THE 11948 ANNUHL Shortridge High School Indianapolis, Indiana Presents 52? gfzgauefk af 52flaM21kzQe S The Silhouettes Speak. . Just What is a silhouette of Shortridge- life? It's a kaleidoscope of all the Wonderfully excit- ing and solemnly moving experiences which have iilled our four years in Shortridge with never- to-be-forgotten memories. Long after the class of 1948 has become merely another page in the annals of our beloved Shortridge, this silhouette Will remain in our hearts, and more tangibly in this, our yearbook. We're here to paint this silhouette for you, so let's turn the page .... We're so eager to tell you all about our high school career! But Wait . . . perhaps We should first intro- 'duce ourselves. Who are we? We are the typical high school boy and girl, fun-loving seniors now looking ahead to the future. We are a silhouette of the Class of '48. ja Wifi!!! qpmzw r 1 F gifzzmfz 4 .sfclaafafmafzy mfues Wafzfklamany Xie Jes! .75 J ef im mme le :AW ZGIIGJZHX ef in ,Heike Je ,swag -ALMA INIATE We Respectfully Dedicate Our Hnnual . . . . . To a dear friend of the Senior Class, and of all Shortridge. In five short years, Mrs. Henrietta Parker has become familiar to us as a teacher Who does every- thing possible to be helpful and understanding, both in the capacity of a science teacher ands as the sponsor of so many Senior activities. ' To enumerate her services to us' and our school would be a difficult task. As a teacher alone she is outstanding. And it seems the secret of her success With teen-agers can be summarized with a remark of her own . . . I very much enjoy my young friends. From Shortridge Pupil to Principal . . Page Eight , ae. . . .Our New and Genial 'Boss' The appointment of Joel W. Hadley as principal of Shortridge High School last year was unanimously approved by the students whom he had served and by the faculty and alumni With whom he had been associated. Mr. Hadley rose from the ranks of a Shortridge student to teacher-then to the Well-deserved position of principal, filling so capably the shoes of Dr. J. Dan Hull. As vice-principal, Mr. Hadley gained favorable recognition, working diligently for the students of the school and always maintaining a smile for everyone. Now, as principal, Mr. Hadley has continued to serve the students, faculty, and alumni of Shortridge with his expert knowledge of the problems of high school administration. ' A high school that is to succeed must have a capable leader- a man who possesses high ability and a deep love of his work. Our new principal-new in his position, but an old hand at the job of guiding young people--has shown that he is just the man for the job. Under the administration of Joel W. Hadley, Shortridge will continue to be a leader. These are our new boss' two assistants: Theodore Van Voorhees, who has served us in this capacity for several yearsg and Russell V. Sigler, who only recently assumed the office of vice-principal. These busy men are entrusted with many heavy responsibilities. Together they are in charge of the budget and the financial affairs of the school. They, along with our principal, have the unpleasant duty of disciplining- us if we violate any of Shortridge's just and necessary rules and regulations. They perform the latter of-Hee fairly and sympathetically, always' trying to see our viewpoint. They Work hand in hand with the Guidance De- partment in planning and making changes in programs. They are ready at any time to serve as advisers and discuss our difficulties with our parents in an understanding way. To our hard-Working vice-principals we owe a great deal, and we are proud to have known such line men as these during our stay at Shortridge. THE OFFICE FORCE HANDLES THE MONDAY RUSH Page Nine Expert Guidance Fits Us for the Outside World . . . One of the most helpful institutions ever to be established for our benefit is the Guidance Department. The teachers who so unselfishly devote much of their time as advisers have many important duties. One of these is helping us to plan our study programs in such a Way as to best fit us for what We Wish to do after we graduate from Shortridgeg that is, take a job, or continue our studies in college. In order to choose courses suited to our needs and de- sires, We confer with these advisers at regu- lar intervals. They are ready to supply us With information concerning colleges and universities We might Wish to attend. They aid us in altering our programs if it is found necessary. The Guidance Department administers various tests during the school semester throughout our high school careers. These include intelligence tests, the Kuder pref- erence test and personality profile tests. Modern teaching aids such as these pro- vide instructors and advisers with additional vital information concerning our capacity for learning, our ambitions, ,and our per- sonalities. The department keeps a com- plete and detailed record of our grades, family history, school activities, programs, and any recognitions and citations we have received. It helps us to find jobs which will not interfere with our studies. These are some of the ways in which the per- sonnel of the Guidance Office serves us, as students of Shortridge High School. This is the staff of the department: Claude Keesling, directorg Mrs. Nell M. Thomas and Don R. Knight, freshman ad- visers, Miss Dorothy Dipple and Mr. Kees- ling, sophomore advisers, Miss Ruth Lew- man and Kenneth Peterman, junior advis- ers, Miss Dorothy Peterson, senior adviser, and Miss Minnie Lloyd, College Board ex- amination supervisor. Page Ten, BOOKSTORE The wide variety of ar- ticles which the bookstore has in stock never failed to amaze us. Why, it was practically a general store in itself. Cedric C. Hobbs' merchandise includes everything from penny penpoints to our class jew- elry, not to mention all the hundreds of textbooks which the bookstore buys and sells. Assisting Mr. Hobbs as Uclerksi' this year were Betty Lou Stew- art, Sue Kassebaum, Ron- ald Smith, and Eleanor Reed. HEALTH SERVICE Miss Marie Moran, our nurse, knows how to patch up all our bumps and bruises from a toothache to a broken arm, and her office and its two resting wards were always a wel- come haven when we were feeling under the weath- er. Her services also in- clude a semi-annual check- up of each student. We Shortridgers are apprecia- tive of our friendly nurse and all the help she has given us. CAFETERIA Hlvlmmm. Smells like welre having chili today. Remember how we used to speculate all through our third hour classes as to what the bill of fare was for lunch? When we think of how Mrs. Frances Lich- tenwalter feeds 2,000 hun- gry Shortridgers every day, we really marvel at the grand-.Q job she does. With the cafeteria offering a daily menu which included everything from baked beans to chocolate cream pie, is it any wonder that lunch period was our fa- vorite period in the day? BUSINESS OFFICE Remember when we were Echo and Annual agents and had all those little pink slips to worry with? If we thought our job was tough, we should have seen how much of the work re- mained to be done by the business office. Besides un- dertaking theze two major projects, the office also regulates the finances of all the other school organiza- tions. W We the Seniors Speak cfzhafhczkzg aw ghssmafes, Qwe 7211214 glass af 7948 SENIOR OFFICERS Secretary Eleanor Reed Annual Editor Monica Lennox President Jim Jay Vice-President Betty Lou Stewart Treasurer Reed Rice Our Memories of a Wonderful Senior Year . . . Page Fourteen JUNIOR OFFICERS Ted Steeg Art Klein Ellen Norman Joan Robinson Joan Hoster Betsy Dithmer The election of senior officers on October 15 began the year of activities for the class of 1948. The success- ful candidates in the election were Jim Jay, our presi- dent: Betty Lou Stewart, vice-president, Eleanor Reed, secretaryg and Reed Rice, treasurer. The office of editor- in-chief of the Annual Was accepted by Monica Lennox. The governing body of the Senior Class consisted of a presidents council. This group included representa- tives elected from our four senior home rooms, and the above-mentioned class oflicials. The first big event which the seniors sponsored Was the Christmas party, given for the class members on December 13 in the girls' gym. The only admission charged at this affair was a toy, which was donated to a child welfare organization. The party was a huge success. The Senior Colors Committee chose light blue and black for the ribbons of the Class of '48. This year the Senior Play was the famous comedy, 'KYou Can't Take It With You, presented on March 19, 1948, in Caleb Mills Hall. The play was under the direc- tion of Miss Eleanor Dee Theek. May 27 was the last day of school for the graduating seniors. The class Vesper Services were held Sunday, May 30, in the auditorium. The last of the four senior meetings was held on Tuesday, June 1, and the Class Day festivities which took place in Caleb Mills Hall were also on June 1. At last, on Wednesday, June 2, came the night for the most impressive of all Shortridge occasions, the graduation ceremony in the Coliseum. Here the seniors in caps and gowns received their diplomas and prepared to meet their new life with the distinction of being a graduate of Shortridge High School.

