HOWE High School 1 962
blocks and blocks of corridors, a myriad of offices,
classrooms, shops, and labs, home to thousands of
textbooks, home-away-from-home to nearly eight-
een hundred students. Howe has stood on Violet
Hill for a period of twenty-four years. Our beautiful
campus is the meeting place for memories of the
past and new trends and fads of the modern scene.
Howe High is a school having a heartbeat as real
as the tick of the Tower clock. Howe is laughter,
the jokes between classes, and the race against the
ever-menacing tardy bell. Howe is excitement, as
the ball goes over the goal line in the closing sec-
onds of a terrific game. Howe is struggling with the.
books, burning the midnight oil to take home a
good report card. Howe is pride and the enthusi-
asm displayed by a loyal student body. Howe is the
past, which has laid a firm foundation for an en-
joyable present we'll never forget. Howe is the fu-
ture and the work entailed to insure its brightness.
These are the many faces of Thomas Carr Howe
High School: its laughter, its excitement, its strug-
gles, its pride, and its hopes. We the people make
up these emotions,- we are the heartbeat of Howe.
Howe is a part of us, and yet, we make up Howe.

Howeites learn about the world, enjoy
:-.,^r
Busy Howeites, always on the go, made time to
keep up with the abundance of news in today's
world. An eventful year, 1961-1962 brought many
news stories which changed our times.
On February 20, America triumphed once again
in the space race when Marine Lt. Colonel John
Glenn, Jr., successfully completed a triple orbit of
the earth.
The crisis over the "Berlin wall" caused reserve
troops to be called to active duty. Latin America
continued to be a problem.
Americans, with the rest of the free world, joined
in mourning the death of United Nations Secretary-
General Dag Hammarskjold of Sweden.
Signs of progress around Indianapolis were new
schools to accommodate expanding city limits.
Because our future lives depend on the decisions
and plans of today's adults, we want to be well-
informed as to their ideals and visions so that we
can carry on as leaders of tomorrow's society.
Rising twenty-seven stories into the sky, the new City-County
Building in downtown Indianapolis can be seen from our
campus. The city's tallest building was finished this year.
Wild sweaters were the order during winter months. Crew-
necks, ski and vest sweaters, shawl neck and v-neck are chosen
by "smart" Howe guys: Lanny Simpson, Dan Breckenridge,
Charles Ewing, William Aust, and James Spear.
new modern fads
Everything went big in the year 1962, especially
purses. Carrying all things, sometimes even the in-
evitable kitchen sink, purses resembled tackle
boxes, saddle bags, and picnic baskets.
Sweaters appeared in a variety of styles, espec-
ially those tailored for Howe's men. Thick bold-
striped cardigans, plain pull-overs, and plaid "pon-
cho" sweaters were extremely popular.
Clothes and hair-dos were certainly sharp in '62.
Sporting hair-dos of varying lengths and shapes, gals wore
pixie cuts, bouffants and the page boy. Brenda Beshear Ann
Abernethy and Eileen Whitworth model their coiffures.
Susan Downey searches desperately for a pencil in her trunk-
sized purse as Cheryl Snyder and Cheryl Bauer dig into
theirs. "Satchels" ranged from large to larger to huge.
Rollers in hair, 'phone in hand, and homework set aside, Doris
Roesener demonstrates one of the typical positions of modern
teenage relaxation. Many students prefer more conventional
plans for study, utilizing a desk and chair, while still more
Howeites do their lessons at the public library. Finishing our
homework we use many facilities in order to make the grade.
Studies, extra-curricular and outside
Wearing steady shirts and hand holding are part of the spring
scene typified by seniors, Peggy McCormick and Byron Buck
as they leave school and head toward home and homework.
-
After-the-game dances always draw large crowds of happy
Howeites. Spinning the records are usually various Indianapolis
disc jockeys. Dances are sponsored by the Hi-Y and ROTC.
Howeites joined scores of the young and the young at heart to
test and improve their skating ability when Indianapolis' new-
est recreational facility, the Ellenberger skating rink, was open-
ed in November of 1961. Because of the success of the ex-
perimental rink, the Park Department now plans to construct
several more of the popular skating rinks throughout the city.
activities broaden the lives of Howeites
When Howeites aren't in classes or doing home-
work, a wide variety of extra-curricular activities,
from clubs to sports, is available for them.
Friday night openhouses sponsored by the Downey
Avenue Christian Church, become an "essential" part
of the life of Howeites.
The winter season became more delightful this
year as Ellenberger Park opened its new outdoor
ice skating rink. For some, skating was a new thing,
but after practice and many falls, they learned the
"hang" of the slippery sport.
Jobs take up much of some students' time. Junior
librarians learn how to keep their places of business
quiet and orderly, while soda jerks specialize in
chocolate sundaes and friendly conversation. When
the steady hasn't called, many girls will earn "mad
money" by baby-sitting for the family next door.
With the responsibility of a job often comes the
pleasure of owning a car. The school's parking lot
testifies to the imagination of many guys with their
"bomb," while some boys and most of the girls have
borrowed Dad's more conservative "wheels."

where students gain useful knowledge for later life.
This school year, classes met for eleven months, be-
cause summer school was offered at Howe for the
first time. To fulfill the reason for our being here, this
is Thomas Carr Howe High School in classes.
Mike Dugan, Bill Gilkison, Steve Koepper, Ann Cole and
Linda Huff were this year's representatives to Hoosier Boys'
and Girls' State. During their two weeks stay at Indiana Uni-
versity, the students not only learned valuable 'information
concerning governmental procedures, but were given the op-
portunity to run for a state office.
Exceptional students gain recognition
Mr. Tobin offers congratulations to Susan Straith-Miller, na-
tional winner of the NCTE Award which is presented to students
who have attained outstanding achievement in English.
Vying for top honors in the class of '62, seniors Steve Koepper,
Andrea Tempelmyer, and Allen Hatcher have found that hard
work has been profitable in their years at Howe.
in
Five Howe seniors, Terry Cooper, Allen Hatcher, Bill Hoff, Jim
McClure and Larry Sachs, have qualified as semifmalists for
Merit Scholarships. They are among 10,000 national top-
scoring students on the National Merit Scholarship Qualifying
Test. Their names were went to accredited colleges and univer-
sities for recommendation for financial assistance in college.
and honors in many fields of endeavor
Special talents and outstanding scholarship and
leadership have their reward in personal satisfaction
on the part of the individual. As an added incen-
tive, however, special recognitions are accorded stu-
dents with outstanding abilities.
One of these honors is a National Merit Scholar-
ship. Five senior boys were semi-finalists this year:
Jim McClure, Terry Cooper, Bill Hoff, Larry Sachs,
and Allen Hatcher.
At the 1961 Honors Day program, Jeannie Kight-
linger and Bill Gilkison were chosen American Le-
gion Good Citizens. Alice Abbott received the Al-
trusa Club award for leadership, scholarship, citi-
zenship, and service. Similar qualities enabled
Lynda Barnes to be selected DAR good citizen.
Sponsored by the American Legion, Mike Dugan
and Steve Koepper attended Hoosier Boys' State at
I.U. last summer.
Those who are willing to work hard have a suc-
cessful student life and become leaders in society.
Bill Gilkison and Jeannie Kightlinger, American Legion Good
Citizens; Alice Abbot, Altrusa Award winner; and Lynda
Barnes, DAR Good Citizen, were honored by civic clubs.

Lab experiments,
Sophomores show off their talents as real "cut-ups." Talents
in dissecting and other fall biology subjects are revealed for
visitors during Howe's open house.
TOP — With the current threat of radioactive fallout in mind,
Mike Weaver and Pat Overmyer, in physics lab, measure the
presence of radiation in a compound by using a Geiger
counter. LEFT — In the physics lab, Bill Gilkison sets up a
block and tackle to demonstrate a simple machine. Experiments
help the student understand scientific principles.
12
research increase interest in science
Facing the challenge and race for outer space,
the United States government has stressed the
immediate need for highly educated technologists
and scientists, who will lead the American people
into the unknown. Realization that the use and appli-
cation of science principles has become increasingly
important, has enlarged the science requirement for
graduation to two years of a laboratory science.
Both freshman and senior physical science pro-
vide a general background for Howe students. How-
ever, in order to fulfill the science requirement, one
may choose from such specialized courses as biology,
chemistry, and physics. Extra projects in such courses
often result in scholarships and awards for students
at regional and state contests. Class and laboratory
work combine to teach the students both the practi-
cal and experimental aspects of science.
Tanya Fisher rushes through the frantic last minute details
of getting her insect collection ready to hand in. Like many
sophomores, Tanya was relieved when the ordeal was over.
After setting up this experiment and observing its results,
Ruth Ann Tedrowe completes her lab report concerning the
process of the distillation of water. This experiment consists
of evaporation followed by condensation of the vapors in a
separate vessel. For the first time, the chemistry classes are
dealing with experimental and laboratory work.

