MR. DUNLAVY Sponsor. Se vt-n Last Will and Testament of the Class of 1942 We, the Closs of 1942, of the High School of Underwood, ha ving come to the end of our long life in a peaceful ond undisturbed state of, what we hove always been pleased to coll,our mind, in accordance with the lows of this state, do he reby give and be - quea th a nd devise oil our wordly goods and possessions with oil the a ppurte nances and hereditoments the re - unto belonging, a s seemeth wise and fitting in our judgment, without toking advice or counsel from a nyone, and without being influenced in the least by post fa vors or disfa vors, post kindness or unkindness. We may soy that in ma king these bequests we hove been said to possess in a remarkable degree, common se nse . ITEM I. To the Boord of Ed ucation, oil our power of seeing through a stone wa ll, tha t powe r which, in time post, hos mode our course in life so spectacular, a nd the lock of which hos broug ht our career to on ignominious failure . Our legacy to the Boord of Education, the power of seeing through a stone wall, is given in order to sa ve the legatee from future serious disa ste r, and because it is evident that said legatee is expected by the community a t Jo rge to possess this g reat gift. ITEM 11 . To the faculty of the Underwood High School we give and bequea th and devise oil our visions, 0'1 1 in good and unha mpered condition. By this gift they will be enabled to depict the future of all the girls a nd boys unde r the ir charge, and so wisely to arrange their lives from da y to day. By the use of this gift, we know they will ovoid o il mista kes to which oil ordina ry members of the human fami ly ore subject.

Aforesaid legatees must assume oil duties responsibilities a nd adventures, e ntire ly at the ir w~ peril, a nd wi thout any hope of indemnity from any other human be ing whatever. ITEM JV. For the Sophomores, a las, we hove nothing to offer tha t would seem of va lue to them. Wha t could we leave them? The class tha t hos eve rything.

