Marjorie Bayless was chosen Vice-President, Liliosa Eisenhauer, Secretary; Gertrude Peting, Treasurer, and Miss Hoff- man, Advisor. The first social event of the year was a weiner niast at Memorial Park after the football game with Logansport. A Christmas party was held on December 19. A pantumine, And the Lamp Went Out, was presented by the following girls: Marjorie Ha} ' Iess, Catherine Lengel, Jane Griffith, Dorothy Craft, and Mamie Lesh. The Seniors and especially the Cast set an example for future classes when they presented The Thirteenth Chair, February 9 and 10. I ' his was not onh ' a great success artistically but also financial!) ' . The class took in more money than any previous class. By the untiring efforts of Miss Taylor and Miss Rupert, imder the supervision of Arthur J. Beriault of Indianapolis, the play went over in the best of form. The Cast was entertained b} ' the Hi-Y in the club rooms a few days following the presentation of the play. The Class entertained the Cast on April 13 at a dinner at the Elks Home, following this the Cast motored to Lagro where The Thirteenth Chair was presented by the Lagro Class, thus seeing themselves as others saw them. The class has not failed in anything that the ' ha ' e undertaken, and with Miss Hoifman as Advisor throughout its organization in school it enjoyed an unusually successful high school career.

Bolinger Bowlin Brahs Brewer Brickley Bridge Brown The Junior Class of 1927-1 928 was organized early in the fall semester with the election of officers taking place. Jeanne Felton was elected Pres- ident of the class. She was Recording Secretary of the Sunshine Society and has been active in other branches of school activities. The others who were elected were as follows: Jack Barn- hisel, Vice-President; Betty King, Sec- retary; and Benjamin Ahlschwede, Treasurer. Miss Taylor was elected Class Advisor. At this meeting the committees were chosen, and plans were made for the social and the business activities of the year. The Juniors have shown fine co- operation this year in all their under- takings. Despite the fact that they lost the sale of candy at toin nament time, in the halls, and at the carnival, the) ' have made as much monev as any class due to the sale of candy at s:ames and the sponsoring of movies. The members of the class were en- tertained at a Hallowe ' en party in October. It was the first social func- tion of the Juniors and was well attended. The club rooms were dec- orated with huge stalks of corn and Hallowe ' en colors of orange and black. Mrs. Ernest Stults, who is known to the high school students as the ladv who tells fortunes, appeared in her usual style and proved to be one of the main features of the evening. Fol- lowing the grand march various types of stunts were given and prizes were awarded to the winners. XXVII Juniors Left Center Right liui-liheit.

An interesting feature of the election is the fact that only one girl was elected to office. Officers elected were: Rex Rudicel, President; Max Potts, Vice-President; Joe Shock, Secre- tary; and Lois Swihart, Treasurer. Jack Brown was later elected to hold the position of secretary yacated by Joe Shock. The Sophomores eyidenth ' chose to be the first class to honor a man to act as class advisor when they chose Gordon Cook. A Christmas part ' was held by the Sophomores Wednesday, December 21, in the club rooms. An enormous grab- bag was an item on the program that caused much merriment.

McCabe Day ----- Faculty Advisor Page XLVIII MCMXXVIll MODULUS -Miui ' ir Kline Day WITH the idea of producing a different type of annual this ear, the Modulus Staff was organized and began work at once. The theme of the entire book was based on the name Modulus which is of Latin derivation. The co ' er is of an entirely new design and is perhaps the most elaborate ever to have been used in Huntington High School. The art work carried out h - Burl Chalmers corresponded with the cover and was used from the Latin which made it entirely different from other years. All organization and athletic pictures were taken and tlevelopeil by Mr. Day who used the school camera purchased in 1927. This was the first year in the history of the hook that the advertising was omitted. This was done through the co-operation of the business men and by the use of the little blue receipt books in which each student was supposed to ha ' e all his purchases recorded. Another new idea was carried out this year in the form of pupil ' s subscriptions. Instead of paying the price all at once for the Modulus subscription, pupils were permitted to pay for their copies through the school bank. By signing a contract at the first of the year, the students could bank the rate of six cents each week, and this paid for their subscriptions. This was found to be very successful since it made the price easier to meet, and more pupils could afford copies. This year ' s staff attempted to cimtinue the high standard set by the aimual of 1927 which won a silver loving cup for first place in its division in the contest con- ducted bv the Indiana High School Press Association, and All-American ranking in the judging of the Scholastic Editor contest.

Winklemaii AN issue everv week of the school year, several special editions, and a larger regular issue were among the achievements of the Journalism Department in the editing and publishing of The School World during the year. Third place was awarded the publication by the Indiana High School Press Association in the contest of 1926-1927, and All-American honors in the contest conducted by the Scholastic Editor. The same high standard was held by the Staff this year, and manv improvements were made. Joe Sowerwine, Advertising Manager, achieved an honor for the Department when his entry in the National Advertising Contest conducted by Quill and Scroll won first place. The advertisement was written and sold by Joe, and was consid- ered the best among the entries from the three hundred chapters of the society. A new position, that of General Manager, was created during the second semester for Helen Miles in recognition of her excellent supervision of the work of publication. Helen was largely responsible for the improved appearance of the paper because of her untiring efforts in overseeing the makeup. The editorial page acquired an improved tone and character under Lena John- son, and several new features were added. The business matters were efficiently handled during the year b ' Ilo Plasterer. The advertising in the paper evidenced that the merchants recognized more than ever the importance of the publication as a medium through which the patron- age of the pupils and parents can be reached. Pagre LI SI;indiiin : ]-trki;ie Maraiidu, King, Craft, Brown, Sands, Mann, Suoverland Sitting: Felton. Coble, Keiff, Beaver UNDER the supervision of Miss Beatrice Brown, tlie Rostra was published April 24 for the third consecutive year. The papers were distributed during the activity peiiod to all subscribers. The price of the issue was 20 cents. The staff was made up mostly from the Cicero class and included: Redactor Princeps, Jeanne Felton; Administrator Negoti, Hilda Beaver; Recensuit loca, Toy Reift ; Redactor Actorum, Geraldine Coble; and Scriptores: Anne Steiber, Betty King, Marjorie Mann, Alberta Sands, Dorothy Craft, Helen Maranda, Martha Dungan, Charles Bridge, Donald Swoverland, William Scheerer, and Praeceptor, Miss Brown. The Rostra consisted of eight pages including the cover which was designed by Caroline Rose Redrup in 1926. The issue this }ear was composed for the irreater part from the English language and also contained punning riddles, jokes, p;iems, stories, and Roman m ' thologv. Several writeups were given to the S. P. Q. R. Club and the Latin Contest. In 1926 Miss Rub) ' Etter, seeing the possibility of a publication representing the Latin department, originated the idea in Huntington High School, and it has been maintained thus far. The editors in 1927 were Gertrude Peting and Helen Aliles while Lucile Houser was the Business Manager. Miss Etter was the faculty Advisor the two preceding years, while this is the first year for Miss Brown. The success of this year ' s issue lies wholly in the services of Miss Brown. Handicapped by this being her first year as a faculty member of Huntington High School, she has filled her position as Faculty Advisor of the Rostra unusually well.

Lengel, Houser, Adams Lyman Kitt -------- President Margaret Scudder ----- Vice-Preside?it LuciLE Houser -------- Secretary Marjorie Bavless ------ Treasurer ON April 20 the National Honor Society was announced according to the de- cision of the committee in charge. From the class of ' 28 chosen last year were Marjorie Bayless, Lucile Houser, Lena Johnson, Lyman Kitt, and Margaret Scudder. The representatives of the Senior Class this year are: Alice Ditzler, Gertrude Peting, Martha Scudder, Omer Shideler, Burl Chalmers, Oscar Kline, Harold Bailey, George Miller, Catherine Lengel, and Ruth Adams. With the number chosen last year the membership is increased to fifteen students. Those picked from the Junior Class included Benjamin Ahlschwede, Jeanne Felton, Betty King, Velma Parker, Roy Reiff, and William Whitelock. Members are chosen on the basis of scholarship, leadership, school spirit, and character. While acceptable grades are required, honor roll standard is not essential as long as there are qualifications of the other sort that weigh in favor of the can- didate. All the faculty members participate in the nomination of candidates before the final decision is made, and these noininations are considered by a committee of teachers in choosing the members. According to the national constitution it provides that a total of fifteen per cent of the Senior Class and five per cent of the Junior Class may be chosen. Since five members of the ' 28 class were elected last year it left a balance of ten members for this year. The Junior Class numbered 108 so six were selected to make up the five per cent.

