TH If MIX K 0 II If MISHAWAKA ORE than loo years ago, a few straggling settlers, Wending their weary way along the old St. Ioseph River, became attracted to the spot which is now a modf ern city of about 28,000 inhabitants. It is Mishawaka, which received its name from an Indian princess. the daughter of Elkhart, a Shawnee chief. The meaning of Mishawaka, in the Indian language is Swift Wntcnr, which referred to the river. Before the village was named Mishawaka, however, it was called Izzdffzzza City. 4' In St. Ioseph county, Mishawaka was the hrst city to incorporate. The Iron Works was the first factory built, and it stood Where the Rubber and Woolen Manufactur- ing Company is now located. The main street running east and West, now Lincoln Way or Second Street, orig- inally was named Vistula Road. V Mishawaka, since the earliest days, has been noted lor its strong religious and moral character and its general health. It is now a normal, happy community whose progress along educational lines has marked it as an out- standing city of Indiana.

In order to give their youth the hest possihle training for life, the townspeople, in 1924, erected a new huilding, Mishawaka High school, which is one of the Hnest in the state. Modern science lahoratories, vocational shops, gymnasium, and class rooms with care- fully selected equipment are at the dis- posal of every hoy and girl in the com- munity.

Thus the healthfulness of the body is made possible by our far-reaching system of athletics, the body builder. ff- xx, J -'ig-, Y 4 , 01 THIRTY-THREE the MISKCDDEED Tl-IE MEIVTQRV BUCK OF 1932-1933 Edito ,--1' n-ffm-f ,,A. .... 1 SADORE RosENwAssEu .flsxociatc Editors ......

CLUB F V0K By OTHA RAMSEY ANY basketball fans consider that a team has had a successful season if it has won a majority of the scheduled games. Taking this point of view in looking at the record of M. H. S. in number of games won and lost, one sees that our squad won II and lost 9. This, how- ever, is not a true sportsman's point of view. A real sports lover asks first, did the boys play cleanly and give everything they had to give, then perhaps comes the question of the num- ber of games won and lost. Anv follower of the Cavemen will readily assert that our team played hard, and always tried their best to play cleanly. fAfter all what more can one do, if he tries to do his best?j The team won three and lost four of their conference games coming out in a tie with Riley for third place in the conference standing. Although Mishawaka had only an average team during the last season, loyal supporters may look happily ahead to next year, for nine of the first twelve men will be back with us. l1Then, too, perhaps next year an attack of influenza will not lay siege to the Cavemenls camp, causing the coach to have to start a dif- ferent formation in almost every game. At one time during the season, four out of the first Five were sick. This fact alone would have been enough to discourage many coaches, but not so with Mr. Shake: he merely went about trying to prevent this disease from spreading further and trying to cure the sick players. Coach Shake tried to call off the Riley and Elkhart games, Coach Forbes readily agreed to cancel the game with Riley, but Coach Longfellow of Elkhart refused to cancel that game, saying that the Blue Blazers always played a scheduled game. The Maroons were forced to play this game and were snowed under by the Blue Avalanche 18 to 9. At the beginning of the season, the Maroon squad looked fairly strong, and there was a no- table improvement in their style of basketball up to and including the game with Elkhart. This game apparently was the turning point, for Dame Fortune seemed to desert them for the rest of the season. A noticeable fact of this season was that the squad seemed to play bas- ketball in spurtsg when they won a game on Friday they usually won again on Saturday, and when they lost on Friday they seldom won on Saturday. This is unexplainable except that every team has its off nights, and Mishawaka's seemed always to come together. If On December 2, the Maroons were defeated by a crack Nappanee five, before a capacity crowd, 41-34, in their Hrst game with the Bull Dogs. The offense of both quintets was so fast that the official scorers had to call time out in several instances so that they could ca-teh up OF THIRTY-THREE with the play. The Bull Dogs, taking advantage of the Maroon's peculiar defense, counted most of their points on sleeper set-ups and short shots from around the foul circle. Mishawaka worked a clever short passing attack that left a man open time and again. Un Ianuary 6, in a game that was not decid- ed until the hnal gun, Mishawaka gained sweet revenge from Nappanee in the Bremen barn be- fore a large, peppy crowd, by defeating the Bull Dogs, 35 to 31. The score was knotted ten times with neither quintet holding more than a five point lead at any time. Pepple starred for the losers with five baskets to his credit while Mose Young showed up best for the victors, sinking eight field goals and two foul shots. The game was not rough, but both teams guarded so close- ly that thirty-five personal fouls were called. ll On December 16, in their first N. I. H. S. conference game of the year, the Maroons shat- tered their nine game losing streak with Goshen that began in IQ26 by a brilliant 32 to 22 vic- tory. The crowd which attended this game was one of the largest and peppiest of the year, and fans were amply rewarded for braving the sub- zero weather by seeing a very well played bas- ketball game. Getz led the scoring for the Redskins, while Young and A. Meuninch fairly evenly divided the Maroon scoring. The Shakemen were supe- rior in shooting fouls, sinking eight of fourteen, while Goshen scored only six out of sixteen attempts. ll On February 4, in the second meeting of the season with the Redskins, the Cavemen again upset the Goshenites by a score of 27 to 26. The game went into an overtime period with the score tied 24-24, and was won when Palsce pushed in a field goal with less than half a minute to play. Young made the foul point that assured Mishawaka of victory about one minute before Palsce's spectacular shot. The game was a thriller all the way through with the lead changing time after time, but with neither team able to gain a very large lead. On December 17, Mishawaka gained revenge for the defeat handed her by the South Bend Central football team by trouncing the Bears' basketball team, 24-18, in the Y. M. C. A. ice-f box. The Benders put up a much better fight than was expected, but Mishawaka seemed to have things well under control at all times. The 7 Maroons led at the half, 12-10, but pulled away to a safe lead as the game progressed. If Mishawaka's Cavemen skinned the Central Bears for the second time during the season by a score of 30 to IS in Mishawaka's gym on February 3. After Bykowski, who scored all of Central's points during the first half, was removed early in the second quarter because of four fouls, the outcome of the game was never in doubt. The victory, a conference game, gave Mishawaka a tie with Riley for third place in the standings. C. Meuninchis shot just before the end of the quarter gave the Cavemen a 7 to 6 lead, after the Bears had led almost through- out the first period. ln the second period Mish- awaka chalked up seven points and held Cen- tral scoreless. Although outscored 6 to 3 in the third quarter, the Maroons took turns scoring in the last period to double the Bears' score, 30 to 15. This is the first year in the history of the school that three tournaments have been held here. This year a blind invitational tourney was held in our gym in which Riley of South Bend, Central of South Bend, Nappanee, and Mishawaka participated. Riley defeated Misha- waka in the final game. VThe sectional tournament was held in the Mishawaka gym on March 3 and 4. The Ma- roons were defeated in their hrst game of the tournament by an underestimated squad from Plymouth. The Cavemen led all the way except in the final quarter when the Pilgrims pulled away to a safe lead, the final score being 35-25. Mishawaka led at the half by a score of 19-14, but could not hold the pace in the final quarter. Riley and Plymouth played in the finals of the Mishawaka sectional. The game was very close, but the crippled Plymouth team finally collapsed, and Riley was able to win by the dangerously close score of 34-32. ll The four teams that took part in the regional tournament were Wakarusa, Winamac, Riley, and Rochester. Wakarusa defeated Riley 29-23, in the initial game of the tourney, while VVina- mac defeated Rochester 24-20, in the second game. Wakarusa then met and easily defeated Winamac by the score of 31-21. The defeat of Winamac by Wakarusa came as a surprise to most of the fans, for the Indians were favored as the team that would probably play in the state tournament. 8 THE MISKODEED I-IAII., DEMOSTI-IENES! By CLAUDINE CULI' IRED with ambition, Dcmosthenes in Athens placed pebbles in his mouth and loudly pro- claimed his oratory above the booming waves of the sea to the world. While in Mishawaka High school young Demosthenes, fired with keen interest and delight, pledged to boost their newest organization, the Speech club. W The club, introduced by Mr. Robert Huber, who as teacher of English is a newcomer in Mishawaka, has for its purpose the promotion of interest in and the teaching of the principles of the various speech activities, which include debating, oratory, general speech making, oral reading, and dramatics. Everyone who cares to learn of speech work is given a chance to de- velop his talentsp the aim of the club is to teach all who join, so that any student who has the desire to develop his powers of thinking, who has the desire to develop his personality may, do so by learning the theory of speech making and by actual practice lbefore :i group. W All those debaters who were interested and wished to go attended the Purdue Debate con- ference in December at Lafayette, Indiana, to hear the debate between Notre Dame and Pur- due on the high school debate question, and to hear the discussions by the heads of the eco- nomics department and Engineering school or various phases of the debate subject. At noon speeches were given by the president of Wabash college and by Dean Ralph Dennis, dean of the School of Speech at Northwestern univer- sity. The day was a full one, full of swift and intense consumption of debate principles and fundamentals and full of fun for all who went. It was not long until the debate squad was cut to twenty-one people, it was these twenty- one who took part in the non-decision debate tournament on Saturday, January 7. The Speech club invited schools throughout Indiana to at- tend the tournament at Mishawaka High school, for the purpose of gaining experience for their debaters at a minimum cost. Each debater had the opportunity to debate two times, the topic was the state league question, resolved: That all hydro-electric power in the United States should be owned and operated by the govern- ment. l'A trip through the hydro-electric plant in Mishawaka was an outstanding feature of the day. The debaters saw turbines, dynamos, and electrical equipment about which they would be talking throughout the year. Superintendent P. C. Emmons welcomed the debaters at a rousing banquet luncheon in the cafeteria, and there were short talks by George Beauchamp, president of the Indiana State De- bate league, and Mr. Coyne, the debating coach from Notre Dame. VThe twenty-one persons who took part in the tournament were George Asher, Clem Can- field, Harold Cook, Margaret I-Iambright, UI THIRTY-TII Rlflf Henry Heintzberger, Margaret Kizer, Bill Ma- grane, Charles Mcliinnis, Bill Miller, lames Miller, Eunice Palmer, lsadore Rosenwasser, Eldon Schalliol, Norman Smith, Charles Stine, Iacob Swartz, Clare Verseeg, Iulia Versceg, Wylie Voorheis, lohn Wolf, and Robert Zim- IUCFIHLIII. It was then Mishawalta began to debate with other schools. ln non-decision debates, her op- ponents included H1lll1l110Dd, Wiley of Terre Haute, Huntington Township, anti Plymouth. Then there was a non-decision debate tourna- ment at Bourbon, Indiana. 11011 january 17, the school double debated Concord Township and the following Saturday traveled to Hammond and Washington, East Chicago. By this time the team was picked and lim- ited down to six people, they were Margaret Kizer, Eldon Schalliol, and Wylie Voorheis, who composed the affirmative, and Jacob Swartz, John Wolf and Henry Heintzberger, who made up the negative. l1On Ianuary 27. the team traveled to North- side of Fort Wayne for two double debates. After staying all night, they contested the state champions of Churubusco the next day in a double debate. That afternoon saw them in Huntington for another double debate. They spent the evening at Manchester college where they had dinner. lt was a wonderful trip for all. 9 On Ianuary 24, there was a debate with Elk- hart's negative and the following day with their affirmative. Warsaw brought the non-decision debates to an end. Mishawaka's team was then ready to take part in tournament debates: they had their first judge's decision on February 2, when Mr- Coyne of Notre Dame decided in favor of Central of South l3end's affirmative against Mishawaka's negative. The following day was the debate with Riley's negative there. Apodaca of the eco- nomics department of Notre Dame gave the decision to Riley. V011 Feb. I4 were two debates with l-aPorte. Our aHirmative team won, negatives lost. Stoner of Plymouth gave the decision to Mishawakzfs negative against Riley's affirmative when they debated here on February 23. llThe last debate was with Central's negative team, which we lost. This closed the debate season for Mishawalia. A record of four losses and two wins does not show up very well on paper, but when one considers that this team of only a month's ex- perience had to COIDPCKC with debaters of two and three years' experience, one feels rather satisfied at the outcome. V With this one year's experience, having lost only one detbater, Mr. Huber has hopes for a fC0m'luded on page 712 2 f THE .VISKODEED VCU!

No doubt they'll startle you, and if you can't understand its language, just act interested. It will be appre- ciated. Who is it? The answer, dear people, is a high school student. V If one were unacquainted with students, some of their mannerisms might be a bit confusing. lt seems that most of them think alike when it comes to following ideas or new things. For instance should someone find that Dame Fashion has decreed some- thing new and gaudier in wearing apparel, two days later would find such an array of color in the high school, that rainbows could but hide their heads in shame. V It seems that one identification tag lies in a name.

