Page Eight CHARLES TRACY “Chuck” Tracy is one gentleman who doesn’t seem to pre- fer blondes. Black hair and blue eyes appeal more to him. “Chuck” played a mighty good game at center in football this year and will be missed on next year’s team. He is also Senior Class president. DOROTHY GOCKENBACH “Dot’s” struggles to let her hair grow were a source of amusement to us all, but she finally bobbed it again. Although she has only been with us two years, in this time she has made a name for herself in the school. This year she is secretary of our class, and a member of the debating team. “Barney is one of those cheerful people who can always see, “the silver lining,” and consequently he always has a smile for everyone. No game, be it football, basketball, or tenn's could possibly be a success without “Barney” on the side- lines. Is he a handy person to have around? Well I should say so. No wonder they call him “a jolly good fellow.” JANE RODERICK Friends, let me introduce to you a likeable young lady with friendly brown eyes and a winning smile (Oh, what a row of white teeth). Jane is one of those all-around girls— doing well in a great many things. This together with her lovable characteristics make her a delightful companion and friend. Her four years as member of the Honor Club and her record in offices and organizations mark her as one of high mentality, a faithful worker, and a person of wide interests. Hats off to a fine girl, a good sport and a student whom Bexley is proud to have. ARCH HOUSTLE Arch Houstle spent most of his time asking us for our dues. He was a valuable member of the debating team and got practice for debating in his classes (ask M:ss Taylor). In his job as Business Manager of the Annual, Arch proved himself very efficient. He was also president of the Spanish Club this year. Throughout his school career he has been an honor student. Archie doesn’t seem to want to leave Bexley High very much and “those who know” believe that the reason is contained in the Junior Class. RALPH BARNETT OJTCi VIVIAN BECK One of the youngest members of our class—a slight girl with brown eyes and black curly hair—has quietly and modest- ly walked away with the Highest Honors. We feel that Vivian deserves every bit of praise that she receives—and more. Her capacity for knowledge and her willingness to strive for her goal will surely bring her due reward. Vivian is associated with the Torch Staff, the Forum, the Honor Club, and the Girl Reserves. HENRIETTA BUSCH Pluck and perseverance go a long way. So it was with Hen; even after her lengthening locks refused to stay up during one of our most exciting basketball games she never vowed revenge by having the brown waves shortened again. By experience in a number of operettas, the Orchestra, Glee Club, and music group of the Girl Reserves, Hen will soon be fully prepared to make her debut on the violinist’s concert stage. As sincere friends, the class of ’28 sort o’ feels that Hen might give each of us a “comp” or two in the orchestra circle that evening. GLADYS CHRISTIAN Gladys’ never-failing smile and readiness to help others at all times are two of her outstanding characteristics. She is full of fun and never seems downhearted. She has been popu- lar with everyone, especially the basketball girls, to whom she has devoted much of her time. HUGH CURRAN Good things come in small packages and “Hugh” proved no exception to the rule. One of Bexley’s typewriters will certainly be lonesome for “Hugh” next year. Bexley is only sorry “Hugh” waited until his senior year to come from South Hi and join our ranks. TOM DAVIS “Tommy” is the person who gets the credit for naming our school paper, “The Torch.” An observer around the high school would have seen Tommy’s black head dashing up for football and basketball practice a great many times during his stay at Bexley. Glee Club and Spanish Club also claim our Tom’s time. “No sense in sitting still,” Tom says. WILLIAM DIEHL “Bill” always manages to appear calm and collected as lie pulls cookies from his pockets and slowly makes them disappear. “Cookies are a stimulant for the brain,” Bill says. They certainly must do something for he surely does get those adds for The Torch. Football, basketball, tennis, golf and Glee Club all claim him as a member of their ranks. The reason—Bill can work and still look happy. KATHERINE ENGLEHART Katherine Englehart—Her clever remarks often cause con- siderable amusement. Dependability and willingness to help others are two traits that are admired by all, and Katherine is the fortunate possessor of both. She is pleasant at all times, and ready for fun, in addition to standing high in her studies. She was a member of the Glee Club of ’26, ’27 and ’28. She was also a member of the Dramatics Club and Honor Club. BRUCE GEBHARDT Bruce is one person who has discovered the value of play- ing a saxaphone. He received most of his practice while helping out the orchestra and band. A broken collar-bone received in his first game ruined his chances for football. Tough luck, Bruce. But he still smiles as he roams about school and occasionally stoops to enter a room. Door-ways really should be higher, in order to please Bruce. BERNARD GRAVES Bernard was never, never known to shirk except it he from work. But a chance for an argument will find him right there and “rarin’ to go.” Civics would lose a lot of its interest without Bernard, and the Dramatic Club its chief comedian. What would Bexley do without him? ERNA HART Erna Hart—a slim, dark-eyed blackhaired girl, small, hut oh! the influence these small folks can wield (take for in- stance Napoleon). By her lovable ways, Erna has won for herself hosts of friends. Is there anyone who has not re- ceived one of her friendly smiles from her merry black eyes? Her mental motto seems to be “Look only for the good points in every one,” because Erna always has a good word for all. She also takes an outstanding part in school affairs. EILEEN HEMPSTEAD From Reynoldsburg came Eileen—full of life and pep. One of the first tlvngs she did was to become a member of the Girls’ Basketball Squad. We, her classmates, know her for a real girl—a real booster and a good sport. Her name is among those who are members of the Girl Reserve Club. DOROTHY KELLEY A girl with dark brown hair, winn’ng eyes and slender figure, whose charms are many and whose character is un- questioned. Her voice is “gentle and low” an excellent thing in woman. “Dot” is one of our most accomplished graduates, and is loved for her unhesitating service. As editor of The Torch and The Annual, and President of School, and The Girl Reserves, she has served faithfully and successfully. In addi- tion to her outside activities, she has maintained a high stand- ing in scholarship. WILMA KERSCHNER A student came to the Senior Class from Central Hi this year. It was not long before her pleasant manner and friendliness won her many friends. Our newly acquired friend is “that sweet Wilma Kerschner.” CLARA FRANCES KETNER She of the trim figure, with a small charming face, framed in a wealth of brown hair, that’s “our Francie.” If just “being yourself”—natural at all times is the rarest of' all charms, she ranks first. But not only that—besides being a clever manipulator of the sphere on the basketball court— (team member ’26, ’27, ’28) she skillfully wields the tennis racket. Francie takes an active part in school affairs, and is a prominent member of the Girl Reserves, being Chairman of the Entertainment Committee in ’28. Last but not least she is a loyal and sincere friend of true blue. STEWART HIRSCH ;eh is one of tbe best all-around athletes in the He was the captain of the football team, and running guard in basketball. He catches on team. Stewart is not only good in sports, but nake a successful business man. He was business of the Torch, and advertising manager of the Annual. K ATI IERINE KLINGBEIL A head of glorious dark brown curls—deep blue eyes— slim figure—a dash of daring—a winning frankness and im- pulsiveness—a real girl full of life and fun is “Kay” Klingbeil. She is active in the artistic circles of the school as the Art Editor of the Torch and the Annual of ’28. She played a “darn fine” game as guard on the Girls’ Basketball team this year. She is also a member of the Girl Reserve organiza- tion. What a picture she makes as she comes happily down the street in her red outfit! LAWRENCE LAMP Lawrence is handy man and general electrician for people in distress. Anything from fixing the lights on the Senior Christmas Tree to helping with a movie, finds “Lampy” the man for the job. A small pocket comb seems to be his most valuable possession. But then, Lampys’ hair certainly shows the results. ROBERT LONG “The home-room will please come to order,” these are the well-remembered words of “Bob” at the opening of the Senior home-room meetings. For in “Bob’s” short stay be easily won many lasting friends with bis cheerful disposition. Bob is also a loyal supporter of the Honor Roll. ELEANOR LUDWIG Five foot-two with eyes of blue—a sunny smile—just “chuck full” o’ pep and vitality—that’s “El” Ludwig (if you do not believe us—ask the boys). For three years, at regular position of Running Center, she has managed to keep her opponents “stepping lively” with her swiftness and agility on the basketball floor. From basketball we go to music—“El” plays the violin in those famous “Ludwig Sister Duets.” This little versatile person is a real live wire—you betcha! ROGER