And remember the Minute-Man flag that we obtained by buying stamps and bonds? As the Indian Summer mellowed into a crisp autumn, plans were made for the addition to the mill which was necessary to house the accumulating war surplus equipment. Football started off with a bang, clubs were in full swing, a true Thanksgiving rolled around, and the Seniors proudly presented their first M t iff T o J fl ll J, l ffl play. Fallen leaves were soon covered with snow, making a fitting atmosphere for the hall caroling and Christmas holidays. Basketball and wrestling furnished new thrills, and we proudly restored the Bloomington-Martinsville Shaving Mug to our trophy case. Remember about the time we were all tiring of Old Man Winter , spring projected herself into view. Trees began to bud, and a if new, light-hearted atmosphere of spring fever pervaded . the class rooms. The track and golf teams wound up a successful season, and as a fitting climax, the Juniors n M held the annual Prom. Buds blossomed into flowers, plans made in September were now accomplishments, X and graduation was no longer a dream, but a reality. As the underclassmen bade a temporary good-by and 0, looked forward to next year, the Seniors bade a last jf HJ farewell and thus another succesful year came to a close. But why say remember, for those things we will , never forget. 5 l lM',f0f MW Y MEM ff , . ff tiiw life The Dance 0 The Wooden Shoe In a romantic setting of deep green foliage, white latticed arches, and gay tulips, the coronation of the Prom King and Queen took place. As crowns of soft, turquoise velvet studded with pearls were placed on their heads, His Majesty, Frank Owens, and Her Highness, Marie Smith, reigned at the Prom with all due pomp and ceremony . . In the festive little Dutch garden, girls in pretty formals and boys in their best suits danced to sentimen- tal melodies while the sweeps of the windmill swung away the time. Thus in a make-believe Holland our Prom was held.

After obtaining all the latest gossip, We proceeded to our first class. The period was half over when We were disturbed by five long rings of the fire drill bell. We were out of the building in record time, but We lingered on the Walks as long as possible before re-entering. The second period continued as usual with no interruptions except for the day's announcements. The next 55 minutes were spent wish- ing we had studied the preceding night instead of going to the show. Around 12 o'clock, delectable aromas drifting up from the cafeteria aroused our hunger and made the remainder of the period seem endless. When the bell rang at last, we brushed aside returning 4th-period lunchers, and hurried home to the food awaiting us. Returning at 1:30, we headed for our 6th period class. The afternoon passed quickly, and we were soon receiving last- minute reminders of club meetings via the public address system. The bell sounded and another school day ended. -N ,-P-W.-ri,.f 1 , .

E Wx f W0 as insignificant freshmen and began our journey on a 5 00 high school career. After three years of intensive CU ms f study, we organized our class, elected officers and spon- sors. Immediately the Gothic Staff was chosen, and the members learned the meaning of headlines and deadlines. In the Little Dutch Garden, we held the traditional Junior-Senior prom, thus bidding farewell to our friends -the class of '45. With the beginning of the fall semester, we en- rolled as seniors and announced we were the upperclass- men. Our first social, a get-together party, brought forth merriment in the month of November while our first theatrical production, Love Your Neighbor , was trail- ing close behind. The beginning of the second semester found us minus our January graduates and working on another dramatic production, You Can't Take It With You . Time marched on and the junior class sent us an invita- tion to the prom to be given in our honor. Then in rapid succession came Honor Day, Class Day, and Baccalaur- eate which brought us near the end of our journey. On May 23, Commencement night, we passed through the gate of the past and walked forward into the future . . . and now THE SENIORS. 746 Seam 5 E N I 0 R S Clays Ufficew Helen Marie Abram James Adkins Betty Albertson Raymond B.

Mr. Binford, superintendent, has proved himself equal to the problems that have arisen whether it be the varying supply and demand in the teaching force or the many calls for his service in both community and state or- ganizations. To Dr. Simon, our principal, Welcome Home. Having recently served as a Colonel in the Army, he ably advises veterans interested in completing their high school education, as well as devoting untiring energy to the problems of B.H.S. students. A friendly smile and a personal interest in each student is always associated with Mr. Templeton, our assistant principal ..... Our policy-makers, the Board of School Trustees, are co- workers with our educators in improving our school and instructional methods. This essential organization of our educational system must also face and solve the many financial problems of our school. Mr. O'Harrow, owner of a Well-known Bloomington pharmacy, Mr. Wylie, prominent in the limestone business, and Mr. Southern, a local banker, comprise our Board. Miss Fleener serves as clerk for both the Superintendent and the Board of School Trustees. Higher achievements and greater advancement for each student of Bloomington High School is the motto of our ADMINISTRATION. H. E. BINFORD Supcrintcvndrnt D. L. SIMON F. L.

