f -v6 ZocA S TIGER t953 WARSAW HIGH SCHOOL WARSAW. INDIANA Junior-Senior Prom The social season reached its peak with the Junior-Senior Prom. The girls dressed in fluffy formals provided a colorful array for their escorts. With sparkling eyes and faces aglow, they ascended the “Stairway to the Stars” which wound its way to the new Elks Building, where the orchestra provided strains of dreamy music. The coronation of Marcia Hartman as queen and Jim Armington as king with Carol Boyer and Charles Kerr as attendants was the climax of the festivities. After an evening filled with entertainment and dancing, the students drifted back with stars in their eyes which will shine down through the years as memories of our delightful Prom. Stairway to the Stars Foreword Page Six TIGER ANTICS The “Tigers” are at it again. For four hectic years they have been “acting up”; but this year their trainers have managed to snap some pictures while they were performing their tricks. Here is a candid record of the wild and wooly antics of the “Tigers of 1953”. Contents FACULTY Page 8 CLASSES Page 14 ACTIVITIES Page 48 SPORTS Page 64 Dedication The senior class of '53 wish to dedicate this, their ’53 Tiger, to Mr. Sanders, whose kindness, patience, and desire to fulfill his duties to the utmost of his ability are seldom found in one person. We know it has been his main objective through his drivers’ training course to do his share in saving the lives of our fellow students through proper education for the beginning driver, and we feel certain that he has succeeded in his endeavor. Seldom is there found a man who can fill a position and within one season produce the results that he did with our football team. With this dedication go our best wishes to a man that forever shall rank high in the minds of each and every one of us, Mr. Sanders. MR. FRANK SANDERS Faculty Our school's been blessed this year ice think: And of all the splendid features. None ranks higher in our minds Than the service of our teachers. Superintendent MR.

CLASS POEM O Happy Days Those days of sunshine, days of hope. Few under cloudy sky, All days we’ll always treasure, Were our days in Warsaw High. Farewell, farewell, oh happiness, Now fled with days gone by; Farewell, oh days, oh happy days, Our days in Warsaw High. The friends we’ve had, the joy we knew, In our minds shall never die; They’ll live forever, evermore, Our days in Warsaw High. Those days of thought and learning, Days that seldom saw us cry, Days that long we shall remember. Our days in Warsaw High. Hut farewell, farewell, oh happy days, For parting now is nigh; And as we go won’t you come too, O Happy Days in Warsaw High? —Marvin Mahoney.

