From the minute we come to school hy bus, bike, car, foot or thumb, things start buzzing. First we meet the gang around that certain locker and catch up on all the latest guz. Or we meet that certain person, whom we haven't seen since eleven oiclock last night. Or we rush into the powder room to take out the bobby pins and apply lipstick. All is noise, confusion, excitement. All day this feeling of excitement continues. We all have that feeling of being in the midst of a place where things are happening. Maybe it's college applications, maybe it's a pep session or a play or concert. Maybe it's a chem test coming up or a homeroom program. Maybe itis an assembly or it,s Black Tuesday-tgrade card dayl. We pass a friendly teacher, like Mr. Winne. We see Woody swinging past with his swift and energetic stride. We bump into a couple of strolling lovers, we dash into the oHice to ask a favor of Betty or Mary Loug we run shivering to the Methodist Church classroomsg we gather with the regular gang for lunch. Bells sound, machines hum, typewriters click, voices rise and fall, a good smell is waited out of the kitchensg a had one, from the chem lah.

After each Student Council meeting, the homeroom representative makes his report and asks for discussion on decisions that affect us all. Each Friday we buy and read the school paper, the Pennant Xveekly. Information on vocations, on courses, on colleges, scholar- ships, career day. assemblies and school regulations . . . all the things the administration thinks we need to know are given in our homerooms. Programs are planned hy Miss Dorsett, chairman of the Guidance Council, Miss Kelly, chairman, and the Homeroom Committee: Miss Amsbaugh, Miss Deal, Miss Sawyer, Mr. Mater, Mr. Hart and Mrs. Hines. Homeroom presidents meet regularly for briefing and discussions of the planned procedure. The guidance program is partly carried out in the home- room, loo, through counsellors, homeroom teachers, staff members, and people from the community. The sophomores have talks on courses and school orientation, the juniors learn about vocations, and the seniors look ahead to college or a joh, and to making a success of their adult life. In addition, many homerooms plan many other programs of their own. and hate enjoyable and informal sessions. Home- rooms are the channels through which our tides of school life flow. f fl -"--:uw x , Y 0"Q3-':?"i?9"mtg:g:1-' X N .J -x 5 2 , K" Xb! aw' ,,.. , I "gy Tl ?Tf,..,,, it is ' E X ,- zz.. .

