Pagre Twenty THE REFLECTOR SOUTH WHITLEY, IND., FEB. 2, 1936 No. 1 LADY SENATOR INFLUENCES THE HOUSE. Miss Senator White Has Good Argumentative and Influ- ential Ability. Washington, D. C, Feb. 1.— A bill was intioduced in the House of Representatives by Mr. Carrol Snyder yesterday propos- ing that the votes of women In Congress should count only one- third as much as the votes of men. His argument was based on the fact that men should be at the head of the house by Bibli-- cal law and that women were not skilled and educated for gov- ei ' nment work as much as the men. Miss Prudence White, a lady senator from Indiana, appeared belbre the House with a read.v answer in the form of a debate. She declared that although men are said to be at the head of the house, it was meant only in domestic affairs, and moreover, if the Bible was to be taken as- a standard, tlie women were to be consulted and given proper recognition. Miss White further stated that the women of today are given as thorough education in the ways of government as men. She asserted that women are not as easily bribed as men into political schemes and vices. Sho mentioned several instances of such actions taken by men in our government. When a vote was taken on tliis bill, it was killed. Best Mechanic In State Injured. Thomas Rody, general mana- ger of the South Whitley Ma- chine Works, was seriously in- jured today, when the flywheel on the most powerful steam en- gine in the United States burst into pieces while Mr. Rody was testing its speed. A portion of the wheel passed through his chest, utterly destroying his left lung. Mr. Rody is one of the best mechanics in the state, and all possible aid is being given for his recovery. Noted Missionaries to Speak. Next Wednesday evening at the M. E. Church, Mr. and Mrs. Bayard Craw, two noted mis- sionaries who have just return ed from the Cannibal Islands, will give an illustrated lecture which will be higlily entertain- ing as well as instructive. Mrs. Craw, formerly Miss Dor- othy Ray, is well known as a gifted missionary and has spoken in this section before. She was married ten years ago to Ml-. Craw, an old classmate, after she had converted him. Reverend Craw has had great success among the ferocious savages and has baptized two hundred and fifty of them dur- ing his work on the Cannibal Islands. The couple expect to leave in October for the Fiji Isles for further missionary work. No admission will be charged, but a free will offering will be collected from those present for the benefit of the Islanders. Pag-e Twenty-one THE REFLECTOR Page 2 THE INSPIRATION Feb. 2, 1936 COURT NEWS. Famous Divorce Case Settled — Lawyer Especially Interested. Indianapolis, Ind., Feb. 1. — ■ Norman Miller, of Indianapolis, has in the last few years be- come a noted lawyer, his spe- cialty seeming to be divorce cases. He has finally settled the interesting divorce case be- tween Mrs. Oma Baker and Arthur Baker. Mr. Miller rep- resented the former. He gave one of the most famous rebut- tals ever recorded, and will probably rank with Patrick Henry, Clay and Calhoun. It is rumored that Mr. Miller had strong personal reasons for speaking so ably. Mrs. Baker, or Miss Merrick, for she has been given her maiden name, was formerly a schoolmate of Lawyer Miller at the South Whitley high school. New Oil Wells Found Near South Whitley. Oil wells are being found and established about three miles southeast of South Whitley on a farm owned by Gilbert Graf. Mr. Graf first became inter- ested when he noticed oil on a pond of water and later discov- ered oil in the water of his flowing wells. He made inves- tigation and thought it might be worth his time to put down a well. He has one well working at present. It is producing a very good grade of petroleum in large quantities. Mr. Graf refuses to lease his ground, but is building and es- tablishing the wells himself. By spring he hopes to have a small refinery ready for busi- ness. This will be a great booster and cause a large in- crease in tthe population of South Whitlev. Scientific Farmerette Makes a Fortune. Frances Ulrey, a well-known poultry raiser, has been working on an experiment which has proven to be a success and will undoubtedly make her the most wealthy person in the United