HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF 1947

BY RADEL, BROWN, P. B., AND LOGAN

Once upon a t ime there " ·a, an old fort; by name-Fort Howe. It lrns located in T orthern Indiana, et aside from civilization and surrounded by vast hordes of savage Indians. At the pleading cry for more people our first '1 rail Blazer', "I killed a bar on this pot" · Glen Radel, donned hi , buck-skins and on August 13th, 19-J.O, began his long trek through the wilderness to Fort Howe. One month later after numerous bribes to the Indians of the finest \Visconsin c heese, he burst forth into the clearing to be greeted by "Don't s hoot 'till yo u see the \vhites of their eyes" Jim l\Ierritt, who immediately howed him hi s stat ion on the rampart.

Later in that ame year, about New Years, in time for the New Year's Celebration, "Don't let this happen to you" Bob Logan, the originator of the 'Girl of the 11onth Club' left his prize harem to join the ranks of our s mall garr:son After receiving; trict inspection and a report for no shoes from Colonel Bouton, he shouldered his musket a nd took his position beside Glen.

Just then a hideou s peal of laughte r echoed through the wood , followed by none other than 'Klondike Bob Smith,' arriving with a bear in one hand and a copy of ' Field and Stream' in the other. He immediately became a substantial supporter of our gradua ll y increasing reserves.

We can't exactly explain how our next character arrived but it did, as a matter of fact for third mess. It was our one and only Parke Brmvn, chief electrician, master fuse blower, and president of the "Don't Frown; See B :·own Club." Drawing his musket and bandolier the following day he immediately fell to the gruelling task of carry ing on his duties for the years to come.

It was in the dead of the following night that a body floated past the outposts of the savage Indians. It was 'Breather' Rice toting a keg of his finest Ohio Home Brew. A few minutes later, in hot pursuit, came Welling Squier ('Lover Boy'). You must remember that he was after the keg. However, we managed to detain him from his wanderings for the period of six years.

The next to join our number was Timothy Bill 'Coonskin' Gehlert. By sticking two feathers in hi s hat he managed to pass as one of the Indians and arrived with little difficulty.

Arriving at this time in the yea r of 19-+2 "Boze" Maddox traveling along Indian Path No. 9, on which, by the way, he lost his horse in a poker game, accidentally s igned the school register which, unknown to him, took him out of circulation for the next five years.

The next month in one of the nearby fields, by the skeleton of a St. Bernard, our daily patrol discovered the still-warm body of 'Horrible' Horace Corbin, the terror of Vermont. The author of the "Lady of the Lake," or more commonly known as "The Chick of the Creek," was revived after seve!"al shots of formaldehyde from our beloved veterinarian. Dr. Alf Wade.

Fresh from the borders of Mexico came "Pedrito" Gavrila with high hopes of s tarting a revolution at the fort. After several exchanges of wampum with "Earl the Squirrel" he came out of the Q. M. \Vith $163.72 worth of baseball equipment and the bar of soap that he originally went in for.

Having this many in our militia we decided to form into cornpames. After tedious hours of thought, it was decided that they should be called "A," "B," and "C" companies.

Coming from Detroit and Yp·ilanti, re:pect ivel y, higlnraymen Akers and :'\Iatthew. attempted a daring holdup of the Kingsbury house-total haul $5.03 . a heated argument about who was to receive the extra penny, they decided upon a <l11el. Because of wounds inflicted during the battle they "·ere brought to Howe for medical treatment from which they recovered in fou.r years

One night our patrol came upon a ghastly sight-a man being toasted at the stake. Still clutched tightly in his right hand was the remains of his Varsity sweater. Crn.•ss \dlO? Our own "Ra:putin" Raeburn.

Receiving the Bishop's Bronze Cheerioat Medal at Plymouth Hal Page decided to try for the Golden Banana award, given exclusively at Ho,,·e. You'll have to ask him as to the success of his endeavors.

Arriving in his experimental forty-five pony power midget racer, Coe Dicke y, being impressed by cadets receiving conduct ribbons at a parade, decided to sink hi s efforts into winning one for him elf . After four years we are proud to announce that Co:: has-earned-ah---one.

