Not to the past which we reverence, or to the present in which we glory, but to the future in which we trust, we the class of 1938, offer our aspirations, talents, powers, without trepidation, we, the fearless two-hundred, consecrate our forces of perfection to making home, community, state, and nation even better places in which to love and live. Alive with the sense of promise and expectancy, we address our- selves to the Future. fie- if Applebee, Douglass, Glaser, Lindenberger, Smith Baumeister, Doyle, Grigsby, Middaugh, Stanley Beachum, Emery, Harrington, Mlddlewood, Suppiger Bridgham, Felton, Harrod, Moss, Waldron Buys, Finley, Haynes, Perigo, Wells Carolus, Foley, Kendall, Perry, Dunbar Congdon, Foncannon, Kittell, Schlabach COHOVEF, Fuller, Laws, Semlef Applehee, Gordon Beechum, Byrd .........

SIDNEY C. MITCHELL Superintendent Sidney C. Mitchell recently received high honors when an article appeared in the Survey Graphic explaining the origination and development of the Benton Harbor Plan of Correspondence Study. In part it reads as follows: Quote-The idea of the Ben- ton Harbor Plan struck Mr. Mitchell when he became principal of the high school in his home town, Benton Harbor. If he could get the co-operation of the corres- pondence schools, he thought, offering their vocation of courses to pupils who could not, would not, or should not go to college it might solve his education problem. Unquote. This was his plan, and he carried it out to the fullest extent, making the Benton Harbor High School widely known for its correspondence course. Mr. Mitchell is very much admired and respected by the student body. CHARLES A. SEMLER Mr. Charles A. Semler has been the principal of Ben- ton Harbor High School since 1925. He received his B. A. degree at Earlham College, his M. A. degree from the U. of Michigan, and has done graduate work in school administration at the University of Chicago. 'He, as the adviser of our Student Council, takes an active part in many school activities. Because of his deep interest in the students, his wholehearted cooperation, and his knowledge of their problems, he has won their respect and support. WE HONOR We, who have worked for three years of high school with Mr. Stanley, our adviser, honor him. We who have accepted his advice in our high school years admire his judgment. We who have scrubbed terraces for last year's junior-Senior Prom, cleaned up after school parties, nailed concession stands together, chosen Carnival Kings and Queens, and d'one general carnival work with him, respect his patience and perseverance. We who have had him as a friend may be parted from him as we go out into the world, but his friendship will forever be one of our sweetest memories as memories are collected from out of the past. To show our appreciation of his patience, kindness, advice, and friendship, we take this small way of saying thanks . Mr. Stanley, we, the class of ninteen thirty-eight honor you.

