Written by... officially adopted 1945 Gerry Shank Alice Rhodes (Mrs. Fred Vondy) (Mrs. Wm. H. Tite) For some time the need for a new school song had been apparent. The fight song, adapted to Northwestern’s was satisfactory for games but hardly appropriate for all school occasions, especially assemblies. In 1945 C. P. Woodruff began a plan for dignifying school assemblies. Students learned to come in get quiet and pay attention. Pep sessions were moved to the gym. All these changes made the need of a loyaltysong more obvious. An appeal was made to the creative writing class students for a poem which could be set to music. Geraldine Shank wrote such a poem, then another senior, Alice Rhodes, wrote the music. Presented to the students at a special assembly, the school hymn, “To Elkhart High’ was officially adopted in March 1945. The many lessons that we learned... These are the things we shan’t forget...

College prep courses are offered for students who plan to go into business, and vocational training for those who plan to go into industry. In science, math, and English, many courses at EHS are presented on a college level, but general courses are also given, adapted to those who are less capable or less ambitious. In some departments, accelerated and remedial courses add the third and fourth track in the subject. To quote our school philosophy, the school is ‘‘organized around the needs, interests and capacities of the pupil.” Students have a chance to become well-rounded in art and music, as well as in informative or skilled sub- jects; experience in debating, dramatics, radio broad- casting, and in many other special courses is available. In summation, a good all-around education, in a good well-equipped high school, with a corps of good teachers, is within the reach of all boys and girls in the Elkhart area. The EHS Curriculum Ever since the launching of Sputnick caused the U. S. to realize the importance of science and math, the EHS curriculum committee has followed the national trend. We already had good courses and teachers in these sub- jects, but we improved the labs and equipment, and, so students think, toughened the courses. However, stress was put not only on these two sub- jects; the faculty also realized that other courses were important too. Although adjusted to individual differ- ences, the entire EHS curriculum is geared to high standards of achievement. PAGE 17 Dick Holdeman reads his theme in Writing Lab ENGLISH: varied yet basic courses English Literature and Writing Laboratory constitute one unit of English in the twelfth grade. English Literature, a one semester college-prep course, is a survey of English literature from the Anglo-Saxon period to the present. The course offers many chal- lenges for critical thinking, as well as opportunities for developing appreciation of artistic style in writing. Writing Laboratory is divided into two parts: tests and drills in fundamentals, and writing assignments. This course is built on college requirements for fresh- men in composition courses. Students write two and three themes a week, themes in which form, mechanics, and content are stressed. During the course, students are taught how to do research papers. Jerry Hart, like the rest of us, learns the importance of the card catalog PAGE 18 give us skills The Reading Laboratory, a one-semester non-credit course, helps students to improve their comprehension, speed, vocabulary, using pacers and films. Besides being able to read and write well, we at EHS feel that being able to speak well is equally important. Each sophomore has basic speech work, which he may add to in advanced courses. Our Speech 3-4 courses are designed to train students in radio and television work as well as in discussion and debate. Through announc- ing and broadcasting on our own radio show, through dramatics, and interpretation, the students learn to ex- press themselves creatively and fluently. Reading Lab. Using pacers Speaking: Mary Francis Yoder entertains the speech class PAGE 20 teach us appreciation, self-expression In all English classes, fundamentals are stressed. Sophomore, junior, and senior classes all have workbooks and drills in spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Prac- tice in the use of this study comes in the writing of many themes. English at EHS is planned on a four-track system: remedial, general, college prep, and accelerated classes. In all classes, films, recordings, and extra materials en- liven the regular textbooks. The new accelerated English course offered to those students who have exceptional ability is rich in cultural values. In the tenth and eleventh grades the course is divided into English and American Literature respec- tively. In the twelfth grade the students apply the teaching of the great philosophies to the modern world. Yes, we still have old-fashioned grammar. But we also have record and films i Mrs. Grillo checks on French students LANGUAGES: One Lab, four choices EHS offers four foreign languages: Latin, French, Spanish, and German. The realization that our world continues to get smaller makes it necessary that we understand the peopie of other countries. By combining the study of grammar with speaking experience, our lan- guage department teaches students how to con- verse through up-to-date vocabularies and proper pronunciation. The new language laboratory, equipped with a tape recorder for each student, helps students improve their fluency by allowing them and the teacher to hear themselves speak. PAGE 21 SOCIAL STW DIES: learning to be citizens Two of our social studies courses, United States History and American Problems, are such basic training for our future lives as Americans that we are all re- quired to take them. In these courses we follow the de- velopment of our democracy in order to gain an appreci- ation of our heritage. World History teaches us the history of the world as a whole so that we may better understand current world problems and their relation to our democracy. To aid in our personal and social development, we may take Effective Living, or to judge whether we would like to teach future Americans, we may participate in Cadet Teaching. All our social studies courses are prep- aration for our futures.

The typing course consists of learning to operate machines, and learning business forms. In Bookkeeping, the student learns about office tech- niques in records and statements, business transactions and organization, and in handling tax forms. Bookkeep- ing 12, an advanced course, is combined with commercial law. In this course, the student learns to apply the law to practical situations. In the vocational merchandising course, students apply what they have learned about sales transactions, selling medias, consumer demand, and store policies by actual on-the-job training.

Well-lighted and well-equipped labs, with excellent instructors, have.given this department a state-wide high rating. Some of our courses, such as physical science, are courses which can be of direct use in our lives; others, such as physics and chemistry, are preparations for our further education in college. In either case, our science PAGE 26 courses help us discover vast areas of new knowledge. Science courses teach us the most valuable lesson of all: the scientific method of thinking. We learn to check facts, to wait until all these facts are checked before jumping to conclusions; be open-minded; to experiment; to see the relationships between ideas; between causes and results, and most of all, not to be hasty or careless in our work or our thinking. In addition to our basic science courses, we are able to study advanced biology, advanced physics or Chem- istry 13. Each of these advanced courses leads us farther into scientific fields, increasing our knowledge of the world in which we live. In our basic courses, we use equipment ranging from test tubes to microscopes; then we become better acquainted with the more complicated equipment which our science department owns. ‘These advanced courses emphasize the fact that science is a broad and never-ending field. Science: an experiment in condensation working model demonstrates radio operation sasces POR A css - ® M4 fot Speen Bab eee a MATH: the science of reasoning We at EHS study the principles of mathematics be- cause we see the need for mathematics in solving the complex problems of today. No longer will the funda- mentals of arithmetic suffice for our lives. Now in many professions and administrative positions it is necessary to have a fairly comprehensive knowledge of mathe- matics. We derive other benefits and pleasures as we see the logic and beauty in mathematics when we at- tempt to evolve theories about numbers and_ their many relationships. One famous mathematician, G. H. Hardy, wrote: “The mathematician’s patterns, like the painter’s or the poet’s, must be beautiful; the ideas, like the colors of the words, must fit together in a harmonious way . . . there is no permanent place in the world for ugly mathematics.” Thus, mathematics is good training for all phases in the lives of each of us.

