East Technical High School - June Bug Yearbook (Cleveland, OH)

Text from Pages 1 - 140 of the 1927 volume:

FOREWORD Once again the graduates have lifted up hands of prayer and asked for a June Bug , the marvelous drama of East Technical School Life. Behold it, with a stupendous cast of nearly five hundred, some of whose portraits shine in the fore part of this book; including also hundreds of moments tense and thrilling, pathetic and humorous, which details, with all veracity, the Annual Staff has essayed to wedge between these covers. Many impediments had to be detoured and eliminated before this book went to the type hurlers' emporium. With considerable difficulty and after much exhortation, was the subscription extracted from those lofty (cough) seniors whose enthusiasm could not carry them to the extraordinary tact of disbursing the necessary coin. Since Mr. Peeling did not have the gift of Midas, he resolved to print this book in spite of the Scotch graduates. Which he did. The Annual staff wishes to thank all those that helped them in these tasks. Above all it expresses hearty and sincere appreciation to Miss Ethel Morris as Adviser to the editorial board, and to Mr. O. J. Peeling for his excellent aid to the business staff. We have given the gift of life to the June Bug”; you only can give it immortality. THE ANNUAL BOARD. One To Miss Ann Arbuthnot, for nineteen years of eager interest in the welfare of the girls of East Tech, of untiring kindliness, understanding, and love for us ally wet the class of 1927 give our hearts with this book % Threr 192.7 Four Ol JUNE Wrf ID Six H.

