Q_oqDojd [PoclkaD ' d] FOREWORD The Scrapbook speaks: They have named me ' Scrapbook ' , and have inscribed upon my pages, their records, their pictures, and their history as a class. Be¬ cause, through me, in picture and story, the class of ' 33 at Horace Mann will live in happy memory, I am proud to bear my title. Other yearbooks have gone before me, at Horace Mann, resplendant in their artistry, and clothed in covers of richness and gilt. It is for me, creature of the great depression, to mirror forever in my simplicity, an example of courage, of hours of patient labor, and un¬ ceasing devotion to a goal under handicap. It is, therefore, with the utmost pride, in being what I am, that I appear before you now, the completed---Scrapbook. The Staff speaks: At the close of the term which finds the class of 1933 at the close of its High School life, there has come to our minds more often than ever before, the subject which we have chosen as the dominate theme of our class yearbook. This theme has grown dearer, and nearer to us, with the whisper of each passing day.-• It is our own glorious -----Horace Mann School.

We take with us pleasant memories of our school life, and of the friends we have found in you, our teachers. We can think of nothing as noble and as loyal as the untiring, unselfish aid and guidance which you have given us through this quartet of years. Your hearty coop¬ eration has made these lean years rich for us and with deep appreciation, we, the class of ’ 33, do dedicate this book to you, the teachers of Horace Mann. _ James C.

KoniNSKI Horace Manual depression issue A defiant but somewhat nervous crowd of Freshmen fur¬ tively slunk into their respective rooms, sat on the edge of their seats and fearfully eyed their new teachers, for they were embarking on a momentous High School career. However, in spite of their unhappy condition M l they turned out a very good play The Poor Little Rich Girl . Gaining confidence in our next Sophomore year, we were able to look with sympathetic pity on the trials and tribu¬ lations of our successors. Some of us participated in The Gondoliers , a Gilbert and Sullivan creation directed and trained by Mrs. Sheehan. Then we tried our own hand and put over a marvelous play, The Romantic Age . Next we directed our attention to the Sophomore Hop which was held on Feb. 14, 1931. Jimmy Johnson, our Editor-in-Chief, then Pres, of the Soph, class, and his partner led the Grand March. 1931 marked 1st year of the Horace Mann boxing tournament which now, in its 3rd year, has been a chief source of entertain- ment for the boys and their fathers. Cl 1 When we reached our Junior year we were the Big Shots t of the school, tipping our hats only to the Seniors. V We bossed the Sophs, and scorned the Frosh. We turned our 100 for the formal dance of the year, the Junior-Senior Ball, which we and the Seniors collaborated in putting over. Altogether, it was a hilarious year as well as a step upward. At last we turned the corner of our Senior quarter, some 4 0 of us saddened at the thought of leaving the institution which had housed our worries and aspirations for the past four years, others looking forward with eager anticipation to a series of successes of which the time spent at HM was but the first step. The first event of our last year was the election in which we placed Russell Morrow as Pres., Harry Bortz Vice-pres., Mary Dale Cox, Sec ' 6; and James C. Johnson, Trea . Our executive staff very ably lead us through ' “ifrrepi tf alls cunningly laid and concealed by the spite- acuity. The Senior Play, Tradesman Turned Gentleman , a huge success. The greatest accomplishment of our class was this Scrapbook , fought for and attained by an intrepid staff. Thru the black discouragement of a world-wide depress¬ ion, the Horace Mann tradition-The Horace Manual—was kept up. William Welch ful was Horace Manual. DEPRESSION ISSUE yrP ' 4 r Q2 JAMES C.

