The new Wing is badly needed and will certainly be an added attraction to the school when it is completed. Upon its completion, not only will the wing have more classrooms, but it will also include a new music room, visual-education room, cafeteria, and showers. It crawls on my pencil, tickles my noseg Eats my lunch, and plays with my toes, lt tortures, it steals, it's a plague to meg lt's the nastiest thing l ever did see. Gads! it's a fly, a monstrous thing That hides in the dust, - Dust, oh, what a pain, That chokes me and gags me. lt seeps in the windows and under the doors. Through the walls, and up through the iloorsg lt settles everywhere, all over the place Then comes the drill's steady pace, What a nerve wracking sound! The h.arnmer's loud pound Makes a crack in my brain, And slowly drives me insane. The workmen whistle and yell, And it's -, but oh well, W'e'll stand the ily, the noise, the dust, For it's simply a must To have our new wing, Such a wonderful thing. IANITORS The smiling gents shown in this picture are the school custodians. Their duties include care of the gymnasium, halls, and classrooms, and the firing of the furnace. Mr. Harbaugh and Mr. Land have been with the school for several years, but Mr. McKenzie joined the staff just this year. In case you cannot distinguish among them, they are: Left to Right: Clarence Land, Frank McKenzie, and Bud Harbaugh. BUS All Aboard! Another day of school is over and it's time to shove off for home again. The first six grades are dismissed earlier than is the high school. They rush to the buses to get the choice seats much to the dismay of the high school stu- dents, who sometimes find that because of the large number of students living in the country, the buses are already packed full and seats arb as scarce as hen's teeth. BUS DRIVERS ln case you have not already recognized this group, its members are better known as the school bus drivers. A 'We Wish to take our hats off to these individuals who certainly deserve credit for braving all kinds of weather and road conditions. First Row: Gurnie Stowers, Russell Godby, lr. Forebush, Iohn Bowen, Harold Kercheval. Second Row: Elisha Stowers, Mrs. Paul Armfield, Ray Noble, Everett Goff, Odie Cline, Lee Egler. - ART A new department, of which everyone is very proud, was added this year. It is the Art Department, with Mrs. Doris Grif- fith as the art supervisor. Sheridan has never before had a trained art teacher. Art is taught to the grade students and is offered as a course to the high school students. This is the high school class sketching out-of-doors. MISS COLBY One of the most indispensable persons in the school and to whom We owe a lot is the office secretary, Miss Colby. Besides her secretarial duties, she effi- ciently performs a variety of other tasks, such as applying first aid to ill or in- jured students. Around tourney time, she is exceptionally busy handling basketball tickets. HOME EC What's Cooking?? These industrious beavers of the kitchen represent the Home Economics depart- ment of Sheridan High School. Many de- licious delicacies are prepared by the girls under the able supervision of Mrs. Esther Linn. Not only do the girls learn the phases of the culinary arts, but they also learn about sewing, home decorating, buying thriftily and all the helpful hints that will enable the girls to later become competent homemakers. CHEMISTRY LAB My, what mysterious proceedings are going on here? This must be the chem- istry lab. Could this be the discovery of a new chemical compound that will set the World ajar?? Those flasks and test-tubes make a fascinating array and the class certainly seems interested in the experiment Mr- Hobson is explaining. Chemistry is one of the foremost sci- ences and the students are fortunate in having the facilities and the opportunity of taking such a course. ASSEMBLY Sh! Sh-h-h-hl Don't make a sound. This is the study hall and you mustn't disturb all the industrious students twho are studying hard on their lessons. That is they're supposed to be study- ing hard, but Mrs. Cline has a sneaking suspicion that sometimes their minds wander from chemical terms, history dates, and Latin phrases to wool gathering and day-dreaming. ,, H 4 GRADE TEACHERS Seated left to right: Mrs. Hazel Talbert, Miss Eulalia Freeman, Mrs. Mildred Hammer, Mrs. Goldie Childress, Mrs. Myrna Stapelton, Mrs. Louise Merrill, Miss Marianna Wills, Miss Olive Iones. The first six grades are a very important part of Sheridan School, and therefore the people who instruct the pupils in these grades are also important. Much of the credit for Well informed and Well, disciplined high school students goes to the grade teachers, Standing: Mr. Harry lnskeep, grade princi- pal, Mrs. Vera bMiller,r Mrs. Geneva Walker, Mrs. Pauline Richardson, Mrs. Virginia Mintier, Mrs. Harriet Ball, Mr. Brian Smith. who in the most formative years of a child's life start him on' the right path toward success and good citizenship. Tis education forms the common mind: lust as the twig is bent, the treefs inclined. , Alexander Pope FACULTY Ioyce H. Cline Central Normal College Butler University, A.B.