They are having a grand time even though some of it is understandable only to themselves, and if you must have some feeling for them, a little envy would be better. OF THIRTY-THREE II 19335 l-ICDNCDIQABLE DISC!-IARGES By MARIAN WURZ ' O discussions of friends, clothes, or S. P.'s should disrupt class cabinet meetings this year. It is not certain whether woman's return to feminity via the Victorian mode she's been wearing or the depression is the cause. QIt's safe to blame 'most anything on the depression -it's the nation's standard alibi.j Anyway, the honorable discharges of 1933, leading the entire school, went masculine and elected all boys as class officers. An exciting, miniature party campaign yield- ed this list of names to guide the senior ship of state--for better or for worse--during that class's last year of parking privilege at old M. H. S.: Hugh Shown, master of ceremonies, Charles Baldwin, president of the senate, Isa- dore Rosenwasser, ecrivain de tellres, George Long, keeper of the coin, Paul De Caussemaker, Olympic council delegateg and Robert Zimmer- man, ambassador to the august controlling bill- board. How's that for a snappy line-up? Did you catch it all? QAnd is somebody ever up on his titlesll V The first wheel this train set in motion was work on the scenic and literary effort you are now touring-wading through, perhaps. One of the first steps in that direction was the elec- tion of the effervescent lane Myers as Miss Kodeed. The staff also staged a baby parade which starred several prominent seniors such as Tommy Richards, Brewer, Dot Foerster, Tobey Ramsey, and other well-known juve- niles. fSee pictures on another pagej On November 4, the lid popped off the social teapot with the Senior Kick-offf' which was a dance-not a funeral. The stags at eve were numerous, perhaps because, 'being dough- less, they had to be doe-less, although at the end it cost many of them nothing to take a girl home, since it was raining so hard that one could scarcely see the drug-store. If However, the glorious success of The Nut Farm, that crazy comedy of a screen-struck girl, aided and abetted by her mother and hus- band, made a big hit with the 800 persons who saw it. Fittingl Hugh Shown, the class presi- dent, played th mrincipal role, that of the young brother who made a lot of money for his family and acquired a bride besides. The part suited Hugh well, because he is naturally the type of young man he portrayed. fThat was a cute scene in which he kissed Becky Kreps, wasn't it?j The other characters also, made the most of what was probably their last opportunity. Nearly all of them have been in class and club plays before. Harry Castleman, who has been tap-dancing his way through school-when he wasn't playing football and escorting Helen Walters around-has been in four plays, as has Herbert Germann, who plays in the band, is president of H. S. S., and also has a weakness for a certain girl-a different certain one for almost every day fand nightj of the week. If This was the third and most important stage appearance for Rebecca, the sweet young thing, and Iim Cone, Uhe handsome film hero, Marianvixtg-ji Wurz, the mother. We'd like to know what her dead huslband looked like, for, though a red-head herself, she possessed a blond daughter and a brunette son Qnothing like variety in a family, and Ruth Ann Iernegan, her daughter, have each been in two class plays. Ruth Ann really deserves a paragraph for herself. She is an honor student, a member of N. H. S. and H. S. S., president of the Girls' Glee club, a member of the girls' septet, and a praiseworthy artist. If you don't believe it, look at the drawings in this book. They were all made by her own fair hands and those of Carl Hossler, who turned out to be a good yell leader and has put so much advertising on the blackboard and made so many posters that if all his work were put in one of those end to end problems it would look like ingredients for a big bowl of alphabet soup. WRobert Zimmerman, who was Ruth Ann's husband in The Nut Farm, just stepped up from the part he took as her fiance in A Shot in the Dark, that English VII play which was presented at a general assembly. Bob usually doesn't talk unless he has something to say, but he hast made a name for himself scholasti- cally and has also done a lot to make this year's tennis team rate.

OF THIRTY-THREE 14 HGLLVWGGD ON REVUE H., MAXINE nrreu ff O you've come home for good from the Methodist cemeterygl-l mean semi- nary. No, it isn't stuttering Tom, it's Hugh Shown clowning his way through the part of Willie Barton, the leading masculine character of the senior class play, The Nut Farm. l'This Iltll farm is a crop of human units vvho go dalfy over the movies, broke when they go nutty, and solemnly make a whole lot of fun out of their tragic experiences. Screen struck boys and ginls are no novelty these days, but Willie Barton and his married sister, Helen Bent, reached their goals by devi- ous paths. Willie had a yen to be a director of Hlm comedies, and his sister Helen, Ruth Ann Iernegan, aspired to become a movie star. W Poor Willie had a dreadful time getting any- one to understand him. Marian Wurz, as Ma Barton, the distracted mother of Helen and Willie, found that life among the quarrels of XVillie, Helen, and Robert, Helen's husband, was not so pleasant as it might have been. ll Harry Castleman, as Biddeford, the writer of the drama, kept the audience in gales of laughter through his suffering with hay fever. Wylie Voorheis, as Ezra Sliscomb, gave a par- ticularly good imitation of an Iowa farmer. At last lim Cone had a chance to strut his Galble features, for he played the part of Van Horten, the actor. His portrayal of this polished gentle- man was quite commendable. Rebecca lireps as Agatha, was delightful in the role of a young girl. Herbert Hermann, as Holland, the slick crook, employed all the characteristics of that suave gentleman to make his part a success. Hugh and Ruth Ann, who had the leading roles in the play, gave superb performances, while' Marian Wurz's interpretation of Ma Barton was very realistic. Robert Zimmerman, the lov- ing husband of Helen, did a stellar bit of acting. Lois Bent took the part of Hilda, the Bents' maid. A particularly amusing scene of the play was the enactment of the drama, Scorching Pas- sion, in the front room of the Bents' home with the entire cast taking part in it. Biddeford and Sliscomb as the Foreign Legion, Ma Barton as the Nautch Dancer, Agatha Sliscomb as the two hundred Bedouirus, and VVillie as the bugle, all contrived to make the tragic scene of liustace and Mollie lost upon the desert a screaming farce. VMiss Lora Duguid, who coached the play, and Helen Clement, promptcr, undoubtedly were responsible for the huge success of the play. Miss Duguid, whose untiring efforts made The Nut Farm a hit play, has also been re- sponsible for 'the senior plays of the last few years. Congratulations, cast, we enioyed the play immensely! 4 SEIXIICDRS OF THIRTY-THREE SENIOR SLAP-STICKS By MARGARET 0'DELL HELEN ACKENHUSEN fickle Daughter of the gods: divinely tall.

There are 24 seniors who have earned places on its exclusive roster. Many of these students have been mentioned 'before as being prominent in other activities, but all of them have enviable reputations as respected seniors. The feminine contingent is very predominant, as there are but two boys on the list-which proves something- you guess what! - The climax of four years, the honor of being valedictorian of her class was conferred on Mary Hess, who had an average of 96.41. Mary has the friendship and respect of all who know her wellg and besides her outstanding scholastic work, she has enjoyed the positions of editor of the Alltold and associate editor of the Misko- deed during the last year, both of which mean a great deal of Work. VSeconcl in the list is the name of Frances Gardner, salutatorian, whose average was 95.7. Although not the Hash- ing, outstanding type of person, Frances has, nev- ertheless, quietly done her work so well that it shows up by its own ex- cellence, w i th 0 u t a n y need of her doing any- thing to call attention to lt. Ruth Teichman is third with an average of 94.31. Ruth is president of the Commercial club this year and has several times distinguished her- ' self at the state commer- cial meets held at Muncie. V Mary Frances McDon- ough has 94.15, and Eve- lyn Miller, 93.8. Margaret O'Dell, president of Quill and Scroll, is among the highest with an average of 93.35. Elizabeth Deal and Anne DiFiori, both valued commercial stu- dents, have 93.25 and 92.85, respectively. Eunice Palmer, who has 92.61, Ieanette VanHuFfel, 92.43 Ruth Ann jer- negan, 92.43 and Maxine Hitch, 92.78, Mar- jory Moore, who plays the piano beautifully, 92.27, and Doro-thy Mae Foerster, 92.12, com- plete the list of those above 92. Pearl Press, who took first place in the state ty-ping competition this year has 91.91, Esther Hawkins has 91.43 Claudine Culp, who entered this year from S. B. Central, has sustained her record there with 91.18, Ray Winey, who has 38 credits, more than any other graduate, who was president of the Hi-Y, and was twice presi- dent of his class, has an average of 91.81. llThe remainder of the list includes Marian Wurz, 90.93, Iulia Versceg, who has lovely curly black hair, 90.78, Milo McClure, the run- ner, 90.58, Genevieve Long, 90.54, Muriel Iacob- son, 90.36, and the popular lane Myers, 90.22.

Interesting thoughts nm live only in cultivated minds. -William Lyon Phelps. O promote scholarship, leadership, character, and service is the four-fold purpose of the National Honor Society, and any student who possesses these four is a learned person. Students are invited into this society twice a year. ln December the first group is named, and in April the second group of students is selected. These persons must be of junior or senior rank, and they must be in the upper fifteen per cent of the junior A's or the upper fifteen per cent of the seniors. V Those who were members when school be- gan last fall were: Charles Baldwin, Anne Di- Fiori, Mary Hess, Ruth Ann Iernegan, Margaret O'Dell, lsadore Rosenwasser, Ruth Teichman, and Ray Winey. The following were named in December: lilinore Dillavou, Dorothy Mae Foerster, Frances Gardner, Muriel lacobson, Mary Frances Mc- Donough, lane Myers, Eunice Palmer, Pearl Press, Iulia Versceg, Marian Wurz, and Robert Zimmerman. V011 Ianuary 4, before all the students of Mishawaka High Shool, these eleven persons were formally taken into this nationally known honor society at an induction ceremony. The olhcers of the society for this year were: Charles Baldwin, president, Mary Hess, vice- presidentg Ruth Teichman, secretary, Muriel Iacobson, Board of Control member, F. W. Chapman, treasurer and sponsor. ll This spring the committee which chose the juniors for membership decided to keep the names of the candidates secret. The members of the junior class and their friends were kept in suspense for more than a week. Some of the students made some guesses. Some of the guesses were very good, but some were wild. On May 3 during the general assembly ten from the junior class were called to the stage and formally inducted into the society. As each new member's name was called his pleasure and surprise were gratifying. W Dorothy Born, Charles Calvert, Phyllis Dun- don, Margaret Hambright, Henry Heintzberger, Robert Kemp, Norman Smith, Charles Stine, Harley Spencer, and Iacob Swartz were the ten juniors who received that pleasant surprise. The members of this organization with the members of the Quill and Scroll and the Hon- orary Scholastic Society and their guests enjoyed an evening of dancing and merry-making on Friday, May 19. Ioe Graves and his Terrace Garden orchestra furnished the music for the dancers. . l1The committee for this party consisted of two persons from each of the societies. Claudine Culp and Elizebeth Deal were appointed from the Quill and Scroll, Marie Graveel and Henry Heintzberger, from the H. S. S., and lane Myers and Mary Hess, from the N. H. S. 1 -6 Till? .VISKUIJITISII Tl-HEY CAME-Tl-IEV SAW- THEY comoutara N February 25, twelve victors of a decisive battle stood upon a raised platform before many a spectator. Their hearts throbbed with the anticipation of the award they were about to receive, ln unison they spoke the Words of a pledgeg then upon their throbbing bosoms a medal was placed. This medal of gold was a scroll with a quill diagonally across it. lt was a token of their outstanding work in the late contest. lIThe contest was the striving of every stu- dent who was on either the fllltola' or the Mis- lqodeed stalf to become one of the best journal- ists of the group- 'lihe raised platform was the Mishawaka High school stage, and the spectators were the members of the junior and senior classes. V The medal of gold was the Quill and Scroll pin, the award of the International Honor So- ciety of High School journalists for the people who had contributed superior work to the All- zold, the school weekly, or the Mzixlqodced, the school annual. These persons also had to 'be outstanding in character and in scholarship. These were the victors: Lois Bent, Elizabeth Deal, Dorothy Mae Foerster, Mary Hess, Iane Myers, Margaret O'Dell, Eunice Palmer, lsadore Rosenwasser, Iacob Swartz, Marian Wurz, and Robert Zimmerman. l1This group of popular young journalists chose Margaret O'Dell for their president, Isa- dore Rosenwasser, secretary. Miss Ileimbach is faculty advisor. These journalism students who qualified for mem-bership in this society received the L'Quill and Scroll for one year. This is the magazine published by the organization. Contests are sponsored during the school year to encourage a better style of journalistic writing. WAll the journalism students were required to write editorials, feature stories and advertise- ments, which were sent in to these contests. Margaret O'Dell, who did outstanding work in journalism this year, and who was president of the Mishawaka High School Quill and Scroll, contributed an editorial on world peace. She received honorable mention on this interesting editorial. Later she wrote a feature story, The Dress of High School Studentsng for this she also received honorable mention. If Robert Zimmerman wrote an unusually good advertisement for the second group contest, and it was sent to be judged- He was awarded fourth place in this district. This year members were chosen twice. The second group of journalism students to receive the honor of being invited into this society was composed of Claudine Culp, Mary Grimes, Maxine Hitch and lean Borden. VThe induction ceremony for these four members was in the first week in May. Only members ol' the Quill and Mroll were present. Oli 'l'lIllC'l'Y-Tll RFI? 17 Tl-IE M. I-l. S. SMART SET ny JEAN nomnzw ISHANVAKA High school's smart set,' or her intelligentsia, consists of those stu- dents who have an unwavering average of QOQQ or above. These might be sophomores, juniors, or seniors. These outstanding students are known around school as members of the Honorary Scholastic Society. You will recognize the soph- omore and junior B members by their bronze ll. S. S. pins. The junior A and senior mem- bers have silver pins. 11011 December 21, six seniors: Rose Areta, Esther Crocker, Claudine Culp, Evelyn Miller, Marjorie Moore, and Vernon Searerg two jun- iors: Charles Calvert and Henry Heintzberger, and nine sophomores: Richard Ackenhusen, Aim Buranick, Margaret Kizer, Betty Klein, Robert Nash, Iames Powell, Robert Wanamaker, john Wolf, and Donald Zimmerman were invited into the Honorary Scholastic society. The Reverend Mr. A. Beutenmueller greeted these new members at their induction ceremony. He talked on the spiritual basis of true educa- tion. V After the serious part of the meeting, the new members were initiated by lbeing compelled to draw a picture ol: their most thrilling date, or by being requested to sing a solo. At this meeting Herbert Cermann was elected presidentg Elizabeth Deal, secretary- treasurerg and Claudine Culp, Board of Control member. Mr. Broman is the faculty advisor of this organization. W Each year the valedictorian of the graduating class is honored by the Honorary Scholastic society. This organization gives this superior student a gold H. S. S. pin. Mary Hess, Whose outstanding work has gained her recognition throughout her entire high school career, is the person who will receive that honor this year. Maryls average is 9t'i.4ifffg,. On May 3, eighteen students were invited to membership into this society. Following is a list of these students: Lucien Arata, Tommy Blair, Lawrence Cyganek, Mary Helen Dill, Marie Craveel, Margaret Hambright, Grace Larsen, Genevieve Long, Virginia Lowery, Mar- jorie Lutes, Pauline Meadows, Ruth Miller, Vir- ginia Rodgers, Margrete Rogers, lacob Swartz, Clare Versceg, Iulia Versceg, and Clara Wads- worth. l1Friday evening, May 5, Dr. I. A. Burnett spoke to the members. The Privileges of a Modern Scholar was his topic. At this meeting the newly elected members were inducted into the society. The oflicers elected at this meeting were Henry Heintzberger, presidentg Robert Kemp, secretary-treasurer, and Charles Calvert, Board of Control mem-ber. W The H. S. S. members gave a party for the Quill and Scroll and the National Honor So- ciety members. Dancing was the main feature of the evening. Refreshments were served. 394 THF .IIISKO Dlflfll EXECUTIVES QF TO O you remember 'way back when-P No, of course you don't. No one in Mishawaka High school now does, unless he's a P. G. The Commercial club had its beginning in the Scribbler's club. This club included only advanced shorthand students. In I925 the club was enlarged so that it could include more com- mercial students and was renamed the Com- mercial clutb. The objective, which its mem- bers have set for it throughout the years of its existence, has been to acquire enough finances through the club's activities to send Mishawaka High school's best commercial students to the state commercial contest so that they could bring home the bacon. If The club entrusted its activities for the year to very capable oiticers. They were as follows: Ruth Teichman, presidentg Mary Kalicsak, vice- presidentg Ieanette VanHuH'el, secretary-trcas- urerg Anne Difiiori, Board ol' Controlg and Re- becca lireps, general program chairman. This year the club has been no less active than in other years. Its first social function was a Halloween party on October 27 which proved a success when everyone had the pleasure of exploring the ground within a few blocks of the school house hunting for the exciting thing called treasure. lf.-Xbout all this excitement there seemed to hang a veil of deep thought. Now, what could this possibly be? It was just this. The club MCDIQRCDW was preparing its annual production of the year. This year the custom was somewhat changed. Instead of having their f'Vodvil, which had been established in the past, a play called 'fApplesauce was presented. The cast included Robert Anderson, Bill McAIlisterg Muriel Iacob- son, Hazel Robinsong Charles MacDonald, Rollo Ienkinsg Lottie Mae Williams, Mrs. Rotbinsong and Harry Castleman, Mr. Robinson. Miss Moist was director and Margaret O'DelI was student prompter. The audience which viewed the performance pronounced it one of the best productions ever presented by the club. The club has been very fortunate this year in having several well-known speakers. One speaker well-liked by the students was Post- master Gaylor who spoke on the postal service and its branches. Another well-known speaker, Mr. Louis F. Buckley, professor of economics at Notre Dame university, spoke on Depres- sion and the Way Outf' Mr. Robison of the Equitable Life Insurance Company spoke on the sales and kinds of life insurance. VWhen April 15 rolled around, the whole commercial department was tense with excite- ment. The Hbig day', had come. This was the day for the State Mass contest. For that day and for several days following an undercut- rentu of excitement seemed to press everyone. How did Mishawaka place in comparison to the other schools? Every one said Mishawaka could do it and Mishawaka did.