McNICHOLS Roger is a valuable addition to the Senior Class. Without him, the number of boys on the Honor Roll would be con- siderably smaller. Roger does not say a great deal but then, quality was always better than quantity. Someday we shall expect to see him Ambassador to Spain. HAROLD MARSH Harold says little but thinks much. In his quiet, unassum- ing way he has done a great deal to boost Bexley. During football season he made a good many of “Hirsch’s” long passes good for a touch-down. Besides playing on the football team he has gone out for baseball and track. Quiet but mighty that’s Harold. KATHERINE MURRAY A fine girl—a fine student—a fine worker—a great booster, is “Pete” Murray with her jet black hair, her brown eyes, her pleasing smile, and that “slow, southern drawl.” The follow- ing affiliations are proud to have such a member as “Pete”— Honor Club, Glee Club, Spanish Club, Torch Staff, and Girl Reserves. “Pete” who is the service chairman in the Girl Re- serve Club has done splendid work all year and has set a fine example for the one who will take her place. A toast—to “Pete” Murray! MORRIS MATTLIN Morris made a splendid villian in “The Rose of Tokio,” although he is far from being a villian in everyday life. The baseball team found him an efficient manager while the Debate team recognized him as a valuable addition. A steady depend- able youth like Morris will make an upright and honored man for the future. LOUISE MILLER Do people prefer blonds? In the case of Louise who is a very likeable one—we should certainly say so. Everyday she carries the same congenial and friendly disposition around with her. For two years Louise played on the basketball team —always doing her best in a sportsmanlike way. Along with her other activities Louise has always been a fine worker in the Girl Reserve Club. I think we may close by saying: (Marty knows a good thing when he sees Her) LAWRENCE MOYER Oh, where, and oh, where, would our football team have gone—if “Bus” our quarterback hadn’t always been guarding from the lookout tower, ever prepared to catch the signal and send aid immediately. Moyer’s proof enough, that it’s not al- ways the tall lanky one that covers yardage quickly—the short person isn’t so top heavy and wobbly. Keen minds are set to work not only in the great out-of-doors, but also when the Home Room needs give a program. “Bus” must put down precisely and with exactness every thought and action therein, “be it ever so humble,” for he’s our secretary ALMA OBENLAND She looks at life with laughing eyes and proceeds to enjoy herself to the full extent. Alma is one of Bexley’s biggest Boosters. Football, baseball, basketball, or whate’er game it may be—you can always see her among the loyal rooters. Alma belongs to the Girl Reserve Club and to the Girls Glee Club. LEWIS RUSSELL A fast runner, “holder of that line,” and an exact shooter (of baskets)—in other words, “Louie” is a real athlete, a typical “Johnny on the spot.” Many an end standing hair calmly fell in position again when “Louie” had the ball; shot, and waited till it dropped through the net. He’s not a wire charged with sport electricity alone; for his currents can be found running in the Glee Club, school plays, and various daily classes. With all his knowledge of Sociology we’re sure “it won’t be long” till “Louie”, the Mayor of Bexley, will be en- forcing the law: Paperwads may be thrown provided they are constructed of invisible material only. EDWARD SCHLEZINGER “Ed” was a loyal supporter of Bexley’s band, and also gives promise of being an actor. His main weakness is his hair, as he is always trying to keep it combed. Despite this fact he is always ready to help the needy in his own cheerful way. ELOUISE PARK What would become of this world of Bexley High if it were not for harmony? Some of its surface would cave in and the well rounded sphere would appear rough hewn. Elouise keeps the surface smooth and shining. Our Glee Clubs find no discord when the accompaniment comes from her well trained fingers, the Girl Reserves sing without fear of col- lapse, the pep and success of operettas come from her key board, and even our Friday afternoon movies with the melody background find their way to the hearts of school-goers. Also to Elouise belongs the best honor for those long periods of practice seldom given deserving praise. RUTH PHALOR Her charming smile, is like the sunshine, gleaming from the clouds. Ruth’s sweet personality is felt among all her friends. She is quite a clever actress, having taken part in the three operettas, “Miss Bob White,” “Springtime” and “The Rose of Tokio.” She is a rather versatile sort of person, as she was an Honor Student of ’27 and is a member of the Torch Staff of ’28. She is also a member of the Debate Team of ’28 and a Girl Reserve. ELSIE SCHNEIDER No, it’s not the “hunt and pick” method with Elsie. If it were, all those numerous and brightest stars of the typing heaven wouldn’t be in her possession. As a full fledged four year member of the Honor Club we know Elsie doesn’t use this method in ‘ running off” her lessons. An earnest working Girl Reserve, a faithful Glee Club member, one of groups in plays, and a staunch cheerer at all the games makes for a broad minded far reaching character. Elsie makes a worthy life friend, with “an eye for business,” especially when it comes to rescuing pals from auto paths on High street. fr, U, SIMON SCULLER “Si” is the question box of the Senior class, and is always passing out candy. In his 1 and y2 years at Bexley, he has made many friends. Through the efforts of himself and his Chevrolet he has been a great benefactor to the school and the Annual Staff. CATHARINE SINGER Her curly black hair is the admiration of all who view it, but not only that—the sweetness of her disposition is the pre- dominant note of her entire character. Although “Kitty” left Bexley Hi in her freshman year, we are delighted to have her come back with us to graduate. She is a very skillful basket- ball player as elusive and quick in her movements as a “horse on a cold day.” “Katy” played forward on our team in ’28. Besides this she is very active in other affairs. She is a mem- ber of the Girl Reserves, an Honor Student, and Society Editor of the Annual. HELEN WANNEMACHER Helen is a real booster for Bexley High School, both in her scholastic standing, which ranks among the highest, and in her fine school spirit. Her love of wholesome fun and her high ideals make her a genuine person—a true friend. Helen belongs to the Girl Reserves, the Forum, the Glee Club, and the Honor Club. It may be interesting for you to know that she has been on tbe Honor Roll almost every month of her four years in High School—a record to be proud of! HELEN WILDERMUTH Few and far apart are the members of the Capable Ever Ready Club. We’re very proud that our class has a true rep- resentative of this society among us. Whatever may be the task—Associate Editor of the Torch, or the Annual, soloist for musical programs, a helping friend to those in need, Helen always may be found completing them with the willingness and energy with which she had accepted them. What is more by ber cheerful disposition and winning smiles many true and lasting friends have been made. If Helen could but establish a bureau of aid in writing notes, she would help many a bashful Pierrot in winning his only Pierrette. PHIL EPPINS We have been told, “One should be very industrious in his youth.” Phil lives doubly well by this bit of advice. For besides taking some studies toward graduation in Bexley High he is attending Capital University Music School. Here he is taking a full music course. We gather from glimpses of titles on the covers of his music that the great musicians which many of us have yet to study, Phil already enjoys immensely. orcA , MARGARET WILLEY “Marge” is a gentle modest girl. Whatever work she pur- sues is done faithfully and thoroughly. Her ability as a Typist has won her a place both on the Torch and the Annual Staffs. Underneath her reserve you will find a very fine per- son full of a quiet fun. More power to her—so faithful, gentle, and modest! JAMES ZUBER Jimmy makes an ever faithful member of “The Three Musketeers” Society which daily at twelve thirty may be found bravely pursuing “El Capitan Veneno,” in the forest of registration. Nor does his path lead him only to the Bexley Spanish Club. It winds through the football meadow, among the basketball hills, and over the school council plains. Jimmy wouldn’t admit it, but, with a friendly disposition, a mind of wit, and—good looks, he has regulated many heart clocks to run at a greater speed than normal. EDMUND POWERS Why Edmund “only came and went” is explained when we tell you in entering Bexley from Schenley Hi, Pittsburg, in September by February he had tucked in his coat pocket enough credits to enter college. A rumor was found floating through the halls, that since then “Ed” has been diligently examining the French language. By June he’ll be back all prepared to give Bexley, “Au Revoir” in the latest French accent. “Reflections” High School days! What happiness Pursuing elusive knowledge; What gayety Planning for college; No worries Only happiness and joy; No duties Just the pursuit of life so coy; Happy companions Vibrant youth—trifling away Idle hours; Day of sunshine We think today— They are here to stay; But tomorrow life Will be a strife And our high school days Will be a memory— Just a shining beckoning memory.

