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. PAGE TWENTY THREE

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