All day the voices of the senior class have been gay—joyous—but with the dusk, they grow shaded—muted—. Slender white butterflies drifting in the shadowy corridors, the girls congregate for that seemingly useless last minute preening” so dear to feminine minds and so utterly maddening to all representatives of the sterner sex. Last moment agonies—Have Mother and Dad managed to secure those center section seats? Are the bouquets to be very, very pretty? What if the Board of Education has overlooked some of the diplomas? Just suppose Mr. Bathrick wears his cherished golf suit instead of the tuxedo which this momentous occasion demands? Down to the gym—line up—line up—Miss Sampson rushing here— Boys, stop that shoving”—line up—line up—Line Up! Marching into the auditorium—Craning of necks, rustling of brief skirts, smiles of cousins, uncles, aunts, and what have you? Is this our Tech auditorium? In a few hours it has changed to gigantic proportions—We are at Tech, all right—there’s good old Mr. Dougan leading the orchestra! Down the aisle—Florence Haas, looking like a madonna with heavy dark hair sweeping back from her face; Maxine Johnson, a golden cherub; little Billie” Schoenthal. queerly solemn; Bill Medcsy—strange we never noticed before how like a parson Bill can look at times! All the boys look very much subdued—Even John Henry is sufficiently impressed! Up the platform now—all seated—a shaky little quietness like a lost sob—Mr. Bathrick is rising! No, he has not forgotten his tuxedo but if only he were wearing a gray business suit again and welcoming us to East Tech instead of wishing us a black tuxedo godspeed! Remember? All of us, brand-new shivering freshies, crowded into Tech’s auditorium four years ago? Vainly trying to act nonchalant, though literally scared stiff? Elevtn TMTj L_ BUG t Bunched together in junior high groups, we spent our energies in admiring those big boys in khaki who helped straighten things. Mr. Bathrick had formerly promised us a good time in Tech if we were good little kids—Nice time? We really hadn’t been so good, but we wish now we hadn’t been so careless with our homework, that we had been more dignified with 'Bill” Fairgrieve, and hadn’t argued so fervently with Daddy Durstine. One consolation—we really had worked as freshmen; brought our homework in on time and everything; plugged away at our math and English, and worked our fingers to the bone at those technicals which are so grandly handed out by the office for the proper education of little underclassmen. To tell the horrible truth, we were too frightened to do otherwise. We made ourselves very scarce, although the sophs insisted we were more bother than we were worth. Funny things, sophs! They expect all little flats to make everlasting fools of themselves, and are disappointed when they don’t! Our sophomore year, however! It was great fun to lord it over the new flats, very good fun to be sophisticated and grown-up, even though musical auds and the inauguration of the Student Council president brought that queer babyish feeling to our throats as though we were going to cry—and goodness, a perfectly good thing like that is nothing to cry about! Under our carefully careless exterior, we were secretly in awe of the teachers. Miss Marcia Henry with her demand for a new alarm clock was a constant terror, while Mr. O. J. Peeling reigned as a frightening Ogre. In our senior year, we learned that O. J. is really a delightful individual, but at the time we were under his thumb, it was impossible to conceive of any math teacher ever qualifying as a good fellow . Daddy Durstine. alone, was unable to frighten us—Honestly, hasn’t that man the most catholic taste on earth? He likes seniors, he likes flats, he likes juniors, and even managed to like us rather snobbish sophomores. Oh well, Daddy knows it’s all in a lifetime—although he did tease us unmercifully when we became juniors. Being a junior, really, is the best part of school. Flats are too dumb, sophs too—too—too—well, honestly, can anyone think of a phrase to fit those lords of creation? Seniors are too busy stretching Uncle Sammy’s one hundred cents on the dollar, but oh the Juniors—! The fascinating prospect of clubs was the problem of the Juniors: The Scara-bean or the Palladium with its crown of intellectual supremacy—the Skaters with their pep, or, better still, the Gym Captains' clubs—! Unwittingly, we Juniors furnished one-half of the problem of clearing the halls promptly after school. At the beginning of the term, serious discussions of what course to take were the rule. The hard and set law of the office in regard to what all must take was forgotten—Most of us ran amuck and let the waters of program-making suck us under. (What an angel of deliverance is Mr. V. D. Hawkins!) And how we Juniors could cut study halls! Miss Parmcnter must have had the patience of Job and that of a flapper waiting for a Saturday night call. There we go—mooning again! It is time to be getting ready for the class song. Push back our chairs without making any noise—(Wonder, is Miss Sampson holding her breath for fear we will crash the gates to doom with a cane-bottomed chair?) Aaah! We’re up. Nel” Mitchell must have had a terrible time: He is blessed with an abundance of leg-length. Thought so— Nel is wiping his face—poor kid! Commencement is the one time when Dad and Mother are forced to sit through a vocal offering of their offsprings and look as though they enjoy it. Oh sweet revenge. Q 09271 E Twelt C11 JUNE 10 “Down through the roses Comes sweet call of the mandolin Nightfall in Granada And the ring of the light guitar. Mr. Dougan down in the orchestra pit is working like a Trojan. Probably it is his last chance to make us work. We'll do anything you want, Roy, only hurry! Man alive, don't you remember how excited you were when you graduated? Do you want us to break down in the middle of the song? If sophomores may act sophisticated, it is the blessed privilege of the seniors to act as childish and excited as possible. Calmly ignoring the repeated requests of the teachers to remember that you are the example of the underclassmen, we dashed about like so many ducks out of water. But then—do you blame us? Every week a perfectly business-like senior meeting did more than anything else to tell us how little time we really had. Then the senior get together” party, which was attended a la hard luck. Jessie Miles and Arline Furgerson made a charming down east couple, Ethel Shipoce looked like the latest importation from the Bower)-, Chuckie Telling seemed like nothing but a hard working family man with the prospect of spring cleaning just around the corner. Then the one glorious week during which even sedate Frank Kowalski paraded the halls, making frantic gestures which might have shamed a member of Mr. Davis’s dramatic classes. Deadly enemies were shaking hands in the effort to display further their rings. The excitement over senior rings had hardly subsided before fevered discussions of orchids, taffetas, silver slippers, and other Senior Prom accessories took the stage. The sole contribution of the boys was, What do we eat?” Of the last crowded days only a hazy impression is left—memories of attending a corking class night play, of autographing our way through Senior Day, of dressing for Commencement—the rushed rehearsal, with Miss Edna Grant promising social excommunication to anyone chewing gum on the platform. Well, it is almost all over. President Bill Mcdesy is introducing the speaker from the Board of Education. A few words— in behalf of the Board of Education”— we do not hear the rest—that is our clue to rise for our diplomas—go easy there. Don’t push—it is not necessary to say “Thank you”—just look intelligent and smile when your diploma is handed to you—(Page Miss Grant). We have our diplomas—time for the march off the stage—no, no. it can't be so soon—Bill Medesy and Mildred Douda, don't lead the line off the platform just yet. You seem anxious to go. Don’t you realize that it is the end of School? Slowly, reluctantly, with eyes just a little blurred, we wind down the steps, slowly across the Aud, to where Miss Ryan and Miss Sampson stand by the door, smiling and understanding what a utterly lost feeling it is to know that by the time you go out the door you are not any longer just a youngster—but a grown-up person. A few crowded moments of farewell after the big show—promises to write— then out the arched doorway of East Tech—A graduate! Betty Biro. WILLIAM A.

