The organization in- cluded all the seventh and eighth grade pupils of the city. A student body of approximately 600 were cared for by a faculty of 23 teachers, ln May, 1923, anfewk days after the school year, the old building was destroyed by fire, and, for two years the seventh and eighth grade pupils were taken care of in the various grade buildings of the city. The present structure was completed in September, 1925, and a new organization composed of the seventh and eighth and ninth grades proudly took possession of the new building. The student body now numbers 624, with a faculty of 33 members. -MRS. ANDERSON The Sketch 5 Faculty Row I.

N THE LIFE OF EVERY PERSON ther: are ev.nts and happenings which bring a mingling of joy, happiness, sorrow, and regret. There are events which are of such outstanding importance that they make all other things pale into insignificance. Such an event is upon us. and has been preceded by three of the happiest and most fruitful years of our young lives. It marks a turning point, in which we step on to a higher plain. and that it has its joys and sorrow, goes without saying. During this period, we have formed many friendships, among both the students and faculty-friendships that will live and grow through the future years and that mean more to us than they appear to now. We have learned much, not only from books, but from hap- py associations and experiences. We have enjoyed the best of social activities. The sorrow comes in leaving all of these things. But we look on Martin Boots as our alma mater, knowing that we wilg always be welcome to return and realizing that we will rcturn, many times. As every preceding class has, and every future class will, we be- lieve the January class of l93O is the best to graduate. ln our midst are outstanding scholars, athletes, musicians, social leaders-in fact, the entire list of types necessary for an excel- lent class. Many of us hope to carry on in the Senior High School with even more success. No dcubt many of us, in our chosen fields. will be even more successful, In closing, We bid a sad farewell to Mr. Vandivier and Mrs. Finderson, and to the faculty to whom we owe so much, were it not for their friendship and their obliging help, we could never carry on at High School. No words can ever express our true feelings for them. and our thankfulness for what they have done. May We carry on as they have started us, and may we make such marks in High Shool that they will be proud of us, Farewell.

HI-lome Room First seems to be the motto of every boy and girl in Martin Boots. The Home Room has charge of the general administration of the affairs within the room. They tend to create a proper attitude of courtesy, loyalty. industry, sportsmanship, and other qualities among the student body. At least once each month each home room presents a program of entertainment to its members. Occasionally parties are given which give the students social training. The home room fosters a better relationship between the teachers and students. They become better acquainted through their cooperation in Home Room affairs. Students of the Home Room also become better acquainted With each other. The aim is, 'ATO make the home room the students home, ---Miss HARDIN Mr. Hopkins, Room 6 President ,,,.,.,,. ..

This club has been making very rapid progress the past six weeks. Good luck, bachelors. LUB LIFE provides relaxation from the class room routine, affords opportunity for gratifying individual tastes and ambitions, for exercising special tastes and ambitions, for exercising special talents and aptitudes, for developing leadership, and for assembling indi- vidual interests in the same activities. The History of Clubs, dates back to the organization of a few clubs such as Bcy's and Girl's Glee Clubs and Dramatic Club. These few clubs being alone in the field contained many members not par- ticularly interested in these special sukjects, For the past three years Martin Boots pupils have had the privilege of belonging to clubs which especially interested them, This year we have six Girl Reserve groups, Junior Hi-Y, which meet on Monday, while there are twen- ty-five special clubs meeting on Wednesday. More than five hundred students are enrolled in one of these interesting clubs. 14 The Sketch' ARTS AND CRAFTS CLUB Sponsor ...,. .

