Indiana We, the Seniors of 1945, Wish to dedicate this edition of the Sprig O' Mint to the marvels of communication. Communication, sometimes called the cement of Ameri- can citizenship, is vitally important in any phase of life. In a democracy, the free movement of ideas and the un- restricted distribution of information are particularly es- sential. Without a public opinion enlightened by such an exchange of thought, representative government cannot exist. In our school, we are very fortunate in having a new, modern system of communication-the public address system. It is a system which can save much time and which helps conduct the school program much more efficiently. Our public address system is used not only for conveying announcements but also for molding stu- dent opinion and developing good citizenship, We, as students, consider ourselves very fortunate in having this conveniencep and, as Seniors, wish to dedi- cate the annual this year to the value of the public ad- dress system in hopes that the students following us will never cease to appreciate it. Esther Reidenbach, Editor. 1 Q Deane E.

Our basketball team- consisting of brave and barking Bob Kipfer as Captain, Vernon Cbig-boyl Carothers, Dale tFrostyl Freeze, Calvin tCoolidgel Koontz, Raymond CRed7 Mayer, William CTNTD Leeper, Owen tStinkyl Stine, and a few underclassmen--is fighting hard this year and may it have mercy on its devoted student manager, Bob Carson. Guidance room activity is mostly credited, in room 214, to Shively's brainstorrns which he calls good jokes. And then, of course, room 208 is always too busy for activities. There are nine senior members in the band, six 4-H members, six F. F. A. members, twelve girls in G. A. A., six members in Orchestra, six in Chorus. There are the two senior cheerleaders, Martha Hurt and Carol Yocum. ln the Hi-Y, we find Dale Freeze as president and his ten attentive senior members, including publicity manager Robert Kipfer, treasurer Robert Carson, and Sergeant of Arms Calvin Koontz. ln the new organization of Sunshine girls this year, Amelia Eberly is president and Neva Heinke, treasurer, with twenty-five senior girls that shine wholeheartedly for the organization, ln the Student Council, peeking from under his stack of papers, is president Raymond Mayer from room 214. From room 208 come Bob Kipfer, vice-president and his assistant, Donna Cripe. Through the Armed Forces lnstitute, Herbert Mitchell and Dale Edel have been granted four credits for basic trainingrfwhich qualifies them to receive their high school diplomas with the class of l945. During the year several boys have responded to the call of Uncle Sam. Vern Troup entered the Army in September. Vernon Carothers and Calvin Koontz passed their physical examinations lor induction into the army. Don Bowser was accepted into theArrny Specialized Training Corps and left school in Ianuary, Edwin Vernon and Art Muncy were accepted in the Army Air Corps and called in March. The boys passing their air crewman test were Bill Leeper, Gerald Mast, lunior Stine, and Charles Beery. Don Walterhouse enlisted as a navy air crewman. In conclusion, we grant that the hall of good ole Bremen may ring endlessly from the clatter of the feet of couples -Shirley Sieber and William Leeper, Neva l-leinlce and Vernon Carothers, Amelia Eberly and Owen Stine, Carolyn Legner and Robert Carson, etc. President, William Leepery Vice-president, Betty Corl: Secretary, Ruth Stuntzg Treasurer, Owen Stine.

