Having fulfiUed its pur- pose so admirably in the past, may it continue to do so in the future. Our Future We, the seniors of 1946, have attended Angola High School for the past four years to prepare ourselves for the future. The war is over and we are going out to help build a lasting peace. Our training here has taught us to uork with and understand the people of our country. Some of us will go out to be leaders; others to follou. , While we were in school, this building was our small world. We looked out at the large world of the future. Noiv we are passing out the door of this building and this " out-of-doors " is our future. For the first time we shall actually experience that uhich we have been looking at for the past four years. We shall miss this small world, but there are many things ahead of us, uhich ue eagerly await. Dedication We, the Class of 1946, grate fully dedicate this annual to Nyal, a former inciuber of our class, who gave his life during this past war, for our future.

Pa, e Thirteen From Cloud to Cloud Why not join us In a trip to the dreamy past as we go from cloud to cloud — viewing each year which the Class of 1946 has spent in the Angola High School? There have been storm clouds as well as those that settle peacefully behind the sun after an April rain. We first explore the Misty Cloud to our left where we remember ourselves as Green Freshies. We somehow imagined ourselves knowing nothing after holding the opinion of knowing it all. Our Special De- livery Cloud brought us Barbara Haley, Betty Whitman, Yvonne Hum- phries, and Margaret Davis — making the total 5 1 at the beginning of the year. Passing from the Misty Cloud to the cloud of Better Visibility — the Express Cloud took Frances Templin, Wayne Stroh, Marilyn Erhardt, Barbara Haley, Bob Carver, Nyal Enfield, Mary Imus, Mervil Ryan, Yvonne Humphries, and Margaret Davis. On the second cloud — representing us as Sophomores — we received Don Robbins, George Call, Bob Davis, Billy Dick, Bob Ferris, Margaret Davis, and Betty Sellinger. By an act of a terrific storm we lost Darrell Goodhew, Betty Sellinger, Billy Dick, Bob Ferris, Ben Ohmart, Margaret Davis, Paul Loman, Mary Richardson, and Fritz Pentico. During our stay on this cloud we initiated the coming inhabitants of the Misty Cloud. As we open our eyes we find ourselves drifting through space and coming to a Sunny Cloud. Pattie Fletter, Wayne Larson, and Ramona Zeis appeared from a strange new cloud; and the sky swallowed Owen Richmond, Don Robbins, Margaret Wolfe, Wayne Larson, Junior Bower- man, Art Hanna, and Kathleen Sutton. During our stay here we had our Spring Dance and Mary Jean Kohl was elected from our class to be May Queen. We also had our Junior Play, " Lady Be Good, " and we were proud participants in the Junior-Senior Banquet. Now as we near the end of this journey in the sky we approach a cloud that is firmly outlined and clearly marks our goal. To view the re- ward with us we received Midge Jones and Yvonne Humphries, and lost Bob Blum, Jim Webb, and George Call when they were cast into the sky. Our class topped the all-time record for Key Annual sales in the Angola High School history. While we were on this last cloud, as was the case on each of the two previous clouds, our boys won the inter-class basketball tourney. We enjoyed parties, the May dance and especially the Junior- Senior Banquet. The class play, baccalaureate and commencement brought to a conclusion our stay on this cloud. Now as our cloud nears earth from the dreamy atmosphere, we alight and prepare to serve in the future. ELEANOR KABEL CAROL SIMS Pa; c Fourteen FIRST GRADE First ro " v: David Smitli, Loene Kiser.

