For the first time in over a decade, Whiting High School this year organ- ized a Bowling Club. With the help of two sponsors, a group of boys not out for major sports organized under the direction of Bruce Russell as president and Bob Pulliam as secretary, the originators of the idea. After first experimenting with practice games, the averages of individual members were used as the basis of choosing teams. The new club filled a definite need in the extra-curricular activities of Whiting High.

Soon after the bump and bruise season was over Coach Peter Kovachic found the hardwood bu biting his boys as they celebrated the opening of our new Memorial Gymnasium with a 60-38 slashin of crosstown rival, Clark. Keeping pace, the Green and White skipped down to Fowler to snatch a 52-50 win in the la: few seconds. The Oilers suddenly hit a cold night and found themselves in the middle of the milky way ; Thornton Fractional’s Meteors flew by with a 40-33 upset. Hammond Tech’s Tigers furnished the team with a nice kill as the Oil City Five feasted c 53 points to their 48. The Blue Devils of Frocbel fell before the oil train as the home team won another close or 35-32. j Next on the throbbing pipe line was Gary Horace Mann. The Horsemen couldn’t keep i and were drowned out in a 54-46 win, the Oilers’ third straight in conference play. Whiting’s first holiday tournament proved a big success as they captured the trophy. L( Birkett’s Tech Tigers met the Oilers again and for the second time the green and white emerged top, this time 54-43. East Chicago provided the next opposition with their Rough Riders, but tl Kovachic men came through 53-42. In the finals, Whiting met for the second time this year t! Clark Pioneers, who were outfought and defeated finally 43-41. i Resuming the regular season Whiting was immediately set back by Hammond High, 52-5 This afterwards proved the turning point of the season as only .471 ball was played from this point ( Page Fll tj CONDES DRIVE-IN 1440 Indianapolis Blvd. CHUCK’S SUPER SERVICE 1420-40 Calumet Avenue The green and white hit the victory trail once more and chalked up their ninth victory eleven starts by downing Griffith, 54-48. I olleston set the Oilers back with the low game of the season as they came through, -27. I'he Oilers set back Dee Kohlmier’s Michigan City Red Devils, 55-46 to bring the iison record thus far 10-3. The hardwood cagers then found out you can’t beat ’em all the time as Clark finally t their stride to win, 50-46, for their first in three starts against Whiting thus far. To make up for the Clark loss, the Oilers rampaged against the Valpo Vikings, 63-48 r a big upset and set their conference mark at 4-3. Mishawaka dealt another loss out of the deck by downing the home team, 65-53, ter our enjoyable bus ride on the way down there. In the next game, the green and white came through with a victory over rival East licago Roosevelt, 53-42. Gary Edison proved the next attraction as the green rolled on to their second •aight win, 66-58. The worst defeat of the season and many a year came at the hands of a boy whom e class of 1952 will remember for years as he scored 36 of the 81 points that Lew allace’s Hornets amassed as they submerged Whiting, 81-44. The boy was Joe Capua. East Chicago Washington then also played cat and mouse with the Oilers for three- arters before pouring it on, 62-47. Luck was also void in the Sectionals as Whiting’s bitter, cross-town rivals beat them, -51 in the last five seconds of play. In all respect, it must be admitted that W.H.S. lyed good ball against Clark this year.

Corliss is in the bad graces of the family but finally is sent to the hospital for an appendicitis operation, thus find- ing out that her parents still love her.

Our days were filled with friendships dear, Filled, too, with memories that will be ever near. The parties, the games, the dances, The notes we passed with knowing glances, These were all part of our high school days. The time spent each day in class, The report cards and hopes that each would pass, These, loo, were part of our high school ways. Fut now that graduation looms near at last, It seems that the years have too quickly passed; We'll not forget friends as we go our separate ways, And we'll always remember our fun-filled high school days.