In three years, courses in economics cover all the various aspects of homemaking: budgeting for food or clothing, care of children, decorating and sewing. In the sophomore year there is a semester of sewing and a semester of cooking. In the junior year there are two choices. One class is set up on the general principle of a discussion group; the other class is a more advanced version of the sophomore year. In this advanced course students study fibers, fabrics, meats, and the basic four- food requirements of the body. In the senior course, called “Preparation For Marriage,” girls learn how to care for babies and how to meet daily home problems. Home Arts: remodeling clothing VOCATIONAL TRAINING: from classroom to job Printing: PAGE 32 Several years ago Elkhart realized the growing need for well-trained men in the vocational field and built the Vocational Arts Building to house this department. Under the guidance of Mr. Organ, this department has functioned efficiently, preparing many boys for their places in today’s world. Basic courses in woodwork, printing, electricity, and all shop courses give boys a chance to choose the type of vocational work they prefer. In junior and senior years, these courses are of two and three hours in length so that a boy gets enough training to go out on a job after graduation. Printing, electricity, auto mechanics, machine shop, wood work, mechanical and architectual drawing, and building trades are all taught by compe- tent instructors in well-equipped, well-lighted rooms.

Each shop has special work, up-to-date equipment. In Vocational Drawing, an advanced course, all the fundamentals of drawing are covered. Vocational Building Trades, a course in advanced Mike Toth works on a shaper PAGE 34 woodwork, is set up for seniors only. In this course, actual building problems are solved on actual construc- tion. They consist of problems in masonry, rough fram- ing, finish carpentry, electricity, plumbing and heating as involved in the construction of a house. The house, when completed, is sold to pay the expenses.

A student may go into Art Workshop if interested in creative self-expression. In this course, each student receives individual instruction in his chosen field whether it be sculpture, painting, or drawing. In music, students can participate in band, orchestra, or choir. Each meets daily. A course is also offered in music appreciation. Difficult classical selections, indi- vidual and sectional rehearsals, and excellent teaching result in high ratings for EHS music departments.

This course combines twenty hours of classroom instruction with six hours of behind-the-wheel training; both em- phasize a knowledge of mental, physical, and emotional factors affecting driving. Three teachers and three school-owned cars are in use daily. Mr. Janzaruk instructs Larry Alt in parking The sophomore girls’ gym class in an exciting game Physical Education: Physical education classes, which meet three times a week in one semester and two times a week in the other semester, are required for all sophomores. These classes include general conditioning activities, sports, mass and individual games, rhythmics, self-testing activities, and problems of hygiene. Although our games are held at the North Side gym, physical ed classes meet in the EHS gyms. Each gym has locker rooms, showers, and towel service. PAGE 39 ES Mr. Ralph Miller, Mr. Elwood Brannon, Mrs. Milo Lunt, Mr. Melvin Glendenning, Mr. Howard Christner BOARD OF TRUSTEES Every Monday evening a group of citizens meets in Mr. Rice’s office to discuss the many problems concerned with the welfare of our schools . . . this is the Board of Trustees, an unselfish board of men and women, faced with many details of building, financing, hiring of teachers and workers, maintaining and running a well- rounded school program. For several years their problem has been to keep pace with our rapidly growing school population. The im- mediate problem is the building and financing of the third new junior high school, but at the same time, grade schools are having to be remodeled, repaired, and in many cases, expanded. In order that the community know of their work and problems, the Board meetings are heard over the local radio station. Pare nt and teachers often attend, as in- vited guests, and the local paper carries the stories of Board actions and decisions. PAGE 40 Superintendent J. C. Rice Although Mr. Rice spends much of his time in meet- ings concerned with problems of the Elkhart schools (meetings with the Board, with civic groups, county groups, state groups), he has never lost his interest in teenagers. This is shown by the time he spends in the wise counselling of those who marry while in school, in his ardent support of our sports, and on such occasions as those planned this year for seniors to visit the state legislature. His hobby is gardening; he is especially interested in dahlias. No doubt this hobby gives him release from heavy responsibilities which he carries so capably in supervising school affairs. Assistant Superintendent Harold Oyer This year Mr. Harold Oyer left his principalship at North Side to become our assistant superintendent. With offices in the Short House, Mr. Oyer’s job is es- pecially concerned with the curricula of the junior and senior highs. Many of us know him; all of us feel that the job is in good hands. Financing, Building The building, financing and maintenance of the Elk- hart schools is efficiently handled by these men, Mr. Burns and Mr. Woolenwebber, whom the students sel- dom see, but to whom we are indebted for the practical affairs of housing, heating, furnishing and of keeping us solvent. Mr. J. C. Rice fe Mr. Harold Oyer Mr. Maurice Burns, business manager Mr. Wm. Woolenwebber, superintendent of buildings and grounds PAGE 41 Principal C. P. Woodruff Mr. Woodruff, our principal, will be remembered by many of the EHS students who appreciate his interest and help in their problems. Although he is busy, Woody finds time to visit most senior homerooms during the year to discuss our responsibilities in school and com- munity life. From these talks we find that he really understands the students’ point of view; that he speaks our language; that although he is firm, he is so human that no one is afraid to go into his office. (And speaking of his being human, don’t ask him about his golf scores.) Because of Woody’s belief that the students should have a part in managing school affairs, students serve on every standing faculty committee helping plan ac- tivities, assemblies, guidance, and pep sessions. Max Bell gives Woody a few tips on golf Principal C. P. Woodruff PAGE 42 Guidance Staffs Mr. Glenn Updike, assistant principal, (testing, scholarships); Mr. Dorrance Rogers, dean of boys; Miss Anna Gookin, dean of girls — together with Mr. Woodruff, these three head the guidance activities, trying to give each student the kind of direc- tion he needs. Sophomore and Transitional Counsellors: Mr. Flora, Miss Deal, Miss Kirkland, Mr. Kauffman Vitdhy Wie N N iS S “y ries The Deans and Mr. Updike discuss an EHS Cumulative Record h Junior and Senior Counsellors: Mr. McHargue, Miss McKeehan, Mr. Robinson, Mr. Hart Counsellors Although most of their time is consumed in planning pro- grams and checking grades, all of our counsellors find time to advise us on the difficult business of growing up. Under the Elk- hart plan one counsellor guides us through all three years, so that he gets to know us pretty well and becomes a real friend. anny é Homeroom Committee: Mr. Morgan, Mr. Kauffman, Miss Amsbaugh, Mr. Wysong PAGE 44 Guidance at EHS Guidance at EHS falls roughly into three types; program-making, the attempt to give every student the subjects for which he is best fitted and which best fit into his plans for the future; job-placement, the effort to help pupils find part-time jobs; and social guidance, attention to the problems students have in their per- sonal lives; and to getting along with others. As a part of this guidance program, the faculty is ever aware of the place which homework, attendance, assembly pro- grams, sportsmanship, courtesy, and citizenship have in developing a good school. Some guidance is done through the homerooms. The Homeroom Committee helps plan programs on each of the three levels; in the tenth year, getting oriented to EHS; in the eleventh year, choosing a vocation; in the twelfth year, preparing for college of a career. Some guidance is done through the two leagues, for example, the Girls League charm school or the “Cracker Barrel” sessions, informal discussions on various topics. Homeroom programs often include talks from a foreign student: Umit Kesim, Turkey Miss Kirkland gives advice on getting a job Guidance: in careers, in course choices, in social matters.

