When the school hell with its musical note pierces the autumn air each September, students of RHS may look forward to a year of discovery. Their initial findings will be their fellow students, new classes. and teachers, but their final treasure will be ever-lasting knowledge.

A Variety of curricula, suited to personal abilities, stimulate discovery in new fields of study. STUDENTS SEEK TO IMPROVE their reading ability in the new reading center. In the background students work at thc shadowscopcs, while those at the dcsks take a test in their Wltty books. English Department Accents Fundamentals The lflnglish department of Rushville High School has gained wide approval from col- leges and universities for its well trained stu- dents in the basic functions of composition, grammar, and literature. With the addition of developmental reading and advanced speech courses the ovation should quadruple. Mrs. Orval Wisler, a specialist in advanced reading, supervises the reading center. HHS is one ot' the few schools in the state to have such a department. Under the direction ol' James Gibson, de- lmate and other speech activities have had a rebirth in RHS. Speech has become a major interest to many students, and is a credit to the school. W1 AAL FLORENCE MAIJIPEN. BA..

Whether it is building a rocket to the moon or exploring marine life in the tropical is- lands, science and math-minded graduates of Rushyille High School have a head start in the world. Biology is required ot' all freshmen, who take their fall insect-hunting seriously. Phys- ics introduces a practical note with its em- phasis on light. sound, and electricity, and their relation to this modern age. Odors that emanate from the lab are a part of the thrill of becoming a chemist. Physical science is the fourth offering. Great scientific advancements demand thorough grounding in mathematics. llegin- ning students take algehra or general math and plane geometry. Majors in the field more on to a year of advanced algebra. solid geome- try, and trigonometry.

V 'ir Histor Pupils Explore Past, Present, Future Around the World through reference books could well be the theme of the social studies department. Opportunity quizzes, American Observers, and 500 word themes keep students aware of current events in this rocket age. Seniors observed the state legislature in action on March 3, and saw government on a national level on their trip to Washington.

Foreign Language Stud Promotes World Unit That the Rushville community is language- minded is evident from the fact that approx- imately 50' 1 of the freshmen and sopho- mores are enrolled in Latin or Spanish. Flass projects, note books, and the Language club have furthered their interest. On an experi- mental basis Spanish is being taught 24 se- lected third and fourth grade students. Pop- ularity of Latin is prompting: school officials to offer a third year in the subject beginning next fall.

Three well-equipped rooms in the south wing house this department. Curricu- lar offerings include general business, typ- ing, shorthand, bookkeeping, secretarial practice, and commercial law. Typing and commercial law are all-school subjects. t wig, 2 '3' 5 E1 if ,K 4,5 ll fi iii w., , 'zli I 3? -' fs its '15 if 5 . ,J 8 . , HV Q X jg?

A washer, dryer, deep freeze, and both electric and gas ranges afford ex- perience with modern kitchen equipment. Following the dictates of fashion, girls in the clothing department create their own wearing apparel. The grooming area and the Little House add an air of informality to both departments.

Visitors have marveled at this modern department. Robert McGinnis, a new addition to the music faculty, brought many ideas with him. Watching the band per- form at football games thrilled both young and old. Vocal and instrumental groups from Rushville High School rated highly in con- tests and added to the pleasure of the com- munity. Looking at the showcases filled with sam- ples of the varied talents in our art classes have taken up a few moments of everyone's time. Equipment for making pottery and spe- cial drawing desks add to the efficiency of the art department. WEARING THEIR COLORFUL robes of gray with red stoles. this section of the choir warms up for action.

Fundamentals of tools and materials in woodworking, metals, plastics, and electricity are learned through study and application in this department. Progressive experience in these areas helps hoys to become better ac- quainted with machine-working industries. Embr o Farmers Train in Various Phases of Ag Young men planning their future in tarni- ing or related occupations receive yaluahlly training in the agriculture department. Farm shop is a part of the program ot' study along with judging of land, livestock, poultry. dairy, and crops. Boys in the department are members of the Future Farmers ot' Ameri- ca, a national organization, which trains young men for community leadership. DON'T GET EXCITED!

Assisted by Grayson Mahin and Richard Dragoo, Coach Charles Robbins taught the use of a multiple- type offense with an unbalanced line. A high mark of the season was the Lions' 13-6 victory over Shelbyville in the home- coming game. A bonfire preceded the game, and a sock hop, at which Caroline Cross was crowned queen, followed. Ten seniors played their last game against Connersville, which the Lions won 28-l3. Nineteen awards were given at the end oi' the season. Jerry Smith and Bob Elkins were elected team co-captains, and Tom McCullv DURING THE HEAT OF BATTLE at Brookville, Coach Robbins stops his pacing of the side lines long enough to map out a strategic plav with three of his Lions. won the coveted Jaycee Most Valuable Play- er award.

State's Sweet Sixteen Includes Lion Netters Showing surprising strength, the Rush- ville Lions rolled to a highly victorious hard- wood season with a record of 19 wins and 7 defeats. Highlight ot' the year was the game with Muncie Central in the semi-state tour- ney, where Rushville bowed out of tourney play 77 to 72. Opening the season as a reputedly weak team, the Lions grew in ability and team- work. After an early season loss to Ander- son, the team battled to a 9 and 2 record at midyear. Two weeks after the New Year's tourney, which the Raymen lost to Shelby- ville by 19 points, the Lions clobbered that same Shelbyville five by 24 points. Two more games were Won before they hit It snag, and lost three of the final five games. Two of these, New Castle and Jeffersonville, were decided by a total of six points. John Jones was honored with a position on the all-SCC team, Coach Le: Ray was named Coach-of-the-Year in the cnnference, and Jones and Phil Garrison were elected honorary co-captains. sz' J tr THIS DRIVING LAYUP, executed perfectly by Jim Cal- lnuc-, added two more points to the score, as Rushville top- pled arch-rival.

Scrapp B and Fresh Teams Train for Lion Varsity Under the guidance of Voach Jim Vunditf, the future Lions of the ll-team had a fine season this year, winning ten games and los- ing nine. After a poor start, the Cubs im- proved greatly by the end of the year. The team had good depth as shown by the amount of substitution. Juniors John Lingintelter and Hill Evans, and sophomores Jon Tressler and Doug Brown were leading scorers. The freshmen, during the season, showed great promise for the years to come. They compiled a record of nine victories and only six defeats, and at mid-season won the fresh- man tourney held here. Much credit goes to their coach, Richard Dragoo, in his first year assignment. Leading scorers were Flyde Cor- dray and Steve Moster. Joe Niehotf was free- throw champion. ROW 1: T. Green. C. Cordray. G. Yazel. S. Moster. T. ROW 2: M. Druley, J. Nienoff, G. Clifford. B.

Diamond Enthusiasts Have Fift -Fift Record When Play ball I echoed through the na- tion, a group of baseball-minded Lions fol- lowed Coach Grayson Mahin to the diamond. This year's schedule was strengthened to in- clude most of the SCC schools. At the half- way mark the team had a 3-3 record.

In the SCC' meet, held at Mar-- tinsville, the team placed ninth out of ten schools. During the season it won over Con- nersville and lost to Greensburg. Due to lack of adequate courts, tennis does not receive much notoriety. This year the team tied with Southport for eighth position in the conference. Cross country is 21 filler sport for most boys. Many, however, find it a fine. individ- ual, competitive sport. This years' team was the most out-standing since the sport was started at RHS. The team placed 17th out of 27 schools at the sectional meet, seventh in the conference, and won over four conference teams and lost to one in the regular season.
