An area twenty-eight rnjfi at the extreme end of the lake, seemed for Cary, which was destined to be the future steel cerlft of the world. Cary now has an area of forty square miles. The phalanx of stacks against the northern sky seems to beckon visitors to the city where they find a metropolis boasting over 1,500 acres of golf courses, parks, and playgrounds; hotels of metropolitan size and equipment; ten moving picture theaters, and one legitimate stage. But, if one seeks a place to build a permanent home, he expects more advantages. The mills of Cary afford working opportunities for thousands of men; there are over hundre chujrjhes and sixteen public libraries. public schools, organized under an internationally- the late Dr. William A Wirt, Cary now has a -Study-Play school was based on the principle of |um facilities for education, manual work, and linique conditions governing a mill town popu- _ (immigrants, sought to establish a child-world Cary has benefited immeasureably by this great man ' s ideal and his unselfish, incessant effort to make it a reality. Cary is not lacking in beauty. On entering the city by way of the South Shore or New York Central lines, one finds a civic gateway featur¬ ing the classic City Hall and County Court House of twin design, facing a beautiful plaza opposite one of the city ' s great industrial plants. Of great interest also, is the lovely dunelandipark dedicated to Father Marquette and located on the shores of Lake Mic|iigan about five miles east of the city ' s center.

There is something going jon every n fTl|nt. Nature has made the shores of Lake Michigan a great pi Mu nd. j rge bathing pavilion is conveniently situated to accommodate the thousands of swimmers who annually visit our shores. The two miles of clenr and and cool waters lure many vacationists. Near the beach is a larg laglfcn with a recreation pavilion consisting of a restaurant and ballroom overlooking the lagoon i his park offers not only bathing and boating but tmnis, baseball, horseback riding, picnicking, and hiking in the dunes. 1 Her ' the winter sports, skating, skiing, and tobogganing are enjoyed. A special pier has been built into the lagoon from which many casting contest are enjoyed. The famous Indiana Dunes Park, within easy reach of tie effy, covers two thousand acres of duneland on Lake Michigan. Within the city limits a system of well-planned and beautifully kept parks has been laid out for the enjoyment of all citizens. For the golfer Cary has ten golf courses within a few minutes drive of the downtown district.

Its name symbolizes the activities and contributions of the great leader for whom our school is named: the ’ Quill” referring to the fluent pen of General Lew Wallace, author of ’ Ben Hur” and “The Prince of India”, and the “Blade” signifying his outstanding mili¬ tary achievements during the Civil War. This is the fourth issue of The Quill and Blade. Our first volume was dedicated to General Lew Wallace. In the second we at¬ tempted to portray the unique features of the Work-Study-Play school of which we are so proud to be a part; and the third volume dealt with the background of school life and stu¬ dent activities. This, our fourth, centers about our city, Gary, with its many and varied aspects. It is the sincere wish of the entire staff that the readers of this book may find some¬ thing worth remembering within its covers. BOTTOM ROW—Violet Wadas.

Hoke, our principal, has directed the affairs of the Lew Wal¬ lace School Center for the past eleven years during which time the number of pupils has increased from 1,337 to 2,427. In addition to the very strenuous duties attached to the principalship of such a rapidly growing school, Miss Hoke has been signally honored by Governor Clif¬ ford Townsend who appointed her a member of the State Board of Education where she helps to formulate and direct the educational policies of the state of Indiana. Her civic activities center around the Cary League of Women Voters where she holds the office of Treasurer, The Educational Committee of The American Association of University Women, and membership in the Indiana School Wom¬ an’s Club. FLOYD G. ASHER The man of ranking importance in this institution is Floyd Asher, assistant prin¬ cipal, who though second in command keeps the maintenance department in good humor, the machinery well greased, and the place ship-shape and on an even keel. Requisition periods find him a lit¬ tle busier than usual but never too busy to be interrupted by the latest student who requires special privileges or the last culprit who violates a neighbor’s prem¬ ises. During his leisure hours he serves as president of the Gary Principals Club, as vice president of the Northern Indiana High School Conference and as chairman of the vocational guidance committee in the Gary Kiwanis Club Page thirteen THE BOARD OF EDUCATION SEATED—Mr. Doyne, Mrs. Patterson, Dr. Craig.

