' ' ' ' laOTM lFIKgir BLUFFTON HIQH SCHOOL, BLUFFTOISI, INDIANA Briife-Lm- Retrospect, 1962 takes as its theme Bluff- ton ' s location on the banks of the Wabash River. The river has played an important part in the history of our city. Indeed, Bluff- ton grew here because of a ford where an important early road crossed the river. Now the river serves not so much as an important asset, but as a symbol of Bluffton. If we were to remember only one thing- about this city, it would probably be the fact that it is located on the banks of the Wabash. All of us have enjoyed the landscape of the river while hunting, fishing, or just admir- ing the beauty of the scene. The Retrospect is primarily a book of memories, and there is no better or more beautiful center for these memories than the sheer bluffs and tree-lined banks of the Wabash. EDUCATION: Still the SchooVs Major Task The courses of study at Bluffton High were chosen to give a student a sound basis for either continuing his formal education or completing it at graduation. They offer a combination of technical training and liberal education to prepare the student more completely for living. As the Wabash River is the product of all its tributaries, so an education is composed of the sum of all one ' s academic and technical activities. Becky Bibersline. Mike Schwartz, and Mr. Knight examine the newest addition to their biology class. BHS students utilize their study periods lO good advantage. The library and class rooms, during periods when they are not occupied bv classes, serve as studv halls. These Add Spice To School Programs Top, left: Greg Starr and Sheila Moser led the band during the marching season. Sheila also entertained the crowd at a home basketball game with a twirling performance during half-time.

Active Season For Music Qroups The band played in 27 school and public perfor- mances, their appearance enhanced by the new and attractive concert and marching uniforms. The organi- zation continued to support all school functions and many civic affairs. Under the direction of Mr. Butt, a number of band members took part in the District Solo and Ensemble contest in which two ensembles got a first and five received a second, the two highest ratings possible.

Their repertoire had variety, en- tertainment value, qualit.v, and balance. Their programs were further enhanced by the solos and smaller vocal groups which presented speciality numbers, giving added variety to the concerts.

School Honors Program Shows First Results This year a new program for recognizing students with high scholastic standing was put into operation. Soon af ' :er the opening of school, a convocation was held to honor students achieving high cumulative grade- point average? during their high school careers. Certificates wer3 awarded for freshman and sophomore work, and a bronze medal inscribed Scholarship — Junior was awarded for junior work.

Some of the functions of the department are administering and interpret- ing tests, arranging such programs as College Night to acquaint students with colleges and vocational schools, helping students to find part-time enii)l( yment, keep- ing extensive files on each student, and counseling with individuals on school and personal problems.

The purpose of this society is to hold the four cardinal objectives of education — Scholar- ship, Leadership, Character, and Service — before the school as goals toward which all should strive. In Februarv the Bluffton members installed a chapter of the National Honor Society at Ossian. They also conducted the formal initiation of the new Bluffton members at a convocation. The new members were later honored with a dinner at the Nixon home. Five Chosen for Quill and Scroll Quill and Scroll is a national organization for students doing outstanding work in journalism, either in newspaper or yearbook production. Students were chosen this year from the editorial and business staffs of the Retrospect. L. to r: Sandy Sheets. Becky Aschliman. Gloria Moser. Carol Morrical.

Studies are, of course, the first and most important part of school life. Under this surface of academic activity, though, runs a vital under- current of extracurricular activities. The greater part of outside activity takes place in clubs, societies, and other groups. Some organizations have as their purpose extending interest in sub- jects taught in school, while others honor dis- tinguished work in school and school-connected work. Some meet to serve others and improve themselves, and one organization, the Cheerblock, provides vital support for basketball teams. Many social events originate within these groups. In all of them, students enjoy doing things with their friends. But the most important result of group membership is not immediately apparent. In each, members are working with others, giving and taking, to reach a common goal. This association gives practica in dealing with others, a valuable asset through one ' s whole life. ACTIVITIES The business staff includes S. Cochran. Mr. Park, S. Sheets. B. Melching. The editorial staff inckides G. Moser. P. Lenwell. B. Tangeman, R. Yule. M. BeVier. C. Morrical, J.

Morrical, J. Paxson. J. Meschberger. S. Cochran, B. Nixon, B. Aeschliman, S. Sheets, B, Melching The Retrospect is more than a book filled with pictures ; it is a record of memories which will become a treasured keep-sake. The staff worked many long hours after school planning the dummy, setting up pic- ture groupings, and writing and proofreading copy. Many others contributed to this book. Informal shots are the work of Chai ' les Murray, school photographer. Lonna LaVine and other senior girls assisted with the typing. The staff spent hectic last moments of revision and meeting deadlines with pho- tographers, engravers and printers, but they enjoved preparing this book of remembrance for the year 1961-1962. Dabblers Learn Art is Fun The Dabblers, a club for mem- bers of the art class, were respon- sible for the check rooms at basketball games and the art work in the halls at Christmas and Sectional time. Earlier in the year, they exhibited in the display case on the north stairs, practical illus- trations of their woi ' k in advertis- ing setups and house planning. 1. to r: P. Collier, M. Lydy. J.