In future years of thee we’ll dream And waking thoughts of thee may be; Whate’er the future brings to us O may we not dishonor thee. II But time stays not, now we must go Courage and cheer may we maintain The star of hope may it e’er shine That future tasks seem not in vain. Then “Onward, Upward” be our aim And may our lives be pure and true. Untarnished and as free from stain As our fair colors, white and blue, Chorus Oh, classmates all, dear classmates all, The time has come when we must part But may the hands of time ne’er dim The mem’ries dear to each one’s heart. —Catharine Singer. Pilgrims of the Ages Whence and whither, jolly pilgrims Whither ride ye forth today? That like kings ye canter, canter, canter on the King’s highway. What your quest and what your token Be they bells or blooms ye wear Proud and Princely are your trappings. Can ye do the deeds ye dare? Nay, but who be ye who asks us. Up and with us as we ride, The day is young, our hearts are free Our quest we do not hide. We be piligrims of the ages With a world to win or lose. We be piligrims of the ages On a quest we mean to win. We seek a Holy City, We are builders for the King. What are the tokens? They be tokens Of the colors white and blue, You’ll find them in the garden In the early morning dew, You’ll find them in the wideness Of the great far reaching sky, In the flashing wings of blue birds As they mount on high. Blue for truth and white for honor These the tokens that we bring As we canter, canter, canter On the highway of the King With the truth of all the ages, With the brave of all the earth, We dare the way we have chosen, We build a thing of worth, Pressing by the landmarks Of the way our fathers went. Dauntless, fearless unrelenting, All our will to this is bent. We be pilgrims of the ages On a quest we mean to win, We seek the Holy City We are builders for the King. —Unknown.

Laughter I found then, the rare gift of laughter, Beauty I saw in a thousand fair things; But roses were fading and smiles were forgotten; I wept bitter tears which a shattered hope brings. Then like ephemeral showers of summer Softly envelop with mist every mound, Came the sweet knowledge—the soul, of all treasures. Is the most beautiful gift to be found. Still I love beauty of verse and of language, Beauty of bracelets, of trinkets and rings. Fragrance of roses hushed under the starlight, Loveliness of the inanimate things— None of these trifles in highest perfection Which gentle gods with compassion might send Equals the matchless and exquisite beauty Of the heart and the soul of a friend. —Ruth Smith, ’29.

The question for debate was, “Resolved that the Direct Pri- mary System of voting should be abolished in the United States.” Those who defended the affirmative side at South were Dorothy Gockenbach, Ruth Phalor and Helen Wildermuth. Those who defended the negative side of the question at home were Dorothy Kelley, Morris Mattlin, and Arch Houstle. Paul Taber, a mem- ber of the affirmative team, was unable to participate in the Debate because of illness. His place was filled by Helen Wildermuth. The Judges’ decisions at both schools favored Bexley.

A constitution has been adopted which provides for dues, time of meeting, membership and the usual things which combine to make a real club. Some very interesting meetings have been held during the course of this year —the meetings being held the third Wednesday in each month. So far, two public appearances have been made—the first having been held jointly with the Girl Reserves in the form of an Armistice Program—the second, an attractive dance representing Roman Water Girls, presented on the same night with “The Playgoers” a play given by the Dramatic Class.

JULIA KROMER....................... In all activities the club tried to present pro- grams which would tend to stimulate a greater in- terest in the people and customs of Spain and Latin America. A knowledge of Spanish verbs is quite necessary, but studying them is apt to be- come tiresome if we do not know that there is a good reason for it. With this idea in mind the club secured two speakers in the course of the year who were of Spanish birth, to talk to the members. The first was Senorita Carman Segarra of East High School, Columbus. She was born in Porto Rico, and has traveled over a good part of Mexico and North America. Her talk was very interesting as it taught us much new about the Spanish countries. The other speaker was Senora Gutierrez of Capital University. She told us chiefly about the Page Forty-six ................................President .........................Vice President ...................Secretary-T reasurer customs of Spain itself, of the homes, songs, dances, and bull fights. Her talk was given in Spanish and we found it very inspiring to dis- cover that we could understand the language easily when spoken by some one other than the instructor. During the year a constitution was adopted and published along with the club songs, “El Himno Nacional de Espana” and “Bolero,” in a little booklet, decorated with the Spanish coat of arms. These songs were sung at every meeting and were memorized by the members. Now at the end of the year we feel that the Spanish Club has filled a real need in our schjool life by making our Spanish course more interest- ing, and we hope that it will do the same for others in the years to come.

