Betty Keitel The Forty-Second Edition Presenting, in this 42nd edi- tion of The Hoop-Pole, a brief look backward—bygone days; a longer look at the present—our days; and a glimpse of the blue- prints for the future —their days. The Spirit of MVHS is an intan- gible something which we recognize as an inheritance from all of the schools that have proudly borne the name of Mt. Vernon High School. May the students of each generation cherish and enrich it. To the Spirit of MVHS—past, present, and future—we dedicate this Hoop-Pole.

This rough, wooden hoop is a tradition in our school as well as a symbol of the past. The hoop-pole was original ly used to hold barrels together. The cooperage industry was an important one in early Mt. Vernon. From the stories and legends associated with the hoop-pole fights between migrant river men and local settlers comes this tradi- tional symbol of our school, and the name of our yearbook. . . . THE HOOP-POLE! MVHS began in Old Central 1870-1887 —Moved to Main Street 1887-1896 —Then to The Old Castle 1896-1929 1929 MVHS 1960 The high school building in which we have attended school for the past four years was completed in 1929 at a cost of $200,000. The building is located on a site purchased in 1920. The dedication of this Tudor-gothic style building was held on Feb. 22, 1929, although classes had been held in it since the beginning of the second semester. The speaker for the occasion was Dr. H. Noble Sherwood, former State Superintendent of Public Instruction, who was introduced by Supt. M. N. O'Bannon. The high school principal was Earl Nash and the school board was composed of Alfred Gronemier, Ambrose Harbert and Wm. Espenchied, Sr. The move into this building brought about many changes. The plan of organization placed the seventh and eighth grade, along with the four high school classes, in the same building. The home room system was inaugurated and for the first time the high school had its own auditorium and gymnasium. The Footlight Performers, under the direction of Miss Howard, dedicated the new auditorium by presenting three one-act plays. This organization financed the purchase of the curtains for the stage and drapes for the windows. The eighth annual Posey county basketball tournament was the first major event to be staged in the new gymnasium; Poseyville eliminated Mt. Vernon, coached by Mr. Pence, and was in turn defeated in the finals by Griffin 24-22.

Mary Beth Lutterman's prize winning sales amounted to $78, closely followed by Barbara Vance with $65. Junior magazine drive leaders, Donna Mounts and Joe Althoff point to a record sales total of $3,300 which went over the top of the thermometer.

The same evening he established a school and sectional record of 22-2 3 4 in the broad jump. The 880 relay team broke the school record by copping the sectional race in 1:33.7. Members were G.

Playing their first year in the SIAC (B division) they won two and lost one. With the resignation of Mr. Byrd the task of fashioning a team became the responsibility of Coach David, who had handled the Freshmen in 1958. Asst. Coach Weinzapfel tutored the linemen and the Freshmen were directed by Asst. Coach Scates. Steady improvement in fundamental football and team play were notice- able throughout the season. The '59 squad demonstrated a strong team spirit as they battled their way through a schedule that included some of the better teams in the area. Seven seniors, including F. Adams, J. Andersen, F. Haas, S. Joyner, J. Kirkpatrick, C. Naab and J. Robb, will be lost by graduation, but a total of 14 freshmen were squad members at the end of the season. 71 Manager S. Vogel, Coach Solomon.

The high point and major upset engineered by the Cats was their victory over the favored Ft. Branch Twigs in the Holiday Tournament. Only four home games were played this year, the last for the present gym, as construction moved forward on the MVHS. Graduating seniors include Naab, Keitel, Schroeder, Juncker and Simpson.