Because ol limited linances this year the teams were not ahle to go in a husg they went in several cars. Ol' course this did not cramp the fun that they usually had, they enioyed themselves just as much as ever. lfSaturday, April zo, was the eventlul day. This was the day the teams proved what they could or could not do. Although the teams were not so successful as they have heen in liormer years, Nlishawaka had something to he thankful for when the day was over. They had tied lor second place and had two lirst place winners. The lirst place winners were Ruth 'l'eich- man, who won lirst in advanced shorthand. and Pearl Press, who won lirst in advanced typing. The advanced shorthand team won lirst place. and the heginning typing won third place. llOn Saturday night the teams all attended the Victory hanquet held at the llotel Roherts in Muncie. Indiana.

Some art stu- dents have complained that the sounds issuing from the room afbove theirs fwhich is the music room, of coursej have not resembled music in the least, but these students had to listen to re- hearsals while the general public heard only the Finished productions. WThe outstanding success of the combined glee clubs, excluding their spring concert, was the Christmas pageant, which they presented as their annual Christmas assembly program. The Art department made the scenery and designed the costumes worn in the pageant, the glee clubs told Christmas stories in songs, and mem- bers of the Speech club enacted the stories while the glee clubs sang them. Mary Frances Mc- Donough and Doris Pullman, cellists, and Ger- aldine Lenning, and Isadore Shapiro, violinists, accompanied, while Margaret Hanrbright, Ruth Ann Iernegan, Calvin Horein, Robert Anderson, and George Klein carried the solo parts. During the same week the two clubs pre- sented a program of Russian Christmas carols before the Woman's club, the girls wearing for collar and cuff sets. achievement, for the crepe paper ruffling the first time their new These sets are reall an . Y girls made them from Qyou're not supposed to know thislj isewed on cotton or linen foundations as a group project. It is too bad the boys haven't something as equally fetching to wear, for they were put quite in the shade. If The clubs' activities during May were rather varied, for they presented their concert on May 4. As a climax ,to a busy and successful year they sent the graduating seniors off by singing for Baccalaureate. llThe orchestra has been just as busy as any of the other musical groups, for it has played for nearly all the school affairs held in our auditorium as well as played for many civic affairs. They played for the Princess Misha- waka Centennial pageant held in Lincoln Park during the third week of May, 1932, thus start- ing this school year's activities before last year's had closed. Durinir this school year they pro- vided music for all the class plays, Open House, Commencement, Baccalaureate, and the Spring Concert, of course, as well as playing 'between- act music when the Masque presented 'KThe ln- timate Strangers in our auditorium the last week in December. Their one venture from the auditorium was when they played for one Ladies' Night at the Fellowship club, but that appearance was as successful as their others, so evidently location has nothing to do with their performance- -. OF THIRTY-THREE The orchestra was small this year, but what it lacked in quantity, it mad-e up for in quality, as the following list of mem-bers shows: Hrst violins: lsadore Shapiro, Marietta VanDusen, Elmer Weinkauf, Maurice Hahn, Mary Kohler, Geraldine Lenning, Harland Laycock, Merle Smith, Glen Walters, and Gay Dornsifeg second violins: Marian Arthur, Mary Frances Grimes, lrene Granger, Margaret Katterheinrich, Iames Miller, Robert Nagel, and Pauline Rhodes, cellos: Mary Frances McDonough and Doris Pullmang trombones: Bernard O'Reilly, Nor- man Smith, and Robert Carter, French horn: Darwin Heeterg Hute: Robert Zimmerman, and clarinet: Marietta Albert. l1That smaller group of talented musicians, the string ensemble, has entertained at many social and civic functions throughout the year and proved to be very popular with the citizens of Mishawaka and South Bend. Isadore Sha- piro, Harland Laycock, Geraldine Lenning, Marietta VanDusen, Mary Frances McDonough, and Doris Pullman compose the ensemlble which played for P. T. A. meetings, 'a Fellowship club luncheon, the luncheon given by heads of the committee on the School Relief Fund, lboth given in our cafeteria, the Washington luncheon given by members of the Woman's club in the club house, and the entertainment given by pupils of the LaSalle school in South Bend. They also presented a group of pieces at the music assembly in February and played between acts of the senior play, The Nut Farmf, The boys' quartette, composed of George Klein, baritone: Robert Anderson, tenor, George Parant, second tenor, and Robert Carter, bass, sang before several audiences during the year, 5' receiving much praise for their work. As they did not organize until late in the hrst semester, they presented their combined talent to the students for the first time when they sang a group of songs at the music program assembly. Occasions for their other appearances included a meeting of the Fellowship club, a Hi-Y meet- ing, a young people's meeting held in the Bap- tist church, and the spring concert. The boys presented their songs well. and our regret is that we had so few opportunities of hearing them. ll Ruth Ann Iernegan, Alta Lehr, Phyllis Dun- don, Juanita Kelley, Dorothy Mae Foerster, Margaret Hambright, and Mary Grimes, the seven girls who were members of the girls' sep- tette, entertained many public and social groups during the year. Among the affairs for which they sang were a general meeting of the Wom- an's club, a meeting of the Optimists' club held in the Y. W. C. A. in South Bend, the Mathe- matics department of the North Central Indiana Teachers' association at Riley High school, a Fellowship club dinner, a P. T. A. meeting, a general and a freshman assembly, the School Children's Relief Fund party held here at school in Ifanuary, the Depression luncheon given by heads of the School Relief Fund, a Woman's club luncheon, and Commencement. Needless to say, they found enough work to do to keep them out of mischief. And, last but not least, Miss Iones, the di- rector of all of them groups, should come in for her share of recognition. Under her expert su- pervision and direction, the music department has been able to entertain at these many func- tions, and by helping them to please others, she has helpcd all those whom she has coached.

H. S. Entering with the idea of doing big things, they have capa- bly lived up to their idea. Now this class has reached the prime of their high school career-- the junior year! With special care they chose Chuck Stine as president for this year. He has been assisted by three more Charleses-f'Chuck Calvert, Chuck Dudding, and Chuck Meuninch. The other two officers were 'lEd Rhodes and Russ Hopper. The juniors were especially successful in their social affairs. The Hatchet Hop, held on the evening of February 24, was pulled off, a great triumph. Class originality was pro- nounced in the decorations. Red, white, and blue were the colors used in keeping with George Washington's birthday. The Notre Dame jugglers provided the music. lllnvitations by the juniors requesting the presence of 'the seniors to the prom have long been issued. Something secret and mysterious has been taking place among those juniors- of course it's their plans for the gala affair, and they certainly haven't revealed many hints. Even the writer cannot imagine their secret, but one thing sure,-there will be plenty of punch and wafers for all. In athletics the junior showing was excellent. ln football eighteen came out, and they were john Sostack, Edwin Rhodes, Robert Hilde- brand, john Nolke, Charles Calvert, Robert Kemp, George Gray, james Decker, Henry Wallbraeck, Emil Van Hufffel, Charles Ured- nick, Ralph Tuttle, Henry Heintzberger, Robert Kronewitter, Victor Fay, jacob Swartz, Frank Kronewitter and Charles Meuninch. ll In the winter sport-lbasketball-Tom Hut- chinson and George Palmer gained favorable records for their Alma Mater. Track, tennis, and golf claimed many junior athletes including Echo Slaybaugh, Elbert Rog- ers, john Sostack, Earl Stover, Edwin Rhodes, Tom Hutchinson, Charles Urednick, Nilo Ver- nasco, Ralph Tuttle, Henry Heintzberger, Rich- ard Klein, Gene Nicolini, Ben Mason, Gerard Canfield, George Wilson, Victor Fay, Frank Kronewi-tter, Charles Meuninch, and Wayne Marvin. Three of the managers were juniors, and they were Howard Dielmann, john Gleiss- ner, and Victor Brant. W Not a person can say that the juniors werenlt good debaters, for they had Henry Heintzber- ger, jacob Swartz, and Elden Schalliol on the varsity debate team. l should say not! Recently intramural debating has been started and the juniors took an active part in it. Those that participated were Charles Calvert, George Weimer, Leona Van Rie, Thomas Hutchinson, Norman Smith, Charles Stine, Elfbert Rogers, john Gleissner, and john Clark. Now, after all-what do we come to school lor? ls not scholarship our highest aim? The honor point system has 'been a spur to all stu- dents for scholastic success. These juniors kept on the honor roll for the entire first semester: Henry Heintzberger, Marie Graveel, Grace Lar- sen, Charles Calvert, Phyllis Dundon, john Gleissner, Mary Helen Dill, Meriem Lung, jacob Swartz, Howard Dielmann, Robert Kemp, julia Liepold, Elden Schalliol, Harley Spencer, Mary Elizabeth Bueche, Margaret Hamlbright, Mary june Castleman, Charles Dudding, james Kirkpatrick, Elbert Rogers, james Maggart, Lottie Mae Williams, and Dorothy Born. VThe juniors owe a great deal of their suc- cess to the faculty advisors who have faithfully guided their undertakings and offered appre- ciated inspiration. Miss Snyder has acted as head sponsor for two years. The assisting teach- ers are Mr. D:Croes, Miss Lester, Miss Perkins, and Mr. Thurston. Here's a big cheer for the jolly juniors, and may there be many more classes like them. 34 THE .XIIXKODEED SOUND GCDGD-BUT ARE THEY?

