SHELBYVILLE HIGH SCHOOL PRESENTS THE 1935 SQUIB AS AN EXAMPLE OF THE STREAMLINE INFLUENCE ON EDUCATIONAL ADVANCEMENT IN THE MODERN SCHOOL . . I ROGRESS We, the Senior class of Nineteen Thirty Five, dedicate this yearbook to the Spirit of Progress as symbolized by the Century of Progress Fair in Chicago. VVe feel that its educational influence has given us a broader, backward glance at the past, a deeper interpretation of to-day, and a more-hopeful, more-promising belief in the future. More clearly do we see that Progress is merely the application of man's best thinkingg more surely do we know that common sense and intelligence nlust be in- separable. Through this panoramic view of the world's advancement We have gained a better knowledge of current problems and of the various efforts being made to solve them. Its many agencies have made us realize that the function of the modern school is to develop ellicient and self- sufficient citizens who can contribute to a better-balanced society. We hope to pass on to our readers at least one breath of the Spirit of Progress which has stirred our thinking? stimulated us to greater effort, and established a deeper respect for those who guide us. The door is open- ing on a greater time-a time pulsing with challenge, overflowing in opportunity, awaiting impatiently fresh thought and new strength. May our simple yet earnest effort be received as a monument to Progress and as a beacon-light to encourage the forward look. l Y L .

The president of the board, Russel E. Goodrich is the 'Kbig chief, of this group, His real importance is shown, however, when he rewards all the deserving Seniors with their diplomas in the spring. After Ralph Cheshire, the treasurer, has Finished signing the checks, he probably could enlighten many of the tax-payers as to where their money goes. While acting as secretary and incidently, learning the duties of the school board, Charles M. Ewing 'gundertakesw to smooth out all the difficulties that arise between the more experienced members of the hoard. That genial gentleman, W. F. Loper, who guided and instructed this Senior class for three years, is the fourth member of the Board of Education. We Pledge To maintain in the future, whether it be in school or in work, the standards and ideals of this school. We earnestly hope to so conduct ourselves as to add materially to the enviable records of all graduating classes' preceeding us. SENIORS. To assume in good faith the responsibilities of the Senior Class of 1936, to plan for a suc- cessful school year, and to do honor to this school by our conduct and achievement. A IUNIORS. To Mr. Breck and the school as a whole, our utmost support and loyalty for the coming school year of 1935-36. We shall strive to uphold the principles of our Shelbyville High School. ' SOPHOMORES. To keep in mind the past reputation of this school so that we, by putting forth every ef- ort, may add to its honor and growth. V FR1asHMEN. ln Appreciation We wish to thank Mr. Breck for his co- operation With us fand his worry about usb in our record-smashing senior year.

This is an honor every Senior wishes to attain and we are sorry that every one cannot attain it, for there are others just as Worthy as we. Fifteen percent of the highest twenty-five percent are chosen by the teachers.

How can we ever find our lockers? ...... We'll never get to class on time, through these long halls?- just a trend of thought from a Freshieis mind, incidentally from one of those one hundred sixteen Freshmen who entered Shelby High School in 193 1, and about whom this brief history is written. The girls of this class showed their courage and superiority from the very First for two-thirds of them dared to begin the intricacies of the language which is Ubeautifuli, even unto deathgi' while most of the boys just couldn't take it and en- rolled in shop. After having shared the dignity of being 8A,s, our Fresh- men were a little disgruntled at being looked down upon by those genius- es, the upperclassmeng but after performing the strictly Freshman task of collecting grasshoppers, they gradually were assimilated into the mys- teries of High School life. I932-33-BHCR to the Big House as Sophomores! This class of 35? al- ready began to have a part in athletics, having contributed one regular member to the undefeated football team and several boys to the second basketball team. And of no less importnce-there were thirteen sopho- mores in the band that took first division in the state contest.

VVhat member of our class has not lived through the embarrassing moments of Ulohnny has a girlu? 1933-34-After most of our class had visited the World's Fair, they set- tled down as ujolly juniorsl'-and how they appreciated that complimen- tary adjective after being known as fresh freshiesu and silly sopho- moresf, Two of our boys did outstanding work on the gridiron, and the basketball team, half composed of Iuniors, won the sectional for the First time in five years. The class organized for the Hrst time and elected Paul Thaddeus Watters as their president. Under his capable direction, and aided financially through the labors of the candy sellers, the Iunior-Senior Reception was the social success of the year. It was an unforgetable Kid Party, taking the class back to the marble age. No Iunior will ever forget that panorama of lolipops, bare knees, and hair-ribbons.. Remember a certain Latin teacher failing to stop at the bottom of the Kiddy slide, the center of our basketball team in rompers, and the Superintendent of Schools with his doll? 1934-35-AS Mr. Breck started his First year as principal, he recognized among the bright and shining faces of the newly-arrived Seniors, many whom he had gui.ded through Iunior High School.

