Ecology influences students, community in Mann district Environment is usually taken for granted until something goes wrong, or it undergoes noticeable change, Horace Mann’s environment came to the atten¬ tion of many. .4 record number of 2,200 pupils at¬ tended Horace Mann although the ca¬ pacity is only 1,650. Crowded halls, lockers and classrooms resulted. The familiar sight of Horace Mann’s chimney belching huge clouds of black, sooty smoke in the winter won attention of pollution experts. The building has the doubtful honor of being the only city school building still burning coke screenings. All year long students were distracted by the sounds of heavy machinery. Houses were torn down and a new build¬ ing erected and annexed to Methodist Hospital to increase its capacity. Sand dunes behind neighboring Vohr school were leveled and trees torn out to provide space for portable classrooms. A longer view of this resulted as trees lining the streets were removed be¬ cause of disease, leaving an unbroken skyline down Sixth avenue. Students from surrounding areas became aware of these necessary changes as each day they came to school and became a part of the Brotherhood of Mann. At the of each hour a hand reaches inside classroom doors to collect attendance slips. Every day begins with the raising of American flag hy ROTC members. Students learn to work, study, and discuss ideas together in this and other classrooms. Mr. Steve Harris helps 7th and 8th grade students with their problems in algebra. Students build Brotherhood of Mann” The 8:00 bell rings, students make a last-minute rush for their seats and the class settles down. A mysterious hand collects the attendance slip from the door —the school day begins. To most, school is routine; closer examination proves each day unique. As the year pro¬ gresses, new friendships grow, students and faculty get a better understanding of one another, clubs are organized and school teams are formed. In the classroom, students learn to work with each other. Participation in class discussions helps them to discover new ideas of their own and of their classmates’. Pupils find they can take their problems to guidance counselors or faculty for help. The office staff learns to operate smoothly so that the school can be efficiently run. At the end of each day, most stu¬ dents and faculty have faced new prob¬ lems and projects. By working together they have learned to cope with them. A feeling of unity grows in classrooms, among students, throughout the school. Being together every day teaches the value of working with each other to achieve a productive year. A bond be¬ tween the people of Horace Mann is formed and strengthened each day, re¬ sulting in the Brotherhood of Mann. Students take their problems and questions to counselor, Mrs. Bernadette Fissinger. go home, Willie Cambell his locker and puts on In prepanng Student assistants work with staff in the offices to help keep things running efficiently. The school day ends and students who have been together in the Brotherhood of Mann go their separate ways toward home. Human relations meetings draw many inter¬ ested students and faculty. 6 Mayor Hatcher and the Reverend Thomas Hunt hold discussion at a human relations meeting. Contributions to education made by social activities Experiences shared at Horace Mann have their social side. Student enthusi¬ asm and participation help build school spirit. Mutual enjoyment of a play or dance creates confidence in staging events. Faculty and prominent city leaders meet to discuss problems with students and to learn their views. Pride in Horace Mann’s appearance leads to painting classrooms, putting in new ceilings, placing garbage in waste paper cans. Without this, the year would be incom¬ plete, a total education lacking. In the future, a handshake following recognition of a familiar face will re¬ call memories. “Remember the times we shared, the people we knew, our mutual hopes and dreams; remember being a part of the Brotherhood of Mann?” The ROTC drill team entertains students in the auditorium during the SOS fund-raising drive. Varsity and reserve cheerleaders lead the crowd in cheers during the homecoming football game. School Life Style says wigs, boots go to school A variety of wigs is