 Coming up the sidewalk, we see the date "1921" inscribed over the en-
trance of L. H. S. A little more than twenty-five years ago this building
was merely in the development stage. Now we hail the SILVER ANNI-
VERSARY of Linton-Stockton High School.

During these twenty-five years many improvements have taken place. We

especially appreciate the numerous improvements which have been made
in the last four years. Our thanks go to those who have made them possible.

Upon entering the building we see the "old faithful" time-piece ticking
away the minutes which will soon bring about class time. On either side of
the clock we see an accumulation of trophies collected by our athletic teams
through the years. Shining above all others are the two beautiful trophies
•J
won this year.

Turning down the hall to the right we pass the office. From here come the
latest bulletins and information. It is a pleasure to enter the office upon
our own initiative, there to secure promptly and pleasantly the desired
knowledge, but to enter upon request ... well let's not talk about that;
besides it's almost class time. The five-minute bell has just rung. Since
this is our last day of school, we're making the rounds, taking a final look
at the old class rooms where we've studied for the past four years.

The following pages picture the memories of our high school years that
we will always cherish.

Mr. Joh11O;on has served two yea rs as s uperintendent at L. H. S. during which time he has proved
himself worthy of his office and of t he resp ect he rec e ives . In add ition to handling successfully his
duties in the office, he has been an ardent booster of all activiti es about the school.

Mary Jane, the bookkeeper and secretary to Mr. John-

wn, won the friendship of the students with her co-
operation and ch eerful manner. We were sorry to see
her l eave after the first semester this year.

Mrs . Owen, who took Mary Jane's place, has during her
o,~c scme3ter h Ere won the respect and the admiration
cf the pupils of Lin :on-Stockton high school.

Miss Phillips, in her duties in the office as prin cipal and in her duties outside of the office as
teacher, director of the Senior play, and sponsor of the Senior class and 1946 Revue, has set an ex-
amp le that will be an incentive to all of us to do as good a job in all we undertake.
We gratefully express our appreciation for her guidance and co-operation during our high school
life.

Though Eern eice is the youngest person working in the

office, she has been there longer than any other of our
present office staff. Her smile and helpful attitude have
made h er a friend to all during our four years here.

Since entering "ye ole front door" back in '42, we, the cbss of '4G, have not only gained
a certain amount of knowledge, but also have developed for ourselves a record of which
we can r ightfully be proud.
When we were the green Freshies, we received our rigid initiation, but were not to be
outdone in any 'vay. Soon after school was under way, there was need for a nation-
wide scrap drive. Consequently, the front walk began to clutter up ominously with huge
piles of metal. It was the Freshmen who edged a victory to outscrap the other classes.
Tommy Smith was the class president.
Coming into our sophomore year, Tommy still presiding, we walked away with the
scrap paper drive. We, at this time, were beginning to find out what high school was
all about.
Come Junior year, we found that we were faced with putting on the Junior-Senior Prom.
And what a prom we did put on! Not only the usual dance but also a banquet. Johnny
Hodges was the presiding officer and was l:lrgely responsible for our third successful
year.
In our Senior year, we find that we have more re sponsibilities than ever before. Be-
sides making the yearbook and seeing that we graduate, we must think about our fu-
ture. Aside from our responsibilities, however, with Norma McPhail as president, and
still not to be outdone, we join the rest of the school in constituting two champion ath-
letic teams and a magnificent student back ing.

 The Rotary Citizenship awards are based on character, phy-

sique, scholarship, attitude, personality, and community ~ pirit

exemplified by a senior boy and girl during their four years

of high school.

The Frank Courtney American Legion Post pre-

sents the American Legion award to the student

who has attained the highest scholastic record

during his high school career.

The Bausch and Lomb Honorary Science award medal

is presented to the graduating boy or girl who has main-
taiJled the best academic record in the course of at least
three high school science subjects.
Accompanying this award is an opportunity for a science
scholarship at the University of Rochester.
We, the Senior Class of '46, being noted for exceedingly intelligent minds and strong
bodies, do hereby declare this to be our last will and testament.

To our dearly beloved school we leave all our marks, office girls, scars, principal, grades,
and old wornout books and desks, also our superintendent and teachers, since we have
no place to store them on account of the hou sing shortage.

To the Juniors we will all our responsibilities, hoping that they will make the future
Freshmen feel at home, keep the Sophomores from acting like infants and the Juniors
of next year from being teachers' pets. They may have our seats in the auditorium and
our high ranking in the social world.

