Nappanee High School - Napanet Yearbook (Nappanee, IN)

Text from Pages 1 - 112 of the 1942 volume:

IN NAPPANEE HIGH SCHOOL — NAPPANEE, INDIANA M£ wmJi Among the many activities of NHS one of the outstanding is music. In this, the 17th volume of the Napanet, we have endeavored to carry out the theme of music. In later years as you look through the pages of this book may you remember all the fun and laughter of those care free days at school. IMD A A HA PPAHEH HIGH RUBY HOLLOWAY Editor ROBERT GEYER Bus. Mgr. edicaiitm It has taken much time and patience to make the chorus and band what they are now. All the credit goes to our two music instructors, Mr. Busche and Miss Lantz; and to them, we dedicate the 1 942 Napanet. May they continue their music careers in Nappanee High School for many years to come. THE SCHOOL Faculty . . . Seniors . . . . Who ' s Who . . Prophecy . . . Will . . . Classes. . .

Baer and Emma M. Holland as teachers. A record of 1904 lists S. W. Baer, Otto Bayse and E. M. Hoover as instructors. The high school started in September, 1894, with ten graduates in the first class of May, 1 898. Some of these ten are still living in Nap- panee. From 1898 to and including 1923, there were 438 graduates. Dur- ing the past nineteen years, including 1942, there have been 1050 graduates. The Class of 1937, consisting of 68 graduates is the largest class ever to graduate. The Class of 1901 with 3 graduates is the smallest. J. A. Abell JUe tf-OCMMM Embarking forth into this complicated world, we, the Class of 1942, realize we have a hard road before us. But as we travel onward we will carry with us the knowledge we have gained these last four years. We shall always remember the teachers who have worked so hard to give us this knowledge and experience which will help us to make a place in the world for our- selves. In the future our nation will need lead- ers, more so than ever before. Up to now we have had helpful guidance, but soon we shall have to make more of our own deci- sions. You, the faculty of Nappanee High S chool, have done your utmost to make us useful citizens, now it is up to us to prove our worth and make this world a better place in which to live. . A.

Our destination was Graduation. At first the high school building, the teachers, and the upperclassmen, all confused us but after the first lap of our journey we were well- established on our way. A few times we wandered off our route for a class party. Everyone had a swell time at the skating parties, hay ride, and other parties. The last lap of our journey was the most import- ant and we knew we would need a good leader. Max Gwin was the student ' s choice with Walter Reed as his assistant. Vivian Postma continued taking care of our finances. Mr. Abell and Mr. Roose served as our guides. At last, after four years, we have reached our destination! May we in the future, on the journey of life, be as successful as we have been on our journey through school. ELSIE BOUGHER (Speed) Slap Happy Lassie. PAUL CLOUSE (Moon) Oh Yon Crazy Moon!

