MARIOBIE BOYLES lt was in September, 1938, that 155 brilliant, young students entered Hartford City High. As Freshmen Mr. Warner and Miss Greene were our sponsors. Our officers were Bill Ervin, president, Paul Werry, v. president, lim Maddox, secretary, Gene Mills, treasurer. During the year, we enjoyed a carry-in supper followed by a party. ln the fall of 1939, 134 of our group returned to compose the sophomore class. Mr. Warner and Miss Greene were again our sponsors. Paul Werry Was elected president, Dick Lyons, v. president, Marjorie Boyles, secretary, and Gene Mills, treasurer. Our ac- tivities of the year included the sale oi tickets for a barn dance and a party. As juniors, We numbered 119. We had waited a long time for this year. We presented The Dark House as our class play and sponsored a movie to further increase our funds. A class party and a Ir Sr. mixer provided our entertainment during the year. Then came the big event-the lr. Sr. prom. Nancy Rogers was elected queen of the prom. Miss Greene and Mr. Telle ably assisted us this year. Our officers were Paul Werry, president, Pat Hendricks, v. president, Molly lane Fulton, secretary, and leanne.Musse1man, treasurer. At last we are SENIORS! We have had many good times and enjoyed every minute of our time in school. Of course there were times when we ran into difficulties, but 99 of us have survived. Again this year, We have Miss Greene and Mr. Telle as sponsors. Our officers are Pat Hendricks, president, lim Maddox, v. president, Marjorie Boyles, secretary, Mary Catherine Sills, treasurer. Our high school days will come to an end with our last jr. Sr. prom and banquet, Class Day, presentation of the Retro, Baccalaureate, and finally Commencement.

We'll miss you kids we leave behind to fill our empty places, And most of all We'll miss the smile that lights up all your faces. Although our time is nearly spent and closing time is nigh, We'll carry with us memories of dear old Hartford High. Although it's awful hard to say, I guess it's time to scramg So, remember us just as we were when we took our last exam. And now as we leave our cherished school and you, the happy throng, May these walls vibrate forevermore our first and last, SO LONG. Klan, Song, CTo the tune of Paradise? And so we say good-bye M-m-m-m-m-rn-m-m To our old Hartford High. M-m-m-m-m-m-m-rn Through smiles, through tears In future years, we shall glance o'er the Space of the past. There we may wend our ways' M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m Once more through high school days' M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m The halls we wandered through, A junior prom, the friends we knew ln our hearts will live' always. -Iudy Rawlings. -Harrold R.

The prom was held May l6 and Bill Miller and his orchestra furnished the downbeat. The high school gym Was elaborately decorated to represent an undersea garden. Shortly after the opening of the dance,HCHS's first prom queen, Nancy Rogers, was crowned. Follow- ing this was the grand march led by our queen and the junior class president, Paul Werry. All had a very enjoyable evening. The banquet was held a Week later at the United Brethern Church. Dinner music was furnished by the Ball State Trio. Paul Werry, president of the junior class, welcomed the seniors and Ioe Bonham, senior president, responded for the guests. The speaker tor the evening was Dr. Stary of Ball State College, a former teacher in Czechoslavakia.

Occulaafionfi rogra m At the beginning of the second semester a new program was introduced at HCHS. ln fact, the program is new in this state, our school being the first in Indiana to inaugurate it. Plans were outlined at the first of the year, and on February 1 the resulting outline came into active operation. The Diversified Occupations program is designed to meet the many-sided labor needs of this community. Students work on a part-time basis, usually in the morning or afternoon. A special class is held at school for those students employed outside in the city's industries. Class time is devoted to the student-worker's needs in his or her particular job: later the student puts the skills of the class room into practical use while on the job. Mr. Lawrence P. Myers is the supervisor and industrial coordinator of this new scheme and he acts between employer and student-worker. His program has the official endorse- ment of the Central Labor Council and the Civilian Defense office. Since only a few schools in the country offer such a course, material and textbook matter are exceedingly difficult to acquire. ln spite of the lack of precedent to guide him, however, Mr. Myers is going ahead swiftly with a project that we fully expect to develop into a big com- munity gain. The following students are enrolled in the course: Lauren Slater, Paul lohnsonbaugh, Paul Green, Vera Stump, Bernice Fisher, Betty Russell, ludith Raw- lings, Paul Guy, Vaughn Ridgeway, Robert Clark, Margaret Schmidt, Helen Miller, Maxine Farling, Cliff- ord Risley, Martha McColly, LeRoy Sprowl, Fred Miller, and Iames DeWitt. 1 N 4 1 5 .

