ALIEN COUNTY PUBLIC LIBRARY 833 01849 2584 GC 977.201 ADI BEQ 1942 OUR YESTERDAYS 1942 I THE YEAR 1942 At Bertie High School OUR YESTERDAYS Published b ) THE SENIOR CLASS Berne, Indiana PREFACE • • • As graduates, we seek more distant horizons, and our high school career lies behind us ... a chain of memories . . . many happy, some triumphant, a few tinged with sadness. In this book we have tried to bind those memories together in a tangible and lasting form. If this bock can help us remember those triumphs and defeats that have resulted in experience, and ultimately character, it will more than justify its publication. May you, in the years to come, leaf through these pages of “Our Yesterdays” and recall this school year with the oft-quoted phrase, “I'll never forget.” Two THE TEACHERS I KNEW Administration EARL M.

To a woman whose administrative ability and ceaseless efforts have contributed to the upbuilding of Berne High School. . . . To a woman whose character and lofty ideals have ever been lived before us. ... To a woman whose interest and guidance have won the respect and confidence of both students and faculty. ... To this woman, Miss Caroline I. Hirschy, Principal of Berne High School, we sincerely dedicate this volume of “Our Yesterdays.” Three Berne high school has received the high honor of admission to the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, the recognized school rating organization of the Middle West. Admission to the North Central Association is granted after an extensive inquiry into the academic standards of a school. Indiana high schools now recognized by the Association number 158, eight having been admitted at the Association’s recent annual meeting in Chicago. The listing of any high school by the North Central Association means that it has met rigid requirements which testify to the quality of work done by the administrators and teaching staff of that high school. The admission also involves the responsibility of carrying on work at that level. We are all very proud of this honor which has been bestowed on our school this year.

Thirteen FOUR YEARS IN REVIEW Now that we, the class of ’42, have reached that time when we are the all-important seniors, we look back at our years of lesser importance and recall the days when we were “scared freshies.” It was then that Carmen Lehman as our president led us through our first trying year, aided by Bill Emick as our vice president, Ardus Gene Sprunger as secretary, and Howard Baumgartner as treasurer. That year we held a party in the old schoolhouse, on March 10, and what a time we had The decorations were carried out in St. Patricks Day motif. At the beginning of our second year we felt quite grown up, for we had the freshies to look down upon. We strode through the halls of B. H. S. with ease and assurance, never going to the wrong classrooms or falling down the stairs. Ronald Lehman was our president that year, with Ardus Gene Sprunger, vice president; Betty Mae Habegger, secretary; and Howard Baumgartner, treasurer. We were juniors—upperclassmen, at last! We were coming into our own! Our class play, “Welcome Home, Jimmy,” given October 22, was a real success, as was evidenced by the hearty applause of those who attended. We entertained the seniors at the junior-senior reception which was the climax of our social life that year. Then the class of ’41 left us and we reigned supreme as the seniors of '42 with Margaret Allspaw as president, Lois Lehman as vice president, Phyllis Sprunger as secretary, and Carmen Lehman as treasurer. The year was filled with many memories for us all: having our senior pictures taken, our trip to Indianapolis, attending musical contests, editing this annual, and the many other things that go with graduation. Our senior class play, “June Mad,” presented on April 17, gave us a chance to forget our dignity once more and re-act our days of youth. Although we are glad that we have progressed this far in the world, we are sorry to break the associations that have been so dear to us.

Fifteen JUNIORS NEVER LACK PEP AND ORIGINALITY CLASS OFFICERS Betty Moser, Charlotte Moser, Cliff Habegger, and Vaughn Schindler. At the beginning of the school year this class having fifty-two members elected Clifton Habegger as president, Vaughn Schindler as vice president, Betty Moser as secretary, and Charlotte Moser as treasurer. This class has been active throughout the school year. October 31 the Juniors presented the play “Foot Loose” which was thoroughly enjoyed and praised by a large crowd. At the beginning of December the juniors began sporting their shiny new rings. At last they had proof of their upperclassman age! The juniors were hosts to the seniors at a very lovely reception in the high school gym, May 8. The good work of this class put their reception down as one of the finest in the history of B. H. S. This concludes their activities as juniors. Now they are looking forward to the climax of high school—the Senior year—with bated breath, bright eyes, and high resolve. First Row: Harry Luginbill.

