As part of our business as usual pro- gram, the senior class has again published the annual yearbook, THE PIERIAN, a r eeor d of the school year 1941-42 in Rich- mond High School of Richmond, Indiana. For your enjoyment and remembrance ure, the editorial stag, present The IQ42 I The Arts Have a New Home in Richmond ak yn 1 ' h ,, ,.... Ilfl ll-as r THIS year saw the completion of McGuire Hall, most recent addition to Richmond Senior High School. The arts building, as the new edifice is sometimes called, is the school center of art, drama, and music. Here meet the music classes, including such well-known organizations as band, orchestra, and choir. Here also are held the art classes. Permanent galleries located in McGuire Hall house the collections of the Richmond Art Association, representing among others, the works of many local artists. The new art galleries make it possible to display art exhibitions not otherwise available, and are frequently opened to public inspection. McGuire Hall includes an auditorium seating approximately Hve hundred persons, and is admirably equipped for the presentation of dramatic productions. The acoustics are perfect, and the auditorium is also splendid for the giving of concerts and other musical entertainments. There are also accommodations for the showing of motion pictures. The new building typilies skill in architectural design and decoration. Delicate and well modulated colors were employed in the painting of the walls and ceilings, while the architectural arrangement of the building is both convenient and decorative. Two large urns adorn the front of McGuire Hall, and several smaller can be found in the building proper. The fountain, a famous work sculptured by Ianet Scudder, graces the main foyer. McGuire Hall occupies a definite and important position in the life of Richmond High School, and in the lives of the students and the people of Richmond. The build- ing was constructed mainly through the gift of Mr. Charles McGuire, in memory of his mother, Mrs. Esther McGuire. Q Q 1,1111 'nim' MODEL HOUSE By Billy Dailey STILL LIFE By Gordon Kelly Pag rt in High School RT plays an important part in our lives. It is used everywhere and in every- thing. In our school, crafts, commercial art, and fine art are offered, cover- ing every phase of the subject. Pottery, weaving, leather tooling, tie-dying, and carving give opportunity for individual creative work to the craft students. Com- mercial art includes lettering, costume illustration, cartoons, and posters. Fine art offers oil painting, watercolor, pastel, charcoal, and pencil sketching. McGuire building is the result of one manis interest in art, given as a me- morial to his mother, Esther McGuire. The art department moved into it from Morton Hall on December seventh. It seems like a dream to be honored with such a place. The four galleries offer a greater and wider range of education. There is the permanent collection of pictures in two of the galleries, and the other two are used for current exhibitions. After the exhibit of non-objectives by Will Stevens, some of the work done in the art classes showed the decorative influence of the artist's beautiful color and design. A one man show consisting of thirty oils, watercolors, and pastels, by Gor- don Kelly, a senior student, was exhibited by the Art Association. The Art department offers three clubs-Art Appreciation, Sketch and Hobby, and A Club. The annual convention of the State Federation of Iunior Art Clubs, of which the A Club is a member, was held April eighteenth, in Mc-' Guire Hall. An exhibit was shown during this meeting, and seven of the thir- teen medals awarded were received by R. H. S. students. Few schools have an art program such as is possible here, with painting and art objects always on display and opportunity for pupils to know the director, Mrs. M. F. Iohnston, and have the advantage of her long years of experience in furthering art education in our school. age eleven MURAL by Marcia Iohnson The Music Department FOR real DEMOCRACY,', look to the Music, be it BAND-CI-IOIR-ORCHES TRA, for here the many individual voices and personalities learn to blend and har- monize, and to speak as ONE. With an enrollment of over 400, the Music Department reaches a large percent- age of students in active participation, and then strives to serve our school in many various ways. The Band, well uniformed, has served school and community with excellent music and clever maneuvers on the football Held, basketball Hoor, in city parades and concerts. It rates as one of the outstanding bands in the Middle West. The Choir this year reached its peak of performance in the presentation of the Gilbert and Sullivan Comic Opera, UH. M. S. Pinaforef' which proved a real success. The opera, a Christmas as- sembly, and numerous program calls in the community have kept the Choir busy indeed. The Orchestra, too, has had its series of concerts and programs, and has so steadily ad- vanced in its style and technique that now we look with pride at this group of musi- cians. Then, the ALL GIRL ORCHESTRA and BOYS' GLEE CLUB, though meeting only forty-five minutes each week, have a place in the activities of the department. As an innovation, five students have added interest to their musical experiences in the study of the new electric organ purchased by our School Board this year. The RED DEVIL SWINGSTERS, which met twice a week, were also called upon to give several outside programs. So, from pipe-organ to piccolo May we serve our school wherever we go! THE MUSIC DEPARTMENT.

