Horace oHYLanual 1930 Foreword For this our second Manual O Lake, thou art a worthy theme: We hail thy every-changing mood And thy majesty supreme. Whenever thou art frolicsome Happy children seek thy shores: By thy calm alluring water Weary men forget their chores. Hail to thee in angry mood When we learn humility; Serene and fair, or turbulent You bring to us prosperity.

Features Earth has not anything to show, more fair — WORDSWORTH We, the Senior Class of 1930, dedicate this volume of the Horace Manual to you, Mrs. Pickard, in appreciation of the loyal help and sympathy which you have so tirelessly given us in making this book possible. Page Seven In thine halls the lamp of learning .—SHELLY Page Eight When the lessons and tasks are all ended .—DICKENSON Page Nine Light is the task when many share the toil. —Homer Page Ten How calm, how beautiful comes on The stilly hour, when storms are gone !— MOORE Page Eleven Work-Study-Play System The Gary ch ild spends more days a year, and more hours a day in school than any other child in the United States. The Work-Study-Play system gives a child a free hour ’ or a special” between each academic, which tends to lighten the study work and also gives him more enjoyment. A “free hour” means an hour which is spent during lunch or in the gym¬ nasium. In the gymnasia of Gary are to be found from one to three instructors who are graduates of physical educational schools and colleges. Here deformed children are given certain exercises vyjawfagsend. to do away with the deformity: correct posture is taught, and excises are given to strengthen and develop the body physically along with tfee mental training in the class room. Competi¬ tive athletics are sponsored where all are encouraged to participate. Gary is very well known because of its good athletic teams ihich have taken National Championships in some sports. This is especially trim of its track and basket¬ ball teams and there is no doubt that they would do the same in football if a national championship game were played in this sport. A full hour for lunch is; given to each child which allows him time to digest his meal properly. Many -of the schools maintain self-supporting cafeterias where the girls, taking home economics, cook and prepare the food under the directions of a home economics teacher. Study halls and libraries are also provided where the pupil may study or do any reference work that is necessary. The libraries are maintained by the community public library system and a trained librarian is in charge, who helps the pupil with his reading and reference work. The chance is also given to. each child to do some manual labor in the ma¬ chine shops, foundries, mechanical drawing rooms, print shops, and in many other kinds of shops in which the different pupils are interested. This plan has the advantage of giving a child an insight into certain industries and in many cases helps materially in helping him decide his life work. The Auditoriums are used much the same as class rooms in that each hour a definite group is assembled where music is taught and a program of some sort is put on by the pupils, representing different types of class room work. Special teachers are provided to train and instruct the pupils for these programs. The classes begin at 8:15 in the morning and continue until 4:15 in the afternoon. The typical student program is: a lunch hour, an hour in the gym nasium. a study-hour, and five hours of class-room and laboratory work. In other communities only six hours are spent in school which gives the child more time for the streets, and usually results in wrong habit formation. Saturday School is also offered to the student to make up work, become more efficient in academic subjects, or spend time in the vocational departments. It is not compulsory, but has always been well attended. Length of the school year is ten months with very few vacations. During the summer the schools are open for eight weeks starting the Monday after the regular school ends. In these eight weeks conditions may be made up, advanced work may be taken, or the playgrounds may be used. About 75 per cent of the regular school enrollment is present during the summer. The playgrounds are open all the year round and during the summer they are open until 9 o’clock P. M. which gives the children of the neighborhood some place for recreation other than the streets. —Gerald Johnson. Page Twelve Storarr iflamial JUN EC.8RVNGELSW U. OF MINNESOTA 8. S.