The solemn rite of initiating new members into its ranks was one of the First tasks of the club. At this meeting 38 boys were admitted into the club and pledged themselves to uphold. all through their lives, the high standards of the club. Mr. I. Z. Nelibergall of the Y. M. C. A. spoke to the boys on the way of going through life with some thought of their own and not following the crowd. ll Membership to this club is purely voluntary, everyone is eligible to join. Formerly all per- sons wishing to become a member of the club had to live up to certain standards and in recog- nition oli the feat was awarded membership in the society. The Hi-Y may be said to be the founder of the Yell Clubs. The club had been active dur- ing the football season in promoting many pep sessions, and it decided that what was lacking was organized yelling. In order to secure such a result the Girls' Yell club and the Boys' Yell club were organized and have proved successful. ll At the close of the fooball season the Hi-Y clubs of Mishawaka, and Riley and Central of t t South Bend held a banquet for the teams rf the three schools. The banquet was held at the Riley High school and about 200 persons were present. The principal speaker of the evening was Arthur L. Trester, Commissioner of the ln- diana High School Athletic association, who spoke on the subject What's lt All Aboutw' The three coaches of the schools, Frank Steele, Elmer Burnham, and Forrest Wood gave brief speeches. The Tribune trophy was presented to Principal McCowan of Central High school by Mr. Warren of the Tribune. The tri-school banquets were started in IQQS by the Mishawaka Hi-Y. It was made an .tn- nual affair in order to promote better feelings in sports between the three schools. V Each year it is the custom for the Hi-Y's of Mishawaka and South Bend Central to design and sell a program for the South Bend-Misha- Waka game. This year the club offered a very novel program. It was the shape of a football and the cover was designed so as to be a repro- duction of the pigskin. At the beginning of November the ollicers of the club, Ray Winey, president, Thomas Richards, vice-president: George Long, secre- tary, Isadore Rosenwasser, treasurerg and Char- les Stine, Board of Control, accompanied bv Mr. DeCroes, sponsor, attended a Hi-Y confer- ence at Camp Eberhart. While at the meeting they heard B. A. Schnell, the state Y. M. C. A. secretary, give an interesting talk on the func- tions of the Hi-Y. The oflicers and several members of the club also attended an Older Boys' Conference at Kokomo. VDuring the second semester the meetings are usually given over to the discussion of sub- jects which interest the boys. The discussions are weekly or bi-weekly. The boys discuss such subjects as Should I Go to College or mls Religion Necessary to the Fulfillment of Life? Why Educate Ourselves? was the topic for dis- cussion at one of the meetings of the inner-circle of the Hi-Y which is composed of seniors in the club. The outcome, it seems, was that every- one should be educated so that he might be of value to his family and community. The active season for the club closed with the banquet in May. Ulf 'I'lIIlv I'Y-'I'lI ICFIY sw EVERY PENNY COUNTS! Hy E LIZEB ETH IDEAL flow fimne fo zlaubl,--bu! m11l.ou.f un' lflc' w1'.re. ---Odyssey. llxli wisemen in the days of old the Board of Control and the Athletic Council have sat lor many a month in long and serious ses- sions pondering over the serious questions of linance. This year the questions of finance have ht-en greater than that ol' any other year since the councils have heen founded. The hrst great question which confronted the Board ol' Control was whether or not the class ol '53 should puhlish the Miskodeed. After much serious thinking had heen done, and after much discussion for and against it had heen given serious thought, the decision showed that the year hook could he puhlished in a con- densed form. W'l'he Board of Control is the trusty banker ol' all the money taken in hy the school. All organizations in school are depositors with the hoard, who keep an ever watchful eye on their funds. liach organization, with the consent of the hoard, is privileged to spend from its hal- :mce just as an individual would. No tiunds are controlled entirely hy the hoard as a checking account except the miscel- laneous fund. This account goes to pay the cost ol general assemhlies, vault insurance, stamps, and guarantees any red accounts. The red accounts do not occur very often. They occur only under the supervision ol' the Board memhers. This lund is huilt up 'hy charging all organizations 25 , on its net receipts. The hoard doesn't have a lot to worry ahout in the way ol funds from the classes and organ- izations, hut the Athletics account causes much worry. The wisemen must spend much time in deciding where each penny should go. lf Spring ihasehall was eliminated from the list ot' athletics for the second semester this year. The reason for this was that it is not a self-sup- porting sport and would cost unnecessary money which could he applied to the loothall fund to start the '34 season. Tennis and golf were in- cluded, hecause they are sell'-supporting. ln Iune all the separate sports accounts are trans- ferred into the Athletic Association account, and all the athletics next year will sitart out with a hole to till. The Athletic Council may well the called a man's council. It is composed entirely ol' men. Unlike the Board of Control it has representa- tives lrom only the classes, while the hoard has representatives from all organizations and classes. The memhers ol' the Athletic Council are all fellows and men teachers and advisors. l1Balancing the hudget and having a little left to hegin the 11,153-IQ34 foothall season and other activities was the prohlem the Athletic Council laced. Proceeds this year from the loot- ball games were not nearly so large as they should have heen and that department of the hudget showed a marked decrease to that of other years. The only hope of ever halancing the hooks was the outcome from the 'haskethall seascn. That part ot the hudget more than surprised the wisemen ol' this M. H. S. witen- agcinot. Because ol' the lowering ol' the income, the council awarded cheaper sweaters this year. gfw TARTING the season with only two letter men on the squad, co-captains Chuck Meun- inch and Wayne Good, the 1932 edition of the Mishawaka High school football team waded through an unusually strenuous schedule with better than the expected success. A record of four wins, four losses, and two ties against such teams as Elkhart, the conference champs, South Bend Central, last ye:1r's state champions, South Side of Fort Wayne, Riley of South Bend, Mich- THE .IIISKODEED THREE MONTHS CDF BLJMPS AND BRUISES By ROBERT ZIMMERMAN igan City, Goshen, LaPorte, Peru, Marion, and Crown Point is surely an accomplishment de- spite the fact that there was no football camp last year. Probably the highlight of the Mishawaka football season was the Maroon victory over Fort Wayne. Getting the jump on the overconlident pigskin toters from that city at the opening whistle, the Cavemen were able to hold a hard- earned lead throughout the entire contest and U I 7' H I IC 'I' Y A 'I' lv' If If IT finally won by a two point margin. incidentally. lfort Wllyfllt' made an impressive record during the season, their only loss being made in their game with the Cavemen. If The annual football classic of northern Indi- ana between Mishawaka and South Bend Cenl tral had its usual glamour, color, thrills, and spectators, despite the fact that Mishawaka came out on the short end of the score. The Bears were simply a better and more experienced team, having little difficulty in beating the Cave- mcn iq-o. The spirit of the day was enhanced to a certain extent hy the new uniforms in which the M. H. S. band was attired for the first time. It could be easily said that Central had the football team, and Mishawaka had the band. Mishawaka, in its first Northern Indiana High School conference tilt, was held to at scoreless tie by an unexpectedly stubborn team from Goshen. The Maroons, however, were pointing to their game with Elkhart on the fol- lowing Saturday, and consequently the boys were not primed for their best brand of football. The Caventen's I3-0 loss to Elkhart was ex- pected hy the dopesters, but to anyone who wit- 47 nessed the game just the opposite result was anticipated. The local contenders threatened to score many times but never appeared to have the final drive to carry the oval over. l'The Maroons, in their three remaining games, displayed some excellent playing, while on the other hand, there was exhibited a certain amount of listless football. Michigan City had little trouble in disposing of the Cavemen, do- ing so to a score of 21-7. Mishawaka retaliated by swainping LaPorte zo-7. The fray against Riley should have been played with snowshoes instead of football cleats, and fur caps instead of helmets. After an hour of sliding, wading, falling, and aching, the battle ended in a score less tie with all players looking like so many snowmen. fConcluded on page 722 QS THF .XIISKODISISD Q15 IN TI-IE SPRING A YGUNG MANS FANCY HERE is one sport within the portals of M. H. S. that receives little, if any, support from the students. This long neglected activity is track. There has been, at the present time, a very decided effort to stimulate student in- terest in this sport. In the meets participated in thus far, Mishawaka's flying Maroons have broken even, winning two meets and losing two. The Maroons had ten lettermen back this year, and with the help of several new recruits have built up a very powerful squad. The lettermen who are 'back this year are as follows: Milo McClure, who has placed first in the mile in every mee-t this yearg Remi Couvreur, an- other runner who has beaten all challengers in the loo yard eventg Gene Nicolini, who usually places in any competitiong Lewis Sawyers, who always runs second to Nicolini in the quarter mile rung Chuck Meuninch, one of the best half mile runners that the school has ever pos- sessed: Nilo Vernasco another 880 man who always pushes the winner in his event, Frank lironewitter, the only lettcrman in the pole vaultg Tuttle, who has succeeded in winning more firsts in the hurdles' this year than his running mate Harry Castleman, Castleman, who has a queer habit of leading the race until the last hurdle is reached, then usually misl judges his leap and knocks the Final barrier down, thereby dropping behind the rest of the contestantsg Mose Young, our promising high jumper who is always good for Hrst or second. If Some of the new men who have helped con- siderably in winning track meets are: Fred Willett, the loo yard and zoo yard dash man, Kristl and Wilcox, two excellent broad jumpersg Marzotto and Urednick, the mainstays in the pole vault, H. Heintzberger, a miler who al- ways closely follows McClure across the finish lineg L. Lang, a quanter miler whose loss by graduation will be a serious blow to next year's squad, and last, but not least, Robert Gibbons, who gives everything he has in the home stretch of the quarter mile. ln the first track meet of the season the Cavemen were defeated by Elkhart 63 to 46. The Maroons were seriously handicapped by injuries and ineligibilities, nine men being lost in this way, Elkhart won first-place in seven out of the thirteen events, scoring a slam in the pole vault and winning .both relays. On April 15, the Cavemen traveled to Michigan City to compete in ll triangular meet with LaPorte and Michigan City. The Maroons won this meet with a total of 74M points. Their nearest rival was LaPorte, who was able to garner only 23 points. Mishawaka was never in danger and took io of I3 First places. If Displaying exceptional power in every event, the Mishawaka High school tracksters turned out to be greedy hosts on April 22 when they defeated the Goshen Redskins, 82 to 27. The Cavemen had everything their own way and literally walked off with all the honors, taking UI TIIIIQTY-THRITE eight out of thirteen Hrst places. Ed Rhodes would have broken the field record in the shot put, if only he hadn't stepped outside the circle after his toss, and Couvreur missed fbreaking the field record in the too yard dash by five- tenths of a second. After the dust cleared from the Riley High school athletic Field on April ZQ only one record remained unchanged on the books, the other records all having been broken by the tracksters from Central, Mishawaka, and Riley. The final score was Mishawaka 502, Central 5292, Riley 14. If The meet from the beginning was destined to be a duel between Mishawaka and Central, never more than a few points separating the rivals at any time. Couvreur set a record of :lo.I in the loo yard dash, which will stand for some time, and Rhodes' shot put of 46 feet nine inches should stand for a time also. Mish- awaka had a chance for a SIM to SIM tie, but the officials disagreed and announced a dead heat in the high hurdles, after Tuttle had overtaken Obenchain on the last hurdle and seemingly nosed him out at the finish. This was Mishawakrfs last bid for supremacy, and they were defeated by their old rivals by the close score of 522 to 5oZ. One of the hardest working athletic teams in Mishawaka High school is the golf team. The members of this team have sacrificed both time and money to help put Mishawaka High on the golfing map. The players themselves have developed a great deal from last year and early this season. One player in particular who would prove a welcome addition to any golf squad is Clem Canfield. After dropping out of school for several years, Clem came 'back last year to get a little more knowledge. V Another veteran of the battles against Old Man Par is old modesty himself. The golfer's S 0 name is Tom Hutchinson and his scores are usually not far from par. Two other 'birdy killers who don't lose many points are Don Zimmerman and Guy Hood. Both of these boys are capable of excellent golf and sometimes play it. WThe golfers mentioned above make up only the first four men on the squad. The entire team has nine members. In addition to the first four men Gerald Canfield, Harris Palmer, Howard West, Gene Dickerson, and Darwin Rosebrook are out every night working hard to gain a position on the first squad. The team is coached by Ioe Canfield. The tennis team this season looks more like a winning one than it has in many years. With three veteran players from last year's team in the persons of Ben Mason, 'ilohnnyf' Wolf, and Bohn Zimmerman in addition to two first year men, Charles Stine and Montford Mead, the 1933 racket squad has reason for going places. A review of the team's record during the early part of the season reveals a great amount of team power. In their first match against Howe Military academy, the locals came out on top, 6-4. incidentally, Howe swamped Misha- waka last year. Riley High school of South Bend proved a bit too strong for the home boys, winning over the Maroons by a score of 3-2. The Cavemen displayed a flashy brand of tennis in defeating LaPorte, 5-o. Every Maroon player won his match in straight sets and without a great deal of difficulty. l1Perhaps the biggest cause for rejoicing in M. H. S. tennis circles is Mr. Harry Hatcher, the team's new coach. Mr. Hatcher seems to be putting his bookkeeping ability to practical use in keeping records of the boy's errors and points earned in matches.