Page Forty-nine Liceat Me Ministrare I do not ask my life to be the measured tread Of normal life—the downy stuffed bed, Nor to be crammed and fed Till I am full—instead I only plea Let me wear out my life like a loved garment, thread by thread. What if it falls at length a torn and faded shred? For who will notice me, A little raveling on the carpet stretched upon the stairs of life? Why should I dread And why refuse That it be gathered up or crammed away with other rags? Incarnate I may serve another use— A soft clean cloth to polish up the stars or wipe away The midst from off the clouds that have been hard at play. —Selma Hamann. Page Fifty The Awakening It came so suddenly—the awakening. Bonnie Hanford looking at the three white cards in her hands flung them angrily away from her with a disgusted, half- despairing shrug of her shoulders and buried her face in her hands. “Whats the matter?” her mother looking up from the Ladies’ Home Journal had caught the troubled gesture. “Nothing” Bonnie’s answer was hardly audible. An expectant pause followed and Bonnie’s voice broke the silence. “O, mother, I am the dumbest thing on earth. I’ve just found out something that I should have known three years ago. Thank goodness I didn’t wait another year to wake up. Look at these Report Cards, I know you’ve seen them before but don’t they almost slay you?” “You have good grades in English” returned her mother in a hopeful voice tinged with a bit of pride. “Yes but look at the rest of the card—you can’t miss seeing the darling C’s and the adorable B’s” a hint of sarcasm and bitterness showed in Bonnie’s voice. The mother quietly resumed her reading and Bonnie continued to stare into space with a look intermixed with resolve and disgust. Finally she arose, kissed her mother and went upstairs. A door slammed. She had gone to bed. All this happened in the last week of August. In September Bonnie started her Senior year at High School. And what a different year it was from the pre- ceding years ! It was Bonnie’s year. Every month brought her an Honor Card. Although she was not a member of the Lantern Staff each weekly issue carried an article written by Bonnie. Then came the selection of the Annual Staff—and lo!—Bonnie was chosen Art Editor. Aside from her school work Bonnie had been playing on the Girls’ Basketball team and had won a place on the Tennis team. In the senior play Bonnie won a lot of praise for her fine portrayal of her character. On commencement night Bonnie—a fine scholar—a wonderful sport—an awakened girl sat very happily among the many graduates. She had made her last year count for something. Now you may ask, “What caused the sudden change all of a sudden? This is the answer. On that night in August, the girl who had passed three years, in High School, was looking at her grade cards—and they did not satisfy her. So right then and there—she resolved to make good for lost time. Night after night she studied faithfully and won a place in the Honor Club. In the meantime her scholastic standing brought other honors her way—the reward of virtue. Are you in the same boat as Bonnie ? Have you been traveling along in the self-same pace for years managing to get fairly good grades but not doing your best ? If you have please wake up. It is just the question of waking now or awaking later and more abruptly. Bonnie advises you to study. E. H. Page Fifty-one “The Locket” Many peculiar tilings have happened to me, hut I believe none have been as strange or fantastic as the one I am about to relate. Since I was a small lad, I have had a peculiar passion for antiques, particularly has this craving been strong for articles dating back to the days of the Revolutionary War. My bachelor apartment is one conglomeration of bits of jewelry and furniture which I have picked up on my more or less extensive wan- derings. One afternoon in late spring, several years ago, I wandered into a dusty shop in a small town near Boston. I browsed around for a while finding nothing particularly remark- able until, as I was about to leave, I noticed a tray of trinkets which had hitherto escaped my notice. Being especially fond of old jewelry I paused and rummaged through the pile. There were many imitation pieces which I at once recognized the true value of and was about to give up hope of finding anything worth my time, when my eyes lighted upon a beaten silver locket. It was tarnished almost beyond recognition, but still its true value could be seen. I stood wrapped in thought for a moment, wondering whose fair throat had been burdoned by that heavy piece of exquisite silver. Running my finger around the edge in search of the spring that held it closed, an impatience to see what it contained enveloped me. The top snapped back with a rusty squeak and I stood trans- fixed upon seeing its contents. I am not a sentimental young man, but I must admit that my heart gave a bound and then a flutter as my eyes gazed into the depths of those wide innocent ones that looked up at me from the locket. Little chills chased themselves up and down my spine as I finally realized that it was only painted eyes into which I gazed. Finally pulling my attention away from their fasci- Page Fifty-two nating depths I gave a quick survey of the rest of the picture. Her face was of creamy white, a faint blush giving pale color to her cheeks. Her high forehead was clearly re- vealed below the mass of chestnut hair pillowed high upon her small head in the ac- cepted manner of those times. The painting was of only the head and shoulders, showing her white, column-like throat arched proudly above the lacy neck of her low-cut dress. In the other half of the locket rested a curl of that same chestnut hair. Improbable as it may seem it still was as lusterful and fresh as if its charming owner had just that moment severed it from her head. My gaze once more wandered back to those hazel eyes and I was lost to the world, until the shop keeper’s approach stirred me from my reverie. Willing to give anything to gain possession of this new found treasure I payed the price he first asked without the usual dickering over values, and in truth, I really believe he was disappointed at not having the customary argument. The rest of the day was spent in a dream. I only know that somehow it passed, and that night earlier than was my custom, I re- tired. It must have been shortly before midnight when I opened my eyes, fully awakened and in possession of all my senses. I had heard a faint silken rustle, and the soft measured tap of a tiny high heeled slipper coming across my room. I looked up and again found myself gazing transfixed into those same hazel eyes that had looked so bewitch- ingly out from the locket. I wasn’t surprised. It seemed as though I really had expected this unusual visit and had been waiting for it. As my eyes became more accustomed to the darkness, I noticed that her hand was flutter- ing at her throat, as though some familiar object were missing from it. She did not need to tell me that her search was for the locket, for that instant her eyes lighted upon it lying on a small table drawn close to my bed. With a quick motion she recovered it and had fastened it about her throat. Probably she read the disappointment in my eyes for she unclasped the chain and slowly opened the locket. From it, with nervous fingers, she extracted the painting. In her efforts to get it loose from the locket she tore one corner away. Then with a movement, be- witchingly shy, she placed it in my out- stretched hand. The instant my fingers touched the picture I knew no more. I awoke with a start, the sun was stream- ing through my window directly into my eyes. Instantly I remembered what had taken place and glanced down at my hand. There, just as she had placed it, lay the picture, with one of its corners missing. I started up and glanced around for the locket. It was gone! A frantic search revealed nothing. Whether this experience was fact or fancy I do not know, but still my friends remark over the exquisite beauty and charm of the youthful face which holds the honor position among my most treasured possessions. —Ruth M. Phalor. To a Senior Nor will it now be long Ere that that was a daily droning song Will be an echo Saddened and perhaps a sharpened prong That pricks, but it will grow To be a sweetened pain—a low refrain Much fraught with friends and memories attained. —Selma Hamann. 44 1 Gems When a bit of sunshine hit ye After passing of a cloud When a fit of laughter gits ye And ye’r spine is feelin’ proud, Don’t forget to up and fling it At a soul that’s feelin’ blue For the minit that ye sling it It’s a boomerang to you. —Capt. Jack Crawford. A picture is a poem without words. —Horace. “For love is life, and they who do not love Are not alive.

The spring air made me feel very drowsy. My weary brain fatigued with the trials of the next civics lesson, failed to function any longer and I was soon traversing the sweet realms of Dreamland. It was there that I came upon the most unusual—the most ideal high school ever conceived of. I was speeding along in “Elizabeth” (the lady Henry’s made out of Lizzie) over a marvelous road when I saw rising up among the trees on the slope of a hill, a big build- ing which looked exactly like a country club but as I slowed down at the entrance I saw on the stone posts the name “Bixby High School.” I turned in and whizzed gracefully along the winding road under the majestic maples. The school chauffeur (believe this or not) drove Elizabeth to the garage and I passed in the entrance. Such a school I never did see! At a quick glance I perceived an artistic and homelike atmosphere throughout the entire interior of the school. Upon the floor of the hall was a rich carpet and upon the walls beautiful pictures. One of the girls acting as a hostess showed me into one of the private rooms where the students kept their wraps, books, golf clubs, tennis rackets or anything which they owned. My charming little guide in- formed me that every student possessed one of these little rooms thus eliminating the use of lockers—which are rather bothersome any- how. Each registration room, three in all, looked to me like a small living room. There was no teacher in the room hut the students, reclining in easy chairs were quietly studying. At nine o’clock the strains of the piece “Among my Souvenirs” floated in the door. As the pupils glided and danced to their classes I was informed that the music which I was listening to came from the orchestra which took the place of class bell,—a selec- tion being played in between every class. The day being Monday the classwork was entirely composed of study for, you see, the work was arranged in alternate Work and Study days. This system entirely effaced Home Work—which really is quite unnec- essary. The music must have had a sooth- ing effect upon the students for every one of them were industriously absorbed in some work. There were no notes passed, no whispering, and no throwing of paper wads. The study hall was another one of those lounging rooms with easy chairs, a piano in one corner, an Orthophonic in the other, cheery drapes in the windows, and beautiful paintings, which, when inverted, revealed a black board. (Please remember this is a dream). At twelve-thirty classes were dismissed for the day and we were left to recreate our minds, bodies and spirits. The first thing, of course, was to satisfy our appetites (which were as large as usual). We rode up to the second floor on the elevator and dined in the School Dining room where the food and serv- ice were wonderful. In order to let our food settle we browsed around in the huge library enriching our minds with bits of philosophy, bits of humor, and listening to the canaries—four in all— singing as if they would burst with happiness. The rest of the afternoon was spent in physical exercise, which you will all agree, is quite as necessary as mental exercise. We played first two rousing sets of tennis and afterwards—not being a bit fatigued—we brought forth our golf clubs and played nine holes over the rolling course. When we came in from the game we donned bathing suits and plunged into the refreshing water in the swimming pool. When I hit my head on the bottom of the pool after a high dive I came slowly to my senses. The bell announcing the Seventh Period brought the everyday world back with a crash. What a dream it was!—E. H. Page Fifty-five orCj. Fantasy They say it is a giant tent That God has fastened down Upon the far horizon with tall trees Of emerald green and sapphire brown For pins, To keep his children in, For fear that we might tire of its blue He’s taken his long paint brush the East wind And splashed his turquoise canvas That overhanging vastness With gray white, black bulged clouds And silver needle shrouds of rain, And veils of wrinkled smoke from vagabonding train, A flock of rose cravat the sun oft wears at dawn, Or dainty negligee Of orchid that the evening dons at close of day, The canopy that lets the light come through And when the pins are bent— For earth children play roughly at their games sometimes and tear The canvas—I would like to peep just once outside.

