It was the hunt' ing for ideas, writing, soliciting, and selecting material, planning the book, figuring expense, managing business, typewriting, rewriting burned Calendars, and other laborious tasks of the strenuous year that has placed them in this pitiful state. We wish to thank those business men who have their advertisements in this volume. To those who have contributed material, assisted with the typewriting, or helped in any way, and especially for the assistance of the Faculty we extend our thanks. We have made our book the largest Reflector yet produced. We have at- tempted to use different ideas and novel plans, and to employ material worthy of your attention. The success of our work is left for you to judge.

'J ,':I -' 'v HISTORY OF OUR SCHOOL OUTH WHITLEY HIGH SCHOOL had its beginning in 1886 in what is now a part of the Grip Nut Company building. Before that time students had taken whatever subjects they pleased, there being no credits given to count toward graduation. However, when Superintendent Naber came, he provided for enough courses to be offered and the right kind to make it possible for students to graduate. It took only three years to complete the course they then offered. At the same time that the high school was instituted, plans were being formed for the building of a new school, since the old building was condemned. Prior to this time, Trustee James Arnold had built a new brick school house in each of the districts so there could be no objection to building the new high school in South Whitley, which was at that time a thriving community still a part of the township. A careful study of high school buildings was made, and many surrounding schools were visited in an effort to find one as convenient and as nearly suited to our needs as possible. Such a one was found at Toledo and used as a pattern for ours. The ground for the new school house was broken early in the spring of 1887 and the building, completed at a cost of ten thousand dollars, was ready for occupation at the beginning of the school term. The large new building was regarded with much pride by all the surrounding country, and at the time of its erection it was greatly superior to the average buildings. In 1890 two students graduated, constituting the first graduating class. Since those times we have wonderfully expanded. At the time it was erected, it stood in a field, now the town has grown all about it. One teacher constituted the faculty, now eight full time teachers and one partftime teacher is employed. The number in the graduating classes has increased from two to fortyffour. Under Suf perintendent Tapy the course was extended to four years, and gradually new subjects were added to our curriculum, giving each student a better opportunity to develop his individual talent, and other lines such as athletics, debating, plays, etc., were made possible. To accommodate such expansion, our building was remodeled and a house across the street was purchased. Although we have grown to love our old S. W. H. S. because of the pleasant hours and dear friendships made there, we realize there is a great need for a new building, and hope that in the near future it will be possible to-, erect a new buildf ing to which we can point with as much pride as did the students of '87 to our pres' ent building. -Florence Harley, '26.

With athletics, work in music, class plays, Staff work, public speaking and other activities, the year was kept very busy. Although handif capped by lack of space, the School has progressed rapidly. New subjects have been added to the curriculum and a lively interest has been manifested in every line of work. 5 In music, especially, a great advance has been made. The formation of the fine large School Band, as the outstanding achievement of the year, is a great benefit to the town and School. The combined Glee Clubs made themselves known to the public by the annual Concert and by The China Shop. The orchestra, also, has done commendable work. Public speaking has taken a prominent place this year. A debating society was organized and oratoricals were again emphasized. The record for the year's athletics is so satisfactory that this season will be long remembered. The teams have worked tirelessly and have established a reputation of which we are justly proud. An increasing interest in track was taken this year, as shown by the amount of work and the number of contestants. The Seniors have been in charge of several entertainments which they brought to our town. The two class plays, Honor Bright and Daddy Long-Legs, showed the in' terest and ability of the students in dramatical work. A class in Bible study, given in relation to the Y. M. C. A. work, was organized under the instruction of Rev. Tacoma. There was an organized Latin Club this year. Our School was well represented in Latin contests. The year was climaxed by the cleverly planned juniorfSenior Reception, follow' ed by the baccalaureate sermon and the Commencement exercises, which were held on May the fourteenth. Altogether, we can say that S. W. H. S. has gone forward in every respect. and has been heartily supported by the public lllllllllllllllllllllllll IIIHIIIHIIlllllllllllllllllllllll llllllllll I IIIIHIIIII ll Illlllll Illlll lllllll Il I l I U 1 I YS The Reflector g i A -f i A A 7 A g f g x Page8 THE GRADUATING CLASS T is with regret and reflection that the class of 1925 leaves these halls of learning for the encounters of the world for which they have been preparing themselves. During the past four eventful years this class has squarely met every obstacle and has tried to perform all its duties and uphold the traditions and standards of the school. This class of fortyffour members is by far the largest Senior Class South Whitley has ever known. It may be safely said that the class possesses a corresf ponding amount of ability and talent, which combined with an abundance of energy, makes the class an active group of students. As they look back over the four brief years of their High School career, can they forget what a bright and shining Freshman Class they were? They were an exceptional classgthe largest in size in the history of the school. They entered into basket ball, track, music, and oratoricals, ranking high in each, At the end of their first year many dropped from the ranks, thinking themselves ready for their lives' work. The next year they returned as Sophomores. They could then look back to the freshies and see why the upper classman and-yes, even the teachers laughed at them when they were in that class. A 'few of their class helped the Juniors in their play which was a success. I As Juniors their number was offset by some who left to enter upon the happy career of Matrimony. Their play provided funds for the reception given to the Seniors, the crowning event of the whole year. In the last year they brought lectures, musicals, and various entertainments to the public. In their estimation they feel that at least some of them will be governors of the different States and some are even capable of. being the First Person of the Land. The smaller but very able classes which are to follow the class of '25, may look to this group for precedent and guidance. May they fulfil the position well! To you, from fallen hands, we throw W The torch. Be yours to hold it high!

Our band numbered thirtyfsix. The place was new to many of us, and several days were spent in getting acquainted. In due time the class or' ganized with Mr. Albert as class advisorg Florence Harley, president, Herman Wien- er, vicefpresidentg and James Remington, secretaryftreasurer. We lost one member during the year, but the number was made up when Roy Stith joined us. After an appreciated vacation, we again gathered at the same building to re- new our studies, and proud to be given the title of Sophomores. Ten of our class' mates had grown weary and tainted by the wayside, but the remaining twentyfsix struggled along gallantly. This year we elected Mr. Wright class advisor, Florence Harley, president, Herman Wiener, vicefpresident, Roy Stith, secretaryftreasurer. In the fall of 1924 we again gathered at the school building. This year our band numbered twentyfsix. The class organized with Miss Whitehorn, class advisf org Herman Wiener, president, Howard Merrick, vice-president and Cleo Hile, sec- retaryftreasurer. At times the way has seemed rocky, but we have always lived up to our motto Climb though the rocks be rugged, and have come out of it smiling. -Ernestine Wilkin, '26, 'S- lllll Hllllllllllll ll I I Il I Hill I HI I illl IIIiIIHIIIIlIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllll llIIIllIIIllIIIllIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIlllllllllllllllllllllll llllllllllllllll I llllllllllllllllll IIIIIIIIIIIXIIIIXIIIIII The Reflector Page 25 . , A-'L' Y' iw, 'J vi -T-V i Y' ii AQ- AJ vi THE MEMBERS FGURTH RGW Howard Merrick, Earl Goff, Herbert Tressler, John Trier. james Remington, Cecil Austin, Lewellyn Myers, Harold Knepple, Mary Walter, Florence Harley SECOND Row h Berniece Mentzer, Florence Brower, Myrtle Bricker, Edith Earlywine, Cleo Hile, Emma Pook, Ernestine Wilkin, Miss XVhitehorn ffsdvisorj.

Most of us were not acquainted even with the building and, to our embarrassment and the upper classmen's amusement, sometimes we got lost. But we were soon able to find our way around the building. After a time we organized as a class and elected Robert Feagler, president, Leonard Bailey, vicefpresidentg Harry Kinsey, secretaryg and Miss Nowels, class ad- visor. We held only one social event, a Hallowe'en party, which was a great success. After a three month's vacation, we returned in the fall of 1924, ready for the harder subjects which we were to take in this year. Reorganizing, we refelected Robert Feagler president and elected Homer Jenkins, vicefpresidentg Leonard Bailey, secretary and treasurer, and Mr. Wright, class advisor. Qur class has always taken an active part in all school activities and contributed members to all the different organizations, Gur first two years of high school have been a decided success and we hope to come back next year to even better our record. -Freda Beck, '27. llIlIIIIII1HIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIllVIIIHIHNlllllIIIIIIIIIIlIIIlllIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIKIIIIlIIIllllIlllIIlllIIIlIIlllIIIllIlllIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIlIIIIlllIllllIIIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIlIIIIIIIIllIIIlllIlllllIIIllIIIIIIIIllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHII The Reflector - Y A f x A A g Page 29 THE MEMBERS THIRD ROW Mildred Cave, Robert Feagler, Clifton Goff, Harry Kinsey, William Bauman Milford Cave, George Spann.