Y ' Teens Develop Welfare and Social Program The purpose of the Y-Teens is to build a fellowship of wo- men and girls devoted to the tasks of realizing in our common life those ideals of Christian, personal, and social service. The Y-Teens began the year by initiating 52 new members into the club. They distributed Christmas baskets to needy families and continued visits to their two adopted grandmothers. They sponsored the annual Best Beau Banquet in October and the Mother-Daughter Tea in May. L ' pper left, .„n row. I. to r: Seniors Pat Campbell. Lonna LaVine. Karen Kunkel. Sue Cochran.

Dressed in red and black shirts, and wearing white gloves, the girls made letter formations, displayed hand motions, and followed the cheerleaders in loud backing of the team. So great was their enthusiasm that many times they came to school before 8 o ' clock to practice yells. CHEERLEADERS L. to r: Sue Cochran. Ann Flanigam, Chcrvl Railing.

K. Langel A covered bridge across the Wabash west of Bluffton. There are many ties that bind 500 students and faculty into a school, but perhaps the most obvious expressions of unity are the times when they gather behind their teams to cheer them on to victory. At a pep session, during a game, cr vv atching the record of a team build, they are all of a single mind, hoping to win. This unity, or school spirit, is an important feeling which all at a school receive from an athletic program. Those who participate get a special reward. Strength of character, physical excellence, the pride of playing a good game — these are but a few gains of Tiger athletes. The players will always remember that conference championship, or the tough game they won against most of tlie predictions. Anyone from Bluffton traveling in Indiana will feel a special satisfaction at hear- ing it said, Bluffton? Say, your team played a good game here last year!

Pettyjohn Track, Cross Country Men Show Roadrunner Form After a rough start with New Haven, Mr. Fornshell coached his 1960-61 track team through an impressive season with a 7-2 record. This year in track was highlighted by Mike Flowers breaking the high jump and shot-put records. Coached by Mr. Rosenstihl, the cross coun- try team came out with a 1-5 record. The underclassmen took a good share of the honors, thereby giving Coach Rosenstihl a hopeful outlook for next year. This was the fourth season for cross country at BHS.

Not only did they take a share in the N.E.I.C. title, but they walked away with the Holiday Tour- ney and captured the Sectional crown. Coach Rosensthil says, I have high hopes for next year with three of the starting five boys returning to the squad. Brad Bounds, junior member of the Tall Timber Twins the other being Senior Steve Hart, captured the N.E.I.C. scoring title. This is the second year in a row that a Tiger has won this honor.

Cool Tigers Capture Hot Sectional The Tigers again proved superior in win- ning the ninth sectional crown out of the last eleven tournaments. The Bengals elimi- nated a determined Chester team 72-60. Rockcreek, winning their first game of the season in tourney play, was downed 76-62. Ossian, winning a rough afternoon game over Liberty Center, was still the number one contender for the crown. It proved to be an exciting game but the Tigers had too much for Ossian ' s Bears to cope with. The final score was 68-58. Reserves Serve Their Apprenticeship The reserve team, made up of eleven sopho- mores and five juniors, provided the spirited competition which helped to give the varsity its incentive to match or better the B-team game. Coach Hullinger, in his first year as reserve team coach, inspired his boys to fight through the last second of the final game. The team ended with a 8 won 12 lost record.

Hay Lettermen Wear Laurels Proudly To obtain a major B in interscholastic varsity athletics is no small achievement. It not only takes long hours of grueling practice, but also a certain adeptness at the sport. To win this coveted award in basketball and baseball, an athlete must play in 2 3 of the games, in football he must participate in 1 6 of the total playing time, in track he must compile 10 points, in cross country he must average 3rd place, and in tennis he must win half of his matches. This year, 34 boys received this honor.

Beyond all of those, a school is a group of people. Although the people of a school are different in many ways, they have a common purpose: to prepare today ' s young people to run tomorrow ' s world. All school activities are for the benefit of the people of the school; no activity is more important than the people. This section of Retrospect 1962 is dedicated to the people of Bluffton High School: friends and acquaintances, students and faculty, pals and sweethearts. A vital part of a person ' s life is the contacts he makes. Freshmen look forward to new and interesting associations, while seniors look back on a way of life with their friends. Sophomores and juniors find themselves mid-stream in their high school lives, and the faculty tries to help make better young men and women of boys and girls. These are the people of Bluffton High School who work, play, and learn together here on the banks of the Wabash. •■jr? --i - - - ' -  - - « EDWIN E. PRIBLE, Superintendent. A. B. Manchester, M.S.

Four Busy Years Mix Joy and Sadness In September, 1958, 105 freshmen entered the halls of BHS; by May, 1962 only 88 seniors graduated. Through the four busy years 24 students dropped out, and 7 other students entered this class. Of the 88 graduates, about 45 ' f plan to go to college, 25% plan to work, 7% plan to enter the Armed Services, and 22% are undecided about their future plans. On August 13, 1961, members of the school were saddened by the death of Mark DeWayne Costello, in a truck accident. He would have been a member of this year ' s graduating class.

Randy Edington orders an- nouncements for graduation from Bob Gibson in home room. Tom Sturgis, Janis Paxson, and Tom Case engage in some hi-jinx in the lower hall. After waiting for three years, the seniors of 1962 were finally able to do the traditional last year activit- ies: wearing cords, selling in the football concessior stand, and sponsoring the school dances. In November they presented the play One Wild Night. As the year came to a close all the streams of activities led to the big event: Graduation. top to bottom: Miss Settle crowns the senior King and Queen, Carl Pace, Jr. and Judy Carnall, at the last dance.
