In no other country have the people worked out so fully the purpose of making a system of public education good' enough for rich and poor alike, and with equal opportunity for all, and in no other country have the results shown forth to better advantage in the general intelligence, poise, good judgment, and productive capacity of the people."-Ellwood P.

Ted Linder, Tom Hartzler, and Lewis Hickner did quite well in football last fall. Junior basketball players who will give the opposing teams considerable oppo- sition next year are Tom Hartzler, Paul Davis, and Maurice Miller. Some of the capable debaters in this class are June Havens, Joyce Wentz, and Martha Nell Scott. Edsel Yarling, Virginia Shaw, and Robert Hin- shaw are members of the Junior class who are on the Crescent Staff. Among this group we find some talented mu- sicians, also. Leonora Nelder, Alice Bambrough, and Adelma Bell are in the Concert Choirg and Kent Dawson, Robert Hinshaw, and James Burns are in the band. Several Juniors take part in dramatics. Some of these are June Havens, Jeanette Harpold, Joyce Wentz, Nellie Mike, and Martha Nell Scott. Junior Officers L-. ,..,. .f:. ,Q. ,.,, my ,W ,W .55 . 5 ,.., W A I ::,,: :.Zia f gf ,L' Q .

Some of the ictive football players are Edward Courtney, Ralph Eollier, William Davies, and Robert Moore. Then, if course, there is our basketball hero, Mulf Davis. t is too bad for opposing teams that he does not graduate this year. This class of "41" has musical talent also. In the concert choir we discover capable singers, such as Lucille Johns, Ann Whitenack, Jahree Snyder, and Gloria Bell. Lucy Digel is interested in debating. The Sophomores who take part in dramatic activities are Betty Davis, Martha Brunson, and Dorthy Dellinger. Sophomores 1 if fl.- , A Qiiigm N Q --V ....-.

This play concerned the initiation of a Freshman girl into the ways of a coedu- cational college. She had lived in Europe mostly, and her mother had taught her the things she herself had been taught as a girl. Soon after her arrival, Geraldine overheard and revealed to the football star of the college a plot perpetrated by members of a rival school. This plot would have rendered Bus, the star player, unable to participate in the main game of the season. Little Geraldine's act prevented the catastrophe, and the great football hero himself took her to the prom. So our little Freshman "goat" turned out to be a swan.

The resignation of Mr. Shinn brought about the arrival of Mr. Guenther as head football instructor. Mr. Guenther formerly starred for Hanover College. Hard luck pursued our Panthers. Ineligibility and injuries took a heavy toll on the fortunes of our boys. The Panthers lacked experience, which meant more misfortune. True, the season was any- thing but successful, but the real purpose of any sport is to make better persons out of the boys. The Panthers did achieve that. We opened the season with Clark of Hammond. The up-staters downed our Panthers 18 to 0. Anderson took a heartbreaker from us, after the boys had the LIPPCI' hand all the way. Marion and Wabash provided the next two defeats. The Kokomo game saw the first Panther scores. The strong Kokomo eleven was forced to a 20 to 12 win by the Panthers. After losing to Cathedral of Indianapolis and Peru, the boys won their first victory in defeating Noblesville. The Panthers rolled over the Millers to the tune of 19 to 7. In the season's finale the boys dropped a game to the powerful Muncie Bearcats. ' The line play of Co-Captain Ora Hittle, Bob juday, Tom Hartzler, and Bob Moore was out- standing throughout the season, as was the back- field work of Co-Captain Mickey Carmody, who won honorable mention honors in the Central In- diana Conference. Those Seniors awarded sweaters were Mickey Carmody, Ora Hittle, Bernard Mang- helli, james Fouch, Robert juday, Robert Whit- tinghill, George Ball, and Harry Updegraff.