Wlllmeng SENIOR CLASS HISTORY The Senior Class of 1938 has had an eventful high school life since it first became a part of Benton Harbor High School. The Freshman Class, instead of entering Senior High School after graduating from the eighth grade, continued in the Junior High building, which took care of the seventh, eighth, and ninth grades. The Freshman Class was the leader in most of the social activities and sports in the ninth grade, one of the largest social events of the year being the ninth grade party sponsored by the Freshmen just before leaving Junior High. Just after the Sophomore Class entered High School, the following othcers were elected to lead the class: President, William Gridleyg Vice-president, Eleanor Mary Fletcherg Secretary, Minnie Arentg Treasurer, Robert Volk, Athletic Manager, William Bellows, Aldermen, Roy Elson and Joyce Anderson. The activities of the Sophomore Class consisted chiefly of participation in club work, inter- class athletics and social functions. The two most important social functions of the year were the Hallowe'en and St. Patrick's Day parties. Both proved successful and were attended by large crowds. Upon entering Senior High many of the students joined the bands and entered into the athletics of the school, where they proved themselves worthy of the recognition that many received throughout their high school days in both of these departments. In our Junior year the class of '38 was led by Roy Elson as Presidentg Paul Benke, Vice- presidentg Eloise Cunningham, Secretaryg Robert Stanford, Treasurerg Russell Patterson, Athletic Managerg Jeanne Tillstrom and Joyce Anderson, Board of Directors, George Walbridge, John Arent, Robert Albrecht and William Summerfelt, Aldermen. The class of '38 was the first to purchase class rings during their Junior year. The out- standing social event of the year was the annual Junior-Senior prom sponsored by the Junior Class. The party was held in the high school gym during the latter part of May. The Juniors decorated the auditorium and Filstrup Feld for the Baccalaureate services and graduation exercises which were held in June. The outstanding athletic event of the Junior boys was the defeat of the Seniors in the annual Junior-Senior fights, held behind the high school. During their Senior year Roy Elson was re-elected Presidentg Eloise Cunningham, Vice- president: Frances Willmeng, Secretary, Winifred Lerch, Treasurerg William Bellows and Betty Sunday. Board Members. The Seniors sponsored many successful parties throughout the year along with the annual Senior play, Fly Away Home , which was directed by Max E. Fuller, the drama- tics instructor in the high school. Our annual Bum Day and Skip Day provided much enter- tainment for the Seniors as well as the under-classmen in school. Throughout the high school days of the class of '38 they have been leaders in club-work, athletics, and social functions and have worked hard for the honor of their school. They sincerely hope this spirit will continue after they have gone, and new faces and personalities take their places in the leadership of Benton Harbor High School. rm 6'5- Q .

Now that we look back upon our freshman days, we partly realize what a trial we must have been to the teachers of Harbor High-four hundred green freshmen going around school in a sort of daze, wondering where to go next. It sounds comical now, but it wasn't then. We believe that we have our share, if not more than our share, of students in athletics, music, fbands, orchestra, and glee clubsj, clubs, and social doings. Although we might make a better showing on the honor roll list, almost all of us do our best. As seniors of Harbor High we hope to set good examples, that the underclass- men will strive to follow in our footsteps and that our teachers will remember us as industrious, ambitious, and peppy students.

SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY Benton Harbor High School always has a Sophomore Class, but not always such a happy, peppy one as the Class of l940. During its first year in the Senior High School, our class has made the most of its opportunity to gain recognition. Our representatives have made fine records in the music and athletic departments, and the class as a whole has maintained a high scholastic stand- ing throughout the year. Busy as we are with these activities, we are never too busy to show the juniors and seniors how to have a jolly good time, and our parties have been very successful. The Class Adviser, Mr. QBillj Perigo, has proved to be not only the best of coun- selors, but also a good friend to every member of the class. Early in October, Dick VanHoeven was unanimously elected president of the class. Other ollicers are: Dorothy jane Semler, vice-presidentg june Tauner, secretaryg jane Archer, treasurer, and William Ellett, sergeant-at-arms. , E EEEHBE HHH HHH fElEEEBEU 'HE EE f EBEEBEIEBHEEHHEHE' EflHEEE EERHHEHHlf QEEEEEI EE EEEEEE1 QEEEEHEBBE BRE Ei' 'EEEE E.BElHEBE!: 2 E NHEHHHB HEBREW HQBHEEBEEEEEEEHEEQ '6ElEE EEEEHEQEE1 QEEBEEBHEIHEEE HHH 'EEENE'EEHEEElEEm E EEEBEEBEBEH BEEN HBBEBBBEHEHEBEBgEE Q?HEE EHBHEHlgEEE + HIHEEEE EEBEpEEEBE E2 BREED EE BBHEE EfSHEEEBHEE5HQBE!

THE GIRLS' LEAGUE The Girls' League was organized for the purpose of uniting all the extraecurricu- lar activities in which high school girls participate. The League also aims to promote friendship among the girls, and to encourage loyalty to the school's ideal of character and conduct. Upon registration, every girl automatically becomes a member. At the monthly meetings of the League, entertaining and education programs are provided, Travel talks, fashion-shows, one-act plays, musicals and book reviews are presented by locally eminent club women, educators, and musicians. The Girls' League Council is made up of the four elected otlicers, the twenty- three Home Room Agents, and a faculty sponsor. This council meets at regular inter- vals, to discuss plans for the betterment of the League, its separate units, and any social oi welfare activities in which the Leagues assistance may prove helpful.

STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council, a group chosen by the student body at the annual spring election, takes an active part in the student government of Benton Harbor High School. Committees ap- pointed by the mayor take care of the chapel programs, dances and other matters. The carnival, an outstanding event of the year, was under council management. This year a new system of chosing hall police was introduced. Meetings are held once a week at which various problems are discussed. The Council con- sists of the Mayor, president of the councilg a Chief-of-policeg a Clerk, secretary of the council, and eleven aldermen-tive seniors, four juniors, and two sophomores.

Jane Archer, Richard Van Hoeven HI-Y HI-LIGHTS OF 1937-38 To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character: This is the purpose of the Hi-Y. Through this current year the members have been meeting at the 'Y' to discuss topics that concern not only the members but the entire com- munitv in an attempt to build better citizens. Some of these subjects were: crime, delinquency, and philosophical ideals. The club has sent four boys to the Older Boys' Conference, live student representatives to the Hi-Y Congress, and constructed tovs for the Good Fellows' Fund during the Christmas season. By participating in the club activities the members have faced problems that will enable them to adjust themselves better in social upheavals. This is the ultimate objective of the local group. The club regrets deeply that Mr. Lancaster moved to Grand Rapids. Ken was a friend of all and a great guiding force of the Hi-Y. THE GIRL RESERVES The Girl Reserves is a nation-wide organization sponsored by the Y.W.C.A. This year the Girl Reserves have had many well-planned meetings which consisted of interesting talks by promi- nent people of our community on subjects of vocational guidance, on the good use of leisure time, and on hobbies. Activities were enioyed in the Y pool, the gvmnasium, and the banquet hall. The capable guide and adviser of this group is Miss Lillian Waldron, who made all the girls welcome tothe Girl Reserves of Benton Harbor High School.

