ANNA GARDNER President Treasurer Secretary THE SCHOOL BOARD GOSHEN HIGH SCHOOL itself is only a part of the large organization called the Goshen City Schools. The combined units in educational work are under the leadership of Mr. W. Foreman, superintendent of schools and well-known educator in the State of Indiana. Working with him is the Board of Education, com- posed of prominent men and women of Goshen. Not only is experience in financial matters essential to the effective and efficient school system, but even more important is an interest in boys and girls. Our present School Board is especially fitted for work among young people. The Board of Education is composed of the following: President-Mr. M. Farrell, president of the Goshen Sash and Door Companyg treasurer-Rev. H. F. Stuckman, pastor of the First Brethren Churchg secretary-Mrs. Anna Gardner. PAGE ELEVEN THE CRIMSON 1931 MODERNISMU Pro or Con 1. W. FOREMAN Superintendent THE term Modernism has become very popular in American life during the last few years. It is heard in religion, in art, in education, and also in many lines of manufacturing, furniture for instance. To say of any question It is in keep- ing with modernistic tendencies is suffi- cient to secure for it many ardent supporters. This has become so prevalent that it behooves us to look into any question under consideration and determine whether the proposed modernism is merely for the sake of change or for real betterment. In the government of Russia we have an example of modernism run rampant. The result is the denial of all religious truth and the destruction of all private busi- ness enterprises. The soviet government is the one supreme authority, and con- formity to the will and wishes of the party in power is the rule supreme. The rights to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness is not to be found in the tenents of this modernistic giant. But not all moderism is bad. Its value in education may be a debatable ques- tion, but we are of the opinion that modernism in education is analogous to modern- ism in modes of travel and in business methods. These come with growth and development along scientific lines. In literature and in music it is difficult to im- prove on the classical. Before subscribing to modernism in any field of thought or endeavor, let us ask ourselves if the new excells the old in truth, beauty, and harmony, and in greater benefit to mankind. PAGE TWELVE THE CRIMSON 1931 MODERNISM ORT L, WALTER Principal THE term modern is a significant word when its meaning is interpreted. That is modern which belongs to the pres- ent period, or is characteristic of it: the word commonly suggests contrast with a more distant past and applies to that which is latest and most approved. How different the conception of modernism has been to the people of the civilized world throughout its development, can best be understood by referring to the epochs of history. The Athenians progressed to a stage in development that resulted in giving to the world a new art, a new literature and a new architectureg the Hebrew nation developed and gave a new religion: the Romans a new system of law and governmentg the Teutons a new conception of the social status of the familyg and in more recent times the several nations have contributed industrial expansion, scientific research, and national systems of education. These contributions have resulted in the modernisms we are enjoying to-day. With this view it is impossible to conceive of modernism as belonging exclusively to the present age, but as a successive series of new ideals, philosophies, discoveries and inventions that are cumulative to the present age, Modernisms, throughout the ages have been many and varied but only a few have survived a fad age, and have been a contribution to human progress. lt would be most interesting if we could perceive what of our modernistic ideas of art, religion, philosophy, learning, and style will be contributions to the generations that follow us.

Almost without exception, this class has had the highest percentage of students on the Honor Roll all four years. Up to the last semester of our senior year, these people received the award of scholarship sweaters and chevrons given to rank one students: Madlyn Walter, Valeria Bar- nard, Roberta Hauder, Harriet Mick, Eleanor Freeman, Dona Belle Hepler, Dorothy Troyer, Marguerite Gardner, Harriett Rummel, Ruth Sharpe Qwho left us in her sophomore yearj, Blair Rieth and Elmer Culp. Another proof of our scholastic ability is the fact that for the first time in the history of Goshen High School there were two Valedictorians, Madlyn Walter and Dorothy Troyer both had a final average of 95.6 percent. Roberta I-Iauder and Elmer Culp follow in the ranking of scholarship as Salutatorian and Orator, re- spectively. Besides excelling in scholarship, we were well represented in the Band and Orchestra. Constance Boshart, Elmer Culp, Mary Ebersole, Roberta Hauder, Unadel McCrory, Ioe Randolph, Blair Rieth, Paul Stoller, Lottie Stutsman, Dorothy Troyer, Wanda Tyler, Madlyn Walter, Robert Welty, Iunior Yoder, and Harold Monfort gave of their musical talent at some time during the four years. Another department that merits some attention is debating. Our school deba- ters have had a great deal of success, and a large part of this is due to the seniors who participated: Mac Cripe, Blair Rieth, Roy Umble, Robert Welty and Roberta Hauder. A great: number of the athletes who stood out in football, basketball, tennis, and track, Goshen High School will lose this year: Shurl Wogoman, Ancel Whittle, Iohn Hoke, Elmer Culp, Robert Zook, Roy Llmble, Iunior Miller, Elbert Miller, Paul Stoller, Samuel Wiese, George Elliott, Richard Belasco, Iunior Yoder, Blair Rieth, and Mac Cripe.

PAGE TWENTY-NINE ig 1 . - , , 1 A n -- '- 1 W.-,,,f.,e,.,f: Q V THE CRIMSON 1931 Class of 1932 IN COMPARING these handsome, intellectual faces with those in the Crimsons of former years, you will find quite a few changes, in most instances for the better, many having lost that innocent what's it all about look and taken on a more mature, self-confident expression. Our class, the juniors, has always been blest with a group, a large one too, of talented members-our Red Grangesf' Stretch Murphies, Babe Ruths and Nurmies, consisting of Toby Yoder, Darby Williamis, Kenneth Mount, Wilfred Fausnaugh, Merle Oswald, Orus Iessup, and many other efficient athletes. Iustina Enss, Luther Cripe, Charley Huffman, Richard Bigler, and Roberta Yoder com- pose a few of our long list of forthcoming Galli Curcis and Carusoes. Our first splurge into the social world was recognized when we, as the fresh- man class, entertained ourselves royally by journeying out to Blosser's Park where skates, wieners and indigestion were enjoyed by all. But our little world of athletics, music and parties soon began to totterg footballs, cornets, and picnic baskets were quickly exchanged for Latin books, algebras and histories, as a hundred lil' noses turned studiously toward X - X's, E Pluribus Unums and ln 1492's. Those who came through with flying colors fdon't confuse with pink slipsl were Betty Hulwick, Helen Everett, Agnes Smoker, Iohn Dausman, Richard Bigler and lean Vernon.

The girls crashed through with the class basketball championship and were rewarded with a delightful banquet. Again the 400 poured out in hordes to attend the class party, a bowery affair, given in the gym and received with much approval by the Pats and Ikeys of the class. Then followed exams, trials and tribulations and we awoke to find ourselves juniors. Under the leadership of lane Rummell, Robert Lewis, Edward Peterson, lohn Dausman, Ed Butte, Miss De Wees and Mr. Ulery, we started in with enthusiasm to complete our third year in high school as successfully as we had the two preced- ing ones. Again the girls copped the basketball championship and enjoyed a feast at the losing teams' expense. The publication of the Tomahawk was left largely to us and was handled exceedingly well. Our young lane Cowls and Iohn Barrymores who were none other than Audrey lane Yoder, Janet Miller, Helen Everett, Agnes Smoker, Marajane Burkett, Darby Williams, Meredith Koerner, Kenneth Mount, Luther Cripe and Frank Weaver made up the cast of Smilin' Through which was the play given by the junior class and was a decided success. Thus, with a few more activities, including more exams and the Iunior-Senior Prom, the Class of '32 closed the year of '31 and turned their faces toward the fourth and final year of high school life. Carmena Freeman. PAGE THIRTY-UNE THE CRIMSON 1931 Class of 1933 UUR FIRST year in high school accustomed us somewhat to the more ad- vanced school life, so we entered upon our second year with more self-confi- dence and less apprehension. Under the capable leadership of our sponsors, Miss Barnes and Mr. Schenck, we stepped forth, firmly planted our feet on the path to fuller knowledge and proceeded toward our destination, that is, graduation. As student guides, we chose Margaret Pippinger and Donald Pletcher-president and vice-president, respectively, Our freshman year was a perilous one. Dangers presented themselves frequent- ly in the guise of six-weeks tests, vacation laziness, that peculiar illness before summer named spring fever, and that evil called Ucrammingf' Most of us finished successfully our beginning year and, after a pleasant vacation, we returned to school life once more. Sidney Sorg, as president, has conducted our affairs this year and has been assisted by Lester Getz, vice-president. Harold Kintigh has acted as secretary and Robert Kercher as treasurer. Our class is a talented one-the boys leading in athletic prowess are as follows: Lester Getz, Robert Kercher, Donald Myers, Olin Keim, and W. Yoder. Marguerite Iacobs, Georgia Goudy, Helen Yoder, Anna Ebersole, Hazel Wagner, Fern Rizzo, Elizabeth Snobarger, Mary Louise Barnhart, Iune Kelly and Frieda Enss PAGE TH I RTY-TWO THE CRIMSON 1931 Class of 1933 displayed their ability in basketball playing this year. These pupils-Muriel Barnard, Mary Louise Barnhart, Helen Yoder, Helen Emma Zook and Frieda Enss-lead the sophomores in mental accomplishments, that is, they have won sweaters and letters for their excellent scholastic achievements. A large percentage of our sophomore students are members of the high school orchestra and