ORGAIY, NOCATIONAL DIRECTOR, GETS ACQIIAIYTED XVITH the two new teachers in his office over in the annex. The two newcomers are Mr. John Morgan. who teaches Auto Mechanics, and Mr. Ion Abel, who teaches Electricity. Mr. Organ explains the con- nection between his department and the industries of our city, telling them a little about the ex ening and apprentice classes. By now, Mr. Morgan and Mr. Abel are very much at home in good old E.H.S. with the students, as well as the faculty. illr. Abel, wlflr. Organ and Mr. Jllorgalz YOCATIOIXAL DRAWING is a course for seniors expecting to enter industry. The first few weeks of the year, they learn to letter and then to draw plans for machine parts, and the tools used in the Machine Shop. They assist the annual staff by making the junior and senior panels. The pupils spend three hours in class daily Mr. Hamilton guides the boys in drawing house plans and teaches them to read blue prints accurately. After each student has learned the basic principles of his work he is required to design some small machine. The boys must strive to do good work all through the vear, because a good recommendation is very helpful to a young job seeker. Wakzng blue Pl mls DRAWING I0 is the first course 'iven in the lliffll school beyond General Shop Drawing. The languaffe used in this course, called the graphic language, is the language of industry. In order to use this language, the student must he able to visualize an object and make necessary views of it. Mr. Anderson instructs the boys in the use of the drawing board, tee square, compass, and triangle. First in the course of Mechanical Drawing free-hand sketching is stressed. Then comes the view drawing and the pietoral drawing, which completes the year's course. The hasic understanding will make it easier for hiln to read drawings in any of the shops in which he may work. Drafting means accuracy .f-5--.annq-...aw-gil Tomorrowfs homemalrers must learn todayis skills. HY HOMEMAKINC CLASSES, COOKING takes up one semester. The purpose of this course is to help the pupil develop ability to meet some family food problems and get more experience in working with foods. In the tenth grade homemaking classes, which are repre- sented in this picture, the preparation of food is a high- light for the girls through one semester. Uppermost in their minds is "What shall we cook?" and "When do we eatiw. The girls develop some ability in meeting family food prob- lems and some skill in handling foods as well as manage- rfi:e"nt of time in the preparation of meals. One special project for each girl is planning, with a limited amount to spend, the preparation and the serving of a luncheon to teachers or other groups from the com- munity. The care and use of laboratory equipment make up an important part of the learning experiences of the girls. The students are taught the following ideas: interest in planning and serving suitable meals, ability to prepare and serve meals to groups at school, understanding the dietary needs, of the sick, methods of canning foods, making jams and iellies and preparing attractive refreshments for parties. Activities in unit kitchens result in an understanding of the importance of working together cooperatively. The unit kitchens, with equipment for four girls, provide a home- like situation for meal preparation and serving. In the menu planning, the girls become interested in the calorie content of foods. They learn to recognize the foods that are high in calories which they can avoid choosing in quantity. They can select diets suitable to their age and height and learn the importance of diet in improving one's personal appearance. A wise gal learns "A stitch in time" . . . THE PURPOSE OF THE CLOTHING COURSE is to help girls develop ability to meet problems concerning the buying, making and repairing of garments. The pupil is taught to recognize different kinds of clothing problems, ability to use sewing guides and equipment efficiently, skill in sewing techniques, knowledge of how fiber and fabrics differ, ability to evaluate hand made and ready made clothes. In the twelfth grade, the subject changes slightly. This course is open to all pupils who want help in building a satisfying personal life and in preparing for a successful marriage. Style shows are featured, usually twice a semester, to show the finished garments to classmates, mothers, and other invited guests. In the spring, all the clothing classes work together to present a homemaking department style show in the auditorium. Exhibits and demonstrations are shown in the homemaking rooms. Some of the various things they learn are: how to get along with people, understanding the conditions of a happy marriage, knowledge of guides for conserving time, energy and money, judgment in making choices, interest in child development, knowledge of how to provide for physical growth and ability to share in care and guidance of children. Student teachers come to E.H.S. from Purdue University. Each of the teachers spends four weeks doing student teach- ing in the homemaking department. These students have added interest and variety to the clothing classes. The girls learn to test materials, to budget for their wardrobes and to suit their choices of clothes to their size, personality and preference. Films, commercial displays and attractive bulletin boards help make the course more inter- esting. Where seeing is truly believing. UP IN THE LABS, the kids are studying living things. Now, as sophomores, they are convinced that no one can escape biology. Since everyone is interested in himself and things that aifect him, biology should be a study of much concern to all. The importance of living things is realized when the student recognizes his dependence upon other living plants and animals. Studies of various plant and animal groups and how they function are the chief studies of the students. Bottles of live bugs, notebooks of leaves and their identifications, spring flowers pressed between heavy