The events of 1937-38 now are no novelty-they have too recently hap- penedg but all this debris which the whirl- wind has gathered will one day resolve it- self into bits of precious memories, and we shall be glad that the cyclonic storm did sweep over us with such thoroughness and in so great detail. ..4...

Class Data LUNIIQNIS ' x 1' Mr. Weller When the Whirlwind would be- come particularly Violent in 1937- 8, there Was always one person on Whom We could depend for strength. He never lost his head, but remained calm and steady in his place and spread confidence and good cheer to us panic strick- en students. Among the many fine qualities which We admire in Mr. Weller, these characteristics of clearhead- edness and calm judgment are not the least. This year saw a reorganization in the School Board, with Mr. By- ron Jenkins as President, Mrs. Emmett Saxman as Secretary, and Mr. Donald Hammitt as Treasur- er. With Mr. J. C. Webb, they form an efficient administrative body. The death of Mrs. Opal Miller on July 25, 1937 brought a dis- tinct loss to the schools of Port- land, for she had been a capable and loyal member of the board for five years.

THE MEGAPHONE An interesting and worthwhile all-student proj- ect has been carried out this year in the publica- tion of a monthly school paper, The Megaphone, sponsored by Miss White and Mrs. Jones. Under the eye of the editor the copy turned in by the heads of all the departments was typed by the 12A typing class and duplicated on the ditto machine and hand hectograph. As yet the Megaphone is more or less of an experiment but each succeeding issue shows much improvement, and is received with more and more enthusiasm by the student body. MASQUE AND WIG Because the need of a dramatics club in P, H. S. was felt so keenly, the speech class set about or- ganizing such a group. After a constitution had been drawn up and accepted, the following ofiicers were elected: Everett Mays, President, Preston Houk, Vice-Presidentg Eugenia Taylor, Secretary- Treasurerg Mr. Dale Smith, Sponsor, Naomi Bos- worth, Assistant Sponsor. Try-outs were held and twenty-five members in all were chosen. They selected the name Masque and Wig Club of P. H. S. and purchased pins. Great enthusiasm greeted the several plays presented.

Ye Editor Bourne requested to hear, And moreover she tasked me To tell her in rhyme. I told her in rhyme For of rhymes I had store: How in thirty-four Students by the score, Just like a tifoon Were swept up so soon By a cyclonic storm. Thus to our amaze We began our high school days, So twirling and whirling, And thumping and bumping, And laughing and crying, And giggling and wiggling, And moaning and groaning, And grumbling and rumbling, We ascended the storm. Spooky Tavern was so mysterious The audience simply went delirious, We honored the Seniors in Mayg It was fun-we must say, So glancing and dancing, We whirled along. Debating and playing, And tooting and rooting, And clashing and flashing, And winning and losing, We struggled along. We played the host For Saturday Evening Ghost? 7 On May 20 in our Class Day best, We strutted our talents before the rest, So always ascending, Toward our dreams still bending, We receive our diplomas- The eye of the storm. With one last sigh, And a tear in our eye, Always regretting, Never forgetting- These school days of ours. -Maxine Weist ANNA MARY DETAMORE Best wishes for a speedy recovery.

A few of us have been lost in the struggle, but most of us are successfully weathering the storm. Al- though perhaps we bear a few scars, we are proud of them and grateful for the experi- ence we have gained.

Of course, we realize that that attain- ment has not yet been reached, but we are confident that with our past record as a foundation, we will be able to achieve even greater heights, and leave behind us an un- forgettable portion of the Tifoon of P. H. S. which we, the class of '39 have created. JUNICDRS -19... X' 1 For two years we, the class of '40, as we have been whirled around in the Tifoon of P. H. S. , have become familiar with some of its peculiarities. It did not take us long to discover that as we traveled upward in- side the cone of the Tifo0n our circumfer- ence became wider, and our speed slower. We realized that we were no longer being carried along head-over-heels, but were able to straighten ourselves out, and to discover a perspective by which we might add our part to the whole Tifoon. We realize that we have hardly begun our long journey with the Tifoon. We realize also that even though the struggle will be diiiicult, our course is always upward, and we hope that with the help of the faculty and the experiences of those who have gone up before us, we shall successfully reach the eye of the storm. ...gg- Row li Maelalyn Elder, Betty Alex- ander, Esther Fenters.

