BIIBHAWAKA, IDIAMA j Hoy mere an i oar The Senior Class offers a glimpse of an expanding and progressing community center—Mishawaka Agh School, Mishawaka, Indiana BITTERSWEET BRANCH LIBRARY MISHAWAKA, INDIANA Superintendent, HAROLD E. MOORE he chronicle of Dr. Harold E. Moore’s life is replete with achievements as one of the state’s foremost educators. He is very much concerned with stimulating interest in the teaching pro- fession, toward which goal he organized the first unit of the Future Teachers of America in Indiana. In accepting the local school administrative position, Dr. Moore relinquished a major post at Indiana University where he served as princi- the spirit of 1947 Mishawaka has been drawn into the whirlpool of seek- ing toward better and happier living which is bearing down on American institutions. More and more a bond of unity is being forged between city and school as the contagious spirit of high school youth paints the town maroon and white. Our lofty tower has become a land- mark of community pride. MHS joins hands with our city to become an after- school-hours mecca for increasing numbers of interested citizens. High schoolers and townspeople alike crowd the stadium and the gymnasium for the thrill of a winning pass or the suspense of a closely fought basketball battie. The dents hurrying down to four o’clock jobs in almost every pal of the university school, operated in connec- tion with the university as an experimental teaching laboratory—this in addition to his regu- lar teaching duties. He has also written exten- sively for school publications. Dr. Moore likes Mishawaka High School and characterizes it as a “‘friendly school with some fine customs and precedents’’. On the schedul e for near future action are improvements in all city schools in keeping with modern progressive educational methods. vocational shops and the classrooms work overtime to serve evening students and Indiana University Center per- sonnel, and special attention is given to veterans. The school cafeteria banquets many a hungry civic organization. Lincoln-way East has a flavor of Broadway when grease- painted thespians amaze their audiences with the perfec- tion of their dramatic performances. The vesper service has brought beautiful solemnity to the Christmas season for many years. This year the people leaving the auditorium were deeply moved by the sight of the flood-lit building enchanced by the newly fallen snow. MHS alumni planned and executed the lighting which caused motorists by the dozens to stop in passing in order to enjoy the effect. Debaters, junior Rotarians, and the string ensemble en- tertain and carry the spirit of youth to groups of citizens. Three-thirty bells send a vanguard of high-spirited stu- j ra ll ari te aan: Mr. Russell R. Myers, as principal, performs with expertness the duties of the responsible office he holds at Mishawaka High School. When problems of the present or the perplexing future have caused us to seek his counsel, we have found in Mr. Myers a friend and a philos- opher who always offers the best of advice and guidance. We shall appreciate even more fully in years to come our indebtedness to Mr. Myers for the wisdom and foresight of his efforts in making MHS an honored and valued institution. a friendly counsellor é Dean of Girls, LYNETTA WILSON Principal, RUSSELL R. MYERS A bright smile and a cheering ‘‘What can I do for you?”’ greet those who enter the office of Miss Lynetta Wil son, dean of girls. As advisor, her real work begins with personal and vocational counselling, preparing recommendations for col- leges, placing girls in jobs, and advising them in problems of family relations and personal adjust- ment. an assistant principal Mr. Frank Chapman is in charge of checking attendance for boys and sees to it, as the dean of boys, that they walk the “straight and nar- row’. Along with his routine duties, he inter- views parents, directs fire drills, and acts as chaperon for dances and club activities.