How will the seniors hold their election? These are just a few of the tough problems that were handled by our Senior Council during the past two semesters. Six representatives elected from each of the four senior home rooms Cmaking a grand total of twenty-fourj had the weight of the senior class business on their manly Cand womanlyj shoulders . . . the record shows that they did a swell job. The Council handled such 'ftoughiesu as the budget, Class Day af- fairs, and graduation without trouble. Our class president, Jim Jay, kept the Council on its toes, and Miss Dorothy Peterson did the advising -when it was needed. History will show that the Senior Council did its part in keeping our Class of 1948 in line. I Senior home room teachers . . . Kenneth Peterman, Miss Dorothy Peterson, Mrs. Louise Steiger, Mrs. Henrietta Parker, Don R. Knight, and Miss Alice Hessler help seniors make out their pro- , gram cards. Page Fifteen Remember Our Hilarious Christmas Party . . GUESS MARY LOU THINKS IT LOOKS GOOD IT'S JOAN AND PATTY AND THE CHRISTMAS SONGU Page Sixteen SANTA NIPPER . . . And the good time all the seniors had the afternoon of December 16. The 'Who is Santa? contest caused the most pre-party interest as the potential revelers pon- dered over the weighty question. Long after Robert L. Nipper, alias Santa, had come and gone-leaving a few presents, incidentally- there were still a few in doubt. Jim Jay, the senior class prez, handled the proceedings with ease . . . and things seemed to go off like clockwork. ' A few of the afternoons happenings were- the classy warbling off: Natalie Graham and Marge Reed-the accordion duets of Patty Joy and Joan Robinson-the antics of magician first- class Dick Winchester-the ivory-pounding of Don Hopkins-and the all-important function of the refreshment committee. The gym was gaily slicked up for the affair with a Christmas tree highlighting the decora- tions Cwhich also included two tables of punch and cookiesl. Toys gathered at the door were given to Riley Hospital. The following people headed the committees for the party: Darcy DeWeese, tree and decora- tionsg Jane Karrman, gift committee: Janie Fouts, publicityg Dottie Webb, entertainmentg Nancy Miller, foodg Dick Gause, musicg Barbara Burchfield, project committeeg and Evan Parker, deck-swabbers. Our Class Day oflicers make plans for the big day fleft to rightbz Don Hopkins, will-makerg Jack Leer, giftoriang Janet Court- ney, prophetg and Anne Malone, historian. Senior Week Found Seniors Weak Our senior class prophet has been at Work. Part of our last big fling came in the Senior Week when the class officers gave way to allow the giftorian, the historian, the willmaker, and the aforementioned prophet to reign supreme. Class Day was characterized with roving seniors and the big program in Caleb Mills Hall, at which time we upperc1assmen really cut some capers. Senior Week included Annual autographing, fond farewells, and little of anything in the studying line. It's always a sign of approaching graduation . . . and there are always nostalgic memories of four l-o-n-g, hard years.

The Honor Society--Eighty-five Strong Because of their scholarship and their con- tribution to the varied program of activities here at school eighty-five members of the senior class were elected to become members of the Short- ridge chapter of the National Honor Society. According to the constitution of the organiza- tion, only a limited number of seniors are eligible for membership. Here at Shortridge the personnel of the group is determined by a combination of the student's scholastic rating in his class and by his contri- bution to the school's activities program as de- termined by the number of citations which he has received during his four years at Shortridge. Qualities which are considered important by the honor group are scholarship, leadership, character, and service. The first meeting of this yearis chapter was held Thursday, March 4. That's when they took this picture of us, and that's when we elected officers. Our initiation service was held in the spring and our parents were invited to come. It's fun to be a member of the Honor So- ciety, but as Miss Mildred Foster, our sponsor says, it also carries a responsibility, for we all feel that we must live up to the ideals of the society and must develop those qualities which made us candidates for election. Officers and sponsors of the group include Carl Bals, president, Martha Grace Clark, Carol Lannerd, Larry Noling, Horace Shonle, vice-presi- dents, Rebecca Lane, secretary-treasurer, Miss Mildred Foster, Mrs. Gertrude Weathers, Mrs. Blanche Rawlings, Miss Dorothy Dipple, sponsors.

Page Fifty-Six Shortridge lost a great friend in the passing of Simon P. Roache on July 19, 1947. Mr. Roache had been a loyal friend and companion to Shortridge students since he came to teach here in 1912. - His smiling face, jovial manner, and subtle sense of humor shall remain in the hearts of all those fortunate enough to know him. Mr. Roache loved Shortridge and Shortridge loved him. In his 35 years of service he saw the dream of the new building become a reality. We miss the cheery smile with which he greeted all who passed Room 344. All of Shortridge-students, faculty, administration-feel the loss of a typical, loyal Shortridger. Shakespeare to O. Henry Well Mixed With Grammar Readin', 'ritin', and 'rith-Whoops, there's no 'rithmetic in the English department, but there is spelling. In addition to the first two R's we learned to speak, listen, and think. In readin' most of us graduated from the simple comic strips to more diflicult material. In 'ritin' we learned to pen our ideas clearly and logically. Some of us entered our literary efforts in the various contestsg others just Wrote the usual notes and letters. We all talk, and we like to say what We mean. To express it formally, in English we learned to express our thoughts clearly and effectively, While We heard and interpreted accurately the words of others. The basic goal of the department is thinking through communication, for by thinking We can form accurate judgments of what we read and hear. Ex Librisu We all enjoyed the friendly atmosphere of the Charity Dye Library which Was estab- lished to commemorate a famous Shortridge teacher. Mrs. Esther Cavanagh, head li- brarian, and her assistant, Mrs. Jean Jack- son, helped us iind books and periodicals for supplementary reading. From its 21,000 volumes the library sup- plies material for the history reference rooms and classrooms. We are particularly proud of the Hodges collection of biology books and the collection of memorial books honoring former teachers and students'. Miss Manuel's English III's get a lesson in grammar. These English VII's seem to be enjoying the subject! A typically busy morning in the Charity Dye Library. Page Fifty-Seven Page Fifty-Eight Language From A To Z Our world is so little now! Modern transpor- tation has brought the various nations and races right into our own back yard, and we feel, as never before, a need for a good knowledge of their languages. We can visualize ourselves in the future, iiying or sailing great distances in a short time, and certainly Americans like us couldn't conduct a very intelligent conversation with a Frenchman, or a German, or a Spaniard, without having some background concerning his native tongue. In Shortridge, we have excellent courses in these three languages, as well as Latin, from which much of the vocabulary and structure of French, Spanish, and English were derived. An- other class, Latin and Greek Derivatives, deals solely with the derivation of English words, pre- fixes, and suffixes from these two sources. Besides studying the tongues of other na- tions in the classrooms, we participated in many extra activities pertaining to the particular course we were pursuing. In Latin we enjoyed dis- cussing the customs of ancient Rome, in our clubs, the Junior and Senior S.P.Q.R. The Ger- man Club offered educational entertainment for those of us especially interested in that lan- guage. As French students we found enjoyment in sending food and clothing, as well as letters, to a school we had adopted in Calais, France. These are some of the ways in which our Shortridge Language department has brought the people of foreign lands closer to us in under- standing, if not in distance. We Shortridgers really appreciate the line work which this de- partment is doing to help make our world One World. Miss Dodson leads a discussion of Roman customs. This Spanish class looks hard at work. The engrossing subject is some German grammar. The photographer draws more attention than the French. From Adam to Molotov In History Department Some of the most valuable training we received at Shortridge was from the many courses offered by our History Department. Our classes in history were planned with the idea of giving us practice in critical thinking, as well as expanding our back- ground and appreciating our heritage. The courses were varied, and divided carefully in order to cover the field thoroughly. Ancient and World History supplied us with basic knowledge as to the founding of civili- zation, and its progress through the cen- turies up to the modern age. The history of America was included in two main courses and a special class devoted to the discussion of the social development of our country- all about the taxes which welll have to pay in a few years and the way in which we'll run our government. Many unique approaches to the study of history were devised to make it even more interesting. A Speakers' Series was directed, in which our Shortridge teachers and organ- izations presented interesting and informa- tive programs for the students in the His- tory Department. Among these discussions and lectures during the season were a talk by Mrs. Hope B. Nevitt, giving a first-hand account of the meetings of the United Na- tions which she attendedg an illustrated lecture by Miss Grace Custer on her trip to Mexico, Mrs. Gertrude Weathers' report of a recent trip to France, an oral biography of the great scientist, John Dalton, by Frank B. Wadeg and numerous panel reviews and debates which were presented by the Senate, the History Club, and Mrs. Madge Tem- perley's Discussion Group. -Mliss Lloyd explains voting machine to Helen Iverson . wi!

