At the end of the second semester all juniors and seniors were tested for mental and physical ability. Remedial math courses wereofiered to those who failed the math test. Our various school organizations sponsored many victory drives. Of course. we mustn't iorget the Iunior High vs. Senior High stamp and bond-buying contest.

With the Pearl Harbor stab in the back our school settled down to the grim business of war. Classes took on a new meaning: teaching and learning truly had a new significance. As the year progressed our school atmosphere changed. In place of dances, we spent our evenings in war work and other civilian defense classes. It soon became apparent that a thorough knowledge of math was necessary to guide our bomb- ers over Berlin and Tokyo and make it hot for Adolf and Tojo. Our spare money went into stamps and bonds instead of candy and cokes. We've lost some of our high school joys. but we've found satisfaction in serving. . 7 .

Marilyn Stodgell was responsible for the decorations at all the parties and dances. Marilyn's costume is an example ot the average kid's cos- tume. .3.

Since we didn't get a good picture ot the Christmas dance, we knew a good picture of the Spring dance was essential. qi More Activities For Students . . . During the year We pitched in and did all We could to further the War effort. Someone got the idea of collecting good books for the boys in service to read, books that they would be interested in reading. CThough an occa- sional Torn Sawyer or Rover Boy slipped in unnoticedl Despite these few exceptions, however, the victory book campaign Was very successful. The goal of 400 was reached partly through a school-Wide drive, partly through dances at which the admission was a good book, and through contributions of outsiders. Below is a group snapped around the Collection in the main hall. M'- iss. .10. Karl Krauskopf and Don Iarrett seemed to be having a good time, only we hope they didn't get too rough. Say, wouldn't it be bad for them if safety officer, Eddie Kaiser, saw them using our perfectly good flags to settle their differences. All the girls will remember the delight- ful Mother-Daughter Tea this year for sev- eral reasons, the entertaining book review Our Hearts Were Young and Gay by Mrs. Cartwright, the delicious refreshments, the good company, and, too, it gave them a chance to wear their new spring cha- peaux. Cl-fats to youll lnspirationall Inspirational, all you boys sighl But what the heck is the idea? We would answer, No idea especially, except that the author of the picture was inspired by the many different types of shoes around school and wanted to make you conscious of them, too. Principal Earl Delph explains how the girls can best help him check schedules. With the increased work to do, the office needed competent helpers like these. -ll Mary Ahnert discusses makeup work with Miss Maurine Motsenbocker, our new government teacher. Bob Miller and Lewis Roberts in a familiar set- ting, backstage. These two boys deserve a lot of thanks for their line, unlailing service all year. When it became necessary to obtain a new government teacher because of the vacancy lett when Mr. Ferris took over the boys' gym classes, the ad- ministration secured Miss Maurine Motsenbocker for the position. Since her arrival at P. H. S., Miss Motsenbocker has made a great success ot her gov- ernment classes. They have been made more interesting through the several iield trips and interviews she has arranged. She helped us struggle through the course through her counseling after school hours. The two stage managers, Bob Miller and Lewis Roberts, were always on hand when we needed them, for plays, parties and other similar occasions, whenever their services were needed. .12. Good Exercise Good Food . . . After the long winter months of finding our exercise and recreation in- doors, who can say that the pleasures of the open air don't appeal immensely to them. That is exactly what the kids in the lower left hand picture felt when they decided to spend an afternoon in the park. With the new gym classes came a new program of Utoughening up for the boys. One way this objective was accomplished was through instructive boxing. The roughouse method gave way to the more scientific way of self defense. However, indoor or outdoor exercise had its purpose in build- ing good American citizens. A familiar scene around school is that of the usual noon rush in the cafeteria. Thanks to Mrs. Nich- elson, who capably prepares the food and supervises the serving of it, we were assured of a tasty, well-prepared, well-balanced meal. WE DlDN'T NEGLECT OUR FUN EITHER . . . All work and no play had no place in Peru High, as is verified by the picture at the right. ln and out oi school our stu- dents enjoyed themselves. Clubs Were especially successful this year, many of them participating in all sorts of patriotic drives, such as a key drive, a stocking drive, bond drives, a stamp-buying con- test, scrap collection, and a victory book campaign. Since these clubs offered such varied activities, students had the oppor- tunity of joining the club best suited to their own personal likes. .14.

The presidential election Was held in a democratic manner. Two out- standing leaders were candidates and both campaigns were excellent. The climax of the campaign Was an auditorium in Which the candidates and their managers gave speeches and outlined their platforms. Our president, Bob Keyes, left in the middle of the year for Wabash College Where he is par- ticipating in the Navy's V-l program. Lila Mull then became our third girl student body president and Eileen Bessignano was elected vice-president. The first undertaking of the council was building a War stamp booth and striving to reach a sales goal of S5,0UU. Iunior High School challenged the high school to a War stamp contest Which ended in April. The Peru Lions Club awarded the winner with a plaque. A book drive for our local USO was sponsored by the council. An open dance was given to raise additional money for books and also to reward the students for their efforts. Perhaps the most outstanding project this year was the introduction of a Victory Corps into high school. The purpose of the Victory Corps is to prepare students for useful service in the armed forces and on the home front. lt is divided into six groups: the general membership, air service, land service, sea service, production, and community service divisions.