We began to climb that grand old scale, We were certain of our success and fame As we started out so hearty and hale. By our ability, we established our name. Sophomores we became, and sang of joy, We celebrated with a party on skates; In learning we ' d advanced, and each girl and boy Looked forward to becoming graduates. At last it came, the yearly reception! We worked so hard for that moment great, This gala affair of enjoyable fun To dignified seniors all juniors dedicate. With you we leave this thought, Our career with you is gone, But though the song is ended The melody lingers on. — Theda Tyndall Amidst the chords and discords of the orchestra inside, I shall tell you about the people entering this great magnificent theatre. For this is Hollywood premiere taking place in Nappanee, Indiana, at the Fairy Theatre which covers a whole block. What eighteen years can do to a place! ! The very first to arrive are JOSEPHINE MULLETT and KIRBY ALEXANDER, the stars of the picture. It ' s entitled The Villain Still Pursues Him. (After all these years!) Following right be- hind comes EILEEN MADLEM. Having just received her twelfth divorce Eileen is appearing with her latest prospect, RAYMOND KERN. Speaking of Skip— THEDA TYNDALL now owns a large chain of garages stationed on lonely country roads and in graveyards throughout the nation to aid these young couples when their cars stall. Her most noted mechanic is WILBUR GAUT, who, I ' ve heard, has had a great deal of experience in getting out of ditches. A crowd is already beginning to gather to watch these notables entering the theatre. Among this early crowd is ANNA MAE REED with her arms loaded with groceries and seven little children gath- ered around her. I never would have recognized her! ! ! WILLIS ROOSE and JIM MARTIN are just arriving in a long, flashy limousine. I guess they are living in Bremen now. I could see that was coming back in the high school days. Willie will soon be a famous man when he takes over Walter Winchell ' s key-hole peeping. After all, Willie can talk faster and spread more gossip than Winchell ever dared! ! Well, look who ' s rolling across the street! ! It ' s SHANTY GEYER! ! ! I hear he is trying to beat Lou Costello as a funny man but he hasn ' t found a partner yet. He has his eye on WALTER REED, but Fish has a very fine job as stand-in for Clark Gable when a close-up of ears is required. NORMA SECHRIST, that famed aviatrix and driver of Stude- bakers, has finally come back to her old home town. I guess she has a terrible time keeping up with her husband. There is a group of tonight ' s entertainers heading toward the stage entrance. There is LISLE ROOSE, JEANETTE SLABAUGH, JULIA GEORGE, and FRANCIS WELDY. They have advanced so far dur- ing these past years! Being Elkhart County ' s favorite quartet is quite an accomplishment! ! ! ! I always felt there was a certain attraction between Jeanette and Francie. But Nub and Julie ! ! ! 1 thought surely Nub was destined to be a great surgeon and Julie to be MRS. ATLEY MILLER. Still - - - one never knows, does one? ? ! I hear Atley is squiring that little, bashful, demure, sweet-tempered Reading the paper So tneu told her old man Its onlu a fake front dost like dapan« BETTY MILLER to and from church every Sunday night. Can you imagine that! ! ! Along with these four, is MARY ANN FOX, who has agreed to step out of George White ' s Scandals and appear in her home town to- night. And I thought she wanted to be a secretary. Looking out over the growing number of spectators I see MARY DUMPH and NORMA KRING standing on tip-toes looking this way. So they are still toegther! ! Don ' t they ever fight? ? ? Pardon me while I wave to PAT DOYLE! ! He has finally worked his way up to be as- sistant street cleaner. Of all things! ! ! I just saw him ask MAY MUNTZ, that great dramatic actress of the New York stage, for her autograph. Speaking of New York — CAROL HAHN, a glamorous model, is ap- pearing tonight with her childhood sweet- heart, WILLARD LOSEE! ! ! ! And here at last comes HOB JOHNSTON! ! The idol of millions! ! He finally did get somewhere with those huge shoulders. After all the admiration from some of the under- classmen, he should have! MAXINE JEN- SEN as his mate, is simply terrific! ! ! ! What ' s this! ? ! Everyone seems to be staring at this exotic lady getting out of a taxi. Who is this unknown person? ? ? ? Why it ' s MAXINE HERSHBERGER, Dean of Women at Goshen College! ! My how Go- shen College has changed! ! ! Her gown is designed by that famous dress designer, DAR- WIN HIVELY. It ' s not surprising for Dar- win never could see why evening dresses had to be so high as the collar bone and has final- ly done something about it. EARL HOLDERMAN and CASSEL HOKE are still friends as partners in the great movie corporation, Twenty-first Century Fox with competent RUBY HOLLOWAY as their busi- ness manager. Ruby is still a most ambitious person but what would she do without those weekly dates with a certain party from the huge city of Gravelton? ? ? Coming down the middle of the street is DAVE JOHNSON with an ice cream wagon. So he ' s still selling ice cream cones ! ! ! I wonder if he still makes them as small as he used to ? ? ? ! ! ! Cowboy BILL HENLEY is attending this gala premiere in a costume for the new pic- ture he is making Wild Bill Hickok Is Still Riding! The program is about to start so as I take one last look over this throng I see MRS. 0. A. LAMBERT. I talked with her the other day and she was telling me she had just employed two new servants. ORIE STOUT, as her loyal butler, who has the great responsibility of an- swering her door and just never lets a bill collector in; and MARILYN RICHMOND as a nurse maid. Marilyn is so-o-o wonderful with Viv ' s three little tots, I. C, U. R., and 0. K. She never lets them out of her sight! ! Viv ' s neighbor MRS. CHARLES PLETCHER, is having some marital difficulties. It seems her husband is being led astray by the oomph gal, NORMA DEISCH. But Peachy hasn ' t given up hope yet. And after all the vain searching for a husband in any place but Nappanee, CHARLOTTE SHAUM has finally found her heart ' s desire in MAX GWIN. The only thing prolonging a happy ending is her cousin, MARILYN STAHLY who is giving her some really tough compe- tition! Just a minute! ! ! There is quite a commo- tion out here. Someone is being mobbed by about twenty-five girls! ! There ' s a police- man diving after the victim! Would you look at that cop! ! If it isn ' t RICHARD PM meaj, COUNTS! ! ! Now who ' d have thought he would take up that occupation? ? ? He has finally reached and rescued the poor suffering male who is none other than PAUL CLOUSE, that daring gigolo of the great metropolis of Milford! ! ! He arrived in an ancient yellow convertible. Now I wonder where he got hold of that? ! ? ! Now let ' s go on in and see who we can find. There is STANLEY FARRINGTON who has become a super sleuth at Ye Olde Pool Room. He reports the various heavier losses of certain men about town to BILL WEBSTER to be put in the ' Educating the Wives column of the Nappanee Advance. Bill is running it now and with this column and three pages of Superman in every copy, you can easily see why his circulation is over a million copies daily. Up in the balcony sits JOAN MELLINGER, all alone. Now who would have suspected she would be an old maid? ? ? hat cruel tricks fate plays! ! Well. well. well, well! ! Down in the $7.70 seats there are three jitterbugs of long standing: WILMA NETTROUER, LOWELL GARDNER, and ELSIE BOUGHER, Rumor has it that the profits they are making as partners in that little Hot Spot of Northern Indiana on the outskirts of Goshen, will soon have them all on easy street. Just at my left I see DORIS FOUDY and ELEANOR PHEND. They are running a very unusual little place called Develop Yourself! They teach rumba lessons and gum chewing, respectively. Sitting right beside little ( ? ) me is that multi-millionaire JUNIOR FRENGER. Am I thrilled or am I thrilled! ! ? ? He made his millions through tire production. He de-. clares he is never going to be caught without tires again so he makes his own. What would Zeke do without those trips to New Paris? ? Now let ' s all settle down and enjoy the show and we ' ll all meet afterwards at WIL- LIE HOOVER ' S Kroger Bowl Nile Klub. It ' s his closing night as he expects to visit the city jail for an indefinite period. All this was brought on by his incompetent bookkeeping which we all knew was going to happen ' way back in 42. - - - See you later! ! ! — Jean Oyler.