band. The boys' and girls' glee clubs are well supported by sophomore songsters. Since the sophomore class is a large one, we have found it more practical in carrying on routine business to divide it into eight groups, headed by a competent leader and an accurate secretary. The duty of each group is to collect all dues and see that report cards are promptly returned after being signed. Individually, these groups strive to surpass the others in scholarship and money-making. Collec- tively, they cooperate in making our class Worthy to advance to the place of juniors next year. The tests and exams encountered by us this year seem not to be such unsur- mountable obstacles they seemed when we first met them. We have learned more discrimination in picking our way through when we necessarily have to experience them. Some of us have even found out that we can avoid them altogether if we work hard enough. Frieda Enss. PAGE THIRTY-THREE TI-IE CRIMSON 1931 Class of 1934 UN SEPTEMBER 8, we freshmen began our high school career as the Class of '34 amid jeers and wisecracks. We were beginners, so we found it necessary to choose a very competent pilot to guide our first faltering steps around the dan- gerous curves of the unexplored land of high school life. Emma Detweiler, as president, has steered us quite safely. Iosephine Hartzler, our vice-president, has proved a very able assistant. Nancy Hulwick, our chosen secretary, has recorded in the Hall of Freshman Fame all the perilous places we have crossed, all the mighty obstacles we have surmounted and the heights of learning to which we have soared. Clara Marie Plank' has cared for our weighty financial matters in her office of treasurer. Virginia Freeman and Maurice Boshart have kept order among the members of our large class. Nancy I-lulwick and Iunior Zentz have been our representatives to the Student Council. Miss Peckinpaugh and Mr. French, the sponsors of this renowned class, have traveled with us on this eventful journey. A On this trip we have been entertained several times by our three singers from the Glee Club, Virginia Freeman, Betty Goddard, and Bud Yoder. They usually have been accompanied by Dean Henry, our pianist, who accompanied the Boy's Glee Club: several times this year. Our skilled musicians in the orchestra are as follows: Emma Detweiler, Nancy Hulwick, Clara Marie Plank, Mary Rebecca Cripe, Betty Weaver, Cecil Pepple, PAGE THIRTY-FOUR THE CRIMSON 1931 Class of 1934 Robert Boggs, and Robert Hippensteel. Several from our class are members of the band. They are Phil Yoder, Maurice Boshart, Thomas Huff, Albert Shellenberger, David Muth, Bud Yoder and lean Randolph. Among our celebs we have Daniel Sherman, who received a letter for basketball. Ruth Troyer has had the honor of being elected scretary of the Sunshine Society. The Crimson representative from the freshman class is Olive Blair. At the end of the first semester we received a hard blow. The mid year exams! We were a discouraged lot and found it difficult to emerge from the discourage- ment they caused. Some of our number, however, recovered very quickly. Among them we found these to stand out prominently-Emma Detweiler, Mary Ellen Everett, Nancy Hulwick, Waldo Lehman, Robert Michael, Paul Neterer, William Pearl, Clara Marie Plank, Frances Rule, Gladys Stump, Walter Stutsman, Olive Blair, Doris Yoder, Esther Yoder, Iunior Zentz and Mary Ruth Zook. Two of us-Emma Detweiler and Nancy Hulwick-led the school with a scholarship re- cord of 6.25. The final exams that came next were more difficult and some whose lot it was to meet themfell behind and will have to catch up with us next year. But since they are a determined group, we are fairly sure of their safe arrival. Olive Blair. PAGE THIRTY-FIVE PAGE TH I RTY-SIX THE CRIMSON 1931 The Day As I gaze from my window across the land To the west and the setting sun, I think of the day that has gone before, A day who's life is done. Those precious hours belonged to me, But I wasted them as of old: And sent unto death the priceless time That I could have turned to gold. My squandered time brings close the time When I and all the rest, Must leave this life as the days' bright sun That has vanished in the West. -William Lee Ridenoure In ., ,ff f 1, W5 ' 'N . 16532 Heir- A ig 1211, 21 2 1 ' 312 2 1311 -'-' -:J fag 3 111: gs ?S3y ' 131' -11g,.-5:5-3. 1 1 1 ,1 A ew 1' .

Every year, at a general assembly, it presents the school with a worthwhile and lasting gift. Last year it consisted of a bust of Theodore Roosevelt, which is now placed on the east landing. The Chemistry Club Essay Contest on some subject pertaining to Chemistry is participated in widely by the members. Last year Miriam Mease won second place in the state with her essay, for which she received a book dealing with the subject she had chosen. She also was awarded five dollars in gold from the state and first prize in the local club. jane Rummell was awarded the prize this year. The Chemistry Club has been very successful financially. Their projects and concession sales have turned out very well. The interest bearing money the club now has on hand has been voted to be increased to two hundred dollars, the interest from this amount to be used in aiding activities of the club and school. The annual banquet was a decided success. Speeches were delivered by the guests, Mr. Foreman, Mr. Walter, and Mr. Shanklin. .ML Samuel Welty is sponsor of this club and is assisted by Richard Bigler, president-Kenneth Mount, vice-president-janet Miller, secretary-Marietta Storer, treasurer.

The old uncom- fortable stools were replaced by easier chairs, rugs were put on the floor, curtains and pictures hung, and reading lamps in.stalled. All these furnishings were donated by Hi-Yers. The annual Football Banquet was held at the end of the season. All football players and the men teachers were invited, and Rev. W. W. Robinson delivered the address. A one-act play was given in Ianuary before the assembly and later to the Brotherhood of the Methodist Church. It was coached by Miss Katharyn DeWees and was a great success. The Father and Son Banquet was held at the end of the year. During the year lectures were given by Dr. A. C. Yoder, Rev. Trevor Dillon, and Professors of Goshen College. The club went as a group to the Elkhart Y. M. C. A. to swim. In the spring New Paris High School was installed into the Hi-Y Club by the Goshen chapter. Summing up everything, the Hi-Y organization enjoyed a very successful year. PAGE FORTY-ONE THE CRIMSON 1931 Orchestra Top Row: Walter, Overholt, Bigler, Peterson, Chapman.

THE GOSHEN High School Orchestra had a membership of thirty-five, which included two pianos, three cellos, three bass violins, two clarinets, one drum, two cornets, one French horn, one string base, one trombone, one flute, one bassoon, eight first violins, and seven second violins. Under the direction of Miss Aline Hower, assistant director of music, the orchestra started its activities for the school year by playing at the Farmers' Institute, October 10. Following this it made its appearance at the Teachers' Convention at Goshen, Indiana, February 21, 1931, where it was well received. The orchestra furnished music for the junior and senior plays. The junior play, Smilin' Through, was given the proper atmosphere by the orchestral selections played and the special musical numbers. Skidding, the senior play, was also enhanced by the music of the orchestra. Miss Aline Hower, by her earnest and sincere effort has made our orchestra one of the best of its kind in the state. The splendid cooperation and talent shown by the members has aided greatly also in making this a very successful and worth- while year.

THE GOSHEN High School's Concert Band has a complete instrumentation for the first time, this year. The completion has been accomplished with the additions of the alto bass clarinet and tympanii. The pieces now number fifty. This year, as in previous years, the organization has been present to enthuse and inspire the football and basketball crowds at all home games. When the football team played its first night game in the history of the school, thej band accompanied it to Fort Wayne and made a dazzling spectacle as they marched under the electric lights. Actual activities began when they entered the annual band program in March and the sectional contest in April. The band was well represented and a number of very fine solos was given. The instruments used for these contests were the clarinet, cornet, trombones, bassoon, tuba, French horn, marimba and saxaphone. The wood wind quintette and brass quartet were other features at the contest. In addition to these activities during the school year, the members gave a series of twelve concerts in the municipal park during the summer, and were re- ceived by large crowds.

PAGE FORTY-NINE THE CRIMSON 1931 The Commercial Department THE Commercial Department deserves a large amount of attention in that it pre- pares a great many young people to take their places in the business world. Miss Mary Biggs and Mr. Iohn Weaver are teachers in this field of work-Miss Biggs, shorthand and typing instructor: Mr. Weaver, bookkeeping and typing in- St1'l1CtOI'. A beginning shorthand team composed of Roberta Hauder, Vada Berry, and Dorothy Hoogenboom won first place at the district contest at Mishawaka in the spring. Roberta Hauder, Marjory Cripe and Vada Berry, the beginning typing team placed first also. The advanced shorthand team-Ieannette Thiele, Lottie Stutsman, and Mary Summy-placed second at this meet. Dorothy Troyer, janet Miller and Mary lane Peterson, who made up the bookkeeping team, won second place also. The two teams that placed first were taken to Muncie, Indiana, where the state meet was held, There, Roberta Hauder received first prize for being the best individ- ual typist in the novice B group. The Debating Department Under the leadership of Mr. Merle Shanklin, the debating squad at Goshen High School has had a very interesting season. The team proper was made up of Mac Cripe, Roberta Hauder, Roy Umble, and Robert Welty. As Mac received a sweater from the Chemistry Club last year for his debating ability, only Roy, Robert, and Roberta were awarded them this year. The subject for debate this year was as follows: Resolved: That the present system of installment buying of consumption goods should be condemned.