An Apology for Industry After Reading Stevenson’s Apology for Idlers I really can see no reason at all in apologizing for Industry. I agree with Stevenson when he said, “The greatest difficulty with most subjects is to do them well;—may I not stop there—and then continue with his words which are also mine to you “therefore, please to remember this surely is an apology.” When I stop to think of it—I believe peo- ple should be a great deal industrious in their youth for it serves to develop the thinking process and also to keep them out of trouble. The main trouble in our “flaming youth” of today is that they have too much time to idle away. No offense—no offense—I do not mean all youth is too much idle—on the con- trary there are just as many young people of today truly absorbed in working out their future happiness in industry as there ever was. I also believe that those who have spent their life in idleness have not really lived. They have never felt the thrill of the inde- pendence which is the result of being self- supporting. In short—-they have missed the happiness in life. Imagine—if you possibly can—the effect on the world if every one suddenly decided that life was too short to labor any longer and stopped in the midst of their work to idle away the rest of their years. Stevenson says that extreme business is a symptom of deficient vitality—how about ex- treme idleness ? Extreme idleness is un- doubtedly as great a symptom of deficient vitality as business can ever be. Which of the two is worse ? I cannot say. Let us sup- pose that we place an extreme idler in some important office to do the work of an ex- tremely hard worker—what will be accom- plished? Not much. It is likely that he will roam around the room for an hour or so and after deliberating for at least a half an hour will ooze over to the window and gaze out at the streets below for an hour. At the close of the office hours we find him sleeping in the swivel chair with his feet propped up on the paper-covered desk. It is not only the person himself who is affected by idleness but also those with whom he lives. If he does not work, where are they to obtain the money to subsist in this cruel world? Moreover it is a poor type of man who will voluntarily sacrifice the means of happiness for his family in just being idle. There is a world of happiness in industry and a load of solace in it for one who has just passed through a great sorrow. Alas! for the one who idles away his time after a great loss—he is quite liable to go insane with all his time to think about what has happened to him. I have been thinking about Stevenson’s question, “And what, in God’s name, is all this bother about?” I have often wondered why we go on living? Why do we count so much on having a good time ? Why does suc- cess mean so much to some people ? Why are we here at all? The answer is this—Because there is a Power greater than we are which is drawing us toward our destiny. It is true we do not know why we are inspired to work, to create, to idle—but someplace, Someone does know evidently, and we cannot question that all our “bother” has wrought a great civilization rich with marvelous accomplish- ments. Without industry we would be in the same condition that we were thousands of years ago. We must “bother” in order to carry on the development. How can we be idle when there is an in- ward urge and inspiration which kindles our hearts and minds to do and dare. What the purpose of it all is—:we cannot know in this world—except from the promise of One who lived and loved and labored as we do—but it surely must be something worth while. Therefore be not idle! Let us “Make hay while the sun shines.”—E. H. Page Fifty-seven 'e- ( orcA i i Gems 9 ? There is a chord in every heart that has a sigh in it if touched aright—Ouida.

Hirsch, a fighting team along with the efficient man- agers, romped on in the path of football fame to gain the suburban Class B champion- ship for the second consecutive year. The Smith coached aggregation started oft smoothly winning in its first two attempts. The month of October, however, found the eleven wavering once, twice, three times as compared to one win. Then as if something had stirred them into heights far above their opponents, they chalked up wins in their last three games. This gained them by sheer fight and determination that happy feeling that a successful season had been completed. Those last three games taught the boys a lesson one must know in order to succeed. “Fight clean but fight hard!” It was this lesson that earned for the Bexley gridders such a good season as the past one surely was. You may gather from these reviews, some idea of Bexley success in the fall sport. BEXLEY vs. GAHANNA With a green and inexperienced team, Bexley came through the opening game with a hard fought 7 to 0 victory. The heat was detrimental to good football and the result was achieved by fight alone. Palmer contributed the lone touch- down. Page Fifty-nine BEXLEY vs. ST. MARY’S. With another week of practice, a more impressive win was marked up by the overwhelming score of 50 to 0. Hirsch and Palmer ran wild in piling up the mass of points. The Saints put up a stiff fight but to no avail. BEXLEY vs. LONDON. Here the first snag was struck. Something went wrong and London with their hard charging interference was unstoppable by the Bexleyites. The Englishmen doubled the score to the tune of 12 to 6. BEXLEY vs. CENTRAL. Again it hap- pened! But how different! The boys went down fighting to the Columbus School after displaying a good brand of play throughout the game. Diehl made the only touchdown. 18 to 6 was the final score. BEXLEY vs. WORTHINGTON. Com- ing back into their own, the Main Street lads had little difficulty in turning back the at- tack of the North Enders. They blanked them 19 to 0. BEXLEY vs. GROVEPORT. The same lack of teamwork as cost the London game showed up again and amid blocked punts cost the game, 18 to 6. Redman proved to be the Groveport team. BEXLEY vs. GRANDVIEW. Showing a driving power not supposed to be possessed, the Bexleyites outfought, outdrove and out- played their traditional rivals to land on the top of a 21 to 14 score. Touchdowns were gained by Palmer, 2, and Moyer, 1. BEXLEY vs. UPPER ARLINGTON. Hirsch to Marsh and then Hirsch to Marsh again and you have about half of the U. A. Homecoming game. If you say BEXLEY FOUGHT you have the other half. The giant northwesterners couldn’t match the fight nor the play of the Smith coached lads. The re- sult was a 14 to 6 loss for them. BEXLEY vs. OAKWOOD. The eleven journeyed to the Gem city for no other reason than to give Oakwood another defeat. They accomplished just that. The same fight and team work blossomed forth for the last time and closed the curtain on the 1927 grid season—19 to 0. Gridiron Personalities Capt. Hirsch was in no little way responsible for the success of the eleven. Besides filling his position at half-back in fine fashion he turned out to be a capable and hard fighting leader. Stew’s loss will be felt greatly next year. Capt.