Ci 11927r Twenty-seven D ’TWIXT HEAVEN AND EARTH PROLOGUE Was that a figure stealing through the gloom of yon grey walls? It bore kindred resemblance to one. Should 1 have spoken to it? Why not? It had beckoned me. “Come, come, frail hesitating mortal,” were the words broached by that ominous apparition. It had spoken of a “frail hesitating mortal ; it could not have referred to me; 1 had not been the least intimidated by its uncalled-for presence, yet my business called me elsewhere. “Bah! I’ll be away. Fear is stupid. Still, my motor appendages refused to function with the required alacrity. They carried me slowly in the wrong direction. I approached the weird figure. It seemed to chortle gleefully, “To you, my earthling, comes the dire heritage and maledictions of that august group of graduates sent out into the world in the mid-months of that fateful year, one thousand nine hundred and twenty-seven.” (Part the First) “Long years ago, a number of youthful characters were inveigled into attending, une ecole superieure, a marvelous structure of doubtful contents. These innocents arriving on the threshold of their ‘great adventure’ were astounded by the mechanism controlling this vast institution. As they progressed in their studies, they grasped many ponderous and weighty thoughts. Their minds enabled them to perceive the wisdom of not attempting to climb the staircases which were indicated as 'Down only,’ especially so, when a burly military hall guard barred the way. Among other things they were impressed by the austerity of a group known as ‘Seniors.’ Threefold times they bent beneath the scroll and knew not why. Their new cloth-bound volumes not yet touched by student’s hand encouraged them in their folly. They tackled the studies allotted them with a zest and vigor worthy of a better cause. Beyond a doubt, they believed, they could conquer the world single-handed. Poor fools, may their souls rest in purgatory. “Ah! you scoff, you, a mere human, scoff at these words of mine! Such impertinent dogmatism!” “Er----ah, no, not at all, absolutely not, not I. I’ve had the measles though.” As if but partially appeased, the old one had stared at me with those bottom- 3 IMP t Twenty-eight Q| BUG 10 less pits of eyes until I felt myself losing consciousness. I seemed lifted into space and transported many miles. (Part the Second) There, unbeliever, you view the calm before the storm.” Before me stood the old familiar brownstone walls in a verdant mantle of spring, of youth, or whdt you will. The customary dissidcnces of the day were, most obviously, absent. A strange calm had settled on the scene: the birds, song, sunshine, and other distractions of an ideal Spring day were apparent; but something subtle was missing. Clearly there was a momentous project on hand. What? Why? and How? offer a series of questions incapable of being answered, without further intelligence. Upon careful and prolonged investigation I learned —that it was indeed a momentous occasion, of supreme importance, to those concerned. A whole two weeks of holidays had been declared, dating from the previous day onward. Thus it was I learned the importance of holidays. (Part the Third) When these afflictions of '27 had arrived at the distinction of being considered ‘Juniors'. continued my old one, there arose a new problem to confront them. One half the class arrived at the conclusion that there was a femininity of the species: conversely, the other half deduced the fact that a masculine cult also existed. Then followed a wild whirl of ‘parties,’ ’clubs,' 'dances.' and allowance depreciations. They had now quite cured themselves of that studious habit so prevalent among the uninitiated. They also had outgrown the delight derived from Freshman hazing', a sport dear to the heart of the 'Sophomore.' They no longer considered the 'Senior' such a divinity. They actually knew many of them! Quite extraordinary, quite! Some, the less fortunate of this group, being burdened with a feeble brain, were invited to join the ‘Scarabaean Honor Society’ a calamity looked on by all as something to be avoided. The members of this monstrosity actually favored study as a privilege to be grasped -gingerly. Quite unconsciously these masses drifted along, drifted carelessly, drifted recklessly, quite detached from cerebral sensitiveness, which might have detected the rocks and other submerged obstructions likely to bar their way. Bah! 'tis of such stuff humans are fashioned. (Part the Fourth) World weary, and sophisticated these youngsters became affiliated with the ‘Senior’ class. Their hypocrisy was at its climax. Their one thought was: We are SENIORS! Teachers mean nothing to us; we are beyond them.’ Were they disappointed in their expectations? No. not disappointed, but simply astounded. The faculty had the bigoted audacity to give them failing grades. Their consternation was genuine. They viewed the horrors of not graduating with their class. Headless ghouls trailed them thru their sleep; bleary-eyed witches rode their bed posts. Dante’s ‘Inferno’ is a paradise compared to vivid imaginations fostered by agitated students. Graduation drew near. The 'Senior Party' came and went. 'Class Night' next, and finally 'Commencement. The uncertainty of their scholastic status was at an end. They strode out on the platform, were handed their parchments---------------.” But now. what of them now? Where are they? I ejaculated. Nc les voyez-vous pas? There they are, those groups today, off yonder. It pointed off thru the mists. Watch them! Such nonsense! Did you notice that?” I gazed into empty space with increased interest but saw less. The wraith’s voice trailed off in a whisper and I was alone. Henry G. Poole. 11 fl927 l ' • T Ttt Kty-nine OL june bug 3 NELSON GRAS HAW 2S47 E. 127 St. Combined Hi-Y President Home Room President E.

