Volume IV Published by the JUNIOR CLASS of Tolleston School Gary, Indiana BOARD OF EDUCATION Leslie I. Combs, President May A. Patterson, Secretary J. A. Craig, M.D., Treasurer FOREWORD Friendship is the theme of this year's publication of our annual Friendliness is one of the essential traits of character; therefore, we pause to look at examples of great friendships in the past, to search within ourselves for those qualities which they possessed, and to appre- ciate more fully the friends we have come to look upon as fortifications of our lives. To all the friends whom the spirit of Tolleston has encircled and drawn to us, we dedicate this issue of the PIONEER. DAVID AND JONATHON David was a shepherd lad of Bethlehem!te. He is spoken of in the Bible as having a beau- tiful countenance and goodly to look upon. He won the recognition of King Saul by killing the giant, Goliath. ka a result, Saul's son, Jonathon, and David became fast friends. David bacame so popular that Saul became jealous and deter- mined to take his life. From this time until Saul's death, David was obliged to keep hi3 whereabouts hidden from the angry king. Jonathon stood between his father and David, and often ltd risked his own life in order to save that of his friend. SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS William A. Wirt OUR PRINCiPAI J. W.

DAMON AND PYTHIAS The love of Damon and Pythias, recorded in popular legend, is universally re- garded as the highest ideal of friendship. Pythias had been condemned to death by Dionysius, tyrant of Syracuse. He secured permission to leave the city to put his affairs in order while Damon offered him- self as a pledge for hi3 friend’s return and to suffer death himself in place of Pythias should the latter fail to keep his promise. Pythias, unexpectedly delayed, arrived just in time to save r Damon from death. Dionysius so admired the spirit of friendship animating the two that he immediately pardon- OUTWITTED He drew a circle that shut me out— Heretic, rebel, a thing to flout. But Love and I had the wit to win: We drew a circle that took him in. --Edwin Markham Class of 1937 ........

Binding CLASS (P 1937 The Junior Class of Tolleston has tried this year to contri- bute to all school activities with real school spirit. The school term began with the election of class officers and sponsors. The officers are George Perzo, president; Karriette Sobotko, vice president; and Irene Roerg, secretary-treasurer. The sponsors are Mrs. Lela Plant, Miss Esther Ennis, and Coach E. J. Devitt. Both the boys and girls of our class have gone out for ath- . letics with more enthusiasm than ever. All the winners in the handball tournaments, Edward Fabrici, Phyllis Bielak, Bernice Brugos, and Molly Odorizzi, are in the Junior Class. The Junior girls, by defeating the Sophomores and Freshmen, became the champion captain ball team. Six of the eight boys on the first basketball team are juniors; Andy Guba, 3ert Mesarch, John Bartos, Roy Carlson, John Bardov'sky, and Mike Tall. On the football squad we have seven representatives: Albert Dawson, Andy Guba, Edward Roskowski, Roy Carlson, John Bardowsky, William Waichulis, George Reside, Rex Atchison, Peter Someson, and Edward Fabrici. Under the directibn of Miss Yost, a successful operetta, THE MYSTERIOUS PEDDLER was presented. These Juniors participated in it; Phyllis Bielak, Eileen Romine, Harriette Sobotko, Thelma Strange, Emily padol, Dorothea Smoczynski and Eleanor Romanowski. Our Student Council has a majority representation of Juniors. They are George Perzo, Bernice 3rugos, Wendell Bean, Grace Rapmond, George Reside and Vera Roski. After a few successful matinee dances given by the class, we closed our school year with the annual Junior Prom on May 23. The committee responsible for making this event a success consisted of Harriette Sobotko, Eleanor Romanov ski and Edward Roskov ski. The Junior class is very proud of the class artists, John Arden and Casimer Uorwaish. John Arden made a design which was accepted by the Student Council for our permanent school seal. It is used on the rings which the Juniors purchased this year, and it is also embroidered on the sleeves of the new band uniforms. Casimer Norv aish headed the PIQUEER art committee of which he, John Arden, Mary Belle, Mary Slota and Helen Waite are members. -1- CLASS OF 36” CLASS OP fcc39” CLASS OPfPAO John Andrey, ’’Chick” College Preparatory Course Latin Club Concert Band PIONEER Staff TOLLY TUBS Reporter Winner of Sweater-Band Joe Antos College Preparatory Course PIONEER Staff John Arden College Preparatory Course TOLLY TIMES Staff PIONEER Staff Designer of Tolleston School Seal Michael Babinchak General Course Concert Band v inner of Sweater-3and John Bardov sky Secretarial Course 3asketball Football dinner of Sweater-Athletics V en dell Bean - • — College Preparatory Course Student Council Latin Club Concert Band PIONEER Staff Vinner of Sv eater-Band PEP ASD HARMONY Marion Ballogg, Worm Secretarial Course TOLLY TUBS Publication Staff Captain Ball—Champion Team G•A A Josephine Bartkus College Preparatory Secretarial Course Latin Club Consul TOLLY TUBS Reporter - PIONEER Staff - Hal-1 Gu£ d • • - - — • Bernice Brugos Secretarial Course Student Council Sophomore Play PEP AND HAHKCNY Track, ’35 Captain Ball G« A.