Future business men and women practice
Working on a filing problem, Sharon Davis, Kay McGilliard,
Judy Ling, and Lorraine Day complete a job answer sheet
which was to be filled out and handed in at the end of the
fourth period.
Sandy Bourne, Karen Haschild, Judy DeLashmit, and Connie
Henry, strive for a high grade in Shorthand, as they take
dictation for five minutes at a rate of 110 words per minute.
Striving for both speed and accuracy at the exploration and
control levels, these students type a conditioning practice ex-
ercise at the beginning of their Typing I class every day. As
they advance, the students' week is made up of timed writ-
ings, tabulating problems, manuscript work, and letter forms.
This experience is valuable in the business field and college.
14
skills for tomorrow
The Business Education Department at Howe of-
fers prospective secretaries, bookkeepers, and other
business majors a large array of courses to take.
Many Howeites find typing to be a valuable course
to take because it helps speed up homework. Nu-
merous girls find that shorthand comes in handy
when it comes to taking notes in class.
Members of the Business Education Department
and other interested Howe students have an oppor-
tunity to enter the NOMA Spelling Contest. A list
of one hundred words must be spelled correctly. If
they succeed in spelling all of them correctly, they
receive a certificate.
The Business Managers play an important role in
the business and financial life at Howe. Under the
sponsorship of Mr. John Trinkle the business man-
agers take care of advertising for extra curricular
activities such as plays and athletic events. Taking
care of the financial records for all events they
manage is another job of the Business Managers.
Seniors receive a medal for service.

While computing the answer to an assigned problem, this
machine calculation class learns the details in adding, sub-
tracting, multiplying, and dividing by the use of a comptome-
ter. For those students not planning to enter college upon
graduation, experience in operating these machines proves to
be valuable in preparing them for future office work.
Eleven math courses offered to pupils
In his geometry class Mr. Rehm shows three students, Bill Goines,
Christine Whitmore, and Peggy Barnes, the details in erecting
a perpendicular from a given point on the line AB.
The mathematics department at Howe is one of
the finest in any of the state's high schools. Having
the advantage of many excellent teachers, a stu-
dent is able to obtain the math needed for daily
living or for the challenges of college.
A freshman enrolls in either algebra or general
math. After a year of fundamentals and factoring,
the algebra student takes up the angles, polygons,
and circles of geometry. Following days of work
and error, the proof of the Pythagorean Theo-
rem is completed. The college-bound student is of-
fered eleven semesters of study to prepare him for
higher-level work. Trigonometry, college algebra,
and calculus, top the list. What calculus student does
not remember the proofs that are "evident to any-
one who can read." This effort now pays great divi-
dends later.
Some of the eager students who gain pleasure
from working mathematical problems compete in the
regional and state contests. Howe is always strongly
represented in this competition, and the Howeites
capture their share of the awards.

Although push-ups are often seen as a form of initiation or
punishment, they are used for a beneficial purpose in physical
education classes. Jim Dirks demonstrates the proper position.

Vicki Shook demonstrates the correct serving procedure, as
Charlene Beck and Helen Price enjoy a delicious dessert
which was prepared as a project in food preparation class.
c courses offer practical skill
Home economics offers elective courses which
teach that the way to a man's heart is through his
stomach. From the kitchen come tempting aromas
which fill the lower floor. Foods students learn to
make desserts and salads and then advance to com-
plete meals. They serve a full-course meal to mem-
bers of the faculty, and at Christmastime the girls
give a party for their little brothers and sisters.
Future seamstresses are well-prepared at Howe,
too. The girls often make their own clothes.
Also included in the department are home man-
agement and home nursing courses. Basic principles
of first aid are taught in the nursing classes.
The Junior Red Cross Club works closely with the
home ec. department as the members pack boxes to
be sent to needy people overseas. A pin is awarded
to girls who have given twenty-five hours of service.
Busy homemakers of tomorrow receive practical
experience in the home economics department.
As they begin a project in their double period clothing class,
Joan Wild and Carole Tuschhoff measure the width of a
piece of material as Jane Wild and Vicki Vest pin the pattern.

Many desirable and useful items for the home are made by
the boys in wood shop classes. Rick Newman squares a
board as he adds the finishing touches to his second project.
Mike Morris drills stock as he prepares to make a hand tool
in metal shop. This course is one of many electives which of-
fer knowledge and skill to be carried over into the future.
and knowledge for careers and future
While the aroma of delectable food arises from
the home economics classes in the lower corridor,
a much different odor, that of sawdust and oil,
comes from the industrial arts classes in the south-
east wing of the building.
A course in one of the industrial arts gives boys
the opportunity to practice skills that may one day
become a part of their lives. The boys learn the
fundamentals of such trades as printing, carpentry,
metal work, and draftsmanship. They may elect ma-
chine, architectural, or airplane drawing after they
have completed a basic course in mechanical draw-
ing. Hand tools, bookcases, and hi-fi cabinets are
just a few of the many articles produced by the boys
in wood and metal shop.
Almost all of Howe's printing needs, ir^'uding
tickets, programs, and forms for classes and special
events, are provided by the boys in print shop.
Printers Ralph Kent and Tom Warren lock a form of type
ready for the press. Print shop classes have produced every-
thing from bookmarks to dance tickets to official forms.

Art enables gifted students to express their creativity in such
assignments as was given by Mrs. DeWaard. Here, the students
are working on original tree and landscape designs. These
Howeites and others in the various art courses are often called
upon to provide posters and large banners for the purpose of
advertising coming Howe events.
Fine arts classes provide creativity,
Art offers talented students the opportunity to ex-
press their ideas or feelings on paper, canvas, or in
raw materials. The many courses which constitute the
art department provide much more than a chance to
pick up an extra credit. They offer students valuable
knowledge and skill which may be put to use in future
work or in the home.
After an introductory course of craft arts, Howeites
may elect a course dealing with a specific branch of
art study. Those who like to create objects from raw
material with their hands may choose such classes as
jewelry, plastics, or sculpturing.
Further chances for creativity come with work in
crayon, paints, or ink on paper or canvas. Letter-
ing classes plan and execute posters, banners, certif-
icates, etc. Much of their work is evident in the halls
of Howe. Commercial art often serves as prepara-
tion for a career in the field of advertising.
Display cases by the main entrance exhibit sam-
ples of student work in oil and other media,- on the
lower floor, a showcase displays the work of jewelry
and sculpture classes. Talents of the students in the
art department are evident in the number of Scho-
lastic Art Awards which they win.
Julie Michael uses a magazine in order to get an idea of an
up-to-date style for her drawing. The fashions class, a more
specific art course, is chosen by students talented in this field.

Attractive and ornamental pieces of finery are made by
hand from raw materials in jewelry class. Lois Lynch prepares
to polish her project as one of the final steps in completing it.

Sally Stafford refuses to listen as Susie Oswalt and Bill Aronis
attempt to persuade her to vote for their party.
Clerk Marcia Townsend calls the roll of the representative cities

records the information for attendance purposes.
Elections, stocks, and current events
Victorious candidates, Mike Dugan, Lynda Barnes, and Bill Gil-
kison, congratulate each other on capturing the offices of
Governor, Sec. of State, and Lt. Governor, respectively.
"And if I'm elected, I promise to have a new
football stadium built here on the Howe campus,"
shouts a hopeful candidate in the annual Howe
Mock Elections. The Social Studies Department spon-
sors the thrilling event for those enrolled in govern-
ment and economics classes. The purpose is to in-
crease Howe students' knowledge of election funda-
mentals. The four week unit covers local, county,
and state procedures.
After a state chairman has been selected for
each party, the Nationalists and Federalists begin
holding caucuses and making colorful posters. A
number of people seeking to get the party nomina-
tion apply for an office. At an exciting convention,
the candidates are carefully selected; then begins
the wild campaigning. Rallies are held in the halls
before school with rousing speeches and blaring
bands. Loyal party members wear unique badges
as the one week campaign period nears its com-
pletion. When the returns are counted, the newly
elected office holders know that the weeks of worry
and skipping homework were not in vain. They had
certainly profited from their political experiences.

