Class History 1931

THE Hdory of Lhe class of J 931 begins one decade ago when a small boy cu riou sl y wa nd e red into the Lower S ·hool from the city o f C hi cago. Part of the glamour of this entry wa:, no doubt, obscured at the time by the coming of a n ew r ecto r, Falh e r Young. However, we now r ea.lize the importan ce of this small boy, not much lill' gc r now, Alexan r Alexanian, the :first memb e t· of our illustriou s C'lass.

Two years l n.Lcr, in the fall of 1923 , :moth e r mall boy, Louis Carson, enter ed the Lo\1' e r, also fr o m C hic ago, and now aLLempts to write Lhi s History of hi s cla s in a s concise and rcHdftb le a mann e r as possible.

The se fir s l two members of th e cla s, havin g been in the sc hool e ight or mor e years, have become "Com mand en;" in thi s year's "O ld Guard''.

In the fa.II of '24 the Lower rccci ved three more m emb e r s: "E d" Abbott, of Grand Rapid s, Mich.; Robert Davis, C r awfo rd sv ill e, lncl .; and S t ewart Jon es, Glenn Ellyn, Ill.

To top the next y 11.r, th e new buildi11g prognuu of the school was begun, so a new Lower chool wa s r eady to gr eet a . it · new m rnbers:" ick' Alter of Toledo, Ohio; " B en" Beyrer, Sou Lb Bend, Ind. ; LeRoy Krawitz, Chicago, Ill. ; and "Teel" Youd, Wyandotte, ficl1.

A. the !1.11tu111 n of 1927 came arnund Oscar Allyn, of Kalamazoo, Mich. stopped at White Hall, while other n ewcome r s e nte red the Middle School; namely Willis Cunning, of Ear-;L Liv erpool , Ohio; "Ben" Friedman, Indianapoli s, fod.; Lewi s Hawkins, Grand Rapid s , Mich.; Howard Lan e, Coral Gables, Fla.; " Fritz" Price, SLony Rid ge, Ohio; and Jack W e lf eld, Chicago, Ill.

The Choir

THE cho ir, under the direction 0£ Mr. William Hagan, c hoir-m aste r and organist, has just completed another successful season. Mr. Hagan, who is a member of the American Guild of Organists, has a very thorough and well-rounded musical ed ucatio n. He has done spec ial work under Canon Winfred Douglas 0£ the Commission on t he Revision of the Hymnals.

The c hoir, limited to thirty-two voices, is chosen from the whole sc ho o l. Under special supervi sion, spec ia l anthems are prepared and rendered for the Offertories, and spec ia l eve ning prayers nre s un g for the Orison hymn, on S unday s, which gives itmple space to show one's vocal ab ility Much praise mu st be g iven to Morley R. and Egnn who were soloist s throughout the year. Quite often Mr. Hagan is heard during the Offertories, renderin g an oTgan solo.

During the Lenten Period, The Reproaches, a form of worship u sed on Wednesday eve nin gs, is s ung , with the so lo parts belonging to the Cantor, s ung by a sextet c ho sen from the choir. Ap1)reciation is shown to cadets Bither, Davis R. E. , McPherson, Patterson D ., and Richardson.

ATHLETICS

The 1931 Football Season

ONSeplember 15, thirty-one men sacrificin g a part of their sLunmc r vacation, r epo rted to coac h Cory for the purpose of training for a n exceed in gl y difficult football sch edul e. Coach T. Linco ln Co r y of Ohio State imp a r ted to them the very best knowledge of football, a nd the sq u ad quickly responded to hi s ab .l e train ing. The Jact that the fir. t ga m e wns o nly twelve days h en ce necessitated int en se training and drill.

