Haffner Secretary Goad Bye and Good Luch Graduation from High School is an important land mark in the life of any girl or boy. It signifies the severance of home ties and home influences and the beginning of a whole new series of responsibilities and relationships. In times of peace these changes are definite and abrupt enough, but in times such as these, with the whole world at war and all normal relationships dislocated by the world-wide frenzy of total war, the change from pcaceiul home and school to conditions you must all meet is indeed a great one. It seems to me that those of my generation who served in World War I, and who should have seen to it that it was a “war to end war” have some how let down the youngsters of today by not seeing to it that the peace which followed that war did accomplish that end. However, at present we must all do what we can to preserve for ourselves and posterity the right to our American way of life. With utmost sincerity, let me wish you good bye and good luck. —Dr. John W. Thomson. BOARD OF EDUCATION MR . CAMERON PARKS 400 S. Walsh St. Garrett, Indiana We Haue Confidence iw You It has been our purpose to equip you thoroughly. The school aims to develop and re- tain individual initiative, originality, and a pleasing personality. While seeking to provide for these desirable individual characteristics the school has general aims for all. One of these is that keystone of democracy—STERLING CHARACTER. The school hopes to turn out a product that is trustworthy, dependable, honest, indus- trious, thrifty, efficient, healthy, courageous, generous, appreciative, patriotic, loyal, learning from the past, seeking to make the very best possible out of a chaotic and stumbling present, but using every God-given power to help plan and produce a brighter and happier future for an entire world. Yes, a truly large order! But we have confidence in the on-coming gen- erations and hope this class is on its way toward achieving these goals. —W. S. Painter. W.S. Painter Superintendent E. V. Minniear Principal We Challenge You We challenge you to do better than your best. Your best is past; your better lies ahead. We challenge you to think better thoughts, inspired by higher ideals and ambitions. We challenge you to build yourself into the ideal personality. We challenge you to attempt the worth-while. We challenge you to lead rather than follow, to act rather than wait, to be independent rather than dependent, to be a thinker rather than a dullard, to be brave rather than cow- ardly, to have faith rather than doubt, to love fellow man rather than hate him, to be sympathetic rather than callous, and to strive on when all others have quit. Remember you don’t know your possibilities--you have not been tried. —E. V. Minniear. MARJORIE NELL Accountant MILDRED EVARD M.S.

Her grandeur is great enough to fill the souls of all Americans. Many wonderful essays and poems have been written praising the physical beauty of America. One of the most loved of these is the first verse of Katherine Lee Bates’ ‘America the Beautiful”: “© beautiful for spacious skies Americal Americal God shed his grace on For amber waves of grain thee, For purple mountain majesties And crown thy good with brotherhood, Above the fruited plain. From sea to shining sea.” This poem expresses the loveliness of America in a way which stirs the hearts of all her people. When we hear these words spoken or sung we see in one vast panoramic view the whole of our land—storm-swept New England coasts, New York's skyline, the rolling estates of Virginia, hazy mountains in Tennessee, the semi-tropics of Florida, fertile middlewestern plains, the Mississippi River, the swampy deltas of Louisiana, the deserts of the West, the warm fruitfulness of California; wherever we look upon America we see loveliness and majesty. But physical beauty alone is not enough to command respect and love. America has tra- ditions of integrity and heroism which her citizens remember with pride. Speak these words; feel the spirit which inspired them; see, then, if your heart does not swell within you: “O beautiful for pilgrim feet “O beautiful for heroes proved Whose stern impassioned stress In liberating strife, A thoroughfare for freedom beat Who more than self their country loved, Across the wilderness. And mercy more than life. Americal Americal God mend thine evry Americal Americal May God thy gold refine flaw, Till all success be nobleness, Confirm thy soul in self-control, And ev'ry gain divine!” Thy liberty in law!” Hearing these words we remember movements, documents. men who have shaped cur lard. Think! Remember the voyage of the Mayuower, the marches of Boone and the men who iui- lowed him, the Conestoga wagons bringing pioneer families to our own land, the long journey of Rogers and Clark, the gold rush ot ‘49, beating “a thoroughfare for freedom.’ Remember the Mayflower Compact, the Declaration of Independence, the Articles of Con- federation, the Constitution of the United States, the Northwest Ordinance, the Emancipation Proclamation, the Gettysburg Address, the Fourteen Points, the Atlantic Charter. Remember Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Henry Clay and Patrick Henry, Nathan Hale and John Paul Jones, William Henry Harrison at Tippecanoe, Andrew Jackson, Abraham Lincoln, even Jef- ferson Davis and Robert E. Lee who fought for their own section of America and their own beliefs. Remember these few, and all the countless other heroes ‘‘who more than self their country loved, and mercy more than life.’ America has always had men and women will- ing to die for her or, better, to live for her glory. The traditions of America have determined her present pathway. The third, and probably the most important phase in Miss Bates’ hymn is the patriotic spirit of Americans, described thus: “O beautiful for patriot's dream America! America! God shed his grace on That sees beyond the years thee, Thine alabaster cities gleam And crown they good with brotherhood Undimmed by human tears. From sea to shining seal” This spirit of patriotism inspired the men and the acts now cloaked in tradition. America has always had patriots who not only dream of alabaster cities, but work to build them. The spirit of America has carried her forward from her humble beginnings to her present great- ness, and will drive her on to still more magnificient achievement. American spirit was the motive force behind the Pilgrims, the Minute Men, the pioneers in our ever-broadening West, the Men in Blue and the Men in Gray of the Civil War, great statesmen, the doughboys of World War I, the men of the Army, the Navy, and the Marines now in the Pacific, and the simple everyday acts of millions of unknown American patriots. This spirit blazes forth in such historic utterances as, ‘Give me liberty or give me death!”, ‘I regret that I have but one life to give for my country!”, or My country, may she always be right, but right or wrong, still my country.” This spirit is the lump in our throats when we see the flag, or hear the national anthem, or meet a man in uniform. This American spirit is now aroused. Look about you! Feel it, pulsating over the whole vastness of Americal Let us keep the flame of our spirit burning brightly within us, so that the very cadence of our heartbeats cries out, “America, the Beautifull” Patricia Bechtol, Editor.