Wall Street Journal for the closing prices on her stocks.
add interest to Social Studies units
"What was the purpose of the pyramids built by
the ancient Egyptians?" "What is the present high
stock on the market?" These questions and even
more varied ones were asked every day in different
classes of Howe's social studies department. While
government classes studied how a bill is passed in
Congress, economics classes invested imaginary
money in stocks and bonds on Wall Street, and U.S.
history students relived the Civil War on its centen-
nial anniversary. Students of psychology, sociolo-
gy, commercial geography, Latin American history,
international relations, and world history made up
the remainder of the history department.
Howe history classes participate each year in the
"Junior Town Meeting," a radio broadcast by stu-
dents of Indianapolis high schools. This year, U.S.
history students of Mr. Phillip Brown discussed the
pros and cons of government aid to private and
parochial schools broadcast was over WIBC radio.
During a study of the War of the Rebellion, Mr. Vencel points
out an important battle area to two of his students, Virginia
Richardson and Robert Rhoades in their U.S. History I class.

A group of dignified and disciplined young men
are enrolled in Howe's military program for the pur-
pose of preparing themselves for their term in the
armed forces after graduation.
In order to earn money for their annual Military
Ball, the cadet corps have worked at after-game
dances and have sponsored a few of these dances
themselves. They have also helped with the decora-
tions at various school-sponsored dances.
The six R.O.T.C. sponsors are chosen on the basis
of scholastic standings and on a theme which they are
required to write. The girls are then screened by a
faculty committee, voted on by the student body, and
chosen by the cadets.
The Boys' Rifle Team, an honor group having won
nearly every award offered in this area for the last
three years, is under the direction of 1st Lt. Steve
Edwards. The Girls' Rifle Team, sponsored by Miss
Dorotha Kirk, is one of the few of its kind in the
county. Weekly meeting of both teams are aimed at
improving individual scores and preparing members
for competition with other schools.
The top brass of Howe's R.O.T.C. staff watch as four members
of the battle group, in their shining helmets and white gloves,
parade the colors at the annual Federal Inspection in May.

Although Howeites often spend time decorating theme tablets
and writing notes in study hall, this period often means that
one book less will have to be carried home in the evenings.
Diane Robinson, sophomore, and Nancy Watson, freshman,
receive advice from Miss Maryon Welch about planning their
schedules to include both required and elective courses.
Counseling proves helpful to students
Study plays a large role in the life of a Howeite.
Late hours spent on books often cause red eyes the
next morning. Much homework and cramming for
tests is done in study hall. Each student is required
to have a study hall as a part of his program, and
the time he spends in study hall is well-spent, al-
though not always in study. We will never forget
the joker who puts paper in the electric fan, or the
inevitable character whose snores are interrupted
only by a trip to the dean's office.
Choosing our studies is often a dilemma, and the
guidance of our teachers and counselors is very
helpful. English students know well the "composition
conference." These twenty-minute sessions between
pupil and teacher are held once a semester and are
established so that teachers can evaluate with their
students their work and offer suggestions for im-
provement. Many language and math teachers have
set up "help sessions" for those who are behind.
Library passes are issued to those wishing to do
research for term papers or reports, who come from
study halls to use the library facilities.
Carla Pursley, one of Howe's student librarians, checks out a
book for Shirley Cobb. Student librarians work during their
library practice period, learning "the tricks of the trade."

Carol Oslos receives help on her daily Latin translation from
Jane Brown and Bob Stevens. This method of learning is often

Spanish is becoming a popular course with the students.
A minor in foreign language, English

During French lab, students listen to tape recordings and records
in order to improve their pronunciation and comprehension of
the language. The lab has proved to be very useful.
The need for interpreters and translators in the
field of foreign relations has become increasingly
important in solving international problems during
the last few years. As a result, the study of foreign
languages has become more popular. French, Span-
ish, and Latin, as well as a course in Greek and Latin
Derivatives are the courses offered by Howe's for-
eign language department.
The relatively new language lab has added to the
extensiveness of the language program. The twenty-
eight booth lab with a teacher console unit enables
students to improve their pronunciation and compre-
hension of a language with the aid of recordings
without disturbing class functions.
To enhance student interest, other devices such as
films, slides, demonstrations, reports, and supple-
mentary materials are used. French and Spanish pu-
pils learn additional material from speakers who
come from the lands where their languages origi-
nated. In addition to everyday class work, language
students often participate in regional and state con-
tests, receiving honors for their achievements.

An eye for correct grammar is necessary for potential copy-
readers. English VJ students Virginia Georgia, Tom Gilkison
and Pat Harrell gain experience by copyreading galleys.
Mr. Tobin, in one of his more familiar poses, listens to one
of his English VIII students describe the symbolism shown in
the book "1984." This class is a college preparatory course.
I-VIII necessary for academic diploma
Special projects, as well as the required literature
and grammar study contribute to pupil development
in English. A research paper in English III acquaints
Howeites with the basic rules of writing a bibliogra-
phy and the correct method of foot-noting, impor-
tant to college aspirants. In English V, students
write vocational essays, which aid in the selection of
a career. In an elected fourth year of English, sen-
iors gain further insight into English literature and
grammar. Each semester "G" classes are offered,
giving students a chance for further study and out-
side activities. Through these comprehensive courses,
English students have earned top honors in local and
national contests.
The department also offers two fine elective
courses, public speaking and library practice. A
semester of reading lab is required of all Howeites.
This non-credit course increases both the reading
ability and the comprehension of the student.

Working his way through stacks of books, magazines and
pamphlets, Dean Bolden adds the finishing touches to his Eng-
lish VII term paper in order to meet an approaching deadline.

Second year of exchange program takes
During his stay at Howe, Mr. Pike has taken part in many
activities. Here he enjoys the action of the Senior-Faculty bas-
ketball game in which he was a candidate for faculty king.
This year was the second year of Howe's partici-
pation in the Exchange Teacher Program, in which an
instructor from Howe takes the place of a British in-
structor and vice versa for one year. This year, Mr.
Kenneth Pike, from Southampton, England, ex-
changed positions with Howe's Mr. Frank Tout.
A graduate of London University, Mr. Pike taught
English and coached rugby at King Edward VI School
in Southampton. After crossing the Atlantic in mid-
August and meeting Mr. Tout in New York, Mr. Pike
toured the U. S. before coming to Indianapolis.
Before going to Southampton and during vacations
from classes, Mr. Tout also did his share of traveling
by visiting nearly every country in Europe. By doing
this, he put about 10,000 miles on his newly-pur-
chased Volkswagon bought in England.
Both teachers agree that courses are stricter in the
U. S. than in England, but both agree that the pro-
gram has achieved its purpose — to better the un-
derstanding between peoples of the world.
Since arriving in the United States, Mr. Pike has traveled
10,000 miles in his foreign Austin-Minister car. The emblem on
his car shows that he belongs to the Auto Association which is
similar to our AAA. Mr. Pike remarked that the license plate
of an English car is used for the entire life of the car. Com-
ments are constantly made about his right-hand drive car.

musical competition and concert work
Howe's musicians had a year full of honors and
glory as they shone at the top of competitions all
over the state. The band and orchestra performed
expertly at the State Band and Orchestra Contest
in May. Soloists and small ensembles rated almost a
perfect "first" record at the regional and state Solo
and Ensemble Contests. Howe sent a larger number
of players to the All-City Symphony and Band than
did any other school.
The Madrigals, singing melodies a cappella in old
English style and harmony, met many engagements
during their busy year. Besides their regular sched-
ule of meetings and programs, the group also sang
for a radio program in the fall.
Basketball games were enlivened by the Pep
Band with their jazz, pep, and school songs. Mem-
bers of the concert band volunteered their time for
the Pep Band.
Boosters of the Howe basketball team enjoyed the rousing
music of the Pep Band, composed of members of the concert
band, who played regularly at home basketball games.

lar sounds of student laughter and talk as musically
inclined Howeites intently study composers and per-
form with amateur perfection their compositions. The
department includes the Howe Choir, Choralaires,
boys' and girls' octets, glee clubs, orchestra, pep
band and Madrigals.
Members of the Choralaires, the girls' singing or-
ganization under the direction of Mr. Frank Wat-
kins, filled the halls with singing during the fourth
period as they rehearsed for their many perform-
ances during the year. Performances included the
annual Christmas Sing, the May Pageant, and the
May Music Festival.
The boys' octet consisted of boys selected from
the choir and an accompanist. They sang several
varieties of tunes, ranging from popular songs to ar-
rangements of classical melodies, but they special-
ized in singing semi-classical music. The octet sang
for P.T.A. meetings, assemblies, church activities,
and various other functions over the city.