modeled by Mary Tarkane, Pam Carter, Debbie Cinder, and Marsha Morris. Student “get it together” this year with new fads. Hemlines were long, medium and short; brightly colored ponchos were in; gaucho pants were in; chokers were in; and high style boots and shoes appeared. For decoration, girls wore snoods in their hair. For outdoors, matching scarfs and haU accented the mini and midi coats. Snoods are a new sight in fashion at Mann this year. Becky Huerta is wearing one that she knitted herself. Discussing the next date for the basketball game, Phyllis Ashmore and Pat Flores are caught in the picture wearing gaucho pants. Matching scarfs, hats, and mittens helped fight the cold during winter months. Augusta Ware, Pat Flores, Valencia Seay, Doris Duncan, and Pam Barnett wear chokers, a new fad this year, to complete their everyday apparel with touches of color. Mary Tarkane, wearing a fake fur coat in mini length, converses with Helen Sormaz and Becky Huerta who prefer the longer styles of maxi and midi lengths. Gazing out the window, Jerralyn Shootes de¬ cides that her poncho will be suitable to pro¬ tect her from the spring winds. Dr. Grigsby discusses with Cathie Predaina, Pat Tonevich, Mary Jean Kennedy, Millie Ivankovich, Helen Sormaz, and Pat Wisneski their everyday apparel of vests and blue jeans. Boots are not only for bad weather, but for fashion too. They vary from wrinkled leather to crushed suede in black, brown and white, fastening with buckles, laces and zippers. 12 Seniors see light on school from teacher’s side of desk Usually off limits to students, the teachers’ lounge was popular with neo¬ phyte teachers as 156 seniors took charge of classes and administrative offices. Traditional Senior Day activities took place November 20 when students received first-hand experience in lesson planning, conducting class discussions and coping with discipline problems. Supervised by Mrs. Barbara Loy, se¬ niors were given teaching assignments in preferred subjects. Problems encountered during senior teaching day are discussed in the teachers’ lounge by Gaye Herrold, Ruth Narvaez, Robin Marcus, James Johnson and Debby Troxell. Chester Elliot tests the electrical conductivity of various solutions in chemistry. “Calling roll is the easiest part of this job,” thinks senior P.E. teacher Jean Byron. “Don’t get smart with me,” says Edwina Adams, flourishing her small stick menac¬ ingly. Barbara Powell uses her six years of math trying to aid Richard Vasquez with a problem. Taking Volletta Clark’s temperature, senior LaVerne Goldman proves a capable nurse. Exhausted after teaching five classes, Connie Vaught leans on her typewriter for support. 13 Conflict in modern play seen close-up Adjusting to small audiences, Drama club chose a play with a small cast and intimate action and made room for their patrons on stage. Similar to fashionable theater-in-the-round, the ar¬ rangement solved voice projection prob¬ lems for the actors and brought the audience near to the quiet interplay of personality among performers. “The Member of the Wedding” fo¬ cused on entanglement and search for identity of three people: Frankie Adams, played by Becky Guy; Bernice Sadie Brown, motherly confidante, acted by Marsha Morris; and John Henry West, performed by Robert Curtis. Two matinees and two evening per¬ formances were necessary to accommo¬ date audiences in the limited space available for seating. The unique set was built by members of the club with sev¬ eral unusual props obtained from In¬ diana University Northwest Campus and Wirt high school. Lighting was ar¬ ranged by Bob Miller and Charlie Davis. John Henry (Robert Curtis) lets Bernice (Marsha Morris) listen to the ocean in his Frankie (Becky Guy), Bernice (Marsha Morris), and John Henry (Robert Curtis) discuss Bernice’s past husbands as they eat their evening dinner. 14 Cast Bernice Sadie Brown—Marsha Morris Frankie Adams—Becky Guy John Henry West—Robert Curtis Mr. Adams—Bob Forszt Mrs. West—Mary Tarkane Sis Laura Thompson—Nettie Mae Webb Helen Fletcher—Laura Sosa Barney McKean—Tom Sangerman Janis—Nancy Norton Jarvis—Frank Merced Frankie (Becky Guy) hysterically raves about the life she will have with her brother and sister-in-law as Bernice (Marsha Morris) pa¬ tiently tries to calm her.