They also sold balloons and magic slates with the basketball schedule on them. The club sponsored games between the Has Beens and the Will Bes , and again between the Has Beens and the teachers. With the proceeds of these games together with the proceeds from their sales, the club was able to give a 'fswell banquet at the Peace Temple in honor of the team. Coach George Koegan, from Notre Dame, and Earl Brown, a former star and graduate of Benton Harbor in 1935, were the speakers. Mr. J. R. Perry was toastmaster. Movies were shown of a game between New York University and Notre Dame. SIGMA LAMBDA SIGMA Sigma Lambda Sigma, the senior literary society, was made up of sixteen girls this year. They met twice a month. At each of these meetings one member of the club reported on the books written by the author whom she chose to study. Frost bites were sold at school during the noon hour. The money received from these sales was used for the purchasing of new books which will be given to the library. The oflicers of the club are: President, Martha Farwellg Vice-president, Betty Lutz, Secre- tary, Mildred Gold, Treasurer, Ann Hopkins. The adviser is Miss Hazel Harrington. PROMETI-IEAN In 1936 Virginia Owen, with the advice and aid of Mrs. Lucy Haynes, organized Prome- thean to fill a long-felt need for a literary club open to all high school girls. Under the leadership of our past presidents-Beth Scott and Virginia Owen-Promethean has grown. In the beginning the club was composed of only four members, but it has increased its membership to nine. Each year new members are elected so that there are four seniors, three juniors, and two sophomores. This year Promethean has studied drama. From outside speakers, the students have become acquainted with the history of the theatre, the drama of the Greeks, the Shakespearean drama, and the modern stage. Through informal discussions on stage artists, playwrights, and current plays, they have gained a knowledge of the modern drama. In February, Promethean went to Chicago to see Stage Door, featuring Joan Bennett. Miss Grace Emery of the high school faculty is club adviser, and the officers are: Ann Hop- kins, presidentg Eloise Cunningham, secretary, and Mary Frances Granger, reporter. USHER CLUB Head Usher, Roy Elson, Assistant Head Usher, Betty Sunday, Adviser, Mr. Harrod. The Usher Club was organized in 1921 by Mr. Phillip Lovejoy, a member of the faculty at that time, for the purpose of selling tickets and ushering at all school events. This organization has gained a reputation for being one of the most outstanding clubs in the high school. Much credit for its success goes to Mr. Don J. Harrod, present adviser, through whose faithful efforts this reputation for the club has been achieved. At present the club has an enrollment of 60 members under the leadership of the head usher, Roy Elson. This year the club ushered at all football and basketball games, the operetta, the senior class play, the dramatics class play, and other entertainments sponsored by the high school. THE DEBATE TEAM The debate team, coached by Max Fuller, was the first one to represent Harbor High in five years. Though it had but one victory, the remarkable improvement of the members in their speak- ing ability more than justifies their claim to a successful season. Keith Lawton, George Hess, and Frances Karbadon upheld the affirmative side of the ques- tion, Resolved that the several states should adopt the unicameral system of legislature. Though defeated by St. joe and Niles, they emerged victorious over Buchanan. The negative, upheld by Lester Tacy, Stanley Derby, and Keith Lawton, lost three close de- cisions to Niles, Buchanan, and St. joe. CARNIVAL Roy Elson and Beverly Zebell presided as king and queen over the annual high-school carni- val which is one of the high lights of the school year. Two definite purposes are behind this gala affair. The Hrst, and probably the most impor- tant, is to raise money for future chapel programs. Among these were: Arthur Ponsford, areporterg Dr. Luther Goble, a scientist who experiments with radiumg and Edna Means, a dramatic reader. The second purpose, although of lesser importance, has its own yalue. All students' are not only allowed but expected to participate in the preparation of thecarnival. All shows, with the excep- tion of the main show, which is put on by professionals, are made up entirely of students who take pride in the carnival because they themselves put it on. Doc Applebee's show, which has grown to be a tradition, furnishes much umph to the carnival. Four senior students are chosen to be the chairmen of the carnival. These chairmen in turn pick their staff to help them supervise the shows, concessions, dancing, and other forms of enter- tainment. The carnival is much work, requires weeks of toil and headaches, but a merry time is always had by all. S RIG SISTERS Lrfl to Ix'1y1ht: ftup rmm Lutz. Lxmllxolrn, Hallman. Buren. Pep- pler. Granger.

The choir, which makes many public appearances each year, both in and out of school, met once a week for its rehearsals. Among the choir's several appearances this season was the Fall Music Festival early in December. Also, they sang special numbers in assembly for the program ofAChristmas carols. The choir made its last appearance on the Baccalaureate program at graduation time. THE BOYS' GLEE CLUB The Boys' Glee Club began their year's work under the capable direction of Miss Grace Congdon and the following ofhcers: Russell Patterson, presidentg and Donald Kuschel, librarian. The membership numbers forty, of whom Fifteen are seniors. A short time after the opening of school, work was begun on Kountz's Cantata, The Song of Man , a beautiful, dramatic, and effective number. It was used for the Annual Fall Music Fes- tival Concert and was greatly enhanced by the accompaniment of the high school orchestra and the new orgatron. After Christmas the club studied The Pirates of Penzance , a Gilbert and Sullivan light opera, which was presented on the seventeenth and eighteenth of March by the combined glee clubs. The Boys' Glee Club ably and lustily portrayed the parts of pirates and police, creating laughter and excitement throughout the whole performance, They are closing the year's work with special music for Class Night and Commencement.