The object of this class is to give each 8A pupil some experience in public speaking. Some of the elementary principles of stage craft are -presented and each class must prepare and present at least one short play during the semester. Auditorium meets one day a week and at that time classes meet in the Auditorium instead of the class room. The MarBoo AFTER TWO YEARS, the Literary Department of Martin Boots has advanced from publishing one page in the Senior High School paper to publishing a four-page paper of its own. This achievement was made possible by the continuous work of Miss Velva Walter and Mr. Vandivier. The MarBoo is written and edited by the 9B I and ll English classes of Martin Boots, who are under the capable supervision of Miss Velma Walter, our faculty advisor, The paper is one of the Junior High School publications, in the Middle West, completely in- dependent of Senior High School contributions or sales. Our aim is to record bits of news heard in the halls, programs of home rooms and clubs, Weekly and special assembly entertain- ments, and school sports. Thus an effort is being made to break down any Walls of separation between grades. to establish an everlasting fellowship among our fellow students, and to develop a spirit of good sportsmanship for all occasions. Although only a monthly at this time the MarBoo has hopes of becoming a bi-monthly or even a weekly publication. The Library MARTIN BOOTS boasts of having a branch library of the Marion Public Library. The library is made up of approximately one hundred and forty books, including seventh, eighth, and ninth years books. The books are used for pleasure reading. as well as for fredii reading, including both fiction and non-fiction. The library is in room 205 and under the capable' supervision of Miss Cole, The librarians are 9B girls. Books may be obtained from the library at mornings, 3rd period, noons and after school. The Sketch 17 The library has received a total amount of four dollars for over- due lines and has made a monthly report to the Marion Public Li- brary. g All students are urged to patronize the library, and the librari- ans will try to please you to the best of their ability in obtaining books for credit. -HELEN WILEY The Student Council HE STUDENT COUNCIL of Martin Boots is an organization used for discussing the school problems. Two members, one boy and one girl. are elected from each home room. A Student Council Guide Book is now being made by the mem- bers. Each member of the Council is asked to write up a report on dif- ferent subjects that are to be printed in the book. The book is ex- pected to be published in the second semester of 1930, -MARY CULP Thrift Thrift is good management or the business of Ima HE NECESSARY PROPERTY of individual achievement and good citizenship is thrift. Only by thrift may one repay to his elders the kindness that they gave him during his dependent age. Also as one ages in life it becomes vitally necessary to have some money laid aside. During the course of school life of boys and girls there comes .in almost inevitable period in which to decide whether to get a job or to continue with an education. Authorities have proven that each diy spent in school is Worth ten dollars in actual money. ln the school savings bank the students ftrst have a chance to de- posit his money and to have an idea for which to save. After grad- uation comes the college life and many students have enough saved from their school banks to pay their way through college. Money saved is not the sum total of thrift. lt is only one of the stones in the building of character: thrift of time: thrift of health and moral thrift. ll' the individual follows the ideal of thrift throughout his life. and keeps this in mind always he has a beaten path to success. -FRANK MAIDENBURG '8 The Sketch Hallowe'en Carnival Cfrom the MarBooD MARTIN BOOTS third bigger and better annual carnival on Tues- day, October 29. The doors opened at seven p.m. and by seven-thirty the building was well lilled. One of the big attractions was Bob Butler's Arab Serenadersf' Grover Pollard's Dixie Min- strels i was another headliner. There were various side shows such as The Scaramountn, Death of Paw and The Beauty Parlor. The Gypsy Camp in the gymnasium was picturesque with an out- of-door atmosphere. The fun continued until about ten o'clock and the crowd began to thin. From all appearances every one got full re- turn for money invested and we hope that our school will continue to have yearly frolics of this nature. . Midget Players THE MIDGET PLAYERS is an organization made up of 7B pupils in Room 116. This Club made its initial bow to the public on November 12, when it gave the play Jean Valjean in the auditorium at the third period. The production consisted of two acts with two scenes. 'The guests were 7B pupils of Martin Boots, Misses Sturgis, Cole, Eastman, White, Scott, Mrs. Huber and Mrs. Curless. By request the play was repeated on December 6, before the general assembly.