Romaine Ostrowski looks very pleased after receiving her long-awaited diploma as Charles Parrish is next in line. Dr. A. D. Holliday awards Derek Gaither a diploma and offers his congratulations. 36 Academics State adoptions update mathematics study Every five years in Indiana, commif- tees of teachers examine textbooks and select new ones on the basis of pre- agreed-upon criteria. Mathematics courses had their turn this year, the old books being discarded for newly- adopted ones. After being stamped “withdrawn,” outdated books were given to students for reference and home study. Seniors were the last class at Mann to study analytical geometry which was part of the four-year accelerated math program. So definitions of focii of el¬ lipses and latus rectums left the curriculum. Juniors continuing in math planned for regular courses. Following the new program, they studied algebraic appli¬ cations, permutations, limits of series and an introduction to vectors, previous¬ ly studied less extensively. r Antoinette Bell endeavors to solve an algebra problem as Mike Spurlock, Curtis Spiller, Frank Miller and Mr. Robert Rhymes observe. Derrick Puckett and Dwight Williams learn to calculate on oversized slide rule in geometry.

Sir Lawrence Olivier and Richard Chamherlain of Dr. Kildare fame played the gloomy Dane on television. Judith Anderson’s production visited West Side school. What gaps remained were filled in for seniors by a four-part movie lec¬ ture. Freshmen acquired background in mythology in addition to reading Great Expectations. Sophomores increased their knowledge of grammar, practiced writing skills, and began class reading of Shakespeare with Julius Caesar and Romeo and Juliet. Eleventh graders found both history and art in their read¬ ing of American literature. Mrs. Delores Knox, teaching seventh and tenth grade English, and Mr. R. D. Lottie instructing in speech, joined the English department. Mrs. Geraldine Nel¬ son replaced Miss Janine Czarnecki who was on leave from her post as junior librarian. Examining Plato ' s Republic from the Great Books Series, Mike Sendak, James Johnson, and Irving Sawyers take time from Miss Monnix’ English IVX class to visit the senior library. Julius Caesar, played by Ermine Lowe, is slain by Steve Patterson, Levone Grayson, and Mary Ortiz in a dramatization of Julius Caesar in Miss Vossos’ sophomore English class. Language study eased by comics, tapes Foreign language courses brought stu¬ dents closer to the customs and culture of countries which they studied. Text¬ books, movies which related dialogue to action, and tapes made by students provided ways to use the languages. Advanced German class produced a play Die drei Wunsche, (The Three Wishes), which gave practice in speak¬ ing. Members of the cast were Milan Andrejevich as a farmer, Sonja Bradish as his wife, Chester Elliott, their son, and Debbie Ginder as the fairy granting the wishes. Comic strips featuring French dia¬ logue allowed French students practice at everyday language. Collages arranged on ptoster hoard and studies in French art furnished opportunities for enlarg¬ ing vocabulary. Latin classes had a delegate at the source of their language. Arlene Sharpe spent Easter vacation in Rome. Pins bearing the motto “Caesar’s dead but Latin lives” were worn by students of the Gallic wars. Spanish classes, in addition to speak¬ ing and reading widely, sang Spanish songs and translated Spanish stories into English.

Independent study in Econ, Government Independent study in American Gov¬ ernment and Economics was new to the Social Studies department. Taught by Mr. William Stern, the program includ¬ ed writing term papers dealing with topics of interest. Seven students took the course first semester; the enrollment increased to thirteen for Economics sec¬ ond term. Participants wrote two papers and ful¬ filled required reading for each course. The Economics final examination was based on The Worldly Philosophers, read independently. Students found that utilizing the scheduled class hour for their prepara¬ tion kept them abreast of their work. These aspiring paper-writers took full advantage of the encouragement they received to vary source materials by utilizing law journals, old magazines and letters for their research. Interviews with candidates for local offices proved valu¬ able sources for papers relating to com¬ munity problems. Mr. Ricard prepares his class to listen for certain points in Pamela White’s Government report. Sonja Bradash and Sherri Harles time re¬ actions while performing a psychology experi- Carol Neal studies diligently, preparing an independent study term paper in Economics.

Ad¬ vanced speech classes examined tech¬ niques of public speaking and plays more thoroughly. Students also prac¬ ticed persuasive speaking. Oral inter¬ pretation exercises were used to improve acting skills. In art classes sculpture, painting and printing were part of regular courses. Advanced students painted self-portraits, constructed contest posters and com¬ pleted a mural of school life. Thirty-five artists participated in the painting of the mural. Different types of music were studied by singing and listening to records. Junior Choir was instrumental in train¬ ing for the regular choir.