-elect Palmer proved to be the scrappiest little player on the team. For his weight he has unusual drive and should form an excellent nucleus next year —Here’s luck, Bob. Bus Moyer, Senior, our diminutive signal barker, didn’t let his size worry him but was always in the thick of the fray. It will be hard to replace Bus. Jim Zuber, played the blocking fullback position to complete the back field. Although he didn’t carry the ball much he made up for it with his fine interference. Jim is a Senior. Harold Marsh played right end and it was rarely that a man made much around him. Marsh kicked off for Bexley and filled that job nicely too. Dave Davis, Junior, was Marsh’s running mate at the other terminal. Dave was always giving every- thing he had and after all that’s what makes a good player. Hank Siebert was among the unfortunates this year. Hank held down the tackle job and was a bear on the line until his arm was broken in the Central game. After that his position was filled by Howard Anthony who completed the season as Hank’s tackle. Anthony played a good game and was a hard fighter. Bob Woodward, a Junior, played opposite Anthony and was a constant thorn in the opponent’s offense. Page Sixty Bob was a stone wall in himself; a hard fighter. Bill Diehl, Senior, was among the best linemen of the county and suburban teams. Bill played guard on the offense and dropped back on the defense. Bill helped with the punting in addition to his other duties. Dave Beggs, the other guard, was above the aver- age lineman. We hope Dave will be back next year to continue his driving play. Chuck Tracy, a Senior, played the center position and in addition to his good passing he had worlds of spirit and was certainly a good all around pivot man. Lewie Rietz, Linnie Kilbourne, Bill Miller and Bob Petzinger helped out in the back field and will all be back next year. Jack Jones and Christy Lambrecht subbed at the ends while Gerhold and Haines filled in the tackle berths when needed. It was rarely that a guard was subbed for but when called on Walter Russell and Bob Dickey were ready for service. Paul Tabel and Mack Byle were understudies to Tracy at center and will fight it out for the job next fall. Others on the squad were Hugo Spatz, Neal Neun- herz, Sam Lytle and Leo Polster. The team is certainly indebted to their two man- agers, Bud Lauffer and Arch Houstle. Hard workers, these boys. Always on the job and willing to work for the betterment of the team. Here’s a big bouquet for past, present and future Managers. Boys’ Basketball Squad Left to Right, First Row— Hirsch, Woodward, Capt. Russell, Kilbourne, Elder and Zuber. Second Row—Boyland, Palmer, Diehl, D. Davis, Ross. Third Row—Coach Smith, Brunner, J. Jones, Dickey, Anthony, Sweet, Manager Taber, R. E. Kessler, Principal. Boys’ Basketball Review The basketball team representing the Hi School of Bexley ended the regular season with eight wins out of twelve attempts. Two of these defeats were to Delaware and West- erville, Class A schools, and are certainly ex- cusable. The other two were to Upper Ar- lington and Grandview, our traditional rivals from the northwest. These latter defeats placed Bexley on the bottom rung of the suburban basketball ladder for the first time in many a year. When the call for basketball was issued Coach Smith found himself confronted with the task of forming a team out of compara- tive green material. Not a regular from the previous year was available. After the hard work on the part of both the Coach and the players a team began to be welded from the material at hand. The season was opened at home when St. Mary’s was met. Page Sixty-one Bexley vs. St. Mary’s—Displaying wild passing and erratic shooting the five managed to scrape out an 18 to 9 victory. Bexley vs. Gahanna—Some better but still not so good. 13 to 6 this time. Bexley vs. Groveport—Well, that evened things up for that football game. Better pass work and shooting. 27 to 10 was the final score. Bexley vs. Delaware—The dedication jinx proved too much for the quintet. They gar- nered 22 points but sad to say the boys from Delaware had 28. Bexley vs. Col. Academy—With Bob Woodward acting Captain the five downed the prep, boys 29 to 24. A fast rough and tumble game. Bexley vs. Westerville—Defeat number two. Another class A turned Bexley back 27 to 17. MOUNTAIN TOPS—HURRAH. Bexley vs. Plain City—Displaying a hard driving offense the Bexleyites swamped Plain City 33-14 in a good game.—Looking better. Bexley vs. Capital Academy—Mediocre basketball won for the Smith Coached outfit by the score of 20-14. Have to do better, boys. Bexley vs. Arlington—With revenge in their eyes, the northwesterners took us into camp 24-15. Which is the better, 14 to 6 or 24 to 15? Bexley vs. Granville—Real basketball here. Lewie Russel takes the helm, and HOW! 29-26 that’s how! Bexley vs. Grandview—The hard fighting crew from Grandview won out in the last few minutes. Close all the way through, ending 28 to 26. Bexley vs. Oakwood-—Out of the scramble came the score Bexley 31, Oakwood 21. That ends the regular season in nice fashion. After completing the season in the above way Coach Smith and nine men journeyed to Delaware to the Central District Tourna- ment. Friday found them in a win over Os- trainer by the score of 22-10. Their playing was only fair and showing no improvement the hopes of Bexley glimmered Saturday when they met Gambier. They were dropped from the tournament by the score of 29-12. THE Capt. Lewie Russell, Senior, although un- able to play until the Granville game, cer- tainly showed to advantage when he did play. A dead shot and an elusive floor man, that’s Russ. When you are talking of good back guards, Bob Woodward, Junior, can not be over- looked. A hard fighter and an excellent guarding man, he was certainly a bear on the Bexley five’s defense. Burton Elder was a very capable forward and landed second high point man. Butts will be available next year. Linnie Kilbourne, Junior, was always in the thick of the fray and fought with all he had. Linnie alternated as center and for- ward. Stewart Hirsch was Woodward’s run- ning mate at guard. Stew was high point man as well as being good defensively. We’ll miss him next year. Dave Davis played Page Sixty-two TEAM guard when called on and played it well. Dave is a good shot along with his goal tend- ing and will be an asset to next year’s team. Jack Ross played center the first part of the season and will be back next year with his deadly shooting and capable passing. Jim Zuber filled in at forward berth in place of Russell or Elder. This was Zuber’s first and last year on Bexley teams. Bill Diehl and Bob Palmer played quite a bit during the season, while those who com- pleted the squad and deserve their share of credit and praise are: Jack Jones, Syd. Sweet, Sheeney Anthony, Bob Dickey, Bob Brunner, Jack Boy land. Paul “Hickey” Taber fulfilled the duties of manager during the past season and was cer- tainly a hard working, willing helper. Thanks, Paul for your work. Girls’ Basketball Squad Left to Right, First Row—S. Smith, K. Klingbeil, Ludwig, Manley, Reed. Second Row—Ketner, Brenning, D. Klingbeil, Busch, Singer, El liacy. Third Row—F. Kingbeil, Grable, Mees, Kromer ,Park. Fourth Row—Coach Smith, Harrington, Christian, Hempstead, Coach Schooler. Page Sixty-three (Continued on Page Sixty-eight) Wn Tennis Squad Left to Right, First Row—Hart. Second Row—Barnett, Peters, Tracy, Holtzman, Zuber. Third Row—Palmer, Coach Schooler, Elder. Tennis---Giiis and Boys Tennis seems to be one of Bexley’s most popular sports if the number of candidates for the squad mean anything. Two dozen boys and girls turned out for this year’s out- fit. This number, however, will be cut to about eight on each squad. With a good season last year and a good number of vete- rans available, a good season is predicted by E. Claire Schooler, who has charge of the activities of the court game. Those return- ing from last season are Bob Palmer, Chuck Tracy, Jim Zuber, Mary Holtzman, Mary Page Sixty-four Peters, and Erna Hart. Those new but promising aspirants for the boys’ squad are Bus Moyer, Burton Elder, Arch Houstle, Bill Diehl, Harold Marsh, Lewis Russell, Ralph Barnett, Bob Long and Jack Boyland. The newcomers for the girls are Lee Tracy, Catharine Singer, Eleanor Ludwig, C. b ranees Ketner, Alice Johnson, Jane Roderick and Henrietta Busch. Three or four courts will be available this season and with such abundant material available, tennis should reign victoriously at Bexley Hi. Any- way here’s luck to the squad. Baseball Squad, Left to Right: First Row—Coach Smith, Marsh, Petrie, Davis, Moyer, Diehl, Russell, Hirsch, R. E. Kessler (faculty manager). Second Row—Mattlin (manager), Bone, Rowland, Davidson, Neunherz, Lauffer, Sweet Schlezinger, (manager). Third Row—Hayes, Ketner, Tuckerman, Edmonds, Lytle, Doughty. Baseball