Some could not bear the terrible privations and fled from the field of battle. With one new recruit there were only fortyffour faithful followers left to continue the fight for dominance over Biology, Algebra, English, Latin, and other lesser, but, nevertheless, formidable allies. When the results of the first battle were sent out in the form of report cards, some found that their heroic attempts had not been appreciated as much as they might have been. However, they were not so surprised and shocked after the first time, for they knew what to expect and had six weeks in which to redeem themf selves. With two members on the Basket Ball team and one Latin champion, they con' sidered their enemies vanquished for a time, as well they might, for all of the forty' four had shown a wonderful fighting spirit. , In '28, when all their battles are over, they hope they can each truthfully say as Caesar did, Veni, Vidi Vincifl 1 -Bernice Kosis.

The very name suggests something crisp and refreshing. Even as I think of it I can hear the tinkle of sleigh bells, and feel the frosty air against my face. Isn't it pleasant to awaken and find the windows painted by the icy brush of Jack Frost, and to imagine that he was trying to bring you a picture of a beautiful ice-covered pine forest? And in the morning, isn't it delightful to go outside, well wrapped up, and watch the sun throw its light on the little icefcovered twigs of the trees, and see each little particle reflect thc light on a thousand sparkling colors, to crunch about through the snow, and wonder if anyone would see you if you should try out the little old sled, hanging nearly forgotten, in the woodfshed? Then there are the long walks through the envigorating air, trips through the woods, along streams just peeping through their blankets of snow and ice, the bob' sled parties, when you go for long drives through the frosty air, and at the end, go' ing to someone's home where, after warming red noses, tingling fingers and toes, our hostess serves us with sandwiches and steaming colfee. There is something about it all that gives me a feeling that it's good to be alive, and I go about my work with a light heart and a song on my lips. -Tural Ulrey, '25 .

They are enough to drive a person crazy. For instance, you find a nice long one with no two letters words. O Joy! Surf rounding yourself with Noah's unabridged edition, Crabb's English Synonyms, all the maps available, and a sharp pencil, you settle down to a quiet evening at home. You have smooth sailing until you come to a seven letter word beginning with y which means a forgotten country estate in Tierra del Fuego. Neither the dicf tionary, Crabb's, nor the Atlas will help you there and your temper begins to slip. You start at the bottom and try to work up, which business men tell us is the only way to success, but you are blocked by a little three letter word defined as a hill a secondhand car can climb By working two of the verticals you find the first letter is a and the last, Then, after running through 'the alphabet twelve or thirf teen times, it will finally dawn upon you that the word is Nant. Very simple, inf deed! There are more easy ones, as half an em, an obsolete word meaning co' Vey, a Chinese word meaning to reign, a three letter word meaning birth, and one meaning ua rodcnt of the icefagef' Unfortunately, you can't remember way back at that time. ' . By midnight you will have read nearly the entire dictionary as well as the Eng- lish Synonyms. Earlier in thc evening your parents ask what you get out of it if you do solve it, and somehow you cannot make them see the value of knowing that an en is half an em, nee means birth, or a secondhand car can climb an antfhill, this is especially true if they know that your History note book was due four days ago, Nevertheless, you keep on wrestling with the puzzle until you are completely stumped. Then, if you are a normal person, you will give the man who originated the puzzle a crude character analysis, and give it up for the night. The next day your kind UQ friend informs you that a good half of the puzzle is wrong and fills in the remaining spaces correctly. Someone is always taking the joy out of life. From then on you and your friend aren't friends. Do not laugh at these poor unfortunates. The disease is highly contagious and you may be the next to suffer. Even such a trifle as to have one of the enthusiasts ask you if you know a prehistoric ruler of Sparta with eight letters, may expose you and make you subject to the disease, and like the other maniacs you will be buying puzzle books and dictionaries. But those of us who have some reason left, believe that perhaps the afflicted ones are not incurable, Mah Jongg is now under control, and perhaps by next season the host of crossfword puzzlers will be cured. At least, let us hope so. ' -Y-Florence Harley, '26.

It was no pleasant sight to see this host of strong, rude men give vent to their thoughts of their common grievance. The force of the Imperial Iron Works had gone on a strike. ' In the private office sat the President, Superintendent, and others of his staff, smoking and pondering over the situation. i'Well, what suggestions as to our next move? broke in the General Manager. Sit still, gruffly responded the President. We'll not work for the sheriff. For indeed, the great corporation was now facing bankruptcy. It seemed to be inevitably headed for that too common ending of business ventures-the abyss of failure. Contracts of several years for disposal of its products had been made just previous to the great war, the catastrophe that sent the costs of materials and labor soaring. With the advent of the war, the Corporation found itself unable to com' pete with other-like establishments, for the cost of production was too great for the prefwar prices that the contracts demanded. As the employees could not be paid well, they objected, then organized, and struck. The employers were now left with- out a chance. They must be defeated without a struggle. The President knew itg the Manager knew it: they all knew it, but they all had hope that from somewhere assistance might come. They realized that a loan of ap' palling size was needed to keep the Works above the waves. Yet from no source could such a sum be obtained for their purpose. Their hopes centered about the old financier, Goldboy, who was defeated in a lawsuit with the rival iron works. A week passed. Creditors now stormed the doors of the office to be turned back with false promises of near future payment. There was no other movement about the great silent Works. The employers calmly awaited the coming of the sheriff. The sheriff did come. But a few steps ahea.d of him entered the welcome visitor, Mr. Goldboy. May this little loan help you, gentlemen, were the words of the financier, as he laid notes and bonds, totaling in value to a million dollars, upon the table. He did this as a result of his animosity for the rival concern, and his confidence in the Imperial Iron Works. Following the rejoicing and hand shaking, the sheriff was es' corted somewhat rudely to the exit. The laborers returned, the contracts were met, the loan repaid, and the estab' lishment entered into prosperity. All of this was done with just the help of a milf lion dollars. -Matt, '24 IIIIllllIlllIIIllIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll lllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIllIIIIlIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIllllllllIlllllllllllllIIIIIIlllIIIHllllIllllIIIHIIIIIHIHIIIHIIIIKIlllllllllllllllllll U! llll Ill VIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIII . - , . .

My name, said he, as he neared me, Is Geoffrey Plato McGinnis. Wot's your name? After telling him my name, I gave him the once over. Starting at the shoes, I will relate how he appeared to me. His shoes were neither of the button nor of the lace type, but were of the nail variety, so called because of the substitution of nails for buttons. The toe of one of his shoes was torn loose from the sole, and every time he would take a step, you could see a large, sockless, dirty toe. His trousers, which were dirty grey in color, were frayed at the cuffs. At one knee there was a blue patch, which, I imagine, covered a worn spot, while on the other knee, there was a black patch, that served the same purpose. His pockets bulged with packages, which were, no doubt, sandwiches, and other things, which he had receivf ed while begging from house to house. I knew he was a pessimist, because his trousf ers were held in place by a large leather belt as well as suspenders. He was not tak' ing chances on either of them. His shirt had once been blue in color, but it was now faded in some places, and darkened by mud in other places. Most of the buttons were missing, and were replaced by the usual nails. He carried on his shoulders a heavy stick, over which was hung a ragged coat. On the end of the stick was a large bandana handkerchief, which took the place of a traveling bag. A piece of wire hanging from the handkerchief suspended a small pail filled with water. His weather beaten face was large and round. He had a two weeks' growth of black beard. Drooping eyelids over faded blue eyes gave the appearance of one al' most asleep. One side of his face looked slightly swollen, but I noticed that it was only chewing tobacco. In the corner of his mouth was a black stub of a cigar, of the variety called Robinson Crusoe, on account of it being a cast away. His hair was shaggy. As he puled off his 1902 model brimless derby, I noticed that he was interested in agriculture, for in his hair was a rare collection of burrs, straws, and many other interesting specimens-no doubt gathered while sleeping in barns, strawf stacks and nsidefdoor pullniansf' As it was getting late in the day, and he wanted to reach the next town before night he shuffled along, down the track, carelessly singing in afloud, cracked voice, Who Tore the Sleeves out of Grandpa's Vest? -Abe W., '26. llllllFIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllKIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIHIIIIHIIIIK IIHIIIYIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll VIIIIIIII1IIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIYIIIIllIIIllIIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIII I IHIIII IIllIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllIIIIllIIllIIIllIIllIllllllllllllllllllllllf The Reflector Page 39 indian! - -f , -.1-if ,f Jun. -J -' , -.1 il ,f La 'J -raid A-ji? S. W. H. S. IN THE LAND OE UTDPIA E had just one more day, we were informed by our English teacher, to have our book-reports in, OR FAIL. Of course, this harsh rule did not affect the majority of the English students, because they had their reports done long ago. But as for me, needless to say, I still had five points to report upon and had not even started to read a book. Immediately after school was dismissed, I hurried to the li' brary. I seized the first book that I cast my eyes upon, without even noticing the title. When I arrived home, I took off my coat, seated myself in a comfortable chair, and prepared myself for many hours of solitude with the company of the book. It was Thomas Moore's Utopia The title did not appeal to me highly, but nevertheless I had to get the five points in if I had to read the dictionary. But the book was not harmed by the title, for I found it to be intensely interesting. I read and read and continued to read. I read until every thing in the room seemed like a mass of words before my eyes. It was far into the weary hours of the night when I finished my book, and plodded my way to bed. My head was full of visions of the land of Utopia. I turn' ed out the light, leaped into bed, and was very soon asleep. I was hardly asleep, it seemed to me, when my valet called me and told me it was time to arise and get myself hence to the place of learning. I crawled wearily out of my satin covered bed, and rang the bell for my valet to bring my clothes to me. After a dainty lunch, I summoned James, my chauffeur, and in a few moments I was off to the- place of learning in my new Rollsflloyce sedan, which my father had just bought for me to play with. james had to drive slowly, because the platif num pavement was very slippery, on account of a rain the night before. As a result I was late. The worthy custodian informed me that the last chimes had rung lond ago. Why are you late? asked the inquisitive principal. ' I do not choose to answer such a preposterous question, I replied as I prof ceeded on my way through the winding corridors. I had arrived just in time for English class, so I went to my room to see if there was anything doing there. I was hardly in class five minutes when the kind teacher sent me to the oflice for asking her a question that had been puzzling me for many years. The question I asked was, Dear teacher, can you tell my why day breaks, but does not fall, and why night falls, but does not break? The teacher became rather angry and replied, This is English class, and not a class in astronomy. Get thee hence to the superintendents office. I did as I was commanded and went to the office. I entered the little iron gate and shook hands with the considerate supervisor. Have a cigar and sit down and we'll talk matters over, were his words, as he handed me a Cherroot. The superintendent and I had tea and I was sent back to English class. Then I was shaken vigorously, but I found that it was not the teacher. It was my father, who was trying to get me up. I had been dreaming of Utopia. Instead of my car waiting for me, I found that I was to furnish my own transportation, and be subject to the usual rules and restrictions. -Gene, '2S.

I was feeling rather surprised that she had not come to meet me, as she never failed to do so before, when old Mr. Hayes, the stationfmaster, came up to me and said Yer aunt said fer me to tell you that you was to go on up to the house 'cause she had to get Mr. Jones to fix her lights. Alright, thank you, I replied. I walked down the narrow platform to the street and started for my aunt's home. Just as I got to the door of the living room, I heard a voice come out of the shadows. It said, Come right in and set down. But who are you? I asked. I'm Josephine, came the answer. Then I knew it was Old Josephine, as everyone in Melbourne called her. She was an old lady who went around to all her friends and neighbors and told them about her troubles. I was not surprised to find her there because my aunt had told me in her letters that it was not uncommon to find her sitting in a chair by the fire, when she came home. The old lady did no harm, so she was left to do as she pleased. How are you feeling? I inquired, knowing that I would be Hin for a tiresome description of her aiflictions, true and imaginary, but I felt that I had to say some' thing. Ch, fairly, fairlyg my rheumati: and neuritis has been botherin' me some, and just yesterday I got another stroke of astronomy. You don't know what it is to be afflicted with dyspepsia and the like. I feel in my bones that I haven't got long to live yet. Suddenly, a door slammed and I knew that my aunt had come home. k'I'm sorry I couldn't come to meet you, but I had to have the lights fixed. Have you been talking to Josephine? she said, as she came in. Before I could answer, she turned to Josephine and asked, 'LI-Iow do you like my niece? , Oh, fairly, fairly, she doesn't know what it is to be afflicted as I am, was the reply. Just then the lights went on and, cocking her head at me, on the arm of the chair was Josephine, my aunt's pet parrot. -Berniece Kosis, '28. MY MIND'S ADVENTURE NE night, as I lay sleeping, my unconscious mind, mounted upon a beautiful black horse, fared forth from the castle of deep slumber in quest of adventure. After riding like the wind for some time I came to the verge of a dense forest. Here I dismounted and taking a high powered rifle from my saddle started out on foot in search of big game. I had gone but a short distance when a shrill neigh of terror came from the opening in which I had left my horse. Turning, I ran back and burst through the underbush into the opening, just in time to see a huge tiger bring the horse down. I advanced a few steps and cocked my gun. The tiger turned from his victim and, with a hair-raising scream, charged. Fear so gripped me that I could not shoot but stood still before the onrushing beast, unable to move a muscle. I wanted to run but my legs refused to function. As the tiger leaped past he bowled me over with a sweep of his foot. In an instant he was upon me with a huge foot upon my chest. I struggled to get my breath. Although I tried to close my eyes, the sight of the gaping jaws above me held my gaze. Nearer and nearer it came until the beast's hot breath seemed to blister my cheek. When the head was quite close, the beast stuck out it's tongue as if to kiss me before bitting off my head. As his rough tongue touched my face, I screamed and awoke to find Tom, my pet cat, standing on my chest and licking my face. -Kep, '25.

There are those that are administer' ed to Fido when he has a pain in internal regions or when his joints are stiff with rheumatism or old age, and there is a kind that is not especially conducive to the general health of the dog. The latter is usually given after friend dog has committed a misdemeanor, such as depriving a worthy housewife of a fine surloin steak, or rudely applying his inf cisors to a passing pedestrian's lower limb. This type of buscuit is presented to Fido also when he has been declared a general nuiance by the surrounding community be- cause of his insistance upon demonstrating his vocal ability at a most unusually early morning hour.. These concerts last until friend neighbor sleepily pokes his head out of his bedroom window and, uttering strange thoughts concerning the evil aspect of the dog's character and ancestry, casts a shoe or some other handy weapon at the un' timely disturber. These buscuits are usually administered by the aforesaid neighbor. When the biscuit is taken into the mouth of the dog and well masticated, it should be swallowed immediately. If Fido refuses to comply with this, he may be assisted by pouring down his esophagus some Paris Green, red seal lye, or some oth' er more or less favorite drink of the members of the canine realm. After the biscuit reaches his digestive system, he becomes restless, and begins to run around several directions all at once, including up and down, turning somersets all the time. After this fit is over, he will make a round over the place to take a last look, and then will go out in the middle of the thoroughfare, stand on his nose, and wave farewell to the old world with his tail. Suddenly he will become subdued, then go over to the side of the road, lie down, and his soul will pass on to its reward in dog heaven. -Little Benny. lllllIIIllIIIIllIIIllIIIIllIIIlllIIllIIIIIIIIllIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll HIIHIIIIIIIII1IIIIllllllllllIIIIIIIIIllIllllllllllllllllllllll IIIIIIIIIIIHVIIIlIIIIHIHlIIIlIIIIlVIIHIIHVIIHVII!llllllllllNIIINNIIANHHPIII4llllllllllllllllllllilllllllllllllllWIKH l TheReflector - g AN g g M A V 7 g - - --F APage CDUR SPCNGER FRIENDS HAT persons, other than the spongers themselves, have dwelt upon this rapid' ly progressing terra firma for twenty and one long years without having suf- fered from the affected friendliness of a sponger friend? None, I may say, unless there are persons who have no friends whatsoever. Even then they must meet the frequent advances of their unloving neighbors who borrow but never return. We are met on all sides by a vast host of would be friends, neighbors and relaf tives who are always on hand at every promising occasion, such as a birthday, wed' ding anniversary or holiday. At such times after much unneeded persuasion they are prevailed upon to ref main for dinner, at which time after much more unneeded persuasion, they accept the third piece of pie and the fourth of cake. When this is consumed compliments of both are poured in from every hand and once again the platters go the round. This however is not the only type of sponger, even though it is the illustration used by the Right Honorable Noah Websten We have those, who after borrowing a sum of money from you, intentionally avoid you for the following decade until they think the debt is outlawed. If you happen to meet up with this gentleman or gentlewoman some time after the borrowing of the money, you are greeted with, Aha, there, my John! Say, didn't I borrow the trifling sum of fortyfthree dollars the other week? He knows you to be helpless and unable to say other than, Oh, that's alright, I'm in no hurry to get my money. He remarks that he had left his purse at home and so cannot pay him until the next time, The next time it is with you as the famous Geometry axiom, Equals subtracted from unequals, the results are unequal in the same order. That is, you again sub' tract some money from your purse and he subtracts it from you, leaving himself richer and you much nearer poverty and self destruction. I might go on and enumerate numerous other classes of sponger friends, but as their number is endless, so would my task be endless. Why should we not have spongers? Do they not awaken our interests and give us something to live for? Certainly, if we had everything quiet and peaceful, we should not care to live in the drab monotony that followed. After thinking about this we may and again we may not accept the sponger for better or worse, but since he is here we may as well make the best of a had proposition. -Joe Parrett, '26, Ill! HHH! HI!

