Along with the journalism, the art work stands out as an important yearbook factor. The art department is to be praised for its work these past twenty-five years. The art work has always ranked high in all inter-scholastic yearbook com- petition. Every senior stands at attention and salutes the passing shadows of the past twenty- four editors.

We are dedicating only a book, the memory of one precious year. You have consecrated to us a lifetime of love and service, with the hope that We, in the future, may complete the tasks you have begun and fulfil the dreams that you have cherished for us. You have given to us a torch of ideals and ambitions. It is our duty and our privilege to bear it upward, to lift high the token of your love, and to send out a clearer, brighter light along the path of progress. Thus, may We prove Worthy of our heritage and feel that in some measure We have merited your faith in us. A scene south through the beautiful park at McCulloch Junior High School I N MEMU DY E hold in high esteem the memory of Wil- liam Meng, an outstanding Marion High School senior, Who passed away June 30, 1930. William possessed the characteristics that iden- tified him as a brilliant student, as a conscientious and willing Worker, and as a dependable and loyal friend. The departments of Latin and chemistry, and the band claimed him as one of their most talented members. . It is beyond all mortal comprehension why a youth with such a promising future should be taken so early in life. But the memory of Wil- liam and his achievements lives and shall continue to live in the hearts of his family and many friends.

Practically every candidate, nomi- nated by a petition filed at the principal's office, had his campaign manager, and publicity went thick and fast for about a week before the actual balloting. Post- ers, advertising the prowess of each student candidate, were posted on every as- sembly board and in the main hallways. The two other candidates besides Moore for the oflice of president were Paul Meyer, football, track and basketball star, and Allison Holt, associate editor of The Survey. The other three officers elected were vice-president, Xen Pence, son of Mr. and Mrs. O, O. Pence, secretary, Helen Boxell, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Will Boxellg treasurer, Max Townsend, son of Mr, and Mrs. Clifford Townsend. The three minor oflices were as publicly proclaimed as that of the presidency. The committee appointed by Principal Kendall to handle the election was composed of Richard Reynolds, chairman, Mary Gartland, Josephine Strands, James Reed, and Robert Hardesty. Miss Gladys Lewis and V. A. Smith, class sponsors, also aided in counting the ballots, which numbered more than any ever cast by a senior class in Marion High School. Each of the four officers carried out the particular duties that his oflice re- quired. The social statis of the '31 class during the year was a result of the ef- forts of VJilbur Moore, who saw the need of such activity and appointed stu- dents who were fitted to carry out the details. Class meetings were held from time to time in the auditorium. ITACIIJS l93l KARL CULP ALLISON HoLT RICHARD F. REYNOLDS MARY GARTLAND SEN IDD CLASS ACTIVITI ES 'I-HE SOCIAL WELFARE, of the class of '31 was not neglected. A party and dance at Memorial Coliseum in the fallg a party in the springg a pic- nic at Wawonaissa Glens, class banquet, senior day program and senior parade during Senior Week: ending finally with the Commencement, May 28, rounded out the activities of the year. According to tradition, Wilbur Moore, class president, appointed a com- mittee and named the chairman in every instance. The committee, working together with the executive committee, was responsible for the success of the parties. A committee was also appointed late in the year to handle the Com- mencement invitations. The first party, known as a Chilly Hop, was held at Memorial Colise- um, and was in direct charge of Karl Culp. Card playing, and games were en- joyed by the class members. The local DeMolay orchestra furnished music for those who wished to dance. To carry out the mood of the party, chili and crackers and hot chocolate were served. Allison Holt was appointed by President Moore as chairman of the an- nual senior frolic-the picnic. The picnic was held at Wawonaissa Glens, Several minor committees were named by Chairman Holt. Senior Week activities were in charge of Richard Reynolds. The Senior paraded this year was held the week before Senior Week. A program for the entire school was presented early in the week. Special committees were appoint- ed for all of these events. The Senior Banquet, the crowning event of the class's social activities, was in charge of Mary Gartland. Dancing was enjoyed after the dinner. CACTIJS I93i ,- 2-1- CAROLYN ADAMS An interesting combination of cleuerness, art, and fun.

Miss Helen Wortman and Miss Louise Craft were named the class sponsors by Principal Kendall. The sponsors carried out their duties excellently and were largely responsible for the social activities of the class. Following the election, the executive committee nominated the activities and ring committees. The activities committee was composed of Harry Ander- son, chairmang LaDial Simmons, Verne Owen, Clara Clouser, Howard Wil- liams, and Lois Crawford. The ring committee included George Heavilin, chair- mang Mary Fruchey, Kenneth Kennedy, Harriet Daniels and Paul Young. Two parties and a picnic were immediately planned by the activities com- mittee. The first get-together was called a Hard Times Party, and was held at the high school in January. This party proved to be the big Junior party of the year and afforded much enjoyment. The ring committee selected a class ring in January, which was put on dis- play at the Hard Times Party for the first time. The enthusiasm that the Jolly Juniors have shown for every class and school enterprise is an example of the individual leaders the class possesses. Members of the class have been outstanding in every phase of school life both academic and extra curricular. IIACIIJS l93l WILLIAM OSBURN WALTER BOONE RUTH MCBRIDE CHARLES KNIPPLE SDD H DMOIQ E CLASS I'I-IE SOPHOMORE CLASS entered senior high in September, 1930, and soon becoming acclimated to the new conditions, started on its high school career. The first thing that the class did was to elect a leader and they chose William Osburn as president. They also elected the other members of the execu- tive committee, Walter Boone, Vice-president: Ruth McBride, secretary: and Charles Knipple, treasurer. The sponsors of the class were Miss Marion Bread- heft and Miss Ernestine Metzner. Members of the class took part in all school activities. George Mills repre- sented his class on the gridiron and the hardwood. The entire C team was made up of Sophomores. Such organizations as the Concert Band, Hi-Y, Girl Reserves, Latin, Art, French, and Glee Clubs were enthusiastically supported by members of the class. The school orchestra is made up largely of Sophomore musicians. The class of '33 is assured profound success, if the Sophomore class of '3l continues its interest in the activities of Marion High School. During the school year the Sophomores sponsored two class activities that were most successful: a party and a picnic. The party was held in the high school cafeteria where a delightful meal was served by Miss Moe and her aides. The program, well planned by the president and members of his committees, was very interesting and entertaining. Individual members of the class displayed their talents in dances, piano solos, stunts, and the like. Bob Butler and his Arab Serenaders gave the class a half hour of good peppy music. The party was a complete success. At the end of the school term the class held the annual picnic which was thoroughly enjoyed by the whole class.

