The B u s i n e s s Education Depart- ment at Riley offers, in reality, two types of train- ing. One type trains students who want to qualify for employment in the business world immediately upon graduation from high school. The other type consists of informational courses dealing with business organi- zation, functioning, and management. Katherine Van Buskirk Dept. Head Students who are enrolled in the Business Educa- tion Department are taking the following subjects in the branches most adequate: bookkeeping, typing, shorthand, business correspondence, commercial geography, salesmanship, ofhce practice, and retail merchandising. The pupils in the latter two classes, in their Senior A semester, are given the opportunity to manifest their ability, and to observe and correct their particular weaknesses, by working in a store or office for six weeks, thereby gaining valuable practice in their individual field. Bookkeeping, business correspondence, salesman- ship, and retail merchandising may all be classed as both vocational and informative subjects. Shorthand, typing, and office practice are purely vocational. All subjects in this curriculum are elective, and vary in the number of elections by pupil requirements. In the matter of size, classes in the Business Education Department rank in about this order: typing, short- hand, bookkeeping, salesmanship, office practice, commercial geography, business correspondence, and retail merchandising. Graduates of today are finding it unwise to pre- pare for just one field because of the rapidly chang- ing economic conditions which make any prediction of the future uncertain. A broad foundation of which both academic and non-academic courses are a part may prove to make employment easier as well as more lucrative. Riley High School is particularly fortunate in hav- ing such a complete course in this work and also in having such a competent and well trained staff, head- ed by Miss Van Buskirk, who is ably assisted by Mr. Bachtel, Miss Kern, Mr. Koch, Mr. Martin, Miss Wyrick, and Mr. Yoder. Miss Van Buskirk has a B.A. degree from West- ern College and a M.A. degree from Northwestern. Mr. Bachtel has received a B.A. degree from Notre Dame. He also has a MA. degree from Indiana. Besides having a considerable amount of graduate work from Chicago University, Miss Kern has a B.A. degree from Michigan State Teachers' College. Business Education Mr. Koch has received a Bachelor of Education degree from Western Illinois State Teachers College, a Bachelor of Commercial Science degree from Notre Dame, and he is now working on his M.A. degree from Notre Dame. Mr. Martin has a B.A. degree from Indiana Uni- versity and a MA. degree from Chicago University. Miss Wyrick, besides having a B.A. degree from Franklin College, has a M.A. degree from North- western. Mr. Yoder has received a B.A. degree from Man- chester and is at present working on a MA. degree from Indiana University. The laboratory periods oliered Senior students in the ofiice practice and retail merchandising classes is an interesting phase of the work done in the Busi- ness Education Department. Those in Miss Van Buskirk's ofiice practice classes leave school each afternoon for assignments in various ofiices throughout the city. Only part of the class is assigned at a time, the rest remaining to continue regular class activities. They alternate at the end of a two week period until all assigned have served six weeks. While at the ofiices these students receive ex- perience in filing, typing, and secretarial work. They become accustomed to actual Office procedure, and rind the experience a valuable aid in adjusting them- selves to the job after graduation. The procedure in Mr. Koch's merchandising class is much the same. Out of this class of thirty, half were assigned to the leading downtown stores for a period of three weeks while the other half remained in class. These groups alternated until all had spent six weeks in the business laboratory. Personnel managers of the stores were glad to co- operate. Students were hrst put through the mark- ing and stock rooms and after they had become ac- customed to the store, they were put on the fioor under a supervisor. Stress was laid on the student attempting to apply, in actual selling, the principles of retailing learned in the classroom. In both these classes students received grades on the quality of the work, this grade becoming part of their semesters final grade. On May 16, the merchandising class and Mr. Yoder's salesmanship classes journeyed to Marshall Field's store. In Chi- cago, they visited the Board of Trade to see the famous Wheat Pit in ac- tion, and the display rooms in the Mer- chandising Mart. Included also was a visit to the Na- tional Broadcasting Company's Studio, Station WMAQ. .

Hugh Yoder George Koch V. O. Bachtel Lionel Martin It was Robert Maynard Hutchins, the President of Chicago University, who said, 'iCorrect- ness in thinking may be more direct- ly and impressively taught through mathematics than in any other way. If you have studied mathematics in high school you are able to perceive clearly the truthfulness of this well-worded statement. This curriculum is very instrumental in bringing about the efficient and effective use of your thinking facilities. Bernice Clark Dept. Head With Miss Clark as its head the mathematics de- partment of Riley High School has succeeded in building its program to meet the practical and voca- tional needs of the students. Students who are planning to enter any of the professions which require a college education as a preparation, will find it necessary to have included the Algebra-Geometry sequence in their high school course-a year of each being required by most stand- ard colleges. The alert and capable head of the mathematics department, Miss Clark, has, through her industrious efforts, made mathematics one of the better known divisions here at Riley. Many students graduated from this school have been successful in their par- ticular lield of higher figures. Algebra, taught by Miss Shively, Miss Clark, and Mr. Stech, concerns the formulas, equations, the building and interpretation of graphs. These classes dwell upon the short, concise methods of solving problems. JLd,W.t,-H- . Scene in a Geometry II class. Mathematics The 1941 State Mathematics team. Geometry is intended to increase the student's power of comprehension and reasoning, and to help him appreciate the practical aspects of the subject by applying its principles to the solution of problems in engineering, architecture, and science. This divi- sion of mathematics is taught by Miss Murphy, Miss Kitson, Miss Clark, and Mr. Stech. Miss Clark is in charge of the solid geometry class, which subject goes beyond plain geometry to include a study of figures of space, for example, prisms, cylinders, cones, pyramids, and spheres. Plane trigonometry is concerned mainly with the relation of lines in a triangle, and constitutes the basis of the mensuration used in such work as sur- veying, engineering, mechanics, and astronomy. Miss Clark teaches the one class in this study. Miss Borg has charge of a class in junior high school mathematics. Miss Kitson, Miss Murpliy, and Miss Shively are entrusted with the courses in high school arith- metic. This subject is planned to meet the needs of the consumers everyday problems. It is accepted for high school graduation, but it is not accepted for college entrance requirements. Students in commercial arithmetic are ably in- structed by Miss Murphy and Mr. Stech, which sub- Mary A.

Trade mathematics, taught by Mr. Stilson and Mr. Webb, is offered to boys who are taking a trade course. The purpose of this subject is to enable boys to solve, in the most practical way. that particu- lar class of problems actually occurring in the shops. A very worthwhile phase of the mathematics de- partment is the teams which compete annually in state-wide mathematics contests. Some of the Riley students who have been successful in these brain teasing battles are as follows: Robert Schrader, who won the state contest in 1935, achieved a master de- gree in four years at Purdue, has obtained a three year fellowship, yielding S600 a year. at the Massa- chusetts Institute of Technology. QThe next three boys were graduates of 1937 and the contest in which each participated took place in 1935l. Chester Feld- man. who attained the highest rating in the State Comprehension Contest, has an appointment in the mathematical department at Indiana Universityg Howard Nedderman, when he finishes at Purdue, has an appointment for 41-42 in Purdue's mathe- Edna Borg H.