H. S. swirl us up. At first we were dizzy and bewildered at the rapid pace and helter-skelter- ness of life in a Tifoon , but now we are beginning to become accus- tomed to the whirl and to feel that We are an essential part of it. Full of grit and determination, We are resolved to reach the eye of the storm four graduationj, and to leave behind us a worthy record of achievements to serve as inspiration for other bewildered Fresh- men. ,23- Row 1: Vivian Nichols, Virginia Walters, Nancy Page, Bonnie Lake, Margaret Woods, Alice Fox, Betty Wherry, Maxine Shroll, Elenor Reed, Thelma Ferris.

If anyone would take the time to look beneath the very tip of the Tifoon of P. H. S. , he would find there a handful of insigni- ficant-looking students called the Mid-year Freshiesf' But as they are swept along With the Tifoon , We feel that they will become less and less insignificant until one day we shall suddenly realize that they are really a vital part of it. -24- f M f xx, .1 'J .1-'---w in .... .,.vf..-..,.-. -., . v-x.,,3, Wt, -Karat . ., - ,uf-fp ' 3.4 .:sFw:qia15.'1':ff.-'11-cf ., ' ,---f , ..miq .-f ' ' .

R. spirit, pep, and gog Just to look at her is quite a treat, It's hard to beat A G. R. girl. To prove that a G. R. girl has spirit, pep, and go just read the various things they have accomplished during the year. At Christmas time they had the annual Big Sister party and helped a needy family. Sev- eral books were given to the school library, a celebration of Twelfth Night was given, an exhibition of dolls of several lands was conducted, and a soap carving movie was shown. The Pall Mall Marionette perform- ance in April and the Mother and Daughter Banquet in May clirnaxed the year's activ- ities. Due to illness, Anna Mary Detamore was forced to leave school and Margaret Weller was elected Secretary to complete the un- expired term. Faculty sponsqs were Miss Beeler, Miss Nixon, and Miss Tharp. Mrs. Byron Jenkins represented B. P. W. while Mrs. Vaughn Stanton and Mrs. Robert Stev- enson were Mother Advisers. Hi-Y HI. ..27...

The oiiicers of the Hi-Y for this year were Preston Houk, President, Robert Pearson, Vice-President, Junior Stevenson, Secretaryg Royce Martin, Treasurerg Bill Mayo, Ser- geant-at-armsg and Mr. Hiatt, Sponsor. The club strove to carry on with its purpose, to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community the high standards of Christian Character. Meetings were held on Wednesdays, the members often being addressed by speakers on important topics of the day. An occasion- al social meeting Was held. During the Christmas season the club do- nated several baskets of food to worthy fam- ilies. The club also purchased a new diction- ary stand for the school library. The outstanding social events of the year were the annual Hal1owe'en party in October and the Father and Son Banquet in March where Reverend Charles M. Houser of Ft. Wayne gave the address. This year the debate teams, under the leadership of A. Dale Smith, enjoyed a com- paratively successful season debating the proposition, Resolved: That the state of In- diana should adopt a unicameral system of legislation. During the season three no- decision practice debates were held with Ft. Recovery. On February 3, the teams par- ticipated in two debates with Hagerstown. Decisions in both of these debates were given to Hagerstown. Later, Portland was host to teams from Saint Henry. Both affirmative teams were victorious in this conflict. The district debate tournament was held at Elwood on February 8, with teams from Elwood, Anderson, Fairmount, and Portland entering. Although the negative team lost to affirmative teams from Anderson and El- wood, the Portland affirmative won from neg- ative teams from Fairmount and Elwood. Thedfinal victor of the tournament was El- woo . ' t fi The Portland affirmative team consisted of Martha Stephenson and Max McKinley with Mary Ellen Ronald as alternateg the nega- tive, Robert Ronald and Leo Smith with Miriam Hanlin as alternate. ...28.... The Vo-Ag Club is completing one of its most active and progressive years. In individual enterprises five members are now owners and breeders of purebred regis- tered livestock. A total of eighteen members exhibited livestock of crops in various shows, including the State Fair. The Club had two judging teams that com- peted in two state contests and in two county contests. They received a fine book for the club library for winning one of the contests. Other activities included the Corn Husk- ing Contest, Vaughn Hicks winning the local contest and placing third in the district. Ar- thur Cummins was first in both the local dairy judging contest and the local egg show. George Nelson won the sweepstakes and a fine silver medal at the Purdue Egg Show. Co-operative activities were the conserva- tion work and landscaping of the school and fair grounds. A feature of the Father and Son Banquet was the return of many of the Ag alumni for a general reunion and good time. The Club decided to give an award each year to the outstanding Ag-Senior. The award is based on agricultural achievements, citizen- ship, scholarship and related activities. Row li Miriam Hanlin, Mary Ellen Ronald, Martha Stephenson.