Gollyl Boy, we sure have a keen president and his name is Herbert Grant. He is assisted by Fred Deardorff, Dick Ackenhusen, Louie Nicolini, Iohnny Wolf, and Don Zimmerman. VWe didn't get to have a play 'cause, you know-the depression!! But we did have a nice dance, and all the boys put on their Sunday suits and got dates and went to it. It was real perty. They called it The Spring Dance. I guess that's 'cause you jump up and down. And then the decorations were fixed up around the cafeteria out of green, pink, and lavenilar crepe paper. It was sort of a fool's dance, since it came the night before April the First. It sure looked awful nice and we had a keen orchestra, IOO. ln footballfhot cha!-the sophomores were sure a big help with Polinck, Nicolini. Holinger, Wagner, Lippens, A. Meuninch, Young, and Fitzsimmons helping to carry the load. ll The sophs had some hot shots in basketball, too. Some of 'em were A. Meuninch, Young, Fitzsimmons, Palsce, and Marzotto. These greensters of today oughtta be the big shots of tomorrow, eh, Sid? Our class also was in the running for track, golf, and tennis. We were represented by Lip- pens, Sawyer, Zimmerman, and Wolf. respec- tively. Athletics among the girls is no lost art here in our school, either. The foremost soph athletes are Dora Walters, Helen Walters, Helen Norris, and Gertrude Hunt. They can run, jump, play ball, dance, and do all to near perfection. WWe got some boys and girls in the speech club, too, and it wouldn't surprise me a hit to see some of 'em bloom into hot stuff politicians and oratofs one of these days. Margaret Kizer 41 and Iohnny Wolf made the varsity, and more will probably try out next semester. Some way to give some school credit to the students who do this hard work should be found. And it is real work! Boy, we've got one cookie that we're mighty proud of, and that's Hob Wanamaker. lmagine a guy getting 'between fifty-one and fifty-fave honor points all semester! Some going! There were some more that kept their names on the roll all semester. They were Betty Klein.

And say, we almost got the whole yell- lcadin' business to ourselves: no wonder the sophs had so much pep all year. Two of the leaders, Cocoa David and Iohnny Kovach, are sophomores.

The art department under the auspices of Miss Nitis Overpeck has done outstanding work in sketching and drawing. ll In the commercial department, Miss Beulah Buchanan teaches typing and junior business training. She is assisted in teaching the latter by Miss Ruth Ann Foulke, who also has charge of teaching all shorthand classes. Mr. Amos teaches commercial geography, while Mr. Hatch- er teaches commercial law and bookkeeping. A large English teaching staff is necessary. Miss lean Cravens, who holds an M.

For surely he walks softly, and just as surely his commands are oheyed explicitly. Perhaps it is hecause his commands are more like personal requests, rather than stern orders. llln Mr. Emmons, our superintendent, we find a curious mixture of an aloof personality comliined with a warm, friendly understanding of the trials and trihulations of the students of Mishawaka. Since he must contend with the entire school system in the city, he cannot know or he known personally hy each and every stu- dent, hut his presence frequently at school func- tions and occasionally in classrooms has made him known to the many groups as a whole. livery large and far-reaching institution must have a general or leader at its head, in order to he successful. Mr. Emmons is the power hehind the throne, so to speak. This is typical of him. His subordinates carry out the detailed ylans which his master mind forms and offers suggestions and corrections. V Being a man of exceedingly high ideals him- self, Mr. Iimmons expects and admires students of like-minded character. But he never creates the impression of a blue-nosed reformer. Rather is he a progressive man seeking ways and means to uphold and improve the school system in Mishawaka. EING principal of a student hody numhering 1,400 is a difficult task. Executive duties are numerous and intensive, and management and generalship traits play an important part in character requirements for the position. All types of individuals are enrolled in M. H. S. In order to attain satisfactory results, all must he under identical rules and regulations, however, various methods for inducing students to abide hy these must he utilized, and therehy hangs this tale. l1Mr. Charles H. Kern, ahove all, is efficient. The smallest or the largest of tasks is handled with the same accomplished finesse which one would expect from the appearance of this well- groomed gentleman. llAlong with this comes his integrity--his moral character is of the firmest. But one of the most outstanding traits in this man's char- acter is his extraordinary ability to make every student, be it senior or freshman, feel that in Mr. Kern lies a personal friend. Perhaps it is his ingenuity, his power of adapting himself to the situation and to the individualfor again, it may he his ingenuous air, that disarms his lis- teners and makes them feel correspondingly frank and candid. Tactfulness is, of course. essential. Of a surety, Mr. Kern has tact: and it has done much to further results of an already naturally ahun- dant supply of leadership. Hand in hand with these comes courage, which is also necessary. 44 HATS CPF TO THE FACULTY Latin paper. Miss Lola lane Rosenberger is the only French teacherg she also teaches Eng- lish. X'l'YZ?

Mr. Broman and Mr. Dahl may not -be jacks of all trades, but they're surely masters of one. Anyhow, they hold Master's degrees in it. Miss Margaret Moist teaches algebra and junior busi- ness training. W All but one of M. H. Sfs history department hold M. A. degrees. Mr. Frank Chapman teaches United States history and citizenship. and also officiates in the Guidance Office for two hours a day.

There is one class in citizenship taught by Mr. Chapman: the remainder are taught by Miss Dorothy Welch and Mr. Larmon VV'hitmer. From time to time during the year, the halls are filled with unpleasant odors, and some of the students are unable to eat lunch. The reason for the former is simple-future chem- ists are merely experimenting in the laboratory.

P., for whenever one of their games is in progress, pep, spirit, and fun are present. The Girls' Athletic association, under the leadership of Miss Watkins has grown until it now has H2 members enrolled and is one of the largest clubs in the state. On October IQ a meeting was held, and by a vote the name was changed from Girls' Athletic league to Girls' Athletic association so that it might become a member of the state organization hy that name. If At the same meeting the point system was changed, so that now no sweaters are given. A letter is now given for Soo points, and num- erals for 400. A girl must have earned loo points before she can become a member of the G X A .4. . On October 26, 32 girls were initiated into the club at a Halloween party. The girls were all in costume, and they had a good time telling ghost stories and eating popcorn-balls and apples. ll Fifty points for G. A.

Members of both the tumbling team and theydance club receive 25 points a semester. Points may also be made in the four unofii- cial sports: tennis, skating, swimming, and hik- ing. For every nine hours of tennis, skating, and swimming, zo points are earnedg and one point is earned for every mile of hiking if the hike is over five miles. There must, however, be three or more G.

