From the moon, our nearest celestial neigh- bor, came a host ol' ballet dancers with Maureen Lahey as Moon Goddess. jupiter was represented by a corps ol' twirlers performing to Syncopated Clock , and a troupe of tap dancers who tapped to By the Light ol the Silvery Moon. The Advanced Chorus gave its rendition of Swinging on a Star. The planet Mars made its entrance with the Marsian lfVarriors Drill to the background music of Men Fl'0I'll Mars. Reflected in a green light, skaters represented Uranus. On the lighter side, john Hitesman, as Professor Rowland Arrington, gave his interpretation ol' an astronomical lecture from Pluto.

Nl ISS GLADYS NEAL 'To increase in stature, in wisdom, and in favor with God and man' is still the fourfold develop- ment that is the real goal of education,' so believes the Dean ol Girls, Miss Gladys Neal. She feels that all the varied activities of a modern school should have such development for their purpose. But no matter how crowded her calendar, Miss Neal always has time to take an interest in students' problems whether they be scholastic, financial or a little on the personal side. It was through the efforts of our Dean of Girls that the Student Council was launched in Marion High School, and she now sponsors that organ- ization as well as the Service Group of the Y-Teens. Miss Neal received her A.B. from Earlham Col- lege and her M.A. from Columbia University. Additional work was done at the Universities of Chicago and Michigan. 22 the ADMINISTR TIO DEAN IB.

Modlin STUDE T CCUNCIL days are active The Student Council, as written in the con- stitution, consists ol' one representative front each home room, three seniors, two juniors, and one sophomore elected at-large from their respective classes. Those elected at-large compose the Senate. It is a member of the Indiana Association ol' Student Councils and the National organization. Its chief purpose is to serve as a legislative body to provide a medium to further the co- operation of the students, teachers, and the administration. Besides its varied legislative action, the Student Council sponsored the annual Cour- tesy Month, Operation Vittles, sale of the Cactus Frolic tickets, the annual Christmas Tree, and the election of cheerleaders. The Council also bought a new piano for the auditorium, raising its funds from the profits of the Council store, by sponsoring a talent show, and from a part ol' the Easter Parade profits. It gave money to the convo- cation fund from the store. HO OR SOCIETY The Honor Society, sponsored by Miss Dorothy Case, amended the constitution and assisted in the installation of new members. Members, elected by their respective classes, were chosen on the basis of character, scholar- ship, leadership, and service. Scholarship re- quirements were a high school average of 8811 and no person could have any D or F average on his card and be eligible for membership. The senior class is represented by IOCZ1 of its enrollment and the junior class has 5? of its enrollment. The Honor Society officers were Richard Brunt, president, Zelda Rife, vice-president: Mary Lee Comer, secretary: and Ruth Davis, U'CilSlll'Cl'. RITER'S CLUB The pen is a mighty sword. Many students interested in any form ol' writing wrote short stories, poems, and essays for the x'Vl'llCl S Club. These works oi art were seen in the Survey a few times and many more were pre- sented at club meetings of the group. In- terest in other countries was aroused when students corresponded with pen pals. Nliss Mildred Aveline was club sponsor. Club officers were: Bob Truex, president: Ruth Davis, vice-president: Jade McMillan, secretary, and Dollie Bridgewater, treasurer. l.f'11jwr fSeniorsJ Seated-R. Davis, D. Brunt, Z. Rife. M. Comer.

SURVEY The Survey, Marion Senior High School's newspaper, was sponsored by Mrs. Jennie Weaver this year. Editor, Jim lX-'leredith, and business manager, Dorothy Tubbs, were a main part of the stall? who put out the weekly editions of one of the best papers in any Grant County school. It was the objective of the staff to edit the best school paper possible and at the same time give the students a paper they would enjoy reading.