When freshmen, the class elected Richard Lehman as president. Hazel Nyffeler as vice president, Willa Mae Moser as secretary, and Robert Liechty as treasurer. They participated in a party given for the high school in the high school gym. This took the place of a class party. The second year the officers were Wayne Stuckey, president; Opal Sprunger, vice president; Thomas Sprunger. secretary; and Stanley Girod, treasurer. We know that next year will find them able to shoulder mere and more of the school's outside activities, for next year they will be juniors. CLASS OFFICERS Opal Spi unger, Thomas Sprunger, Stanley Girod. and Wayne Stuckey. SOPHISTICATED SOPHOMORES ARE ADVANCING RAPIDLY Seventeen FRESHMEN FINALLY COME INTO THEIR OWN CLASS OFFICERS Geraldine Gerig, G 1 e n n a Sprunger, Merlin Inniger, and Elbert Stuckey. Oh, my goodness! It seems that they get smaller every year. The freshies, of course! The little, blushing clockwatchers wander around aim- ess y through B. H. S. for a year before they are relieved of their green robes. Whether it’s the modern age or not, we’ll never know, but some fiery spark has touched this class of '45 to make them more ambitious than the usual first year class. They are led by Merlin Inniger as president, Geraldine Gerig as vice president, Elbert Stuckey as secretary, and Glenna Sprunger as treasurer. We feel confident, though, that there are those in this membership who will one day be among the leaders of the school. “Time ripens all things. No man is born wise.” Third Row: Betty Stauffer.

Twenty-two THE GAMES I SAW Athletics CHEER LEADERS Merlin Stucky Isabel Schug Thomas Sprunger FIGHT, TEAM, FIGHT! The Bears opened the ’41-’42 season very optimistically, journeyed to Hartford Township for the opening game, and got the scare of their lives—only winning the game by two points on a shot from the field in the closing seconds of play. This settled them down and they were off on a five-game winning streak which was snapped by Decatur. Except for a brief mid-season letdown, the Bears continued their winning ways down to the final game of the season when Decatur again nosed them cut 35-32. High lights of the season— I— Victories over Bluffton and Emerson of Gary by a total of three points. II— Overcoming a sixteen-point handicap with eleven minutes of the game remaining against Monroe in the Sectional. III— A 4th quarter burst of nineteen points to down Winchester 48-39. The Bears finished the season with 14 games won and 8 lost. This record was made against schools of a much larger enrollment than Berne. L. L. GLENDENING, Coach—Better known as “Lakie.” Only his second year with us, but what a year! He certainly deserves all the praise we can give him. Through him, our boys have developed teamwork; and have learned the true purpose of athletics—to play the game for all there is in it. He has shown skill in fundamentals and handling of players. His teams have had excellent records in all sports. HOWARD BAUMGARTNER. Captain-One of our two four-year men, a steady dependable guard. A particularly gocd “feeder” due to his ability to handle the ball well and think quickly. “Bummy” was elected captain of the team by the boys— a popular player. He was a hard worker and played the game for all it is worth—to win, fairly and squarely.—L. L. G. EARL HABEGGER—“Hobby,” the other half of our two four-year men. A lover of the fast break style play. With the best when it comes to rebounding. A tough boy on the basketball court because he can not only score with the highest but can be as- signed to the opponent’s high scorer and hold him scoreless. A real forward in every sense of the word.—L. L. G. JAMES GOODIN—“Jim,” a senior, playing his first year on the varsity. Came up from the Cubs as a dependable guard. Hasn’t disappointed anyone. Has shown as much improvement as any man on the squad. Good on set shots and can come through at the opportune time. Worth his “salt” to any coach.—L. L. G. BILL EMICK—“Doc.” to the boys. First year on the varsity. Particularly strong on rebound work under Berne’s basket. A good pivot man. Can feed as well as score from that position. 11 is long reach has been verv embarrassing to many opponents. —L. L. G. RAYMOND MAZELIN—“Maz” has lacked experience, but when it comes to “scrap” he's there. Although he didn’t get to see as much action as some of the others, his spirit helped the boys win many games.— L. L. G. Twenty-four CLIFTON HABEGGER — “Cliffy,” a veteran guard with enough scrap for three fellows his size—a “pepper-upper type of player. Well liked by the fans and players. A strong defensive man who can score when the points are needed. He’ll be a mainstay for the Bears next year. JOHN SPRUNGER — “Jchnny” has played two years with the Bears and is a forward to make any coach's heart glad. Can shoot and guard. Will be of much value to the Bears next year. What he lacks in size he more than makes up in speed, cleverness, and “fight.” LESTER HABEGGER—“Les,” the type of player a coach likes to work with—conscientious, hard-working and cooperative. A good team man. Can be counted on to be “in the game” all of the time. Plays forward and plays it well. Much will be heard from him next year. RICHARD LEHMAN—“Dick,” a sophomore this year proved very valuable to the team. His clever cne-handed shots proved a thorn in the side of many of his opponents. Dick's future locks very bright and we know with this year’s experience as a varsity player he will be one of the main-stavs of the Bears the next two years. ROGER FLUECKIGER—“Saddle” is one of the best shots the Bears have had for many years. Also a gcod defensive player. Many times called up from the Cubs to handle a small, fast opponent. He does his work well. Prediction: A bright basketball future for “Sad.” JAMES BIXLER—“Bix,” our manager, has proven himself an asset to the athletic team of Berne High. His work is unsung and unpraised. He takes his basketball seriously and is in there “pitching” for the boys and school all the time. FIRST TEAM Roger Flueckiger. James Goodin. Cliff Habegger.

