ECHOES OF GEORGETOWN TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL 1935 - GEORGETOWN TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL In 1898, when Mr. O. P. Rees, president of our Board of Education, became associated with our schools as teacher and principal, twenty-four students made up our eighth grade and high school. Mr. Rees and another made up the faculty. One room was study hall, class room, and gymnasium. On February 22, 1914, our High School was moved into this building. By 1929 we had grown until it was necessary to add a new gymnasium, study hall, and three class rooms. At the present time our enrollment is two hundred seventy, with a teaching staff of fourteen.

LOOKING FORWARD Listen, O Seniors, and you may hear Of another step in our lives, so dear. As we go from this place we've loved so long. What arc we leaving for those coming along? Will our class through the long years yet to come, Look hack on these years we've fought and icon. And sadly say— O for those days and times again. When we left high school, our struggle began? LOOKING FORWARD Or shall we, as we think over the past, Regret the days that have gone so fast, And wish we were starting all over anew, So we could strive for a goal more true? O Seniors, think what our life is to be; A good or had record for all to see. 'Whatever the future we have in mind That future, with work, we all may find. —James Finney, ’3 5 Eleven JUNIOR CLASS Bottom Rou: Vance Emory, James Knox, George Frazier, Bernice Scott, Miss Rees, Juanita Peel, Alice Andruski.