Page Fifty-Nine Where The Mathematical Geniuses Are Born It looks like these kids really know their arithmetic' It was really a job to decide what math courses to take when the department offered everything from general mathematics to analytic geometry and trigonometry courses preparing students for every vocation from business to science. And, honestly, with those weapons like the atomic' bomb and germ warfare, we really need that experience of reason- ing accurately and applying our logic quickly. And you know what they teach you in math class-speed and accuracy-well, that's just what you should develop for any future- job. And besides . . . no matter what you do, you're sure to use math, even if it's only to measure for the new linoleum or check the addition on those register slips you get from the super market.

A From Atoms To Anatomy-Our Science Department You Want it? We've got it! That'S the motto of the Shortridge Science Department. Yes, indeed, our Science Department oiers instruction in everything from airplanes to anatomy, from hyacinths to hydrogen. In the chemistry division, with Frank B. Wade as head, there's everything from elementary fand the two buck kindy chemistry to qualitative and quantitative analysis. In the bio-physiology division with Robert C. Black as head, Shortridge offers geogra- phy, botany, zoology, biology, and physiology. CMy goodness, they rhyme.J But don't go away, that's not all. There are also physics and aeronautics, under Robert C. Grubbs and H. H. Siemersg and psychology with Lester Groth. Besides the regular staff' of teachers the departments also have student assistants who-Well, ah, er, assist, and they get paid, too. This past year's assistants were Jim Beacham, Barbara Wolfgang, Lorraine Rodenbarger, and David Peat, in botanyg Walter Ballevv, Bill Humphrey, and Joe Guarnery in zoologyg Don Cassady, Jack Siebe, A.

Our Commerce Department is Where the future stenographers and accountants got their training. Besides excellent courses in shorthand and typing, the department also offered us Junior Business Arithmetic, Ma- chine Calculation, Business Law, and Retail Problems. These classes proved beneficial to most all of us, Whether we planned to enter the business World or not, for what student couldn't use a knowledge of short- hand for taking' notes speedily, or enough typing skill to enable him to type all his themes and book reports? When these courses have proved such a help to all of us, is it any Wonder that nearly half the enrollment of our school was taking some subject off-ered by the Commerce Depart- ment this past year? Page Sixty-Two Stenographers in the making. Dorft Drop That Pan Gee, but something smells goodlt' Those tantalizing odors which came from the spot- less kitchens of the Home Ec department certainly Whetted our appetites. The girls tell us' that they select, prepare, and serve all kinds of good things to eat. In the advanced classes they prepare special meals for Shortridge guests. Make the home beautiful is the theme of the classes studying the decoration and furnishing of the home. An artistic choice of colors and a pleasing arrangement of furniture and decorative pieces makes a room more beautiful, according to the home- makers. In the clothing field the girls learn to choose materials suitable for wearing ap- parel, and how to make garments of good line and color which are becoming and stylish. Some of the girls in the sewing classes entered dresses in the annual con- test sponsored by the Daughters of the American Revolution. The way to a man's 2 heart . . R' The new look in the making. j MIC. I Don't pi the type, boys. H IO I l 'lo Arust to Aumence Eleven of the twelve corridors in our school are as alike as eleven peas in a pod. One, however, is unique. Can you guess which it is? Why, of course-the Selleck Art Gallery on the third floor. Here the walls are lined, not with lockers, but with sketches and paintings done by students in the adjoining rooms, who Worked with pen, pencil, and brush to become the artists and draftsmen of our generation. An expert staff of art teachers, including Charles Yeager, head of the departmentg Orrin Thundere, Miss Jane Messick, and Miss Essie Long, have aided those of us who struggled to become future Rembrandts. All of these teachers have had much experience in the teaching as well as in the practical applica- tion of art. Versatile Gordon O. Johnson has been the one-man teaching staif of arts and crafts and mechanical drawing. Our Art Department was a great help to us this year in handling the layouts of the Annual and the Christmas Echo, the designing of the Junior Vaudeville Program cover, and in making the many eye-catching posters we saw from time to time in our corridors and classrooms. And they drawed those purty pictures too. A popular meeting place is the art gallery. Printers of Tomorrow Are the basketball programs ready? How soon can we have those tickets? Is it too late to get this notice in tomorrow's Echo? Here's another ad for the Vaudeville pro- gram. Are those science manuals finished? All these are familiar questions to the triumvirate in the Shortridge Print Shop. Printing the Annual probably is the most ambitious undertaking of the shop, and to do it while printing the Echo each day is quite an achievement. The personnel of the shop includes J. Woodard Auble, who teaches two double period classe.s in which the boys learn to set type and run the presses, Paul Gak- statter, who does the linotype workg and Charles Irby, who runs the press. Page Sixty-Three From Physical Education To Health And Safety Say . . . that's a good deal . . . I mean the varied program sponsored by the Phys. Ed. department this past year. Russel S. Julius, Thomas Wood, George N. Gale, Roy Aberson, and Jerry Steiner really worked hard to carry out a gym course that would benefit all of us. Besides taking part in many sports activities we fellows also went in for exercises which were real muscle-builders. Y'es, but those were all for you fellas . . . what about the Girls' Physical Ed department? Mrs. Mary Treichler and Miss Alice Hessler had a swell program of physical training' for us girls that included not only sports and body building exercises, but dancing too. Arthur Murray won't get any business from our gym classes. Hands on hips, place. One two, three, pull. Don't play with matches! Health and Safety, although one of our required subjects here at Shortridge, is also one of the most interesting. Mrs. Kate Steich- mann and Paul E. Dill, the teachers, have conspired to make it a well-rounded, com- plete, and far-from-dull semester course. By making charts and studies of our diet, we learned to be more careful of our eating habits . . . and by drawing accurate sketches and discussing parts of the body we learned more about the great human machine Through studies of safety methods we became more conscious of ever-present danger. Page Sixty-Foun' Make Ours Music And the angels sing might well have been the opinion of any Shortridger who happened by 401 some morning and heard our music groups take it away. Our Music Department offers to our young singers an excellent chance to develop their vocal talents. We couldn't resist peeping in on one of these mornings to see where all the lovely notes were originating, and there were rows and rows of our classmates looking slightly cherubic under the batons of Mrs. Laura C. Moag and Mrs. Geraldine T. Clippinger. And this is where all the preparation starts that results in the iinished professional sounding auditorium programs. A voice student here at S.H.S. may join the Girls' Glee Club, the Ensemble, the Choir, the Boys' Glee Club, and Chorus. There are classes in music appreciation and harmony, too. Our future Sinatras and Crosbys belonged to the Boys' Glee Club, which put on several per- formances at school as well as singing over the air.

