ZJ c W a -J . . . come to learn, make new friends, and have fun. Students, teachers, and parents meet at Indianapolis ' far north-side high school for a pro- gram chock-full of activities. Since 1886 when Broad Ripple began with seven pupils and a soli- tary teacher-principal, the enroll- ment has increased to 1,550 and 82 faculty members. A record-setting Freshman Class contributed 472 greenies from both city and town- ship grade schools. The little Ripplites scrambling through the book were drawn by Senior Tom Johnson, an award win- ning cartoonist. The student life photographs were taken by Senior Cameraman Ed Elrod and his as- sistants. The history of the school year was written and organized by the yearbook editors pictured on Page 112. In this familiar scene Ripplites are hurrying home at 3:15. Some use buses, jalopies, streetcars, and motor scooters for the get-away while others plod along pedibus. BR No, they ' re not making H bombs! These Ripple chemists are distilling water. The newly-equipped lab permitted more junior scientists to take Chemistry. practice: the 3 R s People at Ripple enjoy learning. New subjects and more modern classroom facilities, including a newly-equipped chemistry lab, add much to the school program. One new course, Library Science, not only gives those students inter- ested a chance to work in the library, but also teaches them the fundamentals of managing a library. A second new course, Diversified Occupations, brings the problems of the business world into the class- room. By holding part-time jobs, the members of the class learn by doing. The advanced social studies and advanced business education classes each year visit industrial plants and civic centers to learn more about business and government. These special courses and events add spice to the regular routine of the 3 R ' s and prove that Ripple ' s curriculum is ever increasing with the school.

People at Ripple were really proud when Ripple ' s ROTC battalion won for the first time the first place pen- nant at the Armistice Day parade. Added to this was the honor of win- ning top rating in the 1950 Federal Inspection. This year boys of the Freshman Class were permitted to enroll thus bringing the membership to a grand total of 206 cadets — the largest in Ripple ' s history. Janet Sage, Donna Knox, Ann Chase, and Judy Risk added the year ' s feminine note to the unit when they were elected sponsors. Officers and cadets danced with their dates at the second Military Ball held at Ripple, May 12. Start- ing with the Star Spangled Ban- ner and ending with Taps it suc- cessfully ended the ROTC cadets ' year. Every Ripple girl envies the sponsors with all those ROTC men around, the top brass! ... A grand ending for the year was the Military Ball. . Here ' s There ' s something about a soldier, particularly when he ' s a Ripple ROTC cadet, that makes it evident why he and his unit won first place in the Armistice Day parade. School Closed. Homework Abolished. These mythical headlines adorned the gym as Ripplites danced at the Riparian Headline Hop opening the ' 50- ' 51 Ripple social season. 10 HAVE FUN People at Ripple had fun all year. It started at the beginning of school in September, when friends met at lockers and in the cafeteria to com- pare programs and gossip about summer fun. New romances became current history when guys ran to beat the clock after walking their girls to classes. Something new was added to the fun schedule this year. Band Day was inaugurated to finance new hats and uniforms for the band. The Headline Hop lent fuel to the who ' s with whom fire for days. The Hoosier hysteria, basketball, was made even more lively by the expert yelling of the Booster Club. Studies took second importance to pin curls and pleas for the family car as the after game dances and the Starlight Ball passed in a social whirl. Whether they were cheering, dancing, or following the Band, Rip- plites had a wonderful time. King and Queen for a night! Donna Knox and Gordon Smith reigned as Miss and Mr. Riparian. . . . Sectionals or bust! Ripplites are off to cheer the Rockets — win or lose. 11 1$ PUAY TALEN T 5 People at Ripple opened the stage season this year on November 2 and 4 with the Music Department ' s pre- sentation of Gilbert and Sullivan ' s H.M. S. Pinafore. The school ' s Christmas program featured the play, A Star in the Window, given by the Oral Expression class. Weeks of rehearsal, long hours of costume fitting, night practices, and the final dress rehearsal were pre- ludes to the big nights for Ripple vaudevillers — The Ripples — present- ed on March 30 and 31. The acts, student written and directed, were: All Year Round, Barnyard Jam- boree, Green Cheese, and The Park Bench Story. The Senior class members put their best acting forward as they presented the rollicking comedy, Best Foot Forward, to end the theatrical season on May 18. Ye jolly tars of the H.M.S. Pinafore (1950 ' s operetta) give forth with a salty song. The play, A Star in the Window, highlighted the annual Christmas program. 12 .