PAGE FIFTY-TH REE 1 THE CR1MsoN 1931 FOOTBALL A FTER three weeks of hard practice and training on Foreman Field, the 'Red Men- ace made its first exploration ati the expense of the Horace Mann B team, September 20. The Byermen upheld the record on Foreman Field by not losing the first home game since 1923. The Goshen backs pierced the Horsemen line time after time for huge gains, while the Crimson and White forward wall stopped the Gary backs before they could get started. In the second game of the season Goshen lost a hard fought game to the North Side of Fort Wayne, under the giant Hood lights of the North Side Field. The two teams were so evenly matched that, until Leeper of Fort Wayne made a 59 yard dash for a touchdown, the game looked as if it would end scoreless. Goshen, by a series of runs, plunges, and passes, took the ball down to the 8 yard line only to fumble, thus, losing her chance to score. Bob Kercher had his ankle badly injured in the fracus. Michigan City completely outclassed the green G. H. S, team, October 4, Coach Andy Gill's Red Devils, avenging their defeat of last year, were so inspired that it is doubtful if any N. I. H. S. C. team could have stopped them. Their backs averaged 12 yards on each play, while the Red Menace could not get through the strong line of the opponents. Goshen lost its next battle to Mishawaka, October ll. Coach Frank Steel's ag- gregation were too fast for the Crimson line, making 25 points in the first half. Go- shen came back and made three touchdowns in a very convincing manner, but the Maroon backs got loose and ran wild in the last quarter. Goshen came out of her losing slump in the last half of the Howe game--sub- duing the Cadets, October 18. Kercher played his first game since he was injured in the North Side of Fort Wayne conflict. Goshen showed more power in the LaPorte game than in any other, Goshen ran rough-shod over the poorly organized LaPorte team. The teams were said to be of equal strength, but from the start, Goshen proved superior in every department of the game. The final score was 26 to 7. On November 3, the annual grudge battle between Elkhart and Goshen was played. The two teams were evenly matched, although the score was 19 to 6 favoring the Blue Avalanche. ln the second quarter, Riblet, Elkhartfs diminutive quarter back, broke loose and ran 35 yards to the goal for the first score. A few minutes later, Earlywine, giant Elkhart tackle, found an opening in our line, blocked Yoder's punt, and feel on the ball for their second score-Elkhart 13 and Goshen 0. Both teams threatened to score, but did not have the driving power necessary to put the ball across. In the fourth quarter, however, Goshen finally got a break when the referee ruled a long pass good, because an Elkhart man interfered with the receiver. PAGE Fl FTY-FOUR THE CRIMSON 1931 This put the ball on Elkhart's 6 yard line and Goshen shoved it over-Goshen 7, Elkhart 13. In the closing minutes of play, Rowe, Elkhart substitute, broke through the Goshen line, outran the backs to the goal line and dropped on the ball just as the gun cracked. A rejuvenated Goshen team surprised Warsaw by handing them a 13 to 0 de- feat. Coach Fisher's Warsaw team expected to carry away the game with the Byer- menf' But they proved too strong. The last battle of the season with South Bend showed that Goshen really had a football team. To make the annual game seem natural a drizzling rain fell through- out the entire time. Goshen led South Bend at the half 12 to O. Basker, star half- back of South Bend, seemed to recover from his torn ligaments at the half, because he entered the game at this point. ln the last and fatal quarter, Basker got loose, ran 12 yards for their score and with one minute to go, 50 yards for the second. The final score was 13 to 12, It was a moral victory for the Byermen and everyone is proud of their showing. This year's record was very good, considering that only two regulars of the 1931 edition returned, The team won four games and lost five. Twenty-two of the squad won the coveted awards of letters. They were George Elliott, Lester Getz, Elbert Miller, Gordon Hoke, Robert Holtzinger, Darby Williams, Hubert Anglemeyer, Ancel VVhittle, Robert Kercher, Donald Yoder, Wilfred Fausnaugh, Richard Belasco, Kenneth Mount, Paul Stoller, Frank Weaver, Shurl Wogomon, Max Bickel. The list includes nine seniors, eleven juniors, and two sophomores. Four of the squad received mention on the All-Star Northern Indiana team-Hubert Anglemeyer, guard, was named on the first string, while Holtzinger, Whittle, and Yoder were given places on the second team, and Holtzinger was named on the second All-State Team. The boys that failed to get their letter and will probably show up well next sea- son are as follows: Roscoe Holderman, Richard Yoder, Ben Yoder, Meredith Koerner, Hubert Waugaman, and Roy Stouder. Fourteen lettermen will return in addition to the seven above. Prospects for a great team next year are very bright. P5333 lritiri THE CRIMSON 1931 ,A , I Alw- . Q , iz 4 JV' 5311.9-W V.

PAGE FIFTY-SIX THE CRIMSON 1931 BASKETBALL THE Goshen Redskins after being organized for their first battle by Coach Byers, invaded the New Paris stronghold, and returned with a 10 to 9 victory over the smaller city. Five days later the Redskins hung up their second scalpg this time War- saw was the victim. The Tigers, with their tails between their legs skulked home with a 17 to 10 defeat. With just a few days of practice prior to the next game, the Crimson team overwhelmed Rochester by a 20 to 5 score. The Mishawaka Cavemen traveled to Goshen, December 5, only to be beaten 18 to 15. The Redskins displayed a fast passing attack that could not be stopped. One week later the Goshen quintet completely smothered the Plymouth five 28 to 4 for their first Conference victory. The Byermen's defense was so air tight that only one field goal was made by their opponents. Goshen's second Conference victory was with Mishawaka. This was also the Crimson and White's sixth straight victory. Top Row: Umble, Overholt, Miller, Iessup, Fausnaugh, Holtzinger, Myers. Second Row: Mr. Byers, Oswald, Anglemeyer, Belasco, Holderman, Zook, Getz, Sherman, Donovan. First Row: Hoke, Wiese, Whittle, D, Yoder, W. Yoder, G. Hoke, Miller. PAGE FIFTY-seven THE CRIMSON 1931 BASKETBALL The next game proved to be Goshen's stumbling block. Riblet, Elkhart one hand shot artist, and four other Blue Blazers brought fame to their school by defeat- ing the Redskins 18 to 17. Goshen held a comfortable lead all during the game, but with three minutes to go and a five point lead, Elkhart sank two long shots and then Riblet threw the ball over his head in the general direction of the basket which found the loop and gave Elkhart a one point non-conference victory. Goshen's next game was a holiday tilt with last years State team. Again the Crimson lads were nosed out by one point this time 20 to 19. This was one of the best games played this year. On December 31, Goshen traveled down state to meet Huntington, the con- querors of Muncie. The Redskins had an off night as much as the Zebras had an on night. The final score was 34 to 13. February 6, Riley of South Bend upset the dope bucket by outplaying and out- scoring the Redskins 18 to 17. The next night South Bend Central won their second game from Goshen 24 to 10. Nappanee and Goshen met for the second time in the New Paris gymnasium. Goshen, played one of its best games of the season and thoroughly drubbed the Bull- dogs 21 to 13. With two games remaining on the schedule and a chance for second place in the conference, Goshen lost their Hrst game to Elkhart, 19 to 10. However, Goshen won their final game against Howe Military Academy, 32 to 23. The Redskins tied with several other teams for third place in the conference: with four victories and three defeats. Goshen finished her regular playing season by winning 12 out of 19 games. SECTIONAL TOURNAMENT On March 6 and 7, the Sectional Tournament was held in the Elkhart High School Gymnasium. As usual Goshen drew a hard schedule, but for the first time in three years they did not win the tournament. In the first game the Redskins defeated Middlebury 27 to 18. The second to fall was New Paris the final score being 16 to 15. The third and disastrous game was with Nappanee. The old proverb, Third time's the charm, worded out when Go- shen was beaten by the Bulldogs. The Elkhart Blue Blazers took the tournament and won the Regional also, thus representing our county at the State Tournament. PAGE FIFTY-EIGHT THE CRIMSON 1931 The Players IOHN HOKE, playing on the varsity for his first year, was a capable point getter, along with being an excellent guard. ANCEL WHITTLE, guard, also playing his first year for the varsity, broke up many plays and always counted up several points each game. IUNIOR MILLER got the tip-off of most of his opponents and was always a Udangerous man under the basket. DONALD YODER, although not a spectacular player was a good defensive man. He also was hot on long shots. WALTER YODER proved to be one of the fastest shiliest and best basket sniper in Elkhart County. BOB HOLTZINGER substituted for Miller at center and should be a valuable man next year. SAM WIESE showed plenty of accuracy in snagging long passes from his opponents. LESTER GETZ, sophomore, should develop into a very fine forward by next year. GORDON HOKE, along with being a power on defense, has one of the best basket eyes on the squad. ELBERT MILLER showed up well in his defensive work and shooting under the basket. The ten boys mentioned above, having played the sufHcient time, won their let- ters. Hoke, Whittle, E. Miller, Miller, and Wiese will graduate this spring, but the other line men will return next year. THE SECOND TEAM The second team, won the majority of their games, and proved to be one of the best reserve teams in the county. The team was composed of Belasco, Zook, Elliott, Anglemeyer, Don Myers, Dan Sherman, Oswald, Overholt, Llmble, Holderman. TRACK Under the direction of Mr. Schenck and Mr. Ulery, coaches of tennis and track, respectively, all local track aspirants took their pre-season limbering up exercises in the gym until the weather permitted outside work. Mac Cripe, Shurl Wogtomotn, and Bob Donovan are the only three letter- men back this year, and chances for a winning team are very doubtful. But when Coach Byers decided to take the runners under his guiding arm, their hopes were raised. However, some of the new material looks good. In looking over the new candidates, Ed Butte, miler, Getz and Yoder, pole vaulters, look the best. PAGE FIFTY-NINE THE CRIMSON 1931 In the dashes, Coach Byers will have john Hoke, Bob Donovan and Bob Kercher, Elmer Culp and john Hoke will probably try their luck in the 220. Richard Bigler and Elmer Culp will try to help Bob Donovan, also a veteran, bring home the bacon in the gruelling 440. In the half mile run, Cripe, W. Yoder, and Franklin Boggs will take part. Ed Butte and jimmy Mc Pherron will furnish plenty of opposition in the mile. Shurl Wogomon and Bob Lewis are entered in both low and high hurdles. Darby Williams will also be on hand for the low sticks. Getz and D. Yoder, and Belasco will do the vaulting for G. H. S. In the high jump there will be Elliot, D. Yoder, Getz, and Wogomon. For the broad jump, Culp, Ridenoure, and Elliot are slated and Whittle and Hoke seem to be coming right along heaving the shot. Most of the team is inexperienced but by next year it should be developed to the fullest extent, At the time this article was written, Goshen had lost its first meet to Fort Wayne 25 to 74. The next meet will be with Howe The schedule is as follows: April ll Fort Wayne there May 2 Elkhart, Michigan City there April 18 Howe here May 9 Conference at East Chicago April 21 Syracuse here May 16 Sectional at Elkhart April 25 Mishawaka there May 23 State meet TENNIS With two lettermen left out of six, Coach Schenck will have a problem in finding four more good men. This article will go to press before the racquet season opens and Coach Schenck had not any definite team picked, but among the following boys lies the '31 G. H. S. tennis team: junior Miller, senior, LeRoy Miller sophomore: Donald Myers, sophomoreg Sam Wicse, seniorg junior Yoder, senior: Frank Weaver, junior, Keith Stoner, sophomore: Luther Cripe, junior: and Blair Rieth, senior. The majority of the boys are inexperienced and everyone who works has a good chance. Out of the nine boys mentioned above Coach Schenck may not be able to pick a winning combination this year, but watch the tennis team next year. The schedule for the season is as follows: May 2 Howe there May 2l Riley there May 5 Riley here May 23 Conference Tournament at Gary May 12 Nappanee here May 28 Nappanee there May 13 Howe here May 30 St. joseph Valley Tourney at May I4 Elkhart there South Bend May 20 Central here june 2 Elkhart here PAGE SIXTY -Albert C.

