Now Mr. Cline, the engineer, with stern and steady face. Controls the lorton engine at a safe but speedy pace. Conductor too is Mr. Cline. and through the cars he goes, Alert to e ' ry move, and thus he walks down all the rows; When ]3assengers unruly are, and wrong intent is plain. He looks up all the evidence, then puts them off the train. He has a corps of helpers brave, — there ' s one for ev ' ry car — Vho gladly show the passengers what all the wonders are ; They indicate the scenery, the stations mark with care. Until the passengers have learned all places ev ' rywhere. The fireman, Mr. Thompson, with an ever-watchful eve. Does shovel in the coal to make the engine onward fly. And when the fire is roaring, and there ' s nothing else to do, He gets a big and mighty wrench and tightens ev ' ry screw : .And then to lessen wasted power and free from needless jolts. He tightly clamps each stray, loose nut and straightens crooked bolts. ] Iiss Parke must oil machinery, lest friction interfere. And all the little jiarts she cleans and shines them bright and clear. She carries ' round a large oil-can that she has always liad. Though some might rashlv call it just a pencil and a pad. She kec]5s all joints a-running just as easy as can be. And thus she hel])s the Morton train to run so steadily. The three together keep the train on its victorious way. The moral ? Plain it is, mv friend. ' Tis teamwork wins the dav !

The record and perhaps the most important function is to foster a closer relationship between the principal and the student body. It gives the principal a most aluable insight into the desires and needs of the students and g-i es them a sympathetic understanding and a feeling of comradeship for the faculty. This year the Student Council has s])cnt much effort in tr ing to foster an interest in Bible stud ' and deliating so- cieties.

Atljlrttrs 8 Page forty-five C( )ACH Harold M. Little came to ] Iorton High School in the fall of 1921 as director of physical education and assistant coach to Grant Stenger. In Sep- tember 1922, Mr. Little returned to ] Iorton Hi, becoming head coach of all athletics. Almost a complete rejuvenation of all sports immediately took place. Four teams, that were never equalled by any others rL-])resenting the Red and ' hite, continu- al! v kept Morton in the running in athletic e ' ents with other high schools. From a group of al)out hfty green pigskin chasers that turned out for his first call. Coach Little rounded out the Eastern Indiana Champions of Football for the 1 ' ' 22 season. This great feat was followed bv one no less great, that of a Red and White basketball five completing its sched- ule (if net games without a defeat. Through the efforts of Coach Little, more interest was aroused in track and baseball than in anv previous vear. Before that time Morton was seldom represented on the diamond except 1) - an occasional mediocre nine, but the team of 1 ' ' 23 would have gi en any nine in the state a good fight for the championship. Returning to Morton the first of this school year. Coach Little immediately started the ball rolling and prepared to repeat his rounding out of the best teams Morton e er had. He accom])lishe(l two extra features during the foot- Ijall season of 1923, that of having twenty-five men report for the final practice, and that of defeating Sheridan High School. A still finer basketball five, dia- mond nine, and track squad were developed. Coach Little ' s great success may be attriliuted to manv sources. He is a good all-round athlete, being able to swing a mean racket, pitch a swift out- curve, make twelve baskets in a single game, punt at least several yards, make a hole in one, and stay untler water for several seconds. He is a man believing in the school activities, of three of which he is sponsor: the S. 11. 1!. C the has Ijeconie one of the most popular members of the faculty. This is not only due to the great athletic teams he has develoiied, but also to tlie interest shown in the school activities of three of which he is sponsor: the S. B. B. C, the Woodwind, and the ■ Club, He is an enthusiastic memljer of the Morton . Synipli(in - ( )rchestra. These great acc(im|iliNhnients l)y Mr. Little ha e won for him a large numlier of ;idniirers. not iinl from the high school, but from the entire city of Richmond. His word is rule, and his rule is golden. i If KMiiiiiiiiiniiiJiim Page forty-six rrmrcni -S Jffontball Ufaumf s THE comeback of this year ' s football team was nothing short of miracu- lous, is the way Princi])al E. C. Cline looks upon the great comeback of the 1923 Morton football eleven. Losing the first four games of the season to teams of mediocre standing, and then reversing the tables and defeating four of the strongest teams of the state, including Decatur, Gar- field, and Sheridan, showed never ending fighting spirit in the Red Devil squad, the faith Coach Little had in his men with whom he worked faith- fully everv night, and the hacking gi en the gridiron machine by Morton boosters. Coach Little had se enty-fi e eager, ambitious men to answer his first call for workouts on the Test field. From this group there were five men who had had any ])revious football experience or training. They were : Soupy Mathews, Whitey Kessler, Goldie Muey, Mora I ' arker, and W ' eeb I ' wbank. x ' roun(l these five men as a nucleus. Coach Little laid plans for his 1923 gridiron machine. C)ne could see with but one glance at those seventy-five men that reported for the first practice, that there was much promising material at hand. The two main features accomplished by this crew of Morton Red Devils that stand out above other achievements are the defeat of the strong- Sheridan upstate eleven, and the reporting of twenty-two men for scrim- mage at the last practice of the year. This special feature had never be- Page forty -seven XEOTZl fore been accomplislied during the history of football in Morton High School. With five men remaining from the ' 11 squad. Coach Little immediately made himself busy h locating six good finds that could capably fill the shoes left ' acant. Probably the greatest find of the season was that of John Rizio, The Gladiator from Rome. This was Jawn ' s first year on the gridiron, during which time he gained a wide reputation as a fight- ing fool. John Pinnick, at fullback, Homer Weimer, D. Davenport, and B. Murray playing on the wing positions, and Reeg, Reynard, and Brown holding down the line, were the best bets of the vear. Reeg, although heavy, carried the pigskin at lightning speed, breaking through the op- porients for many a large gain. Kessler with his abundance of speed, endurance, and swiftness was high point man of the season. W ' hitey continued to hold the spectators in amazement and to Ijaffle his opponents, with his spectacular dashes, runs, tackles, and dives. Pinnick threw himself into the limelight of the football world when he galloped over the Sheridan line for two six point counters, carrying away the honor of being the first pigskin chaser to cross the powerful Sheridan line. iiiiiMiirMii iiiiiiiiiiimT Page forty-eight ' j-n.u i .