More proof came when they selected their class officers and appointments were made for Senior committees. Awed glances from underclass- men and preparation for the Senior English Tests further impressed upon them their coveted position that had been just a dream four years ago. Plans for the future and hours of study for final exams added an air of finality. From the mad whirl of senior social activities and studies the spot- light fell in turn on Color Day, the Reception, Senior Play, Class Day, Baccalaureate, and finally the long awaited night — Commencement. These four years have passed all too quickly but Ripple ' s seniors will forever treasure their memories of Broad Ripple. Commencement, never to be forgotten by the seniors, has been held on the athletic field since 1948. ... A memorable date for juniors and seniors is the Reception. 15 People at Ripple include many others besides students. The PTA, Alumni, Dads ' Association, and oth- ers always back the high school in its activities. On November 8, Ripple ' s halls bulged with 2,387 people as parents, teachers, and students took the opportunity to become better ac- quainted at the annual Open House. At the Homecoming Game Rip- plites thanked the Alumni Associa- tion for the new football scoreboard. Parents, through the PTA, spon- sored the fall carnival which was a big event of the year for Ripple clubs. The between-semester vaca- tion was livened by the PTA Ice- skating Party. As spring rolled around thoughts turned from books and tests to other things. The Dads gave the Joe-Jane Dance, and the year was brought to a close by the PTA ' s graduation present to the seniors — the grad dance. When at a Roman banquet, do as the Romans do! . . . Parents pushed brooms and sold cokes at the Headline Hop. . . . Good skates help at the Skating Party! 16 Seems simple enough; Both young and old at the annual Open House were at- tracted to many exhibits such as this pulley demonstration in the physics laboratory. 17 ? t , n 2 • N - PEOPLE IN SPORTS u X5 ' ; fc. u W i II ' fc (,-f ' X 7 Jl — tit w $ C . . . this year paid tribute to one of Broad Ripple ' s finest sportsmen, the c late coach and athletic directer, Ed , f Diederich. On November 10, the high yr o school athletic field was dedicated as the Edgar F. Diederich Memorial Field. An electric scoreboard — a project of the Lettermen Alumni — a new paint job for the bleachers, a re- freshment stand, and more lights were added to the newly dedicated field.

Off-and-On Gridmen Compile 4-6 Record Despite the won 4, lost 6 season record, the 1950 Ripple football team looked good, showed fine team spirit, and dis- played good sportsmanship. The Rocket grid men suffered a de- feat in their initial game of the season from South Bend Adams, a newcomer to the Ripple schedule. However, the boys came back the next week, socking Brazil, 32-7. The third game of the sea- son was a thriller, but the Rockets couldn ' t stop the inspired Evansville Central Bears who won, 19-12. The team beginning an off-again, on-again season won their last out-of-city en- counter by a 7-0 decision over the Red Devils of Richmond. Ripple lost its city opener to Howe; then the next week thumped Washing- ton, 24-0. Tech ' s Greenclads, eventual city co-champions, with Cathedral, downed the Orange and Black, 21-0. The follow- ing Friday Ripple was on and whipped Manual, 19-7. Playing the last two games in cold, wet weather, the gridders lost to Cathe- dral, 28-0 and Shortridge, 6-0.

The final season record of the basket- ball team was 11 victories against 9 de- feats coming from a regular season of 10 and 8 and a Sectional reading of 1 and 1. The Rocket brigade started the season with an impressive win over Lawrence Central, 57 to 39, then fell before a pre- cision Sacred Heart unit, 54 to 42. De- catur and Cathedral fell before the Ripple five, 46-34 and 54-48, respectively. Howe and Crispus Attucks then took high scoring encounters, 53-67 and 50-76. Four more teams, including north side rival Shortridge, fell before the Bairdmen tasted defeat at the hands of Howe ' s Hornets, 41-47. The Orange and Black defeated Greenfield, 67-46, in the last home stand of the season. The Rockets took it on the chin in four of the last six encounters, all away from home. The Sectional then brought its sweet revenge in the defeat of the Green Wave before the Rockets were subdued by a rejuvenated Irish squad.

The long-winded runners were led by Sophomore Charlie Yott and Junior Bob Kirk, who placed in the first fifteen in the Sectional Meet. This was the first season that Mr. Lee had a freshman squad, and he hopes to be able to continue Cross Country as a regular freshman sport.

Racquet Wielders Broad Ripple ' s 1950 Tennis team, led by Junior Bob Martin, compiled a sea- sonal record of two wins against five losses. Both Rocket victories came over Park School. The losses were to Short- ridge, Crawfordsville, Anderson, Tech, and Muncie Central. Martin, top Ripple racquetman, was runner-up in the first state high school tennis tourney at Ev- ansville. 1950 Tennis Team George Wildman Dan Rowles Bob Skinner Bob Martin Charles Aldag 28 Divot Diggers Paced by promising underclassmen, John Williams ' golf squad opposed ten schools in their 1950 season and man- aged to win more than they lost. Although failing to qualify for the state finals for the first time in their five-year ' s competition, the Rocket divot- diggers did remarkably well in their tough sectional. The linksmen captured sixth out of this fifteen-squad meet, and placed fourth in the city tournament held at Sarah Shank Golf Course. Grunt ' n Groan Artists Ripple ' s matmen chalked up two wins and eight losses in the 1950-51 season. The Rocket wrestlers downed Richmond, 34-4, and Ben Davis, 45-2, in their third season as a major sport. Capably coached by Milton Hiatt the grapplers took fourth place in the Sectional meet, but failed to send an entrant to the state contest. Those receiving varsity letters were Spencer Brock, Eddie French, Dave Han- na, John Moenning, Fritz Shumacher, Russell Wurster, and Jerry Young.