Middleton Principal SENIOR CLASS OF 1942 Edwin Talbott President The foregoing instrument was signed by the Class of 1942 in our presence and by them published and declared as and for their LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT and at their req uest and in their presence and in the presence of each other, we hereunto subscribe our hands this day and year. Nine A Trip to Heaven (A Closs Prophecy for Closs of 1942) S-s-s--, boom, tinkle. And I felt myself being hurled rapid! through space. I should hove known better than to appear in Miss Graber's English class without my assignment reod.y. I tried to catch hold of a cloud as I went by. Then I clutched at the moon, the planet Mercury, and the Milky Woy, but without avail. On I sped into Eternity. Then I stood before the Golden Gate . Saint Peter began to ask me questions a bout my innumerable post sins but any one with expe rience in giving excuses for things undone at Underwood High School has nothing to fear from a mere Saint I hod no trouble at all in persuading the old gentleman that I was more of a saint than he was, although Miss Olden and Mr. Dunlavy would quickly hove seen through my line of explanations. Saint Peter handed mo a slide trombone, explaining that they were all out of harps in Heaven, swung open the Golden Gate and there I was in Paradise . The first matter that caught my attention was a number of little cherubs se lling newspapers. I listened to the ir cries and this is what I heard : "Extra! Principal of Underwood High School is very sick! Grieving over loss of brightest boy in senior cla ss!" About this time I began to sprout wings, but I was aroused from this discovery by anothe r cry. "Extra! Extra! Principal Middleton hos died and gone to Heaven!" So I returned to the Golden Gate and stood on hour waiting . But nobody showed up. Finally there was on increase of shouting from the heavenly newsboys. "Extra! Extra! Principal Middleton does not show up at Heaven ." Wondering about Heaven several hours later I come upon a lot of angels looking through telescopes, and having a grand time laughing at what they sow. I procured a telescope, adjusted it, and there before my vision was the good earth, the town of Underwood and all my friends of Underwood High School. The sight was a little blurred so I twisted the adjustments, and beho ld there was the earth again in the year of 1970. W ell, well, I thought, here is a chance to see what my old friends ore up to. Usi ng my new immortal power, I ordered my telescope to focus itself. Sure enough, across the Atlantic it went. Across Ital y, Greece, and into Turkey. The City of Constantinople loomed up before my gaze, the palace of the Sulton . Yes, here was the inner Court of the Sul ton's harem-and-soy! Could it possibly be true . Sitting in majesty upon a throne, receiving the plaudits of the other ladies of the harem was none other than our own Donna Herrill. "Great work, ol d telescope," I said. " Now show me some of the other girls." It hesitated and wavered for a moment, then bock it streaked to the old home town ond up to a house with o sign in front of it "Old Ladies Home," and the re, sitting comfortably in the front room ploying checkers were Verle Herrick and Mary Killion, ond Betty Anderson wa s sitting watching them ove r her knitting. Poor girls, I always thought they hod better things in store for them than this. But on rushed my te lescope . North we scurried over Canada, and up to cold frigid Alaska. Here we Ten stopped before on Esk imo Igloo. The father of the family was away but ploying around the Igloo entrance were fourteen little Esk imo children. I soy Eskimo children yet they hod a look about them that was familiar. And almost at once I knew why, for there issued from the e ntrance the mother, considerably more plump than when I knew her lost, but sti ll the some old Pat Kenealy. She always hod to be at the top o f everything and here she was at lo st " sitt ing on top of the world." My telescope was impati en t so I let it go on. Bock to New York City, and right into a ladi es' athl etic club. Before I could halt it we were inside the Turk ish both. There, with only their heads protruding from the tops of steam boxes, each with three chins but reconizobl e yet were Maxine Dose and Maxine Ellis. Just as I thought I I knew when I was bock home that if those two girls didn't stop getting so much candy from their various boy fri ends they would e nd up like this. And then my te lescope took a short swing . He re we were at the Fo lli es, my how those gi rls could dance ! And right in the middle of the line, stepping o s peppy as any o f the rest of them, were Doralee Klopping and Rosemary Osborn. Those gi rls must be nearly fifty yea rs o ld by this time but you wouldn ' t know it to see them. Make-up con do marvelous things in cove ring a girl's age! And then right boc k to Underwood High School. How natural it looked. Nothing seemed changed o bit. But who do you suppose was scrubbing the corridor floors wearing a cop label ed Assistant Joni tress! It was N~rma Benson. You'd wonder pe rhaps how she would make use o f her store of Geome try and Algebra on a job like this. Neverthel ess, he re she was. We often wonder what happened to Virginia Hemmingson. My te lescope turned to Russia where she is doing post-war nursing. I then focused my te lescope on one o f Virginia 's best friend s, Shirley Ballard who is to be noted o s one of Hollywood's best hoir stylists and make up artists. All th rs time I was wondering whot hod become o f the boys of the class, but even on immortal telescope cou ld not reveal to me more than one scene at a time. Now I hod to restrain myself no longer. Off we went. Chicago wos our first stop. The build ing which e ntered our vision was ve ry modern and prosperous look.ing.. Over the main entrance hung a sign. "Orgoniz~d Rockets of Ame rica. " The telescope pi e rced t ~ building, showed me t~,e general o ffi ce and p~us~­ before a door marked, Special Deportment for ,, oo A ing Children's Ban ks, Ed Nelson, Chi e f oote,~; littl e cord hanging from the door now sa id, Away on firm business." Wi thout waiting any longer I ordered my ro phecyii~? te lescope to be on its way . He re 1s what we faun It Rov Handke driving a ga rbage coll ecting tru ~k . If _ must have bee n his Scotch ancestry showing 1tse getting something for nothing. Playing in a Salvation 1, Army Band, we found John Costor. His better nature overcame him in the end. President of the clerk Republic of Santa Domingo, we discovered to be Horold Esington, sitting in a palace surrounded by machine guns. Harold always said he would be president some day. Lastly we came to Ed Tolbott, manager of Gun-boat Flynn, the contender far the heavyweight championship of the United States. Leave it to Ed to be around if there was going to be a fight! With this my telescope turned to the main office of the Treasury building where we find Merle Russell stumbling over one of his old school favorites-a ten column working sheet. The next twist was to Madison Square Garden where whom should we find to our amazement but Bill Huneke, All Star hockey player. His school basketball proved to be very helpful in his hockey playing. The next stop on the class of 1942 we find the happiest couple in the world D. L. Lowden and Zella Mathias. It seems they were married after graduation. D. L. joined the navy, Zella fallowed him to South America where they live in a bamboo hut with their large family of sunburned children. The last stop was at the Stork Club in Hollywood. There we find Bob Hansen leading his famous dance band and doing quite a bit of trombone soloing him- self. And then my alarm clock rang. Alarm cloc k in Heaven! Certainly not. I awoke groggily and looked at the clock. Five thirty in the morning . I loo ked at the calendar, April 30, 1942. Oh yes! I had set the alarm in order to wake up in time to write that theme for Miss Graber's Engl ish class. My trip to Heaven was all a dream. Perhaps my classmates aren't going to wind up in harems, igloos, rackets, and garbage collecting. Who knows?