It was of no use whatsoever. I should much rather be a real live flower, it sighed one day. Real live flowers are so stately, colorful, and refined: but here I am a pencil sketch, and am as square as a cube, she continued. The drawing had been in a dusty corner of a Botany class for several years--unnoticed and neglected. It was in May, and the Bot- any class was all excited. They were dismissing school for the summer vacation. They usually had an exhibition sale of the flowers and drawings they had studied and made. At first one of the girls spied the squared flower alone in the dark corner. I-et's dust that drawing up and sell it for-well, let's give it away! Nobody will ever know the difference! urged the finder. They did not all agree to this suggestion. Days passed by the squared flower felt herself being put on the sale table. Many pretty colorful draw- ings were in piles and the poor little squared drawing was left on the very bottom of the pile. Tomorrow would be exhibition day in the Botany class. V I Many people passed by the table some pausing to look at the at- tractive drawings, but none noticed the squared drawing. At the very last hour. a young man walked into the room. I-Ie looked'at the pile of drawings. On the bottom of the pile appeared the deserted draw- ing. I believe I'll take this one. the young man said referring to the little squared drawing, I shall give it to her--to the one I love most, he mused silently. . .. A I At last the little drawing had found a happyehome. LONGING - fOriginal Poem? When the day is dark and dreary. When you long for summer to come. With its stately golden rod and sunflower And bright gleaming sun. You wish that old man winter. XVould go back home to stay, And that the sunshine and the flowers Would reign forever and a day. Z0 The Sketch Music A THE MUSIC DEPARTMENT of Martin, Boots Junior High School has two divisions: namely, vocational and instrumental. There are 220 pupils enrolled in the vocal department, One hundred and sixty-nine of these pupils constitute nine part time classes while the remaining 51 form the boys' and girls' Glee Club. The Girls' Glee Club, composed of 38 members, meets one period a week. The Boys' Cilee Club is composed of I3 members and meets one period a week The aim of the music department is to further interest and to develop appreciation for the best in music. MARTIN BOOTS ORCHESTRA The Martin Boots Orchestra Club conducted by Mr. Jones meets regularly the third period every Wednesday and is expected to be playing some attractive numbers in the near future. The orchestra consists of the following: Violins, 16: Horns, 2: Violincellos, 3: Pianos, 2: Clarinets, 7: Flute, l: and Corners, 2. BA-NDS Martin Boots has three bands, namely, one, two, and three which are directed by Mr. Tuttle and Mr. Elliott. There are one hundred forty students taking Land as an electivesubject. New plans are being made whereby the stronger pupils in Band I will be trans- ferred to Band II and those in Band II who do not seem to understand the work will be transferred back to Band I. By this method it is hoped to advance the ambitions and more talented students and give the slower pupils a better opportunity for grasping the fundamentals. Band 3:is 'working on some diflicult contest numbers, such as Scene from Nibelungen Ring by Wagner and I-Iuldingungs March also by Wagner. The band is doing splendid work. PROGRAMS Lychenheim Trio A GN SEPTEMBER 9, a program featuring the Lychenheim Trio, composed of Marion Lychenheim. pianist: Rosalind Wallach. violinist: and Anne Slack, violocellist was held in the auditorium. This Trio was enthusiastically received by the pupils. The program consisted of the following numbers: Morning,' and Anitra's Room programs, one for ll2 and the other for 216. They also played for the T.P.A. and the Y.M.C.A. and a few other places. M The Sketch 21 Dance, from Peer Gynt Suite by Greig: Andante from Surprise Symphony by Haydn. To The Evening Star by Wagner Liebe- straume by Liszt, Salut d'Amour by Elgar, Air for G String by Bach, On Wings of Song by Mendelssohn, Viennoise by Kreisler, By the Waters of Minnetonka by Lieurance, Deep River -by William Arms Fisher, and Shepherds Hey by Grainger. Michel Wilkomirski Martin Boots had the pleasure of hearing the great artist, Michel Wilkomirishi, and his very talented pianist, William Hughes. Michel Wilkomirski is a new Polish violinist, who made his American debut under the direction of the Modern Institute of Paris. His parents were Polish although h ewas born in Russie. He is at this time on the faculty of the American Branch of the Modern Institute of Violin recently opened in Chicago. artistic sense of interpretation has distinguished him as an artist with a remarkable future. Numbers by Mr. Wilkomirski were Variations by Tartini- Kreisler: Waltz by Brahms: Andalusion Romance by Sarasate: Arabian Song - fScheherazadeJ by Rimsky-Korsakoff: Nocturne in D' Plat, Chopin: Chinese Drum Kreisler. Numbers by Mr. Hughes were 'lButterliy 'i by Greig: Bird Song by Greig: Minuet by Paderwski: Country Gardens by Grainger. ous BRowN15's ORCHESTRA ' A recent addition to our musical organizations is l'The Merry- Maker's Orchestra with Gus Browne, director: Alfred Johnson. drummer: Junior Skinner. saxaphonist: Bob Merritt, cornetist: Leon Champers, Dick Hamilton, clarinetists: Jerome Savesky, pianist: and Robert Alter, violinist. We are expecting to hear a good program soon by these coming musicians. . . , ., , I PoLLARD's ORCHESTRA - Martin Boots has an extra curricular orchestra. The Harmony King. and consists of the following musicions: ,E Grover Pollard, piano: Eugene Pennington, saxaphone: Lester Lennon, violin: Roger Riley, clarinet: Albert Johnson, drums: Har- old Foulke, cornet. I The orchestra gave a Ministrel Show at the Halloween Carnival and cleared ten dollars and eighty-five cents, - . f The program consisted of 'Tm Just a Vagabond Lover, Pagan Love Song, l'Am I Blue, and a dialogue given by three members of the orchestra Since then they have given two Home 22 I g The Sketch F w R i i THE ARAB SERENADERS ,P Tom Hamilton, drumsg Bill Oatis, piano and organ: Alonzao White, bass and bass viulg Kenneth Kennedy, cello: Orville Hardiman, banjo, Arthur Gore, violin: Dawson Harmon, violin, Bob Foster, violin: BilltLittle, trombone: stanley Casey, trumpet: Paul McCoy, trumpet: Wendall Downs, trumpet: Burnell Smith, saxaphone: James Blakemore, saxa- phone: Mex Long, saxaphoneg Walter Boon, clarinet: cmrera Pi-ter, clarinet. This organization was formed in the fall of 1928 and consisted of twelve Serenaders, which later was increased to sixteen. They nrst played at a dramatic club party and made such a hit they were asked to play in the assembly. Mr. Vandivier was from the beginning back of the boys andsecured for them their iirst outside playing for a J. A, C. dinner. Since that time the group has played before prac- tically every club, in town and has broadcasted a number of times. Much of the success of this band is due to the hard work of their di- rector Bobbie Butler. However, each of the boys has worked hard as the accomplishments of this orchestra would have been impossible without complete cooperation. Bobbie himself does a great deal of the vocal work assisted by Max Long. The Wit for this company is furnished by Bobbie, Tom Hamilton, and Walter Boone. We are sure that this orchestra will soon be classed along with Charlie Davis, Paul Whiteman, and Al Kavalt. The Sketch 23 Art Department ANY OF THE valuable facts in the history of our race have been gathered from art remains, in the ruins of old buildings, carved ornaments, decorations on pottery and on woven fabrics. In all ages artists have put the customs of the people around them, the costumes, games, great deeds in war, etc., into their own carvings and paint- ings. The feelings and ,emotions of people took a place among the subjects represented so that artists influenced their fellowmen. 1 Good taste, in the ciield of art, is the application of the principles of design toiithe problems in life where appearance as well as utility is a consideration. Having this thought in mind, a new department has been added to the Art clause, that of Craft or Applied Design. These classes-have been organized in the ninth..year-working for two periods each day in a room of the Horace Mann building under the direction Qftfgiiss White. A M T - lVlissiSicott, teaches the 7B and 8B classes in color and composi- tion. Centering the subject matter around figure sketching. Students enjoy the opportunity for self-expression and so that desires to create may be developed, provision is made for those of spec, ial ability. Beautiful things areinoAt':only,,drawn on paper in line and color, but can be lived in daily and found inicommon things. Art is wherever the feet of men tread. whatever his ear hear. and where- ever his soul lives. Physical Education ATHLETICS HAVE ALWAYS had a very prominent place among Martin Boots activities. Our athletic program has many phases. It is linked with Physical Education. A part of each week in both lzoys and girls Gym classes is given over to organized team games. Both boys and girls have Home Room teams which compete during the noon period. The boys have intramural sports in the guise of leagues . Teams play in the morning and in the evening after school. In the fall the Leagues play baseball, soccer, volley ball, and push ball Through the winter and eary spring Decathlon and Pen- tathlon are featured. The slogan of the school when it comes to paly is 'iAthletics for everybody-and we should like to say evervbodv for Ath'etic'. 24 The Sketch Tumblingtifeam ' FRONT--Annabel!