His hitting was hard, true, and consistent, as he called his entire body into action. With a little more practice, Brown should prove to be a valuable pigskin pimter in next year ' s lineup.

He is returning for more bait next year. Homer Weimer — Weight 152. Record : One year at end, Weimer is another one year man on the Morton gridiron eleven ; however, he handled the old pigskin as though he were a veteran at the game. Homer was great on grabbing and inter- cepting forward passes, good at interfer- ence, and got down under punts in great style, MoR.- P-JiRKER Weight 165. Record : Two years on team as tackle and guard. One of the hardest workers on the Red Devil eleven was Mora. He has the strength of a young Hercules, which was put to no small use. One more year of playing should make Parker into a state man. . rthur Reeg — Weight 170. Record : One year as guard and fullback. Reeg is one of the valuable men remaining for the Red Devil eleven for 1924. Reeg was a stub- born fighter, holding the line during the Sheridan fray like a veteran of many grid- iron struggles. There was nothing slow about big boy when it came to playing fullback. One hit by this gentleman, and he had a clear road for the remainder of the game, John Rizio — Weight 155. Record : Cen- ter. Caesar Johnny Rizio, the Roman glad- iator, was ever present, both at snapping back the pigskin and piling up opponents when on defense. The referee, upon clear- ing away the pile-up would always find this Johnny on the bottom with his arms about his opponent ' s legs. Sorry, but he will not be with us in 1924. LiNDO Reyn.ard — Weight 187, Record : One year on the squad at guard. Lindo was the hippo of the Morton Red Devils. He utilized his size and weight to every advantage possible, stopping everything coming his way. Hippo always meant business. He will not be with Father Mor- ton ne.xt season. Philip Kessler— ' eight 147. Record: Two years at regular halfback position. Whitey, as he is popularly called, was high point man of the season, making seven touchdowns. This toe-head player delighted in thrilling the spectators with his open field running and touchdowns with several op- ponents hanging on his person. This Red Devil has plaved his last high school football. John Pinnick — Weight 155. Record: Fullback for one year. Red gained the majorit}- of his fame in one game — that, the most important of the 1923 schedule. Sheri- dan came to Richmond with a clean slate ; no eleven had been able to cross their goal line for si.x points. However, Red showed the Morton rooters that it was never im- possible to do that which had never been done, not only once, but twice. R.AY Matthews — Weight 155. Record: Two years on team as tackle. Soupy was one of the most consistent players Coach Little had. He stopped many a play before it was half under way. If there was a hole to fill, Soupy could be depended upon to stop it up. He is lost to the 1924 squad through graduation. Di ' DLEY D.WENPORT — Weight 150. Record : End for one year. Dud, as he is better known, used his Irish to a good advantage throughout the entire season. Let the bat- tle get warm, and this red-head was in the midst of everything, from receiving for- ward passes to breaking up end runs. Dud was there on nipping down the passes in the Decatur game. Sorry, but his last year on the eleven, Scott Porter — Weight 143. Record : One year in the backfield at right half. Scotty worked hard to land a berth in Little ' s gridiron machine. He was a regular peach for speed, continuous pounding, hammer- ing, and plugging until he had successfully carried the pigskin oval over the enemy ' s tape. Porter did some exceptionally good punting in the Newcastle game. One more year for this kid. Murl. nd Muey — Weight 160. Record: Two years on the team as tackle. Goldie was one of Coach Little ' s mentors left from the year before. It was this experience that helped Muey land a berth on the Mor- ton pigskin chasers. Few and thin were those that passed this tackle. He was like a streak of lightning when it came to downing the oval carrier. r M I I m I M 1 1 1 1 1 1 M 1 1 1 1 Page fifty-one ilTnntbaU Jmpnrtant CSamra MUNCIE AT MUNCIE After having, lost their first game of the 1923 schedule to Wilkinson, the Morton Red Devils traveled to the Magic City where they went down to defeat 28 to 0. at the hands of the strong Central Hi eleven of that city. Although it was onh ' the sec- ond year of football for the Bearcats, it was a battle of experience versus inex- perience, as Muncie had practically the same eleven as that which lost to Mor- ton in ' 22. Muncie relied upon forward passes and end runs for the majority of her gains. It was this style of play that baffled the Morton crew. HAMILTON AT HAMILTON Morton jnurne_M ' d into the Buckeye state where they were administered their fourth straight defeat of the season by the Big Blue eleven of