H132 TIFUIIN Volume IX The Student Annual of Portland High SI'l'l00l Portlauul. Indiana V77 l'ulllislu-1l by tlu- Svniol' Class V , Page t l4'0BEW0IlD F OR many months the Tifoon staff has labored to publish the annual for 1932. In so far as possible, we have attempted to make this a book that will truly mirror the spirit of Portland High School. The judgment lies with you. If we have succeeded it is only because of the loyal support of both our fellow students and the many friends of the school. If we have failed, because of our in- ability to catch the spirit of our school, the Tifoon staff shoulders the responsibility. Re- member- It is better to have failed than never to have tried. We have tried! . ' 1 .. 1. ,ga DEDICATIUN HIS year we, the Senior Class, dedicate our annual for 1932, to all of our teachers. We believe that the real work and benefit of our teachers is unappreciated by the majority A of. persons. A short article by Dr. Henry Van Dyke expresses our thoughts far better than We can write them. THE UNKNOWN TEACHER by DR. HENRY VAN DYKE I sing the praise of the unknown teacher. Great Generals win campaigns, but it is the unknown soldier who wins the war. Famous educators plan new systems of pedagogy, but it is the unknown teacher who delivers and guides the young. For him no trumpets blare, no chariots wait, no golden decorations are decreed. He keeps the watch along the borders of darkness and makes the attack on the trenches of ignorance and folly. Patient in his daily duty, he strives to conquer the evil powers which are the enemies of youth. He awakens sleeping spirits. He quick- ens the indolent, encourages the eager and steadies the' unstable. He communi- cates his own joy in learning and shares with boys and girls the best treasures of his mind. He lights many candles which, in later years, will shine back to cheer him. This is his reward. Knowledge may be gained from books 5 but the love of knowledge is transmitted only by personal contact. No one has deserved better of the Republic than the unknown teacher.

M. Columbia, Univeisity Graduate Study at Ullivago Vuiversity and lndiana University Here Are Some Ideas of a Great Hero Tho attention of every man, woman and vhild is being di1'erte'd this year to the COllllll0lll01 ation of the birth of the greatest Arnerivane-the founder of our nation-George Washington. When the Corner stone of the National Monument to this great Ainerivan Patriot and States- man was laid, .luly 4, l848fthe following' question was asked. In what did the power of Washington eonsist? The ansuer, in part, was this:-Hlt was the high moral element of his vharaeter which imparted to it its preponderating forve. llis invorruptihle honesty, his devout rellarn-o on Gold, the purity of his life, the svrupulousnoss of his l'0llSL'l0ll06, the distinterested- re-ss of his purposes, his humanity, generosity and justire-those were the ingredients which lilending harmoniously with solid information and sound judgment and a valor only equalled hy his modesty, made up a. f'l1aravte1' to whim-h the world may lie fearlessly challenged for a parallel. ' ' . It is hoped, that the qualities of L-haravter whivh made George Washington great, will cl1a1'avte1'ize tho lives of all the pupils who rome in touch with the Portland ,lligh School.

For eleve11 years as prinvipal, Mr. Weller has l' een an true friend and a real inspiration to all students who have 001116 into Contact with him. Never was he toorbusy to help a student by his well Chosen advice. Even students who have been away from sfhool for several years ,' ' ' -' ' ' . N ' , 1 ' . . , . ny proklems en- tained by such a school as P. ll. S., our principal was not without :ai sense of humor as has been often evinced. The graduating Glass of '32 owes Mr. Weller a debt of gratitude. Page Twelve l - - - 0ur Supervisors I I To compensate for the behavior of the pupils' attitude toward the teachers we feel that this column should quote the virtues of our instructors and not their vices. We students may act as though the teachers are the plague from Heaven but in reality every sentence and every thought is received with gratefulness for the opportunity to increase our knowledge. ' A Naturally all classes have had their Blue Mondays but you, conveyors of knowledge, have had more patience with our Houndering lessons than even Job. And you may be sure that in all our future trials we will not need say, Lord God of Hosts be with us yet, Lest we forget, lest we forget. , -R. Kipling.

