Class Unorganized Mr. Robinson, Sponsor Page Twenty-six Dreams Cuntr drur One of the greatest additions to our school equip- ment has come this year with the gymnasium. It provides for the students of the schools an adequate place to carry on all sorts of indoor sports. The gymnasium can also be used for an auditorium. It has a comfortable seating ca- pacity for 1200. It has a large stage for all forms of dra- matics and entertainments. The stage is equipped with a mulberry, sunfast Windsor velour front curtain and val- ance; a tormentor leg drop and grand border of old rose, sunfast Windsor velour, trimmed with a grey band, and grey silk fringe. A grey duvetyn cyclorama furnishes the back and side of the stage. The whole effect is beautiful. We are deeply grateful to Mr. C. C. Katterjohn, our superintendent, for his untiring and strenuous efforts and the time expended on the development of the new gym- nasium. We are also grateful to the School Board, Mayor Bryan, the City Council, the Business Men of the City, the Kiwanis Club, and the general cooperation of the citizens of the community. The stage equipment was made possible through re- turns from the Senior plays and the Operetta and special gifts from Kenneth H. Weyerbacher, Geo. J. Roth, Henry Christ, Geo. A. Roth, Ora Davis, Robert R. Wilson, E. C. Pelzer, C. A. and C. W. Reed, Gus G. Roth, Philip, Lutz Jr., Roger Gough and C. C. Katterjohn. Prin. Ivor J. Robinson has cooperated enthusiasti- cally through the successful sale of tickets for the plays and keeping down High School expenses so the greatest amount of money possible from the community could go to the building of the gymnasium. The Alumni and friends of B. H. S. gave $749.50 on the chairs. $200.00 of this amount was given by Parrish Fuller. This gymnasium and auditorium will prove a great and lasting benefit to the schools of Boonville. Page Twenty-� , ven IFNTRF] “WHAT HAPPENED TO JONES” STANDING LEI T TO RIGHT—Bunner Maier, Howard Shafer, Josephine Owens, John Hoover, Samuel Kelley, Marion Bohannon, Francis Riley, James Wil- kinson, Mary Janet Derr, Starlin Ryan and Mabel Hale. SEATED—Mildred Ruble and Harold Loge. The first school entertainment presented in the new auditorium was the play What Happen d to Jones,” given by the January Class of 1927. The play was a splendid success not only dramatically but financially as well. Much credit is due Miss McKown for her able directorship. Humorous incidents follow close upon each other from the moment Harold Loge enters upon the stage as Jones, a traveling sales- man selling hymn books and playing cards. • Sam Kelley and Marion Bohannon played the parts of ardent lovers. James Wilkinson, as the Professor, was supported by Mary Janet Derr as his wife. Starlin Ryan as the Bishop who looked like a ‘-package of Quaker Oats” and Francis Rilev dressed “a la Sitting Bull on the half-shell” created much laughter. Mabel Hale as Alvina, an old maid, did her best to marry Jones, but found out in the end that she was in love with the wrong man. Howard Shafer, as the superintendent of the sani- torium, and John Hoover, as the policeman, showed that they knew how to handle their men. Josephine Owen and Mildred Ruble as “sweet young things” won the ad miration of all. Bunner Maier, who played the part of Helma. a Swedish servant girl, kept the audience in an uproar with her foreign brogue and “nosey” manners. With this well chosen cast the play was declared to have been among the best ever presented by a senior class. Page Twenty-eight TOP ROW—Starlin Ryan, Paul Bradley, Ruben Bierbaum, Samuel Kelley and Richard Davis. BOTTOM ROW—Mary Irene Clark, Helen Kelley, Miss Garrison, Emmabelle Hoggatt and Ruth Nester. The senior class play “The Arrival of Kitty” was presented by the May Class of 1927. Miss Garrison proved herself very capable along the line of dramatics as was shown by the manner in which the play was presented. Ruben Bierbaum and Ruth Nester played the leading parts in upstage roles. No play is compl.te without a few laughs, so the famous Mr. Paul Bradley, the school comedian, was chosen to serve as colored porter. Mr. Bradley proved himself worthy of his office by the rare style in which he played his part. Sam Kelley disguised himself so successfully as Kitty that he and Ruth Nester looked like twins. Starlin Ryan, as Benjamin Moore, falls in love with Sam Kelley but later corrects his mistake. Ting, played by Richard Davis, is the bell hop who is really a college fellow out to make money. H len Kelley as Aunt Jane searched long for a husband and was at last rewarded. Mary Irene Clark made a sweet, little French maid. Emmabelle Hoggatt played the part of Jane, who was to wed Mr. Moore at 6 o’clock, but Bobby rescued her. This was the third play presented by Boonville high school in the last semester of the year 1926-27. The support given by the citizens of Boonville was very much appreciated. Page Twenty-nine OPERETTA TOP ROW—Cecil Clifford, Howard Shafer, Thomas Tichenor, Robert Wilkinson and Chester Werry. SECOND ROW—Miss Simpson, Glen Robinson, Lionel Koehler and James Wilkinson BOTTOM ROW—Wilma Coleman, Mabel Boudinot, Ruth Hullett, Evelyn Moffett, Lucile Carnahan, Matty Vincent and Mabel Hale. The operetta, “Once in a Blue Moon,” presented by the music department of Boonville High School under the able supervision of Miss Simpson, proved a splendid success. The beautiful setting carried the audience to California, the land of sunshine and flowers. James Wilkinson as George Taylor falls in love with Sylvia Montgom- ery, the fiancee of his college room-mate whom he is impersonating. The part of Sylvia Montgomery was taken by Miss Mabel Boudinot. Complications arise when George is falsely accused of robbing the Montgomery’s safe. After the discovery of the real robbers, George and Sylvia leave on their honeymoon. The characters were well supported by a large chorus composed of members of the Girls’ Glee Club.