To the Sophomores we leave the halls, the clock, and the ability to learn to adjust it by
remote control so that they will never be late to class. There is also a large bottle of dis-
tilled water in the chemistry lab that they may have if they can catch the teacher not
looking.

To the Freshmen, our babies, we leave all our childish ways and habits, all the "dirty
stomps" and "chicken hawks" left over that the Senior boys did not catch. Then most of
all, little ones, we leave to you our most cherished possession, L. H. S., in which to build
four future until you graduate as intelligent as your dear departing Seniors.

To the band members we leave the "lit-tIe room" where they can always keep their
instruments.

Done on the twenty-fourth day of May, nineteen hundred forty-six, in the year of our
Lord.

We came into high school in the fall of '43

We were just green Freshmen a s everyone could see.
We took our initiation, all in such good cheer
which gave us a swell state for the coming year.
As sophisticated Sophomores, we thought we knew it all
Looked down on lowly Freshmen and strutted down the hall.
We had just begun to realize, the things we had to do,
So we set our minds upon them, to surely see them through.
Now, we're upper-classmen, and to think we're almost through
Gives us a funny feeling, and makes us mighty blue.

As vve have done the pas t three years-but only time will tell.

 Every year the Junior Chamber of Com-
merce of Linton presents a trophy to a
member of the basketball and football
teams. This trophy is awarded on the
basis of sportsmanlike conduct, attitude,
lE:adership, and character.

These awards were won this year by Bob

Keller in football and Tom Dudley in r
basketball.
Gold footballs and gold basketballs were
also presented to the Senior lettermen in
both football and basketball.

ROY WILLIAMS has been our head football coach for the past five years. In that length
of time his t eams have made an admirable record. In his second year here, in 1942, his team
won the Wabash Valley championship; and again this year, after dev eloping talent for [
the last two years, he brought his boys home in front in the Southern Indiana Athletic
Conference race. Mr. Williams' years at Lin ton High have tru ly been worthy ones. Be-
sides coaching the football team, he has help ed develop Linton's track until it is now one [
of the finest in the state, and he is very much interested in the betterment of our schoo!.
He is well liked and admired by all students and ranks highest in the minds of his players.
r

REV. R. B. BALDRIDGE has been of great assistance to Coach Williams during the past
[
few yea r s in helping our boys on the football team. He is a familial' figure to the students
and has shown profound interest in the school by taking part in many of its activities.

---$--

COACH GARLAND LADSON: Garland Ladson has been basketball coach at Linton High
for five years. In those five years his teams have won five Wabash Valley preliminaries,
foul' state sectionals, one Wabash Valley championship, one state regional. In addition
to this his 1944-45 team won the first West Central Conference championship. These
many victories constitute truly a remarkable record. Mr. Ladson is very popular with
the student body who feels that he is probably the finest basketball coach in this part
of the co untry.

C. O. WELLS: Mr. Wells is our track coach here at L. H. S. Beginning last year, he
vvorked from the ground up and now has a squad of boys who should go places on the
cinders this spring. Mr. Wells was an outstanding track man in his high schools clays.

Besides being track coach, he has been very helpfu l to Mr. Williams and the football boys
during football season. He is also the sponsor of the Junior class. l

Although many members of the football squad received no special recogni-

tion during the season, they were indispensible factors in making the var-
sity good enough to rate in the "big ten" of the state. The varsity will
always remember the help they received from the rest of the sq uad and
L
wish them the best of luck when the time comes for them to be on the first
eleven.

This is a football varsity team that will not soon be forgotten. Although
many members of this gridiron lineup have acquired All-State and All-
Valley honors of which we are proud, it was the team, through its co-
operation, skill, and wholehearted efforts, that brought home to our school
the glory and honor that always accompanies the title CHAMPS.
This school year, perhaps more than any in the past, has been one of great achievement and suc-
cess for the athletic teams of Linton-Stockton High School.

Our 1945 football team, champions of the Southern Indiana Athletic Conference , hung up the best
record of any Linton eleven in more than a decade.
r
The boys were off to a fine start as they downed an out-manned Dugger team 32-0 on the local field
in the first game of the season.