Page Sixty-Five Laufatee Burke We String Along With the Orchestra The performance of the Shortridge Orchestra, under the direction of Will F. Wise, was one of the most-looked-forward-to occasions on the auditorium program schedule during the Whole season. Be- sides serving us in the auditorium, the Orchestra played in the May Music Festival, the All-City Or- chestra Festival, and the all-important commence- ment in June. A small theater orchestra selected from the concert group furnished music for our all-school plays and the senior play. A string en- semble played for the Christmas program too. Vari- ous members of the Orchestra participated in solo festivals sponsored by the Music Department of the Indianapolis Public Schools. Seniors in the Orches- tra who had played for six semesters or more Were awarded important-looking gold pins, and those who served four semesters received silver pins. These are the highest awards ever given by the Music Department. The Shortridge Orchestra is directed by Will F. Wise. a 9 1 V 14 A Page Sixty-Six y 1 The Boys in Blue--' Always Something New An innovation this year Was a series of Band appreciation concerts given in the grade schools to help create interest in instrumental music. Our band also participated in the May Music Festival and marched with the R.O.T.C. at Federal Inspec- tion and in the Armistice Day parade. The brass ensemble played at Monument Circle for Christmas and Easter municipal programs. Oh, and another thing-which We think was most spectacular-was a system of stunts prepared for the band by Mr. Shultz and performed during the halves of all the local football games. We'll never forget the time it rained so terribly at the Cathedral game and the boys had a Shultz-stunt all planned, but the muck and mud of the Held prohibited it. Not ones to be daunted, six of the brass ensemble rolled their pants legs to their knees, marched down the middle of the rainesoaked field and conducted us in the singing of our school songs. Such was the spirit of our band. Robert J. Shultz directs the band. Xss s .IX John Mahrdt .P 4 5 ' J I f H 3: I sa , f J f qc 'I' Ng, -V fxf qty 'xi 'S' 5, W5 if, X lk NL - 4- na . . mg rl. Page Sixty Seven Page Sixty-Eight Attention! Forward, March . . . The new look played an important part in our lives as Shortridge R.O.T.C. cadets this year. Not only did we boys shed our ancient olive drab for more up-to-date regalia, but the school elected three girl sponsors to serve with the battalion at parades and inspections. The head man and C.O.', Ccommanding offl- cerj for the unit this past year was Lt. Walter R. Fleming, and his right-hand man was M!Sgt. Albert C. Fischer. Together they worked with the cadets, instructing us in all phases of military education. In Room 129, as Well as on the pa- rade ground, emphasis was placed on the little things which go to make up good oiiicers of the future. The Armistice Day parade last November found us hoofing it down Indianapolis streets in the face of the c-o-0-ld Winter wind. Previous to the parade we had learned that we had been rated tops in the city after reports were tabu- lated from the Federal Inspection in May of 1947. During the fall We brushed up on drill, rifle handling, and learned the A.B.C.'s of tactics. When the snow began to come we moved inside where we were exposed to book larnin ' until the Spring. The big project of the military department was the selection of girl sponsors. After an all-school election Jody Hoster, Marilyn Alexander, and Cynny Pittenger were chosen. Through a series of exams the officers of the unit were chosen. The cadet majors were Richard Bowers and Richard Stoeppelwerth: the adjutant, Jim C. Hirschman. Uniforms for the girl sponsors were fash- ioned by the Shortridge sewing classes, but we cadets got our new garb from the Tech maga- zine. When Spring rolled around once more, we strutted our stuff before oiiicers of the Second Army in the annual Federal Inspection on the campus.

Yes, Happy Birthday to the world's oldest high school daily, our own Shortridge Echo! Weire really proud of ,our paper and each one of us takes individual pride in its iifty years of praiseworthy achievement. On January 22 we celebrated this golden anniversary with a ban- quet and series of tableaux at school. Young and old-students, alumni, friends-came to honor the Echo and a most enjoyable evening was spent. We know that for long months before the actual celebration committees worked in prepa- ration for the big event, and the final success testified to the amount of midnight oil that was burned. The cafeteria was transformed into a gilded dining room, the halls and library were filled with reminiscing, hand-shaking alumni, and snapping flash-bulbs, and the stage provided the setting for a pageant depicting the history of the Echo from its doubtful beginning back in 1898 to the 2,000 circulation it now boasts. Right now, under the helpful guidance of Miss Jeannette Grubb, assisted by Miss Doris Manuel, the Echo mirrors our school life, boast- ing a competent staff headed by five experienced editors. Five editions of the daily are put out each week under the critical eyes of editors Marilyn Gernstein, Jim Merrell, Mark Colby, Janie Fouts, and Mary Lockwood. The big advantage of a daily newspaper is its coverage of events. This year We had an alert bunch of sports writers who kept us up to date on all the athletic events. A string of talented columnists added variety to the Echo's pages, while the mainstay of the paper-the re- porters-worked hard to track down the news which never failed to hold our interest during home room period. Putting out a daily is always big business, as Bloor Redding, our business manager, knew only too well. Assisted by Mary Lou Jamison, Bloor kept the Echo going- all year with the green stuff it took. With our Echo's success for 50 years already history, we Shortridgers are looking forward to the future and to another fifty years of continu- ous daily publication.

To Make 0ur Christmas Brighter Say, this year's Christmas Echo was really neat -from Jim Peed's swell cover design to the very last short story written by the Fiction Club. But we guess its chances were pretty slim back in the autumn when it was decided to try the magazine Without advertising this year. Thanks to the hard Work of Editor Jim Merrell and the rest of the staff-Mary Lockwood, Anne Malone, Janie Fouts, Mary Colby, Ellen Norman, Bob Munger, Peggy MacNelly, Marilyn Gernstein, Ted Steeg, Jim Siden- sticker, Barbara Finch, and Sue Hostetler-the magazine turned out a grand success, surpassing even the fondest expectations of Miss Jeannette fLeft to rightl: Janie Fouts, Mary Lockwood, Jim Merrell, Ted Steeg, and Warren Rich. Page Eighty Grubb and Miss Doris Manuel, the faculty advisers. The junior O. Henrys in the Fiction Club, under the direction of Miss Ruth Louise Armstrong, were responsible for all those excellent short stories which we enjoyed reading so much. And did our wallets sigh with relief when Bloor Redding and Mary Lou Jamison, the business man- agers, were able to keep that price down to its pre- war level! Oh, yes, and those photographs by Mr. Siemers and the illustrations by Miss Essie Long's art classes were wonderful too. Yes, the 1948 Christmas Echo was really a grand Yuletide present for us Shortridgers. Journalism . . . And a Thousand Other Things Hey, that's a good deal . . . going to class and getting paid for it! Yep, that's just exactly what Shortridge's correspondents to the local papers do. These lucky guys and gals are Warren Rich with the Indianapolis Times, James Merrell with the Indianapolis News, and Janie Fouts and Ted Steeg with the Indianapolis Star. And these newspapers pay them for each story published! But . . . and here's the catch . . . that's not all they do. Their duties often varied from cor- responding to proofreading, from making Echo business trips to mailing or telephoning . . . there was even a lot of Echo journalism thrown in just to keep them busy. Guess if We Wanted to get rich quick we should have enrolled in a journalistic correspondence class. Left to right: C. C.

But after a lively try- out in January, William Burnette, Patty Hart, Marjorie Kahn, Gerald Kraft, James Merrell, and Dick Russell were chosen. But debate wasn't the only interest of our Shortridge speakers. Yes, there was also oratory. In this field Richard Russell was chosen as our representative to the Wabash Oratorical Contest, and Dan Nyhart, to the American Legion Ora- torical Contest.

