This Board of Educaton serves, with its appointee, the superintendent of city schools, to prepare the bud- get for the school city, levy a school tax, determine the school policy, and maintain a congenial and business- like relationship between school and community. PAGE EIGHT MR. REED GRONINGER Mr. Reed Groninger, a native of Cass County, became superintend- ent of Logansport schools in 1938. During his two years as superin- tendent, he has had to devote a great deal of time to an extensive school building program, which has now been completed. Although the building program has r e q u i 1' e d much of his time, he has not been too busy to keep in mind the ed- ucational policy of the schools. Ile states the goal he has tried to at- tain in the following words: 1 have endeavored to keep two principles abidingly in mind: first, the welfare and growth of the children in the schools in all the ways that will make them intelli- gent and worthy citizens, and, sec- ond, the good will of the people toward their educational system, in so far as that good will may be attained without sacriiice of hon- or or justice. DERNS As the Dean of Girls, Miss Baade has been a willing help- er to all. She always has a cheery smile and pleasant wo1'd for everyone. In addi- tion to her work as Dean of Girls, she is our lib1'arian. Mr. Norris, Dean of Boys, came to us this year from Gal- veston. He soon adjusted him- self to his new surroundings and was immediately admired by all. He, too, has another job: he teaches five classes on the side. MR. COX Any student who has had occasion to go to Mr. Cox for help or advice has found in his readiness to listen and in his unbiased consideration an indication of his sincere interest in the welfare of the students. His willingness to hear the student's side of a question before he makes a decision has gained him a rep- utation for fair dealing and has won the admiration and respect of the stu- dent body. The revised and enlarged guidance program, supplemented by a placement service, which has been one of Mr. Cox's first concerns this year, is a fur- ther indication of his interest in and his desire to serve the best interest of the students. Mr. Cox starts the school year with a slogan which sets forth an ideal that he wants to keep before the student body. This year his slogan, We learn what we live has kept before us not only the fact that we learn largely through our own activity, but also that true learning consists not so much of facts stored in the mind as of habits and ideals embodied in character.

S. are fortunate in having many talented and understanding faculty members, all of whom are willing and eager to help with some difficult problem and to give the students a fundamental, basic training which they will use in later life. The ideal which all faculty members strive for is to be consid- ered a friend or good fellow. When they have the faith and trust of the student body, when problems are brought to them to be solved, and when the students admire and respect them, they have achieved their goal. Since all faqulty members are considerate and willing to help, an atmosphere of good will and friendly understand- ing exists between them and the students. The teachers are constantly striving to implant in each student an appreciation for the finer things of life and to fortify them with weapons to face the responsibilities of the world. The faculty feel that if a student is a good citizen of the high school, he will probably be a good citizen of the United States. Therefore, because the students of today are the leaders of tomor- row, the faculty try to make good citizens of the students of Lo- gansport High School- SOF'HOlVlORES -ff we OFFICERS President Raymond Justice Vice-President-Doris Beroih Secrctary Virginia Nelson TreasureriBetty Mayberry On September 5, three hundred and twenty soph- omores met together for the first time in the Lo- gansport High School auditorium as a part of the school body of which they were the newest members, and then as a group where they were informed of the ways of the world they were entering by Mr. Cox, and later by a member of the student council. 102 of these sophs were 10A's and 218 were 10B's. Of the 10B's, 101 oanie from Lincoln Junior High. 89 from Riley, and 28 from schools of other cities. These slightly bewildered students began that day a pro- cess of adjusting themselves to z, new scheme of things. The improved system of guidance groups, their teachers, and fellow students have aided in their becoming good students and citizens of L.H.S. 1.2 g- i i ' PAGE THIRTEEN SCPHOMORES Much interest and enthusiasm were displayed by the sophomores in the class elections. Unlike the ballots for most of the previous sophomore classes, which had only one or two names listed for each of- fice, their ballots consisted of not less than four candidates for every office. Thus they have not been long in developing class spirit.