DEPRESSION ISSUE THE CLASS OF 1934 All aboard! All aboard! The Freshman train is pull¬ ing out for High school! Students push and shove to get Jtfie train, calling fond farewells, and holding fast |to suitcases filled with hopes, ambitions and dreams |for a four years tour of adventure at Horace Mann. 0 FThe whistle blows and they ' re off! The journey is a thrilling one. Those who are more studious are received into the folds of the Junior Honor Society, the singers join others in putting on the opera The Gondol¬ iers , and the youthful lads who aspire to be great foot¬ ball stars faithfully eat their porridge every morning. The actors bring back to life Billy Bones and John Silver in Treasure Island. It is generally agreed that we have very good treasure hunters. The cleverness of the decor¬ ations at the Freshman Frolic have never been excelled; beautiful flov ers lined the walls, and from the ceiling hung Japanese lanterns. C The train stops with a jerk! There is a grand scramble Jas the conductor calls out Everybody out! Everybody out! Change cars for the Sophomore train! Don ' t forget your books and packages. All out-. Excited Sophomores board the train. Some have fallen by the wayside, but are not missed in the excitement. There is bigger and F better entertainment on this trip. Willie Baxter ' s excellent love making in Seventeen brings forth many ohs and ahs . The Sophomore Hop marks another victory for the class. Many tongue-tied and embarrassed youths have great difficulty in finding courage to invite their best girls, but at the dance a good time was had by all. At the third station the train takes on more self-poss¬ essed and accomplished students. Many of them look with longing eyes at those taken into the Senior Honor Society, a ' nd hope that some day they will have this great honor thrust upon them. The Junior play Clarence displays f J great talent and certainly plays a game with the JP names Smun, Smart, Smith, and Moon. Many of our boys d - have at last realized their dreams of being athletic heroes. The girls have also shown great skill in various athletic events. This years Music Festival brought more talent to light in both the Mixed Chorus and the Girls ' Glee Club. The Junior class has just one more offering to make before assuming the responsibilities of upper¬ classmen which will be the Prom. --Lois Kirtland - 21 - Horace Manual William Ha ke June Townsley William Wilkinson Hortense Milgram June Transeau Roger Stapleton Dorothy Davis Chas.

The qualitli necessary for membership in this honorary society are character, scholarship, leadership and service. This society is a national high school organization corresponding to the collegiate Phi Beta Kappa in scholarship requirements. Officers and members are el ected in the fall i the spring of each year. The officers chosen in the fall of 1932 were: William Welch, pri James Johnson, vice-president; Ellen June Peterson, secretary; and Hilda Hfloper, treasurer This spring, the following were elected: Phyllis Lietz, president; William Wilkinson, vici president; Helen Burress, secretary; and Chester Dunn, treasurer.

The mission of the ft. 0. T. C. is to awaken In the student an appreciation of the obligations of citizenship, to prepare him to discharge his duties as a citizen, and to qualify him as a military leader. There are those who have the idea that military training is nothing more or less than a training school for soldiers, while ft. C. T. G. is established essentially for military training, the idea of continuing and promoting this system is not to make soldiers, but men—men who will be prepared to take their rightful places in the busi¬ ness and professional world because they have learned those principles which are essen- ■ating tlal to success. The drill, although a secondary part of military training, is very important, as it forces all of the cadets to take exercise in a most healthful form. It not only promotes physical strength and development, but it also encourages the cadet to strive, to excell. For, in military service, merit alone wins. The Cajet officers have a valuable opportunity to cultivate discretion, tact, judgment and opportunity to command others. Training in command and control of r is of incalculable value to a boy in this age of great enterprises when f command is the key to success. It is the best system of training t J ' j ' ability. One of the greatest benefits a boy derives from drill is tne art of cooper with his fellowmen. Not only should a boy be capable of commanding men, but he must also be able to work with them, and understand that team-work is one of the fundamental principles upon which the business of the present time is based. Military training induces pride in dress as well as in personal conduct as deport¬ ment; it teaches the importance of self-reliance in order that responsibilities may be met with credit and success; it assists nature in physical development, and brings with it manliness of figure and carriage; it frowns on anythin that is low, dishonor¬ able, and unmanly. ,ye believe that military training, far from interfering with other duties of a student, serves rather to inculcate those traits which are necessary to the foundation of a well-rounded, well-educated man. ... , 4 „ „„„ in the Gary High schools, the 0.

