Hours of writing, re-writing, reading, re-reading, correcting, picture taking and re-taking--all are found herein. As someone has said, New ground always plows hardest the first tixne. Your present staff could say much about getting an early start with picture taking to avoid' the last minute rush as well as epidemics of illnesses that make class pictures incomplete. A few days delay with assignments has made for nerve-wracking tension among the staff and typists. Beating the deadline is more trying than most outsiders can believe. It is much hoped that no ill feelings will be harbored if the editor-in-chief or sponsor haveiseemed to be a little short with their answers as the press tinie neared. One little excuse for not having copy in would not have been disturbing nor would have one overlooked error, but repeated postponements of completed work at times beca.me unsurmountable obstacles that had to be overcome through long hours on the part of a few folks. To be sure, that is evidence of the need for more adequate planning and an earlier start. But, the tedious hours of work will become forgotten ones if you find within these covers some minutes of joy. It seems only proper to give credit where credit is due. Here are thanks for all those who have contributed of time and effort willingly. Besides the advanced typing class and other staff members on whose shoulders most of this work has fallen, mention should be given to all the Seniors who contributed to their Senior items, to Merrill Frick, jim Fulford, and Dave Yoder for the sports reviews, to Mrs. Shumaker for helping read copy, to Olie for helping Mr. Hoover take pictures, to Mrs. Castetter for contributing the North Elkhart pictures and items, to those who sold advertising and got subscriptions and to any others who have helped. Arthur Smith, of Ligonier, was grand to do the last minute developing and enlarging so promptly. His advice also helped irnmeasurably. The efforts of this year shall not have been in vain, if next year others will profit from out experience and give to Wawaka another Annual. It is hoped this one will be a challenge to them.

Tierney who has headed the Wawaka Schools since the fall of 1921. His efforts and faithfulness have been persistent and untiring. During this period he has taught a heavy schedule of classes, acted as basketball coach for many years and led many teams to victory, and besides, has ably borne the griefs and responsibilities that must naturally come to one in his position. His leadership has made Wawaka School an institution of which we are all proud. UQ l if in-1 ' ' 'ht- ..', ,, A FEW REFLECTIONS 19-4-8! Wawaka School has entered into the second half of its first hundred years of existence. It offers its First Annual this year. It might be interesting to try to imagine what the first annual and succeeding ones would have been like, had they been issued from the V beginning. Memory, inigaination, a few old photographs, conversation and research reading may reveal some meagre details. It seems doubtful that you would desire to follow all the details in exact chronological sequence. This discourse rather proposes to review just a few of the highlights. From its humble beginning over fity years ago with only one high school teacher and four grade teachers, to now, Wawaka School has been growing up while America has been grow ing up. The life blood of each has been the life blood of the other. Through depression, panic and wars--three of them to be exact--it has carried on. Men and women, former students of Wawaka School have given much during these years. Some have given even their very lives that Wawaka School and America might still have much left to offer. Wouldn't it seem funny, if today, the schoolhouse sat at the edge of a great sawdust pile as it .did previous to 1911 when activities were transferred to the present building? fThe accomplishrnents of the school i.n those days were remarkable, Sawdustcould always be re- moved from shoes and ears without proving fatal.j During the first years in the present building basketball players sometirnes showed a tendency to get somewhat dirty, This was during the years when the old gyin still had a dirt floor. Unless it was kept well sprinkled it was sometimes hard to see the players for dust. But this was changed after a few years when a new hardwood floor was laid., At this tinie electric lights and a water system were installed. Imagine, if you will, a school building now without electricity, modern plumbing, and hand-washing facilities. To go backwards would mean giving up much, wouldn't it? Much given to Wawaka School by a progressing world has helped Wawaka School give much to that progressing world. Names and ideals associated with Wawaka School have be- come traditions that will last forever. Everyone looks toward Wawaka School with hopeful expectations. Wawaka School looks to the future with confidence. --Keith F. Krippner l onlne., i R Q L l i I 5 i I ?