As its outstanding activity oi the year, the organization challenged the National Forensic League to a stamp-buying contest which the NFL won and which resulted in the Honor Society's having to entertain the NFL.

How Well They Served Our Girls' League came through once again with a successful year's work. In September, freshies were welcomed to the club and the school in general, through the efforts of the Big Sisters. The first social activity was the Kid Party, which everyone enjoyed especially because of the clever program written by Reah Iohnson. Follow- ing, in December, was the formal Christmas Dance. The annual Mother-Daughter Tea was held lanuary 29, at which time the book, Our Hearts Were Young and Gay, was entertainingly reviewed by Mrs. lohn Cartwright of Greencastle. Concluding the All the boys in P. H. S. are invited to be- long to the Boys' League. Through this help- ful organization the boys develop a spirit of fellowship and make many friends which they will keep through life. Scarcely a club in school contributed more in the way of service than this club. They presented a very fine Thanksgiving auditorium. The an- nual Father-Son Banquet was held Febru- ary 4. Another annual affair was the l-lard Times Dance held April l6. All through the year they served in many ways, such as 5 arranging pep sessions, guarding doors at I' the dances, and helping collect scrap. year's activities was the Spring Sweater Hop held March l9.

The Senior Hi-Y is one of the many or- ganizations contributing to the War effort. The boys checked coats for many U. S. O. dances, helped to decorate for the Valentine Dance, Were responsible for equipment for the Cadet Dance, and served as monitors for the Bed Cross on Achievement Day. The Iunior Hi-Y promoted a Sunday School Appreciation Campaign Within the group. Members of the club were divided into two sections, the Winning section was given a picnic by the losing one. They also gave the annual Mother-Son and Best Girl Banquets. The Peru Hi-Y clubs were among the best represented in the District Conference which was held at Lafayette. They maintained this record at the Older Boys' Conference in ln- dianapolis. Congratulations to the boys who help to build morale! Hats Off To The Future Farmers The F. F. A. builds men for the future. Through Mr. Guthrie's constant efforts and through the cooperation of the members of the club, it ended the year in a blaze of glory. This year due to War restrictions there was no state fair. The boys maintained their high standards at the county fair. Bob Miller, George Spangler, and the Catey brothers were among the Winners. The club conducted an individual scrap drive and stamp drive. lt gave a number of programs in the forrn of discussions, speech- es, and demonstrations for various farm meetings. Bud Beck placed first in the Dis- trict Farm Bureau Speaking Contest, and Dale Clark Won the first prize for public speaking on Achievement Day with his top- ic, The Farmer at War. ln the District meet the chapter Won the single-ear corn contest and several members distinguished themselves by other awards.

Speech Work Popular This Year Masque and Gavel members regretted the loss of their president, Rod Bayless, and a member, Bob Keyes, to Uncle Sam. Every member found by cooperation that he could promote school and community citizenship. The club gave a play and was instrumental in the success of small debate meets. At no other time has the slogan, Speech in Use Nationally Recognized, been more appropriate than this year. When the mem- bers did research, they found other Masque and Gavel clubs suffered the same handi- caps. Speech rose to a new high in America and in Peru High School. This war year brought many changes to all of us, National Forensic League was con- fronted With the problem of being unable to do interscholastic work. Their solution was to put on programs in the community. The topics of some were Development of Speech, Panel Discussion, Speech Fol- lies, and High School Auditoriumsf' War also curtailed gccd times.

Although some schools dispensed with their annuals this year, our school and school officials felt an even greater need for one. We felt that this was a year which must be recorded. The war will undoubtedly make changes. We will all lose friends, whom we want to remember, and few of us will think to keep any other record of our war years in high school. However repeat- edly we hear from various organizations, 'lYes, certainly we keep and file away copies of the Annual. The best records we could ever keep. Thus, the '43 Narcissus went to press as usual. However, despite our difficulties in ob- taining materials and service, we didn't feel half so proud of ourselves after reading an account of the difficulties Maryknoll School in Honolulu had in going ahead and getting out their annual. After the Pearl Harbor attack in December, 1941, their school was tempor- arily closed, and when it did reopen a great many of their students were engaged in de- fense work, thus cutting their annual staff considerably. To make things more difficult the U. S. Engineers took over part of the campus and classrooms, and the remaining portions were dug up into trenches and shelters, but that didn't stop those deter- mined students. The result-the Tribute of Maryknoll School received First Class Honor Rating. Portrays P. H. S. at War Working on a yearbook affords the op- portunity for the study of good English, good writing, creative art, photography, and bus- iness practice. lt's a democratic project, too, for the yearbook is published for every student. No matter his color, race, or creed-or the side of the track from which he comes, that book is his. What an excellent example of democ- racy in action. No wonder it is that the high school yearbook is purely an American in- stitutionf' The problem of financing the Narcissus was capably handled by Miss Wood, who had charge of subscriptions and recordsg Miss Rupp, who had charge of advertisingg and their staffs. Both departments are to be complimented on their good work. Subscrip- tions hit a new high this year, due partly to the Narcissus auditorium in September, at which time pledge cards were distributed by members of the staffs and signed by the student body. Narcissus Business Staff . . . The advertising staff did a Wonderful job on ads. A contest was held among them to see who could sell the most. The reward, of course, was the job of advertising manager, which was won by Betty Zimmerman. The staff sold more ads this year than they have in the past seven years. This achievement is particularly noteworthy as the war affected the sale of ads, too. This is accountable to the fact that many businesses went out of business entirely, and many of them were limited as to the things they sold, and didn't think it worthwhile to advertise the few things they did have for sale. Due to our super-salesmen, however, many of these merchants were convinced that they should advertise again this year. Three Narcissus staff members attended the twenty-second annual ISHSPA conven- tion at Franklin this year. They were Lois Wildman, Pat Lininger, and Reah Iohnson. Narcissus Collectors . . .

