Christmas Can Not Be Commercialized
Unless The Individual Makes It So
CHRISTMAS is so commercialized” and “ Let’s put Christ back
back into Christmas” are two of the most familiar cries which may
be heard and spoken by so many people during this season of the
year. No doubt many NUehi students have made these same remarks
time and time again. Maybe everyone is a little tired of seeing bill
board Santa Clauses selling Christmas cartons of cigarettes and
cartoons of tiny cherubic creatures representing the angel of Beth
lehem. Perhaps you’re tired of seeing the Christ crossed out of
Christmas and written as “ Xmas” instead.
These are the things which have been seen and heard in the
past few days; however, don’t take them too seriously. If you
do it means that you are falling into the group of cynics who
mutter “ Christmas is so commercialized” and other such things.
If you don’t it means that you’re celebrating this day not because
of the gifts, the mistletoe, or the decorated trees, but because of
an incident which occurred in such a remote part of the world
and yet, still lives today. Remember foremost in your mind;
The Christ child came first and then followed the Christmas
trees, Santa Claus, and Christmas presents.

Dr. Mason Attends
National Conference
ALONG with 73 other Illinois re
presentatives at the first White
House Conference on Education
ever held in United States history
was Dr. Joseph Mason, Nileh^s
superintendent.
Beginning with an address by
vice-president Nixon, the confer
ence held November 28 through
Dec. 1, was made up of govern
ors, senators, labor union repre
sentatives, P.T.A. members, col
lege presidents, private and pa
rochial school teachers, school
principals and superintendents,
from every state of the Union.
There were more laymen at
the conference, (those not en
gaged in the field of education)
than those in it.
FED ERAL support for school
house construction was one of the
two main topics discussed. With
an agreement on the proposal, two
to one, it was stated that help for
school house construction should
be given for a demonstrated need
and that both the state and the
local community should contribute
their share.
Federal financial aid for the
operation of schools, the other
main topic, was agreed upon by
50% of the members. Those in
favor, however, felt that the feder
al government should not have
control of the schools.
“ What should our schools ac
complish?” , “ In what ways can
we organize our school systems
more efficiently and economical
ly?” , “ What are our school
building needs?” , “ How can we
get enough good teachers and
keep them?” , and “ How can we
finance our schools — building
and operating them?”
were
other questions discussed.
“ I felt that here was democracy
in action,” answered Dr. Mason,
when asked his personal feeling
about the conference. “ Here was
an assembly of concerned persons,
sitting down to provide better
schools for their children. And, al
though there were many different
points of view, they were all heard
and considered on their merit.
“ I also shook hands with vicepresidents Nixon,” Dr. Mason dis
closed smiling proudly.

The program, under the direction
of Mr. Hugh McGee and Mrs. Rita

Tableaus, corresponding to the
mood of the music accompanied

of the reasons that Nilehi has five
new students from Germany.
ANITA KOBOWICZ, 16 years old
and a sophomore, came to this
country because both of her par
ents were killed in the war. She

Skokie, and has been in America
for four years.

Axel Denk, 16 years of age,
came to this country with his
father to escape the Communists
and so his father might find
better work. He has been in this
country for two months but has
lived in Canada for the past
three years. Axel is a freshman
and is the vice-president of the
newly formed German Club.
(
KLAUS SCHNEIDER, president
of the German Club, is also 16
years old and is a freshman.

Miss Nutt
Mr. Haubrich
A G REAT aunt to eleven nieces
and nephews, and sister to a Calif
ornia aeronautical engineer and a
Tex*as teacher, is Miss Mary Nutt,
Nilehi’s new business education
teacher.
BORN IN Taylorville, Illinois,
where she went to high school, she
received her A. B. degree at Mac
Murray College and her M. Ed.
degree at the University of Hlinois.
Traveling, especially to South
ern California and Santa Fe,
New Mexico, is one of Miss
Nutt’s hobbies. Reading, sewing,
knitting, and shopping are also
favorite pastimes, along with
her love for music. She plays
the clarinet and piano, and sings.
“ Frank, forward, and friendly,”
that’s what Mr. Vernon Haubrich
thinks about Nilehi.
How could you like to get up
every morning at 6 a.nv and ride
the committer’s special to and
from Kenosha, Wisconsin, just to
come to school? Well, according to
Mr. Haubrich, that’s what he does
every day to teach at Niles.
Before coming to Nilehi, Mr.
Haubrich attended the University
of Wisconsin, where he received
his Bachelor, Master, and Doctor
degrees. While still in college he
got married, worked as a machin
ist and also as a mattress cons
tructor.
Mr. Haubrich is one of the U.S.
history teachers.
' > THE NEWEST of the five to
come to this country is Christine
Waltrich, who came from Buda
pest, Hungary. Christine came to
Glenview because her aunt sent
for her. She speaks no English at
all but is learning fast.

