SEASQN OPENER THE SPCDRTING SEASCN GOT ITS SENDOEE AS THE WILDCATS TAMED PERU, 13 to O ' Hard work and faithful training paid dividends to the '48 Kat football squad in a season which was describ- ed by head football mentor Tubby Trobaugh as the best team Kokomo has had since the undefeated season of 1939. The Kats chose as their captain hard-play- ing Monk Murphy, who was later elected all-state guard. Coach Trobaugh, with the aid of assistant coaches Tuffy Laymon and Bud Overton, welded thc '48 Kat squad into a powerful, unrelenting unit of football machinery. ln the opening game of the season Kokomo romped over Peru, 13 to 0, with the team sparked by the spec- tacular running of Benny Kendall and Rut Siler and the slashing defense of the Kat forward wall, which allowed Peru only 59 net yards from scrimmage. fFootball story continued on page 21.3 Tubby and Monk hatched trouble for opponents.

They told of such things as the moni- tors, who served a useful purpose in directing' strangers tand even some of us stupid students that forgot the school exit didu't lead to Dean Jones' officel tothe different parts of the building. Another phase of school life told about in the l-v11.r is our school dances, such as the Autum l'ro:n. which was sponsored by the Girls' League and directed this year by co-chairmen Sharlotte Small and lilizabeth Sullivan. .Xfter liurly and Kutie had read the Lum, they had no questions about the innerworlcings of K.

None of the students tand probably none of the teachersj minded these little interruptions, for they knew that the music was the prelude to some superb performances by our band. Blueh of the credit for the band's success bee longed to Mr. ,loseph Ragains, who wielded a magic baton, but loads of praise went to the band xnenibers thi.-inselves who through hard worli and diligent prac- ret mastered the songs they played and the formations they inade out on the football fields. The band, along with our beautiful high-stepping drum inajorettes. added inuch zest and entertainment to the football gaines, to the wholehcarted approval of the fans. This year made history as far as the band was concerned. as they played for l'resident Tl'l1lTlZ111iS reception and gained outstanding recognition wherever they played throughout the state.

Third TAKING A PICTURE Left to right: Dean Timmons, Mr. Evart Adams, Dave Maudlin, George Thompson CROSS COUNTRY, SENIOR PICTURES, AND CAMERA CLUB With Coach Bud Overton holding the reins, the Kokomo Cross Country team galloped into fourth place in the North Central Conference standings. The thinlies opened the season in fine style by tromping Frankfort, 34 to 21. In their meet with Jeff of Lafayette, the hill and dale boys ended up on the long end of a 35 to 20 tally. Perfect season hopes were stifled by a fast and furious Marion team that trounced the Kats, 40 to 15. Wabash then stepped into the victor's shoes to defeat the Kokomoans, 33 to 22. Frank- fort, on the second try to defeat the Kats, was sent back again with clipped plumage which came from a 40 to 15 defeat. The squad placed fifth in the sectionals. An integral part of the Senior's life i's his high school graduation picture. Again this year Mr. Evart Adams did the honors, and matey, a mighty job did he do. A new club just formed in 1949 was the Camera Club, whose purpose was to create and stimulate further interest in ,photography in K. H. S. They had various activities during the year, and were advised by Mr. Fred Mustard and Mrs. Lena Coombes. The officers were jack Ricketts, president, Lila Hall, vice-president, Mary Ann Hamlin, secretary-treasurer, and Pep Newman, sergeant-at-arms. The Camera Club officers, Paul Newman, Lila Hall, Mary Ann Hamlin, and jack Ricketts, look over the pictures from the National Picture Contest.

H. S. this year after being for a period of years merely a HY club. The Hi-Y clubs were organized in the United States in 1889, but the Hi-Y was not organized in Kokomo until 1921. This first club formed in Kokomo had only nineteen members, and from this small organization of boys it has grown into four different clubs with nearly fifty members in each club. The outstanding purpose of the Hi-Y is Hto create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian character. The most known feature of the Hi-Y's is, of course, the famous Hi'-Y pin, which for some peculiar reason was seen on almost as many girls as boys. Secon- dary to the fine purpose of the Hi-Y were the many social activities the Hi-Y CHRISTIAN IDE L I KH.. rzpensoreml and in which they pztrticipated. Good examples of these social activi- ties were the aftersgame dances, the lllysterv Ramble, Murder on the Hardwood, and the banquets given for the memhers during the year. The Hi-Y's besides havingf these social features had civic projects which were presented to help their school and community. The HiAY's gave baskets to needy families at Christmas and Thanksgiving time, presented clean-up campaigns in the school, worked for the Klarch of llimes, and rang bells for the Salvation Army, The lli 'fs were outstanding' for their ideals, but most of all the Hi-Y's were outs'anding' hecause of the fellows who were members and who were really' on the hall.

FUTURE ALBERT EIN STEIN S PRODUCED BY MATHEMATICS DEPARTMENT Three times seven is, duh, 34?? The foregoing statement would sound the death knell for any student in the mathematics class if it appeared on the final exam in that subject. Kurly and Kutie found out in algebra class that if ZX equals X plus 6, then X equals 6, and they learned in geometry that the shortest distance between two points is a straight line, and they were told all about sines and co- sines in trig. Yes, the Mathematics department is well known to Kurly and Kutie, and so are the teachers, Mr. Robert Barngrover, Mr. Edson Van Dorn, Mr. Kenneth Crook, Mr. Lee Dixon, Mr. Lloyd Keisling, and the head of the department, Mr. Fred Moss. Those teachers taught Kurly and Kutie that math was not only im- portant from the mathematical standpoint alone, but also in our other subjects and in our everyday life. Certainly after taking math, Kurly won't be hauled into a Federal Court because his income taX return had said that six hundred dollars from two thousand dollars left eleven hundred dollars to be taxed. GRAND OPERA AND JAZZ, MUSIC CLASSES LIST ENED TO IT ALL Maybe there won't be any Arturo Toscaninis turned out by the liolqoino High School Music department, but if the gals and guys learned their sharps and flats as they were supposed to, the department will have turned out some stu- dents that will have a true appreciation for music. Under the leadership of Miss Mary A. lfausset and Mr. Joseph Ragains, the music department gave the students of Kokomo High School who were musically minded, classes in instrumentals, vocals, and music appreciation. 'l'hrough the ettorts of the Music department the Hand and Choir functionf ed perfectly again this year. Through these organizations the public got a good idea ot' what the Harry-Nlames-to-be music students of the high school did during their classes besides issue a blast of notes to entertain the students in the nearby classes. Mr. Ragains' Music Appreciation class is about to hear some higher class music . . . Not Twelfth Street Rag.

