A. while others re- main working in the home stations. an G. H. STONER Died Nov. 19, 1943 MAUDE V. DOUGLAS President MARVIN C. CAIN Treasurer LYNNET CASBON Secretary 5' 9' The technicians of station V. H. S. are known as the Board of Education and are appointed by the city council upon the recommendation of the mayor. The board at present is composed of one woman, Mrs. Maude V. Douglas, president, Mr. Marvin C. Cain, treasurer, and Mr. Lynnet Casbon, secretary. The latter was appointed to till the un- expired term of the late Dr. Gerald H. Stoner. Mrs. Douglas is completing her sixth year of service and Mr. Cain his fourth. These members sitting at the control panel select the engineers who are to plan and present the programs on the Green and White network. They provide the studio -the building-and see that it is kept in good repair. This body meets with the chief of the engineers, Mr. Roy B. Julian, Superintendent, on the second Tuesday of each month and lays plans for the broadcasts of the year. They try to keep the studio up-to-date by providing modern equipment and hiring engineers who can direct programs in all lines. After your high school course, then What? This is the question I want you to think about. You, the boys and girls of high school age, are the hope of our country. Either through your own ettorts or the good fortune of cir- cumstances, you are achieving cr high school education. You are a fortunate group. Out of your group will come ninety per cent of the leaders of our state cmd na- tion. In these times of great stress there are temptations to call you from your course. To urge you to grasp your present opportunity to secure knowledge and experience that will fit you tor the years ahead is the purpose of this mes- sage. MR. ROY B. IULIAN. ROY B. IULIAN Superintendent Um, PM I om proud to be the principal of the Valparaiso High School because of the respon- sibility and opportunity to be of greater ser- vice. I have great faith in the Youth of our nation as well as our student body, its ideals, traditions, and spirit. Student for student, you are as fine and capable as those from any other school. I believe in pupil participation, develop- ment of a wholesome personality, and a co- operative type of leadership, To that end, I am willing to dedicate myself and serve to the best of my ability. IOSPPH Ps. BROWN Primtliiul As the years come and go, I wish that you may enjoy your share of success and happir ness, and in that happiness I will find mine. Your friend, Mr. Joseph B.

' '3ff'f':rii'5 iZ 'ir ' i51f1'f193'gE9'?1e'FllrJ Announoers Prepare Radio Guide The script writers of the i944 Broadcast Edition of the yearbook began to gather talent and material in the spring of 1943. At the opening of the school term in Sep- tember 1943, the stars of the evening began to consider ways and means of present- ing and financing the programs for the 1943-'44 school year. At this same time, the stars tseniorsi were called together by the engineers and technicians and the prob- lems were presented to them. By unanimous vote it was decided to set the stage and prepare for this Broadcast Edition. Each pledged to give some of his time and talent and even money, if necessary, to see this project through. Each was made to realize that for the duration the book might have to be very different from previous yearbooks. The staff is endeavoring to show the entire school organization and its various activities throughout the different sections of the book. The first parading across the stage are all the stars .and second their activities and third their recrea- tional program. The cost of such a program as planned is approximately Sl,200. To finance this it was found necessary to raise the price of a book to 51.75 a copy. The rest of the money was made by selling such concessions as candy, milk, and ice cream at noon, and .-confections were sold after school and at basketball games, senior play and a gift from the Girl Reserves from their Vee Room evening. This work was directed by Miss Mabel Shelquist. The first big step toward broadcast programs was the taking of pictures of all the stars. Each member of the script cast then put in an average of an hour a day until the edition was finished and sent to the publishers. No special credit is given to the members of the script cast except an award which is granted to each member on the Monday of the last week of school. This year the following people will receive an award for their time and talent: Joseph Bozik, editor.: Victoria Lindberg, literary editor, Beverly Edwards, business manager, Helen Peck, girls' sport editor, Stanley Conner, boys' sport editor, Gordon LaTour, art. editor, Shirlee Hepner, activity editor, Leola Soliday, snap shot editor. Revvriters Record Studio Events Before practically every pupil in Valparaiso High School there passes in review the script program as prepared by a group of stars known as the Valpost Staff. Although this group is rather small if gathers and prepares articles about all 'of the events of school activities, expresses its opinion through editorials, and tries to record some of the lighter phases of happenings through the feature editorial. These stars are divided into two groups and must have one term's training in theory and writing before they assume an actual place on the staff. Many times, how- ever, some of the work of these pupils merit publication and is printed along with the work of the advanced pupils. The more advanced group or second term students prepare a program which appears every two weeks. This group along with its sponsor, Mrs. Emma Rausch Foor, is responsible not only for preparing these programs, but also for financing them. Advertising is sold to merchants. No out-of-town ads are solicited. The program itself costs fifty cents a year or thirty-five cents a semester. Subscriptions are sold by these same students through home rooms and the money is collected from each person by this same representative. This program is not to make money but to bring before the public all the activities of the school as they happen week by week. 1 This year because of paper shortage and lack of funds the paper was confined to four pages except for a special Christmas edition and the senior edition at the end of the year. The special Christmas number was sent to as many boys in the service whose addresses could be procured. The staff undertook to compile a list of names of the boys andhgirt oi V. H. 5. now in the service. ,These six hundred and ten names may be read in t is oo .