Y-TEENS The Y-Teens, which is the part of the YYVCA for high school girls, has a purpose to build a fellow- ship of women and girls devoted to the task of real- izing in our common life those ideas of personal and social living to which we are committed by our Faith as Christians. In this endeavor they sought to understand Jesus and to share His love for all people and to grow in the knowledge and love of God. Y-Teens' convocations began on September 25, when the membership drive was launched. Some ot the most important of their many convocations were the recognition service, a Christmas program, courtesy convocation, and an Easter program. SCOOPS fUpper Riglztj Ron' One - R. NVebb, Z.

This year Dollie Bridgewater was president, Takis Michos and Sue Henry were vice- presidentsg Charlotte Haven was secretary, and Alice Gardner and Gene Pearson were treasurers. Established several years ago to reward par- ticipants in dramatics, Mahidra does not have a large membership. Prospective members are limited to those who have worked in plays either on the cast or on the crews, preferably in both. Members are chosen according to their interest in dramatics and the time spent pursuing this interest. On April 10, l95l, Mahidra became ollicially afliliatetl with The National Thespian Society. As Troupe ll25, it composes an inner circle of the more experienced club members who have been able to meet the strict requirements set forth in the national constitution. Although the troupe elects its own ollicers, it does not make a new dramatics club but merely serves as an advisory group.

Driftneyer, Mr. BOO TER CLUB From September until April, it is a waste ol time to plan a meeting in the auditorium on X'Vednesdays at 3:35 I'.M.3 because the Booster Club has it sched- uled lar in advance. At that time, the club tran- sacts all oi' its business and practices for athletic events. The club and cheerleaders work together in planning yells. For the first time twenty-two boys were added to the club, making a total ol' I54 members, the largest group yet. The club in its present form was organ- ized in 1946 by the Student Council, under the direction ol Robert McCafferty. Its chief purpose is to promote an organized yelling section plus to encourage good sportsmanship, win or lose. The club is governed by a board of directors consisting ol' three seniors, two juniors, and two sophomores. The senior receiving the largest num- ber of votes in the election becomes the president or chairman of the board. Board members lor this year are Madeline Branson, presidentg Margie Long, Donna Fisher, jane Drifmeyer, Nila Fox, Aneysa Long, and Farrolyn Harmon. Nile Fox will be next year's president. Meetings usually begin the middle of September with organization, outfitting, and preliminary practice. The club provides a core for yelling at football games, sits in a group at basketball games, provides the A team trophy at the Marion Invi- tational Relays, and decorates and serves at athletic banquets.

MARION I3 - KOKONIO I3 In their first Conference encounter, the Giants almost upset the rival Kats from nearby Kokomo in an attempt to end the 2-year tie streak, but the Kats surged back in the last 5 minutes to tie the score before the hnal gun sounded. MARION 0 - LOGANSPORT 25 The Giants tasted bitter defeat when they fell before the Logan-Berries in their second Conference game of the season. However, the boys weren't too discouraged for they rallied to win their very next game, MARION 3-I - AUBURN 26 Auburn, who had previously been nn- defeated before they ventured to Marion, led the Giants for a short timeg but they just couldn't maintain the lead.