Divided into two groups—clubs and organizations— the activities scheduled make every school day inter- esting and enjoyable. Programs, parties, dances, con- certs, plays, and their entailed jobs of ticket selling, planning, decorating and rehearsing keep most of us busy but happy. One of the aspects of these activities is the fun of working together; another is getting to know many of our faculty members in an informal way, as we all work together. Some groups are large, some are small; some meet every day; some meet only on Wednesday mornings. Some groups compete and bring fame to EHS; some quietly do little thoughtful things that get no head- lines; some produce tangible results; some just meet and have fun. But whatever the activity, much of the joy, and many of our happiest memories come from taking part in activities. Front Row—Mr. Updike, D. Erne, J. Peckham, H. Alm, B. Silcott, S. Bell, J.

Student Council The Student Council was the student government of Elkhart High School, and served as a link between the student body and the faculty. The Student Council sponsors, Mr. Updike, Mr. Kauffmann, and Mr. Bell, helped the Council in its efforts to install within the E.H.S. students a spirit of self-government, self-reliance, self-control, leadership, and citizenship. This year, the Student Council had afforded a number of new services to the students and teachers at E.H.S.: a new type of hall monitor system with one-way halls proved successful; for the first time, busses were avail- able to students for the out-of-town athletic events. The Council offered homerooms a new type of plan for scheduling interesting and educational homeroom pro- grams, given by E.H.S. students themselves. By offering new services and maintaining responsi- bilities from past years, the E.H.S. Student Council has established a record of which it can well be proud. Officers—B. Silcott, Vice-Pres.; J.

The officers, and the Advisory Coun- cil made up of ten girls from each class, usually met twice a month to take care of those matters which did not require the advice of the entire League. The Girl’s League had a very successful year with its installation of officers, College Tea, “pot luck’ supper, a panel on teen-age marriages, the cracker barrel dis- cussions, coke parties, the Kid Party, and a program given by a professional writer. A new program organized by Girl’s League this year was the Big-Little Sister system, whereby an upper class- man helped an incoming sophomore to become adjusted to life at EHS. Activities this spring included sending food and cloth- ing to an orphanage, sponsoring a Vocational Tea, giving a Big-Little Sister Valentine party, taking a charm course, and sponsoring a Vesper Service. Officers—R. Wear, Treas.; S. Warford, Vice-Pres.; J. Sorg, Pres.; S. Papa, Secretary. PAGE 50 Boy’s League To create a sense of unity among the boys of EHS, the Boys’ League included every boy at EHS in its mem- bership. Forming the real framework of the Boys’ League was its Advisory Council. This group was com- prised of five boys from each class and the Boys’ League officers. Because of the League’s large membership, the Advisory Council made preliminary decisions before bringing new business before the League. The League’s programs usually consisted of speakers presented to either the League or the entire student oe ne body. The assembly in January, featuring amtalk by Officers—S. Price, Pres.; B. Walton, Treas.; D. Cormican, Vice- Supt. Rice, was sponsored by the League. In April, the BreSre soar eto GcTerOry: League sponsored a College Coke party.

Kneile, Treas.; H. Alm, Vice-Pres.; National Honor Society The National Honor Society, sponsored by Miss Zehner and Mrs. Dirks, had 59 members. The purpose of the club was to create enthusiasm for scholarship, to stimulate a desire to render service, to prompt worthy leadership, and to encourage the develop- ment of character in the pupils of EHS. The Club conducted a tutoring program. A schedule was set up so that every hour of the day, students who wanted help in any subject could be tutored. Members indicated the subject areas in which they could help other students and gave many hours to this program. Along with the tutoring program, the Club sponsored Brotherhood Week, and worked for better scholarship by encouraging students who had good grades and at- tendance by sending congratulatory cards. On the first and third Tuesdays of every month the club met to discuss various activities and have programs, such as, discussions or book reviews, talks on leadership, and speeches on trips taken by members or adults out- side the club.

Each first and third Wednesday the National Forensic League met in room 109 to stimulate greater interest in forensics and to help members develop better speech habits. This sixty-member organization had a successful year in participating in twelve speech contests and tying an all-time record with five winners at the Purdue Legis- lative Assembly. The program of the National Forensic League fea- tured demonstrations and explanations of speech events and speakers on fields related to speech. Through the year, N.F.L., sponsored by Mr. Wenger, aided by Mr. Nellist, Mr. Bratt and Mr. Smith, practice teachers, fur- nished M.C.’s for school assemblies and readers for the morning announcements. In February, thirty N.F.L. members participated in the annual speech contest at Peru, where Mr. Queener, former faculty member is now teaching. Officers—C. Prasse—Treasurer, D.