The cadets met t h ei r first opponents on the home field on Sat urda y, Septe mb e r 27. The J ac k so n team, after a se ri es of tackle smash es m ade a touchdown in Lh e first q uart e r. The cad ets, a.lthough o utwe i gh ed, a nd faced by a more expe ri enc ed team, prevented the opponents from scor in g aga in It ma.y b e noted t h at t he offensive a nd defensive work of Al ter N., Jones S., Maiullo, Hottensen, All en 13., an d Dibble h elp ed a g reat d ea l in holdin g back the co ll eg ians . The final score was : Jackson 7, Howe 0.

The seco nd ga m e of t h e season came two weeks l ate r 011 October 11 It was pl a yed at Central Cat holi c High Sch oo l in Fort Wayne, Indiana. The first h alf was uneve ntful for eit h er s id e, but in the second half, each team open ed it s aer ial a tt ac k. One of the Howe passes was intercepted a nd the opposing quarterback ran eighty yard s for a touchdown. F rom this point on, the Howe team p layed r eal football. Th e passes from Gammel to Seyferth and Krawitz netted many yard s On one of these passes Seyfe rth sco red six points, whil e Alte r put the ball acro ss the lin e twice. The final score was Howe 19, Ce ntral Catholi c 6.

Goshen High School, a n old rival of Howe, met the Wildcats on William's fi eld Sat urday, October 18t h. Tb e Goshen team sco r ed six points in t h e first h alf. In t he third quarter, a pass from Gammel to Alt er n etted at touchdown for Howe a nd Lhe extr a point was made. However, Goshen came back in t h e l ast period with all their

Wilh the def ea t of lh e previous week in mind the cadets stepped on the fiekl with renewed fervor, th ey were fully prepared to meet Cra nbro ok School of Detroit on the hom e field. Th e game was fealured by the beautiful broken field running of Aller N., nnd A lexanian, the lmrcl billing of Ridge, the clever punting and passing of Gammel, and the acc urate place kicking of Krawitz . Hotlensen, Jones S., and foiullo were towers of st rength on the defense. Krawitz sc ored nine points, Aller twelv e, Al exa nian , Rid ge, and Seyferth each scored ix points, and Swanson one. Making the final sco re Howe 4·0, C r anbrook 0.

The next Satu rd ay, November l, Howe again h ad visitors from Michigan.

Ga.mmel's passing and kicking wer e exce lleul, as was Seyfcrth's work at e nd. Howe touchdowns were made in th e fourth period by Alter and Seyfertl1 , both scoring on pa sses

The game played at Montpelier, Ohio was a highlight in our season, at this point t he team played its hardest, most agg r essive, football. The individual sta r s n11mhc1· eleven from the center to the ends and from the quarlcrback to the fullback, we had fast brillianl players. As bad as Lhc defeat wa s, !lontpelier s hould not be underest im ate d, as th eir se a so n before this rout wa s a particularly succcssJu l one, and th ey displayed a good ga me of footba ll against us. However, the Wildcats in their lust for sc ores Ii te ra ll y tore th e Ohion's line to pieces, and stopped their offense before it started A lt er and .Jones S. each accounted for twelve points, Krawitz ele ven, and Seyfcrth six. Th e sco re at the final g un was How e 41, Montp eli er 0.

THE SCHEDULE

The Basketball Season

IN view of Lh e fact that only three letter men of the previous year's team r et urned, and as a difficult schedule was faced, the Howe quintet did creditable work by hreaking even.

The first team composed of Krawitz, Gammel, Abbolt, Swanson, Whipple, and Dibble bore the brunt of the season's attack, holding up well against th e stiff competition. The reserves, Cunning, McPherson, Leslie, Alexanian, Hawkins, Cavan, Wilkens, Stewart D., and Thompson F. won all of their scheduled games and were ready at all times to fill in for the vars ity. A great amount of credit is due to Coach Cory for d eveloping a fine team out of the comparatively green material at hand. As the season progressed, the cadets steadily improved, winning fiv e out of the last seven games and defeating two teams which had previously defeate d them.