And I say you're cuckoo because no one in the whole Republican party could have de- feated my man, Truman, returned Kutie, just as hot- ly. Well, nertz to you, I can't argue any longer be- cause I've got to head out to basketball practice, retorted Kurly, realizing he had no chance of winning the argument.

WILDCATS END SEASON IN A BLAZE OF GLORY Kat passes finally clicked to give Tubby's Troopers a 27 to 6 victory over the Griffith Panthers. Strikes thrown from Benny Kendall to Don Button and Glenn Um- barger made up the margin of difference in the scores and sent home the Panthers with clipped tails. The red-hot Ramblers from Mooseheart smashed Ko- komo's second winning streak of the season, steamrollering the Kats, 20 to 7. The Kat's only touchdown came in the second quarter on an eighty-four yard drive, with 57 of those yards being drilled off by Billy Mills. A good team from Mooseheart and a few Kat faux pas accounted for the Mooseheart score. The Wildcats wound up their '48 season with 7 to 7 moral victory over Muncie Central. The game was defen- sive due to the condition of the field, which was ankle-deep in mud, and although the score doesn't show it, the Kats dominated Muncie due to their fine condition and their rugged defense which was spearheaded by Bob Stone-wall Swing. So ended a fine season of football, a la Kat: a season which stands as an example of what a group of fighting boys can accomplish if they train hard and play the game cleanly but with all the intestinal fortitude they can muster. No excuses were made for the '48 Kat football squad . . . they weren't needed. DATE WIN NER LOSER September September September October .... ...... October October ....... ......

Bottom: 'lt is a far better thing he does than he has ever done beforef BUT EIRST AND EOREMOST, I REMEMBER MAMA As the 1949 Kokomo High School Dramatic Club's main project they presented john Van Druten's popular play, I Renzcniber Mama. This presentation would be a difficult production for any group of actors, but it had an etlicient smoothness and it moved along in a manner seldom achieved by amateurs. To add to the difficulty of a three- act production in twenty-six scenes, there was the problem of using a foreign accent for the principal characters, but both were met with skillful ease, and the club's production enjoyed a great success. Set in the early l900's, the story is based upon the life of a Norwegian family that is living in San Francisco. Virginia Rodgers held the lead as Mama, and co-starred were Dean Timmons as Uncle Chris and Sharlotte Small as Katrin, one of the daughters of the family, who tells of the incidents that led her to write her first accepted story. No one will soon forget Mamas visit to the hospital, the bank account, or, mainly, the splendid work of the whole cast in giving Kokomo High School a truly Hbig-league perform- ance. The club was under the inspiring guidance of Mrs. Elsie Seagrave, and officers elected were Dean Timmons, presidentg Bob Pickering, vice presidentg Sharlotte Small, secretaryg and Virginia Rodgers, treasurer.

S. is leading the way for a better America in which we may peaceably live. Interest in social studies has been on the uptrend in the United .States during the last few years, and in this case Kokomo High School is not an exception. The I9-I9 history teachers have not only stressed the famous events that have happened in the past, from which we learn what to do and what not to do in the future, but they also have stressed the daily trends in national and world politi- cal policy, so we high school students of today will be able to accept our world responsibilities of tomorrow. An election year is surely a good time to peek in at a government class to see and hear what is hap- pening. There were many arguments fought on the floor of the classes, some condemning the Republicans, others condemning the Democrats just as vehemently. No matter whose argument was most convincing, the fact is . . . very few of us changed our political op- inions . . . fWeyre just young adults, you knowj Mr. Muncie's government class learned about cabinets-in the Federal government, that is. d Page 35 Page 36 STUDENT COUNCIL SATISFIES STUDENTS' DESIRES The House of Commons of Kokomo High School is the Student Council, and its members are just as eager to undergo legislative reforms. This year the Student Council, under the guid- ing hand of Dean Paul jones, got off to a good start wi'th its annual publication, the Lens. Other projects undertaken by the Student Council were the filling of Red Cross boxes and the display of the Christmas tree in the front hall. They im- proved the congestion in the halls during the noon hours and set about to improve the age-old felonies of the clocks in the classrooms all being set at different times and the pencil sharpeners in the study halls being more scarce than the pro- verbial hen's teeth. This governing body of the school repre- sents the students and therefore symbolizes the true spirit of democracy. To become a member one was elected by the students that were in his roll room. This year the council elected Mark Ormsby, president, George Thompson, vice-pres- identg Patsy Aspy, secretary, and jerry Ander- son, treasurer. THE STUDENT COUNCIL Front row: J. Bagwell, D. Beck, R.

PE KER, MAY I HAVE THE ELOORT, From all over lndiana last fall, future lleweys and 'ilrumans converged upon Lafayette, lndiana, to the Purdue to attend the l'urdue Legislature. The training campus, of .Xmerican youth for the political problems of the future is. certainly, one purpose of the Purdue Legislature. At- the sixth annual Legislature from Kokomo High tending School were eight Seniors: Helenlouise Calhoon, who was given the honor of being chosen as one of the ten outstand- ing speakers from the House of Representatives: Klarl: fl1'7ilfilD , senator: Dean Timmons. l'at Aspy, and loe Yan- 'l l1i'f '!'l1. refxresentatives1 and lion llutton, Marv Helen Fihoclzlev, and llmilv XYise, alternates. The high school students came to this central meeting place to discuss prolmlems confronting the vouth of the Linited States. llrohlems which have already applied, or erolmalulv will apply to all the students of Kokomo High School were discussed. Glancing at the hills passed by the V148 legislature. we see measures concerning civil rights. lahor. conservation, world government, and of special iinf portance to school students and teachers, federal aid to ed' ucation. Certainly, with such meetings as the lfurdue Legis- lature, there will be few people left with the idea that the lfather of the House of Representatives is George Xliash- ington.