Hamilton. It was a sur- prise that the Red Devils held the Big Blue to such a remarkably low score. The Red and White won one victory in this gridiron fray, which was that of being the first team to score on the Hamilton crew. Morton ' s only score came during the last period wdien one of the Big Blue backs was downed behind his goal for a touch- back. Morton was outclassed in lioth weight and exixrience. The final score was 21 to 2. GARFIELD AT TERRE HAUTE Coach Little and his Red Devils traveled in a special car across the state to Terre Haute, where the Red and White annexed Garfield Hi by a score of 7 to 0. Little was known of the strength of the Garfield eleven, but the Red and hite entered into the scrap with a determination to add the game to its list of victories. The game was featured by the spectacular open field running of Kessler. It was through an off-tackle play that Kessler dashed for 40 yards and made the only touchdown of the game. Ewbanks kicked goal. SHERIDAN AT RICHMOND For two consecutive years Sheridan Hi came and went, but always victorious. The third time they came, they returned, however, non-victorious. The upstate eleven came to Richmond e-xpectin,g easily to make it three straight from Iorton. However, after man}- fruitless attempts to penetrate the stone wall of the Red Devils, they decided it to be no easy matter. Pin- nick led the attack of Little ' s gridiron machine, scoring a touchdown on the first play after the opening kickof?. Not only does the honor of scoring twice on the Sheridan eleven belong to Red, but also that of being the first man to cross the up- state .goal line. The final score stood 16 to 6 with Morton on the long end. Thus was the great climax to one of the most successful football seasons of the Red and Vhite. § ' rh ulp Morton Morton Morton 7 Morton 2 Morton 21 Morton 35 Morton 7 M.irton 16 Morton 88 Wilkinson 9 Muncie 28 Portland 13 Hamilton 21 Newcastle 7 Decatur (.iarfield Sheridan 6 Opponents 84 Page lifty-two i if. lask thaU iSpHump nf i ' paHnn P NE ER before has a basket quintet representing Morton liad such a hard and difticuU basketball schedule as that of 1923-1924. Closing this sched- ule with a record of sixteen wins and four defeats over the strongest teams of the state, of which six were high bidders for the state title, is a record that will hang for many years. Not only was the schedule of games successful, but the sportsmanship was the best ever displayed. Never before had a member of a Morton basket squad received the highest state honor for sportsmanship — the Gimbel Medal. Hats off to W ' hitey Kessler ! Although Morton ' s first op- ponents were of a mediocre standing, state critics of the great Hoosier Sport were not so slow recognizing the Morton Red Devils as they were the year before. Coach Little had three men remaining from last year ' s crew around whom to build a fast state championship quintet. Those having played on the Red Devil quintet before were Kessler, Muey, and Price. With Johanning, Ewbank, Porter, and Rizio from the second team. Coach Little had ample material with which to work. Johanning developed into one of the best guards Morton has had for many seasons. Rizio became as famous on the hardwood as he was on the gridiron, being a good all round player. He was capable of play- ing any position on the team. Muey was Morton ' s best bet at the forward position. He was high point man of the year. Kessler, the white-haired flash of Page fifty-three s ISpsumr nf pasmi, rnntinur lightning that brought more honor and glory to Morton than the state title, through liis winning of the Gimbel Medal, was one of the quickest guards in the state. After defeating four weaker quintets by large margins. Morton met her first real contender and became the victim of Frankfort 45-43. However, the following week the Red Devils took a brace for the better and captured the scalp of the Rose City five 47-22 and Technical 35-24. The worst defeat of the season was that handed to Morton by the strong Bearcats five of Muncie. the final score being 38-18. Condition was the cause of the humble fall of the Morton athletes at this time. Both Shelbyville and Evansville met the Red Devils before they had completely recovered from their trouble, thus both foreign fives took a four margin win from the Red and White quintet. After these de- feats Coach Little ' s cohorts took a change for the better, and eight strong teams fell before Morton. Connersville, Elwood, Rush ille, and Columbus were among the strongest let down. The great clima.x of tlie Morton Schedule came with the 29-27 victory over the strong Stone City five. The quintet from Bedford came to Richmond ex- pecting an easy victory over Morton. Before manv minutes of the game were past, the Stone City crew had a different opinion of the Red Devils. The sea- son closed with a hard fought 16-14 victorv over Steele of Davton.

