MEET THE SENIORS CDF1947 You've met us before, but we're here to sayi goodbye to old C. H. S. and to reminisce over our four years of high school life. We were green just as all freshies are, but we established ourselves at the first of the year by competing with the sophomores in a track meet. During our second year the big event was a picnic at Roberts Park. VVe felt more at home as sophomores, but we vowed we'd never be so snobbish as those junior and those horrible seniors ! Our junior year rolled around, and we began to do things. We elected our class officers and sponsored a dance to help raise money for the Iunior-Senior Prom. Remember how we worked l l l l l seared lcnomel, Shelton, Stevens, Psi- stick, Green, Bell. Standin - Miss Gartlein, Miss Collins. Lineback, Mr. Sparks, Harris, lVlr. Smithl Whitfield, Doub, Robinson, Fread llno picturel. i l l l l I l l l l l , ,, , I l l l SENIOR EXECUTIVE COUNCIL l l l l l l l l l l l l for weeks making crepe-paper flowers for the Reception and how l . 1 We were still putting the finishing touches on the wishing-well on L the very last day? l . . l A Then came that senior year. It was fun campaigning for those l l hot elections and dressing silly for tack clay. It was difficult l l . . . M to choose the five prom queen candidates from our senior class, l H but it was easy letting ourselves go at the senior day program. Our l H last prom was perfect. Baccalaureate and Commencement marked X . l the end of our high school career, but it is not the end of the l 1 many memories which we shall always cherish. l l l il JACK STEVENS Good-looking president of class In basketball-hard to surpass.

S., none serve the average student more than the student council. Throughout the past year, under the sponsorship of Mrs. Marietta Miller and Mr. VValter Reed, it has proven its ability to be an efficient mediator between the faculty and the student body. Membership is of the representative type in that it is composed of four seniors, two juniors, two sophomores, two freslnnen and one colored student. Shortly after school begins it is the custom of the council to introduce the freshmen on the shelf to the student body and to instill in them the spirit and . pride which goes with their school. A few months latercame the sectional at which pennants were sold to the student body by this department. The next project sponsored by this active club, was an old fashioned square dance wlnch was held in the gym. The net proceedsiof the pennant sales and square dance go into a fund to buy a flag pole for Spartan field. In the spring, a visit to a Student Council Conference in Anderson enabled them to get new ideas. . Along ,with the above major accomplishments the council has provided several invaluable services such as helping conduct elections, polls, and providing ink for all rooms.

To become a member, one must be in the upper fifteen per cent of his class scholastically and have at least a B average. Our chapter, number 168, was organized in 1924 and now consists of 119 boys and 285 girls. The Phi Beta Kappa committee appointed to choose the members is Miss Edith Del Hopkins, chairman, Mrs. Louise Beaton, Miss Iuanita Collins, and Mrs. Garnet Donieker. The first five per cent of students selected in the fall were Margaret Stiller, Elaine Pieri, Inez Doub, Constance Fread, Robert Stater, Sharlee Harris, and Shirley Cates. The remaining ten per cent, announced in a spring assembly, were Rona Carwood, Betty Gruell, Robert Iones, Gloria Sue Ioseph, David Koile, Doris Langley, Pat Reynolds, Don Sickels, Donna Sleet, and Eugene Sturwold. The annual party was held in April in the school library. HI - Y CLUB One of the most outstanding organizations of the school is the Club with forty-one members. This year it has been quite active under their new sponsor, Mr. Donald Endicott. - Starting off the year with the initiation of new rnembers, they followed with a fall hay-ride and selling pencils bearing the basketball and baseball schedules. The Hi7Y Club, founded in 1921 for the purpose of creating, maintaining, and extending a high standard of Christian character throughout the school and community, attended various city churches as a group and sponsored a religious program every morning during Holy Week. This was the first year that the club has sponsored a program of this kind. Supporting the Hi-Y World Serviceand Restoration Fund was their big project during the year. Activities included intraclub basketball games and attending district conferences at Rushville and Brookville. The Connersville group was prominent in both conferences and two of its members, Don Bell and Art VVilliams, were elected presidents of the two sessions. The seniors who assisted in winding up the year with a dance, an assembly, a Father-Son Banquet, and a spring picnic, envy the underclassmen for their future years of ups and downs with the Hi-Y Club. l-l-Shedd, lipase, Smith, Kehl, Burton, Wilson, Daniels, Bogardus, Bishop, Whipple, Hood, Ault, Jones, Gabbard, Bean, Payne a.ory. l-RiddeI,'Hinchman, Douthitt, Jones, Porter, Hopkins, Kirlcendahl.