THE 1938-'59 BASKETBALL SEASON The 1938-'39 edition of the Elwood High School basketball team proved to be one of the best teams we have ever had. We faced perhaps the most difii- cult schedule ever drawn up for an Elwood team. Some of the outstanding aggregations that we met were South Side, last year's champions, Frankfort, the outstanding contender this season, Burris of Muncie, and Central of South Bend. We did not win all of our games, but we made a showing worthy of raise. P We started off the season in high gear, winning the first six games by handy margins. Our first loss occurred against Burris in the 4-Team Invitational Tournament held on New Year's Eve. The feature of this early part of the season was Mulford fMuffj Davis's 31 points against Tipton. That particular feat drew praise and astonishment from all corners of the State. The rest of the season was one tough team after another. Our record at the end of the season stood at ten won and twelve lost. However, one glance at the caliber of teams that we faced is sufficient to offset any discouraging remarks. The biggest event of any Hoosier basketball team is the March tournament. We were paired against Lapel, which had the pleasure of upsetting our boys the year before. When the gun barked its ending, our boys had their revenge, beating Lapel 34 to 26. Anderson was our next foe, and it proved to be a fitting ending for our net season. The Indians were heavy favorites to win, and after the first half, it appeared as if they would win, the score standing at 15 to 3. The last half was an entirely different story. During this half we played Anderson off their feet, so to speak, and only by queer quirks of fate did we go down in glorious defeat, 31 to 28. It was the nearest an Elwood COACH j. P.

Harold was one of the sharpshooters on the squad. He had a very peculiar shot, but he could hit the hoop. His follow-in shots helped greatly to secure the fine record of the team. Maurice Miller, junior, forward, height hve feet ten inches, weight 150 pounds. Maury was the first of three boys to come from the "B" team to a place on the varsity. He is a good shot, and will be counted on to make plenty of baskets next season. Mulford Davis, Sophomore, center, height six feet one inch, weight 182 pounds. Muff was the outstanding player on the team. Besides being high scorer of his own team, he won the Central Indiana Conference scorin title. He has two years of eligibility yet, and should become a truly grea player. He was acting captain this year. Raymond Nuding, Sophomore, guard, height six feet, weight 148 pounds. Ray was the third reserve to become a varsity man. He saw much action in the last games of the year. Calm, cool, and collected describes him aptly. Robert Brown, Senior, forward, height five feet eleven inches, weight 165' pounds. Brownie was the mainstay of the Panthers for three years. Thi year he was hampered by illness, but by sectional time he proved his tru value. His excellent playing will be missed sorely. i em- I . .- .- H -., W... 1 .. if me -r . at im , in 5 Q y X . p ZZV .. l 5 l it . r' .1 K . 5? ft TOURNEY TEN homas Hartzler, junior, guard, height six feet one inch, weight 166 ounds.

He was the regular run- ning guard, and could really move. Since he is but a junior, he will be oack next year to continue his net warfare. Michael Carmody, Senior, guard, height five feet six inches, weight 136 ounds. Mickey fought his way from an obscure place on the bench to a osition on the starting five. His claim to fame was his last-second winning asket against Tipton. He was a very hard worker. George justice, Senior, forward, height five feet nine inches, weight 142 pounds. George spent most of his time as a reserve. He was one of the first to see action when help was needed, however. He was a member of the isquad for two years. lBruce Robbins, junior, center, height six feet two inches, weight 155 pounds. Bruce also worked his way up to the varsity. He is a tall lad and has the correct build to become a fine player. He proved to be a high scorer with the "B" team. , iii wwf aw lf' A if a- 5 Q M 1 i 5 M t M E if basketball team ever came to beating Anderson.

These players should form the nucleus of an even better team next year. A word of praise should be given Bob Brown, departing Senior.

