Under your watchful care we began our careers. lt was you who guided our hands when our first brush strokes on Life's canvas were made. lt is you who are now our inspir- ation and kindly praeceptors. You who have known both the highlights and the somber hues in life's picture are still our best in- structors. To you, our sincerest friends and greatest teachers, in respect and gratitude we dedi- cate this book. 1 I we pg ., ,Q vi, ...Av in vm g , gr M ,Mi rr ' 'li' :nigga sr vis, s A .mmf an -wif 42 U , V952 45' ' f H-n.kL. , 'hs- 4 .af M -f ...M . .v ......v--ici gr 2 W5 A qv .W 5 -1.v.,,x uf iw wwf I 1 'M-1-X.. .

KEITH Bachelor of Science Southwest Missouri State College Springfield, Missouri Master of Education University of Missouri Columbia, Missouri Additional Graduate Work: George Peabody College for Teachers Nashville, Tennessee The students of William Chrisman are fortunate to have as administrative head of the school system Superintendent Lowell G. Keith. His educational program for the city of Independence is comprehensive and progressive. Early in his administration Mr. Keith became acquainted with school personnel, the work of student organizations, the resources of the community, and the policies of the Board of Education. As superintendent, he has been the unifying factor in the school program and the able executive through whose acts the educational plans of the community have been put into smooth operation. Although Mr. Keith's work does not bring him into classroom acquaintance with the students, he has succeeded in coming into close contact with them in various ways, his office doors are always open to visitors. Evidences of the development of skill and under- standing will find no greater approbation than that which is felt and expressed by Mr. Keith. ln his work Mr, Keith is ably assisted by Mrs. Mildred Kearnes, secretary, and Miss Martha Hutchens, clerk. I May we, the students of William Chrisman who are trying to paint Life's picture well, here express our deep appreciation for the helpful suggestions of our superintendent on the art of living. --111 BOARD OF EDUCATION ' INDEPENDENCE SCHOOL BOARD MISS KATIE CHASTAIN, MR. MARVIN CARL. MRS. ADRON RANDALL Secretary-Treasurer ' MR' JOHN W. LUFFI DR. Fi.oYD A. YALE President Vice president MRS. L. F. P. CURRY DR. EUGENE THEISS We wish to take this opportunity to express to the members of the Board of Education the gratitude of Independence community for the time and thought which they have given to the planning for the c-ity's schools. Without the wisdom and the foresight of these men and women, school policies could not have been so beneficial nor so consistently progres- sive. Perhaps no elective body in the American system of government gives itself to the task of effecting a sound legislative program with more conscientious application than-do the school boards throughout our land. It is with pride that we name our own in this group and take this opportunity to express our appreciation. ln a very special way do we wish to voice our gratitude to Mr. John W. Luff, who has for nearly a score of years been a member of the board and is now its retiring president. Elected to the board in l93l and made president in l936, Mr. Luff has served the patrons and the youth of Independence well. He has rejoiced in the high achievement of Chrisman students in all fields of endeavor, and along with the diplomas it has been his task so long to confer, have gone Mr. Luff's best wishes for success in the future. For his wisdom, his perseverance, and his benevolent interest, we pay our sincerest tribute. I ' IllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllI ..'l2.. 5 'iT- J1:':::-:ne-2.11.14-.Q-Lf.I.i.

His instruc- tional tasks include classes in advanced math- ematics. The greater part of his school day, how- ever, is spent in adminis- trative and clerical duties, particularly those con- cerning the attendance of resident, non-resident, and tuition pupils. In this clerical and administra- tive work Mr. Lefever is assisted most efficiently by Mrs. Mable Alley. Mr. Lefever's record at William Chrisman is a long and fine one. Good instruction, decisive ac- tion and careful planning mark his tenure here. The smooth functioning of var- ious school departments is due in no small meas- ure to Mr. Lefever. We the publishers of the I949 GLEAM wish to express our sincere thanks to Mr Lefever for his efforts to make our school life memorable for its pleasure and its profit 'kink Gregory Lefever vice principal Mable Alley secretary Susan Parobok secretary Martha Hutchens clerk Mildred Kearnes secretary 1 1 1 I - I 1 I I I - .- ' PRINCIPAL Bachelor of Science In Educa tlon Bachelor of Arts Northeast Mlssourl State Col ege Klrksvllle Mlssourn Master of Arts University of Mussourn Columbia Mlssourl Additional Graduate Work Unlverslty of Mlssourl Unlverslty of Mlchlgan We Sensors of the Class of l949 have been fortunate In havlng as our Prlnclpal Mr Jesse H Stlnson Durlng the three years of our attendance In Wnlluam Chrnsman Stlnson has directed our student life with qulet efflcuency He has been helpful when we were In dlfflculty sympathetlc when we were troubled and firm when our actions necessl tated a decision Mr Stinson has effected numerous changes IH the management of office records, mak :ng frllng more easy and Information more accessable, and all phases of his admunustra tlve work have been carried out with efficacy and drspatch Assisting Mr Stinson as Mass Susan Parobok, a well tralned assistant to whom the duties of secretary are matters of prompt and meticulous care It .5 the Wish gf our Class thot under mfr pr...clpal's dlrectnon, our alma mater may con tlnue to serve a useful purpose In tralnlng American youth for worthy accomplishment In whatever statnon In llfe the future funds them Moy all the school Scenes In Llfe-'S plcture be pleasant ones because of wise leadershlp 15 JESSE H.

The season was charac- terized by exciting games in which five were won and four were lost. When a crisis in the game camehup, the team could be relied upon for quick, smart thinking, and workable teammanship. Such qualities were a great help in driving over that winning goal. The teagm was carefully picked from the approximately thirty-five boys who turned out for spring practice at the, upper campus. Other players showing definite ability, but need- ing practice and correction, were slated for the second team. These fellows show promise of being star players in the coming year. As in the past the team ran most of their plays from the T formation. This is probably the favorite formation of the team as it requires the speed of the backs and the brawn of the linemen, which our team really had. The William Chrisman football team played again this year in the Pony Express League. -Chrisman has played in this league quite regularly. The teams composing this tough league are St. Joseph Benton, St. Joseph Central, St. Joseph Lafayette, North Kan- sas City, Wentworth Military Academy, and William Chrisman. The responsibilities of student managers for the team were capably shared by Harold McGlassion, Harley Davis, and Robert Andes, who 'were very popular and likable fellows, ideally suited to their jobs. l To Coach Redford and Assistant Coach Travis Hopkins, we owe a real vote of thanks for aiding our team to come through in those tough moments of the game. A good coach means a lot when it comes to putting that pigskin over the goal.