Hats off to the de- bating team which turned in a record of three wins and only one defeat. Boonville defeated Mt. Vernon, Princeton and Reitz and lost to Bosse. This was a somewhat new activity in B. H. S. Miss McKown, the coach of the teams, proved herself more than worthy of her position. She was ably assisted by Miss Garrison. The team also deserves much praise for their long hours of hard study which resulted in upholding the honor of B. H. S. in the field of debating and public speaking. Here’s to the debating teams of the future—may they cultivate the same spirit that the teams of 1927 have shown.

Hale, Meyer, Clark and Campbell BOTTOM ROW—Wilkinson, Taylor, Nester, Dunaway and Eastham Coach Bateman’s Basketball Team has had the most successful season in the history of B. H. S. The team turned in a record of thirteen wins and only one loss, which was to their old rival Huntingburg. Aside from the regular basketball work Miss Bateman had charge of a flourish- ing Girls’ Athletic Club of about eighty members. Class teams under the direction of letter-girls did splendid work. With the new material developed and the three letter people who will be back, prospects are excellent for a successful season next year.

Due to the fact that the new gym was not completed until late in the sea- son, the team practiced only three days a week at the Catholic High Gym. All the teams that faced the Pioneers on the new gym floor went down in defeat. It will be necessary to develop an entirely new team next year, due to the grad- uation of the first six men..

BOYS’ BASKETBALL LETTERMEN CAPTAIN LOGE—“Skeeter” held down the left forward position in excellent form and piloted the team through a very difficult season. BATTEIGER—“Batt” played a real game at right forward. He was a dead shot, seldom missing them from his corner. FORSTON____“Steeple-chas( r” was a good center and an excellent defensive man. With his leaving goes the last of the “3 Forston Brothers” and he has truly held up their reputation. HOOVER—“Johnny” was one of the fastest floor guards in the pocket. He was an excellent dribbler and had a good eye for the basket. DAVIS____“Dick” held down the back guard position in good form. He is rated high among critics. GIRLS’ BASKETBALL LETTERMEN CAPTAIN HALE—“Red” has been the mainstay of the team for four years, distin- guished alike as guard and forward. Wherever the ball was she was right behind it with her fighting spirit that could win almost aijy game. With a “skipper” of her calibre, a winning team can easily be developed. Captain Hale’s position on next year’s team will be hard to fill. STAMBUSH—“Verly,” the pilot of last year’s team, has been considered the best guard in the pocket for several years. She, also, has been an important member of the varsity team for the last four years. Her absence on next year’s team will be a great loss. HOGGATT____“Emmy,” who made up for her diminutive size in speed and stick-to- itiveness, filled a vacancy in the guarding end. Win or lose, “Emmy” always came out smiling. CLARK—“Dead Eye” Mary missed very few foul shots during the entire season. She has been chosen by her teammates to lead the team next year. CAMPBELL—“Ireney” was “the handy man” for the team. She played any position that needed a fast, dependable player. Great work is expected from her next year. MEYER___“Katy” certainly has an eye for the basket. With her height she has been and will be a scoring ace for B. H. S. NESTER___-A girl who can fill a position in a critical moment as well as a regular is necessary to a successful team. Ruth deserves much credit and will be missed very much. Page Thirty-five FOOTBALL TOP ROW—Coach McCool, Tichenor, Bateman and Fisher SECOND ROW—Bradley, Hay, Capt.

Football is becoming more popular every year and with six letter men back Boonville should have another successful season next year.