MARION HIGH SCHOOL has always been a leader in the journalistic activities of the state. However, journalism as a credited subject was not introduced here until 1925, Since the department of journalism has been opened, the school has entered and successfully brought back honors in the annual year- book and newspaper contests sponsored by the Indiana High School Press Asso- ciation. Every fall this organization, composed entirely of Indiana high school students, meets at Franklin College, Franklin, Indiana, for a three day conven- tion. At the convention this fall H9301 Richard E. Reynolds, who had been elected the previous year, acted as president. Eleven delegates represented The Survey and The Cactus at the convention. Speeches by nationally known journalists and educators comprised the major part of the program. Round-table discussions for individual instruction of the many phases of yearbook and newspaper work were also conducted. The Indiana High School Journalism Teachers and Advisors Association meets each year at the same time with the students. B. H. Penrod, director of publications, and Miss Elizabeth Hanes, journalism teacher, represented the school at this meeting. The M.H.S, students at the convention were Richard F. Reynolds, Charlotte Dawson, Robert Hardesty, Ralph Roessler, Allison Holt, Virginia Heavilin, LaDial Simmons, and Mary Eruchey. CACIIJS l93l TI-lli CACTIJS NN SEPTEMBER, soon after actual work had been started on the 1931 Cactus, the yearbook became known as the Silver Anniversary Cactus. Just twenty-live years ago the first Marion High School annual was published under the title The Cactus. Since that time great strides have been made in the journalistic activity of the school, and the yearbook of today stands far above the small pamphlet of yesteryear. For the first time in several years the editor of The Cactus was named in the spring, thus allowing the entire summer for planning the details of the book. The Cactus Board, as appointed by Principal Kendall, was Richard F. Reynolds, editor-in-chief, Charlotte Dawson, associate editor, Robert Hardesty, business managerg Miss Gladys Lewis, treasurerg and Miss Ernestine Metzner, and Miss Helen Wortman literary advisors.

THE SUIQVEY FORCEFUL factor in the life of the school during the past year has been The Survey, ofiicial Marion High School newspaper. The paper, a four- page, five-column sheet, is published weekly during the school year. It features local news, clever bit writing, editorials on school problems, and sport reviews, Four special issues, Christmas issue, sectional and regional tourney specials, and the April Pools' Day scandal sheet were published this year. The staff of the paper was headed the entire year by Ralph Roessler, editor-in-chief, with the supervision of Miss Elizabeth Hanes, journalism teacher. Allison Holt and Virginia Heavilin acted as associate editors the first semester. Several changes were made in the staif between semesters, the iinal period seeing an associate committee in place of the associate editors. The committee consisted of Winifred Johnson, Drussa Harrigan, Josephine Strands, and Janet Freel. Kenneth Kennedy and Harry Gable were appointed circulation and ad- vertising managers. Lucille Carmichael was named exchange editor: LaDial Simmons, humor editor: and Maxine Buckles, typist. Dennis Flynn was named art editor late in the second semester. Interest in journalism was on the increase this year and a large number of boys and girls contributed to the paper from time to time.

Cicero, and Virgil decided to organize a society wherein they might further their study of the pursuits and customs of their revered predecessors. So successful was their attempt, that the Latin Club has continued to Hourish through the succeeding years. Hence, three times a semester the timid students of military strategy, the fiery masters of impassioned speech, and a few courageous spirits who have ventured forth upon Aeneas' unchartered seas, convene that they may not only become more familiar with the long lost Rome, but that they may for a time lay aside their togas and participate in some of the games favored by the ancients. The members will long remember their terrifying trip through the underworld and the many interesting reports given on various phases of Roman life. During the past year John Logan and Verne Owen, as consuls, presided alternately at the meetings. The quaestors, Helen Pike and William Otis, served as secretary and treasurer respectively, and the four aediles, Dorothy Brunt, Lela Horner, Mary Carter, and Anna Payne provided for the social well-being of the club. Miss Gladys Neal and Mrs. Dorothy Fellers were sponsors. CACIIJS l03l Top Row---Graham, Meguiar, Leaman, McAdams, Drischel, Campbell, Hautem. Second Row-Reed, Callahan, Jones, Englehardt, F.

