777 c cLuJ 19 It Published by Huntington High School Huntington, Indiana Volume XXXV mm - We’ve passed through our training as Scyldings and are now leaving H. H. S. as Mod¬ ern Vikings. It’s been a swell school and we’ve had a lot of fun here. We, of the staff, hope that this Modulus of 1946 will serve to help you remem¬ ber the many eventful, plea¬ sureful, and inspiring events of the year, and that it will bring happiness throughout the years.

He put the school government in running condition. He looked after the finance and budget of the city schools and the maintainance of the buildings. Busy as he is, he always has time for a smile and a friendly word. “Wise to resolve, and patient to perform” de¬ scribes our principal, Harold S. Johnson. He kept the school affairs on an even keel. Mr. Johnson proved always willing to give aid and advice to every student. The term of a School Board member is three years. Their duty is to make the budget and supervise the employment of the teachers. The members this year were Frank Helvie, president; O. K. Ziegler, secretary; and Mrs. Ruth M. Dunkin, treasurer. Miss Fredith Langley was the quiet and unassuming secretary to the superintendent. She per¬ formed her many tasks well and was a favorite with all. Miss Imogene Snyder, secre¬ tary to Mr. Johnson, did a thousand and one tasks for the students, besides her usual sec¬ retarial duties. Imogene will be remembered as one of the people who made H. S. S. such a swell place.

Guidance The guidance department has tried a new idea this year. The detention room is a thing of the past. (Whew!) Of course there is a little matter of writing a. certain sentence a hundred times or so, to make up for the violation of rules. Yes, sir, the guidance department has been on its toes. Mr. Gordon is the guidance director and dean of boys. He also tests all incoming freshmen, makes freshman programs, issues excuses, counsels boys, and has charge of job placements. Mrs. Porter is the dean of girls. She issues excuses to girls and counsels girls. Mr. Burke serves as counselor to freshmen. Miss Kline helps sophomores; Mr. Gerdes, juniors, and Mrs. Hillegas, the seniors. A friend in need is a friend in deed. Janitors Emery Teller Fred Cussen Dennis Newels Our very able, good natured janitors were Emery Telfer, Dennis Nowells, and Fred Cussen. They kept the school neat and clean, something of which we were very proud. Page Twelve Senior Class Four years at Huntington High—and it seems that only yesterday we were wandering, wide-eyed, through the halls, looking up at those “b-i-g” seniors. Yes, the Senior Class of 1946 really has a difficult time realizing that this is their last year of high school. Most of us feel a little older. Living through war does make us feel older, more capable to face the tremen¬ dous responsibilities we know we’ll soon have to assume. In all four years the class has prided itself on its cap¬ able officers, and this year is no exception. Charles Ehing- er, Arlene Robrock, Tom Rohm, and Dean Stephan served as president, vice- president, secretary, and treasurer, respectively. The most outstanding af¬ fair, the senior class play, “Our Town,” was chosen by a committee composed of Nancy Herbst, Roger Kauff¬ man, Charlotte Rahn, Dick Windemuth, Janet Eberhart, Steve Carlson, and Peggy Doherty. The entire class voted in February to determine the class colors, flower, and motto. The motto chosen was the life motto of Theo¬ dore Roosevelt, “Do the best you can, with what you have, where you are.” Jonquil yellow and sea green were chosen as the colors, and the yellow rose as the class flower. Bruce Gerdes was unan¬ imously elected sponsor at the beginning of the year, and the class has certainly benefited from his time and effort. So, after four years, we leave Huntington High School with a sincere ap¬ preciation of the opportuni¬ ties it has offered to help us succeed in life.

FRED WARD REX YODER Donna Hart 1928-1946 Page Twenty-Six Juniors The best class of H. H. S. (Juniors, “natch”) had a swell time this year. The boys started things off by electing all boy officers: Ivan Wilhelm, president; Art Mil¬ ler, vice-president; Paul Warkentien, secretary; and Willard C a 1 e y, treasurer. Everyone agreed, though, that Miss Zahn would be the best bet as sponsor. Dick Bonewitz was general chairman of the reception. Coleen Diffendorfer and Paul Warkentien were co-chair¬ men on the dance com¬ mittee which was composed of: Keith Kalb, Bill Schnei¬ der, Norma Bowman, Mona Lou Kettering, Max Mc¬ Dowell, Gene Stroud, Helen I Brennan, Betty Kiefer, Joan Roush, Lesh Riseborough, Harold Schultz, Gloria Gelz- leichter, Beverly Richardson and Alice Schoeff.

Sophomore Class Tou can’t tell the Sopho¬ mores there are four floors; that the elevator tickets are $1.75 a semester; that the swimming pool is next to the gym, because they know better. The Sophomores have learned quite a few things since they were lowly Frosh last year. The Greek word “Sophos” means “wise.” They must be, because look who the class elected for its sponsor and officers. Mr. “Bill” Williams was unanimously elected sponsor; Jerry Hensel, presi¬ dent; Neil Markle, vice-presi¬ dent; Marianne McMillen, secretary; and Ned Slater, treasurer. Although the class didn’t do anything in the way of the spectacular, it had a good time. The class party, in the spring, had as head of the program committee, Thais Carl. The other mem¬ bers of the committee were: Janet Owens, Wayne Eberly, Virginia Zahm, Nick Lam- bros, Jack Cofield, Joyce Fanning, Howard Smith, Barbara Carr, Sally Lowey, and L. D. Williams. The cleanup committee had Ned Slater as its chairman, and the rest of the committee consisted of Joan Morrett, Marilyn Lofland, Ellen Cot¬ ton, Carolyn Hosier, Bill Snyder, and Bob Swihart. The food committee had Charlotte Rose as its chair¬ man, with Sally Overman, Marilyn Wiggins, Martha Ginrich, Bob Rowe, Bob Glenn, Bettylee W e i n 1 e y, Norman Cozad, and Orville Kern as her helpers.

Coach Bill Williams in his fourth year at Huntington, produced an excellent de¬ fensive team and a bunch of boys that gave all they had for every minute of every game. Several of the losses sustained by the Vikes were close, see-saw battles that could have easily gone the other way. The ’45 edition of the Norse football machine lacked scoring punch; and although they outplayed their opponents in a majority of their games, quite often they muffed scoring opportunities which would have won the decision for them. The Vikes were decisively beaten in only one game. That was to a Peru team, overwhelmingly superior in weight, by a score of 19-7.

G.” won numerous honors. Among these were honorary captain of the team, unanimous choice to the Central Indiana Conference first team, and a berth on the all-state third team. Wogan was shifted from tackle to end at the start of the season and proved he could be depended upon at either position. His defensive work turned back many a determined enemy thrust, and his downfield blocking was another strong point. Bob Luce was Huntington’s leading ground- gainer in the ’45 season and a back with a high muzzle velocity. When “Gusho” blazed out of that “T” formation with all his speed and all his drive, he was a mighty tough customer to stop. This was Luce’s third year of varsity ball, and he distinguish¬ ed himself on the gridiron so honorably that his performance earned him the left half spot on the all-conference first team. A scrappy, pepperbox style of play overcame a lack of weight in the case of Bob Morris and made him a very valuable man in the Norse line-up dur¬ ing the ’45 season. “Boagie” started the year at center but later was shifted to one of the guard spots. At either position the little redhead always played such a bang-up game that he deserved, and was awarded, a berth on the all-conference first team. Don Williams transferred to Huntington High from Huntington Township in time to play two years of varsity football. Although handicapped by an injury early in the season, “Butch” came through for the Vikes in great style every minute he played and was elected to the all-conference second eleven. Williams was probably the most adept pass-snatcer on the Viking squad. Rex Yoder filled the right tackle position in a very capable way for the second straight year. “Radar” played his fourth year of football and really made things hot for anyone who tried to make his way through the right side of the Hunt¬ ington forward wall. Ed Herran was benched by an injury through a large part of the season but recovered in time to start the last several games, “Coon” missed out on football in 1944 when he broke his leg during the previous summer. When he finally did break into the line-up, during the last few games, he gave a good account of himself. Gene Hart, after having skipped football during his sophomore and junior years, came out for foot¬ ball as a senior and cinched the right end position. “Redeye” was a smart and aggressive player that smashed many an enemy play aimed around Ms territory with vicious tackling. Dexter Whitted was another boy who didn’t come out for football as a sophomore or junior, though he was an outstanding prospect as a fresh- Page Forty-Eight man. In his senior year, however, the big towhead became a defensive bulwark in the Huntington line at the tackle slot, and frequently he could be found in the enemy secondary throwing someone for a loss. Joe Burkhart won his fourth major letter in the gridiron sport and was a handy man to have around for hard charging and whiplash arm. Re¬ currence of an old injury kept “Jody” out of several games; but in every game he played, he used his coolheadedness and skill to great advantage. Burk¬ hart led the Norse passing attack and was chosen on the all-conference third team. Tom Rohm was a regular starter in ’44 at quarter back but was shifted to left half this year where he was a constant threat. “Sluffy’s” drive and speed could be relied upon to produce a gain whenever the chips were down. Harold Oden came out for football in his junior and senior years and won a berth on the starting eleven in the latter. The short, stocky guard did a fine job of bolstering the center of the Viking line from his position at guard. Dean Stephan played his fourth year of football and gave the Vikings some valuable reserve strength. In spite of his small stature, Dean was a capable and willing sub with lots of team spirit. Marvin Priddy found himself at right half this year after having played three previous years of football at guard. Coach Williams moved “Possum” there because of his speed; and at right half, Priddy proved to be a fine downfield blocker and also an efficient ball-carrier. Priddy was shifted back to guard during the season when a weakness develop¬ ed there and his play at that spot merited him a place on the all-conference third team. Dick Meckstroth saw a lot of action at the fullback slot this season and the punching power he added to the Vikes was good for many sizable gains. “Meek” played his second year of varsity ball and seemed to keep improving all through the season. By the end of the year he was a major offensive threat.

