The sixth grade camei We were under the direction of Mr. Frank Smith. We had two new classmates, Marjorie Jones from Arizona, and William Hatch from Logansport. Then disaster struck our class for the first time. The death of our new classmate, Marjorie Jones, was a great shock to us. Act III We were now ready for Junior Stardom, under the direction of Mrs. Rogers and Mr. Harvey. We had a joyous year and with the first year of our Junior Stardom almost complete, schools were consolidated. Our class was surely in- creasing now with eight new classmates, Chester Baker, Lester Baker, Frank Blount, Betty Collins, Joyce Downey, Patricia Nordyke, Iris Nice, Ronald Roth, and John Nacke. Janis Fry from Logansport was back with us after several years of absence. We were now ready for our final training when disaster struck our class for the second time, with the death of our beloved classmate, Dorothy Miller. Act IV We entered the Freshmen class.

ROY SR We are proud to have such a capable man as Ur. Royer as the principal of the Royal Center Grade School. Mr. Royer graduated from Chester High School, and in 19U2, he graduated from Manchester College -with a B.S. degree. In 19h7 he received his M.S. degree from Indiana University. After graduating from Manchester, he became teacher and coach at Woodbum High for § a year, and then he became teacher and coach at Washington Township High School for three years. Mr. Royer then came to R.C.H.S., where he taught social studies for 1 year and now he is principal and social studies teacher at the Royal Center Grade School. £L£A HNTA; y SCHOOL The State Department of Education has recently approved a change in the type of organization in the Royal Center School. Our school is now organized as an 8-ii school That is, the first eight grades are housed in one building and make up one unit of organization, and the other four grades, 9-12, form the high school unit. This type of organization permits the local corporation to receive an additional teaching unit of state support, for an elementary school principal and also makes it easier to evaluate our school in terms of state minimum requirements. From many points of view this tvoe of organization best meets our local school needs. IT) O rH tH The teaching staff of the Elementary School is composed of the principal, Mr. Dee Royer, and ten full time teachers. In addition to these art, vocal and instrumental music are taught by two special teachers. The enrollment in the Elementary building varies during the year from 310 to 320 pupils. Both the first and second grades are divided into two rooms An active Parent-Teacher organization whose membership is composed largely of parents of grade school children sponsors the school 8 hot lunch program and health services. From 32$ to 37$ pupils and teachers are served a hot plate- lunch every day. A lunch room manager and cooks are employed by the Parent- Teacher organization to carry on the project. The kitchen and dining room facilities are shared with other community organizations. The Farm Bureau holds its monthly meetings in the Elementary building. Backed by the local merchants and supervised by the Elementary School principal an effective School Safety Patrol has been functioning to guard the lives of our children in crossing the streets. A school paper staff has been organized. They publish monthly the Grade Hi Lights . A school library is being started. Students assist in the clerical work connected with the library. A sound projector is now available in the grades for full time use. A Christmas Cantata entitled Not Guilty was given by the entire student body. The boys of grades five through eight have a chance to participate in an organized athletic program including softball, basketball and track. Regular chapel programs are held during the year with the ministers of the various local churches partici- pating, and special assembly programs are scheduled at different times during the year. J5 iV SOTT I X U-, L I LI o c IO 1105 C.S. SPARKS C«ach C. S. Sparks graduated from Purdue in 192$. His first teach- ing assignment was at Royal Center High School in 1925. He taught here during his first 3 years of teaching. The second year he piloted the Royal Center Bulldogs to their first County Championship in their history- He remained 1 year following that. During the next two years he taught school and coached at Mt. Summit, near New Castle, Indiana. In 1930 he was back in Royal Center teaching, and coaching the Bulldogs. His record of toumments won is as follows: Cass County Toumments in 1927, 193$, 1937, 1938, 19Ul, 19l3, 19Wu 19U5, and 19U6. Invitational Tourney in 1932 Blind Tourney at Royal