To look back on the days so gay TI-IE PAST When the seniors were children at play, I see them with scrubbed, shining ' faces, Entering the first grade to take their places, Among the scholars at Sheridan School. Through the first six years 'the teacher managed to fix r . .., ef In their minds some readinf, Writin', and 'rithmetic. So creepingly, the years stole' by And proudlylithe, class entered -junior high Well into the journey through Sheridan School. As green little treshies, they were initiated Into the realms of high fschool, Where they anticipated That someday mighty seniors they would be. But first came the Latin, math, and history, That all Sophs and Iuniors must pass To become members of this exclusive class That reigns at Sheridan School. The years sped on, and now I se 9 A class of mighty Seniors they be Full of knowledge and education, Solemnly awaiting the day of graduation From Sheridan School.

To give you an idea of how this book was put together, let us look back over the year to the activities of various members of the staff. First of all, early last fall the advertising committee had their workout. Not only did they canvass the businessmen of Sheridan, but as you will notice from the ad section, they also covered many surrounding towns. After the pictures had been taken, they were mounted by the editor and sent to the engraving company. During this time the snapshot committee had been collecting the snapshots which they now mounted. Around December the sales committee began taking orders for the annual, continuing to do so for several weeks. For sometime the art committee had been working on the unique drawings appearing in this book. ln Ianuary, it was time to begin to Write the copy which must ac- company the pictures and tell the story of the activities at school during the L50-'51 year. The joke editors handed in their humorous quips which they had been collecting over the year and the sports editors provided the data on the athletic activities and achieve- ments which have taken place this year. The typists took over then by typing and retyping all the material. The last material to be turned in was the calendar, which had been kept by a com- mittee who had been busy recording the momentous events which occur to a busy Senior class. The main responsibility of organizing the Syllabus fell to the editors andthe business manager. The business manager had to see that money was collected, bills were paid, and that they kept within the budget which was set up at the beginning of the year, allowing a certain amount for engraving, printing, binding, covers, and other expenses. A constant threat to the editors' peace of mind has been the meeting of deadlines. Besides rushing to get their work completed, committees had to be spurred on so as to meet a deadline with the engraving, printing, and binding companies- Much time, effort, and forethought by the annual staff has been put into this book of which we hope you are all proud.

Not pictured: Marilyn Merrill. Grandad Steps Out The audience howled when the Seniors presented 'Grandad Steps Out. Grandad, Carl Arthur, hadn't been out of the house for two years until Iim Mahoney from Arizoney, Wileyf, Sanders, turned up. Grandad's dis- appearance threw the Morton household into a state of ' confusion. Grandad's daughter, Laura, Phyllis Vair, the stupid maid, Tilly, Betty Dillinger, and Kip and Betty, lack Gary and Doris Stephenson, suspect that Grandad has been kidnaped and the detective, Philip Cline, is called in. Miss Abby, Marilyn Mer- rill, the nosey old maid across the street, lack Norwood, lack Godby, and his triplet sisters, Ludie, Iudy, and Trudie, Ruth Pickett, Wilma Haughey, and Iune Graham, and Mrs. lobe Feeney, Barbara Pickett, a bossy house- wife, round out the cast of this hilarious comedy. Iuanita Wade was student director and Miss Elsie Padgett was director.