The Vikes journeyed to Marion to swing their ' 45 season underway. The Giants, who later in the season were ranked high in state circles, had a powerful line and a stellar back in the person of Don Pettiford. Pettiford passed, ran, or kicked for all of the principal Marion gains, and the Giants won 12-6. Bob Luce was the only consistent ground-gainer for Huntington and gave evidence that he was going to be a real asset to the Vikes this year. The Norse touchdown came in the first period when Dex Whitted recovered a Marion fumble behind their goal. Hartford City, September 14. In their first home contest, the Vikes met a sadly outclassed but game squad of footballers from Hartford City and walked off the field with a 32-0 victory. Coach Williams used every man on the bench but Don Williams and Joe Burkhart, who were recovering from injuries. The scoring for Huntington was evenly divided with Bob Luce and Harold Shultz getting two touchdowns apiece and Max McDowell scoring one touchdown and two extra points. Wabash, September 21. The Wabash Apaches came to town and rode away with some new scalps hanging from their belts. The Vikings dropped a heartbreaking 7-6 decision to the Redskins. Hunt¬ ington drove to a 6-0 lead soon after the start of the second quarter when a pass from Joe Burk¬ hart found its mark in the arms of big Gene Wogan in the end zone. An attempted pass for the extra point fell incomplete. The Apaches staged a drive in the last quarter that took them from their own 24 up to and over the Huntington goal in shore, hard-earned gains. A plunge over the goal for the extra point gave Wabash its winning margin. The game ended after a long, fifty yard pass from Burk¬ hart to Williams had put the ball on the Wabash seven yard line. Warsaw, October 5. The Norse hit the road again today—headed up Warsaw way. The expedition brought only a stinging defeat. The Tigers spear¬ headed by Dick Dobbins, flashy left half, annexed a 13-7 victory at the expense of the Vikes. Dob¬ bins carried the ball over the sloggy field for the first touchdown. Dick Meckstroth crossed the War¬ saw goal several minutes later, but the play was called back. However, Huntington did get a touch¬ down in the last quarter, which ' gave them a short¬ lived 7-6 lead. The tally came after a vicious drive had placed the ball on Warsaw’s three. Fi ' om there Meckstroth chalked up the touchdown that had eluded him earlier, and Joe Burkhart kicked the extra point that looked like a game-winning lead. But in just five plays, Warsaw had charged back up the field and snared another six-pointer and conversion that iced the game. North Side, Fort Wayne, October 12. After having dropped several close contests, the Sea Rovers finally came out on the long end of one. A well-regarded team from North Side of Fort Wayne visited the local field and were assessed a 7-6 less. Huntington scored first with Bob Luce bolting over from the four-yard line early in the second quarter. Then the Redskins retaliated with Cowan going over from the five. A drop kick for the conversion failed. Some nice punting by North Side kept the Vikes at bay until the game was almost over. Then the Norsemen sailed all the way down to within one yard of a touchdown, but a fumble there was recovered by the Redskins. The Vike line and especially Boag Morris and Marv Priddy played an outstanding game, and the Indians never made a serious threat except on their one scoring thrust. But with the time rapidly running out, North con¬ nected on three passes, which took them to the Huntington 24, from where an attempted pass over the goal line fell incomplete as the gun sounded the end of the game. Central, Fort Wayne, October 16. One of the highlights of the season came when a highly-touted team of Fort Wayne Central Tigers were outplayed and tied by the Vikings at the local field. The Norsemen made an early scoring bid when they traveled down to the Central five-yard line the first time they got the ball, but there they lost the pig¬ skin on downs. The Tigers launched their attack at the start of the second half. A magnificent stand by the Norse line stalled the drive two yards away from pay dirt. Max McDowell skirted right end and swung back up the center of the field be¬ hind a whole hos t of blockers, but he was pocketed by his own teammates and tripped. Huntington out-gained Central in both the passing and running departments. Elwood, October 19. The Vikings raised their sails and journeyed to Elwood to meet a rapiuly improving Panther team today. When the battle smoke had cleared, the Norse had won 13-0. Tom Rohm racked up the first touchdown when he took the ball on a reverse and went 28 yards into the end zone. Burkhart’s Kick split the crossbars. The second score came when “Gusho” Luce swept through left tackle for 22 yards. Two other touch¬ downs by Luce had been called back for backfield- in-motio ' n penalties. The game was distinguished by some stellar Huntington line play. Particularly outstanding were Whitted, Hart, Wogan, and Mor¬ ris. The Panthers made a net gain of only 32 yards from scrimmage. Bluffton, October 24. Our Vikes added another win to their record when they muzzled the Bluffton Tigers in their own lair, 13-0. The game was noc nearly so close as the score might indicate. Three Huntington touchdowns were called back, and numerous other penalties and mishaps prevented the score from being much higher. Coach Williams’ boys gained 337 yards over the ground while hold¬ ing the Tigers to a net gain from running plays of 43 yards. McDowell scored the first TD on a 13- yard gallop around right end, and Meckstroth added the second when he burst through center for six yards. Peru, November 2. In their last game of the sea¬ son the Norse ran into a huge Peru Tiger and went down to a 19-7 defeat. The Peru line averaged close to 200 and had one boy who scaled in at 250. In the backfield the Tigers had Dick Hull, who, behind hard blocking, consistently ripped the Hunt¬ ington line into shreds. Dreschler scored first for Peru, but Dick Meckstroth came back to tally for the Vikes from the two-yard stripe after he had personally brought the porker 47 yards of the way down the field. Burkhart made good on the con¬ version to put Huntington in the lead, but the hard driving of Hull and the overwhelmingly superior weight of the Tigers was too much ' Looking To The Future The Rinkydinks, or freshmen football team, under the tutelage of Coach Oscar Naab displayed some rapidly developing football players in their three games this year. The Frosh played three games and won one. The Wabash Junior Apaches came over and annexed a 12-6 decision but the Frosh went right back to Wabash and evened the count with a 13-6 conquest. The other loss was to Blufftcn by a 13-0 tally.

He led the Vikes from the foul stripe in both percentage and total. His team spirit and constant drive were two factors that earned him an election to the all-sectional team and to the second five on the all-confer¬ ence team. Joe Burkhart was particularly known for his hot streaks in long shots. When Joe was on the beam, the meshes really took a long-range beating. A capable guard and an excellent defensive rebounder, “Jody was appointed to the all-sectional team and to the third five on the all- confercnce squad, as he completed his third year cf varsity ball. Don Carnes played his second year of varsity ball with the Vikas, having transferred from Richmond high to begin his junior year here. Don started a number cf games and was “sixth man” toward the end of the season. Don was outstanding for his graceful ball-handling and his under- the-basket work, which won him hon¬ orable mention on the all-scctional team. Page Fifty-Four Shooting Stars Dean Stephan finished up four years of ball playing at Huntington High and was a reliable reserve. Dean was an aggressive, hard-playing team man, and was an accurate shot from the floor. Marvin Priddy was another valuable reserve on the team. “Possum” was characterized by his scrappy play and team spirit that made him a real asset to the team. Dick Meckstroth. “Meek” was a valuable reserve forward on the Vikes this year. His decision to graduate in ’46 and join the Navy means a loss to next year’s team of a probable starter. Russell Buzzard finished four years of managerial work at Huntington High and was senior manager this year. “Buzz” worked long and hard and was a real help to the Coach.

The Norse, without the services of Joe Burkhart and Don Williams, started the season rather slowly. They dropped a thrilling overtime 31-29 to Warren in their first game and then came back to whip Warsaw 27-23. The powerful Wabash Ap ' aches were next on the list, and although the Vikes played an outstanding game, Wabash pulled away to a 45-38 win. The Rochester Zebras eked out a 40-38 victory on their own floor, and then the Vikes came home to lose again, this time to Peru, 33-28. On December 18, the Sea Rovers trekked to Bluffton and initiated a winning st reak that was to last through seven games. The hapless Tigers were mangled 49-33, then the Tigers from Alexandria proferred a 33-30 affair. The Vikes swept through their own four-way tourney on New Year’s Day by taking the Auburn Red Devils 42-30 and by ending an eight-game Wabash wining streak in the final game, 47-39. In the first game of 1946, the Vikes went to Burris of Muncie and slipped over a 32-30 decision on the Golden Owls. Following that, the Norse swept up the floor with the Decatur Yellow Jackets, 46-31. The climax of the Huntington winning streak came on January 11 when the Sea Rov¬ ers annihilated the Hartford City Airedales in their own kennels, 65-38. The Norse victory string was ended January 18 when the highly-rated South Side of Fort Wayne Archeres came to Huntington and went home with a 34-25 win under their belts. Clear Creek ' s Bull- Archers came to Huntington and went home with to a 57-24 defeat. Elwood’s Panthers took on the Norse at the downstate gym and stole a thrilling 43-42 decision from them when a Panther tipped in a shot with his back to the basket in the dying seconds of the game. Playing one of their better games, the Sea Rovers went to Marion and whipped the Giants, 40-35. Huntington began a three-game home stand by meeting the Central Tigers from Fort Wayne (who narrowly missed winning the state championship a month or so later). Bob Milton of the Tigers garnered 24 points, and Central won 36-28. Plymouth was the next opponent and the Pilgrims tasted defeat, 41-38. The Vikes beat an old Tipton jinx when they took the Blue Devils, 48-38. For their last game, the Vikes went to North Side in Fort Wayne where, after a bitter battle the Redskins won out 32-29. Coach Bill Williams 1945- 46 basketeers had their hot nights and their cold nights, but always they had plenty of spirit and the teamwork that has to be present in a good ball club. As before‘stated they were off to a rather slow start and didn ' t begin to hit on all cylinders ’till the latter part of the season. On the starting lineup Bob Hullinger projected his stature into one forward berth. He was a sturdy, consistent scorer and led his teammates in that department. Not too far behind him was Ivan Wilhelm, characterized by his flashy ball-handling and fall-away shots. At center the Vikes had two capable players, Chet Lohr and Don Carnes. Both boys saw a lot of action, and both turned in some nice performances under the baskets. At the guard slots were a pair of veterans, Joe Burkhart and Don Williams. Don’s foul shooting- led the squad in that department, and his scrappy all-around ball playing earned him many honors. Burkhart’s long flat shots and cool-headed generalship were the things that gave him his best of three seasons playing varsity ball. Dick Meckstroth, Harold Shultz, and Dean Stephan all started one or more games and were the first-line reserve strength. Rounding out the tourney team were Marvin Priddy, Ned Martin, and Paul Schock. Prospects for next season appear bright with three of the first five, Lohr, Hullinger and Wilhelm back, plus three of the reserves, Shultz, Martin, and Schock. Page Fifty-Six Tourneys Although the 1946 Sectional was one of the stormiest and powerladen in the history of the meet, our Viking squad came through, riding the crest of the waves. In their first game of the tourney, the Vikes met a Markle team that decided to pin their hopes on a possession game. The Eagles, in a vain endeavor to keep the score down, didn’t take a single shot until two minutes had passed in the second quarter. But the Norse came up to the occasion in fine style and beat down the Eagles 47-17. The next foe was an outstanding Monument City team that was almost the same as the one that had held the Vikes to a 36-30 decision in the ’45 Sectional. However, the Sea Rovers bolted to 48- 30 victory. Lancaster’s Lancers gave the Norse their hardest fight. The Lancers were a big, rugged team, whose zone defense was hard to crack; but when the final gun had sounded, the Vikings were on the long end of a 37-29 score. Saturday night the Norsemen met Warren. The Lightning Five had not had very stiff competi¬ tion in the meet as yet, although they had won a close contest from Township, surprise winner over Roanoke. But the Lightnings had taken an overtime from the Vikes at the start of the season. The game was not very old before it became evident which team would be the victor. Warren was struck with a new brand of lightning, and the Vikings won their 17th Sectional championship by a 49-30 tally. The Norse were entering the regional tourney as slight favorites when fortune shifted her smile. Huntington had enjoyed phenominal shooting throughout the Sectional, having hit on well over one- third of the shots from the field. Then came Saturday afternoon and the team hit a frigid streak against Berne that lasted almost the whole game. It was not until too late that the Vikes began to connect in something of their customary fashion, and the Bears maintained a slight lead to win 35-30. On the sectional all-tourney team the Vikes placed Hullinger, Wilhelm, Williams, and Burkhart on the first team, and Lohr on the second team. Carnes was chosen for honorable mention. In the Regional, Ivan Wilhelm was chosen on the all-tourney team.

The Scylds started out like a house-a-fire, winning their first nine games, which included a four-way meet at Columbia City, before losing to the Golden Owlets from Burris, 20-19. Naab s boys seemed to be best in the clutches and won many hard-fought close decisions. Their pepper and competitive spirit meant the difference in more than one game. The Scylding record is as follows: Opp. Scylds Warren 7 10 Warsaw 21 22 Wabash 9 24 Rochester 16 23 Peru 19 30 Bluffton 11 12 Alexandria 17 18 Burris Muncie 20 19 Decatur 20 24 Hartford City 33 21 South Side 25 10 Clear Creek 13 22 Elwood 24 22 Marion 17 29 Central 29 34 Plymouth 14 28 Tipton 16 18 North Side 18 23 Four-way Tourney at Columbia City Scyldings 23, Columbia City 21 Scyldings, 34, Decatur 33 Front Row—Wallace Robinson, Bob Trui.t, Mr. Naab, Bill Glasson, Charles Baughman.