The Blue and White network presents to you the Girl Reserves known to every girl all over America and many of the girls in foreign countries as well. This group of girls formerly met on every other Thursday at eight thirty in the morning, but due to commando training now meets after school at four o'clock. Their sponsors are Miss Shauer, Miss Shelquist, Miss Miller, and Miss McGillicuddy. ln previous years, the girls were awarded chevrons and sweaters for earning a cer- tain number of points, Points could be earned by attending church, visiting the sick, selling Christmas seals on Saturday during the Christmas vacation, being an officer in the club, participating in the program, and being on the honor roll. For the duration the giving of these awards has been done away with because of needed vital material from which they are made. The induction of all new members is held in February with candlelight service. The Girl Reserves and Hi-Y are the only service organizations in the school. The annual party to welcome all new freshmen was given by the joint effort of the Hi-Y and Girl Reserves. XX t.giQ!f Hi-Y Fctiher and Son Banquet.

Hi-Y Un Air for Eighteen Years Your announcer calls to your attention a program which has been on station V. H. S. for eighteen consecutive years, sponsored by Mr. Ralph E. Schenck and recently assisted by Mr. Phillip Wells. This service organization outlines definite plans for a year's work. This station with the Blue and White network or Girl Reserves sponsors an annual party for the freshmen and new students. The other outstanding event of the year is the Hi-Y Father and Son banquet. This year due to the war and restriction of foods the dinner engagement was not kept. To finance Hi-Y activities the organization sells pencils, operates a bookstore, and has a check room at all of the home basketball games. Being a service organization, church attendance is encouraged among the mem- bers. Three times a year these boys meet as a body to attend one of the local churches, and each year in May are accompanied by their mothers for Mother's Day. Each year the club awards a courtesy medal to the boy and girl considered to be the most courteous by a vote of the faculty. The girl and boy chosen to be the most courteous last year was Jean Holt and Bryce Billings. .L 5 Commercial Relations Research Department- Seiemus Club Programs Follow Character Theme At eight thirty on every other Thursday morning, we bring you Program C C, better known as the Commercial Club through the courtesy of Miss Dessa M. Hudson. Your commentator will endeavor to give a preview of the year's activities. At the first meet- ing officers were elected by the thirty members. The theme chosen was Character Building. The only requirement to be a member is to have enrolled in a commercial subiect of any kind in high school. During the first semester such speakers as Mr. Curtis Rathburn and Mrs. Alma Krueger ap- peared, the former talked about Stuff of Which Champions are Made of, and the latter talked on Thanksgiving, The outstanding social event was the annual Christmas party which was held in the Central Junior High School on the night of December l6. The speaker was Mr. Burton Conkling, who told ci Christmas story, also other forms of entertainment were enjoyed. Every year on award day Miss Hudson presents to t he two most outstanding members a medal for their work. The two to receive it last year were Robert Algrim and Mary Ellen Pillard.

Sciemus Hour Aids Research For the last word in the latest scientific developments be sure to tune in the Sciemus Hour every other Friday at eight thirty-two in the morning. For many years the consulting technician, Mr. C. O. Pauley, has guided the footsteps of the science enthusiasts in many and varied fields. Early in its history Sciemus became a member of the Indiana Junior Academy of Science and since then has maintained its membership. By experiments and talks he has promoted a scientific interest in life, and many of his stu- dents have proved to be geniuses in this field. For more up-to-date facts on science, local noted speakers were called in and noted professors from the Valparaiso University came and enlightened these scientific minded people. Every year the Bausch Lomb award is given to the student who has proved himself outstand- ing and has accomplished what the little medal pin signified. The student who merited this pin and fulfilled all expectations was Bryce Billings.