The work includes craft work and the first essentials of practical play production. - Of course, the outstanding event of the first semester is the annual play. This year the Dramatics Class presented the play, Meet the Duchess, a comedy in three acts consisting of all the elements of dialect, of impersonations, and even a touch of tragedy, that make up a successful play. The plot was a very modern version of the Movie Cycle, centeri around the boarding house of Mrs. Perkins, played by Henrietta Schindler. All the characters,nEJr example: joy janu- ary, a Broadway chorus girl, played by Pauline Bubanovichg a converted professor portrayed effec- tively by Louis Harrisg a robust tragedian played by Graham Handy, a colored maid, by Doris Pul- leng and a former star of the stage, by Bette Collins, are all concerned in one way or another with the screen in Hollywood. Kate Calderwood and Mildred State portrayed realistically the situation of an ambitious Mother and Child prodigy of the Shirley Temple age. There was a clever impersona- tion of the Movie producer, Samuel Goldwyn, portrayed by Michell Rose. The star of the play, Eloise Cunningham, played the role of a newcomer to Hollywood, assisted by Joe Brezina, playing the part of Ronnie Ward, a scenario writer. During the rehearsing and production of the play, the students obtained much practical knowledge of stage settings and back stage essentials such as, lighting effects, scenery painting, and the general necessities. The duties of the prompter, property manager, house manager, advertising manager, and director were touched upon also. The second semester is devoted to Dramatics from the standpoint of literature. The history of drama, emphasizing the different periods from the early Greek and Roman drama, through the Middle Ages to the great Renaissance of the Elizabethan or Shakespearean period including some Modern drama, is carefully studied in regard to its relation to religion. Many of the outstanding plays of these diverse periods are read and discussed in class. , IANE ADDAMS CI-1-APTER NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY Benton Harbor High School has received its charter for a chapter in the National Honor Society for Secondary Schools. The National Honor Society is a National organization which was founded in 1922 for the purpose of creating an enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to promote leadership, and to develop character in the students of American Secondary Schools. A committee of students and faculty members wrote and submitted to the National head- quarters a constitution for the local chapter. This has been approved and the local chapter is known as the jane Addams Chapter of the National Honor Society. Students are eligible for membership in this Society who have an average grade of B or better for their high school careers and have attended the Benton Harbor High School for at least one year. The members are chosen from this grou , the final selection being made on the basis of service, leadership, and character. Five per cent of the 11A class may be chosen during the sixth semester, ten per cent of the 12B class the seventh semester, and a total of not more than fifteen per cent of the graduating class may be chosen as members. After being chosen, members are re- quired to maintain scholarship average until graduation and then become graduate members for life. It is hoped that the graduate members keep ever before them the ideal of helping to raise the scholarship of Benton Harbor High School. The faculty committee is now at work on the selection of the first group of seniors. This list had not been made public when the Greybric went to press. GIRLS' GLEE CLUB I X Left to Right: rtop row!

Originally, the Mariner Scouts, which is for older girls, had thirteen enrollments in the Benton Harlwor divisiont hut its memberships now numlwer twenty. Ships, not troops, claim the attention of Mariners. The Benton Harhor ship, for example, is c.1lletl The Mont'tzuinau-the name of the vessel upon which the founders of the city arrived from Chicago. Since this is the tirst Mariner organization in this vicinity, the name seems especially appropriate. The program that the girls follow is planned for those of tifteen years of age or over. They study different kinds of ships, parts of sailing vessels, lcnot tying, clouds, trade winds, and other matters pertaining to the sea. As much leisure time as possihle is spent singing quaint sea chants. Tales of daring men, rough and raging seas, and calm heautiful nights are brought to life again by the old seamen's songs. lfvery Mariner pursues a holwlwy: some make model hoatsg others make scrap hooks of vessels or whatever particularly interests them. All Mariner Scouts must pass the tenderfoot test and try to live up to the standards set hy the Girl Scouts of America.