IWKCYN, GARN XX Hi E IUJTE P um 1 Basketball The William Chrisman Bears started off an exciting season in November with their entry in the Greenwood Tournament, and completed their extra-mural competition in March in the first round of the Missouri State Regional contest. Chrisman cagers had an out- standing season this year in that out of the twenty-four games played, fifteen were won and nine were lost. This bettered last year's record of eight wins and six losses. The most of the games played by the Bears this year have been either conference or tournament contests. Games with only four schools that Chrisman played did not involve a tournament or conference title. Early in the season the Bears played Liberty and won the game 42 to 35. Some weeks later the Chrisman cagers opposed their long-time rivals, the Northeast Vikings, who have been taking their full share of football and basketball games for many years. This year it was the Vikings who lost the game to their bruin rivals by a score of 28 to 26. Later in the season the Chrisman Bears played Raytown and won by the safe margin of 38 to 30. Soon afterward they competed against East High School and conquered the opposition by a close 22 to 20. r A The first trophy of the year was won when Chrisman placed first in the Greenwood tournament. ln the Missouri Valley Tournament Chrisman lost in the second, game. One of the big events of the year was the playing of the Pony Express Conference. The schools competing were Wentworth Military Academy, North Kansas City, Chrisman, and the three schools of St. Joseph-Lafayette, Central, and Benton. A With each school playing twice, Lafayette was the only one to beat Chrisman both times. Lafayette took home the title and Chrisman stood, finally, in fifth place. ln the State Sub Regional Tournament Chrisman was awarded the trophy for second place after being defeated by Ruskin.

O. T. C. unit at William Chrisman. The unit was organized in l935 under the sponsorship of the Tirey J. Ford Post of the American Legion. The primary objective of the R. O. T. C. department is to contribute its share to the development of good citizens. The drill and other military training helps implant in the cadet the positive habits of precision, orderliness, correctness of posture and deportment. The secondary objective is .to prepare the cadets for further 'military instruction qualifying them for positions of leadership in times of national emergency. Outdoor drill and tactics teach many lessons in leadership, cooperative effort and the value of teamwork in gaining success. instruction map reading and military history. . HONORS AND AWARDS There are also many practical classroom studies: first aid, personal hygiene, current world situation, methods of . Competition between units and individuals within the corps is kept very active by shoulder cord awards to the three best cadets in each company every week. Theoretical and inspection ribbons are awarded to the twenty-four leading cadets of the corps at the end of each ,nine-weeks period. The scholastic ribbon is awarded to each cadet achieving a 3.5 average in all his school work at the end of each semester. The out- standing senior and junior cadet receives the Colonel Robert R. McCormick medal each semester. Mt the an- nual field night competition, awards are presented for the outstanding company, platoon, squad, and individual drill. The warrant officers are presented mementos in recognition of their valued assistance to the cadet corps during the year. The cadet colonel is presented the Sons of The American Revolution medal as outstanding senior cadet for the year. ' I RIFLE TEAM The R. O. T. C. rifle team has for several years been a proud representative of William Chrisman in rifle competition over the midwest states, During the past three years the team has been undefeated in shoulder to shoulder competition. The past two years the team has finished in fifth place in the Fifth Army Matches cover- ing an area of thirteen midwest and northwest states. Four members of the rifle team won the distinguished rifleman medal, the highest award of the National Rifleman's Association. R. O. T. C. BALL The outstanding social event of the year was the R. O. T. C. ball, held this year on March l8. Many weeks in preparation of the decorations resulted in a canopy of bright streamers, centered by five revolving mirrored globes reflecting colored lights throughout the auditorium. With the sponsor officers and ladies dressed in their finest the occasion was one of beauty long to be remembered. FIFTH ARMY HEADQUARTERS INSPECTION The true test of the year's work is the annual inspection held by Fifth Army Headquarters on May 9 and IO. For the past seven years William Chrisman has been successful in receiving the high HONOR SCHOOL rating at this difficult inspection. In i948 the corps in addition, received the SUPERIOR rating that is awarded to only the top ten per cent of the R. O. T. C. units of the nation. This rating authorizes the cadet to wear the gold wreath around the red star on his right sleeve. At the time of this writing the I949 results are not known, however, every effort is being made by the corps to keep the coveted SUPERIOR rating. With such recognized success behind the corps, it is with pride that all look upon the R. O. T. C. unit. It is truly helping to prepare better citizens and leaders for tomorrow. . . wi- .mae ..-mm--V ---....:.-::f1-:f..su.-41.1,-..-,-.,. .....-.:':ae:Jm-un.:rw.-J.LL1T..Lg.D:L::...':.::me:.:-,511-q.4l..::.:.N.-.::f.e:5:-...vu-s.-v.--A -1 J: ' ne- v-- - Scenes From The Military Ball The fourteenth annual R.O.T.C.

'11 GUIDANCE SERVICES SEATED: Peter Gallup, Andrew Parrish, Ella May Peacock, Katherine Cannon, Wynona Hayworth, Joyce Mitchell. ' STANDING: Mr. Berg, Quinn Atchley. - Guidance is a new term to many-both students in the school and interested educational observers. It has been received by some as yet another fad and frilI in the educational field, by others as a panacea for all the problems that perplex our students and those in charge of educational administration. These view- points have had a highly detrimental effect upon the formation of guidance programs in many quarters. For those who consider guidance only another fad it has been given cursory examination. Others who look upon guidance as a cure-all feel deluded when no abrupt changes take place after guidance has been introduced to the school. A careful examination of guidance, its methods and goals, will probably bring about ei more realistic attitude. 1 ' It should be considered initially that guidance activities have been carried on in the school over a period of many years although the term guidance may not have been applied to these activities. Good teachers have always practiced sound guidance techniques and will continue to do so regardless of whether or not a formal guidance program exists in the school. Much misunderstanding can be corrected, therefore, with the realization that the term is newer than the concept and that the comparatively recent adoption of such terms as guidance or personnel work have only accompanied an intensification of activity in certain phases of education. Guidance can probably best be understood in terms of the services included in its practice. These services are defined as assistance to students in the selection of courses, in the choice of appropriate vocational and educational goals, and the planning of steps to accomplish these goals. Job placement of students is also a definite function, as it is the logical culmination of efforts to assist the individual in a suitable vocation selec- tion. The heart of the guidance program is a service in which the assistance given is direct and usually most effective. This is the counseling service. It is in counseling that the principles and philosophy of guidance are applied in their fullest sense. To summarize, the guidance function includeslall efforts to assist students in a more complete understand- ing of themselves, an understanding which will bring about wise decisions and choices on their part. , -34- 1- - - 1--1--v Y.. -- ,gn -A-3--N--M - -A . 5-...-.....,.. vu- V-:1:N:::rv'u g VA , ,, ,,,, M , ....