The Ball Band has worked out an ar- angement through which qualified students can work part time and receive regular pay plus school credits. The spirit of cooperation and the familiar adage, ‘““Two can live more cheaply than one’’, have prompted the pro- posed Mishawaka-Penn Township school corporation merger. Crowded school conditions and the need for similar building programs prompted the two school units to consider this plan which will bring advantages to all. Right here we should like to thank the citizens of Misha- waka, especially the east-enders, for patiently tolerating our bold flings—the way we monopolize the library at source theme time, invade the busses, or disturb the serenity of the night with wild shouts proclaiming a Cave- man victory. In other ways, too, we unintentionally create annoyances, but we’ll outgrow it and you'll be proud of us yet! the ‘Under the competent leadership of John Weds- worth, assisted by Pat Berry, Morgan O’Dell, and Donna Weber, the student governors have considered a number of. propositions and have approved some of them. School and town leaders alike praised the council’s resolution to prohibit the drinking of intoxicating liquors at athletic contests. Arrangements for purchasing books at the school store were.improved, elimi- nating considerable confusion and tiresome wait- ing. More and more problems which arise are being referred to the council for consideration and Miss Wilson, as sponsor, finds the demands of council business encroaching on the dean’s time. tudent ouncil will do tt Properly supported, the Student Council will be a potent voice for the welfare of all. It needs the thoughtful backing of the entire student body to carry the resolutions into practice. The po- liceman stationed at the corner of Lincolnway and Studebaker streets as a safety measure was unsuccessful because the students wouldn’t cooperate. After vigorous and smart campaigning, Walt Triest, Larry Hoffman, Mary Amaral, and Donita Emmert were chosen next year’s officers in the recent elections.

I’m so glad and I’m sure you'll like it. You’ll be a senior, too, won’t you? Then, of course, you’ll want to know something about your new class- mates. They’re a fine group of kids. First I’ll present Rhea Davis. Rhea is presi- dent of the junior class. He works on the stage c rew, but still finds time for fun. Bob Logan is our vice-president. All Bob has to do in a crowd is meow and everyone knows who it is. “Zu” Osmundson, secretary, is always laughing and is a ready friend of everyone. ‘‘Joanie’’ Bowman, treasurer, had a major part in the class play, ““A Murder Has Been Arranged’’, as did Bob. Bob was co-starred with Bill Etherton, our oratorical wizard, in the part of a young journalist, Jimmy North. Bill, however, doesn’t spend all his time on dramatics. He plays on the tennis team and in intramural basketball. Jim Cullen is our tennis varsity squad member. Boy, can he play! Bill ‘‘You can’t win all the time’? Cambron also plays tennis, although he isn’t on the team anymore. Bill is president of the Junior Hi-Y and went with Rhea to the state conference at Kokomo last fall. Many boys are active in Hi-Y, among them Elwood Beehler, ‘‘Red’’ Fry who takes Kay Wilson to all their shindigs, Joe Stuller, Dick Schiffer whose constant companion is Garth Wallace, John Moore, ‘‘Cod’”’ Philotoff, and Bill Poure. I like the girl’s Hi-Y, the Y-Teens, in which I am a member of the dra- matic group. Marilyn Stout, the Junior Inter- Club Council member, was elected president of the Twin City Council and we’re very proud of her. Helen Ganser, the sergeant-at-arms of our organization, is a quiet girl, but at a hard