Horace Manual DEPRESSION ISSUE THE SOCIETY SPOTLIGHT And a grand time was had by allt at the social events of the Horace Mann students for the past year. The highlights of the year were the dances that were given by the various organizations. Let ' s retrace our steps, and see when, where, and how the students enjoyed themselves. These are the dances that were so talked about - JUNIOR-SENIOR BALL The gaiety and merriment of the most looked-forward-to social event of the year helped to cheer the Seniors as they realized this was their last taste of those grand high school memories. It was the stirring climax of a happy year. The President of the Senior Class, Russell Morrow, and the President of the Junior Class, Bill Hake, with their partners led the colorful grand march. SOPHOMORE HOP Celebrating St. Patrick ' s Day, the Sophomore ' s held their annual Hop on March 17th. The grand march was led by Robert Craig and his guest, Miss Elizabeth Webb, to the strik¬ ing music of Bill Lauderbach ' s orchestra. The girls ' gym was adorned with shamrocks and all the trimmings for this great event. The class officers: Robert Craig President; Sam Hall, Vice-President; Richard McNiel, Treasurer; Mary Ellen Tuerff; Secretary, were respon¬ sible for the success of the dance. MILITARY BALL The Masonic Temple was bedecked with true military decorations on April 88nd when the cadets of Emerson, Froebel, and Horace Mann attended the Ball. The right wing of the grand march was led by Cadet Colonel Stuart Houser and Miss Grace Hendrickson, the left wing was led by Cadet Lieutenant Colonel Gardner Kreiser and Miss Dorothy Monahan, Honar- ary Cadet Colonel. Captain S. H. Hollingsworth presented commissions to the company Captains and Lieutenants and the company sponsors. Sargeant H. H. Vondrasek and the regimental staff were responsible for the huge success of the Ball. D. U. X. Gold and blue, the colors of the club, decorated the gym when the D. U. X. Club enter¬ tained on January 87th. Elwood Booth and his partner Miss Margaret Dodds led the grand march while the Hoosier Melodians played. The success of the dance was due to Bill Hake, Fred Collins, Elwood Booth, Charles Hanley, and Roger Stapleton. S. U. S. DANCE The Christmas Dance given by the S.U.S. was a gay affair. The music was by Buc.. Seeley and his Orchestra. Clever red bells lent a holiday atmosphere. Betty Loeffel, the Presi¬ dent, and her partner led the Grand March. The chairmen of the various committees respon¬ sible for the da.ice ' s success were: Orchestra, Constance Bolotoff; Decorations, Rosemary Transeau; Programs, Martha Schuckers; and Advertisements, Catherine Cavanaugh. A. E. P. DANCE The A. E. P. Valentine Dance on the 10th of February was one of the most effective dances of the year. The girls ' gym was skillfully transformed by a multitude of spark¬ ling red hearts. The rhythmic.music was furnished by Norman Care and His Playboys. The President, Mary Ridgely and her escort led the Grand March. The committees to whom credit was given were: Orchestra, Jayne Wilson, Mary Ridgely, and June Transeau; Bids and Programs, Cleo Ownes, Georgia Jordon, and Patsy Atcherson. 0 . I . DANCE A Spring Dance was given by the Girls ' Ath¬ letic Association on the 88th of April. The novel setting was a garden scene, with trellis¬ es and park benches along the walls, Hickey Is- ley ' s Orchestra played. The Grand March was led by Kay Bar lock, President and her partner. The Chairmen of the committee in charge of the dance were: Decoration, Ruth Anderson: Orchestra, Dorothy Beilin: Programs, Betty Loeffel, and Publicity, Marion Sisler. —Patsy Atcherson Horace Manual DEPRESSION ISSUE DECEMBER 2—With all but two of last year ' s varsity aqifed back, and the additl _ Jenson, Don Daoey and Glen Smith to replace those, Coach Keith Crown ' s Horsemen opened ' , y, , y f, i _ - i _ n 1 4 • ILmakI a 1 A 11 1 t Al� 1 llm Oh nr i no 2f) the 1932 season with a - points to Central ' s 8. i defeat of Catholic Central in Memorial Auditorium, scoring 2 DECEMBER 8—Mann journeyed to Lew Wallace and handed the Hornets a 23 to 14 defeat, with Aubuchon leading the scoring and Captain Sutherland a close second.