GIRLS' ATHLETICS In the school curricula of Indiana. the term Physical Education is practically new. It is recognized by prominent educators as a sub- ject of vital importance to every boy and girl. Although health edu- cation is only one phase of Physical Education. it is of great imf portance. By a planned program of play, recreation and exercise it is hoped to improve the health not only of the boys and girls of Mar- ion, but of the nation. For the past few months the girls of Martin Boots Junior High School have been enjoying a program of play in their gynasium classes. Early in the fall the game called Soccer was included in this program. Although handicapped by the small playing field, the girls played several interesting games and a few good players devel- oped. Due to weather conditions the game with the McCulloch team was not played. During the Winter months Kick-Pin-Ball has been the girls favorite sport. Each Home Room has an organized team which plays in a noon league on Mondays and Fridays. ln the month of November. motor ability stunt tests were given in each gym class to determine the motor ability or muscular co-ordi- nation of each student. The tests are to be given again in the spring to estimate the progress made. . The Sketch THE STATE TOURNAMENT 1928 29 The Martin Boots team composed of1Dray.

As the staff feared the game would not interest the persons who do not understand it, a list of definitions have been compiled to assist those few uneducated spectators in enjoying the game. ABasketball Player: A human being, fleet as a of an eagle, and the tenacity of a bulldog deer, with the eyes Basketball Floor: A swell place for skinning knees, elbows and opponents. Basket: An iron hoop which seems to be about half the size of the ball. Referee: A demon whose life is devoted to cisions. making wrong de- Ball: An elusive sphere which appears and disappears in a most confusing and tantalizing way. Coach: A tyrant noted for his vocabulary and scathing words. Team: Five men who sell their lives as dearly as possible for the sake of the school. Center: A human telephone pole with large feet and a gum chewing ability second to none. Forwards: These are the players that are cheered the most, Guards: The duty of these men is to make all the baskets pre- ferably from the center of the floor. Free Throw: A prize always given to the opponents by the referee. The Sketch 27 Departments Mathematics RITHMETIC is A Mosr VITAL SUBJECT. It enters into our daily lives in all forms of measurement, the making of change, the telling of time, the keeping of scores, and the planning of practically all effort, whether it be in vocation or professions. No boy or girl can afford to stop short of as thorough a mastery of this subject as his native mentality will permit. While for the average person Algebra may not seem to be use- ful, yet it is surprising how many things one can do with numbers by using the various principles of Algebra. Some of the hardest prob- lems can be answered in Algebraic form through the equation before the Arithmetic answers are known. It is a very fascinating subject and its fundamental laws are valuable not only in discovering values and relationships existing in the field of science, but also like Arithmetic it aids in promoting those finer and desirable habits and qualities of mind and character admired in any individual. Science HE PRIMARY OBJ ECT of General Science is to aid the pupil in in- terpreting his environments and to train him in the habit of thinking from cause to effect and from effect to cause. Innumerable applications of Science in home and civic life are studied. Several pupils are carrying out projects of their own volition. William Ec- khart is experimenting with growing plants by artificial light, Jack De Wolf has kept a record and made a graph of barometer readings. Yates Smith is recording the development of tadpoles. Several pupils are making collections of fossils and carrying out home experiments. Biology is the study of both plant and animal life. This subject touches some phase of interest in every child's life, and is a subject that comes into use every day in a practical way. Aims of course: To acquaint the student with such facts as will help him to live a healthy life: to bring about a healthy community. C25 will give him the right attitude toward many civic problems as: sanitation, etc. C31 will show him the fundamental relationships between plants and animals. Q4-J will give a correct attitude toward germ theory of disease, vac- cination andg heredity. Many interesting projects are being carried out by the students of this course. 