T wch'c NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY The National Honor Society was first organized in Georgetown High School in 1934. Students are judged upon four standards, Scholarship, Leadership, Character, and Service. Fifteen percent of the eighth semester students, ten percent from the seventh semester group, and five percent of the sixth semester people are eligible. James Bromley, Charles Dietkus, Raymon Houghton, Willard Klink, and Tom Powell were elected last year. This year Theodore Haas, Catherine Haworth, Viola N'ield, and Eugene Snapp were elected from the Senior class. Louise Jenkins, Vance Emory, and Bernice Scott were chosen from the Junior class. STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council was first organiz.ed in 1932, with the purpose of encouraging students to accept the responsibility of the school activities. Raymon Houghton, Viola Nield, Catherine Haworth, and Charles Dietkus were elected to represent the Senior class. The juniors elected Bernice Scott, and George Frazier; Vance Emory was elected to fill an unexpired term of one of the members. Curtis Bromley and Eleanor Emory represent the Sophomore class, and Jane Sanders the Freshman class. Miss Rees was elected from the Faculty. Mr. DeLand is an ex-officio member. The Council officers are elected from the Senior members. Members of the Student Council have visited various high schools during the last year to learn of studenr activities in other schools. STUDENT PATROL The boys’ patrol was organiz.ed last year for the purpose of maintaining order in the locker room and corridors. During the year they took charge of patrolling all of the athletic activities. Due to the success of the boys’ patrol, the girls were organized in the same manner. In addition to their patrolling the corridors they had charge of the Girls’ Hi-Tri basket ball tournament. Eugene Snapp is captain of the Student Patrol. Fourteen ECHOES STAFF After a lapse of five years we finally have an energetic Senior class, which without much deliberation decided to publish an annual. A staff was chosen with • the result—ECHOES—small but mighty. The editorial staff under Miss Myers condensed the happenings of 1934- 3 5, and submitted the material to the Indianapolis Engraving Company for publication. Under Mr. DeLand the business staff attained a three hundred subscription goal, and with the aid of the patron’s page and the senior play, financed the book with little difficulty. It is the hope of the Class of 3 5 that their efforts to re-establish an old G.H.S. tradition will not be in vain, and that in time, our school may boast of an annua 1, the size we published some five years ago. i ROMANI HODIERNI Romani Hodierni” is a newly organized club spnosored by Miss Rees. The Latin club is similar to the Latin club of a few years ago, but has increased tince it has been resumed. The club is primarily composed of second and third year students, although first year students making an average of ninety or above are also eligible. 1 he club has two consuls who preside over meetings. During the past year Louise Jenkins and Richard Parke have acted as consuls. This club meets once a month. At the meetings the time is spent in work and games pertaining to Latin. F. F. A This club has been one of the most prominent of our school organizations. It is sponsored by J. C. Murphy, with Howard Boggess as president and Walter Read as treasurer. In recent years this club has won many honors in Sectional and State contests. In the dairy and corn judging contests the respective teams won first in the Sectional and placed high among the teams in the State contests. The softball team also won the Sectional, but was defeated in several hard fought games in the State Tournament. The basket ball team placed third in the tournament. During the past year the club has made several trips, the most important being trips to the World’s Fair, Horniman’s Dairy, and Cofling Brothers fruit farm. This summer they are planning a trip through northern Illinois and Wisconsin. 1 ACTIVITIES Under the direction of Miss Catharine Myers, the Seniors presented their play, Oh! Clarissa!” May 3. The play centers around the religion that Love is all!” The cast worked hard to make it a success. The Cast Eleanora Cabot-Lodge—Dean Haworth Norris Weather bee—John Hubbard Clarissa Weatherbee—Elizabeth Ramey Quigley Weatherbee—Raymon Houghton Verona Weatherbee—Jane Sheets Swami B'Hami—Jimmie Murphy Reginald Cabot-Lodge—James Finney Caroline Cabot-Lodge—Helen Chandler Windsor—Thomas Powell The Cook—Catherine Haworth O’Reilly—Sam Camarata The Juniors presented their play, The Heart Exchange,” in which they tried to surpass the Seniors in their acting ability. The Seniors won’t answer the questions asked by the Junior play cast consisting of: Henry Zielinski, Esther Haworth, Ellis Sparks, Susan Edmonds, Helen Herrcn, Chester Smith, Charles Nale, Mary Jane Sanders; our director. Miss Myers; Ruthmary Emory, Roy Patten, Esther Colvin, and Vance Emory. The play was a success financially as well as dramatically. The High School orchestra was really organized as a school organization in 1935. It is under the direction of Mr. Pierce from Catlin. This group has made several public appearances. Under the supervision of Miss Clark and Miss Thomas, Georgetown High School has been quite successful in commercial contests. Last year we received first honors in the State. Students are entered as teams and individuals in Bookkeeping, Shorthand, and Typing. A reorganization of the library has been made in the last two years by an efficient library staff under the direction of Miss Maran-ville. An excellent collection of books is now available for students. Several volumes have been purchased from the Vermilion Academy. Eighteen Nineteen ACTIVITIES G.H.S. initiated several new things this last year. Volley ball, revived by Mr. Burch, took the school by storm. The Senior boys upheld their superiority by winning the tournament. and defeating the Faculty. Middlemas, Zielinski, Camarata, manager; Paxton, Lewandowski, Morris, Houghton. Burch, assistant Coach; Klink, Wolcott, and Murphy were responsible for the championship. The Sophomore girls added a second championship to their list of victories by winning the volley ball tournament. Reading from left to right they are: Fleming, Stempine, Tucker, Jones, Boggess; Holmes, manager; Bunch. Stasavich, Earls, and Myers, Coach. In the spring of 1934, under the direction of Miss Thomas, all of the girls in high school organized the Hi-Tri league. This is a state organization for the welfare and development of high school girls. The picture on the opposite page shows the officers conducting their initiation ceremony. Several students, under the direction of Miss Maranville, took part in public speaking, this year. Those who represented our school at Sidell were: Chester Smith, Theodore Haas, Elizabeth Snyder, and Carl Martin. Theodore placed third in the County. Chester and Carl entered the state district contest. Our tumbling team, something else new, has gained much favor and is likely to increase its membership next year. They even managed to tumble a little around Danville. According to the students from the country, our greatest asset is the bus which was purchased last fall. It has three routes—east, west, and south. —3 Twtnty ______________________________________________________, -----------------------------------1_____________ ■ « GMEN Come out and enjoy them next year. 1 can’t pronounce it. either.