Coming , trictly for the love of port , Jame s Hadden swaggered into our little abode. A fe"· days later a specia l tage coach arrived from Adrian, Michigan, carrying three cases of basketball and two ca e of baseball \vhich kept Jim quite content for the next four years.

\Vith high hopes of drilling ome new oil well in the wilderne of Indiana , came Jim Telisky. He didn't have much succe s in the oi l business in Indiana, but he di<l a fine job in his career here at Fort Howe .

Promi ing to supply Col. Bouton \Vith a new Ford each year, Henry Ford managed to get hi great-great-great grand on, Ed Ford, into our beloved Fort. Ed turned out to be the originator of the majority of practical jokes that were played at Howe, and we love him for it

Arriving from the North sometime later Herb Quandt met Bill Buckel and together they bla zed away toward our growing Fort to become two of its most loyal members.

As our Fort had became very well known through the states by this time ( 19-H) a few new member were added to our check roll. Ohio and Indiana seemed to dominate. Ohio contributed Wally l\lyers, Cliff Boyce and Herb Heinrichs, and we are grateful that she contributed these very fine members to u Indiana, the home state of the Fort, -came across with three very fine members, namely Verne Pulling, Dave Auer, and Phil Minton. We are thankful for the contribution of our home state. Along with these came three loyal members from Michigan. We were proud to have Jim l\1etros, Bill Cronenwett, and Bill Walters added to our ro ter.

Arriving a little late that year, mostly because they didn't think they wou ld like the orientation program, came Sam Gregory from the mother state, and Bob Common from the northern part of Mich igan. They stuck out the remainder of the years at Howe.

] u t last year in the fall of '..J.5 came our last members, Ted Roberts ('the Golden Voice of Howe'), Frank McArdle and Jack Sidell Along with these men cam e Carlos Obediente, our ambassador from the Dutch East Indies. Carlos might ha ve arrived a few years soo ne r, but he had a long journey.

Under these last four names we drew the line, and this list comprises the members of the 1947 graduating cla of Howe Mi lit ary School, as it is now ca lled

LOWER SCHOOL PASSES IN REVIEW

Starting with a new set of officers the Lower Company developed and ·showed up splendidly in parades Captain Stuckey perfected a group in silent drill maneuver for the Commencement Exercises. The roster of student officers was : Second Lieutenants Bouton, N., Vo lp e, Obering, J. , and \\Tilson, R.; F i rst Sergeants Hunter; Staff Sergeants Gibson, Rorres and Ober; Sergeants U ndenrnod, G., Ford, R., Partridge, Gillow, Nesbit t , Ohmart, G., Su lli van, Owens, l\!1cGa rvey, Riddell, Haynes, H., l\iallett; Corpora ls O'Ne il , Rognlie, H., Cour im, Gross, R. L., Hayes, C., Kishman, Ritter, Peddie; Privates First Class Savoldi, Hutchinson, Todd, Reith, Stout, Traver, Prible, Coffma n , Houghtby, Rozan, Reichelt; Reichelt was promoted to Corporal. Cadets Ansted, Becker, Bouton, P., Cappas, DeBerry, De Foe, Dixon, Dollas, Frederick, P., Gamron, Gross, R. E., Hackett, Hiatt, Hunt, Ibbottson, Kennedy, Obering, W., Ohmart, \V., Ohmart, B., Reeves, Reynolds, Sackett, Smauch, Silverston, Steele, Tolley, \Veinberg and \Vright were promoted to Privates First Class .

Special mention shou ld be made of Cappas, Ko g lesc hatz, V nderwood , Dixon, Partridge, Owens, Dallas for the wonderful conditions of th eir rooms and alcoves during the year. There were a bout thi rty-t hree good conduct ribbon \Vinners this year. Over half the Lo\ver Cadet Corps was in th e Star List.

Prospects for footba ll a nd other a thl et ic teams were far from bright at the start of the season as a large numbe r of bo ys who had been on championship teams had gone to the Upper Schoo l. Still the sp irit of the Lower ahvays remain the same. The Knicks and Whites had a severe a nd sp irited rivalry in football even to the coaches Mr. Runge for Whites anod Mr. D. Q. Jones for the Knicks All the games were close and spirited, 7-6, 7-0, 13-0, 6-0. The Whites lost the championship by a small margin.