SCHOOL MARMS AND MASTERS Mr. J. L. Tierney has been the efficient principal of Wawaka High School for the past 2.7 years. Currently, besides his principalship dutues, he is teaching three math classes and serving as school treasurer. For several years he was Wawaka's coach. He has taught a wide variety of classes. He graduated from Indiana State Teachers' College in 1916 and earned a M. A. in 1926 after having received anA. B. in 1921. He served Uncle Sam in World War I. Teacher, minister, insurance, and family man. That's Mr. Buryl E. Hoover, who has taught at Wawaka for the past 22. years. His many different roles have kept hirn a very busy man. Perhaps all this has taught him to concentrate regardless of that which is roundabout. He earned his A. B. at Manchester College and his M. A. at the University of Michigan in speech and linguistics. Like Mr. Tierney, he, too, was in World War I. Although Mr. Hoover has taught history, Bible, English, and Latin, he at present has classes in the latter two only. He takes his turn in the weekly chapel services and in a few minutes delivers a most worthwhile sermonette. For both Whoop and Annual, he is co- advisor. Each year he ha coached at least two plays and he also has the title of junior sponsor. When you see someone coming toward you with a look' on her face that means work, it's just Mrs. Vadas L. Golden. Manchester College graduated her with a Bachelor of Science in Music Education degree. She has done some graduate work at Ball State. Along with teaching music and commercial subjects, she is frequently seen selling tickets at the local ball games. For several years she was also school treasurer. In herfpirftirne she works at home, along withdirecting a church choir. You may think the word work is used quite often, but that's what is meant. lf not seen at plays, it's because she is prompting backstage. The Whoop and Annual staffs find her a great help as one of their advisors. Down in the basement is found Mr. Douglas LeMaster teaching agriculture and shop. You don't see him often, for he teaches here only in the afternoons, he's at Wolf Lake in the mornings. He graduated from Purdue University with a Bachelor of Science in Agriculture and Science degree. He served in the Army for five years. He has been on the W. H. S. faculty for three years. Wawaka is especially grateful that he led the Warriors to victory on February 10 against Ligonier when Mr. Hostetler was ill. SCHOOL MARMSAND' MASTERS-C ontinued Mrs. Irma Shurnaker is teaching at Wawaka after an absence of 12 years. She had taught here from 1928 to 1936. Home economics, biology, physical education, and commercial geography are the classes she is teaching. Have you noticed how nice the basketball suits look at the games? It's thanks to Mrs. Shurnaker for seeing they are laundered. She attended Tri-State and Manchester Colleges. She has taught school for 27 years. Back of that smile from ear to ear when Wawaka wins a ball game is Coach Lloyd N. Hostetler. Besides being the coach, he teaches physical education, history, and social studies. This is his first year at W. H. S. but his eleventh year of teaching. He has attended Goshen and Ball State Colleges, he received his B. S. degree in 1935. I-Ie's a right lively person even though his quiet voice and manner would sometirnes give you the opposite impression. He's an ardent newspaper fan--keeps up with the current events that way. The artistic person seen around Wawaka each Wednesday is known to all as Mrs. Elizabeth Bangs. It is amazing the art work her students produce. How much this work adorns the various classrooms. It was so much missed last year, too. She has taught both art and music for several years. She played the piano for the recording used for the Senior Play last fall. She is a graduate of Miami University. Later she found her way to Ligonier where she and her husband, the former Ligonier School Superintendent, are currently making their home. Mr. Schuyler Pletcher teaches grades 7 and 8 and the senior health and safety. He received his B. A. at Goshen College and has extension credits from several places. He supervises the sales of school supplies and candy for his grades. He is also a family man, carpenter, and salesman. That should be enough to keep anyone busy. He has taught school 23 years, Z have been at Wawaka. Oh, yes, he's known for his propensity for story telling. Teacher, painter, paper hanger, ticket taker--those are the roles performed ably by Mr. Keith F. Krippner. He has taught at Wawaka for 33 years. He is currently teaching Grades 5 and 6. 