August 2016

President’s Message Kama Carter, ’74

We have had a lot of excitement since our last newsletter came out in February. The Howe men’s basketball team made it to the State Finals for the first time at Bankers Life Field House. Although we fell to Lapel in a disap-pointing game, 59 to 37, those young men and Coach Mosi Barnes made history that night. On a high note, though, Hornet senior guard Kipp War-ren won the coveted Trester Mental Attitude Award. Normally I would tell you about what each of our committees has been up to over the past few months, but you will see individual committee reports elsewhere in this issue. By the time you read this, school will have already started (Can you be-lieve school began this year August 1!) Members of the Howe Hornets Face-book page should stay tuned for an-nouncements of events, fund-raisers, football game notices, etc. Let’s make this a great year and get involved. Whether your involvement is by signing up for the Kroger Commu-nity Rewards Program, joining us at the football games to cheer on our team, or helping to serve meals at our After-School Nutrition program, there are so many ways you can contribute to help our school. I want to thank all of the Howe alumni who have donated money, tan-gible items, and, just as importantly, their time to the school and the Alumni Association. Your contributions are so very much appreciated. Until next time…

COMMITTEE REPORTS Scholarship Committee Dan Kaga, Chairperson The Howe 400 Club, a group of parents who supported Hornet sports and activities, anticipating the likelihood the school would be closed at the end of the spring semester, June 1995, planned to disband and had asked the Association to administer the club’s scholarship program, which had for years awarded scholarships to outstanding seniors who had participated in at least one varsity sport and had evidence of participation in school or community activities. The 400 Club scholarships were first administered by the Directors and then turned over to the Scholarship Committee. The Scholarship Committee had its origins twenty years ago when the Directors of the Association, after the school was closed, decided “to keep alive” the name of Thomas Carr Howe High School by establishing a program of scholarships to be awarded to “legacy” applicants, graduating seniors from Marion County high schools who were children or grandchil-dren of Howe graduates. When the school reopened in 2002 and eventually had a senior class in 2006, the Association’s scholarships included “legacy” graduates and Howe graduates. The “legacy” schol-arships ended in 2014; since that time the Association schol-arships have been restricted to Howe graduates. Since 1997 awards have been made to 193 students. Responsibilities of the Scholarship Committee--Dan Kaga and Zed Day--have included monitoring the scholarship appli-cation and selection process and recommending to the Direc-tors the award recipients. Ways and Means Committee Roger Marchal, Chairperson This group is responsible for raising monies to cover the general expenses of the Association. We do this by selling Howe merchandise, i.e., t-shirts, sweatshirts, etc., at events such as the Block Party, Irvington Halloween Festival, and Howe class reunions. Items are also sold through our on-line store--www.mkt.com/howealumni---which was created by Jay Williamson. Many Board members volunteer to sell mer-chandise at community events, and Loren Seils, Dan Kaga, and Roger Marchal are the mainstays of the Association sales force at class reunions. Fund Raising Committee Jay Williamson, Chairperson We continue to receive checks from Kroger as part of their community outreach program. So far this year we have re-ceived $827.23 from your purchases at Kroger. The Associa-tion receives 1% of your purchase. (Summer barbecues are coming up, so please link your Kroger card to their Commu-nity Rewards program. Instructions are on p. 5.) Our big fund-raising event was May 5. The Howe to Learn Reception at Benton House was completely sold out. (We had a limit of 50 participants, the capacity of the historic Irvington mansion.) Our goal was to raise $3,500; our net proceeds are $6,615. We were able to get everything donated with the exception of table rentals. Donors: Benton House (venue), Amanda Lump-kin (food), Valerie Wilson (graphic design), Ryan and Kayla Wilson (music), Monarch Beverage (beer/wine).

Event sponsors were Charter Schools USA, Fred Green, ’56; Platinum sponsor Jim Adams, ’70; Gold sponsor Lee Allison, ’79, and Table sponsors Councilwoman Susie Cordi, Jane Pauley Community Medical Center, Nova Home Inspec-tions, Freedom Mortgage, and RJE Business Interiors. Helpers, besides the people and businesses that stepped up to make the event possible, included Sandy Pollard, Debi Shank, Judy Breitzke, Melissa Gallant, Amanda Williamson, and Caryn Williamson. We’ve also added some new items--such as hooded sweat-shirt and Howe Pride pins--to our on-line store (www.mkt.com/howealumni. And, a real oldie-but-goodie item, original locker tags that were removed when the school was renovated with new lockers are available. Own your old locker tag, a piece of Howe history! After-School Nutrition Committee Zed Day, Chairperson One of the major initiatives of the Association this school year has been providing a hot, healthy after-school meal to many Howe students who have after school activities and may not be able to go home in time for dinner. The Howe After-school Meals Program started during the fall semester and initially served on Fridays the football team, the cheerleaders, band members, students receiving tutoring, and students in-volved in other extracurricular activities. After the football season, we moved the meals program to Wednesdays for basketball and other sports teams, the 21st Century Program students, and JROTC cadets. Usually 45-60 students and staff were served each week. During last school year more than 1,600 meals were provided Howe students. The program was provided free of charge by the Second Helpings organization, which is dedicated to rescuing, repur-posing, and redistributing food from many Indianapolis res-taurants, grocery chains, and food wholesalers. Each year Second Helpings provides approximately one million meals to 75+ agencies and schools throughout central Indiana. Association members Jim Kelly, ’75, and Zed Day, ’58, facilitated the development of a Memorandum of Understand-ing (MOU) among Howe, Charter Schools USA, and Second Helpings that made Howe students eligible for these after-school meals. Other Association members who served these meals were Debi (Williamson) Shank, ’75; Lee Allison, ’79; Barbara (Finke) Johnson, ’67, Judie (Disher) Breitzke, ’57. We plan to update the MOU over the summer months to be able to continue the program during the next school year. We feel the program is an important element in the Associa-tion’s effort to work more closely with the school.