Mr. lmhoff, a man of diversified tal- ents, came to our city after five years of unusually successful coaching experience at North Liberty High School and at Purdue University. The school is indeed privileged to possess his services. Kenneth Dorton received the coveted Ki- wanis Award in l933 and after four years of athletic activity at Indiana Central College, he became head coach at Wa- terloo High School for three years before returning to his alma mater as assistant coach. His assistance to' our teams, and espe- cially as coach of the Freshman team, is appreciatively recognized by the school. Iames Weddle comes to Hartford City after three auspicious years as coach at Van Buren High School. The records at- tained by his teams in the past have been very laudable. As coach of our Iunior High team, an excellent record was compiled: and after winning the four-way tourney at Roll, a trophy was awarded to our school. Mrs. Mary Ellen Herbaugh is complet- ing her third year as supervisor of girls' sports at Hartford High. She is very well liked by the girls and has given them a wide Variety of interests. The girls engage in basketball, volleyball, gymnastics, handball, swimming, and badminton. Much emphasis is placed on life saving.

This year the award goes to Paul Werry, a boy who has worked earnestly and steadily throughout his high school days. Though his actual playing time has been some less than that of his team-mates, Paul's qualifications have more than met the strict requirements es- tablished bythe Kiwanis Athletic Committee.

THE IRHIAHS We are all proud ot our Airedales. Their season's record of thirteen Won and seven lost was the best compiled by our varsity in seven seasons. ln our Northeastern Indiana Confer- ence, We climbed from the cellar to second place in one season, which in itself is no mean feat. We sincerely congratulate the boys, their coach, and all others who helped our team attain so successful a year. 5 4841 9 MM ' Nov, 5 43 Hartford City-Gas City 15 We combined good pass Work, a lightning fast break, and a good defense to defeat a veteran Tiger team. The high scoring showed their zone defense was not impregnable. Nov. 7 41 Hartford City-Warren 19 Another swift game with the Lightning Five presented us as a well-oiled machine. Bob Frahm collected 15 points to pace the scoring. NOV- 12 15 Hartford City-Montpelier 13 Our firsthtrip netted us a close decision with the Pacers. After a hotly-contested battle with neither team able to connect consistently, we came through with our third straight win. NOV- 14 14 Hartford City-Burris, Muncie 32 .The Burris lineup of giants and our inability to connect with the basket cost us our first loss. We fought the Owls gamely till the final gun, but to no avail. The big Ball State floor was certainly no advantage to us. NOV- 19 33 Hartford Cityflfendallville 31 After -a nip and tuck battle with the score tied several times, we eeked out a two-point win over the Comets. Our first NEIC victory was won on the local hardwood, NOV- 28 26 Hartford Cityfldluffton 18 We came through a rough scrap with the Tigers unscathed and with another cpnfirencetvictory. We led all the way, and at one point had the comfortable margin o porn s. Dec. 5 35 Hartford CityiPeru 31 Hank Coats' 14 tallies led us to victory over a rangy Circus City five. We broke an 8-8 tie at the outset of the second quarter and played brilliant ball, leading the rest of the Way. Dec. 6 13 Hartford City-Central Ft. Wayne 46 Direct from a hard game the night before, we journeyed north to meet the Tigers. Recognized as one of the best teams in the state, we proved no match for them. Central unveiled a fine display of both offensive and defensive power. Dec. 12 31 Hartford City-Portland 12 We unbelievably shut out the Panthers 22 to 0 the first half! Our defense and fast break worked to perfection. Last year's sectional champions own floor proved of no advantage to them. Dec. 19 34 Hartford City-Columbia City 20 Gardner and Gilbert starred as we won another conference victory. The game progressed at a dizzy pace, bewildering the tall and hefty Eagles. Dec. 23 35 Hartford City-Alexandria 37 We failed to play our usual flashy brand of ball at Alexandria and acquired our third loss of the season. Ray Gilbert's 15 points proved of no avail against the Tigers. Ian. 9 29 Hartford City-Ridgeville 16 We stepped out in our new gold suits and defeated the Cossacks from Randolph County for our ninth victory. Ridgeville was right on our heels until the third quarter when we gained a nine-point advantage. George Fuller proved the star of the evening with four field goals. Ian. 16 39 Hartford City-fl-luntington 52 Sadly outclassed in both height and weight, we gamely met the Vikings. The game progressed at a torrid pace, at times resembling a football contest. The Vikings played the last minute with but three players, the remainder of their team banished from the floor. lan. 23 32 Hartford CityfDunkirk 42 Crippled by the loss of two varsitymen due to sickness, we went to Dunkirk and headed the Speedcats for the first half, then failed dismally as four regulars were forced to the sidelines. lan. 30 31 Hartford CityePendleton 22 Fuller and Coats led our attack as we exchanged our usual fast brand of ball for a slower, deliberate type to defeat Bob Dro's Irish crew. Feb. 6 38 Hartford City4Berne 31 We displayed an accurate passing attack and an impregnable defense which forced the Bears to use unusual one-handed shooting tactics. Neal Gardner returned from his sickbed to give a stellar exhibition and pace our attack with 12 points. Feb. 7 33 Hartford City-Hagerstown 19 Traveling to Hagerstown the next evening, we used a cautious, deliberate style to down the Tigers. Rex Rudicel's boys never threatened, being limited to 28 shots. Feb. 13 33 Hartford City-Garrett 41 After the long trip to Garrett, we were unable to overcome the red hot Railroaders early 16 point lead. Ray Gilbert sparked a rally which brought us within one point of thern, but they again pulled away for an eight point decision. Feb. 17 43 Hartford City-Decatur 32 We closed our home season with a victory over the Yellow Jackets. The game was nip and tuck during the first half, but we pulled away in the second half when our fast-passing offensive came to light. Calvin Waters played his season's best game, leading the scoring with 14 points.