In these and many other ways has the annual staff at, tempted to make a significant occasion of the twentieth anni, versary of Thomas Jefferson high school. ..... . • • Thomas Jefferson high school, better known at T. ]., was born in June, 1920. It might have been born sooner, for its construction was approved by popular vote on March 12, 1917, but was thwarted by the World War and legal obs~ ruct ns. In the two years that followed, the school, built of Bedford limestone with Georgian architecture and soft pine woodwork, grew in size and beauty. From the front, the building took on Lhe appearance of a half courtyard, with an east wing containing the cafeteria downstairs and the auditorium upstairs. On the extreme west was built a similar wing which housed the library and the gymnasium. It was then constructed so that each wing could be entered from the outside through three parts of double doors, the entrance through the east wing permitting patrons to go to the auditorium without having access to the rest of the building. For the use of th~ pupils, front entrances were made at the extreme right and left of the center section. At the rear of the school, appeared two doors which corresponded directly with those of the front. On the east side of the bu'.lding, near the steps leading to the cafeteria, can be found the corner stone, which was laid March 15, 1921. The school was dedicated in January, 1922 and opened its doors to 716 young knowledge seekers the same year. The main building has fifteen classrooms on its first floor and fourteen on its second. Though it has no full third floor, room 300 makes a "grand" beginning. This room, since it is rather isolated, often remains unknown to some students. H owever as the rendezvous of the journalism students who organize the Signal, the school's weekly newspaper, it is one of the most important rooms in the school. South of the main building is the object of the student printer's desire-the print shop. H ere all the school's printed material originates. Included in this are the Monticello, school yearbook, and the Signal. weekly newspaper. The print shop "vas enlarned in 1926 and printing facilit'es were improved in 1930 by addition of a larger press R O.T.C. training began with the opening of the school. In 1923 the R O .T.C. unit was under the instruction of gea~t Bertram L. Rhea. Few boys were enrolkd in the classes. and they had never been in a drill hall or a rifle range. In 1929 a small ROTC h .11 w;:i ~ h1ilt n'l. th e e::tst s;de nf the annex. As the number taki1w this training increa.oed. the need for more room became ev'.dent. Therefore, in 1937 one of the school's biggest improvements came in the form of a large band and R.0.T.C. hall adjoining the west side of the old printing room. The first R.0.T.C. rifle squad at Thomas Jefferson was organized in 1930, and in 19H an indoor rifle range was built. A football game was first played on the T . J. field October 13, 1922. T. ]., whose coach was Bill Thompson, played Oakland. The Yellowjackets, as the players came to be known, played a memorable game for the school's football history for they won, 19 to 9. That season T. J. emerged all-victorious, for not a game was lost. The season's encounters summed up to T. J's winning a total of 61 points to their opponent's 9. In 1922, the school band was organized. The Thomas Jefferson and Abraham Lincoln high school bands consolidated in 1923, and won first place in a contest with the Omaha Central and Lincoln, Nebraska bands. Following this success, they participated in the National High School Band contest held at Chicago. Here they were awarded third place among the hundred high school bands that took part. The first Thomas Jefferson high school orchestra, organized in 192 3, was composed of seven members. Debate was introduced at Thomas Jefferson in 1924 by the debate club. On January 10, 1924, the negative team defeated Atlantic and Woodbine. In February • the affirmative team opened the season by debating South High of Omaha. Thomas Jefferson's first defeat came on February 7, when the negative team lost at Guthrie Center. This closed the season. Dramatics was taken up extensively by literary societies at Thomas Jefferson in 1925. Since then the high school's own programs coupled with paid activity programs have made great use of the auditorium . . . . And so things were begun .. . and so they grew in stature and in importance ... . Thirty-five seniors received high school diplomas as the class of '24 ... the first graduating class of Thomas Jefferson high school. This year, well over six times this many will walk down the aisle in mortar board and gown ..... These classes and those to come are the history makers of Thomas Jefferson high school. r·· f . • The Band and R.0.T.C.

