Mr. White- man formerly served as principal and teacher in Hoagland High School, and while here did much to plan, set the standards and build our school of today.

You, as an record for your It has been your privilege to attend Hoagland High School Where you could work and plan. Your future careful planning and hard work done today. You must assume the re- Only immature people expect others to care for them. Your assumption of responsibility is basic to all other planning. Most students realize that good things just don't happen but are the result of careful planning. It is your re- sponsibility to plan your life by using all of your ex- periences. Your school, your home, your church and your general environment are all influences which work upon you. What you are and what you become must be achieved through your own eiorts. Hoagland High School has much to offer in contributing to your success if you will use it in an intelligent Way. Kelro Whiteman Most communities have a degree of pride in their school. We are justly proud of ours. We have develop- ed educationally because each has had a will to do his part. I believe our school will continue to support a program of better education for our boys and girls so that they can go on and live happy, successful and use- ful lives. This will mean an expanding of our program in - educational circles. To this end I pledge to all, my best efforts and extend my highest personal regards. Wish- N ing you the best of success in life I am yours for a bet- ter future for Madison Township School Community Clarence Bobilya, trustee Pi Page 6 Hoagland is proud of her achievements, but we are not satisfied. We ask for a torch of light that we can seek new truths in the realm of the unknown. Why should any man pine like Alexander the Great, that there are no more worlds to conquer, when God has made the hidden truths of nature infinite. No man can reach the zenith of possible achievements in knowledge. Seek and you shall find. Knock and it shall be open- ed unto youf' Today the world seeks freedom. Only the knowledge of truth shall give that freedom. May we seek and find those truths that our joys may be everlasting. Horace G. Bosler HORACE G.

SENIOR CLASS OF 1947 CSEALJ Signed and Sealed in the presence of irresponsible Witnesses. CLASS HISTORY The Class of 1947, broadcasting from Station W. H. H. S. May 14 at 8 P. M., wish to present a brief history of the personell of their cast. ' Included in the 33 members are 3 who have been faithful to the organization since its beginning in September, 1935. They include Lora Dc Koninck, Eileen Youse, and Donna Jean Ratlitf. Others who joined the ranks at an early date are Kenyon Andrews, Frank Guenin, Janice Miller, Marjorie Busick, and Don Ruhl. The Hrst real studio appearance was in the fall of 1943, when in the greenness of the perennial freshmen we stormed the heights 45 strong. The tempo was set by Don Hoffman, Eileen Doctor, Pat Mahlan, and Lavon Grotrian under the direction of Miss Edith Germann, our sponsor. This saw us getting a real 'initiation into the activities and membership of the station which we shall never forget. Our second broadcast was organized in the fall of 1944 under the sponsorship of Germann and Ulrey. Our officers were Eileen Doctor, Dick Bohnke, Vernon Scheumann and Neil Gable. The usual Soap Opera was presented with a party at the home of Philip Bohnstead and one in the studio. 1945 saw us again On the Air with Mrs. Glennie Wright as our sponsor and Kenyon Andrews, Lavon Grotrian, Don Ruhl, and David Kiracofe as studio dir- ectors. We celebrated with parties at the home of Angela Sheehan, and of Don Ruhl. The studio audience was well pleased with our presentation of Star Crazy directed by Helen Ulrey. We cooperated with the Hoosier Hop in a feature broad- cast in the school auditorium. The boys of the cast won the station basketball tourney over the beginning and senior members of the staff. On April 13th we joined the Seniors of 1946 in an Off the air party at the Chamber of Commerce, Fort Wayne, where food and fun were the order of the evening. September 2, 1946, brought us again to the W. H. H. S. studio after a long summer vacation. Stars have come and gone, but the cast includes the names of 33 illustrous Seniors. We chose our studio directors, Dick Bohnke, Pres.g Vernon Scheumann, Vice-Pres., Pat Mahlan, Sec., Theresa Ottenweller, Treasurerg Angela Sheehan, News Reporter, Dennis Klenrichert, Editor of Hoagland Hurricaneg Ray- mond Sorg, Editor of Ships' Log, and Miss Bonnie L. Thomas, sponsor. The cast presented Everybody Works But Father with Miss