Page fourteen THE BOARD OF EDUCATION The membership of the administrative board of the School City of Cary, was increased from three to five mem¬ bers by an act of the legislature in 1937. The hold-over members are Mrs. May A Patterson, president, Dr. James A Craig, secretary and Donald W. Milliren, treasurer, who had been elected to the board by the city council prior to 1937. The two new members, appointed by Mayor Lee Clayton, in conformity with the new law, are Edward W. Schaaf and Edward T. Doyne. Mrs. Patterson has long been identified with civic ac¬ tivities in Cary, identifying herself especially with the League of Women Voters and the Cary Carden Club. Dr Craig has a well established reputation as one of the leading surgeons of the city Messers. Doyne and Schaaf are business men of long standing, and Mr. Milliren has charge of registration in the county clerk’s office at Crown Point, Indiana. The photograph of the late Dr. William A Wirt, founder, and up to the time of his demise, the superintendent of the Work, Study, Play schools, is the last for which he sat. The Quill and Blade went to press before the incumbency of acting-superintendent, H. S. Jones. VALL ri; nn.ii smiool u; v wallah; iih.ii smoo The Advisory Council, organized in 1931, is composed of the parents of students in the Lew Wallace School. Twenty-one members are chosen annually, each serving one year; one half the members completing the year’s service in June, and the other half in February. School administrators select for membership only those parents who have intelligence, sound judgment, and a sin¬ cere interest in the work of the school. The purpose of the council is to establish and preserve friendly relations between the community and the school, to promote understanding of school problems among patrons, and to develop a spirit of co-operation for the benefit of the pupils, teachers, and the community. This organization plays an important part in the admin¬ istration of the school and therefore, its work should be of interest to all students, teachers, and the community. Since the council has been organized, approximately seventy-three members have served. —Geneva Haddix THE ADVISORY COUNCIL Page fifteen U I.KW WALLACE HU.

LEW WALLACE HIGH THE SENIOR CLASS £ fid - ■s. « % £ fid When September of 1934 came, hopeful freshmen of the class of 1938 entered The Lew Wallace High School. As soon as they were well started in their school work, a class election was held to determine who was to steer their “ship of state” for the ensuing school year. When the final votes were tallied, Mary McCleery was found to have been elected our class president, Robert Bass the vice-president, and Rose Pavlakovich, secretary- treasurer. These officers, assisted by Mrs. Ensweiler, our class sponsor, planned a Freshman Week, the first to be held at Lew Wallace. During this week the Freshman Frolic and a Freshman Tea were held and the class plays were presented After this eventful week, the class settled down to its work of striving toward the rank of upperclassmen. When school opened the following September, the freshmen had been advanced to the more dignified rank of sophomores. As the semester prog¬ ressed it became the duty of every sophomore student to vote again for the officers of his class. This time, Robert Reister was elected president, Howard Sunderman was made vice-president, and Jean Underwood was sec¬ retary-treasurer. Under the guidan ce of these new officers, numerous events took place, the most outstanding was the rose sale. Here the salesmen of the class made a ffne’ nowirtff. ' Mary Batusic proved her merit by selling more roses thanMany students dis¬ played their talents in other wajr such as fc jHt f ipation in the class plav, “Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm”,Cw h«l( 7 ura. “T%e Marriage of Nannette”. The main social activities were tf% Soph Hops, the first of which was held after school, and the next sej ieste n dance was held at night. The spring changed to summer , J then vacation time. When school opened in the fall, the students, Wkvl lunioro began their third year’s work. After becoming accustomed to tneir prci WpB class elected the follow¬ ing officers: president, lack Haller; vice-president, Howard Sunderman; and secretary-treasurer, Mary � t|sic. gain the salesmen of the class, the most outstanding of which was Esther Murphy, made a fine showing by selling more oranges than any previous junior class. This year our ranks were augmented by Joe Kutch, who aided us in producing the class play, “The Three Graces”. Our actors also contributed to the opera, “The Bo¬ hemian Girl”. In addition to the many club-sponsored dances, there was the dance of the year, the Junior-Senior Prom. After a successful year, summer vacations came and when an all-too- short summer had come to an end, the Seniors took up the “book and slate” for the last term in high school. The previous class officers retired in favor of Anne Marie Koss, who was elected president; Doris Spahr, who was elected vice-president, and Joe Kutch. secretary-treasurer. As the se¬ mester progressed, the class actors did their last acting in the class play “Jane Eyre” and in the high school opera, “The Nightingale”. Enid Gustaf¬ son won national recognition during the year, in a nation-wide dress-design¬ ing contest, in which she was a high ranking contestant. To top all activities of the year came the much anticipated final Prom. June found the class eagerly anticipating graduation, but regretful that the many good times were so soon to be at an end, and that life-long friends were so soon to be separated. —Jack Haller £ Page twenty ■ K V VAU. ri! im.ll SCHOOL LEW WALLACE 1114.11 SC IIOO JOHN P.