And that's Why we all spent a little of it back there on March 19 to see our class' senior play. This top-notch production of that hilarious Broadway hit, You Can't Take It With You, was given under the .supervision of Mary Obear, student director, and Miss Eleanor Dee Theek, faculty director. It was all about a sweet, young girl, Alice by name, who fell in love with her boss' son, Tony, and he with her. So far so good, but here's the catch-and also the plot- Alice had a completely wackey family. Grandpa hadn't worked for twenty years, ever since he decided one day that he was Wasting his time at his office. Her mother painted ridiculous pictures and wrote even more ridiculous plays, and her father spent all his time making fire- works in the basement. Excellent character portrayals were turned in by each member of the cast, which included: Linda Wohlfeld as Alice, Jewell Jean Lain as Penny, her mother, Bob Swan as her father, Dottie Webb as Alice,s ballet-crazed sister, Essie, Roger Sheets as Essie's husband, Ed, David Lewis as Grandpa, Mark Colby as Mr. DePinna, the icemang Billy Solotkin as a Russian dancing teacher: Carol Segar as Olga, a cousin of the czarg Barbara Bartick and Bloor Redding as Rheba and Donald, the colored servants, Jim McBride as Tony, Larry Noling and Monica Lennox as Mr. and Mrs. Kirby, Donald Thiele as the investigator, and Dick Gause and Weldon Johnson as G-men. The whole cast listens as Mary Obear gives directions. Page Eighty-Two Shure 'n' Peg Captured Our Hearts There's a first time for everything . . . And for the first time in our four years at Shortridge, a play actually began on time! Well . . . almost, anyway. It was exactly 8:18 on the night of October 17 that the curtain in Caleb Mills Hall rose on the first All-School Play of the year, Peg 0' My Heart. The production, under the direction of Eleanor Dee Theek, began with a Solo of the hit song, Peg 0' My Heart, sung by Frank Parrish, a Shortridge alumnus. Written by J. Hartley Manners, this comedy concerned a transplanted Irish girl--transplanted to Brooklyn, that is-whose rich old uncle died and left her a huge sum of money. But . . . to cash in on it, she had to go to England and live for one year with her snobbish aunt, Mrs. Chi- Pat Locke as Peg chester. in trying to become a lady . . . here she found the man of her heart, handsome Lord Jerry. Pat Locke turned in a starring performance as the impulsive, friendly Peg, while Larry No- ling provided the romantic interest as the English Lord Jerry. The Worldly Chichester family in- cluded Dottie Webb as the frigid Mrs. Chichester, Linda Wohlfeld as her pampered daughter Ethel, and Jack Forbes as her son. Donald Thiele portrayed Brent, Ethel's 'fEng'lish-accented suitor, while Bloor Redding added humor to the difficult situation as the persistent solicitor. In- nocent bystanders in the Chichester household Were Dorothy Jeffries as the maid, and Dick Winternheimer as the butler. Here began her trials and troubles A The Chichester family spends a quiet evening at home. Bridget, the maid, and Jarvis, the butler, look on as Ethel threatens Brent and Lord Jerry pleads with Peg. In the midst of it all Solicitor Hawkes attempts to explain some complicated legal matters to Mrs-. Chichester. Page Eighty-Three Mavqqrefl' Fade Hannon, Voucluflll Q.

Bewildered Freshies The annual crop of greenies descended upon us last September, amidst a bewildering flurry of forms, schedules, and little yellow study slips. By the end of the year these youngest members of our Shortridge family were just as much at home as we, the mighty Seniors, were, getting into the thick of it by taking part in our varied extra-curricular program. . . Carefree Sophomores It's said that the Sophomore year is the one in which you just mark time between the thrill of entering high school and the rush of Junior activities. However, our Sophomores this year had fun showing the Freshmen the ropes and earning a place for themselves in Shortridge life. In fact, sometimes when the rush of col- lege plans and busy Senior activities were be- ginning to get the best of us, we longed for the carefree life of a Sophomore. . . . And Mighty Juniors The Juniors got their first taste of politics last fall when they elected ofiicers, and from the time they cast their ballots, there was never a dull moment in the lives of the almost- Seniorsf' Their various activities piled on top of each other. and they had loads of fun with their successful Vaudeville, their Junior Prom, and ushering for Commencement. Page Eighty-Six The Freshmen iill out their Form 23's. Sophomore gals tear up their gym suits The Juniors cast their votes at the polls Remember Our Many Auditorium Programs We really had a wonderful selection of pro- grams this year! Hitting a few of the highlights, remember the uproarious Bluebelle-Uglyman teaser when the candidates were introduced to us as our favorite nursery rhyme characters? How can we ever forget Ted Steeg in his night- gown and nightcap as Red Ridinghood's Grand- ma, or the three fur-coated bears who sang their story with a boogie beat? And then there was the time when Bruce Hilkene, captain of the Michigan football team, showed us his col- ored movies of the Rose Bowl game. We all en- joyed seeing these rare pictures and especially his amusing commentary. Of course pep sessions play an important part in the sports program, and we had our share, with the different teams and the cheerleaders presenting a variety of amusing stunts. The one pep session which sticks in our memories is the Dr. I.Q. program which Mr. Nipper emceed. Then there were the concerts by our band and orchestra, and, as a special treat, we were fortunate in having the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra play for us. Mrs. Moag's and Mrs. Clippinger's' choral groups also presented pro- grams for our entertainment. Our brain children starred in the Awards Day program which was planned last spring and also in the Honor Society auditorium. And as for drama, we saw some really professional-looking programs at Halloween, Christmas, and Easter time, not to mention the play teasers which gave us peeps at the dramatic efforts' of our Theeks- pians. Surely we all owe a large vote of thanks to our Auditorium Committee and the grand job which they did! f x.. Q T . .-:H ' .-.:...:.. ft: ' ':,f.- ' f 2, H439 t X li: - Z! to Short periods today! That meant an auditorium the third period. Remember how it used to have us guessing? Would it be a band concert? A seren-ade by the choir? A speaker? It was really hard to guess, because the Shortridge auditorium committee, under the sponsorship of Robert Shultz, arranged for us a great variety of forty-minute programs. Whatever the entertainment was, we were always sure that it would be most enjoyable, and well executed. In order to plan these weekly presentations, the committee met at least once a week. The group consisted of specialists in each type of program. That is, there were at the meetings representatives of sports, music, dramatics, and dancing. Also present were the old and new vaudeville chairmen, who could offer valuable advice in the planning of an auditorium. Joan Robinson was the chairman this year.

Page Eighty-Seven I Remember Our Social Life QQ, 1 ff, Q Zig nu. Can we ever forget the thrill of our Junior Prom, or the excitement of the Grad Dance, and all the other gala dances and parties which made our high school years so much fun? We'll treasure the memory of all these red letter dates always, for they were so much a part of our Shortridge life. Social clubs were one thing at Shortridge of which we seemed to have no shortage. Nearly all of iw belonged to at least one un-sponsored social club-many of us two or three-and as members of the clubs we undertook all the big plans of the year, which included everything from teas and dances to hay-rides, Wiener roasts, and spur-of-the- moment get-togethers. The big plans of some of the larger, more established clubs included annual dances, which competed with one another for attendance and support. Name bands were sometimes found for the occasion, but whether it was a big band or not, the social clubs always offered a good time to all who came. ,g e fi . i ' '15 5 li Y ' IB I Wanna balloon. is ge ' , .

Our School Life In Print . . . The Annual They say that a yearbook should record the history of the school and that is just what the editors and staff of the 1948 Annual have tried to do for us. To include all the pictures that We would like to have and still keep within the budget set up for them Was a chore, but they must enjoy seeing their eiforts actually in print. The editors started way back last summer to make plans for our book. They were always talk- ing about dummies and layouts and things that didnit seem important to us, but which meant a lot to them. It was some mysterious thing called a deadline that made us all have our pictures taken before Thanksgiving. We noticed that from then on things buzzed in the Annual office. A The first drive for funds almost netted the quota of 1800 books and there Weren't many left to be sold during the second semester drive.