Francis Lally Track 28. 1930 Page Forty-nir — Siararr iflamtall Senior Class History In September, 1918, a group of children entered Horace Mann School, then housed in a portable and directed by Miss Pearcy. Principal. From this humble beginning Horace Mann has grown to a mighty institution. At that time Ronald Bush, Paula Lilly, Mildred Vensel and Mitchell Radanovich enrolled in the first grade. They are the only students graduating from Horace Mann this year who have never attended some other school. Of all the persons who have come to Horace Mann. Minnie Bell has traveled farthest to join our worthy class. She was born in Sidney, Nova Scotia, coming to Gary in her childhood. In September, 1927, the building now known as Horace Mann School was opened for classes. Only the first floor was available and that was very incom¬ plete. Pupils learned their lessons to the tune of cranes and cement crushers. In February the second floor was added and by September, 1928, the whole build¬ ing was in use. The class of 1930 is truly a pioneer group, when one stops to consider the many trials it has undergone for the sake of an education. From the beginning of their high school career, the Seniors have shown marked ability in all their undertakings. Their initial event was ‘ Red Rover” the Freshman play, which calls to mind Bernice Mears and her great success. Added to that achievement were the annual class plays which have always been well given and received. While the class has produced many brilliant scholars, it has not been a laggard in athletics. In this Junior year the basketball team honored their school and their city by reaching the state tournament at Indianapolis. The boys on that team who are graduating this year are: Sam Massitti, Joe Hartill, Mike Sereda, Paul Cavanaugh, James Johnson, Joe Altenhof, Pete Kos. and their manager, Edmund Queen. During the Senior year, the football team won the State Championship due for the most part to the following: Frank Kurth, Paul Cavanaugh. Edmund Queen. Mahlon Leach. Harold Johnson. Lud Yards. Ronald Bush, William Klug. Spiro Turpa. James Johnson. Pete Kos. and Sam Massitti. This Senior Class is now prepared to face the vicissitudes of life after four years of intensive training. In our Freshman year we innocents were taught how to respect the upper classmen and various other things that each “Freshie must know before attaining the high rank of a Sophomore. Due to our excel¬ lent behavior and humilit y, we were honored by an advancement to the Soph¬ omore stage. In this office, we were entrusted with the grave responsibility of guiding our erring successors. However, we had not yet attained all that could be desired so the Juniors continued to guard and shield us from serious blunders. In due time, we became Juniors with all the rights and privileges bestowed upon such persons. Inferior only to the Seniors, we held full sway over the younger classmen, granting rare honors and tasks to those admirers. The Seniors still had to direct us to a certain extent as we had not completed our apprenticeship. In September, 1929, the Senior Class of Horace Mann, no longer oppressed by overseers, started upon a glorious year of work. As the oldest body in the school, it has been a prominent group in establishing precedents. So conscien¬ tious has it been that the youthful members of the other classes have been univer¬ sally well trained in the way that they should go and should give little trouble to the school which we are so loath to leave. Now. the faculty and the principal have declared the Seniors capable of starting life for ourselves and therefore are giving us diplomas and their blessing as a fit end to our high school career. —Ruth Goodyear ’30 1 . .—.. ■ ffiorarr ittnmial Senior Class Will We, the Senior Class of 1930, Horace Mann High School in the city of Gary, county of Lake, State of Indiana, being of absolutely sane minds and sound bodies; being about to leave their realm of learning (we trust) do here¬ by desire to leave some remembrance to our fellow sufferers, the lower classmen and some sign of appreciation to the Faculty, who did their best for us— bless ’em! I. To the school board—the right to give whole holidays whenever the children want them. II. To the Juniors—the right to run the school after June. 19 JO. III. To the Sophomores—all the brain food we negligently left in the class rooms. IV. To the Freshman—the right to exist. V. To the Faculty, we leave the consolation of knowing that they could have had a worse class. To Mrs. Pickard, a Caesar class that can march all over