H. S. H. S. J., the National Honor Society for High School Journalists. The purpose of the society is to encourage creative work in the joiirnalisin department. To become a member of the organization one must be of the Junior or Senior Class, he must be in the upper third of the class in general scholastic standing, he must have done outstanding work in writing, editing, or business management, and he must be recommended by the supervisor of publications and accepted by the National Secretary-Treasurer of the society. Due to the qualifications and the small number selected for the organization it is rated with the Honor Society. There are three classes of membership: active, faculty, and honorar ' . Early in January the Quill and Scroll was organized for the year 1928. At this time AnnaBelle Utter, Gertrude Peting, Lena Johnson, Helen Miles, and Doroth} ' Mauger were initiated in the society. Liicile Houser was chosen a member while a Junior last year. An election of officers took place after the initiation at the home of Lucile Houser. The local society ' s constitution was drawn up by Lytle Freehafer and Benjamin Kizer of the organization of 1927, and provides for a membership of ten each year. Since there were only six members this year, and since four more were qualified for the society, Virgilius LUheil, Joe Sowerwine, Burl Chalmers, and Ilo Plasterer were initiated the latter part of the year.

Old mis- demeanors were ironed out, and new problems of school discipline were quickl - checked. The principles of the organization are to maintain better standards of school citizenship by allowing the respective members to help in the passing of the school ordinances. These members are representatives elected by the sponsor groups at the beginning of the school term in September. This allows each group to bring through its representative any law or regulation which they may wish to see in action. If the action is of sufficient benefit to the school it is brought up to a vote and a ma- jority brings it into effect. Among the leading steps taken up by the council were those pertaining to the election of yell-leaders and student smoking. This is the first year such action was taken, for formerl - they were elected by the votes of each student. The matter of smoking required the students to be one block distant from the school if they wished to smoke. No doubt the biggest thing done in the first term was the election of the yell- leader, Marjorie Bayless, who worked out a systematic way of leading yells and cheers for the fans. This organization has certainl) ' been an aid to the school because each student felt the responsibility of making the laws and realizes the necessity of obeying them which represents the future democracy of Huntington High School.

During past ears many means have been organized and man} ' schemes perfected in order to secure the proper degree of enthusiasm and pep among the students. This year, the school has been very fortunate in having for this purpose the Booster Club, which has accomplished results that merit the appreciation of all. Gordon Cook sponsored the organization and helped in all its undertakinsis. The charter mernbers were composed of class officers and staffs of the publica- tions. These persons were particularh ' adapted to carr ' out the object of the club because they were leaders with a certain following. The club was limited to forty members who, if absent three consecutive times, were expelled. Those apphina; for membership were to name a list of their activities, and if the inajority voted in favor, the person became a member of the club. In the middle of the term the following were initiated; Mamie Lesh, John Satterthwaite, Virgilius Ufheil, and Marvin Coble. Homecoming Day was the gala event sponsored by the club. Besides the tickets, the members had charge of the selling of the souvenir megaphones. Com- mittees were chosen b) ' the president to take charge of the decorating in the down- town district and the football field. The members freeh ' participated in the Homecoming fete and the pep sessions held throughout the year. The yell leaders worked in harmon) - with the club in every event.

McMullan 5iins The most outstanding thing in the histon- of the Huntington Sunshine Society during the year was the winning of the trophy at the State Conyention in Shelby- ville in recognition as the best all-around chapter in the state. The Scrap-book of the local society which was displayed at this annual meeting, April 27 and 28, was given first ratine: in the judging. These two honors were well merited awards that the girls gained by consistent work during the year. About twenty-five girls attended the State Convention from Huntington. Ger- aldine Royer was chosen voting delegate, and Joy Reiff representative delegate. Alice Ditzler presided as State President. Instead of having a variety of toys for distribution at Christmas time, the manual training department undertook the responsibility of making doll beds for little girls and toy carts for little boys, while the Sunshine girls brought dolls which were dressed by the Home Economics department. These presents numbered about one hundred, and were much appreciated by those who received them through the distribution at the hospital and through the Charity Guild. An activity that aroused much enthusiasm was the staging of the Penny Supper. Untiring efforts on the part of the girls in co-operation with the teachers made it full realization oi ambition. The sweetest memory was the Mothers Tea which was held in March. Mrs. Sandefur, the State Dean, gave an interesting talk to the mothers and daughters. Perhaps one of the most beneficial acts of the Society was the bringing of Mrs. Helen B. Paulsen, The Mother Goose Lady, for a series of talks in the fall. These proved helpful for all. P.i je LIX i!

Through these years it has become a permanent fixture of the moral and social life of the school. The slogan practiced by the boA ' S is the Four C ' s : Clean sports, clean speech, clean scholarship, and clean habits. A new form of membership was suggested this year and worked out very successfully. This provision allowed all boys who desired to join to send in their applications and the entrance voted in on by all the members. The membership is now limited to forty thus keeping the club from becoming too large or unwieldy. Meetings were held e ery Thursday evening during which a business session and a program afterwards. During the meetings in the year business men as well as out-of-town speakers gave addresses which interested the boys very much. A Father and Son banquet was held during the first semester while in the second term a Mother . ' ind Son banquet was given. In the first part of May a best girl banquet was held. The club spent much of its time in preparation for the Older Boys ' Confer- ence which it sponsored. Group discussions proved very beneficial to the boys. Invitations for the Older Boys ' Conference held in Huntington Friday, .10, were sent out to sixt) ' -one towns and cities in Indiana. Marion sent nine delegates, the largest delegation sent. The finance for the convention was arranged by Joe Sowerwine with the coop- eration of the merchants. Among the principal speakers was Mr. B. A.

The initials of Senatus Populusqiie Romanus was adopted for the name of the club. It was organized verv much like the government of Rome lonir ago, hav- ing the same officers as that city. The duties of the officers are: Pontife.x Maximus, who had charge of all special ceremonies; the Aediles, who conducted social pro- grams; the Proctors, who published the Rostra; and the Consuls, who handled executive affairs. The members of the Cicero class acted as senate. Li order to become a mem- ber of the club a person had to have two years of the language and admitted by the consent of the senate. Following admission, initiation services were held. The new members were brought before the senate in chains as Haeduan and Hehetian slaves. Each one was compelled to pass under the yoke and then to answer questions which were asked in Latin. The Pontifex Maximus made the final decision in each case and gave it to the slaves. After the command was obeyed the students became members of the S. P. Q. R. club. This was the first attempt to organize a Latin Club in High Scho;)l and the sponsor of it deserves yer much credit for the work she has done. Definite plans have been made whereby this club will be continued next ear. As time i oes on it will continue to grow and be a benefit to students interested in the Latin language.

The purpose of the club was to enthuse the students more in banking. It was not their effort to get 100 per cent in banking but to induce them to save. During the last few years the pupils found difficulty in paying their activities all at once. In the beginning of the term the activity card was suggested by Mr. Cross and which worked out very effectiveh ' . This was a very good plan for the student body because it was much easier to take care of these expenses since it was done in small amounts. Another advantage was the doing away of the neces- sity of special campaigns for subscriptions and tickets during the year. By deposit- ing twenty cents everv Tuesday the card was paid at the end of the last semester. In order to help the cashiers of the various rooms Mr. Cross appointed the following officers: Oscar Kline, vice-president in charge of collections with Ruth Adams, Velma Parker, and Bernard Bir, as assistants; Reece Hoffman, vice-president in charge of advertising. It is the duty of the officers to get all the money in at the appointed time. The work of the department cannot be over-estimated because of the amount of time which must be i iven to it.

