Its colors are a challenge to the students of Chris- man tolattain higher ideals through 'personal initiative and individual freedom: to follow unwaveringly the pure and lofty standards' that have been set for us by genera- tions of patriotic Americans: and to pledge our unfailing loyalty to our country and to our school. 0 Now, more than ever before, we young Americans have come to the crossroads of our lives. Down either road stretches uncertainty and change from our way of life and familiar things as we have known them. The world is in a constant state of upheaval and change: and we, too, find lit necessary to change our opinions and way of thinking in order tolconform to a new life. This thresh- old upon which we are standing need not alarm us or cause us to lose our faith in mankind. We can do our share in bringing normalcy once again by clinging stead- fastly to those ideals upon which our lives have been built, by maintaining and keeping alive courage to face whatever the years may bring, and by being true 'to the principles upon which our school is founded.. Youth faces a problem: but this problem can be met and overcome by faith, courage, and hope. We must pursue the seem- ingly elusive rays of the beacon of loyalty, pass the mes- sage of patriotism along, and above all, follow the GLEAM. 0 A ' '4 MID DUNTINENT PUBLIC LIBRARX UEHIIIHTIIIII To Sergeant H. C. Dean A The life of the dead consists of being present in the minds of the living. This is a fitting memorial to Sergeant Dean for he lives in the memory oi his many friends. His accom- A plishments are an ever present reminder of the activi- ties in which he participated. His life, though not long, was full of unselfish deeds. 5 ,-- .5 3 77. .

PENDLETON - Vice President is , MISS KATIE Cl-IASTAIN - Secretary-Treasurer If ,L,A The Board of Education is 'alwaysenthusiastic and active at its regular monthly meetings. There is not a more spirited group of individuals in our com- munity than the ones who guide 'and control the man- agement of our school. Among .the many difficult problems which come before the board are: selecting the teachers, .deciding the holidays, handling all financial matters, and arranging the curriculum of our school. Their efficiency is shown by the way they handle these problems and guide our school safely on its course. The Board of Education' is similar to a demo- cratic form of. government. The superintendent of school, Mr. W. E. Matthews is the executive officer of the board: the six members are the directorsg the teachers are the officersy and the citizens of Inde- pendence are the stockholders. ' u 4 Mr. Iohn W. Luft , The meetings are held under the leadership of Mr. John W. 'Luf'f, who continues meeting his respone sibilities as the president of the association. His term expires in April, 1946. He is assisted in his work by Mr. Fleming Pendleton, the vice president of the board, Whose term expires in April, 1944. Miss Katie Chastain, the capable secretary of the board, continues in her work this year. The other members of the board are: 'Mrs. Adron Randall, Mrs. Howard Hinde, Dr. Floyd Yale, end Mr. Iohn A. Becker. With the guidance of these efficient citizens of our community, our school will go on to a more prof gressive future than we have ever known before. The Board of Education in Session A Mr. W. E. Matthews, Superintendent One of the most influential and helpful factors in the lite of Chrisman students is our Superintendent of Schools, Mr. W. E. Mat- thews. It was indeed a fortunate occurrence for the Independence School System when the board of education was able to secure Mr. Matthews's services. His knowledge of new methods, and his close connection with the Missouri State Department of Education have made him ideally suited for this posi- tion. His interest in student activities, his un- derstanding of YOUll'1'S problems, and his Willingness to help all who need his sound advice, have endeared him to pupils cmd teachers alike. He inspires admiration. in Q11 those who have come in contact with his winning personality, keen intellect, and firm character. SUPERINTEIJENT Especially invaluable is his wholesome advice to the boys who are preparing to en- ter the services as well as those who are al- ready serving and those at home who are bewildered by the rapid current of the World events. He urges all students to make the most of their opportunities as presented in the school curriculum and to prepare them- selves to face their problems in society through adequate use of their time and ma- terials. Mr. Matthews realizes the vast im- portance of using one's time to the best ad- vantage. He feels that nothing can be so imf portant to young people as a good education and that we shall realize this more and more in the difficult period of reconstruction follow- ing the war. He has shown us by his own lite that not until we can master ourselves can we hope to become successful members of society. Mr. Matthews attended Maryville Col- lege, Warrensburg State Teachers' College, and the University of Missouri. He holds a Master's degree. Mrs. Mildred Kearnes, Mr. Matthews' assistant, is well trained for her position. She has a B. S. degree in Education from the State Teachers' Normal in Pittsburg, Kansas, with special secretarial training. She is ca- pable and friendly to all and a suitable sec- retary for such a remarkable superintendent. Mr. Matthews Mrs. Kearnes Mr. I. N I-Lanthorn Assistant Superintendent Mr. I. N. Hanthorn is very capable of handling his work as assistant Superin- tendent of Schools. He has many and varied duties to perform in this offi' e not only for our school system but for the en tire community as well One of his duties is to keep permanent records of every child from the age of a few months to twenty years who lives in the lndepend ence district This record lncludes name of child date of birth and age at the t1me of enumeration Mr Hanthorn performs this task efficiently and accurately He was in charge of the N Y A work tnow discontmuedl for this d1str1ct When Mr Matthews is absent Mr Hanthorn per forms faithfully the duties of the superin tendent Another important duty is the granting of work permits for anyone un der twenty years of age who works after school or on Saturdays Many of these people need birth cert1f1 ates so the office of assistant superintendent looks up the birth date of the person s school card and Il II ll ASSISTANT SUPERINTENIJENT 'A' ak ' makes a certification of birth. Mr. Han- thorn also has helped with the issuing of ration books. He has compiled a report on the lndependeence School System which includes its finances, teachers, schools, and the number of pupils in each school, in addition to other useful infor- mation. - While he was principal, many new courses were added, student government was instituted, and he sponsored the stu- dent handbook. Mr. Hanthorn has had a very broad education. He has studied at the State Teachers' College at Warrensburg and at the University of Missouri, and he re- ceived his Master's Degree from Colum- bia University in New York City. He ,is a very versatile man. Because of this he is able to teach in almost every classroom. He takes a keen interest in our school activities. When we have our installation of officers he always seems willing to come and talk to us We are always glad to have him come back for a V1S1l because he has so many worth while ideas and suggestions that can help us greatly At his desk 1 ,.. .