We regard them as sincere friends who willingly help us in time of need. During the year, Mr. Templeton assumed the position as Director of Research and Testing for the city school system while Mr. Dick took over the Dean's duties for the rest of the year. COUNSELORS Mrs. Frances Peters. Miss Elizabeth Dodds Our counselors have a busy time ad- vising and helping students plan their courses. At the beginning of each semes- ter, long lines of bewildered students are swallowed by their office, but soon come out with their problems settled. Through- out the year, Miss Dodds serves as aca- demic counselor w h i le Mrs. Peters answers the many questions concerning vocations. ATTENDANCE OFFICER Mr. Hiner J. Thompson As attendance officer, Mr. Thompson hears excuses as varied as Bloomington weather, and, sorry to say, he does have to clamp down on those students seri- ously afflicted with s p r i n g fever. Through contacts with both students and parents, he emphasizes the need for regular school attendance. cunnzcrmu Gilllxzta M ' I ff OFFICE STAFF SPEECH AND HEARING Mrs. Mary Lou Armstrong T H E R A P Y MVS- HHZG1 Th0ml7S0Y'l Mrs. Mary Neill, Miss Mary Frances Mead At any time you can find Mrs. Thompson in the main office - ' , :' doing a few of the many tasks necessary to keep things running smoothly.

Changes noted in this department were the addition of two new courses, Bible Study and Contemporary Literature ..... Whether it is com- mercial arithmetic or trigonometry, the members of this department believe that mathe- matics is the science of precision and exactness. Changes in this department included Mr. Millikan's substituting for Mrs. Cogswell during the first semester and the retirement of Miss King after 25 years of service in B.H.S ...... For those would-be Curies and Ein- steins or those of us who are just interested in knowing why, our science teachers point out the laws and principles of that field which govern the universe ..... Proficiency for tomorrow means preparation today. Our industrial arts instructors believe that careful training in vocational subjects leads to a successful future. Students taking industrial arts have the advantage of using the vast amount of surplus war equipment donated to our school.

Solving the needs of those who prefer to work with figures and those interested in future office work, our commercial de- partment offers typing, short- hand, and bookkeeping. During the first semester, Mrs. Stradling assumed the 'duties of Mrs. Crouse, who resigned to join her husband in Washington, D.C. While Christmas bells were ring- ing, wedding bells rang for Mrs. Kaiser, the former Miss Crum. 0 A typical day in the bookstore includes the renting of books, selling of postage stamps, order- ing another case of cokes for a school party, collecting senior fees, answering inquiries con- cerning lost articles, and the selling of supplies. As the day moves on, the workers in the bookstore can be seen busily doing anything from the prep- aration of books and supplies for the grade schools to balancing the treasurers' books of different organizations in B.H.S. 0 The health department has the responsibility of safeguard- ing the health of students, fac- ulty, and employees of all the Bloomington schools. In addition to the routine program of exam- inations and immunizations, they care for minor injuries and ill- nesses as they occur from day to day. Dr. Culmer is present at all major athletic events to care for any injuries that might occur among the players. Mrs. Buskirk, formerly known to us as Annabelle Prow, resigned her position as receptionist the first semester, and Mrs. Trisler has assumed her duties.

Putting to practice their principles of cleanliness are those behind the scene workers, our custodians. ln order to keep B.H.S. in condition, our housekeepers must perform numerous tasks, which range from keeping the dust away to freeing our walks from ice and snow. While we rest during summer vacation, they assume added duties by giving our school a thorough late spring cleaning. Another hidden department of our school is the cafeteria staff which prepares and serves appetizing lunches for an average of 300 hungry students each day. Although food still ranked high on the scarcity list, our cooks continued to prepare a variety of food at Il minimum cost for us.