Choralaires, Choir, and Octets
During the first hour of every school morning, the
east wing rings with the music of the school choir.
Directed by Frank S. Watkins, the organization, the
most advanced vocal group in the school, performs
for various- functions. Within our own walls, the choir
has sung for the PTA and student assemblies at their
respective meetings. Their voices were heard at
Open House, the May Pageant, and at the spring
Music Festival. The choir journeyed to several neigh-
borhood churches, and was also heard at the Irving-
ton Chain of Missions program. Radio WIBC recorded
the choir for their program, "Young America Sings."
The choir was last heard as they pronounced the
benediction at Commencement.
The Girls' Octet, harmonious as it is attractive, is
composed of eight of the best feminine voices in the
school. They give nearly fifty programs a year for
civic and church groups, conventions and radio
broadcasts. "Pop" Watkins also directs this group.

P.R.R. Hollywooders bring weathermen,
Along with endless rehearsals came long hours of instructions
from act chairmen and faculty sponsors. Here, act members
go over a part in the act with chairman Vicky Kemper.
Each year Howe students turn into budding Holly-
wood citizens as they write, direct, and act in the
annual Pleasant Run Revue, Howe's musical variety
show consisting of four major acts and several be-
tween acts. Work begins in September with costum-
ing, scenery designing and production, and rehears-
als. Finally, in November, two performances are
given of the big show.
The acts chosen this year were varied as well as
entertaining. "Capricious Cards," the antics of the
King and Queen of Hearts and their court during a
poker game, was written by Vicky Kemper and
Jeannie Kightlinger. "The Magic Toyshop," by Nancy
Carroll and Cindy McMillan, told the story of an
enchanting toyshop opened and brought to life for
a little girl by her fairy godmother. Sherri Bell and
Nancy Bowman assigned a special type of weather
to each part of the world in the act "Weather
Around the World." In "Gadabout Greetings," by
Jo Pheasant and Lissa Purdy, greeting cards for
various occasions came to life for a little girl.
Denny Wickes sang "I'm Just a Poor, Wayfaring Stranger,"
an old American folk song, as a scenery change act. The
royal court waited in attendance as Barb Zumwalt and Ron
West, King and Queen of Hearts, opened court in "Capricious
Cards." Joellen Wagner and John Stevenson played parents
of a "lovely" child on a card in "Gadabout Greetings."
toy shop, cards, royal court to Howe
Nurse Nancy Stewart persuaded her patient, Bob Bruner, to
get rid of his wheel chair and dance as they portrayed a
get-well card in "Gadabout Greetings."
Mixed-up weathermen Larry Sachs, Mike Dugan, and Mike
Bruney decided what kind of weather the world was going to
receive in "Weather Around the World."
"On With the Show, This is It!" sang the opening chorus to
introduce the 1961 Pleasant Run Revue, the musical variety
show directed and presented by Howe students and faculty
sponsors. Each year, Mr. Bruce Beck, Director of Productions,
devotes many hours toward the making of a top-notch pro-
gram. Singers are soloists John Stevenson and Joellen Wagner,
Rosemary Bassett, Sue Oswalt, Barbara Zumwalt, Lissa Purdy,
Jo Pheasant, Cassandra Kamp, and Susan Robinson.

Everyone has a birthday, and Howe is no excep-
tion. Each year in May, a birthday celebration is
held on Violet Hill in front of Howe. The ceremony
is modeled after an old English custom, the village
May Festival, and includes dancing of traditional
and foreign dances, acrobatics, and the beautiful
Maypole dance. Each year a queen is chosen by
the junior class to reign over the festivities along
with her court of junior princesses and their escorts.
Pages are Howe underclassmen and the flower girl
is usually the daughter of a Howe teacher.
This year's Philosopher, Webb Garrison, addressed
the student body, then assured Queen Rosemary
Bassett that Howeites would not disappoint her trust
in them for achievement in the coming year. The
Violet Queen then retired to her home in Violet
Hill, to return next year to view her domain and to
bring anew her challenge of achievement.
Dancers from a gym class perform the may-pole dance honor-
ing Rosemary Bassett, Howe's twenty-third Violet Queen, at
the annual May Pageant, the official birthday celebration.

Students pledge scholarship in NHS
Howe's chapter of the NATIONAL HONOR
SOCIETY, one of more than five thousand in the
country, was organized for the purpose of further-
ing scholarship, service, leadership, and character
among high school pupils. Each year, enough stu-
dents are nominated to fulfill a maximum of ten
per cent of the junior class and fifteen per cent of the
senior class in membership. All nominees and mem-
bers must maintain a 6.00 grade average. A formal
initiation service is held in December at which time
the nominees receive their cards and pins and mem-
bers renew their pledge to carry out the goals of
the Honor Society.
The NHS symbol is a keystone of learning with a
torch of knowledge and the letters C, S, L, and S, for
Character, Service, Leadership, and Scholarship.

'62 HILLTOPPER staff strives to earn
The Brown and Gold is the first and biggest fall
dance. The HILLTOPPER staff sponsors and decorates
for this dance each year. Dreamy music was provid-
ed by the Debonaires this year. The main decoration
was a garden scene. The candidates for Brown Boy
and Golden Girl walked through the garden and
onto the stage. Minutes of anticipation and excite-
ment passed before Mr. Thomas Stirling, principal,
announced the reign of Nancy Bowman and John
Leane. Other candidates were Jean Moore, Linda
Bender, Jodi Dobbs, Doug Paul, Dan Breckenridge
and Dick Woodbury.
The 1960 Turnabout Twirl, also sponsored by the
HILLTOPPER staff, is an annual spring dance. The
theme of the dance was "April in Paris." This is the
night the girls pay for the tickets, chauffeur their
dates, present them with hand-made corsages, and
treat them to a nighttime snack. Prizes were award-
ed for the corsages in differing categories.
The highlight of the Brown and Gold was the crowning of
the Brown Boy and Golden Girl. Nancy Bowman and John
Leane, both seniors, were selected to reign over the evening.

and time to serving school pupils
Student Council sponsors activities that create an
interest among the student body. This council consists
of one representative from each homeroom who
serves a one-year term. The representative may be
elected to a second term. Members of the Student
Council elect seven officers. These persons make up
the cabinet and meet with the teacher sponsors who
are Mr. Moon, Mr. Wood, and Mr. Schroder to or-
ganize the group's business. Mrs. Loew is the adviser.
The activities of the council this year have been
numerous. President Denny Wickes is also a member
of the National Traffic Safety Council. Representatives
to the City Student Council are Dick Woodbury and
Jim Thomas. Lynda Barnes attended the National
Student Council Leadership Conference. Every year
the council sponsors a clean-up campaign to keep the
students alert to the appearance of their school. It
also sponsors an annual Senior-Faculty basketball
game which is exciting and amusing for both the stu-
dent body and the faculty. The Student Council also
organizes and plans a talent assembly. This program
displays the talent which Howe has to offer.