Baseball seems to be destined to become the most successful sport of the year and this will surely be the best season ever enjoyed by Bexley High. With nine veterans on this year’s roster, big things are expected. Those men returning for this year’s activities are Petrie, a good pitcher, Hirsch, a mighty fine catcher, Diehl, a past veteran at first base, L. Russell, alternate at third and pitcher Lauffer, our diminutive second baseman, Moyer, who holds down short stop, and P. Davidson, Marsh and D. Davis, the three regular outfielders of the 1927 season. Other aspirants for the ’28 outfit are Sid Sweet, catcher; Lytle, second; Tuckerman, short stop; Ketner, Neunherz, Rowland and Benedict, outfielders; Morris Mattlin and Ed Schlezinger have been chosen to fulfill the managers’ duties. With this list of promising material avail- able, Coach Smith is sure of a successful season which opens April 24 at Canal Win- chester. The full schedule is: April 24—At Canal Winchester. April 27—Grove City. May 2—At Grandview. May 5—At North. May 11—At Groveport May 18—At Marysville. May 25—At Arlington. June 1—Y. M. C. A. Page Sixty-five Track Squad, Left to Right-. First Rom—Busch, Gruber, Ford, Marsh, Houstle. Second Rom— Graves (manager), Watters, Anthony, Woodward, Tracy, Gittlin, Coach Smith. T rack The strength of Bexley’s 1928 track team is at this time very uncertain. With the loss of a number of last year’s members the pros- pects appear of but average quality. In the 100 to 220 yard dashes Marsh and Ford will be available. Gitlin, Gruber, Waters and Virgil Jones will compete in the 440. Busch and Anthony will run in the half mile and the mile. Jones and Anthony are the high jump- ers with Marsh the only broad jumper of any merit. Marsh, Haines and Tracy will throw the discus and Paul Davidson and Woodward put the shot. At this time the javelin is minus anyone to hurl it. The boys need hard training and condition- ing and by hard work and determination will have a good outfit. The following meets have been arranged. April 20—Alumni or Ohio relays. April 25—Aquinas. May 4—Quadrangular Meet; Bexley, Worthington, Grandview, Gahanna. May 12—District Meet. May 19—Open. May 25—State Meet. Page Sixty-six Oolf Team, Left to Bight: First Bow—Petrie, Sculler, Moyer. Second Bow—Zuber, Russell. Third Bow—Woodward. Golf Bexley’s golf team this year competes in the league with teams of the county and suburban schools. This league is composed of Bexley, Grandview, Upper Arlington, St. Marys and Columbus Academy. The winner will play the winner of the city league for the city and Franklin County championship. Bexley dropped their first match to Grand- view at the Scioto Country Club course. Lack of practice certainly showed up here and they were defeated ll to 3 . We hope they will have better luck in their forthcoming matches. Woodward, Zuber, Morris, Moyer and Petrie compose the outfit, with Lewie Russell as an alternate. Page Sixty-seven Girls’ Basketball Team (Continued From The Schooler-eoaehed sextet of the season of 1927-28 has fulfilled all pre-season pre- dictions by finishing with six scalps in their belt and being forced to take the short end of the score only thrice. At the beginning of the season prospects did not look so bright, veteran material being scarce, but there was plenty of promising new material which as the season wore on was whipped into a winning aggregation. A great deal of credit for this season’s show- ing goes to our coach Miss Schooler who with co-operation of Mr. Smith has been able to develop a fighting crew and one which was hard to stop. In the first public showing the varsity had little difficulty in trouncing the subs, but both teams showed the lack of teamwork and prac- tice. In the Gahanna game, which was a walk-awav, they showed remarkable improve- ment, working their offense with ease as well as holding their opponents to a scarce dozen shots. A week later they entertained the Groveport lassies by taking the long end of the score with little trouble. This was one of the most exciting and thrilling games of the season. The girls team started the evening of Jan- uary 13th off in fine fashion when they took the Bliss College basketeers into camp 30-18 —their part of the dedication exercises of the Junior High Gym. The college coeds were unable to co-operate with the fast offense and teamwork of the Blue and White. One of the slowest games of the year was the one with Westerville—being devoid of any interest whatsoever, as the score would indicate, 11 to 8, in our favor, of course. The Plain City game was perhaps the best game played during the entire season, the girls showing real teamwork and, drive throughout the game. Although this was an easy victory yet our team seemed to have found their stride and made up for any of their mistakes of the previous week. Our hopes for a perfect record this season were given a severe jolt on a certain Satur- day evening when we journeyed up to the Page Sixty-eight Page Sixty-three) little town of Arlington. The girls from the school of the Golden Bears made meat of the over-confidence that crept into the playing of the Bexleyites the first half and left us to take the short end of a 22 to 18 win. Though they won it was a thriller being a nip and tuck affair throughout the contest. After having such a fine time at the Sen- ior-Junior Prom on the preceding evening they decided they could not ruin the end of a perfect week so they then put their heart and soul into their playing, although many were minus a few hours sleep, and captured the scalp of the Capital University Girls crew in a 27 to 20 score fray. Again our hopes were destined to take a tumble. This time it was in the form of a feminine sextet from Grandview who ranged up around six feet in heighth. They were too much for our team which looked like mid- gets compared to them. Although the Schooler eagers played a wonderful game they were not equal to their rivals. One of the causes for our defeat was the fine guard- ing of Miss Young and Miss Keller. We suffered our third reverse of the year when Oakwood, Dayton team snatched a 18 to 16 victory from our hands. Although the girls of the Blue and White got away to a slow start they soon lessened the lead of the visitors after once regaining their stride. And it was not until the gun was fired that the winners were crowned, it being very close the last round. Bexley will no doubt feel the loss of Sen- iors who will leave us this year. Katherine Klingbeil, Henrietta Busch, Catharine Singer, Eileen Hemstead, Clara Francis Ketner and Gladys Christian. With such players as Laura Reed, Edythe Manly, Doro- thy Brenning and Dorothy Klingbeil, Miss Schooler ought to again have a team that would be an honor to any High School. Be- sides these she will have Virginia Parks, Betty Harrington, Ruth Mees, Sarah Smith, Katharine Grable and Elinor Tracy back who although they did not make the first team this year should earn their letter next year. orCi CIRCULATION Throughout Western Hemisphere Bexley Hi Lites WEATHER Subject to Frequent Changes Vol. 1 BEXLEY, MAY, 1928 No. 1 GIRL RESERVES WIN PRIZES FOR NEW SCHOOL SONG The five dollar prize offered by Mr. Dieterich for a new school song was won by the Cabinet members of the Girl Reserves. The song was written to the music of “On, Wisconsin.” Because of the lively tune and words, the song is very effective in “pep” meetings. -----B------ HIGH SCHOOL HAS IMPROVEMENTS By K. ENGLEHART The past year has left many im- provements in our school. The cafeteria has been fortunate in ac- quiring a new Frigidaire, which affords better service. The Girl Reserves kept their promise to Mr. Dieterich who allowed them to sponsor the play “Abraham Lin- coln,” by presenting the school with a reading desk. The girls’ basketball squad and the band are resplendent in new uniforms. With all these noteworthy additions, the pupils should be very grateful and show their