C. L. Crawford Now in his second year as the capable superintendent of Council Bluffs Public Schools' System, Dr. Crawford sends a message to the students of Thomas Jefferson High School. Twenty years ago a new chapter was opened in the history of the Council Bluffs Independent School District. That chapter began with the first opening of the Thomas Jefferson High School, then a young institution which was soon to grow into one of the strong and outstanding high schools of this section. This growth has been both well and rapid. You are recognized today as a most worthy competitor in scholarship, athletics, and social development. Today we are passing through extremely critical times and our world is in turmoil. We are counting on all of our people, present and future, Thomas Jefferson faculty and students, to do their part in helping settle the present world problems in the most satisfactory manner. Many of your graduates are serving today in the United States Armed Forces and many others will serve. Others can also help by filling places and positions at home in a more efficient and capable manner, by working a little harder, and by doing just a little more to take the place of those who are now in Military Service. As members of the Thomas Jefferson High School, you go to make up one important body or organization of the greater Council Bluffs public school system. Your loyalties belong not only to your Thomas Jefferson High School but to your city as well. As members of the Thomas Jefferson High School and potential graduates from the Council Bluffs public school system, you face important responsibilities in the future as an adult citizen and we wi·sh you all kinds of success and hope that the world which lies ahead will be happier and more successful than the one in which we find ourselves at the present. Sincerely yours, C. L. CRAWFORD. CLC:GFF - Principal R. F. Myers Leading students, faculty and office force through difficult and pleasant days at school, the name R. F. Myers has become synonomous with the enviable reputation of Thomas Jefferson High School. On the north side of Thomas Jefferson High School, near the middle of th hall, there is an archway which leads to the school's office. Those who enter this busy portal soon discover that everyone inside is e:ther hurriedly trying to do something for someone else or very energetically endeavoring to get something done for himself. Students are usually in the latter predicament and 'vvisely choose the help of one of three competent young office assistants-Virginia Dinkle, Virginia Buck, or Annabell e Wright. These girls are capable of coping with the problems involving T. ]. or its students for a special reason-all three can claim it as their alma mater. Note: Since this picture was taken, Virginia Dinkle has accepted a position in Washington . Her place has been taken by Josephine Marlow.

JUNIORS A "sweeping victory" for the new officers of the Junior class was the result of the election held on February 3. The meeting was conducted by Principal R. F. Myers. Favorites of the ballot box were Bob Gilson for president; Dick Corder, vice-president; Peggy Curran, secretary; and Marilyn Moats, treasurer. Miss Ruth Brown and Mr. Charles Davis were elected class sponsors. Bob, the president of the class, is active in dramatics, president of the Masque and Bauble, and a member of the basketball squad. Dick, the vice-president, lettered in track and participated in basketball, and is a member of the Lettermen's Club. Peggy, secretary of the class, is a member of the G.A.A ., girls' sextette, and carried a lead in the junior play. Marilyn, the treasurer, also led in the junior -play and is a member of the G.A.A. Miss Brown is sponsor of the Masque and Bauble and teaches dramatics and English. Mr. Davis is sponsor of the Solo Club and is instructor of vocal music. An indication of the true class spirit was revealed by the large number of students who participated in the "try-outs" for various parts in the Junior play, "The Charm School." It was dramatized on May 15. Other activities of the Junior class were the annual junior frolic and the JuniorSenior Prom. With the passing of spring into summer, graduation time grows nearer and thus next fall the Juniors will take the places left vacant by the Senior class. With various outstanding talents represented in the Class of '43, it expects to maintain the high standards set by previous Senior classes at Thomas Jefferson High School.

Page 57 1 Amidst the whirl of schedule cards, new classes, and new teachers which come at the beginning of each semester, the freshmen emerged to take the limelight from the upperclassmen for a few days-old phrases, jokes, and stunts which are used on the freshmen each year by the older students were taken from their hiding places and used again. Registration day represented the beginning of a new era for the freshmen. They were filled with grand and noble ideas of making their high-school days the happiest of their entire lives. They knew of the high standards of Thomas Jefferson High School students, and they resolved to maintain those high standards to the best of their ability. "Grade-school" days were left behind as the " frosh" entered highschool with their eager outlook toward the future . During the bustle and excitement of enrollment days, the Girls' Council stepped in to give a helping hand to freshmen girls needing their advice. Later, the Girls' Council also staged a Freshman Party, where the girls could become more acquainted with each other and with their Girls' Council " big sisters."

