At a War-Torn World We Dedicate This Book to Alliance Students and Graduates in Their Country's Service

65747

We, the January and June classes of '43, in this year of dying defeat and flickering victory, when the flame of hope and love is fight­ ing for new breath, do dedicate this book and these efforts to all the fighting forces in the world's far-flung battlefields: to the doughboy who swelters in the desert, or freezes in the far north, to the boy who plunges through tropical jungles, who sails the oceans, above or underneath, to the eagle who flies to free the skies, to the warrior nurses who follow the men into danger and to the women at home who are relieving others for active duty.

We re-dedicate ourselves, as citizens of the future, to see that faith, love and tolerance are not again imperiled by brute force and that these who have died, and those who are yet to die, shall not have died in vain.

To our kind benefactors, patrons, patronesses, administrators, advisers, teachers and friends who have seen us through our trying years, who have pointed out the true path, who have educated us to our love of freedom and independence, we, who are now voyagers on the sea of life, extend our humblest thanks.

As for gathering activity sheets for the June class which is well scattered at various colleges and universities nearby—that was a headache in itself. Meantime Rena Alfani and Livia Marini hustled absent-minded teachers to get pictures taken before the deadline, while "shutter-birds" James Hobbins and Eddie Cross followed director "Whit" about looking for likely subject matter. Miss Sites had hoards of typists slaving over dozens of unintelligible scripts, 12A Chronicle Staff (June) out of which came neat, catalogued facts to be re-messed by the editorial printer's directions. Of course the day Dimit took club pictures was pleasant, especially when so- honored students interrupted lessons to say: 'Flat Foot Floogie' pictures taken on stage immediately!" Thus we have a brief glimpse of "Trouble Afoot" which does not mention nearly all the helping hands and excludes the invaluable advice and work of the Misses McKibben, Jane and Mary Dilley.

A Book With Pictures About the School These Men Finance Our School Destinies

BOARD OF EDUCATION Tax allotment, building improvement, curriculum changes, teachers' salaries, general community needs, and state requirements are just a few of the problems which cause board members to meet and be concerned about schools. They are the buffer between community desires and educational re­ sults. This year, with a Victory Corps to approve, rationing to provide for, teachers' salaries to adjust to a living wage in wartime, defense and special "victory" subjects to sponsor, has provided additional need for decisions. Classes for those who need individual attention are an ever- present demand in times of war or peace. Teacher improvement through training and experience is always a major issue. The collection of a fed­ eral tax on athletics and on social functions must be a primary factor in establishing whether such programs should continue. Added to that, tire rationing makes athletics a serious consideration now. Yet boards know that an athletic program is an essential to the good health of its boys and girls. So it goes — every meeting a new battle to be fought and won, with Reading from left to right: Mr. Herbert WToolf (seated), Mr. Raymond Stuckey, decisions made with one goal in view — progress toward better things for Mr. James Russell, Mr. Kermit Donaldson, Mr. Paul Cope, and Mr. Harvey Ball.

School life is a time of relative calm and peaceful sailing, as one grad­ uates and looks back upon it, as compared with the rest of life. Why did things go so smoothly ? Who made the decisions ? Upon whose shoulders did the responsibility rest? The principal's and the school advisory com­ mittee. When a general high school meeting is called there are sixty-three members to attend. That means at least sixty-three opinions, ideas, and methods. Any action by such a group requires time, discussion, com­ promise. To facilitate action, an advisory committee is partially appointed, partially elected, at each semester's beginning. The committee meets once each month with the principal to decide matters which affect the whole school. Their decisions and suggestions will then be presented to the whole group in general meeting, but in matters requiring dispatch, the committee is empowered to act as the representative of the entire faculty.

Students entering this department are directed into one of three lines of development; salesmanship, bookkeeping, or stenography. Four se­ mesters of bookkeeping make possible a thorough background for office work; salesmanship advances to retailing; secretarial sciences culminate in office practice. Here the student with a practical flare often finds his life's work and Filing and use of office machines shown in Miss Baker's class. many a classical student takes away a valuable asset for college note-tak­ ing and theme-typing as well as a helpful skill for his later life. Today the commercial department trains helpers for Uncle Sam; salesmen and women to help the retailer who has lost workers to defense plants: stenographers and secretaries for the men doing the executive work of keeping war industry and civil production at peak capacity. From this department typists for the Red and Blue and Chronicle are selected. The Ration Board, Red Cross, Community Chest and other such organizations sometimes ask for assistance from the students of this de­ partment. These procedures provide practical experience for future busi­ ness activities. In the words of Miss Moses, department head, "The aim of our de­ partment is the thorough training of native abilities, as well as character and personality, so that students may be an asset in the business life of the community."