MARION 31 - NENV CASTLE 21 The Giants touched up their third victory of the season by eliminating the Trojans on their own held. Both teams netted several penalties: but the Giants maneuvered the action so that when the final gun popped, they were on top. MARION 19 - LAFAYETTE lfl Marion trimmed the Broncos during the tussle played at Lafayette. The Giants, dis- playing cool, effective blocking, managed to tame the Broncos, even though the Lafayette squad rallied somewhat in the second half. MARION 26 - FT. XVAYNE CENTRAL 25 The Giants tacked up a Tiger skin to add to their winning streak but only by a one- point margin in a breath-taking game at Southside Stadium. The Tigers fought hard to crack the Giants' one-point lead: but neither team scored in the final quarter, leaving the Giants victorious. MARION 211 - XV.AX13.fXSH 13 The Victory Bell, formerly retained in Apache territory since 1947, was returned to Marion in an annual scrap that chalked the Giants a 5-win record and handed the Apaches the first defeat of their season. The game was played at Memorial Field. MARION 8 - RICHMOND 26 Even wind and weather were against the Giants as Richmond shut out the Giants' last hope of winning the '51 Conference. The game, played at Memorial Field in the midst of a raging blizzard, ended the season for both teams. Due to a safety in the second quarter, the Giants led 8-7 at half-time: but they cou1dn't maintain the lead for long. The Red Devils attacks were too powerful, and thus Marion suffered its second and final defeat of the 51 season. BASKETB LL sqzm lo, U - V- cton belong th E Spoilgh JONES HARLEY LINVILLE BARTON GOYVIN CASEY XVEISER RIX za' zts lazstmy The Marion Giants gained recognition by blasting ten opponents while yielding a like number of times. Finishing the season with an inconsistent record of fifteen wins and eleven losses, the Giants placed eighth in the conference. Marion began the season by thumping Eastern, but dropped the next game to tall Elwood. Seymour, Kokomo, and Anderson felt the fate which team de- termination by the Giants delivered to them late in the game by only a few points. In a return engage- ment, the Giants were faced by the Kokomo Kats, who pounced on us with gnawing revenge: but the Giants held together even under the terrific scoring power of the NVildcats. The Giants met a third defeat when they went on the road to Peru. On to Richmond and the New Year's Tourney! The Giants won a thrilling victory over Fort l'Vayne South Side in the afternoon game with a score of 37-365 but bowed to the ball- hawking Bearcats of lX'Iuncie, becoming the brides- maid for the third consecutive year. The blackest day fell for the Giants when Anderson humbled the team by a terrific score of 83-50. Getting back to firmer ground and victory for the Giants, the team trounced Huntington, Richmond, New Castle, and YVabash. Swinging into the rougher and latter part of the schedule, Marion survived one out of the last six contests, defeating Logansport after dropping four consecutive games to Lafayette, Tech, Fort l'Vayne Central, and Frankfort. WVe then fell before Muncie, thus closing the season on a ten won and ten lost record. Marion rolled through the Sectionals by overcom- ing three determined county squads. Passing on to Regionals, we surmounted Bluffton in the afternoon, then slid past up-set minded Redkey in the last HACKER ARCZHEY Coach Woody X'Veir checks the scores of those tough tournament foes. moments of the championship game. The fol- lowing week, Marion reluctantly succumbed to the fiery Kokomo onslaught. Barley and jones, in supreme effort, racked up 24 points each in a brilliant finish of their high school careers. jim Barley, senior veteran, sparked Marion throughout the season, becoming holder of every basketball record in M. H. S. His records estab- lished are: 30 points one game: 1015 tallies for a three-year span, and 221 points for an all-time record in the North Central Conference.

'1 Once again, this year as in previous years, Intramural basketball provided an outlet for boys who could not qualify for the varsity team. Its chief principles are sportsmanship, co-operation, and fair play. The season opened early in November and lasted until the middle of February. Bill Meyer, assistant football coach, served as the league's director. Oiflcials were members of teams not playing the game. Following a tournament, a team con- sisting of YV. Murrell, K. Mfeaver, R. Fouce, D. l'Vhite, and Faulkner made off with top honors. Front Rau' - Tucker, Carter, Ward, Daugherty. Miller, Bricker, Millwood. Second Row - Roberts, Norkus, Barton, Bragg, Mageis, Andrew.

Records were shattered both at il 5516 R'Clf '0 'l 9315 home and abroad. Two new races were introduced - the 180 yard low Regmnal hurdles event and the two-mile relay. Coach Ray Sears enforced strict train- UL Slam MCC' ing in order to condition his charges. Long hours of practice are needed to develop a true trackman. The delayed opening of the campaign was due to an impromptu cancel- lation of the Kokomo meet. The Giants fell by a close score to Muncie Central in a dual meet, in which Bill Norkus bested his previous school record, uping it to over 50 feet.

