Over 300 students and a couple dozen teachers, adminis- trators, aids each spent, on the average, 175 school days functioning in the MHS environment. No one, two, group or crowd of people could have formed identical impressions of the year; but each have memories, distinct and vague, of this time, this place. RIGHT: Art student Robin studies an early spring afternoon. First semester exams brought with them an unfortunate set of cir- cumstances. ABOVE: Larry gives Darlene a lift during their free time on an exam day. LOWER RIGHT: While students without scheduled tests killed time in the gym, others, like Jeff, battled through Biology I exams. 4 TOP: Snowflakes keep falling on Vicki’s and Colleen’s head. BOTTOM: Convos are a good time for private meditations. TOP: A bright wintery morning floods the sec- ond floor as Jill climbs the stairs.

BELOW: Sitting out with a pulled ligament, Tom quietly watches a practice. Come on. You can’t fool a Snake Dance veteran like Susie. It’s “crazy hat day,” and juniors give out with their spirit in the hall. Cheerleaders lead the invigorating, weaving Snake Dance through the town on a chilly autumn night, picking up spirit everywhere. OUR SPIRIT Gonna tear ’em up! Gonna tear ’em up! This one-liner (inspired by Coach Neal) and others caught on as themes for “booster” weeks. Pep sessions, filled by club skits, testi- monials by team members, chants, and short-lived presenta- tions of the spirit stick, climaxed the weeks. Students rode the spirit wave when it was highest, especially during the beginning winning streak, but as the season played out, so did the support and sportsmanship of many MHS fans. Tools of “Hoosier Hysteria”, the cheerleaders, hard- working teams, dedicated coaches, and an interested community in basketball’s favorite state, were always there. Enthusiasm from the student body wasn't always there-and enthusiasm’s the catalyst for that basketball magic called SPIRIT. 7 Connie earned the Commerce and Betty Crocker Awards. Boys’ and Girls’ State delegates. Curt and Kris, share their souveniers with Mr. Bush. 8 TIMES UNION AWARDS: R. Schwenk-Science;Claassen-Latin;Susan Zent-English; Hoffcr-Social Studies; T.

SECOND ROW: Manwaring, S. Boggs, Hoskins. HONORS CONFERRED ON MHS STUDENTS Beginning early May, students began murmuring about who might be awarded honors during a special convocation (whenever it might be). Many gained recognition for out- standing work. Mr. Peterson and Mrs. Shoemaker received a box of candy and a cheer for their continuing courtesy. Jane Ettin- ger attended a Presidential Classroom for Young Americans and was County DAR winner. She also received the Read- ers’ Digest Award. Student and faculty generously aided the Bloodmobile program. Mr. Welch, Mr. Holcslaw, and Marj admire Red Cross award certificates. Band officers Bob and Jane received the director s baton and the John Philip Sousa award and merit blanket, respectively, at the Spring Concert. Golden M winners Susie and Keith pose with their trophies. COURTESY COURT-FRONT ROW: Romine, P. Hurd, Horn, Blalock. SECOND ROW: Teel, Alber, Welbom, Hunter. Fair Queen Candidate was Suzy.

RAVE REACTIONS TO “REST ASSURED” Other club members working backstage lend helping hands to beautician, Sandy. Over 20 students participated in the production. Awaiting word from “above”, Mr. Bcarss has directors’jitters. “EEhhhhhhhhh!! He is dead! Mr. Morlock’s dead!” rang out in the speech and dramatic club's production of “Rest Assured,” the story of a money-minded fussbudget who was bombarded by his conscious. Student director Kris Hoffer aided in the four week rehearsal along with stage hands and make-up crew and prompter. Actors not pictured were Carolyn Boggs, Marj Hanes, Alan Welch, Rocky Reed, and Becka Larrew. Curt (Luigi) and his angelic wife, Eileen, are reunited.

Susie Zent and Curt Ousley. TOM AND JACE RULE HOMECOMING Giant white pillars sprouted under the tender care of varsity cheerleaders and student council members. Buzzing homerooms voted upon the candidates. “Theme from Romeo and Juliet” opened the presentation of Mentone’s Hoosier Hysteria. Diamond drops, reflected from the center fountain, greeted the glowing representatives as they mounted the stairs to their places in the balcony scene. Scarlet flowers and a sparkling tiara greeted Queen Janet. Heavy velvet was King Tom’s crown of royalty. The honor of homecoming rested upon them and their hand- some court for the moment. Fans, from Northfield and Mentone, then streamed out of the over-capacity crowd and onto the stage. Homecoming escorts carri edoff breakable props as the queen and prin- cesses posed for pictures, then retreated to the Pep Club’s bleachers. The 1970 Mentone Homecoming was a night to remem- ber. Junior representative, Debi Hiers, 1st runner-up. Freshman representative, Cheryl Melton, 2nd runner-up. Sophomore representative, Koni Melton, 3rd runner-up. QUEEN SUZY After a week of strenuous campaigning, the four candi- dates vieing for the title of Yearbook Queen climaxed the close contest by attending a dance in their honor. Yearbook sponsor Mr. Irwin crowned senior candidate Suzy Shirey queen. Suzy and her court pose during the dance at the Youth PaviUion. 13 A transformed stage holds the Turnabouts from Indianapolis. Queen Susan and King Kent enjoy their honor. PRESENTING: THE IMPOSSIBLE DREAM The Turnabout’s trumpet beat set the style for the 1969- 70 Prom entitled “The Impossible Dream.” Couples danced under a star-spangled “sky.” Former royalty, Dennis and Helen Meyer crowned the newly selected Prom King Kent Hepler and Queen Suzan Zent. A well-attended after-Prom was held at Wabash with the U.S. Male providing contemporary rhythm. Even at 2:00 a.m. party-goers still had enough life left in them to enjoy the dancing and variety of food. 14 Sophomore girls help behind the refreshment table, a very popular place. “Theme from Romeo and Juliet” drew the most couples onto the floor. Posing for a memory, Gary and Carolyn receive the photographer’s assistance. 15 LEFT SIDE-FRONT ROW: Kathy Ncllans, Kent Hepler, Virginia Bruner, Tom Scott, Micky Hoover, Curtis Ousley, Doris Truex, Rick Stavedahl.