One can readily see that Mr. Gum is well qualified for the position of principal by briefly reviewing the instruction and experience he has received in this field. After receiving a B. S. degree at Cape Girardeau Teachers' College, he was an instructor in education at that institution for two summers. His Master's degree was conferred upon him at the University of Missouri. In addition to these degrees he did graduate work at the University of Missouri and at the Teachers' College of Columbia University of New York. The first position Mr. Gum held was in a rural school in Southeastern Missouri. Prom there he went to Gideon, Missouri, to teach. Then he held the position of principal in Clarkton, Missouri, and prior to his arrival here, he was principal of the high school in Nevada, Missouri. William Chrisman has noted many im- provements since Mr. Gum came here three years ago. By his modern and effi- cient methods he has been of much as- sistance to the school. Through his lead- ership he has brought the faculty and stu- dents to Work in harmonious accord with the high ideals of Chrisman. This year Mr. Gum, who is a member of the Missouri state committee of the North Central Association, attended the forty-ninth annual meeting of the Associa- tion at Chicago from March 20 through Mr. Gum's Office Mrs. Buchanan and Mrs. DeShazo, Secretaries Mr. Carl D. Guin, Principal March 24. He also attended the annual meeting last year. 4 This Association, of which Chrisman is a member, consists of more than three hundred colleges and more than three thousand high schools from twenty North Central States. Anyone in need of advice is sure to ob- tain it for the asking from Mr. Gum. He is always willing to do what he can for stu- dents-of Chrisman. In the many tasks which must be per- formed daily in the office, Mr. Gum is ably assisted by Mrs. DeShazo and Mrs. Buchanan. Through their efficiency the office is kept on a smooth, even course. , Miss Ianie Chiles Miss Margaret Chiles Mathematics Clothing Miss Elizabeth Aiken is one of our rela- tively new teachers.

SENIORS SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Four years Sago, our senior class very proudly began their first year of high school at Iunior High. Since we were al- ready well acquainted With the school, We made good progress, and most of our class left their freshman year with a good record. The next year was really the beginning of our high school days, when We very timidly started our, sophomore year here at Chrisman. We found the juniors and seniors very friendly, and we soon be- came quite at home. Many of us Were asked into clubs and societies, and found it an honortto be a member of the Student Council. W we made a great deal of progress dur- ing our junior year. We were allowed to have a class play Ever Since Eve which proved to be very successful, and a great deal of talent was discovered in the cast. We also found that several of our class- mates were talented in speech and de- bate. By this time many of our boys had gone to the front in sports, and were starr- ing in both basketball and football. Our lost year here at Chrisman has been even more enjoyable than the past. With the realization that our days of high school would soon come to an end, We have- done our utmost to make the best of every day. Perhaps our biggest success of the year was our senior play You Can't Take It With You. lt was so highly applauded that it was necessary to run it an extra night ta take care of the large crowds. We have maintained our good debators and actors, and have had a number of students who are very talented in art. Our senior class was very Well repre- sented at the art contest held at Emery Bird Thayer's in Kansas City. ' Now the time has come When our high school days are over, and We leave the doors of Chrisman to face the many probe- lems of the World. tirukirir Seniors Entering ' , Chrisman ' - - -I . .. ......... - .,., ,. ,i,,, , ,,,,, ,N-m,MW-Ah xsgw W . f In nlz- V ,A--mm-kwwm-mnhh-WmMWW ' I Clzrence Weatherford f IUNIUR UFFIGERS ff junior class officers for the first semester of the year l944 were Bob Cramer, presi- dent: Clarence Weatherford, vice presi- dent: and Ruth Cavanah, secretary. The second semester officers were president, Clarence Weatherford: vice president, Dick Green: and secretary, Kathleen Norris. These people have participated in many student affairs. Bob Cramer played quarterback on the football team and was in the junior play, Best Foot Forward. Clarence Weatherford also played on the football team as halfback: and he is in the National Athletic Scholarship Society. Dick Green played football on the second team and was in the junior play. Ruth Cavanah is a member of the As-You- Like-lt Dramatic Club and was class sec- retary first semester of her sophomore year. Kathleen Norris is also ini the As- You-Like-It Dramatic Club and was class secretary the second semester last year. The success of the Iunior-Senior Pte- ception is due much to the management of this year's junior officers. They have done a good job in conducting the junior class meeting' and helping the student body as a whole by attending the Student Council meetings. Another of the duties oi these officers is to choose the class rings. Bob Cramer 1 . Ruth Cavanah ' Kathleen Norris 4 luniors Enjoying Life atririr ,g --A-' 111: 1-We - 1 Y , . ,.

Beginning in their sophomore year Richard Neas, Clarence Weatherford, Helen Thomas, and Ralph Phillips made the National Art Honor Society. Another. outstanding junior is Pat Gabriel, Who won the American Legion medal presented by the Tirey I. Ford Post for the best oration in this locality. She also placed first at Kansas City and second at St. Ioseph. This is ex- ceptionally good for a junior. Paul Nagel was a member of the de- bate'team that won first place at Shaw- nee Mission, and was the only junior on the team that placed second in the tournament that Was broadcast over the radio from Topeka. Pat Gabriel and Don Hanley debated with the team that won at Wyandotte. Don Hanley and Paul Nagel represented Chrisman in the State tournament at Sedalia. The juniors also have been prom- inent in athletics. This season ,Law- rence Fields, Vernon Crump, Paul Ru- ley, Bob Hughes, Bob Cramer, Clarence Weatherford, and Fred Thompson won football letters. Lawrence Fields, Har- old Savage, and Vernon Crump won basket ball letters. Lawrence Fields and Harold Savage Won track letters last year. ' With such outstanding leaders, the junior class is destined to go far. ' SUPHUMURE UFFICERS f Sophomore Chrismanites did Well in selecting their class officers. Stuart Tis- dale was voted class president for first se- mester and again second semester. Stu has been most outstanding in the field of sports. In his first year at Chrisman he made the first team reserve in football, the second team in basket ball, and Went out for track. , Donald Coldsnow was vice president first semester. He is a Well-liked student and he helped Stuart with his duties as class officer. Secretary first semester Was Virginia Gard. This year she has beeen a student council representative, an As-You-Like-It Dramatic Club member, and she had a leading part in the sophomore play. Second semester vice president was Milton Hughes, who was an outstanding sophomore: he took an active part in for- ensic Work this year. Ruth Stovall was second semester sec- retary. She is a very active student as she is a member of the Spanish Club, Art Club, Pep Club, and Nautilus Literary So- ciety. Also, she was a student council member and had a part in the sophomore play. The 'sophomores were fortunate in hav- ing such fine officers as it is important for the first year in Chrisman to be a success- ful one.