dictionaries-these are the familiar things that we grow used to seeing every day. Field trips are taken to get out and really see nature at work. Other field trips, sponsored by the science club, give students ideas about related sciences. The students learn to identify birds on sight, their songs and living habitats and ranges of Hight. The all-important study of landscaping and gardening is thoroughly gone over in an effort to inform the students as to the beauty that their future homes may have. Students collect and grow bacteria, see a tiny universe in a small bit of pond water, watch bees at work in a hive, plant and grow various seeds, learn to distinguish between poisonous and nonpoisonous snakesg these are just a few of the many things the kids do. Miss Wlaggoner and Mr. Adams teach students to use the microscope accurately and make this subject as interesting as possible. HLearn by doing" is the motto of this course. Films, displays and everything needed in the way of equip- ment aid students in the Hdoingv. As the Romans built them . . LATIN CLASSES, guided by the capable hands of Miss Sawyer, probed into the many Roman contributions to civilization and the methods used to do these marvelous things. Various legends of the ancient Romans are translated by many of the students. The second year of Latin, IOA, develops an interest in some foreign language and creates a desire for continued study. If the student wishes to continue in his study of Latin, as a useful way to improve his knowledge in English. he may do so. Third year Latin strives to create smoother translation and deeper under- standing of this ancient language. This class also supervises the plans and arranges for the Roman Banquet which was held on April 13, this year. They also observe various Roman holidays, like the ldes of March, and the Saturnalia. Latin IZA makes the student familiar with stories of love, adventure and character sketches of many famous Roman men and women. Many of the original writings of Homer and Dante are used here. As the Romans do ,fiffzf .X-. -93 X I 5? 5. uf f, 1,-4' ,,,.f .,- ww X ff Headline hunters: Irene and Gunther. IRENE AND GUNTHER LEARN about our country by studying newspapers from all parts of the United States. This course, called American Problems, is the study of our economic and social problems. With the help of textbooks, papers, and Hlms, these two foreign students soon became acquainted with the ways and means of our government. Every student is required to sub- scribe to the American Observer, a miniature weekly newspaper, which gives us the pros and cons of current governmental issues and news of interest to all, Films play a very important part in understanding family problems and the nation's crime. In the study of courts and their procedures, field trips to the city courtrooms are made. Irene and Gunther told us many interesting facts about the governments of their home- lands. This gave us interesting comparisons and new ideas for everyone to think aboutg so we completed a study that should help us to be better citizens. "Keep your eye on the copyv. TYPING IS A REQUIRED SUBJECT FOR IREIYE, who hopes someday to be a private secretary. Typing has almost become a requirement for a successful college career, too. Here, Irene works on a business letter. The typing course is made up of two parts. One part teaches the student how to operate the machine and the other part is the learning of business and personal forms. At the beginning of the year each student lafter paying a fifty cent rental feel, is given a typewriting book and assigned to a typewriter. Several times during the course the pupils are assigned to another typewriter. The purpose of this is for the pupils to learn how to operate the different makes of machines. Typing is taught by Mr. Cooper, Miss Deal and Mrs. Hines. Students try for thirty word or forty word records and take regular speed tests. When Irene returns to her own country, she plans to continue her training for secre- tarial work. Wolfgang solves the problem. WOLFGANG MUST NOT ONLY LEARN MATH IN THIS CLASS, but also how to crack wise. 1And by the way, he's pretty good at both.b Trigonometry and a fourth semester of algebra are given to help the student understand the problems which confront the builder. the engineer and the architect. Consequently, a greater appreciation of art and architecture is furthered. From a vocational standpoint, a knowledge in this field is almost a necessity. This course, taught by Mr. Harvey, serves as a valuable introduction to the mathematics pupils will have in college if they choose to go on. Included is a thorough analysis of trigonometry, solution of triangles, complex nurn- bers, theory of equations, and an introduction to differential and integral calculus. In spring. through held trips, the pupils become acquainted with the use of transits and sextants. But sometimes one parleys an error. lRElNE AND THE FRENCH CLASS must see something tres amusant. Non? In second year French, pictured ahove, the pupils become hetter acquainted with French people, their customs, lives and ideas. The class is partially conducted in French, which is very helpful to the students, Students are given extensixe reading and written work to do. All the second year French class have had French 10, a preliminary course. These pupils are taught how to form the vowelsg then, the various French words. This course takes workg the pupils have to study the vocabularies, getting a good foundation, so the trans- lation will not be so hard. Irene is a wonderful linguistg her French is very smooth, and she makes the class more interesting for all les eleves. Sheila puzzles over English versus Anzericrln, IL'ifl7, Claude looking on. SHEILA IS SITTING IN ENGLISH CLASS. learning the English language, although she was horn in the country where English originated. This class, English IUA, is divided into three sections of twelve weeks each. These ser-tions are speech, grammar and literature.