IZIQENCH CLUB E CERCLE FRANCAIS, known to the uninitiated as the French Club, un- der the competent leadership of Miss Elizabeth Brownlee, has completed a most successful and interesting year. The membership is composed of those stu- dents who realize the value of speaking a foreign language and appreciate the importance of French in the social and commercial world today. Since one of the primary purposes of the club is to learn to speak the language more fluently, the meetings are conducted entirely in French. The pro- grams consist of songs, games, and the study of the life and customs of French people. Short plays, also presented in French, have been enjoyed by the group. Miss Brownlee has been fortunate in securing the names of young French people with whom the club has been able to carry on an interesting correspond- ence, These letters have given the students the human contact that no other phase of their work has supplied. During the past year Miss Brownlee, Virginia Meguiar, Elizabeth Price, Mary Campbell, and Luellan Gowing have entertained the club members at their homes in regular monthly sessions. In past years meetings were held at the school, but this new plan has created an interest that has proved most popular. The officers who have directed the club are Virginia Meguiar, president, Mary Callahan, secretary, and Mary Culp, treasurer. IIACTIJS l93i Top Row-Hanes, Roessler, Sloan, Logan, Reynolds, Kennedy.

WIQITEIQS CLUI3 addition to the high school departmental club family known as the Writers Club, sponsored by Miss Eliza- and public speaking teacher. It was originally planned students, twelve girls and twelve boys, should be ad- mitted to membership. Selected students from the journalism class, and additional students with a high scholastic standing in English, or others on recom- mendation of one teacher, are admitted to the club un- til the quota is reached. The club was organized at the request of journal- ism students, who wished to continue their journalistic work and do more creative writing-those desirous of further courting the fun and experience of writing for print. Realizing the need of some recognition of high scholastic attainment and interest in journalism and as a reward of merit for those students, who have ability in writing, the Writers Club has requested that a chapter of Quill and Scroll, an international high school journalistic fraternity be opened in Marion High School. Ralph Roessler, Jr., editor-in-chief of The Survey for the school yiear 1930-31 won high honors in the National Scholastic Awards Contest for an editorial entered in the literary division. His editorial Day of Days was named one of the best three in Indiana and was entered in the final national judging.

Statistics show that approxi- mately 50,000 are served yearly here. Not only has the cafeteria prepared noonday lunches for students, but it has served dinners for various clubs and organizations. All the work of serving is performed by high school students, who manage the soup, sandwich counter and the steam table and also assist in the kitchen. Two of the students, Kenneth liams and Vir- ginia Harris, have worked in this capacity for four years, and Edith Small, Elizabeth Lake, Prank Webb, and Clyde Spence have served for three. Others assist- ing one or more years are Kenneth Wolf, Della Russell, Alice Bradford, and Helen Clark. Several other students have also served at various times. Credit for the administration of this department is due to Miss Ethel Moe, who also directs the two junior high cafeterias. Miss Moe, a graduate of Ohio Wesleyan University with advanced work in Winona Chicago, and American School of Home Economics, is her work.

FADM CLUB HE freshmen enrollment in vocational agriculture this year was the greatest in ten years of farm education in Marion High School. Cf the total of forty students 'enrolled in the two half-day classes in September, twenty-two were freshmen, The Farm Club met as a class and carried on without an election of oflicers. Four seniors, Herman Blinn, Modlyth Crow, Vaughn Neff, and Harold Moler, will complete their four years of agriculture under the able direction of Otis Crane, teacher, this year, Blinn is probably the most outstanding student in the department. He was a mem- ber of the dairy judging team that took part in the state . meet at Purdue University. He has shown the great- est skill in the farm shop work and has the best record in his farm project work. The classes entered the Grant County Corn Show held at Van Buren early in the fall and won first place with their vocational exhibit. The last week in April HERMAN BUNN the twelfth annual egg show was held in the class rooms in the high school building. The year's work was divided between the plant and animal life of the farm. Some time was spent in actual experimenting on the school farm West Oli-lX12lcCulloch Junior High School. Special stress was given to the raising of c ic ens.

ADT CLUB O win converts to a better appreciation of the truly beautiful and to serve the school and community in all artistic needs has been the slogan for the Art Club. This slogan was carried out to the extent that a newly awakened art interest has been widespread in Marion. Starting with an organization meeting early in the Fall, the club, under the direction - of Nliss Grace Cleveland, enjoyed one of the most suc- cessful years since the club was organized. Carolyn Adams was elected president: Mary Newton, vice-presi- dent: Rowena VanVoorhis, secretary: and Chester Bauseman, treasurer. A better understanding of art was the outstanding purpose of each meeting through the year, ln bringing out various phases of art, a 'AShadowgraph guest party and a lVlediterranean Cruise were held. The activities committee of the club has had charge of the Hoosier Art Exhibit at the Municipal Art Galleries once each month. Jacquelyn Jones, senior and a member of the club, won the highest honors possible this year in the sculp- ture division of the National Scholastic Awards Contest held at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Jacquelyn's creation, a life size female bust, was judged Hrst in a contest in which 40,000 boys and girls from all over the United States were entered.

At this banquet awards were given to girls who had been especially active in promoting in Marion High School the true Girl Reserve ideals. The oflicers of 1930-31 honored the new oilicers-elect by presenting them with their pins. CACTIJS 1931 Top Row-Foland, advisor, Hardesty, Roessler, B.