The class sponsors are Miss Sarlandson, Kiss Waggoner, and Mr. Bohn. The students heading the Freshman class are the following: president, Peter Smar; vice president, Dorris Carlson; and secretary-treasurer, Helen Fife. Cur Fre3hmen have taken an unusually great part in the activities of the school. In the Booster Club v e have Ruth Kleminski, George IIfussie, Alvin Luzzato, and Kike Udich. Active workers in the Student Council are Adele Taub and John Warieko. Imagine the Fall Carnival without WILD NELL 0? TH3 PLAINS in which Mary Jane Strickland, George ’tussle, Richard Mu.sgrave, Srika Wienert, and James Ireland took part. Similarly, we have worked in the operetta and other dramatic and musical productions of which our Freshman play, HANS 3RPIKRR, was our very own project. We have among us a number of fine athletes: William Grennis, Merle Hodge, Andy Wasil, Lincoln Harris, George Mussie, and Tony Kolodziej, among the boys; and Ruth Kleminski, Helen Fife, Josephine Stevenson, Rose aichulis, Dorothy Garra, Martha Stack, Katie Zuk, Julia Baran, Georgidean Zorak, Jane Pohorelec, Mary 3oto, Mary Hort.yk, Clara Enger, Lucille Kalinov ski, Irene Kratkoczki, Grace Yarutis, and Helen Apostol, among the girls. 3eside3 our two matinee dances, v e gave a Freshman Frolic on April 24, a fitting climax to our social year. We hope that this large group of Freshmen will carry on and help make the name of Tolleston School well known in scholarship, dramatics, athletics, and social life.

Emerson -30- - ANTONIO AND BASSMIO Antonio, a merchant of Venice, borrowed money from Shylock, his enemy. He borrowed the money for Ms dear friend, 3assanio, and signed a pledge at Shylock’s sug- gestion that if the sum were not repaid in three months, the for- feit should be a pound of flesh to be cut off nearest the merchant’s heart. Time passed; Antonio’3 busi- ness failed; Shy lock asked the court3 to allow him. to take the forfeiture. Juat before the sen- tence was pronounced, Antonio ex- pressed in the following words his willingness to pay his friendrs debt with his life. Givo mo your hand, Bossonic: faro you wellI Grieve not that I am fallen to this for you; Bepont not that you shall lose your friend. And he repents not that he pay3 your debt; For if the Jew do cut but deep enough.