For the first time in many years, the PERUVIAN editors had a great deal of pre- vious training. ln fact the 1942-43 news- paper was built around its editorial staffs experience. Kent Goodman, editor-in-chief had spent two years as a PEBUVIAN re- porter and associate editor and had studied journalism for four weeks at Northwestern University during a special summer course before taking over an editor's responsibili- ties. Ierolyn Harrison was associate editor and was charged with arranging the staff into cub, regular, and star reporters.

F or the sec- ond straight year, Blair Nattkemper ruled the sports page, covering all football and bas- ketball games, and Tiger Tales. Some few staff members, through continual effort, were rated as Star reporters most of the year, while others were just flash-in-the-pans. Mainstays were headed by Elvin Garland, FFA reporter for the past two years. Ruth Wold, a freshman, proved her worth by her feature articles. Brightest of all, though, were Karl Krauskopf, Suzanne Lawyer, and lune Hunt. These three did their best PEBUVIAN P. H. . Capable Peruvian Staff Work during the second semester, when they learned and experienced make-up, head- line writing, proof reading, and copy read- ing. One of the PEBUVlAN'S improvements was the addition of more pictures each week, all taken by photographer Iohn Waltz. Securing advertising and exchange were Lila Mull's chief duties as business man- ager. Although most of the time the newspaper life was both work and fun, this year's staff experienced one of Peru High's greatest tragedies. Miss Margaret Popham, who for the two years previous had supervised the PERUVIAN, was forced to give up teaching because of ill health, and early in Novem- ber died in her home town. Her job was successfully filled by Miss Kathryn Shy, English and journalism teacher. The main event of the year was the Indiana High School Press Association conference at Franklin College, which twelve staff mem- bers attended. Their wanderings still are public gossip. By winning the Quill and Scroll National Headline Writing Contest, Kent Goodman brought for the second straight year this honor to the PEBUVIAN. Lila Mull placed Peruvian Business Staff . . .

' second in the East Central section of the ad- vertising writing contest. The Peruvian typography was in charge of Mr. D. H. Boone. Although handicapped because many of his print shop boys enlist- ed or were drafted into war service, Mr. Boone elevated the newspapers printing standards. New headline type was purchas- ed to coincide with the Peruvian's stream- lined make-up. This year's staff set some important goals which they achieved, the most important being the furtherance of the American war effort in the high school by means of editorials, news stories, and forms of propaganda within articles. Politically the publication demanded more student council action, and did succeed in leading the coun- cil to vote for meetings once each week in- stead of every other week. Main editorial campaigns, concerning the representative body, were for a better points and awards system and more council efficiency. Gossip columns were a thing of the past, as the Peruvian told no tales of romance. Every week the newspaper ran a column entitled Candid Close-ups, which contained pic- tures and interviews with three outstanding students. Peruvian Print Boys . . .

Under the efficient leadership of Miss Hester Wood, the club has had several outside speakers. Among the speakers were Mrs. Earl Ferris, Mrs. Edith Wright, and Mr. Mag- nus Hansen. Getting a Iob was the central theme discussed throughout the year. The officers for the year Were: president, Kath- leen Blair, vice-president, Beverly Russell, secretary, lane Ellen Thoennes. Home Economics Club Aids in War Effort One of the most active clubs around school is the Home Economics Club which is under the leadership of Miss Bertha Tereba. Two delegates from Peru were sent to the annual convention at Indianap- olis. At this convention the girls, Marilyn Otiker and Marjorie Richardson, learned of the year's plans for the club. The programs for the year consisted ot discussions on War-time activity and the conservation ot vital materials such as the fats used in frying, and tin salvage. As an additional project, twenty-tive pairs oi flannel bed slippers Were made for the Red Cross. ln October an initiation was held for the new members. On December 21, a Christmas party Was held. Officers for the year Were: president, Thelma Otikerg vice-president, Mar- jorie Richardsong secretary, Barbara Sease, treasurer, Marilyn Otiker. Home Economics Club . . . ROVV l-McMinn, Elliott, A.