At last she became very angry. Young man, she said, 'fyou look after that bus of yours and watch where you are going. I'11 tell you when it starts raining, Mr. Smith-I must see the doctor today, I don't like the way my wife looks. Mr. Schwengel-I'lI go too, I can 't hear the sight of mine either. Mr. Robb rushed into a telephone booth and asked the operator for Double two, double two. ' ' Two, two, two, two, replied the operator, reproachfully. All right, sighed Mr. Robb, Hbut get the number first, and we'll play train after- wards. Miss Nonweiler walked into a department store and said-I see by your advertisement, I N that you have just received two thousand hats from Paris. Yes, madam, the respectful manageress informed her. Good,,' said Miss Nonwe-iler taking off her hat, I wish to try them on. OH! DOCTOR! Mr. Perkins fto the Civics Classj-You should know the Preamble to the Constitution but if you don 't you 'll Hndit in your appendix. Mr. Robb-Say, whatls the idea? Whyid you give that girl such a big tip when she gave you your coat? . Mr. Foland--Look at the coat she gave me. Miss Current fexplaining problem written on the boardj-Now watch the board closely while I run through it. Mr. Porter-There goes the meanest fellow in school. Mr. Smith-Why? Mr. Porter-I told him I bossed my wife and he went and told her. Mr. Schwengel-I can't understand what's wrong with my raver. It doesn 't out at all. Mrs. Schwengel-Nonsense, your beard canlt he tougher than the oilcloth. Mr. Foland-When did you put on that collar? Mr. Robb-This morning sir. Mr. Foland-Yes, I know, but how many times before this morning? Mrs. Farris-I just bought a set of Shakespeare. Mr. Farris-How many times have I told you not to buy those foreign tires? Miss White-Tell me one or two things about John Milton. Catherine McCoy-Well, he got married and he wrote Paradise Lost. Then his wife died and he wrote Paradise R-egainedl' Mrs. Sohwengel-Didn't I tell you to watch when that boiled over? Mr. Schwengel-I did, it was twenty after one. Mrs. Porter-When you sleep your noble brow reminds me of a story. Mr. Porter-Wliat story, Sleeping Beauty? V Mrs. Porter-No, Sleepy Hollow. I U Mrs, Farris worships her husband, doesn't she? Well, she places burnt offerings before him three times a day. ' Mrs. Smith-I've told you several times, Homer, to put your hand over your mouth when you yawn. Mr. Smith-Yes, but I got bit the last time I tried it. Is that an eight or a twelve? asked Miss Beeler. Both, replied Miss Harvey. Eight cylinders: twelve payments. Well, here is another Comedy of Errors, said Miss Shimp as she started to grade the test papers. Miss Rankin-What kind of a pie is this? Miss Glasgow-That's jam pie. ' Miss Rankin-How so? I see no jam. Miss Glasgow-The top is jammed against the bottom. Miss Fulton--I would just love to read a lot of Poe 's works, but I haven 't the time. Miss Stage-Don't read them, it will set you crazy. Iive read lots of them.

The class of 1932 has successfully hlled this vacancy and has established an enviable record of successful participation in scholastic and extracurricular activities. The accomp- lishments of the debating basketball, baseball, and football teams were due to the extensive participation of the Seniors of '32, in these activities. The Seniors also presented a Christmas program and the class play Father Walks Out, a spark- ling comedy with an interesting plot. X Throughout our four years' presence in this school we, the Seniors have helped to make the school a more enjoyable place, and egotistically suggest that the under- classmen follow our example.

After two years Mr. Keith Perkins took ehargfe upon the resignation of Mr. Avery. 'lhe llebating teams had steadily inereased their skill and 1932 marked the most snecessful season yet witnessed. 'l'ho question this year was stated: Resolved, that the several states shall adopt a system of eompulsory unemployment insuranee. This proved an extremely interesting and timely subjeet. After mueh researeh by both negative and atlirmative teams eight bras-tive debates were held. There was no deeision remlered in these pral-'tive debates. Double debates, that is the atlirmative and negative teams of Portland debating tl1e negative and atlirmative teams of another sehool, were held with the following: tlhnrubusvo, Ueeatur and North Hide, l t. lVayne.