Some nf the activities ofthe class are to make recordings, give speeehes in comersation, do story telling or selling. Grammar, closely related to speech, has, as its purpose to help pupils form better speech hahits. One of the activities is a diagnostic test. Through literature the pupils get acquainted with great writers of the past and present. The classes have class discussions on stories, Orson Welles records nf Julius Caesar, and spelling and xocabulary study. And so, Sheila, and the rest of us, try for hetter oral expression.

THE STUDENT EUUNCIL What can we do about the booing of the kids at games? Can't we have cleaner halls? Why can't tickets be given to seniors first? Why can't seniors have front row seats? Shall we raise money for a foreign scholarship fund for next year? . . . these are some of the problems that confront the Student Council when it meets in the cafeteria every alternate Tuesday during homeroom period. Jim calls the meeting to order, and in his quiet way begins the business of the day. Mr. French is sitting quietly in the background, in case his sound advice is needed. Mr. Anderson, the other sponsor, is present, too. Representatives from each homeroom are seated around the tables, ready to discuss the "unfinished businessf, Of course, we all know about the foreign scholarship program made possible by the Student Council, but did you know that we owe a lot of our swell assembly programs to the decisions of the Assembly Committee of the Council? The Student Council also regulates and controls hall traffic, operates the stamp savings program, and is the 'Scontactn organization for those money-making magazine drives that we have at the beginning of the year. ln an effort to make all of us take more care in the appearance of the school lawn, the Council was inHuential in getting trash disposal cans placed near each entrance. The Student Council also has a i'Steering Committee" which cracks a whip over the other committees to see that they are functioning. The members of this committee are: Paul Stemm, ,lim Everts, Luther Jackson, Melba Leege. Some other active standing committees this year were: Assembly Planning, George Sarantos, Max Heiden, Marjorie Broadbent, and Jerrie Ganger, Eligibility, Luther Jackson, Dave Farley, Hall Traffic, Richard Reamer, Barbara Scantlen, Louann Adams, Judy Arnold, Awards, Bob Cappelletti, Clark Rhodes, Jean Cutshaw, Carolyn Ericson, Locker and Hall, Stafford Wilburne, Harold Ward, Dick Mclntire, Delores Mann, Point System, Marilyn Canen, Sue Updikeg Reporter, Kay Farr, Stamps and Savings, Ronald Gardner, Bill Berkshire, Mary DeWitt, Katherine Dilorenzo.

Regular reports to the homerooms and discussions which follow keep any student who cares to know in touch with the Council.

T H l P L E - L Remember the girls who sold school stationery, Blue Blazer pins, P.T.A. calendars? Remember those jackets with three Lis on the back? These are signs of Triplevla activities which are going on constantly in E.H.S. The purpose of this club is to be of service to the school and community, raised scholarship standings, and promote trained leadership. Triple-L stands for Learning, Loyalty, and Leadership. The following officers were elected: ,lean Ann Cutshaw, presidentg Kay Leipold, vice-presidentg Rosalie Adams, secretary, Barbara Slack, treasurerg Ann Seifert, sergeant-at-arms, Harriet Wlindmiller. program chairman. With the enthusiasm of their adviser, Miss Siner, these officers made the year a very interesting one for all the girls. To start the year off, the old members held a formal initiation on September 22 and admitted twenty-nine new members. All Triple-L members helped on College Bight by serving as hostesses, On December l2, a Christmas party was held at the home of Jean Cutshaw. Through donations of food and money by its members, the club made up a Christmas basket for a needy family of twelx e. On April 29, the Mother and Daughter Tea was held in honor of the club mothers. The most active committee this year has been the jacket Committee with Ruth Putnam as chairman. The function of this committee is to see that no girls other than those who are now members or were at one time members of the club wear Triple- L jackets. ln most cases immediate results were attained. The concluding activity of the year was the annual picnic honoring the senior girls. Also at 1? this picnic the president for the next year and temporary officers were elected. ln this manner did the Triple-L conclude a very active year with the seniors Wishing next yearas group as much fun and enjoyment as they had this year. vmnve. -....., -fx.

DISTHIBUTIVE EUUEATIUN CLUB Sometimes a club, sometimes a class . . . hut always doing things and always having fun as we accomplish them, that's the Distributive Education group. The twenty- three students meet with Miss Kirkland every day to study the art of retailing. Since a part of the course is putting this learning into practice in the downtown stores, we have little time to meet after school and have organized our club within the class time, as is the custom of the national organization, to which we belong. Miss Kirkland, our sponsor, is our inspirationg it is an education just to be with her, she gives us personal help as well as a fine background in good business ethics. Our officers are: Elinor Shaurn, presidentg Tom White, vice- presidentg Janet Magnuson, secretary, John Collins. treasurerg Barbara Lou Scott, social chairman. We had several parties and good times together. At the club meetings, talks are given by business men or skits and demonstrations in selling, or films are shown, the purpose of the club being to develop progressive and respected leadership in retailing and in school, to en- courage high ethical standards, to encourage improve- ment in scholastic and personal goals. Barbara Lou Scott represented our club at the national convention of D. E. Clubs at Tulsa. YVe earned money for her expenses by selling at games and selling lost and found articles at auction.