Beaver TO THE great desire of the faculty the monitors have made a successful year of 1928. The duty of the monitors is to keep the students moving in the halls in order to avoid crowding at the lockers and to keep the halls in a presentable shape at all times. Under their watchful eyes there is no runnintr or boisterous talking in the corridors. One new feature was demonstrated this year and worked out quite successfully. Instead of a hall-policeman the Student Council appointed a teacher as chairman to take charge of each corridor. In order that there would not be a vacancy two selected students were chosen by the teacher to aid in the placing of monitors. All the teachers united in reporting hall misdemeanors and bad conduct. With each vear of the monitor system the corridor deportment of the students grows better. As a result of this there was less frequency in changing locker owners to a different floor. Since the dut} ' of monitor is tiresome the teachers agree to make mention of it on the pupil ' s character card because a student is to be commended on this responsibility. The monitors have been a great aid in the school curriculum. Through them a fine sense of school spirit and patriotism has been created which makes it an estab- lished duty for next year. The monitor system owes its success to the various faculty members who de- voted their time untirin rlv for the betterment of school conduct. Pafre LXIII IT B. F. KiWANis Builds Forever FOR the first time in the histor - of school activities an outside organization has given students an opportunity to achieve some distinction for their schoLastic standards gained in their four years of high school standing. This emblem is to be a )earh ' award, by the Kiwanis Club of Huntington. The number of students eligible for honors is limited to six per cent of the graduation class who have attained the highest standards during their hia:h school career. Each gears ' members will automatically fall into the K. B. F. Society, which means Kiwanis Builds Forever. The society is on the same basis as the Honor Society and the Quill antl Scroll Societ) ' in Journalism. To the high school it has the same significance as the Phi Beta Kappa fraternity to the college. The one distinction this highly symbolized emblem has is that eligibility is open to everyone, and that Freshmen as well as Seniors can be honored with its ownership. However, the Freshmen have more hopeful chance as they have four years ahead of them, while the Senior is now graded on a non-preparatory period. This is a wonderful incentive for high scholastics in the future to all pupils of the school. There are no restrictions as to other school activities for the standing is based only on scholastic work. The badge of membership is of gold designed as a watch charm and bearing significant markings. The general design is that of a shield which is mounted on top by a lamp of knowledge. Two bars approach from either side of the shield bearing the Latin phrase, Discite Semper, which means study alwa s. In the left hand corner is a star representing five points in noble character: truth, charity, purity, courage, and self-control. In the right hand corner is a shield with thirteen stars and thirteen stripes representing patriotism. Between the Latin phrase and at the bottom of the shield is the Kiwanis Liternational emblem, and under the Kiwanis emblem is a ribbon bearing the significant phrase, Sponsors of Education. These emblems are uniform except the one given to the graduate having the highest average will have a diamond in the star, and the graduate having the second highest will have a ruby in the star. All of the grades are counted from the freshman •ear to the year of gradua- tion. No notice is given to the forunate persons until the night of Commencement although there is a surmise concernina; the winners. Page LXIV Wienke Wasnnitli Wlieeler Graystn o Peace Contest N November 10, eight students participated in the Peace Declamation Con- test, which was held in the auditorium before the student body. This is the first year that Huntington High School has entered this contest. In this Tom Wasmuth won first place, receiving a bronze medal from the state organization backing the work, and a two dollar bill from the local Stanley W. C. T. U. Frederic Grayston took second place, winning a one dollar bill as a reward. Other contestants who participated were Miriam Dumbauld, Jane Wheeler, Dorothea Barnes, Martha Scudder, Dorothy Mauger, and Lucile Wienke. Entitled to enter the County Contest, Tom took first place over representatives from Huntington Township, Lafontaine, Swayzee, Clear Creek, and SS. Peter and Paul ' s. Here he won a silver medal. Entering the District Contest, he again took high honors when he took first place, winning the gold medal. On February 10, he represented Huntington High School, Huntington County, and this District when he entered the State Contest at Indianapolis. Although he was the only Freshman present, he was ranked among the first five. The success of Huntington High ' s undertaking in the Peace Contest was due in a large part to Miss Rupert who coached all the participants in the local division. She also aided Tom Wasmuth when he entered the County, District, and State meets. However, this is not the only oratorical work she has assisted in since she has coached the Constitution Contest and helped in the Senior Play as well. Paffe LXVI Kuver Xeuiiian Luelhin Beverly Irey Dumbaiild Hort ' inaii Wheeler Wienke Constitution Contest U NDER the sponsorship of the Huntington Count - Bar Association, a Con- stitution Contest was again held this ear. Prizes of money were given the winners. The contest was divided into an oratorical and an essay division. Only one was chosen to represent the school in the oratorical work while six essays were chosen and judged with those from other schools in the county. Those who entered in the oratorical division were: Nadine Hoffman, Lucile Wienke, |ane Wheeler, and Miriam Dumbaiild. Lillian Raver, Myrtle Louise Earhart, Rubv Ir ' , Pauline Beverly, Thea Neuman, Betty King, and Mary Gardner were entered in the essay division. To inspire the contestants prizes were offered by the Parent-Teachers Association. The first winner received fi ' e dollars, second three dollars, and third two dollars. On March 1 7 the oratorical elimination contest took place before the student bodv. Lucile Wienke won the honor of representing Huntington High in the count ' , while Bettv King placed first in the essay division. In the county meet our oratorical representative was placed second, being de- feated bv Richard Bixbv, of Andrews, who later placed second in the state. Each essay and oration had to be original and all based on the same subject, the Constitution. History and English teachers assisted the pupils in choosing the ma- terial. Miss Rupert supervised the local contest. Page LXVII m Craft, Scudder, Kramifii. I ' tiL-r. Feitun Feting, Lcsli, Kinp; H AVING lost the successful team of last year by graduation, the debating season of 1927 was begun with an entireh ' new team composed of all girls. According to the schedule of the Northeastern Indiana Debating League, our representatives engaged in four debates. Lad ' luck was on the side of the negative team when they competed with South Side of Fort Wa ne and won. Their second encounter was with Columbia City which resulted in a tie. The affirmative four received a blow of disappointment when they lost by a very small margin to Andrews, this year ' s champions of the league. The subject used for debate this season in the debating league, of which Huntington is a member, was Resolved: That the western powers in their relations with the Chinese in China shoidd be bound by the same rights and duties as in their relations with each other. Because the critic judge was so popular last ear with the debating teams, it was used with success this } ' ear. A. W. Cordier, of Manchester College, was judge of the Andrews and Colimibia City teams with our debaters. Miss Orel Little judged our encounter with South Side of Fort Wayne, while Professor Fred Conkling distinguished the winner of Central of Fort Wayne and Huntington. The members of the negative team were: Gertrude Peting, Mamie Lesh, Jeanne Felton, and AnnaBelle Utter, alternate. The personnel of the affirmative team was: Dorothy Craft, Betty King, Martha Scudder, and Evelyn Kramien, alternate. Mr. Day was the coach for the Red and Black representatives. With the exception of two Jimiors, the rest will be graduated with the Class of 1928. Page LXVIII fl Lesli, Seber. Brinvn. Ciiok. Kaver Beaver, Coble, Reiff, Hawes THIS ' ear is the fourth year that the Latin students partook in the State Latui Contest. Miss Beatrice Brown, instructor in the language, had the position as County Chairman although this is the first ear as the faculty member of this school. Awards for the district and state contest are sold, silver, and bronze medals. The month of local elimination was held during the first of February at which time the students competed to win the right to represent Huntington High School. Those who won in this were: Helen Jane Cook, Lillian Raver, Shirley Hawes, Helen Weber, Geraldine Coble, Olive Lesh, Joy Reiff, and Hilda Beaver. The winners of the count ' contest were Joy Reiff and Hilda Beaver placin r first and second in Cicero division; Geraldine Coble first in the Caesar division; and Helen Weber and Shirley Hawes placing first and second in the 1-A di ision. With the winners of the other divisions this group journeyed to Wabash for the district contest. At this time .Miss Brown led the discussion group on The Contract .Method which she intriiduced in Huntington High School, In order that there would be no deception of the partaking students the test papers were given to the other critics for grading. The Latin contestants were presented with letters as a recognition of their work. The purpose of the contest is to create a desire to do better work in Latin and make Latin work over the state more uniform. This year the department in this work attained the highest record ever made. Shirley Hawes placed second in the 1-A division of the District Contest, . s a reward she received a medal. Ger- aldine Coble and Joy Reiff placed fourth in their respective groups. Pase LXIX Back row; Milt ' s. I ' lUr. itiiiyston. Hnlliiiaii. (irittlth. KiiiK. O ' dier.