States. She has discovered a new tonic which will make chickens grow large very rapidly. Sue experimented with a few of her chickens by giving them the tonic and in two weeks they weighed twenty-five pounds. Miss Ulrey has always lived on a farm since her school days, and her interest in gardening and poultry raising seems to be steadily increasing. She now has a hen, Fluffy Ruffles, which took the prize at t he world ' s fair last summer. The results of her many experiments have at last won for her lasting fame and wealth. SP0R1 SECTION. National Basket Ball League An- nounces Champion. The National Basket Ball League has announced Robert Clapp as their champion. He has led them to victory many times. The team recently play- ed against England ' s well-known Tigers and won bv a score of 58 to 20. Pagfe Twenty-two THE RErLECTOR Feb. 2, 1936 THE INSPIRATION Page LOCAL MAN MAKES SCIEN- TIFIC DISCOVERY. Will Soon Be Known the World Over. Dr. F. E. Hull, druggist of South Whitley, has at last com- pleted a very strenuous labora- to.y experiment and has per- fected a most effective rat poison. Dr. Hull went to his labora- tory last Tuesday and spent three days of very deep and concentrated study. He came forth this morning with his dis- covery. He refuses to tell the details of the work as yet. Dr. Hull graduated from the South Whitley high school in 1922 and from the Ohio State School of Pharmacy in 1926. He has since been proprietor of the drug store formerly owned by Dr. D. C. Scott. COMMENCEMENT ADDRESS. To Be Delivered by a Former South Whitley Student. The Senior Class of the South Whitley High School feels very much honored to have a former student of this school, in the person of Mabel Mishler, to de- liver their commencement ad- dress. Miss Mishler was a membei of the Class of Twenty-two and graduated with high honors of scholarship. Today she is the President of the Oxford College for Women. She has a repu- tation of being an excellent speaker. It is only through her loyalty and her love for her high school that they are able to ob- tain her services. FROM SUNNY ITALY.

No, she replied, raising to him her big eyes, that looked like violets with dew on them, I ' m not hungry, but please, mayn ' t I see daddy for just a minute?

Jail keeper, it was always daddy ' once Avhen I ' as sick, he ne er had his clothe such a nurse — Please, Oh, you must let me see him. As she talked. Truth ' s eyes filled Avith tears. It would have taken a heart much harder than that of the old jailer not to be touched by the pleading of the sericmsly sweet girl. Perhaps, too, the picture the girl made, Avith her mass of ectpper-eolored hair, lai ' ge, sericuis eyes, and droop- ing cupid ' s bow of a nunith, had something to do with his surrender. At any rate, he motioned for the girl to follow as he started away. McFarlan Avas sitting on a bench in his cell. Humped over, his face buried in his hands, his one foot tapping on the flood, he did not look up as the two entered. Daddy, Truth breathed. Slipping past her escort, she ran towards him Avith arms outstretched. At the sound of her voice, McFarland wheeled around. The look of utter hopeles.sness and dejection fell from him like a mantle. Rising to his feet, he folded Ti-uth in his embrace, murmuiang tender Avords of endear- ment in her ear. Tiger McFarlan, the ci-inunal. had vanished; Wells McFarlan, the father, reigned in his stead. Both seenied oblivious of the old man ' s presence. Much as he hated to do it, he Avas forced to remind the girl that her ten mhiute visit Avas over. With a farcAvell hug. Truth tui ' ued from her father. Her face Avas uoav radiant. It ' s all right, daddy. she cried in silvery tones of ho]: e. I Avon ' t let them hang you. They just shan ' t. They ' ll have to hang me too, if they do. The tAvo, Avarden and visitor, had not gone far Avhen they heard a groan. Oh, cried Truth with horror. That Avas Daddy. Come, let ' s go back. Hurry ! ' ' Truth ' s instinct had not misled her. Lying on the floor of the cell, writhing in pain, lay her father ' . At sight of her, he tried to hide his suf- fering. Quickly she ran to him and put his head in her lap. Oh, Daddy, Daddy. she moaned, the radiance and joy all gone from her, don ' t die and leave me alone. Its-all-right-Truth. he