The cindermen walked off with a total of seven trophies last spring. Ripple, making its debut in indoor track, on March 15 at Indiana University, lost its opener to Howe but perked up a week later finishing fifth in the Hoosier Relays, second only in size to the State meet. Tom Graves established a school 60 yard record in the Howe meet with a :06.4 clocking. During the remainder of the season two more records were set, one each by Bill Tubbs and John Rouse. Tubbs was clocked in 23.6 in the low hur- dles. Rouse pole vaulted to a height of 11 ft. in the last meet of the season. Tubbs, the only Ripple entry in the State meet, took sixth in the high hurdles. Harold Besse, Jerry Garrett, John Higley, Dee.

Ripple Nine Extends Win Streak to 24 Attempting to extend their 21 game winning streak and keep the city crown, members of the 1950 baseball squad, paced by seven returning lettermen, opened their early season victoriously. Lawrence, Ben Davis, and Attucks were downed by the Rockets before Shortridge snapped their 24 game win record, 8-7. The Bairdmen split their next four games, doubling Franklin, 8-4, then losing to Tech, 4-1, in a barrage of un- productive singles. A 2-1 win over South- port was followed by a defeat from Zionsville, 14-6. Howe ' s Hornets fell be- fore the Rockets, 10-1, in the last game before the city tourney. Eddie French Jay Hanselmann Warren Sparks Ripple won its tourney opener, 2-1, from the Redskins of Manual. Champion- ship hopes were soon ruined, however, by Cathedral, 3-2, in the city play; and Washington took consolation hopes by a 6-2 tally. Brownsburg and Washington were de- feated, 7-1, and, 9-1, before the Rockets completed their 11 win, 5 lost season with an appropriate, 10-3, trouncing the north-side rival, Shortridge. 1950 Baseball Scores Broad Ripple 3 Lawrence 2 11 Ben Davis 6 14 Attucks 4 7 Shortridge 8 8 Franklin 4 1 Tech 4 2 Southport 1 6 Zionsville 14 10 Howe 1 7 Brownsburg 1 9 Washington 1 10 Shortridge 3 City Tourney 2 Manual 1 2 Cathedral 3 2 Washington 6 33 Upper picture: Susie Lehman, Mary Ellen Hood, Sally Wiese, Mary Ann Dickerson and Rhoda Kittel- sen aim for the bull ' s-eye during an archery club meeting.

Publications Staffs Win Top Awards Ripple ' s largest journalism staffs to- taling over 100 students cooperated to publish the Riparian Weekly newspaper and the Riparian Yearbook, and to pub- licize the school through the School News Bureau. The Riparian Weekly proved its com- ing-of-age by receiving the coveted Na- tional Scholastic Press Association Ail- American rating, the Quill and Scroll International Honor Rating, and for the second consecutive year the George H. Gallup award for distinguished achieve- ments in journalism. Twenty-two Ripplites won a total of 25 awards last July at the Indiana Uni- versity Journalism Institute. Dick Moll gave Ripple the honor of its second presidency of the Indiana High School Press Association. Tom Willey was awarded a trophy for the best sports story written at the Wabash Valley Press Conference, and the weekly newspaper won the award for the best newspaper. For the second consecutive year the Riparian Yearbook also received the Ail- American award.

(Standing) Because publications must be self- supporting, the business management of the Riparian newspaper and yearbook is ever important. The circulation staff, aided by the journalism class, conducted the subscription campaign getting near- ly 1400 subscriptions. The advertising staff sold many inches of space to help balance the budget. Discussing page layouts (below left) are page edi- tors (Seated) Barbara Farmer.

PTA Goes To Dogs Autographing black and orange dogs was a prominent feature at the Carnival this year.

The corner of Compton Street and Broad Ripple Avenue has seen more Rip- plites this year than ever before. They dash through the doors each morning without band or fanfare, rummage through their lockers, and rush to their first assignments. Standing in any hall, a spectator views a lively parade of people — the studious, the social-minded, the docile, and the mischievous. Faces old and faces young, foot- steps light and footsteps heavy — all form a part of the passing parade which may be seen on the following pages. S! Faculty  12j 2 £i Mr. J. Fred Murphy, principal.
