Thus Wcas Exactly the Letter We E is exactly the letter needed to tell of our eventful life at Martinsville High School. Everyday found us entering classes and en- gaging in conversation with friends and teach- ers. The curriculum offerings were varied, and from these we could choose that which would help us most in the future. But our days were not entirely consumed by classwork. There were clubs to meet the desires and needs of everyoneg there were Each morning Tom Schulz and Mike Myers put up the flag and at night take it down, LEFT A representative of Indiana Bell Telephone shows says Kenneth Dixon, as Hamilton. to Larry Collier, playing Mane Hamilton how to opelate the neu swltchboard located Mark.

Chose To Tell Our Story of l957-58 . . musical organizations, plays, and class func- tions. Naturally, school life would not be com- plete without social activities and athletics, which were available in abundance. Certainly our days were busy, but as we recall each event from report card day and semester exams to the Prom and May Festival, we feel that events of the 57 - 58 school year have greatly enriched our lives.

PAGE FIVE Effort Was Apparent In Our Year Effort was apparent in every phase of school life. Students strived to excel in their classwork and extra-curricular activities. They worked toward scholarships, and they tried to determine what their interests and abilities were. Everyone was interested in science, be- cause of the race to reach outer space, but more down to earth interests included the class elections, For the first time, the under- class election was held like the general elec- tions and the seniors elected their officers in a convention. With winning seasons in all sports, school spirit reached an all-time high. In every phase of school life, effort and enthusiasm were vital factors. Indiana Employment Tests were given to those seniors desiring to enter their chosen occupations. Ralph Foley and Nyla Neal register Lana Murphy at the Annual Open House.

In addition to mixers after ball games, noon hour recreation and dancing, there were several bright seasonal dances. Held in the fall was the Harvest Dance followed by the Christmas Dance in December. The latter presented an early atmosphere of holiday cheer. The Royal Ball, the final seasonal dance, was held in honor of St. Valentines day.

Enthusiastic Praise Was Given to the Plays and Concerts Received with praise and enthusiasm were the dramatical and musical presentations of the MHS students. After a lapse of three years, the choral students gave an operetta, which was re- ceived with warm approval. The choirs, band, and the orchestra presented a variety of music for the enjoyment of students at various programs. They were also in the public eye a number of times, and climaxed the year with the annual May Festival. , Ovations and laughter greeted the several plays of the year. Star-light, Star-brightf, given in the fall, was the successful first at- tempt for the juniors. In February the Dramatics Club presented a serious drama, Double Doors, and spaced between these were a number of colorful speech class plays. Finally, in April, Spring Fever was given by the eminent seniors. LEFT: Practicing for a speech class play to be given to the student body are Judy Elmore, who played the mother, Dan Goetcheus holding Martha Woods, who faints, and Barry Russell and Jim Miller who are supposed to be gymnastically inclined.

PAGE THIRTEEN Education Meant Classes, Books and Proiects To gain an education, which will help us to make successful lives for ourselves after graduation, is the primary purpose of school. Whether we go to college or begin immediately to provide for ourselves, we are better pre- pared for the future after we have completed our high school education. We may be trained in business, homemak- ing, or agriculture. We may learn much about industrial arts, or science, which is being stressed todayg and we may take a variety of these and other subjects to prepare ourselves for college. Most of all, we learn how to become better citizens of our community and how to live better with others. LEFT: The home economics students learn many useful things.

WARD BROWN New School Buildings Toke the Spotlight With the completion of the Poston Road Elementary School, the School Board began plans for the construction of another grade school at the end of east Columbus Street. The East School is to be finished by the fall of 1958. Many new students with the aid of Supt. Cyrus Gunn and Principal Ward Brown en- tered into the active life of MHS. Although the enrolhnent continues to increase, the ad- ministration with expert planning has kept the routine on an even keel. In connection with the constant use of the buildings, Mr. Brown suggested a new activities calendar which was installed in the Dean's office. The board ordered research material for the faculty and purchased a bus for the students to be used to transport them to various func- tions. The school administration procured new bookkeeping equipment for the new office which is located at 190 South Jefferson Street.