Just like the Y.M.C.A., of which itis a part, the Hi-Y trys to create and maintain the standards of Christian character in the school and the community. With Daniel Welch as the sponsor, the fellows in the Hi-Y all pitched in to do some worthwhile things, including lunch-time music and poster campaigns. Student Board We owe a debt of gratitude to our Student Board. It is this group which has made possible the maintenance of so many of our school's extra conveniences and entertainments. These include our noon movies, the two coke machines in the cafeteria, the recorded music for the social hour, and the biggest social event of the year, the annual Bluebelle-Uglyman dance. The Board consists of representatives from each home room. It is under the sponsorship of Mrs. Eugenia Hayden, with Daniel Welch. At meetings, dis- cussions are held on new methods of bettering the school life. A food-saving campaign was launched last December. Radio Workshop The High School Hour is an interesting program over the local ether waves, but if it weren't for the Shortridge Radio Work- shop with its talent, this school would not be represented over the air. Members join by submitting scripts, and activities include all phases of broadcasting. Mrs. Eulah Davis Vos' is sponsor of the club. History Club An eventful year was enjoyed by the members of the Shortridge History Club un- der the sponsorship of Mrs. Danna L. Hu.1T- man. Outstanding in the season's activities was Mrs. Hope Nevitt's report to the group on the meetings of the United Nations which she attended. Other of the year's events included fes- tivities at Halloween and Christmas, not to mention the club's annual spring picnic. The student historians also sponsored a movie, The House I Live In, in collaboration with the Y-Teens. Oflicers for the fall and spring were Darcy DeWeese, presidentg Bob Mouser, vice-presidentg Peggy Frary, secre- tary, and Lyla Matthews, treasurer.

Of course all girls are members of the league, but rep- resentatives are elected from each home room to form a cabinet and advise Mrs. Hayden concerning matters of interest to girls, and the financing of projects to better the school. At the request of the R.O.T.C., the league is buying attractive , arbara Gregg, Betty Biddle, Pat military cape for the three girls chosen as this year' M. T. Honor Guard.

The Junior Kiwaniansf' alias the Key Club, is a junior version of the national Kiwanis' Club. Membership is based on a recommendation from the high school principal, and the Key Club boys did a swell job in carrying out their year's projects to live up to the Kiwanis tradition. sold to help raise funds for its many projects, among which was a coke party for freshman girls. It has been the organ- ization's special aim for the year to pro- mote opportunities for all school clubs. Page N inety-Seven Junior The largest club at Shortridge is undoubtedly the Junior S.P.Q.R., composed of students in Latin and Caesar classes. Keeping such a big organization under control is a big job, but Miss Mary Emily Dodson sees that the members carry out just what they plan for. Some of the plans included the Liberalia pre- sented in March and the Christmas and Valentine parties. . Page Ninety-Eight S.P.Q.R.

Senior Latin may seem uninteresting to some, but the senior Latin students -the ones in Cicero and Vergil classes-have a way of making it a little more interesting. The Senior S.P.Q.R. is the club We're speaking of, and under the watchful eye of Mrs. Elizabeth Helm, the club gets a lot accomplished. A scrapbook is made each year, and yearbooks given each member. Programs are given during the year, sometimes using Latin readings or songs written in the language of the Romans. The Senior S.P.Q.R. is proud of its many letters of thanks from the organizations it has served. Fiction Club We are members of the Fiction Club . . . If you heard this ditty being sung by Short- ridgers this year, you might have thought it was something written on the spur of the mo- ment. But, the Fiction Club is the only organ- ization around here that has a song of its own- and it's good, too! And, if you think this is the only accomplishment of the F-C, you're wrong. We gained membership in the Fiction Club, which is sponsored by Miss Ruth Armstrong, by writing a short story that passed the grade, During the past year the club held quite a few meetings fmostly party-like get-togethersl and the members also wrote for the Christmas Echo. To wear the silver-and-black shield of the Fic- tion Club is an honor at Shortridge, but it also stands for a lot of fun-and accomplishment. ...- ,...'L- ...keel First row: Monica Lennox, Pam Nolen, Suzie Spiker, Joanie Myers, Patricia Locke, Natalie Graham, Miss Ruth Armstrong isponsorj.

Library Club J If you think the kids who assist in the library during the year don't have fun, you should drop around to one of their club's get-togethers when the student helpers meet with Mrs. Esther Cavanagh and Mrs. Jean Jackson. The Library Club's activities through the year always mean a good time, for the members do their biggest job during the school day. The club tries to see that students realize that the library means more than a substitute for study hall, and helps others to see the necessity for all-around cooperation.

Page Ninety-Nine Biology Club For boys and girls who enjoy scouting around such areas as Bacon's Swamp, Holli- day Park, and the Oaklandon Reservoir in search of first-hand knowledge of natural science, our Shortridge Biology Club offers a splendid opportunity for entertainment and education. In this group students com- pare and discuss their discoveries in the field, and study the lives and important findings of the founders of the science. The sponsor is G. Donald Klopp. Biology Club Cleft to rightjx Johanna Jones Grace Deiibaugh, G. D.

Trips are taken all during the year by the student chemists, and they take in such places as the Water company, the gas works, and attend lectures. William John- son, sponsor, keeps the club activities or- ganized, but the live-wire enthusiasm of the members is the force behind the Chem Club's popularity.

Discussion Group Certainly one of the most unique organ- izations we have at our school is the Dis- cussion Group, which meets every other Monday, under the sponsorship of Mrs. Madge Temperley. This club offered to any of us who had a real interest in current events the opportunity of expressing our views on vital top-ics in informal after-school discussions. In the past season, the group was given a better understanding of modern problems by hearing such well-informed speakers as Gilbert Forbes, and by means of motion pictures. It is always open to interested Shortridgers. Two school members, Bloor Redding and Dan Nyhart, Won the highest honors in their field in a round table discussion held at Indiana University last spring. Mrs. Temperley's group was the only one which won two such awards. Y-Teens A group that is very active in the program for the improvement of school life is the Y-Teens, sponsored by the Y.W.C.A. This club sponsors a coke hour for freshmen, and has held a series of movies and discussions in connection with the History Club. It also presented a program with the Y.W.C.A. on the topic of fashion design. Mrs. Jean Jackson is Y-Teens' school sponsor.

Croquis Club Art at Shortridge has always been top-notch, and one of the organizations which makes it so is the Croquis Club, made up of the art students who want to get better acquainted with their sub- ject. As members of the club, which is sponsored by Miss Jane Messick, we vis- ited the Hoosier Salon at B1ock's, the John Herron Art Institute, and the stu- dios of several local artists, where we observed the work of famous artists and got many pointers for our own artistic endeavors. True Blue This year the True Blue Club was com- posed mainly of oflice hostesses and in case you dontt know who the office host- esses are, they're the attractive, friendly lassies who occupied the desk in the re- ception room of Mrs. Hayden's oiiice in 118. They welcomed outsiders, and were ready to give help to any lost freshman by being the mainstays of the Big Sisters. Besides being ambassadors of good will they sold all kinds of S.H.S. pennants and stickers, assisted Mrs. Hayden in all kinds of paper work and they belonged to the Girls' League. The True Blue Club not only helps out- insiders', too and siders, but it helps helps Shortridge to be a friendlier place in which to spend our time. Croquis Club.

Whether We kid 'em or not, the local Thespians do a good job of bringing top-notch plays to the school- and always put their best efforts into the job. To be a full-fledged member of the local Thespian chapter, the actors and actresses must have earned a number of points through par- ticipation in productions. Each spring an initia- tion is held for the new members. The show must go on -and the Shortridge Thespians al- ways make this hold true.

Girls' Bowling League Strike! was the call that echoed back In the past season, the Shortridge Girl Scouts have been active in the making of pleasure boxes to be sent overseas. These boxes contain children's toys which are in good condition. Several of the girls worked at St. Vincent's Hospital in their spare time. Hikes, campfire parties, and overnight trips consumed some of the Girl Scouts' time. All these outings helped to create a feeling of good will among S.H.S. girls and helped to keep that loyal feeling alive! here from the 34th Street Alleys where the Girls' Bowling League spent their Wednes- day afternoons Hkeeping in shape. Miss Alice Jane Hessler is sponsor of the League, and helps the girls with their tech- nique in bowling. The girls work for points which in turn give them membership in the Philateron Club or toward a S.H.S. sweater or numeral. For a score every time, it's GBL every time!