The sophomores have also begun to make their presence felt in the high school by their participation in athletics and in school organizations such as G. A. A., Debate Squad, Hi-Tri, and other school clubs. Approxi- mately forty sophomore boys went out for basketball this year. Of this number, thirteen now compose the B team. Three sophomore boys, Dick Brandt, Bob Grandstaff, and Floyd Crispen received letters for their work on our football team, and three others were on the reseive squad. The sophomore girls have also been doing their share of winning recognition for the class. Mr. Justice has eight girls on his debate squad, there are twenty-five girls in G. A. A-, and a large number of sophomore girls were initiated into Hi-Tri this fall. If the sophomores continue to show as much cooperation and ability as they have displayed thus far, the school will be more than proud of them. PAGE FIFTEEN PAGE SIXTEEN THE l0 B,s The seventy 10 Hs who entered L. H. S. on January 18 were probably as confused in their new surroundings as were the pupils of former 10 B classes. However, the period of orientation was possibly not so long for them as for classes of previous years due to the new system of guidance groups which was begun last fall. Through the meetings held each week and through individual interviews with their sponsors, the problems of adjustment to a new environment are loe- ing solved. The sponsors for this group, Mr. Norris, Miss Hartz, and Miss Jones, direct its members in choosing their course and subjects and advise them in making decisions. Although these pupils are dis- tributed in four different courses, 21 in the college preparatory course, 20 in the industrial arts, 20 in the commercial department, and 9 in home economics, they were not placed in groups according to the course in whic.h they enrolled as has been the practice hereto- fore. Instead each guidance group contains pupils from the various departments in order that each boy and girl may be aware of the problems facing his classmates whose goal in life is different from his. The students entering next fall will be added to these students to form the class of 43. With the advantages they are receiving at the beginning of their high school life, we predict a successful school career for them. LINCOLN JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL This year for the first time the students of Lincoln Junior High are in a building of their own-a splendid new wing of the high school building. The nineteen rooms in this new wing afford space for the band room, soundproof practice rooms, and offices for Mr. Marocco and Miss Sines in addition to the class rooms. New equipment and additional space have enabled the junior high school to develop sev- eral new features during the year. A student council and a monitor system have been planned, and bicycle racks have been purchased. The old gym is open to all the junior high pupils who stay for lunch. Mr. Shaver is in charge of this recreation hour and conducts such games as ping pong, shuffle board, Chinese checkers, and basketball. Four days a week the noon hour students use the gym, and the fifth day they have the privilege of seeing a moving picture in the audi- torium- The moving picture macjhine, which is a sound projector, is used for visual education in such subjects as science, geography, his- tory, and English. The assembly in the new building is equipped to seat one hundred fifty students- With its lino- leum covered floor, white walls, and exceptionally good lighting, the room makes an attrative study hall where s t u d e n t s should find it easy to concentrate 0 n t h e i r work. ' Mr. Fisher, always on the alert to improve the educational facilities of Linoln Junior High, is delighted with the oppor- tunities afforded by an up-to-date building. His commodious office con- tains such features as a vault and a panel for the installation of a loud speaking system. J I PAGE SEVENTEEN PAGE EIGHTEEN RILEY JUNIOR HIGH SCHOGL Mr. Brown, principal o f Riley Junior High School, ser- ves also as princ,ipal of Frank-- lin Grade School. As part time office assistants he has Miss Brown, secretary, and Miss Geppinger, Mr. Flory, a n d Miss Landis, teachers of Riley Junior High School. In the assembly at Riley space has been provided for a small but adequate library with Miss Dailey, an English instructor, in charge. Shown in the picture with her are the student head librarian, Shir- ley Schmidt, and the assist- ants, Lucretia Williams and Dorothy Bulander. Approxi- mately fifteen other students assist in the library daily. Tables have been provided for special reference work. Riley has a very effective method of introducing students to the school and guiding them through their three years there. The boys and girls are assigned to heterogeneous home room groups which meet every Monday, Tuesday, and Friday from 8:15 to 8:45. At this period on Wednesday there is an auditorium program, and on Thurs- day the pupils go to club meetings. Mondays and Tuesdays, which are spent as a study period by the students, provide the teacher in charge with an opportunity to confer with each pupil individually. The home room group elects officers and Qonducts a business meeting and program every Friday. The objectives of the honie room are to furnish an opportunity for the individual to practice good citizenships to develop initiative and leadership, to bring teacher and pupil into closer relationship, thereby making possible more effective ,guidancegr to develop the student's personal qualitiesg to motivate scholarship in curricular work, and to assist in the administrative routine of the school. ORGANIZATIONS Logansport High School has many activities aside from the curriculum in the form of qlubs and societies. These organizations, sponsored by the school and supervised by designated members of the faculty, are conducted by the students themselves through their elect- ed officers. Meetings are held in accord- ance with a definite schedule. These or- ganizations provide the student body with a voluntary, entertaining, and ed- ucational pastime. A purpose is the one definite qualifi- cation which each club must have. Us- ually a club has not only an educational purpose but also a social aim. Before any club is organized, a written plan must be presented to the principal and stu- dent council, giving the purpose, the possible membership, and the sponsor. Several of the clubs are branches of national organizations. In these, scholas- tic qualifications required by the nation- al societies control the number and type of members. Membership in most of the clubs, however, is determined by the in- terest of the student. While no one is required to belong to a club, the variety and attraction of their offerings make them hard to resist. si I 51 3 -Q l 1 F E-. I 1. i. L. i E I PAGE NINETEEN TRTTLER STAFF To present a Tattler to the Logans- port Senior High School that would be representative of the senior class and Worthy of the school has been the pri- mary purpose of the staff. At the sug- gestion of Mr. Cox, our principal, the c,lass of '40 began the campaign for Tattler subscriptions at the close of the junior year. Members of the class co- operated well, and the quota of 400 sub- scriptions was reached in record time this fall, The staff was then elected by the class, and each member was as- signed his particular duty by the faculty committee. The co-operation of the stu- dent body, the guidance of our faculty advisors, the excellent weather condi- tions for photography, and the unity of the staff itself, have all contributed to the success of this year book.

They dreamed of in- terviewing' adventurers, ope1'a sing'- ers, senators-perhaps even the Pres- ident. As they mastered the five W's and learned the art of the profession, they discovered that the true task of a staff member is to gather the news quickly and w1'ite it in a short, con- cise ncwspaper style. They leal ned, too, the time and labor required to meet a deadline and the thrill of mak- ing' a scoop. Included in their success story for the year are the beauty of the Christ- mas MAGPIE, the ori,Q'inality of the TATTLER scoop, and the novel front page make-up with which they ex- perimented. This year marks the twentieth an- niversary of the MAGPIE. In honor of this event the staff published an anniversary issue which carried a re- production of the first MAGPIE. lt also contained statements made by Miss Bevan, the first MAGPIE advis- cr, Mr. Mitchell, principal of L. ll. S. when the first number was published, and Dr. Patrick Parisi, editor-in-chief of the MAGPIE in 1927. Since the MAGPIE j o i n e d the QUILL AND SCROLL on February 28, 1933, it has won international sec- ond place award. Holding' such a posi- tion in the QUILL AND SCROLL, an international honor society for high school journalists, is a great honor. The staff this year has worked hard to maintain this position. PAGE TWENTY ONE OFFICERS PRESIDENT Robert Buntain VICE-PRESIDENTS Dick Elliot, Jack Steinwedel SECRETARY-TREASURER Russell Vance STUDENT COUNCIL The purpose of the student coun- cil as stated in its new constitution is threefold: to assist in directing student activities, to establish and maintain a firmer spirit of cooper- ation within the school and its ac- tivitiesg and to increase student participation in school government. The student council was reor- ganized this year to make it more truly representative of the student body. Formerly it was composed of three members each from the .so- phomore, junior, and senior classes and nine members from the Lin- coln Junior High School. Now the junior high has a council of its own, and the council of the senior high is composed of one member from each guidance group, elected by the group. These representatives re- port regularly to the group which they represent any action taken by the student council and in turn carry suggestions to the council from the group. The principal ace tivities of the council this- year PAGE TWENTY-TWO have been the maintaining of a monitor system, a lost and found bureau, and supervision of student dances. There are four faculty members of the council: Mr. Hall and Miss Plotner, who were elected by the students, and the deans, Mr. Nor- ris and Miss Baade, who were ap- pointed by the principal. The student members of the council are Donald Settles, Jack Steinwedel, Richard Elliot, Julian Burns, Robert Buntain, Glenn Ry- nearson, Paul Smith, James Bett- cher, Eileen Van Meter, Frances Capen, Joan Wirth, Betty Morden- ti, Margaret McTaggart, Wade Pettit, Russell Vance, Vivian Beck, Barbara Grady, Mary Drompp, Jean Kitchell, Jeanne Fountaine, Wilma Walters, Vivian Conrad, Mary Avery, Beverly Dean, Mary Bean, Alma Long, Delores Finton, Don Laird, George Babcock, Law- rence Firmani, Junior Wood, and Harlan Carew. Sociai Probiems The History and Social Problems Club is sponsored by Mr. Ferguson. Club officers are elected each semes- ter. The primary purpose of this club is the study and analysis of problems concerning the social, economic and political conditions of the world. Students participate in carrying on the activities of this club by voicing their opinions in round table discus- sions and giving speeches. Some of the important topics discussed this year were Greek myths, the neutral- ity question, and problems of warring nations. Librarxj Students of L 0 ga n s p o r t High School now have access to a new and larger library. Room 106 provides ad- ditional space for tables and book shelves and affords more convenient working quarters for our newly-ap- pointed school librarian, Miss Baade, and her twenty-four helpers, who are doing much to make the library both attractive and beneficial to students. A number of new books, fiction, non-ficltion, and reference books, pur- chased during the year have increas- ed the usefulness of the library.