MASK AND MALLET CLUB THE MASK and MALLET CLUB, organized last year by nine students with the purpose of promoting dramatic activities in the high school, has grown in 1931 until it has a membership well over one hundred. It is now the largest organization in the school. Dale Culley, senior, is the only charter member still active in the club. V. A. Smith and Miss Gladys Lewis are the sponsors. At the final meeting last year held at Matter Park, Richard F. Reynolds was elected president for the l93O-31 school year. The other three officers were elected at the Hrst reunion this fall. William Rhorer was named vice-president, Charlotte Dawson, secretary, and Mary Callahan, treasurer. Membership into the Mask and Mallet Club is attained by working on a dramatic problem connected with some phase of play production. An initiation has been prepared that explains in detail the four-fold purpose of the club. The principal activities of the year included work with the English Vlll classes in various stage productions and assistance in a ticket selling campaign for the operetta. The social welfare of the student members was not overlooked. Several parties during the school year held the interest of the less active members, At every meeting it was the plan to present one one-act play for the approval of the organization.

CACIIJS I 9 3 I , f CDNCEIQT HE Marion High School Concert Band, under the direction of Colos- ton R. Tuttle, has spent a most inter- esting and busy year. This year the band had an enrollment of about eighty members, the largest in the history of the concert band. According to custom the band sponsored a series of three public con- certs, the proceeds of which Went into the general band fund to defray expenses of contests and uniforms. They also gave a concert at the Marion National Sanitorium for the soldiers and oiiicials at the home. The band featured in the Washington grade school anniversary program, and assisted in various other civic and school programs throughout the year. ln addition to this the band was an added attraction at all home football and basketball games. The band won the state champion- ship in class A competition again this year. The win gave the school per- manent position of the grand trophy presented to the high school Winning the championship three times. The band entered the National Contest at Tulsa, Okla., May Zl, 22, 23. Something new in the organization of the band this year Was the forma- tion of ensemble groups. The French CONTEST BOUND BAND horn quartet, cornet sextet, saxophone sextet, woodwind quintet, and clarinet quartet entered the contests this Spring. The band was fortunate in having Bohumir Kryl, internationally famous band director, with them twice this year, He directed them through several numbers and offered many suggestions for improvement both for the band as a whole and the individual members. Lendall Seacat, senior, had the good fortune to secure a position as sousa- phone player in Kryl's band. He plans to start on a tour with the band next Fall. Several other members of the band were praised by Mr. Kryl during his two short stays here. The Marion band was started in 1924 under the direction of Mr. Tuttle with nineteen students. Today band instruction is given daily in both the junior highs and in the high school. The most recent development in music- al education in Marion has been the band instruction given to the grade school students in the grade school buildings. Mr. Tuttle has been assisted for the past three years by James R. Elliot, graduate of Marion High School in l925. Although students are urged to take private lessons, many who have played for two or three years have nev- er had a private lesson.

GIRLS' GLEE CLUB 66 F music be the food of love, sing on, with due apologies to Shakespeare, might very appropriately be adopted as the motto of the Girls' Glee Club. The organization, open to all girls, is composed of those students who love music for its own sake and derive a real pleasure from singing. The group meets each day as a class. Under the direction of Miss Louise Craft the girls have practiced a variety of musical compositions. Special emphasis has been laid on tone nad pitch. Devilla Hollenback served as accompanist the first semester and Jeanette Erlewine the second. Throughout the year the Glee Club has presented several interesting as- sembly programs including the traditional Thanksgiving Musical and a group of carols sung just before the Christmas vacation. They made a number of appearances during the spring term also. In the course of education week, the Boys' and Girls' Glee Clubs combined to present a program for the evening's entertainment at the high school. The girls also sang for the Farmer's Institute, ln addition, much time was devoted to the operetta, Ichabod Crane. The Girls' Trio composed of Mary Curfman, Drussa Harrigan, and Helen Pike was another popular attraction of the Girls' Glee Club.

BUYS' GLEE CLUI3 S the companion organization to the Girls' Glee Club, the masculine song- sters, organized as the Boys' Glee Club, have sung their Way into lasting popularity with the student body through their entertaining programs during the school year. They have a lively membership of twenty-seven boys. In or- ganization they are similar to the Girls' Glee Club in as much as they meet as a class daily under the direction of Miss Louise Craft. Mary Curfman, senior, has been the accompanist during the year. A trio composed of James Hall, Dane Bauserman, and Homer Hays was presented at various times throughout the year as a special feature of the Glee Club. The trio appeared together With the Girls' Trio of the Girls' Glee Club. The class Work, under the direction of Miss Craft, consisted of tone im- provement, sight singing, knowledge of the great composers, general instruction in group singing, and several other interesting assignments. The two glee clubs presented on the ninth and tenth of December a two- act operetta, 'ilchabod Crane. Several leads were taken by members of the Boys' Glee Club, and a large number took part in the chorus Work. Dane Baus- erman and Ned Hardy Were outstanding in this presentation. At various times during the year the glee club sang over radio station, WJAK. They were presented as a feature of a pep session program over the station during basketball season. CACTIJS IDS!

UIQCI-IESTDA HE interest and capability of the members of the Marion High School Orchestra has aided Lloyd DaCosta Jones, director, in developing one of the most worthy organizations in the school. The orchestra is composed of members of the stringed instrument classes, conducted by Mr. Jones at Martin Boots Junior High School and at Marion Senior High School, together with twelve or fifteen musicians from the M. H. S. Band. These young musicians contributed greatly to the success of the comic oper- etta, Hlchabod Crane, with their interpretations of the musical score. They presented several exceptionally good programs before the student body. The orchestra performed excellently at the Spencer Hotel for the twenty- first anniversary banquet of the Boy Scouts and for the Rotary Club evening party given for the directors and ofhcers of U. S. Radio and Television Corpora- tion. The Marion High School string quintette, composed entirely of girls, was well received in a program given before the Mens' Bible Class of the First Chris- tian Church. A trio, comprised of Dorothy Winchel, violinistg Dorothy Lytle, pian- ist: and Joseph Davis, cellist presented many Varied programs before civic clubs and special community organizations.