The team opened its season December 9, being defeated by Columbia City Indiana State Class "B" Champions 1930 . This was the fir t game to be play ed on the new gymn floor. Krawitz and Gammel performed exceptionally well for the cadets. The playing was creditable but a bit ragged. The next game of importanc e was with Lima. The Wildcats led up till the last few minutes 0£ play but were unable to hold the lead in a fast finish. Krawitz and Gammel were high scorers and Abbott deserved credit for bis fine defensive work. February 7th, the cadets crushed the Angola Five seemingly with little effort. This game started a se rie s of wins. Whipple accounted for the majority of the Howe baskets. The former defeat by Lima was then amply avenged as the cadets defeated the local school on their own floor 31-27. Gammel, Swanson, Krawitz, Abbott, and Whipple all deserv e a great deal of credit for their fine guarding and general defensive work. Again me e tin g Goshen High School, this time in their own gymn, the Wildcat cagers were defe a ted 32-23. The score was close throughout the game, the cadets leading at the end of Lhe first quart.er and standing twenty all at the end of the third quarter. Th e team's

chief weak ness seemed to li e in Lh eir inability to ga in possession of the ball. Gammel, Krawitz, D ibbl e, a nd Abbott we re th e hi gh score r s for Howe. The fina l ga me of th e eason produced the d efeat of Howe's a nci e nt ri val , Sturg is. The seaso n 's impro vement was great ly brought out in this game. Whipple a nd Gamme l led the Howe se oring, aceounting for 16 out of the 19 point

In view of thi s fact, we are giv in g a short summary of the activity of the team of the previou:s year, and a resume of the 1931 team as complete ly as the existing conditions allow.

A great deal of credit shou ld be given to both Coach Snow and Coach Haa>: for the ir conscientious efforts with the team.

The Howe track team is still in its infancy, lrnving been organized only for the past four yea r s. It start ed the 1930 season with a v ictory, defeating Coldwater, Sturgis and Bronson in an invitation meet. The next closely contested meet went to Battle Creek Junior College with a score of 58 to 64, Howe taking first places in the century, two-twenty, half-mile, high jump, and discus. In the l ast meet of the season the cadets easily defeated Co ld water 66% to 59,Ys.

The outstanding point-gainers for Howe, taking the season as a whole, were Brodie, Bosauko, and Shroeder in the dashes, Morgan in the half mile, Sch1rnck H. and Hawkins J. in the high jump, Swan in the pole vault, broad jump and shot put.

The school record of 130 feet for the javelin was broken by Schnack E. who threw the spear 136 feet, 4 inches.

The 1931 team felt greatly the loss of many of its old members who had graduated last June. However, the vete ran and new men of th is year are carrying on with great success.

LiLtle can be said as t he season is still young, but if early appearances count, thi s year's team will go a. long and we wish you all good luck.

Tennis Season

THEvarsity tennis team of 1930 under t h e ab le direcLion of Lieut. Dillard finished a schedu l e of six matches, winning five and losin g one. The season opened with a victory over Goshen, the Howe men winning 4-l; this victory was fol lowed by one over Ottawa Hills of Grand Rapids the next week. The match with Central of Grand Rapids proved to be the only defeat of the year The strong Cenlra l team w i1111ing 7-2. The remaining matches, which were v i cto ri es for Howe we re fine examp les of the training and cooperat ion which produced the s up er iority of the cadet teams.

Henry Lynch, captain and m1mbcr one, proved to be the outstanding player of the year, winning the schoo l ,clrn.mpionship a nd pairing with Leroy Krawitz to win the Joubles champions hip .

The Junior tennis team, composed of Cook, Despm·d, Dibble, Jahnke, Whipple, aud Stewart D., won two and tied one of the three sched uled matches.