This throw of 52' 4 topped the Relays record by almost three feet. Next on the agenda, the Giants were suc- cessful in sponsoring the Marion Relays at Memorial Field. Marion withstood stiff com- petition in the conference meet and then completed the campaign keeping their win- ning ways. Jeanne Keyser reigned as l952 Track Queen, with Pat English and Carolyn Miller as her attendants. 69 Bark Row - White, Knipple, Edwards. Sermzd Ron- - Sheron. Bowman, Shull. Oliver. Synder, Beuoy.

Routs, shut-outs, and squeezed-out victories, together with the scant defeats, made up the season. After several rained-out attempts to get the season under way, the Marion Giant baseball team squashed the Portland Panthers in a rout, 13-0. Letting loose such a blast rarely happens in an opening clash. Chet jones, in allowing but one hit, effectively controlled the pitching chores. Traveling to Hartford City for the next contest, the Giants were cooled down temporarily by the Airdales, 3-l. jim Barley pitched two-hit hall, but our errors proved costly. Keeping on the road, the Giants split a double-header with the Decatur Yellow jackets. Barley again pitched a two-hitter, only to lose once more on a miscue by the second baseman. Big right-handed Roger Rix hurled perfect ball in the second game to post the hrst no- hitter of the season. The usual lineup consisted of jim Barley, Chet jones, and Roger Rix pitching: Art Herring at shortg jones at firstg Bob Gowin or Ronnie Harrell at secondg Phil Linville at shortg Andy lvyckoilf at thirdg Marcell Mills, Pete XfVolf, and Larry Pace, john Quick, Barley, or Kirby XfVeaver in the Otlt- fieldg and l'Valter Murrell or Gowin at catcher.

Coached by Keith Stroup, the racqueteers spent long hours in practice. After a dismal start, the Giants plunged into an active conference schedule, slowly gaining respect by their opponents. Playing five single matches and two doubles affairs, the squad dropped its opener to Peru. Lavere Weagley salvaged the only Giant win in the meets route.

Duckwall Coach Woody YVeir's 1952 edition of the Marion Giant golfers responded to long practice and skillful training in the expected successful manner, as the club swingers completed a fruitful season. The Weirmen began the season by winning successive dual meets with X'Vabash, New Castle, and Elwood, in that order. The usual starters were chosen from a sextet of players. Medalist honors were held frequently by jay Longacre and jim Meredith, the team's two graduating seniors. Next year's performers will have depth and experience - both which lead to success.

Having swamped Washington ol' Indianapolis in their hrst meet, the Giant varsity squad proceeded to defeat Fort YVayne South Side, Riclnnond, Fairmount, Mississinewa, and Jefferson, bowing only to Anderson, lndianapolis Tech, and our standard rival, Muncie Central. In the Marion Invitational meet, in which five teams- Kokomo, Marion, lliluncie, South Bend Central, and Fairmount participated, our Giant barriers placed second. Five seemed to be a number set by Fate for the team this year as they placed 5th in Conference and the Sectionals. Tom Archey and Vic Casey collected laurels for in- dividual scoring in dual meets, but anyone can truth- lully say that the whole team, through sportsmanship and co-operation, have made the '5l season a success.

Amid heckling underclassmen, exchanging name cards, Civics, Modern Problems, and all the other traditional activities, the class elected officers. Follow- ing the election Oct. 2, the President appointed the following committees to plan the important events for the class: Commencement, Baccalaureate, Social, Cap and Gown, Invitations, Service, Publicity, and Finance.