DECEMBER 16— Froebel, another of the Steel City rivals, handed our Horsemen another dose of castor oil to the tune of 25 to 17. DECEMBER 20—The Fighting Horsemen, anxious to revenge the last two of local squads, journeyed to Peru to take on the Peruvian menace , state team a bit tough, losing by 6 points, 30 to 24. defeats at the hands and found the down- 21—While down state, Mann treked to Delphi and took the Oracles into camp with point, 16 to 15 victory. This win gave the Horsemen new spirit on the journey home, DECEMBER 23—Defeat awaited them on their own door-step, and the Oilers of Whiting were the generous undertakers, 30 to 26. DECEMBER 29—Horace Mann ' s followers were forced to be content with a first-round de¬ feat by Emerson, in the Holiday Tourney, by a score of 25 to 12. DECEMBER 30—In the consolation round Mann took it on the nose from Roosevelt E.C. to the tune of 33 to 19. Still the tourney was a huge moral success to both the squad and the rooters. JANUARY 6—With new courage and minus the services of Suds , the Horsemen visited the home grounds of the Rough Riders of Roosevelt E.C., but were set back in a close-fought game, 20 to 18 . ' DICK AT Horace Manual DEPRESSION ISSUE JANUARY 13—Treking to Valparaiso, the Vikings presented to Mann on its arrival, a hand- full of points, 17 in all, but kept more than a hand-full for themselves—26. JANUARY 14—Assuring the Horace Mann boosters of a good time, at least until the next game, the Horsemen, playing a fine brand of ball, and led by Captain Aubuchon, bewildered the Washington squad, 26 to 21. JANUARY 20--Again the Horsemen} This time the victims were the Hammond Wildcats to the tune of 26 to 23. Working together, and making the best of every opportunity, Mann, again led by their captain, Aubuchon, who scored 15 points, came out the best team. JANUARY 27—That a team cannot defeat another team three straight in one season, proved true, and turning the tables, the Fighting Horsemen defeated the Norsemen of Emerson, 21 to 14. JANUARY 28—Whiting Community Gym was the scene of a 33 to 29 defeat for the Horsemen, although Obren and Aubuchon did score 8 points each, and Jenson bagged 6. FEBRUARY 3—Roosevelt ' s Rough-Riders were victims of Horace Mann ' s giant center ' s ability to convert in close, as he connected on 6 to lead the Mann scorers. The game ended 31 to 17, with the Horsemen on the long end. FEBRUARY 7—A sad day for the Horsemen. Froebel scored 8 points too many for them, and won the game 23 to 15. Again Aubuchonl FEBRUARY 11—In one of the best games seen in the Memorial Auditorium during the season, the Vikings of Valpo edged out a 23 to 21 win over the Horsemen. Jenson led our scoring with 10 points. FEBRUARY 17—Again the Horsemen treked to East Chicago, and this time tasted defeat from the hands of the Senators of Washington, 22 to 20. A thrill a minutel FEBRUARY 23--In the list scheduled game of the season, the Horsemen trounced the Wallace Hornets 35 to 19, and established themselves as a tournament threat. THE SECTIONAL TOURNAMENT, MARCH 3—Displaying beautiful teamwork, and aided by the fact that Obie was on, and Rollins was kept secluded, the Horsemen defeated Washington of East Chicago 25 to 15, in the first round game. MARCH 3, (evening)—Possibly it was the fact of two games in one day, or possibly it was over-confidence in the Mann camp, however, no matter what the cause, the Hammond Wild¬ cats , defeated earlier in the season 28 to 14, and 26 to 23, by the Horsemen, turned the tables, and defeated the Horsemen 26 to 20. Again, that fateful three straight might be considered. --Russ W. Morrow FOOTBALL It could not be said that the season of 1932 was the best that the Fighting Horsemen have experienced since they entered competition in that sport in 1926, but one could surely say with due sincerity that they had by far a better team than the scores or the games show. This team was perhaps not as big and powerful as the ones of the past have been but it can be said that they went down to defeat twice in the season. They were always out there scraping and always came out for more. In the course of the season the Horsemen lost two games, tied two, and won five. By put¬ ting it all together, they finished second in the Western division of the NIHSC and also annexed the city championship to their list of achievements. This fact alone made the season a great success in the eyes of the players and also of the students. However, not all the credit must be given to the players, but a great deal to Coach Kerr, who stepped into the job of head coach only two weeks before the football season opened and carried through to such a great- degree. And in those two weeks he had to build up a machine that was torn apart by the graduation of such players as Steve Chelle, Leon Dailey, and Chuck Hecker. In this respect he succeeded for he developed many play¬ ers that could be rated on a par with those previously mentioned. September 24th In the first game of the season the Horsemen faced the Champions of Illinois in the Hall Township Team, better known as Spring Valley. It was played under the floods of Gleason Field, as was the majority of the games, and showed that the home team was very green and needed a lot of ripening. We lost 19-7. September 30th The following week Libbey of Toledo, rated as one of the best prep teams in the country, was met and defeated 14-7. The team that took the field that night was lOOg efficient and outplayed Libbey in every phase of the game. The play was marked by two brilliant touch¬ down runs, one by Jack Snyder and the other by Alex Bust Em Bartos. This game played with the Whiting Oilers, which ended in a scoreless tie, perhaps hurt the record of the Horsemen greater than ar y other game for it caused them to lose a tie with Washington for first place honors in the NIHSC. Whiting, although rated as the under¬ dog, upset the dope and outplayed the Red and White entirely through the game to gain a moral victory for themselves. October 14 th Traveling to East Chicago for their only game away from home, the Horsemen encountered the Senators from Washington in a game that was packed with thrills and chills from start to finish. The Senators, trailing badly by 12 points in the first half, came back to gain a victory 13-12 by virtue of a point after a touchdown from the tired warriors of Horace Mann. October 21st A rejuvenated team took the field against a highly trained football team from Emerson and, although rated equal with them, the Horsemen emerged victorious by a 12-6 score. In this game the Horsemen lost the very able services of their star center, Ed Fleming, who had to retire late in the game on account of a broken ankle. or.age Manual October 29th Roosevelt of East Chicago met the Horsemen on a bitterly cold afternoon a nd surprised everybody by holding them scoreless until late in the last quarter, when Berl Heflin booted a field goal from the 25 yard line and snatched the game out of the fire 3-0. November 4th On a slippery field caused by a drizzle throughout the game, the Horsemen were stung by the Hornets of Lew Wallace, who surprisingly held them to a 7-7 tie. November 11th The Blue Devils from Froebel, who had a poor season, met the Horsemen on a snowy night and were defeated 13-6. By winning this game Horace Mann won the City Championship for the third time and the second time in a row. November 18th On a cold bleak afternoon the Horsemen met and defeated the widdcats from Hammond and, although outplayed throughout the entire game by their opponents, who gained some 300 yards from scrimmage to Horace Mann ' s 60, and who produced 20 first downs to 3, the Horsemen made the breaks count and finished on the long end of a 7-6 score. This game was featured by the use of gym shoes by al 1 players on account of the frozen turf.