It is the recognition by the faculty of those students who most nearly live up to the standards ot theI Society. The members are judged upon tour points. The student must have a fine character that is above reproach. He must rank in the upper one-third of his class scholastically, prove himself to be a good leader, and last, tc have served his school in all ways possible. Miss Mabel Potter organized the Indepen- dence Chapter, which is number 226, ot the National Honor Society in l924. lt has been a continuous, organization since that time. Miss Potter has served as sponsor since its beginning at Chrisman and has performed this service Ifaithfully and Well. Each year a small group of juniors is se- lected to carry on the work of the organiza- tion the following year. Those chosen while yetiuniors were: Mona Allen, Patricia Allen, Lucy lane Compton, Lyman Edwards, Le- nora Ellis, George Gregg, Bill Hartigan, Rob- ert Holman, Bert Landfried, Charles Mat- thews, Frank Pallo, Ellis Pickett, Myron Thomason, and Biloine Whiting. . 3 l l l i National Art Honor Society l-IRST ROW P Allen I Alton Bueneman ase lark l mence Dorrxs Egner SECOND ROW Esslg Foote Green Hall Hendrlckson Landfrled Lundqulst Pryor lr-HRD ROW Rxggms Rotermund Sherrdan Waterman DeLapp Frxena Harbaugh Hudl r FOURTH ROW Land Morfozd Neas Page Shlppy Swlhart Thompson Vzeth FIFTH ROW Weston Wllhams Willoughby Bell Bruce Carpenter Flfleld Gragg STXTH ROW l-lattey lnouye M Iones Robmson Stovall The Natlonal Art Honor Soclety 1S an orgamzatxou based on crppreclatxon of beauty knowledge of art and sklll ln producxng art The Wllllam Chrlsrnan chapter was organized April l5 l937 and for elght years has been the goal of each mdustrtous art tudent Membershrp m the Natronal Arr Honor Soclety IS not wholly a matter of productxve skxll ln addltlon to the required ten pxeces of exhlblted work scholastrc quahflcatrons and charact r are carefully cons1dered An S average 1n art must be mamtalned as well as an M average IH all other sublects On Aprll 16 the annual xh1b1t1on of work was held From the dlsplayed work of hfty four students Judges made the selectxon of the forty f1Ve who placed thxs year Ten of thls number recerved membershtp last year Th1s year Clara Wayne Hendrlckson won the Sturges Art Medal Bxlhe lean Rotermund second place Patrzcla Allen thlrd place and Gene Foote and Richard Neas honorable mentlon Wrlham Chnsman also entered the National Scho lashc Contest held at Emery Blrd Thayer and won awards The ofitcers of the soclety are Prestdent Mary Green V1cePres1dent B1ll1e Rotermund Secretary Margaret Rrggms and Reporter Clara Wayne I-len drlckson The sponsors are MISS Nell E Sampson and Mlss Emma C Hlll . . , v T I A '- , , I, , T l , , , i , . i , L , V , I fl s l l A .

Although a comparatively new organization at Chrisman, the Thespian Dramatic Honor Society has accomplished much by creating in the students an in- terest in the fine art of Dramatics and providing them with a means of expressing this interest in the various fields of the theatre. Chrisman was granted its charter for the establish- ment ot' its chapter on February ll, l943. The society was founded in the .spring oi 1929 at Fairmount State Teachers College, Fairmount, West Virginia. Today there are over five hundred chapters throughout the United States. Any William Chrisman student, alter meeting the specified requirements, may become a member. Be- sides maior and minor roles in plays, efficient staff work, such as student director, stage manager, and electrician is credited toward membership. Upon payment oi the dues, full membership is awarded as well as a sub- scription to the monthly Thespian magazine. The Thespians sponsored the speech play, Seven Keys to Baldpate, presented in the fall. They had also planned to present six one-act plays for the One Act Play Contest in April. The officers are: President, Bill Hartigang vice president, Paul Nagel: secretary, Mona Allen: treasurer, Lucy lane Compton. Mrs. Mary Foster Williams and Miss Nanabel Cassell are the local sponsors. 1..1u.. iiffms .31-, NATIIINAL ATHLETIC SGHULARSHIP SUCIETY 1 In 1927, Coach Harry Lee organized chapter 1234 ofthe National Athletic Scholarship So- ciety in William Chrisman High School.

Many of the awards which fill this large case were won by our football teams. These teams have won the Big Six Conferences, the Missouri Valley Meets. and many other tournaments. Our basket ball teams have been equally skillful, having won several trophy cups. We must not forget our track champions who have also presented us with several fine trophies. There are other groups to remember and those are the debate teams, r 55 t V Trophies . Won in Debate Speech .

Among the different views of the classroom we find chorus, which is one of the most well-liked subjects taught in Chris- man. Many girls make a close study of clothing and foods, which is interesting and , also helps the high school girl to find her place in the world. Under the guidance of Miss Sampson, the advanced art students X learn to perfect their work and gain deeper knowledge in the study of art. 'We,also see views of radio code and world problems, which is a study of the problems which the student faces today. Among the foreign lan- guages, Chrisman offers Latin and Spanish. These subjects help us j to understand our own language better and to understand for- eign people more fully. Views have also been taken of aeronautics, plane geometry, siudy hall, junior English, and hygiene.