He drew a bye in the first round and won his first bout. In the third round he was de- feated: but brought home some fine awards of which he may well be proud. Our congratulations to you, Vaughn! This year the cheer leaders' bench Was iilled by Gerry Needler and Gene Mills. Their Vim, vigor, and vitality pepped up the cheering sec- tion and fostered good sportsman- ship. Gene graduates this year, but we hope Gerry will be up and at it again next year. Bob Cronin faithfully devoted his last two years in school to the welfare of the team. He was capably and cheerfully assisted by Mac Myers and Dick Frahm. Their host of duties and worries was far overshadowed by the satisfaction of doing their bit for our competitive team. Khwr, Emp! Spam Some of our boys thrive on athletic activities, which were very lively during the past year. ln our program were basketball, tennis, volleyball, baseball, swimming, gymnastics, track, ping-pong, and boxing. Our pool has recently been renovated and is again one of the finest in the state. The boys spent lots of good times there! In addition, our school possesses two fine gymnasiumsg so our indoor facilities are very adequate. Basketball and gymnastics were enjoyed in the new gym, while volleyball was a favorite pastime in the old gym. Basketball is the predominate sport, and a very successful and well-planned program was carried out this season. In the class tourney the Seniors defeated the Freshmen, the luniors defeated the Sophomores, and the Juniors emerged winners by defeating the Seniors. Mem- bers of the winning team were lack Dolan, Bob Ducy, Dick Dorton, Neal Gardner, Bob Mur- phy, Wilfred Twibell, Everett Stroud, George Fuller, Gene Coats, Harry Pruden, and Vernon Lefevre. An extensive intramural program was arranged under the direction of Mr. Dorton and Mr. Weddle. The noon league winner, captained by lames lones, was composed of Tom Bennett, Fred Miller, Tom Cooper, Richard Stroble, Iack Chick, Bob Clark, and Iames Iones. The evening league title was won by the team captained by Bill Ervin, the members of which were Clarence Casterline, lunior Tatman, Gene Mills, Richard Brock, Wayne Wag- ner, Dale Schrack, Bob Fields, Bob Ducy, and Bill Ervin. ln the tourney between the leagues, the team of which Charles Knecht was leader won the crown. Members of this team were Iunior Buffenbarger, lack Moore, Byron Pursifull, Howard Robinson, lack lones, and Chit- Wit Knecht. A softball league was formed in the fall and the team with Bob Frahm as captain won the play-off. Members of his team were Calvin Waters, Frank Everhart, Bob Ducy, Gale Good, Warren Williams, lay Snow, and Bob Frahm. All in all, our athletic program was very well rounded and enabled every boy further to develop those character traits for which the program was organized. 4 iw, I M 3 1 s Rua, 35 :YM fm? Q 5?

