Yet, if asked to consider for a moment, we could speak with pride and admiration of their B.S.'s, M.A.,s, or Ph.D.'s, of their outstanding teaching abilities. There is, however, something more unique that these people freely give to us in or outside of the classroom, we can rely on extra coaching with an especially tough assignment or just stop for a friendly chat' and we can always look to our faculty for examples of fairness and dependability This above and beyond attitude is one which characterizes University Hugh s faculty and its effects can never be Ignored or forgotten mAlIhEmA1IlES BUSINESS Clarence W Hackney Ernest Weber FUYe 5 Chance BA Western Michigan BA Western Michigan BS M S Bull Sfdfe TGCICHGFS University MA Michigan University MA Teachers College College Columbia SCIENCE Ray C Deur Carl J Engels Philip L Reuschlenn Biology Physics and Chemistry Physical Science and BS WeSTe'n M'Cl '9an BS Wisconsin State Physical Education UHIVCVSWY MA M'cl '9an Teachers MA Michigan BS Wisconsin State MS Wisconsin 9 I ,, ,, . . . . . . . , . . , . . ., . ., - -1 - -1 K I . ., 1 . ., 1 can ,A . ., J. ,mga e -.gi 1 . 1 . , . , . ., .

DAVID SHELDON D The class of 1959 both gained and lost a mem- ber for its last year of school. Two superior and am- bitious students chose to forego their last year of high school to enter college. David Sheldon became a Kalamazoo College freshman in the fall of 1958. Richard Strube plans to enter college in 'l959. At Kalamazoo College, David is maioring in sci- ence. The reason for this choice is evident, even in grade school Dave was tinkering with radios and reconstructing old machines. In junior high and high school he began to make new things, including a special applause meter for school assemblies and a color control device for theater spotlights. David plans to be a nuclear physicist. ln his last year at University High, Richard Strube combined three college classes with three high school classes, two of them senior, to be taking an unprece- dented six solids as a course of study. This is typical of Richard. He has the above and beyond attitude that makes him more than a student, he is a scholar in the true sense of the word. RICHARD STRUBE AlG0lCII0l2IAf1 It takes a real individualist to be one who is not overwhelmed by the importance of materialism in our culture. -Richard Nielsen SAUIIAIGRIAI1 If the fantastic progress of this age is to continue, our society must produce outstanding people to invent the new and revise the old.

Who could forget the after-game pizza feasts, the discordant yells on buses, the day of a test when a mysterious virus developed, or chuckling over a private ioke and then reporting to the office for that unfair monitor report? Of course, we did not shirk our primary duties as scholars. With five National Merit Scholarship semi-finalists and many others rating high, we began pouring over college catalogues and applications. As deadlines drew closer, the real significance of our senior year became clear. Now was the time to make decisions that would effect the rest of our lives, we dutifully became aware that as so-called young adults trying to assert our independence we were still very much dependent on our parents for many things. Such thoughts were forgotten as couples danced and small-talked at the Christmas Formal. The Prom was a gay repeat performance with no worries about decorations or punch this time. At last, Senior Skip Day provided all the frustrated hooky players with a legitimate excuse for enioying a typical spring-summer day. Despite attempts at worldliness and being glad it four high school yearsl was almost over, few could keep from wondering momentarily what was going on back at old U High. We soon would separate and eventually forget the buddies and almost friends, the fights with both and often with your own self, that first kiss, a last see ya around. Graduation materialized fwhat will my roommate look likei with enthusiastically conceived plans for a Senior Trip fhow will l stay awake all night?i amid frantic plans for a class reunion in T969 fwill we be able to find baby sitters?l. We began to feel like a Janus, reliving our time in high school while anticipating the enticingly unforseeable future. Our goodbyes and good lucks are the cliches which say that each of us has special memories and an Auld Lang Syne nostalgia for the things which can never happen again be as they were, and that these high school days will always hold a special place in our lives. 40 Llf1CGI2ClASSlT1 H More restricted are the pawns When moving on their checkered lawns And yet, important to the game.

Individual honors went to John Todd, Terry Duncan, Tom VanderMolen, Joe Sugg, and Tom Brown who made the Gazette All-City team. On the state level Joe Sugg was selected to the WOOD T.V. All-Stars, the Michigan State Consensus All-State, and various honorable mention all-state teams, and Tom Brown made the All-South Western Michigan and several all-state teams. Next year's team will be led by Captain Jim Birch and a nucleus of returning lettermen including Terry Duncan, Tom Vandermolen, Dave Stafford, Denny Ketcham, and Dick Colby. T.