The last of the new German
students is Helga Eneelmohr.
Helga is a freshman this year
at Niles and is 15 years old. She
has been in this country seven
months and came over because
her mother died and her father
was working here as an engi
neer. he lives in Morton Grove

bert Rambis were planning to at
tend a bridge tournament. They
suddenly changed their minds,
though, when they heard that it
was for mixed couples. Neither
wished to dress up with a wig
and a skirt.
*
ALOT OF changes have come
over Nilehi during the past 11
years, and to prove it here are
some facts from the 1944 year
book.
TO START the year off with a
bang, the Trojans accomplished
the feat of selling enough bonds
and stamps, in two days, to buy
three jeeps for the war.
A new tradition was started
that year, although not upheld.
It was the choosing of “ Helen of
Troy.” All students who had
purchased yearbooks were per
mitted to cast votes for the
beauty of Nilehi. The final voting
limited the choice to three girls
and was admitted to John Pow
ers, head of the famous model
agency.
THE TROJAN cagers that year
beat the Evanston basketball team
41-36. In the Northeast Conference,
Niles came out on top with 7 wins
and no losses.
BO T USHERS? Yes, that year
a third of the Ushers Club was
made up of boys.
*
*
*
Are yon superstitious? Well,
there are two boys around the
halls of Nilehi who have some of
these strange beliefs and don’t
mind saying so.
FR A N K T R A P PE R , junior, says
that if he is a father someday he
will not permit his child to look
in a mirror for a year — he is
afraid the child win never grow
any teeth if he sees his own reflec
tion.
ANOTHER
JUNIOR,
Charlie
Berndt, touches everything twice
so that he won’t have bad luck.
•
* •' *
The detention blues, this might
be a symptom of other Nilehiers
as well as junior, Mort Eckman.
Mort Was complaining to his
homeroom teacher, Mrs. Ida
McGuire, about all the detentions
he’ s been getting. To his re
mark that he collected eight
hours of detention in one day,
Mrs. McGuire replied, “ You’ve
been a busy little man, haven’t
you?”

Mr. Mike Basrak was quite over
whelmed when his period 6 prob

birthday party last month. In gra
titude the coach postponed the
class’ scheduled test until the
following Monday, and the hour
was happily spent devouring the
birthday cake and cokes the stu
dents had brought.

are a few of the many things
Rosemary Nitsche, a fun loving
senior girl, finds pleasure in.
“ THERE IS nothing that I really
dislike,” Rosie went on, but after
she thonght awhile she came up
with jitterbugging, and television
quiz shows.
The activities and organiza

are the National Thespian So

National Honor Society. This
year she is in the Swim Club,
chairman of an S.S.S.H., and the

DRAKE OR Wisconsin are the'
two colleges foremost in her mind
at the moment. She plans to major
in applied or commercial art.
“ M Y MAIN ambition,” replied
Rosie, “ is the same as most girls

already guessed, to get married.
Also I want to get a Ph. D. Her
secret ambition is to ride in a fox
hunt. Knowing that this was a
little different, she explained, “ I
love to ride horseback and have
always wanted to jump fences, on
a horse.”
Unmannerly boys is high on
her list of pet peeves. Her re
action to bad manners is, and
she said this very emphatically,
“ just awful.”
RIDING, art, and science-fiction
reading are her three most fa v
ored hobbies.
“ BEING INDUCTED into the
National Honor Society in my jun

A BUSY beaver around Nilehi
with always something to do is
senior, Roger Simpson.
ROG’S likes include good food,
popular music, doing good deeds
around Nilehi, athletics, A.V.A.
work and lighting, and school
sponsored dances.
He has been on the football
team for four years, received a
major “ N ” in his junior and
senior years, wrestling team for
four years, major “ N ” in wrestl
ing, A.V.A. Club, «la v crews,
eflections, Water Show, home

more, junior, and senior years,
Hi-Y. He hopes to be on the
Spring Musicale lighting crew.
ROG HAD a pretty hard time
trying to think of his dislikes but
finally came up with this one:
Nilehi students who don’t attend
the wrestling matches. “ I think
students who don’t attend these
’unknown’ sports have very poor
school spirit,”
he commented
quite disgustedly.
“ M Y pet peeve is girls who
don’t likt to jitterbug,” he laughed.
Like all of us, Rog has a
secret ambition. “ I would like
to go downstate for a wrestling
match,” he said.
HIS M AIN ambition in life is
to go to college and to major in
physical education. “ I would like
to be a wrestling coach,” he re
plied when asked what he wanted
to be when finished with school.
BESIDES being a busy student
around the halls of Nilehi during
schooltime, he spends his sum
mers working for his uncle in a
brick yard in southern Indiana.

“ IT SEEMS like I ’ve been play
ing basketball for years, but I
wasn’t on the team until sopho
more year,” says 6’6” senior Dale
Kaiser.
Dale won his major “ N ” play
ing on the varsity basketball
squad last year.
This year, for the first time, he
went out for football, “ because
everyone asked me to.”
As one of the starting five on
the Trojan squad, Dale broke
the rebound record of 27, set by
Dave Winchester last year when
he made 31 rebounds against
Maine on November 26.
DALE HAS been playing the
drums for five years.
When Louis Armstrong was
playing at the Chicago Theater
this surrimer, Dale went backstage
and “ met all the boys.” He told
them about his interest in drum
ming and was asked to join in a
jam-session.
While attending a dance at Tam
O’Shanter Country Club, Dale
was asked to play the drums. In
spite of the fact that the band had
a drummer, Dale played for the
rest of the evening
Dale’s likes include music,
food, and “ Di.” His favorite
song is “ You Are So Rare To
Me.” A bowl of sauerkraut with
french dressing is his favorite
meal.
AMONG HIS pet peeves are
hard butter, giggly girls, people
who step on ants, and his six-foot
long bed.