Bailey Senior Class Play THIS year the Senior Class chose The Thirteenth Chair, a mystery play, for the annual Senior production. The plav was presented successfully three times: on the afternoon Tuesda ■, February 7, for the grade school children, and on the nights of Wednesda - and Thursday, February 8 and 9 respectively. Although the scenes were the same throughout the play, all who witnessed the play declared it to be the most thrilling and weird production ever given by the students of Huntington High School. This t pe of play was extremely hard to produce because of the man - details, which, if improperly acted, would have resulted in absolute failure. Except for three visits made by Mr. J. A. Beriault of the Indianapnlis School of Expression, the pla - was coached entireh ' b - Miss Taylor and Aliss Rupert, who were aided by the Advisory Board. This committee consisted of Margaret Scudder, chairman; Lena Johnson, Marjorie Bayless, Robert Eurgwald, and Lyman Kitt. The weird stage lighting was effected hv Mr. Michael. For the first time in the staging of the plays, programs were put out in book form. The advertisements, the cast, the synopsis of the pla -, and the committees were found among its pages. Advertisements were gathered by Dorothy Craft. Because the troph}- was awarded two years in succession it was decided to give a prize to t he senior selling the most tickets. This worked up enthusiasm and interest in the entire class. Glenna Griffith was the winner of the first prize, five dollars. On April 13, a dinner was given at the Elks ' Club at 6:00 o ' clock in honor of the cast, after which they went to Lagro to see themselves as others saw them. The Thirteenth Chair was chosen as the Lagro annual Senior production also.

O ' dier, Yotnig. Lesli, Lind, (Jriltith Kase, Fansler, King, Harney ON the morning of December 23, the Religious Committee of the Sunshine Society sponsored the playlet, Why the Chimes Rang. The play was coached by Miss Thrailkill and Miss Cage. The beautiful lighting and scen- ery was effected bv Mr. Michael. The play centered in three acts. The first was a forest scene where an elderly peasant was eagerly seeking his way to the great cathedral to hear the great chimes. They would ring if a perfect gift were laid upon the altar. The children learn his story and all proceed on their way to the church. The second act is set in a humble cottage where the little brothers plan their longed-for trip to the great church to hear the bells on Christmas eve. They possess no gift except a beautiful lily, grown by their own hands. As they are ready to leave a stranger comes in the hut. The older lad offered to stay with the stranger and sent his brother on. There, after the nobles offer their rich presents, the little boy places his offering on the altar. The Chimes peal forth in the still air after a lapse of many years. The parts chosen were enacted with a wonderful spirit, the entire cast display- ing true ability. This play, the major contribution of the club to the program of the school year, was an artistic work in all details of lighting, color, and stage techni- calities. The society may well be proud of this playlet, so indicative of the Sun- shine spirit. The message of the play was in keeping with the Christmas season, and was acknowledged by all to be impressive in its presentation. Though the society has given such programs only the last three years, it has established a reputation for originality. Page LXXV w ITH the start that had been made in band work during the school year of 1926-1927, an advanced class was organized in the fall of 1927. Under the supervision of Delmar Weesner, this group developed into a creditable organization during the ) ' ear. This advanceil class formed the major part of the band that was entered in the District Band Contest at Marion, April 28. Because the work had been in the school less than two years, Huntington was entered in Class B. There were five other schools competing in this division. A concert was presented by the beginning and advanced band classes in con- junction with the Marion High School Band on Friday, April 20. The program demonstrated in a complimentary fashion the progress made during the short time the department has been in the school. The Parent-Teacher Association has undertaken the task of purchasing uni- forms for the band, and it will probably be so equipped next year. The personnel of the advanced class was as follows: Piccolos: Fred Hosier, Fred Derr; Flute; Paul Cozad; Clarinets: Joe Foote, Richard Reetz, Ruby Iry, Corlene Shock, John Berringer, Wanda Hubartt, Ruth McDevitt, Donald Snider, Jack Bischoif, Dean Martin, Helen Cook, Hugh Hartman, Maurice Newell; Saxo- phones: William Calvert, James Favorite, Toby Tyler, Martin Torborg, Charles LaBarr; Cornets: Phyllis Sale, Waldo Hubartt, Harold Berringer, Helen Schell, Donald Fouse, Maxine Ade, Jean Smith; Horns: Lowell Buzzard, Heiney Wagner, Elizabeth Snyder, Louis Nie; Trombones: Erlean Roudebush, Marjorie Rhoden- baugh, Melvin Swain; Baritones: Charles Lay, Clifford Miller; Basses: Milford Toopes, William Scheerer, Gains Wike, Max Smith, Kenneth Blackburn; Percus- sion: Marion Van Pelt, Homer Bailey, Roger Ware. PaM LXXVI jinniiig DEVELOPMENT of maten ' nl through the beginning hand chisses under Dclinar Weesner assures Huntington High School a permanent band depart- ment that will soon result in a musical organization of unusually high order. Instruments are supplied for use of the students by the school, though pupils usuall} ' bu - their own instnunents after learning to play, exxept in the case of the rarer and larger ones. Several classes of novices were organized dining the year, and the membership is large enough to make possible progressive promotion into the advanced 2;roup. Many of the pupils taking the instruction were in the Junior High Schools, and several from the grades. The years that they will have in school will assure the development of capable players. The beginning classes presented a part of the program that was n ' wCn on Friday, April 20, with the assistance of the Marion High School Band. Practically all those playing had never studied a band instrument before the beginnins of this school year. The evidence of the progress made during one year was trratifvini;. The members of the beginning classes who appeared on the program were as follows: Piccolos: Keith Shock, George Cussen, Helen Jackson; Clarinets: Helen Cook, Hugh Hartman, Helen Brewer, Lucile Obenour, Fred Whitted, Jack Bis- choff, Helen Harvey, Ruth Wike, Beatrice Shaddle, Willis Hosier, Edith Stephens, Russell Hubartt, Robert ' oung, Audrey Wilson; Saxophones: Kenneth Roudebush, Toby Tyler; Cornets: Donald F ' ouse, Dea Michael, Ray Lauer, Tom Wasmuth, Jane Foote, Donald Freehafer, Delbert Hoon, Muriel Mahoney, Pearl MacFarlane, Donald Anderson; Horns: Elizabeth Snyder, Louis Nie; Trombones: Melvin Swain, Melvin Livengood, Ralph Buckner; Baritones: Harold Smith, Harold Casper; Basses: Carl Smith, Kenneth Blackburn, Max Smith; Drums: Donald Aker, Nola Yarger, Harold Landfert. Pa je LXXVII i BECAUSE of the development of wind instrument players in the Band depart- ment, the High School Orchestra had a better instrumentation than it has had in several years. Though still lacking the rarer string instruments, it was fairly complete in the other sections. Thirty-five players were selected by Mr. Day in try-outs at the beginning of the second semester to work tor the special services the orchestra gives each year in the school activities. The first of these was the furnishing of music for the senior play. For the first time in three years, a concert was given, this time in conjunction with the Girls Glee Club. A representative audience received the program which was presented Friday, April 13. In addition to this work, the orchestra furnished the music as in other years for the Commencement exercises. A group of sixteen was picked from the full orchestra for special work such as playing at banquets. This group played before the Kiwanis Club, for the Sun- shine penny supper, at a Parent-Teachers meeting, and for several Y. M. C. A. banquets. The membership of the orchestra was as follows: Violins: Helen Maranda, Harold Bailey, Clifford White, Milford Toopes, John Spahr, Lois Swihart, Fred Dick, Audrey Hochstetler, Betty Young, Marguerite Buzzard, Wilda Mae Lucas, Esther Repp, Lois Forster, and Dorothy Kenner; Cello: Margaret Tavinier; Flute: Paul Cozad; Clarinets: Ruby Iry, Donald Snider, Wanda Hubartt, and Jack Bischoff; Saxophones: William Calvert and James Favorite; Cornets: Waldo Hubartt, Helen Schell, and Phyllis Sale; Horns: Lowell Buzzard and Heiney Wagner; Trombones: Eriean Roudebush and Marjorie Rodenbaugh; Tubas: Gaius Wike and William Scheerer; Drums: Kenneth James and Homer Bailey; Piano: Gwendolyn Mahoney.