Under the supervision ot Mrs. Herbaugh, several have learned to swim and instructions in lite saving and artificial respiration have been stressed. Through out the year, the girls' sports activities have centered mainly around ping-pong, badmin- ton, volley ball, iolk dancing, and stunts. Spring weather permitted out-door activities ot sott ball. Springing from the group ot physical education classes is the Girls' Athletic Association, or G.A.A. At the beginning of the school year the association elected Dorothy Murphy as president, Virginia Winget as secretary, and Mary Ann Sebring as treasurer. Later the group hiked to Lake Placid, where they held a meeting and enjoyed a picnic. Meetings are held after school on designated days, and the members partake of different sports in the swim- ming pool or gym. Mrs. Herbaugh endeavors, through student cooperation and sportsmanship, to establish all the necessary qualities and skills for a fundamental knowledge of general physical ed- ucation. This is accomplished throughuthe sport program. Folk dancing and stunts help the individual students acquire poise, dexterity, and agility in co-ordination ot the body and mind. . . . . . . . . . . . . so those blood-curdling screams only mean that the girls are thoroughly enjoying themselves! , EEEQEMiE3EEAiil. 59'm E?H?i?EX5?H?wi Q sxH'KSE5Rf6V-3395353?5QS??f?HSQVKYK5515365QafwfwSEifQ?52??i.i?E51453525155JW91??94?35aa?i1-J?1?JW5?P595Si??5 ' -G' - A- - ft'S'f1f.-- if Y- KW- Y l.