Bottom p:cture: The debate team prepare for a contest. Left to right: Marilyn Greenlee, Elaine Lewis, Jack Brown and Kathleen Gallagher. The 1941 -42 debate season proved a successful, if not an over-active one, for Thomas Jefferson High School. Early in the fall, the debaters, under direction of Coach Ernest H . Ulm, sponsored the 7th Annual Debate Clinic. Thirty-two teams were entered, representing schools all over the mid-west. A Freshman-Sophomore debate was next on the calendar. This was given before the student body on November 21, at which Mr. David Grant, former member of the Thomas Jefferson High School faculty, judged. The decision was given to the freshmen. The Missouri Valley Debating Tournament came next on the schedule. At this, T. J. entered only in the girls' tournament. February 27 saw T . J. debating at South High School. Both T. J. teams, however, lost close decisions. South retaliated on March 6 by debating before the T. J. student body, at which our affirmative team won and the negative team lost. The final tournament of the season was held at Creighton Prep on April 6. Although no decisions were handed to the T. J. debate teams, Jack Brown emerged in the finals of the original oratorical . contest to win the first place.

The Forum is the student governing body of the school. Its activities are many varied. One of the best-known activities of this group is the giving of Thanksgiving baskets of food to the poor and needy every year. Below is the 1941 offering given by Thomas Jefferson High School students. Officers of the Forum during the school year were: Les Strong, president; Ernest H ancock, vice-president; Cleo Farrell, secretary. Page 80 The 1 )th Annual Self-Reliant Day was held at Thomas Jefferson High School in December, 1941 . On this day, as on previous days of this sort students, chosen by their class-mates, were put in charge of the classes. Other students, chosen by the facu lty, had control of the office work. Principal R. F. Myers' place was taken by Les Strong, Forum president, shown above shaking hands with Mayor S. W. McCall. Page 81 At left is Helen Jensen, one of the student teachers, instructing a fellow student in the journalism class. Among the many distinguished visitors at Thomas Jefferson High School during Self-Reliant Day were, at left with "Principal" Les Strong, City Fire Chief Merrill; Mayor McCall, and Chief of Police Bangs. \ The Boys' City is a newly-organized group, which can already boast of many varied activities. Officers in the group represent city officials, each office corresponding with an office in the city government.

The Girls' Council is an honorary ,organization composed of thirty girls chosen by the women members of the faculty because of their service, leadership, scholarship and character. It is sponsored by Miss Helen Exley. One of the purposes of this organization is to help freshmen girls to adjust themselves to high-school life. This is carried out in the "Big and Little Sister" plan. Each member chooses two or three freshmen girls as her "little sisters," and helps them with their individual problems. An assembly program is held before each new semester to inform these girls of school activities, club rules, and the building. The value of this program has been provided by the comments of the freshmen girls themselves. Bi-monthly programs including speeches, motion pictures, panel discussion and the initiation program are given for all the girls of the school.

Yankton College; U. of Iowa. Physical Education With Miss Helen F. Johnson as instructor, girls' athletics were first introduced into T. ]. in 1923. Throughout its fifteen years of popularity, seven gym teachers have come and gone. Until 1931, the girls in the gym classes had worn black uniforms with white middies, but in that year the green gym suits were introduced. Girls go to physical education classes twice a week for one hour periods. Dur, ing this time they participate in many games and exercises. At the end of the period those who wish may take a shower. H ealth and hygiene form another part of the physical education program. Girls, who for some reason cannot participate in active sports, go to special health classes. This year, National H ealth Day, on May 1, was celebrated by a demon, stration in which all of the gym classes participated. T o assist Miss Grow, there are two girls in every class who belong to the Gym Assistants Club. They perform v~rious duties such as taking attendance, giving instructions, and refereeing games. For assisting in the gym at least twice a week, the girls receive athletic points that go toward earning an athletic letter and an Iowa State pin. For the letter, girls must earn five hundred points. To receive a pin, they must have earned one thousand points.

This game, resembling baseball in many ways, is played by kicking a rubber ball from person to person, and scores are made by kicking the ball between two aoalr ::s:s. When cold winds and snow keep the girls inside, one of their favorite games is basketball. Many inter-class and home room basketball tournament games are played during the winter.