SIXTY-SEVEN ACCEPT DIPLOMAS Kim and Keith await their placement in line. Graduation exercises and practice brought seniors to a sudden realization that college, marriage, the service, or “That Job” was very close. There was the usual amount of sentimentality but nervousness prevailed as hard-to-find employment was sought and the not-so-distant future be- came more of a threat. Commencement speaker June Erwin who spoke on the “Generation Gap” was preceded by addresses from the valedictorian Jane Ettinger and salutatorian Keith Remy. 17 Cobwebs are hurriedly swept from his mind as each student realizes it’s the start of a new day at M.H.S. The rustling of pages noisily brings each class to order. Homework assignments are torn out of workbooks. The lonely steps of the office clerk are the only sounds in the hall as absentee slips are picked up and announce- ments are passed out from room to room. Upon opening the band room door the steps are immediately forgotten as the music fills the air. The numerous instruments led with the drums’ beat are breaking the silence in harmony. Working minds keep functioning as the tapping adding machines, clicking typewriters, and swishing sliderules fol- low their manipulators’ tempo. As the day grows older, whining oscillators, excitement over a successful experiment and the whoosh of an ignited Bunsen burner add a soundtrack to its log of accomplish- ments. But sometimes, teachers prefer to hope often, some- thing sparks. “Education” is not only pounded into but ab- sorbed into the brain. Sound waves travel through the mind, transmitting bits of information which ignite. Then the only sound waves that leave the brain are in the form of questions, the tools of learning. All of these combined are THE SOUNDS OF LEARNING COMMUNICATION’S Expression starts with the indi- vidual. ABOVE: Larry strives for the “right” nose. BELOW: Kris could feel mighty lonely. 20 DIFFERENT FORMS Communication through art forms became the goal of Mrs. Finney’s two high school art classes. Students pro- jected their talents through work in paper mache con- struction. They were continually cutting-up with their cut paper projects and developing into the study of potatoe block printing. A nervous “Hello, my name is ... ” was the first big step for beginning speech students. Their assignments in- cluded, T.V. commercials, visual aids, and informative speeches. For students who wanted to put their ideas into practice there was the advanced speech and drama class. They not only learned more about the art of speaking, drama students provided programs for the student body and the reading club. Susan Romine attended a pre-college institute on speech and hearing therapy at Purdue. She was sponsored by the Psi Iota Xi. The three English teachers combined forces in making rigorous well-rounded classes. American, English, and 20th Century novels were read in as well as out of class. Also, many contemporary and classic plays were read and papers written on them. Mr. McClure made a change with book reports by assigning complicated 1500-word precises. Creative writing was done in all the English classes. Mrs. Hoke supplied each senior English student with a personal jt,. folder to keep their work in. Beginning Latin students attended enjoyable classes when Mr. McClure introduced Latin Bingo, exercises at the board and the new use of workbooks along with language, the students studied Roman customs and traditions. Chris Miner and Debbie Smythe composed the Latin II class which met during activity periods. Spanish 1 and II classes were unique in the sense that Mr. Bazzini used more than a textbook. Reciting sentences, using picture cards and film strips added to the visual aids while the use of a tape recorder or record player served the purpose of hearing the syllables in Spanish. Many masterpieces come suddenly. ‘Pictures make learning Spanish easier,” say Mollie and Reid. 21 BUSINESS ADDS SECRETARIAL COURSE LEFT COLUMN: Hibbs, Shirey, Peters, Long, Murphy, Smythc. RIGHT COLUMN: Truex, Wiard. Foreman, Shortz, Decker, Sisk, Mrs. Romine. A new course, clerical practice, was offered in the business department. This was a finishing course in secre- tarial skills. Ten girls enrolled and each had the opportunity to work with adding, typing, duplicating, and calculating machines, and filing. For practical experience, each student acted as secretary to three teachers. “Assets-liabilities + proprietorship” and other prin- ciples of bookkeeping composed the study materials for both beginning and advanced bookkeeping classes. The two first-year classes tackled two practice sets and were intro- duced to the basics of data processing. The advanced class completed three sets and worked with data processing in more depth, highlighting the year with a tour of Warsaw’s data processing center. Many films were shown to more easily explain the dif- ferent types of procedures in general business. Students were briefly introduced to the field of economics by study- ing micro-economics. Two workbooks besides the basic text were used. Business law students studied basic background of pub- lic law and applied their knowledge by working on case problems and in workbooks. Second semester students learned how the international and U.S. economic structure worked. They also had a special course on income tax. The words “Ready? Begin”, the click of a stop-watch, and a sometimes unexpected “STOP”, were the sounds us- ually emitted from the two Typing 1 classes. After the key- board had been mastered, they drilled for building ac- curacy and speed. Shorthand students used the Gregg method and, after memorizing all those squiggly lines, they worked for speed improvement, transcription, and theory. Receptionists Debbie and Vicki copy masters on the new duplicator. While on tour of Warsaw Community High School’s data processing section. Peg tries her hand at the computer. 22 COURSES RELATE TO DAILY LIVES Three different and unique classes were offered to se- niors in government and psychology. Mr. Bearss added his own personal touch to the agenda by using his own notes for government and relating personal interviews with stu- dents to the different terms in psychology. Mr. Irwin con- ducted a fourth period class with current events, Ouija boards, and IQ tests. Mr. Welch’s sixth period was the time for student senates and controversial discussion. Ever heard of a history crossword puzzle? Mr. McClure’s world history classes worked one each semester as a final exam. They also memorized portions of the Declaration of Independence. All the history classes placed emphasis on re- lating past happenings to the present and on following cur- rent events. Sheriff Liz swears in Dale for a government class mock trial. Silence, please. Deneice and Jim are trying to coax the Ouija to speak during a psychology experiment on extra sensory perception. In another experiment. Dale clocks John through a trial-and-crror maze. 23 NEW EQUIPMENT FOR SCIENCE; NEW Chemistry student. Bob, takes a peck thru the department’s new spectroscope. Taking it with a grin, Richard watches John correct his plot of a function. 