Gaul, etc., blindfolded. To Mrs. Scheiss. more adjectives with which to flay the under classmen. To Mr. Fowble, a comfortable rocking chair so he can sleep peacefully. To Miss Skinner, a lot more inspirations for lunches. To Mr. Lutz, a nice red velvet rug and some pretty curtains. They would make a bawling out seem ' home-like. To Miss Sherrick. a nice gentle French class that can pronounce. To Miss Earlandson. a patent device which will enable her to knock pens off the ceiling without injuring the pupils. To Miss Daphne Williams, a correspondence school detective course to help trace all ditchers. In order that, we, the worth-while Senior Class may not be completely forgotten, and in order that we may live at least a year in the memory of their successors, we bequeath the following: To George Brown—Joe Hartill ' s height. To Frances Higgins-—-Violet Scroebel ' s heart. To Dorothy Cash—Ruby McCormack ' s width. To Norma Frabel—Helen Oleksa ' s snappy comebacks. To Raymond Novak—John Doyne ' s leading yells. To Dorothy Browne—Florence Brophey ' s sedateness. Alexander Aloia—Pete Kos ' haircut. Don Elser—Jimmie Johnson ' s ability to “trip the light fantastic.” Marie Floyd—Damaris Snell ' s southern charm. (Ahem!) Alice Ludberg—Margaret Salisbury ' s Oh Kid.” Peg Considine—Dorothy Krowell ' s natural school-girl complexion. Ed. Gorman—Mary Fitzgerald ' s ability to get out of classes. Betty Larson—Bernice Mears ' pep.” Jane Balcom—Ethel Dolan ' s ability to eat candy in gym (and get away with it). To highest bidder—Lud Yard ' s many cans of Copenhagen. John LeBoeuf— Better luck next time.” To John Foley—Shrimp Cavanaugh ' s technique; not saying in what! Louise Scott—Margaret Ravenscroft ' s sense. Frances Carew—Ehrhardt ' s beard. Don Graves—Leach’s “poker face. Gin McGinnity—Another Martin Biers. Bob Browne-— Pinky Robinson ' s gold-digging pennies. Verna Harris—Mildred Nance ' s sweetness.

I was asked to compose a suitable record that could go down in history as a memorial to mark the launching of another successful Senior Class: and I went to a certain woman supposedly possessed of super-natural powers to see just how much had been deemed worthy of record in the Great Book of Civilization. As I entered the dark, ill-lit, gloomy room where I was to meet the super¬ natural, a feeling of gloom and uneasiness came over me in spite of my oft-re¬ peated assertions that I did not believe in her power, but had come only to feed my curiosity. I started as I heard a slight noise behind me: slowly I turned around and stood face to face with Mme. Futero. She came toward me: she didn’t walk: she glided. “Please be seated in front of the crystal”, she said pointing to a low seat in front of what seemed to me to be a large glass bubble, but which I was to learn later was the means Madame used to communicate with the Other World”. Too nervous to do otherwise, I did as she asked. Her face was veiled and so to this day I do not know what she looks like, but I have never made an at¬ tempt to see her again. “You seek information?” she asked. “Yes. I wish to know how much of the history of the Junior Class of Horace Mann (my voice dropped reverently, as it always does, when I speak of my honored school) has been recorded in the “World Beyond ' where all worthy things are to be found.” “Ah, yes, I shall communicate with that world through my faithful ser¬ vant. the crystal, which sees all. I see a time in which a school is being erected: very little of importance is occurring. More activity is seen—it is football time —a small cyclone in the shape of a person named—” Ah, yes! that’s Don Elser. But he isn’t very small, by any means,” I broke in unable to keep silence any longer. “I must have silence.” she rebuked me severely. “It is winter, near Christ¬ mas. I believe, .great excitement prevails at Horace Mann. Oh. now I see what it is all about—a dance is being prepared. The gymnasium is being decorated for the occasion. Now I see the room: it is brightly lighted and gayly decorated. Everyone is garbed in his best. I see a shower of balloons being thrown from the balcony, and streamers are everywhere.” “Oh, it was wonderful,—that “Sophomore Hop!’ Can you see Miss Neff and her escort, the soldierly Basil Ray?” “I must have silence or the vision will fade. It is now the basketball sea¬ son and the whok town is talking about Messrs. Pavelick, Sereda. Altenhof, Elser. and Aubachon: their team is victorious.” But alas! the vision faded I could see no more, but I felt quite satisfied that all the good,w0rks had been recorded and the future looked bright for the Class of 1931.