A strong sq u ad of Varsity boys coached by Mr. Strow gave a good account of themselves. They stepped out of their class to defeat the "B" club teams of the other sid e.

Because of no organized Midget team the Lower played the "B" teams of the compan ies. The scores were as follows : Co. CB 6-Lower 0; Co. BB 0-Lower 32; Co. AB 7-Lo\ver 13; Co. BB-4 Lower 13; Co. CB 26- Lower 0; Co. AB 6-Lower 7; Co. CB 0-Lower 7. The final ga me with the champion team CB on Founders' Day \'\.' as a thriller. Ritter broke through the line for a long run to win the game for the Lmver after a tight battle . This was the only defeat "C" Co. suffered the whole yea r. The letter men were Savoldi , McGarvey, Obering, ]., Hunter, Nesb itt , Kogleschatz, Kerri gen, Underwood, Ritter (Co-Captains) Volpe Mallett, Bouton, N ., Gibson, Reynolds, and Peddie.

Soccer was played between the club teams by those not on the basketball squad up to the holida y seaso n. Mr. Jones, D. R. and Mr. Runge and Strow coached the soccer. Mr. Jone s, D. Q. began his basketball squad.

Social events crnwded the calendar all year. The big opening event was the Hallowe'en Party. It was held in the Living Room of White Hall which had heen transformed into a witches' paradise with fantastic, weird and eerie decorations and effects produced by the magician :Mr. Runge and his helpers. The weather was fine and the harvest moon was shining. A happy crowd of youngsters and grownups ga thered for the frivolities from all over the campus. There we:-e costumes, original , comical and beautiful. The best looking costumes were worn by Norman Bouton and Rhys Ford; the most comical by Volpe and Rozan, the most original by Hunter and Wilson. Barbara Jones and Gretchen Downs were prize winners representing the campus. Mr. Ibbotson played for the musi cal chairs. Fortune tellers were present \'\.7 ho looked into the future. Mrs. Miller, Mrs. Rice and the faculty served refreshmrnts to the crowd.

. car the Yacation came the big party with Santa Claus present w brighten tht' occasion with gifts for all. ::\Irs. Kelly and l\Irs. Slater coached a group of hoy ,- ,,·ho presented a very interesting program and declamations, skits and musical selections. The cadets under the direction of l\I r. Ibbotson led all in the singing of Christmas Carols. l\Iany parents and campus guests were present to help the boys celebrate. ·

Right after examinations came the big mid-winter social event-the Football Banquet in honor of the Varsity Squad which had uch a succe sful season. The faculty and taff were present and the Superintendent honored the team. After a most delicious dinner as only the Kingsbury House can serve it, the cadets on the squad received their letters from l\lr. StrO\v.

Immediately after the football season there were the usual activities periods where each boy participated in Speech classes, Art, Tumbling, Club Basktball both Junior and Senior, Hobbies, and Boxing. Captain Stuckey guided the hobby work, Mr. Runge, Tumbling and Basketball; l\lr. Stro\v, Boxing; Mrs. Slater, Art; Mrs. Kelly, Speech. Mr. D. R. Jones helped in skating, hikes, tobogganning and nature trip s . l\lrs. Downs cared for all the grades.

The boxing instructions aided the Golden Glove competition. This was held after Spring Vacation w ith O'Neil, De Berry, McGarvey winning in their respective classes. One more match remains between Volpe and Nesbit to decide the winner.

The basketball sea on started in earnest during the soccer season with the Coach Jone s, D. Q. having no regulars from the Championship team of the year before. Only Ford, Bouton, N., and l\lcGarvey had any experience with that team. Mr. Jones worked hard to perfect play and the team during the season did have some real highli ghts. One \Vas again t the difficult Honeyville team-the only one to defeat the team of the year before. Too, on the trip to Toledo to play l\1aumee Country Day and Pike Schools in Ohio did the team reach heights winning the majority of games on the road. The squad was McGarvey, Ford, (Co-Captains), Bouton : N ., Ritter, Peddie, Underwood, Reynolds, Hays, Hackett , Gibson, Sackett and Gillow. A 19 game schedule was played.