gasped haltingly, using hei- words of a fcAV minutes before. They ' d have killed me and it ' s better to go this Avay. I ' m happy, girl. Don ' t feel too badly, for I ' ll be better off. Look out for my gii ' l, Warden. and his eyes sought those of the jailer as though to find an ansAver there. The Warden cleared his throat and Avhen he answei-ed. his voice was husky Avith emotion. I ' ll take keer of hei ' . leFarlan. he said and then that lump in his throat choaked him and he left the cell. Gradually, McFarlan ' s huge form grcAV (|uiet. His eyes opened and as they fell on Truth, he smiled. Page Porty-one S9 THE REFLECTOR K 2ZZI Good-bye, Ti-uth, he A iiispered. ' ' I ' m i oiii ' noAV. His eyes closed and Tiger MeFarlnn, notoi-ious outlaw, was dead. Truth rose, dry-eyed and wan. She stai ' ted towai ' d the door, and ju.st as she reached it, she turned. Yes, Daddy, she nuirnuu ' ed. It ' s better and I ' ll be brave. As the daughter of Wells ] IcFarlan stood alone with hei- deatl, a sud- den ray of sunlight pierced the dull gloom of the cell, bringing with it a pi ' oinise of brightei- davs. MARY CONNERS, ' 24. Stlj mrB— Any Kmh VAAj, some peo])le seem to be in a huri ' y this morning! Can ' t you 7]] see any one or do you need specs: ' I ' at O ' Coiniors glanced up (|uickly and her eyes encountered the mii ' lhful glance of Jack Strong, wlio had fallen into step be- side hei- ill headlong flight across the cam])us. Pat was always late, and she had to rush to reach her class on time, although she had never been known to be tardy to class and was a very bril- liaid student. Why, Hello Jack, gee I didn ' t see you! You see, as usual. I ' m late and I was in such a dreadful hurry and, forgive me, won ' t you? )li, yes, willingly, respcnided this very handsome young man. Say Pat, he resunu ' il as they hurried along, Have you wi ' itten that crazy old English theme that is due tomorrow 1 ' ' Why yes! Haven ' t you? Xo, I should say 1 haven ' t. I simply cant, and you know I can ' t. Well, Jack Strong, and assiuning a mock gravity Avhich did not at all match her mirthful eyes, she said, and just to think that I should ever live to see the day when you would adndt that a mere girl could get ahead of you on anything, and — Oh, cut it out, Pat, have a little nu ' i ' cy won ' t you? All the fellows have been razzin ' me till I ' m nearly crazy now. Here the girl interi ' upted him to enter a nearby building. I would be vei-y glad to help you Jack, that is, if 1 could, and you wanted me to, but right now I have French as you know. Would you? Say, that ' s sporting of you! Meet me at jMartin ' s foi- lunch and we ' ll talk it ' ovei-. What say? The girl nodded and hni ' riedly entered the class-room, the last one to arrive. However, the Prof was mercifully late. She wa greeted by a chorus of girlish voices calling, Hello Pat, to which she resi)onded in her most charming manner, which was very charming indeed. Pat, lu ' operly speaking, Patricia, was well liked by all who knew hei ' . Those who called themselves her ])ersonal friends A ere envied by all to whom that privilege was ileiiied. lev Irish wit, her love of fun, and her daring had led her into many serious sci ' apes at school, but llie same win- ning personality had as readily retrieved her. Jack proceeded on his way to class, but his mind was far, far away from mathemafics. He Avas greeted by a biimdi of his Frat pals who yelled, Welcome to our city old man. How ' s the theme writing today? Behold our budding journalist. F ge rorty-two THE REFLECTOR In desperation Jack hurled his books at them, and tried to escape the answering volley of books, ink liottles, and other miscellaneous articles hurled in his direction. English vas the bane of Jack ' s existence, and every one knew it. Of all his studies, he hated it the worst, and he Avas constantly the subject of much good natured ridicule. Assuming a very superior air he responded, that ' s all right. Just you wait until you see my theme. It sure is a peach! Oh! yes, we all know she ' s a peach, this from an exceedingly witty member of the bunch. Blushing furiously, Jack replied, Aav! You guys shut up, here comes Grand-dad, referring to the aged professor of mathematics who was then seen approaching the