The addition of the following new members has contributed much to the size and balance of the orches- tra: Patricia Burgess and Wilbur Smith, sax- ophonesg Ruth McFadden, fiuteg and Lois Williams, drums. Delibes, Tschaikowsky, Von Suppe, and Berliaz are among the composers represented in their repertoire. The orchestra assisted other organizations by playing at the Junior and Senior plays, the Spring Pageant, the Masque and Wig plays, and the Commencement exercises. This year's work was climaxed by a spring concert in May. fl 1 D ESTX, The band, under the direction of Mrs. Sherry this year, enjoyed a successful season. Even before school opened last fall, they were playing in the grandstand at the Jay County Fair. They served in the American Legion Armistice Day celebration by marching in the parade and by giving a short concert at the services. With characteristic enthusiasm, they marched and played at all home ath- letic events, lending distinct color and at- mosphere to the games. To brighten the mood and to pep up school spirit, they also appeared at many pep sessions. D -31- ' is 5 f f--Q f 2 if i This year marks the second anniversary of the organization of the school choir and We are proud of its increase in numbers and in- terest. One of their major achievements Was the presentation of a Christmas cantata, The Wonder Child. Soloists were: Naomi Bos- worth, soprano, Pauline Snyder, altog Stan- ley Klopfenstein, tenor, and Preston Houk, bass. Other appearances were a program for Lincoln's birthday, Baccalaureate Service, and various Sunday church concerts. In ad- dition, the choir was again sent as one of Portland's representatives in the Eastern In- diana Music Festival at Muncie. New members added this year are Lydia Cline, Mary Ellen Ronald, Dortha Gene Smith, Leo Smith, and Ray Smith. With their usual zest and enthusiasm, the members of Girls' Chorus have considerably advanced their role of usefulness this year. Again they took charge of the Christmas caroling program in the halls, sang for Bac- calaureate, and participated in the Eastern Indiana Music Festival. Besides these ac- tivities, they were chosen to represent our high school with a varied program of music at the Girl Reserve Conference at Hagers- town. To accomplish these things, much hard study was involved. This was somewhat balanced by the addition of a most attrac- tive set of books, Singing Youth . The group also continued to enjoy a series of so- cial activities this year. H RU Row 1: Florence Cummins, Katherine Ron- ald, Emily Stanton, Euginia Taylor, Paul- ine Snyder, Miriam Gaunt.

JUNIOR PL This year in order to give more students the opportunity of appearing before the pub- lic, the Junior Class presented a comedy farce entitled For Pete's Sake , written by Jay Tobias, with a double cast of girls and a single cast of boys. One group gave it one night and the other, the next. Miss Nixon, assisted by Miss White and Miss Tharp, di- rected the play. The action took place in the home of Miss Sarah Pepperdine CAgnes Miller and Miriam Gauntj. Her nephew, Peter fJohn Reberj, and his friend, Bill QColwel1 Coldrenj, play- ing the masculine leads, kept the story mov- ing at a rapid pace. Miss Sarah, who left for a trip through the Holy Land, refused to rent her house to the Clarkstons, but Peter and Bill, planning to make some money, rent- ed the house to them and as a result got into hot water, since Miss Sarah unexpectedly decided to return. However, in the end, Peter succeeded in removing the Clarkstons and in winning the hand of Nadine fMartha Brown and Betty Weilerl while Bill had Peggy lCarol Gene Armstrong and Jane Ann Glasgowb, and Muggsy fMax Mckinleyb, his Malvina Blessed CMary Jane Stanley and Carita Laceyl. Other characters were: Mrs. Clarkston fMary Whipple and Virginia E1- derj, Dean Murglethorp QCharles Maysl, and the two jilted suitors, Banker Boliver CStan- ley Klopfensteinl and Dupont Darcy Uack O'Shaugnessyl . I A f . AY The Saturday Evening Ghost by Tom Taggart, instead of being a wierd and un- canny mystery play, proved to be one of the most amusing farces ever presented. Hiram Otis 1Preston Houk, Leo Smithj, a multi-millionaire American soap magnet, rents the ancient Canterville castle in Eng- land from Lord Canterville fRobert Ronald, Robert Pearsonj, its bankrupt owner. The Otis family, Mrs. Otis Uosephine Haldy, Viv- ian Beckerj, Virginia fMiriam Hanlin, Janet Bournej, and the twins Pet QJackie Skin- ner, Dorothea Jackj and Sonny-boy fDonald Aperj, are quite skeptical about the cast1e's being haunted even though the housekeeper, Mrs. Umney fJayne Pope, Reba Whitej and Lord Archibald CGray Paddock, John Mc- Keej swear that it is. As the plot progress- es, Virginia meets the ghost, Sir Simon de Canterville fRobert Ronald, Robert Pearsonj, who has been doomed to walk the earth on Saturday evenings, and falls in love with him. Sonnyboy and Pet make life, or should I say death, very miserable for Sir Simon. .l,NV SEIXHCD DJ? ..35.. maint F is In 9 , C if V . +R A A ,,,. .u N . ly . - A . ' .