The project was managed by Shortridge's German Club. This enthusiastic organ- ization has undertaken many activities, all of which have been for the purpose of better understanding and enjoyment of the language and customs of the Ger- man people. Early in the semester the members held a Wiener roast. At Christ- mas time they decorated a school win- dow and had a gay party. They gave a tea for members' mothers in the spring.

Y'es, the men at Shortridge aren't the only athletic- minded people in school who get rewards for their efforts. These active gals be- longed to the Philateron Club-and if you think it was easy to get one of these SH monograms, you're wrong! The Philateron Club is made up of girls who want to participate in soccer, basketball, bowling, volleyball, softball, tennis, and swimming-and have earned 500 points. A thousand points are needed before the girl can win her sweater . . . and with the sweater goes a lifetime S.H.S. athletic pass. Besides being active in girls' sports, the Philateron gals passed out programs at athletic events. The girls also made special scarfs to Wear at the games. The club is sponsored by Mrs. Mary C.

You might think that you were sitting in on one of the Senate sessions in Washington if you happened to visit one of the Shortridge Senateis meetings this year and listened to the junior congressmen debate bills using their Hsenatorial names . . . Jenner, Morse, White, and Green, and so forth. The Senate is the oldest club at the alma mater, begun 'way back when Miss Laura Donnan founded it sixty years ago. Mrs. Annalee Webb Miller is the current sponsor, and keeps the Senators in line as sergeant-at-arms. The Senators have a lot of fun-and accomplish quite a bit in the long run.

Stamp Club Postage stamps are 'beacon lights of history, monuments of heroes, gems of art, disseminators of univer- sal knowledge, records of achieve- ments, and mute witnesses to the rise and fall of empires. This in- scription is included in one of the philatelic displays arranged by the Shortridge Stamp Club. The organ- ization devotes much time to the making of- these exhibits, and in doing so always follows a central theme: famous Americans, National parks, or groups of birds or animals portrayed on the stamps. The club, sponsored by Arthur G. Shull, also hears talks given by adults who are avid stamp collectors like the members.

Our Mighty Satan On a hot, sultry September third, fifty boys met at a certain athletic field, somewhere out on West Forty-third Street. They little dreamed of the fame and laurels that were to be theirs at the end of the long football season ahead. These fifty Short- ridgers, under the expert tutelage of George N. Gale, fused to form one of the greatest gridiron teams ever to represent our school. Rolling undefeated through a nine-game schedule, our Shortridge squad emerged as eighth best in the state. On September 19, five thousand spectators jammed the Beech Grove stadium to see what the true story was. They were treated to a scene of destruction as the Satans smashed to a touchdown in the first seven plays and romped easily to a final 53-0 score over the county champs. Ted Steeg, Rufus Marks, Dudley Burge, Chuck Keever, Bill Ralph, Art Klein, and Jack Tichenor ac- counted for the eight touchdowns, with Tichenor, a lad who was destined for much greater fame, picking up two. The following Friday, six thousand fans turned out at Southport and were greeted with another scoring display which will not soon be forgotten, as the Blue Devils rolled up a 46-0 count, shoving aside the Cardinals with almost equal ease. It was Art Klein, Bob Hall, Ralph Davis, and the sophomore standouts, Rufus Marks and Bill Ralph, who carried the ball across the double stripe into pay-dirt territory. The next week our Blue Devils again demonstrated their power, sinking Anderson by an impressive 41-12 count. After the Redskins drove down to the Shortridge three, the Galemen came storming back, sending Keever, Parr, Klein and Tichenor over. The latter scored eighteen points, to lead the scoring parade. After three games against out-of-town com- petition, the Blue and White was ready for its first inter-city clash, against Washington. This tilt turned out later to be the most disappoint- ing of the great '47 contest, as fifty-iive hundred screaming fans saw the Continentals threaten consistently and finally push over a marker to retire from the field with a 7-0 half-time ad- vantage. Shortridge came back fighting mad in the second canto, unleashing two blinding at- tacks to forge into a 13-7 lead, but the Bogue boys had enough fight left to drive over another marker late in the fourth period. As the final gun sounded, the scoreboard read thirteen apiece. Because of a series of practice injuries Wil- liams, Steeg, Rice, and Thompson were unable to start against our next opponent, the Irish of Cathedral. However, despite a muddy field which greatly handicapped the Shortridge break- away runners, Tichenor, Keever, and Klein man- aged to score, and Leer converted once to give Shortridge a 19-0 victory. Again the Blue Devils tackled out-of-city competition the following week as the squad journeyed to Cincinnati in a renewal of their rivalry with Withrow. This contest was one of the toughest games of the year, and the Satans had to overcome a 7-0 deficit before they emerged on the long end or a 19-7 score. After this accomplishment, most of the three thousand spectators at Manual expected a ter- rific slaughter, but Shortridge used this game as a breather, running up only a 24-0 count.

Fall Heroes KConcluded from page 1122 The increasing enthusiasm of a fine season was unleashed the following Friday, as the Ripple Rockets invaded the Forty-third Street athletic plant. 'Iichenor started it off sprinting sixty yards down the sidelines on the second play from scrimmage. Chuck Keever carried it all the way down for the second Shortridge score as the teams retired at the half. Following the intermission Steeg sliced through for thirty-six yards and points while Tichenor plowed twelve yards for the final marker. A lapse in the Satans' pass defense permitted the Rockets to gain a consolation touchdown. Standing between Shortridge and an unde- feated season was its arch rival from the east side, Technical, unbeaten by a Blue Devil team since 1943. Midway in the first quarter Fred Davis un- corked a thirty-three-yard pass to Gene Rogers, and the latter scampered over untouched as Shortridge revealed to the five thousand rooters the Tech Special. Another aerial attack re- sulted in a five-yard touchdown pass to Evan Parker, and Charlie Keever wound up the day and his high school football career with another tally as the curtain fell on one of the greatest Shortridge seasons in history. Cathedral upset Washington the next day and gave Shortridge undisputed control of the city Page One Hundred Sixteen crown. The Blue Devils also placed Tichenor, Grimmer, Keever, Parker, Horton, and Steeg on the various all-city selections. For Tichenor there was the even higher distinction of a first-string all-state berth. Reserve Football The Shortridge B team, although it dropped five out of its six games, developed some excel- lent material for future varsity squads in last year's up-and-down season. Fred Knute Rouch, completing his twenty-seventh year as a football coach, offered a lineup which starred two crash- ing ends, 'Iom Perrine and Bill Bosson. The re- serve tackle, Jack MacDonald, center, Norman Glick, and halfback, Ike Davis, are prospective talent for the 1948 Blue Devils. V -. Freshmen Football Coach Tom Woods, ably assisted by Roy Ab- erson, tutored a frosh team which failed to round into top form all season long, but which posted two victories in six starts. The coveted Fresh- man Trophy was won by Dave Epstein. Other freshman players who proved outstanding were Frank Unversaw, Kenny Romaine, Dick Cook, and Ward Walker. Reserve team.