This was due largely to Miss Lourene Trowbridge, who has devoted much of her time and effort to the club's success, and also much credit goes to the other two sponsors, Miss Edith Del Hopkins and Mrs. Margaret Reed. , The Sunshine Society was hostess to groups from eleven counties at the District Five Convention, October 19, at which 325 delegates were present. They attended youth conferences with the Hi-Y, Tri-Y and Girl Reserves at both Rushville and Brookville, and sent delegates to the State Sunshine Convention at Sheridan, Indiana. Mrs. Reed and Miss Trowbridge attended the state sponsors' luncheon at the Severin Hotel in Indianapolis in October. To earn money the girls gave a one-act play, Those Husbands of Ours, collected dues, sold hot dogs at the sectional, and sponsored bus trips to the out-of-town basketball games. VV ith this money they contributed generously to the Fayette Memorial Hospital, the Yank Who Gave, the local Red Cross, the Ruth Lyon's Fund for crippled children, and the Riley Hospital, the latter being their main project. A trip to Coney Island was the outstanding summer activity. Miss Hopkins gave a very intriguing program, How Come Christmas? at the Christmas party. The May program was a guest tea for the mothers of the members. The officers were in charge of an impressive candlelight formal initiation for the new members in November, in the Central Christian Church. There are now sixty-eight members of this orangization.

Ads were introduced again after a lapse of several years, and an increase of thirty-two pages, including ads, was made over last year's Cohiscan. The proceeds of two publications dances helped boost the Cohiscan to their financial goal. After the Hartford City game a dance with holly, mistletoe, and all the traditional Christmas trimmings was held in the gym. A king and queen of winter, lack Stevens and VVilma McGary, were chosen from those present. The Twelve and Thirty Press Club contributed the money from a mixer held on the third floor after the Rushville game, and Cohiscan staff members sold beanies during the sectional. This year ads played an important part in making the annual possiblcg Ioan Suttles and Bob Kennedy may-take hard- earned bows i11 this department. One of the noticeable changes in style in the book this year are the class pictures which were taken in informal group shots on the campus instead of in individual pictures.

The 'flZ is retained in honor of the original members. No more than twelve plus thirty or forty-two members can belong to this club originated for the purpose of discussing and finding the lighter and amusing side of newspaper work. This year there are twenty-seven juniors andfseuiors who qualified. Early this fall the five who were members last year met at Metzie's to enlarge the membership and to enjoy coca cola and potato chips. Persuasive notes were written by those wishing to join, assuring the older members of their capability of making worthy members. Doughnuts and cider was the chief attraction at the initiation- Halloween party at David Koile's. All who were accepted had to scour the city for crazy items, and the first in with the lot received prizes such as baby cream and flea powder. Having a nose for what's new, the 12 81 30 was the first club to hold a meeting at the Spartan Iive Hive. One of the highlights of their activities was the banquet followed by a theatre party. Later in the spring the members shattered the peace and quiet of Robert's Park by chipping in for a plcnlc. For all these reasons students in journalism classes write ambitiously hoping that enough of their stories will be printed to give them the required fifteen column inches. 128:30 First Row-Doub Cvice-presidentl, Mrs. Metz, Chomet, sierihlpresidentl, Chance, Lineback, Harris, Cates, eatc , Back Row-Rollins lpragram chairmanl, Kuile, Stur- wold, Kennedy, Fread, Ford isecretaryl, Shelton ttreasurerl, Suttles, Rambo, Ault, Hale.

S. and at the Spring Festival in New Castle where they qualified to sing next tall for the Indiana State Choral Festival Association. Last fall eight members were chosen to sing in Indianapolis for the Music Educators National. Ioining in with other choral groups, fourteen members of our chorus sang during the Indiana State Teachers' Association Convention in Indianapolis. In April a group of eight journeyed to Indianapolis again, this time to sing for The Music Educators National Conference.