Spanish Club had many interesting and varied pro- grams this year including listening to a speaker who had lived in South America, a speaker who had toured Mexico, and records which were in Spanish. Spanish Club members also enjoyed two parties in the school cafeteria during the evening. This year the club again held a pen sale to raise money for its trip to Chicago in the spring. In Chicago the club had a Spanish, or Mexican meal, and visited places of special interest to Spanish students. Many of the Spanish Club members belonged to the National Spanish Club, an organization of Spanish students similar to the National Honor Society. ae Officers—J. Bowdish—Treasurer; V. Martin—V.

JAS French Club The French Club attempted to increase the interest of French students in the people, country, and culture of France. During the second and fourth Wednesday Club periods, French Club members sang French Christmas carols and French songs, made plans for future events, played French bingo, conducted business meetings, and enjoyed other programs which aided in their under- standing of France. The French Club, with the help of its sponsor, Mrs. Grillo, planned and presented the annual French Soiree, based on a story of an American girl in France, which was a success in obtaining money for a scholarship to a student who will continue the study of French. The final event of the French Club was a recognition banquet in the spring for its seventy members. wet aby ane? 4 Hey ae Front Row—B. Van Heldorf, S. Bettcher, P. Wells, R. Grillo, S. Papa, J.

German Club To stimulate a greater interest in the German Lan- guage and customs—this is the purpose of the German Club, now sponsored by Mr. Brinson, since the resigna- tion of Mr. Carr. During the meetings, the eighteen members of the club listened to German records and carried on business meetings. ‘These records not only gave members a chance to hear fluent German being spoken but also improved their diction and pronunciation. As a special project this year, the German Club sold address labels. Members used the money earned through this to help pay for their spring trip to Chicago. The German Club’s main social event of the year was their Christmas party. Members enjoyed going on a scavenger hunt and exchanging gifts. Officers—L, Livings—Sec. and Treas.; J. Myers—President; D.

Under the sponsorship of Mr. Addison the club met in room 23. The club strived to develop leadership in the field of distribution and to learn practical application of Dis- tributive Education. This year the club helped to gather, repair, and dis- tribute toys to underprivileged children at Christmas. The club attended the National Convention at Chi- cago, and the State Convention at Indiana University. Election of State officers was held at the Indiana Uni- versity Medical Center in September.

Butter- Model Airplane Club The Model Airplane Club, “Balsabusters,” was started in EHS this year to promote the building and flying of model airplanes. During the past year, numerous glider and controlling meets were held at either Riverview School or Mc- Naughton Park. The boys obtain points at these meets through the construction of their planes and the success with which their planes fly. These points are used to determine the winner of an award as the year ends. Just before the Christmas holidays, the club put on a large display containing various types of models that the members had built. The display also contained model airplane engines, one of which was disassembled and the main parts of the engine were identified. The airplane club recently received a scale model of a Piper Cub airplane in order to study controls and control surfaces of airplanes. Through movies, demonstrations, meets, and building sessions, the members acquired a greater knowledge of model airplane construction and flying. ee — } Paint ‘N’ Palette Club On each second and fourth Wednesday Paint ’n’ Palette Club met in room 11, with Mr. James as sponsor, to stimulate interest and appreciation of art. Various pro- grams of the year included several talks by local artists, art projects, and learning sessions featuring facts of modern art and human anatomy. Speakers gave interest- ing insights to the field of art in advertising or commer- cial art. Other people of the community told how they use their art for their own pleasure or in studios in their own homes. Several who were interested mainly in sculpture shared techniques of sculpturing with us. During learning sessions, members were instructed in proper techniques in brush strokes, tone, color, and texture. Members then had a chance to apply what they had learned through related projects. Participants also enjoyed visiting various art exhibits. Art departments of colleges were of special interest and gave members a better idea of the opportunities to further their study of art. The high point of the club’s activities was the spring field trip to Chicago. Members went by bus to visit the Art Institute, Art Museum, and Chinatown. Officers—V. Sec.-Treas.

The twenty-five club members met twice a month on Tuesdays in room 35. This year for the first time a girl joined the ranks of the amateur op- erators. Occasional speakers from industrial firms helped the members to understand principles of radio theory. The club was guided by its sponsor, Mr. Rohrer, in its accomplishments, which included setting up a radio- teletype unit, building a kilowatt transmitter, and build- ing a portable six meter transmitter. The club now has its own station, K91xs, and many of the members have their amateur licenses. These “hams” enjoy talking with operators all over the country.

The enthusiastic Pep Club did a wonderful job of promoting school spirit and sup- port for our teams during all seasons of the year, for all Blazer teams. Beginning with the football season, they made every effort to get students to attend both games and pep sessions. Sponsored by Mr. Wright and including about thirty members, the club met every other Monday in room 303. In addition to decorating the halls before games, the Pep Club helped to make our pep sessions some of the most successful in years. The club worked to promote enthusiasm, school spirit, and good sportsmanship. Members of the Pep Club, together with the Varsity Club members, made talks in every homeroom during the month of February. In these talks they discussed attendance at games and pep sessions, and sportsman- ship on the part of spectators. J. Wells, Pres.; J. Mills, Sec.; G. Swift, Treas.; J. McQueen, V. Pres.; [a Rerny.

The programs included films of diseases and careers, and speakers, such as a dental nurse and a psy- chiatrist, from various health careers. The club was sponsored by Miss Anne Kraybill, the school nurse, who helped the club with projects includ- ing making Christmas tray favors for nursing home patients and enjoying a field trip to Ball Memorial Hos- pital in Muncie. In March the F.N.L. Club sponsored a film about rehabilitation entitled ‘““Three To Go.” F.N.L. members served the school by working in the dispensary an hour each day. Although they cannot do regular nursing, they can make a student who is ill com- fortable by having him lie down, and administering first aid. St attr ‘ Perry, L. Wineland, S. Osterloo, G. Smith, S.

