€ i i i i I 0fiUratimt This annual is dedicated to Major-General Edwin Davis Patrick, USA, who was editor of the first annual ever to be published in this high school. This annual, called the “Rambler,” appeared in 1912. General Patrick was killed in the line of duty near Manila on March 15, 1945, while commanding the 6th Infantry Division. His death prompted this remark from General Douglas MacArthur, He was one of the most gifted and distinguished leaders in the Southwest Pacific.” Because General Patrick was this type of man, we have dedicated this annual to him, hoping that we may, by recalling the standards he set forth for living a good life, achieve some of the many great qualities he possessed.

rJswem Mi One word can describe the years we have spent in Tell City High School. That word is growth. During these four short years we have matured physically, developed mentally, and broadened spiritually. Yes the word “Growth” certainly embodies our high school days. More than that, we have set as our goal the continuance of this growth. We realize that such perpetual growth is necessary for a full and happy life, and we are thankful that our short stay in TCHS has fitted us to continue to grow in mind and spirit. Our motto, “Heights Beckon Us,” is the essence of our desire for constant growth. Here in the sheltering halls of our alma mater, we have tried our abilities and realize that we have accomplished this much, and can hope to accomplish more, only by uninterrupted growth. For these reasons we have chosen as our theme the noun “Growth.” May we live up to the ideals for which it stands! SAGITTARIUS, 1948

ADMINISTRATI ON PAUL SCHAEFER. CLARENCE DAVIS. OSCAR BOGER. The Board of Education is comprised of the above people. These men have given freely of their time in order that we may enjoy the privilege of attending one of the best ten schools in Indiana. These three men set the school policy, along with Mr. Dixon, and secure the best possible faculty advisers for the students of Tell City High School. It is largely through their efforts that we are now able to boast of the high standards of Tell City High. We take this opportunity to publicly express our ap- preciation for all of the many things they have done for us. Mr. Dixon attends to the administration of all four schools in Tell City, a job that requires efficiency and know- ledge. In the past years Mr. Dixon has proven that he pos- sesses all the requisites for an ideal Superintendent of Schools. Although Jean Wetzel is not a member of the faculty, she fills a very important pos- ition. As secretary to Mr. Dixon, she relieves him of most of the routine work con- nected with his job. N.
