Text from Pages 1 - 92 of the 1934 volume:

THE ==i= QUILL AN D blade 1934 EXPONENT OF THE THAT IS SO HIGHLY 1934 SENIOR CLASS □ □ TO THE QUILL AND BLADE WORK-STUDY-PLAY SCHOOL ENDORSED BY THE OF LEW WALLACE H. S. AT CARY. INDIANA o William Wirt and Staff Through whose tireless ef¬ forts an educational plan has been created of which we are proud to be a part. Work - Study - Play is a plan for the threefold develop¬ ment of t he child which makes for the greater happi¬ ness and larger usefulness of the citizens of tomorrow. This facade of our main build¬ ing, which was patterned after Independence Hall, faces the campus of fifteen wooded acres be¬ yond which lies the turf of our athletic field surrounded by a two and one-half mile track. The trees are the native growth and we strive to preserve here the rich flora of the dunelands. Here is the sun-flooded window on the stairway with the great lanterns inside and out where we watched the proces¬ sion of the seasons from the sun - drenched oaks of early autumn, past the delicate trac¬ eries of leafless trees, through the grey-green loveliness of budding elms, to the rich fullness of early summer-- a collection of never-to-be-forgotten vistas. In this medallion our student artist at¬ tempts to symbolize our school. The goddess of wisdom stands in the light of reason with tlje lamp of knowledge at her feet. The conventionalized thistle in the border is taken from the coat of arms of General Lew Wallace , soldier , scholar, statesman , w!x)se name and heraldry we proudly bear. SCHOOL Mr. Combs, Mr. Seyl, Mr. Wirt, Mr . Patterson THE BOARD OF EDUCATION The Board oi Educ ation for the School City of Gary is tireless in its efforts to finance the projects, advance the interests, and safeguard the ideals of our Work-Study- Play schools. By creating this type of school. Dr. William A. Wirt, our superintendent, has pro¬ vided a school adapted to the artificial conditions under which children live in a modern industrial city and has made a lasting contribution to the field of education. Peter W. Seyl, manager of the American Bridge Company, has served the communi¬ ty as president of the Board for the past five years. His keen insight, breadth of experi¬ ence, and sympathetic understanding have made his services valuable to the school city. Mrs. May A. Patterson, the secretary of the Board, is an active member of the community with diversified interests that bring her in close touch with local problems. Besides serving as president of the Gary League for Rehabilitation, which aids the handi¬ capped either by finding work for them after they leave school or providing for their further education, she is associated with: The Dunes Federated Clubs, The Vivian So¬ ciety, The League of Women Voters, and The Gary Civic Theater. Leslie I. Combs, the third trustee on the Board, is completing his fifth year in the capacity of treasurer. Mr. Combs, who is one of Gary’s pioneer business men and con¬ tractors, brings to the Board the experienced technique of the designer and builder which is of inestimable value in solving the problems of the physical upkeep of the school plants. Mr. Combs has spared neither time nor energy in attaining and solving the peculiar financial problems presented by the economic stress of the past five years. Page Elrvrn Verna M.

Yutli Secretary The class of 34 was a loosely knit organization during its freshman year, but unity became apparent soon after the Thanksgiving dance. Many oppor¬ tunities for social contact were offered that first year which prepared them to look forward zealously to the opening of the sophomore year. The class held several general get-togethers as sophomores and class spirit became a reality. In the spring they arranged to meet one another under less formal conditions. A picnic was held at the Crown Point Fair Grounds, where male sponsors turned out tie-less and in shirt-sleeves and the women sponsors in old skirts and sweaters. Since 1933 brought to Lew Wallace a wave of social organizations, juniors joined and began to take part in varied activities. With the Senior Honor So¬ ciety acting as an incentive to excellent scholarship, many juniors attained high scholastic standings and were elected to membership; with the Inkpot Club serving as a stimulus, junior students gained recog¬ nition in the field of creative writing; and with the Sphinx and Vivi-Darians organized along purely so¬ cial lines, other juniors found new social contacts � n these groups. As spring approached, the class of 34, cooperat¬ ing with that of 33, began active preparations for the event of the year, the Junior-Senior Prom”. This all-irrportant affair took place on May 27 in the Masonic Ballroom. Impressed by the successful and happy close of the junior year, the students awaited with enthusiasm the coming September. At the opening of the senior year, the class of 34 plunged into the work of their last year with en¬ thusiasm. Special subjects were now emphasized, and many seniors won honor and recognition in various departments of the school. Both this success and the many social events which culminated in the Senior Prom ’ and commencement exercises marked this last year the fullest and richest period of their high school experience. Regretfully the class of 34 sees the close of its high school days with a multitude of pleasant mem¬ ories, recollections of difficulties overcome, and a knowledge of experience gained from its fruitful years, as the rich legacy that is ours.

