Horace, or 'AHoot , as we came to call that wise old bird through the days when he was working with us on this edition of the Hoosier Owl , came to Bryant in September, 1900, to advise the class of '01 during its senior year. Since that time he has kept his vigil, his omniscient eye recording and storing for this class of '50 all the happy days seniors have spent at B.H.S. since that memorable day fifty years ago. Now, with Hoot as our guide, recall with us the various activities of 1949-50, and with him, meet these seniors of other years. Published By The Senior Class OF Bryant High School 1950 1 Dedication -I To Hoot , the Bryant Owl, symbol of a half century of school days at B. H. S., We the senior class of 1950, do affectionately ded- icate this issue of the Hoosier Owl. To us he is the spirit and essence of our days at B. H. S. He typifies all the happy mem- ories of al.most six hundred seniors. May he be an inspiration to the seniors of the future--a symbol of progress, of true education, of sports manship, of a spirit fighting always for a better B. H. S. Z r .Administration I Q v - QQQJ34 Nl . V' .4f,1 ' ul Ihllliuil HOOT was no stranger to our principal for they had been co-workers since Mr. Glentzer had return- ed to Bryant as principal in the fall of 1947. As teach- er and friend, Mr. Glentzer has made of our school a smooth running and up-to-date school. Hoot, however, did help to break in two new office girls, Nadine Hoskins, senior, and Estelle Laux, junior. Under his guidance these girls have assisted Mr. Glentzer in many routine tasks. 4 Our Administrators Upon the shoulders of these three men, Mr. Glentzer, Mr. Keller, and Mr. Logan, rests the responsibility of run- ning s successful school. When we returned to school last year. we found many improvements. The science room had been enlarged by mov- ing the hall partition and physics materials had been supplied. The old beliry tower had been repaired and the junk room under it had been cleaned, plastered, and painted to make a modern annual room. A large refrigerator and a deep freeze had been added to cafeteria equipment. A pantry and supply room was made of the east hall of room Z. The shop was cleaned, re-equipped, and put into running condition. During the year we added many new books to our school library. Hoot joins us in a unanimous vote of approval for these men for their service to our school. PRINCIPAL LEE G.

At last there was dark- ness and I knew no more. I was floating upward when suddenly there loomed before me a great white gate.

' ' X P' x X-Ili' Mr. Glentzer, how did you get here? Well, you see, I died of sorrow when the class of MSO graduated from Bryant, so St. Peter made me his assistant. I am sure they would all be delighted to know you thought so much about them all. Now since I am here what are you going to do with me? I can't play a harp you know. Well, I do have something I wish you would do for me. he replied. I want you to go back to Bryant each day and bring me back a report of what each member of the class is doing. Get down to work now. So down I came and as I walked down Main Street I walked up to a house and knocked, and who should answer the door but our former class president, Donna Moore, dressed in a black dress and white apron. She invited me in and told me she was working as a maid for the Mr. and Mrs. Norman Miller's. They were entertaining that night and Mr. and Mrs. Charles Fifer had already arrived. .Tust then did I recognize that Mrs. Miller was my former classmate, Thelma Mumby. I then slipped away and entered a new office building which I had never seen, and as I passed a door I saw the sign Roseamond Axe, Judge of Court . She had taken a job in a law office and had worked herself up to judge. On I went down the hall and came next to an office of F. Dale Craig, M.D. who had a wonderful practice. I entered and he said he owed much of his success to his pretty little nurse, Phyllis Smith. The next day I wandered out in the country and I stopped at a little white house. As I walk- ed up the walk I was met by one of my very good friends--Fredia Nelson Billington--followed by three little boys and twin girls. The next day I saw a sign l'Thelma's Beauty Shoppe and entering I found Thelrna Longnecker as the owner of Bryant's new modern-Beauty Shoppe. As I was about to leave I happened to see under the hair dryer a familiar face and recognized Betty Hough. She had just returned from Hollywood where she had just finished making a picture, The Best Years of Your Life. Also starring in the picture is Herbert Masters, our basketball star of 50 . There was a dull murmering in my ears, then over me stood two persons in white. Was it possible I had at last got to Heaven? No, they weren't angels but were nurses. It was all just a nightmare. 18 ed on it and a man with a long white robe peer- Oncv IH 4 whxlv Hou! Mmght thc M-nmra .nt xx ark. aonwtinxvs hc jusl I .aught tha nm.