Coach Little ' s cohorts held this fast going aggregation, that were the runncrs.up in the state meet, to a two point margin win — tS-43. This fracas was said to be the fastest game played on the Frankfort floor. MORTON— CENTRAL (Muncie) Tlic Red Devils ' second defeat of the season came when they fell victim to a 38-18 onslaught of the Muncie Bearcats. The Morton quintet proved to be no match for the Bearcats after fifteen minutes of plaj- because of the lack of physical con- dition. MORTON— COLUMBUS Having laid Elwood on the shelf the night before, the Red Devils easily cap- tured the scalp of the Columbus Bulldogs by the tune of 32-21. The quintet that took over the Columbus aggregation was a far different crew from the one that lost to Muncie during the Christmas vacation. MORTON— BEDFORD The great climax of the scheduled sea- son came when Coach Little ' s fighting demons defeated the highly rated Stone City five from Bedford before 3,500 shout- ing basketball fans in the Trueblood In- door Field of Earlham College. The en- tire encounter was like one swift streak of lightning. No less than si-x times the score stood tied. With two minutes to go, the score stood knotted 11 all, at which time Rizio dropped through the leather for the winning counter. anuruampnta Morton had easy sailing throughout the district meet held in the Coliseum. Little ' s Red Devils had little trouble disposing, of Camliridge Citv, Centerville, Hagerstown, and Bos- ton respectivelj-. Hagerstown offered the liest liattle of the four quintets. At the regional held in the Trueblood Field, Southpnrt, winner of the Indianapolis sectional, fell easy victim to the fast Morton five. In the state meet at Indianapolis, South Side of Fort Wayne was the first to fall before the Red Devils from Morton. However, in Morton ' s second game she met her Waterloo in stacking up before the strong Frankfort quintet. After leading the Frank- fort a,g,gregation during tlie majority of the time. Coach Little ' s crew failed in the last few minutes of play and fell before a strong finish of the Frankfort five. rhpiiulp Dec. 7. Morton, 58; L ' nion City, 11. Dec. 14.