THE CUBS Berne’s second team this year was probably the smallest cne in the history of the school; nevertheless they have held their own against tough competition and tougher players. The Cubs are a scrappy outfit and usually gave the fans their money’s worth. They make up in clever ball handling, fight, and brains what they lack in size. Most of these boys are freshmen and sophomores, and in a couple cf years they will give their opponents plenty of headaches. The Cubs will send several good players up to the varsity next year. Although several of the boys did not see much action in the games they may develop into good players within a year or two. Their training and the fact that they have been growing steadily will be of great help in the future. The Cubs were badly out-sized in height and weight in most of their games this year, but when the smoke of battle had cleared the fans were satisfied with a win or the fact that the Cubs had fought to the end. Twenty-six CASEY'S AT THE BAT The B. H. S. baseball team concluded the season of seven games with the fine record of five wins and two losses—both losses coming by way of the New Haven Bulldogs with a one-run margin in each game. The Bears’ victories were at the expense of the Bryant Owls, Wren Eagles, and the Hartford City Airdales. The double victory over the Airdales was a noteworthy achievement in the sense that it was the first time for this in the Bears’ history. The Berne team was composed of: Infielders- Roger Flueckiger, Dick Lehman, Gaylord Stuckey, Wayne Stuckey. Bill Emick. Howard Baumgartner. Earl Habegger. Bob Liechtv, and Jim McCrory; Outfielders—Jim Goodin. Les Habegger. Ray Mazelin, Elbert Stuckey, and John Sprunger. Hurling for the Bears were Dick Lehman, who also lead the team ir. hitting, Roger Flueckiger, and Gaylord Stuckey. BASEBALL TEAM First Row—Elbert Stuckey. Wayne Stuckey. James Goodin. James McCrory, and Roger Flueckiger. Second Row—Earl Habegger. Raymond Mazelin. Bill Emick. Howard Baumgartner. Dick Lehman, and James Bixler. Manager. The Bears have a well balanced team with plenty of offensive power and a good defense.

This annual has not only received the undivided attention of Lois Lehman, but it also represents the efforts and ideas of twelve ether loyal staff members and the faculty sponsor, Mr. Webb. Of course, with thirteen high school students on the staff, it will be realized that their meetings were not always the scene of quiet, well-organized industry. Pet theories sometimes clashed, but the best of times were had while the pages of this book were being produced. The staff completed this series of pictures and memos of “I’ll Never Forget” with the hope that it might keep the images of Berne High School ever vivid in your minds.