The purpose of the Footlight Revelers Club is to
further the cause of high school dramatics by giving
students opportunities to participate in dramatic
presentations. Any student taking part in a school
production is considered a member of the club. Foot-
light Revelers is sponsored by Mr. Bruce Beck. Presi-
dent of this year's group is Joe Nelson.
This spring the Revelers presented "Henrietta The
Eighth" under the guidance and supervision of Mrs.
Hariette Baker and Mr. Beck. The comedy was writ-
ten by Mr. Gordon Kurtz. Henrietta is the eighth
secretary of the Sutton family, and the three Sutton
girls plan to use her as a private maid, but Hen-
rietta has a different idea.
Other Reveler presentations included the Pleasant
Run Revue, P.T.A. Fun Night, May Pageant, and
Christmas programs. Some members of the group
have actual roles in the presentation, while others are
on make-up, costuming, prompting, or ushering com-
mittees. Several of the members have the distinction of
belonging to the National Honorary Thespian So-
ciety. Eligibility is based on the number of points
earned for work on the club's productions.

and excitement for many boys of Howe
The two clubs for the boys of Howe are Hi-Y (juniors
and seniors), and Beta Hi-Y (freshmen and sopho-
mores). The purpose of both clubs is "to create, main-
tain and extend throughout home, school, and com-
munity high standards of Christian character."
The activities of the two clubs are similar. Both
have swimming parties during the year at the East-
side Y.M.C.A. The boys sell refreshments and check
coats at home basketball games to make money for
various projects. Hi-Y also sponsors several "after-
game" dances. One of the most exciting Hi-Y activi-
ties is the Model UN. Members of Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y
clubs in Marion County annually participate in the
Model UN, portraying the role of representatives
from various nations. Another Hi-Y activity is the
spring Sweetheart Dance. Members nominate girls as
Sweethart candidates, and final choice is made by
those attending the dance. Mr. Harry Totten is Hi-Y

Tri-Hi-Y is one of the largest and most active clubs
at Howe. Any junior or senior girl may become a
member. The activity which highlights the year's
events is the Model UN which is fashioned after the
UN in New York. Delegates from Tri-Hi-Y and Hi-Y
clubs throughout Marion County participate, por-
traying roles of representatives from foreign coun-
tries.
Tri-Hi-Y has other different activities. The club has
several swimming parties during the year at the
Eastside Y.M.C.A. Speakers bring beneficial mes-
sages to the members and add variety to the pro-
grams. New members are introduced and presented
with membership pins at an induction ceremony in
October, while new officers are elected in the
spring. Seven officers were elected this year instead
of five as in the past. The newly created positions
are that of sergeant at arms and historian. Mrs.
Hariette Baker is sponsor.
The seven officers of Tri-Hi-Y are Martha Schmidt, sergeant-
at-arms; Cynthia McMillan, vice-president; Marilyn Smith, sec-
retary; Andrea Tempelmeyer, historian; Judith Himes, treas-

Selofra is a club for freshmen girls. The club pro-
motes friendship by giving the girls an opportunity
to meet and to become acquainted with each other.
Each girl is given a green ribbon to wear to signify
she is a member of the freshman class. Selofra meets
twice a month, with programs which are varied and
interesting. Activities included in their programs are
panel discussions, parties, a mixer, and a style show.
Selofra has a mixer for 9B's in January to acquaint
the new students with their school and their class-
mates. The style show is presented annually by this
club. The girls of the club write, direct, and produce
the show. They also model clothes which they have
made or which they have in their wardrobes to show
current styles and fads. Another interesting activity
is a demonstration presented by a beauty consultant
who gives the girls hints about hair styles and gen-
eral appearance.

TOWER expands to serve Howe better in
When is the last time that your assignment was to
count the number of Exit signs, or to find the twins
and triplets attending Howe? For the staff of the
Howe Tower, unusual assignments become a routine.
As a result of increased publication this year, the
Tower is able to provide its subscribers with a wider
variety of news. This, of course, means an increase
in budget as well. Midst comparing jokes and ex-
periences, the staff creates the Howe Tower.
Staff reporters receive their assignments from
those posted on the bulletin board in Room 240.
Through interviews and research, the reporter's job
is finished and the story is copy-read. Copyreaders
make corrections in grammar, spelling, information,
and style. The story is then printed in column form.
In addition to an editor-in-chief, another editor,
known as a page editor, is appointed for each page.
With glue and scissors, the page editors attack the
yards of corrected, printed columns, pasting and
cutting the columns together to produce each page
of the Tower. Each page is printed in this form and
the final corrections are made before the paper is
printed in the form distributed to its readers. The
staff then begins its work on the next Tower issue.
Her diminutiveness proves no handicap for editor-in-chief of
the Howe Tower, Peggy McCormick, as she directs one of
numerous informal staff meetings to prepare the Tower.

Copy editor Barb Zumwalt (SEATED) checks copy for errors
despite the "help" from staff members Judi Sexton, John
Stevenson, Pat Overmyer, Margaret Surface, and Ruth Tedrowe.
Jimmy Billups and Mike Bruney compare headline type to de-
termine the right kind of stories. This year the Tower changed
its entire copy and headline type schedule for all issues.

Junior Achievers prove that business
Twelve hundred Marion County teens from 20
public and parochial high schools cooperate with
the J. A. program to organize their own businesses,
operated parallel to full-scale business firms. They
meet a night each week from October through May,
from 7-9 P.M. at the J. A. center, 835 North Merid-
ian Street.
Applications for membership are available to jun-
iors and seniors at the annual J. A. assembly every
September and through the Junior Achievement
Center.
Representatives from local businesses underwrite
the cost of the program and provide business advice.
Helping each company with its advertising and sales,
business procedures and accounting and production
are the three adult advisers assigned to each group.
In May, at the conclusion of the J. A. year, each
step of owning and operating the model business
has been completed and the companies are liqui-
dated.
Through the J. A. program, today's teens are given
an opportunity to learn business practices under a
free enterprise system. It provides a laboratory for
the practical application of their education.

Diamondmen compile winning record in
One of the mainstays of the 1961 varsity baseball team was
junior letterman Ron Yeskie. Most often a pitcher, Ron also
played outfield, and he won the Most Valuable Player Award.
When a coach puts together a city championship
team one year but loses nine players from this team,
what can he expect for the following season? Usual-
ly, the coach can't expect too much, but Hornet
coach Roscoe Pierson found this to be untrue. With
six returning lettermen, Mr. Pierson built a team
which sported an impressive ten won— three lost rec-
ord and finished third in the city.
In his last year as varsity baseball coach, Roscoe
Pierson led such baseball players as Ron Yeskie, Tim
Witsman, Jack Simpson, Jim Parsons, Jay Bishop,
and Jim Hower. Junior Ron Yeskie, most valuable
player in 1960, was the Hornet's pitching ace as he
won eight games against three losses. Yeskie was
backed up by senior Jerry Baden and by sopho-
more Mike Martin. With a batting average of almost
.350, Yeskie led all hitters and won the Most
Valuable Player Award for the second year in a
row.
The only losses of the 1961 season came at the
hands of city champion Cathedral by three runs,
city runner-up Broad Ripple by three runs, and coun-
ty champion Southport by 1 6 runs.

Catcher Jim Parsons listens on with an air of interest.
Spirit and hard work enabled the varsity baseball
team to compile a 10—3 record in Coach "Rocky"
Pierson's last year at Howe. Strong hitting, sharp
fielding, and accurate pitching helped the diamond-
men gain success.
The Best Mental Attitude Award was won by senior
letterman Jack Simpson, while the Most Improved
Player Award went to junior letterman Jay Bishop.
Selected captain by his teammates was senior letter
winner Jim Hower.
A bright future is seen for the 1962 varsity base-
season as the reserve team posted a record of eight
wins against only four losses. The reserves, coached
by Mr. Denny Krick, defeated Scecina twice but lost
to Southport, Broad Ripple, and to Manual twice.
Coached by Mr. Harrison Richardson and Mr.

