ND THUS IS FINISHED ANOTHER CHAP- TER IN THE RECORD OF THE NAP- PANEE SCHOOLS — A RECORD OF WHICH THE CITY SHOULD WELL BE PROUD. THIRTY-THREE CLASSES HAVE GRADUATED FROM NAPPANEE HIGH SCHOOL; EACH OF THESE CLASSES HAS AIDED GREATLY IN MAKING OUR SCHOOL RANK WITH THE LARGER SCHOOLS IN THIS PART OF THE STATE. ft i p o o « o o H Principal ' s Office Manual Training Shop (10) Assembly Room and Library Chemistry Laboratory (11) Senior English Class Physics Laboratory (12) Algebra Class Basket-Ball Practice (13) HE STUDENTS OF NAPPANEE HIGH SCHOOL HAVE ALWAYS FOUND THE INTIMATE ASSOCIATION WITH THEIR INSTRUCTORS WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE IN LARGER SCHOOLS. THE INSTRUCTORS HAVE ALWAYS GIVEN THEIR BEST IN ORDER THAT THEY MIGHT ENRICH THE FUTURE LIVES OF THE STUDENTS. THEY HAVE GIVEN THE VERY BEST OF ADVICE AND IN MANY WAYS OUTSIDE OF THE CLASS ROOM HAVE HELPED THE STU- DENTS PREPARE FOR THEIR LIFE WORK. THE MEMBERS OF OUR FACULTY HAVE LEFT THE STAMP OF THEIR PERSONAL- ITIES, HAVE GIVEN OF THEIR GENEROUS NATURES, AND HAVE ENRICHED THE ATMOSPHERE ABOUT THEM. MEN AND WOMEN WHO ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO DO SUCH TASKS ARE AS LIKELY TO BE FOUND IN THE MODEST AS IN THE MORE IMPRESSIVE ENVIRONMENT. NAPPANEE HIGH SCHOOL HAS ALWAYS BEEN PROUD OF ITS TEACHERS AND TO THE PRESENT MEMBERS OF THE FACULTY THE CLASS OF 1930 PAYS TRIBUTE.

CLASSES ARE MORE INTRICATE AND MORE DI- RECTLY RESPONSIBLE TO THE INDIVID- UAL STUDENT. WE TALK OF SCHOOL SPIRIT AND LOYALTY, BUT IT IS SOME- TIMES INTANGIBLE AND ABSTRACT. THE SUBJECT OF DUTY TO OUR CLASSMATES AND TO OUR CLASS IS, HOWEVER, OF GREAT IMPORTANCE TO US AS WE DE- TERMINE WHAT OUR CLASS SHALL BE. WHEN A STUDENT DOES NOT WORK FOR THE BEST INTERESTS OF HIS CLASS IT MAY BE READILY SURMISED THAT HE IS OF NO CREDIBLE VALUE TO THE SCHOOL OR TO HIS COMMUNITY. WHEN WE FOLLOW THE IDEAL TO MAKE OUR CLASSES IRREPROACHABLE EX- AMPLES OF SCHOOL SPIRIT, CLASS LOY- ALTY AND COMRADESHIP, WE SHALL FOSTER A HIGH STANDARD OF PERFECT ACCORD BETWEEN THE SCHOOL AND THE CLASSES.

Nappanee High School. We are here! yelled the ninety- eight greeny freshmen that enterd in 1926. We elected Ivan Yoder as president, Newell Troup as vice president, and Dillard Lehman as secretary-treasurer, choosing green and white as our colors, the white rose as our flower, and the famous motto, We can because we think we can. We were under the direction of Mr. Roose and Mrs. Neff. Oh, My! The poor people! How we made them suffer! Our greatest event was our big party at the west side park. Then we moved a step and became the soft heads of the school. This year we elected our famous red headed Pete Moore as our president, Ike Phillips as our vice president, Joe Richmond as secretary-treasurer, and we chose Miss Lantz and Mr. Martin to guide us. What a great event it was to visit the much heard about Blosser ' s park! Ah! Now look at us! What a great big step we took. We are now Juniors of Nappanee High School! Mr. Newey Troup lead us through this year success- fully with the aid of Mitch as vice president and Max Clouse as secretary-treasurer. Miss Iffert and Mr. Schuler were our big bosses. Our class play, The Whole Town ' s Talking, went over with a great big bang ! We made the folks sit up and take notice of the Juniors. Of course our Junior-Senior Reception was the best of all and such fun we had at Early ' s eating watermelon. And now, sad but true, we are the much dignified Seniors of Nappanee High School, graduating in the year of 1930. Ivan Yoder, with the help of Miss Rosen- berry, Mr. Goodrich, Ralph Mitchell, Joe Richmond and Alfred Stump, hurried the fifty-seven of us through our last year most successfully. Our class play, Smilin ' Through, was fine, our commencement enjoyed by everyone, and oh! we must not forget the grand and glorious Junior-Senior Reception. We graduated with a boom, bing, bang. We are sure the class of 1930 will not be forgotten too soon. — H. L. O.