All lo ,y otographers refused. to take pictures on account of the shortage of films and other photographic supplies. Most unexpectedly Iohn Taylor's, lean Sardou Studio, offered to take all senior pic- tures, and the School Photo Service of Kan- sas City made an attractive offer for the junior and sophomore pictures. The big rush then began, because the lay- out for the Annual must be planned, the theme, color scheme, and other factors de: cided upon, as well as two copies ofthe dummy made. Four third year art students who did not work after school were selected as Art Edi- tors. 'Billie lean Rotefmund was assigned the first fourth of the book, the opening pages and administrative section, Patricia Allen was responsible for the second fourth, including all classes and the Honor Socie- tiesp Mary Green had the third fourth, cover- : rt Staff vgas not organized until late -YEYI I ing the departments, the military and athletic sections: Clara Wayne Hendrickson had the last fourth, which included all clubs, plays, music, debate, and socal activities of Chrisman. - These editors were ably assisted by Mar- garet Ann Higgins and Mary Io Clark in ar- ranging and pasting class panels, later in assembling all pages for the final two copies of the dummy. Gene Foote drew all of the little cartoons, or zinc etchings, for the book, and many other art students cheerfully as- sisted whenever needed for the various and numerous tasks involved. - Due to the late start, long hours of work after school were necessary to complete the usual amount of work by December fifteenth so as to secure the thirty per cent discount on engraving. ' However, the art staff has willingly served this year, battling new and diffcult problems, to make possible THE GLEAM for l944. The Start appreciates the able and untiring as- sistance of their sponsor, Miss Sampson. , THE LITERARY STAFF , t -1 The Literary staff of The Gleam is come oss. group is then chosen and published. posed Of- CI Selected QIOUD of students who I ndeed a thrill for the winner to see his having maintained an S or above in Ena- inal work furnish the introduction for his lish and proved their writing ability, have book. l h ' ' h VO umeered T eu Servlces or uve been Qs ,Th , - erary staff has a rather difficult task asked to help in the publication of the school annual. To them falls the all important task of writing the copy for The Glecxm. The work of the art staff is to design and lay out the ground work for the book. When this is completed, the- work of the literary staff begins. First, the space on the dummy must be measured exactly and the correct number of words to be allotted to each arti- cle carefully estimated so that the copy will fit the space assigned to it. The articles and topics are then divided among the staff so that each member has several articles to write. Each member of the staff also sub- mits as his first assignment a dedication and a foreword to be written on the theme of that year's Gleam. The best representative from to prepare the various articles and sections of the book in time to have the typing staff type and send it to the printer by the de- cided date so that it can be ready for the eagerly awaiting students as soon as pos- sible. It is a difficult task, but one made easier under the skillful direction and quid- ance of Miss Hill, the sponsor. Working un- tiringly she checks and proof-reads all copy as well as directs the work of the staff. ' The literary staff together with their spon- sor and their literary editor, Mona Allen, and assistant editor, Carolyn Scott, have en- deavored to present a picture of this school year in an interesting manner through this year's Gleam.

The business managers are: Lucy lane Compton, Ellis Pickett, and Myron Thomason. Other members of the staff are: George Gregg, lack Nielsen, Roberta Denham, Lyman Ed- wards, Naomi Forster, and Iohn Overrnan. These people, a necessary group assisting in publishing THE GLEAM, are assigned various business and professional houses in and near Independence to solicit and sell advertising. They handle THE GLEAM money and keep strict accounts under the supervision of Miss Ianie Chiles. . Nw KN E.. ' - . . It I TYPING STAFF OF THE GLEAMk This year's typing staff is composed of six faithful students: Iune Gray, Lenora El- lis, Rose Marie Iumet, luanita Winfrey, Max- ine Gould, and Laura Bateman. These students were chosen on the basis of their ability to type rapidly, accurately, and on their thoroughness of checking, and ability to spell correctly. In addition to the above qualifications, these students were willing to give and could afford to give the extra time this Work demanded. They would type in the morning, at noon, after school, and even during their study hall periods. Thesestudents are outstanding in extra-cur- ricular activities besides ranking high in scholarship. Under.the able direction of Miss Fallon, this staff made an excellent contribution to the activities of the school.

This year's Envoy staff have published fourteen issues. They are delivered to the studentscn the average of once every two Weeks.

Tenth place was also won in the Hearst Matches, thus enabling the team to go on to the finals. at which time the status ot Chrisman was decided. For two years Chrisrnan R. O. T. C. has been an Honor School, but the report for l943-44 will not be known until August. Field night also was held to decide thebest com- pany, platoon, and squad. 3 DT -1 an lam The Flag Raising SPONSOR COLONEL Each year it is customary for the R. O. T. C. cadets to vote for a Sponsor Colonel. The girl thus chosen is the representative of the entire battalion, and she holds -one of the highest honors Chrisrnan offers. This year Patty Campbell was selected for the office. As Sponsor Colonel Miss Campbell assisted in the planning of the annual H. O. T. C. Ball and arranged the entertainment. She and Myron Thoma- son, Cadet Lieutenant Colonel, led the urrlcfns This year the R. O. T. C. unit at William Chrisman was organized as a single bat- talion of four companies. The battalion headquarters or command group was corn- posed of the battalion commander, Cadet Lieutenant Colonel Myron Thomason and his staff. Colonel Thomason held a very re- sponsible position and was selected for his high scholastic ratings and his outstanding achievements as an R. O. T. C. officer. The staff consisted of four officers: Cadet Major Freddie Logan, the second in command and executive officer of the Corps: Cadet Major Edward Mathews, the third in command and also the plans and training officer: Cadet Captain Richard Sterrett, the Battaliontadju- tant, and Cadet First Lieutenant Carl Knoep- ker, Intelligence officer. Each' of the four companies was headed by two captains who acted as company commanders. This means that there were ten third year cadets with captain's commissions. Furthermore, there were thirteen first lieutenants and ten second lieutenants, Who served as platoon leaders. 'Although these were all who re- ceived commissions, there were many third year first, staff, and regular sergeants, and other noncornmissioned officers. Grand March at the R. O. T. C. Ball.

On these pages are the pictures of the boys who took many a hard knock for the honor of Chrisman High. The team this 'year had several streaks of bad luck, but considering the inexperience of the boys the team did a remarkable job. Coach Huhn spent many hours toward achieving the precise, accn- rate timing that is needed for any good organization, and he should be complimented on the understanding and pleasant Way he instructed the boys in the arts of kicking, passing, and handling the ball. - A V t V.

' The Chrisman team was in exceptionally fine shape this year. The Chrisman- Bears were successful in nearly all of their meets and won frequently in all the fields. Meets were held with Northeast, East, Southeast, Rosedale, North Kansas City, and Liberty. A Sorne of the outstanding boys in the various events were: dashes and relays, Fields, Savage, Weatherford, Crump, Harti- gan, Snider, Tisdale, Terrill, 440 ,Savage, Lundquist, Weather- ford, Hartigan, Wilhelmsenp mile and half mile, Speck, Cal- houn, Lundquist, Ward: discus, Cramer, lones, Hopkins: pole vault, Hoskins, Cox, Speck, Forkner, E. Constance, D. Con- stance, shot put, Brewer, Roberts, Bell, Leiboldp high jump, Fields, Savage, lones, Crump, Coldsnow, Ruley. Chrisrnan was very fortunate in having with them again this year three letterrnen of last year. They were: Walter Speck, Harold Savage, and Lawrence Fields. These boys helped make the team a winning one. 74 4 TRACK Harold Savane Lawrence Fields Walter Speck 1 2, Q M.-.. .