The 1961 tennis team, loaded with underclassmen,
fought through a very rough schedule and posted
a 5—8 record. All five racquetmen will return next
season to form an experienced squad with great
potential. In their seventh year of competition and
last with Lyman Combs as coach, the Hornets scored
victories over Warren Central, Crispus Attucks, Ben
Davis, Scecina, and Manual. Besides these two-way
meets, Howe also participated in the Lafayette and
Columbus Tournaments and in the City Matches.
From the five outstanding players, Larry Carmi-
chael was chosen Most Valuable Player, and he re-

Varsity cindermen
Displaying unusual scoring balance, Howe's 1961
track team swept through the season with an unblem-
ished record in nine dual meets. The Hornets were
at least two deep in most positions and won several
very close contests by capturing those vital second
and third places. Unlimited desire and the will to
win were always evident, and these traits contribu-
ted most markedly to success in at least three of
the outings. In victories over Ben Davis by 57—52,
over Washington 551/2— 531/2, and over Manual
55—53, one less second place would have reversed
the decision. The spikesters again made a strong
showing in the city meet when they captured a close
fourth out of twelve competing schools. In the other
six meets, The Hornets outscored their opponents in
each by twenty-four or more points.
Howe sponsors the Hoosier Relays, a large in-door
track meet run in the Indiana University Fieldhouse.
Teams from all over the state compete in this annual
event, and 1961 was the biggest yet. Many of the
Hornet spikesters performed very well against the
state's best and brought home medals for their
efforts. Trophies, medals are given to individuals.

complete season with perfect record
The Hornets placed fifth in a total of twenty-two
schools at the Washington Track Sectional. Leading
scorers were Larry Pugh, placing in the 100 and
220 yard dashes and the 880 yard relay; Bill Har-
old, in the mile run; Dick Woodbury, in the high and
low hurdles; Don Ambler, in the pole vault; and the
remaining members of the 880 yard relay, Mike
Earley, Wes McDivifr, and Pete Henshaw. These boys
then participated in the Regional at Tech, and Bill
Harold qualified for the State by taking a third
place in the Tech Regional. With returning letter-
men at almost every position, Coach Rex Anderson
has a fine start toward the 1 962 season.
Larry Pugh earned 116 points over the season
and was chosen Most Valuable Player by his team-
mates. Larry ran both the dashes and anchored the
half mile relay team that came up with several im-
portant triumphs. Ranking high in total points scored
were Pete Henshaw, Dick Woodbury, and Bill Har-
old. The honor of being co-captains was conferred
upon Henshaw and Harold. Mike Simmons was

Reserve, Frosh boast brilliant seasons
The Hornet reserve cindermen fought through a
rugged schedule and finished with a very respecta-
ble 5—2 record. Only losses were to Scecina and
Crispus Attucks by identical narrow margins of 56—
52. Four of the five victories were by thirty points
or more while the squad defeated Washington 59—
50. Graduation left some gaps in the varsity which
these boys should capably fill next year.
In keeping with the winning tradition of the Howe
track teams, the frosh completed the season with a
sparkling 7—1 record in dual meets. A second place
finish in the City Meet and a fourth place in the
Wood Relays proved that the team could also excel
in the large meets. The Carl Spiess Award for out-
standing sportsmanship among the first-year spike-
sters was presented to Bud Bayne.

Rough going for inexperienced golfers
Three returning lettermen, Jim Birk, Dave Smartz,
and Ted Kolsky, provided the nucleus for the 1961
varsity golf squad. Characterized by inexperience
and lack of reserves, the linksmen compiled a rec-
ord of only four wins, five losses, and one tie. Par
shooters for the team were Jim Birk and Dave
Smartz. Both boys were seniors with four years of
previous experience. Birk and Smartz led the golf
team to wins over Shortridge, Sacred Heart, Manual,
and Warren Central. The tie meet was with east-
side foe, Scecina. Recipient of the Most Valuable
Player Award in 1960, Jim Birk placed high in many
meets in 1961 and received the award for the sec-
ond year in a row.
The linksmen practice daily at Pleasant Run Golf
Course to better their golf games and to bring them
"down" to par. Coached by Mr. Fred Lemley, the
golfers never gave up their determination, even
when the chips were down.
The golf team is the least publicized of the athlet-
ics at Howe. For the 1962 season, the Hornets will
have five returning lettermen. The future looks bright,
and the golfers deserve student backing.
Attentively Jim Birk watches Dave Smartz take a practice
swing while tuning up for a golf meet. Both boys were senior
letter winners and formed the nucleus for the 1961 squad.

Coach Wood, gridmen praise student body
The 1961 varsity football season was a rough one
for the players, the coach, and the student body.
A new coach, Mr. B. C. Wood, formerly assistant
football coach at Anderson College, had eight let-
termen with which to make a football team. Mr.
Wood's greatest obstacle was the big lack of size,
as he had only two boys weighing over 200 pounds.
The Hornets compiled a season record of one win,
eight losses, and one tie with the lone win coming
over past nemesis Washington, and the tie game
being played with Anderson's Madison Heights.
Despite a losing season, the gridmen displayed a
great will to win and practiced hard to improve
their record. Strong student support was prevelant
all through the season and was greatly appreciated
by the team. At the awards assembly, the squad
gave the students a standing ovation in appreciation.
With eight returning lettermen, the prospect for
the 1961 varsity football season was good. But de-
feat met the Hornets at the start. In the first game,
with Tech, Howe was smashed by a score of 38—0.
Four times during the season, the gridmen were held
scoreless, and also four times they were held to only
six points.
The one-win, eight-loss, one-tie season was not
completely glum. Bright spots came in the Nobles-
ville, Madison Heights, and Washington games.
Against Noblesville, down 27—0, the Hornets staged
a fourth quarter in which they scored three touch-
downs to pull the final score up to 27—20. At An-
derson, Wood's men battled Madison Heights to a
6—6 tie with halfback Tom Tiedemann scoring the
Howe TD. A 38—27 victory was registered over
Washington, a big problem in the past.

Recipient of the Most Valuable Player Award was
junior fullback Dick Woodbury. Dick was the lead-
ing ground gainer and general workhorse of the
team. The Best Mental Attitude Award went to sen-
ior Bob Espich. Tri-captains were selected by the
team. They were seniors John Leane, Bob Espich,
and Steve Hooper. Other standouts on the team
were halfbacks Tom Tiedemann and Charlie Bech-
tel and linemen Larry Johnson and Paul Pusey.
First year reserve football coach, Mr. Kenneth
Long, an alumnus of Broad Ripple High School, led
his reserve team to a two-win, five-loss record. The
Brown and Gold reserves chalked up wins over
Scecina and Warren Central.
Coaching the freshman team was 1960 reserve

rugged season defeating only Scecina. The Hornets
posted a season record of one win and five losses.

Senior runners lead as harriers gain
Six senior harriers composed the nucleus of Howe's
1961 varsity cross-country team. Led by Bill Harold
and Larry Sachs, the team dropped only one dual
and one tri-way meet against some of the state's
toughest competition. These losses came from state
champ Ben Davis and city champ Manual by one
point. The Hornets opened the season with a hard-
fought victory over Washington and a romp over
Lawrence. Following the second place behind Ben
Davis and ahead of North Central in the tri-way
meet, the distance men rolled off three straight wins
before the loss to Manual in the season finale.
This year was the twenty-first running of the
annual Howe Invitational, and in it the home team
took a respectable fifth out of fifteen teams. With
John Wiggins sparking the improved team effort,
the Hornets placed well in the Shortridge Invitational
and City and Sectional meets. Bill Harold received
the Most Valuable Player award for the second
year in a row, and Sachs was elected Captain.
A promising reserve team posted a record of 5
and 1 with a third place in the City. The frosh had
a 1 and 2 record, finishing fourth in the City.

Experience is key
Experience is a vital factor in a basketball team,
and in the 1961-62 varsity basketball season, Coach
James Stutz had no lack of it. With seven lettermen
returning from last year's three-win-seventeen-loss
team, Mr. Stutz built a team which racked up the
most successful Hornet basketball record in five long
years. The 11 — 11 record equals the record posted
by the 1 957 Howe five.
The Hornets were led by junior forward Jim Ru-
bush who maintained a 14-point average over the
season, Dave Nichoalds, 6'6" senior center, and
senior forward Steve Hooper. Rounding out the first
six players were junior Jay Wise, Denny Barrett, and
Dan Breckenridge. The Hornets possessed
size, speed, rebounding strength, and accurate
shooting eyes. Above all the netmen had a strong de-
sire to win.
The varsity netters had a strong attraction for
their home floor in the 1961-62 season. Losing their
first two home games, the Hornets came back to win
their next seven straight home games. Home losses
were to Washington and North Central.
Next year's outlook is bright as there will be
seven returning lettermen from this year's squad.