Front row: Louis Sapp, Class Secretary; Roger Tuck, Class President; James Harris, Treasurer of Home Room 5. Presidents Message “Ever Onward” has been a fitting theme for the Class of ‘42. Twelve years ago a small group of promising ‘tykes’’ began their formal education in the Old Central grade school, now extinct. During the first six years the personnel remained fairly constant, but in the seventh year the ranks were swelled by a group from the North Ward, and in the ninth the class was augmented by pupils from the parochial and township schools. During the last year a few withdrew from class to “join the forces,’ and others dropped out for various reasons, but sixty-six remained to complete the adventure which was so enthusiastically entered upon twelve years ago. The Class of ‘42 has made for itself an enviable record. It has shown fine leader- ship in school activities; it has given a good account of itself in class drives and class projects; it has made fine contributions to clubs and other school organizations, and it has furnished many good athletes to the varsity squads. Let us look upon this phase of our life as a joyous and an eventful period. Let us remember the lessons we have learned. Let us cherish our fine friendships and good times together. As we pass down the familiar corridors across the threshold of G. H. S. into the outer world, let us go into the larger circles of society with confidence and determ- ination. May we always uphold the fair name of our Alma Mater. Classmates, au revoir— “Ever Onward, Never Falter.” Roger Tuck, Pres.. ‘42.

A cursory examination of these pages will convince the seeker for information that this volume marks a noteworthy advance not only in the inclusion of worthy names, but also in the presentation of valuable data and material NOT PREVIOUSLY PUBLISHED IN ANY OTHER BOOK OF REFERENCE. 5 WHO'S WHO IN ‘62 aims to give brief, crisp, personal sketches of the men and women whose positions make them of general (gossip) interest. It tells just the things every “nosey” person wants to know about those who are most conspicuous in every walk of li’e, without criticism. Every sketch in this biographical reference issue has been verified, and attested to by a notary public. An asterisk ( ) before the authorized name indicates that that particular person has paid for the sketch published in WHO'S WHO IN ‘62, which has not previously been permitted. QUALIFICATIONS FOR ADMISSION TO WHO'S WHO IN ‘62. The standards of admission to WHO'S WHO IN ‘62 divide the eligibles into three classifications: (1) those who are selected on account of special prominence in lines of effort, such as peanut vendors, street cleaners, soda jerkers, and similar positions; (2) those who are arbitrarily included on account of official position; and (3) those who submit the required $1,000 for the publication of their biographies, no matter what their position may be.

Senior Class Play “Song of My Heart,’ a romance by Austin Goetz, was presented by the Senior Class on April 30 and May 1. The cast was headed by Barbara Garrison as Sylvia and Philip VanDerbosch as Michael. Modern Sylvia finds a diary in the old family mansion which reveals the broken romance of her grandmother. Then comes the young Michael to sue for her hand. The curtain rises on the broken. romance of Sylvia's grandmother and Michael's grandfather, and then the time changes to the present and the interrupted love story of yesteryear flows onward in the lives of young people.