A skate has already put money in their coffers for later in their career. The Freshmen have been very active in sports this year, doing well in all Helds of endeavor. Leaders are always welcome in R. H. S., and this class promises to give its share of good ones. - Pg th tyth Sophomore Class ACTIVE participation in all phases of school endeavor has made this an outstanding class. They have sponsored various events, and have gen- erally shown themselves to be good leaders as well as good followers. A great many of thisiclass have been very prominent in the fields of both music and art, with much special recognition being earned by the members of the class. Besides being busy in their intellectual endeavors, these pupils have made a good start on some very promising athletic careers, being active in most of the major sports in school. P ge thirty-f llfffm' 'J 11B 10A P h fi L. Junior Class s 1. INCE this class will assume the leadership of the school next year, they have been preparing for their future task by backing their school in every Way possible. The class of ,43 is well represented in sports of all kinds, and Iuniors can be found in almost every school activity. S y,They were the First class to organize in the tenth grade, and consequently, their oflicers and committees were more experienced. They have selected their jewelry and their class banner for the time when they will be seniors. Some of the members served as members of the Iunior4Senior Prom Commit- tee, so that they can continue the dance next year. The Iunior Class is responsible for helping in many of the Senior activities. For instance, they must act as ushers for Class Night, Baccalaureate, and Com- mencement, and they decorate for Baccalaureate and Commencement. It is also their duty to prepare the Senior Recognition Assembly. With such a good start, the Iuniors will try to keep up the good work that the Senior Class this year has done. Here's hoping.

H. S. have a very hne chance to obtain experience in this line. There are opportunities to work on the school newspaper, The Register, and a chance to belong to the literary club, the Quill, not to mention being eligible to work on THE PIERIAN staff. A pupil may be connected with The Register for two semesters. His Hrst semester he takes Iournalism I. This course prepares him for Iournalism II, which is a position on the staff of The Register. Although he is on the stall proper only one semester, he gains much valuable writing experience while in Iournalism I because he writes a great deal for the paper. All phases of newspaper work are introduced to him, and he gets a very good idea as to whether he is cut out for newspaper work or not. The Quill is open to anyone, but he first must submit some of his writ! ing to a committee of The Quill and have them see in it talent enough to merit his admittance into the club. The Quill publishes a pamphlet once a year with the best material written by the members in it. THE PIERIAN has much writing to be done for it, and many get the chance to furnish some of it. The editor of THE PIERIAN is chosen by the class ofhcers and sponsors, and he with the help of Miss Finfrock appoints the rest of the staff.