I H E TWENTY-FOUR In his fourth year at Logansport, Coach Jim Puett led the Red Devils to their finest season in the last nine years, win- ning four of their eight games. Logansport, in al- most every game, by grit and gameness outplayed their heavier opponents. Victor Buddy Moore, the spark plug of the team, because of his su- perb broken-Held running was chosen All State. Joe Butch Savini played 301516 very fine defensive a . FOOTBALL Pe1'u 14-Logansport 6. With only three major award men returning, Moore, Savini, and McGrath, the green Logansport team in their initial game of the season battled a heavier Peru to a standstill for three quarters. In the fourth quarter, however, the Tigers plunged over the winning touchdown. Highlights of the game were Moore's 60 yard touchdown sprint and Joe Sa- vini's outstanding defensive play. Logansport 21-Jeff 0. The Red Devils finally overcame Jeff's eight-year jinx in great style. The incensed Logansport team, smarting from their earlier defeat, performed like a champ- ionship team in running over three touchdowns almost at will. The performance of the entire line was nothing short of sensa- tional, for Jeff's total yards gained from play were only 56. Not once were the Bronchos within our 35 yard line. Rensselaer 25-Logansport 18. A larger, heavier, more ex- perienced Rensselaer squad invaded the Berry Patch and beat the Red Devils by one touchdown, but only after a terrific battle. It was by far the most thrilling and free scoring game witnessed in a long time. Logansport scored in the first five minutes of play, again in the first of the third, and again in the last period, that touchdown being the result of a brilliant 60 yard run back of a kickoff by Buddy Moore. The game was a nip and tuck af- fair until the heavier Rensselaer squad finally wore the Red Dev- ils down. Logansport 7-Frankfort 6. The Red Devils, playing their best ball of the season, eked out a 7-6 victory in an extremely hard fought game with the Frankfort Night Hawks. The entire Logansport line outplayed their heavier opponents, thus aiding Buddy Moore to romp to a 58 yard touchdown. Logansport 26-Deaf School 7- It is heartening to see a group of handicapped lads participate in football. Though on the short end of the score, the Deaf School kept our Red Devils hust- ling every minute of the game. Logansport's superior speed out- stripped the Silent Hoosiers. The work of Logansport reserves in this contest was noteworthy. 1-iwfw . A ,333 PAGE TWENTY-FIVE PAGE TW ENTY-SIX FOOTBALL Logansport 14-Peru 6. Having been beaten in the first game of the season with the Tigers, Logansport came back with a bang by twisting a knot in the Tiger's tail. Time and time again Logansport was forced back to their goal line only to make a supreme stand and halt the onward drive of the Tigers. High- lights of the game were Buddy Moore's two sensational runs and the fine down the field blocking of the entire team. Kokomo 52-Logansport 0. Logansport, hampered by the loss of Joe Savini, who was injured in the Peru game, faced a team outweighing them by twenty pounds to the man. With Kokomo's wealth of experienced players, the Kats clawed the Red Devils to pieces. Besides tarnishing a previously fine record, the game proved very costly to Logansport in injuries: Buddy Moore tore the tendons in his ankle and Kenny McKeever suf- fered a broken wrist, both boys being lost for the remainder of the season. Marion 25-Logansport 0. In the last game of the season, the crippled Logansport squad was unable to stem the Marion tide. Due to the cold weather and the apparent lack of enthus- iasm on the part of both teams and fans, the game was a listless, uninteresting affair. The varsity lineup for the season was as follows: Left end, Lawrence Firminig left tackle, Art McGrath, left guard, Maurice Naftzgerg center, Dick Turner, rightguard, Joe Savini: right tackle, Warren Paluchniakg right end, J upe Shaver, quarter back, Kenny McKeeverg fullback, Henry Szewczykg half back, Louis Dailey, half back, Buddy Moore. every task efficiently. teams, win or lose.

Gordon Singer Marion Lou Alber, and Betty Mayberry when things looked a bit black were always backing up our high school ATHLETIC BOARD The Logansport High School Athletic Association consists of Mr. B. F. Cox, principal, president of the North Central Conference, which is per- haps the peak of Indiana competition, Mr. Harold Mertz, who has been in- strumental in achieving financial success for Logansport athleticsg and Coach Clifford Wells, a member of the powerful National Ethics Board and author of many basketball articles. The duty of the board is to decide upon the athletic policy of the school pertaining to purqhasing athletic equipment, regulating the athletic bud- get, arranging the athletic schedule, and conducting such tournaments as may be held in Logansport. This board further determines those boys who are eligible for letters in all our high school sports, these being football under the tutelage of Coach Puett, a former Butler football star, track and B basketball under Mr. Kniesly, and golf, tennis, and basketball under Mr. Wells. The specific duties of the board are as follows: Mr. Cox, ex officio member, passes upon the eligibility of all the boys participating in high school athletics and has a veto power over all activities of the board, Mr. Mertz, the treasurer, has charge of ticket sales and the payment of all athletic bills, and Mr. Wells, athletic, director, supervises athletics in sen- ior and also in the junior high school. The board, however, subordinates the aforementioned duties to their paramount interest: namely, developing the mental, moral, and physical fitness of their players. The Athletic As- sociation maintains that its primary purpose is to make men out of boys, to instil into them drive, stamina, and determination-in short, to develop true sportsmanship. Logansport is indeed fortunate in having such a well qualified group directing its athletics.

In order to achieve this goal only those boys whose mental and moral attributes are of the highest quality are selected. Each September, the Hi-Y initiates into its organization those boys who have proved them- selves fitted to maintain the high ideals of the Hi-Y. The Hi-Y, together with the Hi- Tri, distributes each year Thanks- giving and Christmas donations to the needy. The Hi-Y also has an an- nual parents' and sons' banquet and last, but by no means least, the Hi-Y best girls' banquet, always a huge success. Members of the Logansport chap- ter are: Robert Baer, Lowell Beck, Willis Best, Lionel Billman, Bob Bunger, Robert Buntain, Dudley Chase, Al- fred Cowley, Eugene Dixon, Jack Drompp, Claire Dunderman, Ralph Ebe1'ts, Richard Elliott, Howard Guckien, Don H.ess, Alan Hildebrandt, Bob Hill, Raymond Hitchens, Gene Huffman, James Huston, Richard James, Joe Kreutzer, Lincoln Landis, Charles Leffert, Jack Lyons, Art Mc- Grath, David Petrie, Ben Richason, Robert Rinehart, Bob Sayre, Herman Schmitt, Don Settles, Jack Stein- wedel, Jack Stuart, Russel Vance, Dick Waters, Joe Wiler, John Wil- liams, and Richard Wilson.