Pai c F ffccJj 1951 Hummm It was time for us to migrate South and since we wanted one last fling before leaving the United States for South America in our smooth little monoplane, the Bluebird, Pattie and I decided to look in on our class, the Class of ' 46. We flew first to New York City. While there we decided to pick up our passports. In the government building where we were to get our passports, whom did we see but our classmate, Bfll Carr. He was chief elevator boy for the whole huge building. Bill told us that there was a lot of responsibility connected with this job but also a lot of salary. As we flew up Wall Street, whom did we find but our friends. Junior Johns and Dave Smith. They were busy at work in their offices of the Johns and Smith Corporation. They told us that if we were to go two more floors up we would find Metta Jean Parr. She was employed as a comptometrist and a very successful one. While in New York, we also saw Bob Elliott in his office. He was now Chief Industrial Chemist for the U. S. Steel Corporation. Flapping our wings goodbye to New York we went on to Washing- ton, D. C. Here we visited the President. The President was Loene Kiser — the first woman president of the United States. She had been elected following the National Kiser Movement. Among her private secretaries were Roma Lee Penick and Mary Jean Kohl. Loene told us that she had just appointed a poet laureate for the United States — this was part of her platform — Eleanor Kabel. Thinking that we wanted a little relaxation, we went on to South Carolina, where we heard an all-man orchestra under the direction of Pat Ritter. The orchestra was featuring tonight two special guest ar- tists, the violinist, Yvonne Humphries, and the vocalist, Betty Lou Whit- man. Going on to Georgia, we found Bob Purdy who had built a dentist ' s practice. The sign on his door said: " The only thing we hurt is your bill- fold. " One of his patients during our visit was Don Nichols, who was now on a lecture tour which was to cover the whole world. Don told us I ' a: c Sixteen 1951 Hummm that he traveled with Frank Jones who went along on the tours to illus- trate Don ' s talks if they got too deep for his audience. Leaving Georgia, we went on to Florida, where whom should we see but Pat Johnson and Midge Jones. They were both happily married and living in the South during the winter months. They told us that Bobbie Hubbard and Jackie Shank were working as stewardesses for an airline which operated from there. Dee Purdy worked for the same airline as a traveler ' s aid. At Miami we took in a dare-devil show, at which we saw Dick Mann and Keith Folck do their now famous act. From Florida we flew clear over to St. Louis, Missouri, where we saw Joan Hobbs busy at work as a nurse in a doctor ' s office. We also found Ellora Dole busy as a filing clerk at the meat packing plant here. Next we went to Colorado, where we saw Nancy Webb, the owner of the famous Webb Kennels here in Colorado. Upon entering Utah, we bumped into Carol Sims who was on one of her many vacation jaunts. She was now headed back home — to Okla- homa. As we were on our way to Los Angeles, we saw Bonnie Powers, who was now living in California. She had just married a very rich man from that state. Going on to Fiollywood, we saw that second Van Johnson, Dick Mondhank. He was really " wowing them. " The bobbysoxers were milling around him so that we had no chance to talk with him. While in Hollywood, we saw Beverly Randolph dressing the hair of the actress, Mona Zeis. We also saw the All Stars play a basketball game. One of the players was none other than our classmate, Bob Bledsoe. Now it was time for the last leg of our journey — the final flight to South America for the winter months. We were to keep a rendezvous with Miss Reed, who was there for a short Spanish course. Saying good- bye to the States, we winged our happy way southward. CHARLOTTE STRAIT PATTIE FLETTER Pa»f Seventeen Last Will ' " e, the Class of ' 46 of Angola High School, situated in the city of Angola in the County of Steuben in the state of Indiana, being in an unusually sound state of mind and memory, do make, publish and declare this our last will and testament, leaving our cherished possessions, which we have accumulated during our four years of high school, to the underclassmen and faculty.

May he have a large enough supply to protect future A. H. S. students from acquiring same. To Miss Reed our Latin Teacher, we will and bequeath Julius Caesar ' s Roman cam- paigns and South America. We hope they will make things easier for her in teaching Latin and Spanish students of tomorrow. To Miss Shultz, English teacher, goes our excess knowledge of English which we shall not need.