Each year the team gets better, all due to the efforts of Coach Crown who in¬ spires them with “that fighting spirit”. Crown is looking forward to another successful season which schedule is al¬ ready arranged. Captain Lud Yards —Fullback Captain “Lud” Yards, all-state full¬ back and four year letter man, was one of the reasons for the teams unusual success. This was Lud ' s third year as fullback and what a clever plunger he was! Lud showed plenty of class in tearing opponents’ lines to pieces and will be especially remembered for his fine play on defense and offense. Coach Crown’s question will be to find an¬ other Yards somewhere. A great full¬ back indeed! 1930 Pagi Seventy- Football Schedule September 7, 1929—Horace Mann 6 LoX . 6 September 14, 1929—Horace Mann 13 Roosevelt 0 September 21, 1929—Horace Mann .25 DeLasalle 0 September 28. 1929—Horace Mann 12 Libby 18 October 5, 1929—Horace Mann 26 Mishawaka 0 October 12 , 1929—Horace Mann 45 Youngstown 16 October 19, 1929—Horace Mann 23 Washington . 0 October 26, 1929—Horace Mann 44 Ironwood .... 0 November 2. 1929—Horace Mann 25 Emerson . 0 November 16, 1929—Horace Mann 29 Froebel 0 November 23, 1929—Horace Mann 38 Fort Wayne 0 286 36 s - 1930 Page Seventy-eight Storari? ittamtal jfyaracv manual= 1930 = florae? manual Page Eighty Page Eighty-one 1930 He ck ,Lc r Queen 3uhnson g Sjorarr manual Ws Games The annual game with Gary LoX opened the season and a real football game was played. The game ended in a 6 to 6 tie for the second consecutive year. The next week the Horsemen took on the strong Roosevelt team of East Chicago. Horace Mann and Roosevelt shared their football camp together at Camp Crosley this year. With all the rivalry of friendly enemies the Horsemen defeated the Rough Riders. Out of Chicago came the Champs of 1929 with a hard hitting team. The Horsemen turned back the DeLasalle team 25-0 but in so doing six first string men were injured, a fact which played a part in the next contest. The following week, the Horsemen journeyed to Libby. Ohio, minus the services of Captain Lud Yards. Frank Kurth. Pete Kos and Virgil Kirkland, the Red and White went down fighting and took their only defeat of the season, 18-12. The Buckeyes scored on long runs and passes by fast halfbacks. In a listless game the warriors came back to form and defeated the Cavemen of Mishawaka. The Horsemen offense was working perfectly and long sensa¬ tional runs were exhibited by the Horsemen backfield with perfect interference from the line. The following week the Horsemen journeyed to South High of Youngstown, Ohio. This was the Horsemen’s second invasion into Ohio territory. The South players checked the Horsemen’s offense in the first quarter but the Horse¬ men backfield finally opened up with long runs resulting in touchdowns. The Ohio players were held in check throughout the entire game until the final quarter when they scored on the third team. The game closed with the Horse¬ men on the long end of the score. The Horsemen came home to play Washington High of East Chicago the following week. This is an annual battle for the two schools and much en¬ thusiasm is always aroused. The Horsemen line showed brilliantly in this game by checking two of the fastest halfbacks in Indiana known as Walton and Patterson, East Chicago’s Gold Dust twins. The East Chicago line was not strong enough to check the Horsemen back, so the final score was 1 3-0. The week following the powerful eleven from Ironwood, Michigan, in¬ vaded the Horace Mann gridiron. The year before the Horsemen journeyed to Ironwood where the game ended in a bitter battle: the final score was 6-6. This year the Horsemen were too much for the Northerners and the gun cracked with the Horsemen leading 44-0. November 2nd, the city series was opened at Gleason Feld by Horace Mann and Emerson. A large crowd was on hand as a hard game had been predicted. At the end of the half Horace Mann led by a score of 13-0. The second half) was not so hotly contested, and the second team was sent in about the fourth quarter, the final score being 25-0. Horace Mann and Froebel now met to decide the city championship. This was a bitterly contested game, as the Horesmen had not beaten the Blue Devils up to date. In a hard fought game in which the line and backfield functioned perfectly the Horsemen came out on top 29-0. Horace Mann and Central of Fort Wayne met at Fort Wayne to decide who should be State Champions. Horace Mann was well represented at this game as the Gary fans chartered a special train of ten cars, and the game was broad¬ casted to accommodate those who could not attend. The team ran almost at will against Central, the final score being 38-0. 