CCCKINC HE Shop, or Manual Training Classes, under the very able instruction of Mr. Wright, have proven to be the most interesting as well as successful of any pref ceding year. Due to the fact that the room is small and crowded the classes are much handicapped. This is very eihciently overcome by the superb planning of Mr. Wright, and things go very smoothly except when a certain Freshman mistakes a Senior to be the instructor. Much of the success this year is due to the fact that a band saw had been pure chased and installed in the room. This gives a means of making designs which would otherwise had to have been plain. It also saved much hard work in ripping and other sawing. There has been a large collection of furniture made this year, consisting of: bulfets, dressers, library tables, cedar chests, writing desks, pedestals, book racks, hall trees, tea-wagons, table lamps, and many other things too numerous to mention. These articles will be on the Annual School Exhibit, and we invite you to come and judge for yourselves the progress over the preceding years. -Armey, 'Zi IllllllllIllllIlIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIllIIIlIIIIlIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIXIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllIlllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIII III Ill IlllllllllllllIllllllllVIII!llllllllllIIIIVIII1llllVIIIIIllllIIIIIlllllIIII4III4VIIIHIIHIIIHIIIVII IlllIVIIHIllIIVIHHIIHIIHIIHHIIHIIIHIII The Reflector g n i - AV 7 x - x f Page Y ,, - , , J, , J- '.-,' Y' Y' ip 'J-gi7 , . HOME ECONOMIC REVIEVJ HE Foods classes of the first semester were exceptionally large. Throughout the year, both classes planned and served several lunches. These gave the girls valuable training and we think that none of the student body suffered on account of them. The Advanced class also served a six o'clock dinner to the School Board and Mr. and Mrs. Fleck. Some of the girls entered the National Meat Story Contest which closes the first of May. The person who writes the best essay on meats receives three hun' dred dollars, other smaller prizes follow. We hope that through the aid of Miss Carson, many will win large prizes. Except for a few burned pies and fallen cakes, we can say that the Foods Classf es were a success. The second semester the classes changed. Many who were in the Foods Class' es went on with the study of clothing, others entered for this course. Both classes made some very attractive garments. The eighth grade girls are not to be forgotten, for they too helped to make our exhibit a fine one. -Alice Day, '25. PAINTERS, PRATTLE HE chairs noisily shuffle into their places and the work begins.

Some of you are going to be very much disappointed on your deportment grades. There is a sudden pause in the spirited conversation. Gradually the damper of Miss Carson's words loses its silencing effect and the battle again rages. Betty, does this look alright? Why, it's pretty good for a sunset. Sunset! Nothing. That's a lake, retorts ruffled Lois.

AJ -7 -Ll 74 , Q. I AJ -7-Q ,Y ,Q- THE INQUIRINGB REPORTER A Number of Pressing Problems is Solved in this Department Ques.-What new subjects should be added to the High School course? Ans. -flvlilford Cavej: Bookkeeping and typewriting should be added to the cur' riculum for the Junior and Senior classes. Some students cannot go on into col' lege, and these would aid greatly in obtaining a position. I believe that, for en- couragement, credit should be given for this work. fMartha Swihartj: There are many subjects that could be added to the course. Stenographv is one of the more important. It would prove useful in the busif ness world as well as in everyfday life. French and Virgil should be in every school that is up to the standard, for they are required subjects for all large colleges and universities. fFrank Smithj: Spelling and the study of the dictionary should be added to the High School course. Also, physical culture is a much needed course. Many students are weak in both mental and physical ways. At present all work is directed toward improving the students' mentality, and physical culture is needf ed to build up the weak bodies. Ques.-What is your purpose in attending High School? Ans.-Uoe Parrettj: I am attending High School to obtain the necessary preparae tion for meeting the difficulties of life and coping successfully with them. fGiiford Blainjz My purpose in attending High School is to make the very best of it that I possibly can. One can make a success of it by hard work and by the aid of the teachers. It may help me in following years as it will give me a chance to rise above a poor laboring man. Ques.-Should South Whitley High School have a school paper? Ans.-fRobert Trumbullj: I conclude that a school paper would be advisable. It would give the students training about the printing business. It would also help the spirit of the school. fKeith Yeiserj: For many reasons this school should edit a paper, chief of which is its educational benefit. A High School paper gives an unlimited amount of experience to the staff, which could not otherwise be obtained. Much good talent for editors and reporters is uncultivated, due merely to the lack of opportunity. In my estimation, the experiences received while editing a school paper, is experience received none too soon.

Whitley to go together in build- ing a new High School building? Ans.-fPaul Waughj: I would advise the Township and So. Whitley to go to' gether in building a new High School building at So. Whitley. Without the town students or without the country students it would be too small a school. Also, by going together they can afford to pay more for teachers and the whole school can be run more efficiently. fLouis Beardj: There should be cofoperation rather than have no new build' ing at all. fErvin Sinkj: One of the valuable aids to an efficient High School is a well arranged building. Because of the small and deficient building, I think that Cleveland Township and So. Whitley should join in constructing a modern building. What would be a more valuable asset to the community than this? Ques.-Is it right for our friend teachers to deprive us of the privilege of Writing and sending certain secret messages in the assembly room? Ans.-fDorothy 1.1: Absolutely! This means of communication should be barred from school activities. From the students' point of view, and from one who knows, a person may write many things that might cause hard feelings which one would not care to put in spoken words. These 'iunderseat and overhead mail routes often prove disastrous when, there being four Dorothys in the Sen' ior class, the wrong L'Dot gets the message. Games E. RJ: Absolutely not! Does not the Constitution of these dry but free United States guarantee to all citizens certain unalienable rights, among which are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness? And cannot this uinfamf ous practice, as it is called by our respected teachers, be classed under any or all of these? If these interferences with our 'kUnderground Railway continue, certainly we will ask the services of an able attorney. Ques.-Should basket ball boys be required to make speeches in the assembly? Ans.-fHarold Foxj: Huh ugh. 'Cause fWe judge from this that they do not have enough energy to make speeches., fHubert Kinseyj: A player's work is done on the basket ball floor, and his mentality should not be taxed during school hours. Ques.-What is a great need of S. W. H. S. and how can it be remedied? Ans.-fHarley Finchl: The singular of the word need should not be used con- . cerning S. W. H. S., but the plural should be used to be correct. Our needs are great, for a whole new school building and the necessities. that go with it are needed. In our town is a bunch of ............ fcensuredj ............ who are in the way of the measure. In a few years our old relic of a school building will be' gin to crumble and become a successful fireftrap. Possibly in the future it may get a chance to prove what it is ............. Something should be done to put this bug of improvement into the people's ears. fEditorj: Our place of learning was formerly a noble edifice which served its purpose well. Minds of genius, culture and fame have gone forth from these halls of learning into the world. But the community hasstaken Teddy Roosef velt's advise, and the institution is now too small for the student body. With a fine new building, such as North Manchester has, better and more work would be done and a finer interest would be taken. The new building can be placed beside the present one which can still be used for the grades. It is not only advisable but it is a necessity. It is not only a possibility but a project that can be put across in this thriving community. Let us have a new High School building!