BUYS' AND GIIQLS' TIQIUS NSTEAD of quartets or outstanding soloists the vocal music department this year featured a boys' trio and a girls' trio. The two groups, under the direc- tion of Miss Louise Craft, music instructor, were presented in several programs at the high school and at civic functions. They met with the heartiest approval in every instance. National Education Week marked the first appearance of the girls' trio, when they sang in a special program at the high school. They were heard by. the student body again in a pre-Christmas program. They also sang in special programs at Girl Reserve meetings and broadcast over radio station, WJAK. The girls' trio is composed of Helen Pike, iirst sopranog Mary Curfman, second soprano, and Drussa Harrigan, alto. After appearing in various community programs and high school enter- tainments, the boys' trio became one of the most popular entertainment features of the school. They were presented several times during the year with Bob But- ler and his Arab Serenaders. They sang for the banquet meetings of the Com- munity Chest Drive and also over radio station, WJAK. The personnel of the boys' trio is Homer Hays, first tenor: Dane Bauser- man, second tenor: and James Hall, baritone, The trio loses only one member by graduation, Homer Hays.

Avery. By the competent instruction f Miss Louise Craft, music directorg Mr. Lloyd DaCosta Jones, orchestra di ectorg V. A. Smith, dramatic directorg and Miss Ernestine Metzner, physical training director, the production was made possible. kj Ichabod Crane CNed Hardyj, the vain school-master of Sleepy Hollow, found favor as a prospective son-in-law of Mynheer Van Tassel Ctlames McIn- tyreb. However, Mynheer's daughter, Katrina fMary Louise Striebj, loves Brom Bones CDane Bausermanj, a dashing young gallant of the village. Aunt Hilda CMary Jo Dayj a rich widow from New York, visits Sleepy Hollow and is enchanted with Ichabod's artificial airs. Hendrik, Katrina's brother Crloseph Marshallj , and Wilhelmina, her friend CRowena Van Voorhisj, are in love and hope to persuade the elders to sanction their union. Brom, a favorite with the school children, sings them the legend of the Headless Horseman , the supposed ghost of the Hessian soldier who lost his head in battle and perpetually haunts the neighborhood. Mynheer and his wife invite Ichabod to the merrymaking at their home in the hopes of promoting an alliance with the lovely Katrina. After arriving at the party, Ichabod is soon frightened away by the Head- less Horseman. Brom returns as the successful suitor for Katrina's hand while Aunt Hilda leads back the crest-fallen Ichabod, who is reconciled to marriage with her after learning that she spreads a bountiful table. The parts, Vrou Van Tassel, wife of Mynheer Uosephine Wileyj and that of the servant, David fRobert Rowanj add variety to the story. The chorus work was carried out by the boys' and girls' glee clubs. Karl Culp was Eielstage manager assisted by Carmon Paschal, Marvin Drukemiller and Forrest ic ards. CACIIJS ATHLETICS umm' MELVIN H. TAUBE AUSTIN SMITH RONALD JACOBSON CUACHING STAFF MELVIN H. TAUBE, Marion High School football and basketball coach and director of athletics, has completed his third year as mentor of the Giant athletic teams. As one of Purdue University's most distinguished athletes, he came to Marion to face a badly shaken athletic situation. That he took hold of the run-down condition after a disastrous first year in basketball is a striking example of the perseverance and determination which characterize lVlel. His years in Marion have certainly not been without hardships. Taube not only saved M.H.S. athletics, but he has put them back on a plane which can rightfully be considered as high as any in Indiana. As head track and assistant basketball and football coach, Austin Smith has proved an invaluable aid to coach Taube, He has guided the basketball sec- ond team for the past three years, and in addition has made quite a name for himself and Marion with his track teams in Indiana track and field circles. Ronald Jacobson was named to coach the second C team in high school history, and he has main- tained the high standard which he established with his first third team four years ago. He also assists with the football squad. JAMES PEYTON James Peyton, junior, has been manager for the basketball, football and track teams for the past year. He has been reward- ed for his splendid work by receiving a manager's sweater in each of the three sports. IIACTIJS l93l MEMORIAL FIELD AT NIGHT SEASON'S IQ EVI EW A NEW era was started in athletics at Marion High School this fall when night football was inaugurated. Huge floodlights were erected on Memorial Field early in September, and the lights were used for the first time in the Green- Zstle game September 19. All Marion home games were played at night, the Giants winning three and losing two of these nocturnal contests. The football season as a whole was more of a success than a single glance at the records would indicate. For the first time since 1926 Marion had a basketball team in the state finals at Indianapolis this year. Although they lost their first game, the Giants found reward enough in the fact that they, and not Kokomo, represented this district. Including sectional, regional, state finals, and Big Four Tournament games, the locals won 16 and lost 12 games this year. In the regular schedule they split even in twenty games. Under the direction of Walter Tucker, a golf team was organized in the spring, which scheduled matches with golf teams from nearby high schools. The track team as usual gave a good account of itself in every meet in which it participated. The track season started with an indoor meet late in March, and continued in full swing until the state outdoor track meet the middle of May.