S3 As part of their special study time replacing first hour English, Claudia Bamhouse, Sandy Kaplan and Mary Tarkane discuss articles from the Great Books series in the library. Carrels provide library study areas Essential to all school work, the senior library served as locale for research, fun reading, discussion and mathematics classroom during refurbishing of second floor rooms. Carrels given by last year’s seniors provided seclusion for concentrated study. The addition of the Great Books series made this collection available. Li¬ brary services, directed by Miss Leota Janes included instruction in technical aspects of finding books by using the Dewey Decimal system. Fourteen stu¬ dent assistants helped with issuing ma¬ terials. Miss Ernette Lewis, new at Hor¬ ace Mann this year, had charge of the library office and clerical duties. Penny Williams finds the card catalog useful in locating needed information. The library carrel provides a secluded place for Miss Fritz to prepare her science curriculum. 54 -A Listening abilities stressed in Developmental Reading Individual developmental reading classes, taught by Mrs. Donna Mills, stressed the value of listening abilities. The relationship between good listening habits and reading skills was explored as Mrs. Mills read stories aloud to her classes. The students were required to sit quietly and answer rather detailed questions pertaining to the story just heard. As the students became more attentive, their reading abilities im¬ proved. Other techniques such as group dis¬ cussion, individual conferences, and use of equipment including shadow- scopes aided pupils in achieving better reading skills. Esther Ferran holds reading time cards which tell students the amount of time elapsed dur¬ ing each assignment. Developmental reading students make use of equipment located in individual booths. I 55 Competition earns units for gymnasts During girls’ gym classes, many advanced swimmers use the pool to practice the kneeling dive. Required to have a unit in gym, underclassmen reported daily for physi¬ cal training. Girls raced for hair dryers after swimming lessons and exercised in a freezing court while the boys strove to get to one hundred push-ups and to stand on their heads. High school requisites include four se¬ mesters of gym. Gasses, consisting main¬ ly of freshmen and sophomores, varied their semesters of recreation by using the pool, gym, weight room, track, courts and outdoor fields. The girls used their time for marching drills, folk and social dancing, tumbling, volleyball, basketball, skill tests and coordination tests with bamboo sticks, exercising to music, and synchronized swimming. Explaining a volleying technique, Mrs. Za- naida Hunt instructs a seventh grade gym Executing a pyramid formation are: top to bottom, left to right; Rick Fontanez, Louis Ramos, Stanko Katie, Keith Browder, Leonard Russel, Alfonso Tuggle, James Anderson. 56 Upper classmen punch clock at Tech school Fifty-five Horace Mann students en¬ rolled for half-day instruction at Gary’s Technical-Vocational Center.

Classes in radio broadcasting, data processing, market¬ ing and horticulture were attended by both boys and girls. Punctuality was stressed by the use of time clocks in many of the class¬ rooms. “Punching in” contributed a businesslike atmosphere to classes be¬ sides accustoming students to using time cards. Qualifications for attending the school were: sixteen years of age; junior or senior classification at the home school. Many of the courses had other specific prerequisites. Practicing combing techniques, important to the beauty shop employee, Belinda Lopez ex¬ plains the process to Theresa Linde.

Paying their own fares, which were decreased by a small subsidy from club funds, Sharmayne Porter, Diethrice Taylor. Rhonda Williams, Yvonne Vaught, Dor¬ een Gunn, Richard Knight and Debra Clay heard French spoken in Paris. Car washes, odd jobs at homes in the area, and the ever-present bake .sales kept club members working at fund¬ raising. Miss Sally Jones, sponsor of the group and chaperone on the trip, screened travel agencies for the bar¬ gains in sight-seeing. Meetings, held on Mondays, were pre¬ sided over by Sharmayne Porter. Other officers were Milka Sormaz, vice-presi¬ dent; Otto Miller, secretary, and James Johnson, treasurer. Pan-Americans hold dinner as climax of year’s events Dorothy Hernandez conducts a meeting in front of Spanish Club members. Sharing their enthusiasm for Spanish food, the thirty members of the Pan-Am League hosted their public at a buffet dinner featuring a variety of Latin dishes, such as tostados, enchillados, and fried bananas. The Ambridge Metho¬ dist church dining room, decorated with pihatas, was the scene of the late April party. Appeals for aid from flood victims in Puerto Rico drew a response from the club members and their sponsor, Mrs. Sara Nelson. They gathered approxi¬ mately five hundred pounds of food and clothing for victims of that disaster. Friendship day, another project of the group, offered carnations for sale to persons wishing to symbolize their amiable feelings toward others by wear¬ ing a flower. Dorothy Hernandez was president of the club, Denise Comer, vice president; Arlene Sharpe, secre¬ tary; and Elena Mangual, treasurer.

Latins help Ecology club recycle cans Far from being only dead-language scholars, Latin clubbers joined Ecology club in challenging a problem of the modern world—pollution. Both groups searched the community for discarded tin cans to be recycled. Inductees achieved membership by being auctioned as slaves to masters who had previously belonged to the group. Servitude, consisting of errands and small favors, lasted until slaves were freed at holiday time. Mid-winter holidays to these noble Romans was marked by the observance of Saturnalia, at which the Manu¬ mission ceremony awarding individual freedom to slaves was performed. The feast, to which members came dressed in togas, was authentic even to the Latin custom of recumbent posture for dining. “Who will buy this slave?” asks Michael Gault as he tries to sell Lamon Coops at the annual Latin Club slave auction. Barbara Webb, Doreen Frymire, Grace Fields and Michaeline Smolinski practice their Latin monologues, as Derrick Anderson lights a candle for induction at Saturnalia.