Page Forty-four ACTIVITIES BETTER CITIZENSHIP The Better Citizenship Organization through the efforts of its sponsors and Howard Beasey, the president, has become a very important factor in the student life of the Lew Wallace School. The officers of this administration were installed at a formal inaugural held in the new auditorium. The guest speakers were Robert Marks and George Sufana, president and Indiana governor of the National Association of Student Government Officers, of which Lew Wallace is a member. This organization has forty councilmen, each the elected representative from a reg¬ ister class, two councilmen-at-large. and a President, Judge, and Clerk. The council is divided into six standing committees: Better Citizenship, Health and Hygiene, Safety, Publicity, Building and Grounds, and Scholarship and Attendance, each of which has a faculty adviser and co-chairman whose duties are to report the work of their respective committees to the council clerk, Olympia Muntean. The School-Boy Patrol, a branch of the organization which is headed by the stu¬ dent captain, Thomas Doody, has a membership of forty. The monitor system, an out¬ growth of the Patrol, was installed this year. At meetings of the register classes, held each week, the councilmen have this year presented for general dicussion, suh topics of general interest as: school spirit, auditorium ideals, traffic problems, health and hygiene, and the constructive use of liesure time. In addition this organization has sponsored the sending of letters to students absent from school for four days or more, taking care of bulletin boards and publicity ma¬ terial, giving safety talks in the auditorium, advising students through the judicial com¬ mittee, compiling a scrap book of school activities, formulating a semester’s report of tardiness, and taking care of outside and inside traffic. The activities of the present Better Citizenship Organization will be a challenge for years to come. Top Rou •—M. Vrska, F. Vidmich, W. Rice, F. Champion. N. Athens, L. Risberg, F.. Alcich, E.

Psge Fifty-one The auditorium is the center around which all school activities revolve. Here the best efforts of the individual and the choicest bits from the classroom are shared with student audiences to be developed, ap¬ preciated, and evaluated. For eight years the program of each child includes a daily hour in auditorium which is divided between community sing¬ ing, music appreciation, and a multitude of activities listed under speech”. Here children learn the rudiments of parliamentary law by presiding over the activities of the group and reporting the minutes of the meetings. The best in dramatic literature is pre¬ sented; free dramatizations of numberless situations are developed, and interesting classroom w ' ork in academic and special subjects is offered. The idea is always to give enjoyment, develop appreciation, and stimulate the habit of critical observation to the end that only the best will be accept¬ able as entertainment and leisure hours will be spent profitably. When the ninth grade is reached au¬ ditorium becomes an elective subject open to all high school students. The auditorium further serves as the hub of the school” by making it possible for all the registers of a given class to meet once a month during each semester so that class interests and activities may be discussed with the entire group instead of separate registers. This custom serves to unify classes and de¬ velop leadership. Induction ceremonies for the Junior and Senior Honor Societies are held in the auditorium and are attended by all students of junior high school ranking and above. These are occasions for inviting some outstanding speaker from the community to addre s the student body and further cement the inter¬ ests of the school and the community. The inauguration of the officers of the Better Citizenship Organization is held annually in the au¬ ditorium before a capacity audience of parents, patrons, friends, and students whose enthusiasm attests to the value placed by the student body and community on the activities of this organization. Gen¬ eral rallies and pep meetings” are held here after the regular school sessions to promote the interests of seasonal sports and special activities. At night the auditorium becomes the community theatre where weekly programs are offered by the students who here enjoy with their parents and friends the best work of individuals and groups, there¬ by sharing their gifts with a sympathetic and understanding audience and at the same time profiting from the opportunity offered by this audience situation. The community night entertainments usual¬ ly include a motion picture program projected by some member of the Visual Educational Department. The cross section of auditorium activities represented pictorially here reads from the top left to the bottom and across to the extreme right. First is a scene from Russia, dramatized by a history class with suggested properties and costumes in which the students shared interesting facts about Russia w ith the audience. Next comes a scene from Louisa May Alcott ' s Little Women” followed by a glimpse of a comedy. His First Dress Suit”. The special program for C hristmas, The First Noel”, combined music with the drama and here shows the adoration of the magi. A group from a Dutch program oc¬ cupies the corner followed by the contestants in the declamatory and oratorical contests. Another special day program celebrating Thanksgiving shows The Return of the Pilgrims”; below this is shown a class in speech. Two classroom programs, one from the science laboratory demonstrating work on bones, and the other from mechanical drawing, are followed by a program from the commercial department showing student activities in the commercial field. The last group is a voice and diction class that elected to do intensive work for one semester on the interpretation of the printed page and the study of dramatic values and plays.