Through the boys' gym we at Chris- man are doing our part to prepare healthier fighting men and stronger citizens for the future. ' A The course covers a wide variety of sports. Some of these are: aerial darts, .table ten- nis, volley ball, basketball, golf, ping-pong, all track events, the new commando tests, and mat work, which includes gymnastics, wrestling, tumbling, and boxing. After the boys have learned the fundamentals of these sports, they are then separated into teams to compete in the annual tournaments. Later, they are allowed to make gym letter tests to earn their coveted gym letters. It is encouraging to find that most of the highest records in the various events have been made within the past two years. Those holding the records are: Iones, Weatherford, pull ups, '42, Kenneth Savage, 100 yard dash: '42y Albert Wells, stand jump, '43p Kenneth Savage, 60 yard hurdles, '42g lames Weatherford, rope climb, '42g Tommy Camp- bell, 3l5 yard dash, '4l: Robert Murdock. push ups, '-42: Kenneth Savage, high jump, '42p Charles Siegfried, pound shot put, '37p Iarnes Worrel, deep knee bends, '42. From this chart we can see something of the en- thusiastic spirit which is, and always has been, connected with boys' gym. It is a spirit which proves that Chrisrnan boys will always be at the top. The annual field day proved to be an ex- citing and fitting climax to the many gym activities of 1944. 75 l Y' GIRLS',GYM All girls in Chrisman who are physically fit are required to take two semesters of physical education. This is enjoyed byimost Chrisman girls as they have an opportunity to take part in competitive sports. These sports develop quicker co-ordination be- tween the mind and muscles and teach girls the value of teamwork and good sportsman- ship. Playing also affords the girls mental relaxation. Chrisman had a new girls' physical edu- cation instructor this year as Miss Betty Anne Street of last year enlisted in the WAVES. She was replaced by Mrs. Coull. First semester, softball and tennis were taught and played at the campus in the fall. ln softball the skills of pitching, catching, running, and batting are taught and prac- ticed for' several weeks. Girls who show greatest ability for the game are elected by the class to be their class team in the intra- mural tournament. The winning class team plays the M club. Each member of any ....:..e.e:v.e...... .. , ....-.- team able to defeat the Club receive a large blue C. - The next major sport played is volle ball. This game requires aptness and a acquired control of the ball. A powerft serving and spiking technique is desired t gain points' for your team. A volley ba tournament is also played. Basketball i probably the favorite sport in girls' 'gyrr and the basketball season is looked forwar to with pleasure. The many rules must b learned and observed. Drills are given o bouncing, passing, and shooting the bal They help develop knowledge and skill fc the game. This is a game in which lightnin fast speed is desired. By practice, iudgmer as to know how to put the ball into th basket is developed. The inter-class tourr arnent is quite exciting to the rooters as We as to the team members. The fifth hour clas of first semester defeated the other clas teams but was then defeated by the M club. The fifth hour team and M clul team put on a short exhibition game be- tween halves of the Chrisman Bears' versus East Bears' game, The audience found girls' basketball quite a contrast to boys' basket- ball. Besides the three major sports, the girls are instructed throughout the year in danc- ing, tumbling, and calisthenics. The basic dancing steps are taught to beginners in dancing. Tumbling includes stunts such as front rolls, backward rolls, head stands, div- ing, and hand springs. These stunts seem quite difficult to beginners: but when they are taught step by step with safety pre- cautions, they become quite simple. Calis- 77 thenics are given a few minutes each class period. At first, the result is many sore must cles, but these are soon limbered by con- tinuous exercising and the body then has more agility. The desire of many girls taking qYm -is to earn a Missouri State Girls' athletic letter and become a member of the M club. This is attained by earning l,0OO points. Points are given for scholarship, sportsmanship, service, athletic achievements, and member- ship on the softball, volley ball, and basket- ball teams. The next desire is to earn the Super M which is attained as the regular M's y only 500 more points are required.

' Membership is open to every student K I Club is to promote a 'feel- ul xl I' X in William Chrisman upon payment of dues and fulfillment of ob- ligations imposed by the club. The officers of the Pep Club are elected by the group from the six cheer leaders chosen by the student body. The executive board of the club is composed of two seniors, two juniors, and one sophomore elected by the group in addition to the cheer leaders. The officers for this year were president, V, Patty Campbell, secretary, johnny Lund, assisted by Allene Burgess: treasurer, Richard Ster- rett. T The executive board members were Loni Land, jack Roberts, and Patty Ramsey, cheer leaders: and representatives, Barbara Henderson, Virginia Weddle, Shirley Myers, Dolores G-oodridge, and Howard Downs. The fingers of war reached into the cheer leading group soon after the school year be- gan when Kenny Kirkham, cheer leader of last year and this year joined thearmed forces. A T A dance given before the Christmas holi- day for the football team and the club, and the Homecoming celebration on the field were its most colorful affairs. The gold topperjthe blue megaphone, and the letter' C with Pep on it are the badges ,of membership in the Pep Club. These are presented to members upon pay- ment of dues but remain the property of the club until the student is a seniori Mrs. Coull, physical education teacher, sponsored the group. Q M CLUB E . The M ,Club of William Chrisman was organized in the year 1926. The girls in the club strive to promote good sportsmanship and a greater interest in athletics. To become a member of the M Club, al girl must first achieve a total of 1000 points, based on scholarship, athletic ability, health, leadership, and sportsmanship. She must then pass the initiation. If pa girl makes be- low an M in any subject after becoming a member of the club, she is dropped from the roll until the grade is brought back to average. P T lt is the aim of every girl having attained membership in the club to acquire a Super M. To obtain this, the member must again win l000 points and 500 additional points in which swimming is required. Virginia Weddle and Ethel Grabhorn are the only girls in the club now having a Super M. This year, the club has played its tradi- tional games with the class winners in base- ball, basketball, and volleyball. They were not defeated in any of these games. ' The officers for the present year are for the first and second semesters respectively: president: Ethel Grabhorn, Marilyn Van Trump: vice president, Marilyn Van Trump, Virginia Weddle: secretary, Virginia Wed- dle, Carol Clemencey treasurer, Carol Clem- ence, Iuanita Winfrey: reporter, Elna Olson, Maxine Gould.