A very special duty falls upon the department of human relations to teach how people react to the stimuli of events and people. Here psychol­ ogy, the study of human reactions, and sociology, the study of man in his living habits, plus mental hygiene, the study of man, the normal and abnormal being, help prevent the abnormalities which cause fear and hate and conflict.

To quote directly from Miss Mary Dilley, chairman of the mathe­ matics department: "The aim of this department is to give students a usable knowledge of the fundamentals of mathematical reasoning while teaching them to work hard and to finish a task which has been started. We believe in work, sustained effort, accuracy, and final accomplishment." "We believe that mathematics can give to life beauty, pattern, sym­ metry, and grace. Unfortunately, today it must be used to speed the death of those who oppose the rights which we believe in. Today, we must apply mathematics to destruction as it helps in flying a bomber, direct­ ing the firing of a gun, and using a bombsight, or in the precision prepara­ tion of armaments. Today we study for warfare, but we never forget that tomorrow, the mathematics of destruction will design and produce the re­ built world/'

A physical education program properly organized is one of the most vital parts of school. Certain fundamental objectives must be set up. Miss Pettis and Mr. Hoppes agree on these: "Physical education provides opportunity to develop eye and hand coordination and mental control over muscle skill; it develops and maintains health; it teaches a sportsmanlike code of ethics; it gives opportunity for socializing contacts; it develops good leadership as well as the ability to follow; it provides recreative activities outside of school life in which both boys and girls may join, such as bowling." Today physical education is unusually desirable as both the army and industrial life demand physically fit people. Part of the Victory Corps or­ ganization is especially designed to promote such a fitness program.

In May, 1940, we held our first class meeting in 101. Miss Marian Elliott, our class patroness, presided, and a nominating committee was ap­ pointed. The first election was held at the next meeting. The persons elected were Earl Bard, president; Pat Auld, vice-president; Majel Ham­ mond, secretary; and Laura Cobb, treasurer. Our first class gathering was a picnic in June at Silver Park. At this gathering there were about forty boys and girls chaperoned by the Misses Elliott, Hendershot, and Moore. The next fall Miss Elliott left Alliance, and Miss Ruth Chisholm consented to become our patroness. Our next class gathering was held at the Y. M. C. A. We added to our treasury by having a bake sale and collecting dues. In the year 1941 Earl Bard was re-elected president; Beth McMinn as secretary; and Ray Aquilo was elected vice-president; the treasurer re­ mained the same throughout the four years. In the fall we sold pencils and 1941 Fall Varieties, tickets to make money. At the next meeting we chose our class colors which were maroon and golden-orange. Our class motto was "Forward ever, backward never." Beth McMinn was the general chairman of our prom which was held in January, 1942. The theme was "Promzapoppin'." It really popped with success! There were noisemakers, balloons, and streamers every place. While we were 12B's, Larry Castiglione took over the vice-presidency. In 12A Ray Aquilo became president, and Barbara Anderson became secretary. "Ever Since Eve" was chosen as our senior play in which Bertha Mae Bert, Robert Zink, and George Irwin starred under the direction of Miss Virginia Geddert. It was presented with great success December 9 in the auditorium. Then came the senior chapel with George Gwin as chairman. The senior play banquet in charge of Nan Twyman followed on January 19. The 11A class gave a prom in honor of the seniors on January 23. The next night was baccalaureate at which Rev. Frederick Drew was our speaker. The services were held at the First Methodist Church. Our senior banquet was held January 26 at the Woman's Club with Robert Zink as chairman. We were given our diplomas at commencement on January 28. Mr. Kenneth C. Ray gave the commencement address. Bertha Mae Bert and Herman Carr presented their senior themes; Bertha Mae Bert and Herman Carr were given the American Legion awards. The next night the Esquire Club gave the annual senior dance. Thus came the climax to our high school career. We had spent many happy years in our high school and were sad to see them gone but happy to know that we had achieved another goal in preparation for life's job ahead.