Picnicking on long German wieners roasted over an open fire and watermelon, the group ended the feast with toasted marsh¬ mallows. A day of fun included hiking, swimming, rowing, paddleboating, fish¬ ing and playing several ball games. To replenish their treasury, members organized a Christmas candle sale which netted them more than a hundred dol¬ lars. Myra Landrum took charge of sales. Chester Elliott was high salesman, sell¬ ing three dozen candles. In the spirit of the season they studied and sang Christ¬ mas carols in German.

New constitution, tourneys, help rebuild Mann’s chess Chess club underwent a “rebuilding” year. Officially the organization had ceased to exist, necessitating a new con¬ stitution. A nucleus of seniors including Gordon Evans, Chester Elliott, Joy Mc¬ Duffie and Clifford Kraft provided the impetus. They kept the club active by holding competitions with other schools without official sanction. An influx of seventh and eighth graders brought hope of new strength. Lack of experience caused elimina¬ tion of interschool competitions. Ex¬ planation of tournament rules and their practice in club competition occupied time in after-school sessions. However, practice benefited members of the club in providing needed playing experience. Vanessa Davis discovers her chess game against Mr. Kozubal requires deep concentration.

Council seeks sets elections, Student Council fought against rising apathy to achieve results in a difficult year. A successful SOS drive highlighted the year’s achievements as some tradi¬ tional activities fell by the wayside. Particular evidence of the apathy was the difficulty in obtaining a quorum at meetings. As a result, the legislative com¬ mittee introduced a motion limiting the for quorum, social events number of members to forty students, limiting representatives to those truly interested in taking part in activities. Other events held this year were the faculty tea, school elections, bulletin board decoration, student exchange with several high schools and the ice cream social. 77 New girls’ club, Y-Chicas, initiates forty A new club, Y-Chicas, started off the year with a membership of forty. The organization was designed exclusively for high school girls. The girls’ year consisted of three ac¬ tivities. Helping decorate the Children’s room of Mercy Hospital, the girls made a variety of ornaments.

Two se¬ niors, three sophomores and two fresh¬ men girls marched dutifully at all band performances. As guidon captain Rachael Merced put it, “The few girls we did have worked their hearts out and we really ac¬ complished a lot.” The main job of the guidons was to march alongside the hand and to direct its pace. They often skipped lunch hour to practice with the band. Tryouts are held at the beginning of each school year. Charity week suceessful; money aids needy students Horace Mann Student Council’s seven day drive turned in more than six hun¬ dred dollars to support continuing edu¬ cation for needy students. Activities were sponsored by the four high school classes competing to make the largest contribution. Freshmen planned an after-school dance for seventh and eighth graders. Sophomores collected admission to a volleyball game between tenth grade girls and women faculty. Junior boys challenged male faculty members to a basketball game which drew a sizeable paying audience. Putting gifted classmates on stage in Talent Show, seniors found thev had the most profitable project, tallying $125 from the afternoon program. The four high school classes kept bake sales going every day. At the charity dance, also council-sponsored, Mr. Big- Man-On-Campus, James Johnson, was crowned for selling the most votes. Here luck ran out. At the pie eating contest, pies, instead of being donated, had to be purchased. When a pie-throw¬ ing pandemonium developed, no winner was announced. The paper drive failed to realize a large profit because the truck used to haul papers broke down. Relying on private cars for transporta¬ tion, students recycled only nineteen dol¬ lars worth of paper. Mr. Herman Borders and Mr. James Andrews supervise Derrick Puckett’s collection of SOS money from Sharmayne Porter. During the pie eating contest, Curtis Spiller discovers that it’s not too easy to eat pies with your hands behind your back.

New Ecology club spurs clean-up activity To show concern for the environment a group of students organized the Ecology Club. Though not officially chartered at the end of the year, the club submitted its constitution to Stu¬ dent Council. A five-member board Jill Edwards records the number of slogan pins sold as Milan Andrejevich and Becky Reuter keep count. made up of officers headed the group. The club sponsored several clean-up projects. The first activity was a can¬ collecting contest in which the winner, Kathy Sangerman, received five dollars. Other club activities were selling of anti-pollution pins and inspection of the school for trash. Officers were Velda Stanton, Jill Ed¬ wards, Becky Reuter, Milan Andreje¬ vich and John Zembillas. 89 Quill and Scroll publishes school story Quill and Scroll, an honorary jour¬ nalism club, continued its existence at Horace Mann. This year members took full advantage of the benefits of the or¬ ganization such as using information from the magazine received by members for their publication activities.