Publications of Chrisman include the bi-monthly paper the Envoy and the school yearbook the Gleam g each carries the spirit of Chrisman within its pages. This is the twenty-eighth year for the Envoy and a large staff has aided in its publication. To be recommended for Publications class, students must have at least an M-plus average in English. This, however, is not the only requirement: in- terest, capability of creative writing, tact and dependability are equally important. Students are taught the essentials of good writing and they' must strive to put that which they learn into practice. Each student has a definite share of the responsibility for the publishing of-the Envoy. The following persons, how- ever, assumed a larger portion of this responsibility, during the first semester: editor-infchief, Howard Gard: assistant editor- in-chief, -Marilyn Guytong first page editor, Nancy rotter, second page editor, Edna Steiner, third page editor, Joan Herman: fourth page editor, Dolores Toliver, For the second semester the staff was made larger: those appointed were: editor-in-chief, Marilyn Guyton, assistant editor-in-chief, Betty Rose Norris: first page editors, Mary Cooper, Lloyd Hurshmang second page editors, Betty Norris, Dolores Toliver, Virginia Smith: third page editors, Barbara Weaver, Mary Sue Brewer, Harold Pearson, fourth page editor, Phyllis Ross and Jimmie Booker. The Envoy is under the able direction of Miss Sarah Ellen Campbell. - Another phase of publication work at Chrisman is the production of the GIeam. Various staffs take over the responsi- bility of publishing the GIeam. f 'The literary staff, under the supervision of Miss Verda Riller, writes the articles about the organization and activities o C risman. The business and advertising staff, under the direction of Miss Ellis Clement, collects Lmoney -from subscriptions, issues receipts and keeps account of the money obtained by the sale of yearbooks. The advertising section of the staff procures advertising from various business establishments. n The layout staff of the Gleam , under the direction of Miss Campbell, planssthe book, choosing the theme and color. This staff also mounts the pictures and ollots the space for the art work, which is directed by Miss Nell Sampson. The typing staff chosen for speed and accuracy and directed by Miss Marie Hard, is the last of the several staffs. This staff types the copy in its final form for the printer. Thus each staff member in his own way contributes essential work to the publication of the C-iiecmf' The work of publishing the GIeam and Envoy provides good training in special fields of literary endeavor and provides the school with a permanent record of the year's activities. -35- . - - ,,, .L , .. . . - .'.:-11:-arfn-in..

Girls 'Chorus The girls' chorus, consisting of about fifty girls, has had a very enjoyable year under the very capable di- rection of Miss Jessie Smith. - The girls have given a number of public performances including the Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter assemblies. They have also sung on the Parent-Teacher program and for several churches. On April the twenty-seventh they took part in the spring concert, singing two numbers alone and joining with the mixed choruses from Junior High in two numbers. The chorus has class every day at the third period and each person receives one-half unit of credit for one year's work. , During the school year, Miss Smith has acquired some new records for the record library, including albums by the First Piano Quartet, Irish songs by James Melton, and duets played by Jose and Amparo lturbi. The records are one of the added pleasures to the study of music appreciation, which we enjoy along with singing. ' Mixed Chorus One of the types of vocal music at William Chrisman, directed by Miss Jessie Smith, is mixed chorus. This year there were three classes, totaling one hundred and sixty members. These choral groups each year are invited to sing at various churches in the community. This year they sang at the First Baptist Church, the'First Methodist Church, The .Liberty Street and Engnch hi-llll Latter Day Saints Churches, and The Waldo Baptist Church. The music is enjoyed so much by these c urc congrega- tions that the chorus is invited to return year after year. Vocal music for the Thanksgiving assembly was provided by the mixed chorusg and again for the Christ- mas assembly. For the spring concert, which was in the Memorial Building on April the twenty-seventh, the mixed chorus sang two numbers alone and two with the girls' chorus and the choruses from the junior high school. The chorus classes learned many different types of songs. Some were religious numbGfS, SUCl1 QS Hin Art Thou g semi-classical, for example, The italian Street Song , semi-popular, such as June ls Bustin Out Over g and novelty songs such as Skip to My Lou, Two outstanding soprano vocalists this year were Kathryn Hunt, and Ann Montague. Miss Smith's able direction helped the students to develop their musical abilities. A lot of hard work was put into learning the songs, but it was pleasant work with satisfying results. ...- , , .. f ,rg r-In-. .nm.,-.n-1.-..-...-...:.:.w:.:'.f.i.xv.-uiiiiiig...gLT,:.'-1.:sz:.-r.:f,1waAQQ..QfJQ.QiLELQi-EiJIf2-.JQIAEISZ11'-U2f::::1.rQf:: lv -will 'Qi .JJ If-S5915 .EFI ,PTI '-I '-:::::::-+11 Q-:wvaa-Umm-2: -- 1:'f:7: '1mvwmw:L::x:z:5Nw T: ...shenn-.nu-:1.t- '-f:T.....---...r...

The William Chrisman orchestra received a new but quite qualified leader, who is the music director for the Independence schools. Mr. Arthur Harrell won the hearts ot his students with his understanding. With just a few players of last year, he has built an orchestra of quite a good size, which next year will be even larger. The goal of the orchestra is to have over one hundred players. The school has purchased some new instruments and students have already started practice on them. The orchestra did not fill quite so many engagements as did the band, but the members were kept busy. They played at an assembly here at Chrisman two at iunior high at the Junior High Nights Out Program, the speech play, the junior play, the All School Music Festival, the Elementary School Exhibit and the senior sermon Both groups have done laudable work this year and are to be commended for their service.

The Chrisman debaters participated in more than six tournaments. They began the season at Topeka where, due to an error, they were elim- inated from the semiefinals. They went then to Warrensburg and the district tournament, where they won first place, becoming eligible to participate in the state finals, April 8. William Chrisman is the only school which has won the state championship two years in suc- cession. This team was composed of'Marian Robinson, Charles Welch, Marilyn Miller and John Holmes. Chrisman teams were also represented at the National Forensic League contest in St. Louis, Wyandotte and North Kansas City tournaments. During December,4William Chrisman sponsored an invitational tournament with eleven schools participating. Much of the credit for the splendid work ,of the debate squad must be given to Miss Margaret Meredith, their capable and helpful sponsor. -94- .......,.....

