BRIDGES Superintendent of Schools, Athletic Council EBERLY HAMMACK Principal, Speech, Athletic Council MARGUERITE MOERY Vice-Principal, Dean of Girls, Chairman of Pub- lications Council, Sponsor of Senior Class It is not often we have a chance to express our appreciation for the three heads of our high school. And appreciative we certainly are, for they have all shown us perfect examples of superb and efficient direction. First, a salute to our new principal, Mr. Ham- mack! How quickly he became one of us! His cheery Hello' and his helping hand have en- deared him to the students of Highlands. Our executive was born in Evansville, Indiana, on December 24, 1907. For his A.B. degree he attended Western Kentucky State Teachers Col- lege, did graduate work at Peabody Teachers College, and was granted his M.A. degree by the University of South Dakota. From 1928 to 1931 our principal taught at Union County High School, but his executive ability was early recog- nized, and he became head of Morton Gap High School in 1932. Then in 1938, after six successful years as principal, Mr. Hammack accepted the position of District Superintendent of Research and Records of thirty-two Western Kentucky counties. However, in 1942 the teach- ing profession called him, this time to serve as principal of Nortonville High School. In 1943, he was summoned to Morganfield High School, again to serve as principal. Next Mr. Ham- mack came to — well, to a little school called Highlands. We heartily welcome him and ex- press our hope that he will be with us for many years to come. Teacher, coach, principal, superintendent — these are all in the record of our commander-in- chief, Mr. Russell E. Bridges. Because he has held so many different positions and filled each so well, he is splendidly qualified to understand the problems of both faculty and students. He deserves the loyal support of the entire school system, and we know such support is whole- heartedly his. Miss Marguerite Moery has been at our beck and call as adviser for so long we hardly know what we would do without her. She is always at her post not just as vice-principal but as guide and friend to us all. We can scarcely realize how much she does for us from day to day, month to month and year to year. How she manages to perform her multitudinous duties so efficiently is the $64 question. MRS. JOHN R. BURT LOUETTA L. GREENO ^WILLIAMETTA BAKER ANNA E. COOPER CHARLES ALLPHIN MRS. HARRY S.

These four, Charlotte Huddleston, Jack Valz, Jacque- line Nulsen, secretary-treasurer of the Delegate Assembly, and Bill Reeves, president of the Delegate Assembly, were graciously chaperoned by Mrs. John C. Taylor. When Highlands' representatives came back, they brought new ideas and loads of enthusiasm. Their reports of the conference made us con- scious of the importance of student government organizations in high schools.
r I L 1IS1IIII The Delegate Assembly responded wholeheartedly to suggestions made by our delegates and to the helpful ideas of Mr. Hammack, faculty ad- viser. Hall duty was resumed, and members were given supervision of lunchroom conduct with authority to issue detention slips for infraction of rules. Finally a Student Court, presided over by J. C. McFarland, president of the Student Council, was established. That the highest type of conduct and service might be recognized, the Delegate Assembly voted to present an award to the senior boy and girl contributing most to Highlands High School, not in scholarship or athletics, but in good school citizenship. Also at the suggestion of the Delegate Assembly, the student body made a substantial contribution to the "Save the Children Federation." Student government has proved itself at Highlands and has become a very necessary organization, not alone for the helpful service it renders, but also for the valuable training it affords. HH SUH STEA 1 Mr. Waddell, Mrs. Burt, Mrs. Ebner, Mr. Hammack, Miss Welker, Miss Grceno, Mr Law, Miss Moory, Mrs. Burns, Mrs Joseph Heavern, Mrs. Kellogg. Each Thursday a group of mothers is in- vited to visit classes, tour the buildings, and then meet the faculty for tea served by Miss Greeno in the home economics room. We think the intimate atmosphere created by such a small informal group fosters sympathy and understanding be- tween parents and teachers. 20 MURIEL LEE BAHLMAN "There is a garden in her face, Where roses and white lilies grow."