fought basketball game, she can get as excited as the rest of us. And then, Anne, we have several members of the class who are known for some special char- acteristic, for instance Quinto Squadroni with his big blue eyes. Our chemistry friend is Bob Warstler—we expect him to blow up his base- ment laboratory some day. Tom “‘Honey Chile” Moore, our southern Indiana classmate, has a way with the Latin teacher and takes over the class whenever Miss Barracks leaves the room. Every school has its gum chewing crooner; ours is Phyllis Hayden. We even have a little gremlin in the class, a girl by the name of Libby Hennig- hausen. She has a crown of fluffy hair, an im- pish grin, and pint up-pointed glasses which make her look like a pixie. The most beautiful golden red hair belongs to Alberta Schricker who must have a secret way of keeping it lovely. Two apt speech students are Walt Triest and Ethel Draper, both of whom participated in the Ameri- can Legion Oratorical contest which was won by Bill Etherton. Bill also won the county, district, regional, and zone contests, and placed third in the state. Dorothy Hendrickson, a champion bookkeeper, took care of the class money in the magazine subscription drive which Ernie Barron easily won with her ability as a saleswoman. We’re a lively bunch, especially in sports. Of course we all can’t excel in them, but we can give credit to those who do. Our most ardent sportresses are Lois ‘‘Louie’’ Middleton, Pat Callsen, and Betty ‘‘Silly Bill’’ Sill, the president of the G. A. A. These kids, along with several others, including myself, are the proud Thespians of the junior class. The others are Wayne “Lover”? Wilhelm, who has played everything from a Chinese lover to a murdered man; ‘‘Elli’”’ Liff, the murderer, and vivacious Val Kamm, his accomplice. Val won the county Anti-T. B. Speech contest in her sophomore year. Mary Sandvold is another accomplished actress. Bill Etherton and Reva Brown are the junior mem- bers of the debate squad and they do very well at it. Reva is a magician with words. Two of the best workers on the play committees were the quiet Doris Davis, who did the property work, and Jane Charnoski, who sold more tickets than anyone else. Ginny Parrott and Marty Fuller are our fore- most journalists, having been elected to Quill and Scrollin their sophomore year, after work- ing on the Alltold staff. Juniors on this year’s staff are Dolores Gist, Janet Lee Knoblock, editor in chief, Lois Gradeless, Norma Burgeson, and Reva Brown. Lois and Alexia Hall are the class beauties and were elected to the Queen’s court last fall. Something you won’t want to miss when you come to MHS is the vesper service. Lots of juniors had parts, but the outstanding feature of the program was a carol solo by Jim Leonard. Other junior soloists were Phyllis Daugherty and Beulah Fry. The Biology and Chemistry sections of the Science Club have juniors at their heads. The Biology chairman is Jim Miller and Red Hoff- man heads the Chemistry section. “Doc’’ Arata, Bill Hughes, and I comprise the program com- mittee. Ever think of becoming a teacher? If so, I refer you to Ginny Rea, who is president of the Future Teachers and could give you some valuable pointers. Two members of the class are officers in the Commercial club. They are Shirley Orser, secretary, who is a barrel of fun and Mary Amaral, membership chairman, a dark haired lassie with a winning smile. These, Anne, are some of your future class- mates. I’ve told them about you and they are prepared to welcome you in grand style when you arrive next fall. So good-bye until then. BETTY FRITZ JUNIOR OFFICERS: Davis, Osmundson, Bowman, Logan.