3 Before Christrnas he is rushed handling the business end of the card sales his pupils sponsor. Mr. Krippner has a subtle sense of humor and is clever with the pen when writing news items. He. attended Tri-State and Valparaiso. On the first floor, and to your left as you come up the front stairs, you will find Grades 3 and 4 under the supervision of Miss Evangeline Franks. This is her third year at Wawaka. She received her advanced education at Goshen College and Indiana Extension at Winona Lake, SCHOOL MARMS AND MASTERS-Continued She occasionally helps take tickets at ball games. In her spare time she raises chickens and does other home chores. In all, she has taught Z3 years. Ready and always willing to help, that's Mrs. Thelma Frick. She takes care of the little tots in the first and second grades. At some of the noon folk game periods, she has been seen on the gym floor, leading her little folks right along with the older ones. Manchester and Ball State Colleges were her studying points. She has taught school for 9 years. She often assists at ball games with the ticket selling or taking. Her other chores are keeping house and helping her husband on the farm. Currently, she has a horror of icy roads and ditches. BUS DRIVERS For the past 13 years, Lyman J. Piggott, who is far better known as Pete, has been a Wawaka School bus driver. He has lived in Elkhart Township for nearly 54 years and at present lives off Road 6 just west of Wawaka. In all his bus driving, his severest thrill came when his bus slid down Diamond Lake Hill on the ice and there were three children in the bus. His pet peeve is back seat driving. Besides driving a school bus, he farms and shares management of the Houston-Piggott Store. He is the father of two children, both have grad- uated from Wawaka High School. He has two grandchildren. Robert ggi, who is a native of Elkhart Township, has driven a school bus for 9 years. He gets quite amused when he hears, I hope we can't get to school tomorrow, I have a test. lt's disgusting to have children throw paper and the remainder of their lunches on the floor, he says. Being stuck in the mud with his bus from 7:45 a. m. to 2:30 p. m. and having nearly all the Noble County Highway Equipment to get hirn out has been his most thrilling experience. Hunting and fishing fill Bob's leisure hours. He. has often driven the players' bus to ball games. His two girls are in school, but his son is yet at home. A For thirty-one years Kenneth galil- has lived in Elkhart Township. This is his fifth year of hauling students to North Elkhart and Wawaka Schools. Sliding on the ice have provided him with most of his bus driving thrills during that time. He thinks eating and sleeping are NS P01 PCCVCS- For sports he prefers fishing. Have you caught any big ones lately, Kenny? He is a farmer by trade, The Boyd's have four boys. Another school bus driver from North Elkhart is kg-gag: Ramsby. He, too, has lived iw me 5? 2 1 ii Ii 1, X BUS DR IV ERS -Continued around here nearly all of his life. For the past five years he's been hauling kids. Last year he faithfully drove the fan bus for ball games. Bucking snow banks has been his most thrilling experience in his bus. He says his favorite car is a Chevy. Something's fishy, his bus is a Ford! Maybe he couldn't get what he wanted! When he's not driving the bus, he is hard at work on the farm. Arthur Ernmert, a resident of Elkhart Township for twenty-nine years, has been driving a school bus for three years. He drives one of the three buses from North Elkhart School to Wawaka. His most thrilling experience while driving was taking a load of young people to Indianapolis to the Youth for Christ Rally. He was amused when one of his riders said he liked to smell gas and gasoline, too. Take notice Wawaka kids: His pet peeve is kids getting into the bus through the back door! He delights in teasing Mary jane Eberly and Homer Lindsey. Art also does trucking and farming, he especially enjoys crying sales. The Emmert's have five children, only three are yet in school. Another bus driver, Frederick Burket, is also in his third year of driving. He also is a native of Elkhart Township. His most thrilling experience as a bus driver was when joan Yoder tried to run over his bus with her brother's motor scooter. His pet peeve is getting up to early to drive the bus. His favorite sport is basketball. The school basketball fans will remember Fred for taking them to many of the games away from home this year. The Burket's have one son. THE JANIT OR MAN Olin Lower, our efficient and accommodating janitor, is a graduate of Wawaka High School with the class of 1932. Besides keeping our working quarters clean and comfortable, he is very helpful in unnumbered other ways. He is our picture projector operator, general repair man, and ,willing helper in many capacities. The chair shown with hind on another page is a Christmas gift from students and teachers in appreciation of the extras he does. :eoeukmk Mrs. Shurnaker, who teaches biology, asked Bud Hjelm to report to the class what he had found out about the salivary glands. Bud replied, I couldn't find a thing, Mrs. Shumaker. They're to pesky secretive. If you get zero on your exam, don't let it bother you. It means absolutely nothing!

