He was also successful in conquering higher math. DWIGHT KIMBLE Dwight was the class Frankenstein , but he didn ' t fool us. He liked to argue with Mr. Brown in civics class, but that doesn ' t do him any good either. KATHRYN KING Kate just ate to live and lived for — Van Wert. All in all she was a brilliant girl. She took two English courses, and anyone who did that was blessed with brains. ROBERT KOENEMANN If Bob could have played a piano like he tickled the keys of a typewrite) ' , we ' d have had an- other Paderewski in our senior class. GOLDINE KREISCHER Goldine got so tired of shorthand. She took two years of that stuff — no wonder! She believed in having a good time anywhere and we ' re inclined to agree with her part way, JAMES KRICK ,Iim , as he was called here, had his hands full. He was editor-in-chief of the Ravelings Staff this year and that job would keep anyone on the jump. Jim wants to attend I. U. — can you blame him ' ? CLARENCE LEHRMAN tlarence was one of the few that received commercial diplomas. He was always ready and willing to give the farmer ' s view point. PAULINE LIGHT I auline tops the list in tall girls of the senior class. However, she has been very beneficial to our girls ' basketball team. RUTH LOZIER Ruth spent one summer with her sister in Kentucky, but she didn ' t come back a hill-billy. She was still the same good student and quiet girl that she always was. ELLEN MAILAND Ellen used to ride her bicycle to school all the time, but she ' s grown up now. She believes inter- ior decorating is her life ' s work, therefore she is planning to go ahead with her art. MAXINE MARTIN Max was emliarrassed in class the other day. Mr. Brown told the class to nominate some- one of stout build for Sergeant-at-Arms, and Max- ine ' s name was submitted immediately. Of course that didn ' t mean anything to her as she was al- ways joking with us too. LAURES MEYER Laurie was a husky lad from the south end of town. Since he indulged in football this season, Laurie is not as plump as he used to be. ESTHER MEYER All during her four years in high school, Esth- er has said nothing out of the way. We supposed she was waiting for the supreme moment when she would let go and really shake the founda- tions of this old school. ELEANOR NIBLICK Eleanor is interested in a stenographic course. She is very adept in typing and shorthand, al- though she must hurry sometimes to ' get the assignments. MAX ODLE Mickey lias all the ear-marks of a good busi- ness man. He says in two or three years he will own the complete line of Blue Creek Dairy stores. Twenty-Six

He must have been just too tired to open a book. JAMES EHINGER Airplanes! Airplanes! All of them just natur- ally flew when in the hands of this genius. Jim planned on taking up a business course at I. U. when he finished high school. DONABELLE FENIMORE Donna already had her occupation for life — dancing. College life is not for her so long as her pep and ability to dance hold out. LAURA FLEMING Laurabelle , small though she is. might be termed one of the big items in the senior class. She lived in the country, but she also knew the ropes of the city. HELEN FRIEDLEY Being one of the newcomers to our school. Helen was shy, but give her time — a Friedley nev- er tails. IRENE FRIEDLEY Irene, sister to Helen, planned to enter busi- ness college in Fort Wayne when her high school career was finished. PAUL HARDEN Paul connected us with the manual training department right at the top. Shall we say he was shy of the girls? IRIS HEBBLE Tiny is going to lie a business woman. She has the makings and here ' s hoping she makes good. ART HELLER Canary was once termed as our singing full- liack on the football team. The last half of the year, however, he was not able to participate in athletics at all because of an operation. DORCAS HOAGLAND Gang-way for all nurses! This was the cry usually rendered when Dorcas was seen coming down the hall. Seriously though, she is going to be a nurse — and we hope a good one. DAN HOLTHOUSE Dan came to us from the Catholic school in bis sophomore year. Ever since, he has been just one of the family. Dan was our only statesman. (He served as page-l)oy in a state legislature.) DOYLE GAY Doyle was our contact with a local theatre. When we asked for information concerning any movie, Doyle was right there on time. VERNON HUFFMAN Vernon did not seem to have any definite am- bition, )nit he hinted that it would not be English theme writing. FRANK GRETHER Frank was physically capable on the football field and mentally capable in the class rooms. He was well-known for his political views. KEITH HUNT Pete made one mistake in high school; he (bought the D. A. R. (daughters of the American Revolution) was a beauty contest. Twenty-Five

The Efforts of Many Artisans ZULA PORTER Boo-Boo held the school band together for years. With her graduating this year it looks as though we ' ll not have a band anymore. Her future is undecided. ARTHUR POLING Art had charge of seventh periods at noon. Although he is a kind-hearted soul, Art is not eas- ily fooled when one tries to skip seventh periods. MARY JANE REBER Janey is a typical school-girl even down to her complexion. She has made a name for herself through her gracefulness in a dance in the oper- etta. JANET SCHROCK Janet likes to sing and write English themes. She is planning to attend college or music school in the future. MARGUERITE STALEY Peg or Senator Staley deserves a medal. She was one of our best spellars in the school and served on the Ravelings staff. RALPH STEELE Ralphie was busy all the time. He went whizzing through his senior year editing the Gab-fest. stage managing the class play, and act- ing as president of the Commercial Club. JUNE SQUIRE June was our only married student in the sen- ior class. This was her first year at Decatur and she says it was swell . WALTER SUMMERS Walter used to lielong to the C. C. C. He was in constant demand in our classes to make reports upon their work. LENA TEETER Lena ' s time was nearly all taken up with her school work. She was one of our taller girls and was usually picked for the dances in the school. PHYLLIS TOOKE Phyllis came here from an eastern school. Be- ing small of stature, she was subject to many knock-downs, but a Tooke never gives up. NAOMI WARD Nomie was the class authoress. She won a contest prize with one of her short stories. At last reports, she was planning to write a story about the Phillipines. LUCILLE WERLING Lucy is a blonde and you know the nature of blondes. She hailed from the country — al- though she was not corn-fed — and she shows the true colors of a country lass. HILDA WILLIAMS Demure, shy. speechless, and president of the Home Ec Club described Hilda to the T . How- ever, she was a .good president for her cltib. JEANETTE WINNES Winny had one interest outside of school and that left her for a while. It went to Califor- nia, we believe. She was also very handy when it came to helping upon the stage; so long as she got out of class. IDABELLE WORTHMAN Idabelle was a quiet sort of girl until it comes to expressing her opinion about the farm. She talked on this subject one day in civics until we were blue in the face from listening.