The date of the big performance is the school year of 1949 and 1950. The music of the circus band, which is also known as the Warsaw Junior High School Hand, has stopped. The grand entry is over, and now the crowd waits tensely for the show to begin. There is a fanfare from the trumpets as the voice on the loud speaker calls attention to the first ring. The ringmaster, Mrs. Ellen Kiefer, steps to the center and announces the acts receiving top billing in that ring. Joan Senour, a newcomer to the show, is chosen by her fellow performers to receive star billing as their president. Other performers receiving top rating are Coraethel Alspaugh, our vice-president; Janet Olds, who is a top notch juggler, is selected to take care of our money. J. Alan Morgan and Russell Sansbury are chosen to represent us in our business affairs. The program, titled the Jr. Press, is edited by Reverly See. She is assisted by Joann Sable. Janet Olds takes care of publicity by being fea- ture editor. Larry Woodling is in charge of the acrobats since he is sports editor. Garnett Hyde keeps us posted on the private lives of the performers. She is in charge of the debris. To celebrate our smash performance we have a celebration in the armory. Since this is an all school party, our understudies are also invited. We use a radio station as our theme. As we get back to work we see that some of our acrobats are distinguishing themselves. The strong man team wins four and loses two during the gridiron season, and the versatile jugglers win seven and lose five on the basketball floor. Still other male performers take part in intramural snorts, while some of the girls go into G. A. A. Girls chorus under the direction of Miss Voirol is another act that gets first class billing. During the winter months we take a short voyage on a ship named “The Drifting Dreamer”, captained by J. Alan Morgan. As the season draws to an end, we have a party in honor of two of our managers, Mr. Leffel and Mr. Omart. It is at this party that Garnett Hyde and Russell Sansbury win Page Twenty-Seven the dancing cup. And then the time comes to start on tour. All of us in the show and several of our managers hoard buses bound for Chicago. At Chicago we view some of the more educational places of interest, such as Museum of Science and Industry, Natural History Museum and the Aquarium. Our stay at Warsaw Junior High School is at an end. Next stop: Warsaw Senior High School. As we enter the big top for this performance, we see that the new location of the circus is at Warsaw Senior High School. The posters inform us that the show is to l e here from September, 1050, until May, 1951. Upon walking into the big top. we find that the surroundings have changed a great deal. First we see that the circus music is now furnished by the Warsaw Senior Hand. We have also taken on a completely new crew of managers for this production. As the music stops and the spotlight goes on we see that we are now performing in ring two and that our ringmaster is Miss Jean Stellingwerf. Betty Armstrong. Judy Clutter, Dick Katte, Beverly Platt, and Frances Roberts are the new performers who appear in the second ring with us this year. Looking at the progam, we see also that some new names have received top hilling. Larry Woodling is elected president: Joan Senour vice-president: Susan Hay is secretary; Sue Firestone is treasurer: and Russell Sans-bury and Dick Hyde are elected to the student council. This year there are new organizations. There is the program, now called the “High Times”. Senior High School Girls Chorus and Choir: Dramatics Club is open to all people taking speech. Other organizations are G. A. A., F. F. A.. F. H. A., and Latin Club. This year we see that the strongmen have another very successful season by winning six games and losing only two, and tieing in the Northeastern Indiana Conference Championshin. The versatile jugglers come up with an even nine wins and nine losses. In February the jugglers win the sectional tourney but are defeated by Elkhart in the regional. The track and baseball teams also do very well. Intramural sports are again enjoyed by several of our male performers. One of our classmates is chosen by the rest of the troop to serve as a cheerleader. She is Beverly See. As the show closes and the troupe starts for summer quarters. we are all looking forward to the next performance which promises to be a big year for all of us. As this performance begins we can see that there is very little difference in the scenery over that of last year. The time of this performance is from September, 1951. until May, 1952. As we enter the big top, we find that we have been ad- vanced into the third ring and that Mr. Rol ert Stafford is now our ringmaster. Several performers join us during our performance in the third ring. They are Holly Burt, Lois Clayton, Emma Jean Ileacox, Betty Kaim, and Sam Joyner. Joanne Sable, who has been with us since the show began, leaves us this year when she moves to Chicago. Looking at the billings, we find that Larry Woodling is again given top honors. Other officers are Pick Shaffer, who is vice-president; Janet Olds, secretary; Janice Gowin, treasurer; and Russell Sansbury and Conrad Anderson elected to the student council. This year we undertake several new and different projects. One of the most memorable is our selling at the athletic performances. It is hard, trying work; but if we are to do it over. I doubt if anyone who sells wouldn’t want to do it again. Speaking of athletics, our acrobats do very well for themselves this year. The strongmen win six. lose one. and tie one. They again tie for the N. E. I. C. championship. The versatile iugglers, under the supervision of a new coach. Mr Norris, win nineteen and lose only eight. We again win the sectional tournament but are defeated by Knox in an overtime game at the regional tournament. Another new experience for ns is the production of our Junior Class Play. We present the play, “Cheaper By The Dozen”. J. Alan Morgan, Janet Olds, Kay McCoy, and Jack Loser are only a few of the people in the large cast. Jo Ann Reed and Pat Tyner head the business department. Then sadness enters the picture as one of our fellow troupers, John Hedington is killed in a motorcycle accident. Ami then the social event of the year, the thing we’ve all been looking forward to. Prom! This year’s prom is held at the beautiful new Elks’ building. The theme is “Stairwav to the Stars”. Jim Arming-ton and Marcia Hartman are crowned King and Queen of the prom. As this performance draws to a close, we look back on many hapny memories, and look ahead to our next and final performance at Warsaw High School. This, our final performance begins under the big top with a look of confidence of old time performers. This year our act will take place in ring numl er four, the main ring. Mrs. Mamie Braddock is our ringmaster this season For the third time in a row we find that Larry Woodling is again given star billing. Sam Joyner is elected vice-oresident: Janice Gowin is elected secretary, and Elaine Long is our treasurer. Dick Shaffer is chosen to serve on the student council along with Russell Sansbury who is serving his fourth vear as a reoresentative. Betty Dirck, Marlene Keppler, and Max Stackhouse are three new per-(Continued on Page 36 Column 1 1 Class of 1953 Will We, the seniors of “53”, being of unsound mind and body, do will to the class of “54” our old beat up lockers, our lovers' corners, our many prized possessions, which have been carved in our memories through our years at Warsaw High, and our beloved faculty, with our best wishes and much regret.