Not pictured: Bob Adair, Martin Little. The Campbells Are Coming Ma Branniganp Phyllis Hoover, and Dick and Betty Brannigan, lack Gary and Ruth Pickett, were delighted when they found out that Kaye Brannigan, Deloris Grinstead, was coming home, but their spirits were dampened when Kaye intormed them that Mrs. Augusta Campbell, Barbara Pickett, and her son and Kaye's fiance, Kingston, Bob Adair, were coming to- visit. Ieffrey Scudder, Martin Little, Kaye's child-hood sweetheart, and his uncle, Cyrus Scudder, Wiley Sanders, are not happy about the aristocratic Campbell's visit. Catalpa Tapp, Norma Baird, the hillbilly servant, and Bildad Tapp, Carl Arthur, her father, make the startling announcement that Mrs. Campbell is Bildad's long lost sister. Then things really begin to happen! lt was one of the funniest plays ever given in Sheri- dan and a real success. Mabeth Beard was student director and Miss Elsie Padgett was director. y - 'E 1 V t 1 HONOR SOCIETY Don Oberleas, Barbara Pickett, Ruth Pickett, Mrs. Cline, Walter Waitt, Wiley Sanders, Robert Hunt, Carl Arthur, Phyllis Vair. The Alpha Chapter of the National Honor Society was organized in 1946 for the purpose of creating an incentive for better scholarship, leadership, and general attitude ' among the students of Sheridan High School. The organization is composed ot 15 per cent of the lunior class and 25 per cent of the Senior class. To be eligible for membership, a student must be a junior or senior, and maintain a B average. He must also meet these qualifi- cations: scholarship, leadership, character, initiative, personal appearance, and person- Cility. New members selected in 1951 were: Seniors: Don Alexander, Kenneth Ross, Marilyn Merrill, Pat Spencer, and Louise Whalery. tuniors: , Anita Boone, Doran Calvert, Evelyn Har- vey, Marilyn Hershman, Robert Honnold, Sharon lessup, Ioe Landis, Charlene Pad- gett, Stanley Merrill, and Don Weaver. Officers for 1950-51 are: ' President-Walter Waitt Vice President-Carol Overdort Secretary-Wiley Sanders Permanent Treasurer-Mr. Miller Sponsor-Mrs. Cline DRIVERS TRAINING Driver's training was first offered in Sheridan High School two years ago and since then has become one of the most popular subjects. Driving courtesy, safety rules, and highway laws are mastered besides the art of driving. After a few days of class instruction, the classes are given a chance to practice some of the fundamental movements in the training car. A trip to the Sheridan Motor Company is an essential, for each new class. After the first few weeks the students become more adept in handling an automobile and Mr. Stout, the patient and forbearing instructor, has hopes that they will become courteous, considerate, and skillful drivers.

Since it was formed in 1928, the Future Farmers of America has served to motivate and vitalize the instruction offered to students of vocational agriculture and to provide further training in farmer-citizenshhip. The F. F. A. builds many character traits. F. The home, the foundation upon which de- mocracy is built, is only What the family makes it. A nation can be no better than its homes, and future homes will be no better than this generation makes them. Cn these principals, the Future Home-makers of Ameri- ca base their organization.

Football The Sheridan Blackhawks ended the l95O Kirklin originated the trophy, and therefore, season with a record of four wins and five they gave it up only after a struggle. losses. The Hawks started slowly, losing the first three games, but came back to win the The Blackhawks' 1950-51 schedule: next three games. One of the most exciting games of the season was the Noblesville game, in which the Hawks almost ended Noblesville's eight game winning streakg however, the Hawks could not hold their first half prowess, and went down fighting. Another important game was the Kirklin- Sheridan classic, which for the first time this year was played for the Water Bucket.

Neither wanted the day after blues. Proud Kirklin did challenge without any fear, The game was overg Came out on the field as the crowds did roar. The fighting was done. They looked mighty vicious and growled even more. ' The fans raised a cheer. Then out came Stout's boys, a good looking crew. And Sheridan walked off with the bucket so dear Both teams were ready when the whistle blew. One game was over, the bucket was won. Sheridan received and the game began. But the long battle for it, had only begun. W I Football Individuals First Row: Clark Dell, Walter Waitt, Wiley Sanders, Warren Bower.