The first meeting was held Friday, November 1 1, 1927, in the Club Rooms at which time an election of officers was held and committees were formed. The club was limited to fort ' members and was made up into quartets. These various quartets appeared on many occasions during the year, singing at the Kiwanis, Rotarv ' , and Exchange Clubs, the Business Professional Women ' s Banquet, the Sun- shine Mothers ' Tea, Sunshine Christmas Program, Carol singing, and at the Glee Club Concert. Those making up the first soprano were: Ruth Adams, Martha Beaver, Ruth Beaver, Myrtle Louise Earhart, Velma Parker, Maxine Chalfant, Lillian Ra ' er, Hazel Claire Robertson, Mona Mae Christy, Margaret Rinebolt and Miriam Smith. The Second Sopranos consisted of Georganna Lowman, Laura Kenner, Helen Biehl, Dorothy IVL Smith, Lae Shideler, Emily Young, Olive Lesh, Ossa Hamilton, Edna Hendry, IVIiriam Dumbauld, and Mamie Lesh. The First Altos were: Arzetta Brickley, Ruth Robbins, Margaret Scudder, Geraldine Zahn, Elizabeth Lengel, and Delene Lobdell. The Second Altos were: Jane Wheeler, Audrey Hochstetier, Wanda Hubartt, Agnes Adams, Alberta Sands, Dorothy Septer, Leetia Stewart, Wilda Mae Lucas, and Lois Forster. The accompanist on all occasions was Gwendo hii Mahoney.

Development rather than achievement was the main aim of Mrs. Bran an in the work. Much of the special work, such as singing for programs, was undertaken h - the Glee Club. The plan introduced last year was again used in the class work. Each girl prepared a song of her own selection which was sung before the chorus classes. This did not have to be a solo, but could be a duet, trio, quartet, or even a larger group. This method gave the pupils a chance to hear one another, and since the class graded each one as she presented her selection, it proved good training. During the last part of the second semester work was begun on the music for the Baccalaureate Service. Some of the selections were chosen because of requests, and others because of their relation to the Commencement season. Four numbers were given by the chorus on the evening of May 20 during the Baccalaureate exercises. One selection was given by the girls, one b) ' the bo)s, and two b) ' the mixed voices. The numbers were as follows: The House by the Side of the Road, Gulesian; My Creed, Garnet; The Recessional, DeKoven; and Fulness of Earth, Moore.

Much of the work taken up in class was of three part arrange- inent, though some pieces included the four parts. Seventv girls were chosen for the chorus which sang at the Baccalaureate service. The enrollment of all the classes was too large to be used, so a chorus totalling one hundred was picked from the hoys and girls chorus. The enrollment in the girls ' classes was as follows: First soprano: R. Adams, Bailey, Bonebi ' ake, Brewer, Brown, Buzzard, Casper, Christy, Coolman, Davis, Dolb ' , Ewing, Farrar, Feightner, Gardener, Haneline, Harger, Harvey, Hawkins, Henry, Hoag, Hurd, James, Kenner, Knight, Laurie, Lippincott, Lyman, Meekin, Mossman, Pohler, Rankin, Redding, Redrup, Rinebolt, Robertson, Ruble, Shipley, Sparks, Steiber, Swihart, Tallman, Taylor, Telfer, Vale, Walburn, Weaver, Wienke, Williams, and ' oung.