Signed: THE SENIOR CLASS " - Per BOB PURDY — BILL CARR Page Nineteen Valediaory SELF DISCIPLINE Discipline is defined in the dictionary as the training of the mind or character; therefore self discipline could be defined as one ' s own train- ing of his mind or character. In most cases all through our grade school career we were told just what to do by our teachers. When we were graduated into high school we were given more freedom by being given in general the privilege of choosing for ourselves what subjects to study. Now that we are almost through that stage, we wonder how it will be when we have to make our own decisions and act accordingly. During our high school career, many of us have had a chance to practice self discipline. During the basketball and baseball seasons the boys who participated were asked to train. This meant getting in at an early hour at least during the school week, and refraining from smoking and drinking. This training received, both in playing the game and ob- serving the training rules, will serve the players well in later years. The people who play musical instruments must practice for long hours to become accomplished musicians. This takes self discipline be- cause there are many temptations which would entice some students away from their practice. A fine example of the practice of self discipline in the field of science would be Madam Curie. She and her husband worked for years over tons and tons of pitchblende looking for a mineral, the principal properties of which they knew but they had not been able to extract this mineral. Finally, after countless failures, and with the use of the crudest equipmnt, the radium was extracted. New uses of radium are still being discovered. An example of how self discipline helped to overcome physical han- dicaps would be Glenn Cunningham. After being burned very badly in a school house fire, he was told by his doctor that he would never walk again. Vowing that he would, Glenn did all kinds of exercises until he not only walked but also became one of the best long distance runners in the world. The reason Glenn Cunningham, Madam Curie, and many others accomplished what they did is that self discipline had become second nature to them. This so called self discipline doesn ' t come to a person every time the occasion calls for it but it must be built up over the years. First one must learn to overcome the smaller problems or obstacles and gradually work up to larger ones. As far as we, the high school stu - dents are concerned, right now is when we should be developing our self discipline. Wherever a person goes, whatever he does after he gets out of high Pa e Twenty school and what he makes of himself will depend largely upon his self discipline. A person who gives up and tosses his work aside at every obstacle, large or small, wil not have the successful life a person has whose self discipline causes him to go ahead, no matter what the obstacle. If some one had developed some kind of telescope that could look ahead into our future lives and give us some warning as to what to pre- pare for, life would become a simple matter. But as it stands now, we can ' t foretell the future. When we meet life as it really is, with its com- petition, physical handicaps, successes, and failures, there is only one thing over which we have control. It might be called tact, wisdom, personality or character. But I choose to call it self discipline. ROBERT ELLIOTT Salutatory THE TEST OF ONE ' S EDUCATION Today, we, the Class of 1946, stand at the threshhold of a new day. Our knowledge has not been gained over night. We have spent twelve years preparing for this special day. We have been guided by parents, teachers, and friends. We have had the opportunity to learn many things necessary for a successful future, such as: friendliness, obedience, tolerance, co-operation, and sportsman- ship. The test of our education is not what we know, but how we apply this knowledge. If we have learned to make friends, by being friendly; to obey as well as to command; to praise as well as to be praised; to meet disappointment with fortitude; to take advantage of our opportunities, and always apply ourselves to the best of our ability, then these may be said to be a test of our education. An educated person has self-control and a true sense of the values of things. He never goes to extremes. He doesn ' t become discouraged because of doubts or opposition, yet he must be able to recognize both. He must not consider failure or success as final. Education leads to success. " If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue. Or walk with Kings — nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you. If all men count with you, but none too much; If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds ' worth of distance run. Yours is the Earth and everything that ' s in it. And — which is more — you ' ll be a Man, my son! " — Kipling PATRICIA RITTER Page Tu ' ciity-oiii First row: Dave Smith, Bob Bled- soe, Bev Randolph, Betty " V ' ' hitman, Bob Elliott.

Pa.: c Thirty-tivo Those Who Plan for Our Future »». Faculty Page Thirty-three Superintendent An army officer says: " Our kids, Americin boys, are just kind of automatically wonderful. Just through our own way of Ufe they get something that makes them su- perior fighters. They don ' t have to be indoctrinated and have it hammered in for months or years. The fighter pilot flies with his heart. The thing that makes him super- ior is something they get naturally, something they get just by growing up in this country. I think that the thing that makes them better fighters is an individual sense of responsibility to what they are doing and a capacity to think for themselves. " High school students who have developed " an indi- vidual sense of responsibility and a capacity to think for themseK ' es " may calmly face the weighty problems of peacetime life, for these are basic qualities that enable one to help solve those problems. — John L. Estrich. Principal As we take a post war look to the future from the dizzy spot on the earth we now occupy, the outlook will be optimistic if we stick to a few basic fundamentals that affect every life. What are some of these basic things? Let ' s name a few: An abiding faith in a Supreme Being. A respectful and tolerant attitude toward others regardless of race, creed, or color. As much training as possible in such elementary things as the English language and other basic subjects, and the development of healthy bodies and minds. Ability to make and keep friends. The desire to share with others. Self discipline. These things are Important in the long pull toward .1 satisfying life. — Clayton H. EUiiilt. Pa c Thirty-jour Board of Education Mr. Bratton is the president of the board. For the past five years he has been present at the monthly meet- ings. At these meetings the board members discuss general and financial arrangements for the school, the hiring of teachers and school personnel, and they decide upon school policies. CORNEAL BRATTON Mr. Essenberg is serving as secretary of the school board of Angola. He has been on the board for four years. When not in a busy board meeting he may be found man- agint; the local Thomas ' five and ten cent store. JEROLD P. ESSENBERG Mr. Chase takes care of the financial problems which deal with school life. For the past two years he has served as treasurer. He replaced Wendell Jarrard last year when he left for service in the Navy. ' VC ' e wish to thank these men for all their work and cooperation. We know it is a big job to establish our school principles and see that they are carried out. fe ' iiii JOHN L. ESTRICH Siipcr iitciiJciif Chemistry CLAYTON H.