Mr. Donald Wlinne, who enjoys working with people in general, spends a good deal of his time assisting these fellas in every task, no matter how small. Under his care- ful guidance, these boys have acquired many skills. Running projectors, developing film, printing pictures, enlarging pictures-these are only a few of the things that the boys learned. The Vis Ed Club is a class, a homeroom, and a club, all in one. Meeting daily in homeroom, they can plan the dayls schedule of films to be shown, by careful program planning there is an operator available almost every hour of the day. The Vis Ed Club, last year, under the sponsorship of Mr. Felmlee, brought equipment and built their own dark room. This year, Mr. Winne and the club members have added improvements and materials, with the result that a well- equipped dark room is available to all club members. Plans are now under way for the purchase of a club camera. Mr. Winne hopes to build up a photographic department that will really function for the school, as well as give experience to the Vis Ed boys. Last fall, the boys decided that, like any other club, they needed some officers to take the responsibility of leadership. Ted Schrock was elected presidentq Jack Clevenger, vice- presidentg Bill Kreighbaum, secretary, and Dick Tompkins, treasurer. At the beginning of the second semester the club held a re-election of officers. Ronald Johnson was elected president, Ted Schrock, vice-president, Bill Kreighbaum, secretary, and Dick Tompkins, treasurer. px, New caps or the Ushers Club Y USHEHS CLUB Where is 17?

These boys, with the help of their sponsor, Mr. Robert L. Isbell, were held responsible for the meetings and programs carried out through the year. Each shop represented tsix in alll will have charge of one meeting during the year. The teachers of these shops. Mr. Isbell, Mr. Hamilton, Mr. Morgan, Mr. Abel, Mr. Reith. Mr. Hart, and Mr. Anderson, are the big wheels in getting the club rolling full-speed ahead. These big programs give each shop more of a chance to present some part of its particular type of work. The object to have members of the Industrial Club become better acquainted with the shops and what students do in these shops. On November 16, 1950, the auto shop students with the aid of Mr. Morgan explained the use of testing machines in "tuning upw cars. With these instruments, most of the Nguess. worku is eliminated in ntuning upi' automobile engines. A trip to the Studebaker Corporation Plant in South Bend, Indiana, was taken. Eight students and sponsors made the trip by bus. The highlights of the trip were going through the toolroom. the maintenance and production areas, and seeing the production of a Studebaker car from beginning lo end, which is a thrill for any modern hoy. They were told about employment possibilities and how each part of the plant is coordinated to make a complete unit. As a result of this. t11e cluh learned that cooperation hetueen the men and the departments uere essential in the worlrl of today. ln February. as it was Ben ldranklin week. the print shop hots sponsored a trip through the American Coating Mills plant in Elkhart on January 18.

Le Cercle Ifrancais was organized mainly for the purpose of offering students the motive and the means to improve in French conversation. and to obtain a more thorough under- standing of France and its people. It establishes an inter- national relationship and creates a feeling of understanding toward peoples of other countries. Mrs. Avery. the French teacher, is the sponsor of the club and the officers are: president, jerrie Richard, vice- president, Betty Bihbog secretary, Marge Broadbent, treas- urer, Ioan Taylor. The club consists of the members of the French classes, approximately forty-five, and the meetings are held every third WBdllCSdBy of the month in the cafeteria. The honorary members include our foreign students, Irene Larsson, Gunther Freischutz, and Claude Picard, also any persons who have ever studied any French. The club gains valuable information by listening to guest speakers. During the course of the year the members Mr. Abel tells us about Paris. Hin 1111 nl LE CEHELE FRANCAIS have heard talks given by Irene Larsson, Claude Picard, who also showed slides, and Mr. Abel, who told about his experiences in France. At Christmas time, Le Cercle Francais went through the school halls and sang Christmas carols in French. This helped to create a Christmas feeling. The club sold concessions at the Nappanee-Elkhart basket- ball game. On May 27, the club had their annual 'Stine Soiree Francais". The program consisted of two plays, French songs, instrumental music and refreshments. The casts for the plays were: Paris Interlude: Jacque Livinghouse, Elizabeth Beck, Betty Pribble and Mary Furfaro, Les Amies: Helen Fox, Irene Larsson, Claude Picard, Phyllis Hartley, Barbara Scott, Roger Bowdish and Clara Mutzl. The club presented Irene and Claude with identification bracelets and E.l'I.S. pins. These were tokens of remem- brance from the French Club. Crack calls numbers for lottery. THE SPANISH CLUB Hola, Amigos! Habla Yd. el espanol? lf so, then you know what fun the newly-organized EI Cirttulo Espanol had the past year under the sponsorship of Miss Gladys King. El Circulo Espanol is divided into three groupsg those students in first and second year Spanish courses, and those who have completed their two years of language, but are still interested in the Spanish Club activities. Marilyn Kretschmer is the president of the second-year group with Bob Peterson acting as vice-president, Jewel Larimer. secretary, Sylvia Diehl planning the social activities. and Butch Waterman raking in the money.