room. The old gentleman had been christened Grandad, out of pure affection because he was the most beloved member of the Avhole faculty. As recitation began, Jack and Pat in thi ' ir respective class-rooms, be- came very serious and settled down to the hard grind before them with very determined expressions. At noon Jack made a wild dash for Martin ' s and, ari ' iving there, com- posed himself for a long wait. True to his anticipations, Pat Avas late, in fact she was very late. Arriving smiling and breathless from her walk, she gi ' eeted him ef- fusively and started talking at once. Oh, Jack! I ' ve the dandiest plot all worked out for your theme, she cried, and stopped to see the effect of her hurried words. Have you? Good! What is it? Come on, tell a fellow, as Pat re- mained silent and tried to regain her composure. This was an exceedingly difficult feat for her to perfoi ' m. for no matter how hard she tried she could never be very dignified. Just now, her wind-flushed cheeks, sparkling blue eyes, and her whole lovely face framed in crisp black curls, Jack thought he had never seen her look lovelier. She then told him her plan and hastily sketched the plot for him on a piece of note paper. Finally after eagerly discussing everything in detail of the plot she explained, Jack, I ' m late for class, what will I do? That ' s easy, as yours truly doesn ' t have any classes for two hours, let ' s go for a walk. That evening Jack rushed into the Frat house and seemed very much pre-occupied. Hastily seating himself at a desk he started Avriting. Some of the fellows who were gathered in groups around the room be- came extremely curious and accordingly wandei ' ed over to see Avhat he was doing. He} ' , Jack, got your theme yet? from one of them. An indistinct murmur was their only response. Jack Avent on busily writing. Oh, I say, old man , ])ut he got no further for Jack said, Say, darn it! you fellows, clear out and let me alone and I ' ll soon have that Avonderful theme vou ' i ' e raving about, as he jumped angrilv to his feet. He resumed his seat after this outburst, only to stare into space. After a long sign he murmured, Gee, she ' s a dear, and dreamily resumed his work. EDITH PENCE ' 23.

Slie tui ' iU ' U her foot- steps toward the little corner store, and when she ca.iiie in front of the little, mean-looking ' house, her heart nearly burst h pity. There weie ragged curtains at the windows, but even though they were neai ' ly worn out, one could tell that some one had tried to keep them clean. By this time Arbelle ' s car appeared, and she innnediately went home. On reaching home she found hei ' mother and entrusted her with her neM ' plans. After reading the lettei ' she heartily agreed to everything and they immediately set to Avork. First, they prepared cdothir.g for each of the family and then sent an order to the grocery. Next was to get the toys for which Sannnie had asked for so timidly. Arbelle would not leaA ' e this task to any one else, so the next morning she arose eai-ly and went shopping, coming home laden with all kinds of toys imaginable. Everything was wi-ai ped and in the l)askets I ' eady for Cliristmas eve. Arbelle Avas vei-y happy and excited. It seemed a long time to wait — one more day. Finally it was time to take the gifts to Sanuiiie ' s house. Packing the baskets in the car, she started on her journey. When she reached the little house, the snow Avas falling thick and fast, so she ordered the chauffeur to take everything in at once. When Arl)elle knocked, a little Avorn lady opened the door. Arbelle called to the man to bring everything right in, but the little Avoman stopped her, saying that she surely must be at the Avrong place. After assuring her and explaining the real meaning of Avhat they wei-e doing, the gifts were brought in and mi- wrapped. Such a happy, Avonderful time, in that little tAvo-i ' oom, meanly-fur- nished house. Arbelle entirely forgot time or place in her great excite- ment and joy. It seemed to her that she had ahvay.s known this loveable little Avoman and these beautiful, Avell-behaved children. Finally she I ' cmembered that she must go home, and bidding the happy family good-bye, lu ' omised to visit them again soon. TIIELMA RICKARD. ' 24. THE FATE OF DOUG.