H. S. RICHMOND HIGH SCHOOL is lucky in that it has a well balanced club schedule. In this program of club activity, it is possible, and even de- sirable for every pupil to maintain an active interest in things of his choice from physical education to the study of world problems. The affairs of our country and of the world, as related to social studies in general, are well taken care of in the two forum clubs under the guidance of Mr. Bechtold and Mr. Peacock. These clubs serve a double purpose in that the pupils prepare the programs. The physical side of sports is taught in Mr. Tiernan's Tumbling Club, while the spectator angle is taken up by the various Sports Study groups. Fencing, which is fast becoming known in R. H. S., has two clubs de- voted to its study and practice. These clubs even supply the school with a fencing team. Travel clubs, correspondence clubs, dramatic clubs, and other study groups complete the roster of R. H. S. clubs. We of the senior class should like to take this opportunity to thank the teachers for devoting some of their time to help us secure the recreation that high school students need to balance our lives at high school. ye Jiffy-:ive CC H Sports Events Highlight-Extra-curricular Activities Clean sportsmanship ana' hard playing characterized R. H. S. athletes. Page ,fifty-se ren Night Football Comes to R. H. S. NIGHT football came to Richmond in 1941 with the installation of lights on the R. H. S. football Held. The result was highly gratifying. For the first time in the history of the grid sport in Richmond, the team was well backed at home. Not only the pupils, the band, and Block R, but also many of the townspeople turned out for the games. As many as 2,000 spectators were on hand when games were played in good Weather. Night football will go down as the greatest single advancement in sports at R. H. S. during the 1941-42 school year. l 4. nh .. an Page jif 1311 The Season's Record s THE Richmond Red Devils won two, lost five, and tied one of their games during the 1941 football season. The schedule was by no-means easy, and in some cases exceeding- ly hard. In addition to that, they won a moral victory. Only three lettermen returned from last season. With that small amount of material from which to build, Coach Dick Tier- nan put together a team which was sometimes outmanned and sometimes outplayed, but which was never outfought. ' The statistics illustrate the last point. The Devils' total score for the season was 84 points. Their opponents had a total score of 109. That is not bad when one considers the Richmond team won only two of its eight games. In the winning of those two games, bang-up play was the keynote of the Devils' attack. When he saw a hole in the line, Don Dickinson ran 90 yards from punt formation for a touchdown against New Castle. That touchdown paved the way for the team to go on and win, 13-6. I In a game at Portland, smashing through the line and sweeping around the ends, Rich- mond ran roughshod over the Portland Panthers. The final score was 41-7, and constituted the worst beating a Red Devil team ever administered to a gridiron foe. Other good performances, besides the victories, were turned in by the Devils during the season. The team played well against Frankfort, staying within easy scoring range until the last three minutes of play. Lack of experience on the part of Richmond team was the telling factor in this game. The final score was 14-6, Frankfort. ' McGufIey of Oxford, perenially tough, had a hard time subduing the locals, but finally won out, 7-o. Richmond, fresh from its victory over New Castle the week before, held the upper hand through most of the Hrst half. It was not until the third quarter that McGuffey broke the scoring ice with a touchdown, which by itself would have been suHicient to win the game. , Knightstown came to Richmond the night of October I7 with a record of six straight wins and the reputation of being one of the best teams in the state. This was the homecom- ing game, and the Devils were set to sully Knightstown's record-if possible. They didn't win, but they accomplished the next best thing. The game ended in a 6-6 deadlock. It de- served to be the Homecoming game, for it was the most exciting of all our home tussles. The ,Devils made several successful goal-line stands late in the game, and were always able to punt out of danger after taking over the ball. , The North Central Conference games out of town caused us most of our headaches. Marion defeated us, 25-I2, and the beating we took was worse than the score indicates. We were unable to get going against Anderson and wound up on the small end of 25-6 score against the Indians. We played the final game of the season at Indianapolis against Tech on the afternoon of October 31. The field was covered with mud so thick that the players' numbers were unidentifiable five minutes after they entered the game. Tech found the go- ing easier than we did, and led at half-time IQ-O. We held our own in the last half, and the game ended with no further scoring. Besides having only three lettermen from last year, one of those players, Mack Peyton, was on the sidelines with an injured ankle most of the season. Iulian McGill, George Mur- phy, Don Borton, and George Bell were others who were unable to play because of sickness or injuries at times in the course of the season.