And now they seem to slip so fast-- Soon high school days will be in the past. When you look back over the years with us, Initiation plans were quite a fuss. You know why--so do we-- Our initiation was given free. The Sophomore year sure was swell With the old gold sweaters that once fit well. Life for us was loaded with fun, We didn't realizenit had just begun. junior sales sure were keen When fans ate hot dogs and ice cream. The County Tournament was held here, Wawaka came through with many a cheer. Senior year was full of events, Pictures arrived and the fun comrnencedg Along cazne our play, Everything Happens to Us, Painting and buckets, what a cluttered up fuss! As for our teachers, we'd like to say, You've been appreciated in many a way. To all our schoolmates, we say adieug We wish the best of school days to you. Step by step is the motto we boast This is the one we believe in the most. fb-gf Thirteen in our class-- 'Unlucky, you say? 1 No worries yet--we're on our way. K 13 --D. Donley, A. johnson It , JN SENIOR BIOGRAPI-IIES LOIS DAMON--This blue-eyed, blond-haired miss took her first breath of fresh air in the liendallville Hospital, August 7, 1930. It must have taken some thought, for the name given to her was Freda Lois Marie Damon. She has spent eleven years at Wawakag her eight grade was spent in New York. What a phobia she has for math! She was elected one of the yell team this year and has made a good one. She must enjoy milking the bossy at home because milk is her favorite food. She, like everyone, has other favorites. Some are: typing and health classes, collecting pictures, softball and ice-skating, Frimls' Indian Love Call, and many others. She aspires to make her fiance an excellent wife beginning this coming August. DORIS DONLEY--Ye Annual editor was born in Lowell, Michigan, to Mr. and Mrs. Ernest Donley on july 29, 1930. She was their first child and was named Doris Lucille. It was not until her sixth grade that she came to Wawaka to live. Very noticeable has been her personal neatness, always neat note-books and penmanship, and subtle hurnor. All the better is that since she aspires to be a good medical secretary after taking some college training. Her pet peeve is to have someone telling jokes when she is trying to study. Pamphlet col- lecting is her hobby. Her favorite active sport is watching basketball games. Stardust and Civilization are choice tunes for Doris. If you ever have a meal that includes potato salad and hot rolls, why not invite Doris overg she likes them, too. Currently, she is editor of the The Whoop and in that role has been struggling to think up new items of interest. MARION FRANKS--Marion jones Franks opened his big blue eyes in the liendallville Hospital, May 27, 1930. His schooling started in the fall of 1936 and ended twelve years later in the same school at Wawaka. Except for a few serious moments he is glibly talkative. His is a slow moving, turtle-like walk. His hobby is tinkering with radios and gasoline motors, either fix or finish! His ambition in life is to work on the railroad and never be broke. If you are missing a cherry pie that has been set out to cool, Marion might be the guilty one-- he loves 'em. His favorite pastime is going to Albion for some known reason. There must be a girl around there, no? 'Twixt visits he has this year been student manager. MERRILL FRICK --Back on August 10, 1930, in the Kenrlallville Hospital, Ward 4, Bed 8, Mr. and Mrs. Harry D, Frick became the parents of another black haired boy whom they named Merrill Blosser. He is one of the Seniors with Wawaka schooling exclusively, To his credit SENIOR BIOGRAP HIES -C ontinued are four years of high school basketball, including play in as many sectional tournaments. Nice, juicy steaks no doubt give him extra energy. His ambition is to get into the same business as his father--feed and coal--, but he hopes also to own a string of feed mills. First he expects to attend college for a year or two learning some more business angles. His hobbies, which can be easily understood, are hauling coal, feed, and fertilizer. His favorite classes include economics, algebra, and bookkeeping. He claims the latter as a favorite even though he suggests his bookkeeping teacher as his pet peeve. Louise in song or person is music to his ears. Keeping Merrill busy is the best way to keep him out of