A sad ex])ression of loneliness and disappointment veiled her pretty face, but back of that sad look was a hopeful smile that showed a sunny disposition in si)ite of all the ill-treatment that she had received. Oh! thei ' she goes, girls; our new junior. She says her name ' s Grace. I don ' t like her ' cause she thinks she ' s smart. Just look how she di-esses, said one of the junioi ' s. Yes, and don ' t you know, said another, We had a class meeting last evening and the class matron forgot that we A ei ' e to have it, and didn ' t come, so we planned a party and decided not to have a chaperon. I asked the new gii ' l what she thought of it, and she had tlu ' nerve to tell me that hei ' ]iarents did not permit her to go to unchapei ' oned parties, and besides, she (lid not think it Avas right to deceive a teacher in that Avay. Noav if she goes and s])oils it, AVe ' ll have to have a pokey old party and the teachers won ' t U ' t us dance. Aw, kid, (|uit talkin ' about it. I got somethin ' good to tell you, if you ' ll listen, said anothei- girl. The other girls Avere anxious to hear it, so she began : I saw in the paper last night that the ex-governor of Massachusetts Page rorty-slx K THE REFLECTOR and his family are going to move to Maywood. Tliey were to move last month, but were delayed and now they are coming this very Aveek! Oh, broke in Marjorie. Well, now, Avait till I finish. They ' ve got a boy and a gii ' l that are both going to school. Of course, the boy ' s in college, but the girl ' s only six- teen, and a junior I ' ll bet. Now, girls, won ' t that be great to be in a class with Governor Hendricks ' daughter? I ' ll tell you we ' ll have to treat her like a wax doll, ' cause you know it will be Avorth something to have her as a friend. She ' ll be the most popular girl in school, I knoAv. Yes, yes, said Eleanor, speaking of making friends Avith her makes me think of something. This evening as I came past the office, the principal stopped me and told me to prepare a speech for a program tomorroAV morn- ing. What kind of a program, I couldn ' t imagine, so I asked him. He said that it Avas a secret, and Avouldn ' t tell me anything except that I should speak on ' Being Friends to Our Classmates. ' I ' m almost scared to death, because I never could make speeches; especially on such a subject as that. 1 must stop at the library to get some speech material, so good-bye. The girls AA ' alked on, laughing at Eleanor ' s unprepared speech, because she ahvays pretended that it Avas so hard for her to face an audience, Avhen she knCAv that she could do it Avithout any embarrassment or fear. The next morning the teachers seemed quite Avorried about the pi ' o- gram. One could see l)y their actions that something Avas not going right. When fifteen minutes had dragged by sloAvly, the principal stepped out upon the stage, folloAved by a middle-aged man and his Avife, Avho took seats at the back of it; the ncAV junior folloAved them and did likcAvise. The students all laughed Avhen they saAv her join those on the back of the stage, but Avhen the principal introduced the trio as Governor Hendricks, his Avife, and daughter, a look of disappointment Avas seen on their faces, (the juniors especially) for they knew Avhat ]Mr. and ' Mvs. Hendricks thought of them as a class. When Eleanor ' s name Avas called, she could do nothing except ask Grace Hendi ' icks ' forgiveness, and that is Avhat she did do. The junioi ' s shoAved their approval l)y loudly clapping their hands, and none did so as heartily as those Avho had rejected Grace Hendricks as a friend, just a fcAv daA s before. CARRIE A.

Fag ' e rifty-one THE REFLECTOR 2 2 BURTON CONKLING An excellent Basket Ball Coach. He believed he had material from which he could choose a team that would win the tournament. He has convinced us. ROBERT CLAPP ( ' a])t;iiii and Ceutoi ' . Bob piloted our team this year with a never- say-die spirit. Although suffering from two sprained ankles during the term, he steered our team on to victory, and won tor himself the honor of being pivot man on the first all- district team. As Captain and center, Bob has made the best record ever established by an athlete of S. W. H. S. His schoolmates and friends wish him success in his college ath- letics. He is a Senior. GLEN LEHMAN Forwai ' d. Although he did not get into the game until the second semester, he showed what a good forward should do. He has made the best showing of a forward in his basket ball career that has been made in South Whitley High School. He is a .Junior. Page Pifty-two THE REFLECTOR FRED FOSLER Forward. He did not get into tlie game until the second lialf, but he was a whirlwind. He was one of the main factors in winning the Tournamenr at Fort Wayne March 3rd and 4th. He is a Sophomore. NORMAN