Future Sarah Bernharclls XVhile looking over some old newspaper clippings the other day I came across one article, published last spring. just criminal! HORSEBURCEltSl Imagine me in a bun. Reading about horseburgers reminded me of llllllllJUl'g6l'S which brought me right back home to one of the oldest organizations in the school, the Dramatic Club. In October my amateur thespians were using my place of abode regularly getting ready for their big pro- duction, Little IVUIIICH. XVhen that big night in Novem- ber finally rolled around, the play was such a success I clapped so hard I knocked a nail out of my shoe. In February displaying different talent, the girls gave The Dormitory Dubl' for convocation. That made two swell plays in one year. Little Women Row I: Sue Pearce, Cynthia Campbell.

You know I've decided that being a school spirit isn't such a soft job after all. Capable help is capable help but 309 kids are almost 310 responsibilities. They're all so different too. Letis take the Sopho- mores for example. They all have talents galore and are represented in practically every club in school. The other day I went trotting in to hear the choir sing and I counted ten Sophomores on the very Brst count. George Vance is in Madrigal too. The 2 year olds are represented in band as well as choir. The library would be a duller place without them. Kathryn Brockman, Norma Hackleman, Rosemary Doran, Charles Cantwell and Fred WVingert all aid Miss Stout in our store house of knowledge. I'm sorta partial to the office force because they scratch my back when the rush isnit on, so it's with pride I mention that Pat Monce and Doris Lewis both work in the schoolis Sanctum sanctorum. When the l7.B.L.A. was decorating my stables for the F.B.T. Dance, I noticed Wanda Armentrout, Dory Medenwald, Nancy Heston, Bar- Wanda Armentrout, nomenclator of the Latin Club, tells me that her classmates are interested in Latin. Kathryn Brockman serves as amanuensis Qsecretary, that isp for this organization. Mr. Foster tells me that Kathy makes a line debater also and that the same can be said of jim Breen. The Sophomore girls had a fine team in the G.A.A. basketball tourney this year! Although they dropped the linal game of the play- offs, they fought hard all the way. Speaking of girls' athletics reminds me the fellows looked pretty good in that field too. Harold Kuykendall and George Vance helped me keep my prestige by working hard along with the other fellows to retain the County Football and Basketball Championships. The rest of the fellows didnit make either of the varsity squads but never- theless they were always right in there playing on the second squads, working as student managers, or just plain yelling at the games. Yelling reminds me of a pretty little Sophomore girl who just com- pleted her second year on the yelling squad. Yes, sir, Dee Covell is FUR THE CLASS UF 1951? VIM. VIGUR, AND VITALITY bara Richards, and Mary Lou floss working hard on the card tables. Speaking of cards reminds me of the time some sophomore fellows challenged me to a card game. I had a terrible time making them give me back my saddle blanket. The other day I happened i11 on Dramatic Club meeting when Nancy Heston was giving her Student Council report. fGeorge Vance and jim Breen are two more 2 year olds in the Councill While watching the meeting I saw that the Sophomore girls are interested in Dramatics. Nancy Heston and Barbara Richards both did a fine job in Little W'0men. really something worth yelling about. Of course it was purely due to coincidence that the Sophomores lost to the Seniors in the final game of the intramural tourney. After looking at so many individual achievements this class should be looked at as an organization. Under the guidance of their spon- sor, Mr. Foland, and leadership of Tom Sutherland, president, this enterprising class sold china footballs with County Champs inscribed upon them. Sparkie really is proud to say each individual member of this class is making the words vim, vigor, and vitality mean the Class of '51.

This game of the round hall is indeed a fascinating one, and lmasliethall, as it is played in Indiana, is nothing' short of llysleria. I had three boys, jack Mavliugh, lionuy King, and .Nl XViechers, from last year's lirst live for Coach Nay to form the nucleus of another championship team. I also had from last yearls team Ray Stewart, Dave Boyer, Jael: Vaughn, and IIarold Kuykendall, who would play a prominent role in Coach Nay's plans to defend the Marion County 4-team, and Sectional crowns.