Perhaps the unique qualities of this year's choir, which is under the direction of Mr. Jack Frey, were due to the new blood which it gained in the fall, perhaps due to the many veterans, accustomed to the old ways and anxious to try the new. Whatever the cause, the result was a choir that knew few limits and was interested in trying anything which hadn't been done before. The first hint that the choir would not accept a usual year was their observation early in the autumn that the choir room had served many years in the presence ot high school people and that the chairs and paint looked extremely battle-worn. Ideas for redecoration began to appear and much discussion and many after-school hours resulted in new point, new chairs and a mural by Jean Buvelke. The group took a great interest in planning its own programs, including the gay Gypsy Baron, lyrics by George and music by Straus, participation in the Mid-Western Michigan Spring Concert, and a modern concert by the choir alone. Among the innovations of this choir were two exciting excursions to Chicago to see My Fair Lady and The Music Man , giving lessons in music appreciation, and chances to break the regular routine. This year's officers were Lee Mimms, president, Susan Tiefenthal, vice-president-secretary. 100 fl 'E f jg' nf its X - X CRAITTATZICS CLUB Front: L. Forsleff, S. Tiefenthal, D. Boudeman, M.

The club met after school every Thursday and studied various techniques of the theater such as acting, application of make-up, and stagecraft. Miss Bernyce Cleveland is the advisor of the Dramatics Club and director of the play. She was assisted this year by three WMU students, Miss Patti Riley, Mr. Eugene Wank, and Miss Carol Drennen.

The club had more members than previously and, most important, thirty-five of these members enjoyed an overnight trip to Detroit. They stayed at Greenfield Village and saw the Henry Ford Museum. They also visited a nuclear reactor. Under supervision of Mr. Clarence Hackney and Mr. Ernest Weber, the club officers, who were: Dick Nielsen, president, Kip Wheeler, vice-president, Lynn Larzelere, secretary, and Dick Doyle, treasurer, organized interesting meetings about probabilities, falacies, and computing machines. Members also gave reports about famous men in the field of mathematics. Next year should be highlighted with more firsts . CIGUCG Cl.UB F 0nf1 J- VUf def5fO0lK, K.

The Wednesday evening meetings were devoted to demonstrations by guest speakers and by class members. Science club members were also encour- aged to create special projects. Charlotte Calhoun used an acid to activate a plant's growth. Joe Sugg's project was a Kelvin electrostatic generator while Fred Kolloft made o range finder and Richard Strube constructed a polarimeter. Peter Landt made 'Q a radio transistor and Peter Homes, a radio- '11- sontrolled boat. 10006 -7- Science club president, Brian Wruble dictates a message to the secretary-treasurer, Herschal Hill. 105 U CLUB Front G Roon D Ketcham D Hamulton P Landt T Brown J Sugg R Jackson T Duncan D Hackney D Colby D Herman Mlddle B Hodgman G Shoudy R Hackman R Tracy J Burch W Whltbeck J Edwards D Stafford L Groggel T Moyer B DeCreek T Wlerman Back W Johnson T Fleckenstem W Kent J Wnlkms T Lendermk B Doerschler A Dowd J Todd T DeVrnes J Qunrlng T VanderMolen R Gull G Brown J Carlson E Lode A Gaylord D Zomer G Lode M Schruer ily The Umversuty Hugh U Club sponsored by Mr Roy Walters has been a mamstay nn promotmg good sportsmanshlp honorrng skulled athletes and encouragnng athletic achievements The club also worked conscientiously to Introduce all new students to the faculrtles and mayor program ofthe athletlc department Usually thus as accomplished through the U Clubs annual fun nnghts that feature basketball tumblung wrestlmg badminton and swnmmmg These nights also serve to help acquaint present U Hlghers wnth the new students Thus year s club was expertly gunded by Joe Sugg President Thomas Brown Vlce Presndent and Richard Jackson Secretary Treasurer 'I06 : . , . , . , . , . , . , . , . . , . , . . : . , . , . , . . , . , . , . , . , . , . , . : . , . , . , . , . , . , . , , . , . , . , . , . , . , . , . . , . , . . 5: A M ,L V. ffiyjll f J 'i 4 Q ' Us -1 , M 2 4.145 f f , I !

The year 1959 saw the creation of an honor society at University High. Five Na- tional Merit semi-finalists, appointed by Dr. Roy Bryan as a committee to investigate the possibility of an honor society, were largely responsible for its organization. The goal of the society is the promotion of scholastic excellence by bringing this principle to the attention of the school and keeping it there. Members were seniors with a 6.5 average and juniors with a 7-point average. Although not organized until the middle of the spring, 1959, the Honor Society, led by Miss Beth Giedeman, revamped and pro- duced the Honors Day program of scholastic recognition.