The club teams had a spirited series which was won by the Knick Seniors and the \Vhite Juniors.

There was an exciting tournament among the seniors in ping pong which was won by Savoldi with Gibson as runner-up.

Fifty-two candidates presented themselve to Fr. Jennings for the tumbling sq uad in preparation for the June Exhibition. After much practice the squad was cut to the following cadets: Becker, De Berry, Kishrnan, Mallett, Nesbitt, Obering, J., Savoldi, Volpe, DeFoe, Peddie, Ritter , Bouton, N., Denman, Kerrigen, Rognlie, P. , Rorres, Steel, Wedge, Reeves, Kennedy, Tolley, Courirn, Dollas, Hornbeck, Obering, \V. , Rieth, O'Neil, Wright, Galmish, Bouton, P., Frederick McKinnon, Marsh and Patterson The Fiery Hoop of Death will again be a feature with clown falls, and other features. Poljak ·will be the assistant director following in the footsteps of Glendinning, Bob Murphy, Henderso n and Reisig.

During the Spring seaso n, Mr. Strow worked up a strong track team. They have a meet with La Grange and a few are being taken to the Elkhart Sectional Meet. Savoldi is doing five feet in high jump. Mr. Jones, D. Q. , is coaching softball for the cadets not on the Varsity Baseball Squad. Coach Jones, D. R., is working with the beginners in tennis-Kishman , Rognlie, H., Rognlie. P., and others. Captain Stuckey is busy whipping his baseball team into shape. Middlebury was swarnpted 19 to 7 on its own grounds. The bad spring weather has kept the playing fields in bad shape. His squad consists of Pitchers-Reynolds, Ford, Bouton, N ., McGarvey; Catchers-Hunter, Galmish, and Tolley; Fielders-Hackett, Obering , ]., Dixon, Kogelschatz, Kennedy; Infielders-Gibson, Gillow, Hunt, Nesbitt, Peddie, Savoldi, Underwood, Volpe, Weinberg, Heap and Sackett is manager. The Knicks and Whites played softball with the Knicks winning.

The club track meet brought out much talent. For the \Vhites, Savo ldi and Underwood were tied for honors with 13 points apiece. For Whites Jr., O'Nei l took honors at 15 points and Gamron was second with 11 Y2 points . For the Senior Knicks, Owens was honor man with Ford and Kogelschatz tied for second honors. For Junior Knicks Galmish scored 13-Yz points and Traver scored second honors.

The Todd Literary Society enjoyed a very successful year under Mrs. Kelly's direction. Their officers \Vere: President, Courim; Vice-President, Rozan; Secretary and Treasurer, Dallas, O'Neill. They presented plays, skits, declamations and musical selections to make very intere ting evenings.

The McKenzie Literary Society under the direction of Fr. Jennings had a very busy year with many features, oral debates, declamations, skits, musical selections on trumpet, violin, piano, special feature movies and interesting talks by visiting speakers. Capt. Glenn gave a very fine talk on under water sounding; Lt. Cooper and J\Iaj. Thompson talked on Japan and China. The officers who guided the soc iety this year were President, Volpe; Vice-President, Gibson; Secretary, Bouton, N.; Assistant Secretary, Obering, ]. ; Treasurer, Rorres; Parliamentarian, Hunter. Mr. Baackes, an old Lower boy, presented the Society with a fine gavel. The Society had a fine out-of-door picnic at North Twin Lake. There were games, good food, hamburgs fried in the open and pop. The whole Lower Staff helped and there were other outside guests.

During the year Fr. Jennings had a faithfu l group of acolytes numbering over twenty. The group consisted of old church boys and the newly confirmed: Frederick, Bouton, P., Becker, Ansted, Bouton, N.,· G ibson, Dixon, Hutchinson, Gamron, Heap, Tolly , Ibbotson, Prible, l\1cGarvey, Rorres, Wedge, Sullivan, Courim, Hornbeck, and Mallett the Head Server . There were meetings for instruction in churchmanship and proper serving at the altar.