Ovid Casey defensive end and offensive half-back and the only four letter man on the squad, was given honorable mention on the all-state high school eleven. With but two weeks of practice to their credit, the Giants journeyed to Peru to open the season against the Tigers. Their lack of practice was costly, for they returned home beaten by an inferior Peru team, 20 to 7. Casey's 90 yard run was responsible for Marion's only touchdown. 4 In their debut under the floodlights the following week, the locals crushed a light but hard lighting Greencastle eleven, 19 to 0. This game was more or less a warm-up tilt for Kokomo the following week. A fumble on what was meant to be a fourth down kick proved the break in the Wildcat contest, and, after 48 minutes of intensely interesting football, the Giant's friends from the banks of Wildcat Creek pulled out of town with a hard earned 20 to 13 victory. The Giants almost reached the 500 mark at Elwood the next week. A first half scoring orgy that put the locals 12 points ahead was overcome by the bone-crushing tin-platers, who, in addition to scoring the necessary touchdowns, made the Giants components of the Association for Abolishment of the Point After Touchdown by scoring the two all-important points, to make the final score read l4 to l2.

The Muncie Bearcats were met and vanquished in their own lair by the golden tide from M.H.S. In this game the work of Harlan, who proved to be quite a broken field runner, was encouraging to Giant back- ers. The final score was l3 to 7. Returning to Memorial Field, the Giants were met and conquered by a heavier and more experienced Logansport team, 38 to l3. Logansport later be- came runner-up for the state championship. Garrett was the next visitor to be entertained by the purple and gold squad. After being almost completely demoralized by having the initial kick-off run back for a touchdown, the Giants got together and pulled out a 25 to 14 vic- tory. Marion gained the much coveted .500 rating the next week, Morton of Richmond being the victim. This was a hard, close battle throughout, well worth braving the uncomfortably cool nocturnal air to see. The final score was 7 to 0, but a beautiful 45 yard touchdown, run by Ovid Casey, was called back because of a Marion off-side. At Wabash, the grand finale of the season, something went wrong, and for the only time during the season, the Giants' attack failed to get going. As a result, the pointed Hillclimbers crushed the Giants 16 to 0 for the first time in five long years. CAIITIJS l93l MEYER! 'Il-Ili. 1.

The season prior to tournament time was a fifty-fifty break. The team Won eleven and lost eleven games. ln the early sea- son, games were lost by one, tvvo, and three points with unbelievable regularity. Time and time again the timer's gun would stop a last minute Marion rally just short of a tie score. The team won state-Wide reputation for the fine style of 1 ball they played near the end of the season. A slow breaking of- fense that scored con- sistently and a defense that held some of the best teams in Indiana to low scores characterized the purple and gold squad. lncluded in their list of victims are Muncie, p r e s e n t champions, Evansville, Peru, Wa- bash, Huntington, and 1 Hartford City, SUTTON HUTCHESON ACIUS l03l ALLEMAN MEYER MILLS At the close of the season, eleven meng Morrow, Casey, Reed, Hutcheson, Mills, Sutton, Meyer, Miller, Alleman, Hubler, and Perkins were awarded sweaters. Miller did not take part in the tournament because of an injury re- ceived late in the regular season. Of these men, Mills, Miller, Alleman, and Perkins will be back next year. Mills and Perkins are only Sophomores. With the reorganization of a third team this year and the wonderful show- ing made by the second L, team it is not at all out l of place to predict a great future for the Purple and Gold team. The Giants next year will be under the guid- ance of a new coach.

Both of these contests were won with ease, but Delphi, the next foe, proved to be much stronger than anticipated, and the Giants lost their first important game by a 22 to 21 score. With Delphi disposed of, the locals invaded the camp of the Anderson Indians determined to win. They had good intentions, but Anderson had enough last minute punch to steal the game, 25 to 22. Two defeats by such heart-breaking margins were enough to shake the morale of any team, but the Giants kept up the fight. A last quarter comeback enabled them to crush Hartford City at Hartford, 24 to 17. Shortridge's un- defeated Blue Devils set the locals back, 23 to 18, and the following night at Fort Wayne the South Side Archers won a 27 to 26 victory. Again only a one- point margin. In the only overtime of the regular season, the Central High School Bears were sent back to Evansville on the short end of a 31 to 28 count. During Christmas vacation the Giants lost to Kokomo, 27 to 23, and crushed Wabash 34 to 18. Anderson repeated its early season triumph more decisively than before. The score this time was 26 to 17. Kokomo took ad- vantage of this mid-season slump and won an easy 33 to 20 victory. At Huntington the Giants took a new lease on life and won an unexpected 26 to 25 victory. SwayZee's Speed Kings, county champions, then fell by the wayside, and the next day the locals added one game to both the victory and de- feat sides of the ledger in the Second Annual Big Four Tournament. Hartford City was the victim in the afternoon, 26 to 19, but Newcastle proved too big a dose and the Giants lost 23 to 17. Peru was vanquished 32 to 24, and Muncie, state champions, fell before a determined band of Giants 26 to 24. Fairmount was easily outclassed 33 to ll, but Muncie came back in her second game and defeated the Giants 26 to 23. The next night a let-down proved fatal, and Wabash was able to gain her first victory in basketball history over Marion. The score was 21 to 20. Hunting- ton closed the regular season with a 23 to 19 victory over an over confident Mar- ion five. Jonesboro, Gas City, and Sweetser were set back in the sectional tourna- ment. Hartford City, after a thrilling overtime battle, lost to a state bound Giant team 23 to 21. Wabash, conqueror of Kokomo, was easily subdued in the regional Hnals. With the hopes of every basketball fan in this district resting on their shoulders, the Giants advanced on Indianapolis determined to receive the lost prestige of Marion's Giants in basketball. With more than 400 home fans looking on, and thousands listening in on the radio, the scarlet-clad Giants took the floor against Elkhart's Blue Blazers at 4:00 p.m. Friday. This time the locals waited too long to start their characteristic fourth period comeback, and Elkhart wrote flnis to the Marion season to the tune of 26 to 22.