'Q 1 h gw THE HOOSIER MADNESS, A LA KAT The '48-'49 edition of the Kokomo Wildcats, who played only one game on the home floor, had a season record of 11 wins and 14 defeats, finished in seventh place in the N. C. C. and earned the right to play in the Sweet Sixteenfl The VVabash Apaches were the Wildcats' first opponent on November 19. The Kats dis- played a well-balanced offense with Jacobs and Caton showing the way. Nevertheless, our VVild- cats were on the short end of a 49-48 score as the gun sounded. Kokomo's traveling VVildcats then journeyed to Howard Hall the following Wednesday to tangle with the ever-tough Frankfort Hot Dogs. The Kats were finally nudged out in an over- time, 33-32, on some last minute sniping by Frankfort's Ricker and Baer. Jacobs and Ken- dall led the scoring with 13 and 11 points res- pectively. Coach Overtoifs crew returned to the Koko- mo Armory Friday night for their only home game of the year. Tipton's Blue Devils were repelled, 46-41. VVhen the battle had ended, the score book showed Kendall with 14 points and Dill Lawson close behind with 13. On December 3, Coach VVoody Weir's Marion Giants were the Kats' second victim. After a rough and ragged affair, which took an overtime to decide the winner, the Wildcats were victor- ious, 4O-3S. Kokomo's big gun was Floyd Grant, who snagged 8 poi'nts. The Jefferson Rronchos from Lafayette proved to be too much the following weekend and the Kats were turned back, 54-46. Lafay- ette's Ernie Hall was the bright star of the game, bagging 20 points. In Marionls Memorial Coliseum on December 14, Kokomois Red and Blue force wasn't enough to stop the Giants and consequently was defeated. 36-35. Kendall, Lawson, and Umbarger were the shining lights in the Kokomo line-up. The next weekend the Kats tangled wit-h the Logan llerries and came home with a bad case of indigestion after a 39-35 defeat. The evening wasn't too disagreeable with everybody, for Vic Conner managed to hold bi'g john Price to a mere 10 points. Sheridan's Nighthawks pinned another one- point setback on Bud's boys in the Elwood goal- ery, 38-37. The Kats lost out in the final minute of play as the Nighthawks found the range. Glenn Umbarger contributed 13 poi'nts to il losing cause. tContinued on page 433 Kokomo's '48-'49 cheerleaders were fleft to rightj Nadine Bender, Bob Pick- ering, and Cynthia Gift.

THE HOMELESS WILDCATS SHRED THE NETS Kokomo's Gymless Wildcats started the New Year off right in Anderson's Wigwam with a rousing 36-35 victory over a well-regarded out- fit from New Castle in the first game of the annual big-four tourney. It was a different story, though, in the championship game as the Kats fell before the Anderson Indians, led by high-scoring Bob Rousey, 47-29. New Castle's Trojans were the next obstacle hurdled by the Kats on January 7. Kokomo led all the way but was forced to extinguish a last- minute rally led by the Trojan's Jerry Ellis and Keith Hodgin. Grant, Lawson, and Conner were the steadying influence for the Kats in a 36-34 victory. Berry Bowl in Logansport was the scene of the next Red and Blue victory the following Fri- day. The Kats subdued the Berries, 42-36, after Bouncing Benny Kendall rang the bell 21 times. The Wildcats were in need of a locksmith the following Wednesday at Frankfort. Coach Overton and his cohorts were unable to find the key to Frankfortis zone defense and were beaten, 50-40, despite the efforts of Grant, Lawson, Ken- dall, Umbarger, Longshore, and Jacobs. The Kats met downfall again in the Elwood gym on january 26. The difficulty this time was in the form of the Elwood Panthers. The Pan- thers won on a desperation shot by substitute joe Conwell in the final 10 seconds of play to ad- minister another one-point loss, 38-37. The Kats then encountered the Richmond Red Devils at Marion two days later. Ralph Baer and Bob Longshore were the class of Kokomo from the openi'ng tip-off to the final gun. NVith a well-balanced offense the Kats made the final score read Kokomo 52, Richmond 40. Mr. Overton and company packed their bags again and traveled to Anderson on February 4 to push the indians right out of their wigwam for three quarters, before bowing out, 50-42. Bill Lawson did an excellent job of bottling up Bob Rousey until too many misdemeanors forced Bill to retire to the bench.

EQUIPS COMMERCIAL STUDENTS WITH BUSINESS KNOW-HOW The better one is informed about the fundamental principles of business, the more able he is to partici- pate effectively in the social and civic life of his com' munity. The knowledge offered in the K. H. S. Commercial course, headed by Mr. Russell llratton, is essential to all who wish to understand our modern economic system. This course actually gives the stu- dents a chance to operate in the business world. Ready . . . begin are familiar words issuing from room ll0, the typing' room. The main objective of the typing class is to create in the students the skill of being able to type with speed and yet as errorlessly as possible. liurly, after about three weeks of typing class, produced a 22 word-per-minute copy, which really was very good. However, he had 23 errors, which gave him an actual speed of minus one word per-minute. Very discouraging, thought Kurly, and Z1 lot of us second that notion. But that is all in the process of learning to type. After the students in the Ii. H. S. Commercial course have finished four years of training, they find that they are well equipped, in all ways, to enter a constantly growing world of business. Eyes on copy, hands on home key position, ready, type, Page 4 5 ADD BEAUTY AND BRAINS AND THE SUM EQUALS THE GALS OE K.H.S. Kokomo High School will never forget the fun-loving, hard-working, and sincere girls of VI949. Every one of the girls of K.H..S. belongs to the Girls' League and has been a member since first entering high school. The League was organized in 1936 by Estella G. Pearce, Dean of Girls and the sponsor of the League. Miss Pearce has been aided by a girls' council in guiding the activities of the League throughout the year. The League spent much time during the year on worthy projects. The girls sold tuberculosis bangles and Christ- mas holly, as had been done in the past. Vxfhen the basket- ball season approached, the girls sold pencils with the basket- ball schedules on them. The purpose of the Girls' League is to direct the girls' activities, set the pattern for girls' at- titudes and their school and community service. On October 2, the girls held the second annual Autumn Prom, with Sharlotte Small, Liz Sullivan, and Marilyn Christie doing the lion's share of the work in heading the Prom. The outstanding event of the year was the Mother- Daughter Reception. Honor Girls were presented and new- ly elected officers were announced. The guest speaker was Miss Gertrude Thuemler, Dean of Girls at Arsenal Tech- nical High School at Indianapolis. Special auditorium programs were held frequently in which ideas of phil- osophies, ethics, and standards were exchanged among the girls. Through the League's activities and projects the girls of K.H..S. were taught how to get along with each other, which, per- haps, is the most important one thing we learn in high school. The -Girls' League Mother-Daughter Re- ception was a buffet supper in the high school cafeteria. f'8ge 4'l Page 48 I THE KOKOMO HIGH SCHOOL CHOIR Front row: fleft to rightl C. Mcffiwiml, S. Small.