To cadet Cook went the honor of winning U1e Junior tennis champ ionship. SUM

THIS year's club basketball season was closely and warmly co nt ested. The 13lake team l ed the first half of the season, but were overtaken by the consi ·tent Macks, who repeated their la t year's win. There proved to be only two conteuders for first place honors. The Dwigbts were completely outclas. eel from the beginning. Due to the effects of the coaching by the Mack mentor and the cooperation of Lhe team, the club put out one of the most outstanding i:ives in recent years. The Blakes sta rt ed the seaso n with the appearance of c fa1 chin g the c up , but lacked the consisten cy to finish out on top. An a ll club basketbalJ team •vas picked by the club coacl1es, Mr. Glass of the Macks, Mr. Bouton of the Blakes, and Mr. Nefl' of the Dwights. In order to win a place on this team it was necessary for a player to h ave been picked by at l east two coac h es .

'l'hc Chri stmas rarty closed the Fall te rm . Every boy received a toy a irplan e from the Chr istmas Tree and eac h master a facetious gift. Father Todd delighted the boys with a C hri stmas Tale. And one might say rjght here, how much pleasure the boys derived from the serial presentation of the "Dee r sl ayer" which Fath er Todd came to the Lower each Sat urday night to tell. lVIany's the boy who se happiest memory of Saturday night at the Lower is Father Todd's appearance aud the glorious stor ies he tells.

The Winter Term which brought skat in g and s lidin g also brought the r egular sleigh rid e to LaGrange. In addition to the s leigh it self, Pfaehler loaned his toboggan to the cause, and much good sport was had tossing it back and forth across the icy road behind Lhe sleigh as it s passengers Lumbled into the snow banks. The trip Lo LaGmnge whi ch had the lo cal hot dog ho stelry as its destination, gave Cnpta in Preston an iden, and very sho rtl y there appea red about the Lower, a hu ge and sturdy sled whicl1 while the snow lasted, lVIr. Anderson pulled about the country roads behind hi s car givin g the boys many exhi la ratin g moments ns the sled c£treened round .c ur ves ... a.nd somet im es into the snow-fi lled ditcl.t.

The Sp rin g term saw a numb er of dinners and picture shows tendered those boy s who had se rved during the year in various responsible capacit ies or who had hy their academic work merited rewa rd The biggest event of the Spring term however was of course the School Picnic h eld late in May at Cedar Lake. An a ll -day event, it brought the greatesL enjoyment to the youngsters. Swimming, boating , games with priz es, l aunchin g the g reat balloon, and best of best, the hu ge picnic hmch, gave a big time to a ll.

Father Jennings had durii1g the year, a faithful corps of acolytes from among the confi rmed boys of the Lower. In April they were a ll his guests for dinner au<l movies in Sturg is one eve nin g. Those who se rv ed this last year were Gray, Kinsey , Edgn.r, Hoadley, Ross, Sm ith J., and Lane M.

The Lower Schoo l Library was und er Father Jennings own cliarge this year and proved a useful and valuable adjunct to the Schoo l 's work, providing .material both

for academ ic reference wo rk and for t h e pleasurable occ up ation of lei s ur e time. As C hi ef Librarian, David Varnes, gave good service throughout t h e year , ass isted by the r es t of t h e Library Staff, Ch apman, Hoadley, Harders, Boaks, Edga r , Morse P., and Wade.

In dramatics the Lower School es t ab li she d a high precedent tl1is year with it s · a nnual Chri st m as Play. This year's play, "No Room at the Inn ", followin g the usual c us tom, was of a reli g iou s nature, the plot centering round the C hri stmas sto ry depictin g Lh e com in g of Joseph and Mar y to B ethl eh em, t h e pilgrimage of t h e wise m en from K in g Herod's co ur t to t h e manger, and the humble adoration of the sh epherd boy s . The play gave a viv id a nd co lor ful inte rpr etat ion of t h e stoq. The cost umin g and stage sets wer e parLiculady n ot wo rth y in this year's performnnce, es p ec i all y.in the presentation of the barbaric s pl e ndor of King Herod's co urt.
