Narrative:
We were doing traffic pattern work and making radio calls in the pattern. After a go-around; we turned into the crosswind after calling the go-around on CTAF. After we turned crosswind for runway 15; we noticed a high-wing plane on the 45 entry; basically on the downwind at that point. No radio calls were made by that aircraft. As I made another radio call; that aircraft called on the downwind for rwy 15. I had to take evasive action to avoid him; and rejoin the pattern. Both aircraft exchanged radio transmissions regarding the incident. That pilot seemed to simply ignore the fact that other planes were in the pattern; refusing to give way to my aircraft; which was already in the pattern. He claims that since some pilots don't use radios that I should keep an eye out for other airplanes. He did have a radio; and chose not to use it appropriately; and chose not to give way to aircraft in the pattern; despite him having the better perspective coming from outside and presumably monitoring the frequency for my transmissions.