'I After hearing this old and ever popular song made new again by the interpretations of this year's Kokomo High School Choir, and listening to its many other fine muical numbers, one has a difficult time finding words to describe such an accomplished group of singers. The Choi'r's ap- pearances swamped it with many plaudits, congratulations, and, better yet, invitations for many other performances. The 1949 Choir was the largest choir the high school had ever organized with a membership of fifty-five members, which made it easy to balance the four sections necessary to produce good harmony. NNith this 1949 Choir, Miss Mary A. Fausset has again proved her very outstanding ability in organizing choral groups. It was Miss I7ausset's guiding hand, along with some able assistance from choir accompanist, Rosemary Adams, that made the I949 Choir a great high school choral group and not just another choir. Speaking of the Christmas song, jin- gle Eellsf' reminds us of the winter months when we heard the tinkling sound of icicles as they fell from the roofs to the ground below. The Seashore Pool was the scene of many evenings of ice-skating, and bob- sled rides became popular with everyone. Rented sleighs provided entertainment for the older students, and even some skiers braved the small hills and sharp winds just for the thrill of feeling those smooth run-- ners cut the thinly crusted snow. Of course, there were endless snow-fights which sym- bolized winter, the time that is loved by all.

WILDCATS EARN RIGHT TG PLAY IN SEMI-FINALS Taking time out from their last game only to sleep, the Kats returned to the hardwood wars the next night, on February 5, in Peru against the host Tigers. The Bengal's comeback power beat the Wildcats, 49-43. Longshore and Connor carried the bulk of the attack, which wasn't enough to get the Kats over the hump. Muncie's mammoth fieldhouse was the next stop of the Basketball Express on February 12. The Bearcats were too much for the VVildcats to handle and when all the shout- ing was over, the Kats had been given one of their worst defeats of the season, 52-36. Grant rattled the nets with his hook shots for 11 points, but it wasn't enough to match the pace set by Munci'e's Connie MacRae and Fred Powell. The Kats closed out the regular season on February 19 at Tech in Indianapolis. The big Green XVave edged past the Kats. 47-46, on a desperation shot by substitute Dick VVills with 5 seconds remaining in the game. Umbar- ger hit 15 points for the Kats and Grant got 12. Kokomo entered the Sectionals on February 26 with new spirit and got revenge on the host Elwood quintet, 48-37. Battling Benny shook the Elwood defense for 21 points. The following afternoon the Wildcats got past the VVestern Panthers, 47-38. Kokomo then ran head-on into the Stonewalls from Jackson Township in the champion- ship game. The VVildcats trailed for 31 minutes before get- ting the lead on a free throw by Grant. That one point, which had beat the Kats 6 previous times, won the ball game, 42-41, and Bud Overton's Kats were the Sectional champ- ions for Kokomo's 28th Sectional win. The Kats entered the Regionals at Marion on March 5 against Marion, Wabash, and Sheridan, a trio of teams who were responsible for three of the Kats' one-point defeats. The Kats slaughtered the Giants, 57-36, as Umbarger got 14 points. Tn the final game against Wabash, revenge wa- sweet for the Wildcats as they turn- ed in a hard fought 55-53 win. Grant's 16 points and Kendall's 14 helped to off-set the 22-point per-- formance of Wabash's Dick Miller. Auburn's Red Devils were the Wildcats' VVaterloo at Muncie in the afternoon game of the Semi- Finals on March 12. The big, hard rebounding, sharpshooting ball club outclassed the Kats by a score of 54-43. Loads of credit goes to the ,48- '49 VVildcats for their fine spirit and co-operation with their coach, Mr. Rud Overton, in turning out a ball club the students of K.H.S. can be proud to have supported.

A HULLABALOO OVER PLENTY The 1949 Hullabaloo was another screaming success again this year, as it had been in years past. The success was due largely to the advisers, Mr. Clarence Fauber, Mrs. Frank Kern, Miss Mary A. Fausset, and Mr. joseph Ra- gains. Production manager Jerry Anderson also oiled the hinges in order to keep things running smoothly and in order. The Hullabaloo got under way as Bob Pickering, Bill Parri'sh, and Dan Martin began their hilarious argu- ments to decide who should be master of ceremonies. This argument continued throughout the production and proved very entertaining to the responsive audiences that packed the auditorium on the two ni'ghts of the show. The Hullabaloo itself was made up of interludes and the three main acts. The interludes were very different, in as much as they in- cluded anything from a Russian concert piani'st to the serious undergoing of an operation by two famous doctors. As the curtains were pulled for the first act, Kurly's and Kutie's eyes rested on an Italian street scene. This scene presented them with songs and dances in true Italian style. Pat Rose sang a lovely solo, and Julia Peck played the accordian, accompanying Jackie Etter and Luwana Crox- ford in their individual dance routines. The second act took them to the East Coast, where they became acquainted with the joys and thrills of Coney Island. Kurly and Kutie saw the beach turned into a place of re- hearsal for a delayed stage show. They enjoyed the various dance teams and listening to the barber shop quartet. Monk Murphy acted as the barker for the si'de show, and he told jokes that kept the audience in the proverbial stitches The third act featured the choi'r in a typical college scene which took place in the social room of the fraternity house, Plata Bita Pie. Various members of the choir sang solos, and Bob Pickering gave his imitation of Ted Lewis. The Choir ended the scene with several group numbers, closing the entire Hullabaloo with Good Night, Sweetheart. Assis- 'f' ting Jerry Anderson were Dave Maudlin and Don Doak, who were house and stage managers, with Jack Overton assisting Don as chairman of the stage crew. Jim Ingles and Bob Grams were responsible for the stage scenery. Dick Francais and Jack Ricketts had charge of the curtains and lights of the stage. Paul Newman, Bob Artman, and Orval Cowgill were responsible for the publicity, programs, and tickets. Bob Adams was appointed chairman of the ushers and doormen. These people and their splendid work, along with the complete cast, made this 1949 Hullabaloo possible. Painting the Props for the 1949 Hullabaloo Kneeling are E. P. Severns and jack Ricketts.