Under the direction of Mr. Howard James, the kids work on lettering posters, modeling clay, decorating bulletin boards, and most of all, learning to work together. With their president, ,lean Hammon, vice-president, Sally Troyer, and secretary-treasurer, Rosemary Lutz, the club has had an active year. Our bulletin boards have shown this with their eye-catching posters and displays. To make the meeting more interesting the club had exents, such as speakers like Mr. Ernest Smith from Ziesel's Department Store, who spoke on window decorating. ,N At another meeting the club took a trip to the luhl Advertising Agency for demonstrations. These are only a few of the activities in which the Paint in Palette participate for the purpose of furthering their education in the field of art.

The main purposes of the Florence Nightingale Lamp Club are to interest girls in this profession. nursing, to acquaint them with nursing and related subjects, and to provide some special interests for the members. The president, Jean Gampher, is capably assisted by her cabinet, which consists of vice-president. Jackie Rohrg secretary, Mary DeWittg and treasurer. Ruth Cripe. Mrs. Helen Schreiner, our school nurse, is the sponsor. The girls in the club help Mrs. Schreiner in the dispensary during their study halls. This gives the girls valuable experience in simpler forms of caring for illnesses. Each day they must take care of many patients. An accurate record is kept of everyone who comes to the dispensary. No matter how large or small the illness may be, it must be recorded. These future nurses have full use and hold the responsibility of the equipment in this pleasant, modern room. The club, which meets every fourth Tuesday, has increased its membership from forty-two to fifty-two girls. With programs at the meetings, the girls attain valuable knowledge which they receive from speakers in the nursing profession or see demonstrations in first aid. This information becomes valuable in their knowledge of first-aid when emergencies arrive at the dispensary. A Mother-Daughter tea and a picnic completed the year's social activities.

JUNIOR AEAUEMY UP SEIENEE A great tribute to the Elkhart Junior Academy of Science was the honor bestowed upon David Thomas this year. Dave was elected president of the State Junior Academy of Science. This gave him many extra duties and threw the spotlight on the Elkhart club. As always the club spent a Saturday in September at Bristol Fruit Hills, picking ap- proximately SUO bushels of apples. Various members attended the State Junior Academy of Science meeting at Hanover college on November 3 and 4, 1950. The meeting was divided by a pleasant stay at Versailles State Park, this being a cooperative trip including the Mishawaka and South Bend Junior Academies. Dr. Alfred Free of Miles Research Labora- tory spoke to the club, later a tour of Miles Laboratory was made. Dixie Rittenhouse entered the State and National Science Talent Search Contest. Dixie, Dave Thomas, and Miss Evelyn Waggoner attended the awards program at Indianapolis on March 24. Hearing reports on Student projects, re- vising the constitution, bringing the club history up to date, and compiling and publish- ing the State News Letter took a great deal of time. Committees worked on these. President Dixie Rittenhouse was assisted by Bill Berkshire, vice-president, and Barbara Slack, secretary-treasurer. Miss Waggoner was the real guiding hand of the year's prospering club program. Another gang of Miss Kellyix galley slaves. PENNANT WEEKLY Wliaff the latest vhattc-'r'f Wlnfs In-'en dating: late-ly?

On April seventh, the Xvorkshop won a first with Feathertop at Ball State Teachers, College in a contestg before that the gang did a demonstration radio broada cast for a state teachers' meeting at the Wallace High School in Cary. The success of these three weekly shows and the many contests is largely due to the untiring efforts of Mr. Galen Wenger, Workshop director and Speech Cluh sponsor.