The Greenies, coached by Dale “Pidge” Ware, had everything—height, speed, and the will to win. Let’s hope that these boys are still doing as well when they’re play¬ ing varsity ball two or three years from now.

Dale Ware sponsored the two leagues. In the American League, the Squirrels walked off with the championship by winning seven straight games. Other teams in the league were the Blue Devils, Supermen, Warts, Snipers, Eagles, Gremlins, and Young’s Young’uns. In the National League the Grid- ironers swept through five straight games to win the championship and trailing behind them were the Dirty Dozen, Satan’s Angels, Meat Balls, All Stars, and the Maulers. As preliminaries to the annual game between the graduating varsity men and the varsity players who will be around next year.

Pounding The Cinders Playing one of their fullest and tough¬ est schedules in many a year, the Hunt¬ ington track team displayed a well-bal¬ anced and sturdy squad of boys that sparkled with talent. In the first meet of the year, a three- way affair at the local oval that also involved Central and South Side of Fort Wayne, Huntington placed second with 30 points to 79 for South Side and 26 for Central. In the second meet, Peru sprinted off with first place on 76 points followed by the Vikes with 44 and Hartford City with 14y 2 . The Norse won thei r first dual meet by eliminating Chester Center 72-37 at Kreigbaum field. The first away from home meet was held at Marion and had teams from Marion and Wabash par¬ ticipating with the Vikings. The Giants copped this one with 79 points, Hunting- ton took second with 29 and Wabash garnered 20.

Sunshine Society The big event of the Sunshine Society was a convention of all the Sunshine Societies in this dist¬ rict, held here on the 17th of November, with over three hundred girls attending. Weeks of preparation by everyone helped to put it over with a bang. The Art Department made signs directing the visitors to the school build¬ ing. The Hi-Y nailed the signs to telephone posts down town. When the girls found our school, they were welcomed by a nuge sign which Mr. Michael made and hung outside the school entrance. Upon entering the school, the guests were greeted by Sunshin Gales who dressed in yellow and white and acted as hostesses. At the beginning of the program the band gave a concert. Nancy Herbst, the president of our Sunshine Society, opened the meeting, and Miss Knull, the dean of this district, gave a short talk. Evelyn Hammel and Helen Fahl presented musical selections, which were followed by a book review given by Mrs. Gail Lancaster. Traffic was stopped at noon when three hun¬ dred girls went down town for a luncheon at the Hotel LaFontaine. At the afternoon session, an initiation cere¬ mony was held for the new freshmen. The friend¬ ship circle was one of the unforgettable highlights of the initiation. A delightful tea was served after¬ wards in the school library. The Sunshine Society and Hi-Y continued an annual custom that began in 1927, when they again held an Easter Sunrise Service. Perhaps the one this year was one of the most beautiful and im¬ pressive. The Sunken Garden at Memorial Park provided an inspiring place for the service. The service was conducted on the steps before a back¬ drop of a cross. The worshippers were gathered below in the garden looking upward. Nancy Herbst, Tom Rohm, and Sam Kaiser took part in the serv¬ ice, and Rev. Sheets gave the sermon. Nancy Herbst was the Sunshine president. Colleen Diffendorfer was vice-president; Barbara Alexander, corresponding secretary; Marianne Mc- Millen, recording scretary; Peggy Doherty, treas¬ urer; and Miss Alice Kline, sponsor. Needlework Guild The Needlework Guild made clothes for the city-wide clothes round-up. June Funderburg, chairman, attended the city-wide luncheon. The guild had two parties and one potluck. They also sponsored a skating party to buy material for stuffed animals to send to the Riley Hospital. Miss Alice Kline is chairman of the organiza¬ tion. Mary White Guild The Mary White Guild was formed in memorium of the daughter of Edi¬ tor William Allen White, by Miss Ella Moore. In past years this organ¬ ization has been in charge of the Thanksgiving and Holy Week pro¬ grams. Betty Becker is chairman, with Mrs. Hillegas, sponsor. M. M. S. Marjorie Marx was chairman of the M.M.S. this year, and Miss Mary Sees served as sponsor. The annual Sweet¬ heart Dance was a huge success, with many oh’s and ah’s uttered over the unusual decorations. The spotlight, as usual, shone on “the heart.’’ You doubtlessly heard the announcement, “Stop for the pause that refreshes.” Peanut week, during the first week of May, was no exception to the suc¬ cess of an event sponsored by M.M.S. It featured a swimming party and picnics, and was full of surprises, candy, and newly made friends. Page Sixty-Six Patterettes The Patterettes are the “speakers” cf the Sunshine society. Mrs. Patter¬ son was sponsor of the group. Jo Funk was chairman. The group pre¬ sented their annual Christmas party at the Poor Farm. The tea at the District Sunshine Convention was given by this group. Big and Little Sisters Little Sisters and Green Day are evidences of the activities of Big and Little Sister Committee. A picnic, Chocolate Party, and Christmas Party were given for the freshmen. This organization sends invitations for the formal initiation and tea to the mothers of initiates. When the entire student body witnessed the ceremony, Betty Becker, Marjorie Marx, Jo Gilkison, and Kathleen Kel¬ sey were ushers for the friendship circle. Jo Gilkison and Kathleen Kel¬ sey are co-chairmen. Miss Lush is the sponsor. s. s. s. The S. S. S. is under the leadership of Phyllis Jay and Opal Sturdivant. A Christmas potluck was one activity of the group. Baskets of food were prepared to give away on Thanks¬ giving, Christmas, and Easter. A Mrs. Miniver rose is sent to any student or teacher who is seriously ill. Flowers are sent to the bereaved. Miss Emma Klme is sponsor of the Guild Gales The major event of the Sunshine Gales was their annual Christmas breakfast at the Hotel LaFontaine. Music boxes hidden in evergreen, and clever miniature angels for favors lent atmosphere to the occasion. Bonnets for the Easter Egg Sale were again concocted. Many unique creations and a goodly sum of money to donate to the Riley fund were the results. Gales officers were Janet Eberhart, chairman; Barbara Alexander, co- chairman; Patsy Medcalf, secretary; and Charlotte Rahn, treasurer. Miss Cage was sponsor.

Miss Modulus When the Modulus Varieties began their so far short but eventful career back in 1944, the honor of Miss Modulus was ordained for the girl who sold the most tickets to the show. The name, Miss Modulus isn’t all, however. The Modulus also gives space for a large portrait and a full page spread of pictures. So, on this and sundry other pages of the 1946 yearbook, (that’s this one, you dope) are pictures of one Miss Anna Marie Porter, who goes by the general Nom de Plume of Ann. In the first set of pictures we have Annie in her formal, as she looked on the big evening when she found out that she WAS Miss Modulus; Ann work¬ ing on the posters for the Senior Class Play, “Our Town”; Ann, Abraham Lincoln, and Dick Winde- muth, in that crder; Ann and various assorted mem¬ bers of her gang watching the Vikes win another basketball game; and Ann buying something at the Modulus Store (plug, plug). The next page of pictures shows our heroine at home. If you can’t tell which one she is, and what each picture is supposed to represent, you don’t deserve to know. That sad little girl who’s holding the record ' album in one picture is Marg Chenoweth, one of the gang, and the other gal in the pictures is one Miss Betty Porter, who is some relation to Ann, namely her sister. There were some more pictures of Ann, which we didn’t have space for—Ann dancing at the “Y,” (with Dick Windemuth); sitting on the steps, (with Dick Windemuth); and driving a car, (Dick Winde- muth’s, of course), but after all, we said a full page spread of ANNIE, and here it is—we hope you like our Miss Modulus, we do! -r Modulus Varieties Top Row—-Right Steve Carlson.

Page Seventy-Five Modulus Varieties For the second year, the high school Modulus Varieties took over the spotlight during the fall season, as the kids of H. H. S. put out one of the best reviews ever featured on the auditorium stage. Starting with the muscular peregrinations of the gals of G. A. A. (a tumbling act it was labeled, so as not to confuse the lay audience) the show progressed through corn, and other fodder and forage grains, to ham. (We’d better cease desist, after all, the Modulus DID sponsor the show). Seriously, the 1946 Modulus Varieties was one of the best shows of its kind ever staged in H. H. S. (or did we say that?) The guys and gals of dear old H. H. S. really buckled down, all the way from the Art Club and their advertising posters, to Ann Porter, Doris Miller, Pat Suit, and Peg Doherty, and their ticket sales, supervised by Nancy Paul. After the G. A. A. aforementioned Tumbling Act opened the show in a very lively manner, out stepped that handsome, dashing, urbane, smooth, polished, rapier witted, and at times slightly befuddled master of cere¬ monies, Steve Carlson. Then came Mike Peppas, and one of the great damatic dissertations for which he is famous “ ‘Steee-rike One! ' the umpire said.’’ Next was the choir, under the direction of Mrs. Vivian Bran- yan, and Kenny Bryant playing Summer Night” by Greig. The Biology research club brought to the stage a bit of practical phantasy in Huber the Tuber”, a story of the life and loves of a Tubercle Bacilli, which is com¬ monly known to most people as an ordinary germ. Max Truby, a meek and lowly freshman, filled the auditorium with romance and love as he sang The More I See You”, but Roger Kauffman and Beverly Bronstein neutral¬ ized the effects of the song with a little adventure into martial discord in the form of a skit, One Word Alone”. The play ended all right, however, so everybody was happy about the whole affair. Betty and Ruth Becker represented the Sunshine Society, singing a duet arrange¬ ment of My Sunshine Girl”, and the Jr. Masque Gavel harked back to the days of the Pilgrims, when men were men and women were glad of it, with that time honored story of Priscilla, John Alden, and Miles Standish, entitled Proposal by Proxy”. Evelyn Ham- mel and Melba Bailey held the audience spellbound with their piano duo of Deep Purple”, as did Helen Fahl, singing Till the End of Time”. Someplace in this section of the program came Roy Harsh and the boys of Senior Hi-Y (who. it is reported, have signed a four months ' contract with a burlesque cir¬ cuit) attained the heighth (or depth) of somethinf-or- other with their inimitable oriental dancing. It will long be remembered—with shudders by some. Another act that will be remembered with shudders, but honest-to-gosh dramatic thrills and chills this time, was Dick Morgan ' s dramatic and rather eerie reading, Sky Fodder”. And who would want to forget the French Club’s charming interpretation of Little Red Riding Hood ”, even if it was hard to understand the dialogue—You see, they forgot to translate into English, and it came out ' Le Petit Chaperon Rouge. Then there was the drum trio, and, as if that wasn’t enough noise, Dick Morgan and Art Miller had to go shooting off guns, getting the place all messy in the Masque 6 Gavel Skit, Seeing Double.’ Those of you who have read the preceding para¬ graphs will naturally know all about the Miss Modulus contest, and the charming Miss Ann Porter, and all that, so we might as well skip directly to the last act, Murray Hubley’s, Phil Monsey ' s, and Junior Christ’s trampoline act, upon the conclusion of which, Harold Thompson pulled the curtain, Lamoine Stults started a record, and the gang watched the audience leave with a feeling of mixed sadness and relief. The afternoon matinee we said, Well, that’s two to go.” We didn’t know it, but really meant three to go. The ticket sellers had done their job well—so well, in fact, that the show had to run for a third show the following week. As already said, we enjoyed giving the 1946 Varie¬ ties. We feel that we have done a good job, and given a good show. It was the last time on the auditorium stage for some of the group, and they worked hard at it. It was a swell time, it was a swell audience, and it will be a long time before anyone forgets the 1946 Modulus Varieties!