Students join Hobby Clubs Now in its fifth year as a popular organ- ization of Peru High School, the Photography Club started the first semester's activities with the election of officers. Iohn Waltz, last year's president, was chosen for that office again. Keith Shafer was elected vice-presi- dent and Patricia Lininger, secretary-treas- urer. The club with an enrollment of twenty- seven members meets two home room per- iods, the second and fourth Monday each month. lt is the object of the club to discuss some phase of photography each meeting. Several meetings were devoted to the discussion of Kodacolor. Members learned about the pro- cess of taking, developing, and printing pic- tures. Members brought in samples of their own Work, including some pictures of the very earliest types of trains. The Science Club has played an impor- tant part in the activities of Peru High '30 School, it forms an ideal medium through which the students may discuss the different phases of science and may come into a closer understanding with them. The club has seventeen members and the officers are lack Sherrill, president, Elmer Lemon, secretary-treasurer, and Donn Ra- mer, vice-president, and Mr. less Dice, spon- sor. ln its meetings the club held discussions on airplanes, motors, and firearms, together with the study of ballistics of both the an- cient and modern weapons. They have shown moving pictures on internal combus- tion engines and have also studied and demonstrated various explosives with a com- parison of black and smokeless powders. Planes are being made for a Model Air- plane Club. When the planes are completed, they are to be tested in a wind tunnel that the club will build. Victory Chorus Organized This Year Outstanding among the clubs in our high school curriculum is the mixed chorus. lt is composed of seventy-seven pupils, twenty boys and fifty-five girls, most ably directed by Carter Brown. Among the many numbers practiced and perfected by the chorus are: Russian Lul- laby, The Song is Ended, Mighty Lak a Rose, All the World is Waiting for the Sun- rise, The Builder, Moonlight and Roses, and Allah's Holiday. Interest and entertainment have been added to many of Peru High School's func- tions by the chorus. They plan to sing On- ward Ye Peoples by lean Sibelius for bac- calaureate services, and Russian Lullaby and The Song is Ended by Irving Berlin and The Builder by Cadman for Spring Festival. From the mixed chorus was selected a Victory Chorus composed of the following members: loan Harrison, Iune lackson, Ma- rion Sams, Rita Corbett, Betty Brittain, Bar- bara Esslinger, Ann lean Morris, Patricia Arland, Mary Cauley, Frances Dorsam and Maralene Carson. Wearing red sweaters, blue skirts and white blouses and standing in V forma- tion, their appearance creates a patriotic effect. Featured soloist is Ioan Harrison. They have sung at many school functions and auditoriums, the Mother-Daughter Tea, Girls' League Kid Party and the Band Par- ents' Association. Various civic organizations in Peru have asked them to sing including the Kiwanis and Rotary clubs. Mixed Chorus . . .

We're Proud of Cut Band The band and orchestra, under the direc- tion of Mr. Carter Brown, provide the finish- ing touch for almost all school activities, and tor parades and other civic affairs. Small groups of the band gain additional exper- ience by playing at PTA meetings and for auditoriums. This year we have a marching band of ninety-five which performs at all football and basketball games, helping to arouse that old school spirit. The members frequently work well into their noon hour perfecting the drills. This year the band's outstanding exhibitions were given at the Christmas game and at the game in which sailors from the local Naval Aviation Base were guests. On February l8, our band. fur- nished the music for the celebration of the opening of the Victory Ordnance Corpora- tion. Many graduate members of the band are now serving in the armed forces, as are Vernon Marks and Ralph Bentzel, two of this year's members. This is Arthur Piper's sec- ond year as band captain. l-le is also in charge of the pep band, which is a group of about fifteen boys who furnish the music for our pep sessions. lack Comerford is stu- dent director of this talented group of rising musicians. The librarians, who write off music and take care of the music and fold- ers, are Myla Vandercook, Marjorie Mau- gans, Mary Dailey, and Maralene Carson. The color guard is composed of Allen Akers, Bill Blue, Dick Fox, and Arthur Ellis. Melvina Pearce is head drum majorette, and her competence and talents are reflected by her eight assistants, Francis Dorsam, Sally Tan- co, Betty Leill, Norma May Zipperian, Shirley McCreary, Pat Ienkins, Betty Weaver, and lune Martin. This is the third year with the band for lohnnie Mack and Raymond Dale Sonafrank, the majorettes' shadows They are becoming quite masterful in the art of twirling a baton, and they are never seen out of step. Last summer loan Harrison, first chair flute player, received a five-week scholarship to Petrie Band Camp at Winona Lake. New High in Orchestra Membership Mr. Brown has achieved a new high in orchestra membership. Student interest in this subject has increased each year since he came to PHS until' now there is a class enrollment of thirty-seven which, when sup- plemented by band members for public per- formances, makes a full orchestra of fifty. This group is used at plays, baccalaureate services, and commencement exercises, and this year played at the program given by Carroll D. Alcott. Various string ensembles play for banquets, parties, and teas. Leo Lil- lard is student director of the orchestra.