24 TRIG COURSE IN MATH This “fall-away” body helps Janeen and Luanne learn vital organs. John studies the graph of a sound wave on the oscilloscope. Juniors or Seniors were taught a new math course this year by Mr. Homburg. Trigonometry and solid geometry, a semester devoted to each, were both new and challenging. Trig introduced students to a new circular meaning approach to coordinate systems. Geometry classes, also taught by Mr. Homburg, learned and memorized postulates and theorems that helped in execution of proofs and equations. They also worked with geometric figures and touched on three- dimensional graphs. Functions, relations, quadratic and graphic equations were topics of discussion and extra work in Mr. Hontburg's algebra classes. Refresher and business math reviewed basic material and applied it to practical problems. The advanced math, taught by Mr. Hurd, squeezed their brains during ill-fated last period to grasp the meaning of analytical geometry, func- tionals, metrices, calculus and complex numbers. They also studied probability which was perhaps the most interesting because, this way, the students were able to figure their grades ahead of time. Harp-like tones in the physics room still didn't con- vince those students it was heaven. In studying wave motion they performed experiments with tuning forks and ripple tanks. A new attraction in the physics lab was the purchase of a laser. Chemistry students took on special assignments this year by contributing projects for the Science Fair. Class- room assignments were combined with spectroscope (identifying wave lengths by color) experiments. First semester anatomy students explored the opportu- nities of a promising future in medicine while visiting the l.U. Medical Center. Back in the classroom they studied details on the skeleton and torso. Some brave souls drew blood and checked their blood types. Students got practical experience by disecting fetal pigs. It’s not a snack; Marj and Janet arc finding milk’s specific gravity. 25 EXPERIENCE TEACHES BUILDING BODY AND SKILLS BY DOING— Basic Training skills are enjoyed as frosh P.E. boys do the popular “stomper. 26 PRACTICAL EDUCATION A 1970 Chevy played a vital role in aiding the thirty students in driver education classes. With a bottle of tran- quillizers in hand, Mr. Neal supervised students through six hours of driving and thirty hours of required classroom in- struction. Basic fundamentals were practiced and mastered but the main goal of the class was to keep the car on the road. Instructor Neal mentioned that some students tried to lighten the mailman’s load. Physical education classes were very active. Students participated in baseball, volleyball, basketball and tumbling. Mr. Neal’s goal was for his classes to average above the National Norms on the PRESIDENT’S Physical Fitness Test. Anxious, starry-eyed, fourth-year-home-ec girls spent the year planning such things as their weddings and home furnishings. Child development and care dominated the course for juniors and sophomores, while freshmen spent the year preparing food and sewing clothes. Mrs. Carpenter was given a silver tray by her senior home-ec girls when she retired at the end of the first se- mester. Miss Azpell then took over and continued teaching the students to become better cooks, wives, and mothers of the future. Unknown to Kim, Connie adds that certain something. A special Valentine’s Day cake comes from Norma’s oven. 27 AUTO MAINTENANCE ROUNDS VOCATIONS An auto mechanics’ quartet of Brant, Jim, Jerry, and Jeff try to keep their engine in tune. Mentone High School expanded its vocational schedule by adding to its curriculum a comprehensive auto mech- anics course. An old converted bus shed was the site of this auto- motive, paint, metal, welding, and electrical shop which in- cluded the latest available equipment. Mr. Richard Rals- ton, the automotive instructor was most interested in teaching the boys minor repair and tune-up work. He be- lieved these skills to be most essential in becoming a well- rounded mechanic. The building in which the boys worked was equipped with every tool imaginable, from a small wrench or screwdriver to a $750 air compressor. Freslunen took drafting I the first semester and wood- working I the second semester. The sophomores made use of the new metal and electrical shop. They had Metals I the first semester and Beginning Electricity the second. The ju- niors and seniors had a combined class of advanced shop, working on a schedule including Woodworking II, Drafting II and Metalworking II. After arrival at school, building trades students boarded another bus that took them to a lot a half mile east of Ak- ron on county road 1000. Class time lasted for the first three periods of the day. Workers laid foundation, com- pleted wiring and plumbing, and put in windows-every- thing related to house construction except finish the ceil- ings which were done by contractors from Silver Lake. Shortly before noon the class returned to Mentone and Ak- ron boys worked the remaining three periods of the day. 28 Drafting students John and Terry concentrate on producing sharp and exact drawings. ACTIVE MUSICIANS ATTAIN HONORS Seventy band members filled the morning air with strains of music from ‘warm-ups’ to practice for marching shows For improvement on the individual level, students gave up one activity period or half a study hall a week for personal lessons. The highlight of their band career for the seniors was receiving their sweaters in December of’69. Along with marching shows, the band was active performing concert music for the tours to different schools and the annual spring concert. The choral department was equally busy during the school year with two choral concerts in the spring, contest practice for the small groups and caroling at the nursing homes at Christmas. State contest vocal soloist Kris helps deck the gym for Christmas. Colored bulbs and candles create the Christmas concert’s atmosphere. 30 BELOW-Stage Band-1 RONT ROW: Romine Hoffcr, Zcnt, Igo, Hudson. SECOND ROW: Wise Ettinger THIRD Welch, Miner, Tibbets.