" GIRL RESERVES The Girl Reserve Club was organized in 1927 under the direction of Miss Kathryn Dewees. Any girl in the sophomore, junior, or senior class is eligible for membership. An outdoor sing and three joint G.R.-Hy-Y meetings were held this year. At the meetings many interesting talks were given by outside speakers, among whom were Mr. Shank, Mrs. Whitman, Mr. Hall, Rev- erend Maynard, and Mr. Phillips. The annual Pa-Ma-Me Banquet was held March 12. The theme of the banquet, " An Old Fashioned Garden, " was carried out in dec- orations and program. The Girl Reserve meetings are always closed by the members ' singing " Lights Out " and repeating the purpose and slogan. The officers for the year were: President, Pat Ritter; vice-presi- dent, Betty Lou Whitman; secretary, Pat Johnson; treasurer, Pat Flet- ter; program chairman, Mary Jean Kohl; social chairman, Loene Kiser; service chairman, Jackie Shank; finance chairman, Beverly Randolph; pianist, Charlotte Strait; song leader, Ramona Zeis.

HI-Y In 1922 Mr. Estrich organized the Angola Chapter of the Hi-Y Club, the first to be organized in the State of Indiana. The three sides of the Hi-Y triangle represent the physical, mental and spiritual sides of a boy ' s life, and club activities are arranged to develop all three. At the meetings, held every other week, were heard a number of speakers who gave interesting talks. At two of the meetmgs some of the boys gave short talks followed by a general discussion by all mem- bers. The Hi-Y basketball team played two basketball games with the F.F.A. during the year. This carried out the purpose suggested in the " physical " side of the Hi-Y triangle. Some of the activities of the year were the Father and Son banquet and the G.R.-Hi-Y party. The Father and Son banquet was held at the Christian Church on the evening of November 12. The speaker was Rev. Maynard of the Christian Church. At the beginning of each meeting a chapter from the Bible was read. This was followed by all members standing, repeating the " Lord ' s Prayer. " The meetings were ended with the reading of the " Whang- doodle, " the club scandal sheet. The otficers for the club this year were: President, Bob Purdy; vice president, Dave Smith; secretary, Forrest Johnson; sergeant-at-arms. Bob Bledsoe. TIME: 7:00 Monda) evenings.

Page Forty-three Key Staff of ' 46 It is customary for the senior class to undertake the work of publishing a worthwhile annual. This year not only those on the staff, but everyone has done his bit in helping to make this book a success. Editor-in-chief, Pattie Fletter, and assistant editor, Betty Lou Whitman, have expended much time and energy in the making. Business manager, Bob Bledsoe, and assis- tants, Don Nichols, Dave Smith, and Warren Johns, have really worn out some shoe leather obtaining ads and taking care of other business matters. Carol Sims and EUora Dole of the circulation department have really circulated. Much credit goes to Pat Johnson, art editor, and assistants Barbara Hubbard and Frank Jones, whose brilliant and original ideas appear herewith. Feature writers, Jackie Shank and Metta Jean Parr, have really scraped up some nice features (if you know what I mean.) Snapshot editor, Mar) Jean Kohl and her assistants Loene Kiser, Joan Hobbs, and Bev- erly Randolph, got some pictures some people wish they hadn ' t, but then they have done a swell job. Without the help of Ramona Zeis, Bonnie Powers and Bobbie Hubbard, who arranged the classes and told a little bit about each one of us, this book might not have been so interesting. Bob Elliott and Dick Mondhank have given us the year ' s activities in athletics. Pat Ritter and Yvonne Humphries have taken good care of the music department. This year ' s calendar was reconstructed by Roma Lee Pen- ick and Midge Jones. Information concerning those who have gone before us was gathered by Dick Mann and Keith Folck for the pages of the alumni in the back of this book. Although this book is of a serious nature we have let down and allowed those two funny men, Dave Smith and Warren Johns, to supply this book with jokes. When a person leaves a world, he usually leaves a will. Well, Angola High School has been the world of this class for the past four years and now we are leaving it. Bob Purdy and Bill Carr have prepared our last will and testa- ment. All classes have a history and we ' ve really left one. It has been collected by Carol Sims and Eleanor Kabel. Charlotte Strait and Pattie Fletter have prophesied what great and wonderful things this class of ' 46 will do in the future. Say haven ' t we forgotten someone? Why, yes, we mustn ' t forget our names — Nancy Webb and Dee Purdy — organizations. Miss Shultz has been the faculty adviser. Pai c I- ' or y-foiir " Copy ' s Due Today " The Hornet is the mimeogr.iphed school pnper published by the journalism class. The first edition of our school paper was published in 1918. The first name given this paper was The Key. It was later called The Spectator, but in 193 S it was called The Hornet, and the name has remained the same since. One of the most outstanding issues of The Hornet this year was the tournament edition containing pictures of the first team and the reserves, and also many tourna- ment features. The course in journalism is taught to give students experience in interviewing people and in writing articles for publication. In addition to publishing The Hornet, the jour- nalism students write articles concerning school activities for the Steuben Republican and Angola Herald.

