HE MODULUS Garl Rudicel 3Y two organizations, the pupils of Hunting- ton high school are duly represented. The ' arent-Teacher Association and the Student ouncil are the groups before which problems f the school are brought. As replica of the National „. , „ ongress, the Student Council ' as chosen and assembled to de- ide the weighty matters of the overnment of High School, ' he representatives and their Iternates were elected by spon- 3r groups. Max Rudicel was elected ' ' iee-President of the Student ouncil at the first meeting, here was some irregularity in the election be- iuse a president was not elected. Mr. Byers ' ill act as this officer since most of the work ctually falls on him. Jean Adams was chosen ) be secretary for the year. The members for the different sponsor 3oms are as follows: Elizabeth Ewing, Miss .lice Kline ; Kathryn Morrett, Mrs. Templeton ; acob Kitt, Miss Thraikill ; Frances Doudna, Miss eraldine Brown; Jean Adams, Miss Cage; Willis [osier. Miss Beatrice Brown ; Pauline Haneline, [iss Emma Kline ; Fred Dick, Miss Hoffman ; larl Wiley, Mr. Brown ; Tom Wasmuth. Miss upert ; Eleanor Beaver, Miss Moore ; Kenneth ;alzer.

Two important committees were selected to help make the school have a better appearance. Wilma Lobdell, chairman ; Kathryn Morrett. Ken- neth Balzer and Anna Louise Miller compose the committee to look after the announcements on the boards. If the announce- ments are not erased soon after the news is stale this group will see tnat they are taken from the announcement place. This is to save some students from going to the meetings about a w. w. Lucas week late. The other committee is to take charge of the display case. Tom Was- muth, chairman ; Cloyce Nichols, Frances Doud- na, Joseph Moore, Dick Book, and Elizabeth Ew- ing make up this group. As was decided last year, there will be one way traffic on John street. The students are also asked to refrain from smoking in sight of the school building. At the first meeting of the Parent-Teachers ' Association, Garl Rudicel was elected president of the organization, with the other officers being, W. W. Lucas, vice-president, Mrs. C. U. Jackson, secretary, and Hale Bradley continued as treas- urer. The Association has done many valuable things in the past, such as buying uniforms for the band. As yet the organization has done noth- ing this year. At the first meeting, a very inter- esting lecture was delivered by Dr. 0. U. King on The Care of the Teeth.

THE MODULUS High and Dry UNDER the leadership of Frederick Hosier, President, Louis Lichtsinn, Vice-President, Willis Carroll, Secretary-Treasurer, and Max Ru- dicel, Sergeant-at-Arms, the Hi-Y resumed its ac- tivities for the coming year. The meetings are held regularly at the Y. M. C. A. once a week, either with a banquet or a busi- ness session. Several activities have been plan- ned for the organization to be carried out in the coming seasons. Among the first was the selling of programs at the Homecoming football game. These pamphlets gave the names of all the players, their weights, nuinbers, and all the other necessary information so all the girls were able to identify their flames under the disguise. Perhaps the most important of activities was the Older Boys ' Conference at Kokomo. Thanksgiving vacation. Many boys signified their intentions for going to the convention, but a few decided that a vacation was a rare privilege and to stay at home and catch up on their note- books and sleep. Those boys who really went were Louis Lichtsinn, Freeman Guest, George Streeter, Jack Circle, James Branyan, Robert Slater, Robert Barnhart, Hugh Hartman, Donald Snider, Billy Coolman Glenn Rickert and Keith Shock. Inspirations were floating around free, with some of the most noted speakers in the coun- t r y addressing the boys. Dr. Henry Crane, of Scranton, Penn- sylvania, was the main contributor on the program, with the other ones being Roy Sorenson, of Chi- cago, George Campbell, of St. Louis, and H. C. Herman, of New York. Besides the assemblies, there were group m e e t i n g S con- Hi-Y officers: Rud ducted by the older boys. The Huntington Clul asked for the convention next year, and the in- vitation was accepted by the representatives. The new members in the club this year are Clifford Miller, Kenneth Roudebush, Darwir Forst, Glenn Rickert, Cloyce Nichols Maurice Wright, Joe Moore, John Mc- Clure, James Meier, Robert Miller, Al- lan Meier, Jack Dick, Kenneth Fahl Donald Freehafer, Robert Bitner, anc Edwin Boyle.

THE MODULUS We ONE of the two revolutions in 212 has contin- ued to the present by the rapid explosions of the Modulus staff. In order to have a more successful presenta- tion to the purchasers of the year book, the Mod- ulus will be published three times this coming year. This will make the book more interesting, because the printed matter will be more familiar. Under the direction of Mr. Day, Sponsor, and Miriam Dumbauld, Editor-in-Chief, the staff has been working industriously. The rest of the de- partment is composed of Consuella Eisenhauer, P ' aculty and Class Editor; Georgiana Redrup, Ac- tivity Editor ; Max Rudicel. Sports Editor ; Wyg- tle Smith, Girls ' Sports Editor ; Cloyce Nichols, Feature Editor; John Wann, Art Editor; Maxine Ade, Business Manager; John Spahr, Photog- rapher ; and Dorance Overmyer, Bookkeeper. Not only must we give the Modulus credit for printing a seasonal record of school activities, but they have co-operated with the School World in putting on a Revue. In the succeeding pages, there will be a description of the prison estab- lished in the auditorium. By means of the Revue, the Modulus will be financed without the use of advertising. This magazine is published to benefit the students, and the staff is working in hopes that standing: Nichols. Spahr, Wann, Overmyer, Sitting: Rudicel, Eisenhauer, Dumbauld, Smith, Redrup, Ade. they will like it. Of course, every one, as soon as he receives his copy, begins to leaf through to see how often his smiling visage greets him. This is one reason for having a yearbook, but another is that it serves as a memory book ; so v hen you are old and gray, you can leaf through the manuscript and see John ' s, Mary ' s, and Paul ' s pictures and wonder if they still chew gum so loudly, or throw paper wads or in other ways pur- sue the delicate pastimes of their youth. Now don ' t be disappointed if you fail to recognize in this issue the familiar grin that greets you through the mirror every morning, because there are two more issues coming, and in the meantime you may have achieved something to make you worthy of the honor. Huntington High School is the only one in the state of Indiana to try this plan, although some schools in other states have tried it and found it very successful. The idea is not merely a passing fancy, but will undoubtedly be perma- nent, since it gives a better service to the stu- dents than the annual. The director and staff of the Journalism department should be credited for their progressiveness. Last year the Modulus placed second in the state. It was off the general plan of yearbooks also, for it was smaller and more compact. The cover was a brilliant red with a green drag- on on it, which imme- diately attracted at- tention. This year the covers carry out the seasonal idea, with the first one being Christmas, and the other will be in corres- pondence with the time of year. Perma- ment covers will be furnished with the first issue of the Mod- ulus. These will re- semble the heavy leather covers on the other yearbooks. Page Fourteen December, 19S0