Witnesses: Mr. A bell Mr. Roose Jean Oyler ipl ma Ji usi There are fifty-five students in the class of 1942. Twenty-seven are boys: twenty-eight are girls. During the past nineteen years, including the present year, 459 boys and 480 girls have graduated from N. H. S. The Valedictorian has been a girl thirteen times. The Salutatorian has been a girl eleven times. The boys have carried away both honors last year and this. Since the high school was organized in 1894. there have been a total of 1377 graduates. Birthdays are not evenly distributed throughout the year. There are eleven birthdays in August and ten in September. In 1941, there were ten birthdays in both July and August. Only two birthdays occur in July and two in August. The re- maining 30 birthdays are well scattered throughout the other eight months. There are twins on January 16, June 10, July 30, August 2. August 9, and August 15. One unlucky boy celebrates February 29. Six of these graduates celebrate birthdays from August 15 to August 23. Paul Clouse is the baby of the class. His age is 17 years, 5 months, and 16 days. He is closely crowded by Julia George and Willard Hoover. Paul is 3 days younger than Julia and 7 days younger than Willard. This is the second time in 19 years that the youngest graduate has been a boy. The average age of the boys is 17 years, 11 month and 25.4 days. The average age of the girls is 18 years. months, and 9 1 7 days. This is the youngest boys ' class during the past 18 years. No average age of boys has been under 18 years. hen school opened in September, 1930. seventy children enrolled in the first grade. Of those seventy thirty-one are on this stage tonight. Nineteen have moved, sixteen have dropped out and four are still undergraduates. Strange as it may seem, Richard Counts, Pat Doyle, Maryann Fox, Lowell Gardner, and Robert Geyer as well as, Carol Hahn. Maxine Hershberger, Georgia Hoffer. Cassel Hoke, and Earl Holder- man, appear in the register of 1930-31 in the same order as they are now enrolled as seniors. Can you beat it? Of the fifty-five graduates, five entered in 1929, thirty-one in 1930, seven from the second to eighth grade, and twelve entered as freshmen or later. The following have excelled in attendance. Those who have missed 5 days or less are: Mary Edith Dumph, Maryann Fox, Julia George, David Johnson, Lisle Roose, Francis Weldy. Cassel Hoke, and Annamae Reed. Of these Cassel Hoke and Anna- mae Reed had perfect attendance. — . A. Abell, Superintendent ' PUU Sl ClaM President James Carl Miller Vice President John Regenos Secretary and Treasurer Jane McFall Like a great musician easing into the last movement of a symphony we, the class of 1943, are nearing the end of our school days. For this year we selected James Carl Miller for our conductor with John Regenos as assistant conductor. We were given two very competent instructors this year, Miss Barnard and Mr. Busche. When we entered Nappanee High as freshmen we had 81 members but that membership has dwindled to 65. Our members participate in basketball, chorus, band, Hi-Y, G. R., G. A. A., and many other activities. The Junior-Senior Reception is the major chord of the finale for this year. — Jane McFall FIRST ROW: Ada Culp, Ruby Harter, Frances De- Bow, Betty Defrees.