Yingling in l9l7, and was the first school in Missouri to become affiliated with the na- tional parent-teacher organization. The five objectives of the Parent-Teacher Association are CH To promote the welfare of the chi'ld and youth in the home, school, church, and community, C25 To raise the stand- ard of home life, C37 To secure adequate laws for the care and protection of the child and youth, C41 To bring into closer relationship the home and the school, that the-Parent-Teach- er Association may co-operate intelligently in the training of the child, C55 To developtbe- tween the educators and the general public such united efforts as will secure the highest advantages in physical, mental, social, and spiritual education. This year, as always, the William Chrisman Parent-Teacher group has had a great deal to do with the success of our school. It has sponsored numerous activities, furthering the friendly relationship between students and the association. Among these were the open house at the September meeting, where parents had the opportunity to meet their children's teachers, the sponsoring of the Saturday night teen-town sessions, and the ,planning and financing of the senior dance. A new project this year was the entertaining of the faculty at various luncheon execu- tive meetings. About ten teachers were served at each meeting. This plan proved to be a big success and the association hopes to continue it next year. The organization also pur- chases some useful article for the school each year. This year the decision has not yet been reached as to just what that article will be. The money for this project has been obtained, however, by the sale of refreshments at the January 27th basketball game. The officers, who quite capably filled their positions, were president, Mrs. Henry Hif- ner, vice-president, Mrs. Frank Williams, recording secretary, Mrs. Chester Burnham, corre- sponding secretary, Mrs. G. W. Pollard, treasurer, Mrs. K. B. Gibson, historian, Mrs. Roy Wyatt, and auditor, Mr. Ray Pearce. ' 0 Presidents Attending the Foun4der's Day Program - SEATED: Mrs. Robert H.

After much research during the year of i940 regarding the purpose, functioning, and organiza- tion of such a student group, the Student Council came into being in l94l, electing its first officers in January of that year. The first council meeting was held a few days sub- sequent, with Miss Anne Stewart, under whose guidance the formation of the council had taken place, and Mr. O. L. Athey as sponsors. The purpose of the council as stated in the constitution is to provide an opportunity for the development of good citizenship and intelligent leaders, to promote closer relationsubetween the faculty and the students . . ,. to help improve school conditions by increasing school spirit and scholarship, and to serve as an advisory body to the students. lln order to carry out these purposes, five commit- tees have been formed, each with a faculty sponsor. Mr. Gregory Lefever is chairman of the group of five sponsors. COMMITTEES At the beginning of each semester the various home rooms elect a representative to the Student Council. These representatives are then assigned to one of the committees. One of the most numerous of these is the Assembly Committee. The committeemen and their sponsor, Miss Berneta Sherman, arrange for the assembly programs which are regu- larly scheduled for alternate weeks throughout the year. When, as is often the case, special assemblies are advisable or necessary, the committee makes the requisite plans for them also. , The Honors and Awards Committee, also comprising a rather large group, has charge of determining the point system governing the acquisition of activity -points and of awarding certificates to seniors on the basis of the school activities in which each has engaged dur- ing his years at Chrisman. This committee, with Miss Jessis Page as sponsor, awards the activity certificates at the last assembly of the year and is largely responsible for the suc- cess of one of the most memorable assemblies of the school year. The social committee, sponsored by Miss Nelvada Surbaugh, plans for the all-school social functions of the year and is a committee whose work is enjoyed by every one enrolled inlChrisman. The Elections and Charters Committee, of which Miss Ethel Waitman is sponsor, con- ducts the bi-annual elections of student council officers and approves the charters of stu- dent organizations. Although the duties of the committee are intermittent, they are none the less important and the work of this group is always well done. The Finance Committee, under the supervision of Miss Mary Kennedy, raises and keeps account of the money which finances the activities of the council. This committee has the unusual distinction of being a group relatively unworried by money problems. The sale of pencils, begun largely as a convenience to students, brings in a sum sufficient to cover the Council's expenses. Last year there were sufficient funds also to buy an illumined bulletin board for the main corridor. 1 OFFVICERS The offices in the Student Council are much coveted positions, and campaigning at elec-- tion time quite vigorous. Five officers are elected each semester to perform the usual functions of president, vice-president, secretary, treasurer, and parliamentarian. The wis- dom of the student body in choosing persons for these offices has been, on the whole, little questioned, a fact we state with pride. l We believe that our Student Council provides opportunity for the practice of demo- cratic principles and the development of leadership and good citizenship traits. lt is our hope that it may function even more effectively in the years to come. -lO2- W c- W- - -'- -TT' T ' 7 . .. : '-'------ . - -0- . ...,.,,, , , V -, - jj Q -4h..'rAz:',.-:.:ggsg-7:1-37,31-V 2. ---wt g gg The Shakespearean Literary Society FIRST ROW: Tyra Phillips, Katherine Cannon, Zona Davidow, Marilyn Guyton, Glenna Ruth Adams, Dorothy Amos Juanita Helverson, Kathryn Hunt.

They stand for service to the school and community, loyalty to all christian ideals of fellowship, and scholarship in the sence of the highest attainment in all fields of endeavor. At each meeting a program is given on Shakespeare's life or work. Character sketches, selections from his plays, charades, andother forms of entertainment are presented by various members of the society. In addition to the appreciative study of Shakespeare, the club has a lighter side. Every year certain socials are held, such as the annual dance, the Mother's Tea, an assembly program, and the senior banquet. The Shakes also combine with the two other societies for the annual Shan dance. Mrs. Mary Learnard and Miss Roberta Rice are the sponsors. They have been co-sponsors for several years now and the girls feel that they play a great part in the advancement of the society. Officers for the first semester were Glenna Ruth Adams, president, Marilyn Guyton, vice-president, Dorothy Amos, secretary, Juanita Helverson, treasurer, Diane Dodsworth, reporter, and Venetta Abbott, parliamentarian. Second semester officers were Marilyn Guyton, president, Zona Davidow, vice-president, Katherine Cannon, secretary, Kathryn Hunt, treasurer, Patricia Scott, reporter, and Tyra Phillips, parliamentarian. Members of the Shakespearean Literary Society have been outstanding in scholarship and extra-curricular activities such as debate, dramatics, speech, girls' athletics, music, and art. A girl is required to maintain an M average in all subjects to be eligible for membership. All t to l'v u to the ideals of the organization of which they are a member: clean living, working ry ie p together to achieve success and a true spirit of friendship and co-operation throughout their undertakings Today and in the world of tomorrow. , . . -..--,, K H---...,,,, ,W ,-ff.3.'-w e . . .,... ., -..,:.:.:. - 1 . .. . .v ,,N.08:T::::: - - ., -. ,... ...,... ,.lT::.f.e.mm.e,a-f-.:f: -' -:-:::T..'::::':'-'F' Nautilus Literary Society FIRST ROW: Barbara Elledge Carlene West Betty Harshbarger Edna Steiner Beverly Harshbarger Mittie Scott Do- SECOND ROW: Mrs. Barker tsponsorl Ruth Zion Wynona Hayworth Jean Wilson Barbara Weeks Jacquelyn Moore Patricia Gibson Virginia Wright Shirley Tennis, Mrs. Brush isponsorj.