I recall the past that made the journey possible. ' When the Class of '5l became juniors. the iourney looked far, far away, both in miles and money. Class dues for two years had not added much to their treasury's pres- tige. In fact there was almost nothing in the treasury, but in the minds of those juniors was that wonderful trip. They began to work. On the night of the first football game that year, the popcorn didn't taste quite right and the soft drinks weren't cold enough, but that was only the first time. By the next football game, the workers were more experienced and everything went like clockwork. Selling pop- corn and pouring cokes became routine. Oc- casionally some excitement enlivened the routine in the form of popcorn boxes coming open and showering the fans as the box went spiraling into the air. The workers re- ceived dirty looks when they spilled a drop or two of coke on someone as it went up to the customer by the hand to hand elevator. The efforts of the ball game workers added to the amount in the treasury. The class play added to the treasury, too, and it was such a thrill to think of pro- ducing a stage hit! The excitement of prop erties, make-up, and an ahdience of friends and relatives ont front was nice besides the thought of adding to the treasury. The junior year ended all to soon, for there still wasn't enough money. Money, money, money! How thankful were those pro- spective seniors for having another year to complete their trip fund. It wasn't popping corn or selling soft drinks in the senior year. Oh, no! They had just learned the ropes of those sales jobs so it was time to change. After the terrible coffee and cold hot dogs at the first game, it's a wonder they made any profit at all. No wonder the coffee was awful. The girls didn't have the coffee maker put together right! By the next game the candy, ice cream, hot dogs, and even the coffee was all right. The basketball season brought more fun and hard work for the concessionersp their self disgust when they couldn't catch the money that the customer threw down, and the embarrassment when the paper came off the ice cream bar as it flew up to the fans. The seniors had the candy sales at noon, too. Those little grade school students can't realize how many miles of the trip they paid for by buying candy every noon. The sales of the '51 Syllabus, the frst editing effort of the seniors, and another class play added more to the treasury. ' Now the year is almost over, high school days for the Class of '51 are just a memory. They can sit back in the comfortable bus seats and sing as they head for Washington, D.C. and New York. We've made the money, And now we'll take the time To go sample the Atlantic seashore clime. We'll spend all the money, . We'll have a wonderful time, 'Cause we earned the money, And so we'll take the time. i Snapshot Identification Long ago What? A face?? joe joe!! Pat Smile for the birdie!! Tired, Cleo? Lora .

To the South, North, East, and West, Each to his duty as he sees best. Some Will seek learning and become fine teachers, Others will serve as lawyers, dentists, or preachers Others to the service oi their country will go, A ' With loyalty and bravery' to meet the toe. Out into the World their fortunes to seek, Down the road ot lite they'll make their trek, Gnward, until their youth's gone by, Never losing their memories of Sheridan High.

CLASS As timid little Preshies, they shied away from the big, bad Seniors for the first few days of school: but alas, it was to no avail, for they were fated to eat green persimmons and red peppers, to have their faces smeared with lipstick, and to withstand the trials and tribulations that befall this class at initiation time. Their Sophomore year passed rather un- eventfully. They had a skating party at Rollerland as their class party. That year, Miss Padgett and Mr. Hobson were appointed as sponsors, remaining with the class until their graduation. During their Iunior year, some of the mem- bers of the class were initiated into the Honor Society. The class presented a hillbilly play that was a huge success and began work selling popcorn, and soft drinks at ball games Senior Class Officers Seated: Ruth Pickett, Sec.-Treas.y and Miss Padgett, sponsor. Standing: Mr. Hobson, sponsor, Walter Paw- lak, Sgt.-at-Arms, Carl Arthur, President. Not pictured: Martin Little, Vice-President. HISTORY to earn money for that much awaited Senior trip the next year. A Ir.-Sr. Banquet was given in honor of the Seniors. The Senior year fairly flew by, probably because everyone was so busy. The first semester another class play was given and several members of the class began work on the Syllabus staff. There were many decisions and selections to be made such as selecting caps and gowns, class colors, invitations, and the biggest and nicest problem of all was deciding about the Senior Trip. It was finally decided that they would go to Wash- ington and New York, leaving on April 8, 1951. They chose as their class colors blue and white: Give the best to the world and the best will come back to you asthe motto, and the American Beauty rose as the class flower. q A' The Caravan Z cafw Q fffie Departs .t ,l 9 ff Iack Gary wills his athletic letters and sweaters to Little Gary.

But of course you have your high school memories, too. There are so many little things which are so dear to us, they really are the things which make school days live long after graduation.