Now the last weary milestone hath become a memory; the hard-earned foolscap a reality. What thinkest thou now. as conquerors, when thy gaze travels back over the well-trodden fields reminiscent of thy triumphs' The horizon is rosy, yet the past too cheery to be left without a sigh. Forward, on to—what? Glory, to be sure. Thy successors will take up thy work for better or for worse. Nay! Tarry not. nor linger by the way. For thee, the past hath closed and the tasks of tomorrow must be attended to. Tomorrow, an indefinite word, but of great promise for youth! Hail to thee all! Thy heritage is matchless. Be on! Thou canst not tarry by the way. Henry G. Poole. 31 . Qg27l Fifty three 10 il__ BUG_,. n AUGUST'GRADUATES 1. Frdnk Boat 2. Martha Billingsley 3. Nathan BoMtritx 4. Alcied J. Breaux 3. Sara Cramer 12.

Scene: The Scarab room in the midst of a flurry of copy paper and dog eared pencils. Five more minutes and all copies must be in , calls Adele Levine, editor of the Scarab. Oh-h-oh . (Groans and sighs). When the bell rings at the end of the ninth period, and most of the students close their books and hurry home, the work of the Scarab reporters first begins. Up to room 272 they hurry with all their scrambled notes to be transcribed into readable and interesting stories. From a maze of characteristic scrawls and scribbles, the Scarab emerges triumphant each Thursday morning. No one can solve so involved a mystery, and when questioned, both Miss Ethel M. Wood and C.

The activities of the fall semester included a week-end “Down on the Farm”, a snipe (?) hunt, a successful Assembly, a dancing class, and a party. During this time Bashful Bus Mitchell reigned as prexy”. After a hair-raising and editor-killing campaign, “Milly Galen took the presidency of the Spring Term. Her closest contestant, LeRoy Wright, became vice-president and, as its chairman, saw the Festival, Jazz-land and all, to a brilliant finish. Then, its big work finished, the Council retired to enjoy a social life with a few more parties.

Its members, ousted by this voracious demon, had to seek a new home in which to carry out its primary purpose, that of being a service club. A few South-end churches volunteered. On Tuesday evenings this Hi-Y amasses its members together in one of these churches. After a hearty and delectable ?) repast, the boys convene for a business meeting. It seems that the Hi-Y’s all have trouble, not with, but about their faculty advisers. Broadway is no exception. At the beginning of the fall semester Mr. Smith of the Auto department offered himself as such, but night school took too much of his time and he was forced to resign. The club still stands without an adviser. More luck to the Hi-Y’s on the adviser problem. Fall Term Nelson Mitchell........... Richard Morgan ........... Fred Deli .................