Safety patrol mishap-free for 17 years Directing traffic at five posts, Safety Patrol began its seventeenth accident- free year. Before school, during lunch hours, and after school, high school boys directed traffic in dangerous pedestrian rights-of-way. These young guardians wore fluorescent orange belts over school clothes and were attired in bright red raincoats during stormy weather. The roster of students performing this service for the school was captained by Derrick Anderson. Besides just perform¬ ing their patrol duties, the force held meetings and occasionally took educa¬ tional tours complementing their activities.

The nine-member staff served the school with controversial edi¬ torials, features and news of club, class and social activities. A personal interest column called Did You Know? written by Paula Wil¬ son, was new to this year’s readers. In addition to publishing the paper, the staff wrote a resume of the school’s offerings to potential Mann students for the Administration. Editor-in-chief was Barbara Powell; news editors were Demetra Apostol and Linda Magee; Jane Gaebe wrote fea¬ tures and managed circulation. Sports editor was Claudia Barnhouse and re¬ porters were Paula Wilson, Fred Fedorchak and John Hayduk. 92 Front row (backs to camera): Sports editor Claudia Bamhouse; feature editor Jane Gaebe; Fred Fedorchak.

This lack of supply gave Man¬ nual staff a rough time in the mone¬ tary department. Chief innovation in this year’s book, aside from usual type changes, was us e of individual freshman and sophomore pictures. Trying to meet deadlines were Mary Jean Kennedy, editor; Pat Wisneski, business manager; Romaine Ostrowski, layout editor; Cathy Predaina, index editor; Mary Tarkane, copy editor, and Derek Gaither, working his second year as photographer. Others helping on the staff were Cliff Kraft, Becky Huerta, Pam Luna, Rubin Maldonado, Larry Rosen, Jerry Kaster, Millie Ivankovich, John Serwatka, and Becky Guy.

Sports 0-Rama ends in deadlock; Mann scores South points Opening the 1971 football season, the fifteenth annual Football-O-Rama teamed Mann, West Side and Lew Wal¬ lace for South and Emerson, Roosevelt and Wirt played as North team, each school playing a quarter per half. In the first half, senior Rodney Freeman ran a 69-yard touchdown leading the Horse¬ men to a 6-0 victory over Emerson, this being South’s only score. Before the game began, senior Sandy Christakis was named Football-O-Rama queen and escorted by Mike Sangerman to receive her crown. Five girls com¬ peted, selling tickets in order to re¬ ceive the title of queen. Sandy sold 700 tickets. The court consisted of runner- up Pam Luna, Linda Williams, An¬ toinette Williams and Pam Mullins. Coach Webb assures students of a win against rival Lew Wallace.

Thrill of the sea¬ son took little more than seven minutes of the last quarter when Webb’s men overcame Noll, forging a 27-6 deficit into a final score of 34-33. Beating Roosevelt 13-12 in the first game, Mann set a pattern for the season with two touchdowns by Lafayette Mitchell in the last three minutes. A set¬ back at Hammond Gavit, 27-25, followed as penalties stopped a potential winning drive. Defense came through strongly in later contests, enabling Webb’s men to outscore rival Wallace 25-12. After matching state-ranked Andrean’s first three touchdowns, the team fell 40-21. The Noll game followed, ending the first half of the season with a winning record. With added confidence proved in the Noll game, the team outclassed River Forest in a 54-20 rout. Mann continued to exceed expectation as the Horsemen prevailed over Wirt 20-16. Homecoming was successful when Mann beat Emer¬ son 20-0 as the defense yielded only 54 yards. An upset by West Side 28-6 marred the second half of the season. Partially redeeming themselves against Portage, 20-6, the regular defense held the In¬ dians scoreless, but the reserves gave up a last-minute touchdown.

Pam Hileman and Cheryl Harris voluntarily made red cu¬ lottes for each of the varsity cheerlead¬ ers to wear during basketball season. Cheerleaders, selected on the basis of tryouts, were Captain Claudia Barn- house, Cheryl Harris, Pam Hileman, Mary Tarkane, Pat Tonevich, and Paula Wilson. Reserve cheerleaders were Cap¬ tain Lori Waiss, Anita Bell, Debby Clay, and Pam Mullins. Practice was every Monday after school in the girls’ gym, supervised by Miss Christine Collins. At the end of the school year cheerleaders with a year’s experience received megaphone neck¬ laces presented by Booster Club.