Pleasingly plumpf, Szzzz-hoomebahf' other three oflicers, three girls were chosen, in spite of the boys' dark ideas concerning women in politics., The Seniors constituted a major part of the football team which won five outstanding victories out of seven. Through- out their years of High School this class had dreamed of sending a bas- ketball team to the State Tournament and that this was accomplished in their Senior year with a team largely composed of their own boys still seems an unbelievable dream come true. Not only did they go farther in the tournament than a Shelby team ever went before, by playing the State Champs to a tie in the semi-Hnals, but they also won the name of being the smartest and the most sportsmanlike team at the tournament. To say that the class is proud of these boys is as mild as it is unnecessary. Our A Capella choirs won first in state, and the band and orchestra will probab'y go far in their contests. Besides these laurels for our class, this yearls Squib staff, headed by Evelyn Keeling, has won a victory for itself in publishing this clever and original yearbook. The high school life of this class has seemed short because of its many good times and successes, and as the one hundred four girls and boys that are left look forward to their graduation in May, they also look backward over four years of friendship, happiness, and achievement. fMembers of this class whose pictures do not appear are: Robert Hey, Leroy Phillips, and Harry Pencej XVALTE R F.

TRESSLER High-School Shefkf' 5 lbw i 5 As we approach our Senior year-FF we, of course do not want to pass up this opportuni- t to tell ou of our thus far successful our o inion excluded activities of the ear. Y Y Y P Y With a bigger and better Reception in mind, the girls who sell candy in the lower hall to appease our forever growing appetites, have given splendid support. ln order that the girls might get the best results, they were divided up in pairs, with a small prize going to the two who sell the most candy during the year. With this cause again in mind, we put on the annual Iunior class play. In this most suc- cessful play, uNot Quite Such a Goosen, those great actors and actresses such as Sarah Nees, Betty Bennett, Crystal Linville, Iay Deitzer, and Richard Pell starred. QCan we help it, we have to make it sound good at least.j The Iunior class also had the honor of being represented by the Five following players on this season's basketball tournament team: 'gBill,' Bird, who thought the waiter at the Marott Hotel was trying to play jokes on him at the tableg Edu Page, who thought the negro maid would be NOK' if she had been white, George Means, who thought that two were supposed to eat where he sat because of the amount of silverware, Pete Ray, who thought the bell- boy was a mailman, and FrannyU Ray, who thought the policeman was a street car con- ductor.

In observance of the progress which has been made in the secondary education during this historical period, a nation-wide celebration is being held this year. The objects of the celebration are: to present to the public the aims and works of secondary educationg to emphasize the necessity of public secondary educationg to emphasize the necessity of public secondary education to a free democracyg to acquaint the public with advanced developments in secondary educationg to improve the chances for every boy and girl to benefit from the full program of the secondary schools. We are doing our part in this effort to make the public conscious of the practical achievements of the high schools, their possibilities and their importance in building a planned future. We, with other high schools, are aiding in building up health, in shaping talents, in improving person- al habits, and helping to create a life a little more Worth while.