Slurring to the treble cleff we note 35 girls. The key to our class activities is our two sponsors, Miss Blank and Mr. Grabill. Also, in swelling to three major notes we find Jim Stillson, president; Bill Mishler, vice president; Mary Louise Laser, secretary and treasurer. The tempo changes to those with the best dynamic capacity — our basketball players. They are Dallas Gardner, Bill Kurtz, and John Mellinger. We also have a large measure of girls in G. A. A., Girl Reserves, and both boys and girls in band. The party we planned during the first semester diminished but we are looking forward to a strong crescendo and a suc- cessful party this semester. — Marialyce Metzler. President Carol Pletcher Vice President Charles Stump Secretary and Treasurer Joan Nunemaker We, the class of ' 45, have found our footing on the first stepping stone with an enrollment of 66. Miss Barnard and Mr. Schuler are our sponsors. We elected as our guide Carol Pletcher, with Charles Stump as her assistant. Joan Nune- maker continues as recorder. We have lost Mr. Schuler to the army, but Miss Barnard has carried on excellently. A great sorrow came to us upon the death of Clifford Mc- Cuen, the father of one of our classmates. We are confidently looking forward to next year, when we expect to tread on the next stone in our high school journey. — Charles Stump.

ACTIVITIES Activities provide diversion from studies for the student. The pro- grams of these many clubs and organizations are interesting as well as intellectual. For the athletic boy there are track, tennis, baseball, and basketball and for the girls there is the G. A. A. Some of the clubs such as the Girl Reserves and the Hi-Y have certain qualifications to join. The club meetings, the parties, the new friends you make, and the high standards of these clubs, all make these organizations both interesting and worth while to join. School Buys.

The money for these robes has been earned entirely by the chorus, through programs, operettas, etc. Not only the dress, but the quality of the chorus has improved. The chorus shows great promise for the next few years, as we have some very excellent vocalists in the lower classes.

As the official body of student government, the Student Council acts as a medium through which student and administrative problems are interpreted. This year we were mostly interested in doing away with tardiness, and our campaign proved some- what successful. The Student Council is made up of all the members of the National Honor Society together with two representatives from each home room of the junior high and high school grades not represented by members of the National Honor Society. This totals twenty-nine members in addition to Mr. Roose, our sponsor. Our social calendar included a party given in our honor by the Student Council of Wakarusa High School, February 5, at which a dinner was enjoyed and various games were played. In the future we recommend such functions as this as a means of getting better acquainted with Student Councils of other schools. — Bette Tobias. The National Honor Society was organized in 1921. In 1936 our school became a member of this national society. It is composed of pupils who stand in the highest ten per cent of the junior and senior classes. The purpose of this society is to create enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote leader- ship, and to develop character. Each year the society has a special project. This year the members are making a service flag which is in remembrance of the men and women who have gone from Nappanee High School and are now in service. — Virgina Holaway.