Basketball TWENTY won, five lost. That, in cold, hard figures, is the story of the Richmond High School basketball team for the 1941-1942 season. Those figures, however, are only the merest beginning. The complete story is a fabulous one, concerning a bunch of hard-fight- ing high school boys who made themselves, and consequently their team, fabulous. The concensus of opinion at the start of the season was that the boys making up this year's team, had possibilities, but lack of experience kept them from receiving much serious thought as being one of the best teams in the state. Before the season ended, an Associat- ed Press sports writer picked them to win the state tournament, and in a poll of A. P. writ- ers, they were picked as the team second most likely to carry off the state championship. It was as a result of heads-up play and steady improvement throughout the season that the Devils reached their high position in the state. When they took the floor for their first game of the season, against Liberty, Mack Pey- ton was the only regular from last season on the varsity squad. Iohn Black and Harry Davidson, who had seen a little action last year, and Iay Vogelsong and Bill Keesling, made up the remainder of the starting Hve at the beginning ofthe season. The team had lots of lessons to learn, and after winning their first three games, they received, in their first North Central Conference engagement, their bitterest lesson at Mar- ion. Leading 32-27, with two minutes remaining in the play, the Devils tried to stall. Mar- ion, with an experienced team which was determined to win, broke up the stall so effectively that they took the lead in those last two minutes, and won the game, 35-32. They avenged their defeat at Marion by walloping the Giants, 35-25, in a game at Civic Hall later in the season. The Week after losing to Marion, they traveled to Lafayette and took a 44-34 shellack- ing from the Bronchos. Then followed a 36-19 win over Central of Muncie on the home court, a 30-26 loss to New Castle, a 39-34 triumph over Tech of Indianapolis, and a 22-20 beating at the hands of Anderson's Indians. Sandwiched among those games was a 55-43 victory over Connersville and a 34-25 win over Burris of Muncie. The beating given Burris was one of the high-points of the season, ty and marked the first victory for a Richmond basketball team over a Burris quintet. That win was the 22nd straight for the Devils at home. As a result, they came into state-wide prominence for the first time. What looked like their first mouthful of glory turned out to be only a sip, though. The loss to Anderson less than two weeks later put them back among the so-so teams. Besides that, it snapped their home winning streak and gave them a record of two won and four lost in the Conference. Then the team began clicking. Ralph Holmes had already been added to the starting lineup, and George Sauer and Bob Borton had been performing their chores handily when called upon to fill in for the regulars. After the Anderson game, the players worked as smoothly as cogs in a machine, and the possibilities which had been recognized all season, suddenly became realities. The Devils fin- ished their Conference season with six straight victories for a record of eight won and four lost, which was good enough for a second place tie with Frankfort. Outside the Conference, our boys were undefeated. They wound up their non-confer- ence season with victories over New Albany, Riley of South Bend, and Connersville. HAR SQUAD PLAYERS MACK P1aYToN: Finished third year of all-round spectacular play by being named to all North Central Conference team and to a tentative all- state squad.

Elected captain of the 1943 team. l RICHARD PEED: Known to the boys as Iunior. His height and Hnever say die spirit were important cogs in the machine. HARRY Dfxvrnsoxz Known as I-Iockf' His screwy actions made him very popular. VVith his patent left hand, he was dangerous at all times. BILL KEEsLINo: With his fiery red hair flashing, Red was the speed demon of the club. CiEORGE SAUER: Very quiet and sincere, George was one of the defensive stars on the squad. Bos BoaToN: Although only a substitute, Bob proved valuable in many games. A hard work- er at all times. Page szxty tuo DELBERT HARVEY: Debbo with his deadly eye, shooting long shots, was considered very dangerous, as he proved in several games. IAY VooELsoNo: Known to the boys as Hamburger.