A The Shakespearean Literary Society, for twenty-three years, has offered these fine characteristics to girlslof Chrisman. During thefirst term the office of president was very well handled by lean Baker. Her assistants were Carol Clemence, vice president: lean Nagel, treasurer: Margery Thiel, secretary. During the second semester Marcheta ln- man :was selected to carry on the work of the president. She was supported by Mary Agnes Weeks as vice-president, Margaret Townsend, as secretary, Marilyn Van Trump as treasurer.

In February the assembly was given by the Shakespearean Literary Society demon- strating these various' interests. It was well planned and unique. The club has been very progressive this year under the able leadership of Miss Fal- lon and Mrs. Duggan. The name-Shakespearean Society is full of meaning for its members. It represents their admiration for one who gave to the world a literature never to be forgotten: but it has a deeper meaning even than that. It stands for high ideals: clean living, working together for the betterment of the community, as well as for themselves. It presents to the members a challenge for the future and pre- pares them to take their place in society and meet their problems as adults.

The societies had a get acquainted tea for every girl in Chrisman. A variety pro- gram was presented and refreshments were served. About two hundred girls attended has well as special guests. The tea was such a suc ess that it was unanimously voted to make it an annual affair. Another event sponsored by the three so- ci ties was the Inter-Society Dance held on April 14. The As-You-Like-It girls also accomplished many things themselves. A variety program was given for the assemblies on November l8 and l9. The traditional Thanksgiving basket was given at Thanksgiving, and the club gave toys and games to the Mercy Hos- pital for Christmas.

For the Red Cross the girls made fifty pairs of red and blue quilted cotton slippers to be worn by convalescing soldiers in hospitals. Also, shower curtains were made for the girls'f gymnasium in Chrisman. Besides sewing work some club meetings were held in the cooking labora- tory where cooking projects as cake decora- tions, for example, were discussed and prac- ticed.

This group has a manual from which they learn about the lighting, the sound effects, balancing of the sets, and the desired composition of the stage. This work is a task in itself. A ' The- stage crew is composed of individuals interested in public performances and who are willing to give unselfishly of their time, making the school productions move for- ward rapidly and smoothly. This group is instructed by Miss Cassell, who has put out 'Tintiring efforts toward making our plays the e Crew successes that they have been and which we hope they will continue to be. The stu- . dents composing the stage crew have many jobs such as producing sound et-fectsg help- ing with the costumingg seeing A that each property is in its place: and making articles themselves that are unobtainable. , a The stage crew has given its assistance in .many performances such as, Seven Keys to Baldpate, the speech department playg Best Foot Forward, the junior play: You Can't Take lt With You, the' senior play: and The Bashful Bachelor, the sophomore play. lAll of these performances have been great-successes and enjoyed immensely by everyone who saw them, but part of their success should be credited to the people of the stage crew who devoted their untiring efiorts toward making them successful.

They chose a group of interested and industrious stu- dents and passed on some of their OCD training, which included courses in first aid, war gases, fire fighting and bomb fighting, and group psychology and organization. The two senior wardens then T divided the building and assigned each junior warden to a section of an average of three rooms, for which he was responsible. Two drills were raid or otherwise. While the threat of enemy raids is minim- ized, an enemy Suicide Squad could raise havoc, so the OCD have ordered all organ- izations to remain intact. Instead of being idle, the warden system has taken over the fire drill organizations. Equipped with a new OCD stirrup pump for fighting fires, and training in first aid and group leadership, the wardens are ready for anything. will in lzfs' ill ,I EQ , , : M- V H 'Minn' W W A 1 Y - l' at V. i if 2.3, lit . .it sfzl li-fil !' iii 11.52 Quilt lil: alll: ll W I'-lf Eli M 4 '-.1 .RH ' ,.,,. 31521 J Flin: gl I gtfll ,jill 'H :till ,ttf W .lil it lil N51 ' F ,L ll I 5 gl I is l. ,,, rl. 4 I .lt all pit! lx , ,. tl lfii ,Magi T .iw 'fa W till 1 'H hill 121151 'lil . ,,, EW all all, tsp L., ti', tx.

' The play took place in the home of ,Martin Vanderhof, an elderly man, in New' York. Alice Sycamore CMona Allen and Marcheta Inmanl had fallen in love with her employer, Tony Kirby Charles Matthewsl. Penelope Sycamore fMaXine Gould and Leah lune Normanl, Alice's mother, wrote plays which he Brewer? made fireworks in the basement. Ed CLewis Libbyl, E'ssie's husband, printed radical booklets. Martin Vanderhof, CHugh Rushl, Alice's grandfather, quit business one day and from that time his chief delight was to goto commencements and to the zoo. Alice invited the Kirbys to dinner one night: and although they disapproved of the match, they accepted the invitation. They arrived, but on the wrong evening. SENIOR PLAY Mr. and Mrs. Kirby tGarrett Carpenterand Ethel Grabhornl were shocked by the scene they 'saw. Essie's ballet teacher, Boris Kolenkhov fldicharcl Wilkiel, was giving her a lesson while Ed provided the music on a wanted his family to see Alice's family as they really were, and to like them. When. Mr. Kirby told Alice that he liked her very much, she hesitated about taking the trip.

Mrs. Sycamore had turned from writing to her first love, painting, and she was painting a picture of Mr. DePinna, who was colorful in a Roman costume! Gay Wellington Uoan Macrael, an actress, was lying on the sofa, drunk. Rheba, tfBonnibelle Nelson and Lucy Iane Comptonl the colored maid, was visiting with her beau, Donald, CDon Utslerl. Grandpa was throwing darts. After assuring the Kirbys that it would be all right for them to stay for dinner, Penny sent Donald to the store for some frank- furters. Boris tried to entertain the Kirbys by Wrestling with Mr. Kirby, and broke his glasses in the struggle. Mr. Kirby had indi- gestion, but Boris assured him that it was stomach ulcers. ' I While Rheba was fixing dinner three men fGeorge Gregg, Raymond Sanders, and Ray Paxtonl rushed in. They were G men look- ing for Ed. They had found some samples of Ed's printing and thought he was a spy. Everyone in the house was taken to the po- lice station and held overnight. The next day everything looked hopeless. Alice decided to go to the mountains for a vacation, and no one could persuade her to change her mind. Mr. Kirby and Tony came to see the fam-' ily, and Grandpa Vanclerhof convinced Mr. Kirby that he shouldn't work so hard. Tony confessed that he brought his family to din- ner on the wrong night deliberately. He Myron Thomason as a tax collector was convincing. Tane Mae lnouye as Olga, the poverty-stricken Russian noblewoman, pro- vided laughs. Hugh Rush as Grandpa was excellent. Each of the actors contributed to the play's development and the audience's keen enjoyment. The sponsor was Miss Ianie Chiles, and the assistant sponsor was Miss Nanabel Cassell., Their work on the play was greatly appreciated by all.