Hobart, Muskegon, Grand Haven, and St, joseph. They entlnisiastically sold candy, pop, and hot dogs on all these occasions. The installation of a new score hoard in the gymnasium and the purchase of new suits for the cheerleaders are the club's special achievements for the season. As usual, they gave the annual football banquet in honor of the team, at Sonner Hall in the Contlregational Church. Mr. M. A. Kent. a coach of Northwestern University, was the speaker of the evening and showed pictures of Northwestern University. The Sisters also sponsored the cabaret at the annual high school carnival. They were for- tunate to have Miss Madeline Grigsby for adviser and Mrs. Lela Kittell as helper on special occasions. The otiicers were: Betty Sunday, president, Gretchen Reischke, vice president: Ann Hopkins, secretary, and Marion Peppler, treasurer. B. H. H. S. BUYS' BAND B. H. H. S. GIRLS' BAND B. H. H. S. ORCHESTRA B. H. H. S. BOYS' BAND The High School Boys' Band started the school year by playing for all the home games except two. At the St. joe game the boys' and girls' bands united and formed a mass band of 150 pieces. This year the band had a membership of eighty boys. In the middle of the football season Mr. Schlabach was called away. While he was gone George Walbridge practically took care of the band and worked out a drill himself. At a baton twirling contest in Lansing in january, George tied for first place. The band gave its annual con- cert on March twenty-fourth. Before school was out last spring seven soloists from the band went to Ann Arbor to par- ticipate in a music rating contest. Five superior ratings were awarded Benton Harbor contestants. Mr. Schlabach again conducted a summer band composed of both boys and girls. In August the summer band went to the Chicagoland Music Festival and won fourth place. Last spring the band went to the Holland Tulip Festival, and, as usual, also took part in the Blossom Week activities. The band also played at the commencement exercises held in Fil- strup Field. For a number of reasons the band did not participate in the Holland Tulip Festival this year. ' The band officers this year are as follows: President, Waldemar Firehammerg Vice-president, Robert Albrecht, Sec'y-Treas., Bill Gridley, Business Manager, Edward Troiferg Librarians, Bill Brown and Carle Temple, Horn Shiner, Dick Hill. GIRLS' BAND The outstanding event of the-Senior High School Girls' Band this season was its concert. The annual concert was given on February sixteenth under the direction of Mr. Suppiger. This year was Mr. Suppiger's first in Benton Harbor. His home was originally in St. Louis, Missouri, where he played clarinet and saxophone with the St. Louis Theatre Orchestra for a num- ber of years. He received his musical training at Illinois Wesleyan University at Bloomington, Illinois, and after his graduation he taught there. Prior to his coming to Benton Harbor, Mr. Suppiger taught harmony and band for a year at Grinnell College in Grinnell, Iowa. While at Grinnell' he played a clarinet concert by Mozart with the college orchestra, the orchestration of which was his own arrangement. The Girls' Band concert here included many arrangements by him. The band played for one football game last fall, the Hobart game. Last summer it went to Chicago to the International convention of Lions Clubs and placed high in competition. Benton Harbor's was the only all-girls' band at the convention. The membership this year included seventy-seven girls. Last spring the band marched in the Blossom Parade and took part in various other activities of Blossom Week. Throughout the year it took part in numerous celebrations and played on different occasions. The oflicers of the band are as follows: President, Vera Deanerg Vice-president, Eloise Cun- ningham, Secretary, Lois Ferrel, Treasurer, Nancy Filstrup. B. H. H. S. ORCHESTRA The High School Orchestra was one of the busiest organizations in school this year. In january it traveled to South Haven to give an exchange program, and later in the year it went to St. Joseph to give another exchange program. The orchestra gave its annual concert in May. For the last three years it had given its concert during Blossom Week and had made it free to the public. This year, however, because of other musical conflicts, the orchestra gave its concert independent of Blossom Week. One of the orchestra's most important activities this year was its participation in the annual Fall Music Festival. The orchestra and the boys' and girls' glee clubs presented a cantata entitled the Son of Man directed by Miss Congdon. In addition to the cantata the orchestra played two selections, The Procession of the Sardar, and the Dream Pantomime from Hansel and Gretel. A new organization has come out of the orchestra this year. It is the woodwind uintette composed of three members of the orchestra and two members of the faculty. The memllzers are Robert Albrecht, horny Charles Wilder, bassoong Robert Volk, oboe, Mr. Bridgham, flute, and Mr. Suppiger, clarinet. The quintette has played at South Haven, at Three Oaks and' here in the Fall Music Festival. Several members of the High School Orchestra belong to the Twin City Symphony Orchestra. They are Robert Albrecht, William Snyder, Charles Wilder, Leonard Zurakov, Ralph Clark, William Summerfelt, Keith Lawton, Eugene Nalepa, Keith Miller, and Robert Volk. 1.