Nm 'A 4013- Vfm 2' if-Zh... -G0 AK perm On a beautiful September morning in 1932 seventeen little boys and girls, now present Seniors, started their school career at the old Bremen school. Our first teacher was Mrs. Arthur Keller, formerly Miss O'Connor, who spent the entire year trying to teach us something without much success. The seventeen who started were Robert Carson, Dean Farrer, Lawrence Edel, Maynard Dietrich, Bill Leeper, Martha Huff, Methabelle Haenes, Geneva Kiefer, Bob Kipfer, Phyllis Reed, Lyle Redman, Mary Mar- burger, Dewey Martin, Gerald Mast, Bob Heminger, and Io Ann Stoller. In our first year we gained Gerald and Vernon Carothers from Lapaz, and in our second year lost Bill Leeper and Martha Huff, and gained Calvin Koontz and Neva Heinke. In 1934, when we were un- der the guidance of Miss luanita Bolby, Donna Lee Cripe entered from North Liberty, and Lyle Redman left to go tothe Lutheran School. Having attained the level of fourth graders, our teacher being Miss Ardis Weisshaar, we acquired two new members: Bill Leeper back from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, and Charles Beery from Sunnyside. In our fifth year under the guidance of Miss Roxie Smith, we were joined by Bob Lorig from South Mil- ford: Raymond Mayer from Villa Park, Illinois: and Hazel Stayton from Ohio. Neva Heinke, and Charles Berry left. In 1938, when our teacher was Miss Lottie Hulse, Ioyce Bowser came to Bremen from Misha- waka. ' When the new school was finished in 1939, our class grew considerably larger. Roland Weil, Ruth Stuntz, Don Walterhouse, Vern Troup, and Donald Bowser came from Consolidated No. 1: Edith Zillmer, Owen Balsley, Neva Heinke and Bob Kipfer came from Sunnyside: Edwin Vernon, Berdene Ringenberg, Martha Huff, Evelyn Wilson, Lois Graverson, Charles Beery, Betty Heckaman, Betty Corl, and Mary Fowler ca,rne from Muncie: Shirley Seiber came from Akron, Indiana: Esther Reidenbach from Roches- ter, Indiana: and Theda Hill from Hume, Illinois. Four teachers were added to the junior high fac- ulty: Iohn Baird, Milo Stump, Lowell Fredrick, and Glenn Klinedinst. x By the time we reached the eighth grade we had become acquainted with the new students and teachers and knew our way around the new school. Owen Stine came from Bourbon, while Gerald and Vernon Carothers left to go to Madison. , A We started high school with several new students: leanette Holderman, Bill Sahlhoff, Ruth Sahlhoff, Eldon Roeder, Carolyn Legner, and Lyle Redman came from the Lutheran School: Arthur 'Muncy came from South Bend: and Dale Freeze and Eleanor Bishop came from Mishawaka, Now we were sophomores and felt much better than we had last year when we were green freshmen. Alice Perry joined us from Argos, and Amelia Eberly, from Mishawaka: while Don Walterhouse left for a year. ln our junior year with its many activities- class play, magazine sales, physical fitness-Gerald and Vern- on Carothers came back from Madison: Margaret Brockmueller from Mishawaka, and Devon Ogle from Madison. Donald Walterhouse, who left in the sophomore year, returned to Bremen from Rantoul, Illi- nois, during his senior year. Ieanette Holderman went to Central High School in South Bend to acquire necessary credits to enter Indiana University last fall: however, she will receive her diploma from Bremen. Early last fall Vern Troup entered the army.

H. S. are the Iuniors, who through no fault of their own, have managed to live up to the quality of refinement which they brought upon themselves. Their two hundred dollar fund was raised by selling magazinesfwhich, as Hayes will probably tell you, is pretty good salesmanship. As we go deeper into the functions of the class, we notice that it is bubbling over with ac- tivities with its thirteen members in the band, seven in the orchestra, thirteen in G. A. A., three in Concert Choir, thirteen in Glee Club, four in Mixed Chorus, eleven in 4-H, twenty-six in the Sunshine Society, and seven in F. F. A. The lunior Play this year was Miss Collegiate, and anyone who saw it will say it was tops , The main characters were Lois Brown and lack Swank. Representatives to the Student Council are Elery Wolfe from room 211, and Richard Hoch- stetler from room 206. lunior Hi-Y members are lim Clindaniel, Eldon Fore, Ierry Hemminger, Richard Hochstetler, Glen Laudeman, lack Swank and Bernard Tyler. ln Iournalism we find Lois Brown as editor of the We , Betty Miller, Sally Schlemmer, lane Dietrich, Carolyn Schumacher, and Marilyn Zimmer. The lunior boys playing basketball this year are Lester Bradford, lerry Hemminger, lack Swank, and Bernard Tyler. May we wish the Iunior Class good luck in all they are doing, and may they do more when they become dignified Seniors of Bremen. Lest we forget may we also hope that the lovelight will continue to burn brightly on the Bradford-Scott, Swank-Brown, and Miller-Kuntz romances for we know how it is after twelve long years. iw I: S1ilI16Q' E1:c!vf1, 11111, EUIIINYI. 