Mr. Vernon Hoffman has been added to our faculty to teach shop. Mr. Hoffman has done much to improve the shop with the help of the boys in the classes. The tools have their regular places in the tool room and the work tables have been scraped to make them look like new and braced to make them stronger. Much has been done to improve the conditions in the shop besides the different projects the boys have made. There is one girl in class. There are three classes in the afternoon. First period after dinner the Jr. high have class, second period the freshmen have class, and the last period the sophomores, juniors, and seniors have class. 'S ..

Those seniors think they can make us green freshrnen do any thing they want us to. On October 5, 1949, we girls were told to wear very unusual hairdos, gunny sack skirts, two kinds of slippers. The boys were to wear dresses and carry dollsg of course, some of them didn't. A few of them painted their lips and cheeks. During activity period the student council and the seniors put on a program with the freshmen. Then you can see what happened to us, if you look at the bottom of the page. Oh well, I guess we had fun anyway, and lived through it. It was a wonderful day to be initiated into high school, even though everyone calls us green freshmen .

Junior Play The Seniors of SO chose for their annual production two one-act plays, Butch and 'His First Girl . Butch , a comedy by Mary MacDonald, is about Annabel, Phyllis Smith, a fifteen-year-old girl who had delighted in the name Butch until her older sister Katherine, Nadine Hoskins, gave a grown-up party . Her mother, Fredia Nelson and Petunia, Betty Hough, the colored maid, ,help 'her prepare for the party. Jerry, Donna Moore, her girl friend sticks around to see her in her glad rags. Substituting for one of the young la- dies at the party, Annabel decides she would ra- ther be plain Butch even though Kenneth Graham, Herbert Masters, the Princeton man calls her Beautiful and invites her to dance. Butch thinks her partner is a bore until she finds that he is really Kenneth's younger brother, Stinky , Norman Miller. His First Girl , is a comedy of youth by Thomas O. Hove. Dean Powers fPhilip Polingl, fifteen years old, straining to be a man, and con- sequently making his boyishness so much more obvious, had decided that Marianne Thomson, Thelma Longnecker, is about the most attractive creature he had ever met and that she must be his first girl. However, Chester Carneron, Herbert Masters, his best chum, is also a suitor for her hand and trouble begins when Dean tries to get his first date with Marianne. His mother, Roseamond Axe, compels him to serve as a man- ikin, put on his sister's dress, and he is mighty uncomfortable while she sews up the hem. One difficulty after another arises as he struggles to win Marianne's favor. The climax comes when he engages in fistic combat with Chester who called him a sissy when he suddenly entered and discovered Dean wearingfhis sister's dress. His sister is played by Thelma Mumby. A program was given between acts by Philip Poling, Louis Wagner, Norman Miller, Nadine Hoskins, Betty Hough, Phyllis Smith, Roseamond Axe, Trudy Wagner, Mary Agnes Post, Mary Lu Bailey, Thelma Mumby, Linda Montgomery, and Shirley Moore.

Neither tells the other of the children at home, three in one household and two in the other. The youngs- EQJ Q5 ters, having heard of the big surprise and not feeling any too good about it, ' ' K- ' plan to upset the matrimonial apple cart by acting their worst before their prospective step-parents. One will have fits, another will talk baby-talk, a third play the role of a holy terror. Sammie becomes a kleptomaniac and worse, and Doris, having had an operation, will harp on that. What a mix.-up and what fun in the telling. After almost two hours of side-splitting laughter Agnes and Henry emerge victorious and the kids are ready to accept their new parents. 56 The Student Council The student council members are, from left to right: Patty Srnithee, eighth gradeg Carol Murphy, Junior: Lee Glentzer, Nadine Hoskins, Seniorg Neil Logan, Freshman: Robert Garlinger, seventh gradeg Edward Minch, Sophomore. The student council had charge of many things this year, some of them were: The Junior Red Cross, The March of Dimes, The election of yell leaders, which we think gives everyone a fair chance to try out if they want to, Chili Supper tickets, and alternate Wednesday assembly periods. Each class has charge of the assembly once during the year. 57 .Qoninr Trib - i 1 l 58 ,,,.,.Jv-- 'V . - - ,f1, 'l' mi.: ,-1. . S Qis ' ' ff' f f wk I X i M lsff' 5 ' P P m A 5 r u' 1 LQQ.