The greatest distinction given to seniors of Angola High School is membership in the National Honor Society. Fifteen per cent of the class are eligible. They are chosen from the upper third of the class ranked according to scholastic records and are selected on the basis of scholar- ship, service, citizenship, and character. Those given the honor this year were: Bob Bledsoe, Bob Elliott, Don Nichols, Pat Ritter, and Charlotte Strait. Every year each member of the National Honor Society contributes one dollar to the scholarship fund. The fund is maintained to lend to members of the society or to graduating members of the high school who need the money for college. The local chapter of the National Honor Society was started in Angola High School in 193 5 and the total membership is now 181. Election of officers was held at the first meeting of the active Honor Society. Char- lotte Strait was chosen president; Pat Ritter, vice president; Bob Bledsoe, secretary; and Mr. Elliott, treasurer. AMERICAN LEGION AWARDS For the past fourteen years the American Legion citi- zenship award has been presented to one boy and one girl of the senior class. The Angola Post No. 31 makes this award. The students are selected by faculty votes. The criteria for judging the winners are honor, courage, leadership, and service to the school. The winners in the Class of ' 46 were David Smith and Mar) ' Jean Kohl. Page Forty-six Guide to the Future The Student Council wjs founded in order to create a greater amount of cooper- ation between the students and the faculty and to provide opportunities for stuclents to become better citizens. Under the guidance of Mrs. Arnold and Mr. Brown the council finished a successful year. A few of the activities of the council were setting dates for school parties, selling basketball schedule pencils and Hornet buttons, the election of cheer leaders, and secur- ing chapel programs for the second semester. They also had charge of the May Dance. The officers for the year were: President, Bob Pur dy; vice president. Bob Elliott; secretary, Forrest Johnson; reporter, Charlotte Strait.

It was organized in Angola in 1931 under the supervision of Mr. Elliott. Every boy who takes vocational agriculture is eligible to join the F.F.A. The meetings are held the first Tuesday of every month. The Angola chapter held its annual father and son banquet at the College Inn on December 4. County agent Emerson Myers was the guest speaker. In November the Angola chapter officers attended the officers " training meeting at Garrett. Our chapter sent two delegates to the annual state convention at Purdue University in April. A program of work was set up for the year in which scholarship was stressed. The annual Hi-Y, F.F.A. basketball games were also planned. The F.F.A. alumni game was won by the alumni. The Angola F.F.A. basketball team defeated the Coldwater F.F.A. members on March 13. In December the Angola chapter sold Christmas trees. The county commissioners furnished the trees from the extra growth at the county park. The Angola chapter received half the proceeds from the sales. Fifty members and former members of the F.F.A. served in the armed forces, one of whom, Dan Barnes, paid the supreme sacrifice. The chapter also supervises the purchase and sale of ice cream bars, cooperating with the Girl Reserves in the project. The officers for 1946 were: President, Bill Crain; vice president, Bill Carr; secretary, Dick Shank; treasurer. Chuck Sheets; and reporter, John Elliott. Mr. Elliott is the sponsor.

