Editorial Staff Business Staff Reporters and Typists Black and Gold Flash In the fall of '48 we iind 30 seniors industriously working to put out their first newspaper. The first people we see as we approach are Charlene Smith, Editor. and Bob Horstmeyer, Associate Editor. Les Thomas, advertlsing manager and his assistants, Sally Whan and Iunior Houser. are on their way out to get ads. As we enter the typing roorn we find Ed Meyers, Pat Kelham, Betty Phillips, Don Smith, Bob Lutter, Mary Freeman, Imogene Barhydt, Ruth Opliger, and Barbara Mackey, the reporters and typists, faithfully pounding typewriters to get their stories in on time. We find in one corner Betty Fritz, News Editor and Phyllis Hurst, her assistant, arranging the front page of the Black and Gold Flash. We also see Norma Stirlen, Feature Editor, and her assistant, Lois Longenecker, writing feature stories and making up the feature page. The Art Editor, Romona Howard, is drawing some of those cute cartoons you see. As we leave the typing room we meet Ioan Schenher, Grades Editor, coming in with the grade news. Down the hall we see Bertha Ernerich, Gossip Editor, and her assistant, lean Shank, listening to a con- versation from which they hope to obtain some gossip. As we go past the gym we see lack McComb. Sports Editor, and Martha Dice. his assistant, trying to get some information from coach, Terry Coonan. At last the paper is off to press. When it comes back it will be distributed by Phil Dickes, Circula' tion Manager and George Dunten, his assistant. The proceeds will go to Clem Wetzel, Business manager and his assistant Sherry Witham, to be counted. It's quite a long story from the time the reporters get the first stories until the paper reaches the hands of the H. H. S. students, but by keeping busy and working hard these 30 seniors have made possible the Black and Gold Flash for 1948-49. BLACK AND GOLD FLASH STAFF FRONT ROW: B. Emrich, I. Schenher, R. Howard, I.

Band Heading the band this year we see Phil Dickes as President, Iean Shank as Vice-President, Pat Kelham as Secretary and Treasurer and Mr. Sloiier, our able Music Director. Last fall, the band played at the Decatur Halloween Festival and was awarded second prize which amounted to thirty-live dollars. The band played for the Woodburn Day Celebration, Farmers Institute, PTA Festival and of course the basketball games. It maneuvered for six of the games with the best periormance for the Churubusco game December the tenth. Santa Claus and his reindeer came out onto the floor and stopped on an imaginary rooi top. Santa got out oi his sleigh and slid down the chimney to put presents in the stockings that were hanging on the fireplace. While this was going on, the band played Christmas songs. The band entered the annual Band Festival held at New Haven this year. It played Men In Gray, Two Moods, and Scepter oi Liberty, The music produced by the band has been somewhat different this year. The Kid Grows Up, a novelty number, Hair of Gold, a popular tune, and March of the Toys, an overture were among the most interesting musical numbers during the past year. There are seven students completing their senior year in the band. They are George Dunten, Paul Gause, Patricia Kelham, Iunior Houser, Phil Dickes, Clem Wetzel and Iean Shank. 35