Snyder. The 1946 season found fhe Highland Blue- birds with a veteran backfield, but a new line. This year also brought a new coach, Mr. Wil- liam McClure, to Highlands' staff, already strongly fortified with Mr. Waddell, head coach, and his aides, Mr. Law and Mr. Sadosky. Practice began on August 14 in preparation for the first game to be played with the Camp- bell County Camels. In this game the fans saw not only a new team, but brand new uniforms —gold pants, blue jerseys, and black helmets. The Birds scored an easy victory, and the final score was Highlands 45, Campbell 0. Much tougher than the Camels were the next opponents, the Dayton Greendevils, and although the outcome was not so pleasing to Highlands followers as that of the previous week, the game was hard fought. Final score. Dayton 20, Highlands 0. On September 20 Erlanger Lloyd's Jugger- nauts rolled down upon the Bluebirds, only to find themselves outclassed by the Highlanders who chalked up another victory by a score of 32 to 7. That over-confidence may spell near disaster was illustrated in the game against Beechwood. The Tigers, reckoned the weaker team, held the Birds scoreless until late in the second quarter. Then the home team's attack began to roll, and three times in five minutes the visitors' goal line was crossed. The final tally, Highlands 33, Beechwood 0. The spectators who witnessed the tilt with Bellevue saw Highlands at its peak, despite the absence of Pendery and Mann. At the final gun the Birds had 42 points and held their opponents scoreless. The fourth quarter was played almost entirely by reserves, but when Bellevue threatened, the regulars returned to the game and Bellevue's dream of a touchdown vanished. 41 They can't take it sitting down. Bernie and Judge look worried. Next the Newport Wildcats - Highlands' chief rival! Although many considered the result a toss-up, the Cats proved no match for the Birds. Two touchdowns by Wiggins and one by Schneider gave Highlands 18 points to New- port’s one lone marker. The team trampled Ludlow the following Fri- day. Confident, yet cautious, the backfield turned in its usual fine performance while the strong line remained unshaken. With a string of five wins to their credit, the Highlanders met their severest test at Ash- land. The only touchdown for the Birds came in the first half when Schneider ran 69 yards. McFarland kicked the game’s winning point. Ashland's touchdown came as the result of a stolen ball play. The Bluebirds believed the whistle had blown and relaxed. An Ashland man snatched the ball and started for the goal. Dick Quehl brough him down on Highlands' 18-yard line. From this point Anson passed for a touch- down. Wagner saved the game for Highlands by blocking the attempt for the extra point. The next tilt was with Covington Holmes. The contest was close with both teams threatening to score, but the winning touchdown was scored by Holmes. This defeat by no means lessened the prestige of the Bluebirds, for in the Bulldogs they had encountered what proved to be the best team in the state. The last game of the season was played at Dixie Heights. Although reputedly one of the best teams in the conference, the Colonels were no match for Highlands. Duke Schneider scored three times and McFarland added two extra points. The game ended with Highlands on the long end of a 20 to 0 score in the most success- ful season since 1943. Honey's still in the huddle. End of a perfect game. A good game, Duke! Even teams that feed on glory and drink the praises of the loyal fans need something more substantial for building brawn, and this real meat and bread was present at the banquet held in honor of the team at the end of the season. Mr. Waddell, Mr. Sadosky, Mr. Law, and Mr. McClure summed up the highlights of a successful season and praised the members of the team. Mr. Hammack acted as toastmaster and introduced the guest speaker, Dr. O'Don- nell of Eastern State Teachers College. Letters were presented to Jay McFarland, Harold Wiggins, Ben Mann, Dick Quehl, Harry Quehl, Ed Johnson, Jerry Wagner, Jerry Thress, John Roman, Robert Faust, Leon Sarakatsannis, Howard Schneider, Ronny Pendery, Bill Harvey, Mark Stuntebeck, Tom Otto, Robert Calhoun, Larry Hicks, Robert Harris, Harold Ziegler, Tom Robertson, Bert Bathiany, Jim Daunt, Dan Zie- gler, Don Grimme, and Blaine Moore. In addi- tion, there were numerals for the reserve squad, trophies for the letter-men, and a special honor plaque for Jay McFarland. Jerry Thress was elected captain and John Roman alternate captain for 1947 and both received good wishes for a successful season next year. The HIGHLANDER thinks it fitting to set down here the names of those boys who, as seniors, played their last season for their high school: Jay McFarland, Harold Wiggins, Dick Quehl, Harry Quehl, Jerry Wagner, Ronny Pendery, Ben Mann, Bert Bathiany, Bob Harris, Don Risch, Leon Sarakatsannis, Larry Hicks, and Harold Ziegler—the super Thirteen.