I I I I ' I , I The Nautilus Literary Society, Chrisman's oldest society of girls, was organized in l9l9. In that year, there were eleven charter members, now there are fifty members. The purpose of the society is best stated in the poem, The Chambered Nautilus by Oliver Wendell Holmes: Build thee more stately mansions. The colors are blue and white: Blue representing truth and white, purity. The club flower is the violet. This year, the members greatly enjoyed the formal dance which was held at Garrett Hall on February 5. The dance followed an unusual theme, the election and coronation of a Nautilus queen and two attendants. They were, queen, Edna Steiner, attendants, Carlene West and Beverly Harshbarger. On March 2 the society held the annual Mother's Tea, on which occasion each member's mother was introduced. Each year at this time,-the club sponsors a literary contest and the winning selections are read at the tea. Thoseewinning in poetry were Edna Steiner, first place and Betty Harshbarger, second place. The winning prose selection was written by Shirley Rondomanski. This year, as always, the tea was greatly enjoyed by all girls and mothers. A Christmas party was held at Dolores Toliver's 'home after a visit to the home of an adopted family. Each girl presented to this family a gift of food or clothing and was rewarded by the appreciative response of each member of the family. , . On April I, the Nautilus Society presented an assembly program. The theme of the program was of hill-- billy life and was appreciated by all students. ' At the end of each year, the sophomore and junior members of the club hold a banquet with the senior members as guests. This year's senior banquet will lang be remembered by the retiring upperclassmen. Officers for the first and second semester respectively were president, Edna Steiner, Beverly Harshbarger, vice-president, Betty Harshbarger, Mittie Scott, secretary, Carlene West, Dolores Toliver, treasurer, Barbara Elledge, Barbara Gibson, reporter, Mittie Scott, Virginia Wright, historian, Beverly Eads, Virginia Wright, and parliamentarian, Dolores Toliver, Bonnie Wells. The girls this year were very fortunate in having Mrs. Lucille Barker and Mrs. Florence Brush as their sponsors, the latter being a new co-sponsor of the society. 0 As-You-Lilce-Il: Dramatic Club Sharing honors in Chrisman activities is the As-you-Like-It Dramatic Club, originated in l92O for the pur- pose of developing dramatic art. The maximum membership for the club is fifty girls. These are chosen on the basis of scholarship, activity, and service. The past year has proved a very industrious year for the As-You's . Among their activities was the Father and Daughter banquet held December 4. The annual Christmas dance was held at Drexel Hall, Decem- ber 27. A book review, a new activity for the year, was given by Mr. L. W. Harper, father of one of the girls. The gifts which are made to the children in Mercy Hospital each year are a sincere offering of As-You's . In the spring the activities of the club are the Mother and Daughter tea and the senior banquet, one of the dear- est memories for the senior girls. Formal and informal initiations of new'members are held twice a year. The club colors are black and gold, the flower is the chrysanthemum, and the mascot is the owl, the traditional symbol of wisdom. Officers, for the year were, respectively, president, Patricia Roney, Beverly Myers, vice-president, Barbara Weaver, Joan Herman, secretary, Betty Campbell, Shirley Towers, treasurer, Beverly Myers, Marilyn Seroy' parliamentarian, Martha Harper, Carolyn Cunningham, historian, Margaret Holman, Mary Sue Brewer' reporter' Barbara Allen, Marilyn Miller.

As this year of i948-49 comes to a close, members of the Art Club can look back upon it as another successful year. , This club was founded in i932 by a group of art students interested in improving their appreciation, knowledge, and skill. Miss Nell Sampson, who is the present sponsor, was also the sponsor at that time. The club has been fortunate to have such a capable and helpful sponsor through all its years. The students elected to guide the club this year were, first and second semesters respectively: president, Gerald McCollum, Stanley Leonard, vice-president, Margaret McKevit, Janice Holmes, secretary, Ruth Ward, Patricia Leek, treasurer, Maureen Kelley, Tyra Phillips, reporter, none first semester and Margaret McKevit, second semester. The outstanding social event of the year was the annual Christmas party held in the Art Room. Charades of Christmas carols were presented. Special guests present included Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Stinson, Mr. and Mrs. L. G. Keith, Mr. Gregory Lefever, Miss Margaret Meredith, Miss Ellen Campbell, Mrs. Florence Brush, and Mr. W. A. Berg. A lovely spring picnic was held in May. This was a lot of fun for all those that participated. ln the National Scholastic Art Contest, the regional contest of which was held at Emery Bird Thayer's of Kansas City, several Chrisman art students received recognition. Frank Jennings, Patricia Leek, and John Wilkinson all received the merit rating on their exhibits, Evelyn Bailey won two gold keys on her fashions exhibits. Evelyn's entries were sent to the national exhibit. George Dooley was the counselor for Chrisman at the regional exhibit this year. A new plan for earning points was introduced to the club this year.. The members will work to earn enough points for a letter or bar. These points may be earned by attending meetings, holding an office, go- ing on field trips, and preparing exhibits. As this idea is rather new, it is hard to tell how successful it will be. lt is hoped that it will be as successful as the many other projects of the club. Various sketching trips were enjoyed by the members this year. The pictures made were judged and the best ones exhibited from week to week on the school bulletin board. 'The Art Club offers a wonderful opportunity to those who are interested in art and who might some day make it their life's work. J COMMERCIAL CLUB Today the world of business and industry offers thousands of jobs to the workers who are trained to fill them. These jobs offer many attractive features among which are good pay, advancement, and employment in pleasant surroundings. To enable young people to prepare themselves to fill these jobs, the schools of our country offer numerous courses in commercial subjects and promote the formation of clubs which ,will help prospective job-seekers in their preparation. Such a club is the Commercial Club of William Chrisman. Club programs are so planned as to provide opportunities for contact with the business world which can not be obtained through regular class work. These contacts include speakers and trips to the offices of various business firms. But since work and play should be mixed in proper proportion, the club's activities include purely social gatherings. Parties were held during the Halloween and the Christmas season. ln keeping with the real spirit of Christmas the club adopted a needy family in order that the season might be made a merry one for the household. The school year has been an enjoyable one. An interested membership, responsible officers, and capable sponsors have helped to make the year so pleasant and the club so helpful to the prospective applicants in the world of business. - Miss Thelma Myers and Miss Jessie Page have sponsored the club. The officers are as follows: president, Shirley Marx, Gerald McCollum, vice-president, Mary Cooper, James Booker, secretary, Gerald McCollum, Jean Wilson, treasurer, Wynona Hayworth, Bonnie' Wells, reporter, Katherine Cannon, Mary Cooper.