Another one of our shining lights is Hans Hanson who has the distinction of being rated the most skilful tool and dye malcer in this region. This record illustrates that patience and ability of the teachers, together with the keen-mind ed. hard-working students. in an unbeatable combina- tion. The concentration and industry required in mathematics is fully recompensed by the fact that a task has been accomplished successfully. Riley's mathematics department again entered a team in the annual State High School math con- test. held this year at Indiana University, in April. The team is pictured on these pages. A formidable team in past contests. when Riley's contestants have come home with top honors, this vearis team lived up to tradition, although they failed to bring home a championship. In one of the most difiicult of the exams-the comprehensive. Eugene Flannigan finished in 12th place, while Nlyron Eckhart came in 19th. In the Geometry exams, Loyal Wilson's paper was good for llth place while his teammate -lerry Cox was right behind him for 13th place. Preceding the final exams at Bloomington the team competed in the Sectional meet at Notre Dame University where they finished near the top. In the Geometry tests Richard Wfhite. Jerry Cox. and Loyal Wilson finished 3rd, 4:11, and 5th, respectively, well ahead of many contestants who later won high state honors. ,lean Place linished 10th and Elizabeth Gilliom 11th in the Algebra contests at Notre Dame. but their scores in the state iinals were not received when this was printed. . -1 V' . -,I . -.- ' . , ,M-.1 -: : : , V ,f- f 5 P .. ..

The history of i the past efforts of Q man to develop his powers through the struggles he has en- countered, and to improve the civiliza- tion he has built, is a story rich in value to every high school student. No single study opens up such a wealth of treasure H. H. Ogden Dept. Head to the student, as an intelligent pursuit of history. One of the fundamental objectives of secondary education is to develop in the individual those quali- ties which enable him to participate worthily and intelligently in the affairs of the neighborhood, town. city, state, and nationg and help him to live well in his social environment that he will become a con- tributor to that environment by doing efficiently now, the things he will most likely need to do later. The studies found in the social science group con- tribute largely toward the accomplishment of this goal. Recognizing the importance of social studies. the State Department of Public Instruction requires some courses in this department. These include one year of U. S. History offered in the eleventh year, one semester of Civics, and one of the advanced social studies, Sociology, or Economics. This department is headed by Mr. Ogden. assistant principal. The course in Social Studies for the ninth grade taught by Mr. lVlarsh, lVlr. Wakeheld, lVliss Snolce, and Miss Kern has been organized for the purpose of orientating the pupil of this grade level to the kind of society in which he finds himself. The first semester of World History includes a general survey of the development of world civiliza- tion from prehistoric times down to about 1789. Ernest Horn Robert Forbes Russell Rhodes Forrest Marsh Social A world history class reviews the route of an early navigator. Students of current events review the situation in Ethiopia.

History is required of all students Clara Kern Elizabeth Bennet! , and is offered in the llrh year. The first semester includes the history of the U. S. from the beginning through the Mexican War to 1850, and the second completes the study of our history to date. This course is taught by Mr. Forbes, Mr. Horn, Mr. Rhodes, Mr. Marsh, Miss Bennett, and Miss Munro. In the senior year the student is required to talce a semester course in Civics. The student studies the form and functions of our government. He is im- pressed with his responsibility as a junior citizen for the development of better government and with the idea that our government is based upon a living agreement among the people. This course is taught by Mr. Campbell, Mr. Forbes, Mr. Wolfrani, and lVlr.

It is an elective for IZA students. Miss Kern ofiers Commercial Geography. Qne of the most interesting phases of the worl-Q in the Social Studies Department is the Sociology trip talcen each semester by the seniors in the Sociol- ogv classes. The trip is in the nature of a visit to one of the State Institutions where students can ob- serve the methods of the State in treating mental cases. At the institution thev are given the oppor- tunitv to observe certain case studies. and to learn at first hand some of the primary causes of many mental disorders. The students are under the direc- tion of one of the officials while there, who is only too glad to answer questions on important sociol- ogical problems studied in class. Over one hundred students tool: this trip this semester. Wayne Wakefield Harry Koss C. M. Wolfram W.

They present these miracles to their classes in such a way that studying becomes a gameg a treasure hunt with knowledge as the booty. C. C. Schubert Dept. Head In the science laboratories the students discover for themselves some of the amazing structures, be- haviors. and functions of things that revolve around mankind. They acquire an understanding of the laws governing them. and learn about the powerful forces of nature such as heat, light. electricity, gravitation. magnetism, chemical and atomic energies, and how they affect our environment. The first glimpse of science comes in the elemen- tarv course. Biology. It is designed to give the stu- dents a knowledge of life processes. Biology is the study of all living things, and helps one to under- stand the complex environment in which he lives. It treats of the structure, mechanics, and elementary chemistry of living matter. It aims to acquaint the students with the abundance and variety of life about them and to arouse their curiosity so that they may, by their own interests and efforts, enjoy the practical and cultural values to be derived from a better un- derstanding. Next comes Advanced Biology. Here is the op- portunity for more detailed study of the distribution Science of plants and animals, the science of reproduction, heredity, principles of development, behavior, conser- vation, growing of culture, and use of identification keys. Some time is spent in studying the earth as the home of man, and learning how its character has made possible the development of the particular kinds of life found here. Students are given the opportunity to work on projects that are of particular interest to them. The third phase of science comes in the course of Physical Science. This course emphasizes the funda- mental facts of nature and the students' surroundings in such a way that they are made of vital interest to them, and are yet, at the same time, scientifically presented, easily comprehended, and useful both in the future study of science and in everyday life. The content of the course gives the students the kind of information which helps them to understand the reasons for many of the common phenomenon in the world about them. It aims to give them an insight into the world of science and invention and to demonstrate to them the means by which scientific knowledge is acquired and is being applied to im- prove the welfare of the individual. members of so- ciety. It attempts to help free them from superstition and prejudice and to teach them to rely upon estab- lished truth in ordering their own lives. In short, this course aims to explore science in such a way as to influence, in a significant manner, the beliefs, philosophy, and attitudes of the average students. Chemistry, the next course, is the study of the structure, properties, and transformations of matter, and the forces which bring about its changes. Mod- ern chemistry has grown to be one of the most inter- V x Microscopes make the study of Biology an interesting one.

It is now recognized as having an important part in the improvement of living conditions for mankind throughout the civilized world. Such fundamentals as food, clothing, medicine, tools of industry, weapons, means of communication and travel, recreation and entertainment-all have been vastly improved or, in many cases. complerely revolutionized bv the application of the growing knowledge of chemistry. Girls going into the study of nursing or medicine, or planning to teach science or home economics would profit by taking this course. In the present scientific age, the person who does not acquire a lcnowledge of the essentials of Physics will find himself embarrassed and handicapped as he faces his daily problems. Boys intending to study engineering, or medicine should, by all means, take this course. Trade Science aims to acquaint students with the principles of science that may readily be found in the shop, in the field, on the street, or at home. The students experiment with, and learn the laws that apply to real life situations having to do with density, radiation, absorption, refrigeration, evaporation. friction, gravitation, oxidation, electrolysis, and sound transmission. Trade science makes its contribution in preparing pupils for a useful, sane, and healthy life. The study of science has much of value for two types of students--first, for those who will become our future discoverers and inventorsg second, for all the other students who, through its study, will come to appreciate the con- tribution science has made to our civilization and who will better understand their environment and thus be able to malce the necessary adjustments in their daily living. Interest in Science Department has been greatly enhanced in the past few years through the use of visual aid equipment. Many interesting phases of plant and animal life have been filmed in such a manner that they tie directly in with the classroom worlc. The same is true in the field of Chemis- try and Physics where interesting films on certain experiments are available to schools. Mr. Waitrowski, of the Science Department has charge of visual aid equip- ment and under his direction the school has a program second to none. Another interesting phase of the department's worlc is the field trips talcen by the Biology 3 class to Rum Village park. On the tours the class gets actual experience' in classifying trees and flowers. Felix Waitrowski Biology M. O.