I, Rene Shue, do will my temper to some “I.cs Meres Rouges.” They are also “red-hot!” (Confimu'd on Page 36 Column 1) Prophecy of 53” “Now hear this! Now hear this! Transport leaving at gate fifty-three at three o’clock”. The voice booms over the loud speaker. I pick up my grip and move toward the transport. After finding a seat and assuming a comfortable position, 1 drift off to sleep; for soon I am no longer on my way to the moon but am transported back to one of the greatest days of my life, graduation of “53”. After that there is a black void. World War III, a period of panic, crisis, oblivion, darkness, and anguish; and then a part of the earth has been destroyed. Since a part of the earth is over populated, the class of “53” has been chosen to colonize ... on the moon! ! ! The sudden jolt of the transport tells me that I have arrived. Picking up my grip, 1 stagger to the door. Amid the aroma and green cheese, burned by the rockets, I see through the green mist the mayor, DICK KATTE, better known as the man in the moon, followed by his wife and three dignified little brats. Behind him are many of the citizens of the colony. As I look over the crowd, I see DENNIS RUNYAN still wearing his homberg hat and Dewey button. Another dignitary attending my arrival is DOUGLAS WHITESELL, a member of the senate. He is very important to his party as he’s the only one in it. He is an independent, independent. PAULA SUE SHUNK is his private secretary, and I do mean private! I am now taken on a tour of the town. I notice several new businesses have been established in the “Lunar Boom Town”. HOLLY BURT, for instance, is doing a terrific business running a hat shop. She wanted a name that would fit her personality so she named it “The Passion Box.” RUSSELL POOR is now in the shoe repairing business. I hear he gets along with them just fine. He can do what he pleases and gets no response. Here is HAROLD “Speed” HILE, who runs the local used rocket lot. His saying is “Drive in. Chance it, and just try and get them back”. A very active sewing center is run by CORA-ETHEL ALSPAUGH. There is hardly enough gravity to keep the clothes here unless they are on. JOAN SENOUR is now making her living modeling for the sewing center. That is one way to lose weight, just don’t make enough money to eat. GLEN MARTIN is doing a thriving business as lawyer. We need one badly to handle the cases of the class of “53”. KAY McCOY is the proprietor of a men’s store. She specializes in “Tucks”. I hear she isn’t very well pleased with the one she has in stock. Between the other more modern buildings I see a shack which was one of the first businesses set up on the moon. It is a bookie joint run by KENNETH SCHAAF and CONRAD ANDERSON. Immediately across the street is RICHARD HEIM AN’S poultry shop featuring dressed chicks only. He has three capable assistants: IRENE RIGGENS, FRANCES ROBERTS, and BETTY VANATOR. At the “Strip”, JO ANN REED is playing in the Broadway hit with the assisting cast of JANET “More Bounce to the Ounce” OLDS and BEVERLY “Knock ’Em Flat” PLATT. Entering the theater, we see critic ROSE LA FOI.LETTE, who has just proved that “Forever Amber” is not about someone falling into a bucket of paint. RUTH JEAN ELLIOTT has started a yo-yo business as she is very well noted for keeping things on the string. A large building confronts me and I find it is a cradle factory run by BOB GEARHART and GARTH THOMPSON. These cradles are rain proof, shock proof, anti-magnetic but most of all they are guaranteed against cradle robbers. BETTY LEE FORRESTER runs a quick-way laundry next to DON FRUSH’S retired nurse’s home of which DORIS ELLIS. LOIS CLAYTON, EVA MAE GROAT, and MARY BAUMAN are charter members. The bathing suits made by RUTH ANN HAUTH have been quite in demand. It is due to her that people look at the moon during an eclipse. You see her bathing suits are made of nothing but shadows. During my tour I was escorted to the newspaper building just as the paper came off the press. The headlines of the “Moon News”, edited by GARNETT HYDE, declares that the colon BARB olony ARA tport IE for public dem- has finally decided to ex; GRUBBS and RICHARD HYD1 onstration of affections. The “Moon News” also features an “Advice to the Lovelorn Column” edited by the three lonely proprietors: MARTHA GOSHERT, SUSAN HAY, and SHIRLEY PIFER. I also read several other articles: one pertaining to BEVERLY SEE and THAMES BOWMAN'S howling business. They run a nursery for little cheerleaders. One of the most interesting hijchlijrhts featured in the paper tells that SAM JOYNER, due to his many activities in sports, has won the “Big Wheel Award” of the year while JACK LOSER, due to his activities in speech, has been named the “Little Spoke”. There is an advertisement of JANET WEIR-ICK’S rocket terminal. The vice-president and chief customer on her Muncie run is J. ALAN MORGAN. In the gossip column we see that GLEN LONGNECKER is still going with a girl on the earth. He is quite a long-necker. Also mentioned is BEVERLY DIRCK, the opera star. Surprising what the lack of gravity can do to raise her pitch. HELEN LEEK is married to Big Chief Running Water. They have three sons: Hot, Cold and Luke. Just as I leave the “Moon News” building, the Western Union boy, JOHN VANCE, brings news that HEINTZ WENZLAU is now chancellor of United Europe and he has appointed as Secretary of State, SABINE BARTELS. He also appointed his wife, GESINE SCHWERDTFE-GER, head of the Department of War. The time for one of the highest points of interest is now at hand. I am to attend the dedication of the cornerstone of the Lunar Institute of Technology, better known as Loony-Tech. LARRY WOODLING, since he was termed the eternal president of our class, has the distinguished honor of being layer of the cornerstone. It is lifted into position by TOM KONKLE, the great muscle man. Some of the faculty are also present at the ceremony. RAYMOND CREAKBAUM, havjng had six consecutive years of government in high school, is well qualified as professor of social sciences. SHIRLEY WOLFE is now professor of math here at Loony Tech. She knows all the angles. EARL RHUILEY is teaching physics now, as he can slap students’ backs as well as any other teacher. In the medical department of the university, GENE LEWIS is the magnificent head surgeon. His office is located on Slaughter Road and his wonderful assistant is the second Florence Nightingale, RENE Sell ’Em by the Dozen” SHUE. I find that JERRY CRALL isn’t able to attend the ceremony for he is working on an experiment to make the moon dark so his relatives on earth can get their potatoes planted. Speaking of potatoes, I am reminded that it’s almost dinner time. I travel on to the cafeteria where I find LEONA I'ASKEA and EVELV N STAHLEY, who are now the cooks at Loony Tech. If you think the food was bad in school, you should taste it now. In the cafeteria I see several coeds, one of whom is BARBARA “Cheesie” HIGGENS, who is right at home among all the green cheese. The moon being the closest to all heavenly bodies keeps coed CONNIE ELLIS busy looking to the earth to see if she can see her man. Other coeds are involved in making up mottos for their future. MARY LOU LONG’S is “It won’t be long now” while JANICE ANGLIN says, “It will lie long now”. Adjoining the cafeteria is a dorm, where LARRY BROWN. BEVERLY ADAMS, JOHN SCHUH. and BILLY ENIS, the technicians of the university, spend most of their time sleeping. These technicians are assisting JUANITA SE-COR, who is producing reducing pills. Her main employee is JOHN LATTA. He said the only thing slim about the deal is his pay check. Leaving Loony Tech, I hear a great clamoring and upon investigation I discover a carnival has come to the moon. On the way to the carnival I pass DICK SHAFFER’S junk yard. His chief customer is JANICE GOWIN, the ! est of hotrod drivers. She is one of his most frequent visitors junking her cars. I arrive at the carnival just in time to hear a crash by crash description of the stock car race by RUSSELL SANSBURY over Station WBUM which has finally acquired its hand cranked generator. JIM HEATON is the head crank. It is announced that PAT TYNER has entered the stock car races. She places 32nd out of 33, only because one of her pedals broke on her hopped up Packard. Coming in 33d is JIM WEST in his outdated iaouar. But coming out on top is EDDIE HATFIELD who wins by 6 lengths. LEO GROW is also making a fast living as a daredevil. Just as the race ends WAYNE MOSS comes in yelling fire! fire! and JUDY CLUTTER comes in with her fire water and Wayne is satisfied. I then pass around the midway and see BETTY ARMSTRONG as professional dumb-bell lifter. I stop at a soda stand to get some refreshments and find MARLENE KEPPLER and BETTY KAIN as the jerks! The chef at the stand is MARVIN MAHONEY whose specialty is dog gone good “Mahoney Baloney”. In front of a side show stands MARION WIGGINS, the proprietor, watching his wife.