The club was created to encourage and promote an increased interest in science. The high standard of the club makes this club very successful and helpful to members. To be eligible to become a member one must be taking either chemistry or physics. He must have a B average or above in his grades. A student that has already taken chemistry or physics and has met the required standards can also join the club if he so desires. The club ' s meetings are held weekly between the hours of seven and nine in the school ' s science room. This year the club decided to change its course of experi- menting to the study of aeronautics. Books were purchased by the members and the study of aeronautics was begun. Each member took his turn in leading in the dis- cussion of his chapter which made the subject interesting to all. ■ — Francis Weldy.

Also a great majority of boys pur- chased the official Hi-Y hat which can be worn anytime and anywhere (except in the school building.) We had extremely educational and entertaining meetings, to say nothing of the fathers ' and sons ' banquet which was enjoyed by all who attended. All in all, we feel that we have written another outstanding page in the annals of Nappanee High School. — Lisle Roose. ' wdM i SEATED: Barbara Postma. Carol Fletcher, Betty Postma.

Girl Reserves are gracious in manner was soon forgotten when the old Girl Reserves initiated the new members. A very impressive candle lighting service was held soon after the rough initi- ation. The Girl Reserves gave Christmas baskets to the needy families at Christmas. Our meetings consisted of musical numbers, readings, impromptu programs as well as many interesting outside speakers. We all hope that next year the Girl Reserves meetings will be as interesting and helpful as they were this year. — Joan LeFevre. President Norma Sechrist Vice President Betty Strauss Secretary Rosemary Martin Treasurer Charlotte Shaum Purpose: To find and give the best. Slogan : To face life squarely. The Cirl Reserves, one of the outstanding clubs of NHS. was organized in 1925 as a branch of the Elkhart YVTCA. The sponsor was Hazel Dickey and included a membership of twenty-five. Our present sponsors are Miss Lantz and Miss Barnard and our membership is sixty-four. The symbol of the club is the blue triangle; the base standing for spirit, and its two sides for health and knowledge. The social calendar shows that the rough initiation was held in the school gym- nasium in October. The candle-lighting ceremony took place on October 14. At Christmas a party was given for the needy grade children and a basket of food was contributed to charity. We, the sophomore, junior, and senior girls, sincerely hope that we have been true to our purpose and that, in the future, we may, each and everyone, be equally true to our slogan and purpose. — Rette Tobias.

The older pupils cooperated splendidly in setting an example for the smaller children. M(pnd M The duty of the monitors is to collect the attendance slips. The slips are collected every hour and give a record of all pupils who are absent in each class. Zmna ikuvL Each year something new is added to the library. This year a new encyclopedia entitled Britannica Junior was added. Among the new books were the Junior Literary Guild books. Subscriptions to new magazines have made the library more useful and more interesting to the students. Never before has there been so great a need for knowledge. B ooks are keys to wisdom ' s treasure; ooks are gates to lands of pleasure; ooks are paths that upward lead; ooks are friends. Come, let us read! Not only to the students is the library beneficial, but to the librarians as well. Their training in using the library helps the other students and what the librarians themselves learn will help them use other libraries. — Jean Oyler.

They stood back of the teams and gave them endless encouragement and cooperation. The fans have achieved the good sports- manship attitude desired by the of- ficials and school faculty. Our cheer leaders, Bette Tobias, Shirlee Walters, and Ellen Jean Pippen, deserve much credit in leading the fans in cheering the team on. Along with the cheer leaders the band has also encouraged the team and fans!

It was humorous to see the new members push candy kisses the length of the gym floor with their noses. A few went home with skinned and bruised noses. The old and new members alike enjoyed themselves to the fullest extent. The sports the girls participate in are: in- door baseball, basketball, volleyball, track, tennis, hiking, bowling, and bicycling. When a girl has earned 150 points, she gets her N. H.