111 fu'-Prsfi Boyer, L-fain' E111it rd, 1 111 I-: vm., LUIS Eziw , fl 1:: 1 11, I:'1,1 1' l'l111df11111-1 ww Il: 1111s T1-Lt11c11 10111 Ed-11, H1-fly lI1vf1r1, Eldczx Frfre, 1111111 F1 f,k- fi--11-'R H1113 Y1 15341111 Pfimtzff L .1 I 1+, 111111111 H11-1195 vw III: V1rq1r11.1 Hzrwy, AH1v111 If'I1wk1:11::1, jerry He111::.111f1H1, 1.211111 H-'wI1:1 Thr, R1C?1'1rc1 H'5,'E1:1 ' l :11 Hutt, Mlllvlrd Hummwl, K11u:i:11J11 w IV: Ruth K1111tz, GE--11 L111rl-X111111, M1l1ireci Mirtm, R1u?1'1rd M 11'-11: F4111-,' T-.5115 r Cxzcf 3311- 1, Q 111 I.'I1i111, M111y 11114111 Iunw M11lv1 .ww V: H111'111on M11-'Eu-Q, 1111111111111 l1115', V12-9 Re-.1kQr, Hfleu He-fd 5-1 f'x1.1.

The Sophomores are presided over by those three worthy gentlemen in student council: Bob Birkey, our drummer boy: Dean Manges and Wallace Vander Velde-there's two men who really are ,up in the World. ' You can't be in any activity in which there aren't a few Sophomores: not that we mind, ofcourse. This year there are six members in the band: the 4-H boasts of thirteen Sophies: four Sophomore nightingales belong to Glee Club: six are in Concert Choir: four were lucky enough to get into that exclusive boy's club known as Hi-Y: five joined F. F. A., seven tried their luck at Mixed Chorus: six joined Iournalismp three -slave away as librarians, seven of the athletic type are in G. A. A., andlthen, last but not least, is the one little Starduster. Those Sophomores that have already started down Romance Road are lim Marshall and Betty Miller, Willadean Kepler and Ierry Hemminger, Roland Mason and Gloria Troup, Martha Nusbaum and Lawrence Edel, Wayne Ellis and Opal Booker, Wanda Brown and Ed- ward Miller, Russell Flora and Virginia Franklin, and Betty Bellman and Lyle Biller. You can ration tires, shoes, and gas but you can't ration love. Considering the looks of the Sophomore crop now, I would say that Bremen High is go- ing to have a choice crop of Seniors in another two years. , 4? S Y g, ..4 -11 f' ,A -11 ...LL Q ' xv A' P. . K .

G flau,vg79 5 A gentle September breeze wafted a fine group of students from junior high into the Freshman class this year. They came with no respect in their hearts for the upper classmen, but in a few days dropped very quietly into their proper niche and since have found that high school is something other than fun and giggles. After finding out that high school was not all play, they decided to settle down for their studies. They started the year giving reports, having quiz programs such as Who's Who in America , and Capitals oi the States during guidance periods. They have several members who play on the basketball second team. Eight of them de- cided to take part in the band: two went out for art activity: five fiddle on string intruments: six yodel in the mixed chorus: eight girls seem to think G. A. A. would be fun: three boys de- cided to join Hi-Y: while other members-of the class seem to think that airplane modeling, 4-H, artscratt, and doing nothing se-em to fit their ideas. In Miss Monhaut's room, Vere Shenefield was chosen to be the representative for Student Council. Royce Burke was chosen in Mr. Kepler's room, and Devon Pittman was elected for Mrs. Molebash's room. They must be quite popular. None of us will forget that whirl wind romance of Boyce Burke and Betty Unsicker. Vere Shenefield and Deloris Myhre seem to be hitting it off fine. Arlene Aker seemed to think Rob- ert Hueni was tops. Mary Lou Arch seems to take quite an interest in lim Huff., These are subject to change without notice. By the time the Freshman class reaches its Senior year, they will come quite close to being an equal to The Senior Class this year. t wx is F 5 Q Q P W5 w v if-1 x 1 Cf Kg in-wa I-W 'V .1-1 4 Y y .