Much of the success is to be credited to the new dramatic coach who is at the head of it. This director is Eugene C. Davis, who came to us in September from Edmonton. Canada, where he was head of the English department in Victoria High School. Due acknowledgment must also be given to those carefully selected forty boys and girls who have devoted their time to stage rehearsals. The Man Who Couldn't Say ■No','' a one-act American comedy, was their initial offering. Charles Telling and Herbert Auw vied with each other in the title role and did some splendid character work. The part of Joe's friend, Abner Ellis, was taken by William Bertalan and William Wagner, while Ethel Shipocc and Mildred Douda played the role of Joe's crippled old mother. Two promisirfg young players. Alice Sheply and Viola Sistek, appeared as Hallie, an orphan living at the Stebbins' home, and two genuine juveniles. Peter Nitz and Harry McCarty, were seen as Joe's mischievous little son. Eddie. Eric Pickersgill acted as Dr. Sellers in both casts. Percival Wilde’s The Enchanted Christmas Tree was produced at Christmas time with Elbert Dalton. Alice Green, Frank Toth, and Esther Valyo in the leading roles. A charming feature of the play was a group of small children. Josiah and Ella Benton hated children; they hated Christmas; in fact they hated anything that was not stiff and cold and intolerant like themselves. They enjoyed their complacent selfishness—at least they thought they did—until the Christmas Eve of the play. A series of astonishing incidents take place in rapid succession, until it is delightful to watch the frigid hearts of the Bentons gradually melt until they become warm and unselfish and human enough to feel the joy and happiness of Christmas. mo id Sixtyri a DRAMATICS l| TCJINJE Arrangements for the Senior Day program, in January, were under the direction of Mr. Davis. “The Ghost Story”, by Booth Tarkington, an exceedingly laughable comedy in one act, was selected for the dramatic portion of the show. Charles Telling as “George”, and Marguerite Sump as Anna” displayed some excellent acting ability. The remainder of the cast included Ethel Shipoce, Helen Kachlein, Eva Smith, Peter Cariota, Howard Cowdrey, Dorn Miller, William Medesy, and Willie Ella Hill. By unanimous request of the senior class, Mr. Davis played the title role of “Grumpy” in the four-act play of the same name presented on class night. The reason for the popularity of the work was not hard to discover. It contained not only an intensely thrilling and exciting plot, which centered around the theft of a valuable jewel, but it fairly abounded in clever comedy. Sweet “Virginia Bullivant”, grand-daughter of Grumpy”, was played by Mildred Douda. There was nothing wanting in her interpretation of the attractive young girl. Ernest Heron , the hero, nephew of “Grumpy”, was played by Joe Miller. He took the part well and made an exceedingly favorable impression in a difficult role. The villain, Mr. Jarvis, was successfully enacted by Howard Cowdrey. With unusual dexterity he played the part of a smooth gentleman of the world, found in the end to be the thief of the jewel. Ruth Krivanek, as Susan, made a charming maid, while Charles Telling successfully portrayed Ruddock, the English valet. One of the funniest plays of the modern stage, Happy-Go-Lucky”, brimful of laughter, romance, and pathos, was chosen as the annual spring play. An unusual wealth of talent was unearthed at the tryouts. Mildred Douda and William Bertalan appeared in the leading juvenile roles, with a splendid supporting cast. Once more Mr. Davis was a member of the cast, this time as a comedy character, Samuel Stillbottle”, as a sheriff's officer. This part was in absolute contrast to that of “Grumpy”. The setting of the first act was in the hall of the London home of the Main-warings, with Margaret Mawhorter as Lady Marian Mainwaring, Robert Wakefield as Abel Mainwaring M. P., and Alice Green as Sylvia Mainwaring. It was here that Dick Mainwaring (Bertalan) brings Tilly (Miss Douda) on her first—and uninvited visit. Tilly’s efforts to play up to the aristocratic family by boasts of the ancestral mansion in Russell Square, Bloomsbury; the billiards and the butler, and all throw a light on the comedy of Act II, in which the Mainwarings pay a return visit to the home of Tilly's parents. With several more short plays scheduled for the remainder of the year and “Peg O’ My Heart” well under way as the class night production, we may safely say that an exceedingly successful year has been completed. C1L- QgZZJ Sixly-tcvtn P KENNEDIAN CLUB All students enrolled in the special art classes are eligible for membership in the Kennedian Art Club. The object of the club is to stimulate an interest in art. It is also the mental, moral, and educational improvement of all members in the field of artistic, historical, commercial, and social advancement, relating to art. In order to buy the placques which will some day extend entirely around the upper wall of the art room, the members of the club, each semester, vote on the kind of art work they wish to work on for that term. The club has already made a great many menu cards, some telephone-book covers, and individual members have painted scarfs and handkerchiefs. For this semester, the club is divided into three groups. One group will continue with menu cards, another will make lampshades, and the third will tie-dye scarfs. The group which makes the smallest amount of money is to treat the other two groups at the end of the term. Fall Term Officers Sprinc Term Anna Plitchuweit .....................