Miss Fife, who holds ll Bachelor of Science degree from Iowa State University and a Master of Arts degree from Columbia Univer- sity, has full charge of the cafeteria, as well as teaching assignments in the department. Emma Fife. Miss Eicholtz, the clothing teacher, with a Bache- lor of Science Degree from Purdue, and a Master of Arts Degree from New York University, is a most efficient instructress. Her never tiring efforts are very beneficial and helpful. However important clothing, there is no home that can get along without the art of cooking. For those who have the desire to learn this art, Miss McAlpine gives the assistance and cooperation that is needed to settle all problems. There is no doubt as to her thorough knowledge of the subject, because she has a Bachelor of Science Degree from Mil- waukee Downer College, and she has done graduate work at Wisconsin and Columbia Universities. But that is not allg she is an accredited dietitian. We should look to our Home Economics Depart- ment as a means to aid girls in making better homes, thus contributing more to our worldly needs. The courses offered here at Riley are many. They are offered to the grades as follows: For those in the 8-B, foods classes are offered. This first course of the study enables the students to gain a general knowledge of the proper break- fasts, luncheons, and simple dinners. Home Upon entering the 8-A, these prospective home- makers leave the kitchens for a semester of instruc- tions on needle-handling. They make blouses, and recently have been doing Red Cross work, for which they deserve a great deal of credit. Now come the courses that are not required, but for those who want to better their knowledge of the stove and the sewing machine, they are waiting. Home Economic!-I fF0odl This is a very comprehensive course. Food is dis- cussed nine weeks out of the semester for a more complete idea of what food combinations will make a balanced meal. But, reading and talking about a subject doesn't teach all. To understand the subject, actual preparation and serving of the meals is neces- sary-just what is done. Adding to what was learned in the 8-B, breakfasts, luncheons, and dinners are studied more in detail. A few weeks are devoted to the care and development of childreng and about two weeks are spent in the care and furnishings of a girl's own room. Home Economics-II ffflotfiingl The purpose of this class is to train the girl to be more careful of the clothing she wears, and of her appearance. A cotton dress is made in class. Foods-I All the different kinds of food are studied, the food principles, and the principles of cooking. Dif- ferent kinds of food are prepared as illustrations. Foods-II Serving of meals attractively and economically is especially stressed in this course. The girls study meal and table serviceg menu writingg definitions of different foreign foodsg marketing and cost, and the different types of china, silver, and glassware. The girls are divided into groups and take turns in fv- .. .-fx. - i Girls in Foods 2 Class prepare a noon meal. Students in Clothing I learn to cut from a pattern. Economics preparing the meals, which are served as regular noon meals. In this wav the girls do not have to go home to dinner. but remain at school. Niatrilion This is a study of the efiect of food on the bodv. It teaches the girls to choose food that will give them the correct amount of calories, and the correct amounts and kinds of vitamins, proteins, and min- erals that will keep them at the very best stage of health. Digestion is also studied. Clothing--I A study of clothing, kinds and textures, is taken up during this course. The care of woolen and silk materials, such as pressing and finishing, are espe- cially stressed. Fitting. too, is emphasized in this study. One under-garment and one dress is mad: during this semester. Clothing-Il This is a textile study of the weaves, characteristics of fibers, the main sources of them, and how to finish this material. A silk or wool dress and a finer blouse are made. Fine Sewing This course deals with lingerie. house coats, and pajamas. Girls, here is where that wonderful evening dress is made. Boys, some day you may be the proud husband of one of the girls who majored, or at least had some training, in the Household Arts Department of the Riley school. Then, perhaps, you will agree that this department-with its fine group of teach- ers-knows how to make fine homemakers out of the future wives and mothers. Aside from all of the work that a visitor might see in visiting the Home Economics department. the students and teachers do many interesting things. Miss Fife has full responsibility in planning all ban- , ' 'K' ' 'ir- l Jean McAlpine. Valda Eichholtz. quets held by various organizations in the school cafeteria. In addition to the preparation of the food, Miss McAlpine's Banquet Service Club takes over to see that the proper service is carried out. In the clothing department many interesting things are done. This Spring the girls in Miss Eichholtz' clothing classes staged a style show that will long be remembered. Miss Elizabeth Shaw, a style expert from New York city, came to the school with gowns for various occasions. These gowns were modeled by the girls in the department before all of the girls in the high school in an assembly in the auditorium. The purpose of the program was to give everyone who witnessed the demonstration an idea of suitable colors and design. as well as lines that would fit the individual person. Miss Shaw explained each dress as it was modeled. In the Senior clothing classes the girls are given certain definite projects to work on during the school year. These projects consist of slips, house dresses, school dresses, and even formal dancing gowns. After the projects are finished each girl styles the clothes she has made on a platform in front of 'the class to receive comment and criticisms from her class- mates. These class criticism periods have been some of the most interesting ones spent bv the girls in the department. Individual instruction is common in this department. Attractive garments are made in Fine Sewing Class. There has and al- ways will be a de- mand for skilled labor in industry. Now, more than ever before, the de- sire for more skilled machinists can be seen throughout the country. The people who are planning to enter industry are beginning to realize the importance of education and training and they are striving to take advantage of all the facilities ohfered to them in high school. Joseph Shafer. In the Riley machine shops the students are taught how to use the lathe and the various other tools that industry employs: they are taught how to read drawings and follow directions, they branch out into more than one field, thus they are qualified to enter the various fields of industry. Wooo WORK The wood work department in our school has been made very interesting by its instructor, Mr. Mock. The students work on a project basis, that is to say, they must complete a certain designated amount of work by a certain time if they expect credit for their semester's work. Their projects consist of articles such as bread boards. tables, book ends, hall racks and all sorts of the other fairly simple things made of wood. This course gives them a good fundamental knowl- edge about building, which might prove of some value to them financially or as a useful hobby. This department also teaches them how to stain and varnish or paint their objects, thus giving the pupil a fundamental knowledge in carpentry. Industrial Arts MECHANICAL DRAWING lndustry demands skilled labor but it also demands men that can read blue prints. It is because of the latter situation that mechanical drawing is taught in Mr. Webb's classes. Endeavoring to give the stu- dents the best possible training for the future, Riley has incorporated classes for everyone interested in this work for hobby or vocation. The department has classes for the beginner and all the way up to University Training. These classes do more than just train the student's mind in the helds of industry. It also helps one become accurate, neat, and careful. Mechanical drawing also teaches one other thing which is probably the most important. That is con- centration. It is impossible for one to attempt a diffi- cult project in mechanical drawing if he is thinking of something else. Concentration is an absolute necessity in the make- up of a successful draftsman, or in the doing of al- most any other type of work. Thus we see Riley High School doing its part in preparing its students for a place in industry. Mr. Hoyle has charge of the beginners classes in mechanical drawing. His younger boys learn to mas- ter the tools used by the draftsman, as well as the fundamental principles of design and scales. They spend most of their time on the simpler drawings. MACHINE SHOP The machine shop, under the direction of Mr. Shafer is probably one of the most interesting places in the building. Under his direction the shop has grown, until. with the addition of new machines it is complete in many respects. There are few limits placed on a boy's progress in the machine shop, the chief one being the limited n,. fini lu Studying a plan in the Woodwork Shop. Girls now enroll in Mechanical Drawing. Why not? Learning the operation of a drill press. number of hours he can elect the classes before grad- uation. While all start on simple projects those who take on more difficult ones are allowed to do so by Mr. Shafer. The student's success depends on his interest in the work, his ability to do the job, his willingness to learn, his earlier preparation, and his ability to get along with others. Actual work at the machines in the school shop is supplemented by lectures, assignments, both in text and workbooks, demonstrations, films and inspection trips. A study is made of the different kinds of metals and materials used in the machine trades. Special attention is given to steel and its heat treat- ments. In beginning courses, students build small tools that are used in the school shops. In the ad- vanced courses students may build larger machines such as lathes, shapers, and wood-working machines for the home shop. In order that a boy or a young man may progress from one machine to another in an industry it is essential that the individual have a fundamental training in the trade, such as experience on the en- gine lathe, shaper. drill press, planer, grinder, miller, screw machine, work on the bench, and bench assem- bly. The school machine shops are well equipped to give instruction on all of these machines. In addition to these courses this department offers courses in electricity, elementary tool and dye mak- '.5'4' ,f R. C. Stilson. Jack Hoyle. Turning out table legs on a wood lathe. ing and pattern making. Two semesters of wood- work are a prerequisite of the latter. Mr. Shafer also offers some classes in foundry and forge work. The Industrial Arts Department has planned a new program whereby they can help the United States government further the National Defense program. On October 6 of last year. Mr. Shafer started a class for adults in the machine shop that ran two nights a week until the last week of January of this year. At the same time Mr. Hoyle began special classes in machine shop so that there are now four evenings a week of machine shop work for adults. The chief purpose of these classes is to give these men supplementary training to the work that they are now doing in many of our industries in building up our National Defense. While in these classes the men make many tools that can now be used in the machine shops of the schools throughout the city. On Nlarch 4, Mr. Shafer started special classes for the Senior boys who are going to graduate this June, all of these young men intend to enter in- dustries when school is out. They go to a special class six hours on Friday evening, and in addition another six hours on Saturday under the direction of Mr. Stilson. Early this Spring Nlr. Mock started an adult class in blue print reading. Earl Webb. F. L. Mock. Blanch Stauffer. Hazel Oliphant.