This year a special drive has been made to improve the music in the whole school. Mr. Ibbotson is at the Lower nearly every morning t'o direct all the cadets in g-roup singing. He has had many choir practices to produce fine voices who have sunr: quite a few times away from the campus. Mr. Ibbotson ha s had fine results with boy choirs. We expect to hear a singing group from the Lower at Commencement time.

The Lower boys in the choir were: Sopranos-Becker, Bouton, P., Gamron, Gross, R. E., Steele, Mallett, Prible, Kennedy, Courim, Coffman, Ruffer, Freder ick, P., Ibbotson, Obering, W., Dallas, Jackson, Patterson, B. Altos-Gross, R L., Gillow, Rognlie, H., Wedge and Weinberg.

The Lower cadets gave most generously to char iti es including the Lenten Mite Boxes, The Cancer Fund, The Crippled Children's Fund and the Red Cross.

Our Library has had several new books added this year for the enjoyment of the cadets. Better reading is being emphasized by Mrs. Kelly. Her remedial reading classes have been quite a help to some boys who were ha ving difficulties On Washington's Birthday under the direction of l\1rs. Kelly and Mrs. Slater the Lower boys did well in their declamations befor e the schoo l at Blake Hall. Ah:o in a contest for medals, their work was superlative-Kog leschatz received first p!ace in th e Humorous select ion with Riddell second; McGarvey was first in Oratory and Nesbitt gave the best Declamation.

There was an exh ibition of all the Lower cadets' academic work. It consisted of maps, notebooks, papers in all subjects and projects. Many practical things were made in Art Class this last year-mats, belts, etc. Models and other art creations were under the supervision of Captain Stuckey and Mrs. Slater.

In the academic work this year, the following boys have been elected to· the Beta Lambda Sigma for the highest academic achievements, Thomas Cappas, David Hackett, Helge II Rognlie, Charles Courim, Neal Patterson, Robert E. Gross, Richard Sackett, Gerald Underwood and Peter Bouton. The officers and old members were :President McGarvey, Vice-President Gillow, Secretary and Treasurer, Richard L. Gross,

Hasbrouck Hayne:. :\Icetings were held with the sponsor and two initiations were cond11ctcJ. A joint dinner \ms held with the C pper Honor Society. "A" groups were taken to entertainments, shows and movies by Fr. Jennings. l\Iany Rrward of :\Ierit cards "·ere issued this year for fine study records. The mo t "A" privilege carJs were received by Gillow, Gross, R. L., Cappas, Haynes, Hackett, Sackett. l' nderwood, \\',.right, Rognlie, H., :\IcCarvey, Ohmart, Dollas, Bouton, P., Bouton, N ., Courim, Obering, J. Fifty-one boys received "A" privileges at some time this year. This is a splendid record for it means a BPI average in academic and an AP l in conduct.

Going back to social events there was a post vacation Carnival with all the color and noise and fun of a real Carnival. The cadets with the: help of Mr. Strow and l\lr. Runge transformed the gymnasium into a tent sho\Y with real barkers, pop, hotdogs and all the trimmings. A great number of parents and friends were present for the fun to knock down the bottles, ring the hook, hit the dodging target, shoot the targets, visit the museum, etc. The Carnival was a great success for all attending.

Then there were the Todd and l\IcKenzie picnics. The Todd picnic \Vas held at North Twin beach where Mrs. Kelly with the help of the Lower Faculty planned a very successful picnic with hamburgers hot off the fire, potato sa lad , pop, pies and other goodies. These were added to the fun of games and contests.

Then to head all the picnics came the a nnual Lower picnic at Cedar Lake with games, softball, eats, boating, swimming, tugs-of-war and other events.

l\Iothers' Day saw a fine social occasion in the dance at the Lower. The Lower School Living Room had been transformed into a bower of flowers and miniature Lakes by the magic touch of l\lr. Runge and his committee of Honor Society boys who sponsored the dance. The dance band gave out music for every kind of taste-soft and draggy and fa t-stepping music. A receiving line headed by President l\1cGarvey and his date, Fr. Jenning , Bi hop and Mrs. Mallett, Col. and l\,frs. Bouton and the Lower Faculty. There were over 50 guests and cadets on the floor. The ceiling was a bower of color with balloons reaching acres the center. Refreshments v;rith special decorations of carnations with a mothers face were served along with special rakes. This was an affair never to be forgotten.