Q5 MRS. HELEN DAVIS MR. RAYMOND KENNEDY Life of High School Deon Has Many Facets In addition to advising the girls at MHS who may encounter difficulties along the route of the turbulent teens, Mrs. Helen Davis also teaches a home economics class. As dean of girls her official duties are at- tendance. She issues blue and occasionally pink slips and checks on the health and welfare of each girl. She is also club co-ordinator, a job which has become quite involved with the increase in clubs and membership. This year she assumed responsibility of the school calendar which entails scheduling and clearing all events held by the school or in the school. Mrs. Davis also serves as secretary of the Teachers Council. 0 Mr. Raymond Kennedy, our new assistant principal, has other titles following his name. He is dean of boys and sponsor of Student Council. , As assistant principal he helps Mr. Brown whenever and however possible. Detentions are meted out and served in his office, and al- though he is kind and has a nice smile, the boys have learned that he can also say without wavering, That will be 25 minutes, and if you're late we'll double it. In his role as dean of boys, he also checks daily attendance of the male students. Sponsoring Student Council also requires a great deal of time as the Council holds such an important role in student government.

Effort of Stott Assures Smooth Operation We have a very efficient staff that makes it possible for our school to run smoothly. Al- though they are usually behind the scene, we could not operate without their cooperation, Mr. Baker, our maintenance director, sees to it that repairs and supplies are taken care of. Checking the attendance and assisting ill students to get home from school are the main interests of Mr. Taylor. Mrs. Jean Favour and her assistants carry out the school health program. Various tests LEFT T0 RIGHT: Mrs. Evelyn Eubank, Bookstore Man- agerg Mr. Herschel Baker, Director of Maintenance and which help in protecting a good physical con- dition are given by this staff in addition to first aid in the clinic. The schools bookkeeping is taken care of very expertly by Mrs. Evelyn Eubank, who is manager of the bookstore. Filing student records, recording attend- ance, duplicating tests, and publishing the daily bulletin are a few of the many and varied services performed by the secretarial staff in the high school office.

The Council also set up rules and standards for a new type of class elections. Instead of voting by ballot in home rooms, underclassmen registered and voted as if they were participating in an actual public election. Seniors, allowed to campaign, chose their officers in a convention similar to the national party conventions. Other projects included the purchase of new SCC banners and two sets of folding bleachers. The Council obtained a juke box for the girl's gym and supplied students with stationery to write to the mayor about a teen center. To conclude the year, the group chose Lana Murphy, MHS's first dele- gate in several years, to attend the National Student Council Convention. S. Torphy, S. Smith, ROW 4: L, Murphy, S. Crisman, N.

Under the guidance of their sponsor, Robert Speelman, they completed an eventful year. In the fall the Lettermen sold Martinsville Artesian bumper plates and distributed the programs at ballgames. Later in the year the members continued a display of goodwill and service, as they pre- sented a Christmas basket to a needy family in the community. They also joined with the G.A.A. girls to sponsor the annual Christmas Dance, As sectional time drew near Artesian beanies were sold to help boost school spirit and sportsmanship.

The members are students who are especially interested in photography and have it as a hobby. Under the sponsorship of Richard Outcalt the first semester and John Hauenstein the second semester, the group is working to equip a darkroom, which can be used by the school in the future. Mr. Outcalt supplied the club with a series of films on various phases of photography. From these the members have gained a good background for actual work in a darkroom.

In addition, all members were guests of the Indiana Farm Bureau Coop Asso- ciation at a banquet held in the Claypool Hotel. They received a gold medal for placing first in the State Chapter Contest for the fifth time in the past six years. Individual achievements were made when Larry Boner was elected sentinel of Indiana Section 4, and Larry Schoolcraft was elected sentinel of District 8. The latter was also the recipient of the Hoosier Farmer degree. With all this award winning, the boys still had time to entertain their girl friends and their fathers, and on one occasion the entire family. They also joined members of the Fu- ture Homemakers at an annual party.

The club also sponsored a car wash, as a money-making project, held a formal and in- PAGE FORTV SIX formal initiation, a boy friend party, and at- tended the play night at University High School.