REPORT CARDS EPITOME OF SCHOOL LIFE NVhere's my Latin book FH Have you a list of the review questions for history? I can't find my English notebook. These familiar sayings were often heard flying around the halls at exam time. Whether or not Kurly and liutie carried books home at night during any other time of the year, invariably they carried them home at exam time. Six weeks tests were bad, but exams, they were terrible. NVhen exams were over, Kurly and liutie breathed easily for a week or so and lived a normal life again. Then on a beautiful morning, as they were on their way to school, someone ruined the day by popping up with the bright thought that they were going to receive their report cards . . . those little white cards on which the teachers practice writing the first letters of the alphabet. In roll-room Kurly and Kutie sat in oppressive gloom, awaiting the written thunderbolt. Maybe that grade I made in Physics could have been higher if I had studied more in study hall, complained Kurly. f'Often I read along in study hall, and was working a problem, 'pressure inversly proportional to volume,' . . . and about had the answer. Then, whiz . . . a paper wad smacked me on the noggin. Then I scooted down in my seat to work it all out again, and someone tapped me on the shoulder and said sweetly, 'VVould you pass this over to that boy across the aisle, please F' The teachers sure had to know how to handle the students in order to keep them quiet, for there were some people that went to study hall to study. Pat Overman, Ted Etchason, and jo Cena Benge look pretty happy with those grade cards of Miss Handley's, but jerry Snyder seems slightly puzzled.

Hut still, with all the other girls in K.H.S., Kurly had one and only one valentine, Kutie, of course. And sure enough, Kutie was expecting the heart-shaped package that Kurly brought with him when they were on their way to church.

Kurly and Kutie took the operators of the movie projection machines for granted. VVhen the oper- ators were wanted, they were there, and that was all there was to it. But, and, however, that wasn't all there was to it . . . the boys in the Operators Club gave of their extra time so that the health classes could see pictures on nutrition and the chemistry classes could see sulphur mined. We students of Ii.H.S. owe the Operators Club, which was under the direction of Miss Fay Cover, sponsor, and Jack Rick- etts, prexy, a vote of thanks for a swell job well done. Your Highness, my cloak is yours to step on. Following the example of the most-courteous Sir Walter Raleigh, a club by the same name through their actions hoped to induce their fellow students to be courteous and helpful at all times. The sponsor of the club, Miss Doris Consodine, and the Lord High Chancellor, Bob Sablotne, led thi's organization of Junior and Senior boys, in their various activities, such as the publication of the Raleigh Ringer, a stu- dent directory, and also in the conducting of courtesy campaigns in the school. If Kurly and Kutie wanted to start a club to study the migrating habits of the Silver Throated Cat Bird or a sewing circle to make clothes for the natives in Zululand, they had to get the go-sign from the Or- ganization Board. The Board took painstaking care to see that the constitutions, entrance requirements, meeting dates, and lists of members were in order, before the club was officially declared active. The Board made out the meeting dates so that club meet- ings would not clash, and they were kept busy as sev- eral new clubs were formed during 1949. Mark Ormsby was chairman of the Board this year, and the faculty advisers were Mr. Kennth Crook, Mr. Earl Utterback, and Miss Elizabeth McIntosh. The K. H. S. rules and regulations committee , the Organization Board, consisted of fseated left to rightj M. Christie. M. Ormsby, R. Lang, B. Babb, and fstandirij Mr. K. Crook, Miss E. McIntosh, and Mr. E.

Kurly, being far too modest to show his agreement, was satisfied in saying, Well, you never can tell, it might have been only 19 more points.

This exempli- fies the Boys' Legion of li.H.S. livery boy that enters K. H. S. is automatically a member of the Legion. The lloys' Legion was founded in 1936. by Dean l'aul Jones. and since that time has proved itself helpful and worthwhile in many ways. The lloys' Legion sponsors the annual Hul- labaloo which was a rip-roaring success again this year. The Bo 's' Le ion also s onsors the . 5 S annual Stardust Rall, which is the outstanding social event of the year. One of the highest honors a girl in K.H.S. can receive is to be chosen sweetheart of the Stardust Ball, and this year the honor went to the beautiful Guenevere Hancook. Serving in her court were the other candidates: Margot Maddox, senior: ploy Ludlow and Carol Dimitt, juniors: Susie Templin, soph' omore: and llarbara French, freshnian. The profit from any lloys' Legion activity is used by the Legion for various projects. This year it has helped the Senior class of '48 pay for the flag pole and plaza in front of the school and has also helped finance the new lighting system on the stage. The 194849 lloys' Legion was under the steady hands of Glenn Lll11llIll'g'Ql', president: Yic Connor, vice president: llean Timmons, secre- tary: Mark Ormsby, treasurer: and llob .-Xrnold, sergeantsat-arms. These officers were assisted by a lloard of Directors, consisting of twelve repref sentatives elected from the four classes. This board, with the help of every boy in school, has tried and succeeded in making this one of the outstanding lloys' Legions in Kokomo High School history. OPPOSITE PAGE Top: Margot Maddox.

VOCATIONAL AND HOME-EC COURSES TRAIN XVORKERS AND WIVES llc sure to get those darts in even, lJon't burn yourself, and Watch how the children react to the fol- lowing games, are just a few of the phrases one heard in the lQ.H.5. Homeflic classes. Then the girls who were taking llome-lic went home and told their mothers how to do the cooking and housework just right . . . ha, oops excuse us, maybe they did. Anyway Mrs. Pauline Orem, Miss Chestina XVilliams, and Miss Bernice Doody were surely thanked by the girls for helping them keep up to date on the latest fashions, on the new ways to fix food, and the easier ways to manage home life. The foods classes actually cooked an entire meal, and the home management classes actually went into the kindergartens to see how the youngsters were taught and they even helped teach them . . . QT wonder what the girls learned from the small fry? . . . Never can tell, can we? Hmmmj. Seriously, the girls who took the course will never regret it, because it means that when they settle to a fam- ily life, they'll know how to manage, and not have to worry about how to bake a cake or how to make a bed.