PLAY, FIDDLES, PLAY Last spring the orchestra received a first division rating at the National Contest held at Flint, Michigan. The school was made very happy because it was the only orchestra in Class C to receive first. The orchestra from North Manchester College gave a joint concert with the Berne High School Orchestra in the school gymnasium last spring. The committee from the North Central Association stated that our strong, well-balanced musical department is one of the outstanding departments of the curricula. During the past two years, the school has bought seme interesting instruments: a baritone saxophone, a bass clarinet, a set of tvmpani, two ‘cellos, and three violas.

Good Will Toward Men” served as a very appropriate theme for the second Arena program. The third Arena program gave us a glimpse of what goes on “Behind the Mike.” The program was complete with two microphones, a station and a commercial announcer, a studio pianist, a studio band, and the 15-minute time signals. The last Arena program featured “Head-lines of the Hour.” Professor “Know-It-All” was visiting Watts College, gathering information for his bock on the Second World War. Sketches on the present war heroes were given and some musical selections were enjoyed. The Alumni Loving Cup was awarded to the Arena Society this year.

Mervyn Roberts Mr. Harris Julie Harris Howard Baumgartner Harold Nussbaum Virginia Heller Adrian Lehman Howard Kennel Margaret Allspaw Miss Beth Blue The story concerns Penny Wood and Chuck Harris, the boy next door, as they go about the frequently difficult, but always amusing business of growing up. When Penny’s Uncle Mervyn, only five years older than she, brings Roger Van Vleck. a senior, home from college, she forgets to be a man-hater and succumbs to an attack of puppy love which is ten degrees worse than measles. In her efforts to make herself attractive to the fascinating Roger, she almost disrupts two families, but the discovery that Roger is doublecrossing Mervyn by trying to steal his girl, brings her back to normal, and, incidentally, to Chuck.

Kathryn Wulliman The Junior Class gave their play entitled ‘‘Foot-Loose'’ on October 31, 1941 at the Auditorium. The setting of the play is in the comfortably furnished Early home in suburban Chicago. Richard Early has given Emily, his wife, full rein in the rearing of their children, Dick. Hope. Mary and Bob. The children rebel at being tied to their mother's apron strings because she has deprived them of many opportunities in an effort to shield her children. In order to show their parents and especially their mother that they could take care of themselves. Hope. Dick. Mary, and Bob finally coax their parents into taking a vacation cruise. Delphie. the maid, is to have complete charge of the family with the exception that Hope shall take care of the finances. After Mr. and Mrs. Early leave, things really begin to happen. Mary meets Jack Milford. a college sophomore, through her friend. Miriam Walker, and thinks that Randy Cunningham. her childhood friend, shouldn’t be her only escort. This is the cause of much worry on Hope's part. Bob talks Hope into giving him his entire ten weeks’ allowance so that he can buy half interest in an old car. The very first day Bob and Buzz Dailey, his partner in the business venture, have the car. they run into the rear of a Lincoln owned by a cranky old widow. Mrs. Forester. In her extremity Hope calls on Sanford Welles, an ex-suitor. Ir. the midst of all these difficulties. Delphie becomes seriously ill and her hospital expenses must be met out of the limited family budget. Then to top it all off. Dick and Jenny, his new wife, come to the Early home for an indefinite stay. There are many problems to solve but things are pretty well ironed out when Mr. and Mis. Early return home, and Bob suggests to Hope that it might be well to let their parents enjoy the memory of their first real vacation without being bothered by the children's adventures. And Hope thinks that's sound philosophy.