The candid camera finds Eli Thomas, exhausted by his intellectual efforts, sound asleep in a class¬ room while Bill McGeachy, our popular cheer lead¬ er, is surrounded by a bevy of admirers. There are some indications that serious work is being done by Victor Apolzan in a civics class while Alice Rose Hartnett is her usual charming self. Novo Maryonovich looks much too self conscious to be working very hard. In fair weather approximately 200 students daily pass in the cafeteria lines before counters where tempting viands are displayed for their selec¬ tion during the 11:15 and 12:15 hours. In¬ clement weather has increased the number to 650 which puts a decided strain on the ingenuity and versatility of Iris Roesinger, who is in charge, and her assistant, Sarah Evans. This busy corner of the library and the glimpse through the study hall into the inner study shows students at work, following up their serious in¬ terests. Pupil programs this year were reorganized to put additional emphasis on academic activities and scholarship as real objectives for our students.

THE BETTER CITIZENSHIP ORGANIZATION The Better Citizenship Organization which de¬ veloped out of the School Republic was organized in 1929. The present officers are James Briggs, president; Robert Black, judge; and Virginia Shep¬ herd, clerk. The two associate judges are Edward Esping and Chester Anderson. The council consists of one representative from each homeroom from the seventh through the twelfth grades. The principal function of this body is to promote a civic interest in Lew Wallace. The departments are: safety and traffic, clerical serv¬ ice, buildings and grounds, publicity and sales, courtesy and character, health and hygiene, extra¬ curricular activities, publications, scholarship, at¬ tendance, social, athletic, home-room, and judicial. This year the organization began its activities with the annual election. The Inaugural followed with Charles Donelly of The Hobart High School as the guest speaker. Student government confer¬ ences held at the Emerson and the Horace Mann Schools were attended by ten student delegates from the Lew Wallace School. The constitution was revised by the judicial committee. Two repre¬ sentatives from each home-room attended a con¬ vention which resulted in the ratification of the new constitution. The officers of the organization drew up an honor code, which they hope will set a better standard for Lew Wallace students. —James Briggs Page fifty-six LEW WALLACE II Hi II SCHOOL LEW WALLACE IIIOII T THE OUTSIDE PATROL The Outside Patrol, an integral part of the Bet¬ ter Citizenship Organization, is made up of fifteen student members who subordinate all of their in¬ terests to the protection of children as they cross 45th Avenue at both Jackson and Madison Streets. In addition the patrol has promoted general traffic and pedestrian safety in the vicinity of the school. The thirteen privates of the patrol are directed by a captain and a lieutenant under the sponsor¬ ship of Mr. Hayes. A high school boy receives a major letter for a year’s satisfactory work while a grade school boy receives a minor letter. Last year’s captain. James Crocus, was selected as the outstanding student patrol officer in North¬ ern Indiana. In recognition of this honor he re¬ ceived an award and a four day trip to Washing¬ ton. D. C. This year Homer Hopson, selected as one of the city’s best patrol boys, was entertained with other outstanding Cary boys at a banquet in Chicago as a guest of the Chicago Motor Club. They were presented with silver medals in recognition of the services they had contributed to the cause of safety. £ —Jewell Chandler First Row—David Evans. Romona Gibbs, Stanley Smith, Gail Grissom.