GOODRICH Advisor KATHYRN ROSENBERRY Advisor J. A. ABELL Advisor (35) CLASS PROPHECY Hello, everybody! This is station N-H-S. The news flashes will now be brought to you by the Class of 1930 who graduated from this school five years ago. Well, look at this! John Early, Lloyd Stahly and Howard Clouse, wealthy manufacturers of umbrellas, arrested for their shady dea lings. They plead guilty. What ' s this? Ivan Yoder, owner of Nappanee bus line, gassed. It seems that he was trying to learn more about the gas business. He was taken to the hospital of Junior Brown. Wilma Snider, the head nurse, says he will recover. Here ' s some good news. Jean Miller, renowned singer, has returned from her trip abroad. By the way, she will broadcast from this station to-night. She will sing Dicky, the song that has made her so famous. Here ' s something of great importance to science. Dale Lehman, noted chemist, discovers a new clement. He will be at this station to-morrow and tell you all about his discovery. Dillard Lehman has just completed an invention that will be an aid to many. He has invented a stop light to put on davenports. This light flashes when anyone is approaching. While we are talking of inventions, here ' s an interesting one. Max Mishler in- vented non-skid banana peels. He accomplished this by grafting rubber in the banana trees. If you like to read books, here ' s something that will interest you. Helen Louise Ogden has just completed her book, Clothes Make the Man. She received pointers for this book from a well known clothing store in Nappanee. Did you know that Maxwell Clouse has captured another bank robber? He explained that he owes his success to his ability to determine the color of a man ' s hair from the size of his footprint. Now, we will turn to the sport page. Coach Phillips leads Nappanee Bulldogs to success in state tournament. Say, did you know that he and Mildred Tobias, the great artist, were married last week? No wonder he won the tournament! And now, I have a surprise for you. There will be a triple wedding broadcasted from this station this evening. Wilma Stose who has just returned from her work in China will tie Newell Troup, the famous musician, to her apron strings. Gwen- dolyn Richmond and Enid Walters will also be married but they refuse to tell who the lucky ones are; but we saw Gwendolyn with a tall, handsome blond and Enid has been getting letters from Chicago, so you can use your imagination. That ' s all of the news but here are several important announcements. The Nu-Style Hat Shoppe has all their new spring hats in. This store is managed by Marie Mullett and Marjorie Hollar. Buy your hats now. Nothing over $1.98. (36) Ernest Hunsberger ' s Hotsy Totsy Follies are at the Huffman Theater this week. Members of the Follies are: Bernice Berger, Lillie Culp, Mary Holaway, Ruth Chamberlin, and Elizabeth Klotz. David and Danson Shaum, famous acrobats, will be there. Another attraction is Marvin Mishler the mysterious magician who will show you a couple of tricks. Also showing Charles Jones in Ladies Love Love. And now, I ' ll tell you about the programs for to-day. At ten o ' clock, Joe Richmond, United States Senator from Indiana, will give a talk on There Should be a Tariff on Hairpins. At eleven o ' clock, Maxine Miller and Laura Stump will debate on the question: It is better to make your husband do the dusting before he washes) the breakfast dishes.

At two-fifteen, Wiley McDowell and Orville Haney will give their daily lesson on How to act at a marriage ceremony. Addie Hill will be here at two-thirty to tell housewives how to be good cooks. At three o ' clock you will hear Margaret Heckaman playing her violin, ac- companied by Dorothy Bowman at the piano. Devon Hossler, manufacturer of anti-back-lash chewing gum will give a snappy talk at four o ' clock. Five o ' clock brings Russel Snider and his wife, formerly Wilma Kline, who con- duct the children ' s hour. At six o ' clock Ruth Gingerich, owner of Hotel Specialty Da Hash, will give a talk about Detroit. Ralph Moore and his wife, formerly Opal Wisler, will be with, us at seven o ' clock. They will tell us about The Fun of Planning a Home. At ten-thirty the Discord Boys, Eldon Miller, Ralph Mitchell, and Glen Bleile will entertain you with some new song hits. Alfred Stump and Bob McAndrew, the Blackbirds, will cheer you up at eleven o ' clock. Jacob Walters and Harold Umbaugh will broadcast a detective story at eleven- thirty. Be sure to tune in on these programs. We are now signing off. Please stand by for the Class of 1931. (37) DIPLOMA HOUR The graduating Class of 1930 numbers fifty-seven students. There are thirty- one boys and twenty-six girls. Only one former class was as large as this — the Class of 1927. The Class of 1930 has the largest number of boys ever graduated in one class. Eight members of this class celebrates birthdays in May. In fact two are celebrat- ing to-day, May 23rd. Summer birthdays are more numerous than winter. Twenly celebrate during May, June and July. But every month claims at least four birth- days, except November, which has but two. The only important holiday celebrated is the 4th of July. One pupil celebrates December 26th, so likely receives few birth- day presents. The class is blessed with twins (not real). One pair celebrates March 25th; another May 23rd; a third pair June 2nd; a fourth, July 19th; a fifth, August 31st; and a sixth, October 8th. Four of these pairs are the same age. The average age of the girls is 17 years, 10 months, 23 days. The average age of the boys is 18 years, 1 month, 27 days. The girls graduate 1 month and 12 days older than the girls of 1929, and 3 months and 22 days younger than the girls of 1928. The boys graduate 28 days older than the boys of 1929 and 16 days younger thun the boys of 1928. The oldest graduate is a boy; the youngest a girl. She is Vera Clouse, age 16 years, 7 months and 24 days. Thirty-three of this class ' were born in 1912; ten were born in 1913, and so are one year ahead of schedule. The class play was entitled Smilin ' Through. The approximate cost of the Napanet was $1,100. The Editor-in-Chief was Maxwell Clouse. The Business Managers were Ira Phillips and Robert McAndrew. The Junior-Senior Reception was at the M. E. Church, May 16. The Class of 1929 put on their own commencement. The Salutatory was given by Vera Clouse. The Valedictory was given by Maxwell Clouse.