If The officers of the club t-his year were Marie Markanich, presidentg Mary Louise Beehler, tice-president, Ruth Vollmer, secretaryg Katie Major, 'treasurerg and Ianette Hunt, Board of Controlrepresentative. At the end of the year a letter was awarded to Iennie Mae Hawthorne, and a number of numerals were given. No winged feet were awarded. This year the girls started their activities early with a five-mile hike. A group of 50 of them took their lunches after school on Septem- ber IQ and went to Iudy Greek. All had a wonderful time roasting their weiners, and it was rumored that they took off their shoes and stockings and went wading in the creek. Then they became business like and organized twelve speedball teams. Although this is only the sec- ond season tor this sport in M. H. S., it has 46 proved exceedingly popular. In the last game of the tournament, Katie Major's junior team battled both a rainy day and,Caroline Picking's senior team to win the championship, 9-7. VVhen chilly weather came, the girls seemed very glad to quit speedball, with its outdoor games, and organized volleyball teams. The I3 teams began playing November 7 and continued until after the Christmas vacation. In the tournament finals, Meriem Weber's junior team became champions by winning a deuce game from Dora Walters's sophomore team, which had been in the lead all season. Basketball is a very pop- ular sport, and about ISO girls answered the call on Ianuary 9. One senior, three junior, four sophomore, and seven freshman teams were organized, they chose as their captains, Ruth Vollmer, senior, Mary Iune Castleman, Katie Major, and Nettie Harrington, juniorsg Gertrude Hunt, Isabelle Warstler, Kath- ryn Liedecker, and Audra Went, sophomores, Myrna Beehler, Maxine Felton, Iune Burkhart, Gladys Loucks, Mildred Milliken, and Evelyn Van Bruaene, freshmen. THIT JIISKODFFD If Each of the I5 teams played I4 games, and the eight teams with the highest standings at the end of the conference games were entered in the tournament. In the finals Ruth Vollmer's senior team de- feated Kathryn Liedecker's team 16-14. In win- ning tfhe championship the senior team accom- plished an extraordinary feat, for they not only won their three tournament games but also all of the 14 conference games without being de- lieated. The Dance club, a part of the G. A. A., was not organized this year until December 8. So many girls had requested it that it was then organized. The 36 old members were admitted to the club without tryouts, -and 62 other girls were present at the tryouts. Twenty-live of this group passed the tests making the total mem- bership about 55. The club was divided into two groups, and Helen Ricci and Mary June Castleman were appointed captains. They helped the girls who were absent make up the steps they missed. The annual physical education demonstra- tion, held on April 6, was one of the most suc- 017 THIRTY-Tl-IREE cessful ever held. The boys for the First time joined the girls in the production. llThe boys' gym classes played games, gave different stunts, and tumsbled. The feature of the evening was the tumbling and pyramid building of the boys' advanced gym classes. The Dance club, group 'number II, presented two excellent dances, Moon Dance and White and Black. In the First number they wore short skirts and trunks and sang I-Iarvest Moon. In the second they had very pretty cos- tumes of white with black trimming. Group numfber I presented You've Got Me in the Palm of Your I-Iandf' dancing with large hands around their heads. ll The natural dancing class gave four dances: Welcome, The Prancers, Scarf and Balloon Rhythmf' and, the best liked of the four, Skat- er's Waltz. A demonstration of cagefball, volleyball, volley-ring tennis, and tumbling was given in a Five-Ring Circus. The fourth period gym class had previously made a study of folk dances, and they gave the English Morris dance, the Swedish, Danish, and Hungarian folk dances. The seventh period class gave a tap, Waltz Clog, which was very well liked. The girls were dressed in comic costumes which represented Happers, and they danced to Sidewalks of New Yorkng Dancing in the Rain was given by the third period class, The Tappers by the fifth period, and News Boys' Clog by the boys and girls of the second and third grades of Main Iunior High school. W The performance was excellent and the gym- nasium was filled to capacity. The proceeds were divided between the girls and the boys to buy equipment for the gymnasium. The fourth of the major sports, indoor, was started in April. Of the io teams organized, there were one sen- ior team, two junior teams, three sophomore teams, and four freshman teams. The girls elected their captains as ifollows: Marie Marka- nich, senior: Katie Major and Isabelle Warstler, juniorsg Teed Marchant, Myrtle Marchant, and Kathleen Klein, sophomores, and leannettc Turnipseed, Maybelle Bryan, Dorothy Spear, and Opal Thompson, freshmen. As in the other sports, each team met every other team and at the end of these conference games, the teams having won the most games played off a tournament to determine the cham- -17 pions. The games in this sport were played only at noon and out-of-doors if the weather permitted. The G. A. A. has a very novel track program, the G. A. A. Pen- tathlon. The work is wholly individual. The girls who wish to participate, practice whenever they have time, and then the day is set for the tests. The events include a 50 yard dash, obsta- cle relay, high jump, 'basketball distance throw, and baseball accuracy pitch. Each girl receives points according to her ability in each event. The girls are then divided into three classes. 'Iihe first class, those who have a score of over 3800 points receive 75 points for G. A. A.g the second class, over 2900, receive 50 points, and the third class, over 2200, receive 25 points. Many of the girls are interested in tumlbling. Usually a team is formed and each member re- ceives 25 points. This year, because of the lack of time, a team was not formed, but the girls who were interested in this work had a chance to show their ability in the demonstration. Tumbling and pyramid building was taught in the classes, and the girls demonstrated this in the Five Ring Circus of the demonstration. lfThe G. A. A. always tries to have a tennis team, but because of the weather the tourna- ment or the schedule for the team is sometimes discontinued. The members of the team are chosen 'by an elimination tournament in which a large number of girls take part. The team does not have a very extensive schedule for they play only South Bend and sometimes Elkhart teams. Any girl, however, can get points for tennis when she has played over nine hours. SOUND GOOD-BUT ARE THEY? The club conducted a tournament of basket- ball for teams made up from its membership. The team coming out on top was lack Mar- tin's, to which Mr. DeCroes presented a beau- tifully engraved cup. The cup proved to be a nice shiny tin cup with the pictures of lack and Iill and the other members of Mother Goose Land Uengravedv on it. ll The organization had a hard time launching its social season. It planned several social func- tions but was forced to postpone everyone until Ianuary, when they were successful in having the Fobjaq. The farmer boys and girls proved attractively charming in old clothes. 48 THE .XIISKODEED THEY WATCH THE WHEELS GG 'IQQUND By CARL HOUSDORFER The meeting will please come to order. WWe have just arrived and 'have taken our seats at one of the tables in the cafeteria, the meeting place of the Engineering club of Mish- awaka I-Iigli school. Harlowe Kelley is presid- ing and has just opened the meeting but from a member nearby we learn that this is his last meeting as president and that he will be suc- ceeded by Robert Kincaid at the next meeting. Now Kelley is announcing the speaker and as he talks we glance around to study those about us. Here are all types of boys, they have little or no care for commercial work, where their chief interest lies is in industrial arts and the speaker's sufbject holds their interest permanent- ly. Here, close 'by, is a student who has won a first prize ribbon at Purdue for his ably made sits a boy he already machine shop project, next to him whose drawing ability is such that has a position working during the afternoon, and then over in the corner is a boy wearing a large white M on his sweater,-we told you 'that here were all types of boys. As the speaker rambles on, we think iback over our days as freshmen and sophs, when we were taking courses in the vocational depart- ment. Mr. Sprague, Mr. Shake and Mr. De Croes, the drawing teachers, were teaching the art of manipulating triangles and T-squares to overcrowded classes: Mr. Goppert was trying to keep the freshies from blowing out all the fuses in the houseg Mr. Thurston with his noisy shop full of band saws and planing machinesg trying to Find Mr. Neediler in the machine shop hiding behind a jumble of overhanging belts and pul- leysg Mr. Middleton underneath a putitery Ford pointing out various mechanisms, and last but, by no means. least, Mr. Marsee trying to satisfy everyone's requests for printed materials at once. Of course these are memories we can't forget but wait, there are others. Remember that ex- hi'bit at Muncie, April 7 and 8, when our projects won so much praise from noted judges, and then, the Industrial Arts exhibit at Purdue, May 5, when our school won the meet with 42 points, including a first in the all-school project and a grand slam in the printing contests. lllust as the speaker concludes his talk and someone makes a motion for adjournment, the bell that indicates the end of the sponsor period rings, and we are rushed to our next classes, resolving to attend the next meeting of the En- gineering club. Ol THIICTY-THlCI:'If 40 its GREEK, T0 us! It killed the curly Romans find non' its klifflillg mc was the favorite chant of beginning Latin stu- dents during their hrst semester or so of learn- ing how to conjugate the simpler verbs, but eleven of these once green little freshies have survived the rigors of Book I ol' Caesars Gallic Wars, and Cicere's orations. and progressed to Miss Wyland's advanced Latin class. The fact that these students could reach Vergil's Aeneid and then have courage to translate it has proved to others that Latin is not such a fatal subject alter all. W Under the direction of Mary Hess, editor, Loretta Van Rie, exchange editor: Sally Major, secretary-treasurer: Marietta Albert and Marian Biltz, joke editorsg Helen Miller, hoard of con- trol memberg and Miss Wyland, faculty advisor, the first semester's staff edited two numbers of the Mw'cm'1'ux, using mimeographing instead of printing in order to curtail expenses. Al- though the papers contained only four pages of written material there were articles to inter- est others hesides Latin students and students ol' ancient history, as many of these articles were distinctly modern both in subject matter and the style in which they were written. The Christmas issue was especially interest- ing with its stories of how Christmas is cele- brated in other lands and Latin translations of two of our better known Christmas hymns, Silent Night, Holy Night, and U Come All Ye Faithful. Another article, not of Yuletide origin, however, told ol several dillerent styles of hats and how they came to be worn. If Besides editing the Mfl'C'Hl'I'll,f, the stall took baskets to one needy family at Thanksgiving and at Christmas time and purchased play books for this year's beginning Latin students' use. The plays were used to acquaint these pupils with the commoner, everyday Latin language as the ancient Romans probably spoke it. The second semester's stall' also published the MC'l'flll'1ill.f two times, but conhned its ex- penses to purchasing a large dictionary for the Latin department. This stall was guided by Hugh Shown, editorq Maurice DuVall, exchange editor, Earl Lowery, secretary-treasurerg Mari- etta Albert and Marian Hiltz, ioke editors: Ger- trude Klein, Board of Control member: and Miss Wyland, faculty advisor. The lirst issue contained a large variety of articles ranging from how our present day napkins originated in early Rome to how George Washington spent his First earnings. If Many interesting exchange papers were re- ceived this yearg some being written completely in Latin. others containing a Latin section, and still others with Latin jokes sprinkled across the pages to give a Roman atmosphere. The senior members of the Vergil class say, Vale, to Aneas and his wanderings with tear- dimmed eyes and trembling lips, for never again w'll they struggle with tomorrow's Latin lesson, at least, in high school. lt has been a long, hard pull, but they have finally reached the summit. 5m THE .VISKODEED l-IEAIQS ALI.-SEES ALI.-KIXICDWS ALI.

Martha Brewer is trying to find jokes that will tickle your funny bone when you read them next week. The news stallf is trying to decide what is and what isn't news, vwhile Marian Wurz, the news editor, is rushing around seeing if everyone has covered his beat, Mary Hess is writing an editorial that she hopes will prove interesting to all of the students. No, there is no time for loahng on Thursday, for copy goes to the printer on Fri- day, although th-e subscribers do not receive their copies until the next Thursday, The subscription campaigns of both publi- cations were very successful this year. In fact, we put one over on Ol' Man Depression. The Mli5fQ0d6l'd campaign was unique: students were entertained a whole week. lust in case you don't remember how the seniors looked when they donned their younger brothers' and sisters' clothing for the Kiddie Kar Parade, look at the snapshots on this page and see if you can recognize these very dignified students. A balloon descension was another feature of campaign week. From out the mad scramble for the balloons, which, incidentally. was quite detrimental to the shrubbery, emerged six vic- O If 'l'HlIv I'Y-'l'HlJlf1Z lorious boys who received first payments to the llfl1'.rkr1zIz'r'zI as the result of securing balloons with free payment tagsi' attached to them. The lucky six were Hill Miller, Dick Albert, Dick lfnyert, Fred Willett, Richard Klein, and William Collette. Six senior girls vied for the honor of being voted the most popular sen- ior girl in Mishawaka High school. Those nom- inated for K'Miss Kodeedf' the name given to the winner of the contest, were Martha Brewer, llelen Miller, Dorothy Mae Foerster, lane Myers. liunice Palmer, and Martha Stowell. The climax of the campaign was a Miskodeed matinee dance at which it was announced that lane Myers had been elected Miss Kodeedf, the result of the all-school vote. All the students who had made first payments were admitted to the dance free of charge. l'Athough the .lllfold did not have a cam- paign week, the programs sponsored by it were equally entertaining. The assembly programs for both the first and second semester campaigns were plays. All of the boys in the journalism class and one girl, lane Myers. took part in the first scmester's play. The play was really very touching. lane Myers and lsadore Rosenwasser were the heroine and hero, and lsadore Shapiro, the detective who had unjustly accused lane of a crime. supposedly committed many years ago. lfor years he had followed her about, being her guardian angel, protecting her from all the pit- falls of life, to alone for the unjust accusation he had made. 'lihe play ended in a sob scene with the actors crying and the audience laughing. l l'he play for the second semester was a comedy entitled 'l'he VVorm 'I'urns. The cast Sl was composed of members from the second hour linglish VII class.

It was indeed fortunate for the welfare of hath the .fllllofd and Ml'J'k!IIfC'C'lI that very able students were at the head of both publications. Mary Hess, editor-in-chief of the allllold, and Tom Richards, assistant editor, are both out- standing M. H. S. students. Isadore Rosenwas- ser has filled his position as editor-in-chief of the M1'.rkrm'c'cd most admirably. lane Myers and Marv Hess, associate editors of the Mislgo- deezf, had much to do with the success of the publication. Miss Heimbach, as faculty advisor, supervised the publication of both the school paper and the year book. i'You know, every once in a while classes get big hearted and leave something or other to the school.

Intriguing contests and merry games were features of the evening, the refreshments included such deli- cacies as pumpkin pie, doughnuts, and cider. After such an appetizing repast, someone began to play the piano, and there was dancing for everyone. The young artists in their bright, colorful smocks, some belted, some loosely fall- ing in folds, presented a gay picture as they moved about the room. V The art department presented an exhibit on April I3 at the Woman's club, of work of its own members. This display included pencil sketches, sketches in charcoal, water colors, black and whites, and paintings. In addition to the displaying of its own work, the department sponsored an exhibit from an outside school. This consisted of work which had been done by art students of the Iohn Herron School of Art at Indianapolis. The ex- hibition had been traveling all over the middle west at the time of its presentation here, which was from the First of May until the thirteenth. IIOI all the exhibitions of the entire school year, the most attractive and the most interest- ing to everyone's parents is, of course, i'Open House, which is held once every year, since it is at this time they are privileged to see the work the various departments and clubs have been doing through the year. One of the most colorful of all the exhibits is that of the art department. lfljrobably the most outstanding project of the Art II classes was that of the Indiana State Poster contest. The posters, bright in color, blunt in outline, displayed a variety of ideas, all to illustrate the chosen subject, which was Children of all Nations to represent world peace, Three winners in the contest were chosen in the school: they were Ioe Easterday, Betty Klein, and Wylie Voorheis. On the seventeenth of Ap-ril, the winner over all was chosen at Indianapolis. This was Shortridge High school of Indianapolis, with Martinsville taking second place, and Shortridge, third. If Oflicers of the club for the year were presi- dent, Ioe Easterdayg vice-president, Wylie Voor- heisg secretary-treasurer, Mary Grimes, and Board of Control, Estelle Hood.