Artis Q' S For your evening's entertainment we bring you the famous actors and actresses, The Foot- light Masqueradersn of the Valparaiso High School. Three times each year these stars are able to entertain you with one of their outstanding plays. The war has had its influence in high school, and this club has felt the shortage of man and woman power because of the required commando training. Boys have felt the need of special science work and have had little time for dramatics. However, the director, Mr. Burton L. Conkling, girls, and a few boys have worked throughout the entire year and were able to present several plays among which were Grandma Pulls The String and Trial By Moonlight. In addition to play acting the club was given instructions in make-up, voice, posture, and all things necessary for an actor or actress. Actual experience was given when making-up operetta and play casts. For several years there has been no class in dramatics as a part of the regular curriculum, but this club has worked without school credit merely for the enjoyment. Each year awards are given on the regular award day to those most outstanding during the year. Last year Henry Pahl and Mary Helen Thrun merited this honor.. ts Prepare Dramatic I-lighli ht is i AIRPLANE CLUB Row l, Bottom: Inhn lialo, Ttonneth Dale, Earl Uban, Arthur Willing, lamps Trump, Donald Handschy.

Network Station V.H.S. is always striving to offer those who are connected with the studio all possible advantages of worth while programs. One of the newest of these to be given a clear channel ev- ery other Thursday morning at 8:32 is the Airplane Club. The technical adviser is Mr. Kenneth Pifer, and his interest is airplanes. The boys belonging to this organization have been handicapped by lack of materials and a place to meet. Most of the meetings used to be held in the gymnasium, but commando classes have taken over, and the air minded boys have had no regular meeting place. Because of restrictions on materials, such as rubber and balsa wood, this group has had to give up extensive building of planes. Last year they were among the honor students to build model planes for the government and ninety-five boys were given special recognition for their work. Since they could not continue with this work, they have been studying the theory of flight, through discussions, lectures, and moving pictures. A study has been made of various types of planes such as the new type air-jet model, rocket models and proposed post war models. Morris Anderson, V.l-l.S. student told of actually flying. Members of this club do not receive credit, the only reward is the joy they get from the work. There are no dues, but the boys voluntarily gave money and purchased some magazines relative to their study. The Vocational Club, a new organization in September l943, discontinued its meetings be- cause its founder Mr. Harry Roberts was called into service before the boys were able to carry on alone. It is hoped that next year this group can make a new start. 35 -- w:,.,1ismw5W!,. .M , fawavifv . . . 1- r . Choral Artists Sing tor Station V. l-l. S. The all girl chorus and the choir of mixed voices come to you on the air four times each week at 8:15 to rehearse music for special broadcasts over this and neighboring networks. Their director, Mrs. Mary Myers, selects the music for all programs. For those who enjoy the finer and more enduring types of music this program furnishes forty-tive minutes of good entertainment. Some of the special programs during the year were: The Great Assembly Line sung by mixed voices at the Porter County Music festival. This is a patriotic production, the climax of which came when Robert Lemster dressed as Uncle Sam distributed bonds l?l to those in the audience. These forty-five singers also participated in the all county chorus which sang Land of Hope and Glory under the direction ot Mr. George Myers. Some other appearances were at the city P.T.A. meetings and at Wednesday morning assemblies. From this group eight boys and girls: Robert Wiencken, Robert Lemster, Robert Noonan, John Delworth, Anna Combis, Jane Kohler, Priscilla Palmer, and Marion Gold, went caroling on the Friday morning of the Christmas vacation. They visited all of the grade buildings andthe hospital. In the high school they sang in all ofthe halls so they could be heard over the entire building. At the end of the year 'awards are given to those who have done outstanding work, throughout the year. Those who received these awards last year were: Priscilla Palmer, Jane Kohler, Belva Jo Keene, Marion McKibben, Angeline Polite, Marcella Thorpe, Doris Wright, Marion Gold, Martharuth Thomas, Danna Zeller, Lucille Dean, Josephine Makovsky, Betty Collins, Anna Combis, Robert Noonan, Otto Loeffler, James Spence, Robert Reed, Wayne McClellan, Donald Harmon, Robert Lernster, Frank Lansdowne, John Marquardt, Jack Hildreth, Theodore Weichert.