Lee, Bonani, Streeter IT has always been the case that more girls are enrolled in chorus than boys. This is partly due tti the new band classes and because of the demand upon the bcn ' s for athletics. Every means was taken by Mrs. Branyan to interest the bo} ' s in singling and she succeeded very well. Fifty bo)s enrolled in the work. During the first semester the classes were organized for the fifth and sith periods During the second semester the classes were organized for the fifth and sixth periods in order to make the group larger for practice. Several of the boys took part in the chorus that aided in the success of the Sun- shine Christmas playlet, Why the Chimes Rang. Baccalaureate music was stressed during the second semester work. Thirty hn s were selected for this special chorus which included seventy girls. Since the Girls Glee Club was such a success as a new organization in the school, it was planned to start a similar club for the boys; but this was not acted upon because there was no time suitable for practice. The members of the chorus were divided into the following groups: First tenor: Bonam, Hochstetler, Kitt, Lee, Meese, Orr, Piepenbrink, Royer, Shoemaker, Solloway, Streater, Swaim, E. Williams, and Van Zant. Second tenor: Ahlschwede, H. Blackburn, Cussen, Hiatt, Mclntire, Miller, McClure, Patten, Reifert, Shutt, Shock, and Whitted. First bass: Branyan, Beaver, Cussen, Enyeart, Lauer, LaVine, H. Mclntire, Nie, Petrucelle, Potts, and Sale. Second bass: Bauman, Chesterman, Grass, Hubley, Jung, Mickley, Myers, Nichols, Pohler, Sowerwine, and Steele. Paffe LXXXII sSffl- I 1 IN completing his second year as the athletic coach of his home town high school, Paul has earned for himself the title of the most popular coach Huntington has ever had. He received this unsought honor largely because he was always an upright leader who stressed clean sportsman- ship to his teams and to the fans. From only five regulars for his first year ' s team to a winning combination and a wealth of reserve material in his team of the second year is quite a feat for any man; but the Viking coach did it, as the fine football team that was turned out this year testifies. As a basketball player and coach, Kriegie was a hum- (h ' nger. He was a star player on the basketball team of ' 18, the only H. H. S. team that ever went to the semi-finals in a state tournament. On his graduation he turned to Purdue where he became an all-conference center all due with honors. And so Kriegie went through several training schools and finally back to his old high school to regain for it the prestige it had when he left. ALTHOUGH this was his first year as coach of the Reserves, Gi rdon Cook brought his team through an extra hard season with a record of eleven games won and nine lost. As players were constantly being shifted from the second squad to the first and vice versa, it was doubh ' hard for Gordon to maintain a smooth running machine. Despite this handicap, the Sc -ldings in practice were con- stantly forcing the Vikings to fight hard to keep possession of the ship, while other teams seldom had a chance against their fierce onslaught. Not only as a basketball coach but also as a football and tennis mentor did Gordoii make his unceasing efforts stand out. For football Cook built up a reserve team of Freshmen and Sophomores for next year ' s team, while in tennis he worked his men hard and as a result the tennis sharks sained state wide fame for all concerned. Paffe LXXXIV jer WORKING hand in hand with our coaches this ear was Omer Shideler, the Student Manager. Doc soon had a reputation for trustworthiness and not once during the year did he fail in his duty. This is an espe- ciallv fine record since the position requires among other things that he attend ever ' practice; he there quite earh ' to doctor the players, and the hardest task of all — to keep the team in good humor so that the morale will not suffer an unfortunate relapse. Omer has had a rather hectic high school sports career. During the 25-26 baskethall season he was Student Manager and gained aluable experience along that line. Then last year he promised to be one of our outstanding stars in football, but due to an unfortunate injury he was compelled to quit school and tiuis lost his chance to play basketball and baseball as well as football. This year he came back to school and was immediately appointed to his position as Student Manager. Marjorie Bayless, Yell Leader a T HE Viking yell! The Viking yell! a stentorian yoice issues the call from a hu e red megaphone. The fans bark their reph ' as they giye the short and snappy yell in unison with Marjorie ' s swift and easy movements. Marjorie was elected yell leader by the Student Council. Now a yell leader must overcome many ob- stacles, but this fact did not deter Marjorie, so she sailed right into her job and soon all was going smoothly. The yelling section was not organized this year, but the Booster Club was bribed, bullied, and talked into yellin their darndest for the best school of all the nation. As Marjorie is a member of the Class of ' 28, she will not be among those present next year, and it is sure that her friendly smile and hearty laugh will be missed by all. Pag; LXXXV lAi CoBLe W U ' AJiS p i nOL ■jfiAfCR I Psr ?iE H. H. S. 7— WABASH 6 September 1 7 — Here The first time in 21 years, but it was worth waiting for to see the Vikings beat the Wabash Hillclimbers, even by one point. Our touchdown came in the second quarter when Captain Coble recovered a fumble and ran 64 yards for a touchdown. Petrie booted the ball perfectly for the extra and win- ning point. Wabash took the ball down the field for a touchdciwn in the second half, but failed to make the extra counter. Soon after this Coble, Ufheil, and Ar- nold were forced from the game by injuries, but the determined Norse fought on. In the last quarter Wabash took the ball over the line again; but a linesman was off-side, and it did not count. The Vikings held the Hill- climbers for downs, and retained the ball for the last few minutes until the game ended. H. H. S. n— LOGANSPORT September 23 — Here Although the Red Devils held the ad ' antage in weight, the Vikings held their more stocky opponents on little better than even terms throughout the greater part of the game. Huntington carried the ball down the field several times to threaten the enemy ' s goal but could not put the ball across the line. Fumbles were frequent throughout the game, but only one threatened to do any damage: the Loganberry fullback fumbled and Welch recovered the ball on the Logansport 5-yard line. Our golden chance came to naught, how- ever, because the Red Devils ' line held firm; so the ball was soon in play back in the center of the field. Coble, Blackburn, Ade, Williams, and Petrie starred as this hectic battle went down m liistory. Page LXX.tVI II H. H. S. 26— BLUFFTON 6 September 30 — There Easily solving the enemy ' s pinvs, the Norsemen swept on in their race for championship honors bv defeating the Bhiffton Timers 26 to 6 on their home field. Though the Tigers put up a stiff battle, thev could not stop the Vikings, once thev started with their ground gaining aerial attacks, line plunges, and end runs. Only once were thev halted in their march downfield, when BlufF- ton ' s little left end intercepted a pass and ran 40 vards without interference for their onlv touchdown. In the second half Coach Krie baum sent in his substitutes, and thev held the opposing team on even terms for the rest of the game. The team was func- tioning perfecth ' , and no one was out- standing in the play. H. H. S. 0— KEND.ALLVILLE 18 October 8 — There Kendallville surelv had a fine time at our e.xpense while we were their guests. The Vikings did their best, and the ' held a decided advantage until a Kendallville substitute halfback ran 82 yards through the Norse defense for a touchdown. After this it was all Ken- dallville. Every man on the team fought hard but the plays just naturally wouldn ' t come off right, and the resulting ragged play disheartened the team miserably. Despite the fact that the Vikings had an off day and that Kendallville was better, they onh ' succeeded in makinir three touchdowns, and the Viking sub- stitutes pla ed nearh ' all the first half, so H. H. S. didn ' t do so badly after all. The next game with Kendallville was a great disappointment to the fans because the game was figured as an easy win. This conference contest also con- siderably lowered our standing in the league. RffOLa Pase LWXVII : rr OUN i iA VIS ' E r.SlACK BafiN CHCyAUER H. H. S. 0— KOKOMO 25 October 1 5 — There Kokomo ' s football team lived up to its reputation altogether too well to suit the crowd of H. H. S. fans who iourne ed to Kokomo to see the contest. However, the Vikings had the Koko Kats worried in the first half since the Norse line frequently broke through the Wildcat defense and tackled the ball carrier before their herculean efforts in the first half. They were soon after further handicapped by the loss of Hechstein, star end, from injuries. After this the Wildcats proceeded to go down the field in short order for two touchdowns with their famous split second backfield working like sixty. The substitutes were run in bv Kriegbaum, and though they fought hard, Kokomo ran their score up to 25 before the fra me ended. H. H. S. 0— PERU October 1 9 — Here The Vikings almost beat Old Man Jinx in this game bv several times com- ing within a few yards of crossing Peru ' s line. The Jinx in late years had permitted a weak Peru eleven to lick a strong Huntington eleven by a large score, so with this ' ear ' s result we should lick Peru right royally next year. Jillv Ufheif was ' shifted from quarterback to the fullback position and he played the best game of his career. In fact his wide end runs were the only thing that redeemed this game for the Viking followers. Five times the Sea Rovers had the ball within scoring distance; but twice a pass over the goal line was incom- plete, once a place kick by Petrie missed the goal by a few inches, and then twice the Tigers held the Norse for downs for the fifth failure. This ended the Vikings mid-season slump, and that ' s that with Old Man Jinx ' s compliments. Page LXXXVIII i H. H. S. 6— WARSAW 6 October 29 — There Receiving a 2fl-vard pass from Ufheil, Williams sprinted 40 yards to the Warsaw 4- ard line to cause the hopes of Huntington fans to soar sky- high. The ball was taken to the 1-yard line on a terrific line buck, and then a Viking back dived over the line for the touchdown. Warsaw made their touchdown in the first quarter when thev recovered a fumble, but the ' failed to make the e.xtra point. In the third quarter the ball was carried to the Warsaw 15-yard line, but a pass slipped through a Vikine end ' s hands just as the quarter ended. This misplav caused the hopes of the V iking rooters to go do wn to zero, but in the fourth quarter, like magic, the Norse ' s never-sav-die spirit turned the tide, and a touchdown was scored. Amid intense excitement, Petrie missed the kick, and another tie, onh ' not a scoreless tie as in the last three years, was written down for the fifth game between the two Red and Black teams. H. H. S. 6— COLU.MBIA CITY N() ' ember 4 — Here To celebrate our Homecoming, the Vikings played the best all-around game ever seen on Gunther Field, and de- feated the hitherto undefeated and in- vincible Columbia Citv team 6 to 0. Though halted on the 5- ard line in the first half, the team came back strong for the rest of the game. Petrie in- tercepted a pass, Arnold gained on a trick line plav, a smash through center by Williams, and a crushing line plunge by Ade, 20(1 pound tackle, placed the ball over the line fo r the winning touchdown. tAWRITC: n Ho iefi SAUMan n ' cuiRc Page LXXXIX f1£ASTCA W S )MIS W i- ARNOLD 5 iOCK The With five regulars and three experi- enced substitutes left from last year, Coach Kriegbaum started to weld a team that would uphold the fame of H. H. S. in football circles. A week at Camp Crosby under the tutelage of Knute Rockne and other famous college coaches gave the squad that valuable experience that was necessary for the team to go through their successful schedule. The veterans were Marvin Coble who was reelected captain, Fat Blackburn, Deed ' oung, Jilly Ufheil, Joe Heaston, Matt Williams, Bob Petrie, and Russ Ade. Omer Shideler returned to school this year and, since he was ineligible to participate in ath- letics, was appointed Student Manager. This year our arch-rival, Wabash, didn ' t have the advantage of more prac- tice than the Vikings, and as a result by brilliant defensive work, we cap- tured their ship by a one point margin. The Norse, being a bit over-confident, permitted Logansport to hold them to a to tie in the next game. Heins; weakened by the loss of several regu- lars, Bluffton was defeated there by a 26 to 6 score. The Alumni walked the plank to the tune of a 6 to score. The old stars pla ed real football, but they couldn ' t quite hold the battering Norse. Huntington had an off dav on the foreign field, and Kendallville bene- fited to the tune of 18 to 0. The score of Kokomo 25 and Huntington (J tells little of the fierce playing of the Vik- ings, for it was a hard fought contest. A weak team barely holding a strong team — this is the story of the scoreless Peru game. The Warsaw 6 to 6 tie was a great game with brilliant playing featured by both teams. This year ' s homecoming game with Columbia City was one of the best games ever seen on Gimther field. The score of 6 to shows the correct ranking of the two teams. Paffe XC m h. ' ■ i-fe- U- ' i P£TfllE V W C0BL€ TA y£ART WELCH With only one week of practice after the end of the football season, the fighting Vikings tackled their foremost enemy, Clear Creek, and almost crocked them; hut with two regulars out on personals, a barrage of baskets in the last half by their forward sank the ship. Coming back strong, the Norse captured the Warren galley in an easy contest. Expecting an easy game, Muncie found a Tartar and barely got a 10 point margin of victory. Keepinir up the fast Muncie game pace the Norse five took on Rochester, their rivals of old, and played a game unique in sev- eral respects — nearly all field goals were made from the center of the floor, and only a few personals were called. They won by making three long shots from center in the last three minutes. Here the Sea Rovers hit a bad streak, and, on successive nights lost two nightmare games to the Peru Tigers and the Central of Fort Wayne Tigers b - big scores. After the above dis- asters the Norse staged a brilliant come- back to championship form and won three straight games during the holiday season. Monticel lo was conquered in a fast game because of an air-tight de- fense that frustrated the touted offense of the downstaters. The Black and Gold of Warsaw was the next sacrifice to the Lime City lads. A foreign in- vader was the next victim. Pittsburgh Tech of Pennsylvania had a fine no defeat record and eastern e.xperts were picking them to cop the National Cham- pionship, but they wanted to see the noted Indiana brand of basketball. To make a sweet story short, the Vikings played in real Hoosier style and smoth- ered them 35 to 13. Page XCII m: The Elwood Tinplatcrs caught the Sea Rovers on an off day anil ahriiptly stopped their winning streak. In the game with Spiceland, the boys set a re- markable record h making 47 per cent of their shots, v -hich is a high mark for H. H. S. teams. Then the. Vikings hit a mid-season slump, and the rest of the season was in off and on style. The first off was the loss of a freak ;ame with Decatur. The referee and um- pire played a piccolo duet on then- whistles with the result that Huntintj- ton ended the game with three men playing. The first five were withheld from the Andrews fracas until two and one-half minutes of plav remained; then they were rushed in, but could not overcome the Red Devils ' lead. With the regulars hitting the baskets from all sides, the Norse swamped the North Manchester Trojans in a furious game. Inability to hit the hoop and to follow in shots spelled defeat for the inx ' adinff Norse by the mighty Tipton cagers. Again the saving of regulars meant an- other setback to the H. H. S. basketeers. ' abash felt that revenge was sweet. Columbia City was the next to ifain revenge for a football defeat; but the lack of time saved them, for the Norse were coming fast. Marion won its second victory at our expense in a slow game. Jefferson of Lafavette barely escaped with a two point victory in a heartbreaking game, while Bluff ' ton tried to do likewise, but came out at the wrong end of the score. Vikings are Fighters! SAffNHlsaL Page XCIII ARhiOLD cusseN UH rnocK ZOOK )C About the first of Januar - a contest was held bv the School World to select an appropriate name for the Seconds. The winning suggestion — the Scyldings — was submitted by Hilda Beaver, a junior, and so we now have the Vikings and Scyldings, both teams being known for their fighting spirit. The Scyldings ver - early showed form that prophesied a classy outfit to humhle the ego of A ' arious other teams. rhe - walloped the fast traveling Lan- caster crew in a very fast and furious game that surely opened the eyes of the school sport world. The Seconds of Warren next tried their luck but the Reserves scrambled them b) ' a double score in an easy game. Now came the testers of teams, the first five of the V an Buren High School, but the Sc ■ld- ings were placing in fine form to nearly double the score on the invaders. For their fourth straight win the Sec- onds badly maimed the Junior Tigers from Peru in an eas ' contest by almost tripling the score on the Peruvians. Here Union Center, a ranking county team, came along and mixed things up b ' handing the Seconds a decisive set- back in a rough, hard fought game by a big score. The Marie ' B ' s at- tempted to sting the Scyldings into sub- mission in a special benefit game but the Scyldings used Field Goal Heali.ng Balm and hence swamped them with the big score on Huntington ' s side. .Another battle royal was staged with the local Junior ' Celts. It was a see-saw affair and the Seconds barely copped a one-point win. Paffe XCIV li :yldiii| Playing the Inst ten minutes with four men, Coach Cook ' s men proved their mettle in losing by onlv two points after forcing Warsaw to the limit to win. The raging Scvldings completelv swamped the Rock Creek (Wells County) team hv a doubled score. -After this performance the moniker, Scyldings, was attached to the Reserves. Fortified by their new name, the Scyld- ings boldly entered the invitational Second Team Tourney at Frankfort but a bad slump wrecked havoc with their chance and the Logansport B ' s put them out in the first game. The Decatur Seconds also enjoyed a win at our expense in a hard fought game while Rock Creek gained revenge by a small margin for their former defeat. The dope was against them but the Junior Vikings went right ahead and gave the touted North .Manchester Sec- onds a good drubbing. They ne.xt took on the tough Tipton Reserve crew and defeated them b ' two points. Playing a fast stead - game the Scyldings enjoyed the Wabash Junior five in a well played preliminary and emerged the victors by a good margin. The Baby Eaglets of Columbia City were captured next by a small surplus in a swift battle. The fighting Scvld- ings had a tough time on the floor at Union Center and the score was more than doubled on them. In one of the hardest fought games of the season the Scylds were subdued b - the Lafayette B ' s in a tight defensi e game by a 16 to 6 score, the smallest of the sea- son. In their last game the noble Scyldings went down to a glorious de- feat before the Bluifton Seconds by a two point margin. Sc ldinijs! We salute thee!