MILLER Otiard. Norman was one of the best back guards that South Whitley has ever produced, and he certainly showed us by his record at the Tour- nament what he could do. He saved the team from many defeats, and we wish him the best of luck in his college athletics. He is a Senior. CHARLES DAY Cliinvd. This is the first year he has played Basket Ball, but he has proven what a peison can do in a single playing season. He had the bad luck of having his nose broken, but that did not discourage him. He is a Junior. Page rifty-tliree THE REFLECTOR JAMES MATSON Sul) Forwai ' d. He played a very good game of Basket Ball all the time this year, considering his size and lightness, but they can all tell you that he was light there. We hope to hear more ot him next year. He is a Sophomore. He is just a knows how to were too big lo more Irom him a Junior. VON COOK Sill) l ' ' or ai ' (l. ittle tellow, but he certainly landle a Basket Ball. None him. We should hear much n athletics next year. He is CARROL SNYDER Sub Otiai ' d. He did not get to show liis ability in many games this year, but all can testify that he was an all ' round player. He is a Senior. Pag-e rifty-foiir THE REFLECTOR The Basket Ball Team of 1921-1922 made the best showing ' of any team that South Whitley High School has ever produced. There were three players Avho reported from last year ' s team: Lehman, Miller and Clapp. The second team also turned out strong this year, liut Avere very light, and did not give much opposition in practice. Practice started the first week in October and on October 7th we had our first game with Washington Center. In this game we found out a large numjjer of our faults, and as only two of the regulars from last year could l)lay, we saw that every man on the team would have to do his best. Ml ' . Conkling, our coach, told us and showed us everything possible a))out basket ball, but we did not seem to get along very well. There did not seem to be very much school spirit in the High School at this time. We played a heavy schedule during- the first semester, but Avon very fcAV of the games, consequently our spirits began to Avaver. At the beginning of the second semester of the year, Lehman and Fosler Avere added to the team. We lost the first game after they returned, but this put the fighting spirit in us. We then Avon six games in succes- sion, including the one A -ith Colundjia City, our old rival. At this time Ave began to have a larger attendance at our games and every one seemed to be satisfied Avith the team. On March 3d and 4th Ave Avent to the District Tournament. The busi- ness men of the toAvn paid our hotel l)ills, something that had never been done before. We did not have much hope of A inning tliis tournament, but Ave all decided to fight as hard as Ave could, and tliat is 1hc s nr with Avhich Ave Avon the District Tournament, defeating Kendalhille, wlio liad claimed the championship for the five preceding years. During the next Aveek several of the meml)ers of the team were ill, ))ut on Fi ' iday morning avc started to Lafayette to the Regional, and here, haA ' ing draAAm a very fast teani and being Aveak fi ' om sickness, avc Avere defeated by AtAvood by a score of 30-10. Special emphasis must be placed upon the athletics of 1921-1922, and Ave hope that in the following years South Whitley High School will keep up the pace Ave have estal)lished this year.

Pag-e Fifty-five THE REFLECTOR Octol)er 7. South AVliitley vs. Washington Center. Here 17-20. This was the first game ot the season. It was a very good game. Everybody played basket ball. This game pointed out the defects and prepared us for the games to come. October 14. South Whith ' v vs. . ortli . rancliester. There 9-34. There were only two regulars from last year in this game, and it being the first game of the season away from home, we were swamped. The game was i-ough and our players were light, so we had no chance. ()et()l)er 22. Sotith Whitley vs. Huntington. Here 14-33. Our boys played a good game of basket ball, but the Huntington boys took a lead in the first half that we could not overcome. Our team work was developing last, however, as the next game was to prove. ()etoI)er 28. South WhitU ' V vs. Akron. Tliere 2S-12. One of the fastest games of the season was played at Akron. We started our team work in the first half, and our signals working fine, we were in no danger any of the time. Clapp started his old-time style in this game, making 20 out of the 28 points for his team. XovciiiIht 2. South Whitley vs. Washington Center. Here 12-13. This was the best game that was played on the home floor this year. Both teams displayed the best of team work and guarding. This was the first overtime game of the season. Everybody fought from the start of this game till the finish. November 