Kingan and Company invited the Inarty to visit their plant on Feb. 4. The party was eoniposed of the following: John Sherman, John Paxson, Lewis Starr, Raymond Haines, Manuel Pratt, Irvin Blaek, Dan Ilarshman, Jay Starr, John Cummins, Frank Cline, W'illard Cummins, and Mr. Porter, the instruvtor. The group left the Court house at about 6:30 on Thursday morning and arrived at Indianapolis about 9 o'cloek. Wo went first to the stoek-yards, where we saw the live stock graded and made ready for the Eastern markets. After we left the stock-yard we went to the Kingan Packing Co. We saw the different proeesses of packing meat of all kinds. One of the most interesting places was the department for slicing and wrapping of bacon. After leaving Kingans we went down to the Abbator Beef Pac-king plant. After lnneh we went through the plant and saw the killing of the 'tbeef cattle. A very interesting sight was the eold storage room where the meat was kept until shipment. We then went to the Farm Bureau VVarehouse where we saw how they blended the diiferent kinds of oils to make their own standard blend. VVe arrived home at tive o'eloek, and a very interesting t1'ip was enjoyed by all. Tho agriculture elub lresides sponsoring the trip to Indianapolis have had several social events during the year. The most outstanding event was the banquet for the fathers of those taking agriculture. Other feeds were held during the year preeeded by basketball games and indoor baseball. BIG TIIINGS FROM OUR AGRICULTURE BOYS John Sherman, a junior of our sehool, went to the 4-ll club roundup at Purdue last spring. He won first in the state in Reef Cattle Judging, winning a. silver medal and bringing a silver trophy to the sm-hool. John Paxson, another junior of our sehool sent a doren eggs to the 4-II elub round-up at -Purdue and won first prize and sweepstakes in his class.

S- 5 x Panther9s Record PORTLAND 6 SOUTH SIDE CFORT WAYNEQ 18 The first game of the season opened at home against the South Side Archers of Ft. Wayne. Tho Archers brought a big team with plenty of substitutes. The Panthers started off with a long pass to Puckett, then two line plays which garnered six yards. Ehrhart then threw a short pass to Bair who raced across the goal line. The try for extra point failed. The Archers sent in subs who wore the Panthers down. They scored three touchdowns. PORTLAND 0 CENTRAL CATHOLIC 0 The Panthers journeyed to Fort Wayne to battle the Trish. The team was fitted in new uhito jerseys. The Panthers failed to take full advantage of a few breaks but held the up- state team to a scoreless tie. A drizsling rain halted tlie offense of both teams. Smith was in uniform for the Erst time this season. PORTLAND 15 AUBURN 6 With one tie and one loss the Panthers decided that they had to win the next game., Auburn was next and a win looked doubtful lfecausc the Auto City had piled up a total of 113 points to their opponents, 12 in only two games. The Panthers never gave up, that, Never say die spirit, and with Morey and Coulson scoring touchdown apiece, lilhrhart plunging for an extra point and the line blocking a punt for a safety the Panthers garnered 15 points while Auburn gained but 6. PORTLAND 19 DECATUR 0 Portland got sweet revenge by defeating the Decatur Yellow Jackets by a score of 19 to 0. Decatur had a big team but were uuableito stop the offensive attack launched by the Panthers. Coach Farris used his second string most of the entire game or the score would have undoubt- edly been much larger. Coulson, Puckett, and Haminitt made touchdowns, while Ehrhart made one extra point. PORTLAND 7 BLUFFTON 0 The Panthers went to Bluffton to play under light. ln the first quarter the game was all in Bluffton 's favor, but Portland got started and it was too bad! for the Tigers. Puckett scored on a pass from Ehrhart and they added the extra point. The line held Bluffton on the I8-inch line fcr four downs and with only two minutes left to play the lights went out and couldn't be fixed. 1 PORTLAND 12 I ' NORTH SIDE QFT. WAYNEQ 25 This game on the Fort Wayne grzdiron was featured by beautiful runs, passes and very deceptive faking, The Panthers came out on the short side of a 25 to 12 score but they were in there scrapping. The Red Skins were fast and having good interfererence scored the first touchdown. U11 the first play after the kick the Panther 's perfect interference netted 60 yards on an end run. They scored a touchdown but failed in making the extra point. The game seesawed back and forth but ended in a defeat for the Panthers. A PORTLAND O MORTON CRICHMONDQ 12 It rained all week and the field was a sea of mud, but the Red Devils came to play foot- ball. Neither team scored for a while for the running plays couldn't be worked. A Richmond player intercepted a pass and went for a touchdown but the try for extra points failed. Money recovered a Richmond fumble and ran for a touchdown but it failed to count. Then Richmond scored again. Inelgibilities and injuries and lack of substitutes was mostly the cause of this game being lost. Page Sixty ygjf A , A, A A...