This year the club had several interesting programs including a film, Skippy and the Three R’s, a talk on speech and hearing therapy by Linda Wineland, and a panel of new teachers who discussed teaching. During Miss Jones’s illness, Mrs. Kent worked with F. T. A. members, and Miss Anne McAllister helped them find speakers and plan programs. To honor the teachers, the club had a teacher’s tea in the fall. On Valentine’s Day the club distributed apples to EHS teachers. In February the F. T. A. members had a tea at which each cadet had as his guest the grade school teacher with whom he was going to be working. Officers—R. Kennell, Vice Pres.; L. Chester, Pres.; C.

Last Fall, when new members ; = SV oe were invited to join EHS clubs, seventy-two boys re- 4 i ported to the Hi-Y club room. This large number of boys interested in Hi-Y activities resulted in a division of the membership into three clubs. These clubs were identified by the letters in the Greek alphabet, Alpha, Beta, and Delta. The returning Hi-Y i members from last year, selected “Alpha’’ as their club deni Dos tah die Poets S. Radway—Delta Presi- name. Officers were elected for each club, and sponsors were obtained from the high school faculty. Mr. Crosier sponsors Alpha; Mr. Willis, Delta, and Mr. Bell, Beta. Bill Howell, Youth Director at the YMCA, is the rep- resentative from the YMCA. Members ushered at concerts, ballgames, and served as attendants for check rooms at the gym. They also helped with community chest drives and the “Y” Carnival. In order to remain a member, a boy must live up to the purpose of the club: to create, maintain, and extend through the home, school, and cummunity, high stand- ards of Christian Character.

These committees were made up of class members, aided by the sponsors and Mr. Bussard. The EHS Choirs The lights in the auditorium faded and voices hushed as the sound of “O Come, All Ye Faithful’ floated in. As the robed choir members paced in, the carol strength- ened, the bobbing of the flashlight “candles” keeping time. The 1961 Christmas Concert had begun. Instead of the usual two activities of the combined EHS c hoirs, that is, the Christmas and Spring Concerts, a third was added to that list for the 1960-61 season. This was 1961 Quad High School Choral Festival with the other participants being Michigan City, LaPorte, and Goshen. This festival, held on March 25 in the EHS Auditorium, was followed by a dance for the mem- bers of the participating groups. One other activity that the combined choirs had was caroling at various local establishments during the Christmas season. Many other activities centered on the A Capella choir alone, or sometimes joined with the second hour choir. The A Cappella was invited to sing for the students and faculty of North Central College, Naperville, Illinois, on April 28, 1961. Along with the Concert band, they journeyed to Indianapolis to perform for the Indiana Music Educators’ Association.

Thomson No story of EHS music would be complete without telling about our good fortune in having Dr. Wm. Thom- son, our second resident composer, from the Ford Foun- dation. Elkhart is one of the 12 cities in which these talented music men are working with the schools, writing music especially suitable to young musicians. Dr. Thomson, a Texan, is on leave from Sul Ross State College; he was the winner of the National Young Composers Contest in both 1949 and 1941. The music faculty has enjoyed working with him and knowing Mrs. Thomson and their family, and the Choirs and instrumental musicians have enjoyed knowing him in- formally. All of these musicians joined in the presentation of “Hear the Wind” at the fall concert; this composition was a most impressive modern arrangement for voices and instruments. ‘This spring the orchestra presented his “Variations.” wi a — i at B EE emMOwR GHOR Sopranos—Pat Albert, Mary Ann Anderson, Rebecca Baker, Judy Boles, Barbara Brick, Barbara Bundy, Jean- ette Darling, Diane Forry, Pam Green, Connie Kantz, Carol Malitzke, Sue Markey, Donna Pownall, Sue Rees, Janet Reid, Shonnie Rink, Karen Rose, Gloria Sawyer, PiRoeiOURS GEOIR.

Not only size, but also excellent musician- ship sets the EHS Symphonic Orchestra apart from the majority of other high school orchestras. Because of their fine reputation throughout the country, the or- chestra was invited to perform for the Music Educators’ National Conference, in Columbus, Ohio on April 7 and 8. They started their journey to Columbus on the after- noon of April 7 . There they stayed at the Neil House Hotel and, on Saturday morning, the group moved into the Hotel’s Ballroom, where they played not only the standard symphony orchestra repertoire, but also two extra numbers, Dr. Thomson’s “Variation for Orches- tra,’ and Dr. Washburn’s “Synthesis for Orchestra.” (These men are our Ford “Composers in residence.”) Not only did they play three concerts of music ranging from Beethoven symphonies to Rogers and Hammer- stein musicals, but also accompanied the choirs in both their Christmas and Spring Concerts. A special feature on the Spring Concert was an arrangement of “Okla- homa” for the orchestra and the combined choirs by Dr. Thomson.

PAGE 79 ees ea aE RE EHS Concert Band Music Men: Dr. Thomson, Mr. Davies, Mr. Gowdy The EHS Concert Band A long whistle, the familiar roll of the snare drums, and the EHS Marching Band swung out to the middle of the field to start the last show of the 1960 football season. This was the Seniors’ last performance. This year’s theme was “Election Eve,” but other shows had included one on Rogers and Hammerstein melodies. Two weeks later, the marchers had been converted into the EHS Concert Band and were performing Leonard Bernstein’s “‘Overture to Candide” and “Hear the Wind” by Elkhart’s (and the Ford Foundation’s) Dr. Thomson. The next day November 19, 1961 they journeyed to Indianapolis, along with the A Cappella Choir, to give a concert for a meeting of the Indiana Music Educators’ Association. The band members (with some help from the or- chestra) won some 700 medals at District and State Con- tests. These medals were displayed at the Spring Con- cert. After the Spring Concert, the Concert Band had only three more activities. On April 15, 1961, they partici- pated in the State Band and Orchestra Contest: mid- May found them giving their final concert; and in June, they gave their final performance for the school year at the graduation exercises.

