More people turned out for this event than could be accommodated and many were turned away. During the year we have seen new accomplishments and recognitions. This has come about through the good leadership, co-operation and hard work ex- hibited in this organization. Our most able conductor, Mr. Ebbs, has worked with the group now for four years and Hobait has prospered by his guidance. It is expected, .and perhaps too often taken for granted by outsiders, that there is unusual personal responsibility in being a member of this musical group. Therefore, we do here wish to congratulate the conductor and each member for the grand job done this year. You have made a famous name for yourselves and we are truly proud of you !

Miss Hackman, our director of vocal music, has been here two years and last year we began to really appreciate the local talent when she sponsored an operetta entitled “An Old Kentucky Garden”. This year our appreciation was increased when we saw the hilarious minstrel “Georgia Jubilee” in which many of our students turned out black faced and dressed in clever costumes of brilliant color. Many times have we also heard the vocal groups at convos and programs.

Belonging to such groups is work but also a lot of fun. Just ask someone who has been in a chorus class and he will tell you. We will not, however, stop after looking back upon what has been done but we, moreover, look ahead to what will come. For if you have talked with the director and heard the hopes and plans shs has for her groups you feel certain there will be more. So to the departments of vocal music — keep up your good work, we’ll be keeping an eye on you for the future. e Vocal £ nsemble and Glee eu “Music hath charm” and especially when it is easy on the eyes as well as the ears. The Girls’ Vocal Ensemble meets regularly several times each week, studies together, and comes up with the amazing results that have been heard at convocations, special programs, and entertainment for local organizations. Novelty numbers and modern renditions of old songs have added variety to many of them. Individual talent in this group is one of the factors which enables them to achieve so much.

Members enjoyed a trip to Chicago in March to see the operetta “Blossom Time.” Recordings of the songs in the operetta were purchased for the music department. Contributions from the treasury were given to the Junior Red Cross and to the school to buy lockers. r 82 { SENIORS 82 — Don Treadway 91 — Bob Schavey 96 — Walter Zander 78 — Don Tracy 83 — Bob Rosenbaum 93 — Jim Marcoff Gordon Macy In The Navy 68 — Charles Bridgeman 92 — Jack Burke 99 — Jim Alexander Don Treadway On offense Don drove hard, lugging the leath- er for gains on almost every trip. Bob Schavey Bob was our hard-charging right guard who caused many a “T” formation quarterback no little anxiety. Walter Zander Walt was another tackle whose defensive abil- ity made him a menace to all opposition. Don Tracy Don played the other guard and was most valu- able on offensive for his blocking ability. Bob Rosenbaum Bob was the quarterback of the 1944 eleven. His passing did much for the squad. Jim Marcoff Jim played the opposite end where his defen- sive ability made him an asset to the team. Cordon Macy Mace,” our left end, could always be counted on when it came to pass-catching. Charles Bridgeman Chuck was a center and was known for his good sportsmanship. Jack Burke Jack played left tackle and was noted for his ability to crack through opposing linemen. James “Tiny” Alexander “Tiny,” our 264-pound right tackle, presented a fearful sight to opposing backfield men. Cjoob ' Teams lYlusi Haoe Cjooc) J Leadels - Eob Green, captain-elect for the 1945 football team, is pictured here in his center stance. Bob filled the posi- tion of center on the 1944 squad where his excellent de- fense work was a menace to all opponents and his accu- rate passing made him a valuable asset to the team. Boo- Boo, as he was nicknamed, played tackle as a freshman and then was shifted to the position of end when he be- came a sophomore. In addition to thwarting many a ground attack Bob also proved capable in stopping an aerial offense, as was shown in the Griffith game where he intercepted and galloped for 62 yards for our only score of the contest. A good season is predicted for the 45 squad under the leadership of their captain. Bob Green. As a wartime measure our basketball coach, Mr. Frank E. Kurth, took a hand at heading the football squad, along with Mr. Donald Pound, building trades instructor, as co-coach. Although the coaches cannot boast of an unusually successful season as to games won and lost, it can truly be said of these men, that they tried their best and really, after all, gained for the boys a big step toward the real goals of physical education which are the development of good sportsmanship and clean living as well as physical development. - an c) Plenty )oca l Packin 5 Although losing, the 1944 Brickie squad had a win- ning spirit which was carried over by our three varsity cheerleaders, Eileen Smythe, Francis Stewart, and Mary Smith. This spirit must have been well conveyed for the attendance at the games started out good and as the season progressed it became better. There was also a group of cheerleaders who boosted the leserve basketball team. There were Gwen Sohn. Shirley Moon, Marilyn Johnson, Betty Greenlee, and Tommy Bishop. This quintet of sophomores did veiy well and are expected to develop into some outstanding varsity yell leaders.