In the Panthers the Birds met a team which had already played eight games. This experience proved the deciding factor as Ludlow trounced the Birds 46-25. The second contest of the season was played at the home gym with Dayton. The High- lands squad showed much improvement and led 17-14 at the half, but a field goal by Wing in the final seconds gave Dayton the game. Final score: Highlands 32, Dayton 35. On December 20 the Birds went to Bellevue to meet the Tigers and there experienced their third straight loss. The final score: Bellevue 30, Highlands 25. The first victory of the year came at the ex- pense of the Simon Kenton Pioneers. Our lead was never threatened and the final score was Highlands 38, Simon Kenton 24. Fresh from their first victory, the Bluebirds traveled to Lexington to play the Lafayette Generals. Highlands took an early lead and was still ahead at the half, but the pace proved too strong, and we were defeated 43-34. On January 10 Highlands was defeated by the Camels in our home gym 49-34. The Bluebirds scored their second victory the following night as they bested the Trains of Silver Grove by the score of 33-20. The Beechwood Tigers were the next oppon- ents for the Bluebirds, but again Highlands lost by the score of 42-32. The Birds suffered their seventh defeat on the following night at the hands of the Covington Bulldogs. The final score: Holmes 43, High- lands 36. In their second game with Dayton, the Birds met stronger opposition and suffered a 37-24 defeat. Bottom Row: B Moore, Stuntebeck, J. Moore, Waltrip, H. Schneider, R.

On the next evening Highlands dropped a hard fought contest to Newport by a single point. The Birds grabbed an early lead and maintained it until the final 20 seconds. Lloyd proved another stumbling block to the Bluebirds, as they defeated Highlands 39-31. The second game of the season with the Campbell County Camels was a repetition of the first. The score, however, was much closer, the Camels winning 32-28. Mr. Bridges keeps his hand in. The girls give at a pep meeting. Bellevue game. Serie's got it. The next opponent was Dixie Heights. The Birds were no match for the high-scoring Colo- nels and lost 45 to 3 I. Highlands avenged their early season defeat by the Ludlow Panthers in their next game. The Birds were ahead all the way and were never threatened. Showing continual improvement, Highlands trounced the Newport Wildcats with ease by the score of 42-29. Next the Birds suffered their second defeat at the hands of the Holmes men. Final score: Covington 44, Highlands 38. Silver Grove proved no match for the improved Bluebird team and was beaten by a 47-29 score. The final game of the regular season was played with Beechwood, the home team emerg- ing on the long end of a 27-25 score. The district tournament found Highlands matched with Dayton in the first game. This was the third time these teams had met and Dayton kept a clean record by again defeating Highlands. This contest climaxed a season in which High- lands had won seven games and lost 14. We proved, however, that early season defeats were due to lack of experience. All of us are proud of the fine spirit of the team and of the perseverance of our coaches, Mr. Anderson, Mr. Law, and Mr. McClure. Captain Jerry Wagner led the team in scoring for the year with 155 points. In an assembly program letter certificates were awarded to seniors Jerry Wagner, Bert Bathiany, Larry Hicks, and Leon Sarakatsannis. The other lettermen of the squad were Tom Otto, Duke Schneider, Bob Faust, Ed Johnson, Blaine Moore, and Gene Klingman. Practice makes perfect. Fledgling Bluebirds. COACHES SADOSKY AND JONES H 1 u Top: Mile relay at Bellevue. Middle: Bathiany qualifies at state meet. Bottom: Finish of the 100-yard at Bellevue. The first track meet of the 1946 season pitted the fleet Bluebirds against Campbell County. We took 10 firsts out 14 events, Jack Bahlman winning the high and low hurdles and the broad jump. Mann and Bathiany, the Bluebird speed- sters, ran a dead heat in the 100-yard dash in 10.3 seconds. The final results put Highlands on top with 84 points, while the Camels scored 34. The next meet for Highlands was a triangular engagement with St. Xavier and Bellevue. We met tough competition from the Cincinnati school, but emerged victorious. High honors again went to Jack Bahlman, who scored vic- tories on the high and low hurdles and the broad jump. The final score was: Highlands 6O/2, St. Xavier 52, and Bellevue 36. Highlands scored its greatest victory in win- ning the K. of C. relays at Withrow on May 4, in which schools from Southern Ohio competed. During this exciting contest, firsts were scored by Bahlman in the broadjump and by our sprint medley relay team. Top scores were: Highlands 53/o, Lockland 52, Plainville 44. On April 30 Highlands traveled to Holmes for a dual match with the Bulldogs, who won by a score of 62-52. The district meet was held on May II, the decisive battle to determine the participants for the State contest. Highlands and Holmes were the chief rivals; however, the results were: Holmes 48/2. Highlands 44, Bellevue 25/2, Newport 21, Campbell County II, and Beech- wood 3. The Highland Relays were held on May 13, with Holmes again triumphing. The top scorers: Holmes 42, Highlands 39, and Bellevue 27. At the Kentucky State meet, Louisville Male was the victor, Manual was second, while High- lands took third honors, finally defeating its rival, Holmes, who placed fourth. Highlands' team captain, Jack Bahlman, was the individual high scorer with 14 points, and Ziegler took first in the pole vault. The final contest of the season was the N. K. A. C. at Bellevue. The score: Holmes 70, Highlands 37/2, Bellevue 30/;. Newport 22, Campbell County 18%. 48 SENIORS ON SQUAD: Bottom Row. Mann, Wiggins, Sarakatsannis. Quehl, Robertson, Bathiany.

