THE YEAR '39-'40 The Year '39-'40 reviews the .season and finds that it has been the most progressive and precedent break- ing in the short but colorful history of Washington High School. In every department, Scholastic, music, dramatic, and athletic, great advancement has been made, and has added to the rapidly growing tradi- tions of the school. Dividing the events according to the various departments the year saw: In the scholastic field Maxine Dhoore and Cath- erine Hallis became valedictorian and salutatorian: Martha Pieszak won the Latin medal and went on to Win first place in the St. Joseph County division of a state-wide Latin contest sponsored by Indiana Uni- versity. John Bencsics and Theodore Andrysziak won second place for a mural which they exhibited at a salon for high school students held at Notre Dame, and Mary Ann Janiczak, Betty Novatini, Al- fred Piechocki, and Charles Steinhofer carried on the work in debating begun last year. In the musical department the band, handsome in natty uniforms, appeared at all athletic events, staged a band concert, and marched four miles at the Benton Harbor Blo.ssom Festival. The Cantamus Club pre- sented Pirates of Penzance, a spring musicale, and was well represented in the North Central Chorus. In the Held of drama Mr. Chreist's Thespians presented The Bat, and Death Takes A Holiday. In athletics the football team rode over all oppo- sition to sweep city, Northern Indiana High School Conference, and state championships. The basket- ball team wound up a successful season by unsuccess- fully attempting the most suicidal schedule that has ever been seen in the Mishawaka tournament. At that, they eliminated Washington-Clay and Misha- waka, and ran Central sufficiently ragged that the Bears succumbed easily to Riley in the finals. Mr. Witucki took a wrestling team into N. I. H. S. C. competition for the first time in the school's history: the boys got a nice lot of exercise. As The Year goes to press the Panther baseballers are driving for their second consecutive N. I. H. S, C, championship, and have carried a winning streak through 29 consecutive games.