Next came Tech of Terre Haute, who did not anticipate too much trouble in downing our team.
However, after trailing for almost three quarters, our boys came through by block ing a punt behind
Tech's goal line. Bill (just a darn-minute) Orman fell on the pigskin for a touchdown and Bob
(automatic toe) Keller connected with one of his twenty-two placement kicks of the season to rap
up our second victory. This game was played in a sea of mud.

Garfield of Terre Haute was next on the list. After outplaying their team for almost the entire game,
we were finally scored upon and the game ended in a 6-6 tie.
r
A week later our boys raced over a weak Huntingburg team by a score of 33-0. This was Woolsey's
last game of the season because of an operation .

Our boys showed what they were made of in the next tilt by outscoring a fine Boonville team that
lost only two games all season. This was perhaps the roughest game of the season, with Boonville
outweighing our players at every position. Bud Peterson scored all three of our touchdowns, and
Keller converted twice to build up a 21-6 score.

In our sixth game of the season we carried a won 4 - tied 1 record into our game with Vincennes.
They were rated as one of the best teams in the state. This time our boys again came from behind
and we carried home a 7-6 verdict.

The next game was somewhat of a lineman's night as "Hunk" Richardson and Tom Dudley, tackle
and center, scored touchdowns against a tough Brazil eleven. Ham and Keller each scored a touch-
down, and Keller kicked five consecutive placement points to complete the 35-0 score.

Our game with Bloomington was one in which our boys could not seem to get going as they had pre-
viously, but we came home with a 14-0 victory, chiefly because of the fine line plunging play of
fullback Hubble.

Bicknell brought a weak team to Linton for our homecoming game and we rolled over them 32-0.
Roy Price, Sophomore halfback, who took the place of his uncle, Marion Woolsey, ran the boys from
Bicknell dizzy.

On November 12, we journeyed to Sullivan for our traditional Armistice Day battle with the Gol-
den Arrows. We had not beaten Sullivan since 1933 and this year our Fightin ' Miners were de-
termined to break the "jinx." They did! Our team came through in grand style and walloped them
22-0 to close out a memorable season.

During this ten-game schedule our team won nine games and tied one. They scored 214 points to
their opponents 24, and their goal line was not crossed after the Vincennes game. From this year's
team we lose seven Seniors: Frank Miller, Bob Keller, Willard Ham, Tom Dudley, Harry Gabbard,
Horace Muerer, and Shirley Osborn-four regulars and three of the best replacements. L

boys." It has been an inspiration to me to work with such fine boys. You have brought to your
r school, yourselves, and to me an honor of which we are all proud. Thanks, fellows! I am hoping that
as the years slip by I will occasionally have a boy of your type on the squad. From such fellows
champions are made.
-Coach Williams.

CAPTAIN TOM DUDLEY, Senior:

Possessing all the qualities of a fine leader, Tommie was the ideal team man. He played equally
well in the line and backfield. Tom called Signals, backed up the line, played guard and center, and
occasionally took a place in the backfield. Tom is the type that is almost impossible to replace.
BOB KELLER, Senior:
Bob is the boy with the educated toe. Bob played end and a dependable game on both offense
and defense. He was faithful, dependable, and hard working.
WILLARD HAM, Senior:
Willard was our hard working back. He did a swell job handling our "T" formation and did
equally well as a blocker on our other formation. He was a shifty runner and excellent blocker.
His fine attitude and a love for the game make it difficult to fill his shoes.
FRANK MILLER, Senior:
Frankie is one of the best guards ever developed at Linton. He really mixed 'em up on defense and
was a fine running guard on offense. He was the mixer in our five-man line, and our defensive
record attests the good work he did.
RAY HUBBLE, Junior:
Ray played end on the defense and fullback on offense. He was a fast, hard-charging player who
made it tough on opponents. See the Sullivan team for references.
CHARLES RICHARDSON, Junior:
Hunk was an ALL-STATE and ALL-VALLEY tackle. He is one of Linton's best linesmen, and
opponents for next fall are wondering how to stop him. Hunk is big and fast, and his love for
the game makes us glad he's on our side.
LEE RICHARDSON, Junior:
Lee played both guard and center for us. He showed great promise this fall and next year should
find him an outstanding player.
BILL ORMAN, Junior:
Bill is our big boy who plays the tackle position. This fall was Bill's first, and by the end of the
season he was the most improved player on the squad. Bill should really go in '46.
BOB ELKINS, Sophomore:
Bob played end on offense and was a halfback on defense. He is a fine defensive player and shows
great promise for the next two years.
BUD PETERSON, Junior:
Bud was an ALL-VALLEY back and was also picked on the second ALL-STATE team . Pete
has all it takes to make a fine back. He can run, pass, and kick with the best of them. He also,
should develop into one of the state's fine defensive players.
ROY PRICE, Sophomore:
l Roy stepped into his uncle Marion's shoes in the middle of the season and did a fine job. "Little
but mighty" best describes him.
MARION WOOLSEY, Sophomore:
Marion was doing a good job until he was stopped by an operation. Fast, a shifty runner, and a
good left handed passer, he is on the heels of his brother Max. Enough said.
HARRY GABBARD, Senior:
Hard-working Harry was a loyal, dependable player. Handicapped by his small size, he made up
for it by his determination and willingness to play.
SHIRLEY OSBORN, Senior:
This was the first year for Shirley and he was doing a good job until he developed foot trouble. He
played guard and was hard to get out of there.
HORACE MEURER, Senior:
Horace was an end and did a very good job of it. Only two ends like Keller and Hubble could
keep him off the first eleven.
-Coach Williams.
Our homecoming football game with Bicknell was highlighted by the
crowning of the king and queen. An election was held by the student body
early in the week, and th e results of the balloting were kept secret until
time for the crowning.