The sacred beauty of the Christmas vesper service is a traditional part of the Yuletide cele- bration for many people of the community, and also for its performers, the high school a capella choir. The members of that group will always remember the joyous thrill of proclaiming the Christmas message in song with living pictures as background. Another annual presentation featuring the choir is the Spring Concert. The The Cecelians, a selected group of girls chosen from the choir, is an exceedingly active organi- zation. The girls sang many times for civic groups and for churches of the community. They give a great deal of time to practice and to per- girls especially anticipate the evening for they wear spring formals for the occasion. The music department, under the supervision of Miss Lu- cine Jones, sponsored a novel program this year. Three soloists, alumni of the school, were pre- sented in a concert. This program, as well as the others sponsored by the department, was well-received by music lovers of the community. forming, with very little renumeration. These students are definitely an asset to the commu- nity and a credit to the high school music de- partment. Barkes, Ruddick, Steffens, C.

The Speech Club is an organization of students h aving an interest in dramatics, whether it be plays, pantomimes, or script writing, and who desire to become Thespians. Once a year a grand party takes place and would-be Speech Clubbers try out before the old members, and if their tryouts are successful they become mem- bers. A feature of this year’s Christmas season party was a grab-bag of corsages made of tiny pine cones, and holly leaves. The Speech Club assists the Thespians in presenting the Thespian- Speech Club play and together they give a ban- quet in the spring. Miss Emily Davidson, an energetic, talented dramatic coach is sponsor of the Speech Club. Officers are Nancy Jo Shirk, president; Ray Wardell, vice-president; Sally Chamberlain, secretary-treasurer. “Worthy opponents, and honorable judge,”’ with these familiar words the 1946-47 debate squad settled into action. The reading of nu- merous references, thorough dog-earing of the debate manual, and participating in practice debates climaxed in the first of a series of twelve conference debates. In addition to debating competitively, the students performed several times for civic organizations in the community. The national debate topic for the year was “State Medicine’. The club’s able coach, Mr. Douglas Hall, strives to cultivate in the students who participate suspension of judgment, sports- manship, and the techniques of argumentation. Etherton, Scott, Kamm, R.

In keeping with other changes hereabouts, the C+ Minor Club was organized to fill a need for a music club that many music students and music lovers felt.

Along with many other high schools through- out the land, M. H. S. has its share of returned veterans. Boys who are no longer boys have resumed their seats in the same school and are being instructed by many of the same teachers, but with new faces surrounding them. They have done well in adapting themselves to the change of scenery and have certainly enlivened our halls. Looking down them we see numerous girls escorted by young men with crew cuts, males in khaki pants, blue dungarees, battle jackets, and whole wardrobes of military fatigue suits. We are proud of these boys who have come back to “‘take up the job” again. It wasa large organization, 35 members, and fittingly Mr. Myers is the sponsor.

On March 20-21 the Senior Class presented “The Imaginary Invalid’’, a satire on doctors, by Moliere. It is a rollicking comedy of a man who imagines himself ill and the complications that arise when he tries to marry his spirited daughter, against her will, to a doctor’s stupid son. An outstanding attraction was the elab- orate reproduction of a 17th century French sit- ting room. The stage was authentic and lavish, featuring hanging chandeliers, gold draperies, tapestries, and gilt furniture. Credit goes to Miss Davidson, her cast, committees, and the stage crew. Members of the cast were Bob Futter, Phyllis Albright, Carol Weissert, Merry De Roo, Ronald O’Dell, Alice Baldwin, Margaret Petersen, Pat Berry, Dixie Beck, Phyllis Pease, Arthur Brown, Jesse Karler, Charles Richardson, William Jennings, James Holderman, Charles Barnes. ess a em te ARRESTS Against a background of mystery and murder, an excellent cast presented the Junior Class Play, ‘‘A Murder Has Been Aranged’’. A legend about a theatre in London where a ghost would appear if a dumb woman spoke, the eccentric Sir Charles Jasper, who believed in the supernatural, an in- herited fortune, a dishonest cousin all combine to make a tense, exciting plot. Orchids to Miss Davidson for her wonderful interpretation of the play and to a fine cast for their presentation. A good opportunity for aspiring Thespians was pro- vided when Miss Davidson added to her already busy schedule a dramatics class. M. H. S. is in- deed fortunate to have such a gifted woman as Miss Davidson as its dramatic coach. The fol- lowing students were in the play: Wayne Wilhelm Elliott Liff, Bill Etherton, Bob Logan, Mary Ruth Sandvold, Valerie Kamm, Joan Bowman, Betty Ann Toomey, Tom Moore, Lois Jean Gradeless. This year the Thespians and the Speech Club presented ““The Man Who Came To Dinner’’, a sparkling, witty comedy, that ran successfully on Broadway for several years. The plot centers around Sheridan Whiteside, who, during a stay in the Stanley household, does his best to upset the lives of the members of that family. This play was typical of all MHS plays, in that an excellent group of young thespians portrayed their parts with remarkable skill. Many high school students do have talent, and it is fortu- nate that it can be displayed to such an advan- tage. Cast of characters included Alice Baldwin, Phyllis Pease, Ray Wardell, Carol Weissert, Bill Etherton, Martha Fuller, Betty Sill, Donna Anders, Lester Guin, Margaret Petersen, Wayne Wilhelm, Bob Futter, Mary Ruth Sandvold, James Holderman, Jesse Karler, Clem Leniski, LeRoy Potts, Quinto Squadroni.