Here Page Thirly-six FOOTBALL LETTEKMEN CAPTAIN HOOVER—“Johnny'’ held down the full back position and led the team in great style. With his having goes one of the greatest football players in the history of the school. Johnny made the whole State take notice. B. H. S. will suffer very much by his departure. KELLEY—“Sammy” also starr d in back field. He was Hoover’s running mate for four years. Sammy was always a danger to the opposing team through his ability to run 80 cr 90 yards for a touchdown. He also leaves B. H. S. this year. LOGE—“Skeeter” wras the third memb:r of that famous trio, Hoover, Kelley and Loge, which formed one of the greatest backfieids ever known in B. H. S. “Skeeter” was a wizard at catching passes and carrying back punts. He also graduates. The passing of this famous trio marks the end of three of the greatest athletic careers ever known in the history of the school. HAY—“Chesty” played a good brand of football for his first year in the back field. He has two years left and ought to be a “whizz before the end of that time. WITTMER—“Whit” played a whal? of a game at right tackle. In fact, he played so well that he was chosen to lead the team next year. Here’s hoping that he has a very successful season. BAUM—“Eckeer,” Jeff’s brother Julius, the strongest little man in the line, played a heady game at guard. The opposing coaches always said to their men as they sent them in, “Get Number 3.” “Eckeer” has two years left. STAMPS—“Jimmy” played left tackle. He has another year left and football fans are expecting much from him from the showing made during this first year. He played like a veteran. FISHER—“Country” finished his football career this season. He was as hard as a stone wall when it came to breaking up end runs. B. H. S. surely hates to 3ee him leave. DAVIS—“Dick” was noted for his accurate passing at the pivot position. His loss through graduation will be felt very much. BRADLEY—Paul played left guard and did it in big style. He was the clown of the team and often made his opponents laugh so that they couldn’t play football. BATTEIGER—“Batt” played right end. He was small but made up for that with his fighting spirit. “Batt’s” leaving will be a heavy loss to B. H. S. WERRY—“Dead-wagon” also played right end. He has two years left and ought to develop into a whale of an end. McKINNEY—“Hard-boiled Mac” was the hardest man in the line. In the two years left to him he will probably develop into a heavy “bone crusher.” MEYER—Fred played guard and always showed up well when put in the game. Too bad he graduates this year. HEDGES—Tommy!? only fault was his lack of size. However, he was hard as nails and hit them all, big or little. Page Thirty-seven TRACK TOP ROW—Crowder, Johnson, Kinder, R. Wilkinson, Coach MeCool, Loge, McKinney, Ryan and Gowens SECOND ROW—Hoover, Bat: man, Hay, Forston, Capt. Kelley, J. Wilkinson and Rhoades BOTTOM ROW—Stewart, Lutz, Baum, Byers and Wittmer Coach McCool’s track artists, under leadership of Capt. Sam Kelley, have made a very good showing this season. They first won the Warrick-Spencer meet and then took Central for a trimming. Boonville placed second in a triangular meet with Reitz and Tell City. With two veterans from last year’s team, which took the sec- tional by storm, B. H. S. placed fourth in the sectional this year. Capt. Kelley, Loge and Forston went up-state. Kelley entered in the 440-yd. dash, Loge in the pole vault and Forston in the high hurdles. Loge took fifth in the state meet. Bateman and Rhoades were the distance runners. Crowder and Hay put the shot. Loge, Hay, DeForest and Kelley made up the relay team, which won the half-mile relay at the Warrick-Spencer Meet. Page Thirty-eight BASEBALL TOP ROW—Hoover, Robinson, Coach Bennett, Forston and Christmas SECOND ROW—Ellis, Gore, Loge, Capt. Batteiger, Shafer and Rhoades BOTTOM ROW—Wilkinson, Koehler, Fisher, Hedges and Lenn Due to the fact that a high school league was organized last year Baseball has started on an upward journey. Coach Bennett developed one of the fastest Baseball teams ever known in the history of the school. Material was very good. Captain Batteiger and Loge both finished their fourth year of Baseball. Boonville started the season by whitewashing Cynthiana in an exhibition game 10-0. Then came the first game of the League scheduled with Bosse. B. H. S. out-hit Bosse and won the slugging match 8-7. Owensville was next to go down in easy de- feat by � score of 9-0. Sweet revenge came next when B. H. S. defeated Central 6-3 on Hemc-nway Field. The hardest game of the season was when B. H. S. defeated the fast Douglas team in a pitchers’ duel between Cannon and Robinson, score 2-1. Then came the first defeat of the season, when Reitz trounced the Pioneers 7-4. Boonville and Reitz being tied for the League leadership, a final game was played at Eagles’ Park, Evansville, and Boonville lost, 1 to 0. The day previous Boonville lost to Prince- ton, 8 to 7.