All students taking the special course in chemistry are eligible for membership. The club meets every Thursday in Room 42 at 3:30 o'clock, the adviser being Mr. E. G. Pierce, teacher of the chemistry specializing course. The program for the meeting is in charge of a Program Committee. There is not only a program committee, but also an Advertising Committee which takes care of the write-up for the Scarab and other news of importance to the club. An Attendance Committee takes care of absences; that is, finds out the reason of the member's absence if an excuse is not sent in by the member. The club also becomes acquainted with students who have graduated in this course and are working in this kind of work.

It has been an active and growing organization ever since, chiefly because of the energetic manner in which the members of the club go about its business. The club makes occasional visits to the large industrial concerns of this city in an effort to supplement the technical knowledge already acquired in school. The purpose of the Big Four is to promote good fellowship among the four technical departments and to aid the members in selecting their vocations.

Several boys who were specializing in Machine Designing thought that they would be able to fit themselves better for the work ahead of them by having a club in which to discuss their various problems. The idea met with much enthusiasm by the other specializing students, and so the Machine Designers’ Club became a real thing. The Machine Designers try to promote good fellowship among the members. A club of this kind has many and various activities, participating in club athletics, the Festival of Fun. theatre parties, outings, trips to factories, and instructive talks by graduate members and successful business men.

The efficiency of the book shop in the past speaks well for its management. It was first organized to give service to the students and has never failed to live up to its purpose ever since. Locks, pens, ink, or whatever you need may be obtained readily. Nor are the show case, cash register, and other equipment of a modern book shop lacking.

CJl 09271 : lo Ninttyo H| JUNE THE MUSICAL UNION The Musical Union is a composite organization consisting of the Band, Orchestra, Boys' and Girls' Glee Club, and the four Voice Culture classes. This group is unique, in a sense, considering the variety of their accomplishments, although all have been in the realm of music. Through their collective efforts, many an interesting program has been given. Sometimes their subjects have the trend of musical farce, such as sketches or descriptions of amusing incidents. In the operettas, the singers exhibit quite a marked dramatic talent. During the past year the activities of the band have been many. The football games would have seemed incomplete had it not been for the brass instruments. Then again, preparation for the state band competition took strenuous practice. The orchestra and the other members of the union have not been napping, either. The necessary music for various plays and programs required their attention. The orchestra's interpretation of difficult compositions would do credit to a more celebrated body. The vocal department has managed some remarkable tonal effects in programs before the student body. In December, the operetta, College Days, given by selected soloists from the voice culture classes, a chorus of the combined glee clubs, and accompanied by the orchestra, was enthusiastically received. The type of music presented is of the best, even stringent critics of music must admit. Among the standard repertoire for the band and orchestra, such selections as the following appear: The Triumphal March. from Sigurd Jorsalfor by Grieg; Overture from Semiramide” by Rossini; Suite No. 2 from Carmen, by Bizet; Beethoven’s Turkish March ; and Mendelssohn’s Wedding March’’ from Midsummer Night’s Dream”. Down the list you could go, naming other famous classics, or the more modem music, such as Victor Herbert’s Mile. Modiste.” Tone poems requiring a nicety of symphonic arrangements are also found on the orchestra’s programs. W’ithout a doubt, under the skillful leadership of Mr. Dougan, the orchestra is surpassed by few of its class in tone, quality, and blending or interpretation. The solo work of both instrumental groups should be noted also, as solo work is necessary to a greater or less extent in all successful bodies of a similar type. Then again, the part the band played in the R. O. T. C. military unit stationed previously at this school was indispensable. During the Christmas season, when the holiday spirit runs high, the Glee Clubs, assisted by solo violinists, presented some delightful carols, reminiscent of the old time Yuletide. Without music, life would be a barren waste, but fortunately the musical status of East Technical High School” is high, owing to the combined efforts of the Musical Union, and the untiring interest of Mrs. Park and Mr. Dougan. Ninety-three IIQ271 THE BIG TEN CLUB The Big Ten. sometimes known as the “Theta Eta Nu“, meaning Ten, was organized during the past year, its object being to promote fair-play and increase the participation in school activities. An ambition of the club is to have at least one of its members in each school activity, and one or more as understudies to take the place of the graduates. In this manner, they always have some participants in most of the activities. OFFICERS George M. Elkins ... .. President Mike C. Minadco William 0. Dicome.... Alcied J. Breaux A. F. Leisenheimer W.