The Girl’s Athletic Association, which counts 124 members, is a lively organization enjoying the fun of noon tournaments and after school recreation. Officers this year are Betty Sill, president; Lois Middleton, vice-president; and Billie Hupp, secretary. Their sponsor is Miss Hazel Goodwin, who can keep up with the best of them. The girls pursue such organized sports as speedball, volleyball, basketball, and softball. Hiking, swimming, bowling, skating, are the after school activities. Kicked shins and banged knees are all a part of the game and they like it. 2 scat RTE Arena Along these lines the girls wo rk hard to earn their awards. As a reward for accumulating 150 points in physical exertion, the budding girl athlete is given class numerals. The letter M is awarded for 250 points earned, and the coveted state wall plaque requires a total of 350 points. The basketball tournament and league play were unusually successful this year. Sixty-seven girls enjoyed the fun, but high honors were carried off by the undefeated Cherubs. Members of the Cherubs are Pat Callsen, Lois Coyner, Miss Goodwin, Billie Hupp, Lois Mid- dleton, Betty Sill, and Jeanne Willingham. The Stinkers, Sally Fritz, Doris Miller, Jean Rogge- Se 4, dd, Middleton, Miss Goodwin, Sill Callsen man, Betty Vicsek, Betty Wilson, and June Wil- son, hold second place honors. Two exciting events of the school year are the initiation ordeal in the fall and the honor ban- quet in May. This fall some 30 girls were ex- posed to the initial torture. AG.

Then in the May they don their lady clothes and party manners to receive their awards. At the banquet, also, the officers and sports chairmen for the coming year are installed. i i i cP % ¥ Ps t “ % Coach Arndt and his 1946 football squad may look back over the record books and be proud of themselves even though they lost 7 out of 9 games played. Many were the handicaps that the coach and his boys had to overcome. Only five boys from last year’s varsity squad were on hand this year. The rest were lost through graduation. The squad was the lightest ever fielded by Coach Arndt. These, plus inexper- ience, were largely responsible for the mediocre season; but these factors aside, we can all be proud of this year’s ‘“‘edition”’ of the Mishawaka Cavemen. On September 6, this light and inexperienced team proved capable of handling the task set before them on the gridiron as they overwhelmed a scrappy John Adams eleven on Tupper Field by a shut-out score, 12-0. A special feature was LeRoy Potts’ pass interception and 47 yard run for a touchdown. In the second conference tilt played on the School Field turf, the Riley boys set the Cave- men back to the tune of 18-6. Squadroni scored first on a 51 yard run but Riley crossed our line three times thereafter. Mishawaka had little trouble disposing of the Redskins of Fort Wayne at Tupper Field by a score of 34-7, in another conference game. The Cavemen struck hard and fast with Carl Philo- toff serving as the workhorse. Mishawaka fell by the: way side when they met the powerful Washington Panthers eleven on Tupper Field by a 33-0 score. Their hard running backs ran riot after Glod blocked Leniski’s kick for a T. D. The following week in another conference game, the Elkhart eleven won over the Maroons. Leniski and Potts scored both of our touchdowns on passes from one to the other but a larger Blue Blazer team outscored them by one touchdown. ColumnOne:Philotoff,Potts, Roth, Sipress, Smith.