Honor Society The Honor Society is composed of students whose scholastic ability places them in the upper twenty-five percent of their class. The four requisites are: scholarship in regular curriculer work; leadership in school activities; serv¬ ice rendered to the school; and character or attitude toward associates. The senior students vote from the list of students of the upper fourth of the class. Fifteen per cent of the senior class are chosen. Five per cent of the junior class are chosen for the Junior Honor Society. A committee of teachers representing the faculty cast the final vote. The seniors of this group gave a picnic at Lagro State Park for the junior members. This is the twentieth year for this organization in H. H. S. This group should be congratulated for their constructive work in H.H.S. K. B. F. “Kiwanis Builds Forever” is the highest scholastic honor awarded to students in the upper five per cent of the graduating class. These students are not elected but are placed in this society ac- coridng to their scholastic record. The Kiwanis Club honors this group at an annual K. B. F. Banquet.

Senior Hi-Y The Senior Hi-Y shines as usual this year, with its purpose being to create, maintain, and extend higher standards of Christian character. The group elected Tom Rohm, president; the filler-inner, or vice-president to you, was Stan Pontious. Dick Morgan kept the minutes and posted announcements in the Hi-Y bulletin board every week. Dean Stephan served as treasurer and Mary Priddy as chaplain. Bruce Gerdes was the advisor. In November thirteen boys attended the State Older Boys Conference at Terre Haute. The annual hay-ride was followed by the Mother and Son Banquet and Father and Son Banquet. This year in the Modulus Varieties, the Sr. Hi-Y ' s interpretation of Salomie or rather Balonie, Where She Danced, brought down the house. Roy Harsh as Balonie was simply out of this world, that description includes the maidens of the chorus: Carr, Hansen, Beatty, Kauffman, Windemuth, Kennedy, and Pontious. Page Seventy-Eight I .Junior Hi-Y The officers of the Junior Hi-Y were Sam Kaiser, president; Neil Markle, vice- president; Jerry Waikel, secretary-treasurer; Jim Rusler, chaplain; and Bill Raub, program chairman. Boys from the Junior Hi-Y attending the Older Boys Conference at Terre Haute were Dwight Pinkerton, Dick Garretson, Gene Gilbert, Don Wogan, Ben Steward, and Jack Jones. An outstanding feature of the programs has been moving pictures. Two of the pictures were “Diary of a Sergeant” and “Life on Captured Islands.” Speakers on this year’s programs have presented many varied and interesting sub¬ jects, some of these being Attitude, Aviation, Fishing, Delinquency, and Hi-Y Courtesy. The formal affairs have been the Formal Initiation, Father and Son Banquet, and Mother and Son Banquet. The hayride was lots of fun, but not so formal. Mr. Wilbern is advisor of the organization this year. This is his first year at this position, and he deserves much praise for the swell job he’s done.

Senior Masque and Gavel The Senior Masque and Gavel still holds the reputation of being one of the most active organizations of Huntington High School. A student program was planned for each of the bi-monthly meetings of the club. The organization also participated in over forty one community programs. For the Modulus Varieties they presented a very clever one act play, entitled “See¬ ing Double.” Other plays given during the year included “Cornhusk Doll”, “Amateur Hamlet”, “Who Murdered Who”, and “While the Toast Burned”. The Senior Masque and Gavel has proven to the students of H. H. S. its talent. They had charge of daily Bible readings, monthly religious services, and daily an¬ nouncements. A play, “Life With Willie”, was given before the entire student body. Dick Bonewitz won the local American Legion contest and Art Miller participated in the Rotary Contest, as members of the club. Billie Ann Marquart and Richard Morgan were the representatives for the Junior Town Meeting of the Air, which was broadcast February 21. Officers for the year were Richard Morgan, president; Dick Bonewitz, vice-presi¬ dent; and Art Miller, secretary. Mrs. Patterson deserves a “distinguished service medal” for all the time and effort she so willingly gave as sponsor of Masque and Gavel. Junior Masque and Gavel The little brothers and sisters of Senior Masque and Gavel are better known to us as Junior Masque and Gavel. They have done quite well this past year. Occasionally a newscast was given which was composed by one of the members. Also the organization has charge of the announcements on Thursday mornings. A clever one act play was their contribution to the Varieties. The title was “Proposal by Proxy.” The Junior Masque and Gavel participated in the annual banquet of the speech club which was held December 27 at the Hotel LaFontaine. Mrs. Patterson gave much of her time to the development of the group as its sponsor. Jack Cofield served as president; Helen Stauch, vice-president; and Barbara Ziegler, secretary-treasurer.

We have heard the best in music under the capable direction of Delmar Wees- ner’s baton. The band has played for all of our home football and basketball games. They have added much to the enjoyment of auditorium pro¬ grams and pep sessions. Since the war is over and gas rationing has been lifted, the band has again accompanied the team and fans to some out-of-town games. The entire student body is always proud that they be¬ long to H.H.S. when the band swings out with “Charlotte Harbor Stomp” and many other of its rhythmatic numbers.

The band has played for activities outside the realm of school, among them being the Sunshine Convention, the state agriculture meeting, the Talk of the Hour Club, and the Hallowe’en Parade. A concert was given in each of the city schools. Also the band gave a program for the entire student body. The District Band Contest was held at Fort Wayne April 12 and 13. May 4 the State Band Contest was held at Plymouth. A 20th Anniversary Concert was held in the auditorium May 1.

Yes boys, girls also take part in sports. They do a grand job too. The G. A. A. (Girl’s Athletic Association) is the club of these sports loving gals. To qualify for membership, 100 points earned in athletics are necessary. The activities of the G. A. A. have been many this year. They sold Christmas cards, paper, ribbon, and stationery to raise funds. The trip to Wash¬ ington was a G. A. A. project. There were pot lucks and get-togethers. Two Volley Ball Tournaments were held. H. H. S. placed first in both. During the tennis matches, Marilyn Lofland took first place in the singles, and Barbara Alex¬ ander and Marilyn Lofland placed first in the doubles. The Archery Contest was held November 7. West Lafayette won first place, Marion second place, and H. H. S. third. In the state basketball tests given each year, Joan Herzog placed first. She shot 33 baskets in one minute. Letter winners this year were: Betty Hale, Rosa Lou Paul, Helen Brennen, Gloria Gelzliechter, Phyllis Williams, Lois Couch, and Marilyn Lofland.

Championship at Anderson, State A. A. U. Championship at Camp Atterbury, and the Nationel Y. M. C. A. Championships at Detroit. The Junior National Championship was held at Indianapolis. A Dolphens Trophy will be given at the end of the season for the most valuable and outstanding swimmer on the squad. The season will be climaxed by the awarding of letters to the members of both the Junior and Senior squads that score in the state championship. H Club The “Hercules Men” of the school are the fel¬ lows sporting those major 8-inch athletic letters. All letter winners are automatically included in this club. During the war, the H Club did its part by sending letters to all former members of the club then serving in the armed forces. The club also sponsored the annual H Club vs. Faculty basket¬ ball game which supplies the expense money for their H Club service letters. The officers this year were: Joe Burkhart, president; Dean Stephan, vice-president; Gene Wo- gan, secretary-treasurer; and Coach Bill Williams, sponsor. It is the Athletic Department’s desire that each H Club member should be a leader and represntative student of H. H. S ' , and help to uphold its many fine standards and traditions.

Booster Club This year found the Booster Club “rootin’ and tootin’ ” for the Vikes. The Booster Club squad was under the influence of Bob Carr, who acted as coach, and what went on in those huddles no ofie will ever know. His “right-hand” man was Charles Ehinger. The gal with the pencil behind her ear, who kept shaking the money box, was none other than Janet Eberhart. Bruce Gerdes did a find job as referee. Initiation was given for the benefit of thirty new members. The refreshments were wonderful! It was a shame some of the initiates couldn’t enjoy them. The next day at Sunshine Convention every¬ one wondered if the school grew garlic, or cured - Booster Club limburger cheese in the gymnasium. The club sponsored buses to most of the out- of-town games, giving everyone a chance to go. They were really fun; the gang did everything from group singing to playing “Valley Forge.” Our yell leaders for the season, who led the student body to back the team by cheering their loudest, were none other than Roy Harsh, Phil Monsey, and George Kuebler. The “Junior” yell leaders were Jim Rusler, Thais Carl, and Cozetta Neher, who did their best as it showed in the fine record of the Scyldings.

Almost every Monday, Tuesday, Thurs¬ day, and Friday at 6:30 kids flocked into school. Why? Senior Play practice for “Our Town” was running as scheduled. One of the first problems this play presented was the finding of an organ. Having haunted ah of the swap shops in vain, Bruce finally found an old unused one at his church. The organ, in turn, presented its own problems. It continually broke, and kept the fellows of the cast busy taking it apart to fix it. The work shop furnished two trellises, the only scenery (besides the twelve chairs, two tables, and two stepladders). In order that you may get a clearer description of what went on backstage before the production of the play, here are some facts: Mrs. Patterson and Bruce Gerdes were the make-up experts. They produced the rosy com- plexioned skin worn by Carlos Kennedy, to the rud • dy, red-nosed complexion of Simon Stimson, alias Jim Tobias. This work of making up the entire cast took about one hour and a half. The boys did their dressing in the “Varga Room,” otherwise known as Studio B. They had two lounge chairs, a record player, a card table, which served its true purpose, plus that of a dress¬ ing table, and oh! those gorgeous glamour girls (pictures, that is). The girls ' room could be very easily called Movie Town” because of the wonderful pictures pasted on the walls of Johnson, Power, Wilde, Cooper, Peck, and many others too numerous to mention. Of course, some of their own friends (ahem) weren’ bad either. There were mirrors, lounging chairs, and flowers. The boys of the cast sent the giris some daffodils. The time finally came for the grand opening. It affected different people in different ways. Some chewed their gum so fast and furiously it seemed they were at the races, some read over their lines, and others stood very calmly, surveying the scene with the attitude of having done his play so often that “What’s one more time?” The lights dimmed and the spotlight turned on Richard Morgan. Immediately two heads bowed, not praying, but just there following in the books in case he, or other members of the cast forgot their lines. In the first act the stage manager outlined the history of the town, which was Grover ' s Corners, N. H., and something of the character of its citizens. Then he stepped into the houses of the Gibbs and Webb families, substantial homes containing sub¬ stantial folks. The arrival was at breakfast time and the action carried through one entire day in the lives of these good people. The second act concerned the love affair be¬ tween young George Gibbs and little Emily Webb, and this culminated in a moving wedding scene. The third act was at the cemetery on the hill, where many of the townspeople were awaiting not “judgment” but greater understanding. Into their midst was led the bride, a little timid at first, a lit¬ tle wishful to go back to life, to live again with her memories. But she learned how impossible it is to return and how wonderful the hereafter. Bruce Gerdes directed the play and certainly deserves much of the credit for its huge success. Mrs. Patterson did a swell job assisting him. Members of the cast were: Richard Morgan, Roger Kauffman, Reign Shipley, Stanley Pont- ious, Betty Becker, Kathleen Law, George Kueb- ler, Joan Gilkison, Jack Young, Nancy Herbst. Steve Carlson, Edwin Porter Ayres, Jim Tobias, Vivian Brubaker, James Hansen, Carlos Kennedy, Dick Windemuth, Ed Herran, Phyllis Knight, Mar¬ jorie Marx, Nancy Paul, Janet Eberhart, and Suzanne Miltonberger. Billie Marquart and Charlotte Rahn were student directors. Carlos Kennedy and Ernie Stults managed the lights, which included the morning star, moonlight, spotlight, and general effects; while Herb Newell took care of the staging. Business and publicity were taken care of by Charles Ehinger, chairman, Roy Harsh, Phyllis Stover, Barbara Brahs, Wanda Wiggins, and Min- nette Will. The house lights turned on between acts, and to the lilting strains of Symphony” the Queen nominees glided down the aisles. Charlie Ehinger stepped to the microphone and introduced Nan Clark, escorted by Rex Yoder; Josephine Funk, escorted by Bob Broom; Gretchen Pohler, escorted by Gene Wogan; and Phyllis Williams, escorted by Dick Carnes. He then presented a gold loving cup to Gretchen Pohler, the winner, and the Queen of the Class of 1946. Ushers for the play were: Opal Sturdivant, Helen Martin Zimmeriee, Helen Everding, Carolyn Diffendorfer, Vivian Shaffer, Pauline Joy, Maxind Endsley, Nancy Everett, Arlene Robrock, Jo Anne Frye, Marilyn Weinley, Peggy Jo Horn, Evelyn Gephart, Minnette Will, Joyce Garber, Pat Welker, Peg Doherty, Joan Best, Betty Morris, and Wanda Wiggins.