Pennant Weekly With the installation of new press last year and a new font in January of this year, the Pennant Weekly took on a new look. The Pennant Weekly is issued each Friday during homeroom. Its platform states its purpose: to publish all the worthwhile news, to publicize the worthwhile activities of EHS. It is a paper for and by the students; that is, the paper is written entirely by staff members; it is linotyped and printed by students. Miss Kelly and Mr. Ulery supervise, but the Pennant is a student production. The Pennant is also self-supporting. Copies are sold at ten cents. Our advertising staff solicits ads from Elk- hart merchants who defray part of the expenses by their patronage. The Weekly puts out several special issues: the Christmas issue, the tourney blue and white issue, the “nut” issue, based on the Flintstones, the underclass issue, in April and the senior, which was the last issue to be published in June. PAGE 83 ESE CN J. McQueen, V. Glick, C. Stanger. Pennant Annual The 1961 Annual staff chose our school hymn, “To Elkhart High,” for the theme of the yearbook. Each section of the book is introduced by an appropriate phrase of the school hymn; for example, “The many lessons that we’ve learned, the teachers for whose help we turned ...” introduces the academic section; and “Rememb’ring games we watched or played,” introduces the athletics section. Some original ideas materialized in the 1961 Pennant Annual as light blue “gate-fold” division pages added color to the book, which appeared in a two-textured black cover with gold letters. The editorial staff consisted of Phyllis Wiseman, editor; Nancy Wallace, associate editor; Judy McQueen, Cindy Stanger, Vickie Glick, assistant editors; Toni Van Patten, senior editor; Bob Silcott, sports editor. Head- ing the business staff were Howard Alm, Eric Ernst, business managers; Barbara Bauge, advertising mana- ger; Dick Klingaman, circulation manager. ‘These people headed groups for special assignments: Roxy Horsewell, Anne Burkhardt, Carrol Snyder, Marilyn Yoder, Elaine Sarber, Sue Harvill, Barb Penrod.

A., Girl’s Athletic Association, tried to better the relationships of its members and to improve their skills in sports. With Miss Kendall as sponsor and director, G. A. A. met in the girls gymnasium two nights each week, and also during Wednesday club periods, to learn about and practice volleyball and other sports. This is the only organized sports program in the school; and the girls who participated felt that they gained much, not only in skills but also in sportsmanship and attitudes. The club often met with teams from other schools in Playdays; games, a buffet supper and friendly competi- tion were enjoyed on these occasions. Each spring, at a Mother-Daughter Banquet, awards are made for points earned in club activities. Officers—C. Renn, Treas.; D. Dukes, Pres.; P. Sellers, Vice-Pres.; M. Yoder, Sec.; C. Perry, Cor. Sec. Varsity Club The Varsity Club, sponsored by Mr. Silcott, was com- posed of fifty-two members who had earned a major letter in any EHS sport. The purpose of the club is to develop closer relationships among athletes, to en- courage better sportsmanship, and to maintain high standards of citizenship. One of the achievements of the club this year was the organization of a Boys Cheerblock. First, speakers from the club visited every homeroom and discussed plans. A chart was made, arrangements made for tickets, and the Tourney Cheerblock was a success. The club had several programs by former members who spoke about college sports and clubs. This year the club worked on the dime line and sponsored the annual “Will Be-Has Been” game. In the spring the club sponsored a dance for all members and their dates. Front Row—D. Nelson, T.

Coached by a fine staff of men who have high ideals of sportsmanship and character, the blue and white teams have high reputation in the state sports program. Eight sports are offered, so that any boy can find some sport to participate in that uses his ability, and gives him a chance for success. In each sport competi- tion is keen, and standards of performance are high, so that success is not easy. Behind every victory are hours of grueling practice, with the additional re- sponsibility of keeping up grades. Our athletes and coaches deserve much praise, and we are proud of them. Our big North Side Gym, and our .beautiful Rice Field are the scenes of many enjoyable and exciting evenings for sport spectators.

During the hot humid month of August the boys practiced for the coming season. All this practice and hard work led to a good season with one of Elkhart’s finest teams. September 2, the Blazers opened their 1960 campaign against South Bend St. Joseph’s Indians. Since Elkhart was playing their first game, things were a bit ragged at times, but the Big Blue was able to scrape out a 13 to 6 victory. On the Friday night following the St. Joe game, the Blazers faced Gary Froebel. The Blazer team was better organized, as they ramped to a 33 to 0 victory. Jim Stewart was the big gun on offense; he scored four times and set up another touchdown. The defensive unit could not have been much better as the opposing team was able to move the ball only 54 yards from the scrimmage line all evening. se zn EES: ye th Ag 4. ts cae wi 7% if Row 1—J.

The Blazer offense was a consistent machine, chalking up 41 points against the Redskins’ 0. The Blazer defense was also a standout: the Goshenites were stopped consistently. After the Blazers had handily defeated Goshen, they met the eventual conference champions, the South Bend Washington Panthers. Elkhart had the game well in | hand going into the fourth quarter, but two end sweeps by the Panther backs caught the Blazers flatfooted. These two fourth quarter scores by the late rallying Panthers were enough to halt the Blazers, 20 to 13. Rough going ahead for Steve Price. i}. Dave Rauguth—E. H. S. 1960 Captain, Jim Stewart—E. H.

Elkhart scored on the opening kickoff as Steve Price ran 85 yards down the sideline. Although Elkhart scored first, they needed a rally in the second half in order to stop the fighting Tigers. Elkhart displayed a fine comeback spirit to win 25 to 20, although they played the second half without three regulars. A second half rally against South Bend Riley carried the Blazers to their fifth win in six starts this season. After a frustrating first half, the Blazers picked up steam and went on to win 20 to 0. Willie Bell scored two touchdowns on short plunges. The third touchdown was scored by Jim Stewart on a 37 yard pass interception. Elkhart’s second loss of the season come at the hands of the LaPorte Slicers at LaPorte, 7 to 0. Thirteen fumbles kept the Blazers from putting any kind of a scoring march together as LaPorte scored a touchdown in the first period for the game’s only score. The game was played in ankle-deep water which made _ ball handling very difficult. John Shuler Guard Finish Strong For 8.2 Record The Blazers bounced back after their loss to LaPorte and defeated South Bend Adams 14 to 7. Willie Bell scored the first touchdown on a short plunge and Jim Stewart scored the tie-breaking T. D. on an 84 yard run. EHS at full strength for the first time in a month, won their sixth in eight games. Elkhart put together their best offensive of the year as they beat the Maroons of Mishawaka, 38 to 0. Elk- hart’s two fine halfbacks, Jim Stewart and Steve Price, did all of the scoring, getting four touchdowns and two touchdowns respectively. Fine blocking and vicious tackling gave the Blazers a 7 and 2 record.