mischief, for he finds it hard to be idle. JAMES FULFORD--If in the future you ever hear the nalne of a Mr. Fulford as foreman of Industrial Engineering and Manufacturing Company, that will be our jim. james Soloman Fulford was born on April 8, 1930, in the big city of Wawaka. He has both started and finished his education at Wawaka. And now, his goal is an advanced position with the company just east of here, on Road 6. Proud is Wawaka that jim won the good sportsmanship award at the 4-Team Invitational Tourney at Ligonier this january. He has been one of the outstanding basketball players this year and last, in the county. His six foot three inches and broad shoulders give him an outstanding athletic prowess that he handles adeptly. Parking out on the ice with a fish pole and water-soaked bait provides jirn with more thrills. Disgusting it is for someone to say, How is every little thing? Small wonder then that he chooses to hear Too Fat Polka. Oh, yes, jim has been an able president of the Senior class this year, too. ' DONALD GANGWER--Another twelve yearer at Wawaka School is Donald Gangwer. This baby of the family was born May Zl, 1930, onthe shores of Diamond Lake. This summer he hopes to work at the Mogul Rubber Corp., Goshen, and then turn to farming. His favorite hobbies are reading Western tales and fishing. Anyone would like fishing if they lived as close to a lake as he does. If Bob Hope and Judy Conova are playing at the Local you will probably see him there. Don gives others real competition i.n the lively games of ping pong around school. ' SENIOR BIOGRAPHIES -C ontinued JOSEPHINE GApp1NGER-:.l Never a hair out of p1ace it seems. That's the way Josephine Louise Gappinger appears to her fellow classmates. Jody, who is perhaps the peppiest of Senior girl quintet, doesn't agree with that idea, but others probably look at her more than she does herself. Her present home was her birth site on March 26, 1930. How- ever, she attended Elkhart schools for her first seven years of schooling. After graduating she hopes to beginnurses' training and then be a good nurse. Hope she doesn't tell her patients that they're going to die, for Jody is usually out with what she thinks. Baked potatoes and baked beans would make a warm spot inJody's heart for you if you'd just serve them to her. Civilization, Robert Mitchum, and Greer Garson are her favorites in the entertaimnent world. Choice car? ..... They all seem to drive Fords ! ROBERT HANEY--On a cold Decernber 18, 1928, the stork landed at the Haney family, two miles north of Wolf Lake. Robert spent his first two years of school at Wolf Lake, then four years at Merriam, and finally ended up at Wawaka for the last six years. He likes to collect stamps, go fishing, and see Roy Rogers and Judy Canova on the screen. His pet peeve is getting up in the morning. fTry getting up in the afternoon, Bobl! His ambition is to be a mechanic, probably for the practical purpose of keeping his Model A running. He and Donald Gangwer are a challenge to each other in the ping pong room. ARLENE JOHNSON--Beulah Arlene Johnson, Red to all that know her, came into this world just in time to go to bed. The blessed event took place April 10, 1930, at 10:30 p. m. She started to school at North Elkhart with Mrs. Audrey Stauff as her first teacher. After 6 years there she came to Wawaka for the last six. Others telling their troubles annoys her, so, i.f you have any, tell them to someone else. Not too often does Arlene display the much talked of red-headed ternperment. She enjoys seeing basketball gamesjskating, collecting pictures of movie stars, bookkeeping class, and sending for articles. Her favorite song is I Wonder. After graduation she expects to work and then go to college. Her arnbition is to make good as a medical secretary. EDWARD MAWHORTER--About 4 a. m., March 22, 1930, a little blue-eyed boy made his appearance in Elkhart Township. He was given the name of Edward Evans Mawhorter, but all his classmates call him Ed or Eddie. He, too, has had all twelve years of schooling at Wawaka. He likes to divide his time among working math problems, driving a car, and playing basketball. If you have Ed to dinner sometirne feed him yellow wax beans, they're his favorite. After graduation he expects to farm and continue schooling. His pet peeve is SENIOR BIOGRAPHIESlC'ontinued bubble gum, so