When the tournaments started, the Devils were regarded as one of the best teams in the state. They breezed through the sectional and headed for the Regional at Muncie, where a much-improved Burris team lay in wait to gain vengeance for the drubbing they received at Richmond. Burris was successful in its try for vengeance. The Owls won the game, 37-28. Rich- mond went down to defeat in the best possible manner-fighting. That ended the Red Devils, season, but no one can dispute the fact that the Devils would give a good showing against any team in Indiana. The team that beat them went on to become runners-up to the state champions. They won 16 games while losing only four in regular season play, and they had won four in the tournaments before bowing out to Burris. The 1941-1942 season was one of the most successful any Richmond basketball team has had. In years to come, Mack Peyton will be remembered, along with Kessler, La Mar, Ly- boult, Bob Davidson, Iohn and Byrl Logan, and the others who comprise Richmond's ail- time greats on the basketball court. ty-th ree Track WITH several men back from last year's team, Coach Tiernan rounded his boys into a well balanced squad-strong in both field and track events. They began early and worked hard, as is very obvious from their record. They won the majority of their meets. Several underclassmen are showing up well, giving R. H. S. hopes for the future., Several of the members of this year are being lost by graduation. Several of these boys and their events are: E. Brown, 100-yard dash, McGill, 440-yard dash, Black, pole vault, Kanost, mile run, Benton, 880, Dailey, broad jump, Kalugyer, shot put, Schively, mile, Hale, hurdles, Marshall, half mile relay.

That was the score of the opening game of the R. H. S. baseball season. The second game, however, will be longer remembered. That game, against Winchester, was the first ever played on the new baseball diamond. The Red Devils inaugurated it properly, shellacking Winchester, ro-3. Bleachers were erected along the third base line, making it possible for more people than ever before to see the local team in ac- tion. The Girlsl Booster Club and Red Devil Pepsters were required to attend one home game, thus giving added impetus to the team. After Hnishing victorious in their first two contests, the Devils prolonged their winning streak through the next four games. During that time, they blanked Spiceland, 3-0, ran roughshod over Boston, 15-1, trampled Knightstown, 9-I, and swamped Winchester, 7-2. Harry Davidson had rung up two pitching victories in those six games, and the four other wins were divided among four other hurlers. Then Springfield beat the Devils, 9-0. Three days later, on May 8, the Devils journeyed to Indianapolis, where they met Tech in their first North Central Conference game. There they finished on the long end of a 5-2 count, Davidson pitching a one-hitter. The following day they overwhelmed Iasper, 14-0, at the southern Indiana city. Next, the locals met Brookville in a tilt there on May 13. They wound up their season playing a game at Anderson, double-headers against Lafayette and Kokomo, and two single engagements with Central of Muncie. By winning six out of eight N. C. C. games, the Devils captured the North Central Championship for the fifth time in seven years. SCHEDULE April I5 Boston C7-25 ...,... ,Here May Iasper C14-0, ...,........

S. has its ups and downs just like any other sport, and this year it was somewhat on the down side of the ledger. With only two lettermen, Henry D. Casey and Howard Parish, back, the team was lacking in experience, and this lack showed up glaringly in the early matches of the season. The boys got settled down a little as the season went on, but they never really got going. The team usually played with the positions filled as follows: Henry D. Casey, number one position, Howard Parish, number two position, Frank Hagie, number three position, Byron Parke, number four position, and either Gilford Bokenkamp or Edwin Ratliff in number Hve position. On account of the rubber situation the team had an unusually small num- ber of matches, but they did meet with Connersville, Burris, and Tech and Kokomo were also scheduled. In their first match they were defeated 5-I by Connersville, which marked the first time in over four years that the Spartans had downed the Devil netters, and then they were dropped 6-I by Burris in their second match. Golf HE R. H. S. golf team started Where it left off last year, Winning a three-team match on April 25, in which Kokomo and Marion also participated. The Red Devils were low with a team score of 322. This match was played at home, on the Forest Hills course. A week later, the local divot-digging aggregation journeyed to Kokomo for a re- turn match against the same teams. There they Hnished third, with a team score of 349. On May 5, the Devils won a 7-5 match from Hamilton Catholic, at the Ohio city. Their next assignment, against Batesville, was won decisively, 92 points to 22. Anderson was the next port of call for the home-towners. There they opposed Kokomo and Marion in addition to the Anderson Indians. They came in with a score of 330, which put them in third place. Next on the schedule was a return match with Hamilton Catholic on May 12. The Devils overwhelmed the visitors, II-I. The important events for the remainder of the season were the Big Ten Match at Marion on May 16th, and the Tri-State Tourney at Hamilton, Ohio, on Iune 5. This year, there was no state tournament because of restriction of travel brought on by the war. The chances are that it will not be possible to hold a state golf tourna- ment until the war is over, and for that reason, the state championship which the Rich- mond team won last year, will be retained for the duration. None of the players from last year's state champions were back for this season's campaign. Coach McNaughton had to build entirely anew. He chose George Rel- ler, Dick Morgan, Ray Davis, Don Hoover, and Fred Moore to fill the shoes of the ,4I foursome. Four of the boys participated in each match, with the other being carried as a replacement, in case any of the others should be injured. SCHEDULE April 25-Kokomo, Marion, here.