The Future Homemakers club is an organization having for its purpose the training of high school girls in the art of homebuilding. This purpose is well expressed in the creed of the Club which states, We'are the builders of homes. Homes for America's future. .Homes where living will be the expression of everything that is good and fair. Homes where truth and love and security and faith will be realities, not dreams. The activities of the club are intended as a supplement to the class work which is conducted in thelhome economics courses, Study here, of course, includes instruction in cooking and sewing. What husband is .not proud of the wife who is a culinary artist and who is so skilled with her needle that his purse is not d-rained constantly of its contents? Training in the planning and preparing of meals, in the making and selecting of wearing apparel, and in the decorating and furnishing of the living quarters is all a part of the work of the club. Membership in the club is open to all girls who are enrolled in either a foods or a clothing class and who receive a majority vote of the club members themselves. The very capable sponsors of the homemakers group this year are Miss Hazel Johnson and Miss Nelvada Surbaugh. The officers for the year are as follows: president, Patricia Roney, vice-president, Beverly Myers, secretary, Lucille McCormick, treasurer, Margaret Holman, historian, Marilyn Seroy, reporter, Lois Hield. O FUTURE TEACHERS ln January of this year William Chrisman was fortunate in securing a unit of the Future Teachers of America, making the unit in our school the sixth one formed in the state of Missouri. The Future Teachers of America was first organized in the year T937 under the leadership of the Na- tional Education Association. This very worth while club was planned for the purpose of encouraging high school people who are interested in any of the many fields of teaching. Through their meetings the members learn of training required and the expectations that people interested in teaching must fulfill. Mrs. Florence Brush, who has been interested in forming such an organization for the past two years, is the able and cooperative sponsor of the twenty-five people who form the club. This particular unit which was formed in William Chrisman was named the J. N. Hanthorn Unit, so called because Mr. Hanthorn has been so prominent as a leader in education in Independence and a former principal of the high school. At various meetings, the group has been addressed by persons who are interested in education, among these, Superintendent L. G. Keith and Dr. Floyd Yale. These men spoke on the requirements of a teacher, the essential college training, and what the school and community expect from their teachers. When guest speakers are not present at the meetings, the members themselves conduct various discussions concerning the colleges or universities they plan to attend, along with the field ,of teaching they intend to enter. The officers of the club are: president, Edna Steiner, vice- president, Zenos Booker, secretary, Barbara Gibson, treasurer, Ellen Easter. This organization in Chrisman will make it possible for all students who have a desire to know more about the teaching profession to learn through the group's discussions. Such an organization will encourage people to enter teaching. This club is indeed a welcome addition to the throng of Chrisman's organizations. lt has been received with appreciation and surely will be a success.

Among the unsung heroes at William Chrisman are the girls who compose the Library Club. These girls give up their own study periods in order to assist in the work of checking and shelving of the many books that cross the library counter each day, and in performing the many duties relative to library work. The club consists of thirteen girls, two serving during each of the six periods into which the school day is divided and the shorter perids before and after school. Membership in the club is, of course, limited to these workers, who receive no other compensation for their serv- ices than certain activity points, a pin, the knowledge that they are giving a splendid service to their school, and the pleasure that comes from association with books. Such prac- tical phases of library work as the care and repair of books, the Dewey system of book classi- fication, and shelving are points upon which the girls receive early instruction. Much of this instruction is given at the regular meetings of the club, which are held at noon on the sec- ond and fourth Tuesday of each month. A very pleasant feature of the purely social ac- tivity of the club was a pot luck dinner and picture show when the club members were guests of Mrs. Mayme Piper, librarian and club sponsor. At Christmas time, a party was held at thehome of Darlene Waldridge. Here the club-members enjoyed a bountiful covered-dish dinner and a gift exchange. The officers for the year were as follows: president, Doris Green and Constance Griffin, vice-president, Margie Kreeger and Margaret Moore, secretary, Martisha Potter and Mary Lee Blackburn, reporter, Colleen Johnson anti Margaret Moore. ' For a library whose facilities are made easily accessible we express our thanks to the corps of courteous dependable girls who compose the Library Club and their quiet and ef- M Club I The M Club of William Chrisman was organized in I925 by Miss Etta McAllister, physical education instructor. The purpose of this club is to promote better sportsmanship and a greater interest in girls' athletics. To become a member of the club, a girl must earn IOOO points in athletics. These points are based on scholarship, athletic ability, leadership, health, sportsmanship, and service to the school. She must also pass a physical examination, and the initiation of the club before she is eligible to receive a blue M which is the Missouri women's athletic letter. ' The next goal of a member is to earn a super M which is a small gold letter. This is received after 500 additional points are earned. Only four girls have earned their super M's's this year. They are Leora Allred, Margaret Hammond, Martha Harper, and Bev- erly Eads. The other members of the club who hold their letter are Shirley Marx, Beverly Harshbarger, and Betty Harshbarger, At the end of a six-weeks period, the M Club team plays the winner of the tourna- ment held in the gym classes. The gym class teams are composed of members from the regular physical education classes, and the tournament is in the particular sport which the classes have studied for the six-weeks period. The three sports in which the tournaments are held each semester are baseball, volleyball, and basketball. The M Club also holds sports events of their own. This year, the girls enjoyed swimming, bowling, and roller-skating parties, in addition to the yearly picnic. Miss Betty Ann Street, girls' physical education instructor, is the sponsor of the club. For her capable work and her untiring interest, the members are very grateful. Officers for the two semesters were as follows: president, Beverly Eads, Jean Wilson, vice-president, Jean Wilson, Leora Allred, secretary, Bonnie Wells, Marjorie Fronkier, treasurer, Wynona Hayworth, Patricia Gibson, reporter, Betty Harshbarger, Margaret Hammond. ficient sponsor, Mrs. Piper.