(40) JUNIORS Class History And it came to pass on the seventh day of September, 1327, we entered Nap- panee High School as Freshmen. The upper classmen spake unto us, You are Freshies and very green. Beware! But we answered, Pray for us, for we hope we have a good Conscience. They answered, Make yourselves perfect in every work to do our will, and we will take the stony heart out of our bodies and replace it with a heart of love. In this year we chose the following leaders to guide us around the many pitfalls. Stahly Weldy, president; Alberta Weygand, vice president; Erdean Stahly, secretary- treasurer. We had a feast in the gym, and we did all eat, and were filled. So ended the first year in the wilderness. When we were Sophomores and were drawing nigh to the old High School, the Juniors and Seniors did send forth two disciples to welcome us back again. In the second year of our great work we chose, James Eaton, president; Donald Price, vice president; Alberta Weygand, secretary-treasurer. We had two feasts, one on the twenty-ninth day of October, with all the dis- ciples of our school. The other at Dean and Don Price ' s haven of rest in which we dressed ourselves in sackcloth. Now when we had ended our second year of schooling, we departed for a three months sojourn. This year (1929) on the fourth day of September, we approached N. H. S. as Juniors and when we entered the building so dear to our hearts, we were besought instantly by all the other classes who spake as follows, Call to remembrance the former days, in which we treated you rather badly, yet ye endured all your afflictions with great patience. Now we love you and have built in our hearts a synagogue for you. And it came to pass that on the twelfth day of February the Juniors gave a play entitled, The Patsy . And many people came to see this miracle and the} cried, We will praise thee, for the play is fearfully and wonderfully made. Mar- velous are thy works. We shall speak of the glory of the play and talk of thy power. And as it had bee n prophesied earlier in the year, the Juniors gave the Seniors a great feast. We waited in deep regret until the Seniors had gone to a new resting place and we (the Juniors) could occupy their much worn seats. So endeth the third year in the vast hall of learning. — E. R.

We elected Lowell Mullett, president; Robert Miller, vice presiden t; Glen Fields, secretary-treasurer. We chose a red rose for our class flower, and crimson and white for our colors. Miss Smith and Mr. Roose were our advisors. During the year we had a party at Blosser ' s park. After we skated, we roasted weiners. We all went home full of contentment. When we entered school this year as Sophomores, many went early intending to get a front seat, but most of them were not early enough. Most of the students resolved to study hard and set an example for the new Freshmen, but before long it was noticed that some of the Sophomores had not for- gotten their Freshmen ways. Shortly after school began, we met to elect officers and advisors. Charles Leh- man was elected president and Wava Miner, vice president; Robert Miller became our secretary-treasurer. We elected Miss Shively and Mr. Byers for our advisors. We had a skating party at Blosser ' s park during the first semester and although we attended a lecture before going, we enjoyed a falling good-time. Three of our class members are in the Student Council. They are Vivian Ep- pley, Harold Llmbaugh, and Charles Lehman. We have several good basket-ball players in our class. Two of the best are Charles Lehman and Lowell Mullett, who play on the first team. We are glad to say they have two more years in which to make our class and our school still more proud of them. Although there are some who talk without raising their hand, some who get to class late, some who stay at home because they are sleepy, gum-chewers, sleepers, and victims of spring fever in early spring, we are all proud to be Sophomores and we intend to publish an annual without an equal when we become wise, dignified Seniors. —M.

We were quite confused and bewildered and I remember distinctly how a group of girls went up to the assembly when the dismissal bell rang instead of going home. They were probably informed by some upper classman that they were supposed to go to the assembly. Now in the eighth grade we felt quite superior to the seventh grade pupils and were very good at making them behave well for we were very good. We invited them to have their Hallowe ' en party with us and, feeling very much honored, they came. Then the new school year opened, and we entered senior high school. We or- ganized our class as soon as possible and elected Marjorie Anglemeyer as the stu- dent council member. Purple and gold were chosen as our class colors and the yellow rose as our flower. A skating party was enjoyed by our class at the Stuckman Hall skating rink. Although many of us had our ups and downs we enjoyed the party immensely. The Freshman class has several boys on the basket-ball team of whom the class is indeed proud. We have had good times this year and enjoyed our school work very much. We have made many friends among the pupils who came to Nappanee High School this year and so with sports, parties, work, and play altogether we feel that our time spent here has been worth while. — G.

During that year we had two parties: one a weiner roast held at Inez Early ' s home, the other a Hallowe ' en party to which the generous eighth graders invited us. Now We are the eighth graders with C. J. Holaway and Mabel Heckaman, advisors. We had a skating party at Stuckman ' s Hall at which we enjoyed our evening immensely. The eighth grade has several boys in the band of whom we are very proud. We are finishing our career in Nappanee Junior High School and hope when school starts next year that all will begin on our adventure in Nappanee High School. — M.

The class boasted the distinction of coming without leaving any of its members behind in the sixth grade. Perhaps that fact helped to make the size the goodly number of fifty-six boys and girls. In selecting officers the class seemed to favor girls. Fern Geyer was chosen president and Evelyn Mullett secretary-treasurer. These two have faithfully done their duty; the treasury was not only promptly ready to make its contribution for representing the class in this book, but also was able to furnish the class with a Hal- lowe ' en party. There have been many new things to learn, and of course many things are still unlearned, but we feel that the seventh graders have made a good beginning toward making their class a credit to the school. — R.

The regular initiation was given in the Presbyterian Church Basement. The second initiation was started at the high school building and the candidates were then blindfolded and taken for a ride to a graveyard about three miles west of town. After some trouble the boys finally found the tombstones assigned to them. OLDER BOYS ' CONFERENCE Six club members and Mr. Abell attended the Ninth Indiana Y. M. C. A. Older Boys ' Conference held at Elkhart, November 30, December 1 and 2. Each member who attended the conference received a great benefit from it. Next year ' s conference is to be held at Kokomo. G. R.-HI-Y PARTIES In the first semester of the year the Girl Reserve ' s gave the Hi-Y a party in the gymnasium and in observance to the Golden Rule, the Hi-Y gave the Girl Reserves a party the Second Semester. PRESIDENTS ' CONFERENCE Mr. White and three of next year ' s officers, Charles Lehman, Donald Price and Stahly Weldy, attended the Presidents ' Conference at Indianapolis, April 1 1 and 12. They started Friday afternoon and returned Saturday night. Many Hi-Y problems were discussed and so give the new officers a good start. COUNTY RALLY The greatest event of the year was a County Hi-Y Convention held the first of November at the Methodist Church. Delegations from the various Hi-Y ' s of the county as well as the Bremen club were present. HI-Y AWARDS Last spring the club awarded a basket-ball trophy to the boy on the first team, who showed the best sportsmanship throughout the year. The club also awarded a jeweled Hi-Y pin to the member in the club who had the highest scholastic standing. The trophy was awarded, last year, to Gerald Stahly and the pin to Maxwell Clouse. This has been done for the last several years and the club plans to give these awards every spring from year to year. The work of the club this year has been commendable, but there is always room for improvement and we are hoping this will be shown next year. This year the club gave fifteen dollars for the teaching of religious education in the public schools.