appreciation by help- ing to keep them in the “pink” of condition. -----B------ BEXLEY HI DETECTIVE PRAISES SUCCESS OF SENIOR-JUNIOR Gymnasium, Feb. 10. — “The party was the most delightful af- fair I have attended for many a year and without a doubt one of the most successful functions ever staged at Bexley Hi,” admitted Gumshoe, Bexley Hi House De- tective. Being near to Valentine’s Day the decorations adopted the mcde of hearts in various sizes, hung from doors, stage, and the false ceiling of red and white streamers. Nowhere was enter- tainment lacking. For the dancers a peppy orchestra and a smooth floor were furnished; bridge en- thusiasts found tables and cards at the hands; for lovers of the theatre a specialty act was pre- sented; and admirers of contests were given entrance to games. Punch attainable throughout the evening, life-size hearts of ice cream, and cookie hearts loyal to dear old Bexley in their costumes of white and blue, composed re- freshments which no king or queen dared refuse. Mr. and Mrs. Dieterich, Mr. and Mrs. Kessler, Mr. and Mrs. Smith were honor guests of the evening. -----B------- FATHER-SON BANQUET HELD Junior Hi. Gym. Rabbi Tarshish spoke at the an- nual Father-Son banquet, Thurs- day, February 23. Following the address a few magical stunts per- formed by Mir. McBee proved de- lightful entertainment. Through the courtesy of Mr. H. C. Black of the Pennsylvania Railroad, a moving picture story of a trip to Washington was shown. -----B------- TORCH BANQUET AT THE NEW WILLARD RESTAURANT By M. DIETERICH Feb. 29.—Miss Evaline Harring- ton of West High, gave a most in- spiring talk on “Running a High School Newspaper and its value and relation to Life.” Clever toasts were given by Francis Lauffer on “Scoops” and Jane Roderick on “News.” Dorothy Kelley acted as toastmistress, and both a jolly and interesting time was reported by everyone of the “Journalists” of Bexley High. p. S.—The food was also en- tirely satisfactory. GRID-IRON WARRIORS GIVEN ROYAL TREAT By J. P. TABER After every season’s labor comes the reward. So it is at the end of the football season at Bexley. This year a “Royal” feast was staged in the new Junior Hi Cafeteria on the fifteenth of December. Though the affair is only history yet the taste of creamed chicken, mashed potatoes, and all the other “goodies” lingers on. Picture a chicken banquet aided by the prettiest waitresses this side of the Scioto River being served in the dining salon decorated with Blue and White and you have the sur- roundings. The crowd was a merry one of dads, mothers, coaches, and the boys themselves numbering eighty-two in all. Added to the pleasure was the fact that the speeches were short and breezy, yet carrying a moral. Mr. Dieterich as master of ceremonies made a big hit in his debut as announcer and introduced the speakers in a very clever manner. -----B------- GIRL RESERVES GIVE BIG SISTER PARTY A Big Sister Party of welcome for new girls at Bexley High was given Thursday afternoon, Sep- tember 23, by the Girl Reserves. Novel get-acquainted games proved exciting. Everyone en- joyed a rollicking Virginia Reel, followed by refreshments of orange ice and cakes decorated with a blue triangle of icing. -----B----------- WANTED A 98% student as a substitute for next year.

June 8, Graduation. -----B------ DRAMATICS CLUB ENTERTAINS By E. SCHNEIDER Feb. 21.—A very original pro- gram for a Washington celebration was given by the Bexley High Dramatics Club. A Roman Dance opened the program. The main feature was a modern comedy of domestic problems. “The Play- goers,” by Pinero. Mrs. Olive White Fortenbacher, dramatics teacher, gave two readings, “The Unknown Soldier,” coming nearest to celebration of patriotism. The orchestra furnished the delightful musical portion of the brief enter- tainment. -----B------ FINE ARTS PROGRAM APPEALS TO STUDENTS Chapel, Feb. 27—The arts- music program given Monday was one of the most artistic and enjoy- able of the year. Doc McClain, a 7th grade pupil at Pilgrim Junior Hi provided the musical half of the program with several violin selections. Doc is different from most of the youths, his talent dis- played the budding artist within. Mr. Carl Bolander, director of the Columbus Gallery of Fine Arts, discussed “Art and Its Value.” By his illustrated lecture he clearly brought out that art was being used more and more in everyday life. He showed the advances made in beautifying greeting cards, wrapping papers, posters and parcel containers. ------B------ FOR SALE June 1, Auction Sale of all Sen- ior textbooks at the school west corridor. ------B------ DISTINGUISHED ARTIST PLAYS Chapel, March 28,—“I’d like to do more for you—and I will,” was the answer to the spontaneous ap- plause which greeted David Rubinoff, talented Russian violinist and understudy of Fritz Kreisler. He then played “Though You Threw Me Down” a beautiful song full of meaning which left the au- dience a little sad, after which he rendered with the most delicate artistry “Among My Souvenirs”. Reciting the little verse, “If music were the wine of Love I would pour it from my violin,” he con- cluded a noteworthy program. Mr. Rubinoff was brought to Bexley High through the courtesy of the Columbus Citizen. ------B------ DAYTON GIRLS “FETED” Following the game February 23, the girls team of Bexley High School gave a spread in the Junior Hi Cafeteria, honoring the girls’ team of Oakwood, Dayton. School colors (being in the form of sand- wiches) were relished with favor. Never will be forgotten the part- ing enthusiastic team cheer, “Thank you, Bexley, Oakwood says, ‘Thank you’.” -----B------- DIVORCED Stewart Hirsch, age unknown, from Sociology, age—of everlast- ing social problems. -----B------- “THE FAIR CO-ED” SHOWN By K. ENGLEHART Auditorium, Feb. 9.—Movieland featured Marion Davies, the blonde gentlemen prefer, in an- other gay characterization of col- lege life. It was spicy, snappy, and full of laughs. The main idea centered around a college basket- ball game in which Miss Davies, after having disgraced herself, was redeemed by her perfect spectacular shot thrown and made as the whistle blew. -----B------- “THE ROSE OF TOKIO” GREATLY ENJOYED BY LARGE CROWDS The annual musical comedy given by Bexley High School stu- dents was greatly enjoyed by the students and patrons of the school. The beautiful stage settings, at- tractive costumes, and very catchy music made “The Rose of Tokio” one of the most appealing comedies ever given by the High School pupils. The members of the cast won favorable comments on the excellent portrayal of their characters. The choruses greatly delighted the audience by sight and ear. The play was directed by Miss Leona M. Artley and Mr. Rodman Pease of the John B. Rogers Producing Company. Page Seventy e'y JorcA.

As a result, the horse was foaming at the mouth. While he was inside a youngster came up and stood by looking at the horse. The man had to wait some time but the young- ster remained outside looking at the horse. Finally, the man came out and noticed the youngster still there, so he asked him, “What you waiting for, Johnny?” The youngster replied, “Mister, I’m waiting for the barber to come out and shave the horse. I never saw it done before.” Kelley—What are you doing? Jane—(Tearing off the calendar) I’m passing away time. “Say, mister, what’s your idea in plugging your ears and shutting your eyes while this football game is going on ? “I don’t want to be bothered with the yelling and I hate to see those boys fight- ing over a little ball.” The Scotchman tried for several hours but he couldn’t get the telegram below eleven words.

May Hulda’s coffee grinder keep Your weary eyes from soothing sleep. And may my wee, annoying son Come in at six to have some fun. May frigid winds and sheets of rain Blow in upon your counterpane. And may you leave our friendly fold The sad possessor of a cold. May doleful dreams and gloom attend Your night with us, beloved friend.