The Blazers found no trouble scoring and rolled to a 68-40 triumph. Steve Bell led a rounded scoring attack with 17 points. Three days later Elkhart overpowered county rival Nappanee, 59-36. This time Denny Foster led the point- makers with 14 points. On the next Friday EHS became the first team during the 1960-61 season to derail the East Chicago Washing- ton Senators, the State Champions of 1960. Elkhart trailed most of the way but used its press to build up a winning spurt that conquered the Senators, 77-63. After a hard fought struggle with East Chicago, and a weary road trip, the Blazers won a Saturday night game from the Marion Giants, 62-55. EHS then ran over the hustling LaPorte Slicers for its first conference win, 78-66. It took a sudden-death double overtime for the Blazers to beat a scrappy Mishawaka five, 57-55. Chuck Lamb tipped in a missed field goal attempt to end the nip and tuck battle. In Elkhart’s third road game, against the Muncie Bearcats, the Blazers had to play without their first- string guard Denny Foster. The Blazers were out: manned 72-47. Steve Bell led with 21 points. The Blazers absorbed their second defeat of the season, 55-77, at the hands of the powerful Kokomo Wildcats, the eventual State Champs. The Blazers drew the Concord Minutemen in the Holiday Tourney and easily disposed of them, 60-49. In the night session a Fort Wayne Central team, highly rated from early season victories were more than a match for EHS. The Blue stuck with the Tigers for one half but ran out of gas to permit Central to triumph, 63-47.

The stage was set for the rematch between the Blazers and the Goshen Redskins. The game figured to be a close one, but the Blazers raced away to a 24-8 first quarter lead and continued to pour it on the rest of the way. Syd Ulis turned in an outstanding game and led the Blazers with 26 points in their 78-44 rout. Steve Bell garnered 25 points as Elkhart stomped Bremen, 80-37, in the first game of the regional. At night Elkhart eked past Columbia City with a well-balanced attack, 54-53. The Blazers, traveling to Fort Wayne for the second straight year, were edged by an inspired Berne team, 66-62, but not until the Blazers had fought hard and had a last rally barely denied. Don Odle, the head coach at Taylor University and renowned head of many good will basketball tours overseas, was the principal speaker at the basketball banquet. The trophies for outstanding players in vari- ous departments were given to: Steve Bell, Most Valu- able; Chuck Lamb, Most Rebounds; Don Pletcher, Free Throws and Co-Captain; Denny “Foster, Co-Captain; Managers for the year were Ed Hobson, David Steede, and and Bill Bickel, B-Team Free Throws.

WV restling The Blue Blazer wrestling team had a fine 8-3-1 record last winter. The squad, coached by Rollie Hoover, had several of its individuals place high in state competition. Captain Bobby Scott, who lost only one match all year long, was third in the State, and won every other possible title in his weight division, and Jerry Hart, fourth in the State Meet in his division, were the top wrestlers. Several others won recognition in the conference. Seniors graduating are Scott, Steve Hardy, Tom Linder, Phil Oyer, and Lyle Smith. Returning E-men include Roy Swoape, Jerry Hart, Dennis Howard, Tom Zience, Ron Ravenscroft, Bob Thomas, and Al Trent. Jerry Hart has an opponent in trouble. PAGE 106 I EE EEE EE ee Baseball Middle inning rallies and steady pitching have helped the Blazers start a fine season. Thus far, the Blazer nine has won four of their five games. They have defeated Niles, St. Joe, Mishawaka, and Michigan City. The only loss of the young season was to LaPorte by a score of 1-0 in extra innings. The Blazers entertain high con- ference hopes. EHS had good pitchers: Frank Cummins, Jeff Bradley, Don a Lucas, and Mike Smith. Two possible batteries, pitchers Don Lucas and Mike Smith, and catcher Dick Kucela.

The netters compiled a fine 7-1 record to cop second place in the East Division of the N.I.H.S.C. For their first match of the season the Blazers traveled to Fort Wayne North and whipped the host te am, 5-0. The second match found Elkhart losing a tough 2-3 decision to eventual conference champ Goshen. The netters were soon back on the victory trail as they white- washed South Bend Adams, 5-0, and blasted South Bend Riley, 4-1. In a close encounter at Michigan City, Elk- hart won 3-2. The Blazers continued their winning ways by shutting out South Bend Central, 5-0, and de- feating LaPorte, 4-1. In their final match of the season, the netmen swamped Mishawaka, 5-0, for their sixth straight victory and fourth shutout. Tim Barrett, who was undefeated in No. | singles competition, was elected captain of this year’s team. Barrett and Bill Holdeman formed the nucleus of the two doubles teams.

GeG@e squad llth In State In spite of being one of the smallest teams in EHS history, the Cross Country team had a fine season, in the fall of ’60. First, they placed second in the conference in dual competition. Then they captured the E.N.I.H.S. Con- ference Meet. Elkhart became the first team in the meet’s history to have runners win three of the first five places: first, Bobby Scott; third, Bob Escue; and fourth, Bob Walton. The Harriers qualified for the state meet by placing third in the South Bend Sectionals, and placed twenty- first in a large field of state squads at the Shortridge Invitational. In the State Meet, our runners placed eleventh in a field of twenty-three schools. All nine Harriers won varsity letters and Bobby Scott, Captain, never finished lower than third in any meet all season. He took second in a dual meet, third in the Invitational, and second in the State. Bobby Scott, second in State Bob Walton, Senior Harrier star Track Co-coaches Rollie Hoover and John Janzaruk were faced at the start of the track season with a tremendous job of rebuilding last year’s fine team. Returning vet- erans included Bob Scott in the 880, Bob Walton and Bob Escue in the mile, Syd Ulis in the 440, Dave Rauguth in the hurdles, Steve Hardy in the shot put, and Jerry Hart and Denny Foster in the broad jump. In the early stages of the season Scott turned in a fine 2:00.2 clocking in the half mile. In dual meets the tracksters beat St. Joe, but lost to Fort Wayne South and Niles. In their only big meet of the season Elkhart had several good performances in the Goshen Relays. Bobby Scott is used to leading at the finish. Dave Rauguth trips the sticks in good times. Steve Hardy gets the ball way out there. fe nn Bes Syd Ulis finishes strong—and ahead Jerry Hart is an all-around performer. The ’61 Track Team Front Row: F. Roller, R. Swoape, J. Chester, B.