E Meant Exhcustion Working to meet a deadline is not an easy task as the members of the Artesian staff learned. Copy must be written, typed, sent to the printer, and then the dummy must be pasted up. From the beginning of the year each member of the staff, includ- ing artists, typists, writers, and ad- visors, worked toward only one goal -to make the yearbook good and get it out on time. As the year progressed, the theme, The Big 'E' developed as life was breathed into it with pictures, artwork, and copy. Finally, after a year's work the annual was made a success. Following the instructions of Miss Rose, business advisor for the Artesian, is Lana Murphy. Junior business manager, while Carolyn Dutton, Senior business manager, looks on. The 1958 Artesian Staff also included lbottom to 'copy Jackie Harden, Kathy Pearcy, Bob Prather, Marie Hamilton, Tom Duncan. Kaye Martin, and Judy Hancock. PAGE FIFTY Choose TV Theme for Highlights Nine years falmost a decade! in existence, the HIGHLIGHTS magazine once again pre- sented an opportunity for students to display their writing ability. The 1958 TV issue had for its theme television, and was very clev- erly advertised by a tiny TV repairman seen on posters around the school. Much time and thought went into the pro- duction of the TV issue? English students wrote material of all kinds and submitted it for possible use. Next the reading and edi- torial staffs carefully read and recommended articles to Editor Beverly Allison who had the task of making the final decision. Then the typing staff prepared the material for printing, While the artists finished their cartoonsg and finally, in May the HIGHLIGHTS was pub- lished. The senior high staffs were guided by Miss McCoy, and the junior high staff was under the direction of lvliss Marshall.

Staffs Race To Meet Their Deadlines Two journalism classes comprised the staff of the Artesian Herald this year. Planning and guiding their efforts were Tom Duncan, editor-in-chief, Assistant Editors Sharon Fultz and Kent Willis, and Mrs. Mann, sponsor. The editor turned his talents to photography and the paper came to life with action shots. Using the artistic talent available on the staff, the editor further increased reader interest with cartoons and cross word puzzles. The classes again provided food, clothing and gifts for two families at Christmas and sponsored the Miss Merry Christmas-Mr. Santa Claus contest. The Pressman's Ball was their contribution to the social activities. PAGE FIFTYYTWO J. Fowler, L. Moss, P Harrell, K. Martin, R Brummett, J. Kivett ROW 2: J. Myers, S Albertson. S. Platt, S Poor, J.

Football Teom Hits the Glory Troil For the first time during the new era of Mar- tinsville football the Artesians ended their 1958 schedule with a winning record. Coach Robert Speelman, being assisted by Mr. John Mann and Mr. Robert Czupryn, led the Artesians to the sixth spot in the South Central Conference. The biggest game of the year for the locals was the victory over the Bedford Stone Cutters. Bedford was rated in the top ten of the state. However, the Artesians, realizing the Bedford game was the last chance to record a winning season fought hard all the way to drop the ranked team 27 to 7.

The hardwood boys added another trophy to the showcase by winning the Holiday tour- ney at Franklin and brought back the Shavin' Mug by defeating the Panthers from Blooming- ton. After an easy schedule the first part of the season, the second half saw the Artesians meet- ing some of the toughest teams in the state. The locals upset sixth ranked Jeffersonville and tripped number one Terre Haute Garfield. Although Jim Downey, starting center, was PAGE FIFTY EIGHT Beach, Larry Pottorff, John Sedwick, Jim Downey, David East, Tom Bowman, Warren Schnaiter, Duane Schoolcraft, Kenneth Lavender, SOD confined to the hospital, the MHS netters took the boys from Crispus Attucks into a double overtime before losing by two points. Even though the Artesians entered the tour- ney with a fifteenth rating, they were unable to play the caliber of ball that they had been playing during the season. After squeezing by Stinesville and Mooresville, MHS was elim- inated by arch rival Bloomington. With six wins and three losses in confer- ence play the locals tied for third place in the SCC. Larry Pottorff, leading scorer for the year, was named to the All-South Central Con- ference team and nominated for the All-State team.

The mile relay teams composed of David Oldham, Barry Russell, Dan Richardson, and Jerry Bales blazed to a new school record. This mile relay team placed in the sectional and qualified for the regional. Barry Russell and Dan Richardson also qualified in the individual events.