PAGE THIRTY-FOUR Hi-Tri, L. H. S. chapter of thc Y. W. C. A- girl rese1'ves, with its membership of approximately 200 girls is the largest organiza- tion of the high school. The club is democratic, admitting to mem- bership any girl who will take its code as her own and subscribe to its purpose To find and give the best. Regular meetings are held on alternate Wednesdays. Some of these are devoted to the discus- sion of questions in which the girls are interested, some of them are designed to give the girls a good time. Among the purely social meetings were the Gold Digger's Leap Year Dance, for which the girls turned es- corts, and a joint meeting with the Hi-Y. In the several years of its ex- istence Hi-Tri has established a number of traditions. Among these a1'e the rough initiation, which is fun for the old mem- bers but hard on the initiatesg the impressive candlelight ser- vice, which is the formal initia- tiong the planting of the ivy, a feature of the senior farewellg and the senior picnic, which com- pletes the activities of the year. The vocal music of the Logansport school system is under the very capable direction of Miss Thelma Sines, In the high school she directs three groups: the girls' chorus and the mixed chorus, which meet on Wed- nesday and Friday, and the choir, which meets dai'y. Eighty-five 'students are enrolled in t h e combined clubs. Music is an elemtive subject in Logansport H i gh School, and hence only those persons who are genuinely interested are enrolled. School periods are used fO1 practice time. A num- ber of programs are given during the yea1'. cHoRUs On December 17 the combined choruses, singing from the bal- cony, made an effective and impressive accompaniment to the tab- leaus of the Christmas pageant. On December 22 the mixed chorus, wearing their black robes with red stoles, presented a short program in the Berry Bowl during the intermission between games. On Feb- ruary 2O the mixed Qhorus and girls' chorus took part in the Music Boosters' Club benefit performance given in the high school audi- torium. With the cooperation of the band and orchestra, they staged a very entertaining musical program- Again this year all the choruses participated in the four-city music festival which was held in Peru on May 1. Here music lovers heard beautiful vocal selections as well as the mass band and orchestra numbe1's. The mixed chorus rendered selections in the high school auditorium on the World Day of Prayer, February 9, and sang Easter songs in the corridors during Holy Week. They also sang at the Baccalaureate services, and at Commencement. These music organizations, the choir, the mixed chorus, and the girls' chorus, offer students of Logansport High School an op- portunity to receive valuable training under capable direction. l PAGE THIRTY-FIVE CHRISTMAS PFKGEHNT The Christmas pageant, already a tradition at L. ll.. S., is one of the most impressive piograms of the en- tire school year. Various organiza- tions participate in this event. The dramatics club, the music, depa1'tment. the art class, and the student council cooperate to furnish a Jrogram of l which the whole school can be proud, This year by means of song, choral scripture reading, and tableaus the as 3 Christmas story was told. leace on Earth was the title given to the pageant, which presented the follow- ing scenes: Christmas Chimes, The Annunciation, The Nativity, Shep- herds in the Fields, llerod and the Magi, and The Adoration. The program was presented for the general public on Sunday, Decembei 17, and was repeated for the students the following day. The large attend- ancie on Sunday afternoon and the favorable comments of the audience indicated an appreciation of the hne program. Lower Tableau: i l'he Adoration. Here the entire east of the pageant is assembled. Joseph and Mary, shown in the center, were enacted by David Petrie and Velma Siterd. PAGE THIRTY-SIX Upper Tableau: Shepherds Abidingg in the Fields. In this scene the angel who ap- pears to the shepherds as they watch their flocks was portrayed by Marjorie Kuhn. Dramatics Club The large membership of the Dra- matics Club indicates that it is one of the popular clubs of L. H. S. The club has completed four sepa- rate and distinct projects this year: the Christmas Vespers, which was beautifully presented and received favorable commentg the dramatic dec- lamationsg a one-act play entitled. The Prettiest Girl In T0wn g and the senior class play. Although the class play was not under the direct supervision of the Dramatics Club, its members gave material help to the committee in charge- Much of the success of the club is due to the capable supervision of Miss Hartz, who has been its sponsor for several years. OFFICERS President, Howard Guckien Vice-President, Alberta Grindle Secretary, Martha Raber Treasurer, Marjorie Kuhn OFFICERS Consuls, Dudley Chase Mary Been Praetor, Mary Lou Drompp Scribae, Joe Guckien Etta J. Wilkinson Latin Club Some very interesting and educa- tional meetings have been held in the Latin Club this year. In order to add variety and to educate as well as en- tertain, quiz programs were held. The questions pertained to Roman history, mythology, and Latin. Each year the club has a speakei for one of its meetings. Mr. R. S. Jus- tice, L. H. S. history teacher and de- bate adviser, spoke this year on Latin at Harvard. He told of the many Latin quotations found on the walls at Harvard, most of which are legal terms, and interpreted them for the club. He also stressed the impor- tance of Latin in law. PAGE THIRTY SEVEN Debate Squad The purpose of such an organization as the debate squad is to train boys and girls of the high school to speak with greater fluency, to give them self-con- fidence in speaking before a group, and to enable them to think on their feet. The contests in which Loganspo1't has participated have shown conclusively that the members of the debate squad have profited by their instructions and practice. For their success much credit is due to their coach, Mr. Robert S. Jus- tice. Early in the season Richard Wilson won speaking contests at LaPorte and Ft. Wayneg A1'thur McGrath won in ex- temporaneous speaking c o n t e s t s at North Side of Ft- Wayne and at Lafay- ette: and Marian Mcliaig and Annette Blackburn also won at Lafayette in oratorical and dramatic declamation. Nationai Forensic League For three years Logansport has been a member of the National Forensic League, an honorary high school speech society. Membership in this organization is determined by a point system, the points being ea1'ned by participation in speech contests. The purpose of this or- ganization is to stimulate and reward interscholastic speech competition. The National Forensic League holds annual state and national contests, this year's state and national both being held at Terre Haute. Last year several of our students attended the National held at Beverly Hills, California. This year the Rotary Club of Logans- port is sponsoring the Work of the Na- tional Forensic League by purchasing and presenting N. F. L. keys to the new members who have earned them. Sev- eral members of the league spoke in the Rotary discussion contest. PAGE THIRTY EIGHT DEBFKTE TERM The debate team is chosen from the debate squad. The members of the squad who make the best show- ing on preliminary teams are chosen by Mr. Justice for the var- sity team. This year's team was composed of Richard Wilson and Marian Mcliaig, first affirmative speakers, Elizabeth Deane, second affirmative speaker, Jeanne Foun- taine, first negative speakerg and Nedra Ann Pierce, second negative speaker. Other members of the de- bate squad, though not participa- ting in varsity debates, gave exhi- bition debates, spoke before var- ious clubs and schools, and took part in all other forms of speech work. Speakers from the squad have appeared at Rotary Club, American Association of Univers- ity Women, Knights of Columbus, Exchange Club, The Elks, Business and Professional Women's Club, Izaak Walton League, and the Washington Township P a r e n t - Teachers' Association. They also made speeches for the Red Cross at local theatres. The proposition used for varsity debate is seleclted by the National University Extension Association. The question chosen this year, Rc- solved, That the railroads should be owned and operated by the United States Government, was es- pecially interesting to our debaters, as Logansport is primarily a rail- road City- The debate team has had a suc- cessful seasong it participated in 142 debates of which 16 were non-- decisional. Of the 126 debates in which decisions were rendered, Lo- gansport won 89. In order to par- ticipate in these debates, the Lo- gansport team t1'aveled more than four thousand miles. The climax of the year came in Loganspo1't's plac- ing first in debate in the National Forensic League state champion- ship tournament held at Tcrrc Haute on March 13 and 14. The winning of this position in the state contest entitles us to partici- pate in the national contest. The opportunities which debate offers for contacts with students from other schools and more espec- ially the valuable training that it affords are giving debate an in- creasingly impo1'tant place among high school activities. PAGE THIRTY NINE PAGE FORTY Winter Scene The wind is blowing f1'om the north this evening past the long, dark barns standing tranquilly in the cold dusk as though protecting with their solidity all that lies beneath the frosted roofs. Three gray pigeons flutter about beneath the eaves, looking for the high window with the broken pane, and below a pig snuffles in a pile of mouldy straw. Behind the tall barns the earth tilts upward to the silent woods only to fall away to gullies and leaf-padded slopes held in their places forever by the deep burrowing roots. At a blast of air the black trees seem to draw together into a blacker, more unfathomable mass against the sky. 'They rise against a thick gray sky threaded with streaks of scarlet that run from the dull red sun, half sunk below the rim of woods. Low skies even though lit by a red sun, are prophetic of snow. And this time it will not be a soft blanket of white falling in fragile clusters of wetnessg rather the brittle needles will blow out of the east and north to lie like stars on the black woodpile and melt in the slowly congealing mud. Then as the earth hardens, the white powder will catch between furrows in the tree bark and in the stiff, matted grass, and the hardy flakes will harry the brown of the earth and the purple of the weed stalks in the wheat field. The barnyard and the deep woods slope always downward past the dying plum thicket, the gnarled haw trees, and the shaggy hick- ories. In the bottom field the tiny gullies are hidden by a haze of silvery gray grasses, and in a farther field the green of winter wheat gleams through black branches in the dividing ravine. But beyond and eclipsing it all with its majestic aloofness is the sweep of the smoky valley overhung now with blue and purple haze. For winter centuries all that lies before me has belonged to the deer, the 'coons, and the foxes on moonlight nights, to the Indians and the white meng but this evening it is mine to keep forever, for beauty and for happi- IIGSS. YEllen Searight. Trees In Winter The tree boughs are drooping So heavy they are. The ice makes them prettier, More lovely by far Than trees with green foliage Or yellow or red.

