Here stands the school of red and blue,

It has stood for many a year,
And to this school we'll ever be true,
Because, to our hearts, we hold it dear.
We think this school is truly grand,
Yes, to us the best school in the land. l
r
This is one of the townships where it is next to impossible to tell who taught the
first school or where it was taught. Schools were so few and so scattering, and at the
same time EO unimportant, that they have passed hopelessly beyond the powers of rec-
r ollection. Among the early teachers were Moss, Harrah, Wines, and Osborn. A log
I schoolhouse was built near Linton,as early, it is said, as 1828. Two others were built
soon afterwards. Three log cabins were standing in about 1832, all of which were burned
by prairie fires set out by hunters to drive deer into the woods where they could be shot
from concealment.

The Testament and Webster's Speller were indispensable to the early schools. Writ-
ing was done with a quill sharpened by the teacher. "Mend my pen" was an expression
of frequent daily occurrence. Spelling schools were numerous and famous. Young people
would "ride double" miles to attend one and would stand and spell and spell until mid-
night.

An old school-house near the cemetery west of Linton was used many years. It was
succeeded by a log structure erected in the eastern part of Linton in the 1840's. In
1859, a new frame schoolhouse was erected . This was destroyed after the close of the
Civil War., and another frame house was built.

In 1882, a two-storied frame schoolhouse in the southeastern part of town was

El'ected. S. P. Garress was the first teacher. He was joined by John Cravens as an assist-
ant, who becam,e principal in 1883. Mr. Cravens introduced the first high school work at
that time.

The old Central Building was built in 1893 and the high school used the upstairs
until 1899 when the building burned. The length of term at this time was 51/2 months
l and the high school was not commissioned. A new Central Building was built soon after
this. In 1901 it was commissioned under the supervision of Oscar E. Dye. Some athletics
were introduced at this time. There were only two or three teachers and the only subjects
taught were history, math, government, English, and Latin. In 1905 the school which is
now called the Junior High was erected, and it was occupied by the 7th and 8th grades
and high school. It became very crowded and the 7th and 8th were sent back to the Cen-
tral Building. Soon after this time new subjects were introduced including: botany,
chemistry, physics, manual training, drawi ng, art, and domestic science.

In 1921 our present high school building was erected. We now have 20 teachers, and
our curricula has been expanded to include: public speaking, social studies, commercial
work, agriculture, trigonometry, geometry, psychology, health, and biology.

Senior Class History [
It won't be long until we're free;
Time has passed swiftly since '43.
We thought it would be grand when we were through,
[
But now to think of it makes us mighty blue.
Yes, now we've all changed our tune,
Because we're graduating very soon. l
When we were Freshmen, it could be seen
That we weren't any different from all the rest,
That had graduated and become the best.
[
Then when we were Sophomores, it seemed swell to know
That only two more years, we had to go.

But, when we were Juniors, we soon began to doubt

l
That it would really be so nice after we were out.
Now we are Seniors, looking back through the years,
Remembering the proms, the ball games, and all the joys and tears.
We would not trade these four years for anything that you could give,
l
As all their happy memories, we will so oft relive.

Junior Class History

We had a wonderful time oUl' Freshman year. We couldn't have wanted
a fairer initiation than what we had. It wasn't too difficult and the fun we
had taking it. We didn't study very hard, thus living up to OUl' nick-name
"Green Freshmen."
[ Our Sophomore year we worked a little 1110re but still had OUl' fun.
We were then "Silly Sophomores." We began attending school parties more
regularly and became more interested in school organizations.

l Now we are "Jolly Juniors," literally speaking, and very happy to be.
We have to st udy now and every occasion we have, we grumble about our
homevvork.

l N ext yea r we'll feel a little unhappy about leaving "good 'ole L. H. S."
We will be proud that its spirit lives on because the boys and girls who have
graduated will not let it die.

l Many people do not realize that it takes more than eleven men to
make a football team. Although many of these boys never participated in
any games during the entire season, the splendid football record that the

a debt of gratitude to each and everyone of these lads.