They learned the hard way-by experience . . . Entering the doors of B.H.S., 317 timid Freshmen began their high school life in the fall of '45 and soon learned what a fascinating place B.H.S. could be. . . Out of freshiedom emerged our in-betweeners, the Sophomore class. Half-way through their high school career, the class of '48 has al- ready shown live-wire characteristics . . . Now we come to those one-more-year students, the Juniors. The class of '47 demonstrated its ability to make Seniors scramble to keep their laurels. They boasted, as do all Junior classes, that their class would be the best to pass through the doors of B.H.S. In one more year they will have the chance to prove it-to carry out the established ideas and traditions set before them for the better class . . . It is with pleasure we present the UNDERCLASSMEN. 5 X, as :S , If 4 fx ' 2 R Q ,M L -- .:,-,.-., . , .

Opening the athletic season was our old favorite, football. Coach Mumby directed and guided our pigskin team on the gridiron assisted by Coaches Dick, Burns, and Hoke. In November, -the basketball season opened with Coach Dick teaching the tricks of the hardwood to our varsity. Coach Brogneaux returned from the Navy in time to train the second team to be the big five of 1947 and un- der his supervision the golf team teed off for another season. Our future first squads, the freshman and junior high teams, were directed by Coaches Hoke, and Burns, respectively. With grunts and groans, turns and tumbles, our wrestling season began with Coach Myers back from the Army to guide the 1946 crop of matmen through an undefeated season to another State Championship. He was assisted by Coach Mumby. Under the supervision of Coach Hoke, the track squad learned the techniques of the cinderpath. Bloomington High School is proud of its coaches who never fail to produce teams of outstanding sportsmanship. To them we owe our deepest respect and admiration for their hard work and untiring efforts. FA C UL TY MANAGER Mr. Stradling, business manager of the athletic depart- ment, administers finances, buys equipment, arranges transporta- tion and meals for the traveling athletic teams, and does numer- ous other duties in carrying out the administrative tasks of this department. The closing of the basketball season this year found Mr. Stradling doing double duty as he planned for both the sec- tional and semi-final tournaments. J. W.

During the game, Coach Mumby substituted freely. The following week the Panthers encountered the strong Central Bears from Evansville. Our once-tried grid machine, which the week before had run so well, was bogged down in rain and mud in the first home game, and the locals lost by a score of 20 to 2. Traveling south the Mumbymen met the New Albany Bulldogs. Slowed down by many injuries our Panthers went down in defeat. Still stinging from one of'their two defeats of last year our boys lost to the hard-driving Brazil Red Devils on Mumby Field. Playing on a field covered with water they were unable to score while Brazil scored 9 points. In breaking a three game losing streak, our boys 'once again showed great power in swamping the Washington Hatchets 45 to 0 at Washington. The Columbus Bull- dogs were next on the Panther schedule, and the Panther machine edged them out in a hard fought ball game. Meeting Muncie on their own gridiron, the Panthers showed much determ- ination and ability but were no match for the powerful Bearcats. Next our boys met Linton, the leaders of the S.I.A.C.g the Miners defeated the Panthers by 14 points. Traveling to Terre Haute, the Panthers engaged the Wiley Red Streaks in a game in which many penalties were called and two Bloomington touchdowns were nullified. The Panthers lost 26 to 6. Playing West La- fayette for the first time, the Panthers met defeat at the hands of the up-staters, thus ending their 1945 football season. If the season were measured in games won, it might be said that we had an unsuccessful year, but if we totaled up the spirit and effort of the team they would be placed on top.