Audrey McElroy led a group of boys and girls in a song and dance act, Sing and Spell. Mary Katherine Reed and six girls dressed in cow- girl costumes sang a hillbilly song. A ballet by eight graceful junior boys had the stu- dents lite1'ally rolling in the aisles. The latest thing in slacks, street clothes, and formal attire was presented in the style show.

PAGE FORTY-TH REE An event to which both juniors and sen- iors look forward eagerly is the Prom. The junior class, as hosts, must see that the guests of honor, the seniors, enjoy the dance. Since it is the most ambitious project under- taken by the junior class, each class in turn tries to outdo the preceding classes in the brilliance of its entertainment. Therefore the class officers appoint committees with great care. The Prom this year was held on May 24 in the old gym. Gene Hyman, as general chairman, was given the responsibility of seeing that all the committees functioned well. The various committees, namely, band, refreshment, reception, program, ticket, dec- oration, floor, and entertainment were head- ed respectively by Maribel Young, Josephine Newby,'Virginia Hopple, Audrey McElroy, Dick Waters, Ben Richason, Dick Minnick, and Lou Alber. In all forty-six students served on various committees.

That is what's doing when there's no basketball game, but when there's a game, the bobsleds and toboggans are idle, and everyone goes to back the team. Whether it's raining, snowing, sleeting, or hailing, or whether the moon and stars shine brightly makes no difference to Indiana basketball fans -they follow their teams. During the season, basketball's the thing. If the game is close, the rafters ring with shouts and cheers, and whether we win or lose, the crowd goes away saying, It was a good game. aff AL?

This year's team, though handicapped by lack of height, Sam Goodale being the only player topping the six foot mark, lived up to this motto even in the last minute of a losing game. What they lacked in height, they made up in speed and stamina. The season's record was fairly successful, the team winning eleven out of the twenty games. Outstanding games were the ones in which we won over Marion, the conference champs, and the three that gave us victory over Jeff. The cllimax of the entire season was the triumph over Brook- ston C52 471 by which Logansport won the regional at Peru. Bud Pitman and Claire Dunderman led the terrific last-minute drive which won the game, scoring ten points in two minutes. At the final gun bedlam reignedg players and fans alike were almost overcome with excitement. Almost as thrilling was the performance of the Berries in the semi-final tourna- ment when they overcame an eight point handicap to beat Jeff by one point. Sammy Goodale, who has played very fine basketball all season, and Don llalde1'man sparked the attack- In the final game of the tournament Logansport lost by a score of 39-33 to Hammond Tech, whose superior height gave them a decided advantage. Scrubby Beal's uncanny ability with his left-handed shots pulled liogansport out of the fire more than once. Huck Long's fine guarding on one oqcasion held Laughner, Frankfort high point man, to two points. Jack Steinwedel's experience this year will make him a valuable addition to next year's team. Joe Savini, Ray Hitchens, Bob Graf, Alfred Cowley, and Russell Vance, when called upon, upheld their end. Mr. Clifford Wells has coached Logans- port's basketball teams for eighteen years. His ability as a coach is known by basketball fans in every section of Indiana. PAGE FORTY-SIX 5 H. g, E 1 9061!

The record of the Bees, 11 won-8 lost, is satisfactory when one takes into consideration the fact that these boys, though only sophomores, were competing with the varsity teams of many of the smaller high schools. The B team is a well-rounded team: Paul Kiesling, Pete Daschner, and Clar- ence Peck furnish the necessary drive and sizeg Billy Moore and Bob Sweet have plenty of all-round basketball abil- ity: and Mike Long and Mike Fansler have the height so essential for a championship team.