Willoughby dutifully practiced the piano, swallowed gallons of Cod Liver Oil and ate turnips. which he loathed. He had to say fiddlesticks instead of gee and listen to his aunts arguments over whether he should become a lawyer, musician or an architect. This is when impish Inner Willy pops out of thin air Mon a burpi' to goad sedate, somewhat stuffy, Willoughby into unbending and being himself.

The Held is beautifully laid out, with well- cared for turf, powerful Hood lights and a total stadium caparity of 10,000 people. The Field House with showers, and storage and dressing rooms was donated by the support of students, fans, and athletic depart- ment in l924. On the walls hang pictures of teams and coaches, the roster of Blazer teams. Most of the football games are night games, and draw large crowds. There is no finer sight, on a nice fall evening, than Rice Field with its colorful array of players and spectators. The E.H.S. Marching Band, performing at the half, adds greatly to this display of color and performance. Since l895, E.H.S. football teams have maintained a record of good clean sportsmanship. 6 -,.'5g,X.KH4 ?'

Coach Bill Milliner employed a zone defense which worked effectively except for the third quarter, as the jimmies fast-breaked to several baskets. Carv Emersonis High Schoolis basketball team was the second victim for the Blue Blazers at the EHS gym, 67--13. Their zone defense enabled Blazers to shoot at will from both long and short range. Six-foot. three inch tip-in artist Balph Kauffman, assisted by stocky Doug Grant, led the Blazer scoring with 21 and lf! points. On Dec. 1, the Blue Blazers cooked up a 64-53 win over vounty rival Goshen Bedskins in the Elkhart gym. Twenty- three out of thirty-four free throws for Goshen helped prevent a one-sided game as Elkhart Won its nineteenth straight victory over the Bedskin cagers. Elkhart had a better than average night, with .321 percent. The EHS team looked ragged despite their 47-39 win over LaPorte's disorganized Slicers in the Blazer gym. The Blazers. having a cool evening. banged in only 20 of 89 Feld tries and 7 of lil free throws. Fortunately. lNorm lrlubneris inexperiens-ed Slit-ers were less effective. With the reserve manpower accounting for 35 points. the Blazer basketball team added a 57 to 26 win over Scott High School of Toledo on Dee. 9.

Playing their first game away from home on Dec. 15, the Blazers extended their win streak to six in a row. Elkhart led at the end of the third quarter by a 56-23 margin. Then they elected to stall out the remainder of the game. Next, the Elkhart Blazers had to fight back furiously in the last 4 minutes to overtake Boosevelt's fired-up Bough- riders. This win extended Elkharfs win streak to seven in a row. On Dec. 22, the Elkhart cage squad suffered its first defeat in eight starts, losing to the fiery Martinsville Artesians. The locals, hampered 'isomewhatw by the down- state officiating, out-fouled their opponents 28-13.

The Blazers were in rare shooting form, dropping them in from all angles. They hit a near record percentage of .507. Next night, Auburn's crowding defense. plus accuracy at the freevthrow line, enabled them to cop a close one from the Blazers. Elkhart had trouble all through the first half with Auburn's defense and with finding their shooting range. The Blues, trailing by 11 points at the half, came roaring back in the last frame, only to fall short by two big ones, 51-49. The loss was the fourth in twelve starts for Elkhart. After the starting five dazzled Michigan City into a 42-15 half-time score on Jan. 12, Coach Milliner sent in the reserves to coast home to a 54-30 victory. It was the fourth win without a loss in Eastern N. 1, H. S. C. play. On Jan. 19, at North Side the Blazers came through in the first half to lead 33-19 when the gun sounded inter- mission. Elkhart cooled off somewhat the last half, getting only twelve points while North collected twenty, but the first half lead proved too much for the Redskins with the Blues on top of a 45-39 score, Nappanee High School's fired-up Bulldogs extended the Blazers to the wire before going down 51-46 in the last minute of play on Jan. 23. The veteran Naps outshot the Blazers in the first half to take a five-point lead. After Elkhart's ragged first half, they came fighting back to take their eleventh game. Forward Kauffman and Guard Pagedas led the attack with 19 and 16 points respectively. On Jan. 26, Goshenis basketball team, whose split-second passing and shooting worked to near perfection, pushed rival Blue Blazers before losing a 46-44 decision in the Goshen school gym.