One organization which could never receive enough credit is that of the concession sellers. Most of us don't realize that it is this group of loyal workers who make it possible for the rest of the clubs around school to function. You never fail to see them at all the basketball and football games. They are really getting quite proficient at catching the money of someone four or five rows up. Their Work is certainly a tiresome, thankless job. They often Cquite oftenl get told Sit downl or Down in frontl while selling. This Was the second year that girl ushers were used at PHS basketball games. Chosen by the Girls' League, these girls distinguished themselves for their graciousness and pretty smiles. They were chosen from every class, and each girl was glad to do her duty in assisting others. The school provided them with gold and black sweaters, and the girls supplied their own black skirts. Their leader, a senior, was Margaret Pearcy. ROW l-Poage, Allbaugh, Geis- elman, Hoagland, Gochenour, . . . . . . .Dick Brindle Lights Out, Curtain, The Play ls On!

The athletic program has become more than ever the backbone ot the schools spirit by entering a new era of net seas- ons in breaking the ancient Logan linX and capturing Peru's tirst regional. Foot- ball is regaining its former momentum with much ot the credit due to our new coach, Mr. Earl Ferris. Track also has be- come more than ever an up and coming sport ot Peru High. During this period of struggle it has been the main object of athletics to de- velop a program in which each boy and girl can find a sport suited to his or her personal taste.

The Peru Tigers are known over the entire state as a hard-hitting team with plenty of ferocity. Although the team hasn't fared so well in the scor- ing department, it has added glory to its name by outdoing its opponents in all others. When you think of Logansport, you think of their basketball team, when you think of Peru, its immortal grid squad of a few years ago immediately pops into Your mind. The '42 team was fortunate to have two from its ranks chosen for a shelf on the all conference team. These two heroes of Peru High were Ioe Saine and Don Iarrett. Even though we won only four out of the nine games of our season, it was an unforgettable and memorable one. Our starting game was quite a letdown, West Lafayette 25, Peru U, but we made it up by smearing New- castle into a 27 to 7 kill. Then the time when luck edged out the Tigers of a Victory over Marion by a touchdown and a field goal: Peru O, Marion 7. Football Coaches . . . Yell Leaders . . .

Football Club Activities High in Training Value . . . This was the year the Ferrismen broke Logan for six points and won the game, Peru 6, Logan O. The Bengal eleven defeated the Elwood team 6 to O and then the Peru Tigs were drubbed by the Huntington squad 25 to 21 for the final game of the season. lt seems that Lady Luck was very cold toward the Tigers this season, take the Wabash game, for instance, when we were defeated by one measly point. Another highlight of the season was the time the Peru griclders slashed the lesser Monticello team to shreds with their speed and powerful line for a bang up victory, Peru 45, Monticello U. Peru's football men met every other week in Mr. Ferris' football club. The club's main object was to make the players familiar with different types of plays and their execution. -39 Don Iarrett, husky tackle and one of Peru's all conference gridders, was elected as pres- ident, while loe Saine, hard hitting tackle, also an all conference player, was vice- prexy and Bob Keyes, quarterback and now calling signals for Uncle Sam, held down the secretary's post. Players and coach worked together, and the results will probably show up in next year's grid team. Quick end runs and tricky lateral passes, off tackle plunges, and long forwards were talked over and charted for quick adoption when the time came. Team- work and hard practice were stressed as the points that change good teams to spectacu- lar game-winning machines. These club ac- tivities have this year, as in previous years, been outstanding and high in training value. ,W , Last Minzcte Instructions . . . While Manager Cogan looks on ap- provingly, Coach Ferris deftly outlines one of his many new plays which add- ed greatly to the ferocity of the Fight- ing Tigsf' No doubt he will have a winning team next year-with the rigid rules of training he has set up. Mr. Fer- ris and Mr. Ortwein, assistant coach, working together did an excellent job of whipping the boys into shape. In most of the departments except scoring, the Tigers performed as well or better than did their opponents. Football Starting Team . . .

This season Peru's Yell Six and the Tiger fans have proved that the battle can be fought in the bleachers as well as on the field by putting that old Ben- gal fire and fight into the team ot '42 with almost hilarious madness. But even though those carrnel-scented apples seemed to find our coats, and the rain and sleet was wet and cold, the fans fought on from the second the pigskin suffered its first slamming till the Peru grid squad carried Old Lady Victory off the gridiron as the final shot rcsounded through the roaring night air.