The organizations for this study consisted of a band, orchestra, both boys' and girls' glee clubs, and a double quartette. The band, which was made up of si:-:tyftwo members, was probably the greatest of musical ventures. Its progress has been rapid and truly remarkable. Under the careful supervision of Mr. Albert, the glee clubs have done some very commendable work. In order to enter the organization, each student was ref quired to pass two tests-one in reading of music, and the other, a vocal test. The members first appeared in a cantata, 'kThe Mound Builders, and later gave a Chin' ese operetta, The China Shop. Both were nicely attended, and well given. The orchestra, too, deserves special attention. This year they have played adf vanced and diitlicult pieces with the ease and skill which comes from diligent practice and careful supervision. With the younger scholars working in the band, the or' chestra in coming years will have a ready supply of material from which to draw. There were ten pupils taking private lessons this year: six violin, three piano, and one saxophone. Under the auspices of the Senior class, Miss Glasgow and lVIiss Ewig assisted by Miss Essig, of this city, gave a splendid program on Mar. 4 consisting of violin, vo' cal, and piano numbers, which was highly appreciated. Another feature of this department was the special course of Ivlusic History and Harmony. The study proved to be very interesting to the many who undertook it. The work in Music Memory was very successful this year. Under the direction of Mr. Albert two groups were trained in this work, a grade group and a high school group. From these groups two teams were chosen. The grade team consisted of Mary Ann Metzger, Clinton Snyder and Dorothy Smith and the high school team consisted of Bernice Snyder, Berniece Kosis and Katharine Swartz. Each team won first place in the County contest at Columbia City and each won the second place in the District contest at Garrett.

Church on Januf ary 27th of this year, was a very pleasing one. This program was under the di' rection of Mr. Albert. The first of the program consisted of several fine selections by the orchestra, the members of which performed accurately and won the applause of the audience. The Double Mixed Quartet followed with two selections that were likewise successf ful. The combined Glee Clubs then presented the Cantata, the presentation of which was no small achievement. The Cantata: MTI-IE MOUND BUILDERS by Paul Bliss The Mound Builders is an American Cantata. The melodies or short themes were taken down. many years ago by the composer who attended the rites and dances of many Indian tribes, The Story: At sunrise the Indian braves start on a deerfhunting expedition. During their absence thevwomen continue with the mound building. They become weary by noon and rest, watching an eagle in its flight. The deer hunters return emptyfhanded and the women go to the stream for water to refresh the weary war' riors. During their absence the camp is attacked and then the foe attempts to cap- ture the water carriers. They are driven off, and the water carriers return. As eve' ning comes on, a woodfpigeon is heard and then a flute, in a serenade yhich all sing as night falls. The separate numbers are: Hunting Song Song of the Water Cariers Farewell of the Indian Maidens War Song Departure of the Deer Hunters Return of the Water Carriers Dove Song Night Song Eagle Song Serenade Return of the Deer Hunters ,c llllllilllllllllll HIHHIHN lIIllIIVIIlllllllllllllllllllllll IllllllKIIIlHlllHIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIlIlllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllIIIIVIIIIIIII1VIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIHlllllllllllllllllllllllllllIlllllllllllllllIlIIIlIIIIIIIIllIIlllllllllllllllllllllll The Reflector-g g g g g g Page 55 lllllllllll TI-IE CHINA SHCI? HE high light of the year's calendar was the presentation of the Operetta, The China Shop. The music was of good quality and lively interest, and the stag' ing effect was splendid. Much time and energy was spent in preparation. Under the supervision of Mr. Albert, everyone cofoperated and best results were obtained. THE STORY Fat Sing fHerman Wienerj, a prosperous old merchant of the town of Ping Pong in China, is tired of life and weary of wealth. He decides to disappear. Bef fore doing so, he arranges to bequeath all his property to the indigent orphans of his native town, thus dispossessing his son, Sing Fong fHarold Foxj, who has to shift for himself. The business remains in Sing Fong's hands but the profits are to go to the orphans. Hoy Tee Toy QRuth Gardnerj, an elderly spinster who is chaperonf ing three charming Chinese girls, tries to marry one or the other of them off to Sing Fong, as she believes he is to inherit the old merchant's money. Sing Fong is not anxious to marry any of the three belles. A poor fisherman, Tannyu fLaMarr Millerj, has a niece, Lotus Blossom fRuth Remingtonj, whom he describes to Sing Fong as a beautiful doll, and he oifers to sell her as such. This results in the meet' ing of Lotus Blossom and Sing Fong with the result of love at first sight: Lotus Blossom does the love making, although Sing Fong is not too enthusiastic. At length Fat Sing disappears and the populace elects Sing Fong to the office of chief magistrate of Ping Pong. At last he decides to marry none but a wealthy orphan, thinking thus to end his troubles because there are none of that type of orphan in the city. He not only falls heir to Fat Sing's millions, but to the idol of his heart as well. The comedy element is furnished largely by Mr. juscot Karfair fEugene Weyf brightj, an American reformer, the eiforts of the three belles fTural Ulrey, Ernestine Wilkin, and Dorothy ,Iensenj to land Sing Fong into their matrimonial nets, and by Mush Lush fRobert Trumbullj, a womanfhater. Hoy Tee Toy also contributes her share of the comedy. The three belles are not left in the lurch finally, for in the persons of Mush Lush, Wun Tun fFrank Smith, and Chunk fPaul Snyderj they find what they may properly regard as the next best thing. The choruses of Shoppers and Garden Party Guests add to the attraction. MUSICAL NUMBERS b Act I Duet-L'He5', Diddle, Diddle, Dey .................................... Mush Lush and Sing Fong.

Mr. Farren, our successful band instructor, is a man of long experience in band work. At pres' ' ent he is instructing six school bands. He enjoys his work with boys and girls and works energetic' ally and conscientiously for their advancement. The results of his work with us are very satisfacf ' tory. Our school band will soon be able to enter- tain the public by giving concerts. MR. ROBERT E. HICKS. Mr. Robert E. Hicks is the man who made the band a reality for us. Mr. Hicks was known to be a real friend to the So. Whitley Schools but he never had the op' portunity of demonstrating his friendship in such a material way before this year. He bef lieves in our boys and girls. It is his opinf ion that they can be made able to entertain us if given special instruction. He is paying Mr. Farren for instructing the band. We take this means of assuring Mr. Hicks that' we appreciate his splendid interest in the school. I I Illlll II Illll IIIVIIHII I llllllllll Il I I Il I II VII II III!

But for lack of interest this .organization was disbanded, which left many of the students, who had splendid musical talent, without a leader. The loss of this band has been long felt by the community. Finally in 1924, the first semester of this year, under the encouragement of Professor Fleck as the head of the school, the musical interest was once more aroused. A meeting was held at the school house on the evening of December nineteenth to finish the organization and to discuss the ordering of instruments. About eighty were in attendance. The ex- pense of paying the leader, Ivir. Farren, has been graciously arranged for. At the first practice, the children enjoyed their work, though their combined efforts could not be termed music. At later rehearsals, which occur semi-weekly, the band did better, which shows that there are great possibilities in the large group of enthusiastic youngsters, The division of the sections of the band is now complete, and comparatively difficult music is being played. . Before long, South Whitley will have a school band to be proud of. PERSONNEL CORNETS -Bob Feagler, '27.