This is the tune warbled under the spray of a cold shower by Glenna Ertel, Shirley Tieman and Jane Rauch, the only three girls to claim the coveted G. A. A. white letter this year. While the boys are busy with their seasonal athletics, the girls from the ninth to the twelfth grades are also actively engaged in sports. This is made possible by the Girls Athletic Associa- tion, under the guidance of Mrs. Harry Collins. Opening the season with volley ball, the girls played this popular sport for four months. After training hard, our female Bluebirds went to meet the Bellevue G. A. A., whom they con- quered in a closely contested game ending 23-19. it was decided that basketball and ping pong be played simultaneously. As a climax to the season a basketball assembly program was held in which the Seniors beat the Juniors 12-5, and the Freshmen conquered the Sophomores 12-6. This was not the extent of the club's activity, however, for every Wednesday they journeyed to Newport to bowl.

If the team on which she plays wins, she receives ten points, and when she has four hundred points, she gains her G. A. A. pin. Of the group of 68 members, ten girls claimed pins this year, while five lasses received guards for their pins. When a girl has a total of 1200 points, she gloriously claims her blue letter. If, after much hard work, she has a grand total of 1600 points, she is awarded the white letter, the height of G. A. A. glory.

During football season the band was seen every Friday night strutting its way down the field, the drum major and majorettes in white, and the band in blue, forming a beautiful pat- Binder, Bahlman, Leggott, Downs, Frickman, Swenson. novel show was put on, ranging all the way from well-executed military routines to boogie- woogie. These boys and girls really have spirit, too. Cold or rainy weather does not stop them, as was proved by the Ashland football game. Al- though the field was a bog of mud, and icy rain was pouring down, the members of the band went on to the field and put on their per- formance as gaily as they would have done under a harvest moon. The services of the band are solicited by many organizations, and it always makes a fine showing. One of the most important of these occasions was their participation in the dedica- tion of the Boone County Airport. Each year, according to tradition, the High- land Band presents four concerts, displaying the ability of the band to play all types of music. The popularity of these concerts has reached such proportions that many music lovers have had to be turned away because of lack of seat- ing space in the auditorium. Annually the band, both as a unit and as individuals, enters the Northern Kentucky Music Festival at which in past years it has always rated superior. The fifty band members and the six high-stepping majorettes certainly de- serve it, too, for they work hard to make their organization a good one. The band practices at least three times a week, and this time is put to good use, for our band has become not only a superior musical unit but also a superior marching group. The six majorettes put in many hours of prac- tice, too, and as a result they have perfected a number of well-coordinated routines. These girls were also rated superior at state last year as reward for their tireless effort. Who is responsible for making the Highland Band the fine organization it is? None other than the director, James B. McKenna, better known as Mac. It is through his years of hard work and unrelenting effort that the Highland Band has gained its reputation as one of the best known and most popular musical organiza- tions in Northern Kentucky. Seniors graduate and fine musicians are lost, but "Mac" always manages to keep his music tops and the band playing on. 5 5 Caroling choristers. A hush falls over the auditorium. The curtains part, and on the stage the chorus begins its opening number. This a familiar sight to the students at Highlands, for the chorus often par- ticipates in school programs throughout the year. The melodious voices of our choristers have thrilled us many times. The chorus meets once a week to practice its large repertoire of songs ranging all the way from sober themes to rollicking folk music. Mr. EMERY T.

