Our home-room teacher is Miss Sellemeyer. However, during the courses of the day we meet all the other teachers in our classes. Of course, all the upper classmen con¬ stantly remind us that we are very insignificant in comparison, but watch us grow. -o- OUR CHAPEL PROGRAM The 7B class helped in one of the chapel programs. Evelyn Adams played a piano solo entitled, “Soror¬ ity.” A chorus sang a number en¬ titled “The Dancing Song.” It con¬ sisted of, sopranos, Bob Brodbeck, Myrtle Evans, Berniece Pickford, Lewis Beery, Harold Zimmerman. Alto: Catherine Murphy, Catherine Jackson, Lois Sovine, Evelyn Adams. -o- Teacher: Tommy use defeat, de¬ fence, and detail in a sentence. Tommy: Defeat of decat jump over defense before detail. Bob Brodbeck is the only student from 7B in the band. He has helped play at one chapel program. He plays the cornet. Keep at it, Bob. There is a future for the good musician. -o- BASKETBALL The 7B’s are very much interested in the team and though no one from our room is now a member, we hope to have a representative next year. We seven B’s consider the four yell leaders, Pauline Affolder, Mildred Gause, Marceil Leatherman, and Mar¬ tha E. Butler, very good. ■-o- BOY SCOUTS The Boy Scouts in the 7B class are Lewis Bieery, Harold Zimmerman, Wendel Smith, Monroe Furhman, Earl Mast, and Dorus Stalter. They all belong to troop number 61.

DEEDS AND MISDEEDS THE BAND The Junior Band of Decatur is com¬ posed of students of both Central and High School. Their instructor, Mr. Rice, has tried very hard and has succeeded in making a band that De¬ catur is proud of. Last summer the members received suits which are very attractive. The band gave concerts during the sum¬ mer months, which the people enjoy and appreciate very much. They also play for the Street Fair, basketball, and football games. Bob Ashbaucher, Harry Moyer, and Billy Schaffer are the members from the 7A who belong to this band. On Friday, November 7, 1230, our class sang some war songs for the Armistice Day program. Rev. Fern- theil, the chaplain of the American Legion of Decatur, spoke about the World War and Armistice Day. o BOY SCOUTS It’s great to be out of doors at night around the camp-fire with a troop of Boy Scouts. Our Decatur Scouts are looking forward to the camping sea¬ son and quite a few boys are planning to attend Camp Limberlost, located on Gene Stratton Porter’s estate near Rome City, Indiana. -o- Miss Coffee: Bill, can you tell mo one of the uses of cowhide? Bill Elston: Yes, ma’am. It keeps the cow together. NEVA BRANDYBERRY OUR TEACHER Our home room teacher, Miss Brandyberry, is one of Central’s favor¬ ites, and she is certainly a friend of the 7A’s. She teaches Geography, In¬ diana History, and Reading. She also teaches Spelling and Composition to us as we are her home room class. She has charge of the “Leaders and Diggers” of the building. She takes sincere interest in helping us with our work and we’ll be sorry to leave her for she has been so helpful to us in our every undertaking. •-o- Guide (breathless): I just saw a man-eating tiger! Cal M. (pre-occupied): Some men will eat anything. Marj Johnson (football enthusiast): What’s all the megaphones for? Cfieer leader Pauline. Haven’t you heard? The “ref’s” hard of hearing. Martha Erma Bi. (after long argu¬ ment) : I wonder what would happen if you and I would ever agree? Martha Elizabeth C.: I’d be wrong. — 13 —

MATILDA SELLEMEYER OUR TEACHER We, the 7B’s, with much dignity wish to thank our home-room teacher, Miss Sellemeyer, f or helping us accomplish our studies. Miss Selle¬ meyer is loved by all of her pupils. She teaches the 7-B Grammer, Spell¬ ing, and Composition. -o- Miss Brandyberry: They say Miss Schindler plays golf just like a man. Miss Sellemeyer: Wouldn’t you think she’d be ashamed to use such language? Miss Schindler: Now children, what was that selection from Tycrowskis’ I just sang? (Voice from back of assembly):. It sounded like “Revenge” to me. Joe Beane: I can do something you can’t do. Mr. Horton: Humph! What? J. B.: Grow! Ralph Ritter was being measured for hjs first ready-made suit of clothes. “Do you want the shoulders padd¬ ed?” inquired Mr. Mailand. “Naw!” said Ralph, “pad the pants! Mr. Horton’s my teacher.” DEEDS AND MISDEEDS (Miss Coffee will vouch for the truth of this). Two ladies got on a crowded car. After standing a while, one of them said, rather loudly, to the other: “I wish that good-looking man would of¬ fer me his seat.” Five men immedi¬ ately got up. Martha E. C.: I hear they are going to make the class periods 10 minutes shorter. James B.: That won’t do. I’m not getting enough sleep as it is. Dorcas: When is the best time to get apples? Vernon: “When the farmer isn’t looking. -o- THE CALL OF SCOUTING The real American boy is eager to answer the call of Scouting and take the oath in which he says, “On my honor I will do my best—(1) To do my duty to God and my country, and to obey the Scout law. (2) To help other people at all times. (3) To keep my¬ self physically strong mentally awake, and morally straight.” —15