The 1944 season was a comparatively unsuccessful one with the Brickies winning two, los- ing six, and tieing one. , ...... In the initial contest, the Brickies met a powerful Froebel eleven and, although losing, played what was believed to be one of their best frames of the schedule as they held the Blue Devils to only twelve points. The boys probably would have equaled this score, since they were within scoring territory twice, had it not been for injuries sustained in the first half by fullback Carl Fasel and running half Bob Havrilla. In the next encounter, it was LaPorte all the way as the Slicers posted a 27 to G win over the Brickies on the home gridiron. It was not until our third game that the Brickie footballers realized their first v ictory when they beat Lowell on the opponent’s field by a score of 13 to 7. ... , , .. . , . The local eleven then played host to the Griffith Panthers. It was in this game that Brickie fans were afforded one of the biggest thrills of the 1944 season when center Bob Green intercepted a Griffith pass and galloped 65 yards under excellent blocking for the only Hobart score. The Griffith eleven, however, were fighting hard and managed to punch their way to the 20-yard line where they scored around Hobart’s left end. As both teams failed to convert, the game ended in a 6-6 dead- lock. The Ho-Hi gridsters then traveled to Crown Point where they took a 2-0 decision from the Bulldogs by a safety gained by left tackle Jack Burke. It was in this game that the Kurthmen lost the valuable services of their right end, Jim Marcoff, because of injuries. After Crown Point came Valpo. with a backfield which proved too much for the boys as the Vikings held the Brickies scoreless while they came through with 13 points. On the following Wed- nesday the Brickies encountered Joe Stevens from Tolleston under the local floocs. The Raiders got a 1)4-0 win over the Brickies all of which were made by “Joltin’ Joe.’ The Hammond Catholic Central Warriors were next, their tricky “T formation causing the downfall of the Brickie gridsters as the Centralites marched to a 30-6 victory over the injury-hamp- ered Hobart eleven. Again the Purple and Gold met the Vikings of Valparaiso, this time on the opponent’s field where the prevailing rains made a sea of mud of the football field. The mud proved to be no handicap to the Green and White who crossed into pay dirt twice while the local eleven ■could manage only one tally. Both teams made their conversions good and the battle ended 14 to 7 in favor of the opponents.

The first game of the 1944-45 season found the Brickie basketsers taking the Wildcats of Wheeler by a score of 37-27. The second game proved to be quite a bit tougher as the local five bowed to a strong Tolleston team in Memorial Auditorium at Gary. It was on this same floor, just one week later, that the Hobart hardwoodess administered their most outstanding upset of the season to the Norsemen of Emerson High, Ga. y sectional champs, to the tune of a 31-29 victory. After losing to Lowell and East Gary, the Brickies went on to post their highest score of the sea- son over Hammond Catholic Central. Another victory followed, this time at the expense of the Gary Edison Blazers. The Ho-Hi quintet then traveled to Crown Point for the holiday tournament in which they beat E. C. Roosevelt in the preliminary, but were beaten in the final by the Bulldogs of Crown Point. But the Brickies were not to be outdone as they came back from Christmas vacation to down the Crown Point five in a one-sided battle by a score of 36-22. The Lowell Red Devils then pushed the Brickies into a back seat with their speed and shooting ability which again proved too much for them. The local five were then host to the Griffith Panthers in one of the most thrilling games ever witnessed in the Roosevelt Gym. It was in this game that the boys could truly be called the “fighting” Brickies as they came from behind to beat the Griffith five by only two points. The game could easily have gone into an overtime if it hadn’t been for wide awake officials who dis- qualified a last minute Griffith basket because time was up although the gun had not gone off. Next the boys traveled to Hammond where Central handed the Brickies a startling upset since it was this same five who had furnished the Ho-Hi hardwooders with their most impressive victory earlier in the season. The Hobartites then met the Portage Indians, toppling over them by a score of 36 to 24. Next came Chesterton which was undoubtedly the roughest game cf the schedule, but the Brickies proved that they could not only take a little rough stuff, but also dish it out as they emerged victorious by an 11 point victory margin. The boys then got their third straight win, furnished by the Troopers of Wirt. After winning three the Brickies took a trip to the Eagles’ nest where a tall and veteran East Gary five took the Kurthmen for the second time during the season. The Griffith Panthers afforded the Brickies with their eleventh win of the sea- son, at Griffith by a score of 34 to 30. In our next to the last battle it was Valpo all the way as the Vikings put the skids under a hot Brickie five, winning 33 to 37. Our last fray, with Crown Point, was a repetition of the mid-season victory furnished them by the Bulldogs. It was then sectional time. The Brickies drew the weak Dysr team for the first game. The local quintet breezed through this initial contest in fine style but the old sectional jinx caught up with them as an inspired East Gary Edison team beat the Brickies for the third time in a year. However, considering everything, it was a very successful season and here’s wishing the 1945-46 squad equal or better success.