PAGE 50 BASKETBALL Jaok scores in the Bedford game Iibwdwood Seaton Starting the season off with a bang, on No- vember 23, our basketball team conquered Crawfordsville on their own floor 42 to 24. Having shown offensive power, our Panthers turned in an equally great defensive game by defeating the Greencastle Tigers 28 to 12. Then in rapid succession our Panthers were downed by the Bedford Stone-Cutters 34 to 20, the Shelbyville Bears 30 to 23, the Sullivan Arrows 39 to 30, and the Martinsville Artes- ians 40 to 38. On December 21, the team click- ed to lead Wiley of Terre Haute 44 to 33 at the final gun. Going to a holiday tourney at Lafayette in which Jeff of Lafayette, North Side of Fort Wayne, and Jasper were partici- PAGE 60 pating, Bloomington gained much valuable experience for sectional time. With New Year's resolutions of victory, our Panthers rolled merrily over Martinsville by a score of 42 to 30 in a return game played on our floor. A week later, the boys traveled South to meet the Bedford Stone-Cutters in a return engagement. Flushed with victory, and still resolved to win, our squad for the first time in three years edged out Bedford by a 3-point margin. The next night, the Panthers bowed to the New Albany Bulldogs in a hard- fought game in which the opponents racked up 39 points while we tallied only 33. Six days later, in our intra-city game, the Pan- BASKETBALL thers were defeated by the University Schoolg the Guinea Pigs squeezed by with a score of 39 points against our 37. Facing one of the top teams in the state, our scrappy and determined team was unable to cope with the Central of Evansville steam roller which overwhelmed them by the lopsided score of 49 to 22. Again encountering tough opposition, but showing improvement, our Panthers met the Jasper Wildcats on their floor and were held to 39 points while the opponents collected 52. By a final score of 41 to 36, our team defeated the much-vaunted Columbus Bulldogs. Our Panthers tangled with the strong Linton Miners and were van- quished 44 to 28. Invading the Panther's den, Howe's ten-game winning streak was snapped by our Varsity. The following week, the Vin- cennes Alices turned on their power and our team came out on the short end of a 35 to 27 score. In our final pre-sectional game, the Panthers bowed to the Washington Hatchets 47 to 40. Beginning the Sectional on the 21st of February, our team swamped Paragon 57 to 17. Displaying a good brand of basket- ball, our boys defeated the Ellettsville Eagles 35 to 26. After being led by Morgantown much of the way, our team came through to win a thriller 31 to 29. Trailing by a large margin the first half, the Panthers came to life in the last quarter, but despite this desperate rally, they lost the sectional crown to the Univees by a score of 37 to 30. We are proud of our basketball team for having faced some of the toughest opposition in the state and even prouder of them for having borne defeat man- fully and having won without arrogance.

AY 5 I X STARS i PAGE 63 PAGE 64 BASKETBALL RESER VES The members of the reserve basketball squad, directed by Coach Brogneaux, proved themselves worthy of their name, the Panther Cubs. Clawing their way through practically all opposition, the Cubs ran up a string of ten consecutive victories before being stung by the Hornets from Howe of Indianapolis. After dropping a close game to the Crawfords- ville seconds for their first loss of the season, the following week on their own floor they walloped Greencastle 31 to 15. The next Fri- day the Cubs lost to Bedford but went on to defeat the University School seconds 23 to 18 in a hard fought ball-game. Then Coach Brogneaux's boys overpowered the Sullivan reserves 27 to 15 at Sullivan. Showing their defensive strength they defeated Martinsville 19 to 12. Next they encountered the seconds from Wiley of Terre Haute and added them to the list of Cub victories. Meeting Martins- ville in a return game, our boys defeated the Artesians and added another win to their evergrowing chain. Winning from Bedford, Stinesville, University School, Columbus, and Linton, the Cubs thus added six niore victor- ies to their record. Trying to gain their eleventh consecutive win in fourteen starts, the seconds went down in defeat before the Howe team. Throughout the whole game our boys were never far behind, but when the final gun was fired they were on the short end of a 25 to 24 score. Determined not to lose another game, the Cubs defeated the Little Hatchets 28 to 18 at Washington, thus ending a very successful season. Coach Brogneaux announced that nu- merals would be awarded to the following boys: Ray Lanum, Ronald Broi .'.' n, James Dearing, Bob Dobson, Ralph Stewart, Carl Price, Rex Brummett, Austin Stevens, James Barr, Max Skirvin, Dale Head, William Stew- art, Ralph Spears, and Tom Massey.

Playing sterling ball, the freshmen team won vic- tories at the expense of the University, Stinesville and Martinsville Freshmen teams .... The Junior-High quintet un- der the direction of Coach Burns showed much promise of being future varsity material. Paced by three consistent high scorers, Jim Kinder, Don Byers, and Jack Crandall, the Juniors had a very success- ful season. Playing like true champions, they ran up a string of twelve victories in thirteen starts. Brushing aside prac- tically all opposition, they were defeated only at the hands of the Ellettsville Jun- ior High, the score being 21 to 20. The Burnsmen avenged this d e f e a t by trouncing Ellettsville 43 to 17 in a re- turn game. Although these two teams are still young in the basketball world, they promise to make a name for them- selves in the not too distant future. JTUNIOR HIGH SQUAD Row 1-Donald Lyon. Fritz Hel- mond.

