S., look about us We see the many changes which have taken place in the compara- tively short time we have been here. If we look over the history of the school, from the time the school district was formed, we will see that tremendous changes have been made. The school district was organized as a common county district' in 1857. There were about 30 children of school age with- in the limits of the district. T h e first school was taught in the old log court house near the present site of the Metho- dist church. The first actual school building was erected in 1858. It was a one story frame building, 28 by 36 feet. It burned down in January 1861. Another school was built on the same ground as the old one. This was a two story one, and an extension was added in 1873. The basement iof the Bap- tist clhurch was used for the infant depart- men . 3 H. R.

M. 4 The first principal of Ithaca Public Schools was Mr. H. R. Pattengill. In 1884 after serving for seven years in this capa- city he declined a reappointment and later became Superintendent of Public Instruct- ion at Lansing. Pattengill Junior High School in Lansing is named for him. A Ithaca High School Faculty - 1910 the present school. The corner stone was laid in 1883 and the building was completed in 1884. This structure cost 823,527.49 In 1909, the east wing was built and in 1911 the west part was added. The enrollment has grown from 30, in heaiing planfp and bus fransporfdfion for fhe rural sfu- monument was later erected to his memory on the site of the old school near the Vil- lage Hall. During Pattengill's administration the wooden school built in 1861 burned down. Plans were then drawn up for a brick building which is now the center section of 1857, to 481 in 1883, and to 826 now. The first graduating class in 1887 had 6 mem- bers. This group too has grown until this years graduating class will be composed of 79 students. This will be the largest in the history of I. H. S.

H. S. There are now seven inter-schoolastic sports, football, basketball, baseball, track, cross-country, golf, and tennis. dents: so have we progressed. To accomodate these, the facilities have been enlarged. Besides the gymnasf ium, an athletic field was purchased in 1933. This has a baseball diamond, foot- ball field, softball diamond, and practice Baseball - 1910 Beck Row Coach Paul 'Barber F lor-en Hoxie Perth Preuley William Mewilllirams Bud Wiseman Center Row Clifford Gmrloclc Roy Snyder Aubrey Mellinger Carl Chambers Chet Pettit Front Row Robert McKay George Crooks 6 Football - 1899 Left to Riglht: Jay Helms Bert Seav-er, unidentified 2nd Row: Roy Cowdrey Clyde Daniels, Saul Netzorg 3rd Row: James Peet, Robi' Hamilton, Lloyd' Webster Will Beckwith, Kneeling Gaylord N e l 5 o n, Wm Brown, Clarence Hill, Roy Beechler. space. In 1934 a field ho-use was added. During September 1947, lights were erect- ed to permit night football games and on October 10, 1947, the field was re-dedi- cated to Mr, Floyd H. McKibben who was responsible for its purchase and develop- ment. Student Transportation Bus transportation was started in 1940. Ithaca High School bought 5 busses and used 4 o f them every d a. y in bringinginchildren from the country, They now own 6 busses and 5 of them bring in over 250 children every day. The other bus is used if one of the regular ones breaks down. It is used also for athletic, events and for the transporta- tion of different groups. .-ff ' Gymnasium The cornerstone laying of the new 350,000 gymnasium was held in July, 1936. At this time the basement and main floor were practically completed. On Decem- ber 16, 1936, the gym was substantially com- pleted and ready for use. A Heating Pllant A school meeting was held in July, 1946, and voted to blond 325,000 for 3 years for a separ- ate heating plant for the school and gymnas- ium. Work was begun in September, 1946, and completed in January, 1947. f ' Reynold E. Mick Board of Education Adminisfrafion It has been a privilege for your super- intendent to watch the development of the class of 1950. You were among the largest if niot the largest freshmen class on the school rec- ords up to that time. You will set a new record for the number of graduates in a class. The keen intelligence manifest by you and the divergence of interests among you makes it seem probable that this class will make itself felt in the future history iof Ithaca high school Alumni. Lynn T. Miller Plresident Mild,-ed E Taft Donald L. Baker Wilbur G. Hubbard Fred H. Passenger Trustee Secretary Treasurer Trustee 8 Adminisfrafion The stature of a man is determined not alone by his deeds. His acts must be view- ed in the light .of his think-ing. For as a man's philosophy directs his actions, so must he be judged. A generous act promt- ed by selfish motives is not generosity. Nor can a man reach his fullest stature without a realization of his piotentialities, both his strengths and his weaknesses. He must so direct his growth that he will obtain the maximum utilization of his strength and a minimum retardation from his weaknesses. Nor can a man reach the pinnacle of his develop-ment without a sense of his own Worth. It is impossible for a man to think of himself as little and do big things. For as a man thinks, so he is. a Elaine Baker Pat Evitts Jane Whitman Ch Carl H. Anderson Martha Mcconkey Beatrice Glover Jeanne Aldrich , . Leah F rump, A.B.