In the treasury of the world there are many departments, but here in our own small Treasury of Knowledge, we Riley students are proud of the way Nliss Van Scoy, Miss Cripe, Miss Steele. Mrs. Myers, Miss Moss, Miss Estrich, and Mr. Goodg Miss Lushbaugh, Miss Mitchell, Miss Zeiters, and Miss Hopkins, head of the department, offer their hearts of gold to give us as much of that representation as possible. Genevieve Hopkins Dept. Head To the person who can communicate his thoughts effectively, colorfully, and interestingly, recognition should be given for the accomplishment of one of the most difficult personal and social tasks of man- kind. He has learned to put verbal language into word music. Every time he engages in a conversation, makes a recitation, gives an oral report of speechg every time he jots down notes, writes a letter or a theme, he is composing. Wliat should he do if he desires to obtain the best results? First of all, he will organize his subject in an orderly, logical manner. Then he will watch his sentence structure that he may thereby give adequate form to the communication of his ideas. l-lis words, too, he will choose with care to make his expression as vital, colorful, individual, as possible. If his com- position is written he will attend to the mechanics of writing such as spelling and punctuation, to the end that his work may be accurateg if it is oral, he will give attention to the qualities of his voice that it may be pleasing to others. The pleasures in literature are many. First of all the mere knowledge that one comprehends the author's thought, whether it be in simple or difficult form, prose or poetry, is a satisfaction. But the real joy comes in the appreciation of the thoughts of the writer, the hne phrasing, the subtleties of style. It is a pleasure to the student to see his standard of read- ing rise as his taste in literature improves. This situa- tion is highly desirable for, with the growing demand English 3? An interesting class this semester was the one in Creative Expression taught by Miss Hopkins. Above is a scene in it. Those in the Junior High School take delight in studying American Literature, Below, they are shown reading a play. Lura VanScoy Mrs. Mary Myers Florence Cripe Grace Lushbaugh Department rm- English IV students review sentence structure by the time honored method of parsing. Scene in Mr. Good's class. Students in Shakespeare often dramatize many parts of his famous plays. These students are studying a portion of Macbeth , for books in greater leisure, the indivdual and the social group will be benefited by coming in contact with the thoughts and feelings of great writers of the past and the present. Of course, a student cannot talce any course in English that he chooses. He has to take the funda- mental and required courses to understand and get the full benefit of his elected courses. Under the required courses come English I, II, III, IV, V, and VI. English I covers composition and literatureg Eng- lish II, the simple sentence and words in their cor- rect usage. In this semester Ivanhoe,' is read and studied to the fullest extent. In English III grammar and composition are studied during the first part of the semester, and Silas lVIarner is read in a period of two or three weelcs. American Poetry is found to be very interesting too. In English IV the verb and verhals, the compound and the complex sentence are reviewed. Literature includes Short Stories , HA Tale of Two Cities , and As You Lilce It . Speech work is stressed. English V falls into two lines of study: rhetoric and literature. In literature such boolcs are studied as The House of Seven Gables , Idylls of the King , Goldstone's One-Act Plays , and Modern Literature . English VI combines prac- tical and cultural values. lVlacheth is read and studied for reactions to expressions. For those who care to carry on with grammar, literature, and composition, there are seven additional courses offered. This semester English Literature and Creative Expression are given. The value of the training a student receives in the English Department, supplemented by that taken in the Speech, is particularly noticeable when they are called upon to present facts or views before an audience. This year the caliber of contestants in the Junior I-Iigh School Debating Contests was unusually high. Many of them had received no training yet under the Speech teachers, their only lessons in expression being a part of their regular classes in the English Department. Every student should appreciate and understand the full significance of good speech. It is with us wherever we go, it is our cultural label. By our speech we are judged, and we should develop it to the fullest extent. -fUh ,L- Marcella Mitchell Opal Zeiters 317 I Cortland Good Hildred MOSS J - . --1 V 1'f - ' 1 - 1, .1 I 'An g pig -.M V A I CVR .