SEED N ID TEAM D LAYING a schedule which included the reserve squad of every school on the varsity schedule, the local B team this year compiled a list of Wins that is second to none in school history. Until the Wabash game on February 21, they boasted of a very unique re- cord-they had not lost a home game, nor had they Won an out-of-town game. Their victory over the Hillclimbers' second team was their only out-of-town triumph of the l930-31 seasonz Among their outstanding accomplishments were a 30 to 8 victory over the Kokomo Kitties, a thrilling 15 point comeback to conquer ther Anderson pa- pooses, and the Winning of the second team division of the Big Four Tourney held here in January. To win the tournament, it was necessary to eliminate Hartford City and Anderson-a huge task which was handled in fine style. The Little Giants proved to be a real i'feeder for the Varsity squad. During the course of the season three men, Reed, Sutton, and Perkins were gradu- ated to the first team. Johnson, a promising sophomore center, also appeared in a first team uniform in some of the games. The boys who show promise for future years include Dewey Johnson. Wilson Showalter, William Leas, Bruce Weaver, John Rhorer, Wallace Bonta, Max Long, Willard Bish, Frank Diodore, Andrew Wyckoff, and James Mooney. With no seniors on the team at the close of school, a bright future looms for M.H.S. CACTIJS 1031 Top Row-Coach Jacobson, Osburn, Burke, DeWolf, Cline, Venters.

Ronald Jacobson, who coached the third team three years ago and who has been assisting in football and basketball, was named coach. A schedule was arranged which, it was hoped, would not be too dillicult for freshmen and sophomores to play, yet would give the team members experience, and would be of great value to them in the near future. Their schedule included games with the Amboy second team, the Jonesboro sec- ond team, the Lincolnville second team, and reserve squads of other small schools in this section of the state, The third team played a preliminary for every home game of the varsity squad. It was almost certain that the evening would be started off right, for winning ball games certainly became a habit with these boys. They were excep- tionally well coached. William Leas, Who started the season as floor guard, was moved up to the second team in mid-season where he performed in creditable style. Many of these boys Will no doubt be seen in second team uniforms next season and it would not be too surprising if one or two of them would make the varsity squad. The team Well proved its worth as a l'feeder organization, and probably paved the Way for other C teams in the future. IIACIIJS l93l Top Row+B. H. Penrod, manager: Miller, Sanders, Usher.

A plan was used whereby each group of boys adopted the name of some university as the name of their basketball team, With this new beginning the organization fast developed into the best league ever held. The teams as a whole were more evenly matched, forfeited games were fewer, and interest in general was greater. The league as a whole was divided into two groups, or leagues: League I and League II. The season's schedule was played twice, and the two winners met in a series in March for the league championship. The four championship teams that played in the semi-finals were Wash- ington State, Michigan, Purdue and the Army. ln the inter-league games, be- tween I and ll, the Army won the right to play Purdue in the finals. The Coliseum was reserved for the Hnal game and Austin Smith, assistant basketball and head track coach, acted as referee. The Army team, the defending champion, got off with a bad start in this game, and could never quite overcome the fast-stepping Purdue five. The timer's gun found B, H. Penrod's Purdue basketeers on the long end of a 17 to 14 score, while the Army, the Hi-Y Cardinals of past years, had to be content with runner-up honors. Medals were presented to members of the winning team. CACTIJS l03l Left to Right-Carey, Weaver, Esler, Ayers, Baugher, Hewitt, Jolliff. BID LS' BASKETBALL DURING the first semester of the school year 1930-31, the girls' gym classes concentrated their efforts on the art of playing basketball. This semester's activities terminated with a tournament held among teams selected from the three gym classes. Two teams were chosen from each class. The personnel of the teams enter- ing the tournament was as follows: Captain Betty Wilson, Clara Clouser, Edna McCan, Lois Jean Watson, Mary Ellen Winslow, Charline Van Blaricon, Iva Hawkins, and Harriett Daniels: Captain Betty Ann Jones, Wilma McPherson, Ada Pence, Ethrel Fox, Margaret Booth, Barbara Brinker, Mary Ruth Stone, and Lucille Kelley: Captain Mary Helen Wheeler, Sara Elizabeth Johnson, Lucile Townsend, Cmaythel Shoecraft, Betty Alter, Ruby Bish, Vivian Brad- ford, and Fern Dial: Captain Verneta Stanley, Leo-ta Cole, Florence Bundy, Ethel Cvunyon, Ada Hedrick, and Marguerite Ford: Captain Kathryn Baugher, ElizabetlTWeaver, Virginia Jolliff, Margarette Ayres, Dorthea Carey, Epoleta Collyer, Catherine Esler, and Lillian Hewitt: Captain Lois Gormley, Mary Helene Flanagan, June Usher, Jean Matthews, Mary Kimes, Lorraine Lindahl, Marcella Merriman, and Maxine Rinehart. The championship game was played January 26 when Kathryn Baugher's team won an easy victory from Betty Ann Jones's team with a 22 to 8 score. The classes played volley ball and baseball during the second semester. Although the girls enjoyed contests in both of these sports their enthusiasm was greater when playing basketball. IIACIIJS l93l TIQACK At track we always have our Smitty He's not so tall, but awfully gritty. TIQACIY T the close of the basketball season, Coach Austin Smith issued the general call for track team candidates. Long before the basketk all season had passed into history a group of boys worked daily on the track in Memorial Coliseumg running, high jumping, broad jumping, pole vaulting, and putting the shot were practiced. This group worked occasionally with the coach who was assist- ing Coach Melvin Taube with basketball. The boys Q spent their time chiefly in improving style, building up reserve energy, and getting in condition in general. ' The general call changed things. Work was begun in earnest. Coach Smith was present at every practice session instructing the boys. An indoor track meet was scheduled for Saturday, March 28, at Memorial Coli- seum in which Marion, Alexandria, Kokomo, and Huntington were entered. The Giants nosed out their old rival, Kokcmo, and won nrst honors in this meet. The following Saturday the locals won sixth place in the first annual State Indoor Track Meet at Bloom- ington. In this meet the Marion relay team set a new state record, beating again their closest rival, the Kokomo Wildcats, by more than two seconds. Froebel of Gary won the meet, but the Giants, with ten points to their credit, made a record for themselves far better than their most ardent backers hoped for. RALPH SMITH After these indoor meets, the Giants took to the out-of-doors, and the track season was begun in earnest. With such veterans to build on as Ralph Smith, Eldon Pierce, Charles Alleman, Denver Usher, Paul Meyer, and Gerald Vogel, Coach Smith produced probably the best balanced track team in local history. No especially outstanding stars were included among the starters, but there were good men, who were sure point-getters in every event. This accounts for the fact that in dual and triangular meets the Giants were consistent win- ners, but in large meets, while showing to good advantage, they lacked the in- dividual talent to win iirsts or seconds. Paul Meyer, veteran high jumper, flirted with the county record all year in this event, and it took a real jump-er to beat him the few times in the season that he failed to finish first. Meyer broke the local indoor record in the iirst meet of the year. The last part of April and most of May was spent preparing for sectional, district, and state out-door meets. Following an established tradition, the locals entered the Kokomo relays, which is really a championship track meet, and finished well up in the list of winners. The county meet, in which all the county schools who have dreams of great track teams are entered, was again held at Memorial Field, one of the best tracks in the state.