PIQi.TER In 1933, the first issue of the PIONEER was published. It was decided at that tine that our annuals should be written and published entirely by the students, aided by faculty sponsors. The reason for such a decision is that we receive actual experience in publishing a book from the first steps in planning to the production of the finished product. Such a procedure is also more economical. We take pride in our efforts and try each year to improve on the last ono. A professor of the Indiana University has said that such an annual is an ideal one and is being used more and more throughout the country. This year, the publication of the PICNEEH was made a project of the Junior English class. Each person of the staff was made responsible for a certain part of the work. By creating such a ror.l life situation as writing and publishing a book, the staff has derived both enjoyment and bonefit. b.

P1- TOLLBSTO?: SCHOOL LI3RARY This year about two -hundred and twenty-five now so ok a nave bean added to the library, poking a total of about 2843 books. The books that were added y ere (jhief- ly reference books. Not many fiction books have been added because students may get most of this kind of reading from the public and branch libraries. Jiiss Coblentz has put pockets and cards in the backs of the books and this makes book circulation, may check out books period of time. The card is an attractive to the library year. Here are the various books, are as many as five for each book, 7hen cataloging is completed, will be able to find catalog any material title, or subject. Of the twenty- taken in the library possible better Each student for a certain catalog case new addition equipment this filed cards for Sometimes there to ten cards this work of the students through the by author, two magazines the most popular Good Hem bekeep- are American Home, • • . wv 4 i mg, National Geographic, Popular Mechanics, Popular Science, Popular Aviation, Readers Digest, and Literary Digest. Throughout the year Miss Coblentz has had four very efficien assistants; namely, Helen Bartkus, Adele Taub, Florence Morse, and Elizabeth Splitgerber. These girls are responsible for keep- -44- ing books in order on the shelves, filing cards, and doing other routine work which is necessary in the library. During the year it has been necessary to limit the use of the library chiefly to high school students because of crowded conditions. Other grades have been served in a small way by sending groups of books on certain subjects to the rooms at the requests of the teachers. IV. SATURDAY SCHOOL Saturday School in academic subjects is offered to students who wish to make up or strengthen their work. Special subjects are offered for recreation and en- joyment in pursuing a hobby or an interest. V. NIGHT SCHOOL Tolleston offers an education to adults who are unable to attend day school by offering instruction every Tuesday and Thursday nights from seven to nine o’clock. Many have found this a wonderful opportunity. Miss Bancroft teaches sewing to a group of interested ladies. Miss 'Jaitkus has charge of all commercial work which includes typing, shorthand, and bookkeeping. Sports of all kinds are super- vised by Coach Devitt?and Mr. Flick teaches v oodshop. Every Thursday we have Community Night which i3 conducted by Mi3s earner. Many have found this a fine evening of entertain- ment D Special Subjects I.

III. Athletics 1• BOYS' ATHLETICS Although our records in athletics do not stand aiQong ihe highest, we have derived many benoficial traits from clean, sportsmanlike contests which will help mold finer characters for the future. The new basketball gymnasium, which was under construction for some time, was completed this winter and used to good advantage by the boys. Following are the athletic teams, scores, and other items: ' 3 ASKSTB A L L A record we are striving to hold: TOLLESTON'S 3ASKETBALL T3AM HAS NEVER BEEN DEFEATED ON ITS OWN FLOOR.

This is partly explained by the starting of the Cr.A.A. This organization was begun by Miss Smith, the gymnasium teacher. The first meeting was held on November 18,19 5, and follows: vice effleers were elected. They are as Irene Boerg, president; Betty ? fe£ura, president; Josephine Malizzo, secretary; and Margaret Stepita, treasurer. Immediately, practice was begun for a handball tourna- ment. After about two weeks of practice, the tournament was held. The singles were won by Mollie Odorizzi. The doubles were won by Bernice Brugos and Phyllis Bielak. Those who received second and were Emily Winges, Pith Kleminski Malizzo and Eileen Romine. ball tournament was then begun. After several interesting and exciting games the Junior team emerged victorious.

A point system is followed in G.A.A. For every team that is made, points are received. One thousand points entitles a girl to buy a pin. Fifteen hundrod entitles her to a sweater and a letter. A basketball tournament was hold in the boys gym- nasium, and the Junior team won. aft r,jl close final grjne. third Josephine A Captain -50- The girls of Tolleston went to Froobel and were defeated in volley ball Tolleston defeated Lev Wallace in three games of Captain ball.