Is it possible that the evening of October 9, 1942, can be forgotten and laid in the shade. We met Logan in the midst of- a sea of mud and rain that poured from the seeth- ing heavens. We battled the Berries nip and tuck for seemingly ages, then in the last moments of the game, loe Saine broke loose for a spectacular dash and a winning touch- down. Shaking the pools of water from our boots, we plodded out of Bengal Stadium for a little jive at the school victory dance. Only the rain drowning out the Navy Band mar- red the evening. Peru's Dauntless Tigers . . . The '43 team gave their all in keeping the school name high in athletic circles this year. The Tigers fought with all the spirit and spring ol their jungle namesakes. Don larrett, senior tackle and All State player, made opponents think his legs were on catapults the way he stopped line plays and opened king-size holes in their lines. Lawrence was the other tackle and, along with guards Saine and Thrush made black and gold stand out on those quick through-the-line plays. Pearce and Davis at ends broke through, snared passes, and made themselves generally useful on all plays. Dick Brewer, at cen- ter, played every minute ot every game, this is praise enough tor him. The backiield aces were Bob Keyes at the signal calling po- sition, Sawyer, Holland, and Bayless at the halt-back spots, and Briner at full-back. Their teamwork was portrayed in every movement, their spirit in every player's lace. Graduation and the service will leave noticeable gaps in the '44 team. Though many ot the key men will have graduat- ed and gone into the service, watch for Lighty, Arnold, lack- son, l-laskett, Smith, and Brindle to come into their own. Football Team . . . ' ROW l-G.

Peru's Fighting Tigs have blazed a new trail in the history of Peru's hardwood squads by taking their first regional. lt will be up to the '44 team to follow up this victory by adding a semi- and possibly a state champion- ship to the glory of the gold and black. Yes, at last, for the first time in the lndiana State Tourney history, Lady Luck has carried the Bengal Quintet into the money by drubbing the much favored Logan Berries in the afternoon game at the Bengal Den, and edging out the lesser Monticello cagers in the night session of the Regional. Milroy did one of the finest jobs of guarding and led the Tigers on to victory by splitting the nets for high man. Perhaps we can look forward to future net seasons with an aspect of rating a regional and semi, and possible state championship due to the slashing of the Berry 11n:1. Basketball Coaches . . . lt has taken Coach Clare Holley and Assistant Coach Ferris to bring the hardwooders of Peru High School out of their life-long rut. Mr. Holley has laid down a set of training rules that has really molded the Tiger Quintet into a very effective ball club. This is Mr. Ferris' first year at Peru, and we hope he will have many more successful seasons as coach of the football eleven. Duke l-lolley is the veteran coach of several years at Peru and is greatly responsible for developing the track team as well as the basketball team into first-rate organizations. Breathlessly the crowd watched the tense opening jump of the Peru-Bunker Hill game. The Peru cagers have had a fairly suc- cessful season by racking up ten ot her eighteen net meets. larrett led the Tigers as high scorer tor the tive victories ot the tirst six games. The luck we held in the warm-up game ran out as we plunged into the tougher per- iod ot the season, and we tell short of victory by a scant margin of one or two points sev- eral times. Ever since the Peru-Rochester upset game, the Tigers have assumed the title ot the state's chief defensive team. Ray McMinn tied with Iarrett for the season's high score man. Dick Milroy, the Tigs' chosen captain, held the highest percentage for accuracy in toul shooting. The seniors of '43 should be proud to have graduated during a year with such a ball team behind it.

T C The basketball season of l942-43 was ex- tremely difficult for the Bengal Cubs due to the relinquishing of their aces to replace those of the varsity squad who left for the armed forces. ln spite of this handicap and the collapse of the freshmen cagers throw- ing several inexperienced but hard-playing and skillful freshmen in the B team ranks, the Bengal Cubs racked up eight Winning games out of sixteen and held the oppon- ents down to a total of 297 points compared with the Tigers' 287. The Peru B's flashed out in grand style by Winning four of the first five games, but bogged down in the second semester. This is Coach Ferris' first year at Peru, coaching football in the fall and the Peru am Scores Successful Season B team during net season. Mr. Ferris be- lieves that the team has improved beauti- fully and has played a good, clean game throughout the season. The cagers were crowded out in the first game of the County Tournament by Bunker Hill in a thrilling overtime game by one point, Peru 29, Bunk- er 3O. The entire B team league was se- verely threatened this fall when it was ques- tioned Whether they were essential to the nations athletic program. The Peru Cubs should be given special credit and impor- tance in the athletic program due to the abolishing of the freshman team. lf you can judge next year's varsity by this year's B team, Peru should have a bang-up season for next year. 44' ports From the Feminine Angle Building women lor tomorrow through work and play, is the motto the GAA girls live by Iune Hunt led the group lor the second consecutive year, Gabby Gabriel held the reins of vice-president, and Pat McGrew kept the key to the sate. Charlotte Evans and Mildred Rob inscn were the secretaries. When Miss Shidelers whistle blew, the girls began the annual volley ball tournament The basketball tournament, relays, and group games followed in rapid succession. A point system is kept and those who have titty points receive a minor letter, those with one hund red points receive a major letter. A few of the more ambitious girls make one hundred and titty and tor this achievement they receive chevrons. The club subscribes to Sportingly Yours, a magazine published by the lndiana League ot High School Girls' Athletic Asso- ciations. One of the girls wrote a clever ar- ticle about this year's activities and acquired the distinction ot being on the publication's honor roll. The girls added a touch of color to loot- ball games by making armbands for PHS students. Candy, hot dogs, cottee, and ice cream are on the list as musts at games, so cooks and hostesses got busy. All work and no good times makes Ger- aldine a dull girl. However, the Geraldines of GAA were anything but dull. A Christmas party, scavenger hunts, and just parties provided good lun tor everyone.