You have heard me mention my former “greats”. In the years to come | will recall many new experiences from the 1941-42 season. I shall never forget you seniors of the basketball team—Bill Smurr, Jack Barnes, Louie Sapp, Philip VanDerbosch, Jack Black, Robert Wine- brenner, and Harold Fuller—as you listened silently during the minutes before our annual Auburn game while I told you that I had applied for enlistment in the U. S. Navy Air Corp Reserve and did not know if I would ever again coach for another Auburn-Garrett game; and then you boys went in there and decisively defeated the favored Red Devils. I recall the great second-half comeback against Butler, at Butler, ... the feeling that we were going to win the 1942 sectional tournament... the “unofficial’’ referees .. . and the unbelievable shock of losing... Captain Bill, your glasses ... and later your tooth... that Berne trip a couple of years back and the beau; tif{ul Christmas decorations .. . how you fellows took K'ville and then how they took us... defeating a cor- ner-conference championship Avilla team by fifteen points ... slim Jack (we want Black) toting around a tent uniform ... and late-for-practice Barnes, Sapp, Vandy, and Ike .. . and the trip to Indianapolis State Finals ... but not as “Champs of ‘42°. . . how Captain Smurr took personal charge of cheer leader, Betty Moses .. . Buelta and the Band .. . and how the whole class of sophomores helped to put over the Rail- roader tradition at the Auburn game by coming dressed as B O employees ... and how you defeated that highly touted alumnae team. I shall never forget Nick Sarpa, reporter deluxe ...the Senior Japs as volley ball champions .. . Wine- brenner’s team as league champions in 1941 with Sarpa and Harris as stars ... and one-man-team Kock of the 1942 league champions ... Getz and Irene Morris always at ping pong ... and Louie Sapp coaching “coach” on golf... and Louie’s state championship match at Indianapolis Speedway ... Jack Black as freshman in the cross-country meet... and “Do I have any check marks, Mr. Bateman?” . . . Roger Tuck's and Lowell Stuckman’s short debut as trackmen ...my talk to the whole senior class on “Spirit’’ and the fine comments about it by the Panorama... Black and Sarpa as Klingler free-throw champions. I shall live over again a season of no football victories (1940) followed by one with wins over Decatur and Portland ... then to have Huntington break our bones . . . and then our hearts ... Symon and Fuller both prostrate in one play ... and then our comeback when little Louie picked a Goshen pass out of the air and ran 90 yards to a touchdown .. . shooting the works to score a 7-0 fiirst quarter upset on Auburn, but lacking the reserves to hold off the infuriated Red Devils . . . Captain Vandy and those reverse runs and left-handed passes to Barnes of Sapp’s ... and Sapp’s lost drive against some big boy . . . and Barnes’ fleetness on 48 ... and Smurr’s drive on 46... and Symon’s pounding knees on 32... and Sapp’s punt re- turns ... and Barnes’ viscious tackles ... Symon’s knock-'em-out block-'em-out . . . Fuller's backing up the line .. . Muzzillo’s care-free kidding . . . Vanderbosch, as a sophomore, missing a letter by only one point . . . Joe Carlin dropping a touchdown pass in the North Side game... the holes we had to cut in Donald Putt’s size 12 shoes ... and the Harris that did not “fluke”. I shall remember, too, that I had tears in my eyes when I was presented with the award for the team championship at Kokomo in 1941 ... and the gold track shoe ... Bill Smurr’s :16.1 sec. low hurdles at Kokomo ... and how Eddie traded for a less favorable outside lane to start our 880-yard record breaking run... Jack Black's fourth place in the 1000 yards, giving us the running margin . . . and Jack Barnes’ fourth place in the broad jump and medley relay ... the Peru courthouse relics, when we stopped for meals (Thus did I start this Indian relic collecting or did you all?) . . . Symon and rub-downs and candy after practice with two former “greats”... Black's pulling up from behind to win the N.EJ.C. mile run champion- ship in Auburn in 1941 ... Smurr and Symon taking another double in hurdles at the N.EI.C. in 1941... Jack Black surprising and pleasing all of us in winning the N.E1.C. broad jump championship .. . how little the boys were as freshmen—Symon, Smurr, Black, Fuller, Barnes, Creager, Winebrenner, Branden- burg, and Muzzillo—and how .. . the first medals earned ... a second place in the Fort Wayne quadrangle meet when papers had us picked for fourth ... and Barnes’ 20-ft. ll-in. broad jump .. . five-steps Branden- burg on high hurdles . . . Earl Creager’s 43-ft. in shot put . . . that pass-a-man jogging exercise .. . Muncie relays ... Kokomo relays ... Northeastern Indiana Conference, Sectional, and State Track Meets of 1942 Jack Barnes, Eddy Symon, William Smurr, Louie Sapp and Philip Vanderbosch with their new honor award sweaters of royal blue... and finally the thrill and heartache of seeing you all march up for that diploma that broke the tie with you ... pleasant memories, boys . . . treasures that no one may take from me.