New Castle and Stivers of Day- ton fell with the same ease as did Portland. The sectional meet which had formerly been held at Connersville was trans- ferred to Richmond.

At the beginning of the year, the efficiency tests were given to all the girls taking gym. The tests were made up of ten events, and the person getting a perfect score received ten points. Some of the tests which were taken were : pole climb- ing, Indian club race, running and catching, basketball goal throw, basketball distance throw, standing broad jump, balancing, roll, and many others similar to these. The girls who received highest scores were ' era Lamniott, Thelma Feltis, and ilarguerite Ralston. .Vll the girls took an interest in these efficiency tests, because at the end of the term they were given again so that the girls could see how much they had improved. . great deal of enthusiasm was shown in the class games. Two captains were elected by the girls in each class, and the captains chose the girls on their teams. The games which were played in the classes were captain basketball, hand ball, kick it, x ' oUey ball, and baseball. Through- out the whole year good sportsmanship was shown in the various contests. This year ' s basketball season was cer- tainly a success. There was great competi- tinn among all the teams. The eight captains were elected by the iilayers. They were ' era Lammott, Kathryn A ' eber, Estella Thomas. Doroth}- Orr, Iietty Kenney, Catherine Ful- ghum. Lola Haas, and Maxine Coblentz. Each team played twelve games.

We still have both. The record stays with us because nobody wants it, but the reputa- tion has cost us an immense amount of hard work to maintain. ' hen the meeting- broke up at Nash ille, the supervisors went home with a determination to beat us. Many of them thought they had passed our standard this year until the Cincinnati meeting, when we again emerged with the reputation of being in a class by our- selves. We did more than maintain our reputation. We gave away our trade secrets and showed the or- chestra leaders how we were able to keep the lead. Xe.xt year our sectional rehearsals will be copied by hundreds of school orchestras throughout the country. Reading the Aleistersinger Prelude at sight will be the aim of every high school orchestra with any ambi- tion. Playing without a conductor will be practiced by orchestras in California and New York. Was the Cincinnati trip worth while? Isn ' t the joy of giving, greater than the joy of receiving? We have had our share of praise and glory for this year, and we have not al- lowed it to turn our heads. After all, no amount of honor and praise could mean half so much to us as this glorious year of association with the greatest masters of music. What a great friend we have in Tschaikowsky ; how you will long for him when you are away at college next year! Wasn ' t it joy to work for him even though he was a severe master? Isn ' t it remarkable that, after all the days, weeks, and months of strenuous work on the Symphony Pathetique, we never grew tired of it, and we were always eager to keep on playing after the bell rang ? The orchestra has been my greatest dream and almost the breath of my life. When everything else went wrong, I always looked forward to orchestra re- hearsal as the hour of happiness each day, sufficient to overbalance all the un- pleasant things that might happen during the other twenty-three hours. Your en- thusiasm carried me along when I was tired; your ambition stirred me to greater efforts ; your association kept me young. You helped me to correct my faults as I helped you to correct yours. While I was teaching you to interpret the master- pieces, you vi ' ere teaching me to run an orchestra efficiently. The combination is responsible for our success. I only hope my sentiments are shared in a measure by every member of the orchestra, and that what little friction occurred during the year will be charged to the good of the cause. You ha •e made this the orchestra ' s greatest year, and you may have the satisfaction of knowing that your work is being imitated in every state in the union, and that, while you were working primarily for the Mor- ton Symphony Orchestra, with your own improvement a secondary consideration, you were helping thousands of high school orchestras throughout the United States by setting and maintaining the highest standards of accomplishment and organiza- tion at a time when the school orchestras of the nation looked to you for guidance.