The high point of the year was the participation of the band, orchestra, ensembles, and soloists in the district music contest at Southport. Many of the awards went to Shelbyville. The band, competing against three other bands, won the right to enter the state contest to be held in Evansville during early May. The orchestra had no competition, but received a plaque for excellent performance, consequently, the orchestra will compete in Evansville. These ensembles won: clarinet quartet-Ioan Clark, Robert Ellison, Donald Brunner, and George Toleng brass quartet-Francis Chesser, Morris Blaich, Eugene Fox, and Iack Estelle, saxaphone quartet-Stanley Banker, William Stafford, Don Sexton, and Eugene Riser, clarinet trio-Eleanor Benton, Ioan Clark, and Carson King. The soloists who won were: Eleanor Benton, Stanley Banker, Roy Coers, and Carson King. The orchestra advertised the school by playing for the State Federation of Music Clubs, and a small band greatly amazed the students at the Edinburg High School in a program there. The band and orchestra furnished music Cnoise by the band at the gamesj for school functions. By playing for the service clubs and the Republican Christmas party, the band served the community. The orchestra also played at the service clubs. A much needed Parentls Booster Club was organized and by sponsoring various enterprises, bought new instruments. Two Kings fthat is, in namej acted as assistant directors for the two organif zations-Oneida as the orchestrais concert mistress, and Carson-as the band's student conductor. Iack Estelle did both the school and band justice as the bandls drum major. It is usually the winners who receive medals. If medals were to be given to directors for their interest, Mr. Schulz would surely be eligible. His spare time enough to bring credit to our school. L - A CAPELLA CHOIR AND CHORUS The chorus class, a feeder for the selected A Capella Choir, consisted of approximately fifty members. Miss Young, assistant director, coached this ambitious group and discovered new talent for Mr. Schulz's choir. The A Capella Choir, song birds of Shelby High, consisted of thirty six members. The progress of this group was outstanding. They sang at the Rotary, Wi-Hub, Nazerene Church, in the school assembly and took part in the Iunior Federation Day Program at Roberts Park Church in Indianapolis. At Christmas time they caroled in the high school halls, at the orphanls home, the county farm, and the hospital. At the annual state contest held on March twenty-fourth at the Claypool Hotel in Indian- apolis, three groups were entered. The boys choir placed first, the mixed choir placed Hrst, and the girls received third place. A special recognition program was given in the assembly for the victorious contestants. Mr. Harry Smith, a local musician, and Mr. Loper spoke. As soon as the contest was over and won, this industrious group began work on the operetta for this year entitled Tune Inf, As a reward for their loyal services and outstanding talent seventeen students were award- ed lyres and thirteen students received lyres. Z , ,H ' I - - r JUNIOR CHOIR The Iunior Choir, under the guidance of Miss Ruth Young, had a very successful year. The high point in the choiris season was the victory at the music contest in Indianapolis. The A Capella Choir competed against three other groups and Won the highest honors. There was no competition for the picked girls chorus, but it received a high grade notwith- standing this. The choir was presented in many public appearances. The members sang at the Methodist and Presbyterian churches, the State Federation of Music Clubs, the Parent-Teacher's Asso- ciation ofthe Major School, before the Iunior High Assembly, and in a Christmas Cantata. THE SUNSHINE SOCIETY This year the Sunshine Society has completed its thirteenth year of beneficial service to the school and community. The yearys activities began with an impressive Freshmen Initiation in October. In Novem- ber, on the eve of the Columbus game, a successful dinner-dance was given for the alumni. At Christmas, parties were given by the Sunshine girls for the grade-school children, and the Society sponsored a play Sauce for the Goslingsf, the admission to which was some article cf food. With this food, eleven baskets were filled and given to needy families. In May, the girls are planning to give a tea for their mothers. The officers for this year are: Eleanor Benton, presidentg Rosamond Terry, vice presidentg Sarah Nees, treasurerg Katherine Cherry, secretary. GIRLS ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The Girls Athletic Association reorganized this year under the leadership of Miss Ruth Young. It is a national organization and the membership is limited to all girls interested in athletics. The group this year sponsored the sale of Red Cross badges and is p'anning to sponsor a county play for girls. l We hope the organization will continue to grow in our school and that it will be the am- I bition of every girl in high school to belong to and to work for the awards which it offers. S-CLUB The S-Club, under the sponsorship of Mr. Trible, has become a more active organization than it has been in previous years. Its presentation of Five dollars to the Sunshine Society for Christmas baskets, a mid-semester dance, the printing and distribution of basketball sched- ules, the arrangement of pep sessions, and the securing of speakers for recognition programs are a few of its accomplishments. Officers of the Club are: Iohn Page, president, Paul WVatters, vice president, Stephen Gut- ting, secretary, Carroll Trees, treasurer, William Bird, sergeant-at-arms. NATIONAL ATHLETIC HONOR SOCIETY Seven new members were initiated into the National Athletic Honor Society this year, which is the largest number of Shelby athletes ever to be taken into this nation-wide organi- zation. To become a member the athlete must be a member of the S-Club and have an average grade above the average of the entire school. New members are Ed Page, Norman Drybread, Carroll Trees, Kenny Anspaugh, Iunior Blackburn, Fred Wagner, and Vaughn Drake. Old members are Iohn Page, Steve Gutting, Paul Watters, and Bill Bird. HI-Y The members of the 1934-35 Hi-Y Club held their meetings in the Hi-Y room on the third Hoof. The club presented its programs under the sponsorship of Mr. Breck and Mr. Bass. Iohn Page served as president. Speakers during the year who spoke at regular bi-monthly meetings were Mr. Knaub, Coach Lostutter, Dr. Cowley, Mr. Tevebaugh, State Secretary of Y.M.C.A., Mr. Loper, Mr. Goodman, and Mr. Abbott. At Christmas the boys put a lighted Christmas tree in the hall in front of the assembly. This was the first time the Hi-Y had undertaken such a project, and also the First time that a tree had been jointly owned by the student body. After the Bloomington basketball game here, the Hi-Y entertained the Bloomington squad and the Shelbyville first team. Miss Mull served an enjoyable banquet in the cafeteria. During the basketball season the Hi-Y operated a check room in the gym at home games. Spectators' wraps were kept in the shop during the game. The annual Hi-Y-Faculty picnic and baseball game were held this spring. Since that time all Hi-Y members have a greater respect for both the athletic and gastronomic ability of the faculty members. New members were selected and initiated in the spring. The newcomers were not spared and were put through their paces before the students. The boys carried out the Hi-Y ideal by assisting the Red Cross, cooperating with the Sunshine Society, and carrying through several other school projects.