E Blass of '52 When we came back to EHS. last September, we were looking forward to our third year in high school. Our first big event of the year was our ,lunior Follies, which was presented October I9 in the high school audi- torium. We called it 'KThe Mystic lslefl David Thomas was our Master of Ceremonies and our own Junior Class Orchestra played. We were all happy when we found that it was a big success. ln November, we elected our class officers for the year. They were: David Thomas, Presidentg Kay Farr, Vice- Presidentg Kay Miller and Norma Plummer, Secretary, Bruce Lund, Treasurerg Mary DeWitt, Girls, Social Chair- mang and Ronnie Linton, Boys' Social Chairman. Of course, ll4 IUNIOR OFFICERS: Kay Farr, vice presizlentg Kay Miller, secrelaryg Miss Deal, sponsor, Bruce Lund, treasurer, standing: Mr. Hart, sponsor, Mary DeWitt, girls' social clzairmang Ronnie Linton, boys' social clzairniang Dave Thomas, presiflenl. our sponsors, Miss Deal and Mr. Hart, elected in our sophomore year were still with us. The next few months we amused ourselves with new clubs, homework, football and basketball games. We sold con- cessions at the Michigan City game and participated in the other class activities. On January 27, we had our second class party in the gym. We had lots of sandwiches, pop, and potato chips to eat and everyone had a good time. We presented our class play, The Hoosier Schoolmasterf' on Friday, April 13 in the auditorium. Everyone did a good job and we were very pleased. Our final and perhaps biggest event of the year was our Junior-Senior Prom, which was held on May 19. Thus, our junior year ended. Now we're looking forward to being seniors.

SENIUH HISTUHY IEU ELA55 UF 1351 Motto: Not finished, just begun Colors: Blue and silver As we came through the doors of EHS in the early' part of September, 19413, we took our first big step 'toward our high school careers. Pushing and shoving our way through the masses of students, we couldn't see how we would ever acquire the smoothness and sophisticated attitude of the seniors. Later in the year, we organized our classfthe class of -51. Our officers were: Dave Farley, presidentg Shirley Leonard, vice-president, Rowena Pletcher, secretary Q Delvin Landis, treasurer: Roberta Rude and Fred Stow, social chairmen. As our sponsors we chose lVliss Anna Amsbaugh and Mr. Donald Wlinne. Soon after, Mary Whitt and her committee selected our class jewelry, dues were collected, and various money- making projects were discussed. To conclude our year as sophomores, we had a party on May 14 at Studebaker Park. Returning in the fall to what everyone had said would be the Hbiggest year of our livesii, we chose our class officers, who were: Dave Farley, president, Bob Cappelletti, yice-president, Rowena Pletcher, secretary, Delvin Landis, treasurer, Shirley Leonard and Fred Stow, social chairmen. Our sponsors, Miss Amsbaugh and Mr. Winne, were back with us again. On October T, 1949, Elkhart converted to dial phones, which gave us the theme for our hrst big event, our Junior Follies, appropriately named 'ADial Day Doingsf' The response of the audience made us feel that our evening was a success. We worked long and hard preparing for our class play, '6Cuckoos On The Hearthfl It was presented on March 17. under the direction of Miss C. Christine Hughes. Our year was climaxed on May 20 when we showed our appreciation to the seniors by the Junior-Senior Prom, with the theme "Dreamer's Wishesf, We closed our year as Juniors with a class picnic. September 1950 came and found us ready for the home stretch. Our Senior Class play, Quality Street was presented December T, a costume play, well received. In January, we began to think about graduation. We ordered our caps and gowns, being the first class to have white for the girls and blue for the boys. We ordered name cards and announcements, and made many' plans. In May' activities began lsee next pager ending with that long- awaited date, Commencement, June 6.

It costs you nothing at the High Dive Swimming Pool, not even for a private dressing room and wire basket in which to keep your clothes. These baskets are kept behind the counter while you enjoy yourself in the water or on the sand. If you go often, you will learn to swim and dive. You will also find some im- provements at the High Dive in 1951. Swimming is the best of exercise and pays dividends in health and happiness.