Time: The present. A young lady, Miss Honor Bright, trying to make money to finish college as a book agent, happens to enter the Barrington home. There is some commotion there due to the delayed arrival of Mr. Richard Barrington's fiancee, Miss Tot Marvel, a chorus girl, whom no one, with the exception of Richard, in the family has seen. Richard secretly makes a contract with Miss Bright to pretend to be Tot. Bishop Carton, Richards uncle immediately falls into the trap and is convinced that chorus girls are not as bad as people think. The real Tot's arrival startles Honor and Richard, who try to keep her hidden. Tot really loves Bill Drum, press agent of her company, but became engaged to Richard to spite Bill. Honor and Richard summon him, then Tot rebels and says she will not go back with him. After much persua- tion she decides to go back and marry him. Richard tells the family his secret and his mother, his uncle, and his usually sarcastic Aunt Peggy are delighted to have Honor in the family. lllll I II I l The Reflector L A g Page 60 DRATORY AND DEBATING A debating society was formed at the beginning of the second semester under the supervision of Mr. Shenefield. Avyce Richard was elected president, Florence Harley, secretary, and a program committee of Justus Walpole, Cleon Fleck, and Florence Harley waswappointed. A meeting was held once a week. Most of our time was devoted to discussion of the State Discussion Contest Question, The Child Labor Amendment. A very interesting and well attended debate on this subject was held by divisions of the society. The members were Von Chesterman, Cleon Fleck, Freda Beck, Florence Har' ley, Mary Walter, Emma Pook, Mildred Cave, Dorothy Jensen, Mildred Shenefield, Avyce Richard, Dorothy Swanson, lvlilforcl Cave, Justus Walpole, George Keppler, James Remington, and Louis Beard. Essays in the form of speeches were written on the question studied. The speech of George Keppler was judged to be the best of those competing. George ably represented our school in the County contest at Columbia. City. We were later represented by Ruth Gardner in a County contest on The Constitution. Ruth prepared a speech on a short notice and did commendable work in winning the substantial money prize for second place. Following the usual annual custom, we promoted the oratorical contest, by elimination contests in the High School, and choosing one student to represent us in the county contest. The oratorical contests were met with enthusiasm and all felt that they profited by the work. In general the public speaking of this year was more than emphasised, and much was accomplished along this line. -Pola, '2'5. DADDY LCNGfLEGS On April 27 and 28 the Junior Class presented their class play, Daddy Long' Legs in a pleasing manner. Of this play it has been said: If you will take your pencil and write down one below the other, the words delightful, charming, sweet, beautiful, and entertaining, and then draw a line and add them up, the answer will be 'Daddy Long-Legs' .

II IIII IIIII THE LATIN DEPARTMENT A great interest has been shown in the Latin Department this year. There are three classes, the Freshman class which has twenty members, the Caesar class of fourteen members, and the Cicero class of ten members. There were six Latin students in the County Latin contest, two representatives from each class. At this contest Katharine Swartz, a Freshman, received first place and Ruth Remington, a Caesar student, received second place. These people repre' sented South Whitlcy in the District Latin contest held in Fort Wayne. Here the representatives did especially well. Katharine Swartz took second place in her di' vision by an almost perfect score. Ruth Remington also ranked well in the second group. In October a Latin Club was organized. It was composed of the three classes mentioned. The name given to the Club was Romani Hodierni, which means Romans of Today. , A meeting of the Romani Hodierni was held each month. At these meetings there were various forms of amusement such as crossword puzzles, spelling contests, and at one meeting a Latin play was given, entitled The Roman School. -Edna Smith, '25, CHAPEL The work in Chapel this year has assumed a prominent place in the school program. The regular Friday morning hour has been devoted to assembly singing, scripture reading, and often to speaking. The High School has been rendering some fine chorus work and shows improvement over preceding years. The local ministers gave some fine Chapel talks which the student body appreciated. Several persons representing different vocations have spoken to us this year. In December Mr. A. E. Mokstad spoke on the subject of Salesmanship in which he is directly interested and has ha.d much experience. In his lively discourse he discussed the requisities of a salesman, and showed in detail how a sale is made. Mr, Dunkleburg of the Hicks Corporation, addressed us on Writing as a Vocation. In his paper he discussed this vocation as to remuneration, chances for success, and the energy and preparation required, Rev. Lindsay, of Columbia City, spoke on the Ministry as Life's Work. He talked of this vocation as an opportunity for serv- ice, and discussed the training and experience of the work. Prof. J. O. Winger, of Manchester College, addressed us on The Fundamentals of Success. Our local citizen, Mr. R. E. Hicks, favored us with an address in which he reminded us of the advantages and opportunities which are about us. The lecture of Prof. J. Raymond Schutz, of Manchester College, which was given at the M. E. Church for the benefit of the Senior Class, was an instructive one. Prof. Schutz gave a vivid picture of Europe, the conditions he found there, and the horrors of another war. ,,, ' L'Good English programs featured two Chapel hours. Among the students who gave fine short talks were Joe Parrett, Von Chesterman, Florence Harley, George Keppler, and Frank Smith. Mr. Shenefield spoke on Literature and Life. Miss Nowels talked to us on Conditions in New England. Athletics, in the form of celebrations and pep sessions, also formed part of the Chapel work. -Weary Editor.

AJ .1-Y , A-Ll IIIIIIIIIIIII SUMMARY OF THE SEASON HE Basket Ball season of '24725 has proven to be one of the most successful in the athletic history of the school. Coach Yoder has turned out a team that the school and town can be proud of. Practice was begun in October in the old Grip Nut hall. At Mr. Yoder's first call, a great number of candidates loyally responded. With Kinsey, Fox, Goff, Matson, McConnell, and Eisaman, last year's stars, back in the blue and white, prospects for a winning team were indeed promising from the start. To complete the squad, two men, Paul Snyder and Howard Merrick, were placed in the group. South Whitley was fortunate this year in having a large new hall. By Novemf ber it was completed and ready for use. It was a great improvement over the old place. The playing floor is forty by seventy feetg the ceiling is of good height, which is a help in basket shooting. This year's team has established a valuable record. The beautiful banner which we brought home from the County Tourney now occupies a conspicious place in the assembly room. The winning of the Sectional Tourney is an achievement that only one other team in the history of our school can boast of. Cur Reserves should not be entirely deprived of the credit that is due them. The Reserve ilinefup consisted of Herman Wiener, Clifton Golf, Leonard Bailey, Harry Kinsey, john Lancaster, James Remington, and Norman Armey, with Mr. Wright as coach. This group played five games this year, two with Larwill, two with the North Manchester Reserves, and one with the Faultless Faculty. The Ref serves downed the Manchester boys as the main game of the evening when they first played them. The Larwill first team narrowly won their games, but the Faculty lost to the Reserves because of lack of efhcient cofoperation. We are expecting a great deal from these boys for next year's squad, Norman is the only one who graduates. Harry Kinsey gained a place on the first eight late in the year when one of the regu- lars became ineligible. Harry played in the District and Regional Tourneys and made a very good showing. When the final gun sounded in the Elkhart game at Fort Wayne, Fox, Matson, and Kinsey left the floor for the last time in the good old blue and white colors for which they so nobly fought. ln spite of the loss of these valuable men, the pros' pects for next year are from discouraging, and our school should be represented by a winning quintet. The school takes this means of thanking Doctors Wilkin and McPherson for their services to the teams. Also, to Virgil Trump our gratitude is extended, for the beautiful banner which he presented to the school, as well as to the citizens of the town for their loyal support of the teams in the manner of attendance at the games. -Weydini, li IllllIIllllIllllIlllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllIIIllIllllIIllIIIllIIIIIIIllllllllIIIllIIIlllllllllllllllllllllll Illllllllllllllll IIllIIllIIIllIIIllIlllllllllllllllllllllll Illllllllllll IHIIIIIIIHIII I III II Ill!