Early in laiiuary, Miss Mary Ken- dall, coedirector oi the May Day Festival, had the high school students vote for their choice oi the Senior boy and girl to reign May Day, The last oi Iariuary the Iuniors, under Miss Agnes Brumiti and Mr. Robert Hayes, selected their sovereigns to lead the grand march at the lunior-Senior Prom in April. Qrdif narily these reigning kings and queens would not have been selected until the last oi March or April. ' I ,wr iw Coach E. L. Shively's soft ball team had a fairly successful season, Since the two previous years, Bremen has not participated in soft ball becausebof transportation difficulties, Coach Shively had to use boys who had little experienceeMayer being the only carry over. Coach Shively's team got off on the right foot by beating the Bourbon Comets 7,9 in a thrilling extra 2 innings game. Bremen in its second game of the season received a bad trimming4l2-9, from the Madi- son team because of its superior experience of previous years. ln the next game a spirited Bourbon team came to Bremen and beat our boys in a close game, 4-3, The Bremen boys, learning fast, came back into the county tourney by rolling over a well- experience Tippecanoe team, by a score of 15-7. In the second game, Argos was next to fall before our hard hitting team l-ll. Our fielders- Mitchell, Freeze, Bradford, and Vander Velde did very well making no errors. The third and final game of the tournament found the Brem- en Lions facing a tough, well-experienced West-Hi team. Bremen fell behind in the first inning, after nine consecutive walks, letting the yellow-jackets score ll runs. However, the Bremen team held its own for the rest of the game. Carothers, pitcher for the Lions, did very well in pitching two straight games, having to be relieved in the final game. The score was 21 to ll. Bmkatball Boss ot the Hardwood, small, never optimistic, Everett Shiv'ely is Bremen's Coach. He started his athletic career at his home town playing baseball and basketball. After this he went to Ball State Teacher's College and won letters in basketball, football and baseball?- baseball being his favorite sport. Then he went to Winamac and coached there five years. In 1940 he came to Bremen High School, All coaches have assistants, and Shive's is Horace Fulps. Fulps went to college at Central Normal, where he received letters in baseball, basketball, and track. He is assistant coach of basketball and baseball, and coach ot the track team. Next we take up the managers. Robert Carson is the Senior Manager and Rulo Siefer is Kits assistant. lt is their job to keep a record of all the equipment and to know where it is when whoever wants it wants it. ' Despite the tact that the l944-45 team was not what you would call a championship team, we are proud ot its accomplishments as though it had brought a title for our school. Lacking experience in vital spots, the squad, nevertheless, displayed a rare spirit and was a dangerous foe against any opposition. The brilliant games against Plymouth at Plymouth and Walkerton, although both ended in defeats, clearly showed the capabilities and courage of the 1945 combination.

Bob Kipter is a veteran from last year and was one of the starting tive in all the garnes this year except one. But it takes tive players to rnake a tearn. Bob won this years liiwanf is award tor athletics. Mayer, who played center position was a regular and dependable player. l-le has had two years an the varsity team and was high point nian lor the year. Mayer, who fouled out in 6 different games was always in there fighting. Freeze, another regular with one year's previous experience, was our best defense man Qld rough and ready big game was at Argos where he scored l6 points before being hurt and taken out ol the ganieg however, before long he asking to go leack ing he did and scored 2 rncre points. This shows the spirit and deterinination this guard had. Swank, a iunior, played guard and could be depended on to be a good deiensive man, a tricky shot, and a good ball liandlerg he added speed to the team. Does Brenien have reserves? Bremen has the bestg Leeper, a senior, played guard and Bill could he depended an to put up a scrap. l-le gave no iavors and he asked none. He was a player in niast ot the amines. Stine, a senior, was the least played oi the seniors, but he could be depended on to sink a lang one from the outside court or get a tricky rebound trorn the backboard.