This is fol- lowed by a round of voting and careful tallies. Nominees re- enter and the newly elected president coyly blushes as he takes command. After remaining offices are filled, presi- dents sight goals and aims of the club before the meeting adjourns. Other business consists of appointing committees, discussing dues, planning field trips and suggesting work projects. In many cases standing committees sit, dues are only discussed, field trips float in the planning stages and work projects become party projects. But not every club suc- cumbs to these illnesses. A number of clubs send delegates to state conventions and workshops. The procedes from some activities go to causes such as the Heart Fund and Riley Hospital. More school-minded clubs promoted ac- tivities that encourage student and teacher participation. Every club member is labeled in volcanic terms-active or inactive. The active do everything from giving up a Sunday afternoon for knocking on doors to selling tickets for a puppy raffle. There are fish frys, breakfasts, penny fairs, car washes, and people are forever selling cake tickets and candy bars. Whatever the stimulation, be it awards at the end of the year, recognition, or just the satisfaction of a job well done, or how trivial the assignment or how small the result, the important thing is that the student is there, participating. All of these combined are THE SOUNDS OF INVOLVEMENT COUNCIL PROMOTES STUDENT INTEREST In their role as a go-between, the student council not only tried to represent the students’ feelings but sponsored activities to promote participation and raise money. They held a mid-semester breakfast, cake sales, and a fish fry. They also sponsored Homecoming, and a contest for the Mermaid Festival candidate. The council sent Curt Ousley and Bob Romine to Student Leadership Institute at Indiana University for a week last summer. Janeen Newcomb, Barb Holcslaw, Bob Bowerman, and Curtis Ousley represented M.H.S. at the Indiana State Medical Association's Hoosier Teen Health Happening at Indianapolis. These students heard and reported on out- standing speakers on the subjects of drug abuse, alcohol, sex, tobacco, traffic safety and mental health. Mr. Peterson and Kim react to the icy, slimy fish.