Opening their eight-game schedule at home, the Yellow jackets held a T -party on their own field September 12, running over Shenandoah's game but inexperienced eleven by the score of 38- 13. September 26 saw the fighting · Jeffs overcome a Central lead to score in the closing minutes and pull out a 13- 12 victory. The following week T. J. defeated their arch rivals from the Hilltop by a score of 19-6. The Lynx were no match for the hardcharging Yellowjackets. Thomas Jefferson and North met on the T. J. field October 10, with the game ending in a hard-fought 12-12 tie. The next Friday, the injury-riddled Jeff squad traveled to Red Oak, where they lost a heart-breaking 13 -20 decision to the fighting Tigers. The weakened Yellowjackets simply co~ld not match the power of the heavier boys from Red Oak. On October 24, T . J. battled Logan on the Panther's field, defeating them by a score of 14-6, the game being played on a slippery, wet fi eld . Page 108 After two weeks rest, the Y ellowjackets again proved their superiority over A . L., swamping the Lynx by a score of 20-6 on the Hilltoper's field . The shifty Jeff backs, running from the new T formation, were more than a match for th slower, heavier Lynx linemen, breaking through repeatedly for long gains. In the final game of the season, Benson invaded T. J. territory and in a game that was to decide the winner of the Intercity, the Bunnies carried off a 13-0 victory and the crown. The Yellowjacket eleven battled gamely throughout the ~,une but could not cope with the heavier attack of the Benson eleven. All in all, the season was a highly successful one, the fighting Jeffs capturing second place in the Intercity. What the Yellowjackets lacked in weight and height, they made up in speed, shiftiness, and courage. A team such as this deserves the praise they received from the student body. , Stan Stepanek is run down by Neve ( 44), Sluyter (50), Strong, ( 49), Stelovich ( 51), and Lund ( 5 3) of T.

Besides the regulary scheduled games, the Yellowjackets played the T . ]. Alumni twice, losing the first game by 26-40 and the second game, a Red Cross benefit game, by 28- 34.

What they lacked in height and we ·eht, they made up in team spirit, courage, and speed. Outstanding for the Yellowjackets all season were Captain Ivan Liddell, Bob H olst, Bill Lund, Dick Ronk. and Eddie T yler, ably supported by V ern Wiese, Bob Gilson, George Sweetman, .Tim Turnipseed, H arry Sluyter, Eugene Flecky, and Jim Buck.

Rosenkranz Two Mobilized For Victory Awake America! Stand by to meet any emergency! A radio flash on December 7, 1941, shocked Americans into a full awareness of national danger. The. phr.ase, "Remember Pearl Harbor," will come in the future to be a household word for alertness. Now it is the war-cry of youth, a cal I to the army, the navy, the air corps. The cream of American manhood is being mobili zed for victory. In no less measure has the a lert been sounded for the citi zens at home. We are the wardens who, wide-awake, watchful vigilant, whi le keeping national life going normally, must at the same time bend every effort to war production. Priorities demand that we place defense above every other consideration. Yet the schools still rema in the first line of defense, for out of them come the future soldiers, the sa ilors, the airmen; out of them too comes the post-war nation. The school is the greatest priority. Happy will be the country that remembers that after wars cease, out of the schools come the statesmen, the presidents, the scholars, the artists, the workmen in all walks of life. Here in the school beats the heart of the nation. That heart is alive to America's need. CONTENTS--Dedicat ion (4 ) .. . A d - m ini stration ( 6 ) . . . Faculty ( 8 ) . .

Four America On Guard The Statue of Liberty, standing guard at America's front door, uplifts a torch that is a constant challenge to vigilance. Now as never before in the world's history, this is a challenge to preserve a way of life. That way of life for us Democracy-a way of life that believes in the worth of the individual, in liberty, and in "freedom-loving men and women." Our spiritual heritage is too deep-rooted to rel inquish; we are determined to preserve it at all costs. Conquer we must. As young people who must in the future carry on the American tradition, we dedicate the yearbook of 1942 to the Spirit of Eternal Vigilance.

Eleven They Guide and Inspire THE FACULTY The faculty of a modern American high school accepts a challenge second to none . Meeting youth on its own ground, the teachers must be Argus-eyed to catch every flicker of talent and to fan it into a flame of action. Guidance and inspiration are the keynotes of their program. The forty-five members of A L.'s faculty are thoroughly alive to the opportunities and responsibilities of their task. The Dean of Girls As friendly consultant and confidant, the dean of girls is an indispensable asset to any large high school. Miss Nyrop has filled this position admirably here for eleven Miss Dora Nyrop Twelve years. Her duties include supervision of N. Y. A work for girls, first-aid service, counseling, pre-college advice, orientation, and supervision of rural students. Alice Madsen I In the classrooms the student becomes aware of the many wonders awaiting him in the fields of ~cience, mathematics, music, literature, h istory . If he is alert, there is no limit to the range of his understanding of the universe. Thil'tt_C!l Standing: Blaine Vandevente r, Mr. Burke.