Founded at Connersville High School in 1939 the Iunior Classical League has one of the largest enrollments of the high school organizations with sixty-seven members. Composed of students who have taken or are taking' Latin the ICL has as its aim handing on the torch of classical civilization in the modern world. The members believe an acquaintance with the civilizations of Greece and Rome will help them understand and appreciate the world today, which is indebted to ancient civilization in its govermnents, laws, literatures, languages, and arts. T The organization has four officers elected annually, First Consul, Second Consul, Scribe, and Quaestor. The First Consul presides at all meetings and performssuch duties as are discharged by the head of an organization. It is the duty of the Second Consul to perform all assign- ments made by the president and preside in his absence. The Scribe keeps a record of all proceedings and performs duties usually executed by a secretary. The Quaestor is the custodian of all money and keeps a record of all receipts and disbursements. Meeting the first Monday of each month the ICL program committee presented various programs. The highlight of the year's meetingsfwas entertaining the mothers of the members during National Education Week. Activities at the meetings included conversational Latin, the study of gods and goddesses and discussion of Roman life. STRUT AND FRET CLUB 1 . .gr l STRUT 81 FRET Rollins, DeWitt, Veatch, somerg Johnsong Weisheit, D. Bell, Daniels, Ruff. Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player That struts and frets his hour upon the stage, And then is heard no more. From this phrase of MacBeth's the oldest club in high school, Strut and Fret, took its name. ' The purpose of this club is to promote an interest in modern drama. According to custom these drarnatists journeyed to Indianapolis to see a successful stage play-this year, the Pulitzer Prize comedy, State of the Union. Out of the number who tried-out for the club, thirty-one were accepted. They were initiated in the auditorium by last year's members who did everything possible to make the initiates uncomfortable. Eskimo pies cooled them off after they officially became Strut and Fretters. ' The '47 officers are NaDeane Shelton, presiclentg Henry Stevens, vice- presidentg Ioan Cochran, secretary and treasurerg Robert MCC-innis, parlia- mentariang and Ioan Woodworth, Clarion reporter. , Sponsors are Miss Pearl Bartley and Miss Iuanita Collins. No plays were giyen by the Strut and Fret this year.

The principal character is Indy Foster, a typical high school girl, who tries to raise S1000 for the Community Relief Fund since the one soliciting the most subscriptions would be queen of the dance. She enters many contests in which she uses her parents' names. Her father is quite perturbed when he learns he has Hkissable lips and her mother is likewise distressed at being called a lively lady. . Randolph, Iudy's adorable brother, delights in making jokes-especially when they are aimed at his sister. Iudy's main trouble is Oogie, her backward boyfriend. Most of the time she is too busy to notice him, but she has a change of heart when she learns Oogie plans to take Tootsie VVhiteman to the dance. r Despite bigamy, hives, and other complications, all turned out well, and the audience left the auditorium happy that they had kept their date with Indy.

During the shortage of soap, the Iunior Red Cross sponsored a drive for soap and magazines for Billings Hospital in Indianapolis. They collected S123 in the annual March of Dimes. . A successful drive was made for collecting old Christmas cards. These were gathered for their illustrations, which will be clipped and used on greetings to be sent next season to boys and girls throughout the world with a message encouraging inter-racial and international understanding and good-will. r Twenty-one gift boxes, containing both toys and educational items, were assembled and sent overseas for needy children, and twenty-five baby jackets were made for the local Red Cross Chapter. Representatives to the National Convention at Cleveland in Iune will be Matilda Glaub and Margaret Doub. With Mrs. Mabel Swain as its efficient sponsor, the Iunior Red Cross has been busy throughout the year. - Nix . -C Q ei l 1 Front Table - Bell, Pfafflin, Douthitl, Reyntolds, Zwickle, Doub, Glaub, Wood- wort .

SPANISH CLUB To be eligible for El Circulo,Espanol you must have completed at least one semester of Spanish. Its main purpose is to supply students with a more intimate knowledge of the customs and interests of our neighbors of the South. To obtain equipment for the department, financial goals were set. This year a record player was bought for playing Spanish lessons. The money was obtained through the club's sponsorship of a school dance called the Shoeless Shuffle. Club activities consist of both social and educational programs. Members give plays depicting the home life of Spanish-speaking people. They give biographies of their leaders, correlations of Pan-American holidays, traditions and beliefs. This year the students corresponded with boys and girls in South America who are studying the English language.

S. as they labored hard in turning out one of the best seasons that the Spartan Warriors have experienced in some time. Coach Iohn Cwin was the first to take the limelight as head football mentor. The local pigskin crew was better than average in their third year, following. a half decade layoff. Last year's Iunior Spartan coach, Ward Smith, took over the duties of basketball head. Under his leadership, the Connersville basketball team finished in the upper bracket of the South Central Conference for the second year in succession. Mr. Smith also tutored the track team. Arthur Cross resumed his post of baseball coach and assistant football mentor but resigned following the opening of the second term. Howard Plough returned to the Connersville staff after a two year stretch in the Navy and led the Iunior Spartans through an average season.