QUILL AND BLADE STAFF Inspired by the favorable reception of the 1932 annual, the 1934 Quill and Blade staff undertook their task with a greater degree of confidence, hoping to make this publication of lasting value to the members of the senior class and the Lew Wallace School. After weeks of serious consideration, the theme work-study-play was selected for the new edition because it is the nice balance between these three activities that is the foundation of the Garv Public School System. Under the guidance of the faculty advisors, all the departments represented on the staff have en¬ deavored to incorporate the theme into their work so that through this unity they might spin a thread strong enough to bind the book together. In retaining the same cover as the 1932 book, the Quill and Blade staff hopes it has established another tradition. fatty Quinn. Editor-in-chief .. ... Associate Editor ...... Literary Editor .

Page Sixty-four The department of physical education ts represented by Mercury , the messenger of the gods with winged cap and sandals , bearing caduceus aloft , poised between the two great objectives character building and sportsmanship , and flanked on eit jer side by leisure and health. The various games arc represented as rays of light emanating from the aim of sportsmanship. lm M: S EE jfOPTiMANSui, . l cE icAttPsuiD HD ■ PHYSICAL EDUCATION — PHYSICAL EDUCATION The Physical Education program for the Lew Wallace School attempts a dual education of the in¬ dividual. Besides stressing the necessity of developing a strong body and keeping it physically fit, em¬ phasis is placed on character formation. This department offers the opportunity for the students to relax and to enjoy types of exercise essential to health. It trains the students in body control which, in turn, develops both graceful and erect carriage. It stresses the fundamentals of good health, because happiness and success depend largely on the physical efficiency and alertness of the individual. In intramural competitive games qualities of sportsmanship, fair-play, good citizenship, and co¬ operation are brought to the surface. These qualities which the student develops through game exercises will not only remain with him during his student days, but will carry over into later life and profoundly influence his social contacts. The girls department of physical education attempts, not a dual, but a threefold development. The social values received here are also outstanding in importance. Much time and instruction is given to social dancing. Some girls take no great pleasure in dancing, but every girl knows the importance of being able to dance well, and she knows, too, that her character and personality are often judged by her appearance and behavior on the dance floor. Not only dance-steps, but the etiquette and dress which conventions demand of the dancers is discussed in the class room. There is also a swimming class which offers much in the way of opportunity for the moulding of character. A calm, cool, and alert response to a critical situation is often the result of good instruction in the pool. Since it is desirable that everyone should feel at home in the water and should know at least what to do when he finds himself in deep water, particular emphasis is placed on the fundamentals of swimming. This training teaches and develops the control of the body muscles, especially those of the diaphram, which is an asset to speakers and singers as well. An elective course in the department of physical education is the R. O. T. C., which was incorpo¬ rated into the curriculum this year. Although it is fundamentally a military organization, it teaches the boy the responsibilities and priviliges of citizenship and develops qualities of leadership useful in both military and civilian life. An opportunity is here offered for the cultivation of tact, good judgment, discretion, and the ability to lead and command others. Military training through a system of promotion for merit encourages the boy to excel, and teaches him punctuality, precision, and cooperation. Constant inspection and at¬ tention to detail induces the cadet to take pride in his dress and perscnal conduct. Self-reliance, re¬ sponsibility, and capability are by-products of this training. In addition to his drill and study of mil¬ itary requirements, each member accepts a social duty which tends to develop neatness, courtesy, and personality. Whc n the various units of this department are considered, it is obvi ous that the b nefits derived are invaluable to the physical development and character formation of the members of the stuJent body.

