D. C. H. S. BEGAN ATHLETICS, 1920 Rapid Progress Made In Athletics Despite Small Number Os Boys In the fall of 1920, a mere handful of girls held a meeting with Father Peters and organized a basketball team. This marked the birth of athletics in U C. H S. The pioneer athletes were) Margaret Mylott. Irene 1 Holthouse. Charlotte Niblick, Helen i Gass. Marie Foos, Anna Baker and Anna Dowling. Not to be outdone by the girls, the ' boys (although only two in number) linked themselves with the eighth grade boys, who ’ater showed such great prowess, and formed a team. This was in the season of 1920-21. Season of 1921 In September, 1921, the boys definitely organized a basketball team for they had six freshmen to Join them. Father Peters proffered his services as a coach. No definite schedule was arranged, but the coach managed to secure eight games for the . boys. Although they lost five of the games, they felt they had, gained 1 much in the way of experience. The girls reorganized their team and progressed under the guidance of Father Peters. They played several games with D. H. S. aud the St. i Catherine girls of Fort and ( always made a splendid showing. Season of 1922 In 1922. athletics were given a de- ’ cided boost when the services of Lawrence Linn, former D. H. S star, were secured. Mr. Linn proved an efficient coach, for his charges made very cred/tab'-e showings against teams representing schools with a far larger enrollment than that of D C H. S. | The girls’ team, having learned the fundamentals of the game, enjoyed the privilege of competing with ; six or seven out-of-town teams. In the majority of the games, they had i the short end of the score, but this. , was undoubtedly because of their | lack of experienca. Nevertheless, their spirits never ebbed and they ■ persistently stuck to the rope until 1 the end of the season, and made plans for a bigger and better girls’ team in 1923. I Season of 1923 In 1923. athletics were given an' added impetus by the addition of football to the curriculum of sports. Th's was made possible by the active interest and generosity of many local business men. who contributed the munificent sum of SSOO for the purchase of football equipment. France , Conter, local, wide-awake, young 1 business man, accepted the difficult , task of working with raw material. Raw, indeed, for many of the boys had never before engaged in even a practice game of this famous sport. However, Mr. Conter more than fulfilled his contract as is readily seen by comparing the team’s first defeat. i 56-0, with its second 24-7. The team I closed the season without a victory, but they were not discouraged and looked forward to the bright pros- ' pects of the coming year. I Soon after Thanksgiving, the boys iri'UIVI'MIAT OF EXEC I TOR Notice is hereby given. That tlie un- ' dersigned has been appointed Executor of the Estate of Catharine E.

and girls opened the basketball season. ( Since the former coach, Lawrence Linn, was now a student ut the University of Indiana. France Conter, graduate of I V. and football couch. became the director of the boys' team. Father Peters, the managar. arranged a schedule of sixteen games. The team made an enviable record\that year, losing only three games. Two of these were lost to C. C H. &. by scores of 14-10 und 13- ‘ 12. • The 1923-’24 basketball season was a great improvement over past aea- , sousafor the girls as well us the boys. The Varsity won eight out of twelve games played. Season of 1924 The football season of 1924 was a failure as far as victories is concerned, yet. it cannot be considered a ( fui'.ure in every respect Experience ( had been gained in each game, and valuable material was uncovered for the next team. Prying off the lid of the '34-'25 basketball season was somewhat , more successful than a similar event in football. Father Peters, manager, . arranged a schedule of twenty games , These included Pennville, C. C. H. S., Cathedral of Indianapolis and others , of importance. The first game with , Pennville was a thriller, but DC H.S. proved itself winner by the close score of 19-18. At thia game the boys displayed new uniforms of green and gold. This season proved to be the most successful ever played by the warriors of the green and gold- They came through a series of 18 games, undefeated, the most brilliant record any school could wish for its team. Some of the victims of their prowess were: Pennville. St. Mary’s of Huntington, C. C. H. S., C. H. S. of Indianapolis. Gibault of Vincennes, St. Patrick's of Fort Wayne and Sts. Peter and Paul of Huntington. Enter National Tourney Since the team came through the season without a defeat, they were invited to compete in the National I Catholic Basketball Tournament, held in Chicago at Loyola University Local fans furnished the necessary 'funds for the trip. The players. 1 accompanied by Coach Conter and Father Peters, left for Chicago on 'the 2:22 A.M train Wednesday morning, March 15. Those who made the trip were E. Christen, R. Voglewede, B. Meyer, H. Holthouse. G. Laurent. F. Schulte, A. Voglewede, C. Gass and A. Wemhoff. Q. C. H. B. entered the tournament ■ unknown and unheralded- No one seemed to care about Decatur, nor think they had a chance. The team gained recognition and praise by winning its first game over last year's champions, Spaulding Institute of Peo/ia, Illinois, 24-22. Next, the ' team was scheduled to play St. Thomas Academy of St. Paul, who had been the favorites of the dopesters. The team rallied after trailing 8-5 at the end of the half and . came through with a 21-16 victory. The third opponents happened to be St Viator's College from Bourbonais, Illinois. This was a veiy interesting t tussle, and D. C. H. S. again proved , itself the better team, leading in the final scorer 18-12. Finally came the St. Mels game, I which proved fatal to the D. C- H. S.