This accounted partially for a poor season for the Owls. Our baseball season opened with the Owls playing the Pollngtown Yellow-Jackets on our heme diamond with the Owls winning by a score of 9 to 6. Then after further practice the Owls traveled to Madison to play the kittens on September 23. After playing for 6 innings, the score was tied up at l to l. Starting in the top hal! of the seventh inning the Owls scored 3 more runs to the kittens 0 to win by a score of 4 to l. After beating the kittens the Owls got more confidence ln them- selves. On September 27th the Owls played host to a highly rated Gray team with whom no team had yet gone a lull seven lnnlngs: however, the Owls, playing a fair brand of hall, gave the Redbirds a rough game which finally ended with the Redbirds winning '13 to 9. Alter losing their llrst game with them, the Owls were set to win their next game .with the Pennville Bulldogs on the latters' diamond, but lost by a score of 18 to 16. Then on October 10 they met the Madison Tomcats agaln to see who played the Gray ltedblrds for the County title. The Owls lost by a score el 8 to Z. This ended the Owls season with a record of Z wins and J losses. s SEASON SCHEDULE Bryant-49-.. ,,,.., Poling-6 Bryant-4 , . . , , .Madison-L Bryant-9 , , , , . .

Considering the lack of height the Baby Owls did well for themselves, winning all except two games. The boys did best in the game against a strong Portland panther team in which the Baby Owls pulled a big surprise on their bigger brothers by upsetting them Z1 to 19. If Bryant gets a gym and these boys continue to play ball as they have played the Junior High, Bryant should be tough for these foes in the next few years. 76' I FIRST TEAM YELL LEADERS Estella Laux and Carol Murphy SECOND TEAM YELL LEADERS Norma and Janet Hoskins 77 Our Janitor--Joe Mlmiby To him, the seniors and all the school wish to express their sincere thanks and appreciation for his willing and efficient services. The end of the day -- and the year 80 ' U M N I 4 p, N 1901 Perlin Butcher, deceased James Kessler, University of Arkansas, Fayetteville, Ark. 1unc1e of Mrs. Paul Logan--visited Bryant last ' surnmer1 1902 Ida Bowman 1Mrs. Settle1, Petroleum, Indiana Pearl Butcher 1Mrs. Tony Cogshall, Hickory, Va. Wilma Butcher 1Mrs. Maddox1, deceased. Ada Treece 1Mrs. Oliver Shoemaker1, Geneva Hickory Va. Bryant Alumni: Bryant High School memories are very dear to me, and 1 am glad to write you about them. My twin brother, Perlin Butcher and Jim Kessler were the first to graduate. Wilrna Butcher, Ada Treece, Ida Bowman and myself were the next. No doubt my twin brother and myself are the only twins to graduate, unless the Bill Dehoff twins graduat- ed. My brother died in 1918 with the flu. I always enjoyed Jimmy Whiteman's teaching very much, especially Latin. He was surely good in that study. Fifty years sounds like a long time but down mem- ory's lane it is as yesterday. I am reminded of one time I went home with Jim Kessler for supper and spent the night. He had a sister my age. When we went to climb the railroad fence, I got hung on the rail that was in the corner of the railroad fence which was wire: the fence that separated the two fields and ran into the railroad fence was rail. There was one rail standing up almost straight in the corner. As 1 went to jump my skirt got caught on the rail. There I hung and could not move until Jim stopped laughing long enough to help me out of the unfortunate position. When I was home ll years ago, Jim was there visit- ing also. I saw him in Huckreide store. As soon as I spoke to him he started laughing and then we both laugh- ed as I was recalling the same situation he was. I won- der where Jim is now? My thesis was Stepping Stones to Success. I remember lad Bowman's thesis was Idealism . We always wentto the furnace room to practice our themes. Jimmy Whiteman was a good kind teacher, yet was positive with us also. Those were very happy days. and I am very sorry I did not use my opport- unity more wisely. When we look back we feel, and know, we did not work as hard as we should. The idea of a good time was one of the great issues of that time same as now. Many things have changed, but the basic prob- lems of life were the same then as now .... We have been down here 35 years and built our house and lived here 23 years.