THE GAMES THIS YEAR Oct. 31. South Whitley 21-W'olf Lake 15. There. The team started the season in a grand style by defeating the strong Wolf Lake five. The game was featured by fast playing and good defensive work on the part of both teams. Our boys led at the halffway mark, 8f4. When the second half opened, Wolf Lake scored two field goals in rapid succession, which tied the count. After a timefout, South Whitley came back strong and forged ahead by a good lead over their opponents. The entire personnel of the local squad played exceptionally well, and prospects for a winning team were certainly evident. Nov. 7. South Whitley 8-North Manchester 43. There. Our boys should be commended for the game fight they put up, although they were hopelessly outclassed. Goff, one of the main cogs in the local offensive, was in- eligible for this game which made matters ever worse for us. North Manchester has one of the fastest teams in Indiana and compare with the-average college team in size. Our boys were outplayed during the entire gameg the first half ended 21f2. Manchester made numerous substitutions in the second half and scored 22 to our 6. Nov. 17. South Whitley 26-Washington Center 32. There. The outcome of this game was a complete surprise to both teams and all fans. Cut boys went to the W. C. H. S. new gym confident of a victory. Overfconfidence sounded the deathfknell for the local hopes The Center boys did some fancy shoot- ing during their streak of luckf' long goals by Arnett, Anders, and Beck were add' edg S. W. missed many easy attempts to score. Loss of Kinsey and Goff on personf els blasted all hopes of victory. Nov. 21. South Wfhitley 21-Clear Creek 24. There. In this game South Whitley exhibited some of the best brand of basket ball in any game this season. In the first half our boys completely outclassed their oppon' ents both in teamfwork and shooting, and gained a lead of 7 points. In the last half Clear Creek was able to work their offensive much better than before, while the lo' cals seemed unable to find the basket, missing easy attempts to score. Clear Creek tallied 13 points which was suiiicient to give them the game. Nov. 26. South Whitley 13-Bippus 11. Here. This was the dedication game for our new basket ball hall. The first half was very slow and uninteresting, but several fouls were called. Bippus led 4'3 at the halfg all her points were made on free throws. The remainder of the game was faster, but the teams had difficulty in hitting the hoop. Our boys finally penetrated the visitors' defense to emerge two points to the good. Dec. 5. South Whitley 39-Warsaw 24. There. This was one of the most glorious victories of the season. ,Warsaw was classed as one of the best in northern Indiana. Our team went to Warsaw determined to fight to the limit, and they certainly did. Following the close first half the locals ran away with their opponents. Goff was responsible for 18 points, they all seem- ed to hit the ring at all angles. This was Snyder's first showing as a regular, and he made a very creditable showing. ' II Illlll The Reflectog f A f - f R Y f f f 7 Page 75 Dec. 12. South Whitley 25-Roanoke 13. Here. This decisive victory was earned by the splendid playing of the entire personnel of the local squad, each man contributed his share to the victory. The score was larger than was predicted. Roanoke was rated as a fast teamg they had previously won a fine victory over Columbia City. In the last half the Whitley lads held their own and outplayed them 13-9. Dec. 20. South Whitley 19-Andrews 17. Here. Overfconfidence on the part of the locals nearly proved disastrous for them. Andrews started the game with a dashing offensive, scoring 10 points while we man' aged to tally but one free throw. Andrews still held a 15 to 8 advantage at the in- termission. Then the local offense and defense worked hand in hand for the last half. Fox should be given credit for his two timely goals that gave S. W. the heavy end of the score. I Jan. 9. South Whitley 17-Washington Center 8. Here. We got revenge from our neighboring rivals for our early season defeat. The local lads soon took the lead and held it throughout the entire fray. The half ended 10f6. In the second half Washington Center was allowed but one goal, while our boys scored 7 points. South Whitley did not play to her limit in this game, saving her surplus energy for the Argos game the following night. Jan. 10. South Whitley 26-Argos 24. There. This game was a battle royal from the opening whistle to the final gun. Our boys played aqwhirlwind offense, but were handicapped by the small playing space. Merrick, our stalwart backfguard, broke the ice with a long toss. Following the half at 16 all, the lcad changed hands frequently. With fortyffive seconds to go, Kinsey sank the winning marker for S. W. Jan. 16. South Whitley 29-Sidney 13. There. This contest, which was doped to be a hard battle, proved to be easy sailing for the locals. Sidney was allowed the first goal before our boys adapted themselves to the small floor. Our boys began to find the rim and ran up a 11f4 advantage at the half. Goff seemed to sink the leather at will, scoring half the total. For the final minutes Coach Yoder ran in the entire Reserve lineup, and they held Sidney on equal terms. Jan. 17. South Whitley 11-Central Catholic fl-it. Waynej 22. Here This was our first defeat in seven consecutive wins, but it was not a severe blow, as the Irish have one of the fastest teams in this part of the State. In the first half both teams played a somewhat ragged game, with neither one able to hit the basket. The Catholics then opened a dashing offense with scoring results. This sudden onslaught threw our boys out of step, and they could not hit their stide again. Jan. 23. South Whitley 23-Pierceton 26. Here. This was the fastest game witnessed at home this seasong the outcome was unf decided from the first toss-up to the final whistle. The game was featured by fast and snappy team work upon the part of both teams. Both sides missed easy at! tempts to score. The lead changed hands regularly throughout the half which end' ed 1543 for the visitors. They staged a rally and gained a 2446 edge over our boys. Goff started a successful bombardment of the basket to increase our total to 23. Ill I III lll Il I Ill llll I T 'f' ' g gl' -.rg ' V' g,r The Reflector VOL. VIII S.W.H.

South XVhitley started the scoring and led at the half 15 to 13. Near the close Wolf Lake gained a point lead upon the locals. Fox forced the game into an overtime period with a foul goal and one from the field. Snyder was the first to score but the visitors added two baskets just before the gun, which put them on the long end of the score. Feb. 13. South Whitley 32-Clear Creek 36. Here. This was also a thrilling game. Clear Creek managed to win in the final min' utes of the game. South Whitley started the scoring and held the lead during the half. In the final period the local boys forged ahead by a 10 point margin. But the certainty of winning soon fell to zero when Goff was removed by personals. The lead diminished until the count was knotted at 32 all. Two goals by Yoder, C. Cfs flashly forward, cinched the game for them. ' Feb. 14. South Whitley 27-Central Catholics 32. There After the strenuous game with Clear Creek, the boys met another defeat at the hands of the Ft. Wayne lads. S. W. looked to be a certain winner until the last few minutes when C. C. staged a come-back and won the game. The locals held an eight point advantage when the Irish started to sink them from seemingly impossible angles. Feb. 21. South Whitley 30-Argos 19. Here. The boys won this game by a much larger score than anyone predicted. S. W. had previously won by a small margin, and a hard fought game was expected. South Whitley played a near faultless game both in guarding and offense in the first half, outfscoring the opponents by 10 points. By the end of the contest Argos was showf ing up well, but the lead was too much for them to overcome. Feb. 27. South Whitley 31-Sidney 15. Here. We closed our schedule in the same manner that we began, by defeating Sidney in a splendid way. Sidney came here determined to get revenge, but was downed by the same number of points as in the first game. The Sidney boys were the first to tally from the field. They failed to get a field goal in the second half. McConnell garnered three goals in a very short time. W IIIIIII Illl I ll I The Reflector Page 77 1 1 AJ -7 AILY if ,T J. Y -QL2 ,T ,Y J. T-I' .-- -T -T F THE COUNTY TCURNAMENT E The third annual County Tournament was held at Columbia City on January 30 and 31, with eight teams participating. Our first opponent was Etna. We had very little trouble in disposing of the upfcounty boys, by a score of 29-5. Etna was held scoreless from the field during the entire game. The following afternoon we met the scrappy Churubusco team. Although this was a harder fought contest, we put them on the bench with a 27 to 16 defeat. By winning this game we gained the right to play the County Seat lads in the evening. The final game, with Columbia City, was the fitting climax to the Tourney. The two rival teams remained to battle for the right to carry away the splendid new banner. Two times before had the same schools met in the deciding games of the preceding Tourneys, and as many times had Columbia City taken the honors. But on this, the third time, we won the L'Champions of Whitley County banner by win' ning the fast and lively game: the final score was 2Of16. Our boys hopped off to a 9f3 advantage at the half. C. C. H. S. staged a better offensive in the last half and outfscored our boys, but the early lead was sufiicient to give us the heavy end of the score. THE SECTIONAL TCURNAMENT The Sectional Tourney was held at Columbia City with practically the same teams participating as did in the previous Tourney, We met Coesse in the opening game. They gave our players very little opposition, and we sent them to the showers with a 4914 defeat stinging them. In the afternoon we took up hostilities with Churubusco. Our boys were expecting a hard battle, but Busco proved to be an easy prey. Busco's hopes fell to :ero when our boys began rolling 'em in. Our opponents scored but one field goal, and totaled but S points, while our cagers piled up 43 points before the final gun. This game led to the evening contest with Co' lumbia City for the Sectional honors. Columbia City took the floor in the best of spirits, and anxious to get revenge for their previous defeat. Cnr boys were equally anxious for action. Spirited cheer- ing arose from both sides of the hall as the yell leaders directed the enthusiastic crowds. The referee tossed up the ball and the game was on. Our boys could not get together well in the first half. lvlatson was removed from the game, as he did not play up to his usual form. Columbia City carried the heavy end at the half, the score being 7f4 in their favor. After the intermission, field goals by Goff, Snyder, and Goff put the count 1Of7 for us. We held the lead and continued to increase it from there on to the final gun, which found S. W. on the long end, 22 to 15. THE REGIONAL By our victory over Columbia City we gained the privelege to play in the Reg' ional Tourney at Ft. Wayne on Ivlarch 14. Cur opponent was Elkhart. They were much heavier than our boys, and with the loss of Goff we were outclassed. Elkhart won by the fairly large score of 32 to 18. -Weydim, 'Z 7.