Continuation of Class History sons joining the troupe this year. We also have three German exchange students with us. They are Sabine Bartels, Gesine Schwerdtfeger, and Heintz Wenzlau. Our strongmen really do us proud this year. They win eight and lose none to win the Northeastern Indiana Conference championship with flying colors. Perhaps the proudest and happiest person of all is Mr. Sanders, since this is his first year as head football coach. Thames Bowman and Jim West are elected as co-captains of the team. The basketball, baseball, and track teams all have very successful seasons. The band and choir give their fall and spring concerts, which are very well received. Norma Fawley is elected D. A. R. girl by the rest of the troupe. Garnett Hyde is chosen to l e editor of the program, which is still known as the “High Times”. Russell Sansbury is elected president of the band; Janet Olds, president of Dramatics Club; Beverly See, president of G. A. A.; Norma Fawley, president of F. H. A.; Ray Heiman president of F. F. A.; Joan Senour, to head the Art Club; and Pat Tyner, president of Ex Libris. Senior Class Play is a smash hit, and everybody has a wonderful time producing it. The play is followed by speech contests, Latin contest, English contest, and solo and ensemble contests. Then in rapid succession come senior skip day, club banquets, baccalaureate. Then comes an always-to-be-remembered prom held in the Elks’ building; and then the grand finale, commencement, our last performance under the big top at Warsaw High School; the last, but it is only the beginning of our greatest performance. As we enter the big top of life, we will make many new friendships, have many experiences, and many memories.