At every basketball and football game, you will see a group of girls, dressed in brightly-colored uniforms and yelling for all they're worth. They represent the Girls' Pep Club of William Chrisman, a new organization at Chrisman this year. Last fall, after careful consideration and untiring effort on the part of a group of girls, a charter for the Pep Club was presented to the Student Council and was accepted. Then came election of officers and cheer leaders. Filling the official positions for the first semester were president, Jalena Wilson, vice-president, Elizabeth Williams, secretary, Betty Jo Foreman, treasurer, Tyra Phillips, and reporter, Mary Lund. Under the capable leadership of these officers and the club sponsors, Miss Betty Ann Street and Miss Roberta Rice, the Pep Club became an active organization at Chrisman. Strict requirements were set up for membership so that only girls who really were full of school spirit could belong. Soon, a section at all games was filled with members of the Pep Club, dressed uniformly in royal blue skirts, white blouses, and Chrisman sweaters. Six cheerleaders, attired in royal blue jumpers and gold blouses, led them in school yells. These cheerleaders gave a lot of time and effort to their job, and deserve much credit for the success of the Pep Club. They were sophomores, Joyce Lidke, Jeanne Coulter, juniors, Mescal Fisher, Diane Dodsworth, seniors, Shirley Marx, and Mary Lou Edmonds. The club activities of the year included a pep rally before the home-coming game, the presentation of drills at basketball games, and a school assembly. A skit entitled, The Spirit of .William Chrisman was pre- sented to the assembly. lt was very successful in encouraging the student body to exert more school spirit 'and pep at basketball and football games. The drills, also, were executed in a very skillful manner and added to the enjoyment of the games. The second semester brought forth a new slate of officers, who very capably carried on the work of their predecessors. Those who served were president, Maureen Kelley, vice-president, Patricia Scott: secretary, Janice Holmes, treasurer, Gwen Kimball, and reporter, Jo Ann Ebeling. The Girls' Pep Club has made a very good impression in its first year of existence, accomplishing its goals with outstanding success.

The Spanish Club, with a present membership of one hundred and forty-four is the largest organization in William Chrisman High' School. This membership has gradually increased since the club was founded twenty- seven years ago by Miss Amelia Palmer. It is now undcr the capable leadership of Mrs. Florence Brush. The aim of the club is to acquaint the students with Spanish life, customs, and language, by activities which cannot be included in the crowded Spanish curriculum. This group has completed many successful projects this year but probably the finest accomplishment, at least for the Spanish students, was the sketch contest. This was held to find three students capable of painting murals on the walls of the club classroom. The sketches had to be representative of Spanish life. Donna Briggs Juanita Helverson, and Tyra Phillips were selected for this task. The scenes-an adobe mission set among palm trees with mountains in the background, a Spanish boy and a Spanish lady-are excellent testi- monials of their fine ability. Among other achievements the Spanish Club put on an excellent assembly and two radio programs. A Christmas, Spanish carols were sung in the halls as is the annual custom. The organization also held a square dance which was enjoyed by all who attended. Probably the most outstanding social event was the banquet held at the Guadalupe Center in Kansas City. The Spanish Club boasts of having a twelve piece orchestra, a boys quartet a string trio, and a double duet. The members of the orchestra are Mildred Gibler, Colleen Johnson, Joan Schowengerdt, violins' Carol Freeman cello' Alberta Wyatt and Wayne Libby basses' Reta Peck flute' Marilyn Dysart and William Propst, clarinets' Stanley Leonard drums' Zenos Booker, maracas' Peggy Holman, piano.

A thing which the club members enjoy very much is the Bible quizzes which are held every four weeks. The junior college and a number of high schools in Greater Kansas City and surrounding territories participate in these meetings that sharpen Bible knowledge. At the end of all these quizzes, the student with the highest score is rewarded by a trip to the Youth for Christ Camp at Wenona Lake, Indiana. Last year Janet Clark made the winning score. A Y. OQB. is an organization for religious instruction in the art of Christian living, which is non-doctrinal and non-sectarian. There is a great deal to be gained by attending these meetings. Through Y. O. B. we can renew our purpose to follow Christ's injunction, Keep my commandments, and the teachings of the Apostle Paul in l Corinthians, the thirteenth chapter, to love our fellow man: Love suffereth long and is kind: love envieth not, love vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up. Love seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil. Love beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, and endureth all things. The goal for all Y. O. B. organizations is winning youth for Christ. 'ln this respect Chrisman has a high standard. Again this year, the club gave an assembly program as it has done in formersyears. lt has also pre- sented a program at the local radio station. The officers who have served faithfully and capably during first and second semesters respectively were as follows: president, Janet Clark, Bill Sage, vice-president, Donna Trentham, Margaret Moore, secretary-treas- urer, Margaret Moore, Janice Jipsen, reporter, Don DeMonbrun, Donna Trethamg' pianist, Don Elkins Cboth semesterslj song leader, Janet Clark. Miss Oneida Beeman, who is sponsor of the group, is very helpful in assisting the students to carry out their wishes. F SCIENCE CLUB The science club was organized in i942 by Miss Nora Witthar, chemistry instructor, and Miss Ellis Clement, physics teacher. ln I944, the biological field was added to the club by Miss Oneida Beeman and Miss Gladys Evans, biology teachers. Today, the science club boasts a membership of sixty-one and is one of the most active clubs in William Chrisman. Many interesting field trips and speakers added to the active program of the club. Among .these-trips was a week-end trip through Southwestern Missouri on which club members visited chemical plants, a radio station, a fish hatchery, and Bagnell Dam. The Science Club also sponsored two very interesting assemblies presented by the General Motors Corporation and Standard Oil. Every year the club ,offers a scholarship to the most deserving student in the field of science. The club also sponsors the Westinghouse Science Talent Search contest which is open to any student tha.t wishes to com- pete. This year the club was very proud of the fact that a member, Ellen Easter, received honorable mention in this contest. The competition was very keen, so we have every reason to be proud of Ellen. The officers, who very capably filled their respective offices, were president: Jerry Lynch, first semester, Jerry Custead, second semester: vice-president: Charles Church, first semester, John Carey, second semester: secretary: Barbara Allen, first semester, Betty Harshbarger, second semester: treasurer: Ellen Easter, first se- mester, Gene Allen, second semester: and reporter: Jay Boos, first semester, Carlene West, second semester. Under the expert guidance of our four sponsors, Miss Witthar, Miss Clement, Miss Beeman, and Miss Evans, we' feel that the Science Club has been a great success this year and has contributed much to furthering the cause of science.