The Girl Reserves of the Nappanee High School organized in 1925, with an en- rollment of twenty-nine members. The enrollment has increased to the number of fifty-one for the years 1929 and 1930. The theme for this year was It Pays to Advertise. The Girl Reserves are working forward to making the organization a better society every year. The first accomplishments of the Girl Reserves were meagre, but gradually as the girls gained confidence in the organization, its power increased and results have been very satis- factory. Two initiation services were held this year, in which twenty-six girls were initiated into the club. A few of the social gatherings which were held were a Mother ' s and Daughter s Banquet, a supper for Mother and Dad, and a party for the Hi-Y boys. At the installation ceremony held in April, a group of capable and dependable officers were installed as the cabinet for next year ' s club. The officers for next year are as follows: Pres., Wanda Minard; Vice Pres., Alberta Weygand; Secy, Miriam Miller; Treas., Fay Danner; Service Chairman, Kathryn Metzler; Social Chairman, Dorothy Coppes. The Girl Reserve Code is: Gracious in manner Impartial in judgment Ready for service Loyal to friends.

This was possible because a vocational agricultural de- partment was established. The Future Farmers of America is an organization of students in vocational agricultural departments of high schools throughout the United States. The organiza- tion is governed by student officers who are advised by instructors in agriculture depart- ments. The aim of the organization is to train boys through agricultural pursuits as leaders in community, state, and national affairs. The following officers were elected for the local chapter: Marvin Mishler, presi- dent; Harold Pippenger, vice president; Henry Baumgartner, secretary; Dean Price, treasurer. The members sincerely wish the continuance of the work started this year in the year to come. — H. L. P. (66) LATIN CLUB first Kow — Mis s Newby — Advisor, Carolyn Arch, Julia Blosser, J.

In 1928, Latin students organized a club for the purpose of promoting fuller ap- preciation of classical culture. Eligibility for membership was restricted to those who continued the study of Latin after completing one year. Societas Classica was chosen as the club name and Roman fashion was followed in forming offices, which are occupied by different students each semester. Officers consist of two consuls, two praetors, two quaestors, four aediles, two vigiles, and two tribunes. Consulship has been held by Virginia Coppes, Maxwell Clouse, Wilma Stose, Carlin Felter, Jean Miller, Vera Clouse, and Wayne Fletcher. At the meetings held monthly, programs consist of Latin songs and playlets, mythology, and Latin games. Perhaps the greatest events of the two years were the Roman banquet and the open meetings to which neighboring schools were invited. The club wishes to extend its sincere appreciation to Miss Newby, the advisor, be- cause of the active interest she has shown. —V. C. (67) EDISONIAN SCIENCE CLUB First Rotv — R. V.

Goodrich, instructor of Chemistry and Physics. The purpose of the club is to increase the knowledge of the common science about us; to become more familiar with the everyday practical phases of science and to supply an abundance of information that will be of assistance in developing our intellectual background. Scientific programs were rendered at each meeting of the club and these programs have been very helpful to us. During the year the club has sponsored a science pro- gram in the assembly. Nearly all of the club members have made the trip to Detroit and toured Ford ' s plant. We are well pleased with the results from the programs rendered. Discounting the fact that this is the first year for an organization of this kind we conclude that the club has been highly successful in its endeavor and purpose.

It teaches the girl to love nature and beauty and to look for it in things that other people would not call beautiful. Girls, after being in Girl Reserves, learn to do useful things for other people and to read and appreciate useful books. Junior Girl Reserves prepares the girl for membership in the Y. W. C.

The work pro- gressed very well until the director was called to teach in Indianapolis. The work was dropped for a short time; but later the boys returned to work, and many hours of practice were put in. They were somewhat handicapped without a super- visor but enjoyed the work to the utmost. Selections were given at: the high school, the Auditorium, numerous Churches, Ki- wanis Club, Business Women ' s Profession- al Club, Class Plays, and also at other nearby towns such as Elkhart and Goshen. As this is the first time that a High School Quartette was attempted in our local high school it is thought considerable success was attained in their efforts. The quartette consists of: Glen Bleile, First Tenor; Ralph Mitchell, Second Tenor; Eldon Miller, Baritone; Volney Miller, Bass. — E. M. SCIENCE LABORATORY ASSISTANTS The state department of education now authorizes allowance of one credit to a pupil who acts as a laboratory assistant in Chem- istry or physics. The assistant spends one period each day in the laboratory, keeping apparatus cleaned up, orderly arranged, setting up experiments, making of solutions and many other things to be done about a laboratory to keep it to its highest state of efficiency. Dale Lehman was appointed Physics as- sistant and Alfred Stump, Chemistry as- sistant. Their work has been a big help to the instructor, and it is believed that much useful knowledge has been gained by the assistants. Dale Lehman SCHOLASTIC CLUB Alfred Stump The Scholastic Club was an informal club, organized by the members of the Senior English Class, for the purpose of promoting a better understanding of current literature and the lines of living writers; to instill in our minds a greater love for scholasticism ; and to help us in our study of English 12. The meetings were held each Friday at the regular class period. The meetings alternating, first a program from the Scholastic magazine then a program of general discussion.