Ufheil FOR the second successive year the sectional tournament was held in the com- modious Warren High School g •m at Warren. Because of the disastrous results of the tourney last year, the Vikings were absolutely determined to regain the County Championship and the Courthouse as well for Huntington. With this in mind several practices were held in the Warren g) ' m and as only eight men of the first ten could play in the sectional, the playing at Warren determined the selection of the lucky ones. Captain Petrie, Miller, Coble, Enyeart, Brebaugh, Hosier, Burgwald, and Welch upheld the name of H. H. S. in the eliminations. Rock Creek was defeated in the first game after a hard fight. In the next round Banquo held the faltering Vikings to a three point win and this margin was only made in the last few minutes. Union Center, Sectional Champs and picked by many to bump the Sea Rovers was swamped by the revived Vikings in a fast game. Aw, Clear Crick ' s got a snap of it tonight, said one farmer and so many thought, but Huntington pinned its faith on Coach Kriegbaum and its players. The team came on the fioor late at the expense of Clear Creek ' s nerves. The Vikings grabbed an early lead and retained it to the final gain by the best of playing and by the wisest of generalship. The 24-22 win was sweet to Huntington and it amply avenged last year ' s three point loss. The Vikings went to Logansport for the regional and met the Berries in their first tjame. After a general slump in the first halt the Norse came back fast in the second section but the big Logansport leatl could not be overcome and the Viking ship was lost. Page XCVI It- «i 1 standing : Hosier. Jordan, Coble, Sutter, Chevalier, Welch, Newell. Hosier, .lay Kneeling : Kriegbaum, Overmyer, Petrle. Kitt, Brebaugh, Fryer, Moore, Xie WITH an experienced squad of sluggers on hand, Coach Kriegbaum started another successful baseball season. Only two positions needed to be filled, — right field and first base. The lanky Welch guarded the initial bag while subs alternated in the garden position. The pitching staff was weak at the first of the season but R. Hosier and Newell, relief hunters of last gear ' s nine, soon showed that they could hold the opposing hitters safely. F. Hosier was the hurling find of the season. Only a Freshman, Feck went out and showed them all how to strike out big colored Babe Ruth with bases full and two down. The infield, with Captain Brebaugh, Petrie, Coble, and Welch, was a bunch of bat wielders who played airtight ball and frequenth ' caught the runners off guard by a snappy double pla -. The outfield was composed of such artists as Fryer, Suter, and Jay. This group was a constant terror to opposing slab artists. Fryer, one of the fastest men to play in the outfield for Huntington, frequently fooled the batters by playing close in, then running way back to gather in a long fly that seemingly was good for extra bases. Clear Creek, the first victim of the Norse, was subdued b ' a 5 to 2 score. Rain stopped the whitewashing of Roanoke in the fifth inning with the score 1 9 to in our favor. Central of Fort Wayne pounded out ten hits — one of them a home run with one man on base, while the Vikings got five singles for a final score of 9 to 5 in their favor. Captain Brebaugh, third base; Williams, catcher; Coble, shortstop; Kitt, catcher; and R. Hosier, pitcher, have played their last game for H. H. S. Page XCVIII ff I ' uuk. Slieiier.