These twenty-six books have shown us the changes brought about in our school as if through a gradual evolu- tion. This book, the 1942 RETRO, we like to think represents the climax of all past endeavors, and we hope in its pages we have succeeded in bringing you a true picture of HCHS as it is today. The first RETRO was created by the imaginative minds of the class of 1916. Desiring to leave some lasting me- morial to show progress of the school in 1916, the 35 mem- bers of this class saw embodied the prospects of a high school annual as such a memorial. The word RETRO means back or to look back over past acts , so the name of our annual was appropriately chosen. The first RETRO was 12 inches wide and 7V2 inches tall. The editor was Iames McKenna, now in the newspaper business in Michi- gan, and the business manager was Iames Emshwiller, who is practicing law here in Hartford City. Scanning this old book you see several pages of ingenious cartooning, created by Iames W. Hummer. Mr. Hummer is now in the air-con- ditioning business in Chicago. This first RETRO marked the beginning of the last will and testament and prophesy idea, a custom which has continued down through the years. Among the organizations pictured in the edition were the Latin Club fthe oldest club in the history of the schooll, the German Club, the T. T. S. E. Club, the Orchestra, and of course, the mighty Airedales, then unnamed. Each year following 1916 brought frequent changes in the make-up and styling of the book until we now have our RETRO of most recent production. Padded covers now re- place the former paper ones, there is no advertising in our later volumes, individual pictures of underclassmen have superseded the old-style group pictures: and of later years greater emphasis is put upon clubs and athletics. An ex- ample of these many changes is shown in the way the size of the book has varied over these twenty-six years. Two of the early annuals were longer than they were wide, and in 1935 the book shrank to the size of 8530 by 53A . Since then the books have all been approximately 72 by IOL . In early volumes the covers were rather dark in color, now the styles have a brighter and more streamlined appearance. Looking back into the personnel of other years, we find that in 1917 the RETRO had for its editor, Esther Cronin, now Mrs, Esther Daniels, a teacher at the William Reed School. The business end of that year's book was handled by Nelson Townsend, now on the staff of the Hartford City News-Times. The 1918 RETRO was edited by George Fulton, Ir. at present engaged in business with the Fulton Glass Company in Hartford City. The business manager that year was Iol-in Wilson, now living in Muncie. In 1919 the editor of the RETRO was Bowen Willman, now on the University of Illinois staff. The business manager was Raymond Dawson, since teaching at the University of Texas. I. Douglas Brushwiller was editor of the 1920 RETRO. Mr. Brushwiller moved to Indianapolis shortly after gradua- tion. The business manager in 1920 was Arthur Baker, now the manager of the Circle Theater in Indianapolis. The editor of the 1921 RETRO was LeRoy Fields, who resides at present in Hartford City: and the business manager was Phil Worthen, who, so we are told, is now managing theaters in California. In 1922 Malcolm Moore, now in the news- paper business in Michigan, was editor of the RETRO. Estel Rouse, who recently moved to Chicago, was the business manager that year. The 1923 RETRO had another girl for editor, Ruby Johnson, now Mrs. Earl T. Pifer, of Detroit, Michigan. The business manager was Bill Forkner who is also in Detroit. He is with the Eaton Manufacturing Company there. The 1924 RETRO was edited by Claude Gaver, a dramatic critic in New Yorkg the business manager, Blake Maddox, a dentist in Chicago. The editor of the 1925 RETRO was Canis Brockway, of Indianapolis, and the business manager was Paul Herbst, who lives somewhere in Ohio. In 1926 the RETRO was edited by Iohn Tharpe, now in business in Brookville, Indiana. The business manager that year was Fred Brickley, at present manager of the Mercer Lumber Company. ln 1927 Frances Campbelle, now Mrs. Ierry Keshan, was editor-in-chief of the RETRO, and Harold Markin, with the Baxter and Markin funeral home, was busi- ness manager. Franklin DeWald was editor of the 1928 RETRO. Mr. DeWald is now a lawyer. Iunior Powell, manager of a Woolworth store in Huntington Park, California, was the business manager. The editor of the 1929 RETRO was Mabel Fee, currently a teacher of English and French in HCHS. The business manager that year was Clyde Babbitt, who is at present employed with the Indiana General Service at Muncie. In 1930 Marion Stinson, now Mrs. Maurice Fleece of Anderson, was the editor. George Gardiner of the Mercer Lumber Com- pany was elected business manager. We find that in 1931 Armella Elliot, now Mrs. Robert Crist of Muncie, was editor- in-chief, Meyer Iones, the business manager. Recently Mr. Jones held a professorship in a college in Iowa until he joined up with our armed forces. In 1932 the editor of the RETRO was Edith Hendricks, now Mrs. Guy Ingram, of Newcastle. The business manager was Chester Russell, since employed here in Hartford City. Betty Hill became editor of the RETRO in 1933. She is now Mrs. William Smith of Indianapolis. The business manager was Harold Shumaker who has been on the staff of a Muncie newspaper. In 1934 Catherine Daugherty, employed now in Washington, D. C., was editor of the RETRO, and Iohn Kleefisch was the business manager. Mr. Kleefisch is in the grocery business with his father here in Hartford City. In 1935 Lillian Owens, now Mrs. Orlan Williams of Hartford City, was editor of the RETRO. The business end of the publication was handled by two people this year, Perry Smith and Bob Forkner. Mr. Smith is in Hartford City at present, and Mr. Forkner is an engineer at Delco-Reme at Anderson. The editor of the RETRO in 1936 was Bob Overmyer, today a Lieutenant in the U. S. Army stationed at Camp Iackson. The business manager was Dick Ducy who is living in Hartford City. Darrill Ratliff was editor of the RETRO in 1937, and at the present time is in the air corps at San Ana, California. Walter Hollis that year was chosen business manager. He is now in New York City. The editor of the RETRO in 1938 was Tommy Helm, who is expected to join the air corps soon, and the business manager was Martha Ellen Huff, now a senior at Ball State. In 1939 the RETRO was edited by Betty Monfort, a student at Stephens College at Columbia, Missouri. The busi- ness manager was Iohn Cook, now with the U. S. armed forces in Alaska. Susanna Howerter, now employed at the Citizens State Bank in Hartford City, was editor-in-chief of the 1940 RETRO. The business manager was Donald Guy, a sophomore at Ohio State. The 1941 RETRO had Ruth Russell for its editor. She is now employed at the Overhead Door. The business manager was Iames McCune, now awaiting entrance into Annapolis. So, with pleasure, we present to you the latest chapter in the long and interesting cavalcade of Hartford City High School. -wMolly lane Fulton Editor, 1942 RETRO awww id lda 304 LAVERGNE l.