The annual tapping ceremony followed by a banquet in May were main events of the National Honor Society. Along with the yearbook staff, they sponsored a bribe breakfast and promoted student participation in the Ko- sciusko County Blood Bank. This club also became in- volved in international affairs when they sent letters to a number of neutral ambassadors requesting information on “Missing” American P.O.W.’s of the Vietnamese conflict. 35 PUBLICATIONS BECOME BIG BUSINESS Editor, Rudy, and his assistant, John, collaborate on headlines. One word could sunt up the entire year for the BULL- DOG staff .. . ACTIVITY. During summer months the editor. Jane Ettinger, and photographer, Cathy Decker, spent two laborious weeks at Ball State University Journal- ism Workshop. The group, that had a tendency to shrink in mid-year, worked on money-making projects such as a fish fry, bake sales, two skits, two penny fairs, a poster contest, and Queen of the Yearbook. In their spare time they also attended school and put out a yearbook. Mentonette editor, G. Rudolf Schwenk, kept his staff busy trying to complete assignments and editing a paper every two weeks.

THEIR AIMS: ENTERTAIN AND SERVE The donkey basketball game was paramount in the agenda of the Lettermen's Club, which had a membership of twenty-five guys. With the money taken in, they went to dinner and watched a professional basketball game. Helping elementary and high school teachers with film presentations seemed to be the best way possible to aid the school for the Projectionist Club. They also kept projectors in top running condition and constructed a Titanic Trojan horse for an original pep session skit. Donating their free time, projectionist club members, Gary and Tim, show a film for the kindergarten. HOLIDAY BALL CLIMAXES BUSY YEAR SSS COURT: Patti, LuAnn, Becka. Queen Joyce, Liz, Susie, and Kim. Former queen, Josie Kelly, crowns Joyce 1970 Sunshine Queen. 38 One of the most active clubs was Sunshine. The society’s fifty-five members kept up a near-constant pace of activity with work on cake, candy, and magazine sales. They also sold tickets for a puppy raffle and peddled “Spook Insur- ance” at Halloween time. The money from these projects formed a donation to Riley Children’s Hospital in Indian- apolis. Highlighting the year were the Ideal Ladies Banquet and the annual Christmas Dance featuring the coronation of the Sunshine Queen. Chris impersonates the “ghost of Christmas Past to scare Eileen. TROUPERS STAGE TWO PRODUCTIONS M.H.S. students got an extra treat from the Speech and Dramatics Club at Christmas time when they presented “Pop Reads the Christmas Carol.” They also put on a come- dy in the Spring entitled “Rest Assured.” Members not only worked within the club but participated in outside ac- tivities such as, programs for area clubs, church groups and school convocations, to gain points for recognition.

BOOSTERS SPARK BULLDOG FEVER Who was that in the cool green vests with all the school spirit?” It was Mentone’s Pep Club. The block learned new yells and revamped old ones, utilizing activity periods and after school time for practices. Champ, a role filled by various enthusiastic club members, made appearances at the home games and tourneys. The varsity cheerleaders attended Firebird Cheerleading Camp at Alma, Michigan for a week of learning cheers, chants and tumbling last summer. Their training produced the foundation for school spirit and good sportsmanship. B-TEAM CHEERLEADERS: Gibblc, Horn. Shirley, and Jameson. VARSITY CHEERLEADERS: S. Boggs, Sisk, A.

Thirteen girls representing all four classes composed a harmonious effect in barbershop music. Having to take on four new members out of a group of five, the barbershop boys spent the main part of the year placing and learning their new parts. The new group, an all-class triple trio, began studying three-part girls’ music. The ten girls attended contest and performed at service clubs and the music concerts. Like a Pied Piper, pep band music summoned students to the gym each pep session. Besides supplying the school song, they helped start the basketball season by leading the Snake Dance at the pep rally. The pep band adds the beat to pep sessions.

A mothers’ tea and the Heart Fund Drive were just two examples of ways to help the com- munity better understand the medical profession. Forty- two girls worked for a standard goal: to gain knowledge in the field of nursing. Badminton and volleyball tourneys and basketball games were the main activities of the vigorous Girls’ Athletic As- sociation. The accumulation of individual points was the goal of this club. Selling striped Mentone T-shirts proved a unique and successful money-making project. To help individuals improve personal, family, and com- munity living, now and in the future, was the goal of the Future Homemakers of America. Fifty members actively participated in caroling at Christmas, selling cookbooks and attending conventions. An FNC Christmas cluster for the hospital is mounted by Chris. 44 I RONT ROW: Davis, Larrcw, Ring, Walters. Teel, Janet Wiard. Mrs. Finney.

Introducing a new idea, Mr. Bazzini planned to sponsor a number of students on a trip to Europe in the summer. While there, he and his crew plan to visit five different countries, learning about European history, art, and civilization. The first stop will be Madrid, of course. Roman oriented thoughts motivated the activities of the Latin Club throughout the year. A slave day, Latin banquet, and a program at Talma to promote this ancient language dominated the schedule for the club during the year. The novelty of this year's club was rings and pins for all senior members. BELOW: The Latin Club’s biggest project was an authentic banquet. LEFT: Slaves, Mike and Dawn, pay homage to older Roman, Car- men. 46 FT A ELVES TREAT TEACHERS TO TEA The Future Teachers of America, seventy-five members strong, were involved in a host of activities, including the “Elf Week” climaxed by a Teachers’ Tea, a field trip to the state FTA convention, and a day of helping new kinder- garteners. A little-known facet of FTA was exploratory teaching. Only for senior members, this course gave actual teaching experience to students as they instructed elementary classes. “Shhh” could have been the Librarian Club’s motto. The main purpose of this small group was to keep the library in order and to provide students with a quiet place to study. They sold popular and classic paperbacks to fill their treasury. An early fall trip to the libraries at Manchester and Grace Colleges gave the members a view of more com- plicated and complete systems for utilizing books. LIBRARI ANS-FRONT ROW: Landis. Davis, Mrs. Wilhelm, Teel, Chamberlin. BACK ROW: Bolin, Larrew, Montcl, Smythe, C'hris- man, Heisler, Ring, Rogers, Blalock. FTA members topped the year by becoming the teachers’ elves. LIT AND SCIENCE EXTEND CLASSROOM Mad scientist Kent, tidies up before brewing spirit for a pep session. Science students banded together to explore their inter- ests in that field by giving demonstrations to elementary students and watching filmstrips. They utilized a fizzing concoction in their pep session skit that startled even the participants. Literary reflections proved domineering as the Literature Club, which boasted a membership of twenty-eight, strug- gled through its third year. The activities sponsored by this year’s club included a movie at the Youth League Pavillion and perusal of a collection by Edgar Allan Poe. SCIENCE CLUB-FRONT ROW: J. Smith, Newcomb. R.

