This may or may not be a significant fact for the school authorities, but it is significant to you. This decrease in the num- ber of graduates since last year would seem to indicate that the pull of industry for some has been stronger than the desire to complete high school. As a result of the speed-up in the steel industries which so powerful- ly affect our well-being the outlook for you of the class of 1941 is much brighter. The faculty would like to believe that it has done a better job in preparing you for a place in our social order than it did the clsss before yours. Certainly progress has been made in our school pro- gram, our counselling, our offerings, our instructional procedure. You are the fin- al judges on that question and we should like for you to tell us after you have been out of school for a year or two just how good a job we did for you and your classmates . The institution which you know as the high school is a very new institution. It has sprung up almost too late for the par- ents of most of you to have had the oppor- tunity which they have given you to comp- lete four years of study beyond ■the eighth grade. In the past decade the high school of our country has changed very greatly. More changes are to come. What direction those changes will take will depend very much upon the demands of the people who have graduated from high school in these past few years. How much schooling must be offered in the secondary schools, four years, or five, or six? What courses shall be discarded and what added? Shall Latin and algebra be thrown out? Shall there be more trade training and less his- tory? How much of the tax money shall be expended on schooling? These are ques- tions which you, my dear class of 1941, must help to answer. This gangling, rap- idly growing infant of the educational system which we call the high school has made many foolish blunders , no doubt, but it has also done many things right. As you look back upon your four years spent at Hobart High School, you will re- call most vividly your extremely pleasant and your extremely unpleasant experiences. We hope the former have out weighed and out numbered the latter. But pleasant or unpleasant we hope those experiences have contributed to the moulding of your char- acter. If you take from here a mastery of the tools of learning, you can contime your own education. If you have become a right thinking, industrious person inter- ested in the welfare of your community and its citizens; if you have a passionate de- votion to those liberties and privileges our beloved country guarantees, then Hob- art High School has done its job well in- deed . The faculty joins me in wishing you, the class of 1941, every success and every happiness. We wish not to say farewell at all for we expect to see you many times a- gain. We want to keep in touch with you and you with us. You are always welcome .t H 0 b.rt High. J£ At ORcS History has decreed that about once in a gen- eration youth be required to bear the brunt of the sacrifice and misery that accompanies a war or soc- ial upheaval. This seems to be your heritage, for even as this is written our country see s inexor- ably drifting into the world conflict. It is a struggle to decide whether men shall be governed by one man or at best by a small circle of tyrants, or by free men reserv- ing for themselves the blessings of liber- ty and self-determination. It is a ques- tion of whether we shall think for our- selves on the basis of facts as we find them, or think as we are told because we are denied access to the facts. It is contended by the enemies of democracy that our form of government is too slow, too cumbersome to make the prompt decisions required of modern com- plex civilization that only those nat- ions having absolute unity of purpose and action can survive. But no single pro- gressive act has been accomplished by the di ctators that could not have been done in a democracy, but without the ever-present cruelty and hatred. If democracy has failed it Is be- cause we as citizens have failed to make it work. History has demonstrated that men who govern themselves successfully are able to do so because of a high degree of intelligence, education and civic con- sciousness spread through the mass of the people. (continued on page ) Do you as tyro citizens in this re- public have what it takes to make true participants in a democracy? Are you willing to undergo sacrifices of social position, economic gain and personal pleasure in order to hold the ramparts of freedom against the forces of tyranny? If so, and I have every faith that you are, then we have no fear for the future. Our fate is in your hands. THANK You—frotott c rs Ytoftf Superintendent Garver...for your im- provements in Ho-Hi.