We never could get the lead. XBremen 24 Ncxppcmee 29 We seemed to be having the same trouble in this game as the last, although playing a very good defensive game and holding a veteran opponent to a low score, V 5LBrexnen 21 Culver 52 In the first quarter, we kept pace with a veteran Culver team-the score being tied 6 all. However, the Lions could not keep pace with the hard working Indians, and therefore, lost their third game of the year. ,ramen 21 Syracuse 41 'V Another veteran team of young men came to town and walked away with a game at the Lions' ex- pense. Bremen 18 Nappanee 33 The Lions journeyed to Nappanee with the idea in mind of avenging an earlier season defeat but came home the losers. Coach Shively substituted freely allowing our reserves more experience. Bremen 24 Knox 32 lt seems that the trip to Knox was to no avail as the Lions were again denied their first victory of the season. We played a very good defensive game but were very weak on offense. The halftime score was 15 to 12 in favor of Knox. Wremen 20 Plymouth 21 Although losing in the last 30 seconds of play, the Lions played their best garne of the season. A new member, Kiefer, was brought up from the second team and proved a big help in holding Ply- mouth's hard driving team. XJ Bremen 31 Madison 29 After seven defeats, the Lions managed to defeat the Panthers in a fast, exciting game which kept the fans on their feet most of the time. Holding dn 18 to 17 margin at the half, the Lions continued to hold their own and won out with Mayer taking the scoring honors with ll points. '-Qremen 37 Lapaz 34 The Lions traveled to Lapaz and played a game in which neither team could get very far ahead. Although we held the lead at the end of each period. Lapaz was very strong and at times were ahead 2 to 3 points. Forty personal fouls were called in this game. remen 38 Wakarusa 51 The Lions just couldn't hold the hard-driving, accurate-shooting Indians and fell behind 27 to 9 at the half. We gained some ground during the last half but were unable to overtake the victors. Kiefer scor- ed IZ points for the Lions. . li Bremen 25 Winamac 34 h At the end of the first quarter Winamac led 9 to 5: but in the second quarter, Bremen came back strong and forged into the lead 13 to ll. However, Winamac, gaining new power, took the lead never to be threatened after the third period. lJBremen 35--Tippecanoe 23 The Lions went to the Tourney with the intentions that this year was not Qoing to be. a repetition of last year, In the second quarter, they started to put on the heat holding an 18 to 8 advantage at the halftime. From then on, it was more or less a matter of time as the Lions consistently hit the hoop. 'H 48 t , 2 7 48n4lmtbalL 5 Bremen 36-Bourbon 34 In this game the Lions proved what a good team they really have. With the score very close and Bremen holding the lead with one-half minute to go, Bourbon tied the score. The game went into an overtime session in which Kipfer scored three points and Swank one to give us a well-earned victory, which qualified the Lions to play Culver in final game of Tourney. Bremen 18-Culver 28 ' '- After very gruelling games in the afternoon neither team could get going, so to speak, and Cul- ver just showed its advantage in experience by beating us in a low scoring game which saw Swank make four field goals for 8 of our points. Swank was also second in scoring for the entire tournament.