Punch and cookies appropriate to the season were served from a decorated table. In addition to one dollar membership dues, GAA’s treasury was expanded by the sale of red and white Horace Mann decals and after-school bake sales. Girls chose captains who organized teams in basketball, volleyball and wall- ball. Free-style swimming sessions were held on Mondays.

Dur¬ ing their fourth year as timers, the girls worked at eight scheduled meets and the final city meet, where all Gary Public high schools competed. At the first meeting of the season. Coach Elbert Carnahan, swimming coach, presented three-year members Cathie Predaina and Becky Huerta with Horace Mann letters, making them the first girls to letter in sports.

Golfers face big schedule; end with sad 1-12 record Led by four returning lettermen, G)ach Jack Hobbs’ squad brought in a dismal 1-12 record. The golf team faced a heavy schedule this year, including meets with thirteen schools, an invita¬ tional tournament and the city meet. Inclement weather and problems with ineligibility also hampered the golfers’ chances for a successful season. Seniors James Ashbaugh, captain Fred Fedorchak, Bob Forszt, junior Dave Fogler, and sophomore Dave Flora rounded out the varsity squad. David Fogler blasts out of a sand trap toward the green.

The cagers had a 6-2 record before losing a close game to West Side in the second round of the mid-season tournament. After the Christmas break the Horse¬ men beat Chesterton before beginning a losing streak. During the next several games the team stayed in competition for most of their games only to fall behind in last quarters. As a result they ended the regular season with a 1-7 record, a lone victory over Hebron the only bright spot. The conference record was 1-5, a tie for last place. Terry Martin’s outstand¬ ing play led the team; he topped the conference in scoring with 165 points. A victory over Andrean in sectionals raised hopes but a stall failed to stop West Side. Jumping at center, Terry Martin tips the ball toward Mann’s goal for a good start. Edward Davies and Derrick Anderson record scores for the Horace Mann vs Portage game, a disaster.

Outstanding records of 5-2 were netted by captain Robert Forszt and a veteran doubles team consisting of Cliff Kraft and Rick Isaac. These two consistent winners combined with an outstanding effort by returning lettermen Dean Barnes, Chuck Parrish and Jim Ash- baugh to obtain a winning record. Also lettering for the first time this year were John Serwatka, Phil Ellinwood and Tim Hillman. Despite losses to tough An- drean, Wallace and Wirt, an above .500 season was fulfilled with conference vic¬ tories over Roosevelt and West Side, and victories over neighboring teams from River Forest and Merrillville.

Serving his first year as base¬ ball coach, Mr. John Ector commented that the record did not represent the team. Led by John Vaughn and Angel Val¬ entin, the Horsemen’s offense attack outshone defensive play. John Vaughn and Angel Valentin scored 84 points each and received trophies for excellence in offensive play. Valentin placed second in the Northwest Conference batting title. Starting with a string of six losses, Mann then downed Hobart 6-4 and Emerson 8-2. The rest of the victories were scattered as the Horsemen ended the season with a 5-15 record counting their sectional loss to Andrean.

With Mr. Rufus Harris and Mr. John Petrou, Dr. Grigsby shared the search for solutions to overcrowded, under¬ funded education. Mr. Harris returned for his third year, having responsibility for student programming, student activities, honor organizations, budgeting for supplies and attendance. Mr. Petrou was a new face on the staff. Formerly assistant principal at Wirt, he was in charge of discipline in grades 7 and 8, supplementary service budgeting and student accounting in¬ cluding report cards and data process¬ ing of grades. Offices were switched. Dr. Grigsby taking the small east office and making available the more spacious west office for work on student files, attendance and distribution of grades. Mr. Petrou locates a student card from the office files for Mr. Harris. 118 Board tries accountability probes voucher attendance Attracting nation-wide attention, the school trustees transferred a public grade school to the control of a Cali¬ fornia corporation, Behavioral Research Laboratory, for three years’ instruction guaranteed to raise educational levels. Banneker school thereby became the first public school in the nation to be taken over by private enterprise on a guaranteed performance basis. BRL promised to have students working at accepted national standards in three years or to refund 82,400 to the school city for each non-performer. Difficulties and strike threats oc¬ curred as complaints arose over lack of state-adopted textbooks, improper pupil- teacher ratios, involuntary teacher trans¬ fers, use of unlicensed personnel, and changes in school administratio n. Ban¬ neker was briefly decommissioned by the state, but accreditation was later restored. Led by Superintendent Gordon Mc- Andrew, the school board initiated a study in school organization methods by inquiring into a voucher plan of at¬ tendance for Gary children. This ar¬ rangement would provide parents with redeemable coupons to pay for their children’s education in any school in the public school system. If, after exam¬ ination, the scheme seemed workable, the school city could apply for demon¬ stration grants from the US Office of Education. Superintendent Gordon L.