Eleven o'clock lunch hour

The theme of the prom which we gave in honor of the January class of '42 was "Promzapoppin\" It was the loudest and brightest prom ever given at Alliance High School. The ceiling was made up of eight layers of lively colored crepe paper including green, orange, yellow, purple, red, and blue. The strips of crepe paper were stretched back and forth over the ceiling and this produced the illusion that the paper was woven. Large bags of colored balloons and y ards of colored paper poured from the ceiling when the lights were turned out. The most glamorous girl, the busiest girl, and the class clown were some of the celebrities chosen from the 11A and 12A classes to receive spe­ We gather 'round for presentations at Promzapoppin'. cial recognition at the intermission. Ray Aquilo presided as the master of ceremonies. He passed out various gruesome presents such as a live eel and a piece of limburger cheese. The prom ended on a destructive note as we all pulled down the decora­ tions and dragged the paper up the steps and tied it on our cars. So, tired and worn out, we closed our junior year taking with us pleasant memories.

Our Classmates Made Their Debut 28 Quieted at the Solemnity of Baccalaureate

Commencement came to the seniors at the completion of four years of study and fun. The senior thought back to his first day in high school ... the day when everything was strange and new . . . then came the junior year and clubs, dances, parties, class meetings, the prom, senior themes, the senior play, baccalaureate, commencement, and suddenly it was all over and there they were alone and wondering, "What next?" These seniors had a busy life to look forward to. Many of the boys went into the armed forces, the army, navy, marines, coast guard, spread all over the globe in Europe, Africa, and the Pacific area. Many other seniors were employed in war industries making ships, planes, and guns to lick the Axis. The girls planned to be nurses, secretaries, and some also went to work in the war industries. These seniors will have an important part in winning the war and planning the peace after the war. These seniors have ahead a bigger job than most graduating seniors have had for a long time. The years spent in high school prepared them for this work. So with a last stirrup-cup, toasting tomorrow "when the world is free" the January class stepped into tomorrow.

' HB^K BsRTtl In the Spring We Proudly Presented

("Bucky") Gene Wyand "jits" with ("Sis") Margaret Cassidy

llA's gather 'round to plan a prom in secrecy Memories of a Junior-Senior Prom we gave in honor of the June Class of '42 will always linger in our hearts. The red, white, and blue decorations have long been gathering dust in some forgotten corner, but we will always remember how stars shone in the gym on the twenty-third of May. Soft lights — the magic odor of flowers and perfume — the lilting rhythm of Tommy Van's orchestra — little patriotic tri-colored paper hats — red and blue crepe paper streamers on a stick — a brightly decorated canteen, where we sipped cool chocolate milk and munched on crispy cook­ ies between dances — the flash of crossed swords as the grand march passed beneath their arch — the red, white, and blue colored dance pro­ grams — these, and a hundred other remembrances. The shrill cry of a siren and the sudden darkness of a blackout which heralded the approach of intermission — the comical antics of "Bucky" Wyand, who read the class prophecy and master of ceremonies "Jackie" Peters, who tried to keep "Bucky" under control — the catchy tune sung by the four "Promsters," Dick Strain, Bill Wright, Bruce Wiegel, and Bob Brugger — these to us were bliss. After intermission, we danced again in an enchanted dreamland — a misty star-filled world all our own — until the last note of the theme-song died away. Then we climbed the old gym steps with stars in our eyes, music still ringing in our ears, and with one grand memory of our Junior- Senior Prom.

Mary Charlene Sponseller Students—Shirley Morey, Jeanne McCue, Eileen Brown, Robert Clay, Richard Strain Understudies Betty England, Don Felgar Prompter Beverly Brock For our class play we gave "What a Life." We produced this three- act comedy on April 28. Class members flock to try outs As the curtains parted for our play the scene was the principal's office in Central High School. Here, Henry Aldrich, the school's "problem child" who was sent to see the principal because he caused a disturbance in his English class, learns of a coming dance which costs $2.00 a person. Henry's mother made a proposition to him that if he got the highest grade in his history test she would give him the money for the dance. In the second act Henry receives the highest grade in the test—but at the expense of cribbing from George Bigelow's paper. His trouble grows more complex when he becomes involved in the stealing of some band in­ struments. The clouds cleared for Henry in the last act when George Bigelow was found guilty of stealing the instruments. Henry won the tickets for the dance through a bet with the assistant principal. As the final curtain dropped he and his girl, Barbara, left for the dance.