Emery Jones is the director of our fine chorus, and it is through his patience and understanding that we have such a well-organized vocal de- partment. Any student in the tenth, eleventh, or twelfth grades who has an acceptable voice and a basic knowledge of music is qualified to be a member. The most impressive and inspiring program during the school year is the Christmas pageant. One could never forget the simple effectiveness of the chorus, attired in their white robes, sing- ing the Christmas carols. The tableaux of the birth of Christ, presented at this program by members of the chorus, make an unforgettable picture. This year Norma Stegeman and Bob Harris portrayed the Virgin Mary and Joseph. Other members of the chorus took part as the three kings, the shepherds, and the angels. Our chorus is enjoyed not only by the student body but by many adults as well. At various times during the year the group presents pro- grams for different organizations, among them the Parent-Teacher Association. Although the entire chorus does not travel to the state contest, Highlands has always been well represented by vocalists either as soloists, in trios, or in quartets. Regional contests pre- cede the state contest, which was held this year at the University of Kentucky, April 24-26. In the spring everyone looks forward to the music festival, a combined program presented by the band and the chorus. Each year this program is becoming more popular. One can easily see that the chorus is not only an asset to our school but to the community as well. 57 Bottom Row: L. Breitenstein. Houliston. B. Breitenstein. C. Wagoner, Rebeck, Floyd. Tieman.

II R A M A An eerie scream resounds through the auditorium as a dead man falls from the closet. Everyone is horrified! What has happened? Don't get too excited! It's only the stage-struck members of the sen- ior dramatic class presenting an exciting scene from "Two Gentlemen and Verona. This year, for the first time, Highlands' theatrical aspirants have learned more about the stage through organized dramatic classes. A regular course of study was followed, enabling students to learn not only to interpret plays more expertly, but also to master stage terms and the art of production. The first contribution of the class was an assembly program during American Education Week. A choral reading was given by the group in order to promote an interest in a world-wide education program, and a touching story of an imagined second Crucifixion was related by Gladys Rebeck. To close the inspiring assembly, Muriel Bahlman led the students in General Eisenhower's prayer for peace. Later in the fall the seniors presented "The Best There Is," one of the annual three one-act plays which told the simple, sincere story of a young girl who, through My little gypsy sweetheart. the aid of a cranky, old rich man, attempted to get the best for her sick father. For another of the three productions the junior and senior classes united to enact "A Nobleman in Disguise," a sparkling gypsy romance with a touch of comedy. In March the seniors presented the first of its two three-act plays entitled "Two Gentlemen and Verona." Here were unfolded the rollicking experiences of a young group of stage aspirants willing to go to any extreme to receive Hollywood contracts. To make the production of this play easier, the class elected Harriet Hunt, president, and Lois Breitenstein, secretary, and divided into committees to work as carpenters, scenic artists, and clever seam- stresses. With their final three-act play in May the seniors completed one of the most successful dramatic seasons, both financially and profes- sionally, that Highlands has enjoyed for many years.

A II 1 DEPARTMENT Leaving behind the more prosaic scenes of school life, our would-be Michaelangelos and Leonardo da Vincis descend the stairs to Miss Payne's art room, where they forget all about Shakespeare and theorems for a brief hour of recreational bliss. Indeed, in the midst of their handiwork it is a rare moment when one of these eager students realizes that regular school work lies only a few minutes ahead. But, although these artists may not call it work, real effort is required to produce the many types of art displayed about the room. Here are beautifully designed belts, so popular with the girls; there, bright posters, ready to be entered in the "Clean-up, Paint-up, and Beau- tiy" contest. Pounding hammers, skillfully guided tools! The result? A piece of unromantic leath- er is transformed into a beautiful wallet; a small, unvarnished scrap of wood becomes an attractive jewelry box; pieces of chalk and sheets of plain brown paper are combined to form a gay mural of Chaucer's Pilgrims. Nor was the annual slighted by our artists. Linder the able direction of Miss Payne, art sponsor, and of Ben Wahl, art editor, the class labored cheerfully to create the delightful sketches found throughout this book. With scholastic credit offered to these bud- ding artists for the first time this year, enthusi- asm and hard work have combined to keep this department one of Highlands' finest. 61 r i L ri L Bottom Row; Schwartz, Mills, Anderson, Pendery, Marsh, Irwin, Hogan, Wright, Melville.