1930 ' ' ' y g [ ' age Eighty-two Itnrarr itiaitual Outstanding Football Heroes Frank Kurth— End This makes Frank ' s fourth year of varsity football in as many years at Horace Mann. He started his football career playing end and was never known to play any other position. Early injuries kept him from seeing more action this year, nevertheless he played state championship football while in the first three and last two games of the season. Frank was always there with the goods and has shown many an opponent how to make use of what nature gave him. There was real class in his playing. Harold was just another one of those clever tackles who knows his game well and how he plays it is just another worry for opponents. He began playing every position on the team until he found his position at tackle and tackled so hard, he made all-state. If you want to learn more about this lad just watch his record when he goes to college. He was a real player. Paul Cavanaugh— Quarterback “Shrimp” was a great quarterback and many, many a season will pass before the Horse¬ men get a more capable team manager than Cavanaugh. He was a Horace Mann product and played varsity football four years. He has played a great game in his high school career and we wish him the same success in college. He was one of the outstanding quarterbacks in the state. Shrimp was an ex-captain of 26-27-28. Mahlon Leach— Tackle Leach, another veteran of this year ' s team has played his last game of ball. He was more famous for his returning of kick-offs. His greatest and longest run was in the Emerson game. This was only one of his works of art. but if you ever played with him you would soon know that his hands were the other. He sure can use them—and How! Ask one who knows. Edmund Queen —Center Edanother four year man. was one of the first players of Horace Mann to put on a suit. He has played almost every position on the team until this year when he played a steady game at center. ' Ed ' ' could be depended upon in any game to do his duty. He was not a team by himself and didn ' t expect to be. but as a center he held his own for the good of the team. Captain-Elect Elser —Half Here he is. ladies and gentlemen—the popular selection for captaincy. ' Don” started to play football at Horace Mann under the reign of Crown. Don started right out by making the varsity his first year and has played regular since. He is a great offensive back, a hard runner and tough to bring down. He has been poison to many an opposing team and next year we hope to see him at his best. We are looking forward to a big year for Don” as leader of the Horseman team of 1930. Paul Harrington —End Paul played a good game as substitute and earned his major letter. He is plenty fast at running down punts and can snag passes which should make him a regular next year. Good luck to you Paul! =1930= Page Eighty- iBnrnrr JMntmnl — ■ - w - — 1830 Page Eighty-six eM cirare fflnmtnl -- = 3 (Basketball Hugh Bergstrom— Asst. Coach Coach Bergstrom, a graduate of the University of Illinois, put in his ap¬ pearance for the first time at Horace Mann during the fall of 1929. Previous to this he had met Horace Mann Ath¬ letes at Camp Crosley, Indiana, where he was an assistant coach during Spring Football training. He is the head swim¬ ming coach and assistant in the other sports. Captain Pete Kos —Center “All-State” center in 1929. Pete was chosen to lead the Horsemen in an at¬ tack for the season of 1930. During the football season Captain Pete Kos re¬ ceived a knee injury that handicapped him the fore part of the basketball sea¬ son, causing him to stay out of the first important games. Nearing the end of the season, Pete began hitting the hoop with the form of another all- state” center. Captain Kos was general¬ ly a high scorer in all games in which he participated. 1930 Page Eighly-s — ' ■ Siorarg fRnmuil November 29. 1929—Horace Mann 18 Washington, Ind. 19 November 30. 1929—Horace Mann 23 Hammond 19 December 11. 1929—Horace Mann . 33 Emerson . 20 December 17, 1929—Horace Mann . 20 Logansport . . 12 December 20. 1929—Horace Mann 19 Roosevelt, E.