The king and queen were selected from the Senior class with attendants
representing the other three classes. The queen chosen was Margie O'Hern.
The king was Tom Dudley . The Junior attendants were Rita Halbach and
Charles Richardson: Sophomores, Barbara Gilmour and Bob Elkins ; and
Freshmen, Faye Baize and Phil Little. The homecoming was sponsored
by the Student Council.

Robison , Jim McCulloch. Second Row- Bruce Miller, Charles Woodruff, Alfred Mc-
Bride, Bill Orman, Bob Richardson, Robert Kline.

These are the boys who have staged the curtain rai EerJ durin] the ba sket-
ball seawn this year. They are a hardworking bunch who are looking for-
ward to the day that they will become the first team. As in football, the
basketball second string has played an important part in perfecting the
skill of the "big five."
There were no individual stars on our squad-one boy was just as valuable as another.
Many coaches remarked that they had never seen a team in which the boys worked to-
gether better than the Miners. Teamwork wa3 the one great factor that brought about the
eighteen-game-winning streak.

Tom Dudley, Bob Keller, and Willard Ham were the three Seniors. Bud Peterson, John
Sanders, Charles "Hunk" Richardson,and Phil Russell were Juniors. Marion Woolsey,
Bob Elkins, and Max Dye were Sophomores. These ten boys had the stuff that it took to
win. They were the boys that cut down the nets at Terre Haute, Worthington, and
Martinsville.

Unlike a year ago when eight of the first ten boys graduated, the Miners will be coming
back strong and looking forward to another successful season next year. In keeping
stride with our undefeated football team, our 1945-46 basketball team enjoyed its most
successful season in the history of our school.

The season opened with Bicknell 32, Linton 27: Bosse (Evansville) 59, Linton 19; Central
(Evansville) 44, Linton 32. "Too bad," said the fans . "The Miners will do well to win a
game this season."

Then something happened! On January 11 they began winning and from that date until
March 9 the Linton boys did not lose a game. It was an eighteen-game-winning streak that
included winning the Wabash Valley Tourney , State Sectional, and the State Regional
Tourneys before bowing to Central of Ev,a nsville in the semi-finals at Bloomington.

Records were broken- For the first time in the history of our school, Linton had won a
Regional and advanced to the "Sweet Sixteen" teams in the state. It was also the first
time for a Valley Champ to win both the valley and a regional; and a new mark of eight-
een straight victories had been won.

The second annual Linton Invitational Relays established a traditional

election of a queen and her court made up of the lassies of the student body.
The pupils of each third period class of the student body voted on April 21,
individually and secretly for the girl whom they wanted as their queen.
Morning of the next day the votes were counted by members of the student
council.

Rita Halbach, had the honor of having bestowed upon her the title of
queen. Rita was elected vice-president of her class at the beginning of the
year. Rita has been a part of all elections held for a queen and her court
in years previous. She had as her attendants: Rose Scecina, Barbara Gil-
mour, Gloria Fisk, Patty Clark, Doris Frederick, Rita Rogers, Norma Mc-
Phail and Margie O'Hern.