kiddies, keep that gum under cover when Ed is around. Athletically, Edward has been active in basketball when his feet would permit. Lots of practice has he had doing farm chores and general farming. Holsteins are his choice of milk cows. WAYNE MOORE--On February 2, 1930, Fredrick Wayne Moore was born near Albion. School found him at Albion for a half year, then York Center for seven and one-half years, back to Albion for three years, and then to Wawaka his senior year where he made the grand total of thirteen for the Senior class. His goal is to be a man of money so that he may live comfortably with fewer financial worries. His favorite class is mathematics and hobby is reading. Old cars are his pet peeve. Must be he knows from experience with his ru.nabout. Steaks cause his gustatory glands to work industriously. Want -'em ra.re or well done, Wayne? He likes to see Gary Cooper and joan Crawford act in movies. RALPH TROYER--Ralph Eugene Troyer was born on Decernber 28, 1929, near Ship- shewana. He went to Ligonier in his first two years of high school and has sinre been here. His wit and humor at times are a challenge to his classmates who are less humorous-minded. Euring play practices he was always thinking up a variety of activities for behind the scenes. He may not look it, but he's one of the most peppy Seniors. joking aside, he longs to learn flying some of these days. Meanwhile he expects to take a trip and then either continue to farm or go on to school. His pet peeve is stuckup persons. Two of his favorites are lots of ha.mburgers and reading Lil' Abner. Collecting money seems to be his. choice of hobbies imagine he's the kind that lures out those unusual coins. 'I-Ie's found a place on the varsity basketball squad the past two years. . DORIS WYSONG--South Bend is the city where Doris Wysong was born on May 14, 1930. Although born at South Bend, she started to school at Wawaka and it's the only school she has attended. Mrs. Ruth Schwab johnson started her on the road to learning. Her ambition is to work at the Wirk'Garment Company and make a success of her art work there. Some of her favorites are: food, chicken--she didn't say whether she liked it with the feathers or friedg sports, roller and ice-skatingg songs, Holy City and Peg of My Heart g Car, Chevrolet. Don't accuse Doris of things for which she isn't to blame, because that's her pet peeve. Drawing and collecting snapshots head her hobbies. She's a good soprano, too.

Signed: Class of 194-8 CLASS OF 1948 LATER ON As we gaze into our crystal ball we see the future-naturally. First we see 'Lois Marie Damon, who incidently has changed her name to Weaver, hustling about their home in Wawaka taking care of all the little Weavers. She was always determined to be a good housewife and she seems to be doing a good job of it. As this picture fades out we see that of Beulah Arlene johnson and QE Lucille Donley take shape. They are busy in the office of the newly built Municipal Hospital in Wawaka. The doctors seem to be well pleased with their medical' secretaries. Next we see Marionlcinei Franks busy supervising traffic in the Wawaka freight yards. He is now married and has three children. He is enjoying his job because the freight yards are so large and it gives him an air of supremacy. We now seem to see four feed mills, one each in Kendallville, Brimfield, Wawaka, and Ligonier. The sign on each one says Merrill Blosser Frick and Sons. He evidently has a thriving business by the looks of his properties. He and his wife are living in Wawaka where the main office is. Now we see someone who is just a trifle bit too large for our crystal ball to manage. Oh yes, ifsgzis Solomon Fulford who is now head foreman at Industrial Engineering and Manufacturing Company at Brirnfield. On the sideline he and his wife are raising chickens and pickles. His children don't seem to like to pick pickles-Wonder why? Our crystal ball now produces a picture of Donaldggimgvfr who has recently purchased a 120-acre farm on the out- skirts of Goshen. He got his wife from the office of the Mogul Rubber Co. where he was recently employed. They have no children as yet. Once again we get a vision of the Wawaka Municipal Hospital where we find Josephine Louise Gappinger, who has been promoted to head., N x nurse. She has not yet spoken the marriage vows. Pops, what's this? It looks