Wabash Valley tackle 1945-46, S. I. A. C.
All-conference tackle 1946. Hunk played
in the first game he ever saw. For four
years Hunk started and played in every
game. He is the best linesman developed
here in recent years. We expect to heal'
more from Hunk
LEE RICHARDSON, Senior, Co-cap-
tain 1946. Lee was a member of the varsity
team the past two seasons playing both
guard and center. Lee was especially tough
on the defense. He leaves a tough spot to
be filled in the middle of our line.
RAY HUBBLE, Senior. Another boy
who played foul' years of varsity ball. Ray
was a great defensive and a willing work-
er . He caught the pass that helped defeat
Gerstmeyer 7-6.
DICI{ MITCHELL, Senior, Guard.
Dick has had more than his share of tough
luck He suffered a broken thumb, and at
the opening of practice this year, before
the Riley game, he broke his leg. This
kept him from any playing. This was the
year he was looking forward to as he was
slated for a regular post.
DWIGHT OSHA, Senior, end. This is the
lad that really developed. Stepped into
Bob Keller's shoes and did a splendid job.
He is big, fast, and rugged, and we pre-
dict a fine future for him in football.
BILL ORMAN, Senior. Played tackle
the last two years. Big, strong, and fast.
Bill was the most improved boy on our
team last year. He is coming into his best
playing years. We think that you will heal'
more of him.
SAM LUCAS, Senior. First year for
athletics and did a magnificent job. Played
guard and was hard to move out of there.
He was big, fast and rough and our oppon-
l ents were lucky that Luke laclced a little
more experi~nce .
l JIM SMITH, Senior, Tackle. Jim was
another dependable. He loved the game and
practiced diJigen tly. He will be missed
l also.
JIM MARSHALL, Senior, back. Small
but fast. Stepped into Pete's place after
the South Bend game and did a fine job.
A fine boy to work with and a valuable
player.
BUD PETERSON, Senior. One of
Linton's best backs. In his junior year, he
was chosen on the All-state second team.
He suffered a broken leg in the first game
of the season and thus missed most of his
final year. He came back on one leg to
help defeat Tech and was in the winning
column against Bicknell and Sullivan. Also
All-Valley back 1945.
MARION PERSHING, Senior, Tackle.
Shorty was one of those dependable boys
you like to have -a round . Always at prac-
tice and always on time. He did a good job
and i-ve will miss him.
"SCOTTY" McBRIDE, Senior, End .
Scotty returned after a year's leave from
the squad and performed his duties well.
NIGEL LEHMAN, Junior, Guard.
Nigel should really have a big year in '47.
He played a fine all-around game for Hie
Miners this past season.
TED OGLE, Junior, Guard. Another
boy that should have a big year ahead of
him. He is big and loves to play.
JOE CURTIS, Junior, Guard and Cen-
ter. Joe wiII make it tough on some of the
big boys in '47. He is plenty rough despite
his small size.
BOB ELI{INS, Junior, Back Bob is a
nice big boy. He is fast enough and a capa-
ble passel' and kicker. He really-should get
going this next season.
MARION WOOLSEY, Junior, Back.
"Snake-Hips" is a good name for him. He
is just that. Clever, fast, and tough. Mari-
on should really be a whiz next season.
ROY PRICE, Junior, Back. "The
Mighty Atom" for his size, he is the best
we have seen. He is as tough as they come,
and when they smack him down he looks
up and gives them that big smile. Quite

We at L . H. S. this year are extremely lucky in having managers as c·a pa-
ble as we possess. Charles Fusco worked with all of the athletic teams:
football, basketball, and track, while Bob Moss worked only with the bas- [
ketball squad. Marion Pershing was 'a lsoan assistant manager of track.
The members of the different teams are the ones who recognize and appre-
ciate the talents of the managers and this year they will tell you that there [.
is talent abounding from these three hustling managers.

Here are the boys who staged the curtain-raisers of our varsity games.
Winning a large per cent of their games, the B Team lads defeated such
strong teams ·as, Clinton, Garfield, Martinsville, and Bloomington. The rec-
ord of this group speaks for future rosy seasons. There is only -one junior
in the entire group, the rest being freshmen and sophomores.