Now we find ourselves in the place of honor at Abraham Lincoln High School. Four yea~ of high school have seen our mora l, mental, and physi cal growth . We were grade school children with little responsibility; now we are seniors who have been trained to accept and fullfill our obligati ons and responsibilities. We shall go on doing this with an earnestness that shows we are qualified to step into the business and social life of a nation at war as well as at peace. Citizenship, as well as scholastic attain - ment, has played an important part in our education. By becoming good citizens of our school, we may, in turn, become good citizens of our nation . Now, as we poss the finale of our days in high school, we shall be on the alert to grasp the impressive opportunities of the adult world. We shall endeavor so to live that our school, its faculty, and our friends may feel pride in our achievements. Fifteen EARL ANDERSON Commercial Masque and Wig, Head electrician, R.O.T.C.

We gained a "thank you" from the seniors for arranging the Junior-Senior Prom. We hope that we have gained the goodwill of the faculty so they will welcome us-to coach and teach us in our senior year. We look forward to our senior year with hope comparable to that felt last year in Th irty-two becoming upper classmen. Our scholastic and athletic attainments we hope will be crowned with greater success next year.

DcVol. Forensics This year's debate problem "Resolved: That every able-bodied male citizen of the United States should have one year of full Lme military training before attaining the present draft age" was timely and in line with the trend of thought of the American people. Th2 regular varsity two-men teams were used for the first time this year in intramural competition instead of the traditional three-men teams. In the final rounds, the champion boys' team, the Aristos, defeated the Thalians, the champions of the girls. The varsity squad then started to prepare for the contests that were in the offing. A new system of problocts was e xperimented with and proved successful. In Decembe r the varsity team placed second at a tournament at Central High School in Lincoln, Nebraska. With the advent of 1942, the debate team returned to Lincoln Fifty-six to enter the Nebraska Wesylan Univesity Forensics contest. Out of a field of more than th irty teams, Abraham Lincoln squad placed sixth in the two-day meet. The varsity members with a full month to prepare for the district tournament at Perry, Iowa, ofter the Wesylon contest, went to work with full intention of gaining ultimate victory at the district contest. On Morch l, Rose Pa luk.a, Leono ra Sollozo, Marvin Richards, Jack Peregory, a nd R.

The accomplishments were not singularly at the district, however, for Jock Peregory qualified for the state tournament in extemporaneous speaking.

From the time a student ente rs the ninth grade until he becomes a sen ior, his highest ambition is to become a member of the National Hono r Society. The requirements for this honor are stiff. They are stiff because only a limited number may be selected as members. To be elegible fo r membership, one must rank in the upper third of h is c lass if he is a senior, and in the upper fourth of h is class if he is a junior. He must have shown marked achievements in other qualifications. S ixty-two There are four basic requirements for membership in this o rganization: Character, scholarship, leadersh ip, and service. In considering membership, a secret committee of teachers composed of representatives from eve ry department se lect those who have most nearly fulfilled these high standards. Fi nally the day comes when members are to be taken into the Honor Society. After three or four years of diligent study and service, the ir ambition is at last realized.

Seventy-n ine Gridiron Review Boasting of no spectular record in the 1941 season, the Abraham Lincoln football squad ended the campaign with three wins chalked up against five defeats. The first game resulted in a setback, but that was soon overshadowed as the Lynx pounded out two successive victories on home grounds. Constantly battling the injury jinx, the squad went into a four-game slump and finall y emerged by taking the season's loser. On September l 3, Abraham Lincoln invaded the stronghold of the Big Red in the season's initial fray. A veteran Missouri Valley outfit capitalized on blunders midway in the nip-and-tuck battle to blast the hopes of the Lynx for an undefeated sea - son. From deep in the heart of A L. territory a poor punt and a disastrous penalty paved the way for Valley's score. Grid proceedings on Kirn Field were started two weeks later as a scrappy Logan went down, 13-6. Scott's end run climaxed a first quarter drive, and O'Neill's 56-yard runbac k of a Logan pass yielded the Lynx their first victory. City rivalry was renewed on the West End Field as Thomas Jefferson played host to the Lincolns. Tee Jay struck first, but A L. countered a s Lemen took the kickoff and went 96 yards behind good blocking to even the count. Driving over twice in the last ART O'NEILL Honorary Captain half, the Yellowjackets handed our gridmen a bitter 19-6 setback. The Bluffsmen raided the den of the East Sioux City Raiders in the tough est scrap of the season . Scoring in every quarter the powerful Sioux Citians scuttled the outclassed, but spirited Lincolns, 26-0. In spite of a crippled squad, Hilltop home competition was kept in the win column at the expense of Atlantic the next wee k. Abe Lincoln regulars and reserves topped off a spirited week of practice as they a 11 saw action in the 24-6 victory. Scott and Radtke sparked the offense with long end runs that brought the crowd to its feet. A blocked punt deep in Lynx territo ry was the golden opportunity and Central Omaha took it to squeeze past Coa ch Lawson's lads in a 7-0 heartbreaker on Kirn Field . Playing before the new Footba 11 Queen a nd a capacity crowd, the Crimson and Blue fought the finest fight of all the season as they rocked the powerful Eagles on off e nse and Eig ht y-one '- I.