Page Sixty-nine PLAY FOR EVERY LEW WALLACE STUDENT VITAL PARI OF THE WORK STUDY PLAY PROGRAM ■ FOOTBALL r J ' HE Lew Wallace 1933 football season proved to be the most successful in the his¬ tory of the school. About sixty men answered the first call for practice early in the fall, and under the direction of Coach Baer worked out almost daily under the hot sun and the brisk autumn winds. The team came through an eight-game schedule with a record of five victories and three defeats. In the opening game at Gleason Field against the Brickies” of Hobart, Wallace en¬ countered little opposition while running up a score of 40-6. The same was true the fol¬ lowing week-end at Crown Point when the Hornets trounced the home team 19-6. But the next game with Roosevelt of East Chicago proved a real fight, and for the first time the gold and black emerged on the little end of the score. On successive week-ends thereafter Froebel and Hammond Tech fell before the vigorous attack of the Hornets, crucial victories both, since the former gave the local squad its first win of the city series and the latter clinched the Little Three championship. In the next game Whiting’s Oilers , one of the strongest teams of the state, proved a bit too powerful, and the result was a white-wash for Lew Wallace, but the team fully atoned for this a week later by their brilliant last-half victory over Horace Mann, 13-7. On November 17, Wallace dropped the city championship to Emerson. But the fellows put up a game fight, and brought an altogether favorable season to a close. Dale Popham Top Row —F. Saiija, W.

The prospects were bright; for with three of last year ' s regulars returning and several promising reserves, the develop¬ ment of a winning squad seemed probable. The Black and Gold was off to a slow start, winning only one of the first three games, but with each succeeding performance, the team showed steady improvement. When the time came for the annual holiday tournament, the Hornets were in the midst of a winning streak but encountered a disappointing defeat of 23-13 at the hands of Horace Mann in the semi-finals. In January Coach Richard Polk partially reorganized the first five, shifting Wilton Pfaff to center, Ed Pfaff and Eddie Ellch to forwards, and placing Nick Grubar and Willie Komenick at guard positions. The new combination came through with four straight victories from Hobart, Michigan City, Emerson, and Roosevelt before losing in a triple overtime game to Horace Mann in the last scheduled contest of the year. On March 1 Lew Wallace opened the Gary Sectional against Clark of Hammond and encountered little difficulty in gaining a 33-20 victory. In the second game with Whiting, however, the Oilers proved too strong and Wallace succumbed, 22-13. The season closed with a total record of eleven victories and eight defeats. Several members of the squad will be graduated in June, but a great many will return, and we shall look forward to a longer and more successful basket ball season in 1934-35.

GIRLS ' ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION T HE Lew Wallace Girl’s Athletic Association, under the supervision of Miss Isabelle Brown of the physical education department, has had an extremely active year. Not only has there been a marked increase in social activities, but swimming has been added to the sport curriculum. At the beginning of the first semester the sale of taffy apples proved a very successful method of raising funds for a depleted treasury. This effort was followed by a joint matinee dance and candy sale. At Christmas time a successful dance, with all of the holiday spirit and fun, was sponsored. The next event on the social calendar was a Valentine dance, at which a host of young people danced in the gym¬ nasium, which was decorated with numerous red hearts. Approaching spring and w ' arm days brought a longing for the out-of-doors; so donning tramping togs, the club hiked to Marquette Park by the old river trail. On May 27 th, the fourth annual banquet was held in the cafeteria, and guest speakers added zest to the banquet dinner. At this time awards were presented to girls meriting them, through the accu¬ mulation of points. Five hundred points entitles one to a Girls Athletic Association pin; one thousand, an emble m, and to each girl earning two thousand points is given the privilege of wearing a sweater. These points arc earned in the following manner: One hundred points are given to each girl chosen for a team. Twen¬ ty-five additional points arc given to girls selected for varsity teams. Fifty points arc given to each girl who hikes forty miles. Girls who are chosen for varsity teams on the basis of outstanding ability and excellent sportmanship cherish this honor. The Girls ' Athletic Association is organized primarily to promote sportsmanship and enthusiasm among girls mho arc interested in athletics as an extra-curricular activity.

God, touch the class of ’34 With graciousness and peace. And thrill their souls forevermore With freedom’s sweet release— Release that lifts above the clod. Yet shield us with the hand of God.