Its membership is open to anyone m high school who has previously studied speech. The club has a membership of fifty-three. The first meeting of all active and inactive members was an initiation dinner at the Gay , arn on November 7. After the initiation ceremony, informal stunts provided the ente-- .inment. The club ' s colors are black and white; the motto, " AH the W ' orld ' s a Stage, " and the flower, the white rose. The club sponsored " The Scrapbook of ' 46, " an all-school varietv show. Th.-y also presented three one act plays on March 22. The plays were " Nobody Home, " " Buddy Answers An Ad, " and " I ' ll Be Waiting. " The first semester officers were: President, Nancy Webb; vice president, John Elliott; secretary, Joan Kundard; treasurer, Jeanne Anne Webb. Second semester: ' Presi- dent, John Elliott; vice president, Nancy Webb; secretary, Ileen Nelson; treasurer, Jeanne Anne Webb. Mrs. Hunter is the club sponsor. Page Forty-nine Kind Lady " Kind Lady, " the senior class play of ' 46 was presented on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, April 2} and 24, in the high school auditorium. " Kind Lady " was written by Edward Chodrov and is a story of character study and mystery. The action takes place in the fashionable London home of Miss Mary Herries. There is a prologue by means of which the story is introduced. Mary Herries, who at the moment is able to free herself from the power of those dominating her life, starts to tell the story of her virtual imprisonment to a banker, Mr. Foster. Then Mary Herries ' story unfolds on the stage. Mr. Henry Abbott, a gentleman of the world and a scoundrel representing himself as a beggar, comes in from the street with Miss Herries on Christmas Eve. He worms his way into the household and with the aid of several friends gains much power and forces Miss Herries into a state bordering insanity. Her hope gives her strength. This hope nearly vanishes, however, when she tries to explain her predicament to an art collector, Mr. Rosenberg. She knows Mr. Abbott and his friends, the Edwards, are listening. She manages to give Mr. Rosenberg a note, which he gives to Mr. Abbott on his way out. Then Miss Herries does wonder whether she will ever be able to free herself. Her best friend, Mrs. Weston, is killed m an airplane accident. Her aid only could free Mary Herries. This takes us to the epilogue, where again we find Miss Herries telling her story to Mr. Foster. Miss Herries hands him a note just before Mr. Abbott comes in. There is suspense when Mr. Abbott asks Mr. Foster whether she has given him something. Mr. Foster keeps the secret and note and the final curtain comes as the police are knocking at the door. The members of the cast were: Mary Herries, Pattie Fletter; Henry Abbott, David Smith; Lucy Weston, Pat Johnson; Phyllis Glenning, Jackie Shank; Rose, the maid, Ramona Zeis; Mr. Foster, Warren Johns; the Doctor, Robert Bledsoe; Mr. Edwards, Don Nichols; Mrs. Edwards, Pat Ritter; Peter Sant- ard, Robert Elliott; Aggie Edwards, Loene Kiser; Gustav Rosenberg, Robert Purdy; Ada, Charlotte Strait; the Butler, Keith Folck. Much credit for the success of the play went to the stage crew, the boys of the senior class, who worked faithfully to construct the scenery. The work of the students on other committees also contrib- uted greatly to the final success. The complete production was under the skillful direction of Charles Edwin Shank. Pa ' C •; Daphne " Daphne, " a three-act mystery-comedy drama, was given by the junior class on December 5 and 6, before enthusiastic audiences. The action of the play started when Faith Talbott inherited Rockhaven, an old mansion on the Atlantic coast. She was joined by her friends there and many thrilling and humorous complications de- veloped. The cast included: Mammy Prue, housekeeper, Bonnie Kessler; Rodman Brent, attorney. Dale Mc- Clellan; Faith Talbott, heiress. Donna Stevens; Jean Baudette, friend. Patsy Cremean; Lance Talbott, cousin, Andrew Emerson; Fletcher Gearhart, Bob Williamson; Marshall W ' estbrook, Don Sell; Mrs. Alice Tracy, Faith ' s aunt, Patty Harman; Laurel Croydon, an unbidden guest and Daphne, the spirit of the house, Peggy Fletter.