To Defend the Flag Tomorrow To the Memory of Joseph Perry, Comrade and Fellow Player

In Memoriam "In memory of Joe Perry, a member of the class of June, 1943, Alliance High School establishes its first athletic scholarship award. Recognition is given, in the form of a suitably engraved gold medal, to the student in each graduating class who has won no less than three varsity athletic letters and of this group, in addition, has the highest standing in scholarship. It is designed that this award shall be given to a succession of twenty athletes over a period of ten years. The name of each recipient will ap­ pear upon a large loving cup placed in the high school athletic trophy casei It is entirely fitting that the first memorial award should go to a per­ sonal friend, classmate of, and fellow competitor with Joe Perry. James Hanny receives and truly merits the honor. All who knew these young men noted their striking similarity. From a distance, on the football field, one could easily be mistaken for the other] As athletes go, they were not endowed with large stat­ ure. What they lacked in physique was made up in abundant competitive spirit. Genial in personality, both were highly regarded by their teammates. No one could be more pleased than Joe that this memorial honor should first go to his good friend "Jim­ my." JOE PERRY Ralph Coppock, Athletic Director.

From a squad that broke even in eight matches played with such opponents as Canton McKinley, Massillon, Salem, and Sebring, Coach William Gross had to rebuild his squad around two returning lettermen: Don Felgar and Harry Eccleston. Frank Shreve and Arthur Stuckey, who ordinarily would have been returning lettermen, were in college, and were unable to compete in scholastic matches. Lettermen of 1942 were Lyle Crist, Herman Carr, Arthur Stuckey, Frank Shreve, Harry Eccleston, and Don Felgar. Coach William Gross had several outstanding prospects in Don Stone, Dean Ashbrook, Edgar Shirk, Paul Cope, Bob Bay, Glen McCrea, Earl Sheehan, and Earl Bacon to fill in the positions left vacant by graduating seniors. Alliance has been forced to schedule matches with schools within a certain distance, because of gas rationing.

TRACK SEASON SHOWED LOSSES TO ARMY AND INDUSTRY In the track season which opened the last of April, Alliance High made every attempt to schedule meets with the neighboring schools who had teams. The team which she put on the cinders was well represented. Five lettermen, several others who had experience and several new­ comers provided Coach Hoppes with a well-rounded track squad. The returning lettermen were Bob Krahling, hurdles, Harry Geltz, GOLF HAD SUCCESSFUL SEASON hurdles, and Jim Hanny in the distances. Others who represented Alliance The members of the golf team for 1942 were: Ermes Candusso, in track this spring were Walter Wollam, Warren Hardy, Bill Rodgers, George Irwin, Sam Reale, Octave Talaba, Alirdo Carli, Jack Dawson, Leonard Snodgrass, and John C. Rodgers. Frank Kacarab, Pete Zapolski. Jurin Hanny, Joe Perry (deceased). Jack Other lettermen who were not back this spring were Warren Mangus, Mainwaring, Ed Holt, John Barany, and Albert Smith. the school's "speed-merchant" who ran the 100 and 220-yard dashes, Jim Falkner and Joe Igro, who are in the armed forces, and Herman Pelger (deceased). First Team First Substitutes The 1942 track squad accomplished a great feat in the achievement of Ermes Candusso Octave Talaba Joe Igro, Herman Pelger, Bob Krahling, and Warren Mangus, who broke the school record, for the half-mile relay, which was set in 1932 by Peters, George Irwin, Captain Alirdo Carli Carrol, Fisher, and King, who won the event in 1:37.7. This year's four­ some's winning time was 1:36.6. Jack Dawson Jim Hanny placed fifth in Salem and McKinley relays respectively. His Sam Reale best time was 4:42 for a mile in Salem relays. 88 f X