The wheel ride to Ft. Wayne came on June 2nd. Over fourteen riders left for the Kingsbury House for breakfast early in the morning ready for the long push. The cadets stopped all along the line at the towns for eats and rest. Arriving at Avilla, lun ch was eaten along side the road. At Hotel Keenan there was a friendly welcome, showers, a sumptuous dinner and show. Then back to Howe really tired and happ y. The riders were Hayes, Kogelschatz, Mallett, De Berry, De Foe, Elliott, Becker, Hunter, Bouton, N., Dixon, Cappas, Gillow, Bouton, L., Poljak and Mr. Runge and Fr. Jennings.

The All-Point l eaders now are Cadets Gillow, Cappas, Hackett, Underwood, Courim, Gross, R. L., Rognlie, H., McGarvey, Heap, Bouton, N There is a tight race right down to the last lap.

Beginning with the ·waterme lon ride in the fall there were many Sunday hikes taken by faculty members. The boys went to man y parts of the country around Howe including nature walks near the rivers and lakes. There were many monthly Star List feeds for tho se cadets lucky to keep their conduct high.

It was a bann er year with few irritations, little sickness and many happy activities There were many instructive and entertaining sound movies shown by Hunter and his staff. 1\lr. Hunter also, generously sent some fine free movies to the cadets. Mrs. Miller arranged many parties on birthdays and this made life more happy for everyone. So the end of the year comes, climaxed by the joy of receiving diplomas by the eighth grade for work finished. Also there will be many rcipients of prizes for a little special effort over others. To these and all our departing boys hearty congratulations are extended on their promotions and honors. There is always a sadness in parting but a joy in going forward and higher. May we expect a newsy l etter all about the summer to reach here about August first for the yearly Lower Family Letter.

THE ORDER OF ST. VINCENT

Affiliated with the Order of St. Vincent, national guild for acolytes, the servers at Howe carried on the work in splendid fashion during the past school year. It is doubtful whether a better trained, more efficient and more faithful group of acolytes cou ld be found anywhere in the Church.

Cadet Heinrichs has served as Head Acolyte during the past year under the direction of Father Murphy.

THE HOWE HERALD

Every week during the school year the school's own newspaper has been published, and every week it has been read by hundreds of people all over the country.

The Howe Herald has become the principal factor in reporting the many school events to the parents at home and also to cadets here on campus. The alumni are kept in constant touch with all school activities and their changes of address are announced for others to see.

This year the Howe Herald started its year under the supervision of Mr. Allen, and was later taken over by Mr. Keefer. Members o.f the Cadet Corps form a staff and elect their own editor who then has the responsibility of running the paper. This year this difficult job was very nicely handled by Cadet Dick Finch.

Pictured above are a number of cadets who have shown a real interest m publishing the Herald, and who have held various positions on the staff throughout the year.

THE OLD GUARD

The Old Guard is composed of cadets and masters, members of the school for at least four years. Seniors may be elected into the club after three and a half years if they are passed by an unanimous vote of all members

By selling flowers for the formal dances, an old standby of the organization, they plan to continue the project started last year of constructing a room in one of the new buildings here on campus. This room will contain all pictures of former classes and will be used by the Alumni as a meeting place when they pay visits to the school.

THE VARSITY "H" CLUB

The Varsity "H" Club is probably one of the most highly esteemed organizations on the campus.

Here we find the Varsity letter men in an association which has as its aim the p :·omotion of good sportsmanship on campus. All men who are awarded a Varsity letter are considered for membership and accepted on the basis of character.

Being one of the largest and most widely representative clubs on the campus, the Varsity "H" Club has had several feeds and other social events during the course of this year.

Beginning the year under the superv1s1on of Mr. Stambach the organization now has as its faculty adviser Mr. Tingley.

The Varsity "H" initiations are always looked forward to by all members of the Cadet Corps.

Bottom Row: Frederick, DE., Whittaker, Brown, vV., Pulling, Radel, McArdle, Insley, GE., Finch.