Art Club Now that the war is over, the Art Club can began taking trips again. This year the members took a trip to Chi¬ cago in April. They were taken on a special tour through the Art Institute. They visited the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts, and saw the art exhibit at Marshall Field’s. Another highlight of the trip came when they attended the “Meet the Stars” radio program. A potluck party was held at the Waterworks Park on April 12. Officers for the year were: Barbara Brahs, president; Gretchen Poehler, vice-president; Roy Harsh, secretary; and Stanley Pontious, treasurer. Mrs. Roush was sponsor of the club. Choir Happy anniversary choir members! The choir is celebrating its tenth anni¬ versary. It was first organized in Feb¬ ruary, 1936, under the direction of Mrs. Branyan. There were 22 members then. Now there are approximately 40 mem¬ bers. The primary aim of choir work is to study the works of both old and recent masters. This gives the member an opportunity to get acquainted with all types of music. The choir sang at the Northeastern Conference which was held at Fort Wayne. Also they sang in the Modulus Varieties, at Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter. Each year the choir helps to make the Baccalaureate services more beautiful and impressive.

After a year of rest, “Le Cercle Fran- cais,” organized with Nancy Herbst, president; Charlotte Rahn, vice-presi¬ dent; and Patty Fling, secretary-treas¬ urer. The meetings are held the first Fri¬ day every month, and are open to all members of the French classes. These meetings are held at H. H. S. and at the homes of its members. There is no English spoken at these get-togethers. Roger Gesbert, a French war orphan, found that he had foster parents, twenty-five in fact; because the mem¬ bers of the club contributed shoes, shirts, and ear muffs for the clothing box; and chocolate, soup, and dried foods for the food box. These boxes were sent semi-monthly. Several puppet plays were given at meetings and for entertainment in language classes. Members made a stage, puppets, and clothing; and learned the different parts of the play. Mrs. Hillegas is the sponsor of this group. Biology Club This is the “buggy” club of the school. It is an organization of upper classmen interested in an advanced course in biology. Since there is not, as yet, an advanced course offered in H. H. S., an effort is being made through this club to study advanced biological prob¬ lems through lectures, motion pictures, and field trips. The Biology Club, for its part in the Modulus Varieties, presented the life and loves of a Tubercle Bacilli, which is commonly known to most people as an ordinary germ. The officers this year were: Carolyn Diffendorfer, president; Colleen Diffen¬ dorfer, vice-president; and Betty Porter, secretary-treasurer. Mr. Hummer is the sponsor of this organization. ife I_i T I L.-J 1 Front Row—Alan McKenzie, Joe Burkhart, Gene Drabenstot, Dick Wirt. Back Row—Rex Yoder, Mr. Burke, Dick Jackson, John Smith.

Back Row—George Kuebler, Jack Cofield, Bill Lauterbach, Orville Kern, Jack Jones, Bob Meese. Foremen s Club A club just newly organized this year, by Mr. Burke, is the Foremen’s Club. It is composed of boys who are working in the industrial arts department. One boy from each period is a foreman and does the job of a foreman in a regular factory. (If they were girls, it would sound kind of like playing house, wouldn’t it.) The purpose of the organization is to in¬ sure greater efficiency, promote safety habits, and provide foremanship training. Juniors or seniors with one term of bench work and one term of mill work completed, are eligible for selection. Audio-Visual Operators The Audio-Visual Department is under the capable direction of McCabe Day. They have shown many films here in H. H. S., at all city schools, and for different organ¬ izations. Carlos Kennedy is the chief operator. Students, after a period of training, assist in the showing of films during their study periods. Films shown are usually for certain classes and of educational value. Some were shown the entire student body in auditorium sessions and a few were for entertainment. Swing Inn The most familiar expression heard in the halls of H. H. S. is “Meet me at the “Y”. The Swing Inn, at the Y, is the central meeting place, for it is open every even¬ ing after school, two week nights from 7 to 9, and Fridays and Saturdays from 8 to 11. A featured attraction during the summer and fall was a floor show. Programs were presented by the members each Saturday night. Some of the outstanding celebrities were Mike “Jimmy Durante” Peppas, Bob “Carman Cavallero” Stratman, Bob “Frankie” Ard, and Ed “Duke Ellington” Beatty. This was the first year for the big new Swing Inn Room in the basement. The comfortable chairs, walls decorated with musical figures, low lights, coke bar, and juke box made the Swing Inn an ideal place to go after school and games. Ed and Mamie Sunley have given all of their time and effort to make the Y a swell place and are appreciated no end by every “kid” in high school. Besides keeping things running upstairs, Cleo Casper and George Young have been a lot of fun and help. A high school Swing Inn Board had Tom Rohm as president; Peg Doherty, vice- president; Colleen Diffendorfer, secretary; and Art Miller, treasurer. Front Row—Marvin Webber, Lesh Riseborough, Dick Windemuth. Back Row—Wanda Wiggins, Janet Eberhart, Joyce Garber, Joan Roush, Betty Becker, Edna Roudebush.