PAGE SIXTY-FOUR -Wilma Sharp. against its roughness- -Dona Belle Hepler THE CRIMSON 1931 CAT PERSONALITY UNE of the most noted institutions of the age is the well advertised International Correspondence School for the Development of Personality. Although this is of great advantage to the human world and may someday be turning out Edisons and Rockefellers by the dozen, there is one school that outdoes the benefits reaped at this institution of knowledge and that is none other than the International Correspondf ence Schooil for Backward Calts.. Perhaps you have noticed when entering a home where a cat is kept as a pet, that one having set its green orbs upon you, it immediately runs at full speed in the opposite direction. At the time you may have been under the impression that you were bothered with one of those disagreeable eniumbranus known as halitosis or B. O., but the truth of the matter is that you were afflicted with neither of these social blights and that the feline creature! which so rudely left you, is merely a shy and embarrassed kitty. Perhaps the cat would have loved to come out and rub its soft, flexible back along your leg, scamper over those apendages on the end of your ankles, known as feet, and meow and purr contentedly as you patted its flea ridden backg but undoubtedly his early education has been neglected and he has developed an inferiority complex, which is just what this correspondence school does away with. Therefore, if you have a bashful kitten around your establishment don't wait a minute longer but send him immediately to the International Correspondence School for Instant Instruction on Feline Personality and I-low to Acquire It. -Carmena Freeman. THE WATCHER There's no music in my house. It is gone. It left one day. At night I return to an empty house. You kissed me, and left one day. You are gone. You will never return. And always my heart listens for your voice. -Dona Belle Hepler. PAGE SIXTY-FIVE THE CRIMSON 1931 TOOLATE AVON KNIGHTS thrust a black satchel into the waiting car, jumped in, and sped away toward the gray mountains which reached majestically toward the clouded sky, The night was damp, bitterly cold and heavy with the moisture of a day's rain, which had only recently ceased. Avon Knights sat at the wheel with wrinkled brow and a puzzled, regretful look. Why? Should he not be happy to know that he had made a clean get-away? The reason for this look was merely because Avon Knights was not a crook at heart. ' As a young boy and man, he had from time to time stolen things. Then having been caught he served his sentence resignedly. But as he sat in his prison cell, he determined to go straight when he was released. And he had untili. Well, how could he, who had always taken what he wanted, withstand the temptation of such sums of money that went through his hands as a bank cashier, for he had worked hard to gain a reputable position and at last his efforts were rewarded. However, until the time he obtained the job as bank cashier, he had worked at jobs where he did not handle, at least not large sums, of money, And then he was given a cashier's job. For months he had tried to keep from gloating over that idea of stealing, but it was no use. He decided that Fate had bestowed on him the life of a thief, and finally he yielded to the voice that called, Steal, into his ringing ears. He stole, and cleverly he thought. The blame would fall on john. Several miles from the city he slowed down, for it occurred to him that he, by running away, had the same as confessed his crime. At first this thought urged him to go backg then his mind turned to thoughts of others. The money he held in the black satchel would mean the destruction of hopes and joys of the many people with whom he had associated. He, one lone man, merely for the love of money was de- stroying the very essence of life for the many to whom he had been a friend, By this time he had reached the peak of the mountain over which he had to go, and he had placed eleven miles between the city of Bourbon and himself. Now the long descent began. He shifted into second, then with a low curse put the car in high and went careening down the road riding the brakes. . Then a sharp curve loomed ahead-a jamming of brakes- the crash of the bar- ricade-death! No, not death! Somehow when his mind returned to reality, Avon found that the car, instead of falling through space, was perched over the precipice, lodged on a stake or stump somewhere between the two axels. For a moment his being seemed dead, then every nerve became tense and through his mind ran wild and inane thoughts. His Hrst calm reasonable thought was about himself. What if he were dis' covered here? No chance of escape-then, A'Maybe someone will come and rescue me, not knowing who I am. Through his mind ran again the thoughts of the sorrow and pain he was bringing to his friends. His features became firm and determined and he said over and over again to himself, I willy I will: I will return! PAGE SIXTY-SIX THE CRIMSON 1931 After some time his features relaxed a little, but the grim determination remained, When. he was rescued he would return the money take up his life anew and he felt sure he would always be able to withstand his temptation. For two or three long hours which passed as years, he sat in silent meditation. His body ached from being held in such tautness and rigidity, that he thought he might become insane. Suddenly to his straining ears came the distant sound of what seemed to be an auto. His heart throbbed wildly, and his mind became a mad whirl of thought. At last he could stand it no longer. He had to look and see what was coming. Slowly, but steadily, he turned himself about, bracing his foot on the gear. Down the road he saw the lights of a car. Never before had a car looked so wonderful to him. Then, with rescue close at hand, he relaxed. As he did so, his foot slipped- the car jerked-gave a slight forward movement and lunged. Silence-then a crash and a scream and all was over. The black satchel and Avon Knights returned to Bourbon, but who knew that this was what Avon had wanted to be done? -Muriel Barnard. SANDY IT WAS a dry summer day at Lakeville and everything was quiet and peaceful in town except for a passing automobile now and then. Maggie Dolan was out trying to revive a few petunias in a wall box that hung below a big bay window of her rooming house. On the small steps in front of the door lay a little tramp pup dreaming of dog heaven, dog biscuits and bones. 'This was Sandy, a brown pup of every denomination imaginable. In an upper flat of the house lived Mr. and Mrs, Pat Mahoney and their four year old son, Iimmie. Sandy was Iimmie's regular pal, and everywhere that Iimmie went he went too. As Sandy was sleeping peacefully something terrible interrupted his sleep be- cause when he awoke he found himself sprawled out on the grass in front of the house. Then Maggie's big Irish voice was heard, Come on ye yaller mut, git off o' here 'cause I ain't got time to walk over ye, and yer not so good that ye can sleep where- ever ye want to. Poor Sandy's dog heaven was surely ruined that time because he couldn't dream for several days after that. While the commotion was going on at the front door, a red wagon with a teddy- bear came bumping down the front stairs and out of the door almost upsetting Maggie -f A: f ., gn, , 3. - r111.- A A r J., , V.

Teddy took a ride and it almost upset Maggie, he said, as he .started down stairs, lust then Mrs. Mahoney came to the door of her upper flat expecting to see Jimmie lying at the bottom of the stairs, She found Iimmie at the top and Maggie was at the foot rubbing a banged up knee that was injured in the calamity. That kid o' yers almost broke me knee joint, Maggie said in a none too pleas- ing way. 'Tm so sorry, Mrs, Dolan, and l'll tend to Iimmie right away. Iimmie come right here to me! What did you do that for? 'Al gave teddy a ride down the stairs, Mama, and he bumped right into Missus Dolan, Iimmie said half ashamed for what he had done. Mrs. Mahoney gave her son a whipping and sent him down stairs to play in the front yard. Iimmie went down the stairs and out into the yard with tears rolling over his little red face. He picked up his bear and put it into his little wagon and went over to Sandy, who by this time was up and looking for a new sleeping place. Iimmie said to the pup, Come on Sandy, let's you and me run away, 'cause no one likes us any more. Sandy must have thought this a good idea because he and Iimmie started out. Iimmie was pulling the little red wagon and Sandy was walking beside him, They went down to the corner and turned south across the street toward the railroad tracks. lust about that time the 20th Century was to go through town and Iimmie and Sandy were inside the gates and were halfway across the tracks when the train came whistling by. Sandy jerked Iimmie and pulled him past just in time, but the train hit the little red wagon and the teddy-bearg After the train had passed, the watchman ran to Iimmie. He was sitting up and was crying for his teddy-bear, but it was too late because the teddy-bear was no more. In the meantime Mrs. Mahoney noticed her son's absence in the front yard and she went to find him. lust then she saw the watchman coming up the street with Iimmie in his arms and Sandy trailing along behind. Nlrs. Mahoney almost fainted as she learned what had happened, but she took the small boy from the watchman's arms and carried him home. That night Sandy got to sleep in Maggie Dolan's living room beside the fire- place. Maggie had pulled her rocker beside him and every now and then she would reach over and pat him on the head saying, By jibber'n be gosh, ye hain't sech a bad dog after all, Sandy. -Thomas Stoller.