Although thev lose many of their finest musicians each June, at graduation, it takes only a short time under the capable direction of Mr. Maddy to convert the new- comers into accomjilislied performers. ■ ■ The (Jrchestra meets every day for an hour of strenuous work, to mas- ter the difficult programs which are presented during the year. There were fi e concerts given this year. At the fourth one the orchestra was exceed- ingly fortunate in having as their soloist Pablo Casals, an accomplished cellist. A series of free concerts was also given to the public, and the orchestra played an important part in the lay Festival. ' ith money earned at the concerts, two cellos and an English horn were purchased. The orchestra has the use of a library of music valued at $6,000. Their repertoire includes standard classics, such as the Spanish Caprice, by Renisky Korsakow ; (Jberon (. )verture ' by ' eber ; and Herod Overture by Hadley. By far the greatest achievement of this year has been their playing of the Symphony Pathetique by Tschaikowsky, which is considered difficult even by the largest symphony orchestras. Two ' ears ago at the National Music Supervisors ' Convention at Nash- ville, Tenn., the Morton Symphony Orchestra was proclaimed the best high school orchestra in America. This year they went to the ] Iusic Supervisors ' National Conference at Cincinnati, to prove their sight reading ability and also to demonstrate the daily regime and method of weekh ' tryout of the members. Thev also gave a very successful concert before the Co nservatory of Music. Several men came to Richmond ni the s])ring from Rochester, N. Y., where Mr. Maddy was formerly Music Supervisor, to study the methods of organization of our orchestras from the grades to the high school. Air. George Eastman of Rochester has just gi ' en to the public schools there $45,- 000 for the purchase of instruments and they hope to install the same method in their schools that Mr. Maddy has developed here. The Orchestra members managed to work in a little pleeasure between their practice and their engagements. Early in the fall they had a marvelous hay ride with apple cider and all the good things that go with it. At the end of the year they gave a banquet at which the members were presented with orchestra pins for their year ' s service.

Then in the school year 1920-21. a student manager was chosen to o ' ersee the I)usiness affairs of all school activities. Since the I. H. S. A. A. did not recognize a stndent manager, he was considered an assistant to the faculty manager, although in realitv, he shouldered a great deal of the responsi- bility. He had an assistant, a junior, who. if he proved himself capable, would naturally become his successor. Wilfred Jessup was our first student manager with Wendell Stanley assistant, who in turn became student manager the next year. Stanley ' s helper. Theodore Henderson assumed charge in 1923 with Clayton Jackson as assistant. Because of the increasing responsibilities devolving upon the manager, Mr. Cline this year devised and ])erfected a new management svstem with a staff of five student managers and four faculty managers. With the faculty manager ' s approval, each student manager was empowered to make anv necessarv arrange- ments. Clayton Jackson and Mr. Sellers managed fall athletics; Walter B. ITilghum. Jr.. and Air. Clevenger were in charge of basketball ; and Ernest Russell with Mr. an I-ltten directed spring athletics. George Cummins and Air. Donaker were in control of school shows, orchestra concerts, and all other school activities e.xcept athletics. Rhea Wellbaum was the girl representative on the staff, mak- ing herself useful wherever needed. 1 his new system is highly efficient: it burdens no one too heavilv. and pro- vides a very adei|uate training for each of the student managers.

By Wednesday my desk is loaded with copy which must be ex- amined and passed. Wednesdaj- the finishing touches are put on all work which must be in to make possible the Friday edition of the paper. If the times are late and come seemingly all at once, I will call to my desk a brace ■ ir so of willing workers who will .gladly help edit the copy.

The cooling efifects of one nillion Persian cats ' noses alone pro- duces two thousand tons of ice per day, while the electricity produced by the ice rubbing the cats ' backs on its way to the shipping platform amounts to one million cat power or ten million horse- power.

Even in the washrooms conductors are fas- tened on the combs so that none of the electrical energy is wasted. Feeding the cats is simple, as the three million men in Teheran apph- cream to their faces and let the cats ck it off. The result is an almost free shave for them, and the cats get their three square meals a day. each man in Teheran lieing shaved once a day.

The total loss of the fire was from $150,000 to $200,000. Nearly fifty workmen were busy cleaning the new Ijuilding all the next week, Friday morning tlie students returned to clear their lockers so that they might be cleaned. School was resumed in Morton the following Mon- day, just one week after the fire. The students and teachers returned with a good spirit and co-operative at- titude, and, as far as it was possible, Morton High School went on as usual. The twelve raeml)ers of the faculty who taught in the destroyed liuilding lost many valuable articles (including their grade books. ) The destruction of this liistoric edi- fice brought many a pang of re.eret, not only to the present students, but to many of the Morton High School Alumni who still hold some lingeiing.