F OO T BALL Connersville football fortunes enjoyed a banner year as compared with the previous pigskin seasons. Winning half of their scheduled games, the Spartans showed progress of becoming a state power on the gridiron for the coming years. Danville, a newcomer to the Connersville schedule, brought their spirited Warriors to Cloypool Field for the opening tussle. Throwing everything but the bench at them, Coach Cwin's fightin' eleven came out with a 39-0 score. Ole' man rivalry knocked at the C:vVVl1lIHCIl,S door as the team journeyed to Rushville. VVinning 20-0, Connersville started off a drastic season for the Lions as far as athletic games are concerned between the two schools. Fighting to hold a team from scoring on them, the Spartans got a little tense and Shelbyville managed to get a touchdown in their 19-6 route. Then came the climax that was to spell doom for the team's good season. Spirits high at Richmond a fast Red Devil eleven sent the Spartans home licking Wounds that had a 27-0 tag on them. Iackson Central proved easy prey and gave Coach Cwin a chance to see his second team in action as they pounded out a 47-0 win. I The next three games proved disastrous to the Spartan cause. Franklin had a C hard time squeezing out a 20-l3 win, but the Columbus Bulldogs had too much power and hung up a South Central victory 45-6. Lawrenceburg couldn t see the Red and VVhite spoiling their undefeated record and the locals wound up the season with a 20-0 loss. FOOTBALL Witli the opening of the 1947 football season, Coach Ted Sims will find that he has six vacancies ,in his starting line-up left by the graduates. At,-the half-back posts, Coach Sims will have to find two boys who will match the cleverness of Ioe VVillet and Rieinan Rhinehart. In the line are positions that will be hard to fill with the absence of veteran center, Ioe Varvel, guards, Eugene Riddell and Red Sturgeon, and ends, Dick Robinson and Rex Bowman.

Eighteen games were on the card for the season. Liberty first handed the Connersville aggregation a 41-22 reverse but New Castle failed to halt the Spartans and the local netters eked out a 29-27 triumph. Brookville moved in next and fell 32-30. Shelbyville, Lawrenceburg, and Columbus all took advantage of the Sinithmen with definite victories. The Spartans took the first win in the Battle of the Century Series, 38-36. Richmond found the going a little rough but came back in the fourth quarter to outseore the Spartans 44-37. In the last game before the holidays, the Spartans defeated Hartford City. In the New Year's Day Tourney, the Spartans met Rushville in the opening game and edged the Gridleymen in a double overtime, 37-35. Connersville tangled with Shelbyville in the final game of the tourney and went down, 49-33. Aurora fell to the Connersville eagers but Greensburg pulled, slipping by the Spartans, 37-33. Greencastle cause little trouble and the locals followed with a 15 point win over Rushville. Seymour offered too much speed and accuracy, going on to drub C. H. S. by a comfortable margin. Martinsville almost made a battle out of it until the Spartans started connecting in a last quarter rally and came through with a 49-42 win. Again the Richmond Satans were on the ball and walloped the Spartans 55-40. Muncie Central found the going a little rough but did manage to triumph, 40-38. The Franklin Cubs, one of the most improved clubs in the South Central Conference humbled the Spartans by a fair margin. The locals finished in the S. C. C. with 4 wins and 5 reverses and ended the year with 8 triumphs and ll setbacks. In the sectional, the Connersville netters drubbed Springfield Township 72-46 then fell to the Everton Bearcats in the second Friday afternoon battle.

T RA CK For the first time in several years Connersville fielded a track team. Coached Dv VVard Smith, the Spartan thinly-clads had an average record for their first year of full competition. Issuing 1 call in late winter, Coach Smith was greeted by a host of possible t C k naterial. Since the team had little time in which to develop, the first part me 1 of the season was not too successful. The greater part of the season the Spartan ' ' ' ' ' f' ld f t . daman thinhes were without the aid of a good pole xaulter in the ie ex en s an in the high and low hurdles. Finally Coach Smith found a few boys who had the stamina to compete in these events. In the first meet in Brookville the Greyhounds' took the last relay race- for a thrilling victory. Next the Spartans journeyed to Richmond for the tri-angular t ftl the Red Devils and Liberty's VVarriors C. H. S. and Liberty managed mee vu 1 P . to garner two firsts to give each a boost of fifty and twenty-five points respectively. B d At Rushville the locals tangled with a highly regarded Lion team. Ioe ear collected four first places for the Rushville squad and the Lions easily walked away with the meet. Lawrenceburg was a visitor with the Connersville thinlies, and each went home licking formidable wounds. Holding their scheduled home contest at Brookville, the Spartans displayed a fair average as host by coming in second. Shelbyville eoasted runner up honors. - Iourneying to Greencastle for the Conference meet the locals didn't fare so well. Coming in seventh, the Connersville team failed to take one first place.