Crimson, 1931. PAGE SEVENTY-SEVEN THE CRIMSON 1931 Class Day Exercises sALuTAToRY THE CLASS of '3l extends to you its heartiest greetings. We have been living in a small world of our own for the past four years and are now very glad to share our last few hours in it with our friends, into whose world we are soon going. When we entered high school as freshmen, we adopted the motto, Not at the top, but climbing. Today we have gained the top of one of the highest hills we set out to reach-graduation. From this view we can now see more clearly the many heights beyond. We are happy to welcome you here this afternoon, that you might share with us our joy at having attained our goal. We were only able to do so through your splendid help and encouragement along the way, which makes us doubly glad for your presence today. During this short hour, we would like to give you a glimpse of what we have done during our four years sojourn at high school, and what it has done for us. We will tell you of our many disappointments, our many more joys, our future hopes, and some of the inspirations we have received along the way. To our program this afternoon, the Class of '31 bids you a cordial and sincere welcome. -Roberta Hauder. PRESIDENTS ADDRESS Friends: ITI-I the passing of today the activities of the class of '31 as a unit will be history. But with the passing of today the class of '31 as individuals with the audacity of youth will attempt the making of new history. We are going out into life to attempt to scale the heights. It will be with us as it is with the climbers of a high and dangerous mountain. Some will reach the top, others will get part way, and still others my slip and. fall, but whether we become world conquerers or day laborers every one of us will be happier and better because of the years we spent in Goshen High School. The sadness that we feel because of being forced to leave behind us the glory, honor, and struggle that is the lot of a high school student is partially alleviated by the knowledge that we are leaving these behind only for the chance to do bigger and better things. But whether we do or not we shall always look back upon our life here as a world we have left behind. -Mac Cripe. PAGE SEVENTY-EIGHT THE CRIMSON 1931 HISTORY HN SEPTEMBER back in 1927 a group of Knowledge Seekers entered Goshen High School. This is nothing unusual, for every year Miss Galentine, principal of Junior High School, send over just such a group of eager pupils. But this was some- thing different because the above mentioned was what later turned out to be the class of 1931. The Hrst few weeks were quite interesting to this group. The members were like participants in a treasure hunt, looking for rooms, trying to find lockers, and trying to discover the right doors to enter or leave the building. Several members of this group were sent to the third floor to find the gymnasium. The class had all the appearances of a freshman class. The members were small, meek, quite, bashful little fellows, who took all the blows with a smile and came back for more. It was this stick-to-itiveness, when the grades for the first six weeks were announced, that caused the class to have a large number on the honor-roll. This class has been well represented on the honor roll every six weeks since. Ruth Sharpe, a freshman and member of the class of 1931, was awarded an honor sweater for her scholastic record. The first semester having been completed with the group surviving the storm of final exams very nicely, the class of 1931 was officially organized in Ianuary, 1928, Bob Welty was elected president and Miss Beaman and Mr. Stubbs were chosen as class sponsors. During the second semester the honor roll continued to increase. Three students were awarded sweaters for their high scholastic standings. They were Dorothy Troyer, Ruth Sharpe and Madlyn Walter. The class of 1931 ended the first quarter of the game of High School Education with a skating party at Blosser's Park. The class was completely organized and was hanging up scholastic records on every honor roll. The class returned in September, 1928 to take up the second quarter of the game of High School Education. Blair Rieth was chosen as captain for the second quarter of the game. Our sponsor Mr. Stubbs having accepted a position in another school, his place in the faculty was filled by Mr. Stoner who also became sponsor of the class, This semester brought the first football letter to be given to a member of the class of 1931. Iohn Hoke, the representative, received his letter for taking the places of Big Ice Yoder, and Eddie Anglemyer, Several other boys who were too small to make the grade, showed that they had the stuff that it takes to make a football team. The honor-roll continued to fill up with the names of members of the class of 1931. This semester Valeria Barnard, Roberta Hauder, and Ruth Sharpe were awarded honor sweaters. Those who survived the finals in January fthe percentage was very highj con- tinued in the line-up. By this time the knowledge seekers began to understand what a high school education really was. They learned the tricks of the trade along with what not to do, Madlyn Walter represented the class in the honor sweater department. PAGE SEVENTY-NIN E THE CRIMSON 1931 The class of 1931 closed the second quarter of the game with a skating party in the High School Gymnasium. The class returned in September, 1929, as Iuniors, to continue in the third quarter of its game. Roy Umble was elected president to lead the class through this year of many activities. The semester sped by. The honor-roll remained well covered with names of the members of the class of 1931. Marguerite Gardner, Madlyn Walter, and Dorothy Troyer received scholarship sweaters for the excellent records during this semester. The final semester of the Iunior Year of the class had arrived. The time passed very fast until one day there was an assembly in the auditorium. The purpose of this assembly was to advertise the Junior class play Seven Chances. The play was a huge success. Finally the day, that all Iuniors look ahead to, arrived. The Iunior- Senior Prom was held in the gymnasium on May 29. This event ended the activities of the Iuniors as the Iunior class. The scholarship sweater fund was used to buy Harriet Mick and Blair Rieth sweaters for their records during this second semester of the junior year. The summer vacation had finally come and the class was dismissed for the sum- mer. In September, 1930 the class of 1931 returned to school as dignified Seniors. Mr. Stoner was awarded a trip to Europe, leaving a vacancy in the faculty and also leaving the class of 1931 without a man sponsor. His successor Mr. Shanklin was chosen to take his place as sponsor. Mac Cripe was chosen as president for this last year in Goshen High School. He had a job ahead of himself, what with the Senior play, Class Day, the Prom and Hnally leading the class to Commencement. Valeria Barnard and Elmer Culp were chosen as Editor-in-chief and Business Manager respectively of The Crimson Staff. Ancel Whittle and Iohn Hoke were appointed co-captains of the football team. Eight seniors were awarded letters. The following students were awarded scholarship sweaters: Elmer Culp, Roberta Hauder, Dona Belle 1-lepler, Harriet Rummel, Dorothy Troyer, and Eleanor Free- man. The dreaded Hnal exams of the first semester not effecting the Senior Class notice- ably the class of 1931 continued into the last semester of the fourth quarter of the game of High School Education. The Senior play, Skidding, ' was given April 30 and May 1. The ticket sale was very good, the play being a real comedy. The class held a Senior Hop on May 15. The final Senior assembly was held on May 27, when the Seniors had charge of a very interesting assembly program. On May 29, the IuniorfSenior Prom was held in the gymnasium. Thus the ac- tivities of the class as part of the school ended. Baccalaureate Services were held May 31. Class Day and Commencement exercises were held on Iune 4. Using an expression of Coach Byers, This game is history and we must now think of the next game. The next game is that of Higher Education. -Paul Stoller. PAGE EIGHTY THE CRIMSON 1931 CLASS GRUMBLE As a member of this class of '31 I have been unable to see the bright sides of this institution which my friends have so glowingly described to you. Everything seems dark to me. In the short time I have to speak I will try to point some of the many hazards that the members of this Senior class have had to go through and put up with. In spite of the fact we have been able to make part of the grade, we are not at the top, but climbing. I had to write this Grumble six weeks before I had to give it. After I had it all finished for the printer, I was asked to do it over. The Hrst year we entered school we were ruled by the upper-classmen and the faculty. If we were late to class the teacher in charge of that room sent us to the office. There the principal greeted us as if we were dogs. Being afraid to defend our- selves, we meekly took the pink slips he willingly gave us. We hurried back to class because the time we left was written on the slips. Every room in this building has a clock. All of them are regulated by the master clock in Mr. Foreman's office and each room has its own time, not one of them is like another. If the time on the slips of paper did not correspond with the teacher's clock we are immediately lectured to before the whole class and asked where we had been. If we students are lucky enough to get three of these slips and never make them up by staying long hours after school, which many of us hate to do, we are privileged to take our final examinations upon request, regardless how good our grades are, Exemption grades in our sophomore year were raised about five per cent which made a lot of us take our exams at the end of each semester. We worked hard and if some of the teachers noticed our grades were rising, which they seldom did, they use other methods of trying to flunk us. They wanted us to lose our credits. U's were freely given for improper conduct, such as cutting across the campus lawns. When- ever we do want to enjoy ourselves, someone else tries to take the joy out of life. Chewing gum, they tell us, isn't nice, but I've seen them trying to do it behind my back, yet they go to church. The most distressing to all my friends is that when boys are seen walking down the corridors with girls, U's are promptly given them. I don't see anything wrong with that. Isn't it being nice to the young ladies? I know, those same persons re- member how they used to have good times, it makes them jealous because they can't do it now. It makes it tough for us. I wish that somebody would make rules around this school and stick to them, sometimes they are as flexible as a piece of rubber. Some teachers stretch those rules and make them to suit themselves. One evening I came out to the gym where I found Mr. Schenck and Mr. Ulery fighting like cats and dogs all because they could not decide on who was eligible to play in a certain class team tournament. I have given you a brief summary of some of the many things that go on around this school. There is one thing that I regret and that is the fact that this will be the last time I will be able to tell this school what I think about it. I hope in the future these faults will be corrected so that the students that follow me will not have to put up with them as I have. But then they will Grumble more than I because I have to leave. -Ancel L, VVhittle. PAGE EIGHTY-ONE THE CRIMSON 1931 CLASS ORATION Climbing Ladies and Gentlemen: THE one great goal of any real man is success. Whether he may be a doctor, lawyer, carpenter, or teacher, his aim is to make a success of his work, that it may not have been in vain. The ways to success are