On a beautiful Sep- tember afternoon, the juniors came back to enroll at lXI.H.S. for the exciting year ahead. What fun it was to watch the upper-classmen initiate the sophomores. No more worries for us, we can sit back as juniors and enjoy all the activities spon- sored by the clu'bs and other classes, but, you wouldn't catch me doing anything. W'ell, it was a happy thought. Soon after we had elected our officers, we decided that we should sponsor an after-game dance for all the Giant fans at the girls' gym on November l6. After the game we went to the gym and danced to the music of a blaring juke box and drank cokes as we discussed the basketball game with other Giant I'0OtC1'S. So much for the fun, but now we had to get busy and no more fooling around. The seniors re- minded us that we had to Hnance the junior-Senior Prom. That warning glint in their eyes let us know that this year's senior class expected a colos- sal affair. Pencils, pencilsf X'Vho'll buy a pencil with the lfpper- Busily engaged in selling movie tickets are the junior Class Oflicers, President Bud Thomas. right, Vice-President Sam Thompson, Icfl: Secretary Mary Ann Hamilton, right: and Treasurer Zoe Michos, left. basketball schedule printed on it? These purple and gold pencils were the beginning of the cam- paign to finance the annual prom. Not to be out-done by the other classes, we juniors offered our part to the Student Council Talent Search. By this time we were getting to be regular stars at MHS in all sports and the finer arts as well. Lower- Iunior Class Sponsors, Miss Mary Daniels, and Mr. Albert Chapman. At last, the prom was here, and we had hired one of the best bands to provide music. The decorations were the result of hard work and a lot of time. Yes, it was a worthwhile piece of work. YVe danced and heard comments made of the prom that were pleasing to all of us. New lormals and best suits were the attire of the beaming couples. After the last dance was over, we trudged home, happy as larks because the prom had been such a success. Not many days later, we put away our U. S. History, English, and Literature books .Yes, it had been fun hadn't it? l'Ve began the summer with thoughts about the good times we would have next fall and ideas as to the decorations we would have on our cords.

Quick. 91 OPHOMORE A senior! l'Vhere can I hide? My back aches, and what I have left of 1ny nose will be scarred for lifeg and my eyes are so slightly crossed from trying to keep 1ny eyes on those pennies. Polishing seniors' shoes, their cars and running errands kept the sophomores on the run. X'Vhere is room 5510? No, don't tell me l'm on the wrong floor again! Deans??? VVhat are they? All the classes are full, Mr. Carmin. Miss Neal, I just know my schedule wasn't like this when l left junior high. These were only a few of the sad hrst day experiences of a lowly sophomore. After everyone was estabilshed, well almost any- way, the class sponsors decided that it was time to get everything organized and the activities rolling. The sophomores staggered into the auditorium, sank down into the seats, and elected our class officers on September 26. As if we didn't have enough bruises, the soph- omore class sponsored an all school skating party, which was held at the Idyl Wyld. Having a few weeks to FC-COOIJCl'2lt6, we went into work full force and had a part in the sophomore booth at the Cactus Frolic. I owe 1'- Sophomore Class Sponsors, Miss Marion Bred- heft, and Mr. E. J. Tillet. Upper- Sophomore Class Ollicers. President Albert Harker. Vire- President Dixie Adkins. 'l'reastu'er jade McMillan. and Secretary Constance Leckie looked over the year's plans. X'Vonderful! Marvelous! Super! Best yet! were a few of the adjectives used to describe the Student Council Talent Search in which many sophomores participated. Some ol' these music maestros had been walking through the halls of Marion High, just waiting to be discovered. Y'Vere we amazed to hnd out who they were. 'Twas the week before Christmas and all through the halls, we heard the sophomores working very industriously to decorate the Christmas tree. Hun- dreds of lights, millions of tinsel icicles, and all the other things that make a tree look just right were put on. lt was a real masterpiece, and all the students agreed that it added a generous amount ol' holiday cheer to the school. Much too soon, the wonderful vacation days were over, and the sophomores had to come back to school. For the next few days the halls buzzed with gossip about the Christmas gifts, the Christ- mas dance and the places which had been visited. Then - the dreaded semester exams popped up in all the classes. Hours ol' intense study were put in by everyone. After a quick look at the tattle- tale report cards, everyone decided to slip into his own little cocoon and study his lessons. Latin, geometry, biology, general business, and commer- cial arithmetic were given almost undivided atten- tion the second semester. So I lay: a lonely, lowly, and forgotten sopho- more. .