The general objects of the Industrial Arts course. which the boys endeavored to accomplish, were to de- velop a general knowledge of tools, materials, and pro- cesses, to think through and to plan work procedure, and to appreciate good workmanship. Those taking the Vo- cational Training course had many subjects from which they could choose, so all of them could choose the sub' jects which suited them best. The boys were taught safety, good work habits, de- pendability and co-operation in their everyday classes . . . all this is essential to good workmanship.

THE RED AND BLUE, PRODUCT OF HARD WORK AND WORRY Things looked dark at the first ofthe year for the school newspaper, the Red and Blue. During the few preceding semesters the Red and Blue had been existing on a surplus fund stored away in previous years, and the surplus had rapidly dwindled. It was decided that a subscription drive was the thing to assure a paying organ- ization. The drive wasn't exactly a howling success, but by using the remaining funds, raising the prices of ads, and sticking to a close budget, the desired okay was given the staffs. VVe shan't soon forget the Blues, which was the first sign of a school paper inthe halls of K.H.S. Tt was a little linotype paper the staff put out when the future was looking so black. Shortly after that came the real for sure Red and Blue. But because of the demands of a group of students that eouldn't keep rolling enough in the halls of K.H.S. to pick up the latest dirt, and who wanted to pick up more of it from the school newspaper, the Red and Blue, against the wishes of the adviser, Mrs. Mildred Kern, and the staff, was partly turned into a common gossip sheet. The first semester Don Button ruled as editor-in- chief of the paper, and in the second semester Marjorie Coady took over the reins. The various page editors were Marjorie Coady, Bob Arnold, Florence Farrar, and Elizabeth Sullivan, Stanton Cripe and Carol Hawk were assistant edi'tors. Betty Myers and Bob Babb officiated as copy editors and Dorothy Altherr was in charge of the exchange department. Mrs. Mildred Kern was the editorial adviser, who reigned over the general chaos in room 219. On the business side we look to Mr. Clarence Fauber, who replaced Mr. Fred Mustard as business advi'ser. Don Doak was business manager the first semester with Joan Lowell in that role the last half of the year. Other loyal staff heads who traced the ads or made sure that Kurly and Kutie got their papers were Kenneth Isenogle, Mauri Sleeth, Carol Flora, and Bill Brown. In closing the story of the l949 Red and Blue, we mustn't leave the impression that the paper was a failure because of the scandal columns which infiltrated the pages, for it wasn't. The Red and Blue served several fine services very well . . . it gave the students a record of what happened during the year 1949 . . . it served as means by which the community found out what was going on at K.H.S .... but, best of all, it gave the hard working people on the staffs invaluable experience in the art of creative writing.

GYM CLASSES AND G.A.A. PUT STRESS ON ATHLETIC PROWESS Under the guidance of jeniece Pickering, Toni Rea. and Marjorie Spicer as club officers, and Miss Miriam Dan- ner as adviser, the G.A.A. girls had a full year of sports, recreation, and fun. During the first part of May occurred the bi'g social event of the year, the Mother-Daughter party where the annual awards were given, This year the Senior Locket was given to Jeniece Pickering and State award plaques to Tonie Rea, Marjorie Spicer, and Arlene Suzn- mers. A flash of blue, screams of Hurry, run, run! and Ohhh, don't drop the ball, be carefullf' then a triumphant shout of First,', frequently rang up from the girls' gym. Sometimes the gals got so excited during the relays and basketball games that those precious long fingernails were gnawed down to stubs, Gym classes as a first-rate means for the freshies, sophs, and 3B's to get rid of excess energy. Uf you happened to catch sight of a digni'fied senior taking the stairs two at a time, it was just her method of wearing off some energyj While the girls lustily cheered for the Reds or the Blues , the boys struggled with medicine balls and calisthenics. The winning team of a game of medicineball had the fun of playing basketball for the rest of the period while the losers were forced to run the mile -a splurge to extra effort! Those who chose to take swim- ming instead of gym used the YMCA pool to perfect their swan dive, Qwell, learned how to plunge anywayj Qther spots in the curriculum where the body drew the limelight were the health classes and the safety class- es. Here the freshies learned the functions of the arteries, epiglotis, and alimentary canal, and the nec- essity of keeping their throw rugs tacked down. G. A. A.

Hull USIXTEEN IN AUG il' The l9-l9 Senior Class Play was the three-- act comedy, Sixteen in Augustfl and, following in the path of many other Senior Class Plays, it enjoyed a mammoth success. Much of the credit goes, of course, to the director Miss l,i'lith liarlow. 1 lusty Goodrich, played by Noranette Hall. was told she must spend her entire summer va- cation at home for smashing her father-doctor's car. XVhen her father, played by Jim Hall. finds Gusty is paying her friends to do her housework by giving tennis lessons, he is furious, and Gusty's mother, played by Virginia Rodgers. confused in the conflict between daughter and husband, takes refuge in headaches and ice-caps. Un the day the play opens, an invalid girl Carol Dean, played by Marilyn Leffert, is brought to the otiice, and the doctor decides that the coaxing her to use her long-stiffened muscles might be just the thing to keep Gusty busy dur' ing the summer. The doctor invites Carol to spend a few weeks at the Goodrich home, and liusty undertakes her care with a will, aided by her side kick, I6 year old Arthur Peterson, played by .lack Graves. Arthur is full of stories about modern psychology. which prove pretty effective in dealing with Carol, and with the doctor him- self, for that matter. All of f'iusty's crowd help Carol to renew her interest in life, and their center of activity is the Goodrich home-to the doctor's frantic but helpless annoyance. Carol i's by no means a sweetness-and-light invalid but rather a real problem child, and Clusty has her hands full. Carol's selfishness and Gusty's kindly determin- ation to help her finally result in a situation so bad that even Carol is frightened into good behavior, which makes a heart-warming and satis- fying climax. h The superb performance of the V940 Senior Class Play was in conformity with the class as a whole. lt was a splendid job, and it deserves the age-old praise of well done, cast, well done.