In this scene we see the Editor, Janet Bourne, with a look of horror upon her face as a mass of debris sweeps down upon her. Dorothea Jack seems to be mentally recording events for the Calendar, but not a single joke can she invent, while Robert Pearson is saying What a swell shot if I only had my camera! Prayers for assistance in doing the Writeups of Faculty and Under- classmen are being offered by Jayne Pope. Helen Kwis, who does all the Typing, and Preston Houk, who edits the Sports Section, are not so much dismayed by the deluge, but Pauline Snyder finds keeping track of all Activities and Alumni a great strain upon her usually sunny disposition. Business Manager Charles Godfrey is meeting the emergency bravely enough, and his assistant Donald Aper is making a valiant effort to keep his head above the Waves. All the Senior Activities and Features are al- most too much for Eugenia Taylor to cope With, but a smile of Iiendish glee lights up the face of Mrs. Stevenson, the observer of Cand it must be said-sympathetic helper inj all our heroic efforts toward success. Today with the publication of this book, we have been washed ashore, a wiser and a sadder staff.

In comparison with the team we had last year, these fellows, Garrison, Mayo, McDaniel, and Holmes, were all light in weight and young in experience. The one touchdown of the year, made in our final game, seemed to show that our team was progress- ing. We can notice, too, that about five years ago we had the same kind of season and for the same reason-the boys were new at the game, but look at last year's record--one of the best. We hope that here as elsewhere history will repeat itself, and that next year the list of scores will show a little heavier in our favor. BASKET BALL Our basket ball team this year set a precedent from which they shall not depart in the future. They turned in the type of ball game that shows training-not the training of one season, but the training of years before. No more will we be caught with a team which must be trained in one season and for one season only. Our boys are get- ting fundamental training from the grades up, and this early train- ing of ball handling was evident in this year's team. We had this year ll victories and 10 losses. We succeeded in taking into camp Redkey three times, Ft. Recovery and Winchester twice, Burris of Muncie by forfeit, Pennville, Union City, and Madi- son. Losses were chalked up with Dunkirk, Decatur Catholic, Deca- tur Public, Madison, Union City, Central Catholic of Ft. Wayne, Bluffton, and Berne. Portland does not pick out easy teams to play, so in breaking even in our wins and losses we consider it a fairly successful season. Pep sessions this year were especially enthusiastic and noisy. Charles Godfrey presided and was never at a loss for a funny story appropriate to the occasion. With the three yell leaders, Miriam Gaunt, Mabel Mill, and Jane Ann Glasgow, each assembly call was a summons to hilarity and pep. BASEBALL The baseball season was the most successful ever, our team win- ning the rare distinction of being State Champs. Good work, boys, and more of it! TENNIS With the building of new tennis courts this spring, Portland High School will have a new sport on its schedule. Old tennis fans and newly converted ones are waiting impatiently for the cry, Ready, Serve! ..42- A,,ff.f.,.-...-..,-. .1-...L , . ity ,M-.-'X ,,:7gg:ggf:1j,1g:g,'f,-g,5,y',.i, . ,KJ 9-tf.,. i:?k, gunz- 'eliggvfnkikr fx. ,Wg cc ' :57i+'. q , FIT!!