Back Row—Neil Markle, Dick Hendricks, Max Truby, Mr. Johnson, Ned Slater, Steve Carlson, Marvin Priddy, Don Carnes. Guidance Helpers Students also help in making the Guidance Department a success. Students helping in the Boys’ Attendance Office were: Dick Windemuth, Edna Roudebush, Joyce Garber, Lesh Riseborough, Ralph Bryant, Janet Eberhart, Wanda Wiggins, and Helen Martin Zimmerlee. Those helping in the Girls’ Attendance Office were: Joan Roush, Marjorie Repp, and Betty Becker. Student Council The Student Council is a very important part of Huntington High School. It is under the very able direction of Mr. Johnson, our principal. Two people are chosen by the students from each home room to represent them. One is the member, and the other the alternate. The most important duty of the members is hall duty. They govern conduct of students during the five minute period between classes. The council took charge of making the Old Clothes Drive a success in our high school. Officers for the year have been: Peggy Doherty, president; Betty Porter, vice- president; and Vivian Brubaker, secretary. Book of the Month Club The Book of the Month Club is composed of approximately sixty members. They have done a grand job this year. Over two hundred books were purchased during the first semester. The purpose of the club is to promote good reading, and to give students an op¬ portunity to build up libraries of their own at little cost. Books were ordered from two different book clubs. This made it possible for the members of the club to have a wider selec¬ tion of books. Some of the books ordered were: “The Green Pastures,” “The Hoos- ier Schoolmaster,” “Pride and Prejudice,” “Freedom Road,” I Never Left Home,” and many others. Any student in high school is eligible to belong to the club. Students who maintain membership for four consecutive months are entitled to select a free dividend book. Back Row—Colleen Diffendorfer, Miss McClure, Joan Gilkison. Front Row—Paul Schock, Dick Morgan. Front Row—Richard Morgan, Carol Lamson, Jane Ann Jacots, Miss McClure. Second Row—Roger Kauffman, Jean Leon- hardt, Beverly Bronstein, Marjorie James, Thais Carl, Marilyn Wiggins. Third Row—Steve Carlson, Ann Porter. Fourth Row—Josephine Funk, Elizabeth Eby, Mary Sornborger, Vivian Brubaker, Jean Meyers, Patty Fling. Back Row—Helen Fahl, Janet Owens, Joyce Mygrant, Barbara Shenifield, Lucille Runion, Joann Finley. Back Row—Tom Rohm, Richard Morgan, Dick Windemuth, Roger Kauffman, Mr. Gordon, Steve Carlson, Charles Ehinger. Front Row—Joe Burkhart, Gene Snowden, Ed Ayres. Actuariae On every other Monday none of the Actuariae members are at home. Why? On those nights they are attending a meet¬ ing of their club, either held at the school or at the home of one of its members. When they have meetings at the homes of the members, they usually have a planned social meeting. Book Week is under the direction of the Actuariae. During this week they sponsor book reviews and teach students unusual facts about books. This year one of their biggest projects was the sponsorship of a display of book- character dolls. Mrs. Ricker of South Whit¬ ley owns the coll ction. She herself has made the dolls to portray characters of well-known books. The Actuariae, made up of people who have worked as assistants to the librarian, Miss Charlotte McClure, is truly an asset to our high school. Miss McClure is also sponsor of the group. Junior Rotary Each month of the school year the Hunt¬ ington Rotary Club chooses a high school senior boy to be a Rotary member for the month. The high school members are chosen not for their scholastic ability alone, but for their civic interests, dependability, per¬ sonality, and manners. Each senior boy chosen meets with the Rotary Club each Tuesday noon for one month at the Hotel LaFontaine where he lunches with the members, enjoys the pro¬ gram, and learns the fact that service ranks above all. S ; ' V - Prophecy While sitting on the front steps of H. H. S. trying to write a suitable prophecy for the class of 1946, we were startled out of our lethargy by big bubbles floating down from nowhere. However, after further investigation, we discovered they were being produced by our prominent Professor of Science. As the bubbles came closer, we saw vague figures reflected in them. Hey! Look in that one. There is Charlie Ehinger sitting at the desk of the—let’s see—the sign says, “Ehinger Eagle Eye Gazette of Dry Gulch, Wyoming.” Charlie had just started to ted us his story, “From Newsboy to Editor,” when the bubble burst. According to the calendar on hi§ desk, it is now 1961. Whew! What a relief! Our worries are ovef- as long as Mr. Plasterer keeps blowing bubbles, and everyone knows he has more bubbles than Kellogg’s have Corn Flakes. Mirrowed in a large sphere floating by is “Proxy’s Paradise Permanent Parlour,” one of the elite “shoppes” on Fifth Avenue. The shop is owned by Nan and Rex. This is the only beauty shop in the world that uses “Radar.” The chief operator is Pat (I’m Waiting for the Ship to Come In) Jones, who is now giving Phil Monsey (a reg¬ ular customer) a super deluxe finger wave. The next reflection seen in the bubble is the Stork Club, Jr. (a branch of the renowned Stork Club) where the main attraction this week is Bob “Bounce Along” Alshouse, who is now replacing Danny Kaye. Mr. Kaye was stricken with St. Vitus Dance while singing his sensational hit, “Looking through the Knothole in Grandpa’s Wooden Leg,” from his latest show, “Petrified Forest.” Also on the billing are Hilda Feltman- garde,” accompanied by that world famous purveyor of Boogie Woogie (playing with both hands) Ed “Count” Beatty. We thought we might see more, but unfortunately the viscous mass which has re¬ vealed this glimpse of the future, struck the sun¬ dial and vanished. What comes here? You guessed it, another bubble There is Steven “Magna Cum Lately” Carlson, Harvard’s youngest professor, who is striv¬ ing to divide the division of the atom. So far his fame has been overshadowed by that of his col¬ league, Susie Miltonberger, who thoroughly under¬ stands the 1961 income tax blank. After 15 years of hard ( ?) study, Teat Wogan, Bob Morris, Harold Oden, and Robert Luce are still playing on Har¬ vard’s Frosh football team. They hope to retain their positions until they can collect their Social Security. (When did they ever work?) Momentarily we are flashed back to the Medi- son Square Garden Rodeo, where the first person we see is Gallopin’ ” Dick Morgan whose book en¬ titled, “Love Life of the Albino” had just been pub¬ lished. Gretchen “Boots and Saddles” Poehler is also a featured equestrian, thrilling jaded New York pleasure seekers nightly with her daring and skill. Gazing at the next reflection, we are attracted by splashing and scintillating music. It is Rilly Base’s Aquacade starring that fish in human form, Eddie “40 fathom” Roudebush. Others featured are Bev. Bronstein (from the high board) and Peg Horn and Joan Best (from a low, very low board). A nightly feature is an exhibition in beach-stroking (it says here) by Bob Reifert and Bill Land, wh.o are both proteges of that well known swimming coach. Luke Warm from Coldwater. At the broadcasting booth of the pool, we find Roger “Orson Welles” Kauffman, who is still plug¬ ging the Junior Jamboree. Oh, Oh! What is disturbing the symmetry of the choral design ? Who is that floundering around amongst the chorus girls with his camera at the ready position ? It is none other than Carlos “Flash in the Pan” Kennedy and his film carrier, Minnie “The Mermaid” Will, shooting some of the unusual shots for which they are famous. Aik? viewing this spectacular show are Betty Morris, Betty Hale, Selma Haneline, Marybelle Fishbaugh, and Maxine Endsley. In another passing bubble, we find John “Beach¬ comber” Fisher lolling on the white sands of the Isle D’Amouer, with his two favorite hula girls, Phyllis Jay and Helen Martin. In the background Pauline Joy, Jean Meyer, and Opal Sturdivant are seen weaving mats and stringing leis. “Fire-ball” has chosen this simple ( ?) life as a refuge from the Simon Legree Finance and Insurance Company, whose president is E. P. (Enter Pleading) Ayres. His able assistant and chief keeper of the whips is Phyllis Smith. Mary Lou Patterson and Evelyn Gephart, the other two members of the firm, are selling Charlotte Rahn a life insurance policy cn her Carr.” Peering into another bubble which is speeding by, we see that former food magnate, the King of Krogers, who has renounced his kingdom to become the Prince of India, Prince George. As we look into our magic bubble, we see two favorite dancers of his harem, scar’em: Roy “Baloney” Harsh, and Stan “Swivel Hips” Pontious, just finishing their number. On the Prince’s right is seen that old sea dog, Sinbad the Sailor Roush, ani! his mate in charge of the after-deck, Anita Stern. Everything is bright and clear, the sun is shining, and the birds are singing when suddenly came the Reign (ask Shipley about this). Following closely on the tail of this bubble comes another. This one flashes a scene of myster¬ ious China. Located here are two famous mission- Prophecy aries and a doctor, Jo Funk, Vivian Brubaker, and Marvin Priddy, who have spent many years in the Orient studying-, teaching, and curing. Dr. Priddy is ably assisted in his modern hospital by nurses, Marilyn Weinley, and Phyllis Stover, the present day “Nightengales” of China. Also visible in our mystic globule is an American Army installation, the toast of which is Nancy Everett. We see a .section of G. I.’s composed of Old Jack Young, “Speed Demon’’ Buskirk, Ernie Stults, Jim Smith. Herb Newell, Harry “Always-on-time” Townsley, Dick Jackson, Gene Drabenstot, Carl Christman, and George Biehl. These men are drilling and sweating under the roaring, whip-lashing tongue of First Sergeant Dean Stephan, the Scourge of the Orient, whose thunderous invectures cause this bubble to burst! The next scene is one of serenity and happiness. We see a church, the alter banked in flowers. The mellow tones of the organ, under the skilled fingers of Nancy Paul, weave a harmonious accompani¬ ment for the perfectly balanced voices of Betty Becker and Jim Tobias. As the song fades into stillness, Rev. Newman takes his place. We see coming down the aisle (at a fast gallop) Ann “I’ve got a man” Porter. Waiting at the alter (with the chain hardly showing) is Dick “I put up a good fight, Mom” Windemuth. If Ann hadn ' t hurried down the aisle so fast, the bubble might have lasted until the end, but it broke. What’s this reeling, writhing, roaring mass approaching? It’s a “Moto-bubble” inhabited by those dare-devil devotees of dangerous driving, the “Motorcycle Maniacs” Bob (Cycle) Hoke, “Scrap Iron” Thompson, and “Sidecar” Hendrickson. Their speed is so terrific that we have not more than enough time to recognize them before they dis¬ appear over the horizon, in vain pursuit of an errant bubble which has been performing aerPi acrobatics for the past few minutes, and which, we suddenly realize, is being piloted by Tom “Bird- Boy” Brewer. We had hardly calmed our nerves when W- noticed the sound of children’s voices, and the gentle cooing of doves and felt a warm balmy breeze blowing across our fevered brows. We were gazing into Utopia. Everywhere was sunshine, and flowers, and laughter. At the head of a lovely avenue of trim little homes, with fences, and things running around them, stood a large sign board, reading, “For Thrift, Schenkel’s Milk.” Any comments, Betty? As we gaze at this paragon of advertising ingenuity, we see some housewives re¬ turning from their daily marketing. Why do they look so familiar ? Where have we seen those flash¬ ing eyes and friendly smiles before? At H. H. S.! They were, before they jumped into the sea of mat¬ rimony with both feet, Doris Bailey, Phyllis Wil¬ liams, Vivian Shaffer, Wanda Stroup, Elizabeth Eby, Doris Walters, Pat Farley, Pat Welker, Pat Hirnise, Jeannine Vought, Helen Everding, and Arlene Robrock. On second thought, that’s just three tables of bridge. Maybe they weren’t market¬ ing after all. In fact, here comes Dick Carnes now, with his convertible loaded down with groceries. As this vision begins to fade, we see the modern farm home of Audrey and “Shotgun” Stephan. Their hired men, Arden Schenkel and John Smith, are milking and Audrey is churning. Our next glimpse into the future shows us a brightly lighted baseball diamond. It’s the “Knight” (thanks, Phyllis, just when needed) of the decid¬ ing game of the Rhubarb League. The cool play¬ ing of the SNOWden twins withered the standing of the opposition. The other players on this champ¬ ionship aggregation are: Russel Buzzard, Gene Dear” Hart, Fred “Psychopathic” Ward, John Poh- ler, John Hinds, George Kuebler (this must be a hangover from the Senior Play), Marvin Webber, and Bob “Whisk” Broom (used on home plate). Of course, Katie Hummer, Barbara Miller, Gloria Gil¬ breath, Barbara Brahs, and Jean Amick were in the stands lending their moral and vocal support. The next bubble mirrors a veritable beehive of activity. A large factory appears. Trucks rush in and out. Trains are switching. The hum of machin¬ ery fills the air. What is it? None other than the home plant cf “D ' ffendorfer and Doherty Dainty Doilies for Delectable Dream Dwellings.” As the vision fades, we see the owners busily working on their new spring line (line for doilies, that is). What is so familiar about the next scene? Why of course, it’s “Up Jefferson.” It has changed quite a bit but is still recognizable. The most noticeab ' e addition is the radio station “KORN.” The chief script writer and station director is Billie Marquart whose nerves have never completely recovered from editing the ’46 Modulus. However, Don Carnes does his best to auiet her jangled nerves. The stars of this county-wide network are: Nancy Herbst, Jo Gilkison, Mariorie Marx, Ed Herran, Handsome Jim Hansen, Bob Herzog, and Dick Meckstroth. On the other side of the street and down a little, is a new store, The Casehart Pet Shop. Sara and Janet specialize in pedigreed cats. Don Williams is their chief dietician. A little further we see the “10,000 Window Bakery” of Joyce Garber, who knows how to make dough. The main baker is Tom Rohm, who was never one to loaf, (whole wheat or rye?) Their main competition seems to be Joan’s Fry Shop, which specializes in doughnuts. Next, we see the Cloverleaf Creamery’s resplendent new building. Here we find Joe “Sealtest” Burkhart, after many years of diligent application to his job, the boss of the “Guinea Gang.” Looking further up the street, we see that famous Popover model, Katie Law, home for a visit between jobs. What’s this? We see Doris Miller Mong and Wanda Wig¬ gins. They seem to be trying to tell us something, but we can’t hear them for the bells. Bells? Oh, golly! That’s the four o’clock bell. Got to go now. ART MILLER BETTY KIEFER PATT BROWNE Inspirations by Bonewitz Bubbles by Plasterer Will We the senior class of the Huntington High School in this year of nineteen hundred forty-six, whereas we are leaving these, the hallowed an time-honored halls of our dear school, do, hereby and herewith, declaring ourselves to be of reasonably sound mind and having taken physical education for four years, before leaving this, Our Town, make our last will and testament, not because we have anything of great value to leave, but because there is no one using the typewriter this period and we have two pages of the year book to fill up. John Fisher leaves on a bigger and better vaca¬ tion. Betty Becker leaves the exuberance of her ver¬ bosity to Lee Lewto n. (Exuberance and verbosity, Lee, are both in the dic-dix-book that tells you how to spell words and what they mean.) Phil Monsey and Ed Herran leave for Bluff ton. Audrey Neher leaves for the farm as soon as Shotgun” gets back. Dean Stephan leaves his peaceful nature to Mike Umbriago” Peppas. Bob Luce leaves his quiet peaceful nature to Max Poling. Gene Wogan, Rex Yoder, and John Pohler pool their muscles to help Paul Kahlenbeck make the varsity next year. Dale Van Buskirk leaves his beautiful streamlined sport sedan to Margaret Chenoweth, who, with the mob she hauls around, needs it more than he does. Besides, Dale’s beautiful streamlined sport sedan has a faster pick-up for bushwacking”—pick-up, that is. (You can pick it up.) John Hinds leaves his being a jerk (soda, that is) to Sam Kaiser. Phyllis Williams leaves her unfinished needle¬ point to Patt Browne, Joan Roush, and Betty Kiefer to fill the long lonely hours of waiting for their men. Reign Shipley waves us a fond farewell with that tricky right ear of his. Speaking of ears—Jack and Gene Snowden leave theirs to their brother, Ned. This should be worth seeing! Hurleen Feltman leaves her hour glass” figure to Wally Robinson. Gloria Gilbreath gives her copy of Forever Amber” back to Mr. Barnhart. Harold Oden has already left. Dick Meckstroth is still standing on the corner of Riverside and Jefferson, flipping a coin. Pat Jones leaves her exhorbitant height to Mary June Sornborger. Janet Eberhart leaves to lose another week¬ end. Bob Herzog, Bob Broom, and Bob Reifert will probably be leaving for Tippy” with “Pooh-pooh Kettering. Parson” Newman leaves after converting the senior Bible class. Dick Jackson wills his curly black hair to Emley Burke. Gene Hart leaves a copy of 2500 Jokes For All Occasions” to Mr. Gordon—who certainly doesn’t need it. Carlos Kennedy leaves his senior cords to Esquire Magazine. Bill Land leaves his coat of tan to Dale Meekin. Dick Morgan wills his medals and his horse to Nick Lambrose. Sara Casey wills her secret of success to Lois Couch. Herb Newell is taking HIS secret with him. Gretchen Poehler wills her ability to play foot¬ ball to Margaret Chenoweth. Stanley Pontious wills an old pair of overalls, a milk rack, and an imaginary horse called Bessie” to anyone wanting to become a milkman. George Prince leaves his Handbook for Wolves” to La Moine Drabenstot. Edna Roudebush leaves her diary to Norma Bowman. Sinbad” Roush leaves a book entitled “100 Sure Fire Excuses For Absence” to the attendance de¬ partment. Dick Windemuth leaves his ability to get along with Delmar Weesner to Roger Sheets. Dick Carnes would be a fool to leave his con¬ vertible to anybody. Bob Carr leaves six oriental harem costumes tc Connie Coyle, Sally Lowey, Barbara Carr, Gloria Gelzleichter, Virginia Zahm, and Carolyn Petru- celle. Joan Gilkison leaves her baby talk to Ellen Priddy. Nancy Herbst leaves her welcome home” sign to Betty Kiefer. Roger Kauffman and George Kuebler leave their class rings to Jean Markle and Helen Fahl— respectively. Marvin Priddy—“Possum,” that is—leaves his safe driving record to one arm Hullinger. ( Oh, dear, use both arms.” “But I cant, I have to dri e with one.”) The economics class leaves Miss Ellis in peace. James Hansen leaves his pocket edition of “Strange Woman” to Jack Jones. Bob Alshouse wills his cheerful words of greet¬ ing and hearty smile to Harold Shultz. Jean Amick gives the Bell Telephone Company back to Mr. Bell. Ed Ayres leaves the bookkeeping department without someone to answer the questions that stump Mr. Gerdes. Doris Bailey leaves her oboe to her sister, Melba, who doesn’t do badly on it herself. Ed Beatty leaves seventy-six back issues of Flying Magazine” to Miss McClure and the library. Kathleen Law donates over 100 unused Our Town” programs to the paper drive. George Biehl leaves his french horn to Paul Schock. Vivian Brubaker wills her ability to go steady and still have fun to Barbara Towers. Russell Buzzard leaves his proficiency of get¬ ting along with his other student managers to Jack Weyler. Katie Hummer (now she’s a hummer dinger) wills her magnetic force of attraction to Mr. Plasterer’s physics class. Nan Clark wills a half used bottle of peroxide to Cozetta Nehr. Charlotte Rahn leaves her Job’s Daughters nightgown to Barbara Ziegler. Steve Carlson leaves his albums of blues, boogie woogie, and barrel house to Mrs. Branyan for her music appreciation classes and also a detailed road map of U. S. 24 between here and Andrews tc Joe Powers. Pat Hirneise leaves a slam book to Marilyn Lofland. Joe Burkhart, Carolyn Diffendorfer, Phyllis Stover, and Barbara Brahs sadly leave their jun¬ iors. Pat Farley McElhaney, Helen Martin Zimmer- lee, and Doris Miller Mong, on the other hand, leave quite happily indeed. Joe Funk leaves by way of Clear Creek. Wonder why! Wanda Wiggins leaves Dick Bartrom. (It says here!) Don Carnes wills room 210 to any boy lucky enough to go with next year’s Modulus editor. Charlie Ehinger leaves his Roosevelt buttons to Dick Bonewitz. Jo Ann Frye wills the R R, including Milford Toops and two dirty soda glasses, to Colleen Diffen¬ dorfer. Roy Harsh wills his mastery of jitterbugging to Ivan Wilhelm. Jack Young wills his ear-to-ear grin to Paul Warkentien. Anita Rose Stern leaves for Lancaster—the sooner, for her, the better. Jim Tobias wills his good posture to Nancy Ferguson. Harrison Townsley sighs, lights up, and leaves. Barbara Miller leaves her Pepsodent smile to Marianne McMillan (who already has a pretty one of her own, we think). “Sluff” Rohm leaves the pinball machines at the Lafontaine Hotel to someone with more money (or better luck). Betty Thrift leaves a bottle of hair tonic to Roy Lehman. Joyce Garber leaves amid long low whistles. Joan Best, Peggy Horn, and Ann Porter will their artful touch with a paint brush to the art editor for next year’s Modulus. (Let’s hope she won’t need it). Suzzie Miltonberger and Minnette Will have decided to let Mike Peppas inherit their friendliness. Don Williams leaves his dead-eye foul shots and basketball prowess to Chet Lohr, who will need it for the next basketball season. Marjorie Marx, who has been anxiously waiting for a troop ship to dock, wills her 100-mile-per-hour dash for the mail box to Betty Kiefer, who probably has one of her own. Arden Schenkel wills his scholastic endeavor to Jim Schacht. Boag Morris leaves the street corner beside the library to Bob Fordyce, who can use it as a place to meet Barbara during noon hours. That will make it a foursome, and maybe they can get together for a rubber of bridge. Who knows ? Nancy Paul bequeaths her giddy giggle to Mar¬ garet Chenoweth, who has enough fun that she can use it to supplement her own. Billie Marquart wills her thoughts and opinions of the coach’s training rules (which we can’t print) to the girls who go with basketball players next year. Common sense and modesty are attributes this year’s juniors will need upon becoming seniors next year. Therefore, Shirley Eby, Marilyn Weinley, Pat Welker, Vivian Schaefer, Betty Hale, Selma Hane- line, and Phyllis Jay are willing to leave their share of the mentioned qualities to the juniors in need of them. Beverly Bronstein leaves the lure her husky voice and red hair bring, to Colleen Diffendorfer, who already has plenty of her own. (It’s unfair for these people to pass their attractions on to some¬ one who doesn’t need them. Don’t they know there are plenty of other people who want them?) Ernie Stults said he would take a load of kids in his car to help us solve some of our problems in writing this will (it really is a job). And so Wanda Stroup, Maxine Endsley, Evelyn Gephart, Opal Sturdivant, Jeannine Vought, Marybelle Fishbaugh, Carl Christman, and Doris Walters leave in the Chevey. While people are riding away, Harold Thomp¬ son, Bill Hendrickson, and Bob Hoke putt-putt away on their motorcycles. Mary Lou Patterson offers the knowing gleam in her optics to her crony, Beverly Richardson. Helen Everding bequeaths her knack of fascin¬ ating the same man during four long, hard yeai ' s of high school to Elaine Seils. We are going to let Jimmie Rusler inherit Nancy Everett’s excess poise and gray matter. Phyllis Smith and James Smith have something in common to leave Crystal, Harry, Howard, Jerry, Joan, and Gloria, referring, of course, to their last name. Fred Ward left quite a while ago to join the navy. Five quiet seniors (unusual isn’t it?), Marvin, Webber, Betty Morris, Jean Meyer, Eugene Draben- stot, and Tom Brewer bequeath that trait to “Squeege” Bryant. Phyllis Knight leaves days in which many un¬ fortunate people will have to go to school again next year. Pauline Joy adds her joy to that of those who are also finished with school. Peg Doherty, Roger Kauffman, and Steve Carlson will will this will and will will all past wills to those who will write future wills, and will hope that those wills will be better than this will will. TTi f YN|VV V v ■� sC m y fj V, 1 innsi J fi •- 1: .W % I 0 J for- -j (L TX ' r TO WASHINGTON These kids made history cheering a speech in the Senate and singing in the Capitol corridors. This gang saw Washington first hand in a fast and furious six day sight-seeing tour. Miss Opal Lush, Miss Ruth Luther, and Mrs. Harriet Roush accompanied the group. On the route to and from our National Capitol, they looked in on Annapolis, Gettysburg, and other places of interest, and while in Wash¬ ington they made side trips to Arl¬ ington Cemetery and the govern¬ mental triangle. AUDITORIUM SESSIONS . During the year the students at H. H. S. had an opportunity to attend several interesting and informative auditorium programs in the regular yearly series. Some of the year’s “extra added attractions’’ were: local Fire Chief Grider and a state fire of¬ ficial who presented a program dur¬ ing fire-prevention week; Katherine Turney Garten during her review of The Bible, (Miss Garten also review¬ ed Carl Sandburg’s “Abraham Lin¬ coln” for the students later in the year); and radio station WOWO ' s “Junior Town Meeting of the Air”, with Billie Marquart and Dick Morg¬ an of H. H. S., co-starred with Edith Shimmel and Ralph McCafferey of Central High, Fort Wayne. EMILY POST, JUNIOR EDITION As a art of their year’s activities, the Sociology classes, under Miss Geraldine Zahn, had a banquet which stressed what they had learned on manners and the social graces. Diary September 4—Wails of agony and despair were heard echoing through H. H. S. today as students signed up for another year of work and drudg¬ ery (?). Yes, school started in a peace-time world—the first time in three years. September 5—We rented books today. Then we re¬ turned to our classes, and were seated in alpha¬ betical order. You know “Z” as in Jones. September 6—Temporary enrollment was taken to¬ day. This year there will be only one meeting a year for the various organizations on school time. Therefore we aren’t getting out of class for any¬ thing. Dull, isn’t it? September 7—School’s out! School’s out! for the week-end, of course. Football game at Marion tonight. Sad case. We were beaten 12 to 6. The guys played a swell game, though, and we are proud of them. September 10—The Senior Class organized today. Charlie Ehinger was elected president. Senior Masque and Gavel had its first open meeting to¬ night at 7:30. It is still very warm, and school was on short schedule again. That half hour in the morning and evening certainly helps. Well, it does!!! September 11—We had a wonderful film today, en¬ titled Prelude to War. It is the first of a series to be shown here about the events leading to the war. The Junior Class got together today so the boys could elect the officers—and they did! Thanks fellows!! Junior Hi-Y held a meeting to¬ night at the Y. September 12—Today we had something different —school. Boy, is it ever nice. (Big Joke). Did you ever stop to think though, how you would pass all your time if it weren’t for H. H. S. Stop¬ ping to look around for the first time, we see several new teachers and students. Wonder how they like it ? ? ? ? September 13—Took permanent enrollment today. Fine thing! Now they can find out if you skip. We had a super-duper pep-session tonight after school at Central. The coach explained very clearly ( ?) several of the fundamental plays the Vikes use, and also several new rules. Now we are experts on football. (Who said that??) The prospective yell leaders yelled and Jody got weighed. Oh my!! September 14—Tonight we played Hartford City, here. It was their first game in eighteen years. No wonder we beat them 32-0. The Junior Candy Sellers sold candy too. How about that new sellers booth? You can give your “thanks” to the class of “45.” September 17—The Sophomores had class election today. They catch on fast, don’t they? The weather is “slightly cool and cloudy.” All right, so it is practically freezing. The school is bound to start the heat sometime this winter. We hope!! September 18—Girls! Hurry and join the Bike Club! Sounds like fun, huh fellows? The call was made today for prospective swimming team mem¬ bers. They are to meet at the Y after school. September 19—School as usual today. The weather is normal, cold, wet, dry, and hot. No heat yet! The Book-of-the-Month Club met today in the auditorium at 11. The teachers are really dishing out the lessons. I guess they are trying to make brains out of us. Hmmmmm, could be! September 20-—The second of the Prelude to War films was shown today. These are really won¬ derful pictures, and I am sure that we are all learning a lot from them. There is a lot of conversation about the ball game tomorrow night. I’ll bet a dollar we win! September 21—O. K.! O. K.! Here’s your dollar. Yep, you guessed it. We lost—but not by very much. We were on the ball all right, but Wabash was ahead 7-6 when the gun went off. Deluxe raw deal!! September 24—The Actuariae Club held its meeting today in the auditorium at 11 o’clock. Miss McClure is the sponsor this year. The Masque and Gavel met tonight at 7:00. Katherine Tur¬ ney Garten reviewed the Bible tonight in the auditorium. It was very good. September 25—This morning we had our first re¬ ligious program. It was very impressive. “Mr. Butt, will you please inform those staring fresh¬ men on the third floor, that no matter how hard they look they won’t find the stairs leading to the fourth floor. If they would get their elevator tickets in room 400 like we told them, they wouldn’t have to use the stairs.” Take it easy seniors, freshies don’t believe everything. September 26—Physical examinations were given today to frosh and new students. “No, boys, it isn’t true that you have to enroll in Home Econ¬ omics if you don’t pass the exam.” The Fresh¬ man Tea was held tonight after school. September 27—First guidance program this morn¬ ing. They certainly got this week all mixed up. Mr. W. H. Carnahan from Purdue gave several interesting math demonstrations. September 28—A beautiful day—and then it rained. The football game with Central, Fort Wayne, was postponed until Monday night. Oh my! that’s too bad, ’cause the “Y” won’t be open afterwards. By the way, the heat at school doesn’t smell nearly as bad as it did, does it? October 1—Our ball game with Central of Fort Wayne was postponed again, this time until October 16. The juniors sold buns and ice cream bars in the halls today. Tasted pretty good, didn’t they? October 2—It is still raining. There were no meet¬ ings today. However, plans are being made for the Modulus Varieties Show which is to be held in November. October 3—This morning we had guidance in our rooms. These Wednesday morning sessions are a great help to all of us. The program for the re¬ mainder of the month was explained. October 4—I think that it is time that we mention tardiness. How many of you have been late to school or class this year? How about it? Do you have writer’s cramps ? ? Hmmmm, could be. Diary You see, this year they have changed the system. Instead of sweating out a half hour in the “de¬ tention room” you write hundreds of sentences. Take a hint from an old vet, too. Miss Sees doesn’t appreciate your doing your sentences in typing class, even though it is quicker. October. 5—Our favorite school day has come around again—Friday. We played Warsaw there tonight. The fields were very wet, and evidently our team couldn’t swim as well as the Warsaw team be¬ cause we were defeated 13-7. Just wait until the fields get dry. October 8 —Fire Prevention program this morning. We got out of third period. Now we all know how to use a fire extinguisher. They come in handy sometimes, don’t they Fisher? Everyone is going crazy over the sixth game of the World Series. October 9 —Fourth period was omitted today for another of the Prelude to War series. This one was “Divide and Conquer.” It was a very inter¬ esting picture showing the schemes of the Ger¬ mans to divide all the European countries, and then conquer them. October 10 —Guidance again this morning. By the way, have you been down to the Viking store yet ? I think that it is only fair that I tell you that it is the place where the kids are getting delicious ice cream bars, in case you don’t know. Go down right away and lock at all the useful things it has to offer. October 11— You now have only ten more days in which to get in your application for a spot in the Modulus Varieties Show. It is also time to sign up for the Modulus Queen. Those who are work¬ ing for this honor now are: Ann Porter, Pat Suit, Peg Doherty, and Doris Miller. Be sure to buy your ticket from one of these girls. October 12 —Today is the end of the first six weeks. That means one down and five to go. We played North Side of Fort Wayne here tonight. By the way, we beat them 7-6. After the game, the Sun¬ shine Society sponsored a dance which was held at the high school. October 15 —Is that really sunshine or is it going to rain again ? We are all going broke from eating those ice cream bars, but the more we eat, the bigger and better the Modulus. We didn’t get out for anything today, just school again. October 16 —There was a very good religious pro¬ gram this morning. The subject was “Light of the World.” We played our long postponed game with Central, Fort Wayne, tonight. It was very exciting, but when the gun went off, the score was still 0-0. Good game fellows! October 17 —Mrs. Hillegas was in charge of the guidance program this morning. It was for this reason that we went to the auditorium to see a show about applying for a. job. It contained a lot of good information in case you are thinking of getting a job. October 18 —No school today ’cause the teachers went visiting. Wheeeeee! October 19—The Vikes traveled to Elwood tonight to beat the Elwood football squad 13-0. T he Actuariae met tonight to make plans for National Book Week. How about letting the students come to your tea this year? After all, they pay the fines that finance it. October 22—The next to the last Prelude to War films was shown this morning. This was an en¬ lightening one about the “Battle of Britain.” The scenes of the London blitz were especially inter¬ esting. October 23—Just cne more day in which to get in your application for a place in the Modulus show. Be sure to get it in now, or your organization will not be pictured in the Modulus. Nothing special today, unless ycu would consider a full day cf school something special. October 24—The attendance contest which will be held next week was explained today. There will be a party for the home room that has perfect attendance and no cases of tardiness for a week. The football team went to Bluffton tonight to walk off with a victory of 13-0. (How about those pen¬ alties, boys ?) October 25, 26—Out for Teachers Convention. October 29—The sale of ice cream bars was sus¬ pended again today because some unidentified creature dropped a bar, and neglected to clean if up. Mr. Day was quite perturbed. So, PLEASE hold on to those bars! October 30—Another one of those impressive re¬ ligious programs this morning. Also, Mr. Walker, a world famous athlete, teacher, government of¬ ficial, etc., gave a very good speech. He pointed out in a very enjoyable manner, the importance of getting an education. October 31—Guidance in the home rooms again to¬ day. Everyone is busy practicing for the Modu¬ lus Varieties. How many tickets have you sold? You had better get busy and help your favorite win. By the way, Mr. Gerdes’ home room is the only one left in the race. Keep it up Bruce, you are doing fine!! (I’m prejudiced). November 1—Today starts the beginning of another month. Now is the time to be getting your Christmas shoplifting done. No meeting or any¬ thing today. What, you mean we have to go home at four o’clock? November 2—Football game tonight at Peru. This is the last of this season . . . and quite a few kids went to cheer for the Sea Rovers. The final score was 19 to 7. November 5—It must be getting winter, because it is getting colder all the time. Everyone is work¬ ing hard, trying to get the Modulus Varieties Show shaped up. It sounds good anyway! Stevie is slowly going crazy seeing that everyone is practicing when they should be. November 6—Still practicing—still not getting out of class for anything! Disgusting isn’t it? Why, I can remember “way back when” when we used to get out for three or four meetings a day. Ah-h, sweet memories. Compliments of Compliments of FULLERTON’S ERIE DRUG STORE Dumbauld Burns 833 E.