Mrs. Florence Smith, upon learning of her appointment as Growler ad- visor for this year, investigated the possibilities of a printed paper. After talking it over with the school administration and the pub- lishers. of the Gratiot County Her- ald. it was decided if forty adver- tisers could be obtained, the finan- cial obligation of a printed paper could be met. Jack McCall was appointed to edit the new printed paper. Iva Marliln McConkey ancl Bovee typing up copy. X 1 Jeanette Jack McCall, Iva Smith, John Trask, and 'Bill Bowen looking over the printed paper around the Herald Press. Smith was. appointed as assistant editor. When school started, advertis- ing manager, John Trask, immedi- ately set to work getting the ne- cessary advertisments. With the fine cooperation of the business men these were secured. In putting out the paper, the copy is all written and proofread by the students, with all the work up to the actual printing, done by them. The paper is a four page edition put out every two weeks on Fri- day morning. It contains the past fortnight's news: of and about the school.

Coach Page Sporfs j fo Varsity Football Nineteen s e n i o r s were among the eighty-one pnos- pective gridders reporting to Coach Hyde on September first. Included among these were ten lettermen back from last year's team. After three weeks of practice the starting lineup for the open- ing game consisted of ten seniors and one junior. Fol- lowing is a game by game summary of the season. Ithaca 7 Lansing Everett 13 Scoring on an Ithaca fumble in the end zone with only three minutes left to play, gave Everett a hard fought win over the Yellowjackets in the season opener. Phillip Flegel scored Ithaca's only touchdown on a thirty yard run. Ithaca 7 Breckenridge 0 Art Andrews three yard plunge in the third period gave -Ithaca its margin of victory, while the Yellow- jackets forward wall held the Huskies scoreless. Ithaca 19 St. Louis 0 With th-e Ithaca line holding the Tidemen outside the twenty, and Flegel rambling on 65 and 33 yeard touch- down runs, St. Louis fell for Ithaca's second conference victory. Ithaca 14 Houghton Lake 0 Making it t h 1' e e straight shutouts, the Yellowjackets won over Houghton. Again it was the Ithaca line mak- ing the difference with Fle- gel scoring from the 18 and Andrews from the 7. lthacfa 0 p St. Charles 7 Galardi's b l o c k of Dale Beck's kick gave St. Charles their only score, but it was enough as Ithaca n e v e r threatened. Ithaca 0 Shepherd 13 Although Ithaca outplayed Shepherd the second half, the Yellowjackets could not o f f s e t the Bluejays two touchdown splurge in the first half. The win gave the B 1 u e j a y s the conference Coach Hyde championship. Ithaca 27 Fulton 0 Completely outplaying the Pirates the whole game, the Yellowjackets rolled' to an easy victory. Art Andrews, Frank Ester, and John Trask were the standouts for Ith- aca. Top Row: B. Bowen, M. Wilcox, R. Evitts, J. Keneh, V. Viles, A. Andrews, G. Mlephmm, L. Skinner, D. Beck, Coach Hyde.

In the three big meets they en- tered: Hastings Invitational, Albion Invitational, and the State meet at Ypsilanti. Ith- aca placed third, fourth, and fifth, respectively. Bill Foster took 11th place in the state and Dick Parling 13th. Roster also led the team in the two other meets.