Conse- quently since so much emphasis has been placed on speech work of various sorts in the immediate past. we are going to tell you about the English IV course, which has a speech unit in addition to composition and literature points, and also about the Speech Re-Education course, which is obviously concerned with speech work. These two divisions of the English and Speech Department may be considered symbolic of the entire English program at Riley in that English IV is a required course and Speech Re-Education an elective one. Miss Steele has taught the Speech Re-Education course, and both Miss Steele and Miss Estrich have taught English IV. The above-mentioned English course as taught here has for its purpose the following points. all of which are necessary for good speech. Q11 Develop- ment of a desire to use speech effectively. 121 De- velopment of beautiful and expressive English. 131 Development of and expressive, precise vocabu- lary. Q41 Development of an appreciation for words. 151 Development of good thinking, social poise, and improved voice. Q61 Revealment of the significance and richness of the English language through a study of the classics. Edith Steele Speech It is in this class that most students first come into frequent contact with the art of public speaking. To be able to express one's self clearly and fluently should be one of a person's most desirable ambitionsg and it is toward that end that this class is primarily directed. Speech consists of a combination of movements of the diaphragm, chest, vocal chords, laryna, tongue, jaws and lips. If any one of this combination refuses to function properly, it causes a defect in your speech. To teach clear, unaffected diction and smooth voice production without these various accents and peculiarities is the main function of any Speech Re-Education class. This program shows many benefits, for authorities have stated that the ability to express one's self in an interesting manner increases greatly his chances of success. because it breeds confidence and security within himself. Consequently. a person,s personality is partially dependent upon his speech because of the mental attitude he has formed within himself. Moreover if speech defects are erased before the person's personality is hurt, he would be greatly benefitted all through life. lt is the student's mental attitude toward his de- fects that is the primary cure for his conditiong and it is this correct mental attitude, together with con- stant practice to dissolve the defect, that Miss Steele is creating in her Speech Re-Education classes. Much has been done to solve this problem of poor speech since 1938, when the class was first organized at Riley. However, much remains to be done, but only through the voluntary action of those of you who have a defect. There is plenty of action in Miss Steele's Speech classes when An interesting phase of work in Speech is the recording of they decide to act out one of the many plays they study. voices on records. They are later studied for defects. This season's Var- sity Debate Team was one of the most successful Riley has ever had. The sea- son started with the beginning of school last September. 1940 and continued right through to April, 1941. First on the list of activities was a trip to Purdue for participating in a model legisla- tive assembly on December 6 and 7. Fourteen pupils made the trip, but only six participated actively. Much information was presented at this assembly concerning the state debate topic which was Re- solved: That the Power of the Federal Government Should Be Increased. Russell Rhodes Debate Coach Following this interesting trip, a group of sixteen debaters traveled to Elkhart's Fifth Invitational Tournament on January 18, 1941. It was here that Riley first gave evidence of the fine team she pos- sessed. Out of 300 debaters and coaches from 26 schools in four states, Riley captured first place. Team No. 1 of Riley marked up six victories and no defeatsg and team No. 2 recorded five victories and one defeat. By now the team constituents were definitely fixed. The Varsity affirmative team consisted of Glennadine Lane, first speaker, and Delos Lonzo, second speaker. The negative team was composed of Robert Goyer, first speaker, and Robert Reed, second speaker. The county teams, or second Varsity teams, consisted of jean Lambert and Hugh Farrington, affirmative, and James Rodibaugh. and Al Leviton, negative. Debate Two weeks later, the first Varsity team traveled to Laporte for another tournament, where the affirma- tive team conceded both their debates while the nega- tive won their two. The following week, the first Varsity again took to the road, this time to Goshen for two practice de- bates. It was here that the negative suffered their first defeat of the season, while the afiirmative with Jean Lambert substituting for Glennadine Lane, won the contest. Finally, on February 5, 1941, the Indiana State Debate Conference for this district was held here at Riley. After the contesting teams had debated each other and the smoke had cleared away, Laporte was on the top with Riley tied for second with Cen- tral and Mishawaka. However, the season was not yet over, as the county tournament was still in progress. Not until March 21 were the victors announced, but with the announcement came happy tidings for the forth- coming year-Riley had tied Central for top honors. The affirmative team had won two and lost two de- bates, while the negative went undefeated, winning all four. With this, the season ended, but not until Riley had participated in 33 debates, winning 23 and losing only 10. This is a splendid average for this con- ference, and great credit should go to Mr. Rhodes, coach of debate at Riley, and to the Varsity debaters who compiled this encouraging average. With the rising popularity of debate, Rilev plans to be a leader in the debating field. Consequentlv, Mr. Rhodes sincerely hopes that all students inter- ested in debate contact him soon. ir!

Though we tram'- el the world over to find the beautiful, we must have it with its or we jimi it not. -RALPH WALDO EMERSON. That is precisely what Miss Sander- son and Nlr. West have proven to the many students who have studied under their direction because they really wanted to find the beautiful in the finer things of life. The courses of- fered in the Art Department are designed to meet the needs of all the students. They aim particularly to help students to an appreciation of many of these finer things in lifeg to open their eyes to the great treasure house of the world of art, and to help them to apply their knowledge of art in their dress. their homes, and their community. They learn the principles of color harmony, design, and drawing, with application to problems in lettering, poster work, and applied designing, and those two vital subjects that have already been mentioned rather vaguely, costume designing and interior decorating. Wilbur West In Art I Miss Sanderson sees that her students study the problems of space breaking including rhythm and consideration of value in black and white followed by exercises in color. They study figure drawing and learn how to use the brush in the actual creation of figures. Lettering with pen and brush is another important phase of this course of studyg and when done right it is beautiful work, well worth being proud of. Now the chance for original design is given when the linoleum is brought forth. The blocked linoleum is used to make an original Christ- mas Greeting. Each student, at one time or another during the course, makes a plan for a table decora- tion. Still Life is studied also, a subject that is fasci- nating beyond expression. Surface pattern design comes along the line, and that is done on wrapping paper. The same capable teacher that instructs those mem- bers of the Art I classes teaches the Art II classes. In this course, as in the first one, space breaking is studied, but the subject covers lines. From the prob- lem of space breaking pen and ink studies are de- rived. At first, only black and white are used, later colored ink. Each student is required to hand in a space breaking problem in color, from which is de- rived the bookjacket and poster designs. This year the group participated in making a poster for Traffic Safety. A painting that always stands out is one of flowers. This is another requirement-know how to do flowers decoratively. Last, but not least, in these two courses is Still Life again that is done in pencil, charcoal, crayons, and water colors. Mr. West takes over from here and continues the work that Miss Sanderson has very ably begun and Art developed. I-le takes the students, as they grow more appreciative of art as a whole, and goes deeper into the background and finer details of this colorful subject. There are quite a few courses, and this next, more fascinating than the first two, is Interior Deco- rating. It happens to be divided into two courses. It aims to help the pupils apply the principles of art to house and garden planning and to the furnishing and decoration of rooms. Well-planned homes and gardens are studied as a basis for original designs made by the pupils. Experience is also given in ap- plying the principles of color and design in working out the color scheme of a room, selecting the wall Ss. The Arts and Crafts classes make many worthwhile things. Porcelain objects, when finished, are baked in an electric kiln. Department and fioor coverings, furniture, and draperiesg and so on into the beauty of homes. Following that comes the class in Costume Design- ing, another two semester course. This course includes a brief study of the history of the costume through the various period styles. The pupils are given prac- tice in figure drawing and in the designing of cos- tumes. A study is also made of color harmony and what constitutes good taste in dress. Some students have a natural gift for art. For those who do have this blessing, and have found the other courses interesting, Mr. West offers Com- mercial Art. Here is introduced to the students the fe- , Kari-,ww gen. , .. af. 01 X. gf , ,,.w ,- ze, B-iL4r-Visas BENDIX 1 George Connell with one of his prize winning posters.