Many of Highlands' future Patrick Hen- rys and Daniel Websters have been learn- ing the art of speaking under the capable leadership of Mrs. Burt and Mr. Hammack. Even though regular speech classes are new, they have become a definite part of the curriculum as the need for them be- comes more apparent every day. The members of the classes have taken an active part in many school programs. Kenny Pendery, Muriel Bahlman, and Ann Mueller represented Highlands on the radio for the Junior Town Meeting. Jim Moore, Jim Zonnevylle, and Louis Schnier introduced speakers and led prayers at our Thanksgiving service in the auditorium. Four members of the class spoke at the Robert Johnson American Legion Post during American Education Week, and ar our annual Christmas Pageant, Bill Har- vey read us the Bible story of the Nativi- ty. Every student at Highlands was very proud of Marian Austin, who, after win- ning first place in the District Discussion Contest, ranked third at State and came home with a check for forty dollars. In the district speech contests held late in March, the following students repre- sented Highlands: Ann Mueller, interpre- tive prose reading; Dorothy Kasson, mono- logue; Jim Zonnevylle, oratorical decla- mation; and Ed Johnson, extemporaneous speaking. The large number of students who tried out for these various events has definitely proved the extensive popularity of this department. Ashbroolc has a rapt audience. Marian warms up for discussion. 62 Under the sponsorship of Mr. Elliott the Sperti Science Club has again been one of our outstanding school organizations. Three delegates, John Addams, president of the club, Nancy Collins, and Mark Johnson, attended a conference of science clubs at East- ern State Teachers College in October. The theme of the conference was the enlargement and betterment of the Kentucky Junior Acad- emy of Science. An exact scale topographical map of Fort Thomas was selected as the project this year. A contour map of the city was secured and enlarged to a scale of one foot to one mile. The map was then transferred to a large plywood board, the terrain built up with papier mache, and models of churches, schools, and other prominent buildings placed in their proper loca- tions. With this map the club competed for a prize at the annual convention which was held in Maysville. The club undertook to study all phases of science, with emphasis on aeronautics, and gave students a chance to experiment with- out interrupting organized classes. Bottom Row: Scott.

Just as the football team has made stout- hearted men of our boys, so the home eco- nomics department has founded a club to make efficient homemakers of our little women. After all, girls, that is what we expect to be, isn't it? The Future Homemakers of America, a national organization, has completed its first year at Highlands—and indeed a very profitable year, with Miss Louetta Greeno as sponsor and Gladys Rebeck as president. The day of the call-of-the-roll, dry-talk-on- education, serve-a-cookie-and-weak-punch meet- ing seems to have disappeared forever. By planning its program for the entire year, the club was able to meet state and national quali- fications. Its main purposes are to promote a growing appreciation for homemaking and to plan entertaining programs for the student body. To this newest of our organizations we wish the best of luck as it moves forward toward new horizons. win imiunns i! multi 66 I H H Over these Kentucky hills the Red Man once roamed, and here and there we can still find arrow-heads of flint, which arouse thoughts of those far-off days and of the primitive race that shaped these weapons. Many of us are eager to emulate their feats of skill with bow and arrow. Since we are too civilized (or too afraid of the law) to take our fellows or our dogs for targets, we join the Archery Club, buy our targets, instead of choosing them at will, and proceed to practice the ancient sport of Robin Hood and William Tell. In our own school sphere, that age old problem, "Who is the better, the boy or the girl?", is determined in the club’s boy-girl archery meets. Although that problem has not as yet been solved, there have been heated bat- tles, with excellent marksmanship displayed on both sides. Then in order to match our skill with that of archers in other schools, "mail" meets are held. By means of Uncle Sam's postal system, Highlands enters into contests with Covington, Western Hills, and Norwood. Each team sends its scores to the other competing schools, the sponsors tabulate the scores, and the winning team is announced. Clubs spring up, flourish, and die, sometimes to be revived and sometimes not, but High- lands' Archery Club thrives and grows more popular as the years go by. Bottom Row: Doty, Frommel.