We realized, this year more than ever, the importance of 'ldigging in and get- ting the most out of our school work. Teachers and students alike gave their all for making a successful year. Gladly would they learn, and gladly teach. Learning together, While Working on fuel rationing, Red Cross work, first-aid and defense classes, faculty and students at- tained a oneness in service on the home front. This spirit of cooperativeness is illustrated in the faces of the students and teachers in the classroom. .45. Miss Wood explains filing to her shorthand clcz Qui' EHicient Board Takes the Initiative The difficult job of directing hundreds of boys and girls through school rests in the competent hands of the Board of School Trustees. A school in wartime is in many ways different from a school in peacetime. Introducing new and essential courses into the high school is a task being accomplished every day. Boys and girls are leaving our school fully prepared to serve their country. New eve- ning courses are being offered to boys, girls, men, and women, under expert supervision, so they may go forth to serve a nation at war. Mr. Crodian, our superintendent, often visits classes, calling at- tention to changes that could be made for the utilization of time and energy. Miss McDowell, the clerk, is always good to answer any ques- tions which may arise during the day. Meeting about twice a month, the school board decides what is best for the child and the school. All important decisions originate from this source. School Board . . . Left to right: Mr, C. D. Kessler, Mrs. Grace Hawley, Mr. William A. Hammond, and Mr. I. P. Crodian, superintendent. .4g.

You often find her running off the next day's announcements in the super- intendents office while discussing the day's activities with Mr, Crodian's able secretary, Miss Guisinger. These are the women behind the scenes of a seemingly ordinary school day. They take care of all correspondence and answer telephone calls as Well as answer the in- numerable questions asked each day by high school students. Principal . . . The job of acting principal was taken over by Mr. Earl Delph when Mr. Richard Bateman left to serve in the Navy. Mr. Delph's sense of fairness and understanding is recognized by all of the students. He likes nothing better than to have a heart-to-heart talk with a student who is having difficulty in his school work. His great- est ambition in these troubled times is to have every boy able to finish his high school education and receive a diploma. The task of being a principal is not an easy job and many are the headaches it can cause. The many excellent auditoriums this year are an eX- ample of the benefits Mr. Delph is trying to bring to the students. Today our principal has charge of teaching a large group of young men and young Women to believe in Democracy and to live the American Way. wp- Mr. Earl L.