Each month one boy is chosen to attend all club lun- cheons and sit in on the meetings. The boy chosen is given a membership card and is considered a regular member of the club. Rotarians hope in this way to acquaint outstanding boys with the nature of the club and to interest them in its service program. Beginning in January of this year two boys have been invited to become honorary Rotarians in- stead of one. The boys are selected by Mr. Cox on the basis of their school activities. PCST GRRDUFKTES Seven members of the Class of '39 returned to school this year to continue their education.

BRND Enthusiasm and co-operation com- bined with good music have been the keynotes of the L. H. S. band during the years that it has been directed by Mr. Marocco. The size of the band has increased to eighty-six members and with its increase in size has come im- proved performance. Its effectiveness in formation and marching maneu- vers is due in no small degree to the work of the student director and drum major, Gene Huffman. The band renders a very valuable service to L. H. S., playing at all bas- ket and football games, for pep ses- sions, snake dances, and parades. It took part in the May festival, and in the Music Boosters' Club concert. It responds willingly to requests to take part in any community project. The band has a five-year plan - to increase its membership to 100- FAGE Fl FTY SEVEN SENIOR CLRSS PLFKY The senior class presented N e W Fires, a three act comedy by Charles Quimby Burdette, on the stage of the high school auditorium on April 26. A picture of everyday life, an interesting plot, real characters, witty remarks, and much wholesome humor were all blended together in this play to make the acting enjoyable to the cast and the presenta- tion entertaining to the audience. The plot tells what happens when a family come from the big city to live on a farm in a backwoods community: how a worthless city dude becomes a pros- perous farmer, how the attractive daughter capitulates to the s t ro n g, young country doctor, and how the fam- ily, who had drifted apart, slowly find their way back together. Miss Dorothy Wilson directed the play. A committee of teachers and stu- dents, of which Miss Amelia Hartz was chairman, was responsible for the prop- erties, stage setting and decoration, lighting, costuming, publicity, and sale of tickets. The work of this committee was as important to the success of the play as was that of the pupils privileged to appear behind the footlights. The cast follows: Stephen Santry, an author-Gene Huff- man Anne, his wife-Margaret McTaggart Billy, his son-Joe Wiler Phyllis, his daughter-Suzanne Greens- felder Olive, his daughter-Marjorie Kuhn Dick, his son-Dick Wilson Eve, Dick's wife-Evelyn Cuppy Doctor Lynn Gray-Howard Guckien Lucinda, housekeeper-Helen liroeger Suzaane, Lucinda's helper - Mary Mc- Guire Sid Sperry, a farm hand - F r a n c i s Crowe Jerry Sperry, Sid's son-Lincoln Landis Mary Marshall, a young neighbor-Mar- garet Dale Mrs. Marshall-Dixie Lux Angie, Sid's wife-Betty Birkhold PAGE FIFTY-EIGHT N atlonal Honor Soclehj There are forty-nine active members in the Logan chapter of the National llonor Society, thirty-seven of whom are seniors. The twelve junior members elected in the spring of 1940 will con- stitute the nucleus of the club for next year. The initiation held on March 19, 1940, was the first public initiation, and the first to be held at night. Candidates were notified of their election in ad- vance instead of having the announce- ment come as a surprise during the in- itiation ceremony. Election to the llonor Society is by vote of the faculty, the election being' made on the basis of scholarship, lead- ership, character, and service. Whether a student is elected or not depends as much upon the kind of person he is as upon what he has done. Each year the llonor Society sponsors some project which it feels will benefit the school. This year their project was a school of parliamenta1'y law, intended to help officers of classes, clubs, and other organizations perform their du- ties niore efficiently. Miss Maru Smith is faculty sponsor of the llonor Society. OFFICERS President 111... Elizabeth Deane Vice-PresidentcJlary Jane lieen Secretary --lXIarg'aret McTag'g'art Treasurer .... Geneva Townsend PAGE FIFTV NINE PAGE SIXTY Guidance and Placement Guidance and placement is a comparatively new idea that has been introduced into the curricula of high schools. Probably the Logansport Senior High School has contributed as much to this new movement as any other high school in the United States. Because of the excellent leadership of our principal, Mr. Cox, and because of the originality and success of the service itself, our school has gained a national reputation for having or- ganized and put into operation the first successful high school placement bureau. We are proud indeed of Mr. Cox and of the school itself. Guidance and placement are so closely connected that the two services can be classified as one. While the guidance program prepares the student for placement, it is also strengthened and benefited by the placement ser- vice. The present guidance system aims to make the program as much of an individual function as possible. Although individual guidance is desir- able, it is almost impossible in a school of any size. However, the advan- tages of individual guidance have been secured to some degree by grouping students according to their class and the course they are taking. Under the direction of a faculty sponsor, each group discusses the problems and conditions that pertain to the interest of the group. The 10B groups begin by acquainting themselves with the customs and laws of the school and learning how to adjust themselves to the new environment which they have entered. A gradually expanding program is planned to meet the needs of each group in the eleventh and twelfth years as these needs become ap- parent. The ultimate goals which the guidance program seeks to attain are to help the student select his future vocation, to furnish him with the prerequisite subjects, to adapt the subject and the ways of teaching it to the vocation, and finally to place him in that vocation. A special activity of the guidance program is the visit of Mr. Chester Sanford, a guidance expert, who speaks to the senior class and conducts private interviews with more than half of the graduating class. Another activity of the guidance department is the School of Vocational Informa- tion. From a survey of the occupations in which all pupils are interested, a list of those vocations in which most students are interested is compiled. Then periods of instruction are arranged for which speakers are supplied by the service clubs of Logansport. Just as the guidance program is concerned with serving the best in- terests of the student while he is in school, the placement service intends to continue to serve his interests after he graduates. information con- cerning the pupil's scholastic equipment, his personality traits, and the kind of job he desires is kept on file, and an effort is made to place him in the position best fitted to his needs and abilities. After he has been placed, a follow-up program concerns itself with his success in the job and keeps his file up-to-date. Through questionaires, graduates are given an oppor- tunity to offer suggestions to the guidance and placement bureau. This follow-up service is probably as important to the future of placement as is any other phase of the service. Since the establishment of the placement bureau in 1935 there has been a steady increase in the percentage of students actually placed in out- side jobs. Many students still in school are helped to find part-time em- ployment. The placement service is concerned not only with securing employment for high school graduates, but also with placing graduates in the right colleges. Probably in the future in all high schools the place- ment service will be included as part of the school's regular activities. SPRING SPORTS Q if if , fl' N l IW SSS . if No doubt it is as true in Logansport High School as elsewhere that in the spring a young man's fancy lightly turns to thoughts of loveg but it is equally true that his fancy turns also to the out-of-doors. It is the call of the outdoors that determines the nature of spring sports. The soft spring air gives an added zest to tennisg the feel of the turf be- neath one's feet makes golf more than a gameg and no doubt it is the quickening of his blood in response to the stirring of new life in everything about him that lends wings to the feet of the boy whose speed on the track wins our admiration. Strolling, too, though an all-season sport becomes even more exhilarating with its transfer from the halls to the parks and sidewalks. Of all the spring sports strolling is by far the most popular, student participation there- in all but reaching the 100 per cent mark. Tennis, golf, and track combined run a poor second. -r .fI7TN f 9 QYV - ,.,1. X f dxf ap xx xg' 4 X 4' .