Dawned the night of the big event and royal robes were discarded for rain-
coats and umbrellas. The honored queen and her court stood out among the
spectators by having at their disposal the honored parking place at the
track. Parked on the outer edge of the rack, and dressed in assorted colored
suits, they presented trophies and ribbons to all winning participants in
the track meet.

Reading left to right in the above picture are Rose Scecina; Rita Halbach,
the "queen;" Barbara Gilmour, Gloria Fisk, Patty Clark, Doris Frederick,
and Rita Rodgers. (Members of court not in photo: Margie O'Hern and
l
Norma McPhail). [

Track, after being dropped at Linton hi gh school for several year s, is

being revived.

We are looking forward to a very successful seas()n on the cinders this

spring. We have many promising candidates in both the track and field
events; namely, Bob Ball in the di st ance runs, Jim Marshall in the dashes
and field events, Phil Russell in the mile, and "Hunk" Richardson in the
shot-put.

Due to the hard work of Mr. Wells and Mr. Williams on t h e track, the
 Charles Woodruff Bud Peterson Bill Marshall
Jim Marshall Phil Russell Bill Orman

backing of our fine superintendent, Mr. Johnson, and labor of several

others, we now have probably as fine a place for a track meet as any
other school in the state of Indiana.

Our schedule, as it stands now, includes several dual meets with such
schools as Bloomington and Vincennes, highlighted by the biggest meet of
its kind in Indiana, the LINTON INVITATIONAL NIGHT RELAYS, and
climaxed by the state sectional event.

Here's to a very successf ul season, Coach Wells!

athletics.
 JOE CURTIS, BOB WILSON, RAY HUBBLE , FRANK WILSON

Under the supervision of Mr. Johnson, Linton high has come to the front
with a formidable array of boxing talent this year.

The boys who have boxed this year are Ray Hubble, Frank Wilson, Fred
Buckner, Joe Curtis, Dwight Hasting s, Jim Marshall, and Bob Wilson.
These boys are coming along in promising style and have the makings of
champions. Much credit should be given to Mr. Johnson for his interest
·a nd supervision of these boys.
 Phil Li~tlc, Gary Flater

The boys who do the hard work, get little credit, and help keep the athletic
teams inaction , are the st udent managers. Their job is to take care of and
issue the equipment, run errands, and do any other duty which may help
our teams. This year our student managers were Gary Flater, Phil Little, l
Roy Miller, and Charles Fusco. These boys have played no little part in the
tremendous success of our athletic teams. May they continue to do so.

Linton High School is very fortunate in having as fine yell leaders as we

have had thi s year. The credit for seeing that the team gets the support
of the fans should go directly to these girls. They are the ones, next to the
teams, who cast a good or bad name on th e school. Our yell leaders this
year have been responsible for the fine sportsmanship shown by the fans
in many close and trying games. We are also fortunate in having all classes
in school represented by the yell leaders. Because of this system, we do
not have all new members every year, but one, two, or three with previous
experience. This year the only Senior is Rose Tincher. Ricarda Bland is a
Junior, Bebe Richards and Shirley Franks are Sophomores, and Bette May
is a Freshman.
Miss Phillips, who is in charge of the yell leaders, has put in many hours
of working with the girls for better yells and more support from the fans.
Much credit should be given her for her successful work with the yell
leaders.

The purpose of the stamp club is to study stamp issues of our own and
foreign countries, commemorative stamps and events that caused these
special issues, and the geographical and historical background of stamps .
Any news that directly or indirectly bears on stamps is of interest to
the club.
This year several meetings have been devoted to the study of war zone
stamps. Several club members who had relatives and friends in service
brought collections of stamps that these service people had sent them from
foreign countries. Usually they had an interesting story to tell about how
the stamps were secured. Our own country made commemorative stamps
of the various branches of our war service which were studied by the club.

Blue Tri is the local name for the Girl Reserve. It is a high school girls'
organization which is a part of the nationally known Y. W. C. A. The en-
trance requirements of the Blue Tri are more challenging than those of the
average high school organization. The Blue Tri co-operated this year with
the Hi-Y as hosts and hostesses for the annual district meeting.

of this club is "to create, maintain, and extend, thro ugho ut the sch ool and
community, high standards of Christian character." During the past year
the Hi-Y has sponsored a convocation by a full blooded Indian, Joe Friday;
a lso at that time it cond ucted an old clothing drive which was very
successful.

The Hi-Y this year celebrated its twentieth anniversary in Linton High