Jewell Ginn Directing. We published The Ships Log our studio year book. Pat Mahlan was chosen to re- present us in the Good Citizenship Pilgrimage. Frank Guenin, Melvin Kaiser, Kenyon Andrews, and Gene Springer stared on the basketball team that took the county by storm, while Don Ruhl, Dick Bohnke, and Vernon Scheumann ably led our cheering section. We are happy to have participated in many school activities and hope none will need be ashamed of our record. Eileen Youse Janice Miller Lora De Koninck Page 17 Page 18 g SENIOR PROPHECY It was in the year of 1957, as we were gliding happily along in our self-con- trolled Rocket Ship, we decided to visit the class of 47 to see what life had given them. We stopped first at Hoagland's giant live and ten cent store, where we saw Vernon CFritzJ Scheumann demonstrating, The Magic of Liquid Bubbles. As we walked down Main Street we spotted a Peanut Stand which specialized in striped peanuts, it was operated by Arnold CPeanutJ Hegerfeld. We visited the gymnasium where Frank Guenin was in charge as player-coach to the Madison Pistons. At the H-I-G-H broadcasting station, we found Don Ruhl singing the latest song hit, Lifeboy Blues, it seems he was quite a success. We visited the Ker-Flop Ice Show, where Eileen Youse was starring as the center attraction. In case of ker-fiops, knockouts, carry-outs, etc., she had her special nurse Donna Jean Ratliif to adminster first aid. We stopped at the Sunny-Kilawatt Factory where David CCorkyJ Kiracofe was manufacturing the latest styles in light bulbs. He had always been rather bright. Kilroy is no where , this it seems was the new movie in which Angela Shee- han was starring in. She was playing opposite Red Skelton. As we traveled on we saw Wayne Halfeldy, operating a bus line between Ossian and Hoagland. It seems he couldn't make up his mind which place he wanted to settle down in. Passing Radio City, We saw Eileen Krauss playing her violin to hundreds of fans who were interested in her new radio program, The Krauss Hour of Chores. Our next stop was the modest home of Don CPudJ Hoffman who was a famed mystery writer. It seems he enacted all his crimes with his pretty secretary Mar- gie Busick. Next we stopped at a carnival, where we saw a fortune telling tent. Pat Mahland and Kenyon CSonnyD Andrews were having the time of their lives work- ing out each others problems. We stopped next at Madam Helena's Beauty shop. Here we saw Helen Floyd fixing Robert Thompsonfs hair in the latest style. Our next stop was the humble office of two middle-aged spinsters Eileen Doc- tor and Annabelle Brames. They had taken up baby-sitting as a profession, with the help of Melvin CLumJ Kaiser they had been quite successful. As we passed over a secluded little spot in the country, we wcre surprised to find Lavon Grotrian painting an old rocking chair. It seems she had decided to become an old maid after all. - Our next stop was the luxurious office of Alma Williams, who had invented a Shorthand Gadget, which resembled the typewriter. Stop, Look, Listen, a firetruck was clanging down the street, with Norbert Hor- man at the helm. It seems he had always loved flames. At Indiana University we visited Raymond Sorg, an intelligent professor of ATOMICOLOGY. It seems he had taken a liking to blowing up. We visited the Three B'.s ranch owned by Richard Bohnke, who seemed to be Riding High, as the result of a rich inheritance he had received from an ap- preciative School Teacher. Continuing our trip we passed the Lucky Strike Tobacco Company, where Wal- ter Smith was auctioning their finest tobacco. Our next stop was the wrestling match where Ray Emerick, the Killer-Diller was meeting Gene Springer the muscle-murder. We hurried on as we were afraid of the outcome. We stopped next at a swank New York shop where designer Selma Neff was Htting the latest plastic gown on Lora De Koninck, a graceful model. We stopped at a New York night club while we were in the city. In the spot- light was Edgar Koenemann and his orchestra with the incomparable pianist Janice Miller. As we headed back toward home, we stopped at Bells Skating Rink, where Theresa Ottenweller was head instructor of the Forced Landing Club. Our last stop was dear old Hoagland High. Here We found Denis Kleinrichert, the principal, running the school in a typical Boss-ler Fashion. .IUNIORS CLASS OFFICERS Richard Scherer Henry Renninger Thurman Hockemeyer Howard Molthan William Bohnke - Bill Delores Bultemeier - Shorty Virginia Cagnet - Ginny Mareile Conrad - Cile Paul Counterman - Sammy f Gene Floyd - Floyd Neil Gable - Fat Margie Grotrian - Marg.