Now after nine years, we again have an active track team. For the second year under the able tutelage of Coach Norbert Kniesly, boys are par- ticipating in a number of track events. Last season was fairly suc- cessful. One runner, Kay Hilkert, placed second in the half mile at the state meet. Another, Calvin Allen, ranked very high with the shotput at Kokomo. This year's prospects are very good: Bill Moore looks promising in the pole vault, Jack Gray in the shotput, Bill Reid in hurdling, Jack Bauer and Gaylord Saunders in the distance, and Russel Vance and Bob Sweet in the dashes. In practice the boys are training hard and should score very high in the four meets in which we are to participate: Delphi invitational, April 28, conference meet, Central Indiana conference meet, and the sectional meet at Kokomo. In order to win their letters these boys must win an event in the conference meet, qualify for state, or win fifteen points at all meets. The awards probably will be a red letter on a white coat sweater. Tennis Coach Kniesly has done wonders for Logansport's minor sports, and the increasing interest in tennis is one of his important accomplish- ments. An elimination contest was the means used by the coach to select this year's racquet team. The team chosen was composed of one junior, Robert Bunger, and three sopho- mores, Ralph Dashner, Raymond Jus- tice, and Harland Carew. Bob Davis a junior, was ineligible for inter- 7 Golf, one of the five sports required for Big Ten competition, is coached by Mr. Wells. Two freshmen, one junior, and two seniors composed the golf squad this spring- Logansport's is one of the hundred scholastic competition. Davis, who was school champion as well as city champion of the junior division, would have been a great asset to the team. Logansport participated in live North Central Conference matches. In these conference games, Logans- port defeated Frankfort 3 to 2 and Kokomo 4 to 1. They lost to Jeff of Lafayette 3 to 2 and 4 to 1 and to Marion 5 to 1. Golf teams that take part in the state golf meet at the Speedway Golf Course in Indianapolis. Several very good golfers have played on Logansport's teams and later on college teams. Intramural Basketball Since basketball fever has always run very high in L.H S., the athletic board, several years ago, instituted intramural basketball so that every boy in high school might have a chance to play Indiana's favorite game. This year the intramural tourna- ment gained so in popularity that seventeen teams were organized and entered. These teams were made up of any high school boys who wished to play, except those who had played on the high school basketball teams. Through a process of elimination the winning team was determined, and on Recognition Day members of this team were presented with ster- ling silver basketballs. PAGE SIXTY THREE PAGE GlRL'S PHYSICAL EDUCATION The objectives of physical educa- tion 2l1'9 health, citizenship training, and the worthy use of leisure time. At one time health was conside1'ed the only objective, but discoveries in physiology and psychology, and a more thorough going philosophy of education have changed our concep- tion of the nature of learning and the relation of physical training to it. Through physical education a girl has an opportunity to develop good habits and attitudes. Among these are co-operation, honesty, loyalty, leadership, and fair play, all of them attitudes which are important in ed- ucation for desirable conduct and character. Pupils taking physical ed- ucation must think problems through, set up their goals in real fashion, and keep in mind the 1'ights of othe1's. SIXTY-FOUR Five semesters of work in physical education are required for all girls. Classes meet twice weekly. Some- times the work consists of exercises: at other times it takes the form ol' marching, dancing, or playing games. In the old gym, Where classes are held, is a bulletin board, arranged and kept up-to-date by Miss Patter- son, on which students can always find things of interest. For instance, a paper, Sportingly Yours, tells about physical education work being done in high schools all over the Mld- dle West- A shuffle board and ping pong equipmnet have been installed in the gym and this year for the first time these games can be played at school. Miss Dorothy Patterson is the able instructor in girls' physical education classes. G. The local Girls' Athletic Associa- tion is a member of the Indiana League of High School Girls' Ath- letic Associations. The object of the league is to stimulate interest and to promote ideals in the health and physical activities of girls. Membership in the association is open to all girls in our high school. Members are given a certain number of points for participation in any one of three g1'oups of ac- tivities: organized activities, un- organized activities, and achieve- ment tests. Organized activities are carried on under the direction of Miss Patterson, unorganized activ- ities a1'e unsupervised and are car- ried on by the individual outside of school, th e achievement tests measure the proficiency attained in certain skills. When a member of the association has earned 150 points by participation in any of these activities, she is awarded a monogram, for 250 points, a letter, and for 350 she may receive a state award. R Fl. The Girls' Athletic Association got off to a late start this year due to the fact that the old gym was being remodeled. Then amidst the odor of paint and varnish the girls began the year's activities with basketball. Other activities for the year have included volley ball, soc- cer, baseball, softball, tennis, hik- ing, ping pong, bowling, and shuf- fle board. In the Round Robin tournament which closed the basketball season, the seniors defeated both the soph- omore and junior teams, the con- test with the juniors being a nip- and-tuck affai1'. The bowling tour- nament took the form of a ladder, each girl challenging the one whose name on the ladder formed the round above her own name. At the end of the tournament Jo Newby's name occupied the top rung and she was proclaimed the winner of the tournament. Officers: President, Josephine Newby, Vice-President, Elaine Col- lette, Secretary- Treasurer, Lou Alber. PAGE SIXTY FIVE PAGE SIXTY SIX I Write a Theme Just as into every life some rain must fall so into every English course must come some theme work. I go on from day to day not realizing how comparatively simple our literature assignments are until one day I am assigned a theme. Now it may be I haven't any thrilling experiences to tell and not enough imagination to carry my readers into the exciting lands of adventure-yet I must produce a theme. Therefore, I seat myself in a comfortable chair, determined to think of something. The atmosphere is perfect: quiet reigns, I have the whole house to myself. I sit in a receptive moods but, alas, nothing comes to me save the constant ticking of the clock. A feeling of desperation seizes me: the night is rapidly wasting away, I must do something. After having chewed three pencils to the lead, I find I have on paper a few commonplace ideas, slightly developed, as the only tangible sign of my efforts. Disgusted and tired, I decide to go to bed. After all, the human mind and body can stand just so much, and there are two study periods tomorrow. In the morning with my first waking moment comes the thought of that unfinished work. I go off to school and attend two classes-still no inspiration. Then come those two assemblies, those eighty minutes in which that task must somehow be accomplished. I'll spare you the details of those forty-eight hundred seconds, only I shall ever know what agonies they brought. The bell rings. Finished? Well, I have the theme in pencil. 1 drag my utensils home to write it in ink. Are my tribulations at an end? No. I forego my lunch, feeling, in truth, a martyr as I spend the lunch period copying, checking, and rechecking my theme. 1 feel relieved and care free after handing it in. This easy state of mind lasts until my theme is returned. I open it cautiously- My eye catches the note at the end: You should work harder on themes-spend more time on them. Half indignant, half despairing, I put it down-Oh, gee, what's the use? My mind wanders off to Utopia-an English course without themes. -AMARY PARISI. My lip still bleeds Where I bit it To keep it from trembling so- I'm glad my heart Is deep inside Where the hurt on it won't show. -Margaret McTagga1t.