Howe's varsity basketball team played one of the
toughest schedules in the state. A .500 record is an
accomplishment with such a schedule. The Hornets
played four teams which were eventual sectional
winners and the teams which were city and county
champs.
Starting the season with a loss, the Hornets won
their second game in two overtimes. Then the Brown
and Gold upset highly touted Broad Ripple by 1 1
points. A second upset came about when they
dropped Columbus, rated in the state's top 20
teams at that time.
In the city tournament, Howe defeated Arling-
ton, but dropped its second contest to Crispus At-
tucks in a hard-fought game.
At the Southport Sectional Tourney, the netmen
handled Mount Comfort with ease for a 47-point
win. However, the Hornets lost their second game
by a 22-point margin to Franklin Central's Flashes.

Mr. Roger Schroder, the freshman basketball team compiled
a record of seven wins and ten losses. Each Fall around 150
boys tryout for frosh basketball but only 25 boys can be kept
for the team. There are two teams — the first, or "A," team
consisting of 15 boys and the second, or "B," team which has
10 players. At any time during the season, boys may go up
to the "A" team or down to the "B" team as the case may be.
Several awards were given to basketball players.
Among those were the Most Valuable Player Award,
which went to Jim Rubush, and the Best Mental Atti-
tude Award, won by Dan Breckenridge. Steve Hooper
was named varsity team captain. Tom Ott and Chuck
Mundy received awards for the best free-throw
shooting percentages on the frosh and reserve teams.
Mr. Steve Vencel's reserve team compiled a record
of 15 wins and 7 losses in the 1961-62 season. The
Hornets also came in second in the city tournament,
defeating Arlington, Attucks, and Wood, but losing
to champion Tech, 64—45. The reserves defeated Ar-
lington and Attucks twice but lost twice to Tech.
The freshman basketball team, coached by Mr.

Cheerleaders enliven sports events by
Whenever Howeites attend Howe football and
basketball games, they see a group of six girls dedi-
cated to the job of building school spirit and putting
spark into spectators at these events. These six girls
are the cheerleaders who brave cold, damp weather
and the thought of possible defeat to provide the
enthusiasm which drives our team to victory. Under
the direction of Miss Janice Brown, the cheerleaders
spend many evenings after school practicing numer-
ous yells, songs, and routines. They work hard until
every move they make is in unison.
Each year tryouts are held for cheerleaders, and
each girl has to prepare and present her own rou-
tine as a test of her creativity and leadership.
In addition to leading cheers at the games, the
cheerleaders organize and lead the cheerblock,
plan and direct all pep assemblies, and make post-
ers and give speeches to boost school spirit.
Returning from last year's cheer squad is Pam
Butler. Others are Louellen Park, Donna Prell, Mary
B. Robertson, Marcia Townsend, and Carol Weaver.

As the basketball game hectically continues, varsity cheer-
leader Marcia Townsend calmly watches from the sideline.
The cheerleaders work hard to put spirit into athletic events.
Leading cheers at reserve football and basketball games was
the job of reserve cheerleaders Pat Harrell, Diane Crossland,
Judy Mishler, and Jodi Dobbs. Mary Jordan is not pictured.
Freshman cheerleaders for the 1961-62 basketball season
were Nancy Brooks, Nancy Watson, Connie Harrell, Diane
Corbin, and Janice Townsend. Not pictured in Linda Andress.

building enthusiasm and school spirit
A love of athletics, a loud voice and strong lungs, and femi-
ninity are the only requirements for membership in the Howe
girls' cheerblock. Girls from all four classes, dressed in capes
and gloves made by the P.T.A., back their team on to victory.
The athletic teams supported by the block appreciate the
strong backing, especially when they are losing.
Yelling their hearts out at all varsity football and basketball
games, varsity cheerleaders Carol Weaver, Donna Prell,
Mary B. Robertson, Marcia Townsend, Louellen Park, and Pam
Butler put spirit into the fans to push their team onto vic-
tory. The girls work hard to support our teams whether win-
ning or losing and practice hard after school during the year.

Determined grapplers show improvement
Practice, diet, sleep is the continual work-out for
many members of the wrestling team. Some boys
spend as much as three hours a day practicing in
order to stay in condition. Although the team was
lacking in experience, the grapplers compensated
with determination. As the points began to add in
their favor, the Hornets defeated Arlington and
Tech near the end of the season.
Steve Guidone was the Most Valuable Player on
the varsity squad. He was the city champion and
placed third in the state. On his overall season rec-
ord, Steve won 24 matches while losing only two.
Dan Diersing had a fine season average winning
13 of 20 pairings and placing third in the city.
In the reserve city meet Stan Bradley copped a
first place. The freshman team also had its city
champions as Bill Dobson and Bill Greaver placed
first in their weight classes. The freshman team fin-
ished with a 2 and 8 season record while 3 and 1 1
was the reserve slate. Many of these boys will be
needed to fill the ranks of varsity next year.

Trainer Mr. Rehm demonstrates to athletic managers Bob
Bruner, Dan Murphy, Carlos Depositor and Jerry Carter the
technique of operating equipment for treating injuries.
Miles of tape and pounds of vaseline are used each year to
keep the players going full speed. Taping ankles and legs
is one of Mr. Rehm's specialties which he demonstrates.
Managers work unseen to support teams
Behind every winning team there's a good coach,
a good trainer, and good athletic managers. Howe
is very fortunate in all of these categories. Several
students volunteer for manager positions,- and if they
are chosen, a great amount of work lies ahead.
Distributing uniforms, keeping equipment in good
order, and caring for slight injuries are all part of
the managers' work. Each day they are asked if
they will tape up an ankle or open the towel room.
Mr. Justin Rehm is the trainer, and he assigns var-
ious duties to the boys. They must not only attend
all of the games but also each of the practices and
scrimmages. The manages devote as much or more
time to the team as do the players.
The squad of athletic managers included Bob Bru-
ner, varsity manager and in charge of the equip-
ment room,- Dan Murphy, reserve manager,- and
Mike Nation, recorder of statistics. Jerry Carter
worked in the training room, and Ric Bartlett was
the freshman basketball manager. Carlos Depositor
and Dennis Durham helped with the wrestling teams.
Bob Rumbaugh and Tom Tiedemann receive their running
equipment from Bob Bruner while others wait their turn. Hand-
ling equipment is one of the managers' most important duties.
Intramurals provide activities for a
Intramurals offer the opportunity for many boys
to participate in inter-school sports when they might
not otherwise have the chance due to lack of ability
or time. Contests are supervised by faculty sponsors,
but the boys manage many of their own details. A
junior-senior league and a freshman-sophomore
league were set up to provide more equal competi-
tion between classes.
Cross-country at the intramural level is in its sec-
ond year at Howe. Many boys take part in order to
get in condition for coming winter sports. At the
end of the season, the runners are awarded medals
based on their performances in the scheduled meets
and the number of practices attended.
The most popular intramural sport is basketball.
Over two hundred energetic players participated
this year. The junior-senior league play was high-
lighted by the addition of a faculty team which was
preparing for its annuel battle with the seniors. The
season is ended by an elimination tournament, and
the victorious teams gain the league championships.
In this jump-ball situation the "skin" team seems about to con-
trol the tip against the efforts of the "shirts." Play is always
spirited and aggressive in intramural games.
Eight players scramble for positions under the backboard as
they prepare to battle for the rebound if the shot fails. Many
exciting moments pack the games until the end.