Gregson was the individual conference champ- ion. The thinly clads placed second in the sec- tional and eighteenth in the state. They took most of the dual meets in which they ran. At the end of the season Duane Schoolcraft and Merlin Gregson were named honorary co-cap- tains. ' The prospects are bright for next year with seven returning lettermen. Tennis Squad Is Youngest Yet With the youngest squad in MHS tennis history, the local racket boys started the sea- son under their new coach, Jim Miller. Like golf, the tennis team plays its sched- ule in the spring and its conference match in the fall. This fall the boys tied for a re- spectable third place in the SCC match, bringing home 16 2X3 points for MHS to- wards the all sports trophy. Playing in the conference match for the Artesians was freshman, Bill Byrumg sopho- mores, John Sedwick and Jerry Bertelseng and junior, Clark Hill. The team was hindered in their fall warm- up matches as the City Park tennis courts were undergoing repair. The courts are now equipped with an asphalt surface and lights.

Golf Team Hit by Graduation After having a winning season of five vic- tories and only three defeats last spring, the golf team was hit hard by graduation and could only manage a seventh place in the fall South Central Conference meet. In the Batesville Invitational last spring the linksmen placed fifth in a field of 17. At Bedford the MHS squad ranked sixth out of the 19 teams competing in the sectional. Starting this fall under Coach Henry Pearcy were Kenny Hastings, Walter Jordan, Stewart Allen, and Dan Goetcheus.

We were just be- ginning a long excursion of experiences that would prepare us for a bigger and longer jour- ney into a life on our own. Immediately we plunged into a busy extra curricular life-athletics, clubs, and musical organizations. But we soon learned to apply ourselves first in our classes and then use any left-over energy for clubs, dances, and parties. Each year found us returning to school anx- ious to begin our busy activities, but each year also found us wiser and more poised. Days into weeks and finally we were juniors, buying class rings and presenting our first class play, Man of Seventeen. Eight of us were elected to the National Honor Society, as our third year in high school came to a close. September 1957 found us returning to the halls of MHS as dignified seniors in our tradi- tional senior cords and skirts. Many of us were leaders in the various organizations and in our class. We saw before us a busy schedule ready to unfold. Mr. MacReynolds came to take our senior pictures, and before long we were ordering announcements and being meas- ured for caps and gowns. Then we were at the Jr.-Sr. Prom, given in our honor, which PAGE SIXTY SIX Extremely busy with plans for senior activities are class officers tseatedl Shirley Albert- son, secretaryg Miss Rose, spon- sorg Jim Abshire, presidentg tstandingp Ronnie Schoolcraft, treasurerg Barry Russell, vice presidentg and Mr. Pearcy, sponsor.

Class Honor Day was upon us and everyone's mind was flooded with memories of the past four years. We proudly received our merits and looked on to our class picnic, our last bangeup gathering. Soon Baccalaureate was over and we were at Commencement, receiving our diplomas. When we began our four-year excursion, it had seemed an impossibly long road, but now when it is over it seems to have been impossibly short. Though our speaker hinted that we should strive on to greater goals, in our hearts we felt that we had lived our greatest days in Martinsville High School.

Yutmeyer Shirley Zimmerman David Zoller Freshmen Meet Challenge Entering into the bustling life of high school this year for the first time, the freshmen were one of the most active classes. Although they faced many new problems, they were anxious to learn and advance. Many members of this class engaged in sports, and several joined the various clubs. ' With help from their counselor and teachers, each freshman made out his schedule and be- gan the work of preparing himself for the role of wage earner and community citizen. All these activities and many more added to the development of the social enjoyment and scholastic life at MHS. , Chosen as officers were Becky Whetsine, treasurerg Judy Dillon, secretary, Jim Oakley, vice presidentg John Wright, president. .gfeiltlnell Carol Ann Akers, Kenneth Al- bertson, Ronald Allee, Gladys An- derson, Brenda Arney, Cam Arn- old, Connie Asher.

Many boys were members of the Jr. High basket- ball team, while the girls sat on the sidelines and cheered them on. Ev- eryone kept just as busy as he could, and finally, the time came when each one went to be counseled concerning the subjects he wished to take as a freshman. The year drew to an end, and the eighth graders looked hope- fully forward to the next year and high school. Seeking advice from Mr, Elledge are Dee Ann Evans and Virginia Doom.