Varsity players whose pictures appear only with the squad: Bohdan, Luczynski, Luxenburger, Mathias, Michesl, Miller, Ro- binson, Roggeman, Wurster, Zehring. A strong and heavy Libbey, Ohio, team came to Tupper Field and was supposedly a 65 points favorite over Mishawaka. Acting head coach John Sohne’s charges put on one of their best shows and held the Ohioans on even terms for three quarters, but finally lost 32-20. Potts was the Maroon ‘“‘Caveman’’ in this game. The annual Central-Mishawaka game played at Notre Dame Stadium was really a thriller. The Bears started strong and the Maroons finished that way, losing out 34-24. The boys took their annual season trip, this time to Louisville, Kentucky where they met a powerful Male High School. The boys played hard for their last game but lost by a touchdown, 13-19. Mr. Russell Arndt resigned his head coaching job at the end of the 1946 football season after illness had forced him to hand his football duties to an assistant in the middle of the season. Mr. Arndt had been in ill health for the last five years and since the extra responsibility of athletic competition was undoubtedly preventing a cure, it seemed necessary for him to give up football. Mr. Arndt came to M. H. S. as head coach in 1933. For five years prior to his appointment he had donated his services as line coach; and during two of those years Mishawaka Cavemen were undefeated. Since 1933 he is responsible for the only state championship in Mishawaka history. His teams won several conference races besides being several times runners-up in con- ference play. In his 14 years of coaching, Mr. Arndt esti- mates that some 1750 boys have been out practicing football. His teams have played 123 games, of which 80 were victories, 8 were ties, and 35 were defeats. The resulting percentage, 682 has yet to be equalled by another coach of Indiana high school football.

Basketball There was a new coach at the helm of the MHS basketeers in the person of Victor Wukovits who came straight from the Navy. He is the third coach the present varsity team has worked under during the last three years, and he can feel well satisfied that the Cavemen finished up in fourth place in the Conference, with six wins against four defeats for an even 600 average in confer- ence play. The season average was 500, for they won 10 out of their 20 games. The hardwood boys lost their first four games to the John Adams Eagles, Central of South Bend, Lew Wallace of Gary, and Plymouth be- fore they discovered how it ought to be done. Thereafter, in their first five conference games, the Cavemen were undefeated and the black horse of the Conference until they met North Side of Fort Wayne on their opponent’s floor. Those North Siders drubbed the Cavemen by an impressive margin. 1946-47 CAVEMEN BASKETBALL SCHEDULE HOME GAMES Lew Wallace Plymouth Goshen Adams (S. B.)

Central of South Bend handed the Cavemen a defeat, as did LaPorte and Michigan City. But as defeat came, so came victory and when the boys went to Auburn, they won over a stiff quintet and came home to defeat the Washing- ton Panthers in the last conference game of the season. Froebel of Gary turned in one more victory against the Cavemen for the last dis- appointment of the season, for the basketeers of MHS then defeated Culver and Peru on successive weekends. The annual Yuletide Tourney which had been held at John Adams in South Bend for the last few years was called off because it was considered too strenuous for the teams which participated, so the Cavemen accepted an invitation to play in a one day tourney at Huntington, Indiana, and went as far as the finals before losing out. The Team At Tournament Time— Philotoff, Sheets, Freeman, Moore, Nich- ols, Orlosky, Harley, Kizer, Rhoutsong. Vernasco does not appear in the picture. The annual Sectional Tournament at John Adams saw the Maroons bow out in the first game in which they met the Washington Pan- thers by a 43-40 count. The score see-sawed back and forth before the Panthers took the game in hand and settled the matter. There were five seniors on this year’s squad, four of whom had been varsity players the year before. Dick Kizer was the only senior who did not play varsity ball until last season. Don Orlosky has been a dependable player for the last two seasons and George Harley played two } years of varsity ball. Noble Rhoutsong, who gained the conference individual scoring race last season with a total of 144 points, played varsity ball the last three seasons and was a regular the last two. Larry Gates played sec- ond team varsity ball the last two seasons. The four juniors on the squad were John Moore, Lowell Nichols, Joe Sheets, and Joe Vernasco. The only sophomore was Dick Free- man, the biggest boy on the squad. Seniors Don Orlosky and Larry Gates were elected the honorary co-captains .