V, H3 Jiqiie: TWV, , sr T P 1 - ' Class 'History The class of '32 may well go down in history as a great class for it is the largest and best class ever to be graduated from Portland High School. It is also the most original as is shown by its selection of caps and gowns as commencement apparel and its use of a standard ring. There were approximately 145 Freshmen who entered Portland High School in the autumn of 1928. Since then there have been quite a few losses and several gains, the final result being a class of 83 graduates. Q The first two years were not very exciting. At 'first we were awed by the dignified upper classmen, the many rooms and corridors, but finally when we became Sophomores we felt wiser and more a part of things in general. By the autumn of 1930 we were organized and well on our way with class officers, class colors, and a new dignity born of being Juniors. Our class officers were: Jack Bergman, Presidentg Katheryn Bourne, Vice President 3 Ruth Harter, Secretary-Treasurer, with Miss Hope Rankin as Class Sponsor. Under the able direction of Miss Rankin and Miss Shimp the Junior class produced, H The Love Expert, a very good three-act comedy. This thrilling year ended with a superb Junior and Senior Reception, the details being managed by our president, Jack Bergman. Our Senior class was organized under new officers: Charles Campbell, President, Robert Jack, Vice President 5 Catherine McCoy, Secretary-Treasurer, with Miss Hattie White as Class Sponsor. I The Christmas program sponsored by the Seniors was very successful. An extremely interesting one-act play, f'Grandma's Christmas Guest, was presented. Our four years of hard work and good times have now come to an end and we shall go out into the world as individuals to fight for what is best. But we will never forget dear old P. H. S. and our activities which were carried on there. As We leave, may we say that we wish the best of luck to future classes which will graduate from our beloved school. --Marion Rape.

Page Seventy-five Class Poem We are the class of 532 of dear old Portland Hi, We take with us while leaving you, Sweet memories that will never die. We are a goofy bunch of kids, but we have our good points too, And on this date I will relate a daring fact or two. A Charles Campbell, our President, has curls upon his b1'0W, An oratorical voice, a ladies' man, that fact we will allow. And Daniel Gaunt thumps on the keys of the piano every day, The people come from far and wide to listen to him play. I I Irvin Black is another man who always likes to fool And play about the girls that come to our beloved school. Jay Starr packs a mighty right, they tell it all around, How if he hits another man, the man will hit the ground. Our building is a good stout one and made so nice and neat, But nevertheless the timbers crack when Frank Finch takes his seat. If beautiful blondes were tabooed Dorothy Rupe would be a curse, They say she 'S too nice for P. H. S. so she 's leaving to be a nurse. Those large tempting dark brow11 eyes, they doth belong to Merle, I've heard people say as she passed there goes a wonderful girl. Todd Bair has nice curly hair, a permanent so it would seem, He acts like a devil with his hair combed straight When he plays on the football team, Robert Wehrly the sheriif's son, Treva Nelson, full of fun. Agnes Landis and Reita Shepherd walk a lot each day, That 's the way they keep their girlish Hgures, so they say. Thelma Beeler thinks its fun to take a slam at everyone, Dale Bickel smiles and plays at night, for a cute little blonde VVith blue eyes bright. Katheryn Bourne thinks Otto 's just the stnif, Altho sometimes he 's so mean and rough, Fred Coulson holler's What can save us, From the charms of Luva Davis. Juanita Baldwin really thinks, that Bob Williamson is very cute and sweet, And Jack Bergman would rather stay with Louise, than go home to sleep and eat. Ruth Harter has the nicest ways, and pleasant eyes of brown, Don Gardner thinks she is the sweetest girl that lives in this fair town. Mildred McKeW never tardy, Nifty dame-Edith Hardy. Elizabeth Meehan drives a Lizzie, Her sister Ruth is rather dirry. Minnie Jellison and Harriet