugly. He readily admits that there are none of these critters around our fair building. He belongs to many organizations, includ- ing the Croquet Boys, the Barreling Hon- orary Society, the Danger Council, Teach- ers' Guides, and is a member of the All- District Do Nothings. Trinidad likes turnip greens, raw rhu- barb. and adores pig's feet whether they be fried, mashed, stewcd, or just thrown into the frying pan. On weekends he en- joys sitting at home and doing nothing. This develops the mind , says Trinidad. and also drives your mother insane. Next year Geedamoe plans to attend the local barber college to further his educa- tion. His attitude on girls is this: 'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all.