The program is built to the end that opportunities are offered to every student to engage in the competitive sports in which he has the greatest aptitude and interest. Thus we hope to build in youth the type of all-around person we selected for the opposite page. Outstanding in both football and basketball, a good student, active in auditorium projects and over-all one whose atti¬ tude towards his school is unimpeachable. fVi Page seventy-two PHYSICAL LIHJCATIOX FOOTBALL The most successful season in Lew Wallace football history was climaxed this year, by our winning the Cary “prep championship for the first time. As a unit, the “Hornet” line was big and powerful; the backfield was shifty and fast; and the squad, as a whole, was well balanced with plenty of available reserves. Charles Yoponzo was the mainstay of the back- field. His punting, passing, and running made him a triple threat against all opposition. At quarterback, Mike Tichac was a valued player; William McClure, at halfback performed admir¬ ably and Stanley Czekala and Forrest Anderson were dependable and effective at the fullback posi- , tions. Nich Garapich’s defensive work at cent was so commendable that he received hono JP mention in the all-state selections. Melv n Nd votny, Robert Huse, John Monroe, Robert Hilty, Emery Radman, and Bruno Blash were so uniformly efficient at the guard positions that coach Baer used them interchangeably. The tackle posts were manned by William Kern, Robert Phillips, Victor Cegoy, and Steve Rajkovich. William Kern re¬ reived an honorable mention on the all-Indiana se¬ lections. Roman Modrowski, Victor Apolzan, Cal¬ vin East, and John Yovonovitz alternated at the flanks. Among the reserves who saw plenty of action were Peter Marovich, james Manion, Ber¬ nard Hisick, Delbert Peters, John Spaulding. James Vorwald, and John Hocza. Lew Wallace opened the 1937 season with a 6 to 0 victory over Roosevelt of East Chicago T he following Friday night Hobart was defeated decisively by a score of 26 to 0. On September 24, the team traveled to Crown Point for a tussle with the county-seaters. In a sea of mud, Baer’s men won by 20 points submerging the Hub City team and shutting them out. Special preparations were made for the game with Horace Mann because they had defeated us for three successive years. The “Horsemen” were defeated 29-0 thus giving the “Hornets” their fourth successive victory. The score was largely due to the effective blocking and good tackling of the Hornet linemen. Lew Wallace lost to Hammond, 20 to 0, in the next game. Hammond was chosen as Indiana’s best schoolboy team, so that defeat was not too humiliating. A week later Lew Wallace crushed Hammond Tech, win¬ ding by a score of 31 to 13. t) The following Saturday night at Cleason Field, J| hington of South Bend, a team that finished ■■season undefeated, beat us in a hard, evenly fthed game by 7 points. In our next game a BFoGeless tie was played with Emerson. Whiting ri f ted Lew Wallace for the seventh successive wrier. winning in a last minute rally by the score, UHzho 6 . N in the final game of the season on Armistice Jby, we defeated Froebel 6 to 0. This victory Hlnched the Cary city high school championship Ejr Lew Wallace. Froebel threatened to score Instantly, but their thrusts were repelled by Lew Wallace’s line. The season’s record showed six victories, three defeats, and one scoreless tie. The defeats came from three of the best high school teams in In¬ diana. Senior student manager. Palmer Hill, with his assistants Robert Black, John Slocum, Alex Chabe and Vernon Hoffman worked indefatigably in the interests of the team.