ART CLASSES AND PALETTE CL B RAISE RT I.Q. HILE HO OR OCIETY RAISES SCHOLASTIC I.Q. Under the guiding brush of lVliss liernice Rlcliinley, the Art Department of Kokomo High School continued, in 1049, to further the appre- ciation of the fine and modern art. liven under very restricted conditions, room ll3 had that cer- tain artistic atmosphere that so becomes the larger and more pretentious artists' studios. The art classes sponsored an exhibit of ninety-eight pictures at the llarvest fair, early in the year. Other community proiects undertaken by the art classes were ,laycee Halloween l'oster Con-- test, posters for the linipe lilower Show: post- ers for the YXYCA building fund, and posters and backdrops for the llullabaloo. The main event of the year was the exhibit of modern art that each class had produced during the semester. Of these pictures, the best ones were selected to send to the Scholastic Regionals at lllock's Store in indianapolis. A club that worked hand in hand with the Art liepartrnent was the Palette Club, sponsored also by liliss liernice McKinley. The club was open to any high school student interested in art, and had as its main project the replacing of out- dated posters by newer, more attractive ones. The club showed its community minded spirit when it made posters for various worthwhile community projects. Very commendable for :t clnb of this hind was the filling of a basket for a needy family at Christmas time. The lleanx Arts llall was a fancy costume ball held by the club for which each guest designed his own costume. The olhcers of the club were lrene l.oop, president: Loretta Horn, vice president: lletty lllessing, secretary: Dorothy Conwell, treasurer: and Don Sandy, sergeant-at-arms. The lflonor Society members are chosen by the faculty on the basis of scholarship, leader' ship, service and character. To have been in the Society you must have been in the upper one third of your class, scholastically. The purpose of the Society is to create a desire among the students to better themselves. A tea, an audi- torium program, and a banquet formed part of the activities of the Society. The officers elect- ed for the 1949 year were llale Swihart, pres- dent: liob Adams, vice president: lXlary llelen Shockley, secretary, and liill Lawson, treasurer. The members wore gold pins showing the flam- ing torch which symbolizes true scholarship. Page 83 Page 84 ...mtn5!'t:ael3e!a..esn.. Top: There's the last second splurge.

FURY ON THE CINDERPATH Opening the '48 Track season Coach Overton's Ko- komo thinly-clads did a fine job, although they lost to Marion, 56 to 53. Rut Siler was the individual leader, winning three first-place ribbons, while Barney Petty tied for first in his speci'alty, pole vaulting, and ran off with the 200-yd. low hurdles blue ribbon. Tech was next on the schedule, and Kokomo got off to a flying start with Petty, Siler, Marple, Garrison, and Storer showing their talents. The Tech Green flooded the track in the closing minutes, however, and Kokomo was defeated, 75 to 42. April 26 brought along the Muncie Relays, and a K.H.S. team pulled through with flying colors by taking 4th place with 17 points, right behind Muncie Central, who had 18. Petty and Marple were the leaders for Kokomo. The next great event was the annual Kokomo Relays in which the Kats made a very good showing by placing Sth with 18 2f3 points. Carrying the lead for Kokomo, each in his own specialty, were Marple, Buffum, the half- mile relay team, and one of the best mile relay teams in the state composed of Buffum, Button, Garrison, and Siler. Don White helped the cause of K.H.S. with a few hefty tosses of the shot-put. On May the 4th, the much dreaded Anderson Ind- ians rolled into town and took home another scalp with a score of Anderson 69 273 to Kokomo's 47 173, which is a small margin in comparison to the strength of And- erson's very powerful team. Starring in the meet were jack Ellis, Bob Kirkendall, Bill Fox, Leo Herr, Barney Petty, and Dean Davenport. In the Conference Kokomo came in 5th with 24 points. Petty took lst in the pole vault by clearing l2'1 . The mile relay team also took first place with a time of 3 :40.5. On May 17, when the .Sectionals rolled around, the Kats took first place with 51M well earned points. In the State Track Meet, Marple had tough luck when he tripped over the second and third hurdles and fell to de- feat at the peak of his athletic achievements in K.H.S., but Petty kept right on plugging away and brought home the only bacon for Kokomo, which was ZZ points in the pole vault department. The twelve men sent to the State Meet were Petty, Marple, Buffum, Siler, Button, Storer, Woodward, Garrison, Platt, Herr, Boruff, and Mills. There goes the tape. Pago 85 Page 86 ' 4..

BASEBALL NINE SWINGS MIGHTY SI-IILLELAGHS After a dismal preceding season, the Kat baseball team shown in full glory in 1948 and gained second place in the North Central Conference standings and ended the season with a won-lost record of eight and two. One doesn't need to ask Leo Durocher to know that takes some really per- fected baseball playing! Three cheers go to Tuffy Lay- mon, the Kat Coach, who guided the 1948 Kokomo nine. First to march under the yoke of defeat at the hands of the Kats was Frankfort, who was slapped back by the score of ll to 7. Next to fall under the heel of the Kokomo squad was jeff of Lafayette in an easy 9 to 3 victory. The future Ruth and Gerhigs of Kokomo then proceeded to wallop Logansport, 15 to 3. The double header of the season was with Peru, who was vanquished in both games to the tunes of 15 to 3 and 7 to 4. Marion's hopes were terminated when a victorious K.H.S. handed them a 13 to 3 setback. Then New Castle stepped confidently onto the diamond, only to emerge on the low end of a 14 to 4 score. Anderson shattered Kokomo's perfect season hopes, 9 to 3, and the NCC champs from Richmond followed suit in edging the Kats, 2 to 0. The Kats came out on top of the Munci'e Bearcats in a gruelling skirmish, 4 to 2, con-- cluding one of the best seasons, if not the best season, in Kokomo baseball history. It's a solid base knock for Red Powell. Page 87 if P, 3 Kas? ' 'IW 7 NL: . 5, . 4? 1 -- I X ,V S K K Blu X ,A '1 bl , 1 Jer x EM gi , ,. Li iv, .7 I ., .,,- 2 ,, gill.

You've heard about all the other or- ganizations in li.ll.S. Now. i't's the Sargasso crew's turn, lfirst of all there were those two people who kept the wheels turning -the advisers, Txliss lilizabeth Handley and Nlr. tieorge C. llunlnar. Next came the Sargasso board which consisted of Mary Helen Shocliley and llale Swihart. the eo-editors, Richard lfarmer, the business manager, and the pictorial manager, llean 'l'immons. Then, of course, there was our artist, Vie Connor, and ,lim llall, who was as- sistant business manager, and Dave lllaudlin and George Tlioinpson, who proved to he great helps to Dean Timmons. The board lmegan work last spring, establishing a genf eral layout so that work could begin with school. Last fall, the various staffs of each department were named and prof duction was underway. llefore we realized what was happening, there were scores of stories floating in and out of llliss Hancllevls room and pictures from Mr. Adains pouring into Nr. lJunlmar's room. Suddenly, there were deadlines to be met at the printer's and the engraver's. ln spite of several maior crises and a few minor mishaps, we managed to survive. and, wonder of wonders, to put out a hook. XXI- hope that you. the reader, enjoy this Sargasso, and we would like to wish the staff of 1950 good luck and as much pleasure as this year's staff has had.