Coach Ward Baker is their mentor. On the varsity at center were Dominic Portolese and Max McCartney; at forward were Dick Bidlack, Edward Clark, Jerry Manuel, and Chuck Hart- man; guards were Harold Caufman, Milton Ross, Dallas Gear, Don Coleman, and Wally Vernasco. This bunch of boys were certainly impressive this season when they won 13 out of 15 games played, and when they played the second time with their two conquerors, they avenged their only defeats. Thus they have beaten every team that they were pitted against. Further- more, the freshriian reserves made a clean sweep, winning 9 out of 9 games played. FRESHMAN TEAM—Third Row: Coach Baker, B.

Although the 1946 baseball nine didn’t show up as well as expected, Coach Ward Baker is looking forward to a more successful 1947 sea- son when he will field an experienced team. Only three regulars have been lost from last year’s squad; Jimmy Steffof, ‘“‘Boots’’ Oppelt, and Dick Kimmell. The first two boys were fly chasers, the latter a pitcher. The Cavemen started the season off with a bang by winning their first three games from John Adams, Riley, and Central Catholic High Schools, all of South Bend. Central of South Bend tied the Maroons in the fourth contest. Washington of South Bend and Elkhart then dealt the Maroons their first defeats. In conference play, the Mishawaka boys were pushed around to a certain extent, coming in behind in five of the seven games. The Maroons hit their stride only against Michigan City and the second game with Washington. The one thing the boys did that sounded a happy note to “‘Bake’’ was the decisive victory over the previously unbeaten leaders of the conference, Michigan City. This knocked the Red Devils into a tie for the title. In that game Dick Kim- met threw a neat three hitter and the Misha- waka nine finished in seventh place in the league play. When the season ended, the Cavemen had won eight and lost nine games. Two games ended in ties. The prospects for the 1947 season, which is played too late in the year ever to be included in the current yearbook, are immensely brighter with the return of the battery and the complete infield, and one garden chaser.

The 1946 track squad, under the expert super- vision of Coach Walter Thurston, may look back over the record books and pat themselves on the back with a considerable feeling of pride. All but one of the dual meets were won by heavy scores, and the Cavemen also took the Eastern Division meet. Dutch’s thinlies found the sixth spot the high- est they could claim when they competed against the whole Western Division of the Northern Indiana Conference. The squad was plagued by sickness all during the season which had something to do with their having to be con- tent with sixth place. They won eleventh place in the state meet at Indianapolis. All round superior balance was the main advantage of the team. Outstanding seniors were Pete Benjamin, shot put artist; Frank Michels, Dwight Wygant, and Ralph Broman, distance men; Alphonse De- champhelaere, a dash man. Other point makers who will be around next year are Dick Denni- son, Larry Gates, Cloyd Partridge, and Don Orlosky. Mishawaka has a fine squad coming back for the 1947 season which is just getting under way as this book goes to press.

CHAMPIONS — Healey, Harley, Captain Partridge, Coach Thurston, Haughee, Wood, Dennison. Kneel- ing: Manager Warstler. Last fall the Mishawaka Cross Country lads, coached by Walter ‘‘Dutch’’ Thurston, won one of the coveted state championships. The meet at Indianapolis which determined the state championship was held October 26. The num- ber of boys entered from all over the state was so great that two races had to be arranged, and the winner of each became a state co-champion. Anderson High School won one race, and Misha- waka, running in greater competition, won the second. Dutch’s boys won their opening meet with LaPorte on September 20 by a very impressive margin and at the early date already looked like a bunch of veterans. Six days later the Cavemen won their second victory over Goshen by a 39-20-count. John Adams of South Bend was next to fall before the rapid stride of the Maroons on September 29, and took a 39-18 shellacing when the first ten boys to come in were all Cavemen. On October 3 the Maroons went to LaPorte for their second meet with that school. Maroon enthusiasm was high and again — ‘they won, 45-15. The cocky Elkhart Blue Blazers were turned: back 40-18 on October 7. In a triangular meet held in Mishawaka on the afternoon of October 9 with John Adams, Goshen, and Mishawaka as the competing teams, the fleet footed Cavemen snared 15 points while Goshen and Adams were left with 59 and 58 points respectively. On October 10 the Caveman B squad beat the Washington of South Bend A squad easily enough by a 39-20 margin and the regular cross country boys handed Central of South Bend a 44-15 defeat. Later North Side of Fort Wayne gave the regulars a good run, but the balanced power of the local boys proved too much for the North Siders and they lost 34-24. The Washington A squad came to Mishawaka again on October 28 and were humiliated by the B squad Cavemen worse than the Cavemen were when they met the Panthers on the gridiron. The score read: Mishawaka 18, Washington 41. On November 2 at Gary, the Maroons en- tered the conference meet undefeated and were out to keep their record clean. However, the pressure which comes from trying to maintain a winning streak plus a large slice of bad luck kept them from another win when Healey got sick and Dennison fell on the cinders. Even so, the Maroons finished third in the Conference. Third Row: Coach Thurston, Kaiser, Baldwin, Butts, Sherwin, Petersen, Cum- mings, Howell, Dias, Sherry.