BASKETBALL After a rather unimpressive start against Horace Mann in our gym¬ nasium, which ended with the Horsemen ahead by a score of 36 to 18, Coach Richard Polk’s basketball squad journeyed to Whiting and Knox to win two very hard fought games by scores of 31 to 28 and 38 to 33. A week later the Hammond team which was destined to become a finalist in the state tournament, visited our school to win a very thrilling game by a margin of only six points. It appeared that this game started the Hornet squad on a loosing streak, because the outcome of the next three starts against Washington of East Chicago, Whiting, and Horace Mann all ended with our squad trailing by not more than three points. On the 7th and 8th of Jan¬ uary, the squad played host to Froebel and Roosevelt of East Chicago and bowled them over with the score of 27 to 23 and 37 to 34. To conclude the first half of the season, the team lost a thrilling game to Emerson, the 1938 Cary Sectional Champions by ascore of 35 to 25, the team dropping behind near the end of the game after pacing the Emerson aggregation. A week later a strong Hammond Tecfe Jteam journeyed to Cary to top our team by a 34 to 25 score hopes brightened again the next week-end as Roosevelt of East ( ragtt olce more fell victims to our Hor¬ nets by a score of 33 to 25. Crown yfcJ yt proved a courageous team but lacked enough push and ability to keefTu with the Hornets as they surged on to a 50 to 25 victory. Several flLap later the powerful Emerson team made it two in a row over the Lew Wallace squad by beating us 42 to 29. After a comparatively long period of r £jflEn rom games. Coach Polk’s proteges margined Wakarusa by 1 1 points X§3fn the fighting team at Hammond Tech bested the Hornets on the Hammond floor. Our victory string over Froebel was extended as we beat them the following week by the score of 37 to 34. Several days later the team travelled to Goshen, there to fall victim to the fighting Goshen team by a 42 to 37 score. Valparaiso invaded our premises with the intention of showing our squad how to play the game of basketball, but left with their team holding the short end of a 39 to 37 score. The season’s final game was played at Hobart where our boys were handicapped by a small and inconvenient gymnasium. The game was hard fought with Hobart winning in the closing minutes, 42 to 35. The season’s record compiled by our Hornets was 9 victories and 11 defeats. Lew Wal¬ lace tied for fourth place in the NORTHERN INDIANA HIGH SCHOOL CONFERENCE standing. Following this very difficult schedule which included games with the best teams in the state. Lew Wallace entered the Gary Sectional Tourna¬ ment. After eliminating Jackson Township and Tolleston. the squad lost their third game to Emerson, the sectional winners, by the score of 37 to 29. —Robert Black R £ ft £ Page seventy-seven LEW WALLACE II 14.11 SCHOOL LEW WALLACE IIIOII R u li:w WAii vn: iih.ii smiooi LKW WAiivn: IIKill i £ id L _ 5 ' k £ k £ £ W A.

The following Saturday, April 2, the team journeyed to South Bend to participate in the Cary Invita¬ tional Indoor Track Meet at Notre Dame. On April 23, Lew Wallace played host to Emerson, Tolleston, and Clark of Hammond in a quadrangular meet. A week later, Saturday, April 30, the “cin¬ der pounding” “Hornets” ran in the annual Ko¬ komo Relays at Kokomo. In this meet Arthur Egbert, junior timber topper, won the high and low hurdle races and ran one leg of the winning half mile relay.

The Lew Wallace Girls ' Athletic Association, under the guidance of Isabella Brown, has been organized to provide athletic activitiy for those girls who are interested in promoting girls ' athletics. In the fall of the year, life-saving, speedball, and captainball are the G.A.A. enthusiasts ' perennial interests Later, their attention turns to basketball and volley¬ ball, while spring finds the swimming team in evidence. Individual games such as ping-pong, badminton, and de:k-tennis complete the searon ' s ac¬ tivities. % Their program provides for the winning of activity points: being chosen for a team, following competitive try-outs after school, merits 100 points. The varsity team in each sport is selected from the outstanding members on the class teams and an additional award of 25 points is given to those who are chosen. Series of tests are given at stated intervals and each girl is awarded 100 points when she has succeeded is passing any series satis¬ factorily. The accumulation of 1,000 points entitles a member to wear the C A A. emblem in the form of a pin. and earning 1,500 points gives a girl the privilege of wearing the sweater and letter. Surprise awards are pre¬ sented at the annual banquet to those girls who have earned 2,000 points. During the course of the year, a record is kept, by means of a point system, of the victories of the various class teams: first place, 5 points, second place 3 points, and third place, 2 points. At the end of the year, the records are compiled, and the team having the highest total number of points has its class name and year engraved on a silver, shield-shaped plaque, to stand as a record of achievement in interclass competition. During the Christmas holidays, the G.A.A girls took time out from Iheir sports to sponsor a date-party but, for once, a boy did not help con¬ stitute a date . In their fathers ' hand-me-down suits and workshoes the girls called for their girl-friends and escorted them to the party, where earlier in the evening, a potluck dinner had been held for members only. To climax a prosperous season, the annual G.A.A. St. Valentine ' s Dance, with the co-operation of the Booster Club, established itself as one of the most en¬ tertaining and colorful events of the year. The Grand March at 9:00 was led by Evelyn Smith, versatile and efficient G.A.A. president, and Juanita Ender, the Booster Club chairman, with their respective escorts to the music of “Doc” Clayton’s Orchestra. Each year shows a marked increase in the membership, the number of J awards, and the popularity of the G.A.A. ' s social events. The organization j is self-supporting and keeps its treasury adequate through the sale of candy to the students and faculty. —Norma Sisler Page eighty JUNIOR AND SENIOR G.A.A.