S (AS SEEN BY DEACON) HOUGHTON Center—Technically this job is called the snapper hack, ft looks like backer snap or back snapper or snap hacker would be more descriptive. Never mind, just skip it. Iiaymon got the ball back there in good shape and why blame him if the hacks couldn't hold on to it. COWELL- Guard—Called “Bull.” although f believe he preferred “Duke's Mixture.” He opened the ho.es for the backs so don’t blame him if most of them stumbled before getting there. CANTON—Guard—Called “Vesuvius” by his best acquaintances. He quite frequently erupted. Both sides find him tough to get along with. He was always in the opponent's back field and in his team-mates' hair. STIMAC—-End—Captain of 1984 team. The only boy who ever played nine football games in silente. This is the end of the story of the end of a good end. End did you enjoy it? .MORRIS—Tackle—Called “Ham” by young and old alike. His brother. Dale, is called “Eggs.” They make quite a dish when served on Saturday afternoon. LEWANDOWHKI—Center—To be Frank about the matter, him “Lead,” this will apply to either end. He has a habit MORRIS—Tackle—I introduced this one with his brother a was that Dale is rather bashful and I didn't like to push that someone doesn’t make an omelette of him next fall. DIETKUS—Tackle—Big. Brave, Blond, Bold. Don’t be misled by the “C” in front of his name. This is not an initial, but a Roman numeral and refers to the size of his shoes. All of those words beginning with “B” were suggested to me by one of Charley's admirers. It wouldn’t be fair to tell whether the admirer was a boy or a girl. Anyway, those are the words she used. Didn’t you, Henrietta ? BROMLEY—End—This is the boy who added color to the team. Of course. Delbert would have added more, not to mention Snowball Nobody seems to know what the “J” stands for, but probably it is “Jinegar”, as he seems to have lots of it. He is in the gas and oil business now. Drop in when you need some free air as he enjoys waiting on this type of trade. . KLIXK—Back—Winner of Sportsman’s Award. When will the boys find out that girls are a G-Letha-L weapon? We don’t know what the “W” stands for, but Houghton says it means winsome. We hope not, but Houghton is seldom wrong, as he will admit. Somebody dubbed “Winsome” the “last of the Mohicans,” hut a more fitting title would be “the greatest Roman of them all.” Well, anyway, although lie looked like a duck when running, he was a tough guy to bring down. PARKE—Back—Known as Richard, the Lion Hearted. In fact, claims to lie named for this famed character. When Richard told Vance of his family tree going back to Richard the Lion Hearted. Vance said: “Why stop there? Keep right on going and you’ll find your ancestor sitting in a tree.” MURPHY—Back The “J” stands for Jack and his middle name is Rabbit. Has a girl named Helen. This would make her Helen Wheels. Well, anyway, she's a girl two and ribs He hear E. Sam says her last name is Wheels, anyone might miss a car for. . NIELD—Back—Known far and wide, by friend and foe, as Bob the Bone. There were only things that made him angry. One was for someone to offer him a cigar during football season, the other one was when someone didn't offer him a cigar in football season. Broke a couple of at Westville. Knowing how it feels, maybe he won't hold her so tight. BECKER—Back—Now retired. Used to he just tired. Probably carrying too much weight, tackled them when the line took a rest. This occurred frequently, but as they don't like to about it. let us not dwell longer on the fact. CAMARATA—Back—The Adonis of the squad. Klink claims that Sam good in his four years in high school. He figures that what little Sam offset by the number of broken hearts he has caused. Sam was just a but then Rudolph Valentino never liked the game either, and look at the EMORY—Guard—Capt.-elect. The middle name is Herbert. Don't make the mistake of judging the fellow by his name. It has a cream puff sound, hut this guy actually eats raw meat. He buys it at Crawford’s. His parents should have made the V stand for Vergil, but how could they tell he would become a great Latin student? They could not. He didn't. Ellis Sparks says, “V stands for Viper. He didn’t know whether it should be windshield viper or Blowing Viper. As for me, I'll take vanilla. . STEPHENSON—End—This boy uses a double name, Wayne and Wendell. When called upon, and he knows the answer he will respond to either. If he doesn't know it he will refuse to respond on the ground that if you called him Wendell you should have called him Wayne, and if you called him Wayne, you should have called him Wendell. The “W” probably stands for Wily. bone crusher, but a stands for Electric, a bet on this horse has done more harm than has learned is more than trifle fragile for football, conquests he made.

The boys didn’t seem to do as well as was generally expected. The prospects for next year appear to be fair, but we shall let next year speak for itself.

Twenty-four Twenty-five LIZZIE GLI TZ' DIARY 1934-1935 Lizzie Glut , tripped up the stairs, A book clutched in each arm; It was her debut in Georgetown High, Thus the cause of her alarm. She entered the big assembly And stood there trembling with awe, She felt like a little mushroom Among the Seniors she saw. Right then and there she decided, Despite her shivery spine. She’d keep a diary about the school, And each day write a line. So here you see before you The finished work of Lizzie, Her personal opinions about events, They’re all here quite explicit. Sept. 4.