4. South Whitley vs. Chnrubuseo. Thei-e 12-3(i. Due to the fact that most of the players were not feeling well for this game and having to ride more than twenty miles over muddy roads and having played one game already this week, we were badly defeated. November 11. South Whitley vs. Harlan. Thei ' e 20-:!0. This was a good game and very well played, though rough at times. There were a number of fouls made on both sides, and the team thinks that they made a good showing, considering the weather, mud and snow. November 19. South Whitley vs. Chtirubusco. Tlei ' e 41-19. In this game the team learned a few new tactics and played up to their own form. Matson was high scorer with 18 points to his credit, while Clapp was second with l.S points. Miller also played a very good game. November 25. Sotith Whitley vs. Huntijigton. There 22-30. In this game we stacked up against a very strong team, but most of the players played well, although it is said we had a floor walker. December 2. South Whitley vs. Fort Wayne. There lS-27. This game proved to us that we could play basket ball, and although we were defeated, it put new life into us. There were over fifty fouls called on both sides in this game, but it seemed as if Clapp could nor make them. Matson and Cook played a very good game at forwaid, while Miller and Day put up a very strong defense. December 10. South Wliitley vs. I ' )rt Wayne. Here 22-15. This game proved to be our crowd gatherer this season. There was a very large crowd at the game, and since we won, it assured us a crowd for the rest of the season. Clai)p was high-point maker for his team, making 10 points, while Matson and Cook tied for second witli H points each. Pag-e rifty-six THE REFLECTOR S December 16. South Whitley vs. Monroeville. There 20-21. This was our second overtime game of the season. Both teams displayed splendid team work, and the first half ended 3 to 3, and the second half ended 15 to 15. During the overtime period Snyder played in place of Matson. who had his ankle sprained. Decenilx ' r 23. South Whitley vs. Akron. Here 23-12. Akron was again defeated by a fairly large score. In this game our team devel- oped a style of basket ball that stood them in good need the second half of the sea- son and also at the tournament. Clapp was high scorer for his team, making 21 out of the 23 points. Januai ' y ( . South Whitley vs. North Manchester. Here 13-24. This was the roughest and the most despised game of the season. North Man- chester came to South Whitley to win at any cost, and during the entire first half roughed the game as much as they could. Our boys took it the first half without an effort to do the same, but when they did it the second half, we could not stand for it, and we did the same. It finally ended in a fight, the crowd gathering on the floor. There were still two minutes to play, and the referee called it a forfeit game. January 13. South Whitley vs. Wolf Lake- There 1(3-20. Lehman and Fosler were added to the team in this game and made a very good showing. Day received a broken nose and Matson was put at forward, while Lehman took Day ' s place at guard. It was a very fast and exciting game, considering the damp place in which we had to play and the dirt floor. January 20. South Whitley vs. C()hnul)ia City. There 31-19. In this game we kept up the saying that Columbia City could be beat. It was a very fast game and rough at times. Doyle was put out on personal fouls. Lehman was high scorer for the team, making 13 points, while Clapp was second with 12. January 27. South Whitley vs. Harlan. Here 53-25. This was a very one-sided game and ended disastrously for the visitors. They could not, stop the team work and offensive of the locals. Clapp scored 21 points, Lehman 14 and Matson 12. I ' ebruary 4. South Whitley vs. Hudson. Here 62-17. This also proved a one-sided game. Hudson played Washington Center the night before and defeated them 19 to 16. Our team work was faultless and our scoring perxect. Clapp scored 26 points, Fosler second with 14, and Matson third with 10. February 11. South Whitley vs. Bippus. Here 26-22. Bippus was one of the strongest teams in this section this year. They had been beaten only once in twenty-four games, and expected to win. We upset the dope bucket and turned the tables on them. Every one played a good game. They made threats about getting us when we returned the game. Febrvuiry 14. South Whitley vs. Washington Center- Here 25-10. This proved the statement that Washington Center was a name. It was said before that we could not beat them under any circumstances, but we did. Clapp did not start the game, although before the first half was ended he resumed his position at center and Fosler went to forward. It was a fast game and nobody ' s game until after the first half, when our team displayed their lightning-like team work. February 17. South Whitley vs. Columbia City. Here 32-12. We put joy into the hearts of the basket ball fans by defeating Columbia City Pag-e Fifty-seven THE REFLECTOR lor the llnrd straight game. Everybody did their best. Fosler was again put out of the game on account of iiersonal fouls. February 21. Soutli Whitley vs. l ' .ii)|)us. Tlici-e 4-54. We sent our second team to Bipjius because tlie parents of the regulars re- fused to let us go there to play on account of I he threats made. Our second team did their best, but were too light. Fel)iniary 24. South Whitley vs. Wolf Lake, llciv l!)