Studio Musicians Uncle N ln the absence of Mr. Harold Rogers, music maestro of station V.l'l.S., Mr. Wilford Perigo came to take charge of instrumental music, because the government saw fit to take the former and release the latter from his services in the marines. The officers of the band were chosen by the retiring senior officers of the band in the spring of i9-43. The new officers took their places in offices in the fall of the year. This group gave a public concert in the Central School Gymnasium lust before Mr. Rogers left. These musicians marched and played at football and basketball games during the year. Virginia Lamb served as majorette, and the last two years the four twirlers have been Lois Ashton, Doris Wright, Gail Keesling, and Doris Bochtler.

Council Ctters Stars Entertainment As we turn on the receiving set to station V. H. S. we listen to the newest program on this wave length, sponsored by talent from the students and directed by two technicians, Miss Mabel Shelquist and Mr. Claude Pauley. When first discussed this program took the form at a student council. This idea was not so favorably received by the engineers because of lack of experience, but the group was permitted to organize and present the idea of a Recreational Council. The promoters accepted this change and organized a group composed of representatives from each class. Each year now there are five seniors, five juniors, four sophomores, and three freshmen. This council sponsors school dances-one given for the benefit of the Valenian, another was the Valentine dance. These young people also take charge and plan school parties. The money that was necessary to finance this project was raised by selling pennants, pins, and through donations. Every Wednesday noon from l2:2O to l2:5O, it you tune in, you can hear the one year old swing band, organized by Bill Morthland, and the newly discovered blues singer, Anna Combis. All high school pupils can dance for this short period once a week. There are also many students who come just to hear this beautiful swing and sway music. 39 Station V. H. S.

This program is brought to you yearly through the courtesy of the seniors of Valpo High, over station V.H.S. Green and White Network. With the coming of each school year, all of the sports-minded students turn to football at the high school located at Valparaiso. This year's schedule consisted of eight games-half at home and half away. Approximately fifty Viking veterans and newcomers took to the gridiron two weeks before school opened. The first game was with the Crown P'oint Bull Dogs on Boucher Field. After the smoke and dust had cleared, the Crown Pointmen were on top by a I2-7 margin, however the small Viking men showed up much better than was expected. The Green and White's score came when a pass was intercepted in the end zone. Valpo journeyed to Griffith for the next encounter. Here they scored again, but not before the Panthers compiled a total of twenty-five points. George Ball completed six passes in succes- sion, and the last was for a touchdown to Charles Van Ness. The next game was played on the Valpo gridiron against Michigan City. The tilt ended with the Vikings on the short end of a 30-O count. The Vikings went to Rensselaer with high hopes of bringing back a victory from the under-rated Rennselaer eleven, but it couldn't be done. The closest that the Vikings ever came to scoring was at the time they put the ball on the three yard line, but the gun ended the game with Rensselaer taking the game by a 7-O score. Finding themselves playing the strongest team of the season the Vik- ings were helpless against the LaPorte Slicers. Valpo out-played the Hobart Brickies for fifty-eight minutes of their first game, but those other two minutes were long enough for Hobart to make six points and also win the game. The next game was the best of the season as far as Valpo was con- cerned. Lowell men invaded the Viking field and drew forth a loss. Barney Woycik starred in this game with his continual line plunging. The score showed, Valpo 25, Lowell l3. The last game of the season was played at Hobart on the Brickie's B.,y,- physical Director Curtil Rathburn 46 Football Reserves Flow I, Bottom: Richard McDaniel, Iames Wall, Steven Thompson, Howard Chumley, Gene Shannon, Roy Cochran, Leo Noonan.

Again Valpo met defeat only by eight points in a very hard fought contest. The Vikings fought hard to win the last game of the season, but their attempts were futile. Now your sport's announcer takes you back to the studio for station identification. This is station V.H.S. at 8:00 P. M. Valparaiso watch time. The Valparaiso Reserves played three games, two home and one away. Jliiqe first game was here with the Junior Hobart team. The game resulted in a l2-O loss for i ings. The next game was with LaPorte also at Valpo. The Vikings were white-washed in this con- but still they fought bravely. The next game was again with Hobart, only at Hobart this time. Valpo lost the third and last game to the Brickie Reserves. Six of the players on the first team will leave the V.H.S. network in May, most of them to play on a larger team, Uncle Sam's. These boys are: Bill Black, Gene Gray, Gordon LaTour, George Ball, Dan Downing, Charles the test, Van Ness. 1943 FOOTBALL SCHEDULE Valparaiso 7 Crown Point Valparaiso 7 Griffith Valparaiso 0 Michigan City Valparaiso O Rensselaer Valparaiso 0 LaPorte Valparasio O Hobart Valparaiso 25 Lowell Valparaiso 6 Hobart RESERVE SCHEDULE i Valparaiso 0 Hobart Phillip wen- Valparaiso a orte ' 0 L P I-'nghmgn Couch Valparaiso 0 Hobart SM ' A-.