The William Chrisman chapter of the National Art Honor Society was organized in 1937. ln order to be eligible for membership, an art student must have maintained an S average in art with an M average in all other subjects and no failures. He must arrange an exhibit of ten or more pieces of his own work, using four or more media, for a board of Judges. Good character is another requirement for membership. The cultivation of a deeper appreciation of beauty, a broader knowledge of art and the development of increased skills in art, also, nobility of character, sincerity of purpose, and love of truth are the aims of this organization. The members strive to create beauty in their thoughts, their words, and the products of their hands. Forty-four students prepared exhibits for the contest which occurred on April 25. The judges were Kansas City art instructors. Eleven third year students, eighteen second year students, and fifteen first year students competed. The important event for the organization was the formal initiation held on May 6. The ceremony was highlighted by the lighting of the individual candles and the pledge given in unison by all members. Following the induction ceremony, the parents and friends of the club members were invited to the art rooms to view the individual exhibits of the members. Former members of the society were Ruth Ward, Ann Ellington, Juanita Helverson, Martha Harper, Joan Schowengerdt, Beverly Eads, Betty Johnson, Ina Mae McClure, Patricia Gibson, Phyllis Davis, Tyra Phillips, Barbara Elledge, Gloria Shadel, glory Jane Julian, Ruth Harlan, George Dooley, Maureen Kelley, Joan Herman, Jean Riggins, Frank Jennings, and Evelyn an ey. 1 Besides the old members, those competing for the first time this year were Kathy Perkins, Janice Holmes, Betty Johnson, -B-Everly Evers, Constance Griffin, Vern Johnson, Patricia Leek, Arvilla Neef, Jerry Ann Rumbo, Carol Swaney, and Leona ompson. Miss Nell Sampson and Miss Margaret Meredith were the very capable sponsors for the past year. -1 I8- Hfv- 4'-ii., F' National ' Forensic League --s-,,,.. LMI. l . ., ' Q.

Member- ship in the society is a mark of real distincton and merit, for selection is bosed upon scholastic attainment and upon character. Both juniors and seniors may be elected to the society, but standards are somewhat higher for juniors. Each school holding a National Honor Society charter is permitted to select fifteen per cent of the membership of the graduating class, provided the candidates rank in the upper one-third of their class scholastic- ally. In the selectionof juniors the membership is limited to five per cent of the class provided they rank in the upper ten per ceritnscholastically. A finol judging based on such character traits as dependability, co- operativeness, courtesy, leadership, and service is made by vote of the faculty. The work of the society is carried on by seniors who were elected in their junior year, since selection of new members is an event occurring late in the current year. Regular meetings of the members are held at which suchnmatters as society organization and plans for college preparation are discussed. Informal social gatherings provide recreational opportunities. Representative of these was the chili supper for society members and their guests. The following students corried on the work of the society this yeor: Venetto Abbott, David Bates, lva Jean Brightwell, Janet Clark, George Dooley, Ellen Ecister, i-loward Gard, Betty Harshbarger, Beverly Harsh- barger, Lloyd Hurshman, Jerry Lynch, Beverly Myers, Patricia Roney, Joan Schowengerdt, Marilyn Seroy, Noncy Trotter, Ruth Ward, Charles Welch. Charles Welch was chosen president, and Betty Harshborger secretary. ln previous years it has been customary for future members to be notified of their election a few days before the ,Honor Society Assembly. This year the names of members-elect were unannounced until the time of the assembly, which was held on April 7 at the Memorial Auditorium. At this time the election of eighteen juniors and thirty seniors was announced. ln a well-planned program, the new members repeoted the society pledge and received their membership badges. Deon Norman N. Royall of the University of Kansas City was guest speaker for the occasion. The newly elected juniors were as follows: Barbara Allen, Beverly Barnhardt, Margaret Crick, Carolee Clements, Zona Dovidow, Diane Dodsworth, Mildred Gibler, Ruth Harlan, Mortha Harper, Sylvio Hunt, Maureen Kelley, Patricia Melton, Marilyn Miller, Ann Montague, Barbora Petre, Tyra Phillips, Bcirbora Ramsey, Marion Robinson. - The seniors elected were as follows: Glenna Ruth Adams, Dorothy Amos, Quinn Atchley, Zenos Booker, Williom Bundschu, Katherine Cannon, John Carey, Chorles Church, Mary Cooper, Jerry Custead, Marilyn Dysart, Marilyn Guyton, Ray Harrell, Lewis Herfordt, Joon Herman, Margaret Holman, Mary Jane Julian, Floyd Kemp, Donald Landfried, Stanley Leonard, Shirley Marx, Gerald McCollum, Reta Peck, Gloria Renick, Kenneth Sim- mons, Edna Steiner, Dolores Toliver, Barbara Weaver, Corlene West, Alberto. Wyatt. The activities of the society, so long under the sponsorship of Miss Mabel Potter who retired two yecirs ago, are now ably carried on by Mr. Gregory Lefever. Chrisrnanites feel that membership in the National Honor Society is one of the highest honors that a student may attain.

Unfortunately, however, it is not possible for everyone to get into this society. Only those with these requirements may enter: The student must be either a junior or senior and must rank in the upper one-third ot his class in scholarship. He must have done superior work in some phase ot journalism such as writing, editing, or business management on the school paper or the yearbook. He is then recommended by the supervisor under whom he has worked on such publications and finally approved by the executive secretary ot the society. As a member ot the Quill and Scroll, one pays a membership tee which entitles him to the organization's emblem, a gold pin, and a year's subscription to the QUILL AND SCROLL. These who were accepted tor membership as juniors last year are Helen Johnson, Martisha Potter, Marilyn Guyton, Mary Jane Julian, Alberta Wyatt, Floyd Kemp, Dolores Toliver, Barbara Weaver, Patricia Roney, and Margie Kreeger. --l 22- -- V .-28--1-., mul, , , Y ational Thespian Qrahrrlatic Honor Society A .. 1 , --L ft- ., 1 xl KJ. ir' I G I I ix Q '.:.

The National Rifle Association acts for the shooting sport in much the same way the Amateur Athletic Union CAAUJ does with other sports. lt sets the rules, maintains records, operates national shooting programs and championship events. Organized in l87l, the NRA is one of the oldest and strongest sportsman's organizations in this country. lt is a non-profit, non-sectarian, and non-political membership corporation. The William Chrisman Rifle Club is a member of the Junior Program of the National Rifle Association. The Junior Program has been developed to bring out those qualities of sportsmanship, fair play, manliness, self-control, and cooperation so essential to success in life. Above all else, its training includes the safe handling of firearms. The NRA awards medals and bars for fifteen different stages of firing. This year six members have attained the highest decoration, the Distinguished Rifleman Award. This award is given in the form ofa medal, lapel pin, brassard, diploma, public recognition in the American Riflemen magazine, free membership in the senior NRA and a year's sub- scription to the American Riflemen. The six members who received this award are Louis Wells, Frank Jennings, George Lund, Jerry- Custead, J. T. Dooley, Carlin Talcott. James Hedrick has attained the Expert Medal. 4 - The officers for the Musketeers this year are Louis Wells, president, Carlin Talcott, vice- president, George Lund, secretary and treasurer.