BANDS TAKE HONORS AT NATIONAL CONTEST A fitting climax to a successful musical year was afforded Saturday, May 21, when both the Boys' and the Girls' Bands received first division championships at the National High School Band contest at Elkhart. The first division rating classes both bands as National Regional Drilling Champions. The Class A marching contest in which both hands were entered required that all contestants perform a specified set of rudiments, consisting of such movements as: countermarches, left and right obliques, column lefts and column rights, diminished and increased fronts, and various other types of maneuvers. Wliile this restriction made the contest a trifie less spectacular by eliminating the majority of the usual letter and figure formations, it proved to be even more interesting to both spectator and contestant because of the increased difiiculty of the performance. ln addition to the required movements, the bands were allowed so much time and credit for special drills. ln this field the Girls' Band formed revolving cogwheels and two Giant letters: B-H . The Boys' Band made a large sunrise formation and while standing played, The Wtmrld is Walitiiig for the Sunrise . Proof of the bands earning their awards was found plentifully on the comment sheets of the judges in which were listed the good and bad criticisms of the band being judged. It is inter- esting to note that each band was unanimously recommended for first division by all three judges. At the close of the judging, both Benton Harbor bands returned to the field and put on a combined drill in honor of Elkhart consisting of the letters E-L-K formed by the girls surrounded by a large heart outline by the boys. The Benton Harbor victory was made complete through the taking of first division in the twirling contest by George Walbridge, the Boys' Band drum major. Both bands will receive plaques and individual gold medals properly inscribed. A 'IIF IIHII IIL IIE 'Ill' Ill KI S er, Platt, Cutler. :front lYl1l'l 4 t'0At'llI'IN Im!! In Higlhlf lstumlmyll Glaser.

BENTON HARBOR WON 2 BENTON HARBOR LOST 7 With a patched lineu and Lady Luck playing against them in most of their games, our 1957 edition of the B.H.H.S. football team finished the season with a not too im ressive record. On the basis of games won and lost the season was almost a total loss, but the fgllowers of the Orange and Black need not fear that the 1957 Tigers were a disgrace to the proud records of former B. H. teams. Although playing under severe handicaps they never lost heart. They were named by many critics as the scrappiest, fighten'est team in the conference. True, they lost the majority of their lgirmes, but they went down lighting to the end in every one, never giving up until that last whistle ew. As an example of the sort of breaks our team got, we shall witness the Grand Haven game. Early in the game we had the ball on the Grand Haven 1 yard line. On the next play we went over but fumbled, and Grand Haven recovered. Result, no touchdown. In the third quarter our hardest blow of the season hit us, Phil Skuda, our star punter, was injured and had to leave the game. Skuda was out for the rest of the season. As a result we had no experienced punter. Grand Haven took advantage, blocked one of our punts, and went over for a score. Needless to say, we lost that game. The opening game of the season played in mud and rain saw the Tigers defeat Niles 6 to 0, but the following week St. Augustine, termed by sports writers as one of the state's strongest teams, tamed the Tigers and defeated them 14 to 0. On a lateral, Skuda to Reid, Reid galloped 70 yards to a touchdown against Hobart, an Indiana school. Skuda's drop kick for the extra point was good, and the Tigers defeated Hobart 7 to O. Coach Bill Moss's Tigers rose to what was probably their highest peak during the season even though they were defeated 19 to 0 at the hands of Muskegon. The Tigers played brilliant foot- ball, outgaining and outcharging the Muskies, but Mukegon's alertness spelled victory for them. To add insult to injury we lost to our friends from across the river by a score of 3 to 0 on Carver's field goal. That was the first time St. joseph had beaten us in 19 years. Due to the fact that the Tigers were riddled with injuries, they dropped their remaining three games tof Holland, Muskegon Hts., and Kalamazoo, but in each case they went down fighting. B FOOTBALL TEAM Ninteen letters were awarded by Coach Laws to the second team this year. This was a smaller number than usual since six promotions were made to the Varsity Squad during the season. The remaining material was only of fair calibre and made a much less impressive seasonal record than the Tiger Cubs of the last few years. Although the Cubs faced a somewhat tougher schedule this year in meeting some newcomers outside of our own league, such as The South Bend Central Cubs, St. Augustine of Kalamazoo, and Buchanan, they were able to hold their opponents to a margin of one touchdown. Their best games were played against St. john of Benton Harbor, Buchanan, South Bend Central, and St. Augustine. Some outstanding performances were turned in by Yops and Baldwin in their passing attack, by Mitchell in directing play, by Melvin Brown both as a lineman and later as a full-back, and by Bedunah, Wegner, Kennedy and Allis as capable linemen, All Conference Selections-First Team-Ireland.