By the way, she said, when a piece came to an end, What ' s that book the conductor keeps looking at? That ' s the score of the overture. Dave re- plied. Oh. she exclaimed. Who ' s winning? — o — ■ Customer: And vou have the nerve to ask five dollars a bottle for this nerve tonic? Chemist: Yes. madam, that shows what it will do. I take it regularly. Doctor, if there is anything the matter with me, don ' t frighten me half to death by giving it a long scientific name. Just tell me what it is in plain English. Well, Marshall, to be frank with you, you are lazy. Thank you. doctor. Now tell me the scientific name for it. I ' ve got to report to the principal. — o — Farmer: And this is the cider press, ma ' am. Jean Oyler: How interesting. And when do you run off the next edition? — o — ■ Mr. Best: Why do they have knots on the ocean instead of miles? Goon: To keep the ocean tide. — o — A Scotchman discovered a previous cus- tomer ' s tip beside his plate in a restaurant. He summoned the waitress: I found this beside my plate, he told her. I ' m a sportsman — I ' ll match ye for it. — o — Skip : My father is a brave man, he is. He killed five lions and an elephant in Africa, single-handed. Jim Martin: Bosh, that ' s nothing. My dad bought a new sedan when ma wanted a coupe. Did you make the debate N-n-no. They s-s-said I Miss Barnard: team? Dave Miller: wasn ' t t-t-tall enough. — o — Boss (storming) : You ' re fired! Ora Stout: Fired? That ' s news to me. I always supposed slaves were sold. — o — 0. A.: You always do all the talking and never listen. Viv: How ridiculous! I ' ve heard every word I ' ve said. 4 Julie: Run upstairs and get ' my watch for me. Atley: Wait awhile and it will run down. Julie: Oh no it wont! We have a wind- ing stairs. — o — Doyle ( looking down over the bridge at a fisherman) : Are the fish biting today? Clouse (disgustedly) : I couldn ' t say for sure. But if they are, they ' re biting each other. Cassel Hoke: What time do you get up in the summer? Earl Holderman: As soon as the first ray of sun comes in at my window. Cassel: Isn ' t that rather early? Earl : Oh, no ! My room faces west. Mr. Busche: What key are you playing i? Player: Skeleton key. Mr. Busche: Skeleton key? Player: Yes, it fits anything. Jo. Em going to kiss you under the mistle- toe when I go, said Kirby, who had tarried so long that he was wearing out his welcome. Do it now, while Em still young, Jo re- plied wearily. Kind gentleman to a little boy eating an ap- ple: Look out for the worms, sonny. Bill Webster: When I eat an apple, the worms have to look out for themselves. If all the pupils who sleep in classes were laid out in a long line, they would be a lot more comfortable.

A f •: ♦ MatooU um£U the five SucceAA. . . . Personal success is not a destination, it is a journey. It is the direct route to the satisfaction of all of the human desires, fame, fun, and fortune. It offers the only assurance that these ends may be attained. And yet it has been observed that only 5% of the world ' s people make an effort to discover it. Success. Arnold Bennett said that most people do not desire success; that they do not know what it is, and would not recognize it. It is a truth that, at one time, there are never more than 5% of the people anywhere, who have enough of the old git up and git , to become self starters, let alone leaders. Most people, the 95%, wait until someone comes by on the band wagon and then try to climb aboard. They are never there to hitch up the horses that pull the wagon ... let alone lead the band, find the wagon, or drive it. So it is that success is not especially difficult ... it is not hard to step up into the 5%, because so few people ever try to get there . . . But there is one thought to keep constantly in mind. And if its truth and value is comprehended there is great hope that you are on the verge of marching as one of the five ... a success. That thought is simply this: There is one thing more important than success, and that is to DESERVE IT. MUTSCHLER BROTHERS COMPANY is aware that much of what has been said of personal success applies to the success of a business. Through each succeeding successful year of its fifty, MUTSCHLER has acknowl- edged its obligation by striving to build finer products for less money for more people.