Experience is given in the use of various mediums such as paint, ink, and pen- cil. Students will Find that this course affords a good foundation for those desiring to specialize in this field. Flora Sanderson Next comes Arts and Crafts. It includes the study of the principles of design and their application to the following crafts: leather work, lamp shades, block print, batik dyeing, border designs, and all-over pat- ferns. For those students who do not have the time nor the artistic ability there is the course in Art Appre- ciation. This course aims to develop appreciation and the discriminating power to judge art quality as it is expressed in contemporary everyday life, in painting, sculpture, graphic arts. architecture, printing, and advertising art, art in industry and the theater. Art history as related to the present development is also included. This year the department has won many laurelsg it received first prize and honorable mention in the Scholastic Magazineg and art contests were conducted for art students in Riley. Part of the mural which is to decorate our Cafeteria wall has been put up and the students are hard at work on another section. The Scholastic Magazine District Contest held this Spring at the Robertson Brothers Store, brought first prize to Mary Lou Kuhn with a water color entry. Mary Lou, who is Art Editor of this book, received a one year scholarship to the Layton Art School at Milwaukee, Wisconsin. At the same contest. John Czencz, who also con- tributed many of the drawings in this book, won a one year scholarship to the Fort Wayne Art School in Fort Wayne, Indiana. George Connell, classmate of John and Mary Lou, entered his poster drawing in the State-Wide Tuber- culosis Contest early in April. In winning first prize in this state affair, George received a year's scholar- ship to the .lohn Herron Art School at Indianapolis. A number of students entered drawing in the Annual Notre Dame Art Exhibit.

The soft, deep, rhythmical flow of the Romance Lan- guages, - Latin, French, and Spanish, and, of the staccato German tongue, ap- peals to most people if properly spoken. The history and the A correct forms of speaking and writing these four languages are taught to the students of Riley I-Iigh School by the extremely well qualified and friendly trio of teachers, Miss Noble, Miss Steinhouser, and Miss Kiel, who, in all have fifteen classes, each of the three having five divisions. Bertha Kiel Foreign languages develop your taste and acquaint you with the best of Foreign culture. A knowledge of a language, or, of languages other than your own, is almost essential, to associate with cultured people intelligently. Books often contain alien phrases which if deciphered would add to the enjoyment of the sentence or paragraph. Many of our foods have odd names, which, when translated, suitably apply to the dish. The benefits gained by the time and energy spent on foreign languages are both disciplinary and cul- tural, both being of equal importance. If a person delves into the history of a language he or she will find it most interesting and fascinating. This may surprise some who have never thought of it in that light. Many, however, have experienced this unexpected pleasure. The various classes taught by these teachers are as follows: Miss Steinhouser, Spanish Ill, German Language Ill, and Latin III, Miss Kiel, French H, French TV, French VT, and Spanish Ig Miss Noble, Latin I, Latin ll, and Latin VIH. On Friday, April 18th the French Club, boasting Miss Kiel as its sponsor, journeyed to Chicago for a day of interesting observations which included a sojourn to the Art Museum where they viewed French Art. This club has 38 members who cheerfully help with the various activities of the organization. With Miss Noble as its head the Latin Club, con- sisting of eighty-six members, has worked diligently in making and carrying out numerous plans. This club visited Chicago on Saturday, May the third. They toured the Rosenwald Museum of Science and Industry among other places of interest. The Spanish Club with Miss Steinhouser as its sponsor also took a trip to Chicago, on Saturday, May the Third. While there they visited the Mexican quarter and some Spanish students at the Univer- sity of Chicago, including other places of benefit to them. This club contains twenty-eight very active members who are always ready to help with the many activities of the group.

The I-Ii-Times From the actual teaching of the Eve W's of journalismn to the promotion of a school endeavor, The Hi-Timesf' under the supervision of Miss Bess Wyrick and edited by Phil C. Fry, displays to this school and to the southeast patrons that a good high school press is invaluable. As a member of the National Scholastic Press Association and the Quill and Scroll Journalism Society, The l-li-Times has entered into many critical surveys which have brought similar comments to this one made by the Quill and Scroll, International First Place for 1940 is awarded 'The l-li-Times' because of the fine ma- terial throughout the entire publication.

Altogether the staff and student body can be proud of their news organizationf' Not only does The l-li-Times serve to publicize the school's numerous activities, but it is the organ through which journalism is taught at Riley. Since this school has no course in journalism, Miss Wyrick in the Cub Reporter's Club spends most of the time in the actual teaching of the basic fundamentals of journalism, thus recruiting for the stall: the younger members of Riley's student body. The seniors and juniors on the stall meet each Tuesday with the various editors to discuss problems involving the newspaper. They comprise what is called the l-li-Times Editorial Board which has visions for the future leadership of the paper. Last fall, The I-li-Times sent four staff mem- bers to represent the paper at the annual convention of the National Scholastic Press Association held at Hotel Cleveland, Cleveland, Ohio. During the three-day convention, Phil Fry, Editor-in-chief, Fran- ces jambrich, Feature Editor, Dorothy Resner, Busi- ness Manager, and Peggy Millbern, representing the sports stalf, exchanged ideas of improving high school newspapers with high school students from the nation over and with many outstandingjournalism author- ities. As yet the people to fill the various vacancies left by graduating seniors have not been chosen, except in the case of Editor-in-chief which will be hlled by Robert Beyer, present Associate Editor.

In the second semester, they sang their second of the Riley Concert Series, the Mishawalca Women's Gllee Club Club concert, and their annual spring Guest Concert, at which Billie jean Conrad and Bob Smith made Final appearances, and the Spring Baccalaureate Services. The Glee Club strives to stimulate an interest in music, to give students, through participation, dis- criminating tastes in the best of music and to give an understanding of the correct use of ensemble work. In order to do all these things, Miss Kantzer needs a well balanced selection of music. All of the best and different types of music, such as folk songs, early church and religious music, worlcs of Bach, Mozart, Tschaikowsky, and many others are offered.

It has deh- nitely proven its posi- tion as a fine musical organization through hard work and cease- less efforts. T h e i r repertoire, today, is of the high- est type of classical selections. Some of the outstanding compositions played before the public are the Fifth Symphony by Beethoven, Peer Gynt Suiteu by Grieg, Walter,s Prize Songn from the Mastersingers of Nuremburgv by Wagner, and Mozart's Magic Flutef, P. H. Riggs Among the other compositions introduced for the first time this year are: pomp and Circumstancev by Elgar. Brahm's Hungarian Dance VLH the well- Orchestra lcnown Pavanne,' by Gould, and two lighter num- bers-Jarnefelfs Praeludium , and Procession of the Sardarn by Ippolitow-Iwanow. The orchestra also has several compositions which they play for their own personal development and love for music. Weber's Invitation To The Dance and Ponchielli's Dance of the Hours are the two most recent selections for this purpose. For the first time in the orchestra's history, a stu- dent director was selected. The honor of assisting Mr. Riggs was given to Ruth Borough by the orches- tra members, and to June Malley went the honor and position of Concert Mistress. The aim of Mr. Riggs in forming and maintain- ing this organization is to develop in talented stu- dents, ability and an understanding of music. The sole purpose is to promote a love for music-to bring personal pleasure and satisfaction in playing and listening to music.