However, the Blazers whipped Mishawaka, Central, and Michigan City to tentatively rate 2nd in the conference.

OREV Sabcee ta elt oh The people of EHS, more than 2050 of us, counting our teachers (and how could we leave them CUED). as First, there are the seniors, the class of ’61. “You can always tell a senior, but you can’t tell him much.”’ Seniors move slowly through the halls, feeling their importance, feeling no need to rush to class; seniors take the lead in school affairs; seniors get the coveted seats in assembly programs; seniors yell loudest at pep sessions. But seniors study, most of them, and seniors have a strong, steadying influence in the school. Juniors have begun to wake up; they have settled down to studying, and to realizing the importance of grades. Juniors are busy, too; they start working on the “Follies” during the summer, and spend the fall worrying about rehearsals and ticket sales. Then they begin to work on and worry about the class play and the prom. In the meantime they begin to take on responsibilities in clubs, organizations, in the Student Council, in athletics, and in music. Juniors are busy, active, and nice to have around, at times. Sophomores are silly, loud, imitative, uncertain, scared, puzzled and numerous. Because they are imitative, sophs try to conform to EHS ways. Sophs rush to class, afraid of being late; sophs are too scared to be informal with teachers, sophs worry about their bug and leaf-hunting, and about what to wear or what to do; sophs join everything, hoping to succeed, and to win approval. But sophomores will be seniors some- day, and because they are scared, most of them work hard, and by the end of the year, most of them fit into the EHS pattern. aa History of the Class of 196] For many seniors, this summer will seem like the lull after a storm—a storm of activities, that is. After a rather quiet sophomore year with our only class activities being our sophomore party and picnic, we came to our very exciting junior year. We all felt proud and exhausted after our wonderful Junior Follies, “Those Wonderful Years’, our class play, “Our Night Out”, and our own prom given for the seniors of 1960. The excitement of the prom, coupled with our class picnic in May, ended our junior year. Almost without realizing it had finally come, we entered our senior year, the year we sat in the front rows at football games, elected queens instead of attend- ants, and got an all-round exaggerated view-point of our own importance. In October we actually began to feel like seniors when we ordered senior pictures, namecards, and graduation announcements. Our first class activity came in November with our presentation of George Bernard Shaw’s comedy, ‘““The Devil’s Disciple’. Then on March 15 nearly 200 seniors came dressed in Roman togas for the annual “Has-Been, Will-Be”, game, a game played between the graduating seniors on the basketball team and the underclassmen. A very exciting and enter- taining chariot race at the half-time of this game coin- cided with our theme ,“Ben Hur’.

Just a week later, on May 20, we felt the spirit of an actual Mardi Gras as we at- tended the beautiful prom, “Mardi Gras’, given for us by the junior class. Following the A.A.U.W. Tea, we attended Baccalaur- eate, the senior banquet, Senior Day, and finally ended our whirl-wind of activities with our own graduation. Looking back, we feel proud to have been a part of the class of 1961, a class we feel has accomplished many things. But looking forward, we realize that commence- ment has not been an end-point, it is only the beginning of our lives in the world as adults.

From our first day as Juniors, we felt as though we finally belonged. About 570 of us were no longer searching sophomores; we were able to speak easily to seniors and even able to make friends with most of them. We looked forward to a year of fun and hard work. To help us plan and direct our activities, we chose our class sponsors, Mr. Stan Rohrer and Mr. Russ Busse. Our first activity was the Junior Follies, “Tension,” which we presented on November 10, 1960. On April 15, 1961, we presented “Lo and Behold,” which was produced by Mr. Bussard. Our next big activity was the long-awaited Junior- Senior Prom which was held on May 20, 1961. The theme was Mardi Gras in May, and the decorations were the traditional New Orleans Mardi Gras colors and scenery. Finally on May 26, 1961, we held our Junior Class picnic, which was our last junior activity.

Sophomore sponsors: Miss Archibald and Miss Pray. Class of 763 Well, we finally made it! This was the general feeling among nearly 700 sophomores when we entered EHS last September. High school had been a goal for most of us and now we were really striving to make our first year a success. Getting acquainted with EHS people and customs was hard for confused, nervous, wanting-to-belong sophs, but Boys and Girls League activities made us feel wel- come. We girls had our Girls League “big sisters’ who helped us get oriented into activities; we boys also joined athletics, music, publications and clubs in our efforts to belong. To unite us into one class instead of just groups from three junior highs, we elected officers and sponsors. The leaders we chose were Fred Brandt, president; Bob Myers, vice-president; Sherry Papa, secretary; Margaret Masse, treasurer; Bonnie Pritchet, girls’ social chairman; Alan Middleton, boys’ social chairman. Our class spon- sors were Miss Archibald and Mis s Pray. We participated in homeroom panels, assemblies, games, and our first formal dances, but our first ex- clusively sophomore activity was the sophomore class picnic on May 25, at McNaughton Park. As our sophomore year ended, we looked forward to being upperclassmen and having our own Junior Follies and class plays.

The Constitution adopted gave it the name of the Municipal Junior Advisory Council. The objects of the council, as stated in the consti- tution, are as follows: The objects of this council shall be to foster, promote and extend activities, facilities, high ideals and ethics of conduct in all phases of leisure time in the City of Elkhart. These objects shall be reached through conferences, demonstrations, sponsorships when advisable and other means to provide for the wise use of leisure time. Membership of the council is composed of five seniors, four juniors and four sophomores of Elkhart High School. Some of the specific activities of the organization are cooperation with the Y-Teens Council, sponsorship of special activities of the Parks and Recreation Dept., sponsorship of the . PAGE 216 annual dinner of the Parks and Recreation, adop- tion of the code of laws for conduct at dances con- ducted by the Junior Advisory Council and the Y-Teen Council. The rules of conduct adopted by the two councils are kept in operation during the vacation months in the summer and the council sponsors summer vaca- tion dances which are held twice a week in one of the parks. The council is a member of the State Youth Association and attends the Governor’s Con- ference on recreation each year. Just last January the council held its first tenth anniversary dinner at which time all past presidents were invited and the program was conducted by the ex-presidents of the council. Although the Junior Advisory Council is an advisory organization, it wields a great influence in the lives of the young people of Elkhart, through suggestions and conferences and other means to provide for the right use of leisure time.