But, when we reach the Sophomores ' height, Things soon assume a truer light, And not so strange appear; From God to man, from man to friend, The Superintendent doth unbend, Lost is our former fear. We now, by turned-up trousers, show Class colors in our socks below, And dress in style most queer. Faculty Advisor Juanita Horne ods ro HobAnr H QH Farewell to you, old Hobart High You ' ll hear the Seniors say, With tearful eyes, they wave goodbye To the school they ' ll leave in May. We ' ll never forget the day we came To Hobart as Freshman green We couldn ' t stand the darn old place; Everyone treated us so mean! And then came the Sophomore year, And things were better then We saw the situation a little more clear But for graduation we still had a yen. In the Junior year we were afraid Of the Senior year before, And wondered if we ' d make the grade Or be Juniors for evermore! And now that we are those Seniors With graduation looming near, We are desperately trying to get all we can, Out of this, the shortest year. Next year we ' ll all be bygones To the school of Hobart High And we just wonder how it will feel To be recognized as Alumni! As juniors next we thrill, perchance, To throes of puppy-love romance With some young damsel fair, Who in a high and shining dome, Which reaches nigh the angels ' home, Doth pile her boughten hair. Or, with some rural burg, in bout Contend, to try who best can spout Forensic figures there. At last we gain the final goal, And think, as Seniors, we control The school from roof to ground; Though many haunt the office door, How can I get one credit more? Is heard from all around. And, then, when comes Commencement Night, We read an essay, erudite, And filled with thoughts profound. Freshman, Seniors, Faculty, Or whatever else are we, — Each has his eccentricity, But thinks all others worse than he. Mow if above mayhap there be Your own pecularity, Take not amiss the liberty, But laugh yourself, yourself to see! --Raymond A. Anderson High school days Have their delights But they can ' t compare We should be happy, everyone says, With a diploma in our hand-, But in our hearts a sadness reigns, That from Hobart we must

For those who are going to college the problem of finding employment will be put off for some ti e , but eventually, just like those who will face the problem of finding a job as soon as graduation is over, they will have to find their place in life. That place should be one where you are best fitted — the place where you can benefit the welfare of society as a whole. It is true each of you will not find the job you enjoy the most, but no matter what field of life you explore, try to do your best. Work should be honorable and well done. After graduation, education shouldn ' t end. Continue your studying as it will help make you a success. Whether you work with your hands or not, always keep this in mind: Manual training is essential to brain training and brain training depends on manual training. looking backward you can see many mistakes and wish that they had never been made, but it is too late to look back. Keep your eyes on the future l Your ' training in school will have a great effect on the life which you lead later. If you were courteous, friendly, prompt, dependable, ambitious and trust- worthy, you w ' ill easily adjust yourself society. Then graduation is over, go out onto the highway of life and make something of yourself. Climb the ladder of life and don ' t be content until the ton step of success is reached. THB ROAD AHEA£ Upon taking our leave of Hobart Higtv we seniors pause for a moment. Just long enough for a few mental ramblings — some memories, some forethought. We have come to a parting of the ways — what shall our course be? Behind us is a smooth highway, which in regard to the one before us, was com- paratively easy. Our former care and the attention we showed to training will be a telling factor in this new life. The road in front of us is full of bumps, holes and detours. The going will be tough and perhaps our endurance will be insufficient to warrant continuing. The road side and even the ditch will be dot- ted with many who couldn ' t make the grades some of then will urge us to join them. If we keep our eyes to the front and, heedless of the difficulties, march for- ward, our efforts will be rewarded. For on this road, which is like a muddy, country lane, there is much happiness, too, that can be likened unto a bright spring day with the birds singing and the sun shining. At the end of the journey no one knows what is waiting for us — we only know that it is s reward worth winning and a resting place. While we are on this road let us play the role of 3ood Samaritan showing happiness, good will, truth and honesty and creating a good influence for others to follow. If we do this and work in cooperation with those around us the way cannot prove too difficult. FRESHMEN We entered high school with the hurry and flurry that only freshmen can make. After many thrilling experiences, we found ourselves distributed all over the building A few weeks after entering we had our first class meeting which, indeed, was a howling success. Kenneth Rieck was elected President; Chuck Greenspan, Vice-President; Paul Zander, Secretary; and Jacqueline Quinn, Treasurer. We decided to be true freshmen and so, chose as our class colors, green and white . On the evening of March 17, 1938, we had our first class party, a St. Patrick Day Party. Some of our talented classmates present ed a one-act play; others were contest- ants in an amateur show. Everyone enjoyed this first and last party of our first year in Hobart High. This year ended, leaving us happy sophomores. CT OP HO MORE S Here beginneth the trials and tribulations of our sophomore year! We met for our election of officers and returns were as follows: President, Marlynn Fleck; Vice- President, Victoria Pflughoeft; Secretary, Anna Michich; and Treasurer, Myrtle Eens- chel. With this capable quartet as our leaders we started upon another year. On October 13, we had a roller-skating party at Hammond. Aside from the many collisions and tumbles, this party was a great success. At our next meeting, we nominated Marlynn Fleck to go to Indianapolis on an edu- cational trip through the Legislature and Senate. The trip proved worthwhile and interesting. And thus ends another year. iVUM OPE How jolly juniors and upper classmen. We chose as class officers for the year: President, John Routes; Vice-President, Jane Ferguson; Secretary, Betty Jane Greene; and Treasurer, Marian Ledyard. Our matinee dances, with music by Kaleck ' s band, proved to be a big success and just loads of fun The first order of class rings arrived just in time for Christmas Orange sales made a nice profit to pay for our big affair: The 1940 Prom On the evening of May 3, upon arriving at Marquette Park Pavillion, we checked our wraps and with our knees knocking to the tune, Hawaii Calls, went upstairs into the ballroom. Then we engaged ourselves in filling out our dance programs for the evening. Swaying palm trees, Hawaiian huts and leis formed the lulling scene in which we glided to the strains of Babe Roth ' s orchestra. A lovely evening of waltzes, rhumbas and polkas was concluded with the playing of the tune Aloha. The Picnic A grand and glorious time was had by all at the picnic held at Marquette Fark. Baseball games were the big events of this evening. In both the girls ' and boys ' games, we juniors politely bowed to our superiors. A few of the braver went swimming or wading, but most of us were content to walk along the beach. After romping around the woods, come and get it, was music to our earsT Thanks goes to the seniors of ' 40 for another swell time. sfh or cm r vp m R September Monday, ninth — School begins. Supt.