He is a sharp-shooter when it comes to hitting the basket, and it keeps the opposing guard hustling to hold him down, Late in the season Jim had the misfortune to sprain his ankle which put him out of the line-up for a time. but he made up for lost :time in the County Tourney and was ranked among the highest. He is a Senior and should be an asset to the college that gets him. ROBERT HUGH McCONNELL Forward-Center Bob was a man that could be call- ed upon to play almost any position on the team. He filled three different places during the year and in each one performed in a fine style. He played in all games but one. Bob Was an out- standing star in the final game of the District Tourney. He should be one of next year's regulars.

He certainly proved his ability as an all 'round star in every game in which he played. Dump won the distinction of being the 'high point man for his team this season. He was a big factor in winning the District Tourney on March 7th, His work as a player look- ed good to the sport-Writers. He was chosen for the all-District team. He is a Junior. PAUL REVERE SNYDER Center Paully was tdark horse of this year's candidates. He soon proved himself worthy of his position and be- came a favorite of the fans of the com- munity, He often came through with a goal when it was most needed. He was generally chosen as all-District center. As he is a Freshman, he should be one of the Bull Dogs for three seasons yet to come. IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINIIIIIIIIII The Reflector K f A f - A f Page 79 HUBERT REESE KINSEY Guard Hubie is one of the best defensive men that our High School has ever pro-duced. He not only did his part in the defensive line but always, by his accurate passing and fine dribbling, came through with his share in the scoring column. While Captain he led the team well. Sport critics placed him as the best guard in the County. He is a Senior. His absence will leave a wound which will be hard to heal. HOWARD GROVER MERRICK Back-Guard Cow was a new man on this year's squad, but he developed into an elli- cient guard. Cow was fthe fellow who could rush in at the critical mom- ent to keep an opponent from scoring when it seemed impossible to do so. He played in every game of the schedule. and in all of every game with one er- ception. We hope to hear much from him next year. FOY HERMIAH EISAMAN Sub-Guard Dutch is another one of our old faithfuls. He can't be beat when it comes to fast and snappy passing. No one has ever been too fast for him on the basket ball floor. His animated guarding scatters his opponents' shots. He can also sink 'the ball with .compar- ative ease. He will be back again next year. HAROLD RAY FOX Sub-Guard Short was our ever-ready substi- tute again this year. At different times this season he was called upon to fill the place of a regular, and he could -play a fine game. He saved us the Andrews game by two timely field goals. Short graduates this year and so ends his faithful services to the team. COACH HARRY THOMAS YODER Y Mr. Yoder worked diligently and faiithfully to make his team a strong one. The results of the season speak well for his ability to coach a winning team. Coach Yoder was ably assisted by Mr. Wright. The season as a whole was the best in the history of the school. llllllllllllllllllllIIIIIIllllllllllllllIllllIllllIlllllllllllllIllllllllllIllllllllIIIIIIllllIllllllllIIlllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllllllllIllllllllIllllIIIIIIllllllllIIIIIIlllillllllIIIHIIIIIllIIIIIIIlllllllllIlllIllllIlllIIIIIIIIIIIHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII TheReflector MN A-g Y Y A -i A-V g g H K -g g P2ge80 A RETRCSPECT GE THE GIRLS' BASKET BALL T was unanimously agreed by all concerned to continue our work in Girls' Basket Ball, even though Miss Perkins, our former coach, could not be with us. Miss Carson kindly consented to undertake the job and called us out to practice as soon as the season opened. The fact that all but one of last year's team responded, promised a very successful season for us. Among the numerous new participants, Miss Car- son found some valuable material and at once put the team in order. Florence Har' ley was given the place of side center, and Martha Swihart qualified for a forward. Later, Freda Beck ranked high as a guard. The schedule of 13 games was nearly the same as we had played last year, but in contrast this team has been the most successful of preceding years according to games won and points made. This success is accounted for by the teamwork of the girls and of their cofoperation with the coach. Some of the girls qualified for sweaters and Florence Harley made the enviable record of having played all of every game. We regret that, as we did not play Columbia City, we cannot claim the title of county champs this year but we are consoled by the excellent record made in the tournaments by our boys' team. We lay down our fighting togs in which we fought so nobly for the honor of S. W. H. S., to dream of the team of '26 that will carry on the standard we have set for them. -Bernice Snyder, '25. GIRLS' SCHEDULE Vvolf Lake--13---South Whitley-9-There, Nov. 7 In our first game we were thrown up against a wall of Acorn-feds and were able to do nothing. A game that showed us we would have to do better in the fu' ture. North Manchester-6-S. W.-13-There Nov. 7 We completely outplayed the Manchester girls from startwto finish. The half ended 1OfO in our favor. The team work in this game showed that the team had been getting good coaching and careful practice. Washington Center-15-S. W.-16-There, Nov. 14 This was perhaps the most exciting game of the season. Victory at no time was certain. We landed on the top by one point after a close and fast fight.

W.-12-There, Nov. 21 Our line up in this game was somewhat weakened by the absence of Mary and Dorothy. Considering this and the strength of Clear Creek's team, we played good ball and were proud of the few points we did make. Bippus-14-S. W.-13-Here, Nov. 26 This game was fairly fought from start to finish. The scoring wavered first in our favor then in theirs. Near the close of the game, Bippus made a free throw that placed them in the lead. We had the chance to even the score but failed. North Manchester-18-S. W.-19-Here, Dec. 5 Again we won over North Manchester but by a much closer margin than bef fore. ' Andrews-6-S. W.-12-Here, Dec. 20 We doubled the score on Andrews in a slow and easy victory. One of our illusf trous guards-to break the monotony-was put off on fouls. Washington Center-18-S. W.-19--Here, Jan. 9 Again in an exciting game we beat Washington Center by a one point margin. These one point games seem to be a fad with us. just so the one point is on our side! Sidney--17-S. W.-29-There, Jan. 16 A good foot ball game! Sidney was determined to win and played like they meant it. Mary Walter played forward and made a very fine showing at that po- sition. Though handicapped by playing in an overfheated room, we won by the largest score made this year. Blue-25-Vlfhite--2-Here, Jan. 23 A good practice game for the first team and a tryout for the second. ' Wolf Lake-20--S. VU.-8--Here, Feb. 6 One more we are reminded that cornbread should be placed on our diet. This is the only team that has defeated us twice. Clear Creek-5-S. VV.-12-Here, Feb. 13 Friday l3th! Unlucky for Clear Creek. Even our luck was bad concerning shots, but we beat them to the tune of 12 to 5. lvle held them to no field goals un- til the last quarter. Bippus--11---S. W2-12-There, Feb. 20 This was the best game of the season. We had prepared a fight but we couldn't get used to making baskets in their hall until the last half of the game. A basket was made by one of our forwards just two seconds before the whistle blew. That placed us on top by one point. The side pass developed by us worked well in this game. Sidney-9-S. VV.-14--Here, Feb. 27 We crowned our season by Winning the last game with Sidney. The fact that a Sidney forward made 5 out of 6 shots on free throws, did not daunt us for we kept them from making goals and they are what counted up. This season has proven the results of perservance and good coaching.

The Superintendf ent, Principal, boys' and girls' coaches, and five High School members comprised the group. During the year the Board did all possible to encourage good sportmanship among the students and teams. I In an early meeting it was decided to have a pair of yell leaders who could ably conduct the cheering and maintain the enthusiasm of the students. The names of Justus Walpole and Eli Casner were decided upon. Alice Day was chosen secref tary of the organization. At the last of the year new suits of attractive design and pattern were purchasf ed for the boys. At the close of the year, awards were made to those of the teams who had met certain conditions. This year the plan of using season tickets was tried with Wsuccess. A stirring campaign for the sale of the tickets to pupils and fans was made. This not only gave the Athletic Association a ready supply of money, but also saved money for the purchasers and encouraged attendance at the games. The Board feels that its work has been rewarded by the fine work and response of the teams and student body. I I II I I I IIIII IISIIIIII IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII Ill