Members of Letter man's Club and G.A.A.
Barbara Rhodes demonstrates one of the many different stunts
that the girls perform on the horse. G.A.A. gives its members
an opportunity to try many activities and new athletic stunts.
The Girls' Athletic Association is one of the oldest
clubs still active at Howe. The club is open to any
girl who is interested in enjoying a wide variety of
activities. The aim of the organization is to encour-
age good sportsmanship and to promote companion-
ship among the girls.
Members of the G.A.A. participate in volleyball,
bowling, archery, and swimming under the direction
of Miss Johanne Guenter. In December the girls join
with the Lettermen's Club to sponsor the Winter
Wonderland Dance. The members take care of
decorations and arrangements for the dance band.
"Keep your eye on that basket" thinks Sue Stafford as she
lets the basketball fly for two points. Many girls have become
very adept in basketball — a sport not for the boys only.
The 1961 Winter Wonderland Dance is enjoyed by many
Howeites, both "stag and drag." This annual dance com-
pletes the school activities before the Christmas vacation.

gain entertainment, provide services
Winter Wonderland King candidates are Jim Madrill, Jim
Binney, Dick Corley, Bob Espich, Joe Nelson, Dick Woodbury,
Ward Poulous, and Brent Anderson. Joe Nelson was king.
Lettermen's Club is designed for boys interested
in all fields of athletics. In order to be eligible for
membership, one must have received a .varsity let-
ter,- and participation in the club activities retains
this membership. Basketball, swimming, and bowling
are the most popular group sports in which the
members engage.
Under the direction of sponsor Mr. Sam Kelley
and President Jay Bishop, the Lettermen's Club is
fast becoming Howe's outstanding service club.
Members aid the school by parking cars at athletic
events and by ushering at basketball games and
many other school functions.
The Lettermen's Club and G.A.A. are co-sponsors
of the Winter Wonderland Dance. This dance has
become the highlight of the school's Christmas sea-
son. The boys' part in the dance affairs consist of
publicity, ticket sales, and after-dance clean-up.

This is THOMAS CARR HOWE
High School 1 962
With People . .
where are found the faculty, dignified administra-
tors with down-to-earth personalities; seniors, proud,
yet apprehensive of the future,- juniors, working for
seniorhood; sophomores, frowning on the frosh, who
display enthusiasm coveted by their elders. This is
Thomas Carr Howe High School with people.
Educational responsibilities to each
What keeps Howe buzzing? Of course the answer
is the faculty! Mr. Thomas Stirling and his able staff
work in many areas to improve themselves for their
jobs, and to improve the school.
Teachers, as well as pupils, give their free time to
Howe clubs and productions for each school activity
is sponsored by a faculty member.
Besides instructing and assisting the student body
of Howe, the teachers spend many hours in work-
shops and special classes learning how to better per-
form their teaching duties. Many teachers spend their
vacations working on advanced degrees.
Unusual hobbies fill the informal lives of Howe's
staff. Mr. Briggs is a department store Santa Claus.
Mr. Beck is an accomplished pianist. "Pop" Watkins
and Mr. Fleck help their churches by directing choirs.
Mr. Carr "spelunks" during his vacations, and Mr.
Stirling uses his artistic talents to paint in water color.
Mr. Pike and Mr. Long indulge themselves in long
games of chess. Mr. Ruschhaupt raises dogs and
horses. Mr. Tobin won second place in the "Best
Built Man in Indiana" Contest. He lifts weights as a
hobby. Mrs. DeWaard collects shells and has a large,
unusual collection. She also has decorated the in-
terior of her home by hand painting her walls with
designs. Mr. Carlson enters recipe contests and wins!
Mr. Kenneth Pike, the school's second English teacher on the
exchange program, spends much of his free time talking with
Mr. Stirling and other teachers about his trip to America.

Yes, the checks have arrived! This is perhaps one of the most
welcome of all sights the teachers see. Mr. Denny Krick won-
ders who has hidden his check while Mrs. Genrich looks for it.
Each teacher looks forward to his lunch period as much as each
of the pupils. This forty-five minutes gives the teachers a chance
to enjoy good food and catch up on the latest gab.
Once a month the department heads have a meeting in which
they discuss curriculum and administrative problems. The deci-
sions are relayed to other teachers at department meetings.

Can a small-town college girl find happiness
among the scrambling subways, booming business,
persistent playboys, and soaring skyscrapers of New
York City? This year's senior play, "Ask Any Girl,"
provided a fun-filled account of young Meg Wheel-
er's sojourn in the big city. Feeling restrained in the
search for a suitable marriage partner in her home-
town, Meg ventures to New York with her parents and
two elderly aunts, who approve the Madison Avenue
Girls' Hotel as Meg's residence.
While taking part in a survey, Miss Wheeler meets
sophisticated Miles Doughton. Meg's attention soon
is lavished on Miles' brother Evan, whom she decides
is the "perfect mate." Her conniving tricks to win
Evan lend to the mirth of the play.
Woven into the plot of the leading couple's ro-
mance is another love affair, that of Meg's room-
mate Jeannie and her suitor Alvin. Other hotel in-
habitants and employees of Doughton & Doughton
combined to present an outstanding performance.
Meg's confidence in Evan's love causes her to become greatly
alarmed when Evan enters the lobby of Madison Avenue Girls'
Hotel with flirtatious Lisa snuggling at his side.
A slightly-too-plump Jeannie tries nonchalantly to avoid the
wooing of Alvin, a shipping clerk turned executive. The ta-
bles turn when Jeannie accepts his marriage proposal.

Huff, Jim McClure, Barbara Rhoads, Bill Hoff, Pam Butler.
No matter where girls gather, gossip is almost sure to circulate.
As Jeannie looks through her mail and Ada tends to the
switchboard, Heidi, Ruby, and Lisa discuss the latest.
Miles Doughton, the manager of the research bureau, lights
Meg's cigarette when she offers her opinion in a survey of
four new flavors: anise, peppermint, rose, and spearmint.

We have certainly had a successful year,
At the annual vespers service on Sunday, June 10, Howe
seniors, parents, and patrons of the community heard the
choir sing the traditional "The Lord Bless You and Keep You."
Since receiving senior rings on February 10 of
last year, we, the 1962 seniors of Howe High
School, have gradually advanced to a respected
position among all Howeites. As freshmen, we calm-
ly accepted hisses in assembly and bashfully picked
up our books when teasing upperclassmen knocked
them from our hands. In time we gained stature,
and proudly we "booed" at other freshmen when they
dropped their trays in lunch. We were still inferior
though, as our butterfly nets signified. The arrival of
the Junior Prom and class rings paved the way for
our last and greatest year.
There were the usual things — mock election,
homeroom in the cafeteria, front row seats in as-
sembly, class officers, colors, parties, and, as al-
ways, the commencement and senior prom. But
somehow each of these prestige symbols meant
more to us; this year the honors were ours. Together
we cheered our athletic teams, rehearsed for the
Pleasant Run Revue, laughed at "Jose Jimenez,"
studied our Indiana government, sang along with
Mitch, danced the "Twist," and weeped at our last
sectionals. It was a year of mixed emotions, and
one never to be forgotten.
From babies to hillbillies, from a doctor to a calypso dancer
complete with bongoes, all types of senior basketball players
showed up for the annual contest with the faculty "fatmen,"
only to see the senior team go down in defeat. Besides the
rousing entertainment of the game, the girls' and boys'
drill teams and the cheerleaders provided some laughs.

As they get ready for the prom, seniors
realize that in a few hours their high
school days will all be over. With the
strains of "Pomp and Circumstance" still
in his mind, each senior will soon dance

dine at the Heritage, the Chuck Wagon,
or the Italian Village. Proudly Jim Gir-
ton presents his date, Pat Mulry with an
orchid corsage, the dream of every girl.

... and the 1962 HILLTOPPER staff meets the
final deadline and hands over the tools of the trade
to next year's staff. The preceding summer we spent
learning about yearbook layout and copywriting in
summer institutes. In school we spent many days
taking pictures, recording names, counting money,
drawing layouts and writing for our book.
The HILLTOPPER became a larger book this year
and used the offset printing process for the first time.
The staff is indebted to Mr. Bob Cavanagh of Amer-
ican Yearbook Company, Mr. Jack Bundy of S. K.
Smith Cover Company, and to Earl and Mike Loud-
ermilk of Loudermilk's Studios for photography.
Cheers at the games, prettiest dresses at the dance,
jeans and sweat shirts at scenery painting sessions,
and the everyday faces of Howeites hard at work in
classes went into this yearbook. Distribution of the
HILLTOPPER, closely followed by graduation signal
the end of this school year.
The HILLTOPPER has recorded the events of this
year in the hope that you, the reader, will remem-
ber - THIS IS THOMAS CARR HOWE HIGH
SCHOOL- 1962.