This broadcast is brought to you through the courtesy ot the seniors ot Valpo High School over Station V.l-l.S. The Green and White thinlies competed in thirteen events, taking top notch honors in all ex- cept the Gary Sectional where the Vikings were nosed out by U5 of a point. Some ot the records were broken during the season and Paul Thune broke the high jump record for Valparaiso High School, but some one else holds the state record from another school. The records that were broken are: the pole vault, by Bruce Crockett, the halt mile relay, com- posed ot William Fraser, Richard Smith, Robert Blackney, and Robert Schumacker, the shot put by George Doelling, and Paul Thune's high jump record.

Now we bring you G.A.A. news over station V.H.S. through the courtesy of the seniors. Good morning everybody. We hope everyone is feeling sporty because we're bringing to you the sports stories of girls in Valparaiso High School. The first thing we saw this year were the girls on the soccer field kicking the ball. Miss Bower introduced speedball instead of soccer. Frances Jacobs, chairman of this sport, together with Miss Bower selected captains and teams. We then saw the seniors emerge as victors. As we looked down into Boucher Gym, we saw Dorothy Becker leading the girls forth onto the volleyball courts. After team three won the round robin tournament, the class teams came on and, the sophomores won. Above the noise of whistles and dribbling basketballs one could hear the voice of Betty Jungjohan giving a few rules to the A and B teams. There were five A teams and four B teams. Team A and B won the round robin and took the basketball title. We interrupt this program now to announce the winner of the G.A.A. cup, Miss Betty Fra- zier, also the president of G.A.A. during the 1942-1943 Year. Taking you back to the spring of 1943, we see softball, the lost major sport of the year. Miss Bower and chairman, Helen Peck, chose 8 baseball teams. Switching stations, we bring to you the minor sports, archery and tumbling. Archery, held in the fall, was headed by Nancy Van Ness, and tumbling come while basketball was being played and was headed by chairman, Joan Stinchfield. G.A.A. JR. SR.

MQ., 'Nm X .X Major, Minor Softball, the last major sport of the year, is looked forward to by many G.A.A. members as an opportunity to exercise out- of-doors. A group of enthusiasts gather around for last minute instructions. Two fields are used so that more than one game may be played at one time. Four modern William Tells, Darlene Yazel, Barbara Scribner, Victoria Lindberg, and Lucille Dean, try their luck at scoring a bull's-eye an the straw target. Nancy Van- Ness, chairman of the sport, was high point man. The girls come out for this sport to practice and earn points. With Dody Day at the bat, and Marge Crosby catching, the team starts a game of the round robin tournaments. The teams are chosen by the sponsor, Miss Doris Bower, and the chairman of the sport. After the round robin, class teams are formed and classes compete against each other. Betty Blachly, one of the noonday- league chairman, tries her skill at making a ringer. The girls didn't seem to be so inter- ested in this activity as they usually are. Since no one signed up for health ball, it was taken off the schedule. Girls practice the knee and shoulder stand, one of the twenty-four stunts out of twenty-five they have to pass before being able to get on the A team or twenty-one out of twenty-five for the B team. Joan Stinch- field was chairman of tumbling this year. Sports Activities Miss Bower gives instructions to Marge Crosby and her associates just before a big game is to be started. Helen Peck, who was the head of softball, the last major sport of the season, reported that about sev- enty-nine girls signed up for it and eight teams were formed. Marian Gold, better known as Red finds her position on the side lines and pre- pares to throw the ball in bounds during a game of speed ball. Every year class teams are formed and these compete against one another in round robin tournaments. Fran- ces Jacobs was head of this sport. She winds up for a throw could de- scribe this scene as Victoria Lindberg, presi- dent of G.A.A., prepares to spin the ball to the batter. This is played when the turn of the tide comes and the fall soccer field is used as a baseball field, the only thing missing is a grandstand. Girls join in a scramble over an un- seen object. The object is, however, a ball which is really there but can't be seen for feet. This sport is speedball which is played in the fall of every year, class teams partic- ipating in the yearly round robin tourna- ments. Donna Gustafson prepares to kick the ball to start off a game of speedball. For- wards pay great attention to the ball so they can kick it to their end of the field and make a goal. Valley ball is the follow-up of speedball, but it is played indoors.