I ppolitonf-I nfanow Band The marching band, numbering 125, carrying the name of Riley,, over this part of the country, de- serves applause and cheer. They have introduced two new military marches this year: Purple Pageantn by King, and Rainbow Division by Nirella. With these new marches, they gained high honors in the Blossom Parade at Benton Harbor this year. The concert band, number 75, has also gained ac- claim through many of their classical concerts. This year, they gave both the spring and fall concerts at Riley. In their fall concert, they played such out- standing numbers as Polonaise from the opera Christmas Nighrn by Rimslcy-Korsakoll, the well- known Poet and Peasantn Overture, by Von Suppe, and the Martha', Overture, by Flotow. In their spring concert, they introduced the H1812 Overturen by Tschailcowslcy, and Song of the Bayou by Rube Bloom. The band now has the en- tire Sixth Symphony by Tschailcowslcy, in their repertoire, and at this concert, played the Andante from the hrst movement, and the March from the second movement. There are several numbers that the band has been working on for their own personal education, which they do not intend to play for the general public. They work on such compositions as Les Preludesn by Liszt, and the finale from A Life of the Czarl' by Glinlca, for the purpose of developing technical skill as well as tone quality and the general art of playing their own instruments. As is the custom, developed by Mr. Riggs. the band elects their own student director. This year, there were six candidates, and through competition, they finally elected William Metsker to the position. Program P. H.

I The Ari of ' lleallhful I I Pl ' '9' I Physical Education ' ' Heamu Coach Harry Koss began his first sea- son at the helm of Riley's football club l ' , under trying circum- l 3' 15' Q stances. He worked l his squad long and l L X hard during the pre- i H.. 'J ' ceding spring prac- I -, Hi tice to get the most - - out of a team that Harry Koss possessed few fegll' Varsity Coach lars and a line that had been riddled by graduation. Along with his new assistant coach, Charles Haf- ron, he was ready to take up in August where spring practice ended, and prospects looked bright for a good season. Bur practice was terminated almost as soon as it begun by the dreaded infantile paralysis epidemic, and before it was resumed all the prelimi- nary games had been cancelled. With the cooperation of other schools the sched- ule was revised to include seven games, but the team was forced to meet a traditional rival, Elkhart, with less than a week of practice. The team improved with games, conquering Washington and winning three out of seven, for a record that was highly satis- factory, considering the handicaps at the start of the season. Mr. Koss succeeded Mr. Wood as head coach, being his assistant for three years. Mr. Hafron, a former assistant coach of Riley returned after a so- journ at Oliver where he was head coach and gym instructor. The season: Elkhart 20, Riley 13 This initial game of 1940 series was a heartbreaker. Football The team was not conditioned because of the epi- demic, but the Wildcats lived up to their name. The game was a hard fought battle, but the Blazers final- ly found their way through an untrained forward line. Hardy, of Elkhart, was the star of the eveningg but Riley's Nemeth, Vodick, Kish, and Meilke threatened often and made Elkhart fight to win. Michigan City 6, Riley 25 The Wildcats drove their way over a muddy field to bring Riley an astonishing victory, Z5-6. The arm of Steve Nemeth played the major role in a spectacu- lar tilt. The longest pass was 37 yards, another 35, and still another 30 yards. Ken Weirdine was the Devils great boy as far as the offensive work went. Riley 20, Bosse 0 Due to a 62 yard run by Vodick in the third quarter, Riley was able to make the initial tally of the game. Halfback Steve Nemeth later threw a des- perate rifle pass to Newman who completed it for 17 yards, placing the ball upon Bosse's 11 yard line. Vodick then broke loose with a touchdown. Riley chalked up its final tally in the fourth quarter of the game with Meilke going over standing up. Riley 13, Washington 7 This game was a battle of brains and brawn. Nemeth was again the hero for the Wildcats and had fine blocking from Meilke, Kish and Vodick. The ends Husvar and Barrett, played an important part in both touchdowns. Barrett scored the hrst tally in the second quarter, after a 30 yard pass to Husvar. To top it off, Nemeth made the second and last score in the fourth quarter. .

Rusk, of Central was an important factor in the battle. Central reached Riley,s one yard line in 11 plays, and on the 12th Rusk smashed over center for Central's lone touchdown. Then, in the closing minutes of the first quarter Nemeth threw one of his well-known long passes to Newman, who galloped over the goal line but the conversion was wide. Mishawaka 20, Riley 7 1-lere was a most exciting game to watch. Xvhen Mishawakals fast backs started to run, the Wildcats were defeated then and there. The Maroons scored twice in the first 15 minutes of play. The team found itself in the third quarter and worked together beautifully for their lone score. North Side Fort Wayne 46, Riley 6 When Riley left it had hopes of being the first to set the Redskins back on their heels, but ran into a powerhouse in Mr. Cowan and company from the North Side School. The team tried everything in the books, but were outclassed by the potential State Champions. In the third quarter Nemeth sent a pass to Manula for Riley's only touchdown. This season had hardly ended before Coaches Koss and 1-lafron were making plans for the coming 1941 season. A number of good boys are on hand to form a nucleus for this year's squad, but much work will have to be done. A great many things were accom- plished during Spring practice. Several backfield combinations were tried out, and the line candidates were given a thorough workout. Several promising candidates were discovered from last year's B team. The practice gave Mr. Koss an idea of his material for next fall, enab- ling him to lay plans for his offense. Next year's sched- -,JN ule is an ambitious -l, ., one. calling for nine ' V 7 games without a one 1 to be considered a 1 breather. North Side of Fort Way'ne. a new member of the Northern lndiana Conference, and a worthy one at that. opens the home schedule. From then on the Wlildcats will be up against seven conference foes.

The team ,Q . ., - pak W-'39 played well in most A 2 of its contests, and at times appeared to . possess the making of a great cluh. Los- ing streaks came with no warning, and anything Coach 1V1cCarnes tried, to get back on the winning trail. was of no avail. Toward the close of season there was much improvement and the squad turned in a great victory over Logansport. The Season: Riley 25-Lakeville 20. This was the initial contest of the season and a happy one for the inexperienced Wildcats. Robert McCarnes Varsity Coach Riley 28-Madison 37. The first defeat came from the Panthers, hut the team looked good in losing. Berehitsky showed up well. Riley 36--Nappanee 28.