THE INCIDENTS, ON THE FOLLOWING PAGES, SHALL, IN YEARS TO COME, SERVE TO CALL TO MIND MANY EVENTS WHICH WOULD OTHERWISE BE FOR- GOTTEN—ESPECIALLY THOSE OF A SO- CIAL NATURE. LIKE EVERY OTHER PART OF SCHOOL LIFE, ACTIVITIES HAVE HAD THEIR PART TO PLAY. SOCIAL AND ATHLETIC EVENTS HAVE BEEN ANTICI- PATED WITH EQUAL JOY. WHEN, IN FUTURE YEARS, YOU TURN THESE PAGES, MAY THE JOY OF REMINISCENCE BE AS GREAT AS THAT OF YOUR FORMER ANTICIPATION. MAY EACH EVENT LIVE AGAIN IN YOUR MEMORY AND RECALL TO MIND THOSE HAPPENINGS WHICH SO BRIGHTENED EACH HIGH SCHOOL CAREER. THOUGH IN THE FUTURE, OUR PATHS MAY BE FAR SEPARATED, MAY THIS SECTION HELP TO KEEP THE FRIENDSHIPS, FORMED IN SCHOOL, FRESH IN OUR MINDS. 1929 SEPTEMBER 1929 MONDAY TUESDAY WEDNESDAY THURSDAY FRIDAY 3 Back to school again.

With the romantic element introduced in the picturesque second act, which is a flash-back to the youth of John Carteret and his tragic love affair, and the! splendid characterizations of the first and third acts, the play was indeed charming.

The story concerns Patricia Harrington, a girl who runs second to her older sister. Her father, a traveling- man, is on her side, and finally declares his independ- ence by putting Ma in her proper place. This brings about Patsy ' s ultimate triumph, and, needless to say, affords her happiness as the bride of the man she loves.