We are forced to stop and consider this new world that has taken form in front of our very eyes. Not only the school but our own lives have taken on a new meaning. We have suddenly realized that our teach- ers aren't just a part of the furniture in the classroom but have shown themselves to be some of our most patriotic citizens. And we are proud of them. New students and new teachers have been introduced into our midst this year and many have left for the armed forces. Mr. Black, whose entree as lieutenant into the Navy February 4 has been capably replaced by Mr. Hale, nevertheless has left a vacancy. I-lis subject of metal work, along with draft- ing, blue print reading, and woodwork taught by Mr. Fisher and Mr. Rector have proved to be vital knowledge for war work and therefore these teachers have under- taken the extra burden of instructing night classes. Speaking of night classes, we have Miss Wood, Miss Rupp, and Mrs. Campbell teaching their commercial subjects at night to adult classes. Miss Tereba also has a night class of nutrition for adults. These teachers have been very active in USO work, the blood donor unit, and the Red Cross. Mr. Phil Ortwein, Physical Education Miss Mildred Shideler, Physical Education and First Aid Miss Bertha A. Tereba, Home Ec, Health, First Aid Mr, Clare M. Holley, Health, U. S. History, First Aid Mr. Ferris and Miss Shideler are our phy- sical education instructors. ln addition to her enlarged gym classes, as a result of the re- quirement of physical education for juniors and seniors, Miss Shideler has also first aid classes to consider. Mr. Ferris, our football coach, has shown us what our teams can do. Miss Nixon, our new nurse, who so helpfully gave her serv- ices and cooperation in the physical exam- inations given to juniors and seniors, has proved a valuable asset to our faculty. Although We have had a fuller year than usual, with added requirements, we have continued our outside activities to a great extent. For the many posters and effective decorations we are indebted to Miss Knud- son, our new art supervisor, who so gra- ciously donated her talents. Mr. Ortwein, who left for the Army Air Corps during the second semester, was the boys' gym instructor, and Mr. Ferris took over these duties. Among other numerous requirements to which the seniors, especially, have been subjected were the state examinations, math and mental tests. Mr. Davis, Mr, Rufe, and Miss Reed were the ones who took on the work of giving the tests, grading and in- structing those who failed to pass, in the remedial courses. Mr. Omer Fisher, Drafting, Blue Print Reading Mr. D, H, Boone, Printing, Shop Mathematics Mr. Carter M, Brown, Music Supervisor .51. Some of the more familiar faces about PHS include Miss Hoffman, Mr. Boone, and Miss Finch, who can be seen struggling with the other teachers with that ever in- creasing problem-rationing. Mr. Brown, who has worked so faithfully with our or- chestra, band, and chorus, is to be congrat- ulated for his services rendered to the school. Miss Atchison, small but mighty, fills the position of librarian and in her spare time, knits and helps at the Red Cross. Miss Shy, who isn't the least bit, is one of our new and popular teachers. Besides her extensive duties as Peruvian adviser, she finds time to help in the GSO and the Blood Donor Unit. This year has found the different clubs actively engaged in helping with the war effort and their fine backing can be con- tributed to Miss l-lornish and Miss Hutton, two of many. Miss Stutesman, our Dean of Girls, gives her unselfish interest to the girls and their problems, and warmly welcomes the new students. Miss Arnold, sponsor of the annual, is a member of the Board of Management of the USO and was in charge of the Girls' Service Organization. Mr. Gilbert, Dean of Boys, has the difficult problem of advising Mr, less E. Dice, Physics, Chemistry, Aeronautics Miss Florence Rupp, Typewriting boys as to their future in connection to the war. Mr. Lawson has averted part of his in- terest from his debate team and collections to working with the Speakers' Bureau for County Defense Corps. Mr. Holley coached a very successful year in basketball, and he, too, taught first-aid classes. Certainly everybody is acquainted with room lU5 and the ghastly aromas arising from it. Mr. Dice is our latest science teacher and is also teaching aeronautics. Then there's our biology instructors, Mr. Oury and Mr. Bittel, under whose guidance we find freshies diligently delving into the whys and wherefores of the basic facts of nature and her mysterious ways. With the need of farmers and their vital job of producing food comes the work of Mr. Guthrie, vocational agriculture super- visor, who is proud to state that he has mastered that fine art of bicycle riding and can be seen exhibiting this ability coming to and from school. Miss Motsenbocker, who took over Mr. Ferris's duties as government teacher, made our classes more interesting through many field trips. Mr. Noel E. Davis, Geometry, Advanced Mathematics Miss Nellie Reed, Mathematics Miss Margaret Atchison, Librarian Miss Hester Wood, Shorthand, Com. Law, and Sec. Training Miss Fern Hoffman, Bookkeeping, Ir.

Oury, Biology and Government Mr. William H. Bittel, Biology and Vocations Senior Officers . . . alene Carson, Dick Milroy. P. H. S. lost a gridiron star, and the seniors lost the class vice-president, when Rodney Bayless joined the armed forces. Rodney is the lad who is non- chalantly leaning against the door. Bobbie Turner, the smiling damsel with the golden hair, Was the class treasurer. A love of fun and fairness places Bobbie high on the roll of popularity. Attractive Maralene Carson served as secretary. This is only one of a number of triumphs for Maralene. She Was class president in her sophomore year and class secretary in her freshman year. Dick Milroy, one of our most outstanding netmen, Was the president of this persistent class. Dick has had this honor twice, for he was also prexy in his freshman year. These are the leaders of this year's graduating class. They guided one hundred and eighty-five American youths to a goal of honor, self-reliance, and heavenly bliss. The senior class produced an excellent play, gave boys who fought relentlessly for the gold and black, and left with P. H. S. an appreciation for respect, reverence, and resourcefulness. With the thrill of graduating comes the sentimentality of leaving behind something you have learned to love, underclassmen lose friends and advisers. Everyone is sad When the time of parting comes, but all of us are proud that We have made friendships and have helped to make our school a better one. .54. Leaders Rodney Bayless, Bobbie Turner, Mar- For a Year of Victory . . . lerry Iackson, the lad at the left, was the junior class vice-president. This solemn young boy is the Charles Martin l-lall of P. H. S. The lass perched on the post is Iune Hunt, the versatile prexy. Iune is interested in athletics and journalism. Ianet Knott, the winner of algebra and Latin contests, kept notes of all the important meetings, and Iosephine Wheeler, the last in the picture, was the class bookkeeper. losephine has had this honor for two successive years. Three cheers for the sophomoresl Under the leadership of Roddy Mc- Daniels the class of '45 led the school in the stamp and scrap drives. Mitchie Hopper, the red-headed treasurer, is a future optometrist, and Ann Hodson, the class secretary, may be a movie star for she was the sophomore beauty queen. Tom Landis, the smiling fellow sitting on the post, was the vice-pres- ident of this energetic class. Tom McBride is one of the smallest boys in the freshman class, but he filled the job of vice-president competently. Pat Turner, the sister of the senior class treasurer, was the secretary of her class. The lad who is flanked by the two smiling lasses is Ted Coomler, class president. Ted made a name for himself in speech work and as an all-around fellow. Pam Kahre, of the smiling fair sex was class treasurer. She is known for her vibrant personality and cheerfulness.