Hoosier Madness, Shortridge Style' Blessed with live returning letterwinners and a host of aspiring candidates, Coach Jerry Steiner began basketball practice early in October to mold his hardwood tive for the rugged schedule lying ahead. The Blue Devils looked im- pressive in their first two outings, rolling over Greeniield by a 37-28 count, and Noblesville by a healthy 55-40 margin as Keever and Rogers showed the Way. However, these early successes were short-lived when Southport dropped the locals from the elite ranks with a 35-29 lacing. Undismayed, the Satan quintet, paced by Lambert and Lacy, came back and squelched Shelbyvi1le's defending state champions, 30-25. In the city tournament the following week the Blue Devils really turned the heat on. A first-round conquest of Manual was followed by a surprising 15-point victory over Howe, and then as a climax, the boys in blue edged Washington, 38-36, to give Shortridge its first city tournament crown in history. Keever, Rogers, and Lacy led the assault, and Bill Ralph, sophomore center, began to show his value in con- trolling rebounds. However, the Steinermen couldn't follow it up and proceeded to drop a tough one-point decision to Columbus, 40-39. Back into the win column again, Ralph led the Satans to a 43-36 trimming of Cathedral, and the same boy was outstanding as the Blue Devils rode to an easy 40-19 win over University High of Bloomington. Then a mid-season slump saw Shortridge lose three in a row to arch-rival Broad Ripple, Anderson, and Howe. Dud Burge was the one bright light during this dark period as he garnered a sizable share of the team's points. The Blue Devils broke the losing streak the next week, and continued on the victory trail long enough to pile up a six-game win- ning consistency against tough opposition. It was at this time that the team played its best basketball of the Season. Page One Hundred Eighteen Rogers makes a Hying leap for the ball. Ben Davis produced the first victim as Keever unleashed a 16-point barrage, and Manual, pre- viously beaten by Shortridge in the city tourney, fell again with Burge and Ralph providing the scoring power. Keever was hot again up at Lebanon and his 18 points paced the Satans as they blasted their hosts, 52-45. Next came a sweet 43-37 win over a favored Tech squad. Keever again was unstoppable and he poured in 18 more points to add to his total. To prove that they were the city's leading five, the Stein- ermen piled up an early half-time lead and then stayed off a furious third period rally to dump Donit let those Athenians get the ball! lu..- It's a toss-up in the City Tourney play-offs. Washington again by a slim 37-35 margin. Ralph, now a consistent point-getter, scored 15. Crawfordsville's Athenians, at that time ranked Iifth in the state, invaded the home gym the following week but received an unpleasant wel- come as they bowed, 44-36, to an alert Short- ridge five. Levinson and Rogers divided scoring honors with nine points apiece. However, in the last tilt of the regular season South Side Ft. Wayne were too tough for the Blue Devils as they won going away by a 61-43 reading. Out- standing in defeat was Bill Ralph, who racked up 18 markers for the Blue and White. Which way will it fall?

Under the tutelage of Coach George Gale, the nucleus of next year's varsity team was developed. Promising prospects in- cluded: Jack Axline, Dick Jacobs, Fred Davis, Bill Bosson, Ralph Davis, and Don Ogle. Jack Axline, the high scoring man on the reserve team, was awarded the distinction of being the most valuable reserve player. Reserve Basketball.

Freshman Basketball A look at the ledgers of this year's freshman basketball team would indicate the presence of plenty of material for future winning Blue Devil squads. Coach Tom Woods' boys racked up an impressive record of eleven victories in sixteen starts. The regular starting lineup for the frosh included: Frank Unversaw, Ward Walker, Ward Sexson, Walter Mercer, and Dick Cook. Dick Cook was high-point man for the frosh team. Freshman Basketball.

Ed Gasper, John Wichser, Coach Don R. Knight, Jack Tichenor, Jim Seidensticker. Look At Those Blue Devils Go! The 1948 track team, under the tutelage of veteran coach Don R. Knight, was scheduled to open the season April 9 at Jeff of Lafayette with Seven returning lettermen and a bright future. Following the Jeff meet the thinlies traveled to Bloomington for their only other dual meet, since for five consecutive weeks thereafter their schedule listed the Indianapolis Relays, the City Meet, a quadrangular meet with Howe, Washington, and Manual, the Sectionals, and the State Meet. ' This year's track squad was developed last year by Coach Knight, through a tough season, and of the seven returnees three took blue ribbons in last year's City Meet and all seven won ribbons of some sort, which indicated a wealth of front- line strength. If enough reserve strength Was built up it is very easy to predict that the spikesters followed in the paths of the Shortridge football and basketball squads and annexed the city . . oi' championship. fn ',HY':f' - XI, lx ',' I w 1, , r df X ff' ,ax , If ,f ' 'i , f l M X f 'I X, Cross Country.

Golf, Cross Country In golf the Blue Devil teesters placed second behind the state champ, Tech, in the Broad Ripple Invitational Meet at Meridian Hills. Pete Burkholder, Tom Nunamaker, and Harrison Marsh were outstanding in that match and all showed signs of being tough in the spring season. Other players returning from last year were Dick Pedigo and John Roberts. Also joining the team this season are Jack Leer, senior, and Jim Balch, a promising freshman. Kenneth Peterman coached the golf team. Last fall our cross country team turned in a creditable record, dropping only three meets in eight starts. Under the direction of coach Don R. Knight the Shortridge thinly-clads fin- ished fourth in the sectional and city meets. Baseball Last year baseball returned to Shortridge under the able coaching of Jerry Steiner. 'I'his team was a hot and cold team, winning four of eleven games. This year with a year under their belts the team showed pep in its twelve-game schedule. Returning from last year's team are the follow- ing monogram winners: Fred Davis, pitcherg Gene Rogers, first base, and Dick Fleck and Ronnie Nelson, outfielders. These along with others who saw limited action last year formed a nucleus for the team this year. Intramural Sports This year, under the able leadership of Coach Robert Nipper, the Shortridge Athletic Depart- ment started an extensive intramural program. Last fall the program opened with soccer which, although successful, found no champion because of a lack of teams. As the sports moved indoors, basketball and wrestling shared the limelight. In the basket- ball leagues the Flicks won the Senior loop, and the Dodgers, the Junior edition. The Flicks were Bruce Gaines, George Birt, Bill Karandos, Bob Kenny, Bill Byram, and Jim Lowe. The members of the Dodgers were Jim Kealing, Clarence Deal, Marvin Maguire, Kenny Eiler, and Forest Van- Forester. The wrestling meet produced the following winners: 95 lbs., Ted Schurdellg 105 lbs., Arnold Brown, 112 lbs., Jim Bose, 121 lbs., Dick Bowers, 127 lbs., Ed Dimickg 133 lbs., Phil Boydg 138 lbs., Jerry Schellertg 145 lbs., Dick Talbottg 155 lbs. Phil Vickeryg 165 lbs., Frank Joseg heavyweight, Evan Parker. Paul Dill coached the wrestlers. An added feature of the program was the intramural wrestling meets with other city high schools. The remainder of the year was filled with volleyball, tennis, swimming, softball, and track. Winners in each of the sports were awarded medals at the end of the season, and the first year of the intramural program was termed a success by Coach Nipper.

And Trophy Winners Oh, he's a lettermanfl And no doubt he belonged to that male-only club, the Letter- men's Club, too. This year there were thirty- four members and every letter winner in any sport was eligible to be a member. The club ushered for the senior play in March and sponsored the Lettermen-Faculty basketball game in March as some of their activities. The purpose of this club is to help the Athletic De- partment and the school in all ways possible.

Our Girl Athletes Show Us How It's Done Although the Echo headlines seldom scream news of girls' sports-in comparison to the blaring banners created by the male athletes- Shortridge has carried through a well-organ- ized program of athletics for the better half of our school's population. Soccer opened our girls' intramural sports program on September 16, 1947. The two teams were captained by Evelyn Arnold and Mary Dee Bose. The student chairman for the sport was Delores Thom. Bowling, under the leadership of Joyce Wood, started on September 24 With many particip-ants. In this sport, Edith Yeager, Rita Woolf and Joan Bluestein were outstanding. Advanced and beginning basketball were combined this year, with Mary Dee Bose as student chairman. Lois Walker's team won the tournament with Kay Shannonfs and Yvette Marks' teams as runnersup. Another sport organized was deck tennis with Mary Carol Dressel as chairman. Kay Shannon, Lois Walker, Jane Lemmert, and Joyce Wood were team captains. We girls also played volleyball, With Marilyn McCoy as our chairman, and softball, with Kay Shannon as student leader. Girls' sports activities are under the direc- tion of Mrs. Mary C. Treichler and Miss Alice Jane Hessler. Batter up! All eyes are on the ball. Page One Hundred Twenty-Five Sign Here, Please! 346 EMA? MMM ff My 4' lfqifgz-ff!!