comparable to two ladders. One is an old, weak, sag- ging ladder, the steps far apart. Climbing by this route is uncertain and laborious. This ladder represents the trial and error method of a man who seeks success without proper educational and physical preparation. The second ladder is straight and strong. The steps are close together, making climbing easy. This ladder represents the steady progression toward success of the person who is adequately prepared. But the first step is high above the ground and inaccessible to the unaided traveller. The wise man travels with guides. These are his teachers, parents, and friends, who give him a boost up the ladder on a sure and safe path to success. The timid and the weak, unable to reach the first step, are forced to try the other ladder. The Class of 1931 has reached the first step on the direct route to success. Its members have been given that training which will enable them to choose the best policies in their higher climbing. A worker may know what should be done and what is best and yet be unable to carry out this work because he lacks the proper tools. Likewise a person may know which problems need immediate solving, but he may lack the education to solve them himself, He needs tools for his mental work just as he needs them for his physical labor. Goshen High School has given the Class of 1931 such knowledge of the sciences, languages, and special subjects as may be required to solve most of the important problems of life. We have been shown the best path by which we may climb to success. We have been endowed by the world with such privileges, such opportun- ities for the wise pursuit of happiness, as no generation has ever enjoyed. My friends, you cannot expect many of the members of the class of 1931 to earn a place in history for their names. Nature bestows the ability and opportunity for work of lasting effect upon a select few. But, prepared as we are for the battles of the future, there should be no doubt that the best use will be made of our knowl- edge. The Class of 1931 as individuals may attain much success but, since perfection can never be reached, we will always be Unot at the top, but climbingf: -Elmer Culp. PAGE EIGHTY-TWO THE CRIMSON 1931 1uN1oR ADVICE ILINIORS: IT IS now my privilege, pleasure, and honor, to smother you with advice from the class of '3l. Perhaps you have noticed the large supply of pink slips in the office, and have wondered what they were for. They are merits of honor and may be secured by simply arriving late to school or class without an excuse. By striving hard you should be able to secure a sufficient number to make you an outstanding member of your class. We might do well to increase your knowledge of the U system. U's are given to make you eligible for your examinations and to better your reputation throughout the school. They are easily gotten and freely given, but in many cases are not fully appreciated by the students. To receive a U you need only to play ping-pong or basketball with a paper wad in the study hall or class room. But per- haps you are not fond of indoor sports. In this case you may hold a conversation with your next door neighbor. This will always bring results. Should you have a sore throat that pains you when you try to talk, you may still secure one by chewing one of Mr. Wrigley's products. If no chewing gum is to be had you may proceed to carve your initials on your desk. This method is not very profitable as too much time and work is required for so small a reward. One of the best and most highly practical methods of obtaining one of these coveted U's is to walk arm in arm through the halls with one of the opposite sex. By following these few simple examples you will soon gain great renown throughout the school. Iuniors, we urge you to waste more of your school time, neglect your lessons, and pretend to know more than your teachers. Above all things do not support your school or take part in any activities,-it is plainly a waste of time. Bluff your way along. If you want to be a star football or basketball player next year, sit around all summer, or play indoor golf. What ever you do don't train. Never do today what you can put off till tomorrow. Now Iuniors, if you follow this advice you will spend the rest of your days in Goshen High School and will be a miserable failure throughout life. -Lewis Fidler. F5313 2213! PAGE EIGHTY-TH REE THE CRIMSON 1931 CLASS PROPI-IECY LAST night I had a vision. I sat in my old, grey tower studying the stars and moon, whose light Hooded thru the casement into my room. Shadows crouched in the corners, and flitted across the wall whenever I stirred. As I gazed out into the night, it seemed that the stone wall of my chamber began to fade. Gradually it seemed to melt into the darkness: then it was gone, and in its place a beautiful city, glistening in the afternoon sunlight, stretched out before me. A cloud wrapped itself about me, and I went down into the city, and walked through its streets, unseen It was a city with towering skyscrapers and lovely parks. Surely, it could not be- yes, there at the park entrance was a sign, Goshen Municipal Park. In the middle of the park was a huge building, surrounded by hedges and trees, When I drew nearer, I could distinguish the word 'Museum' over the door. Beside the steps was the corner stone on which was inscribed, Erected in 1946 by Robert McClintic, philanthropistf' I peeped inside the door, and there in the place of honor was an old model T Ford. Hearing excited voices, I pushed a door ajar, and glanced farther into the room. There was Grace Scheets talking animately to an old keeper, But I tell you I am the buyer for Mademoiselle Florence Stephenson's Antique Shop, and we just must have that old bronze tablet that was taken from the ofiice of the Goshen I-Iigh School. The keeper refused, and the argument continued. Curious, I drew near, and read from the tablet, Here, while waiting for a pink slip, Wilma Sharpe, Americas greatest poetess, received inspiration to write her masterpiece The Excuse. I turned away and started back to the doorway, but I paused a moment to examine a queer old gun which hung on the wall. Beside it was a little card which read, This is the gun once used by Wayne Gard, renowned big game hunter. Now I drew the cloud closer about me, and drifted from the park to the business district. The noise of the traflic was intense, but above the roar I heard a voice. It seemed familiar. Why it was Mac Cripe, for the voice cried, This is station K. Y. W. broadcasting, with Mac Cripe, at the Amike'. You have just heard a lecture by Iunior Miller, well known anti-suffrigist, on 'Why Womans Place Is In The I-Iome'. We will now announce our afternoon's program. From 4:30 until 5:00 P. M. Se- quester Sleppy, famed globe trotter, will tell us 'How to go Around the World on Eight Cents'. By this time I had turned a cornerg and there a block and a half down the street was the radio. The voice continued, Miss Dortha Roe, Grand Opera star, will sing from 5:00- 5:15. Beginning at 5:15, the Iazette Orchestra under the direction of Dorothy Troyer will play until 6:15 from the main dining room of the Hotel Randolph in Chicago, a unit of the chain hotels owned by Ioseph Randolph. From 6:15 to 6:45 Miss Vada Berry and Miss Harriet Mick will give a recital of organ music. At 6:45 Mr. Lewis Fidler, greatest of Iazz singers, will croon over the international hookup. Walter Bcklebarger will entertain the children from 7:15 until 7:30 with his daily bed time stories. It is 4:30 now, and we will listen to Mr. Sequester Sleepy, world famous- But by this time I had strolled nearly four blocks down the street, and at last the din of the traffic drowned the voice. PAGE EIGHTY-FOUR THE CRIMSON 1931 All the commotion and noise was beginning to wear on my nerves, so I darted into a tea shop. A modest little sign on the window proclaimed that it was 'Ye Elite Tea Shoppe', owned by Miss Kathryn Bandelier and Miss Burneta Holden. Grateful for the quiet coolness of the place, I sank into a satin covered chair and glanced about. Hearing low voices behind me, I peeked over the back of the chair, and saw Ieanette Emerick and Eleanor Freeman in earnest conversation with Margaret Ann and lane Nielsen. I gathered from the conversation that Ieanette had signed a contract with the Worth Saloon in Paris, employing her as Commercial Advertiser for the firm. She was urging Eleanor, who was owner of a huge dress designing business, and lane and Margaret Ann, who were proprietors of the 'Chic Hat Shoppe' to move their concerns to Paris. lust as I was about to leave the tea shop a smartly dressed woman entered. There was a craning of necks and a buzz of conversation throughout the room. I heard a woman near me whisper to her escort, She is Margaret Noble, you know, the one who paints horses. They say she can do them as well, if not better, than Rosa Bonheurln After I had left the tea room I wandered over to a theatre near by. There in glaring letters I read, Matinee: Richard Belasco, Mary Ebersole, and Margaret Grant, stars of the great picture 'High School Daze,' will appear in person. I thought I would like to see what they looked like after all these years, so I went to the stage door and entered, but there was such a crowd in front of the stars' dressing room doorslthat I would have been crushed had I tried to go on. I looked over the heads of the crowd, and saw Evelyn Markham, Ieanette Thiele, and Mary Summy, evident- ly the stars' private secretaries, trying to drive the admirers away from the three doors. I made my escape and then ambled on down the sidewalk. Here I noticed was a Beauty Shop owned by Thelma Stouder. Right beside it was a Doctors oflice on whose window was printed, 'Dr. Shurl Wogomon, Surgeonf After walking on a little way, I came to a large building on the front door of which was inscribed oflices . I opened the door, and started down a long corridor. on either side were oflice rooms. The first one I came to was an Employment Bureau operated by Lottie Stutzman and Dorothy Yoder, Across the hall was a huge glass door on which was printed in gold letters, Robert Miller, President of the Safety Can Opener Company. I glanced in the room while passing, and saw Ilah Knapp, Mabel Beechy, Thelma Chapman, Marjorie Cripe, Helen Culp, Mary Helen Darnell, Helen Duzy, and Violet Tully pounding busily away on typewriters, while lVIary lane Peter- son, evidently the President's private secretary, was giving dictation to Thelma Weaver, Beside this office was a frosted glass door which proclaimed that Elbert Miller, architect, had his office there. The other offices in the building belonged to Unadel McCrory, Dietitician, Constance Boshart, Landscape Gardener, Lester Berkey, Agricultural Agent, Ianet Lamberson, Interior Decorator and Mary Kathryn McClure, chairman of the local Humane Society. At last after leaving the building, and crossing the street, I started back on the other side. The first edifice I came to was a big, red stone church. A bulletin board in front of the church announced that Miss Kathryn Yoder, a missionary lately re- turned from Africa, would .speak that evening, and that the next night Rev. William Ridenoure, famous evangelist would deliver an address. PAGE EIGHTY-FIVE THE CRIMSON 1931 A narrow street cut across the main street near the church. As I passed it, I glanced thru the gathering dusk int the dingy byway. There on the steps of a big settlement house were Ruth Spotts, Ida Diephuis, and Dorothy Hoogenboom, settle- ment workers, leading several ragged children into the building. On my way back I passed a gleaming, enameled butcher shop owned by Paul Stoller. A little dog shop, kept by Mildred Foster stood beside the butcher's establish- ment. The Ieanette Dressmaking Company, managed by Ieanette Logan was