Also for the children (?) in high school who peeked in the doors during and between periods. Shame on you! November 8—Tonight is the night. My, opening night night certainly is exciting, isn’t it? Un¬ known talents were displayed to the enthralled audience. Roy “Loose Jointed” Harsh and his harem of beauties are an example of these talents. November 9—The more we see the Modulus Vari¬ eties, the more we like it. Why don’t you come again ? P-s-s-s-st, have you heard about Harsh’s skirt? Don’t say I told you, but November 12—At last! Something happened on Monday—something that can be put in this diary. There was a Sunshine meeting in the auditorium at 11:00. Also this is the last showing of the Modulus Varieties. By the way, I haven’t men¬ tioned who was the 1946 Modulus Queen—it was Ann Porter. We want to thank Ann, and all the other girls that were out for this honor for the super job they did in selling tickets. Thanks, loads! November 13—Today we recuperate. That’s all brother, that’s all! November 14—Book Week Program this morning. We must admit that the Actuariae is doing a won¬ derful job putting Book Week across. November 16—A very nice tea was given for the teachers as a climax of Book Week. An archery meet was held in the gym. For the exact results you had better consult Miss Luther. Tonight the clever, sweet, members of the Booster Club held initiation for the incoming members. Whew, what an aroma. Both the new and old members were asking “Is it worth it?” Confidentially Mr. Robert Carr, Esq., the president of the B. C. got a little ill from the garlic and cheese. November 17—A very lovely Sunshine Convention was held at the high school today. November 19—Do you still smell garlic?? Gee, there should be a law against the sale of that stuff. Nothing going on today. November 20—Everyone is just a little excited about the opening basket ball game tomorrow night. Hope the fellows have all the football out of then- systems by then. November 21—We had a very nice Thanksgiving program today. We got beat in a basketball game tonight by Warren. Oh well, we’ve got plenty of time to win ... it says here. November 22—We are out of school today for Thanksgiving. November 23—Still vacation. We played Warsaw here tonight. The score was 27 to 23, our favor. Whee! November 26—It’s Monday! We are back from va¬ cation! All right, so there isn’t anything to say— I’m trying.