M arian McKaig Treasurer -.,-- On May 27 the Class of '40 will bid farewell to L.H.S., resigning its position as SENIOR class to the Class of '41. Many things it must leave behind-all those experiences and activities which together constitute high school lifeg but certain things its members can carry with them: memories of good times, valuable friendships, and at least a little learning. To some of its activities and accom- plishments during its three years in L.H..S. the class can point with pride. Among these are the Sophomore Swing, the successful magazine drive which it carried out as a junior class, the World's Fair Prom, the first to be held in the Berry Bowl, and the TATTLER drive in which all TATTLER subscription rec- ords were broken. An even deeper source of pride is the spirit of enthus- iasm and cooperation which has char- acterized all the undertakings of the class and made possible its success.

Whether we sail safely or are shipwrecked on this sea depends in part upon what we have learned and made of ourselves in these last three years. Those of us who have learned co-operation, service, courtesy, and cheerfulness through our associations here will be better able to breast the waves and solve our problems. Those who have gone through high school unwilling to learn these and other principles will not have a founda- tion on which to build a place for themselves in life. How can they expect to cope with their problems if they lack these essentials? In the next few years we hope that we shall not be saying, If I Qhad only listened to that teacher, I might have known this now when I most need it , or If he had stuck to his tasks when he was in high school, he might be able to hold down a job 5 or She cheated in high school, too. Every member of every graduating class no doubt has many prayers offered for his success in life. No doubt each mother and father pray that their son or daughter has found the key to right living and will not find the world too hard and cruel. We hope that we shall not disappoint our mothers and fathers, our teachers and friends. We want to show them that we have not spent our three years here in vain-that we have learned to direct our course so that we shall not be swept away by the tide of this sea of life. -Betty Jean Grace A Song of Spring It's spring! - and all the world is singing songs, Songs of love and beauty, birds and flow- ers. It's spring! - and from its cold, wintry bower, All the world is wakened to the strong Impulse of excitement, buried for so long In winter's hard, forbidding, forlorn tower. It's spring! - and all life's ecstasy and power Is bursting into song from earth's glad throng. I, too, am thrilled by all that comes with springg I, too, am singing songs of love and beauty. Each me1'ry note that's sent by birds on high Vibrates within my heart and makes it ring. Each bud that bursts in blooming majesty Makes my heart and all the world reply. -Marian Bulander. PAGE EIGHTY-TWO When Spring Is Covne How do I know that winter is done? By the longer day, the warmer sung By the b1'oken ice and the melting snow, By the swollen stream, the overflow, By the southland's kindly, gentle breeze, By the new life in the maple trees- By the little robin's cheerful note, By the redbird, brave in his shining coat, By the Wren's nest on the garden wall, By the starling's song from the treetop tall. By the way the whole world seems to Sing To remind me, tell me, this is spring! -Ethel May Morton. I -in-x .--L f 9 3 PAGE EIGHTY-THREE W 1 TRTTLER MARCH Our very popular senior editor is out of school recovering from an ap- pendectomy. Students get a four period vacation to attend the sectional basketball tourney. Berries crowned sectional champions. The Magpie offers to buy book jack- ets for the class of 40's classy an- nual. Woman-hater Williams was seen walking down the street behind a cloud of cigar smoke. Thousands of fans go to Peru for the regional, and see the thrill of the season as Berries beat Brookston. An all-time rccord for Tattler sales has been set this year. Three cheers for the class of '40, The Magpie printed the senior offi- cer's junior pictures. There must be something in Darwin's theory. Debate squad goes to Terre Haute, and Art Pigs is Pigs McGrath is absent from staff meeting. The fighting Berries are beaten in the semi-ofinals, as Hammond Tech gets lucky in the final minutes of the game. Many students have developed an acute case of spring fever as the thermometer hits the high seventies. School is dismissed at 3:31 to begin the Easter vacation of five days. Easter Sunday and the ground hog surely were right about that six weeks of' winter. Snow today. As a General Motors representative prepared to do an experiment with gaso.ine, a fire alarm removed his audience. The basketball team get letters and basketballs. Which girl will soon be wearing whose basketball? APRIL Some bright student spread the ru- mor that there will be no :finals this term. April Fool! PAGE EIGHTY FOUR CRLENDRR Junior class sponsors an auditor- ium entitled Spring Follies. The junior boys make nice looking chorus girls. Hi-Y Mother and Father banquet is postponed at the last minute. Dick Laymon informs the sociology class that he is going to live what he learns and become socialized. Call Ripley! All work on the first section of the Tattler is due today. School dance is acclaimed best one this year. After a very careful calculation, we find that twelve students of L.H.S. have taken their matrimonial vows. Good ole leap year, eh, girls? The Elks give a banquet and dance in honor of our basketball team. An all-girl orchestra provided music for the dance, which was open to all the students. Ritz Trumpeteers appear in the aud- itorium as one of our free paid programs. Here's that old problem again: get- ting your parents to sign the back of your report card, withput looking at the grades. It's a neat trick, but impossible. Hi-Y Best Girl banquet. The class play, New Fires, makes the audience explode with laughter. MAY Music festival at Peru. The sophomores treat themselves to a dance and party. Juniors sponsor dance for funds for the Prom. Final exams. Ditto. Geoffrey O'Hara, composer, is the last of free paid auditoriums. Senior day. Junior-senior prom. Baccalaureate service. At last-Commencement. RALPH EBERTS, Date-keeper. We of the TATTLER Staff wish to express to the business men who have cooperated with us by using this, the TATTLER of 1940, as an advertising me- dium, our sincere thanks and deep appreciation. Their cour- teous reception of our solicitors was encouraging and their ready and generous response to re- quests for advertising has helped materially in making possible the financial success of this book. We earnestly solicit for all the merchants W h 0 s e advertise- ments appear on the following pages patronage as generous as was their support of the TATTLER. .fTf7fN Yip 'sf f X fgpl Xi 4 J pm f'A'1Qf!f 0' A l I- A .Nxt I X1 I V PAGE EIGHTY-FIVE ++++++++++++++++++++4+++++++++++++++ The Seybold Dry Goods Co.