Seniors live in tnrmoil of school scene In its first high school year the present senior class proved its ingenuity with an original money-making project, sell¬ ing zip code books. Seven minute home¬ rooms and four minute passing periods created hectic schedules. An outing at Indiana Beach amuse¬ ment park, opened solely for the class provided a highlight of the sophomore year. As juniors the class had a nine¬ teen day vacation resulting from a teachers’-strike. The strike’s effects were felt later on as a week of spring vacation was cancelled and school lasted an extra five days into the summer. During the senior year a partially united class resulted in a slight renewal of school spirit. Attempts made to over¬ come problems created by school boundary changes during the previous three years of the class’ existence were successful. Events such as homecoming and SOS week found renewed support from senior class members. A human relations semi¬ nar resulting from revived initiative and ingenuity included a class outing to Gii- cago. Senior officers were president, James Johnson; vice president, Derek Gaither; secretary, Edwina Adams; treasurer, Barbara Powell. Senior class representatives: Front row: Barbara Powell, Albert Davis, Terri Spiller. Second row: JoAnn Landrum, James Johnson, Edwina Adams. Third row: Linda Mapee, Vanessa Floyd.

Good luck! wiimw energy to enjoy exciting todays and build better tomorrows Nortihenn Indiana Public Service Gcmpany Tke Art of Frying Ckiclien The gentle art of frying chicken in a heavenly manner is given to but a few persons on this earth. Some mothers can do it. A few chefs can be mentioned. But. the true artists of this profession are, amazingly enough, high school boys! Trained for months and months by Chuck Wheeler himself, these fortunate young men learn to turn out the tender, golden crusted, delicately-seasoned chicken in perfect batch after batch, around the clock from 11 a.m. until 11 p.m., seven days a week. Many of them earn college money in this manner. Constant dedication to the goal of perfect fried chicken is a wonderful character builder and a lesson in modern methods, combined with an old-fashioned appre¬ ciation of flavors and the human ingredient. When you enjoy Kentucky Fried Chicken from Chuck Wheeler’s, you know the tenderness, flavor, and perfection of each piece of chicken is no accident. Chuck planned it that way.

The bulk of the book was done by this year’s staff. Many people aided the staff in compiling these 168 pages, by doing such varied jobs as fixing typewriter tables as did Mr. Frank Roman or lending us acetone for pictures as Mr. Kozubal did. Identifica¬ tion of people in pictures is always a problem. We called frequently on Mrs. Elsie Mellick, Mrs. June Miller, Mrs. Mary Anagnos, Miss Leota Janes, Mrs. Inez Harris, Mrs. Joyce Thomas, and Mrs. Bernadette Fissinger. The office staff, especially Mrs. Charlyce Hunt helped keep our financial matters straightened out. Our sponsor, Mrs. Genevieve Ernst gave more than her share of time, work, and worry. She was always there with the right answers to give assistance when needed. Mr. Dick Kennard, representative from Newsfoto Yearbooks, gladly gave ideas and help. Whenever we ran into trouble, he was willing to fly in from Indianapo¬ lis to lend assistance. This year’s book had a special mean¬ ing as many of the pictures were taken by Mr. Harry Bortz. Mr. Bortz had been a friend and a tremendous help to our staff as he had been to many throughout the school and city. We could always count on Mr. Bortz to be at our important events, to take quality pictures, and to give imaginative sug¬ gestions. He will be missed not only as a photographer, but as a good friend and generous person. Although troubled with her husband’s illness Mrs. Bortz spent many, many hours working on pictures for the yearbook. She often went out of her way to do pictures for us and never once turned down any of our work although she certainly had the right to do so. To Mrs. Bortz and her family we give our unlimited apprecia¬ tion and thanks. Gary Photo Company developed hundreds of pictures as they have for several years. Their willingness and cooperation calls for a special thank-you. I’m sure there are quite a few people whose services I should have acknowl¬ edged but they would fill many pages. To all those who so generously gave their time and assistance we give our thanks for helping to make this a “Brotherhood of Mann”. Mary Jean 1971 Mannual Staff Editor in chief . ..