The theme of the prom was completely carried out in a Colonial manner. The soft sweet music of Ted Nerlng ' s Orchestra, the cozy corner furnished with a fireplace and spinning wheel and the buffet style luncheon helped to carry over this spell of the romantic period. Favors portraying tiny colonial figures were distributed at the conclusion of the grand march, which was lead by the class presidents, Ben Pavlakovic, of the senior class, and Rita Hughes, of the junior class, and their guests. SENIORS ' FAREWELI To many happy days and times of good cheer. To past moments of trial, and sadness and fear. To teachers and to books so worn, yet so dear. To marred desks and lessons, we say goodbye here. Our parting is happy although touched with tears As bravely and gravely we leave those gay years. We ' re facing the future, our hearts are aglow. Excelsior ' s our motto as onward we go. So fare thee well Hobart, Alma Mater o ' mine, We ' re leaving your sunny schoolrooms behind. We ' ll take on life ' s burdens and won ' t be afraid, We ' ll practice the lessons we learned with your aid. By Wilma Morgan Choosing an appropriate name for the senior edition is always a problem. The Senior Class of 1941 has named this year ' s number the S E ' 41 (Senior Edition 1941). We are hoping that future graduating classes will continue this title, thus estab- lishing a permanent name for the edition. — The Staff S£MOft WILL On this twenty-eighth day of May in the year of our Lord, 1941, we do hereby will and bequeath- Lucille Altman to Lucy Eckenrode my quiet reserved manner.

THROUGH 7WJE Y£RHS, A record of friendship and commrade- ship can be chalked up for the following folks, who have progressed together for twelve years in the Hobart School system. Marilynn Baumer Alfred Born Delos Brooks Betty Cuson James Dudgeon Jane Ferguson Clara Mae Fifield Evelyn Gant Edward Garber Emma Jean Glynn Richard Harrigan Bennie Hasza Myrtle Henschel Norman Johnson Ruth Jolliff Robert Keller Charles King Marian Krull Paul James Larson Minerva Lazar Nick Lazar Helen Lute Harold Maple Virginia Marvel Anne Mihich Clara Mundell Richard Packh ' am Ben Pavlakovic Esther Ramsay Jarvis Roper Robert Schwuchow James Shaw Robert Sohn Janet Stangebye Alice Vincent Robert Wilson Zander And when ol ' Hobart High School falls in line, We ' re gonna win that game another time. And for that dear old school we love so well. And for that old ball team we ' ll yell and yell and yelll We ' re gonna Fight, Fight, Fight for every score. We ' re gonna win that game and then some more. We ' re gonna roll old on the side, on the side. Roll! Roll ' . Roll! The Ho-Hi teams have always shown fighting spirit and good sportsmanship. These boys have displayed this in every way and we know if they continue to show such fine spirit, success will be theirs. The best of luck to all of you! Delos Brooks Booker ' s main ability in sports was track, for he had amazing speed. He won two majors in track, one each in foot- ball and in wrestling. His will to win and fighting spirit were quite evident in every sport in which he participated. Robert Wilson For a short fellow. Bob really had a lot of power. He played fullback on last years football team, receiving a major. Goggie showed his ability to play by picking up the extra yards needed for a first down. Richard Packham Dick proved that one doesn ' t have to be big to play football and play it well. He is small in stature, but made up for lack of weight and height with his aggress- ive play. Gunner received a minor in basketball and a major in football. He is going to be missed in next year ' s football line . Ben Pavlakovic Benny received major letters in both football and basketball. He was out- standing in team leadership and Ho-Hi is going to miss his stellar playing. Lyall Lamb Flash was like a streak running the 100 yard dash and in playing football he could really skirt around the ends. He was presented with a major in both track and football. Lyall is a rather quiet person who can ' t be bothered with women. James Larson Jimmy was on the football team for three years, during which time he received his numerals and a minor letter. He part- icipated in the Junior-Senior football game in the position of left end. Jim ' s a peppy, happy-go-lucky sort of a person. Eldon Kaicke Mike took his place in the great game of ' 40 as right tackle. Just look- ing at the impassable appearance of him most likely frightened the juniors. Eldon has been a real Brickie Booster. J ohn Laurie Johnnie earned a major letter on the varsity in his junior year although he is small. In the senior football game John proved he could still play by stop- ping repeated center plunges through the seniors ' line. John Ronska John is a swell pal with a fighting spirit and the will to play his best in any game he entered. Without very much experience he proved to be an outstanding player in the senior game. Robe rt Keller During Killer ' s freshman and soph- omore years he received numerals and a minor letter. He played tackle in the last game of the class of ' 41. Bob ' s many friends like him because of the gen- uine sincerity of his manner. Charles Beckner Good natured, easy-going Chuck is formidable in size, but very friendly in manner. He played on the second team in football during his ninth and tenth grades. In the senior football game. Chuck took the positions of tackle and center. John Sapper Johnny was a participant in bas- ketball for only one year, receiving a minor letter. During the final foot- ball game he helped the seniors with his optimistic outlook and loyal support. Ray Dommer Buzz was an outstanding athlete during his four years in high school. He received three majors in basketball, two in football and three in track. Ray ' s faithful leadership will be missed next year. i fi-M FOOTBALL fftftr THE game of Hobart ' s unopened football season was played on the Hobart field on October 18. Odds were one-hundred to one that Hobart would win this scrimmage. The cheering crowd and ideal fall weather added to the Brickies ' zest for victory. Captain Rose of the Varsity won the toss and chose to receive with Dommer, cap- tain of the Seniors, defending the east goal. Wilson, Senior powerhorse, kicked off. Rose received it on the 25 yard line and brought it up to the 30 yard stripe where he was pushed out of bounds. First down and ten to go for the Varsity. From a T form- ation they shifted to the left with Rose back; the run to the left was broken by Brooks and Laurie after a 3 yard gain. On the 4th down. Rose finally got away for 30 yards before Lyall Lamb nailed him from behind. First down and ten to go for the Varsity. After a shift to the right, Howell tried an off tackle play but accidently ran into Pavlakovic, Senior center. During the next two and a half quarters neither team could score, though the Varsity threatened the Senior goal several times. The Senior defense stiffened and staved off the threats. In the third quarter came the break that was needed by either team to win. Rose took the ball on a left end run and was finally forced out of bounds on the Senior 28 yard line. Unfortunately for the Seniors, the referee called piling and a fifteen yard penalty resulted, leaving the ball on the 12 yard line. Rose took the pigskin on a right end run and went over with half the Senior team on him. The try for the extra noint was unsuccessful just as the final gun sounded. It is the hope of the Seniors that they helped add to the confidence of next years ' varsity. Good luck, TEAM l C i££RLEADEKS ft HD MANAGES Marlynn Fleck Flecker has been an active member of the G.A.A. during the years of its existance in Eo-Hi. Whether leading the whole student body in a yell of just among a small group she is always full of pep. Marlynn held her position as yell leader in 1940-41. Victoria Pflughoeft Happy-go-lucky Vicky was one of our five cheer leaders in 1940-41. Jackie Quinn Although Jackie was but a sophomore when she held her position as yell leader she showed great enthusiasm and pep in her yells. Jean Walker This tiny cannonball led yells during her senior year. Blondie has a habit of blushing which bothers her no end, hut nevertheless is quite becoming. Alfred Born Quiet, congenial A1 received two minor letters for his efficient track and basketball management. He served in this capacity in 1939-40. Edward Garber Ed has always shown much enthusiasm for sports, but it wasn ' t until his senior year that be held an important position in school athletics. He received a minor letter as track manager during the season of 1940-41. Norman Johnson Good natured Norm holds both a major and minor letter as basketball manager in the year 1940-41.