A three-course dinner was served on tables decorated with resemblances of the first Christmas. A varied entertainment followed. Two plays were given by the teachers. In one of them the part of an overgrown boy leaving his mother for the first time to take upon himself the wisdom of the schools was very aptly played by Mr. Byers. Then came good old Saint Nick with his toys for all good little children. He had a gift for each, but more than that he kindly gave a second gift to some. To Miss Allman he gave a plant over whose disappearance she was very much upset a few days before. To Mr. Abell was given a letter opener after he had said nothing was missing from his office. But best of all was the expression on Mr. Schuler ' s face when Santa handed him his grade book. Christmas carols were sung to conclude a happy evening. FALL OF THE FRESHIES Stuckman ' s Hall was chosen as the ideal spot for the Freshman party. Only thirty-five members of the class were present at this first high school party, how- ever, perhaps because it was the first. Three teachers chaperoned the group, Miss Heestand, who proved to be quite clever on skates, and Mr. White, who preferred not to put his faith on them, and Miss Plasterer. Refreshments were served and thirty-five Freshmen went home to suffer from stiff limbs. THE SOPHS STEP OUT After a conduct speech by Professor Abell, the Sophomores set out for a skat- ing party at Blossers park, one Friday evening in October. The speech didn ' t dampen the spirit of this jovial group, but, sad to say, some arrived in Elkhart instead of Goshen. Miss Shively and Mr. Byers proved to be very understanding chaperons (at least they understood why the Sophs walked instead of running up and down stairs). Perhaps because everyone was running short of nickels and dimes for the music box or pop, no serious objection was offered when the Sponsors said, Time to go home. (90 ) ATHLETIC MEET On the evening of October third, the Girl Reserves and Hi-Y organizations met in the Gymnasium for a Sport Party. They came eigthy-six strong and in their best humor. The group was divided and half of it sent, under flying colors of Yale Penant with Devon Hossler as yell leader, to one end of the gym. The other group as Har- vard, with Ernest Hunsberger as Chief Yeller, made themselves as comfortable as possible opposite Yale. By means of baloons as lung testers and blind-folded corn flake eaters, several persons qualified for the sport events and were sent (baggage and all?) to the finals. The events taking place won the relay race, standing broad grin, fifty yard dash, foot- ball game and boxing match. The points were averaged and it was found that Yale had won by one and one-half points which made them the honorable winners of a handsomely engraved, s hining silver TIN cup. A two course luncheon was served (two helpings of the same thing) and the rooters and contestants withdrew to their respective dwellings. HI-Y LUNCHEON At noon, Thursday, January 12, the Hi-Y, with Supt. Abell, Rev. Studebaker and the Advisory Board as guests, enjoyed a two-course luncheon in the gymnasium. The luncheon was served by the cooking class under the direction of Miss Heestand. A very interesting address which followed the luncheon was delivered by Rev. Stude- baker. FAREWELL FETE It is a long anticipated fete, that which occurs on the Friday preceding com- mencement. This year the particular Friday is the 16th of May. The Juniors have kindly consented to give us the program but very emphatically refused to submit the menu. (We are sure it isn ' t because they are ashamed of it.) By the looks of this program, we are contemplating one of the best Receptions which Nappanee High has known. Following is the program: Welcome — Wayne Dunham, Senior Response — Ivan Yoder, Song — Quartette, Reading — Margaret McFall, We Can Because We Think We Can — Jean Miller, Stunt — ?, Reading — DeVon Hossler, Song — Quartette, Toil Conquers All Things — Alberta Weygand, School Song — Everyone. Toastmaster — Mr. Abell. (91) HOBO PARTY Early in October the dignified seniors, clad in hobo garb, transported on a hay wagon, landed at Bessie ' s for a jovial good time. A committee afforded entertaining action games until everyone had worked up an appetite sufficient to devour his share of the weiners and buns. After eating, each person told his hard luck story as the gang grouped about the camp fire in true hobo fashion. This first party of our Senior year seemed to set the graduating class off for a year of happy comradeship together. NEW TEACHERS WELCOMED On Tuesday evening, September 11, the new teachers of the Nappanee schools were entertained in the basment of the high school building by those older in point of service. After a game of introduction in which all became at least casually acquainted, a pot-luck supper was heartily enjoyed. After some active games played in the gymnasium under the supervision of Mr. Schuler, the group settled about a blazing imitation camp fire in one corner of the room. Following the welcome speech by Mr. Holoway and the response by Mr. Goodrich, songs were sung and yarns told in true camp fire fashion. As camp fires are usually conducive to the formation of friendships, so this one started all on a year of loyal and friendly cooperation. ASK THE MAN WHO OWNS ONE The Girl Reserve Club entertained their Mothers and Fathers at a pot-luck supper at the First Brethren church on March 13, 1930. The theme was automobiles as the motto Ask the Man Who Owns One is an automobile motto. The tables were decorated with roads, on which were automobiles driving past houses, churches and schoolhouses which were at the side of the road. During the supper Girl Reserve songs were sung. A welcome was given by Wilma Stose, our president, and responses were given by Mr. Rickert, representing our mothers, and Mr. Richmond, representing our fathers. An automobile stunt and a pantomime of Bluebeard were given by the girls. All participated in an automobile contest for which a prize was awarded. This was the first party that was ever given to which our fathers were invited and we think we enjoyed their company equally as much as they enjoyed our ' s. (92) SCHOLASTIC LUNCHEON Early in January the Scholastic Club, which is composed of the Senior English Class of nineteen hundred and thirty, held a luncheon in the basement of the high school building. Previous to the luncheon Gwendolyn Richmond provided a very interesting pro- gram made up of contributions from the members. The three course luncheon was served by the Domestic Science Class. To each member a program and favor were given to place Among his Souvenirs and to each an increased fellowship with members and our advisor, Miss Smith, was instilled. OPEN MEETING OF COMMERCIAL CLUB The Commercial Club of Nappanee High School held an open meeting in the assembly room of the high school building on Monday night, April 14, 1930. Milford and Goshen were represented by some twenty Commercial students of their respective schools. The meeting was very nicely conducted by our president Mildred Tobias. Sing- ing club songs got everybody in the spirit of an instructive program as well as an entertaining one. The remainder of the program consisted of a reading by Wilma Stose and a playlet presented by members of our local club. Following is the cast of characters in the play called A Saturday Morning In An Office : Bob) — Bessie Pippenger, Mr. Smith — Don Price, Miss Harris — Enid Walters, Dorothy — Frances Gall, Mr. Crapman — Marie Mullett, Mr. Grouch — Jacob Walters, Mr. Colby — How- ard Clouse, Miss Vivian Jameson — Alberta Weygand, Miss Brown — Margaret Hecka- man, Mr. Floorwalker — Orville Haney. Miss Plasterer — director. LATIN CLUB OPEN MEETING The Latin Club has shared in the social activities of Nappanee High School by holding an open meeing ' in the high school assembly. Latin students from neighboring towns, Bremen, Milford, Goshen, and Madison, were invited. The program consisted of a Welcome Address — Maxwell Clouse, Tales of a Wayside Inn — Caesar Class, Poem — Carolyn Arch, Water Carrier Dance — four girls, Vacuum , a playlet — Virgil Class, Farewell — Jean Miller. An exhibit of a typical Roman Home, and various Roman characters carved on soap was displayed to the guests after the program. (93) ATHLETICS Nappanee is closing its sixth successful year in athletics. Four of these years were under the direction of Coach Longfellow and two under Coach Schuler. The basis of our success in athletics is our physical training program. Physical education is now a required subject in high school. There are four classes of boys and four of girls. The gymnasium is in use more than three-fifths of the time during the school day and almost every night from October 10th to March 1st. Many citizens think of a gymnasium largely in connection with a basket-ball game, and are sur- prised to learn that it is in daily use almost as much as any class room. The time will soon be here when no gymnasium will be idle on any school day or hour. Nappanee is a member of the Northern Conference of sixteen schools. She has been able to maintain a very creditable position in this conference. In basket-ball Nappanee tied for third place in the Eastern Division. In baseball and track we are never found in the cellar position, even though in the past we haven ' t even had a cinder path. During the past year improvements have been made upon our athletic field. Grading has been done so that soon we will have an excellent gridiron and diamond inside a good quarter mile cinder track. Four very fine tennis courts are complete with room for more in case they are needed. The Conference will soon learn that N. H. S. has some good tennis players. A small field house will soon be built for storage as well as for protection from bad weather and seating for spectators. Our program will not be complete until we have first-class training in health and physical education for every child, and in addition to this a variety of competi- tive athletics or sports in which every pupil who desires may participate. The four major sports are not enough to interest or engage all children. Our new school ground has a place for a girls ' athletic field. On this field they will be able to play baseball, soccer and other out-of-door games. Greece was at the zenith of her glory when every boy played games and loved music and art. America is rich enough to give every boy and girl a chance to play, to engage in athletic contests, and t o learn to love music and art. Our slogan is and has been: Play fair, play hard, be courteous. Win if you can. If you lose, be a sportsman and congratulate the other team. Keeping this slogan ever in mind the Nappanee teams have been welcomed and respected in every city in northern Indiana. The Class of 1930 wish for future teams continued success and the high respect accorded teams in the past. (96) ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION Nappanee High is proud to have as her coach a man like Mr. Schuler. He has helped to change the emphasis in the different branches of athletics so that our teams are known for their sportsmanship and spirit of co-operation. We wish him much success in the future. Mr. Abell and Mr. Goodrich managed the athletic department this year. Joe Lape served as trainer. Mr. Martin has been very faithful in follow- ing the basket-ball teams and keeping score for them. The teams wish to extend their appreciation to these men. HERMAN E. SCHULER Director of Athletics THE YELL LEADERS Our yell-leading squad for this season consisted of Margaret, Mickey McFall. Garnet, Sis Walters, and Dick Davis. Mickey has served in the position of yell leader for the past two years, but Sis and Dick served their first terms this season. They have worked faith- fully and much credit should be given to the yell leaders for the pep and enthusiasm shown by the students. (97) MITCHELL (MITCH) EATON (JIM) C.LEHMAN (CHftS) N.TROUP (HEWEY) riULLLTT (LOREY) DVNHAN (IRA) (98) THE BIG TEN IN BASKET-BALL IRA P HILLIPS Ike Ike , our flashy little floorguard. has played many a hard game for the Blue and White and by his clever passing and head work has won many games for them. Ike played three years on the varsity, played as a regular for two years, and acted as captain. He is leaving a place vacant that will be hard to fill. NEWELL TROUP Newey Newey played center on the team for two years and has won honors for the school as well as for himself. Newey had a very good eye for the basket and won some games by his being a good shot. You could always depend on him to get the tip-off. RALPH MITCHELL Mitch Mitch played as sub on the first team for two years and did not get to see much action; but he deserves much credit for his loyal spirit to old Blue and White. DILLARD LEHMAN Dip Dip played forward on the team for two years. He was a very good shot and very clever in passing the ball. Dip seemed to have a way of dribbling that could not be stopped. LOWELL MULLETT Lokey This was Lokey ' s first year in basket-ball and he seemed to be a success from the first, for he was big and could fill the position at backguard very well. Lokey has two more years to play. CHARLES LEHMAN Chas Chas played forward this year and proved to be very successful at this position, for he has a very keen eye for the basket. Charlie has two more years to make a name for N. H. S. JAMES EATON Jim Jim played on the second team this year and sub on the first. He got into a few of the first team games and seemed to be a promising man for next year; but he is leaving us and it looks like some other coach will be lucky. WAYNE DUNHAM Ira Ira was a sub on the first team this year and filled the position at backguard. It looks as though he should make good next year. WILFRED TROUP Willy Willy has already won a place in the hearts of many of the people, although he is but a Freshman. He has three more years to play for the Blue and White. FREDERICK LOPP Fritz Fritz is another one of our Freshmen that have made names for themselves. He is very fast and clever with the ball and should be a very dangerous man in three more years.