28 The Sketch Social Studies IT IS THE AIM of the Social Science Department to prepare those students enrolled in this course for a larger and more useful place in society by creating in the students proper attitudes. History and Civics class work is carried on by means of social- ized recitation which may include discussions, debates, dramatizations etc. Geography classes with their pictures, travel talks, imaginary journeys make far places and people real to the student. Vocational classes make excursions to various industrial plants of the city and successful business men and women speak to these classes about their work. Students attend civic club luncheons where- they meet people of many vocations. Foreign Language LATIN IS A PRACTICAL language. Why? Because two-thirds of our words are derived from it and consequently a better under- standing of English is obtained through a knowledge of Latin. French, the baby of our language department was introduced January 1929. At present the classes are following with interest the adventures of Remi Barberin. The French club. Le Cercle Francais formed by the 9A Class, meets twice a month. Spain has aptly been called The Land of Romance! What country can offer a more romantic figure than Don Quixote , hero of the world's greatest novel. ln the realm of art we find Velasquez and Murillo among the greatest masters. Home Economics THERE IS N0 SUBJECT taught in school that more carefully trains a girl for her place in the home than Home Economics. Every girl who takes the Home Economics course has one term of sewing and one of cooking when she has finished and has a general know- ledge of each. , In clothing classes the 7B girls make cooking uniforms. The 8B's make attractive underwear and pajamas. The ninth year girls make coolie coats and dresses. In food classes the 7A and 8A classes have laboratory work. In the ninth grade foods are studied as to their origin, chemical com- position, value, and nutrition, The Sketch Z9 Industrial Arts OOD WORK IN Martin Boots is compulsory in the seventh grade, ill optional in the eighth and ninth grades. The seventh grade projects are hat and coat racks, book racks, tie racks and smoking stands. Eighth grade projects are end tables, smoking stands, maga- zine racks, hall trees. Advanced classes are open to ninth grade boys only. General metal shop is perhaps the newest organized shop work given to boys of the ninth grade. The aim of general shop is to give' those enrolled information as to what the metal may hold in store for them as future mechanics. electricians. Projects in sheet metal ma- chine shop, practical electricity, auto mechanics, Wood Work, weav- ing. plumbing, Wood-turning, pattern making and forging are be- ing carried on. Radio Work is given to second term students. At pres- ent the 9A Shop boys are overhauling a Ford roadster. Usually about 90 boys take shop during the day. Cafeteria QUR LIFE DEPENDS a great deal upon what we at and Martin Boots cafeteria provides the most wholesome foods to be had. The cafeteria serves meals to 275 students and teachers daily, and the average meal costs from 15 to 20 cents. The ladies who prepare the food are always glad to assist at banquets or any other social func- tions. We are very grateful for their help and the best way to express our appreciation is to do all We can to make the cafeteria a success. ' Twenty-third Psalm The teacher is my shepherd. I shall always want, She maketh me bow down to her. She leadeth me into deep waters. She raspeth my soul. She leadeth me into paths of work for meaness sake.