I.'l'llUUGH the Home Economics club, the largest girls' organization in school, has had meetings all year, the style show and demonstrations of Open House night are probably the high achievements of the club for the year. llThe girls of the club began 'the year suc- cessfully by electing a group of capable officers and an equally capable council. The officers tlected were Helen Clement, president, Peggy llood, vice-president, Edna Mae Williamson, secretary, and Winifred Payette, Board of Con- trol representative. The council included Mary Martin, Mary lune Casitleman, Leona VanRie, Dorothy Meyerhoefer, Virginia VanDinter, Katherine McKenzie, Harriet Baugher, and Marie Wiley. A new permanent committee for music for the year was appointed. lt included Marjorie Moore, chair- mang Winifred Moran, and Marietta Albert. An outstanding pro- gram of the year was one in securing a speak- er well known in Mish- awaka, Dr. Verna Christophel, who spoke to the girls on general health. The talk was very instructive and was well-liked by every girl. The Girl Reserves were guests at this meeting. Another interesting assembly was one spon- sored by the Home liconomics club for all the girls in the school. Mr. li. l.. Newbaurer, representing the Nation- al Live Stock and Meat board, spoke to the girls about the diilerent cuts of lamb. He also showed many ways of prepar- ing lamb which would be attractive and yet economical. ln order to carry out the idea of home build- ing and its problems, the council presented a play, Pa Wants a Cushion, beliore the club at one of its regular meetings. The cast in- cluded Pa, Leona Vanllieg Ma, Helen Clementg Nan, llorothy Meyerhoelferg and Betty, Peggy Hood. ll Near the beginning of their social activities for the year, the club gave a Hallowe'en party at which time the big and little sister movement was revived. The movement was first used when the club was but a small organizationg however, now that the club has grown to be such a large group the movement can be used only at social functions. 5-4 THAT ETERNAL TRI T may be a geometrical figure to you, but I to the members of the Girl Reserves organi- zation it's their all. The triangle is their symbol, the three sides of which represent the mind, the body, and the spirit. This symfbol, the triangle placed on one point, signifies that if a person's mind, 'body, and spirit are perfect his life is balanced. The purpose of this club is to find and give the best. This organization is a branch of the Young Women's christian association. Certain activities are necessary for a success- ful year of Girl Reserve's work- These are a recognition service at 'which girls who are quali- fied for membership are solemnly taken into the organization, an outdoor event, which may be a hike, camping trip, swimming party, or a picnic, a parent's and daughter's meeting, which is usually a mother's and daughter's banquet, and one or more acts of service. VThe Mishawaka club held its recognition service jointly with the South Bend group in May. The following girls received G. R. rings: Dorothy Born, Ray Branson, Frances Gardner, Martha Knoblock, Longinia Pobiedzinski, Eve- lyn Pope, and Margaret Pope. This is the high- est award that a girl can possibly receive. The girls received these honors at a banquet at which all the Girl Reserve members of this section were present. This banquet was held in the South Bend Y. W. C. A. THE JIISKUDFEID ANGLE The members gave a party for their mothers, it took the place of the usual mother's and daughteris banquet. If At Christmas time each member of the or- ganization gave food and toys, and a basket was given to a deserving family. This was the act of service which the club did this year. V On November 3 the cafeteria was the scene of a rollicking 'fibunch of kids, whom, if you looked closely, you would recognize as members dressed in rompers and children's dresses. This was the Kid Party which was a great suc- cess, judging from the amount of fun that was had lby everyone who attended. One of the novel meetings was a fudge party. Each member made a plate of candy, and some of it was delicious, but some was- well, use your own judgment-you know too many cooks spoil the fudge, especially when the cooks are mixing fun with cooking. WThis nation-wide organization was intro- duced into Mis-hawaka High school in the fall of 1931 by Miss Reba Williams, foods teacher and sponsor of the club. This year will surely be remembered as a year of success and fun by every member of the Girl Reserves of M. H. S. Dorothy Born was the president of the club this year, and Frances Gardner was vice-presi- dentg Leona Van Rie, secretary-treasurer: Max- ine Hitch, Board of Control memibcrg Miss Wil- liams, sponsor. or TIIIRTY-THRISIS is HAPPY ENDING UR talented juniors have added another laurel to their already lull wreath ol hon- ors by their presentation of I. C. and Elliott Nugent's Kempy on March 16. Kempy, a rollicking comedy of American home life, sur- passed even Daddy Long-Legs, their produc- tion last year when they were sophomores, and established their reputation for acting ability. NVithout a doubt, these juniors compose an up- and-coming class. The story ol Kempy centers around the trials and tribulations of the Hence family as they try to straighten out the alliairs of their authoress daughter and sister, Kate, who aspires to an artistic career but has no especial talent. llow her hasty elopement with Kempy Iames, a handsome young architect-plumber, linally proves to be the solution ol' everyone's problems, including her own, makes an entertaining and lively play. lfUnder the direction ol Miss Willielmina Lester, production director, and lvlargaret llam- bright, promp-ter, the eight persons who com- posed the cast romped or glided their various ways through the play, much to the enjoyment ol' a capacity audience. The list ol' characters included Ruth llence, luanita Kelley: Dad lience, Norman Smith: Ma lience, livelyn Pope: lane Wade, Lottie Mae VVilliams: Kate lience, Helen Wilcox: lien Wade, Charles Stine, Kcmpy james, Robert Kemp, and Dultel' Merrill, Darrell Moore. Darrell gave an unusu- ally good impersonation ol Kate's elderly liauccg Helen Wilcox was outstanding in het' role ol the headstrong Kate. Norman Smith supplied most ol' the comedy with his portrayal ol' blus- tering but kind-heated 'llladn lience, and luanita Kelley, cast as Kate's sister, Ruth, was adorable as Kempy's real sweetheart- Another enjoyable part ol' the evening's en- tertainment was an introduction to between-act music, something which has ll0l been tried here lor several years. Two talented juniors, Mar- garet Hambright, soprano, and lien Mason, pianist, each presented two numbers: Margaret, accompanied at the piano by Geraldine Kelley, sang Springtime in Derry, an Irish song by lfmmet Claverley, and l5artlette's A Dream between the lirst and second acts, while lien played l.isz-t's Fourth lrlungarian Rhapsody and lit-ethoven's l'iccosiasses .between the sec- ond and third. lf one may judge the enjoyment an audience receives from a perI'ormer's ollicr- ing by the amount of applause the audience gives, everyone appreciated these solo pieces. Kempy, as an alter thought, turned out the way all stories shoulda-the hero and heroine decide to get married tand stop their quarrel- mgb, the mother and lathcr are happy, and, in short, everyone is happy. 56 THE MISKODEED BAND-BUT NCT RUBBER By MAXINE ll ITCH USIC that satisfies! This seems to be the motto of the band this year. And the students appreciate it too, for when one hears of a program being planned, one of the first questions asked is, Will the band be there?,' The band has played at the home football and basketball games and at all the pep sessions of the year. Bands instill a spirit of enthusiasm within a person, and the school, no doubt, is indebted to the band for much of the pep and energy which have marked the advent of the Yell clubs and the new interest in keeping up that old Fighting spirit. VThose new uniforms have certainly helped make the band an A-x musical organization. Didn't our boys look Uspiffyu when they par- aded at the South Bend-Mishawaka football game? We were certainly proud of them. The band is larger this year than ever be- fore. Mr. Wood has given much of his time to developing the band in quality of perform- ance, and this accounts for its success. Under his supervision, many of those who play in the band have developed their technique until they are near musicians. The band is .better instru- mented this year than in previous years, for nearly all of the students who started with the band last fall have continued throughout the year. The band's library contains about 15500 worth of music. It includes classical, semi-classi- cal and popular music in addition to special numbers such as ensembles, solos, and duets. Warren Ritter is in charge of this vast amount of music. As librarian for the band, he is re- sponsible for the cataloging and distribution of all the music, but his most important work is being drum major for the band. Mr. Wood says that Warren is the best drum major the band has had for many years. As Warren is being graduated this year, it will be very dith- culft to secure another person as capable as he, for his sense of rhythm is almost perfect. lfCharles Baldwin, another senior, has held the responsible position of student manager dur- ing the past year. He distributes instruments and uniforms to the band members and makes all arrangements for the band. The annual band concert was held on March 23. Iohn Graub of South Bend was the featured xylophone soloist for the evening. Other fea- tures were a trumpet solo by Thomas Hutchin- son, saxophone duets by Richard Grove and Harlowe Kelley, a piano solo by George Parant, a harmonica duo, and a bassoon solo by Harley Spencer. The saxophone ensemlhle played two numbers, Golden Spur Marchn and Kiss Me Goodnightf' The rest of the program was com- posed of full band numbers. llThe olficers are George Long, president, Thomas Hu-tchinson, vice-president, Elmo Nix. secretary-treasurerg Glen Saltsgiver, Board of Controlg Warren Ritter, drum major and libra- riang Charles Baldwin, student manager. OF THIRTY-THREE SVMPHQNIES AND OLORFUL music and 'beautiful gowns, features of the annual Spring Concert given 'hy the music department, were much in evidence on the evening of May 4 when the different groups and soloists entertained a small but responsive audience in our auditorium. Under Miss Iones's direction the high school orchestra began the eveningls program hy play- ing the Coronation Marchn from Myerheer's opera, the Prophet, and continuing with Tschai- kosky's Sweet Reveryf' They also played Granger's beautiful Country Gardens and Handel's Largo from Xerxer during the eve- ning, ending Part I of the program hy playing Seredy's Cup Winner March. W Robert Anderson's vocal solos, I Love Life, hy Manazucca, and Hawley's, The Sweetest Flower That Blows shared honors with the orchestral numbers, both songs being well suited to his clear lyric tenor voice. 'fHoh happens to be one of Mishawakals celebrities, for he received second place in the tenor section of the chorus which sang on April 26 before the North Central Music Supervisors' conference in Grand Rapids, Michigan. He was also awarded a scholarship to the national high school music camp at Interlocken, Michigan, which will he held for eight weeks during the summer. Other highlights in the first part of thc program included Cossack Songf, hy Williams, and Allah's Holiday, Frim-l, sung by the boys' '57 SOLOISTS quartet. The girls' septet also sang a group of songs, among which was Rohinson's comic sketch They Met on a Twig of a Chestnut Tree and Heartsease by Branscombe. llAfter a short intermission the curtains parted for the second time, this time showing the combined glee clubs assemmhled upon the Their hrst song, a Latin hymn by stage. Schuetky, Emitte Spiritumf, and one of their later groups, a rollicking old English sea song descant, The Mermaidf' proved to be with their most popular offerings. Robert Reiffels' piano solo, Calvin Croom's popular Two Guitars, and Mary Frances Mc- Donough's cello solo, Deep River, the well known negro spiritual were outstanding for the depth of feeling and hrilliancy of execution showed by the two soloists. Mary Frances is another of our brightly shining stars, for she also was awarded a scholarship to lnterlocken for this summer, as well as placing fourth in the cello section of the orchestra which played hofore the North Central Music Supervisors' conference on April 26. VOur high school string ensemble comes in for its share of honor, for they interpreted Wel- lesley's Canzonetta and Norman's Gavotte Antique in a manner that older musicians might envy.

So many bright and shining students-and Il11lliS not being personal to the girls, they keep their compacts just as busy as the seniors do- almost. Anyway, to get back to the subject of the sentence, aforesaid students should project their class far into the limelight by the time they are seniors, unless, of course, that year's crop of salad greens doesn't overshadow them. QThat ought to hold 'emll The freshmen elected Harold Cook as their president. He is a tall-and growing, friendly chap, who is a hit of a Boy Scout-quite a bit, if you ask us-and who is known to his inti- mates as Abie Daiisy Blow-off Cook. Isn't that something? Ask him why. The Shadow knows -but he won't tell. VTheir vice-president is Clarence Winey, the latest addition to M. H. S., which hasn't been without a Winey for some years. Harry Clark, who also comes of an illustrious line of brothers and sisters, is a former Battell basketball star, who is breaking into the business world early as secretary-treasurer of his class. The freshman Board of Control member is Richard Kemp, whose big, brown eyes and engaging smile make him look like Cupid in the senate cham- ber of the gods and goddesses. This completes the roll of the freshmen elect, all boys, as you see. Those girls know, already, that. if they give the boys the upper hand for a while, the stronger sex may become magnani- mous. llTheir basketball team should be plenty keen during the next three years too, since this season's entire second string was made up of freshmen. The least among us are going out for things in a big way. Two of their num- ber frequently seen on the gym floor are that big little boy, Kenneth Biggs, who runs out in answer to the cries of We want Biggs! to lead yells, and Moncer Young, that tall, hand- some center on the varsity basketball team who seems headed for a brilliant career in athletics. He makes Kenny look rather lowdown when 50 he gets near him, but that's because Mose is the tallest freshman and Kenny is the shortest-- the long and the short of it, so to speak. The frosh have talent along other lines too. They decided they didn't care for high-brow assemblies-that's a polite way of saying there wasn't room for them-so they became an exclu- sive set and entertained themselves by varied vaudeville programs put on by their own per- formers. V At one such, Morris Lambiotte showed signs of being able to Fill Harry Castleman's shoes when he gave a lively tap dance. Deno Focosi furnished some very rumpety trumpet solos on the same program. He is but one of the many freshmen who have gained recognition in the music department. They compose half of this year's dulcet string ensemble and include Har- land Laycock, Geraldine Denning, and Doris Pullman, who, by the way, plays cello solos charminglyg and that pleasant unassuming young freshman, George Parant, has been using his vibrant bass voice to advantage in the boys' quarter. George also pounds the ivories-piano, not typewriter-for the band very satisfactorily. As might be expected, the girls did the bulk of the talking in the freshman debut program, since they took six roles in the play, Elmer, to the boys' three, and Ioyce Worthington, a blooming damsel, gave an amusing reading. Ioyce was a charter member of the Speech club when it was organized. She probably still re- members the impromptu speech she made on My Ideal Boy-Friend. He must have person- ality, mustn't he, Ioyce? WAnd, say, you never saw anyone who stepped into Speech club activities so quickly as Sammy and Izzy From. These dynamic twins jumped right into the middle of things and gave it all they had-which is some punch! The Froms are the kind who can nonchalantly step up to a senior and say, I've seen you around a lot, so I guess it's about time I find out your name. That's one way of getting acquainted, although somewhat disconcerting to the senior. Y Certainly, no one can deny the abundance of Vitamin A in this year's crop of crisp, freshfmanj lettuce!