Banta, These young meek girls believe in Santa. A pleasant girl is Kathryn West, Mary Wilkins our choice and best. Orval Bisel the Bluff Point boy, to act a fool his natural joy. Leslie Glasgow, slow and lazy, William Gilpin, slightly crazy. Dorothy Green I think she is grand, she 'll probably land that Wehrly man. Esther Gillespie has beautiful hair, uses Palmolive soap for skin so fair. , Page Seventy-six . l , Agnes Castoris hair was black but now is blonde Because she put peroxide on. Catherine Castle, small, petite, Dorothy Scholer, clever, neat. Vivian Bryan, the baker 's daughter, Robert Lewis, derisive laughter. Robeitilloover, the Collett lgoy, simply loved his baseball, If he doesn't shave till they win, he won 't shave at all. A crash, a bang, a hullabulloo, Dan Harshman crashes in, Sees Bill LaFollette on the stage, and pulls his ears of tin. For lreing the class 's smallest man, Kenneth Heni: er takes the price, States Robert S1 ahr of a tall blonde girl, her eyes I idoli: e. Grayco Coder canlt ke beat, Margorie Conyers, red-haired sweet. Mary .lane Dollins cracks her gum, Charley Bain sucks his thumb. George Wendell Harris specializes in art, When there is a boys' chorus they give him a part. I I Ethel LaFollette talks and chatters all the day, And spends the nights cooing and crooning to Ray. Jim Keene, a nifty delcater, started to speak. Wham! a potater. Rex Mcllague is a ine athlete who can handle his head, his body, and feet. Thelma Slick an awful masher, Garold Simmons bashful basher. , Robert Jack with raspberry hair, when you pass Gaunts he is always there. Ruth Edna Steed quiet and sedate, the girls keep Ossie Woods out late. Dwight Green has goo-goo eyes, Treva Glentzer-Latin prize. Harold Steed the teacher ls pet, Maurice Wyrick says you bet. Catherine McCoy has a way that lures men on from day to day. Mary Jane Arbaugh is a peachy girl, live often heard it said, Some teachers say 'tMary Bonifas is dumb, yet words come from her head. Darious llamma likes to speak, John Carson is much the same, You can 't stop them when started, though you may try again and again. The Rev. Ira Atkinson, what holiness he hath And Ira makes the teachers sc-ringe, when he gives his big horse laugh. Doris Journey and Elsie Ayres, are regular grammar stars, Lawrence Williams loves to run and play among the grass and flowers. And Malcolm Smith the women love, his heart to them is true, I often heard some damsel scream, those whiskers scratch oo-oo. Wayne Chittum has a very active mind I I And so has his classmate Frankie Cline. i Virginia Reeves rules all the Girl Reserves And with her charm the men she lures Delores Starr, quiet and serene Cute Gene Hiatt, the campus queen. Virginia Rowland, wise in. class Alta Garringer, the country lass. Clarinda Ashley at her Work is game, Pauline Ritter is the same. This is the end of a perfect poem ' Start on the road and keep on goin On the road to Wealth, Happiness and Fa e, Good-by old pals till we meet again. 7 U1 - Page Seventy-seven h A - 1 Q - R e ee e ggnsceml rv D ip ,. E Eg, - , it 5' tj' Q Y i.-V-,- .1W - 1-'- f l Good 0pportunitios - Invincible Proof All thoughtful minded citizens of Portland and the surrounding community who take careful notice of these scientific data, must conclude that the well trained teachers of Portland are rendering greatest service at least cost. Children of any community, who have such advantageous opportunities offered them, as are offered by Portland, are fortunate. The birthright of all Hoosier school children entitles them to the best possible Edu- cation and Training. Nine Months, First Class Commissioned and Approved North Central Association Schools are unquestionably of the Best Type of Public Schools in Indiana. David Starr Jordan, ex-president of Leland Stanford University, said:- You can't hang a ten-thousand dollar Education on a fifty cent boy. Though it would be a crime, if a dollar boy or a million dollar boy, should have only a fifty cent Education put on him. To unnecessarily substitute, a third-class, or even a second-class School for a first- class Educational Opportunity, is a matter of grave concern. The children are the losers. Their