Center in 1931: County Champions of County Basketball League Cass County Sectional Winner and Regional Finalist in 1938 U-way Tourney at Royal Center in 19Ul Mr. Sparks, Carroll to the students, is well liked by one and alL. In the years he has been coach at Royal Center he has given much of his time to his coaching profession. He has piloted the Bulldogs to ten Casa County Championships and one Sectional Championship. To sum it all up Carroll Sparks is a swell guy and we wish him all the best of luck and happiness in his future years. F)ULLdD(33 1 5 o The Royal Centre Bulldogs opened their season against Camden. Battling all the way through the game, the score was still tied at UO all, at the end of the game. The Camden team was determined to win the first game, using their height in all ways possible. They held the Bulldogs to two points while they collected five. Final score Camden U5, Royal Centre h2. Royal Centre lacked something that most all ball clubs had and that was height. Monte Stuart was. tallest, being a mere six feet. Despite their lack ' in height they always gave their best. They defeated Young America in their 8th game by five points for their first win. The Yanks? at that time were rated second highest in the county. A Review of our players follows: Raymond Duff DeWitt-guard-height 5' 10 ,-weight 170. A senior and varsity player since a sophomore. He was our outstanding defensive man, Dari Gooney Gerlach-center-height 5 7”-weight 180. A Senior and varsity player during his senior year. He was always doing his best on the rebounds which was a great help. , Jim Hank” Wisely-forward-height 5' $n-weight lUO. A senior and 'varsity player for the last two years. He was short but his speed made up for it. He made more than one player look funny John Nacke-forward-height 5 9M-weight 150. A senior and a varsity player during his junior and senior years. You could always depend on him doing his best at all times. Monte Stuart-center-height 6 -weight 185. A senior and varsity player during his junior and senior years. He will be a great loss to the Bulldogs as they will be in bad need of both his height and ability to score. Wayne Berry-forward-height 5' 6n-weight lUO. A junior and very hanc r with that left handed shot. We'll be glad to see him back with the Bulldogs another year. Russell Fry-guard-height 5 9 -weight 155 Ho likes to shoot those long two handed shots, and he can make them too 1 Only a junior, he will be a great help to the Royal Centre Bulldogs next year. Roy Tribbett-guard-height 5' 3in-weight 120. Shortest player .on the team and the smallest. He can move fast and dribble best. He has very fast foot- work. He's only a sophomore and we will be glad to have him back for the next season. Maurice Julian-guard-height 5 6 -weight 11 0. A small person but very speedy and quite accurate in hitting from the field. A sophomore, he'll be coming back to Royal Centre next season. Jerry Bender-forward-height 5 6”-weight 11 0. A small person but very speedy and quite accurate in hitting from the field. A sophrfnore, he'll be coming back to Royal Centre next season. Kenneth Miller-Student Manager. Always a hancfcr man to have around. Always han y at rub downs, taping ankles, and odd jobs. He lightened the load on our coach considerably. Graduation will also get him this year.

Our present Student Council was organized during the 1?1;7-L8 school year. The constitution first drawn up provided for a council composed of one representative student from each of the four high school classes with the principal representing the faculty and student body as a whole. Later, realizing a need for a larger council membership, the student body approved the election of two students from each class with an equal representation on the council of both boys and girls. Early in the beginning of this school year a committee of sophomores met with the Student Council and requested that the organization investigate the possibilities of holding after-the-ballgame dances during the basket- ball season. The council studied the proposal and decided that it would be best to call a night meeting and invite an adult representative from each of the community organizations to study the whole problem of youth recreation- How une present facilities might be made more usable and what additional facilities were still needed. At this meeting it was decided that dances could be held after home ballgames provided certain requirements were met. Under this arrangement dances were sponsored by the Student Council. Music was provided by records. Membership fees were collected to pay for the purchase of records and to pay rent on the nickelodian.