I, Larry Woodling. do will my brain to Miss Pfleiderer. I’m through with it, and she can set it on her desk for decoration. Continuation or Clots Prophecy SUSIE FIRESTONE, prepare for her dance of the seven veils. She is dancing to the music of a choir called the Six Spitten’ Sassy Song Singers of Sing Sing Cells under the direction of MAX STACKHOUSE. CHARLES FAWLEY accompanies them on the bag pipe. It seems the choir acquired its name from ELAINE LONG, MARJORIE BLACK and EDITH LAUGH LIN who are inmates in Sing Sing for stealing diamonds. I am coaxed into a fortune teller’s room and am told that MARLENE KELLY will be named as the Fairy . . . Queen and that MARILYN OLDFATHER is going to have 19 kids which will prove that she will no longer lie an old father but an old mother. SHIRLEY HOLBROOK has also changed her name from Holbrook to halfstream. We leave the palmist and whom should we see but JOEL “Cue Ball” HANEY who is now bald. Because of the color of his hair he explains, it has been quite in demand. Several famous movie stars have paid a total of $1 1,427.26 for locks of his hair. Just as he was ready to make a fortune he ran out of merchandise. After talking with Joel, we see NED “Stogie Smokie” SMITH, the general manager of the “Ruined Bruins” formerly known as the Cubs, and “Smiling” DEONE HIMES, his brilliant outfielder. Another great athlete of this time is ALLEN “Pogo HARTMAN. He now polevaults 40 ft. I see ELAINE BENNETT is married to Bob Gift and they have a slew of little presents. On my way to the home where I am to stay I see a few more shops. One of them is a beauty salon run by JEAN JOHNSON. She is the head hair pinner-upper. As I continue on my way I pass a home for old men, run by JOYCE MILLER, THELMA SMITH, BETTY DIRCK, BARBARA PLOTT-NER, and CAROLYN GAWTHROPE. Their motto is “We Cater to All Bachelors.” One of their star l oarders is WALTER “Doc” RUTHERFORD. I remember that back on the earth he always used to go hunting when there was a full moon. The staff tells me that they very seldom see him; for since he is up here, he is always hunting! What’s this? No. Surely not a horse on the Moon! Then I’m told that it is really true. EMMA JEAN HEACOX stowed one aboard so that she could become a sensation on the moon as “Wild Bill Hickock”. Passing a gas station, I see NORMA FAWLEY filling her rocket with “moon l eam gas”. She says it almost keeps her busted making trips from the moon to Leesburg. I am then informed that CAROL CONAWAY is owner of a perfume factory. She manufactures perfume imported from the Mars Orient and sells it in one ounce bottles. They always said that good things come in small packages. Hurrying on my way I am suddenly confronted by a huge building. I then notice a neon sign stating station WBUM. Stopping by, I am honored to hear the radio program of the time, starring NORMAN MUNSON and his Ting Tang Tung guitar show. As I leave the building, it abruptly dawns on me that I have completed the tour of the “Moon Colony” and now I can readily see why the earth chose to get rid of the class of “53”.

