Junior Prom Is Tomorrow Night
Well, it’s come. Everything is ready. Gosh, you wouldn’t even recognize the
gym., And tomorrow evening you’ll enter the “subterranean cavern” with your best
beau, ready and eager for an evening of sheer enjoyment, an. evening you will never
forget. The Junior Prom is a big item in anyone’s “Book of Memories” and this one
will be more so than ever.
You’ll swing and sway to the music of “Russ Grimes and his ‘Sweet Swing’
Band” and you’ll thank your lucky stars that the band committee with Sherrill Mc
Donald, Jack Fredericks, Pat Canty and Ann Marie Schirra decided on this one.
Fish, mermaids and everything under the'sea will fascinate you. Remember how,
as a child you’d dream of being a deep-sea diver. You never thought, did you, that
some day you’d be dancing in a “subterranean cavern?” Let’s thank Charles Bailey
and his hard-working committee for making your dream come true. Those who
planned the decorations are Ada Fredericks, Joan Hoddinott, Joanne Ehn, Lois
Lagershausen and Lucille Anderson; and those who helped install them are Rupert
Roegner, Barbara Horton, Ralph Nettland, Don Christenson, Dolores Brooks and
Shirley Rohrer.

Memories of
I Study Hall
n
The following short story was written
by Miss Schaeffer, more commonly known
by all of the kids as “Schaef:” Besides
her busy school day of directing girl’s
gym and swimming classes, Schaef some
how finds time for hobbies, of which one
of her favorites is writing. So let’s dig
deeper into the drama of a study hall
through the eyes of one of its teachers.

Jack comes in late. He opens his mouth

I don’s have one, he replies.

Moore’s The Tops
“Going up!” Thus began the pap con
test held after school. May 24, on the
center stairs. Thè unwieldy 16 feet of
glass --tubing was first tes ed by Bob
Hartney. Jim Moore, the second con
testant, drained ten. ounces of- the pop
and an undetermined amount of air in
the record time of 5 minutes and 41.3
seconds. None of the other contestants
was able to top this record.
Jim Ehmer gave up after being asked
to “smile” for''the camera. After much
persuasion and some strong arm tactics,
Louie Robinson graciously consented to
compete. June Ohlson’s attempts nearly
erided in failure due to the heckling from
the onlookers. Howard Linstrom report
ed that he could have slurped the whole
bottle in two minutes flat' if it had been
anything but strawberry pop. The win
ner was presented with a beautifully beribboned bottle of strawberry soda, which
he promptly guzzled. In addition to Jim
Moore’s other achievements, he holds the
undisputed title of being able to stretch
a bottle of pop a long-long way. All we
can say is, “What a bunch of suckers!”

Rita Jane Fisher writes that she is en

Hospital immensely and is getting won
derful experience.
With the thought in mind that the Stu
dent Faculty Forum has been striving
for bigger and better things this year,
opinions from a few of the Forum rep
resentatives were gathered:
Jim Moore (president:) The Forum this
year has not accomplished too much. The
lack of responsibilities’ on the part of the
representatives is a detrimental factor
in lowering the Forum’s standards. We
must have co-operation and students that
are conscientious.
Betty Bray (senior): To me the Forum
was always a student governing body.
Recently I discovered that the Forum is
only able to discuss matters and turn
them over to the office. The Forum has
no power other than discussion. I think
.that the Forum should be a student coun
cil.
Tom Wetmore (secretary): The Forum
was responsible in the students obtain
ing season basketball tickets. We helped
to clear up the detention problem and al
so tried to promote some understanding
between the students and faculty.
, Ernest Reiman (juflior) : There’s a lot
of room for improvement in the Forum.
Too many home rooms elect representa
tives as a joke. There are plans being
made for next year and we hope to start
the Forum off right.
Dick Graf (fresh) : No one ever says
anything. People just sit around and
nothing is eVer accomplished. Next year
will be a different story. One-good thing
is that the Forum is trying to get the
C. A. P. in
T. H. S.
Don Ransdell (sophomore): The Forum
hasn’t done as badly as people think.
There’s a lot of room for improvement
though.
Well kids, you have the Forum’s opin
ion. Now it’s up to you and you and you
to make the Forum a success next year.
The Forum this year has accomplished
more than usual. The student members
have given their views on what the For
um has accomplished and now Mr. Benette, the faculty adviser has given his
opinion.
Tfee Forum has, this year, solved the
detention problem, got season basketball
tickets; held a contest to clean up the
school and got the names of students in
terested in C. A. P. The Forum also sent
two representatives of Niles Township
to the Chicago Youth Conference and
these representatives brought back some
good ideas.
According to Mr. Benette, ‘The Forum
did a lot of good thinking but not quite
enough action. We hope to correct this
next year by getting an earlier start.
“I think the Forum formed a back
ground for Tan organization next year
which will be leaders in many of the ac
tivities of the school.”

Committee
Is Busiest In School
Among those ^ t Nilehi we praise most
are the people on the Activity Committee
—for it is they who have helped to make
this school year one of the most success
ful yet. The Activity Committee deserves
one of the biggest orchids of the year
for their undertaking and carrying out
of some twenty or more different activi
ties.
First they are to be congratulated on
their fine work with the stamp and bond
sales. Their encouragement and splendid
management together with the Trojans
response, helped make possible the pur
chase of thirteen jeeps, one para
chute and a Pb-19B “Fairchild Cornell
Trainer.”
And to the Activity Committee also
goes the credit for the handling of tickets
for the various school activities through
out the year. The Water Carnival, Music
Festival, spring play and Revelry are
but a few of the activities these hard
working Trojans promoted publicity for..
Two very enjoyable programs were
presented during the year, one on Decem
ber 7 and a later one, featuring the Camp
Skokie Band, on February 1. These two
programs and the Jeep Rally held earlier
in the year were in charge of the Ac
tivity Committee.
Last but not least among their many
activities we praise them for their work
on the scrap drive, the sending of paper
to the boys in service and the paper
salvage campaign still in effect.

Scholarships Won By
Five Honor Students
Returns from the scholarship applica
tions have arrived, and here are the ver
dicts, according to Miss Berry, the fac
ulty member who gave these students
help and advice.
To Mundelein with a two-year scholar
ship goes Barbara Mason. She won this
scholarship on the basis of a competitive
exam taken early this spring.
Joaii Cutsler received her $200 scholar
ship to Monticello College in Alton, Illi
nois on the basis of her achievements in
the past. She will live on the campus
for 1 year and may then transfer to
Michigan University.
Peggy McNeill was awarded a half
tuition, 1 year scholarship to Central
YMCA College in Chicago. This schol
arship was given after an exam for the
applicants.
Bob Pasek’s scholarship to the North
western Institute of Technology in Ev
anston was awarded on the records of
his high school career and grades. Bob’s
scholarship is for one year, but can be
renewed thereafter.