The chief contenders for the quarter mile are Glenn Smith, Roger Smith, Driscoll, and Bond. For the dashes Clifford, Booth, Snyder, Fletcher, and Fuerst are the most outstanding. Obren, Fuerst, Carr, Price, Slapikus, are the hurdle men. FIELD EVENTS: In the pole vault there is Lacey, Bardos, Slapikus, and Obren. For the high Jump Lacey, Parker, Devine, and LLoyd are the best. The shot put is monopolized by Bardos and Bann; Price and Bardos are in the broad jump. The 1933 track season was opened at Michigan City. Horace Mann won rather handily by a 70 to 41 score. Horace Mann scored slams in both the half and quarter mile runs. Clifford won the hundred yard dash, Booth the 380 yard dash, Lacey the pole vault, Fuerst the low hurdles, Glenn Smith the quarter mile, and Grow the half mile. The city meet was held at Mann field April 39. Froebel was first with 68 points. Horace Mann second with 33 points, and Roosevelt third with 81 points. Horace Mann ' s only first place was in the half mile relay. (Booth, Snyder, Fletcher, Clifford). Horace Mann scored second in, the mile relay (G. Smith, Bond, Grow, R. Smith), third in the 100 yard dash (Clifford), third in the 330 yard low hurdles (Carr), second and third in the 830 yard dash (Booth, Snyder), also second and third in the 440 yard dash (G. Smith, R. Smith), the half mile (Grow, Stapleton), and the mile (Balutewlcz, Tobias). In the field events Horace Mann ' s only place was a tie for fourth in the pole vault by Lacey. The Schedule for the remaining meets: May 6----NIHSC meet at Horace Mann May 13— -----———Sectional meet at Horace Mann May 20——-——---State meet at Indianapolis CROSS COUNTRY Again under the expert tutelage of Coach Kominski, the Horace Mann Harriers annexed the 1933 NIHSC Championship. With Balutewlcz, Stapleton, Grow, and Tobias showing their heels to the majority of the opponents, the cross country team won most of their meets by overwhelming scores. The Harriers opened their season by defeating Emerson 15-60. Stapleton, Balutewlcz, Grow, Tobias and Driscoll were the first five runners to cross the finish line. A week later they defeated the strong team from Kalamazoo, 18-37. Again Stapleton and Balutewlcz finished one, two. This was a notable victory because Kalamazoo has held the Class A cross country championship of Michigan for two years. Horace Manual depression ISSUE On the following week, the crack team from Hammond was defeated by the Harriers In one of the closest races of the season. Sitko of Hammond was first but Horace Mann placed the next six runners. Horace Mann won 30-42. Next week saw Horace Mann down Froebel 18-44, with Balutewicz, Grow, and Stapleton finishing in the order named. In the final dual meet the Horsemen trounced Lew Wallace 15-63; The first eight runners to finish from Horace Mann. The conference championship was held Thanksgiving Day, at Riverside Park. Although Hammond placed the first two runners, the Harriers, running with their usual well balanced team strength, won the meet by a score of 28. Hammond was second with 33, and Proebel third with 72. In the last four years the Horsemen have won 27 dual meets and lost 1. In 1929 they won all dual meets and finished second in the mid-west cross country championship at Iowa City. Horace Manual DE.PRE155ION ISSUE!