Storace manual ( Basketball Games After a very successful football season the “Fighting Horsemen entered their basketball career by playing a strong Southern Indiana team. Washington. Although the Crown coached team started a week late because of the State Football Game with Fort Wayne, Washington only defeated them by a score of 19-18. December 21, Washington came to Gary to play in Memorial Auditorium. Washington showed up better than they had on their own floor; this time they defeated Horace Mann, by the larger score of 26-14. In this game the Gary fans witnessed a state championship team in action. The first game of the annual city series was played by Horace Mann against Emerson on December 1 1. Horace Mann’s superiority was marked from the start. They won 20-33. The second game, which was played against Emerson, was a much more exciting and better game as the teams had more teamwork and both played a faster game than in their first encounter. Horace Mann won this game. The New Year was not started off very well by the Horsemen as they were defeated in a sluggish game with Froebel, 18-30. Their next encounter with Froebel was a better game by far than was played on New Year ' s. Horace Mann won 29-19. Two days after the first Froebel game the strong Senators of Washington. East Chicago, invaded Gary. The teams were evenly balanced and the game was a toss-up from practically the start. Horace Mann won by the very low score of 9-7. This game was of the stalling and slow breaking variety which gives the crowd a thrill. The next game was played in East Chicago on January 29. Coach Crown did not use his first string men in this encounter as he had to save them because each one is only allowed to play in 20 games prior to the sectional: therefore they lost 24-11. Frankfort came to Gary on January 7th with a scrappy team that could hit the basket. They won 18-16 in a great game. On February 1st Horace Mann journeyed to Frankfort where they defeated the “Hot Dogs 25-21. The Sectional Tournament started on February 29, with Horace Mann playing Roosevelt. Gary, for the first game. This game was the joke of the tournament as Roosevelt started stalling the first thing and Horace Mann put on their sweat shirts and took a rest. Score at the half was 0-0. The second half the Horsemen opened up and gave Roosevelt a trouncing. The second game found Horace Mann facing Hobart, who expected to up¬ set the dope by beating our team. The first half ended fairly even but Hobart fell by the wayside in the last half and were eliminated. In the semi-finals Horace Mann met the powerful Washington team from East Chicago. The game furnished the major upset of the season as Washing¬ ton defeated Horace Mann 16-14. This was a closely contested game and the score was tied a great deal of the time, although Washington kept a slight lead practically throughout the game. 1930 Page Eighty- .- - ISorarr fMaiutnl Cross-Country and Track Teams Rudolph Kominski —Coach Coach Kominski came to Horace Mann from Jefferson two years ago. While at Jefferson he produced many championship grade school teams. Last year Coach Kominski whipped a team into as good shape as is possible in one year and he managed to place second in the city meet. This year Coach Komin¬ ski has worked hard on both his Cross- Country and Track teams. The Cross- Country team was never defeated in a dual team and won third at Iowa which was a very good showing for a team in its first year. On the track and field his men are showing up very well and are giving the other teams a run for their money. - Gerald Johnson —Captain Probably one of the best trackmen developed by Coach Kominski was Captain Gerald Johnson. The success of Captain Johnson was due to Coach Kominski’s determination to succeed. A tall lanky lad who made use of every inch of himself when he traveled the mile. He trained well, fought hard and was a trackman of which any school could be proud. Gerald now holds the city record for the mile run. i nn - Page Ninety-i iSorare HHamml ■ - Xfo Track Schedule March 21, 22—National Indoor (Northwestern U.). April 5—Roosevelt (E. C.) Dual Meet.