like grease- spots on our crystal ball. Oh, yes, it's Robertgydgi-Q2 who is head grease monkey at the Wawaka Garage. He is seriously thinking of buying out the garage. He has his eye on one of the medical secretaries at the hospital. Keep Looking, Bob! Our next vision is not so clear because it takes us so far, far away. We find Fredrick Wayne Moore running a very fine CLASS OF' 1948 LATER ON-Continued looking restaurant on Michigan Avenue, Chicago, Illinois. His wife is head cook and his children are waiters and waitresses. We now see -D-cg Eilene Wysong as head of the art department at Wirk's Garment Factory in Ligonier. Her husband is one of the foremen. Her twin daughters are now in the second grade in Ligonier. It is rather hard to'get this next scene as it is wh Eugene Troyer and his youngest son coming in for a landing at his airport. Now that he has stopped we find that he seems to have a very pleasant occupation. His air- port is in connection with a gas station along Road 6 near Wawaka. Our last vision is that of a farm just across the road from Troyer's Airport where we find Edward Evans Mawhorter doing his spring plowing. His wife and son are out at the barn milking the Holsteins. The crystal ball is not to be held responsible for any change in the above predictions., CLASS HISTORY Only seven of the thirteen Seniors started at Wawaka School under the guidance of Mrs. Ruth Schwab johnson. They were: Merrill Frick, Donald Gangwer, Edward Mawhorter, Marion Franks, james Fulford, Doris Wysong, Lois Damon. Lois later spent one year in New York but decided she liked Wawaka best. Others beginning in 1936 were: Ruth Dunlap, Jeanette Hale, Betty Fulk, Norma Smith, Thomas Magers, Donald Meroney, jack Smith, Gwan Kimrnel, and Richard Pusti. In the second grade jim Gleason and Donald Meroney left the class in order to help enlarge some other schools. When school opened the following fall we had another loss, jack Smith had moved to Wolf Lake. The fourth grade found the class minus one more member, Richard Pusti. Lyle Klemn joined us in the fifth grade. Max Musselman was temporarily with the class. Robert Haney, who got his start at Wolf Lake with Blanche Erdly as his teacher then went to Merriam, some way wound up at Wawaka for six and one-half years. Then in the sixth grade Lyle Klemn and Jeanette Hale left. As the year went by, jack Wallace came and Doris Donley added defense to the feminine side of the class. 1 Then came the junior High years with the North Elkhart gang raising the seventh grade crew to 19. North Elkhart School graduates were: Dean Wysong, Arlene johnson, Norma Day, and Sally Donat. Dean Wysong, Ruth Dunlap, Dean Kline, and Sally Donat left J 4 if A il 3 5 -1 1 1 1 Q Y ,S 2, fl ,ie 3 A 'Q Some schools have colors old CLASS HIST ORY-C0n'Cin11ed during the eighth grade year, but Josephine Gappinger's coming from Elkhart helped to offset that loss. The thinning-out process soon reduced the class. Norma Day moved near Columbia City when a freshie. jack Wallace and Gwan Kimmel were lured to Ligonier the same year. Ellen Church and Barbara Gaunt were only with the class a short time. Old gold sweaters were chosen by the 16 Sophomores. All the gang stayed for the whole year. junior life spelled downfall for the school life of three of the class. Marriage claimed Betty Fulknand Norma Smith. Tom Magers joined the factory workers. Twelve Seniors were soonjoined by a thirteenth one this fall. Wayne Moore transferred from York Township. And, so we've trailed the class of 1948 from way back in 1936. If there have been omissions, it has been quite unintentional. The history from here on, is up to the Class of 1948 as they go STEP BY STEP. CLASS OF 1948 Colors: BLUE AND GRAY Motto: STEP BY STEP Flower: AMERICAN BEAUTY ROSE GINGER ITEMS And some have colors boldg But I have a hunch That the best in the bunch, Is the one that is purple and gold, Freshman: Mom, can I go out tonight, please? Sophomore: I'm going out tonight, Mom, junior: Goodby, Mom. Senior: I'll bring the milk in with me. At a very exciting ball game the people were so people in back asked if they wouldn't sit down in front. Lower replied. We don't bend that way. Mr. Tierney fFinishing a long algebra problemlz Gloria Oesch: All that work for nothing. Though high school days Have their delights, They can't compare With high school nights.