near by. Now I had again reached the busier part of the town. As it was growing darker the electric signs were turned on. Near by was another theatre, whose electric signs advertised A'Galloping Hearts, a scenerio by Harriet Rummel, which had been direct- ed by Dorothy Hazel. The feature of the evening was an act by th great interpretive dancer, Roy Umble, and his accompanist junior Yoder. While passing a large hall, I heard rather a commotion, so I went in. The hall was packed with people who every now and then burst into a lusty cheer. Across one end of the hall was a huge canvas which fairly screamed at one, 'Hauder for Governor, Dewey, and Wissinger for Senator and Representative' On a platform beneath the sign stood Roberta Hauder, addressing the crowd with astonishing elo- quence, while Helen Dewey and Mary Kathryn Wissinger sat waiting their turn. Three newspaper reporters, Harriet Ulery, Leon Greenwalt, and Clay Smith sat in the front row, busily copying the campaign speeches. When I again returned to the street the newsboys were peddling the evening papers. I took a paper when the boy was not looking, and droppd a nickle in his pocket. Drawing the paper inside the cloud with myself, I hurried to a deserted door- way and examined its contents. The first thing I noticed was a small square in the upper left hand corner of the paper which proclaimed that Robert Zook and Robert Welty were the owners of the paper. Then in the headlines I saw that Charles Garringer and George Elliot, Civil en- gineers, had just contracted with the United States government to build a bridge across the Atlantic Ocean. , The paper announced that Professor Elmer Culp, famed scientist, had, after years of experiment, at last perfected a silencer for blowouts. The paper also carried on the front page an account of the A'ta.lking marathon between Miss Helen Lantz, and Miss Geneva Logan. It seemed that they had been talking steadily for 300 hours, and neither one, as yet, showed signs of weakening. I learned from the paper that Harold Monfort and Phil Sheridan had bought the Warner Brothers' Corporation. 3 Quite a bit of space was devoted to the explanation of a plan presented to Con- gress by Samuel Wiese, by which hot water could be piped from the Gulf Stream to all North America. PAGE EIGHTY-SIX THE CRIMSON 1931 I saw in the news dispatches that Mr. Blair Rieth, Ambassador to England was suffering from a severe cold in the head. Miss Wanda Tyler, so the paper said, was attempting in her new Ford speeder to break the speed record formally established by Miss Helen Spotts, . The paper declared that Miss Iune McConnell, well known aviatrix, was prepar- ing to break all altitude records in her next flight. On the second page was an account of a banquet given by the Association of Physical Education Teachers. At which, Miss Valeria Barnard, Dean of Girls at Vassar College, spoke on 'Athletics in the Modern Girls' Colleges' Miss Irene Rieff and Miss Lillie Tully, local physical training teachers also gave talks. Here I saw that Miss Dorothy Kauffman, Miss Marguerite Gardner, Miss Anna Garber, Miss Dorothy Strine, and Miss Betty Short, who were formerly nurses at Goshen Hospital, had gone to continue their work among the Kentucky mountaineers. Notice was given in the paper that Miss Madlyn Walter was made Librarian of the Congressional Library at Washington. While glancing thru the rest of the paper I saw a page entitled 'Household Hints,' edited by Bernice Hartzler. In the corner of this page I noticed a large advertise- ment of a Correspndence School in Public Speaking conducted by Professor Iohn Hoke. On the story page was an article by Stanford Cart, a mining engineer, recently returned to America, telling of his adventures in Africa. At last I turned to the sports page. There was a big account of the football game between the Southern California ten, coached by Ancel Whittle, and the Wisconsin team, coached by Wilbur Ganger. On the same page I read that Rose Adams, International Tennis Champion, had gone into training for the coming season at her home in Florida. In one corner was a picture of Bernice Zook, Ping Pong Champion and Clyda Geiser, Miniature Golf Champion, shaking hands after a game of Croquet. This adventure had made me very tired, so with the hum and whirr of the trafHc in my ears, I snuggled into the cloud, and went to sleep. Suddenly I awakened. It must have been the silence of the place that had startled me from slumber, for I was back in my tower. The moonlight was gone, and the shadows had crept from the corners, and were pressing close about me. -Dona Belle Hepler. PAGE EIGHTY-SEVEN THE CRIMSON 1931 THEWILL WE, the class of 1931 of Goshen High School, being of sound mind and body, do make, publish, and declare this our last will and testament in manner and form as follows: Item I. To the Iunior Class, we bequeath our seats in the auditorium, our per- fect order at class meetings, and our place as leaders of the school. Item II. We leave to the members of the Sophomore Class, our esteemed place on the honor roll. Item III. To the Freshmen, we give our ability to always have on hand a bounti- ful supply of money. Item IV. The incoming Freshmen are to receive Mr. Walter's fatherly interest in our class, in order that they may successfully overcome the trials and temptations of their Hrst year. Item V. Kathryn Bandelier leaves to Carmena Freeman her ability to maintain a lasting attraction for the blonde man of her choice. Item VI. Iunior Miller's position as center on the varsity basketball Hve, goes to Master Kenneth Nusbaum. After much consideration this decision was made be- cause of Kenneth's experience as mascot and his brunet complexion. We need variety. Item VII. Dorothy Troyer and Madlyn Walter will their scholastic ability to Billy Ulery. There is something for him to try and keep. Item VIII. Margaret Ann Nielsen willingly imparts her vivacity to Mary La- Rue. Mudge can easily acquire more. Item IX. Roy Umble reluctantly consents to leave his fear of the opposite sex to Richard Bigler. Item X. Walter Ecklebarger wills some of his surplus size to Charles Hoth with the hope that Charles may be able to make the football team next year. Item XI. Mac Cripe's shyness goes to Robert Self. We hope this is not taken seriously. Item XII. Dick Belasco gladly imparts his blush to Bob Holtzinger. Bob will ap- preciate that. Item XIII. Dortha R-oe bestows her bird-like voice upon Frank Weaver. This should help him when barking signals in football next fall. Item XIV. Bob Welty leaves his punctuality to Dick Blosser. There is nothing like being on time. Item XV. Elmer Culp's serious slant on life goes to his brother, Paul. It seems proper that this trait should remain in the family. Item XVI. Harriett Rummel wills her extensive vocabulary to Max Alhiem. This should aid him considerably in his arguments. PAGE EIGHTY-EIGHT THE CRIMSON 1931 Item XVII. Iohnnie Hoke bequeaths his ability at football, basketball, baseball, and track, as well as his beard, to Franklin Boggs. Item XVIII. I-Iarriet Mick and Harriett Ulery leave their supply of used gum to Charlie Burkett. Item XIX. William Yoder wills his collection of pink slips to the school. They are to be placed in the trophy case next year. Item XX. The members of the Ladies' Aid are leaving their renowned organiza, tion to be carried on by Darby Williams, Bob Donovan, Toby Yoder, and Iohn Dausman. Now there will be gossip! Item XXI. Dorothy I-Ioogenboom confers her quiet manner upon Mary Louise Barnhart. Item XXII. William Ride.noure's character impersonations go to Phil Yoder. S Item XXIII. Lewis Fidler wills his partiality to the Sophomore Class to Nelson org. Item XXIV. And last, Iunior Yoder consents to give his bass voice to Charles Huffman. The chorus will certainly benefit from this. We do hereby set our hand and seal on June 5, in the year nineteen hundred and thirty-one. Signed, -Leon Greenwalt -Iune McConnell. FQ? kid PAGE EIGHTY-NINE PAGE NINETY THE CRIMSON 1931 CLASSPOEM Through all kinds of high school weather, We have plodded on together, 'Till at last we've won the right to leave behind History books with all their pages, All the defects of the ages, All the burdens that have Hooded o'er our minds. Now, our journey is not ended, Nor have we been wholly blended Into life as we would live it day by dayg And the course is as uncertain As the blowing of a curtain, Yet the Class of 3l is on its way. Wish us God-speed on our journey, Let us know you too are yearning For our victory over conflicts we must meet. When we've passed beyond these portals, We shall pust be other mortals Made to labor under rays of human heat. With these farewell words we're parting, And into a new life starting, While we wish those left behind us much success: We are trusting part in fate, But however long you wait, Be assured that '3l has done its best! -Wilma Sharp P93 lriifti THE CRIMSON 1931 VALEDICTORY Ladies and Gentlemen: LOOKING back, we see we have had during our four years in high school, a time of extensive preparation, and of hard study intermixecl with broadening social activities. With the help of our instructors, and the co-operation of our class- mates, we are now ready for a new phase of life. Before us we see the world, not the towers and turrets of the cities of old, but the skyscrapers of today, There are two gates through the wall surrounding this new country: one leads to higher education, to the college and university: the other opens directly into the businesses of the world. To open these gates we are equipped with a sturdy key ring, the spirit of G. H. S., on which are suspended the keys of knowl- edge, co-operation, ambition, courage, and confidence, all master keys to either gate. As we stand ready to lit these keys to the lock of our choice, we pause to say farewell to Goshen High School and all that it has grown to mean to us, And in leaving we take with us a host of memories, which will be cherished through all the years. We would not stay longerg yet our hearts are moved as we say-farewell. -Dorothy Troyer. VALEDICTORY IT SEEMS ages ago but in reality it is somewhat less than four years since we, the class of 1931, entered the portals of this High School as Freshmen. Despite the gladness and joy of this occasion, our thoughts go back over these past four years we have spent together at school. Experiences and trifling incidents come back to us with startling vividness and importance as we make this final gesture. Years bring perspective. It is by this backward glance over the past that we see things as they really are. We realize that we have been enjoying golden days in a realm of kindness and tolerance. We realize now something of what our high school education has meant in terms of effort on the part of our parents, teachers, and this community. Emerging from these happy protected years, we, the class of 1931, will be faced by many disturbing conditions. The world is passing through a period of economic and industrial depression-distress and hardship follow this condition. Nevertheless, we are eager to prove our mettle in whatever test of circumstance life may bring and we look to the future optimistically. We have acquired a high regard for the dignity of labor-the toil of the hands as well as the head. Labor is the mighty magician who advances civilization through the channels of art, sciences, music, and invention. We have been proud of our high school achievements. We feel sure the spirit of the Class of 1931 will not falter through the years and that our shining ideals shall not be dimmed. The moment of farewell is here. To our parents, teachers, and this community, we can only thank you from our hearts and tell you that it is our life's ideal to justify by honorable and useful citizenship ,the efforts you have made for us. -Madlyn Walter.