Complications arise when Bud Hooper tBob Huqhesl sud- denly finds himself in the bewildering posi- tion of having two dates to the annual prom. He is torn betweenlhis affection for his local girl friend CAnn Ienningsl, and a sense of loyalty to a Hollywood glamour girl CGlenna Iacobsl whom he invited thinking, of course, she would not come. When the screen star accepts the invitation, Bud tells his regular girl he is ill ,and cannot attend the dance. His girl, not suspecting the real reason for from his complications.. Byron Stewart and Bob Cramer made a fine comedy team with their excellent performances. Supported by an equally Well-chosen cast, consisting of Iirn Page, Kenneth Taylor, Mark Handley, Larry Hedden, Corrine Walkenhorst, Patricia Brown, Io Ann Payton, Shirley Myers, Lewis Roberts, Dick Green, Billy Powell, and Char- lotte Stewart, the play was performed suc- cessfully both nights. The directors, Miss Kreeger and Mrs. Williams, spent many hours with the cast preparing the play, and they maybe proud of the results. SOPI-IOMORE PLAY The Bashful Bachelor, a sparkling three- act comedy, by Anne Ferring Weatherby, was presented by the sophomore class, March 30 and 31. Q David Hampton, The Bashful Bachelor, writes a best sel1er and is immediately asked to teach novel writing in a small mid- western college. Upon arrival, David was extremely shocked to find an all girl school and him- self one of the few men on the faculty. Thus he becomes even more bashful and awk- ward. Nevertheless, he is very popular with all the girls, a fact which makes the situation more involved. Molly Abbott, the exception, scorns him because, like her eccentric aunt, she disapproves of all rnen. David immedi- ately likes her, because he can be her friend knowing he will not be a victim of her affection. A thrilling and unexpected climax was reached with a robbery, pearls, and an arrest. Working side by side ,with the directors, Miss Hiller and Mrs. Coull, were the student directors, Frances Oeser, Dorothy Eastwood, and Betty Thomas. The play was presented with a dual cast for the purpose of permitting a greater number of students to prove their acting ability. Each student portrayed his part well, adding another success to the long list of sophomore plays. A ' THE R. 0. T. C. MILITARY BALL The ninth annual Military Ball of the Re- serve Officers Training',Corps was held March l7, at Memorial Hall. 'Against a background of red, white, and bluebunting, the R. O. T. C. cadets, their beautifully gowned companions, and .invited guests formed the most colorful and formal event of the year for our high school. Proceedings unfolded Friday evening before a balcony filled with spectators, all watching intently. The Ball began with the reception of the corps by'a group of the leading civic and military figures in this area: Those in the reception .line were Cadet Sponsor Colonel Patty. Campbell and Cadet Lt. Colonel My- ron Thornason: Captain Guy Hatfield, Com- mander of Company 'iM : Mrs. H. C. Dean, wife of the late Chrisman R. O. T. C. in- structor: Lt. T. T. Stocks: P. M. S. 6: T.: Sgt. G. F.

The Grand March, formed after the receiv- ing line, is one of the traditional features of the Ball and was thehighlight of the even- ing. Two. hundred and twenty cadets and their dates took part, filling the arena floor The March was led by Cadet Lieutenant Col- onel Thomason with Sponsor Colonel Patty Campbell followed by Cadet Major Fred Lo- gan, and Cadet Major Edward Mathews and their companions. The Grand March was clirnaxed with the cadets saluting while the orchestra played The Star-Spangled Banner. Dutch Hol- land's orchestra struck up a dance number: and as the lines broke up and the lights dimmed, the Ball was on in earnest.

C. units in Kan- sas City were presented by Cadet Lt. Col. Thomason and afterwards a short floor show was presented. This portion of the enter- tainment was obtained by the Sponsor Colonel. A T ' A dramatic moment during the evening was a moment of silence in tribute to the late Sgt. H. C. Dean, who died' early in the school year. As silence fell over the great hall, it was evident that Sgt. Dean was loved and respected by the students and parents alike. The Military Ball has become a tradition in Chrisman. Each year more cadets and their dates attend, and each year it is looked forward to with more enthusiasm than last year. Half the enjoyment comes from the preparation. For two weeks before the Ball mixers are held in the girls' gym under the supervision of Sgt. Richter, and the Sponsor Colonel for the cadets and all Chrisman girls who wish to attend. The music is furnished by a victrola and-the cadets learn new steps as well as the fundamentals of dancing. L Then committees for the event are chosen and plans are formed. The chairman of the committees were as follows: refreshments, Cadet Major Logan: program, Cadet Cap- tain Iohnny Lundy invitations, Cadet Lt. Colonel Thomason: supervised by the,Spon- sor Colonel, Patty Campbelll ' ' Much excitement is aroused by the contest in which one girl is chosen as Sponsor Colo- nel. The candidates. me nominated by -the cadets in their R. O. T. C. classes. , The list of nominees is then voted on until only three names remain. The final vote isto determine who shall be Sponsor Colonel. 'Z And so' you can see why'the townspeople look forward to the Ballas the most- colorful pageant of the year. A ' A INTER SUCIETY DANCE AND MIXERS Some of the most enjoyable outside activi- ties have been the mixers after school. These activities committee of the student council which is under the direction of Mrs. Mary Duggan. They were held in the boys gym at four oclock and any student .was Wel- come to attend and to dance. The music was ,furnished by the school re- cording machine using records that the stu- dent council had purchased during the last three years. Also some of the students will- ingly loaned some of their own records. The P. T. A. sponsored a mixer after every home football and basketball game. These were attended not only by the students of William Chrisman but also by the students of the visiting school. , The students thor- oughly enjoyed these mixers. - Some ofthe people who made these mix- ers possible were: Mrs. Schroeder, Miss Singleton, Miss Sampson, Miss Hill, Miss Kreeger, Miss Clement, -Miss Hawes, Miss MacDonald, Mr. Morrish, Mrs. Williams, Miss Stewart,VMiss Page, Mr. Webb, Miss Aiken, Miss Welborn, Miss Potter, Miss F il- Friday March 24 1944 the sophomore class sponsored by: Miss Riller Miss Aiken Stewart Miss Singleton Miss Sherman Mr. Morrish Mr. Conyers Mr. Webb Mr. Han- son Miss Clement Miss Welborn and Miss Filkin had a party. There was dancing in the boys gym for the boys and girls who cared to dance. Games were also being played upstairs. Shuffle-board attracted a large crowd in the second floor hall. Many ping-pong enthusiasts greatly enjoyed get- ting together for a short time. ,There were also games to exercise the mind, such as chess, checkers and bingo. The crowd de- parted at 12:00 p. m. agreeing that this was one of the most enjoyable evenings they had spent. Everyone felt they had been indeed fortunate, since this was the first sophomore party that has ever been held in Chrisman. The sophomores all hope there Will be a junior party next year so they will again be able to participate in another get-together. The students do enjoy these mixers and the underclassmen are looking forward in the coming year to many more of these get- togethers. At 3:30 p. m. oft the night of April 14, 1944, I - I I mixers have been sponsored by the social Miss Hawes, Mrs. Coull, Miss Myers, Miss I I I I I I I I I ' 1 kin, Mrs. Brush, Mr. Morris, Miss Sherman, Miss Cassell, Mrs. Davis, Miss Fallon, Miss Riller, Miss M.