-24. This was the last game before going to llie tournament at Fort Wayne. March 3d and 4th. It seemed as if almost all the players were dead on their leet. Fosler played a star game, but he could not do it all without help, consequently we lost by a large scoi-e: but it must also be said that i)robably if we had won this game we might not have pulled through our first game at the tournament. Maveh : . South Whitley vs. Monroeville at Foft Wayue, 1!)-1(5. This was the hardest fought game in the whole tournament. It was a fight from start to finish. (Tapp played in this game with two sprained ankles, but managed to gel around, Lehman was chief scorei-, making 10 points. March 4. South Whitley vs. Wawaka at Fort Wayne (iiioiaiint ) 22-12. This was a closely contested game in the first half. Fosler was unable to play at all in this game, and Clapp h id to be relieved on account of his sprained ankles. March 4. St)uth Whitley vs. Washington ( ' enter at Fort WayiU ' (afternoon) 14-8. This game was also a close one in the first half, but they could not break up our team work and scoring. farch 4. South Whitley vs. K. ndallville. Finals l(i-i:i. The winning of this game was more than we had hoi)ed lor, but we went in it with a detei-mination to fight the whole way through. Fosler guarded Sawyer, Kendanvilie ' s star, so that he was able to make only two goals, while in the pre- ceding games he made eleven goals. Lehman, Miller and Day also worked together in defensive games that Kendallville could not break through. Clapp played up the Iloor and did most of the scoiing, making 12 out of 16 points. March 11. Sotith Whitley vs. Atwood, at Fafayeite, l()-;5(). Here we struck a team that must ha e had us outclassed, because ihey beat us. None of us were in any condition to play in this game on account of sickness.

A spirit of enthusiasm prevailed in the girls ' athletics such as has never been mani- fested before. In the oi ' ganization of the s(iuad, Lural)elle ]Martin was chosen as captain, with Miss Perkins as coach- The excellent team work Avas due largely to their training, but it seemed that all the girls were naturally stars. ()ur first game was played Avith the Churulnisco girls at Chui ' ubuseo. This Avas a very close and interesting game, Init on account of the very small floor, our girls Avere at disadvantage and lost by a close score. We lost our next game at Columbia City. The next game, Avhich Avas Avith the Bippus gii ' ls Avas a decisive victory for our team. The return of the Bippus girls Avas a thrilling game, but the visitors Avere a little too quick for the home team and the final score stood 9-10 in favor of Bippus. The closing game of the season Avas played Avith the Colundna City girls at South Whitley. The Columbia City team had Avon most of her contests and so our girls thought that the odds Avere Avith the visitors. HoAvever, they entered the game Avith a positive determination and soon started scoring, and kept the lead throughout the game. The final score Avas 12-20. Winning over Columbia City Avas a great triumph and served as a grand climax for the season. Xo mendier of the team Avill graduate this year, so this leaves the girls ' athletics in a promising state for the year 1922-1923. PAULINE FLECK ' 23. Page rifty-nine M THE REFLECTOR p fla BY.

We, the Senior ( lass of Xineteeu Hundred Twenty-two, wish to em- body herein some advice to be used by all undei ' classmeii, especially the Fi-eshmen : 1 — Don ' t try to iiiiilale a Senior by making -our hands screech on the banisters. You can ' t get away with that stuff. 2_Ahvays pai ' k your Si)eannint and Hla(d .jack on the sole of your shoe before entering 1 he school house. 3— Don ' t forget what the assistant busiiu ' ss manager said about writing lots of pictures and parodies for the Aininal. Page Eighty THE REFLECTOR 4 — Don ' t go to Latin class siuiling ; Ave will count you a hypocrite. 5 — Don ' t carve your name on the desks; that privilege is granted to a few Seniors only. 6 — Freshmen boys shall not smoke anything but cornsilk or coffee. You are far too young to smoke cigarettes. 7 — Be true to your own nature.
