To K. V. Ammerman, whose years of unobtrusive but unceasing service, both as athletic manager and as adviser and instructor, have won our sincere admiration, this Senior Booster of the class of June ' 19 is affectionately dedicated.

THE BOOSTER Mr. Ammerman Our popular manager of the ath- letics of the school, and head of our Commercial Department, K. V. Am- merman, was born on a farm in Hunt- ington County, Indiana, in the year 1880. Most of his education was received in Indiana schools. After having com- pleted courses in a number of schools of the state, he became a teacher. After teaching for a time, he took a post-graduate course in Marion Nor- mal College, and a penmanship course in the Zanerian School in Ohio. Mr. Ammerman was fitted by his educa- tion and experience to fill most satis- factorily the position of head of the Commercial Department of our own E. M. T. H. S. Before coming to Manual in 1911, Wabash High School had him as the head of its Commercial Department. In 1911, however, he became a mem- ber of our faculty for the first time. As head of a department here he has done much to make Manual known not only for the athletics and speak ers it produces, but also for its able graduates trained in real business methods and practice. There is no need now, as there probably was at one time, for a high school graduate June Class Plays This year ' s class departed from the usual custom of giving one long class play and presented instead two shorter plays, The Merry, Merry Cuckoo, and The Gift. The four perform- ances, at three and eight p. m., Thurs- day and Friday, May 22 and 23, were attended by audiences which taxed the capacity of the school auditorium. The Meiry, Merry Cuckoo, a sim- ple drama of Welch peasant life from the pen of Margaret Douglas Rogers, included a cast of five with Marcia Orme and Thomas Gallagher as Annie and David Dalben in the leading roles. Other members of the cast were Ro- ert Kryter who took the part of Mor- (Continued on page 3.) to enter a business college; for the same thing that is taught in business colleges is taught in our own school by competent teachers. Antiquated methods are not known in this de- partment. It is up to date and is supervised by an up-to-date man. But the great popularity Mr. Am- merman has, has not been gained in the class room alone. Many of us have never come in contact with him in the class room, yet we all know of him through his connection with the athletic teams of our institution. As business manager of our teams we can see the evidence of his work. Him- self a clean-playing and clean-living athlete, he (together with our coaches) has instilled into the players the love of clean sports and the dis- approval of unfair playing. This is the policy that will win out, and which has won out this year as never before. As students w e are probably in- clined to consider the members of our faculty as teachers only; we seem to f rget that they, like ourselves, have homes. In Mr. Ammerman ' s home there are two children, John and El- len, who, we hope, when they grow up, will come to Manual and perhaps be ' athletes and feel the fine spirit that their father has instilled in the student body. We are much more than glad to boast that Mr. Ammerman is a thor- ough Hoosier; and we think it entire- ly fitting and proper that an Indiana man, educated in Indiana schools, should stand as head of the Commer- cial Department of the best high school in Indiana.