11 Another issue of the Hilltopper goes to press, Pat writes "thirty" on the last article, the staff breathes a sigh of relief, Mrs. Burt relaxes for another week, and Ben, our patient printer, takes another Bromo. These scenes have been reenacted twenty times during the past year, once for each of the steadily improving issues of Highlands' school paper. A class in journalism was inaugurated this year and proved to be an invaluable aid in improving the paper. "Yellow Journalism" was avoided by students' learning the essentials of good feature, sports, and news writing. Mrs. Mary F. Burt, a newcomer at Highlands, taught the class. Under her direction the motto, "At least one improvement in every issue," was adopted. An assembly was presented in late November in honor of the Hilltopper's tenth anniversary. Our paper has really grown up! Dr. Frank Byers, assistant professor of English at the Uni- versity of Cincinnati, and Mr. R. E. Bridges ad- dressed the entire student body. Another of the year's memorable events was the press conference at Lexington. At this conference the paper was criticized and its outstanding and unusual features noted. Next year's staff was chosen at the annual press banquet. The editors of both publications addressed the group. Sponsors presented merit awards to those who had done outstanding work during the year, and everyone extended hearty good wishes to the new staff for success in 1947-48. 11111111 With the last page of copy in and the 1947 annual in the hands of the printer, the staff can smile and return to the carefree days of long ago. No more sessions with T-squares, snapshots, and dummies. No more frantic let- ters to Mr. Benson. No more rushing and hurrying to get everything shipshape. But there were good times, too — times when everything went smoothly, times when Scotty was gay and tea was bubbling away in the kettle. We laughed, worked, argued — and loved every minute of it. Harriet cracked the whip and forth came literary masterpieces; Ben worried us into pro- ducing a dozen different sketches, but the final product was worth the grind; Andee counted the pennies; while Nornie, with nary a qualm, turned the camera on anything and everything. In the end, out of the confusion, the 1947 HIGHLANDER was produced. May this thirty- first yearbook be the best in the annals of H. H. S. The Hilltopper is just one big happy family. 5 P.M.—Highlander has tea and crumpets. Bottom Row: Losey.

Cameras clicked, young photographers rushed to the dark room, and gay little, cute little, happy little pictures were hurried to the annual staff. With Norma Stegeman, the president, directing the activities of these budding pho- tographers, and Mr. Charles Allphin, as their sponsor, the club more than did its share to make the bi-weekly issues of the Hilltopper attractive and to give to the pages of this HIGHLANDER "snaps" that will in the future recall to our minds many pleasant memories of the time "when we went to Highlands High." Carol goes diagrammatic. ffteile lectures to Mills, Kolo and Ervin. 70
Royalty: Louis Moore and Jane Lee Knaebel. M A Y The eighteenth annual Health and Physi- cal Education Program of the Fort Thomas Public Schools was presented May 28, 1946, at eight o'clock. This is the one oc- casion of the year which brings together all the school children of our city. The various groups presented a display of the year's regular activities to show that our Fort Thomas students are fitting them- selves into the new world pattern. The theme was "Fitness for the American Way of Life." Following the parade of flags by the tenth grade girls, the King and Queen of Health, Louis Moore and Jane Lee Knae- bel, and their attendants entered in sol- emn procession. The trumpeters repre- sented Woodfill School, while the crown bearers were from Johnson School and the train bearers from Moyer School. The other attendants were eleventh and twelfth grade girls. Blue ribbon attendants. Their majesties clear the flower hoops. Learning of different types of folk games from the Old World is one means of developing fitness for the American way of living and also of fostering friendliness and neighborliness to- ward other countries of the world. Some of the games and dances were "Ribbon Dance," Mazoo, ' "How Do You Do My Partner," "Swinging," and "The Oxen Dance." The junior and senior high boys presented tumbling and apparatus activities, as evidence of the best type of exercise for stamina and initiative. To complete the program, the eighth and ninth grade girls did the traditional "Maypole Dance." Requiring skill, endurance, and perfect team work, it emphasized the spirit of the oc- casion. The presentation of the coveted Blue Ribbon awards brought to a close another beau- tiful Health and Play Festival — Highlands tra- ditional May Day.