Naturally every other team had a different idea about that, and the scores showed that some of them weren't far wrong either. Nevertheless the Terrors finally emerged from the fray as Champions, by winning in the finals from Bartz's Iackrabbits. Enroute to the Hnals, they barely eked out a 17-14 win over McNaughton's Monstrosities, co-favorites to take the tourney. Civic Hall was the scene of the tussles, and, whether victory came to his team, or not, everyone gave a good example of the type of sportsmanship and spirit that R. H. S. tries to instill into every student. Members of the winning team are Charles McClure, Iulian McGill, Ken- neth Mills, Bob Moore, Bob Coate, Bob Marshall, David Kanost, and Everett Medearis. Others may not have been so fortunate as to carry away honors, but every participant entered into the spirit of the affair, making it one of the finest tournaments held yet. ag i Block R AN ORGANIZATION to promote better sportsmanship the year around, Block NR' is usually in the spotlight only during the basketball season, but this year, for the first time, these girls performed for the last night football game. This block is composed of eighty girls from Girls' Booster Club and the Red Devil Pepsters, who are seated according to seniority and points. Working with the pep and precision of the Rockettes, these girls cheer the team and entertain the fans with clever stunts, songs, and yells for each game, using red and white cards, balloons, tassels, and miniature megaphones. The outstanding stunt this year was the displaying of a replica of the American flag, While they were singing God Bless America. This season the block gave an out-of-town performance at the Muncie Regionals and had the distinction of being the only organized cheering section there. They were not sponsored by any organization, but undertook this trip on their own initiative. This performance will be long remembered by all who had the opportunity of witness- ing this spectacle of red and white. These girls also sell Booster Tickets in the fall and Work for the lnfantile Paraly- sis drive. Before the sectional tourney, Block Rv gave a banquet for the entire basketball team. At the end of the school year a banquet is held for the members of the club. All this was possible only with the cooperation of the girls under the able leader- ship of Doug Hoyt, who originated many of the stunts, and by the good work of the yell leaders, and of our sponsor, Miss Iohnson.

A chum of his, Charles Wykeham, is in the same quandry, loving, as he does, Miss Spettigue. The young men at once lay their plans and ask the objects of their affections to join them at their rooms for luncheon-in order to meet Donna Lucia D'Alvadorez, who is expected to arrive from Brazil. Donna Lucia, who is Charley's aunt, sends a telegram saying that she will be de- layed in her arrival, but the girls have already accepted the invitation. The boys, not Wishing to give up a day with their sweethearts, coax a chum of theirs, Lord Fancourt Babberley, to play the role of Charleyls aunt. Hilarity reigns while Iack's father and Mr. Spettigue contest for the love of the wealthy Donna Lucia, and the two young girls reveal their hearts to her. Most unex- pectedly, however, the real aunt arrives, and seeing this odd state of affairs, decides to conceal her identity. The conclusion proves to be happy for all concerned except for Stephen Spettigue, who is the only one left without a prospective wife on his hands.