TRACK Under the direction of Coach Hoke, the track squad jogged over to the In- diana University field house early in January for their preliminary training. The squad showed much promise of having a winning season with the return of ten lettermen from last years' sec- tional championship teamg among these was Frank Owens, who won an individ- ual first place in the half mile at the state meet last spring. Participating in a total of ten meets, the track team climaxegl a successful season with the sectional and state meets. As school closed, our tracksters stored away their spikes for another year. GOLF The golf squad again looked forward to another successful season. Strength- ened by the return of three lettermen, Hubert Hoke, Max Bruce and Raymond Stancombe from last year's S.I.A.C. championship team, the squad was once again favored to win the conference title. The direction of the golf squad was taken over by Coach Brogneaux, who mentored the B.H.S. squad before his entrance into the navy. Playing their usual good game, the boys successfully completed an eight meet schedule. Though they sometimes found themselves in the rough, they al- WayS Came out Ol'1 the gfeell.

As we leaf through the following pages, we can only partially grasp the full meaning of activities at Bloomington High School. We cannot capture with a camera the training, fellowship, and all the enjoyment these activities furnish the students. The extra- curricular program is so designed as to bring out leader- ship, talent, sportsmanship, and to develop confidence and poise on the part of the student, Blue Tri's annual religious service, glee clubs' harmonious programs, con- certs and all school sings by band and orchestra, Pro- scenium Player productions, broadcasts by Studio Thea- ter Guild, Student Council setting the example as a gov- erning body, forums held by International Relations Club, Honorary Societies gained through hard work, all provide for the making of better citizens. These organiza- tions on credit and non-credit basis comprise only a few of those extra-curricular good times that make B. H. S. a place of pleasant memories. Whether it was friendship or leadership, we all put into and received much from our ACTIVITIES.

Its purpose is to govern the student body in the most democratic way possible. Through the efforts of the Student Council, stamps and bonds were sold again this year. Members worked hard boosting sales in each home room to attain the 10092 goal. Other activities for the year included participation in the Junior Red Cross, the Anti- Tuberculosis Campaign, and the local Cancer Control Fund. The Council also adopted a 13-year old Dutch boy, Wilheim Larshiyd, who is in a refugee camp in England. Fifteen dollars toward Wilheim's care was paid each month to the Foster Parents Plan for War Children. In addition to all its victory work, the council decorated the huge Christmas tree in the front hall, and sponsored after-the-game dances during the football and basket- ball seasons. Those scholarship B's so proudly received by hard-Working students on Honor Day are bought by none other than the Student Council. More pictures for the Optimist were made possible through a contribution Of this organization. The sponsors are Mrs. Krueger and Mr. Dick.

Reaching toward the best was the theme for the Blue Triangle this year. The activities opened with a formal initiation held in the high school auditorium in which new members signed their names to the secretary's book. The year's program was composed of speakers, book reviews, a hymn interpretation service, a style show, and talent programs. A get-acquainted potluck, and a 'February Frolic' led the social events. The proceeds from the candy sales in the front hall pay for a scholarship to Indiana University for one semester awarded at commencement to an outstand- ing senior member of the club. The chorus, the main project of the club, gave an impressive service as a convocation during the Easter season. It also presented its annual Christmas pro- gram inviting the Silver Tri and Junior Girl Reserves as guests. Row 1-Mary Esther Frccse.

Staff, whether it be pep sessions, dances, convos, or Honor Day exercises. This year the staff used the new ampli- fier left to the school by the class of 1945. New members are added to the staff from the waiting list of applicants. Under the sponsorship of Mr. Van Horn, these boys spend much time setting up microphones and amplifiers for various school activities. At the end of the year, members receive service awards and we, the school, say Thanks fellows, for a job well done. Kenneth Owens. Jack Sears, Alton Swindler.