H. S. THE MISKODEED Tl-IE PAUSE THAT IQEFRESI-IES Hey! you, an assembly this morning? Yeah, Some guy's gonna give a talk. Nice time to make up some lost sleep. LWAYS a boon to the tired student, yet not always so easily procured, the good assembly programs this year seemed to prove again the old adage that a little bit may go a long way, the little bit being short funds and long way being the wonderful programs offered the students. Upon looking back over the long trail, it is not hard to freshen our minds over those two uunforgetablesl'-the Christmas tableaux presented by the Art club and the Speech club in collaboration with the music department, and the inspiring, emphatic talk so ably delivered by Dr. Dearing of Oakland City college. Back to those talbleaux with just a mention of the setting. A dark auditorium-1400 students waiting for the show to start-the curtains are pulled at last, showing a white background representing hills, shepherds, wise men, more shepherds appear on the scene while sweetly feminine voices mingle with the deep basses and pleasing tenor voices of their colleagues make an already inspiring scene more impressing. lt's over, already the students are speaking their praises, and for weeks afterward it remained a major topic of discussion. V f'Let us turn to the next picture in this living art gallery. So spoke Dr. Dearing, by far the most popular speaker of the year. His speech was outstanding to the M. H. S. student for three reasons: his pleasing yet emphatic method of delivery, his hitting the nail on the head instead of beating around the bush, and his examples, in which he brought old true stories down to the very present and showed how they apply now. Perhaps we have dwelled too long on the above programs, foruthere were really very many more good ones. Of course we must mention Iames Cone as Slovsky in one of the annual English VII plays and Ruth Ann Iernegan and Robert Zimmerman as the two 'glove birds in the other presentation of the English department. Then, we can't forget the book dramatization of Little Womenn by members of the Woman's club, the two programs of dancing by the Fine Arts studio of South Bend and the readings given by Mrs. Floran S. Kelley at Thanksgiving time. If Pep, and plenty of it! With this motto in mind Mr. Hwber and Mr. DeCroes were able to bring to the students the .best pep sessions in recent years. Two outstanding ses- sions were before the South Bend Central encounter in football and before that crucial game with Elkhart in basketball, when we had to face the Blue Blazers with an influenza- stricken lineup. Mr. Kern, Mr. Shake, Mr. Steele, Mr. Burgess, Mr. Thurston, Mr. Huber, Mr. DeCroes, and Mr. Hatcher were faculty representatives at the pep sessions, while the outsiders were afbly represented by Mr. Gaylor of Mishawaka and Ed Steinel, of South Bend Central. ' Again this year, as in the past, the music department has helped out considerably by providing many an hour of real music. The band, the orchestra, the string ensemble, the boys' and the girls' glee clubs, the quartette and the septette, all had a share in presenting fun for all. More speakers. Other outstanding speakers were Albert Doyle, city judge, who spoke on Armistice Day, Mr. Lofgren aide-de-camp to Commander Byrd, who depicted the adventure of that expedition at the South Pole, and Mr. S. H. Iohnson famed bird student, who gave a sketch of bird life and habits. V So, dear student, you see how it is really a proof of a little bit going a long way. Hey! guy, ufasn'z that a swell assembly? Yeah, that guy sure could talk. Made me feel kinda embarassed for what 1 said before. 0 If 'l'lllR 'I' Y - T ll Klflf K, TI-IE A B CS WE KNGW!

That part fitted Wylie well, too, for although, like Bob, he doesn't talk without reason, he can always be counted upon to have something he wishes to put before the putblic. llThere are several more people in our class who have had parts in plays more than once. Muriel Iacobson, blonde and petite, has ap peared three times, and six others twice. These are Eunice Palmer, of the great big eyes, Mar- garet O'Dell, likewise, Norman Bryan, who is reported to be just the grandest dancer, Robert Anderson, our accomplished tenor, and Mary Frances McDonough, cellist and pianist. fDid you ever see Mary Frances straddle those bumps in heir FordPj She and Bob won scholarships to a music camp this summer, where they will compete with the katy-dids and lbull-frogs, when they attended the North Central Concert last April. We are certainly proud of them. Of course Charles MacDonald can't ibe omit- ted from this list, for who could forget the way he made love to Ruth Ann Iernegan in The Charm School and to Muriel Iacdbson in Applesauce ? His experience with blondes must have taught him something though. At least, lane Myers has been his headlight-or rather the light of his eyes-for the past several months. Vlumping from dramatics to athletics, one sees more seniors in the favored line-ups. Co- captain Wayne Good, Harry Castleman, Fred Rooster Qexcuse it!-Cccchij, and Iohn Brant, Ed Rhodes, Fleming Aulenbach, Albert Can- noot, are some of the ones we yelled for last fall at the football games. Another thing, it's fun remembering those basketball bright spots, Harold Betzer and Dornsife, and DeCausse- maker when they were shy young things in onels freshman classes. They certainly have come up in the world since then-about eight inches, more or less. In the spring, the senior blood pounds to the names of Milo McClure leading the track team to victory, with Lawrence Lang, Remi Couvreur, and Carl Housdorfer hot on his heels. How many seniors remember the time when Mr. Broman spanked Carl in his Algebra I class? fIsn't this mean-after four years to have the fact that Carl threw a wad of gum at the blackboard down in history?j H THE MISKODEED WTO us lazy ones who drop gym as soon as we are allowed to and shudder at taking cold showers, those hardy girls who take gym work during almost all of their bright school careers, without the chance of attaining the glory that boys can, should really be looked up to with admiration. Marie Markanich, president of the G. A. A., is a leader in all girls' sports, and Ruth Vollmer, Mary Louise Beehler, Ieanette Hunt, Iennie Mae Hawthorne, Marjorie Pedersen, and Gertrude Zehrung are some others who have stuck. In connection with athletics we can't forget the band, for it certainly lends an air of festivity to sports events and pep meetings. Warren Ritter has been drum-major this year, QDO you suppose that slight upward tilt of his nose re- sulted from hitting it with his knee when he was practicing his high steppingm and George Long is the president. QYou know him-that short, fat fellowlj Glen Saltsgiver, likeable and red-headed, Hugh Shown, Harlowe Kelley, also president of the Engineering club, and Charles Baldwin, president of N. H. S. are all promi- nent band memlbers. ' V And, of course, donlt forget those little girls in blue, Rose Areta and Marietta Albert, who liked to toot horns and wear trousers-so they joined the band. Marietta, by the way, has one of the best-known giggles in school, and she can vary it from a high falsetto to deep bass with surprising dexterity. Her repertoire is so exten- sive that only Marian Biltz, her sidekick and every-body's friend, and Agnes Baumgart, who is almost in a class by herself, can come any- where near competing with it. While speaking of cut-ups, one simply can't omit some of the famous male entertainers of the class of '33, If you thrive on thrills, get Harry Castleman to throw his Doctor Ilekyll and Mr. Hyde act or watch Iim Cone making a monkey of himself-he can fall into character at a moment's notice-he's practiced it so much. fCan,t you hear him saying, Such crust?',j However, he's poked the writer of this article in the ribs too often for him to think he has noth- ing coming in return! As for Frankenstein, we have several impersonators of him, wit'h Dur- ward Beard, who plays the harmonica, and Isa- dore Shapiro as two of the ones most guaran- teed to set you gasping and looking under the bed nights. But if you want tamer, 'but none the less amusing laughs, listen to Tommy Rich- OF THIRTY-THREE ards as Cyrus Cobb, Esquire, of Osceola Oenter. And is it ever swell reducing to dance an old-fashioned square dance with Tommy, with all the trimmings! Ask Maxine Hitch-she knows! l1The aforementioned Isadore, or Zeke, really has a soft nature underneath-he plays a violin in the string ensemfble. It soothes him. Two other people who figure in the music de- partment who haven't been mentioned are Mary Grimes, who sings in the septet and is that way about Iohn Goeller-when George R. isnit in town-and Robert Carter, from ,way out west in Texas, who trills a good 'bass in the boys' quartet. Isadore Rosenwasser is still another who is well-known to all members of his class and to many outside of it. He is president of t'he Speech club and an accomplished debater, a member of all the honor societies, and editor of the Mislqodeed. Send brickbats and bouquets addressed either to Izzie or Rosie He'll get them pronto-especially if you sign them Miriam. Now having spilled all the beans about our exiting seniors and their doings, the only thing left to do is to express our appreciation of the friendly help and advice, Mr. Gardner, Miss Heimbach, and Mr. Chapman, our class spon- sors have given us, and to record the last few events of our high school life. V The seniors last got together socially at their farewell dance on May 13. The Iunior Prom on May 27 was grand as usual. The baccalau- reate services, with Rev. Hawkins of First Bap tist Church as speaker, will 'be an integral part of our Senior Week recollections. Class night on May 29 will just have to be good, what lwith Harry Castleman, Marian Biltz, and Loretta VanRie, who has a sulbtle humor of her own, in charge, and the glorious Commencement- mostly of worries of what are we going to do now -won't be forgotten until long after those worries are over. I'll be shedding tears pretty soon so-au revoirl SYMPHONIES AND SOLOISTS distance, the curtains closed to end the concert- And end the miseryn as some singer was heard to remark. This last number sung by the glee club featured Margaret Hambright, soprano, 7! Ruth Ann Iernegan, al-to, and Geraldine Len- ning, Marietta VanDusen, and Harland Lay- cock, violinists. , ll Committees responsible for the business part of presenting this concert included Gerald Kel- ver, chairman of tickets, Iasper Bonnell, Mary Grimes, Peggy Hood, and Doris Pullman, pub- licity: Margaret Hambright, chairman, Ruth Ann Iernegan, George Parant, and Eldon Schal- liolg stage arrangements: Iames Miller, chair- man, Harland Laycock, and Elmer Weinkauf. HAIL, DEMOSTIHENES! brighter future, fifty people are now working for next year's debating, studying fundamentals and giving debates. Almost the same type of work was the dis- cussion contest which was carried on through- out the state. Henry Heintzberger and Isadore Rosenwasser tied for second place in the county. The club achieved its chef d'oeuvre dramatic- ally when it produced a three act play, Booth Tarkington's Clarence The lighting twins, Cora and Bobby, were portrayed by Ruth Iohn- son and Carl Hossleii, with Herbert Germann and Eunice Palmer as their fond parents, Mr. and Mrs. VVheeler. Margaret Hambright took the part of Mrs. Martin, Mr. Wheeler's secre- tary, and Helen Wilcox, that of Miss Pinney, Cora's governess. The title role was played capaibly by Eldon Schalliol. Others in the cast were Marian Biltz, Norman Smith, and Charles Stine. If The Speech club even though it is the baby of all the school organizations seems to have been the most active, always willing and eager to sponsor a school project and ever on the alert for new ones of its own to launch. Ofii- cers for the year were president, Isadore Rosen- wasserg vice-president, Iane Myers, secretary. Bob Zimmerman, treasurer, Charles Stine, Board of Control, Iohn Clarkg Sergeant-at-arms, Bill Miller, and club sponsor, Mr. Huber. 12 HATS GFP T0 THE FACULTY clothing I, II, and III, being assisted in the clothing I classes by Miss Snyder.

V 'LWhen you come to the end of the day. just as Ilm comiing to the close of this article, one has only to journey to the northwest por- tion of the building to watch the wheels go round, for there are the shops located. Mr. Middleton, head supervisor of the shops in gen- eral, is instructor in vocational auto shop. Mr. DeCroes teaches trade mathematics, trade sci- ence, and drafting. Mr. Thurston, assistant foot- ball coach, teaches drafting, pattern making, and woodshop. Mr. Sprague .teaches drafting, while Mr. Needler teaches machine shop. Mr. Marsee is in charge of the print shop, and also teaches trade mathematics. Mr. Goppert, teaching elec- tric shop, completes the staff. Afternoon classes of drafting, machine shop, printing, and auto shop, are all vocational classes. Physical education in school is in the hands of Mr. Steele and Miss Ruth Watkins.

' 'Nou-', you know them all, from A to Zl THREE MONTHS OF BUMPS The 1932 football season brought the careers of I2 senior lettermen to a glorious conclusion. In addition to these veterans I3 under-classmen received similar awards, with 19 scrubs getting numerals. The following seniors received let- ters: Charles Meuninch, Wayne Good, Isadore Shapiro, Fleming Aulenbach, Howard West, Iulius Graveel, Albert Cannoot, Edwin Rhodes, Harry Castleman, MauriceTRoelandts, and Fred- rick Cecchi. l1The following under-classmen received let- ters: Frank Kronewitter, Moncer Young, Ralph Tuttle, Echo Slaibaugh, Lewis Nicolini, Charles Wagner, Omer Boulanger, Robert Hildebrand, THE MISKODEED Iohn Sostach, Albert Polinck, Alphonse Lippens, Victor Fay, and Iacob Swartz. Numerals were awarded to the following boys: Henry Fagan, Darrel Moore. Philip lor- dan, Iames Buckles, Robert Kemp, Harry Kin- dy, Carl Heiser, George Gray, Don Rodgers, Ray Nicolini, William Miliken, Dallas Foster, Leon DeWitt, Henry Heintzberger, Iohn Nolke, Fredrick Willett, Ioseph Hilaert, Herbert Grant, and Iohn Dorogi. l1The success of the 1932 football team was brought about through the efforts of two dili- gent workers, Mr- Frank Steele, head football coach, and Mr. Walter Thurston, his assistant. Coach Steele came to M. H. S. in 1924, bringing with him years of experience as a coach and as a 'builder of boys. He has instilled into Caveman athletes a type of sportsmanship that only a man of his caliber can. His record of 49 victories, 24 losses, 8 ties, and one state championship team stands as a memorial to his coaching ability and his conscientious devotion to the young men under his direction. Athletics in Mishawaka High school have taken a steady turn for the better since the coming of Coach Steele. His most noteworthy achievement in developing players was the moulding of Roy Horstmann into the player that later was a memlber of the All-American football squad. VThe job of coaching an entire team is al- most too large for one man. Ano-ther vital cog in the machinery of shaping a football team is the assistant coach. In 1932 this job was filled by Mr. Walter Thurston, who took complete charge of the Maroon line. The Caveman for- ward wall played heads up football through- out the entire season and a great deal of the praise should be given Coach Thurston. '...t.