boys, who were becoming the favorites of the dopesters The local lads -were far In the lead when Lady Luck frowned upon them and put Gass out of the game with a sprained ankle. The team was lost without Gass. Their opponents took advantage of the lack of defence and added six points to their score. Witli twelve seconds to play, they tied the score 11-11. This made a she-minute overtime period necessary. St. Mel’s, hot from their rally, scored the win ning two points. This gave St. Mels the game as they prevented D. C. H I S from scoring again. This defeat was the first suffered by the locals in twenty-two games. It was a heartbreaking defeat for both fans and players, but everyone in "the old home town" was more than satisfied and proud of the wonderful ( record made by the wearers of the greeu and gold. Too much praise could hardly be given to this team when one considers that the many teams represented schools with an enrollment of several hundred boys. D.. C. H S . had twenty-eight boys last year. The girls, also, had « successful season in 1934-25. Although greatly outweighed and often smaller in stature, they defeated eight ot twelve, opponents. They lost only one play-| er, G. Smith, by graduation, so that they are confident of having an allstar team this season. The boys have not organized a football team this year, because of a lack of players and no definitely arranged schedule. However, they , are anxiously awaiting pracitce in the new gymnasium which will probably start next week. The outlook I for a successful basketball season is bright. Three fint string men. - Voglejwede, Holthouse and Christen and two subs, Schulte and Laurent, were lost by graduation. Nevertheless. D. C. H. S. with veterans, Gass. Meyer, Wemhoff and A. Voglewede; hopes to establish such' a record as will justify their entering the National Catholic Tournament again n£xt Peters has already arranged many his work as director, and Father March. Coach Conter will continue games with prominent Catholic high school teams. SCHOOL HAS 13 TEACHERS A very important factor in the development of St. Joseph's School is Ils efficient and self-sacrificing teachers. In 1881, St. Mary's Parish was gladdened by the arrival of tour pioneer- teachers of the Sisters of St. Agnes, through whose untiring efforts, St. Joseph's School was given a firm foundation on the field of education. Prominent among these is Sr. Aloysia. who saw the development of the school through 38 years of struggles and hardships. Although she is to longer here, having left Decatur in 1919, she has been spared long enough to view the grand outcome of her humble efforts. The parish is happy to be able to greet her on this occasion while she is visiting here. Sr. Borgia, another pioneer teacher, h»s, until recently, been active in the

’cause of education, but owing to a serious iWnesH, she is now confined In St. Agnes Hospital, at Fond du Lac, Wisconsin. Hearty wishes are extend- 1 ed for iter speedy recovery. Sr. Augustine, a third member of the little bnnd, passed to her reward, after 54 years of faithful labor in the service of God. Sr. Euphrosfne. the last of the four > pioneers, now located at St. Agnes; Convent, Fond du laic. Wisconsin, after a life time of endeavor spent In tl.e educational field. I As St. Jospeh's School increased in 'size and move pupils were admitted,! there was a demand for more teachers. At present the school boasts a staff of' > hirteen teachers, including eight grade | teachers, four high school teachers, a.id a supervisor of music. I Sr. Vera has been princlpal.of the ih gh school, as well as supervisor of I the grazles. during her five years of service here. Her three assistants du the high school department are Sr. 'Alnieda. Sr. Antonita, and Sr. Florentia. i Those teachers who have charge of the different grades are; Sr: Alfreds, Sr. Florentine, Sr. Winifred. Sr. •Wilhelmine. Sr Lueila, Sr. Eunice, Sr. Laufalne and Sr. Clara. I Sr. Clara is substituting as teacher fft the first grade for Sr. Sophia, who recently underwent an operation in iS;. Agnes’ Hospital. Fond du Lac, Wis Iconsin. Sr. Sophia has been here twelve years, and St. Joseph's School misses her familiar face among the ■ ranks of the teachers.