Although he did not have a large squad in size to work with Mac rounded out a well-balanced team by the opening game. Carried along by the spirit of team cooperation the boys succeeded in winning their first four games before losing to the tough Iefl of Lafayette Bronchos. The next week they com- pletely humiliated their arch rival Columbus by a score of 58 to 6. They then suifered a surprise defeat from an inferior Rushville team. The Kiwanis Medal based upon playing ability, sportsmanship, and scholarship was awarded to Iohnny Page, fullback, and a four year man. In addition to Page, boys who received chevrons designating years on the squad were Paul Watters, four years, Steve Gutting, four years, Bill Bird, three years, and Glenn Mur- phy, two years.

Coach McCullough then resigned to accept a coaching berth at Crawfordsville. Paul Los- tutter, formerly of Delphi, arrived at Shelby to take up the quest. From the moment of his arrival Lossie talked state tournament to the boys, and by the time of the sectional the team believed they were good enough to go to the State although they realized they had a hard Fight ahead of them. The team defeated Moral and Hope in the sectional before bumping into Columbus in their final game. Playing the greatest defensive game ever turned in on the Sh.lby floor they downed their age-old rival 21 to 12. The regional was almost the same story with Madison and Franklin falling before a de- fense that was beginning to be talked about all over the state. In the State the boys were pitted against Logansport the defending champions. Showing very little stage fright they trampled the Berries and then proceeded to outc'a's Berne in their second-round game. However, in the semi-finals Anderson succeeded in stopping thefn in a heartbreaking over-time game. A truly great team, this squad will always be remembered in Shelbyville as long as basket- ball is played. :Members of the first ten were Steve Gutting, Norman Graham, Iohn Page, Walt Stiers, and Earl Snider, seniors, Franny Ray, Pete Ray, Ed Page, Bill Bird, and George Means, un- cierclassmen. TRACK Under the capable guidance of Mr. McKeand the future looks bright for the track team. Although the squad has not yet been chosen, four men have already participated in the State Indoor Meet at Butler. Eddie Page took second in one heat of the 440 and Kenny Ans- paugh took a third in the mile. Other men taking part were Steve Gutting and Pete Ray.

There are I-ive regulars returning to the baseball team from last year's squad together with several reserves. Smith and Ed Page who divided the pitching labors have returned, along with Wagner at short and Iohn Page and Drake in the outfield. Because of the new suits which have been ordered, a rejuvenated team is expected to take the field against Hope, April 9th. In addition to another game with Hope, two games each have been lined up by Coach Lostutter with each of the following schools: Greensburg, Co- lumbus, and Southport. L.

Commercial Department The Commercial Department is worthy of recognition for the commendable work it has done this year under the supervision of Miss Blanche Ashby and Mr. Carl Humphrey. Here- tofore, the commercial students have maintained a high standard, and present members of the department feel that they have quite a reputation to live up to. In the annual state invitational Commercial Contest at Central Normal College, Danville, Indiana, April 6, the school ranked Fifth in the contest, winning a second and two sixth place team honors. Mary Ray won first place, individual honors in advanced shorthand and second in ad- vanced typing to amass the highest total of any participant in the event.

Members of the beginning typing team, sixth place winners were Mary Hayes, Virginia Richardson and Rosamond Terry. Members of the sixth place beginning bookkeeping team were Helen Inman, Maurice Harrell and Richard Monfort.