VALLEY PRELIMINARIES LADSON'S RESIGNATION
The Linton Miners opened their
title defense of the W,abash Val'-
ley Championship against Swit-
zers of Switz City in the opening
game of the preliminaries at Lin-
ton. The Miners came through as
expected to hand the Switzers a
54 to 32 setback. Next to feel the
Miner's picks, were the Bloom-
field Cardinals, who found them-
selves on the short end of a 37 to
26 score. In the final' game of the
Preliminaries the Scotties from
Scotland were set back 56 to 24,
as the Miners earned the right to
compete in the Finals at Terre
Haute .
LINTON DEFEATED
IN SEMI FINALS
Overcoming a gigantic first half
lead that Jasonville's Yellow
J ,ackets had bunt up, the Miners,
in the second half, and using a
fast break effectively, built up a
co.mmanding lead and at the close
of the game were puLing ahead
of the Jackets steadily . The final
score was: Linton 41, Jasonville
36 . In their second game, the
Miners defeated the Pal'estine Pi-
oneers 69 to 24, in a game at the
Twelve Point gym. Featuring
Clyde Lovelette, tiny 6'9" center,
the Garfield Purple Eagles de-
fe,ated the Miners for the second
time this season as they handed
the Linton squa,d a 56 to 46 se t-
back in the semi-finals of the
Valley tournament at the state
gy,m. Garfield went on to capture
the Wabash Valley Champion-
ship.

MINERS WIN OVER
SURPRISING MIDDIES
OVER JASONVILLE
Coach Garland La,d son, who has
been head ba~'ketball coach at
Linton Stockton High School for
the past six seasons, has resigned
his position due to ill' he.alth.
Coach Ladson came to Linton
High from Junior High School
where he successfully coached 'f or
five years.
,During the past seasons the
Miner's netmen have rolled up a
total of ,123 victories to 37 defeats .
Ladson has guided six teams into
the fin.als of the Wabash Valle y
tournament at Terre Haute, and
in 1946 succeeded in bringing the
Valley Championship back to
Linton . Nineteen and forty-six
was also the first time that the
Miners have ever advanced to
the semi-fin.als of the state tour -
nament. In his years at Linton,
Coach La,dson has won five out of
six sectional tournaments. During
his reign at Linton, the Miners
have never lost a touranment
which has been held in the Linton
gymnas·ium.

The Linton Miners started off the basketball season thi s year slowly
but as time rolled around they seem ed to pick up a sureness tha t spelled vic-
tory. By the time the season was over, the Miners had compiled a r ecord of
[. 19 wins against 6 losses. Of these six games lost, three times the Garfield
Purple Eagles inflicted the damage. This may seem a di sgrace a t first but
the Garfield team was the runner-up to the State Champs from Shelbyville.

This is the group that leads the fans in inspiration to our athletic
teams. The yell leaders have put in many long hours of practice in order
to develop teamwork among themselves such as the teams possess. This
group traveled to all the games away from home, usually leading a large
group of fans . All of the yell-leaders will be back next year as there is not
a senior in the group. Bebe and Shirley are juniors; Betty is a sophomore;
and Loren is only a freshman. We owe to these yell-leaders an unpayable
debt of gratitude.

[ We have one of the best quarter-mile tracks in the state at this time
anel this is due particularly to the fine work of Mr. Wells together with
his helpers.

This track is the scene of the Linton Invitational Night Relays which
[ attracts more teams than any other night meet in the state. This is the
third year that the Relays have been held and over four hundred athletes
from twenty schools were entered in the meet. The old weather man was
against us once more on the day of the Relays as it rained the whole after-
[ noon and part of the night. Reitz of Evansville was the winning team this
year with Vincennes coming in ·a close second.

l This year the Linton thinly-clads took part in meets at Vincennes,

Bicknell, and Bloomfield. They also participated in the S.LA.C. meet at
[
Linton, the Valley meet at Terre Haute, and state meets at Bloomington
and Indianapolis.

This was the first year that Linton has been represented by ·a cross-coun-

he was the 150 lb. representative of his company while in the

ranged several outstanding boxing shows. Among the boxers appearing
here were: Elza Stevens, Jack Gilman, Bill Haga, Dave Cowden, Art Shaef-

Fighters also appeared from the Gibault Home, White A. C., and Boys
Club, all from Terre Haute. Other fighters came from Jasonville, Marshall,
Clinton, and Indianapolis. l
These boxing shows were all presented in the nc-.-, gymnasium before
very good crowds. Several Linton boxers appeared on these local programs.
Coach Johnson also took many of these lads to appear on out-of-town

And we'll have to admit it was lots of fun
But now the time is drawing nigh,
To close our book and say goodbye.