Ray Heiman Motto: Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. Colors: Silver and scarlet. Flower: Red Carnation. For the first time, the necessity of making enough money to finance another annual prom faced the class of “54”. And so the juniors rolled up their sleeves, pitched in, and started to work; and at the end of the year had made enough to make the prom something very special. Most of the money was the result not only of selling at the games, especially the sectional tourney, but also the Junior Class Play. Perhaps just as important as the fact that they were enlarging the class treasury was the fact that they had fun doing it.

I was off to see the world! From left to right, to up and down. I had no particular place in mind, Just wanted to get away, So, I boarded a train, and headed west, This very momentous day. I got off the train at a little town. Where the smell of the sage fills the air. Where every step kicks a cloud of dust; There’s an air of sleep everywhere. I stayed a while in this small western town, And found it too sleepy for me, I craved more excitement than this small town gave, And PARIS! was where it would be!! A few' days later, I was in Paris! Enjoying the night life and shows; A week of this, though, soon wore me out, And now it was QUIET I chose. I traveled all over, from here to there, From Paris, to Cairo, to Rome, My traveling just proved, (to ME, anywhere) I was simply longing for home.

Our Tiger staff began work on the most successful annual by launching a terrific advertising campaign. We sold a total of $1,800.00. The staff was then chosen, and the actual work began. The editors of the annual were Jo Ann Reed, Janet Olds, and Ruth Ann Hauth, and Pat Tyner was the assistant editor. The halls were illuminated by the flash of the bulbs as our photographers worked hard snapping pictures. The literary stair, typists and everyone concerned all co-operated in helping make our “Tiger Antics complete. Our sponsor, Mrs. Braddock, was always there to lend a helping hand.

Our pride and joy this year was our new Remington typewriter which we received soon after the beginning of the school year. This was the second year that a special paper has been published during National Education Week. It was an eight-page paper which contained articles especially written for that publication by members of the junior and senior classes, and the names and addresses of former graduates of W. H. S. who were at that time in service. Each of these graduates received this special edition. OUR BAND SENIOR HIGH SCHOOL BAND OFFICERS — 1952-1953 President .......................................

Pat Sumpter, Lolly Bumbaugh We were all very proud to be members of the Warsaw High School Band of 1953, and to render melodies under the capable direction of Bazil O’Reilley. The band has advanced a great deal since this staunch Irishman first stepped on the stage as our trainer. Some of the activities scheduled this year for the band were a penny supper, a fish fry, a bake sale, two concerts, and last but not least a tour. In the middle of April the band financed themselves on a tour of Kentucky and Tennessee, playing concerts and seeing the prominent sights. Perhaps you have attended one of Warsaw’s ball games or listened to our local radio station. If so, you are familiar with the snappy manner in which the stirring marches of Sousa and many other well-known composers are played by the band. We, that played our last notes with the band this year, feel that every one associated with this organization, whether member or friend, has gained a great deal, gained not only an increased knowledge of music but also an ability to cooperate and get along with others in preparing and giving a program for the betterment of all.

The choir again had their Tuesday evening sponsored radio programs over WUSW and during the months of February and March appeared in concerts in various churches throughout the community. The spring tour included several exchange concerts w'ith high school choirs. The department sjjonsored the Hall State Concert Choir in its first appearance in Warsaw and also traveled to Lafayette to hear Fred Waring and his Pennsylvanians. The trio and quartet sang for many clubs and school programs and of course our last big program was the annual spring festival.