The umpire’s “Play ball initiates the first pitch. The batter’s wary eyes are fixed upon the mighty missile until the very end—the connection. The pitcher’s keen vision is concentrated on the catcher’s mitt. The gun sounds and the determined cindermen race to- ward their destination—a thin string. Graceful movements of the coordinated jumper characterizes the leap over the bar. The whistle blows. The motivated harriers set a moder- ate pace for the long distance run. They give their all for the victory. The run of wins can boost the spirit to an all-time high, while losses merely dampen it. After winning three con- secutive games, the Bulldogs meet their ultimate test by playing the state’s top team. Even though it marks up a de- feat, the evaluations of their skills prove to be very profit- able. The continuous determination isn’t halted by losses, various injuries, low morale, adjustments to a new coach and gloomy predictions. Each player’s body absorbs thought and concentration, condensing them into the will to win-the team’s will to win the school’s united will to win. All these combined are THE SOUNDS OF COMPETITION HI Norsemen watch painfully as Leroy tries for two. Student managers, Gary and David, were coaches’ right-hand men. BULLDOGS REFUSE TO TOSS IN TOWEL The 1969-70 varsity basketball team, coached by Jerry Neal, completed a frustrating 5-16 slate. Seniors dominate the team and more than once came within several points of winning a very close game. The best all around games were with Northwood and North Manchester. The battling Bull- dogs never threw in the towel. This determination showed during the North Manchester game when they chalked up a hitting percentage of 65% from the charity stripe, while their opponents made only 23%. Junior center, Ken Anglin, put bright coloring in the campaigns by being the Bulldog’s leading scorer, as well as being the best rebounder. Rick Stavedahl, senior guard, topped the club in free throws and shooting. Eight seniors finished their basketball career at M.H.S. There were also three sophomores, Gary Welborn, Reed Bowser, and Tim Smith, who added new dimensions to the team. Gary proved to be the spark that ignited the Bull- dogs' desire to win in the last half of the season. The Bull- dogs surpassed a long-standing record when they lost thir- teen consecutive varsity basketball games. The Bulldogs traveled to Nappanee for the holiday tourney and Warsaw for the sectional.

BELOW: Gary seems to be stopping traffic and giving Mark the “go-ahead.” B-team finished with a record almost identical to the varsity’s with a slate of 5-15. The squad was led by sophomores and juniors at the beginning of the year. However, after moving up three sophomores to the varsity team, two freshmen, Tom Alber and Gary Peters, proved to be big assets. The B-team participated in a Holiday Tourney at Triton and in the consolation game beat Concord. The hard-working boys had 9 games slip through their fingers by a total of 21 points. The top of the club in rebounding, free throws, and field goaling percentages was Reed Bowser.

The Bulldogs barely squeezed passed the Flyers with the final scores of 10-9 and 5-4. The two cunning pitchers were Reid Bowser and Brett Miner respectively. Mentone had a losing season, but, according to the coach, the team learned fundamentals and underclassmen gained much knowledge which will help them in the future. With a late afternoon sun in his eyes, the new coach criticizes strategy. BASEBALL TFAM -FRONT ROW : Reed, T. Stavedahl, Miller, Shoemaker, Hunter, Alber, Sccrist.

The entire team will be back next year with the exception of two seniors. This experience will lay the core for the underclassmen in the next squad.

The basketball program involved three student and one faculty teams, including altogether over thirty people. Each team participated in several games, ending their season with a tourney. Tim Peffley’s team took the top honors in it. Volleyball, in its second year, functioned with six teams. After three regular season games, a single-elimination tour- nament was played. Rick Stavedahl’s team emerged victorious in the evenly-matched final contest. Opening night resulted a crucial loss to Kent Hepler’s team as he sprained his ankle, disabling him for the season. In the late spring an extra in the intramural program planned was ping-pong. Faculty team members follow Rusty's toss. Basketball team captains were R. Schwenk, T.

They ended the season with a 9-5 record, while the county champions still retained their title. Brett Miner, low medalist and most valuable player, led the team. 1969-70 track season was record-breaking for the two senior lettermen. Keith Remy finished an outstanding sea- son with the breaking of the old 880 record with his 4:42.3. He was defeated only once-at the sectional. Another high- light involved Jay Smith breaking the pole-vaulting record with 11’ 3”. A great amount of team effort was shown by the entire team throughout the season.

The clanging of the first bell brings about shuffling feet, grumbles over forgotten assignments, and the click of pens. Activity period causes a noisy change in the morning schedule. Presidents hurriedly call the clubs to order and frantic junior class meetings prevail until the 11:00 bell sounds the automatic adjournment. Growling stomachs . . . clattering silverware ... the crunch of saltines underfoot . . . trickling milk . .. friendly conversation amid the munching of celery .. . and splash from a water fountain mark the midday break. The resumption of afternoon classes begins with mean- ingless chatter . .. then, stern reprimands . . . conflicting opinions . . . silent tension . . . perhaps, an exchange of ideas . . . and discussion cut short at the period’s end. Congregating, pairing off, or pushing along through the muddled halls, each student finds his place, whether it be fourth seat to the left second row or top of the class. Sighs of relief or regret follow the echo of the final bell, and the last farewell ends this day at school. All of these combined are THE SOUNDS OF INDIVIDUALS Tippecanoe Valley School Corporation’s 1969-70 board members are Dr. Donald Van Gilder, Ralph Davis, Dr. O. L.