The initial game was with a strong and favored Niles five, but the Harborites put up a good fighting game and came out on the long end of a 28 to 24 score. Whitright's scoring of 15 points and Skuda's guarding of Holmes, Niles' tall center, featured the Tiger attack. The following week Benton Harbor took an easy victory from Dowagiac 31 to 17. Elsner and Skuda, scoring 14 points between them, paced the Tigers. The orange and black five won its third straight game of the season and its first conference victory by defeating Muskegon Heights 25 to 18. Skuda's four field goals led the Harbor attack. Benton Harbor's inability to score in overtime resulted in a 25-20 downfall at the hands of Muskegon. It was a tough game for the Tigers to lose. Uncorking a second half offense that bewildered Grand Haven, Benton Harbor took a 28 to 25 victory. It was an inspiring comeback after the defeat at the hands of Muskegon. Whitright's 11 points from all angles of the floor placed Benton Harbor in the fore in the second half. The Tigers avenged a gridiron defeat by handing St. joseph a 36 to 19 licking. It was Ben- ton Harbor's game from start to Hnish as the Tigers handily outclassed and outplayed St. joseph. The game proved to be a field night for Elsner and Skuda. The night after the St. Joseph game Benton Harbor engaged Holland in a battle, but in the second half the Tigers felt the effects of the night before and could not cope with the whirlwind attack of Holland, led by their giant center, Van Dort. Holland won 34 to 27. After being snowed under by Kalamazoo 27 to 12, Benton Harbor showed a characteristic determination and defeated Muskegon Heights 32 to 21. Playing two aggressive games Benton Harbor defeated both Muskegon and Grand Haven. In the return tilt with St. joseph, the game was much closer than the Hrst, but Benton Harbor again showed the superiority of the two and defeated St. Joseph 26 to 22. Holland defeated Benton Harbor 25 to 22 and put the Tigers out of the conference race. Benton Harbor closed the season with a brilliant win over Kalamazoo and it also closed a very successful season for Coach Perigo's orange and black men.

The team won six games and lost eight which was considered a good showing. ln Radke, Clements. and Kinas, Coach Farnum developed three small but speedy players, who will be capable of hlling first team berths next season. Radke is a very shifty forward, able to get around any guard, and Kinas and Clements are two good ball handling guards. Others who will probably see service next year are: Griese and Marshall, centersg Peters, Henke, and Arlo Gassner. forwards: and Reid, Hosner, and Arno Gassner, guards. Radke led the team in scoring with a total of 76 points, followed closely by Peters and Kinas. The team as a whole made 323 points to its opponents 355 points.