Page 96 THE PLANN ERS OF THE COURSE As Kurly and Kutie looked back over 1949, they marveled at the way in which the school's inner-mechanism had function- ed so smoothly. liven with so much going on besides the reg- ular functions of the school city, with the building of the gym, everything had seemed to move ahead as well ever. The reason for this, Kurly anil Kutie would find, if they delved into the problem, would largely lie with two men, the superinten- dent and the principal. Yes, in his three years in Kokomo, Mr, O. M. Swihart has kept the school organization a well plan- ned and smoothly functioning system. Kokomo High School's principal, Mr. C. li. Hinshaw, has done a superb job again this year in co-ordinating the policies of the high school with Mr. Swi- hart's overall plan for the school city. However, even with so much work on them, the super- Mr. C. Hinshaw and Mr. O. M. Swihart look to the bright future of Kokomo High School. intendent and the principal were never so busy a pat on the shoulder for a job well done or some that they wouldn't stop to give Kurly or Kutie advice on how they might do a job better. Hacking up Mr. Swi- hart and Mr. Hinshaw was the Kokomo School lloard, which is elected by the city council. The school board upon the recominendaticans of lllr. Swihart, hires teachers, fixes the budget, and forms the link between the taxpayers, who pro- vide the school funds, and the students and teachers, who make use of them. The Kokomo School Board Cleft to rightjj: Mr. Claude Job, president, Mr. O. M. Swihart, supezintendentg Mr. J. Ralph Mason, secretary, and Mr. joseph Noel, treasurer. THE DEANS ACTED AS THE PIRES OF K.H.f. 4 if , c . , -sm iii? ' 3... Youse got troubles, l'se got troubles , and the deans know ahout all of them. liurly and liutie were fortunate to have as their deans such cap- almle and lilqeahle persons as Miss listella Pearce and Mr. bl . l'aul jones. livery year the deans hold conferences with new students so that each newcomer will become better acquainted with the Kokomo High School sysf tem. The deans have the in- terest of each student at heart, and their goal is not only to help liurly and liutie so that thev mav become lretter school citizens, hut to he the friends of each student in li.H.5. as well. Bliss l'earce received her l'h.ll. degree from Ripon College, and hesides acting as llean of Girls, she devotes part of her time to teach- ing a health class and to acting as sponsor of the tlirls' League. Mr. jones received his All. and A.lXl. degrees from llutler Llni- versity and is one of the busiest people in the school. He not only has the tremendous job of Dean ot' lloys, but he is also assistant principal and he sponsors the Student Council and the lloys' Legion. l l Page FACULTY AMSTER, WALTER WILLIAM, B.

After the first week or so the Freshmen got into the swing of things here and soon became well enough ad- justed to engage in various activities. But as every up-to-date Senior knows, there had to be a period of school life for the Freshmen to pass before they could brush off the green and dry off a little behind the ears. Yes . . . the elevator and escalator passes at a dime apiece . . . initi- ation horrors promised . . . those lockers, poor Mr. Dixon . . . Oh, those teachers . . . where's room 113 . . . everything happens to us . . . we sure have a tough grind ahead . . . But soon they will be upperclassmen demand- ing respect from, pardon the expression, Fresh- ies. The first year in high school is mighty im- portant, they think, with those four-year plans to fill out. But, according to the old maxim, all work and . . ., so they had their social fun too, attending dances, ball games, and organization meetings. They had members in the Student Council, the Girls' League Council, and the Boys' Legion Board of Directors, to see that they had something to say about how the school should bc operated. Yes, this was a great year for the Class of '52, even if they were lowly Frehmen, for they will be the Seniors of tomorrow, taking their place in school leadership. OF THE LADDER OF K.H.S.

WE'LL BE SENIORS OR FIGHT The parallel of Seniority may be '49 now. but in fifty-one welll have our say. This was the coneensus of opinion in the Sophomore class in the year 1949. VVhat a change! From Fresh-A ie to Sophomore in one simple lesson. Only one more year and then we'll be upperclassmen. Vfe started our year off by showing we were equallf. qualified with any upperclassmen when it came to sports, dramatics, and other school activities.

Although we've only been in li.H.S. two years, we have rolled up a record that any class could be proud of, and we'll be ready to rake over the reigns of leadership when l95l comes.

THE HEIRS TO THE SENIORITY THRONE Now we ain't, then we is, is the best way for at least the shortestj to explain the status of the Juniors in K.H.S. The Junior of 1949 was easily recognized by sharp looking class jew- elry which he had the privilege of wearing. Be- ing upperclassmen was something to be proud of, and the Juniors made everythi'ng count. In the department of class officers the Class of '50 truly excelled in electing Gene Schory. president g Bob Babb, vice president, Betty Myers, secretary, and George Schrader, treasurer. The Juniors were well represented in the Boys' Legion by Dick Lee, Ralph Baer, Ralph Dimitt, and Ed Trobaugh, Equally well rep- resented in the Girls, League Council by Mary Lou Bence and Betty Blessing were the next year's rods of the school. JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS To represent them in the Student Council, the juniors chose Charles Hardy, Jeannine Shera, Ted Chandler, Betty Myers, Mary Lou Reed, Dick Stamps, Verne VVilli'ams, Bob Babb, Jo Ann Boucher, Florence Farrar, Russell Humbert, and Ruth Lang. The Junior Booth in the high school book store was operated again in 1949 by the juniors to raise money for the Junior-Senior Prom, which was held near the end of the school year and was a Hwhoppin' big success. The advisers for the Junior class were Mr. Ioseph Powell, Mr. Everett Mason, Mr. Earl Wil- son, Mr. H. jones, Mr. Joseph Ragains, Mr. Clarence Fauber, Mr. Raymond Trobaugh, Mrs. Lena Coombes, Mr. P. Jones, Miss Mary Ellen Vergin, and Mrs. Elsie Seagrave. Back row: George Schrader, treasurer, Bob Babb, vice president.