Third Row: Monday and Tues- day night league winners: Hixenbaugh, Krueger, Klatt, Heeter, Hocker, Landsberg, Garrard. There were sixteen teams playing in the two senior night leagues under the direction of Mr. Wukovits on Monday night and Mr. Prough on Tuesday night. Mr. Baker had charge of the freshman league at the high school, while Mr. Hill at Battell and Mr. Wight at Main took care of the junior high school teams. At the end of the season each league finished off with a tournament. Medals were presented to the winners, and one boy from each tourna- ment was awarded a best sportsmanship medal. This completes one of the most successful season of intramural basketball ever handled by Mr. Steele. While this is being written, it is planned to have all freshmen and sophomores who took part in the Intramural Basketball League com- pete for free throw medals at noon under the direction of Mr. Prough. Each boy is given 25 free throws, and there will be medals awarded to those boys who place first and second. At the conclusion of this, there is to be boxing each Friday noon in the gym. The weight classifi- cations will be 105, 115, 125, and so on, and no boy may weigh more than four pounds above his weight class. i Mr. George Prough in his first year as golf | Left: to Right: Kaizer, R A | eodeel | Coe ebi hares coach is very proud of the fine work his boys have | Tracy, Nemeth, Williams. done the past season, and he expects them to do even better this spring. Since golf is such a popular adult sport Mr. Prough believes high school boys should learn it and this year’s squad shares his enthusiasm. In the fall season the Maroon golfers ended in second place in Conference competition with a record of four victories and two defeats to their credit. This spring the local golfers will meet all the conference schools, and there will be a state tourney in Indianapolis. High lights of the season were the defeat of Central of South Bend, Dick Kiser’s score of 79 at the LaPorte Invitational and the teams’ sixth place standing in the Invitational. The squad elected Dick Kiser and Mike Ne- meth co-captains for the spring season. These two boys are veteran golfers and the mainstays of the squad. Back: Wallace, Weaver, Krueger, B. Clark, E.

None of the six boys who came out for tennis last fall when Coach Hazell Goodwin issued the call had ever played tennis before, but they were able by hard work to rate fifth place in Confer- ence standing at the end of the season. Lack of experience was the main factor in the squad’s mediocre showing. They lost to Michi- gan City and LaPorte before defeating Goshen 5-0. Then John Adams and Riley of South Bend trounced them before they got back on the win- ning side against, North Side of Fort Wayne. The final meet went to Central of South Bend. Standbys on the squad were Larry Phenegar, Allan De Poy, Jim Cullen, Herbert Dixon, Arthur Greenfield, and Seymour Rosenwasser. De Poy, Cullen, Dixon, and Greenfield will be back next fall with the much needed experience. Phenegar, DePoy, and Cullen received letters because they won over half of their matches. Dixon won a monogram and Greenfield and Rosenwasser won numerals. Phenegar and Rosenwasser were seniors and will not be back in the fall.