' b ' Two weeks before the annual Military Ball, Sergeant Richter sponsored after school mixers every day in the girls' gym. The purpose of the mixers was to help the boys with their dancing so they would fully enjoy the RQO. T. C. ball. These mixers usually started with line-ups. That is all the girls formed a line and the boys formed another and they walked off together. This was to help the cadets and the girls to become bet- ter acquainted.

The first such reception was held in William Chrisman High School in 1906. Since that time it has become an annual affair. ln order to finance this gala affair, or junior play is presented, and dues are col- lected from each junior. Probably those who have Worked the hardest in making this year's prom the huge success it proved to be were the teachers and students serving on the four committees which planned and arranged the entire pro- gram., . , The beautiful color scheme was pro- vided by the skillful decorating committee composed of the following juniors: Bob Smith, Richard Neas, lim Page, Warren Wes- ton, Shirley Myers, and Loni Land. Their able sponsors were Miss Frances Kreegei and Mrs. Asenath Schroeder. The fine dance band and floor show were. provided by the entertainment committee which was sponsored by Miss Lucille Hawes' and Mr. Huhn with Bob Cramer, Pat Gabriel, Bob Hughes, and Glenna Iacobs assisting. It would not be possible to forget the res freshment committee who had as its spon- sors: Miss Ada Fallon and Miss Page. The students assisting were Delores Tence, Mary Ellen Snitzmier, Lewis Iagger, LeRoy Weiss, and Cork Daniels. T The last but certainly not the least of these committees was the ticket and invitation commitee composed of Frances, Noland, Doris Griffith, and Patsy Warren. The capa- ble teachers aiding these juniors were Mrs. Florence Brush and Miss Nanabel Cassell. Students who did not care to dance were provided. with games and other forms of rec- reation in the study hall. ln this way, every- one was able to take part in some type of en- tertainment Which made the evening a very enjoyable occasion for students and teach- ers as Well.

Highways Lanes of commerce Arteries of lite-blood Carry supplies for a nation At war. Bob Cook 46 A CHILD AT NIGHT Darkness comes and with it Fear of unknown forms Flitting about in black intensity' Fearthat comes each night to sit In staring silence, or storms About in bleak uncertainty. The dread of darkness o'e-rtakes And chokes a sob, a cry From lips trembling with fright. Through the darkness a word breaks, And with it fades the fear to die, And with it comes the blessed light.

Alta Mae Worth '44 A SPARK IN THE FOREST Carelessly a spark is left In a lonely spot to diep, Its harmful days are nearing a close, The only witness is the sky. The spark 'looks up in agony, Pleading to the sky at length. But scornfully the sky looks back, To watch it lose its strength. But suddenly a gust of wind steps in, An ally from out of nowhere, And delivers the spark from its dying stage To a strengthened vengeance glare. And when the spark begins to glow, lt snares its prey, the weak and lame, And from their beings starts a flame. Soon a tree has met its fate: Once beautiful, tall, and straight of back, It now lies motionless: burnt and black. The fire spreads from tree to tree, Each dying from the heated blast, And once again the sky looks down, Of the beautiful forest, she has seen the last The Earth is like a mighty forest: Beautiful, straight, and strong, And above, the sky is smiling, While the birds sing loud and long. But when the spark ot hate is dropped, And the winds of jealousy blow, The spark grows strong again, And spreads its selfish glow. The world is once .again on tire: Beauty gives way to destruction's force, While men and states pit all their strength To alter destiny and the enemies' course. Oh builders of the centuries, You made the history of the Earth, Why turn now on your flowering progress, Destrowing centuries of glowing mirth? Lay down your arms, And mend your paths, Snuff out the sparks of evil, L And forget your wraths. Edward Fry '4-14 ADVANCEMENT Man has argued, fought and killed Through many a bloody year, He has progressed in many things But his greatest product is fear. The progress man has made, As l have said, is great, But still though Very civilized His greatest product is hate. Man has long been forward moving, Despite his color or his nationality In many fine, futile ways, But his greatest product is brutality. Physically he has traveled far But soon he'll see the dawn, When man must, in later years, Use brains instead of brawn. lack Nielsen '44 4.-1,1-n George C Carson Funeral and Ambulance Servlce LADY ATTENDANT Our Funeral Home IS Completely Air Conditioned by Refrigeration 101 North Pleasant Street Phone CLIHOH 1010 101 1 INDEPENDENCE MISSOURI Congratulation to the Class of lnsurance Real Estate 1944 Independence Paint and Wallpaper Co. 220 W.