In non-con- ference play, however, against strong com- petition Ithaca won three while losing four. Frank Ester, 6'3 center, was the stal- wart of the team. He played almost full tim-e and consistently came up with needed ploints. He had the highest one game total of the season with 24 points against Breck- enridge. He also had 23 points against St. Louis. Forward John Trask played very good ball early in the season, being high man twice with 17 points. A leg injury handi- capped him somewhat during the later games. Keith Street, sp-eedy guard, was a con- sistent scorer besides playing a very good floor game. He averaged 7.5 points per conference game. A 'ijlf-sr Y, Forward Gail Mepham played an ex- cellent game throughout the season and had a 6.5 average. He was high scorer twice. Guard Gordon Nestle, the other mem- ber of the starting five, played a steady game and was very good on rebounds. Harold Rose, 6'2 center, showed steady improvement and was at his best in the Clare game when he pushed in 16 points. He had a season shooting average of 47V2 722. Bob Brown, recovering from a knee injury came along in mid-season and pro- vided a valuable substitute. His best night was 15 points against Clare. Guard Phillip Flegel played good ball all season and was a steady reserve. Forward Bill Dlowns was a reliable substitute and despite his lack of height turned in a good job. fContinued on page 565 Varsity Reserve lthaca Opp. Ithaca OPP1 43 25 Fulton 21 25 19 44 St. Johns 27 24 44 23 St. Louis 25 1E 49 37 Breckenridge 18 22 51 40 Carson City 27 21 48 20 SL Charles 57 24 46 29.

Coming back strong Ithaca won five straight and then fell to a highly rated Lansing Everett team 44 to 36. Back in Valley C com- petition Itnaca regained its winning ways and went on for seven .straight wins and the conference champion- ship before running into Lakeview where Ithaca went down 59 to 33, to complete the regular season with a 13-3 record. Going into tournament play Ithaca lost out in the first round to Big Rapids 50-39. In the annual Valley C All-Conference Team, Ithaca placed Frank Ester and Keith Street on the first teamg Gail Mepham and John Trask on the second teamg and Gordon Nestle received honorable mention.

Cloach Page ll 1 949 Ithaca placed second in the Conference with a 3-2 record while they had a record of 9 wins and 3 losses for the season. Last year Ithaca had two reliable pitchers, George Whitaker and Melvin Baracy, while Dick Gehrig handled the receiving. The infield was composed of Bob Strouse, third base, Dale Beck, shortstop, Ed Foster, second base, and Dick Barnes, first base. The outfield had Gordon Nestle in left while Bob Brown, Frank Es-ter, Versal Viles and Melvin Baracy alternated in center and right. A feature of the season was George Whitaker's no- hit game against St. Charles. 1950 Coach Page, with nine lettermen returning is look- ing forward to another successful season. Two veterans, Melvin Baracy and Ray Ringle, will give the squad the neccessary pitching strength for a tough fourteen game schedule against the strongest class C and B teams in the area. Other returning lettermen are Versal Viles, Bob Strouse, Bob Brown, Gordon Nestle, Frank Ester, Dale Beck, and John Trask. 58 Track l Standing: D. Eichorn, K. Wang, J. English, B. Preosl-ey, R.

Ithaca sent a squad to all the big meets during the year. In the River Rouge Invitational, the Hastings Relays, and the Central Relays, Ithaca was among the first ten but did nfot have enough strength to finish better than fifth. In the two dual meets that they entered, Ithaca won both of them by considerable mar- gins and continued their long string of victories in dual meets extending back to 1945. The team's balance and reserve strength showed up in the Conference and the Regional meets as they won the Conference outright and tied with Shepherd for the Regional title. Bill Foster's third place in the half mile in the State meet was the only bright spot of that meet for Ithaca as the competition proved too much for the rest of the team. Four records fell last year, Bill Foster ran the half in 2:07, Charles Patterson breoke his own record in the 220 as he ran it in 23 :2, Tom Turnbull also broke his own record with a 24 :3 effort in the low hurdles, the fourth record to fall was the medley relay which Duane Humm, Bill Andrews, Keith Street, and Richard Edgar broke with a time of 2 :43.4. 1950 Ithaca, with nineteen lettermen returning, will present a strong squad for the coming season. The team will have its greatest strength in. the distance events and in the relays, but with good balance for all events. In all the statewide meets this year, Ithaca must compete as class B. Here is the schedule of meets as the annual goes to press.