Troup, Coach Schuler. When we review the basket-ball season of 1929-1930, we recall many thrills and exciting moments that are so typical of the experiences of the basket-ball fan. It thrills one to know that Nappanee tied with Goshen for third place in the eastern division of the conference. This is no mean accomplishment when you stop to con- sider the keen competition existing among the schools, and the handicaps under which we were forced to work. The team of 1930 established itself as one of the leading teams of Northern Indiana by virtue of victories over South Bend and Goshen and by losing to LaPorte, Champions of the eastern division, by a three point margin. We opened the conference season with LaPorte who proved to be most worthy opponents. Little did anyone realize at that time, that we weie opposing the eastern division champions or even one of the sixteen teams to be represented at the state finals. We played the game determined to win. This fact may be verified in that Nappanee scored ten points during the second half while LaPorte scored eight. How- ever, this was not enough to overcome the five point lead established by the visitors during the first half and as a result the Naps lost their first conference game by a very small margin 23 to 20. Even in defeat we had every reason to be proud of our team- The boys displayed a fighting spirit and a type of basket-ball that reflects credit to any team. Although we did not know then, we have the satisfaction of knowing now, that we were playing against champions and were able to make a creditable showing. (100) During pre-season speculation our chief worry seemed to be centered upon what we believed to be the most difficult part of our schedule. We had drawn South Bend for a Friday night game and Goshen on the following night, two of the strongest teams in the conference. However, these games proved to be victories for Nappanee. We played our greatest basket-ball upon that memorable week-end. The team looked like champions. The South Bend team simply wilted under our rapid fire attack. Just forty seconds before the close of the first half the score stood 17 to 12 in favor of Nappanee. It doesn ' t seem possible but Nappanee scored four field goals in those forty seconds to take a 25 to 12 lead at the half. During the second half Nappanee had her own way winning by a score of 45 to 17, against a team that fin- ished one notch ahead of us in the conference, a performance that we can be proud to remember. The following night, at Goshen, our team continued to display the same brand of basket-ball that had given it such a decisive victory over South Bend the night before, and mastered the older and more experienced Goshen Redskins during the entire game. Goshen threatened toward the end of the game by cutting a ten point lead to tie the count but Nappanee proved to the world that they were unbeatable that night, and managed to retain a two point lead until the final gun winning by a score of 32 to 30. This victory above all others was considered most precious on account of the ancient rivalry existing between the two schools. The double victory over South Bend and Goshen not only gained profound respect for the Naps in Northern Indiana Basket-ball circles but enabled them to finish in third place in the conference, which is a real achievement for a small school in a big league.

The Nappanee Bull Pups had a very successful season, losing only two games out of seventeen which is a very good record. The Pups played some strong teams this year, such as Milford, South Bend, and Jamestown First Team. The Nappanee-Milford game was a very thrilling and exciting one to watch, for it was first one team ahead and then the other. The half ended 7 and 12 with Milford on the long end. In the second half, the Pups came back and tied it up 14 all, and then pushed ahead 16 and 14. Then Milford took time out and after play was resumed again, Milford pushed ahead and stayed there the rest of the game and it ended 16 and 23 in favor of Milford. Though the boys lost, it was a very in- teresting game. One of the biggest upsets of the year was the game with the South Bend Cubs. The Pups beat the Cubs 17-12. The Cubs were rated as a good team, for they had been traveling into different parts of Michigan and winning games without much trouble, but when they met the Pups, they met real opposition and the Cubs went down in defeat. The score was 13-1 at the half in favor of the Pups. The Cubs were let down within a field goal. They made both of their points on foul shots. (102) Another of the games that the boys should feel honored in winning was the game with Jamestown. They beat Jamestown 28-9; and in the sectional tourney at Goshen, Jamestown was beaten by only one point by Elkhart, the score being 14-15; and Elkhart was one of the big three at the tourney. One of the biggest disappointments to the second team was that the county did not hold a second team tourney this year on account of the lack of interest on the part of the fans. Not enough money could have been made to pay the expenses of the tourney. If there should have been one, there is no doubt that the Pups would have won it without much trouble. All of the boys that were on the second team have two or three years yet to play, and so in the future we should have some good teams.