I'm gazing now into my crystal ball, In it I see a progressive Hall Of Fame; And this whole senior class Is participating in it. each lad. each lass. Ronnie Lehman, a dance band leader Is really up” on how to beat ’er”! How he makes those hep-cats move. When he puts 'em in the groove. What is that beautiful melody I hear. I see it's from the radio, as closer I appear; When I listen a little better, I give with some stares For he’s saying Elsie Stauffer has brought you Consoleairs.’ The business world side we must now see With Jeanette Reusser leading as secretary. She’s brilliant, efficient and has a big pay-roll, A girl who has attained a worth-while goal. Helen—a pastor's wife of Pennsylvania state, Has had to learn to tete-a-tete. People with their problems she helps to guide. Because always in her they can confide. Earl Habegger, now a rich play boy. Is living a life of boundless joy; Ranches, yachts, and caviar. And blue champagne brought from afar. A trial is on—a client, a defendant Upon Bettie Myers they must be dependent. Because she is the court recorder, A good one too—just made to order. Ardus Gene, a woman of beauty. Has a different type of duty; Modeling is her favorite art Until Dan Cupid shoots his dart. A dairyman now comes into view Who has a very high cattle I. Q. Howard Kennel is great at this now. Because he learned to milk a cow. Approaching me now upon the street Is a blue-eyed maiden, very sweet; It's Ardythe Luginbill, a governess. She's reached her highest ambition. I guess. A beautful scene confronts my eyes A heaven on earth—a paradise; Berneta. a waitress for her spouse. In a little, cozy, rural house. Gazing one day between magazine covers Something caught my eye which over me hovers, Jacqueline Sprunger—sounded vaguely familiar to me, Oh. yes. a commercial illustrator is she. Adrian Lehman, instead of a soldier brave. Decided that he with the soil would slave; With a cozy cottage and a sweet little wife. He seems to be leading a wonderful life. Spit it out” and Hold up your hands.” Who is this girl giving these commands? It’s Pauline Girod—a school teacher maid, In reaching the sky she has not delayed. LaVerda in this great conquest called life. Has chosen as an occupation to become a wife; And in this position she fits very well. Because all of Cliffs sorrows she’s right there to quell. A man who now is running a house Is Brookie Sprunger—a well-known spouse: He's living now each day for Marlene And she will always be his queen. As I was browsing in a book store I saw a book of poetry and lore; Turning it over to see the author’s name. I found that Betty Mae was the same. And now for some music, strike up the band! Come on. give this great girl a hand. This accomplished accordionist is Verneile. A sweet little blonde musical belle. Sock! Bam! Wham! What’s this I hear? Someone's being hurt I fear; That same someone is even now knocked out. For R. R. Mazelin is a boxer stout. As an athletic director in a great institution Phyllis has made her contribution; In hitting those hammers she’s not a drip. And at basketball she’s really a pip! A career woman now gets the bright spotlight. Who has worked her way up” with all her might: She has never shirked for her career. And Lois has never gone to the arrear. Norbert Nyffeler. a renown doctor. Who in college was a proctor: Is now known the whole world over. From Nagasaki to the Fields of Dover. When into Virginia's life I X-rayed. I found she has not become an old maid; Because quite young she was married to Burry So about her future she has no need to worry. Vera Lehman, a well-known dietitian. Is now employed in a laboratory kitchen; Knowing her dietetics, she hasn't gotten any bigger. Since dietitians know how to keep their figgers. Cadet B. Emick—a man of fame. Has really made himself a name; For while he keeps the girls a-sighing. He also helps to Keep 'Em Flying. Carmen Lehman—now Mrs. Maver Roth. Is busily cooking her husband some broth; To attain this position he didn’t have to draft her, They were married and lived happily ever after. Baumgartner, now a name of fame Is really up and at the game; He is a man of scintillation, A banker—that's his occupation. Waneta Stauffer hasn't decided yet Just what would be her one best bet; To be an actress or just a hash-slinger. Or to join an orchestra to be a blues singer. Hypodermics, anesthetics, and blood counts ga’ore. Is the type of work Kathleen Beer goes for; A Red Cross nurse, and proud of her are we. Because she's serving our needful country. Now Harold's a man with a mighty brain Who thought how he a fortune could gain; But when I asked him what he did. He casually answered. Gosh. I didn't, kid. A pretty face and flirtatious eyes Makes Margaret tip-top with the guys, For an army hostess she now is She can answer any armed force quiz. Behind the mike is our next stop. To a girl who imitates vox pop; Grace, a sound effects woman. I'll admit. Is good at her giggles and does her bit. Jimmy Marine. I now salute. Because by facts which I compute; I see that Goodin’s now a man! Because he's helping Uncle Sam. Forty-two SENIOR DATE MEMO Sept. 3. Sad faces—Why? Back to school.