The staff at Mentone was under the direction of Mr. Holcslaw. He was aided in the task of educating students by Mr. Welch and the faculty. In turn, Mrs. Shoemaker, study hall clerk, brought student records up to date. Mrs. Romine balanced the books, sent announcements, and instructed of- fice receptionists. Dividing the day between Talma and Mentone, Mrs. Wilhelm used her time to keep the library in order.

Being cap- tain of a boat called “Dixie” at Winona Lake held the at- tention of Mr. Bearss, while energy-consuming jobs, mow- ing highway lawns to hauling milk, were the time-consum- ing tasks of Mr. Huffman. These two faculty members, along with the remaining veterans, welcomed several newcomers this past year. Mr. Ralston. Mr. Creighton, and Mr. Neal walked the halls of MHS for the first time bringing with them new ideas and enthusiasm.

ABOVE: Cooking staff consisting of Mrs. Linn, Mrs. Holsclaw, Mrs. Zolman, Mrs. I'awley, and Mrs. Gibble provide nourishing meals. The Mentone cooking staff served approximately 500 grade and high school students daily and special meals were prepared for holidays. Foodstuffs were purchased mainly through saleshouses, government issue, and local stores. Building maintenance kept the five janitors busy. Charles Holloway headed the custodial staff, while working part- time at irregular shifts were Mrs. Ladson and Mary Johnson after school; Mrs. George Reed and Walter Smith nights. Through their efforts the building was kept in good shape. In addition to transporting students to and from school, some bus drivers drove fan buses to athletic events, on field trips, and in the summer months, transported band members to marching engagements. Senior men offered unique poses and expressions. Wouldn’t you like to ride in Bob’s beautiful balloon? FINALLY OH ALREADY TRADITIONS MARK Sandals and cutoffs topped by angora sweaters or white tuxes and bowties began the long pull to graduation as Se- niors sat for senior pictures. These upperclassmen kept busy striving to reach academic goals and investigating different careers, and various colleges. Seniors were easily distinguish- able in the school crowd by their black T-shirts, award sweaters, or the traditional painted cords. Measurement for caps and gowns and ordering announcements brought them to the realization that being a senior could be ex- pensive. Being a senior student also consumed much precious time. Term papers had to be written, regular assignments had to be kept up, and social activities rounded out the busy year. Guiding the class were Mr. Huffman and Mr. Welch. Trophies rewarded teamwork. Sweaters rewarded personal effort. THEIR LAST YEAR United Susie, Leroy, Jay, and Tanya lead the class of ’70. 71 Exchanging senior pictures is an M.H.S. tradition. Doris, Teresa, Joy- ce, and Kent are no exceptions to the rule.