The season ' s record was unusually good, although it was the first year in varsity competition. In the first meet, November 1, Horace Mann Harriers defeated the Olson coached team from Froebel, on the latter’s home two and a quarter mile course. The following week, November 9, a team consisting of Gerald Johnson, Joe Altenhof, George Baluk and Dick Snyder invaded Iowa for the Mid-West¬ ern championship meet. Out of thirty-one schools Horace Mann scored third place with runner-up honors going to George Baluk for the Horace Mann team. On November 19, a decisive victory was scored over Hammond Harriers; Horace Mann runners taking the first six places. In the last meet, November 21, Loyola Academy of Chicago was also de¬ feated on a cold and windy day. Nine of the ten runners from Horace Mann placed among the first eleven men to qualify. The Cross-Country team went through the season without a defeat in a dual meet and third place at the Mid-Western Cross Country meet at the Uni¬ versity of Iowa. 193CI Page Ninety-three — Sioracr fflaitnal Swimming This is the first swimming team which has represented Horace Mann. They were coached by Coach Hugh Bergstrom. Although the team did not show up very well, as a whole, some of the members did well in their special events: Gordon Miller in the dashes. Edward Pripps in the back stroke and James Mac¬ Donald in the breast stroke. The Junior High team has a very good chance of winning the city title.

Miss Elsie Earlandson, sponsor, assisted by Miss Irene Jennings, Mr. C. C. Whiteman, and Mr. W. H. Masters, directed the selection of worthy students. The members were chosen on the basis of char¬ acter, scholarship, leadership, and service. This Society is a national high school organization, which corresponds to the collegiate Phi Beta Kappa in scholar¬ ship requirements. Members must stand in the upper third of their class in scholarship, but are selected with a view to the encouragment of a well-balanced development in student life. Only fifteen per cent of the 1 2A class are eligible and only ten per cent may be selected before their last semester. No one is eligible until the last semester of his Junior year. Each member wears a pin which is a mark of his high standing. As the society was not organized soon enough to include the first graduating class, two honorary members, Dorothea Murray and Louise Nager were selected from the Alumni. Members chosen the first semester are: Clyde Erickson Arden Farnsley Gerald Johnson Catherine Sams Dorothy Levinson 1 330 - Page One hundred five Louise Tittle Rachel Newell Dorothy Hoover Maerose Curran Ruth Goodyear Lois Pocock Wm.

There was no sign of the emotion that was in every Senior ' s heart. Tears were just back of those joyous smiles. The Dance was given at the Masonic Temple. June 7th. It was an informal affair. The committees that helped to make the dance a success, typical of all Senior activities, were: Music: Vincent Tippman. chairman: Damaris Snell. Traver Hartill and Margaret Salisbury.

Formal!—Just a few words but they brought havoc to many a girlish heart and brought forth the following expressions, “What to wear . “With Whom to go , “Oh. I saw the most beautiful , et cetera. The Juniors entertained the Seniors at the Annual Prom, May 24. 1930. Other guests were the school board, the faculty, and parents. To Horace Mann Loyalty, played so stirringly by Norman Care and His Playboys, the Grand March proceeded, led by John Foley and Miss Dorothy Herrold. This was the great dance of the year as it was the only formal affair given. It proved to be a most enjoyable function and will long be remembered with delight by those present. Could one ever forget the music, the beautiful formal gowns of the girls—the correct attire of the boys—the icy punch and soft lights? The committees were: Bids: Ruth Staton. John Kenward. and Francis Higgins. Decorations: Dorothy Browne. Margaret Considine. Verna Harris. William O ' Donnell, and Bob Browne. Refreshments: John Kenward. and Edward Gorman. Class Officers: John Foley. President: Virginia Neff. Vice-President: Louise Scott, Secre¬ tary: Fred Stults. Treasurer. The Sophomore Hop Not to be outdone just because they were “underclassmen (commonly known as “Saps”), the Sophomores gave one of the peppiest, snappiest dances of the year—the Sophomore Hop. an ' was it ever a Hop”! It was held February at the Masonic Temple. To the strains of Horace Mann Loyalty the Grand March began. During the evening another march was started. Favors were received— fans for the girls and canes for the boys. After this a real honest-to-goodness carnival started. Confetti flying hither and yon—everywhere. Promptly at 12 o ' clock, the soft strains of “Home Sweet Home” was heard then—home, all talking of the wonderful time they had had. The committees were: Music: Bob Fleischman. Don Graves, and Charles McDonald. Refreshments and Favors: Cora Edmonds. Marjorie Peet. Alice Hagerstrom. and Clarence Hall. Bids: Bill Roseberry, Clarice Hunt. Lois Hermansen.