These are but a few of the expressions you might hear from the members of the Optimist staff should you visit room 213 after school. These industrious students are constantly scouring their minds for writing mater- ial with which to meet the deadline for the next issue. To qualify for the staff, a student must have twelve inches of copy printed in the paper. To remain on the staff, each member must contribute copy for 82 every issue. Aside from the two and one-half cents taken from each pupi1's home room fee, the paper is self-support- ing through its advertising. Formerly a weekly paper, the Optimist is now dis- tributed semi-monthly. This change gives the staff more time to work and enables them to produce a better paper. Howard Dess acted as editor-in-chief the first semester and as co-editor with Maribelle Shaw the second semester. Miss Hopewell and Mr. Stradling were the faculty advisor and business manager respectively. GOTHIC STAFF One year ago the 1946 Gothic Staff was born. This infant had the sober responsibility of recording the life of B.H.S. during the year. Being industri- ous, the staff set busily to Work and by July had the plan for this history in the office of the engraving company for an estimate on its cost. During summer meetings, in addition to preparing the dummy, the cover was chosen, captions discussed, and informal pictures planned. With the resumption of school, the now adolescent Gothic Staff made sched- ules for the taking of pictures and soon learned the mechanics of making layouts. By working overtime, they met the mid- December deadline. During this time the editorial staff did those necessary odds and ends-checking names, identifying club pictures, and taking snap shots-- While the business staff collected ads, and kept a close Watch on the budget. Soon the staff, now fully matured, began laboring on copy and by working during the mid-term Vacation, met an- other deadline. This left only a month to organize copy and pictures for the printer. After proof reading, the aged Gothic Staffgits life Work completed-settled back in a rocking chair and with due consideration to Miss Rector, Mrs. Peters, Mr. Stradling, and the photographers pointed with pride to the 1946 Gothic.

Whew, this flat washing is surely hard work! I'll be glad when somebody invents a machine for this.- What? Surely the flats have to be washed over again. We'll let some of the new staff members do that. They don't know any better-yet! This chatter is what you might hear coming from the scenery room while the Tech Staff is at work. Under the direction of Mr. Van Horn the staff worked evenings and Saturdays to build scenery for our plays. This year for the first time a stage manager was appointed to head all crews and have complete charge of one particular production. The stage crews responsibili- ties were lighting, properties, scenery, and costumes. Each member was given an opportunity to work on dif- ferent crews. The Tech Staff is on hand during all school plays to furnish artistic scenery, skillfully applied make- up, and effective lighting. They also operate all stage equipment for convocations and other school programs. Membership is attained only through application and interview.

During every home basketball game, the members of the band were found in their regular place in the balcony playing their popular pep songs. They also played for convos, pep sessions, Honor Day, and Commencement. Their activities do not end with the close of schoolg all summer the industrious students practice and give concerts every Thursday night in the Third Street Park. Measurements were finally taken for the much needed and long awaited uniforms. The orchestra made public appearances at all 3 act plays and at Baccalaur- eate. The purpose of the band and orchestra is to produce and gain an appreci- ation of good music. The highlights of the year were a spring and a fall band and orchestra concert. The two took turns about being host for several parties. The final social event of the year was the annual picnic held near the close of school. PAGE 93 IUNIOR HIGH CLUB PAGE 94 Ana' There Shall!

FROM UNIFORMS TO CAPS AND GOWNS Life in Bloomington High School has gone on in spite of the war which destroyed or interrupted many of the schools of the world. Some of the men whose educations have been interrupted by the demands of war have returned to high school to obtain their diplomas. Most of these students have met the re- quirements for graduation through credits received for in-service training and through examinations rather than by regular class attendance in high school. We honor and respect them for having postponed their education in order that we might continue ours. Fred Barriger Grover Elroy Brashear John Allen Buffaloe James R. Burks Max Campbell Richard F.

Williams Robert G. Wood James Worley YOU CAN'T FORGET the past two semesters which brought enjoyment and most of all, accomplish- ment to both faculty and students. The school year open- ed with many new changes affecting the lives of the students in B.H.S.fa completely revised schedule with consequent changes in club meetings, members of the faculty returning from the armed forces, minor altera- tions in the building, and the exchange of yesterdays Seniors for today's junior high. An all high was set this year in thrills and attendance at athletic events, dramatic productions, and concerts. Thus we have the highlights of a great school year which has been made possible for us through the interest and devotion of our parents and friends in this community. Whether it is merchandise or service, the business men of Bloomington do their utmost to serve their cus- tomers well. These merchantshave contributed gener- ously to the financial support of the Gothic. That was their way of helping to make a larger book that better depicted the life of the students of Bloomington High School. For their cooperation and support, we, the Gothic Staff, want to send to them an old-fashioned, Thank you. z 4 1 '!n'r1ZE ,psf .y.ig1'f g lm A ffcgg ,.