It was a contest between two fine forward walls with our line carrying the scrap to the heavier opponent all the way. The city Grid Crown fell to Tee Jay, November l 0, as Hilltoppers bowed, 20-6, to a fierce second quarter attack.

Hoeman's Huskies Starting the 1941 season under a new coach, Paul Hoemann, the second team soon established themselves as a definite threat in Inter-city league. Lynxmen took the first four games from North, Benson, Tee Jay, and North, before bowing to South, Central, and Creighton Prep for a seasons percentage of .571. These boys had a lot of spirit and will push returning lettermen for varsity berths next year. Baby Frosh The hard luck team on the hilltop was the baby frosh who had a clean slate of no wins. Coach Leslie Bayless's lads, in spite of defeat, were never push-overs in losing close contests to Tee Jay and Bloomer.

Headed by the R.O.G., Radtke-O'Nei I I-Gibler front line, A L. opened the season by over-powering Missouri Valley 45 -35 and Sioux City Central 31 -26. The Lynx first tasted defeat at the hands of Omaha Tech 41-46, as a result of the Moreen's hot fourth stanza . Abe Lincoln made it four wins and one loss by dropping handily T. J. and St. Francis in two nights to the score of 45-28 and 40-27 respectively. Omaha Central became the next Abe Lynx victim as they were out-scored 43-22.

The cagers finished their regular schedule by polishing off Omaha Central 49-31. The Lynx powerhouse won easily over Underwood 62-30, and Avoca 39-17, to take the Sectional Tournament at Neola. With the District Tournament on home boards, the favored Lynx bore steadily on toward a state championship, as they blasted Glenwood 44-26, T. J. in a thriller 51-47 and Atlantic 33-23 .

Eigh ty -SC\'CTI Lynx The Abe Lincoln wrestling squad was given the works during the 1941 -42 season, losing ten matches and winning only one. Our new wrestling instructor, Paul Hoemann, built his squad around the four returning lettermen - Loper, Lee, Cash, and Carta Starting off with a bang by pinning Atlantic 26-20, the team showed great promise, but soon fell into the paws of a ten-game losing streak, defeats coming at the hands of Tech, South, Central, North, and Tee Jay. Doped to clinch the cellar spots at the district tournament, a determined aggregation of grapplers journeyed to the meet and orought home third place. Four boys qualified for individual honors : Loper and Carta, l 29 and l 35 class respectively, copped first place crowns, and Lee and Campbell took second place in the 112 and 95 pound classes. E ighty-e ig h t CO-CAPTAINS Leo Cash-Lynx individual scoring champ. Louis Loper-District winner.

Only four lettermen and their senior ye ar this June : Louise Loper and Orville Lee, both veteran grapplers, and Myron Stroh - behn and Dave Shugart, first year men . But the future looks bright for Coach Hoemann, for district-winner Carta, and the second-place champ, Bob Campbell, both return for another year of competiti on.

" Nine ty-five ~ I In the Military Spotlight "The Military Ball is tonight." For twenty-three years the students of Abraham Lincoln High School have looked forward to that night every year when one of the highest honors in the school will be given to one senior boy and one senior girl. "Victory" was the theme of the Military Ball this year on March 7 . Rifles, the nine corps area symbols, the colorful dresses and uniforms, and the huge Amrican Flag stretched across the ceiling made an impressive sight and helped to carry out the theme of the Ball. One by one the officers and honorary officers were presented and formed a long double line . Through this line, under drawn sabers, Cadet Colonel Robert Alberti and Honorary Colonel Mary DeVol passed on to lead the grand march .