Alan Morgan Jake: Jack Loser Mrs. Yoder: Beverly See State Trooper Brendel: Joe Haney Director: Mrs. Herbert Petrie “Papa Is All” is a story of a Pennsylvania Dutch mother, daughter, and son who rebel against a tyrannical father. Mama and Papa Aukamp are of the Mennonite religion; the son and daughter have not adopted it. They remain “worldly” until they feel the call to become “plain” or Mennonite. Papa takes advantage of the religion and takes away simple privileges such as a telephone and recreational rights for his children. Papa, whom the play centers about, is a burly man with a club foot. He is in his fifties, wears the Mennonite beard, with the upper lip smooth shaven; long black Mennonite coat, black trousers, broadbrimmed black hat. . For work about the farm he wears an ordinary hunting jacket. The seniors play climaxed the end of a very eventful senior year for the Class of 1953.

Pane Fifty-Seven -KVa Dramatic Clubs Thespians National Forensic League DRAMATIC CLUB The Dramatic Club continued to have a large memliership this year. The officers were Janet Olds, president; Kay McCoy, vice-president; Garnett Hyde, secretary; Russell Salisbury, treasurer, and Beverly See, program chairman. The biggest honor paid to the club came last sprinp when one of the members was chosen as a representative from Indiana to the National Speech Contest which was held in Boston. This was the first time that Warsaw Hiph School has been represented in a national event. The speech department is in its second year as a chapter of N.F.L. The Chapter consists of twenty members. This year the speech department has added three new radio proprams to the one they had formerly, Junior Town Hall. They are The Warsaw Hiph School Playhouse The Children’s Hour, and Music and Rhyme. The club has furnished much tine talent for community programs and activities. They also have entered many speech events this past year, such as Rotary and American l.epion oratorical contests, the N.F.L. district and state congresses, and the Purdue University Legislative Assembly. For the first time in the history of W. H. S. the State Speech Contest was held here in Warsaw. The club’s hard-working sponsor is Mrs. Herbert Petrie. How 1: Wenzlau, Higgens, Senour, Morgan.

ART CLUB During the year the club took several trips but the highlight of the year was a trip to Chicago where they went through the Art Institute and Carson Pirie Scott, the largest department store. The goal of the Art Club is to promote an interest of better art understanding among high school students. It is also a chance to receive training for a future in a commercial art vocation.

TRAFFIC COURT The traffic court, supported by the student council and the faculty, was established for the purpose of increasing safety around and about the school. The lieutenants, acting as officers, attempted to decrease the number of bicycle, pedestrian, and automobile misdemeanors. The system used was very similar to that of our law courts today. STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council, composed entirely of boys, adopted a new system of meeting this year. To avoid missing classes, the council voted to meet at 8:00 in the morning. The big issue of the year was the inauguration of the traffic court. Sabine Bartels attended a majority of the meetings to get an idea of our student government.

They were elected by the student Ixxly to form, develop, and direct the expression of school spirit during 1952-53. The faculty advisors were Miss Pfleiderer and Mrs. Weddle.

The traditional rival of the Bengals, Plymouth, was their first victim and after that the Sandersites were unbeatable. Winning the conference and being undefeated seems even more amazing since this was Coach Sanders’ first year. The amazement is lessened, however, when you know the caliber of the coaches and boys. One of the outstanding men was Sam Joyner who made All-Conference fullback, honorable mention All-State, and more yards than any other single member of the team. Thames Bowman was another player who sparked the team by his solid defense and pass catching ability. Jim West, Wayne Moss, Dick Katte, and “Doc” Ruth- erford were always there to make the tackle or open those holes. Some teams learned not even to try to run through center, off tackle or around end. Three juniors, Kent Adams, “Tub” Warner, and I irry Mulcahy, will he left to lead next year’s team on to victory. Mulcahy won a second team All-Conference post. J. Alan Morgan, Don Light, Ken Stone, and Glee Bratt were the fleet halfbacks turning in some very terrific work, while Max Stackhouse and Tom Joyner started half the games on defense. Thame Bowman and Jim West, All-Conference end and guard, were elected co-captains of the year by their teammates.

They again played Grace Seminary and won eight to six. Then the Tigers went to work on winning the conference. They won the next three games against Middlebury, New Haven, a conference team, and Culver Military Academy by the scores of twelve to six, ten to one, and eight to five, respectively. In the next game the Tiger team suffered their only loss of the season at the hands of Middlebury, three to seven. The Tigers defeated Bluffton three to zero Plymouth one to zero, Logansport six to four, and Decatur two to one. The Tigers were undefeated in conference play and won the conference title.