THE ISOH CLUB

With such an umque name the Science Club members hold their heads high among other organizations here on campus. The club is composed of cadets who have shown a desire to know more about the mysteries of science.

The club has been active this year, holding many meetings at which time various scientific topics discussed. These subjects always differ, but one that seems to hold the mind of most of the cadets is the atomic age and its influence upon our future.

Under the direction of Mr. McGill the Science Club has done much to help make all aware of the many problems of science and some of the ans wers.

Top row (left to right): Bonnewitz, Hickson, Schultz, Habeck, Mr. McGill, Stauffer, JW., Kissick, Lamb, Stephenson.

THE NON-COMMISSIONED OFFICERS CLUB

Meeting bi-weekly with the Superintendent, along with a member from the Sword and Shield Club, the three highest ranking non-commissioned officers of each of the Upper School companie discuss problems of the Campus.

After a discussion of any problems that may be found connected with life here at Howe, this organization offers suggestions to the Sword and Shield Club. In this manner it is found that closer contact may be kept with the Cadet officers and the rest of the Corps.

THE COMUS CLUB

When first organized, the Comus Club had the grand total of eight members and was called "The Eight Club." After a short life the club went into what might be called a dormant tage, and remained so until 1943 when under the helping hand of Mr. Tucker the club was again formed under the present name. The name was derived from the name of the god of joy and mirth.

With the helping hand and guidance of Mr. Tucker, the members did some real acting this year, having produced a three act play entitled "Outward Bound"; four one-act plays were also presented, "A Fiance for Fanny," "A Cup of Tea," "Four on a Heath" and "The Other Side," all of which were greatly enjoyed by the members of the Cadet Corps.

This year the Comus Club has been granted charters to the following national organizations-The National Thespian Society, for dramatics; The National Masque and Gavel, for speech, and the newest, The National Forsenic League, for speech and debate.

THE VIRES SOCIETY

For the past two years the Vires Society has been working on a project to help rebuild a school in ravaged Europe. The school sponsored has been The Boys School of Houffalize, Luxemburg, Belgium. The project is carried on through the National Preparatory Schools Committee of the Y.M.C.A. Through this Committee the members of the Society try to raise a fund of $150.00 a year which they earn by doing , in their free time, any jobs they can find.

In addition to the raising of this fund, the Society aims to raise the moral and spiritual tone of the Corps as a whole.

The Society functions under the faculty supervision of Col. Bouton and Mr. Miner.

HOWE RADIO CLUB

Starting with very little more equipment than they had last year the Radio Club now has almost as much equipment as a regular full power radio station. This year the Radio Club has become one of the more prominent organizations on campus.

All boys interested in radio were asked to join the club, but not everyone was eligible. A list of requirements was drawn up and all cadets were required to meet these before they were admitted to the club.

The Radio Club is the only organization on the campus which can boast of having its own building. This building is located next to Col. Bouton's home. After a complete house cleaning and general repairing the dub opened its doors for this year.

The club's faculty adviser is again Mr. Oppy, who has had a lot of experience in radio. Mr. Oppy, in trying to teach the cadets more about radio, has set up many experiments which the cadets work out in their free time.

BETA LAMBDA SIGMA

Beta Lambda Sigma, Lower School honor society, is composed of Lower cadets who for at least one semester have attained high academic and conduct ratings. Cadets remain members so long as these standards are maintained

Beta Lambda Sigma is to the Lower School what Alpha Delta Tau is to the Upper School and membership is eagerly sought by all Lower cadets.

THE RIFLE TEAM

It takes skill and calm nerves to align the sights correctly on the tiny bullseye of a rifle target, but this year the school was fortunate in having a: number of boys who could qualify for this job.

With the P.M.S.&T., Major McAlister, as their instructor, these boys became proficient in their rifle marksmanship, and showed possibilities of becoming one of the outstanding teams in this part of the country.

The entire team fired in the Second Army Service Command, and achieved a high score, for which they will receive Varsity awards at Commencement. They also participated in many other matches throughout the year, and set a fine record for the teams in the future to follO\v.

VARSITY FOOTBALL

Again thi yea r Howe played Var ity Football. The fir t day of practice sho wed that there was plenty of interest and Coaches Stambach and Davis immediately started looking for good material.