OUR COACH " Druck " has h.id one of his best years of coaching this year both in baseball and basketball. He was regarded highly by the fans and the other teams for his coaching ability. The most important thing was the high re- gard his boys had for him. This was very apparent on the baseball diamond and basketball floor. This is Druck ' s third year of coaching since coaching the Tri-State College team for several years. VARSITY PLAYERS BOB BLEDSOE — Center. " Louie " set a new scoring record this year of 278 points. The old record formerly held by Bob Brokaw was 259 points in 1929. Louie ' s fine rebounding and clever left-handed shot will be greatly missed next year. Bob ' s ability to shoot with either hand and hi: knack made him greatly feared by all opponents. Senior. DON NICHOLS — Foriiunl. " Doc " could always be counted upon when the going was tough. He was an excellent feeder and rebounder. He had a good one-handed shot from the corner and a good tip-in. He will be missed a lot next year. Senior. BOB ELLIOTT — Guard. " B. G. " was the mainstay in the guard line this year. He could always hit in a tough game and his accurate " one banders " helped the team to many wins. Bob had lots of fight and a good long shot. The team will miss him next year. Senior. tip-in ' Phil " broke into the starting line-up in the third game and kept going ever since. Phil had plenty of determination and was fast. He was very valuable under the basket and had a good " set " shot from the corner. He should prove valuable next year. Sophomore. ED JACKSON — Guard. " Eddie " was one of the smallest men on the team but made up for it with plenty of fight and speed. He had a good long shot and was very aggressive. He often scored on a fast break. Much will be expected of Ed next year. Junior. l ' a:ic i-ijly -d- hl IXDIVIDTAL SCORING FG FTM FTA Av. Bledsoe ..117 44 74 .549 Nichols 70 34 5.

" Mousie " was another valuable substitute and always gave a good account of himself when used. Mousie had a good long shot from way out, and also possessed a good one- handed shot. He was valuable under the backboards because he was big. " Mousie " will be hard to replace next year. Senior KEITH FOLCK — Center. " Slats " experienced a lot of action this year when " Louie " was having trouble. Keith scored many points on his clever pivot shot and he could well be counted upon when sent in. This is " Slats " last year. Senior. DEAN SUTTON — Foniard. " Deanie " saw little action this year but will probably see much more next year. He would substitute for " Doc " when the going was tough. He has a good shot which, along with his height, is a great asset. Dean will be counted upon next year. Sophomore. MAC ARNOLD — Guard. " Mac " was another capable substitute sent in when things were going the wrong way for Phil. Mac had a good shot and scored quite a few points. With this year ' s experience, he should be valuable next year. Junior. LEE SUTTON — Guard. " Levie " was the substitute sent in for " B. G. " He saw considerable action this year. Lee had one of the best long shots on the team and proved this on the basketball court. He should prove a real threat to our opponents next year. Junior. Along with the team always went student athletic manager, Tom Jack, a sophomore, and sports reporter. Red Loomis, a junior. Both deserve much credit for their faithful work during the season.

Angola then lost its only game of the regular season to Kendallville by four points. The Hornets then whipped Waterloo, Wolcottville, Auburn, LaGrange, Garrett, Butler, Fremont, and Ashley in succession. The Hornets easily won the County Tourney then by downing Pleasant Lake, Salem Center, and Orland. With this 1 1 game winning streak started, the Hornets kept right on going and defeated Garrett, Fremont, La- Grange, Salem Center, Orland, Avilla, and then routed a highly rated Coldwater, Michigan, team. They closed a very successful season with a decisive win over Butler. This year ' s second team was one of the best Angola has ever had. They won 17 and lost 1 for a record very few second teams ever achieve. The Angola Hornets won the undisputed title to the Corner Conference Championship this year for the first time in the history of the school by defeating Rome City, Waterloo, Wolcottville, Butler, Ashley, and Avilla. Angola entered sectional tournament competition heavily favored to win. They defeated Scott Center in their first game 5 3-19 and in their second game they defeated Spencerville 61-21. They then lost in the semi-final round to Ashley by a score of 39-3 8. Ashley then went on to down favored Auburn 44-41. Pa};e Sixty Reserves SEASON ' S SCHEDULE CHEER LEADERS Most schools have cheer leaders, but few schools had as good cheer leaders as ours. They could really make the " kids " yell. Angola ' s cheer- ing section has become noted in this section of the state because of its spirit and its good sense. The cheer leaders who did such a grand job this year are Leonard Ott, Carolyn Bender, and Chuck Sheets. Since they are ail juniors we can look forward to a good cheering section next year.
