I The Mixed Chorus, the largest singing group, contributed to many programs, took part in the spring concert and at the Spring Choral Festi¬ val at Greencastle. Too much credit cannot be given Mrs. Mar¬ shall Howenstein for her fine cooperation with all school programs as well as for the excel¬ lence of her direction. i iiy The familiar carols of Christmas sung through the halls and at the Yuletide con¬ vocation by the Girls ' Glee Club has be¬ come a tradition. Carefully coached by Mrs. Marshall Howenstein, the girls gave their best at every appearance. Especially effective were they in their maroon col¬ ored robes at the impressive Easter serv¬ ice. In white blouses and black skirts they pleased a large audience at their spring . concert. • Page 8.1

DOINGS OF THE DEVIL SEPTEMBER 11- Tonight I trudged up the hill to the Back-to-School Dance which the Girls ' Club sponsored. It was certainly nice to see all my friends again after vacation. 13—It seemed to me those fifteen minute periods were hours long. I think school is going to be fun this year now that I am a senior. 17--Washington of Indianapolis traveled all the way to West Side only to be beaten by the Devil by a score of 14-6. Pretty good for our first football game! It was too bad Bauman was injured but I hope he will soon be with us again. Hardin was also unable to play because he was stricken with polio. I hope it isn ' t too serious. After the game ihe Hi-Y sponsored a mixer in the cafeteria. It was very well attended by the Devils. 23— After school today I went to the organization meeting of the Senior Class in the cafeteria. The Juniors held their meeting in the library. 24— I drove all the way to Griffith and witnessed the Devil victory there by a score of 18 to 0. The Devil was well represented despite the distance. 29— After school I attended the Scarlet and Gray meet¬ ing at which time it was decided to publish the biggest and best annual ever. Tonight I attended the Hi-Y meeting. 30— This evening the Girls ' Club chili supper was served in the cafeteria. The freshman and sopho¬ more girls provided the entertainment for the rest of us. They show promising talent in acting and singing. OCTOBER 1—The Devil was host to Valparaiso tonight for an¬ other football encounter which came out victori¬ ous, 18 to 6. The annual crowning of Football Queen was held between games at which time Bonnie Burns was crowned queen by Mar y Ellen Binney, Girls ' Club President. Those girls in her court were Rae Asher, Barbara Gibbens, Barbara Bryan, Meredith Hunt, and Helen Lecklitner. Pages, who carried the crown and gifts, were Anne Moore and Shirley Felknor. I think Ted LaBree made a very charming escort. Everyone was congratulating the queen at the mixer spon¬ sored by the T.E.C. crew after the game. 4- Head for the Press Room. All of us seniors sure were dolled up today to get our pictures taken. 5- We seniors had a meeting this afternoon and elected our officers. I think Bill Bauman will make a very efficient President, don ' t you? 8—Crawfordsville welcomed West Side tonight to play football, and of course the Devil won by a large margin, 19 to 0, I believe. 15—The first defeat for the Devil came tonight when the Hoopeston boys beat us 14 to 12. I guess we can ' t be the win ners every game. 19—After school today the Hi-Y had a meeting with their new members. How do you like initiation boys? Pa%e £5
