(Reef Denble The largest and most colorful organization in the school is the Red Derbies. Never really organized until this fall, the club, under the direction of Mr. Buchanan, has gotten admirable results from its program for the promotion of school spirit. High-points of the Derbies’ year were their spectacular bonfire before the LaPorte game and the swell decorations that the club put up for the sectional.

 ootbc l These boys certainly do make handsome Romeos with their headgear, shoulder pads, and crimson and white jersies. Don't you think so? Or don't you? Remember seeing them at Ames field last fall and after school sweating, and groaning, and dirt collecting at practice? They started a new era in football for Michigan City, together with our new coach, Duane Purvis, and night football under the lights at Ames Field. The boys started the season by losing a tough battle to Parker High of Chicago, 7-0. Next Niles, Goshen, and St. Mary’s fell before the Devil on-rush by decisive scores. Afterwards the Imps failed to annex a single victory, losing to Central, Riley, Washington, Elkhart, and LaPorte in succession. La Porte’s three B’s—Banks, Bachman, and Buschner— proved too much for the Imps; LaPorte wron, 31-0. The plunging of Captain Stan Senderak, the open field running of Smiertelny and Jankowski, and Stevens’ passing ability composed the running attack of Michigan City, backed up in the line by such bruisers as Lubke, Oszuscik, Brooker, Paulin, Allie, Schultz, and Lueth. The success of this year’s team was fair, but next year’s hopes loom bright on the showing of the scrub team. It is said that great teams are built, and this year’s team is only a step toward the future successful teams of Coach Duane Purvis. Coach Purvis, Clarence Schlundt, John Schaeffer, start the pictures on the opposite page. Top: Frank Allie, Howard Brooker, Spiro Danos Middle: Oscar Lubke, Kenneth Lueth, Floryan Oszuscik, Richard Paulin, Frank Rebac Bottom: Howard Schultz, Bernard Smiertelny, Edgar Stevens, Vincent Sypnieski, Jack Utley Below are Captain Senderak and Ted Jankowski, voted our most valuable player. And here’s the squad. AH SaUAD The following boye are members of the A football squad. The I.H.S1A.A. requires that they be passing in three full-time subjects at the time of playing a game. In the proper column below corresponding to the date, immediately following receipt of this blank, place the grade of any students you have in your classes. Please return to the clerk today. CFH

Marj Farber is interested in watching Susan Kinsey complete a dive in the “Y” pool. Charlotte Leverenz, Irma Nygren, and Edna Soller are trying to prevent Cassie Mae Thomas from making a goal. Maryann Honyak and Beatrice Vulpitta take the jump off, while Betsy Dingier is ready to receive the ball and take it down the floor for a bucket. Phyllis Passage, Violet Morton, Edith Laskey, Virginia Esper, Jacquette Hart, and Marie Pahl are ready for the whistle to start the puck. By the expression on Kathryn Long’s face, I’d say that she must be expecting something — June Storey, too. Natalie Johnson, Betty Schilf, and Alice Steinke are standing by. 23