The story opened in the summer of 1914 on a little garden scene where Iohn Cartaret, Darby Williams, and his friend, Dr. Owen Harding, Meredith Koerner, were none to busily engaged in a game of blackgammon. However, the game board was soon abandoned as the players got in a heated argument over the lack of interest Cartaret displayed in the little contest. lust as they decided never to speak to each other again Kathleen, Cartaret's niece, Ianet Miller, entered the little garden gate, smiled sweetly at the two childish old men and they immediately forgot their pettish quarrel and joined toasts in a cup of tea, brought to them by Ellen, the house woman. very well played by Helen Everett in the first and third acts and equally as well by Agnes Smoker in the second act. Kathleen, who was at her wit's end as to how to get rid of Willy, Frank Weaver, an ardent admirer from a near-by farm, wandered idly about the garden, thinking of Kenneth Wayne, Kenny Mount, her forbidden lover, who was leaving the following day to enlist in the war. She had begged many times for her uncle's permission to see Kenny, and each time had been refused: even the pleas of Harding, Cartaret's oldest and best friend failed to turn him from his prejudice against young Wayne. In desparation, Cartaret offered to tell Kathleen the story of his own shattered romance. The curtain lowers on the first act and rises again to the strains of Smilin' Through. The scenery is the same but the date is fifty years previous 1864, the little garden is highly decorated with festive flowers, lanterns and ribbons, for this is the night that CQYQHIQ is tO marry Moonyeen, a beautiful Irish girl, very finely played PAGE NINETY-FOUR THE CRIMSON 1931 by Audre' lane Yoder. The wedding guests-Marajane Burkett, Betty Hulwick, Mary La Rue, Roberta Yoder, Ben Yoder, Richard Bigler and Gordon Blender, dance merrily about the garden, throwing shoes hanging lanterns, and kidding the bride to be. However, the guests leave the garden, allowing Cartaret to be alone with his lovely bride and while the two are discussing their first meeting, mutual love and the beauty of it all, Ieremiah Wayne, an unsuccessful suitor of Moonyeen's excellently acted by Luther Cripe, enters the garden, begs once more for Moonyeen to marry him and upon her refusal, draws a gun, shoots her, killing her almost instantly and flees, being heard of no more except through Kenneth, who is his son. Cartaret was utterly crushed. The curtain lowered on the most dramatic scene of all, Cartaret was bending tenderly over his dying sweetheart, Moonyeen was whispering sweetly her last good-bye, and the audience was weeping audibly. ln the third act, Kathleen is very sad, the war is over, no word has been re- ceived from Kenneth and her uncle is often melancholy, sitting for hours on moon- light nights and dreaming of his dead sweetheart. Cartaret's bosom pal, Harding, has discontinued speaking to Iohn because of an argument they had over Kathleen's lover, Kenneth. Owen is heartbroken over their quarrel, as is Iohn, also over the fact that Kathleen will have to go through life unhappy because of her bull headed uncle, Ken- neth, ,who has returned from war is making his home with Harding, has decided never to see Kathleen again for fear she will want to marry him out of pity and he would become a decided handicap to her freedom. However, Harding knows how Kathleen feels and with a great effort he swallows his pride, begs Cartaret to allow the marriage and Finally wins his consent. That night Iohn is again seated in the garden, it is moonlight and he is patiently awaiting the appearance of Moonyeen. Finally she comes, tells him that he did right in consenting to the marriage, and Iohn, thoroughly happy, dies. -Carmena Freeman. PAGE NINETY-FIVE c ' ' It ' ,: F' surfed' Eric: fQnAi1f4'g its sw if aasff-ffizgf-'12- -2 'ca THE CRIMSON 1931 Senior Play SKIDDING THE Hardy family certainly had their troubles, both matrimonial and political, according to Skidding, the Senior Class Play, given April 30 and May 1, 1931. lt seems that the members of the Hardy family, Iudge Hardy-Mac Cripe, Mrs. Hardy-Harriet Rummell, Aunt Milly-Florence Stephenson, Grandpa Hardy-Leon Greenwalt, and Andy-lunior Yoder, were having a terrible time worrying about the judge's nomination for was it the election, Mrs. Hardyffl as district judge. More complications arrived in the shape of Marion Hardy-Ieannette Emerick, who had been away to college, and her sweetheart, Wayne Trenton III-Ancel Whittle, a civil engineer from the East. Marion is a modern young miss and has some very deHnite ideas about her future and especially politics and careers for women. Their trouble hadn't begun until Myra Hardy Wilcox-Eleanor Freeman, and Estelle Hardy Camp- bell-Harriett Ulery, came home, declaring they had left their husbands. fMyra's husband was too fickle and Estelle's was too much of a stay-at-home personl. Things got a bit too complicated, so mother Hardy left home. Qln fact she left her girls and went home to her mothernl. Mr, Stubbins-Roy Llmble, a political friend of the Iudge, does his best to get both Papa Hardy and Marion into political positions. He finally succeeds and Marion makes some campaign speeches for her father, and she herself is elected to the state legislature. ln spite of all the schemes and cross currents of fate, everything comes out all right. Marion gets engagedg her sisters go back to their husbandsg mother comes home, the judge gets nominated to the Supreme Courtg and they all live happily ever after. PAGE NIN ETY-SIX THE CRIMSON 1931 ln this play the Seniors certainly showed that they had some people with splendid dramatic ability and produced a wonderful play.. Ieannette Emerick was just what one would expect a sweet young girl with a complex for campaign speeches to beg and Ancel Whittle, the dashing hero, showed quite convincingly that modern young men are quite like they always have been, when it comes to asking Papa for the hand of his 'Aheart's desire. Where could a better mother have been found than Harriet Rummel, who loved them and scolded them for their faults all through the play? Then there was Mac Cripe, but we almost didn't recognize him in his new role as a gentle, patient, old gentleman. Leon Greenwalt as the lovable, old Grandfather, was rather bewildered by the excitement and confusion. Leon acted this difficult role with perfect ease and grace, There, of course, was Roy Umble, who made an ideal campaign manager and who had a difficult role to play, and who played it quite well. Eleanor Freeman, the sophisticated elder sister, and Harriett Ulery, the hysteri- cal young mother, were typical characters to be found in almost every family. Aunt Milly-Florence Stephenson, understood and loved them all, and even Andy -junior Yoder, the kid brother, who was, as is usual, the trial of the family. junior just acted natural and won the hearts of the audience. This cast played to a full house both nights, The laughs and applause of the audience showed how immensely they enjoyed the rollicking comedy, and especially the boyish pranks of Andy. The play, a three act Comedy, written by Aurania Rouveral, was directed by Miss Katharyn DeWees, who has directed the high school plays for several years, and who has produced some very fine performances. -Dona Belle Hepler.