E. S. the principal is Mrs. Helen Castetter. This is her second year there. She teaches the grades 4-5-6, along with sharing the duties of selling candy and school supplies. Mrs. Cotner also helps. Manchester found Mrs. Castetter delving in books to merit a two-year diploma. In all, she has taught for 9 years. Her home is in Cosperville. The other one of the teacher team at N. E. S. is Mrs. Thora Cotner. She helps with the many tasks to be done in the little school. This is her tenth year of teaching, but only her first at North Elkhart. She teaches the grades l-2-3. In her spare time she tends to the work to be done at home on the farm. THE HANDY MAN Congenial Ralph Gallup is more than a routine janitor at North Elkhart. He has fol- lowed in the footsteps of his father, Irey, who was once janitor of the same school. Ralph has always lived in this community. He apparently loves children and shows it by doing many kind things for them.

After 32 minutes of very exciting and fast play, the Warriors found themselves on the short end of a 40-38 score. Fulford started the season off with a bang by garnering honors for the evening with 19 points. Topeka was next to meet the Warriors. There was a hectic battle before the visitors lost their scalp to the tune of 45-39. Frick and Fulford led Wawaka with 19 and 18 points, respectively. In the same week, at Ligonier, Wawaka put on a fine exhibition to beat the Red Raiders, 46-35. Wawaka traveled to Rome City and stopped the unbeaten Romans with a jolt, 41-27. Fulk snagged several long shots against Cronwell and thereby helped defeat the Spartans, 46-25 Wawaka played host to a big LaGrange team on November 21. The lead changed hands frequently, but the local quintet ca.me out on top, 52-46. Fulford had a great night by scorch- ing the nets with 30 points. At Brighton, the Warriors whipped the Wildcats 52-26. Every- one had the range. On December 5, Wawaka' went to Wolf Lake for a seeming football game. There was a total of 62 fouls called in the fracas. Wawaka lost 4 men via the personal route, but managed to win 50 - 39. In the County Tournament, Wawaka was glad to have another crack at Albion. It was an exciting game and although the lead see-sawed back and forth, Wawaka was on the wrong end when the gun went off. Albion won, 39-38. Again the Spartans bowed to Wawaka after challenging the locals for the first half and then losing ground the second half. Wawaka's victory was 46-31. In a similar manner, the Topeka Bears fell before the Warriors at Honeyville, 47-33. Frick cashed in 22 points. Wawaka's third defeat of the season was by no one but the Albion Trojans. They' must be a jinx! Wawaka led at the half, but slowed up in the last quarter while Albion speeded on to a 4-7-40 win. Ligonier played host to the Big-4 tourney and also walked off with top honors. Wawaka drew and defeated Cromwell in the first game, 45-28. Ligonier defeated Wolf Lake to get to the Finals. Ligonier was hotter than Wawaka and played a good brand of ball to defeat the Warriors, 37-34. Wawaka was not without a trophy, for jirn Fulford carried home the K .1 ' ,A by ' if ' T, , of WA L S W O R T H Ltthognp l I-:und by WALIIOITII llD'l'I'Illl! u...,.u.... nn... u. 1. A. THE NET SEASON AT A GLANCE-Continued sportsmanship award presented by the Ligonier Rotary Club. Wolf Lake gave the Warriors a scare in the last part of their game. Fortunately, the Warriors did recover and eked out a 41-36 win in the last few minutes. The Warriors gained another scalp by defeating a red hot Avilla five, 45-39. Frick and Fulford combined forces for 37 points, getting 19 and 18, respectively. Before a packed house the Warriors came to the top and defeated the Ligonier Red Raiders, 43-39. It was a hard fought game even though Wawaka made the first bucket and was in the lead for the entire 32 minutes. Have a hunch Coach Hostetler was pulling for the Warriors and Assistant LeMaster even though the former was confined to his home. The same week the locals trampled Millersburg, 71-32. Everyone found the range though Frick and Fulford led. There's one game left as this item is rushed to the press. It's on the local hardwood with the Rome City Romans. And then, the Sectional tourney!

The team took special pride in letting the wind out of over-inflated opponents. Its biggest deflating job was when they severely trounced the famous Ft. Wayne Turners-- a feat that created no small sensation, for the Turners had a reputation reaching clear back to Germany. fLook up: Turnverien Societyl. The boys had a total of five suits. Substitutions were rarely madeg many games ended withwy four players. Out of Z6 games, they won 25. Truly, here is one of the traditions of W. H. S.