Track f MANAGER SHAFFER COACH OLDS Perhaps the 1952 Track season will remain the brightest for some time. Surely the Tigers were a powerful and well-balanced team, defeating such outstanding track teams as North Side of Fort Wayne, Elkhart, Goshen, Huntington, Marion and other outstanding schools. Warsaw remained an undefeated team until the Regional which turned out to be a duel with Roosevelt of Gary at North Side of Fort Wayne. Warsaw qualified seven men for the State Meet and saw their half-mile relay team lose a close race for first place. Actually both anchor men crossed the final together, but the judges gave Columbus the edge giving Warsaw second in a 1.31 race. Such outstanding men as Bell, Bowser, Johnston, Morgan. Horrick, Truex, Heaton, Taylor, paved the way for the Tigers, gathering their share of points, medals and trophies. The Tigers won the Class B division at Goshen relays and Kokomo relays. They also won the N.E. l.C. Conference meet as well as the sectional. Hard work and cooperation paid off to give the Tigers a track season that would lie the envy of any school.

In basketball, under the direction of Mr. Hoffer, 8 teams were formed. The team names, final standings and captains were as follows: Team— W.L. Captain Cutters .... 7 0 Joel Haney Lakers .... 6 1 Dennis Runyan Mosquitoes .... .... 4 3 Glen Martin Five Men .... 3 4 Jack Loser Rinky Dinks .... 3 4 Dick Hyde Cardinals .... 2 5 J. Alan Morgan Brewers .... 2 5 Wayne Moss Pistons .... 1 6 Russell Poor At the end of the regularly scheduled season all teams participated in a tournament. Joel Haney’s Cutters were the winners with J. Alan Morgan’s Cardinals as the runner-up. Dave Henderson led the league in scoring with 136 points in 10 games for an average of 13.6 per game. At the time of this publication Dick Hyde, Larry Wood ling, and Conrad Anderson were the finalists in the ping pong tournament. CROSS COUNTRY Warsaw’s Cross Country team did very well this year for being organized only-last year. Our first meet was at Wabash. We lost 38-22. Our second meet here on our own two-mile course moved a different story. The “harriers” beat Goshen 38-58 but lost again to Wabash 32-38. Our third meet was with the Plymouth Pilgrims. The Tigers beat them 23-32. Our next meet was here on our own course; it was the big N.E.I.C. meet. Warsaw won the Northeastern Conference Cross Country championship by defeating Decatur 21-35. Warsaw’s two-milers moved on to Goshen for a quadrangular meet. They were beaten by Fremont 23-32, but tied Howe Military 28-28 and l eat Goshen 25-31 in a cold, pouring rain. That finished the season except for the sectional and state meets. Warsaw’s Max Truex won the sectional with his own record breaking time of 10:25. He advanced to the state meet and placed fifth. Warsaw will lose four lettermen this year. They are Jim Heaton, Russell Poor, Dennis Runyan, and Glenn Martin. But lettermen Max Truex, Harold Baker, and Bill Wyman will be back next year.

THE BIRTH OF THE LEGION On February 15, 1919, three months after the Armistice, 20 officers of the A.E.F., each from a separate combat division or service unit of the A.E.F., met in Paris on orders to discuss methods of improving the morale of the army overseas while troops waited for ships to take them home to America. The war was over and there was nothing for two million soldiers to do but military routine. Morale was low; discipline was bad; absences without leave were numerous. The officers gathered in Paris were from the National Guard and reserve units. The regulars of the General Staff thought these volunteer soldiers would know more about the civilian soldiers they commanded than did the regulars. Officers and enlisted men met in Paris on March 15, 16 and 17, and out of this meeting the AMERICAN LEGION was born.

LONGFELLOW AUDITOR AND TAX ACCOUNTANT BOWSER BUILDING BOYER MANUFACTURING COMPANY WINONA FISHING TACKLE — METAL SPECIALTIES WINONA LAKE, INDIANA To the Senior Class of 1953: You are now at one of the many crossroads of life. There is now a theory that we are living in an age of ideas. Facts and machines are still important but what men believe is beginning to control our way of life. What some of them think threatens it. From graduation day through the rest of your life, you will be constantly bombarded with propaganda. Your ability to decide what is truth and what is propaganda will be a deciding factor in your success and well-being. To each and every member of this class, I wish a most bountiful life.