lives throughout the scores of years, which may follow their school days, will be affected by this mistake. They are worthy of the best Schooling. Prudent people will not tamper with human careers, by offering their children any- thing but the best that is to be had. A Fortunately, Portland offers one of the best type of Schools-in the State, to the pupils of this Community, which logically and naturally reaches into several townships of Jay County. The county seat Town is naturally a Community Center. Good Results Since 1925, the Portland Schools have had pupils or students who have won a num- ber of worthwhile prizes and honors. The 1929 Portland School Annual contained one illustrative plate which gave pictures of more than thirty pupils or students who had won honors in state-wide or more than state-wide contests. During that same year three boys, Portland High School graduates, were listed among President Elliott's distinguished student group, at Purdue University. A Results of the 1932 interscholastic activities and state-wide contests indicate that not less than a dozen more awards will come to Portland before July 31-the end of this School Year. For Portland to have both the winning Affirmative and Negative Debating teams of the District, also to have the Erst, second and third Division winners in the County Latin Contest, which is a part of the larger State Contest, is certainly a creditable showing in such activities. In addition, we have just learned that Portland won second place in the American Legion Auxiliary Essay Contest of Indiana. ' Wise School Officers and Parents fulfill their obligations best, when they offer their children the best education possible. The Best Schools Possible at the Least Cost is a good Motto for Parents and for School Officials. J. C. WEBB, Superintendent of Portland Schools. Page Seventy-eight Z H 1 I I R-HW Edin Sw?

E. Highley, of the Indiana Research Club, presents interesting data relative to the School Expenditures and Per Capita Costs oi twenty-three Cities whose School Superintendents are active members of that Club. Portland is one of the tweny-three cities. Mr. Highley Finds the average per capita cost for all expenditures of the twenty- three cities is ninety-three dollars 1393.005 and that the cost in Portland is only seventy- six dollars f376.00J, twenty-two per cent C2229 less than the average. Again he linds that the Portland High School Instruction Cost is twenty-two per cent C2220 less than the average of the twenty-three cities, and that the Portland Ele- mentary School Per Capita Instruction Cost is forty-four per cent C44'Z1j less than the average of these cities. This Elementary Instruction Cost includes the Instruction Cost of Portland's Commissioned Junior High School, which is one of twenty-seven such schools in Indiana. Evidently Portland School Administration Cost is LOW. Statistical Abstract Data The data taken from the Statistical Abstract from the State Superintendent of Edu- cation shown on the next page show Statistics of School Administration for 21 cities of Indiana. In taxable wealth Portland is the median of the 21 cities. But Portland High School's Per Capita Cost is 323.48 less than the average Per Capita Cost of the 21 city schools of Portland's type. For Portland's 489 High School pupils, that means 311,681.72 less cost for Portland High School than for the average of the 21 cities. Portland also has similar low costs for the Elementary Grades and the junior High School. Portland has 416 C3670 more pupils enrolled than the average of these cities. The School Tax Levy for Portland is 15c C12f7bj more than the average of the 21 cities. Port- land also has 3949.17 C2170 less wealth per pupil enumerated. If the Portland Schools were costing taxpayers in proportion to these 21 cities, Portland's tax rate would be 31.88 instead of 31.54 fthe present ratej. That is, the number enrolled in the average of the 21 cities, C1l31j, is to the number enrolled in the Portland Schools, 05475, as the average Levy, f31.37j, is to 31.88-what Portlandls Levy would be if it were in propor- tion to the Levyof the 21 cities. Portland's Levy would then be 2211 higher.