Since its organization at the beginning of the '38 and '39 basketball season, this club has formed the nucleus for all cheering at pep sessions and at basketball games, Regular yelling practices were held after school. The club has activities other than that of cheering. lt sponsored a tour- nament dance after the 4-Team Invitational Tournament, December 31. To this dance were invited members of the three other schools entered in the tournament: Burris, Alexandria, and Mishawaka. The latest undertaking of the club was card stunting. The stunting was done by means of red, white, and blue colored cardboards. The club members would hold the right colored card above their heads and form different letters. The card stunting added color to the games and provided entertainment for the fans during the intermissions. The club did remarkably well in uniting its voices and spirit. It is some- thing which the Elwood High School students have needed for some time. The ofhcers for the past season were the following fsee picture below, left to rightj: President, Wayne Drakeg Cheer Leader, Stephen Secretary-Treasurer, Bertha Nell Siglerg Song Leaders, Mayo Coiner and Ann Lois Leesong Cheer Leader, Perley Deal.

In our shop foundry, aluminum or brass is melted ar poured into molds made of sand, which produces a metal casting. , Before any article can be cast from metal, a pattern, or duplicate, of tl desired article must be made from wood or metal. This pattern is then moldc in sand in such a manner that the pattern can be removed from the sar leaving a hollow place in the sand of the same shape as the pattern. Moltc metal is then poured into the mold through openings previously made in tl sand. Wlien the metal has hardened, it is removed from the sand, whc cold, the waste parts are removed. The casting is then cleaned and finishc on a polishing head by using a scratch brush and a polishing wheel. IEXPLANATIONS OF ILLUSTRATIONS I. Making a head stock pattern for a wood-turning lathe. 2.

In the spring of 1938 at the convention of the Indiana Federation of Music Clubs held at Indianapolis, George won first place in the vocal bass division. He is a member of the Concert Choir, and was one of the leading characters in an operetta recently given by the music department. Lura Blackburn won the Latin contest for the county this year. This contest covers the Latin taught up to and including the "Commentaries" of Caesar. The contest was held in Alexandria. We are wishing Lura luck in all the contests including the State Hnals. Claribel Allen is shown here as a worker in the Call Leader' office. She is one of our outstanding students and has always been a great help in the many undertakings she has shared with her schoolmates. The Student Council is composed of members of the Sophomore, junior, and Senior classes. The members shown here are Mary Flowers, Edsel Yarling, Leonora Nelder, Elizabeth Sage, Betty Davis, Mayo Coiner, Nellie Mike, Merl Smith, Joanne Vinson, and Geneva Sides. Billy Harney and james White are members also. In order to make the Honor Roll, it is necessary for a pupil to make at least four E's. The first semester Honor Roll students were John Strecker, Velma Perkins. Wayne Drake, Elizabeth Smith, james Hackett, Betty Davis, and Mayo Coiner. STUDENT COUNCIL HONOR ROLL STUDENTS Some Outstanding Pupils I r STEPHEN LEWELLYN BEI IY JANE HIATT GEORGE KNOPP SOME OUTSTANDING PUPILS Stephen is one of the most all-around boys in our school. He is one of the cheer leaders, an Eagle Scout, president of the Senior class, and a good student. He is the chief photographer on the Crescent staff. The picture shows him working in the dark room at the studio. Betty Jane Hiatt won the Madison County American Legion Americanism oratorical contest this spring. Her subject was, "Our Hope--the Con- stitution." We all knew Betty was a good speaker and were pleased to have her win. George Knopp is one of our finest pianists. Whenever we want some good swing music, we call on George. He never disappoints us. Did you know that we have the "Swingsters," an excellent group of entertainers, in our very midst? This group provides music for sorority and school dances, and for the Country Club. It also fills numerous out-of-town engagements. The members consist of the following: Robert Hinshaw, saxophoneg George Sides, trumpet, Perley Deal, drum, Geneva Sides, piano, and Alberta Brier, vocalist. This group was organized about four years ago. We of the Crescent staff are especially proud of our sports editor, james White. james decided long ago that he wanted to become a sports writer, so he applied for a position on the staff of the Call Leader. The first name of his column was "Tossing the Pigskin," and he has changed the name from time to time to suit the season. He intends to go to college for extra training in his chosen field.