There are quite a few persons out for tennis this spring and it looks as if we are going to have a good tennis team. We have more of an opportunity this spring, because in the past we have been handicapped by not having good courts upon which to play and practice, and now that new courts have been constructed we should be more able to compete with other schools.

The spirit of rivalry has been secured by teams contesting against other teams of the same class. Quite a number of our girls in physical education have acquired clever skill in basket-ball technique and all girls have played it with enjoyment. It has proved to be the favorite sport in physical education. Our basket-ball has helped to furnish noon entertainment for the pupils who have remained in school during the noon hour. All high school teams took part in a tournament which extended over a period of several weeks. Mary Pippen ' s team, composed of Garnet Walters, Katherine Mellinger, Bertha Geil, Mary Pippen, (cap- tain), Mary Furney, Helen Fowler, Helen Louise Ogden, and Arlene Conrad, won the tournament. Other teams played quite commendably, Margaret McFall ' s team being a close second to Mary Pippen ' s. Besides having a tournament at noon the girls also had special games. One was a contest between the town and country girls. A well fought victory was ex- pected by each side, but due to the snowstorm which occurred at that time and which made it impossible for some of the players to be in school, the game did not decide whether the country or city was the stronger. Although no definite plans have as yet been made, we hope in the future to make girls ' basket-ball along with other sports a regular part of the high school athletics for girls so that we may have intra-mural contests and thus allow any girl who wishes to, to take part whether or not she is in the physical education class. The May Pageant The girls in these classes also sponsored a Greek pageant, Springtime, ' ' which was given at the East Side Park. The pageant was directed by Miss Heckaman and the decorating was supervised by Mr. Byers. The pageant followed true Grecian style and proved a good entertainment for the May day fete.

The Yankees won the league championship by winning eight out of the ten games played; the Bears, however, ran a close second with seven games won out of ten games played. A faculty team played several noon hours. When the basket-ball season was over, volley ball games took the place of these noon basket-ball games. (109) SENIOR ATHLETES IRA PHILLIPS Ike Ira Phillips has made a name for himself and also has won many friends during his four years in High School. Ike seemed to be an all around man. He took part in track, baseball, and basket-ball, and proved to be very good in all of these. He played floorguard on the basket-ball team for three years, and held this position very well. In track he won first place in the low hurdles at Garrett and set a field record. This won him a trip to the state track meet, in which he did not participate since it would not profit the school to take only one man to the meet. He was awarded a sweater instead, which he deserves for his hard work. Baseball seemed to be one of his favorite sports and he has played on the high school team for four years. NEWELL TROUP Newey Newell Troup is the type who takes things the way they come and makes suc- cesses of seemingly unfavorable situations. Newey played two years on the varsity and one year on the second team that won the all county second team basket- ball tournament. Newey has played on the baseball team for three years, being one of the heavy hitters of the team. He has also taken part in track meets and won different events in these. DILLARD LEHMAN Dip Dillard Lehman has taken part in different sports throughout his high school career. He seemed to be better in basket-ball than in some of the other sports. By his accurate passing and shooting he has won many a game for the school. He also took part in a few track and field meets and played on the baseball team for two years. He was a very good pitcher for his size, but on account of injuries he could not take part in baseball and track this spring. RALPH MITCHELL Mitch Ralph Mitchell is another of our players that we are losing this year. He has been very loyal to the school and to the team. He played on the varsity for two years and on the second team one year. He has also taken part in baseball and track. He made a fair pitcher for no more training than he had. HAROLD UMBAUGH Umb Harold Umbaugh is a boy that has had a very hard time throughout his high school athletic career. It seemed that when anybody got hurt it was Harold. He played one year on the second team in basket-ball and one year on the varsity. He played on the baseball team for two years and was on the track team three years. On account of injuries, he could not participate in track this spring. RALPH MOORE Pete Ralph Moore has won some honors for himself in high school athletics. He played on the basket-ball team for two years and on the baseball team for three years. Pete took part in track and field meets for two years, but did not go out for track or baseball this spring. He was Student Manager when in his Freshman year. (HO) MAXWELL MISHLER Skin Maxwell Mishler played on the basket-ball team for one year and won a letter which he values very highly. Skin is a lad that kept the team in good spirits by cracking jokes and with his great laugh that everyone liked to hear. He could not play basket-ball in his senior year because of sickness. DAVID SHAUM Dave David Shaum is quiet and does not have much to say, but when he tries to make good he usually does it, for he is a lad that tries hard to accomplish the things that he undertakes. He played on the basket-ball team and the baseball team for two years. However, his favorite sport seems to be tennis, in which he can hold his own against any of the players that he has to meet. LLOYD STAHLY Peanut Lloyd Stahly played basket-ball on the second team for two years. He proved to be a very good man, for he could handle the ball well and had a good eye for the basket. GLENN BLEILE Blib Glenn Bleile has taken part in a few track meets and made good because of his perseverance and grit. He won numerals in interclass basket-ball, and should place in the track events this spring. DANSON SHAUM Quincy Danson Shaum is a brother to Dave and is also rather quiet. He is a very good tennis player, and has won a letter in tennis as well as numerals in interclass basket-ball.

FORT WAYNE, INDIANA (154) Living Up To A Name T IS a responsibility to print year after year, a high-school annual having so great a repu tation as the Napanet . Our printing house commands the confidence of many high-schools that has come from a long and satisfactory experi- ence. This company is now entering upon its eleventh year of fair and even generous dealing. We feel keenly the responsibility imposed upon us by the confidence of thou- sands of friends who are purchasers of printing and advertising products. This is one of the reasons why each new annual must be an improvement. We are con- stantly looking for means of improving our products. In printing and in the manufacture of printing products we do not know and will not learn any other method of doing business. E. V.