Do you all appreciate those few extra minutes spent in home room that are taken off your regular classes ? November 29—The Modulus Store has a large sup¬ ply of new articles so if you are in need of any¬ thing, go down to the store. If they don’t have it, they will stock up on it the first thing in the morning. Everyone is getting poor and fat from eating so many ice cream bars. November 30—The third basketball game of the season was played at Wabash tonight. The Booster bus took the serenading fans to see this —you name it. Although we lost, the team is look¬ ing a lot better than they did in the other games. Pun!!! December 3—Time marches on! Yes, sir, today we had preliminary enrollment for the second semes¬ ter of this year. It seems like only yesterday that we dragged our bodies to school for the fall term. December 4—-It’s Tuesday, so we are still in school. It is just one of those dull days. December 5—Guidance morning, and we discussed all kinds of manners, introductions, etc. No meet¬ ings or anything. December G—Mr. McEwen, noted humorist, talk ' ' to the student body this afternoon. He was not only interesting, but I am sure that we all learned a lot from his talk. December 7—This afternoon a few of us managed to get out of classes to attend the grade school volley ball tourney. Ah-h-h, to get out of 6th period. Hey, what am I saying? That is my study. Tonight the Vikes traveled to Rochester. I wouldn’t be surprised if those fellows would go to State again this year. December 10-—Hope you are all coming to school early enough in the mornings to see the religious programs. They are really wonderful and inspir¬ ing. I am sure this is the right way to start your days. December 11—Students are enthused about the proposed trip to Washington. Hurry and bring in your down payment, so you will be able to go. Sounds like fun, don’t you agree ? December 12—Wednesday again, but nothing excit¬ ing happened. December 13—We all breathed a sigh of relief be¬ cause this isn’t Friday. Mr. Day is still having trouble with someone dropping an ice cream bar on the fourth step of the stairs going to the third floor at the south end of the building. You had ah better watch out, or we won’t get to buy ice cream any more. December 14—The Northern Indiana girls Volley¬ ball Tourney was held here today.

The Vikes played a thriller- diller of a game tonight at Muncie. By the way, we beat Burris of Muncie 32-30. The guys are sure getting “on the ball.” (Please forgive my English). Compliments of ASBESTOS January 7—Another “blue Monday.” These are the kind of days when we long to get out of classes for some kind of meeting. Do you think we are learning more this year?

We rented books, paid fees, and struggled into too-full classes all day. January 15—Everyone is still busy trying to figure out his schedule. Such a mess. Casting for the senior play is still going on. Now is the chance for all of you who have long awaited an opportun¬ ity to show your stuff to really wow ’em. January 16—Guidance again this morning. Now we are getting lectures about being honest. What do they think we are, a lot of liars ? No offense, please. I just wondered. January 17—Temporary enrollment this morning. Harrison, don’t you have your program made out yet? January 18—The Sea Rovers ran into a little storm tonight and were defeated by South Side of Fort Wayne after a great struggle. We were really proud of the way you guys worked. January 21—We are all beginning to realize that some of our friends are misisng in the halls of H. H. S. since the start of this second half.

January 24—Everything has settled down to normal now for the next eighteen weeks of school. Well, that is, as normal as it ever will be. No meetings today. January 25—There have been entirely too many cases of tardiness in the last few weeks; so, unless it is stopped, we will go back to the deten¬ tion room. The Vikes played Elwood and the referees there tonight. The final score was 43 to 42 in their favor. January 28—The Viking Store just put in a new sup¬ ply of cookies and cup cakes. Pretty soon we won’t have to go home for meals, just go to the Viking Store. (Slight exaggeration). January 29—Masque and Gavel presented another of their lovely religious programs this morning. They are really wonderful. Traveled to Marion tonight to see our game there. We beat them, too. January 30— The committees for the reception were announced, and a meeting of the dance committee was called. Gee, they are planning the reception before we even have the Sweetheart Dance.