Crocheting rounds a guy out. . . right Forrest? How about a wash? This was but one of the juniors’ slo- gans. Raising money for a junior-senior prom required such projects as selling jumbo red appl« , staging a Harlem Satel- lite exhibition game, sponsoring an' autumn car wash and fish fry. Store managers Bill Hoover, Ruth Hoffer, and Dave Meredith reported high sales from basketball game concessions attraction. Class officers tabulated all income, and guided their class in selecting class colors and motto. Juniors prided themselves on school spirit. They won first possession of the sought-after spirit stick with their zealous team backing. Mr. Homburg and Mr. Neal were their class sponsors. “Quick, put the dime in now, Dave,’ ujges Bob. 79 Denice Acton Marcella Allen Kathy Allmon Gerry Baber Eddy Baker Cindy Baum Rickie Baum Teresa Billingsley Harold Boggs Bill Bowerman Reid Bowser Cathy Boyer Cheryl Boyer Deanna Decker Debbie DeCent Martha Egolf Charlene Ellis Robbie Engle Jerry Gadson Dale Girouard Faith Goshert Rick Grass Don Greer Debbie Hackworth Tim Harman Diana Hill Dixie Hively Mollie Hoffer Barbara Holcslaw Vickie Horn Ricky Howard Beth Jamison Charlotte Jones David Kotterman Larry Landis James Lewis Terry Lewis John Lowman Karen McEadden Ricky McLaughlin John McQueary Bennie Meade Joe Mikel Tom Mikel Koni Melton LuAnn Miller Chris Miner Marcia Nelson Dennis Norris Debra Owens Rodney Owens Laura Parks Tim Peffley Charla Putterbaugh John Rensbergcr Jerry Richardson Randy Roberts James Rose Wesley Sexton Steve Shand Ralph Shepherd Alan Sliortz Leroy Shotts Terry Sinclair Tim Smith Gary Snipes Terry Stavcdahl Alma Waddle Stanley Wall Richard Wallace Gary Wei born John Whetstone Rodney Williams David Wiley Cynthia Wise Jarry Wise Sherry Zcnt Not pictured Colleen Gibble Paula Jones Patty McClone Frances Nyenhuis Debbie Smythe 80 SECOND YEAR STARTS CLIMB FOR PROM Sophomore officers, Vickie, Tim, LuAnn, and Steve, gain experience. Blue or black onyx, white or yellow gold-Chris ponders. Scattered straw at class parties, enjoying each other’s company, and volunteering cakes for funds to begin the long climb toward a successful prom made up a complete year for the sophomore class. Ordering class rings brought about much indecision. After a long discussion, the officers and sponsors, Mr. Ir- win and Mr. Peterson, decided on a choice of differently de- signed rings-round or rectangular. Early spring highlighted the sophomore year when class rings arrived. Class rings are the ultimate goal. t 81 Gary Adams Tom Alber Tom Alvey Willa Amburgy Debra Anglin Lee Barker Anita Blackburn Terri Boardnian Steve Bruner Kathy Bush Jewell Chrisman Dawn Claassen Virgil Cooper Debbie Coplen Sharon Crawl Mike Davis Craig Doran Joyce Dunnuck Betty Ettinger Bobby Francis Myra Gadson Barbara Carman Paul Goshert Melody Grimm Warren Gruenwald Carolyn Hackworth Jacalyn Haist Vickie Hart Mark Heisler Susan Hibschman Phyllis Hittle Nancy Huff Patty Hurd Duran Hurley Nancy Irwin Terry Jacks Micheal Jones Pam Koldyke Pam Kuhn Daw n La Rue Rick Lowery Wanda Marshall Terry McGowen Michelle McQucary Tom Meiser Sherryl Melton Darrel Miller Barbara Morrison Janecn Newcomb Marie Newton Micheal Norton Ivonne Nyenhuis Nina Perkins Gary Peters Cynthia Rickel Jay Robinson Rusty Rowland Tim Schwenk Jeff Shoemaker Diana Sinclair Ralph Slone Cindy Smythe Gary Sponseller Rick Sprong Charles Stavedahl Toni Teel Barbara Tibbets Luanne Utter Creola Vires John Wagner Alan Welch Brad Witham Gary Wyatt Randy Yates Teresa Yazel Not pictured- Ann Phillips Rick Jackson James Meredith 82 FROSH BEGIN TREK TO GRADUATION For the first time in six years, the freshman class did not enter Mentone High totally dumb-founded and bewildered. As eighth-graders they were given their first taste of the upperclassman's life in a limited amount. As ninth-graders they comprised a large percentage in club memberships as the activities were opened to them. The large freshman class has gained over forty new students losing but a few through their journey from grade school to high school. Their sponsors were Mr. Baerss, and Mr. Hurd. New officers, Jewell, Betty, Terri, and Tom, anticipate the future’s challenges. With broom in hand, Gary and Lee await the faculty games end. Homeroom’s a convenient time to pass along bits of wisdom. 83 A YEAR AND A DECADE PASS “And so, my fellow Americans; Ask not what your country can do for you-ask what you can do for your country.” This one sentence from the inaugural address of John Kennedy seemed to be the keynote of this decade. The decade of the sixties brought the passing of many famous people such as General Eisenhower, Adlai Steven- son, Pope John XXI11, Nehru, John Kennedy, Robert Frost, Winston Churchill, Astronauts Grissom, White, Chaffee, Robert Kennedy, Martin Luther King, Ho Chi Minh, James Thurber, Ernest Hemingway, Sam Rayburn. Walt Disney and eight student nurses in Chicago. The decade also saw the birth of many: The Peace Corps, Fisher quints, the Great Society, the Berlin Wall, the Zip Code, thalidomide babies, Laugh-in, drug abuse, heart trans- plants, hijackings, black-outs, and the Beatles. College students went from stuffing VW’s and phone booths to participating in demonstrations. Technology progressed by leaps with the SST, snow- mobiles, the LM, dune buggies, and a walk on the moon. Advances in transportation added to traffic danger. Seat belts, shoulder straps and padded dashes were all made com- pulsory. Plastic chairs, spontaneous talk shows, topless bathing suits and mini skirts were also vogue. The mood of the decade had revolutionary leanings. The youth of the world changed from mere existence to a rec- ognized and sometimes respected minority. The people of the planet realized that problems unno- ticed for years were becoming crises as in the Watts riot, the death of Lake Erie, and the tune-in, turn-on, drop-out theory of the hippies. As the cost of living increased the dollar’s value de- creased. Strikes inconvenienced and endangered many. Along with the police action in Viet Nam, there was a War on Poverty, the Dodge rebellion, Naders’ Raiders and everything from the bomb to the pill was protested. The Mentone community showed few outward changes over the decade. Some new houses, a new drugstore, new shops, a Youth League Pavillion, new house numbers and street signs among other things were added. However, the general atmosphere didn’t change drastically. Students in the high school seemed to become less in- volved in school activities (although many enrolled). A high percentage held full or part-time jobs all year ’round. World and national problems seemed remote. The youth concerned themselves more with the school dress and hair code and the outcome of the May school board election. The board’s early spring decision to consolidate the cor- poration’s two high schools was the student body’s main diversion of the year. It caused a shout in the murmurs of a passing year.