Witnesses: Mrs. Ava Seiler Fred Knoblock Charles Eslinqer Signed: The Class of 1945 ..0 Ladies and gentlemen, you are now listening to station B.H.S. located on top of the standpipe and operating on 1945 kilocycles. The following program comes to you through the courtesy of Ca1vin's Greenhouse, growers of bigger and better lilies, cultivated by Iunior Stine, and Farrer's Dairy Farm, which at present is supplying you with its health building dairy products-Farrer's the milkman too. The members of the studio audience are being ushered to their seats by Ieanette Holderman and Shirley Seiloer. This is announcer, William Leeper, now turning the show over to that brilliant master of words none other than Charles Beery, master of ceremonies of that exciting program-Va- riety Tidbits of 1945. Charles Beery--opening the program this evening, that master of music, the one and only and one Dewey Martin, will lead his world famous musicians in a rousing march. Let me introduce you to some of its illustrious members-IoAnn Stoller playing the tuba: great Don Walterhouse giving all he's got on that music making piccolo: Bob Heminger on the chimes: Roland Weil, drums: Martha Hutt, trombone: Gerald Mast, clarinet: Raymond Mayer, the oboe: Edith Zillmer, the trumpet. .,.. Music . . . . . Noisy aren't they? Now we'l1 hear that renowned quartet-Carolyn Legner, Betty Heckaman, Berdene Ringenberg, and Margaret Brockmueller warbling that delightful commercial-milk and roses . . . Commercial . . Now you can all listen again. Our engineers, Edwin Vernon and Maynard Dietrich, are motioning that it is time for the next at- traction: it's the comical nonsense of Devon Ogle, the clown, and his troop of comedians-Ruth Sahl- hoff, Alice Perry, Lois Graverson, and Geneva Kiefer . . . Nonsense , . . Now that Swoon Crooner of the air tl-lot Airl Art Muncy will render that current favorite, The Old Gray Mare . . . the mare . . . That's great, Art. A few more lessons and you'll have Bing worrying. Now we present that well-known singer of radio and screen. Brace yourselves for the great surprise of the evening's entertainment C? ?l. It's none other than Loren Walker and his group of songsters notorious over the whole world. This group is made up of many amateur stars. Tonight Verny Car- others will sing the solo part of Old Black Ioe , . . Song . . . Concluding the musical portion of our program, we 'hear Lyle Redman, Mary Marburger, Esther Beidenbach, William Sahlhoff, and Eldon Roeder and oh yesl Ruth Stuntz is in this group too-be- moaning the fact that I Ain't Got Nobody . . . Song . . . Now let us turn to drama in its highest sense. The stars of the play are Carol Yocum and Amelia Eberly. The supporting cast includes Gerald Carothers, Eleanor Bishop, Bob Carson and Methabelle Haenes. lt's a bedtime story just for kiddies . . , Story . . . Now all you freshmen, since it's past your bedtime, say nightie night and climb into bed cheerfully. No evening would be complete if we did not include a mystery thriller with some of the more talented individuals. Co-starring, we have Don Bowser as Sherlock Holmes and Robert Kipfer as the incredible Dr. Watson. Tonight's true-to-life mystery concerns a scandalous murder, committed in a beauty parlor operated by Neva Heinke and Theda Hill, who are now being questioned by Holmes of Scotland Yard. Those persons known to frequent Heinke-Hill's place are Evelyn Wilson, Hazel Stayton, Mary Fowler and Ioyce Bowser. A certain Vern Troup and Dale Freeze are believed to be connected in some way with the crime. Now listen carefully and maybe you can catch the murderer . . . Hair raising melodrama . . . Surprised! Say, I forget to say that any names mentioned are fictitious and any similarity to any person living or dead is purely coincidental. Our sponsors don't want any lawsuits, Now for that part of the show that you've all been anticipating-the announcement of the contest winners who will star in This Can't Be Love soon to open on Broadway. Tonight they'll play that torrid love scene: those members of' the cast taking part are Owen Balsley, Donna Cripe, Betty Corl, and Phyllis Reed. The man shortage is still the big issue of the day . . . Love scene . . . Well, Phyllis Reed got the man. So until we again bring you this program, which we hope you liked, in behalf of the Senior Class of 45, I, Bill Leeper, as announcer, wish to say good-bye to good old Bremen High. We're sure we can never forget the twelve short years spent in school and the good time had in classes. Don't tor- get that, although we could have studied more than we did, we want to leave with the feeling that we didn't make any of you teachers and students too disgusted with us. We feel that teachers were once seniors and you underclassmen will someday be seniors with luck and our best wishes. As we leave, we notice that Shorty Long and Hunk Edel have them rolling in the aisles. No, the usher came and took the dice away from them. Well, that's too bad for the boys but so life goes. So long, everybody this is Station B, H. S. leaving the air. tPermanently, you hopell Um Boo The members of the Senior Class wish to express their appreciation for the generous contributions made by the firms and individuals Whose names are listed. Only through their generosity was the 1945 Sprig O' Mint possible. Iohn Stoller Bremen Telephone Co. Lew Cox Modern Beauty Shop Betty May Shoppe Haenes Ice Cream Co. W. L.