ART Figure drawing, pose-work, water color, and outdoor sketching were some of the projects taken up by the art classes Students, if they wished, were permitted to sketch landscapes outdoer8 in warm weather, leaving, design,and still life wore a few of the second semester problems. Some of the most interesting work was done around Christmas time. Pupils made lovely leather coin purses, nut dishes, waste-paper baskets, and wator-color land- scapes. Many of these were given away as gifts. ART SALON Our third floor art salon has a number of beautiful paintings and four pieces of sculpture. The paintings are titled as follows: The Dune Stream by Dudley Haze in the Hills by Bossire Indiana Winter by Aldrich The Road Through the Woods by Bundy Spring Morning by Griffith 3oquette Ranch by 3iereau Chief Little Bison . by Leighton The Road to Four Mills by Young The White Horse by Gleman There are also tv o bas-reliefs named PAUL REVEREfS RIDE, and SIGNING OF THE DECLARAT I OH OF I!D)S?En)SNCE. A bust of Lincoln and a statue of the 7IFGSL VICTORY, silver cups, and medals are also on exhibit. HOTS TRIAL ARTS Tolleston School now offers woodship, metal sh°PT mechanical drawing under the direction of Hr. Flick, . r. Skaggs, and Mr. Bohn. Now that the shops aro 1 orner, it is possible’to accomodate more pupils, and the boys .ore becoming more smiled, in industrial work. In wood shop, the hoys are making clever tables, smoking stands, modern foot- stools, corner-shelves, etc. The boys are eager to produce the finest pieces of work. Each boy taking mechanical drawing must first complete the activities suggested in the mechanical drawing instruction book. Then he may choose to follow any of these phases of mechanical drawing to complete his work: machine, structural, architectural, C.E., topographical, electrical, and aeronautical drawing. The boys taking this work have benefited our clubs that soonsor dances by producing their advertising for them. In metal shop, the boys receive instruction in elementary electricity, gas engines, and Diesel engines. The plan of the course is to furnish the boy with the proper information for home uso. it is not our plan to turn out mechanics. In spite of the many handicaps we nave had this year, much has been accomplished and interest has run very high. We are looking forward to a much greater success next year when wo will have a well oouipoed. new shop. ' • ‘-Qla 5C0!«Cfc!IC3 Thi3 year, due to the large number of girls taking sowing, there are six high school classes and one 8A and one 7A class. The girls are not requirod to make any spooial kind of garments, but they are asked to complete a certain number of problems. The girls have given one auditorium program already this year and are planning to give a style show toward tho last of tho school torra. Cooking i3 also offered a3 a high school subject. The girls arc instructed how to cook, sorve, and arrange tho tables. They also are taught table etiquette. . V 1 CO! IS PCI AL ’ORIC Due to the growth of tho school, the choice of subjects fh the commercial fiold is much more extensive this year than it has boon previously. -58- The purpose of thi3 depart- ment is to train for the business world the student who does not plan to go to college. This course furnishes him with sufficient know- ledge in this practical science so that he can begin to build his career in business or extend, his learning to higher education. The present course offers one year’s training in bookkeeping, one year of general business • •’ science, and two years of type- writing and shorthand. Commercial geography and business arithmetic are offered for one semester. One very attractive feature of the commercial course now being offered in the public schools is the vocational diploma. Any student having completed twelve semesters study in certain specified subjects of this field is entitled to this award. The graduate student who has earned this diploma and goe3 out to seek employment will bo found well equipped and capable and will have little difficulty in convincing any prospective employer of his efficiency and ability to handle an office position successfully. The Commercial Department has proved extremely popular as is evidenced by the great number of pupils in each of it3 classes. Many of these students are doing their best to earn vocational diplomas in thi3 field. E. PRODUCTIONS I. I.