Page eighty-two Cl RLS’ ATHLETICS The Junior class furnished the outstanding girl athletes during the season 1937-38, capturing first honors in speedball, captainball, and basket¬ ball thus garnering enough points to rank first over all other classes in girls’ competitive sports. In the fall, the first girls’ activitiy in the field of sports is speedball. Teams are organized through¬ out the four classes and a regular tournament is scheduled and played. The Junior class carried off the honors for the 1937 contests and the varsity team was selected from the outstanding players on all teams. Late in November, the captainball teams are organized and again the winners are chosen through a series of competitive games and the varsity team made up from the best players on all teams. The Junior class forged to the front early in the season and came out winners in the second major sport of the season. After the Christmas holidays the intramural girls’ basketball games were scheduled and the class teams selected. Once more the Juniors proved their superior prowess and romped away with the honors and a goodly representation on the varsity team. May found the volleyball teams playing off their games with the enthusiasm that grows out of added skill. To make it unanimous, the Juniors again won the tournament and added another victory to their string. The baseball season closes the year’s activities and as the Quill and Blade goes to press the teams have not yet been selected, but a June Saturday will find the girls “hiking” or “biking” out to Mar¬ quette Park where they will, between games of the tournament, dip into Lake Michigan for a swim and into picnic baskets for a “snack”. —Doris Spahr Page eighty-three II LEW WALLACE IIKill SCHOOL LEW WALLACE - LEW WALLACE IIICII SCHOOL LEW WALLACE IIIOII £ S u - w 5 fl id 5 £ id 09 RESERVE OFFICERS’ TRAININC CORPS “The mission of the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps is to awaken in the student an appreciation of the obligations of citizenship, to prepare him to discharge his duties as a citizen and to qualify him as a leader, whether in peace or in war.” It is the opinion of many people that the R.O T.C. was founded to create a large army, but very few R.O.T.C. graduates ever pursue a military ca¬ reer. Besides its military training, the RO T.C. offers training in many other lines. Co-operation, a ne¬ cessity in a well-drilled organization, is learned in every day drill. The cadets learn discipline while under the command of the student officers, who in turn, develop judgment, tact, and leadership while commanding their units. While drilling, the students participate in exercise which strengthens them both physically and mentally. The R.O.T.C. besides accomplishing its main purpose, military training, develops and strengthens the traits which are necessary for a well-developed individual. The R.O.T.C. was established at Lew Wallace in 1933. Since then, it has done much of which it can be proud. It has contributed many high- ranking officers to the Cary regiment; many of the Lew Wallace cadets have been medal winners, and above all, it has for the past two years enabled Lew Wallace to be classified as an honor high school, a nationally recognized merit. The more serious work of the cadets this year was climaxed by the Military Ball, which was held on May 7. On this occasion the cadets and their friends gathered for an enjoyable evening of music and dancing. —Jack Haller w - £ £ Bfl mi Page eighty-four LEW WALLACE llll.ll SCHOOL LEW WALLACE IIIOII T 2 COMPANY C FIRST ROW—Wright Bcasey, Sergeant, First Lieutenant Novo Maryono- vich, First Lieutenant Clifford Brooker, Captain Paul Kish, First Lieuten¬ ant James Loucks, First Sergeant Peter Sgouros SECOND ROW—Corporal Fred Jannasch, Corporal Mike Kepchar, Cadet Don Eddy, Cadet James Crabb, Cadet Wayne Hammond, Cadet Allan Buchreus, Cadet William Urbamak, Cadet Richard Wagner, Victor High, Sergeant THIRD ROW— Corporal Chester Anderson, Cadet Gus Cokusis, Cadet Florenzo D ' AIoisio, Corporal James McKeighan, Cadet Sheridan Underwood, Cadet Peter lames.