Indianapolis TENNIS 1940 should have been a good year, hut the infantile paralysis epidemic interfered. It was impossible to play any of the regularly scheduled matches, so the Conference committee de- cided upon a one-day tournament to he held at Elkhart. With no regular practice, a make- shift team composed of two regulars, Gardner and Jessup, and three new members, Pomeranz, Hopewell, and Collins, did their best, but were eliminated early. 1939-1940 GOLF CONFERENCE CHAMPIONS Rilvr' Hill-3' Lliporta .,,,, .. 1 11 MiQh:lwll1t:l il ll Mishawaka . 3 1' ' V.ll1l:lr:li-lr ,1 lg 1, Culver ,,,, ,. 111: ' 1.

Since the advent of Superintendent Allen the city department of physical education and athletics has grown and developed to a new high. Classes in the grade schools and junior high schools are doing work at the former high school level. This made necessary reorganization and improvement in the work offered in the senior high schools. After several years of testing and experimentation, our present plan went into operation at the beginning of this school year. It calls for intensive work in a series of activities offered as elective courses. The student when he signs up for gym selects his two favorite activities for his two days work in physical education classes. In ensuing semesters he will rotate rather than repeat activities. Twelfth graders are offered first choice and then in order eleventh, tenth and ninth. During the first semester courses were offered in-apparatus, major sports, minor sports, games and tumbling. For the second semester the program called for apparatus, minor games, minor sports, major games and pyramid building. ln the apparatus courses work was given on the parallel bars, horse, elephant and horizontal bar. Physical In major sports there was instruction on football and basketbaff. Minor sports courses offered nine weeks of table tennis and nine weeks of badminton. Major games classes played volley ball for nine weeks. Minor games classes had games of low organi- zation-a new game daily. Tumbling classes were for a full semester as were the classes in pyramid building. Next year in addition to the work offered this year we hope to add-boxing and wrestling and perhaps fencing. Also new this year was the intramural work in bowling. The manager of one of the focal alleys offered a special price for bowling at certain prac- tice hours. On Tuesday from 4 p. m. to 6 p. m. 16 teams of 64 boys bowled weekly for 8 weeks. On Saturday 12 teams of 48 boys bowled for the same period. After the team round robin was finished we held tourneys in singles and doubles for the mem- bers of the organized leagues. Next year we hope to increase this bowling program into a two semester double round robin. In an effort to put physical education on a more even par with other subjects, the girls, physical edu- cation classes in the senior high 'have undergone a drastic change in the last year. The eighth grade classes are being conducted along the usual lines with a wide variety of activities offered in order to give the girls an idea of all the various fields of activity possible in physical education. Be- ginning with the ninth grade an elective course has been set up. Each semester offers different activities on different days. First semester, corrections, volley- ball, folk dancing, ping pong, and minor games are offered. Second semester tumbling, basketball, soft- ball, badminton, tap dancing, and minor games are offered. Girls are urged not to repeat courses until The battle is on: boys' gym hockey. Lively action in girls' basketball. Education they have taken a semester of each activity. In this way instruction can be concentrated and in most cases the girls finish with a more thorough knowledge and a deeper appreciation of the specific activity in which they have participated. GIRLS' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The Riley Girls' Athletic Association is affiliated with rhe Indiana State Girls' Athletic Association and has as its purpose the stimulation of interest in girls, athletics and the promotion of good sportsman- ship and friendliness among the members of the as- sociation. Any senior high school girl is eligible for a membership. Each year the club sponsors one major activity, but this year under the able guidance of Beverly Cormi- can, the president, it has sponsored a bake sale at the Public Market to help produce the Gym Exhi- bition, sponsored the Play Day for high schools all over the state, and furnished all officials and time- keepers for the South Bend Elementary School Play Day. The club, this year, has been fortunate in having a large number of capable seniors. These girls, after having served six semesters of active service in the G. A. A., are entitled to wear the Associations pin. Some of these girls have also received the State G. A. A. Plaques, the highest award given by the state association. NAMES OF GIRLS WI-Io RECEIVED EITHER PLAQUES oiz PINS Girls Receiving Pins or Plaques: Elaine Barkley, Francis Brown, Viola Farkas, Barbara Quarles, Anna Lue Reed, Harriet Seaman, Louise Vitale, jerry Wal- ters, June Waterman, Irene Woltman, Dorothy Cys- son, Martha Bole, Geraldine Franklin, Louise Reynolds, Mildred McFadden, Jean Newman, Dor- othy Metzger, Helen Smith, Beverly Cormican. The Physical Education Department at Rilev ranks at the top compared with any in the state. A few years ago this department, by following out some plans formulated under Mr. Bullock. installed a modern laundry. Every student taking gym classes now receives a complete suit, freshly laundered. After classes a clean towel is furnished for the shower. -------. -.. Winners of Senior Pins in the Girls' Athletic Association. Shoes are also furnished. Under the plan which was worked out in every detail, this service is furnished for a small fee each semester. To our knowledge, Riley was the first school in the state to install this laundry system, the plan of which has now been cop- ied by many On May annual gym packed the other schools in the middle west. 9th the Department staged its ninth exhibition.

Health Our health, one of our most priceless possessions, is constantly under the capable, watchful eye of our school nurse-Miss Ruth Gates. The nurse's office carries on a multitude of duties, most of which are little known of or appreciated by the student body. The one large function of the nurse's ofiice is to see that only well people stay in school and that students who are ill are sent home to receive proper care until they are completely well. Besides this daily routine work, the nurse checks all people before they are admitted to any class after absences from school because of illness. conducts home calls with some teachers, aids Dr. Frith in making some examinations, and supervises the hear- ing and Mantoux testing programs. All seniors were given the Mantoux test last April. Ninth graders were given the same test last Novem' ber. Besides these two classes, all boys who partici' pate in sports and who had not been tested within a year's period were required to take the test either in the Spring or in the Fall. The hearing tests, conducted last Winter, required a considerable amount of time. Miss Gates estimated that 42 hours were spent in checking results of this test, notifying those who had defective hearing, and making arrangements for further treatment. During both of the semesters of last year eight girls assisted in the nurse's office-Ellen jane Bow- man, Betty Gobdel, Harriet Seaman, and jean Seitz the Hrst semesterg Colleen Bailey, Doris Boigegrain. Hermina Farkas, and Winona Vorhees the second semester. Miss Gates particularly commends these girls and stressed the importance of their work by saying that We couldn't run the place without them. Charles Hafron Miss Gates Miss Gates is a Graduate Nurse from Indiana University. She has a B.S. degree from Ball State Teachers College and at present is working on a Masters Degree in Public Health from the Uni- versity of Michigan. The work for this latter degree will culminate next June 14. On March 27, Miss Cooney, an assistant to Miss Gates, left Riley to go to Herman Keifer Hospital in Detroit for additional training. Miss Cooney was graduated from St. Joseph Hospital in South Bend. All the classes in Health Education are taught this semester by Mr. Hafron. a graduate of Notre Dame University. All students, regardless of the course taken. are now required to elect two semesters of Health, a course designed to emphasize habits of personal hygiene as well as group health problems. While classes in Health were unheard of a half- century ago, there is probably no course that con- tributes more to the training of good citizenship in a democracy. For these classes strives to show the young citizenry of today the need for a strong and healthy citizenry of tomorrow. To every member of this vital department, we give our thanks and our gratitude, especially do we give to Miss Cooney and to Miss Gates our best wishes for good luck in their work at the University of Michigan.