The first game of the season was with the Garrett Reserves and the team "steamrollered" to victory, w hich seemed to start it off on the right foot for a successful season.

Next, the team piled into cars and traveled to Wabash to Io.se to a tricky and experienced team with a smooth "T" formation.

Then the Howemen , again on the road, went to Lansing and after watching a Michigan State College game they lost a muddy night game to Lansing Tech.

Founders' Day brought the final game of the year against the Elkhart Reserves. Howe had been beaten by Elkhart previously, but went out to seek a glorious revenge. The game was played by both teams in wonderful fashion. The "Cats" played the game with plenty of spirit and were outstanding in their tackling, but they could not keep pace with Elkhart's touchdowns. The final score was 13-0 in Elkhart's favor, so an inexperienced but hard fighting Howe team bowed out

The following are those who were awarded Varsity letters: Chalfant, Commons, Dickey, Ellison, Fox, Gehlert, Godfrey, Hadden, Heine, Herring, Logan, Matthews, Milholland, Poljak, Radel, Raeburn, Shook, and Wiles.

Cadet Radel was chosen as the team's captain after the end of the season.

VARSITY BASKETBALL

"Indiana madness" hit Howe this y ear in a grand manner. Hitting the first few games with an unsea soned team , the boys came through under the consistent clirection of Coach Davis and Tingley to win their last ten games. After losing four of their first five games the team first showed signs of progress by knocking off a rival Shipshev1,' ana team ++-30 and continued by defeating Orland 36-32.

Immediately following Christmas vacation the "Cats" met the powerful Lima team again in a game which could almost be called fate. The game \vas lost 32-33 Howe led by on e po int up to within three seconds of the close of the game when Lima dropped in a shot just as the buzzer sounded.

In the County Tourney the team started out easily to beat Brighton 46-18. The test came the following day when they were to meet the Shipshewana outfit again. Although Howe had easily defeated the Indians before, nothing seemed to go right that Saturday afternoon and the Howe men were forced to bow out with the score 31-36.

Then the team came to the successful end of their schedule. Playing ten games they lost only two of them. The teams that they defeated were: LaGrange, 29-17; Detroit University School, 67-24; Brighton, 44-15; A lbi on, 47-34; Scott, 38-18, Salem Center, 52-42, and Lima 29-28 (overtime). The Lima-Howe struggle was the first game in the Sectional Tourney and it was played in typical Indiana style keeping the spectators on their feet continuously. The games which the team lost were to Cranbrook in an overtime 31-33 and the second game in the sectional against a strong Ligonier team 24-30 .

Thus ended another season of basketball at Howe. Outstanding were Bob Raeburn, leading scorer of the season, Jerry Fox, who showed remarkable improvement to become a tough center, Dave Auer, who consistently came through with a gGod share of the points and hard work, and speedy little "Pappy" Poljak who repeatedly was where he was needed and had a wonderful knack with long shots

Following the season Cadets Bob Raeburn and Jim Hadden were cho sen captains by a vote of the letter-men.

The letter-men for the season were Raeburn, Fox , Auer, Poljak, Hadden, Cronenwett, Heine and Telisky.

WRESTLING

The varsity wrestling team again this year completed a very successful season. The team started out under the able direction of Coach Stambach and finished the season with Mr. Kelly coaching them.

Although wrestling is quite a new sport here at Howe the team has showed a vast amount of improvement in the past three years. One indication of this is that when wrestling was first taken up, Howe was no match for the mighty Sturgis team, but this year the team defeated Sturgis all three times they were matched against them.

The "muscle-men" lost to a very tough Hammond Park team and by a narrow margin to Morgan Park Military School, but they came back splendidly to defeat Cranbrook and South Bend Central.

The big time came though when they traveled to Bloomington to their bid in the State Tournament. With a successful season behind them they stepped into the tournament with a determined attitude and in two days came out in glorious fashion. The team as a whole placed sixth in the state and indivi·dually mighty "Mouldy Bobeck" took second and "Crusher" Gehlert took fourth.

All through the season the team was sparked by its co-captains, Ellison and Gehlert.