M ,, s-1.8.,, To Ralph Smith goes the honor of consistently collecting the most points of any one man on the team. This was his third year as a member of the squad, and his third year as a letterman. He joined the tracksters three years ago as a dash mamt the time Frank Stickann was burning the cinders. He gave Stickann a real race every time they met on the track that first year, and practically assured Marion a second in the hundred yard dash before the meets ever started. Smith was developed into a 220-yard dash runner this first year, and he also ran on a relay team. During his junior year he became Marion's leading dash man and point-getter, and also started bending some of his efforts toward the improve- ment of his broad jumping. Smith's efforts in this direction were rewarded this year when he won many firsts as a broad jumper. He consistently made leaps of over twenty feet, a goc-d jump on any track team. So, Ralph Smith completed his track career as a relay runner, l00 and 220 yard dash man, and broad jumper. In the County Track Meet on April 19, Gerald Vogel, Marion miler, broke the county record for the mile run, running this race in the fast time of 4 minutes and 48 seconds. This is the first time in several years that Marion High School has had a man who could run the mile in less than five minutes. Al- though Smith of Marion and Barker of Svvayzee were expected to break the broad jump and pole vault record respectively, the inclimate weather kept the desired distance out of reach, IIACTIJS 103i l Top Row-Humes, Tucker, Gable.

A large number of boys answered the call and practiced daily on the temporary greens of the J.A.C. course, preparing for a season's schedule which included some of the best teams in central Indiana. The city champion, Don Humes, and Earl Liepse were the only members of last year's team still eligible for interscholastic competition, but some promis- ing material was unearthed early in the season that should insure a successful golf year at Marion. Coach Tucker, shop instructor, has been in charge of the golf teams here since the sport made its debut several years ago. The golf teams of past years have hung up enviable records, and the six boys delegated to carry the Purple and Gold of Marion High School over fairway and green this year should be no exception to this rule. The Giants of the Fairway played both at home and out of town. The Country Club Golf Course is their home lair and practice course. Out of town games were played, in most cases, on the community courses of the towns visited. The schedule this year included matches with South Side of Fort Wayne, Central of Fort Wayne, Shortridge of Indianapolis, and several other central Indiana schools. Members of the team were given membership cards to the Meshingomesia Country Club Course. As all members of the team are under- classmen, next year's team should be quite strong.

The faculty sponsor is the director of athletics, Melvin H. Taube and the oliicers are all alumni of Marion High School. The club is more or less a tradition, a goal for every athlete. Membership automatic. The above picture includes those boys who have been awarded football and basketball sweaters this year. Of the group, Sutton, Pierce, Smith, Hubler, Mor- row Usher, Hutcheson, Hallahan, Sanders, Hummel, Meyer, J. Reed, and Casey have completed their athletic careers in Marion High School. Members of the basketball team this year were awarded suede jackets because of their outstanding achievement in reaching the state finals. The foot- ball team members were awarded the usual lightweight wool coat sweaters. Track sweaters were awarded in June. Ovid Casey is the only four letter man in a single sport in school. He has been awarded four letters in football, and in addition has received three in basket- ball. CACTIJS 1031 SMITIY SPRINGS MIK. l1lJSS 63 +Q? W X m lb: FEATURES Q-2 , Kg, - 7 I JA we , K, 1, .

A manger was his only bed- No pillow on which to lay his head- This baby was destined to be Man's promise of eternity. This little child was to be the light To make the kingdom of heaven bright: His precious life was given to win God's children from a life of sin.