FOOTBALL SCHEDULE Garrett 14—Decatur 7 Garrett O—Hicksville 0 Garrett 32—Portland 0 Garrett O—South Side 66 Garrett O—Huntington 60 Garrett 14—Goshen 39 Garrett 6—Columbia City 26 Garrett 7—Auburn 50 Names and figures on a printed page cannot tell the whole story. You've got to see the action, hear the yells—and groans, and experience that prickly feeling all up and down the spine to get the real picture of a football contest. When I look back over my senior year of football, 1 see more than games. I see my team in there fighting a good game, a clean game, and—game to the finish. I see that great hole torn in the Decatur line as Parvu cleared the way for the oncoming attack. Smurr’s all-round ability in the Portland game enabled the Railroaders to win decisively. I quiver as I recall the cracking of bones as Symon hit Gross- man to keep another touchdown from piling up the score in the Huntington battle. Jack Barnes’ all-round star performance in the Auburn duel is something I shall respect. My spine tingles as I think of little Louie Sapp, at the Goshen game, dashing, twisting, squirming, and fiinally outrunning the last man who could have stopped him from making a 100-yard touchdown run. Perhaps the Hicksville game would not have ended in a tie had it not been for the unusual tackling ability of Fuller. As my mind wanders back to the Columbia City slaughter, in which the participants’ bodies were smeared with that fluid composed of red and white corpuscles commonly known as blood, I see 225 pounds of man and muscle, Don Putt plugging up that big gap in the line. Big Martin Muzzillo, comedian of the squad and his brilliant defensive work in the Decatur game shall always have a place in my memory. I shall never forget seeing Fluke Harris in the Auburn game. His desperate tackles kept the opponents on several occasions from running up a larger score. When he stabbed them they knew they were stabbed. When all the rest of my football experiences shall have been forgotten I shall still remember the kind words of Coach Parks. There truly was never a better man who thought as much of his players. I shall al- ways love and respect him. Along with Coach Parks I want to pay tribute to another fine man, Assistant Coach Bateman. His smile and helping hand I shall never forget. Sincerely, PHIL VANDERBOSCH.

HARDWOOD MEMORIES I hope to live to be an old, old man but of all my experieices I know I shall never forget those glori- ous basketball days. To some, a list of the games is merely a printed list, but to me every game was an exciting adventure. SUMMARY OF GAMES OF 1942 Garrett 34—Alumni 24 Garrett 28—Angola 40 “== Garrett 22—Decatur 21 Garrett 35—Auburn 30 Garrett 26—Columbia City 39 ‘= Garrett 41—K'ville 42 “ Garrett 20—Butler 30 — Garrett 53—LaGrange 26 Garrett 44—Angola 35 Garrett 46—Ashley 31 Garrett 33—Warsaw 53 -—™ Garrett 25—Waterloo 21 Garrett 35—Berne 33 Garrett 33—Butler 34 =—— Garrett 30—Bluffton 40 — Garrett 41—Hartford City 33 Garrett 30—K'ville 24 Garrett 56—Avilla 41 SECTIONAL Garrett 40—Butler 42 — All of the squad were good fellows and great teammates but my pals of the class of ‘42 hold a special place. IKE—A good man on any team with plenty of height to bring down the ball. When he got started, look out opponents. BARNES—Breaking up fast breaks was his specialty and you could always count on a couple of drive-in shots from him each game. LOUIE—Being short didn’t mean a thing to Louie. Once the game started he got around so fast the oppos- ing players couldn't keep track of him. BLACK—Many people thought there was a magnet drawing the ball through the basket when Black shot those one-handers from the corner. VANDY—It took a real player to get around Vandy and make a basket while he was guarding him. Those left-handed hook shots of his certainly came at the right times. FULLER—It never took Fuller long to get started and sometimes the referees didn't like the way he treated those poor players on the other teams. I have considered it a real pleasure and honor to be captain of and player with a group of fellows like we had on the squad. I am sure they will go forth to carry on and win in life’ as they did on the basketball floor. BILL SMURR, Captain ‘42.