Rice Track WITH (inly one dashman, a distance runner, and a hurdle man left from last year ' s star team, Coach Cook began light practice early in March to develop an all around group of cindermen. Fryer, ' oung, and Welch formed the veteran nucleus for the team. After a few practices the team proved to be a dependable bunch of second and third place getters and gradually through intensive practices the latent ability of the younger members came to the surface. The first test with Peru in which we were swamped, showed the defects and these were corrected for the Countv Meet the last of April when Huntington de- fended the cup won last year in the meet. Besides H. H. S., Andrews, Bippus, and Huntington Township had their star entrants from the respective schools. Although the cool wind chilled the runners, good time was made in the events. Huntington took the lead by the stellar work of Fr er in the dashes who took two firsts and a second but in the field events Township and Andrews copped and tied the score. In the mile and half mile runs Township took the lead while Andrews and Bippus dropped out because of lack of entrants. In the hurdles Welch had bad luck and was disqualified. Township had a lead of 6 points with only the high jump to go but Burgwald jumping in his street clothes, tied with Whitelock for first place in the high jump and this won the contest for H. H. S. In an extra event our relay team swept the mile and half mile relays and set a new coimty record for the half mile. The scores were Huntington 64, Township 59, Andrews 25, Bippus 8. Coach Cook will have excellent prospects next year as all except Fults and D. Blackburn are Juniors and Sophomores. Pajre XCIX Tennis WITH a vision of the state title before their eyes, the Huntington High School tennis team plunged into its first season as the honored bearers of the Red and Black colors. Although this is the first year for the net game here, it is expected to be an auspicious one because every member of the team is an experienced player. Last summer these boys, representing the citv of Huntington, placed several other neighboring cities and won most of their meets, although gen- erally playing against older and more experienced men. The enthusiasm for the sport came to a head this year, and as a result of the previous summer activity, tennis became a new spring sport. Coach Kriegbaum gave the team rigorous training to de ' e]op the stamina needed in such a swift, hard game. Difficulty was met in finding a place to practice and to hold games; but finally the Morrison Courts were obtained, and a good workout was enio -ed by all in the leveling and packing of the grounds. Due to the newness of tennis on the school sport curriculum, a hard schedule was difficult to obtain; but two matches each were booked with Central of Fort Wayne and BlufiFton, and other matches with Roch- ester, Marion, and Hartford City were sought. If these schools are subdued then H. H. S. will make a strong bid for state honors and perhaps Middle West laurels in the annual tennis tournament at Ann Arbor, Michigan. H sweaters will be given Kindler and DuHadway, while letters -will be given Burgwald who received a sweater in basketball, and Ufheil who was ariven a sweater for football. Page C Biirgwald Enyeart Miller Kindler Kline Warkeiitien Holsworth Class Tournament FOR the third consecutive year the class of ' 28 won the interclass tournament bv defeating each of the under classes in easy games for a perfect record of three games won and none lost. The frisk ' young Sophorpores came in second by defeating the Juniors in an upset game, and panhandling the Freshmen while taking a single from the mighty Seniors. The Juniors third positon came as a result of defeating the Freshies and losing to the Seniors and Sophs. Fourth place was won by the small but swift Freshies who lost all their games. The tournament this year was held before the regular basketball season instead of after, as in former years, so that the coaches could look over the prospective material and select the best men to try out for the varsity teams. Gordon Cook was in charge of the tourney and also acted coach for the squads. Those contests saved much time and trouble for the coaches besides being sport for the players and fans. Enyeart, Miller and Burgwald later gained fame for themselves bv the pep and ginger they put into their playing on the Vikings while Berringer, Kindler, and Warkentien made themselves known through their classy playing with the ' ' Celts. Miller was an all-sectional forward in the eliminations at Warren while Kindler was all-state center in the 125 pound tourney at Muncie. The members of the teams were: Seniors: G. Miller, Captain; En eart, Kindler, Berringer, Holsworth, Burg- wald, Kline, and Warkentien. Juniors: Newell, Captain; Hosier, Shideler, Barnhisel, Ufheil, Heaston, and Whitelock. Sophomores: R.

THE Girls ' Athletic Association was reorganized at the first uf the school year to carry on the work so capably started by the organizers of the club last year. The first official act on the program was the election of officers in which Lena Johnson was elected President; Marjorie Bayless, Vice-President; and Marian Lind, Secretary-Treasurer with Miss Cleo Dale Phillips as Faculty Advisor. It was decided that a constitution should be drawn up and Joseph ine Hawkins, Wanda Shipley, Marjorie Bayless, and Lena Johnson were selected to do this important work. Another committee consisting of Gertrude Peting, Martha Dungan, and Arzetta Brickle ' selected a distinctive pin for the members of the organization. The first social event of the season was a marshmallow-weiner roast held at Memorial Park. ' Twas said to have made several converts to the wild Gypsy life. A number of business meetings were held during the winter and then the last of April a potluck supper was enjoyed in the club rooms. This is cnl) ' the second year for the organization but it has grown rapidly, lyast year the membership totaled 24 while this year it has more than doubled and now over 60 girls answer the roll call. The organization is sponsored by Indiana Lfniversity and has a statewide membership. .All chapters are under a standardized point system. Those qualified for membership must have earned a minimum of 100 points and must have passing grades. The points are earned by making a gym class team in volle ball, baseball, basketball, tennis, skating, hiking, and swimming. Special points are given for various activities such as the Leaders Class and by passing special tests. Home health rules are observed such as eating regular meals each day, brushing the teeth twice daily, and getting eight hours sleep each night. Pase CII .■ t.iiidiii;; ; FiLikriis. Wul.tr. Kuiii: .

Siiarks, Ewing s bwimmmg THIS year Miss Phillips, the girls ' athletic director, again obtained the use of the beautiful Egyptian swimming pool in the Hotel LaFontaine for the girls swimming club by the courtesy of Mr. Fred Bippus. The club was organized last ear and members were recruited from the girls ' gym classes. It was so suc- cessful then that it was decided to have the club again this ' ear. Before joinina; the splashing class, the girls had first to take out a membership in the Hoosier Swimming Club that is sponsored by the hotel. After this was done the only other requirements was a quarter each time the class went in. The swimming club is very valuable to the girls of the hi h school. The best advantage is that swimming exercises all the dormant muscles of the body and is especially beneficial to those muscles that are not called to use in ordinarv sports. Another important thing is that it tends to regulate the weight of the body. The members of the club are fortunate that they get to practice in such a spacious, sani- tary tank not to speak of the beautiful surroundings that make it s pleasant f or all concerned. The classes were held each Wednesday after school and this afforded a welcome break in the monotony of the school week. As manv of the girls were quite pro- ficient in the art, they went ahead and studied fancy and plain diving and water tricks under the direction of Jolly J. Barr, swimming director at the hotel. Others who were getting their first taste of swimming practice under the personal direction of Miss Phillips and by the end of the year every girl was able to take care of herself in the water. Miss Phillips and the girls enjoyed the water games thoroughly and if possible the - intend to organize another class next vear.

EA, verily, ■erily, I say unto you: Do unto others first before they do luito you. With these words the venerable Class of ' 28 was sent forth to crash open the portals of that famous institution of learning known as Huntington High School. With much tearing of hairs and gnashing of teeths they took up their scholarh ' duties with an ardor that astounded their instructors. In their ranks were athletes, scholars, statesmen, and those known as dumbbells. There ' s Coble, for instance, who made himself famous by taking a special course in football given b ' a correspondence course from Knute Rockne. Jilh ' Ufheil, who is noted for his ear to ear grin in Ipana toothpaste ads, acquired this bv having ■ a perpetual smile on his face when he passed the girl ' s corridor. Marjorie Bavless who astoundctl the teachers hv her profound wisdom and learning. L man Kitt, our sedate and statelv Hi- ' ' president. Alice Ditzler also went in for politics and procured herself the office of State Sunshine president. There are numbered in this class manv more too numerous to mention here, who ha ' e made for themselves a place in the memory of man - of us who know them. Soon after their advent into this institution they were bewildered by the many strange sights and sounds, among them being the sound that strikes fear to the stout- est heart among them — the signal calbng them to auditorium. With a tremor of fear and fast palpitating hearts thev betook themselves thither and thence and listened to the discourse of Charles Emorv, the fearless. Many times since then have thev been called on a like mission, but it holds no terror for them as did this fearful daw Many toil-filled days did thev labor and sweat over Caesar and his arguments with the enem ■. Long nights did the - spend with Algebra and Geometrv, and finalh ' they entered into their last vear of school. Now that thev are Seniors the handling of school affairs would simplv be turned over to them. The halls where the ' had seemed so afraid and so lonesome and abandoned were now traversed with a dignit ' only a Senior can attain. They kidded the Freshies and dropped into the office once in a while to see that the affaires d ' ecole were being properlv handled, and to chat with Mr. Byers. It so happened that time went on, as it has a habit of doing, and Commence- ment time was here. In due time with all pomp and ceremony the children were issued sheepskins and advice galore. The • were pawed over, wept over, raked over, and knocked over, and then equipped with weapons which their instructors thought were suitable for them to use in the hard battle of life, and in the gaining of their livelihood. And so it came to pass that another class had passed, and we doubt very much if we ' re going to be able to reopen the school next year due to the loss of such a capable class in relieving the instructors of their responsibility of handling school affairs. Thus ye have, we being in sound mind and body, the story of the matriculation and transition of the Class of ' 28 — and oh, iv wf a class!