Early in the fall of 1946 the Senior Class decided to publish an annual. After much cussing and discussion we called Mr. Montague of Ft. Wayne Engraving Co. and got under way. We decided to make it a broadcast from W. H. H. S. and to that end we selected a staff to go ahead with the business. We understand now that publishing an annual is more of a job than we had expected. We wish to express many thanks to the printer, those who advertised, under classmen, the en- graver, and Mr. Montague and all who helped in making this one of the best an- nuals to ever come from Hoagland. THE HOAGLAND HURRICANE Every six weeks the seniors of Hoagland School, capably advised by Miss Ginn and Miss Washler, publish the school paper, The Hoagland Hurricane. The staff is composed of senior staff members and reporters, and a reporter from each class, including the grades. The Assistant Editor, Howard Molthan, a junior, will become the Editor next year. After the news is received, the Editor, Denis Kleinrichert, arranges the copy after which it is typed by the advanced typing class. After being proofread, it is printed on a mimeograph machine and stapled. Each teacher and the oldest mem- ber of each family in school receives a copy of the paper. It is also sent to many neighboring high schools in exchange for their school paper. The juniors publish the second last issue to get them acquainted with the routine. We have enjoyed putting out the Hurricane and trust the students have en- joyed it too. Our hope for the future is a bigger and better Hoagland Hurricane. Dennis H Kleinrichert Page 27 Page 28 The Hoagland band has made considerable progress since last year. During vacation we had practice every Monday night until the 22nd of July when We fin- ished by having a party at the home of Janice and Norma Miller. When school started we organized with 25 members and elected Don Ruhl presidentg Bob Aspy vice-presidentg Dorothy Maland secretary-treasurer and , Eileen Krauss news-reporter. party at Dorothy Mailand's home and started the year out with a bang. We had a Under the direction of Miss Washler, the band played for the home basket-ball games, and we supported the team through all the sessions of the county tournament. The businessmen of Hoag- land gave a community celebration for our team and the band played during the meal. One of the main highlights of this year's work was the annual County Band Festival held at New Haven April 26 in which all of the county school bands par- ticipated. The forenoon was spent re- hearsing the clinic band which consisted of several players from each of the schools and was conducted by an out- standing visiting musician. For the after- noon program each of the county bands Dr:-sented a group of two or three num- bers and the evening program was a con- cert given by the clinic band. Several people are preparing to join our organization. George Rothgeb, Rus- sell Rothgeb, Dean Scholl, and Ervin Richman play instruments and Regina Dornsief, Mary Lehman, and Lucille Rat- liff are training to be baton twirlers. 3 SENIOR QUARTETTE Under the direction of Miss Sylvia Washler, Don Ruhl, Pat Mahlan, Ray Sorg, and Eileen Youse have been practicing some four part harmony.

As we think of the years vve've spent in school, All those which have gone before, We look into the future And wonder what's in store. For some the future may seem bright, For others it may seem a mystery. But those who have the ability May leave their names in history. We've had our friendsg We've had our fun. We've enjoyed being together. Both in classes and outside And in all sorts of weather. We hope to carry on from here Each to his destination.