HOWE TRIVIA Some things you might not know about your school…

The Thomas Carr Howe High School site was obtained for $30,700 in 1928. In September 1936 the Marion County Board of Tax Adjustment approved the Indianapolis Board of School Commissioners’ request for an assessment to cover the erection of a new high school in Irvington. In November of the same year the Indiana State Tax Board gave its approv-al to the assessment. A week later IPS made application with PWA for a grant of $202,500 to aid in construction. IPS approved architectural plans on April 27, 1937. (Original architect’s plans are labeled “Irvington High School.” But Howe is outside Irvington, which has Emerson Avenue as its western boundary.) Bids for construction were received a month later. On May 25 the school was named for Thomas Carr Howe. On May 26, 1937, Howe ground-breaking ceremony took place; the first shovel of dirt turned for construction two days later, May 28, 1937. Building is completed in less than one year and opens for students’ first day September 6,1938. Estimated final cost: $480,000. There was no bridge over Pleasant Run until the middle of the fall semester; the projected concrete vehicle bridge over the stream was never built, nor was the Pennsylvania Railroad underpass for students from the School 82 area. That fall Howe had an enrollment of 433 students, some sophomores from other city high schools and freshmen from Schools 3, 57, 58, 62, 78, 82, and 85. Those elementary schools became Howe‘s “feeder” schools. The sophomores of that year later provided Howe’s first graduating seniors in 1941, a class of 91 students. Representatives from the 13 roll rooms made up the Stu-dent Council. One of first items of business was the selection of school colors. Brown and gold won out over maroon and white, which were “too much like Manual’s red and white.” The school mascot was chosen to be the Howe Hornet, which

was “feisty.” (That Beech Grove had been the Hornets since 1931, when BG dropped “Yellow Jackets,” was no concern.) The first pep session was outside on the Tower steps. (No room inside the building for that large a group.) Construction of the first addition project, the cafeteria and gymnasium, began Summer 1939. Completion was scheduled for January 1940, but frigid weather and construction delays caused the project to be finished in May 1940. Cross County and Track were the first sports teams. The playing field and track, covered with tree stumps, were yet to be finished. The first cafeteria was in Room 127 (later the Library.) Howe cafeteria prices in 1939: hamburger, 5 cents; milk, 3 cents. Rooms 126 and 128 were used for cafeteria seating. School 57 was the site of the Howe Festival of Music May 1939. There was no place yet large enough in the building for a public program. The call-out for boys basketball--freshman and reserve teams--was November 2,1939. Varsity games were scheduled for the 1939-1940 season with all-away games. The Hornets home floor was Room 227-229, a third-floor gymnasium with “standing capacity” of 60. Irvington Presbyterian Church gymnasium was a practice facility. Howe’s first varsity basketball team had 13 players, of whom six were listed at 5’ 10” or taller, and three of the play-ers weighed in at over 155 pounds. (Carl Barnes, a Hornet reliable scorer, was 5’ 6” and weighed 125 pounds.) The boys basketball program began in the new gym No-vember 29, 1940, with a victory over Broad Ripple, 25-17. The reserves won that night as well, 17-12. “The Howe Loyalty” originally had the last line of “The honor and glory ever lasting; We’ll praise thy courage daunt-less evermore; Oh, hail our school, Rah!” Later, the line went “O hail Howe High!” No “Oh,” no “Rah!” All-school social events during the first years were sock hops. Tickets, 15-cents, gave admission to Halloween Hop, Thanksgiving Turkey Trot, Doomsday Dance (the date report cards were issued), Hatchet Hop, Backboard Bounce, Hur-dlers’ Hop, which helped support the athletic fund.

Members of the Class of 1966 gathered on the bleachers of the South Gym as part of the school tour, June 11. Testimonial: The bleachers were as hard, maybe harder, than they were during the Hornet basketball games. The weekend reunion concluded with a get-together evening at the Indianapolis Marriott.