Drama, comedy and pathos, were always present, either singly or in company. Scores cannot indicate, and ten-yard lines cannot measure the true worth of grid clashes long since faded into the past. With Mr. William “Bill” Fairgrieve as coach, aided and abetted by Mr. Edward Oliver, the East Tech football squad plunged into a brief period of intensive training a week or so before the opening of school last fall. Edison Field, named after Thomas Edison, inventor of the phonograph and a shining light in the incandescent industry, was chosen as a training ground. Then, with the picked eleven “raring to go, Tech witnessed its first game of the year on Saturday, September 25. South High of Akron was the opponent. The day was an ideal one for stay-at-home purposes. A cold, drizzling rain wept mournfully throughout the performance, to the discomfort of teams and onlookers alike. The earth was sodden, the sky was leaden. The last leaves of summer bowed in hopeless dejection. Disagreeable though the conditions were, however, the struggle was an exciting and absorbing one, marred, of course, by the 7 to 7 deadlock, resulting from Tech’s inability to retain its 7 point lead at the half. Bernard “Wildcat Brugge scored the first touchdown of the season with becoming grace. Next came the first Senate argument—and Tech's first trouncing. East, which ultimately annexed the championship, proved to be too strong a foe for that stage of the season and lashed the locals 26 to 0. Exactly 811 Tech rooters, in the breasts of whom hope sprang eternal, saw their team slaughtered mercilessly. This was the largest crowd to see a football game in the last few years of the school’s history. Misfortune was at least partly responsible for Tech’s defeat. An 80-yard sprint for a touchdown by Johnson went for naught, thanks to the pleasant-voiced referee, that incident turning a Tech tally into one for East, scored on the following play. The half ended at 7 to 0. The skies, up to then spotlessly blue, became overcrowded and took on a threatening appearance. At the end of the third quarter. Mr. Jupiter Pluvius appeared suddenly. From then on, as a sports writer might say. the field’s name was mud. And we might add that it was East Tech’s also. The following Saturday, East Tech reversed the tables by defeating John Adams 26 to 0. Adams was heavier, but only that and nothing more. It fell hard and often. That there was great glee in the camps of the Techites is needless to say. A non-Senate engagement was the next act on the program. Lakewood, undefeated in the past two years, was jerked from its high horse and narrowly escaped a catastrophe. The result was a scoreless tie. With Captain Sabath barking his signals in the best of taste, the clastic Mr. Wood and Mr. Peter Amico bounded to within mere inches of the Lakewood uprights, only to be thwarted with victory in sight. There followed in rapid succession three distasteful defeats, three bitter pills in the path of time. After Tech’s brilliant invasion of the Lakewood country, Central hovered into sight on the Senate road. Final tabulation of touchdowns showed that the Central gridders had the better of the count, the score being 27 to 14. Inability of Tech’s backfield to undermine its aggressors’ passing attack was the raison d’ etre (Fr.), although the line, 3 no2fr : : Ninety-nine X O C THE GRIPPING GRID — Continued had it held better, would still have been pretty poor. A 95-yard run by Hood was the one truly bright spot in a performance where the opposition had pretty much its own way. With huzzahs and hurrahs; with sports dope and statistics; with editorials and lyrical outbursts came the day of days, the titanic battle of the Techs, the mastodonic, overpowering West Tech eleven against the sleight-of-hand, now-you-see-us-now-you-don't magicians of East Tech. What was to be? Nothing more and nothing less than an assassination, with West Tech piling up 37 points to Sabath Company’s insignificant 0. The Wcstsiders used both plunging and passing to excellent advantage. From all appearances, the entire Tech team, with exception of Hood, was under the influence of the potent spell of Morpheus. Time, the healer of all things—would it never pass? With the recovery of consciousness. Tech journeyed to Dayton in quest of redress, but again blundered across a rough and ready rival. Despite the fact that Tech scored in the opening quarter, the gentlemen of Steele lived up to their name and readjusted the score to read 13 to 6. Historians have it that when Steele stepped on the Techers they exclaimed, Enough!” or “Hey!” or something, and swept through the remainder of the season with colors flying and bands blaring. Lincoln was the first victim to be taken in by Tech’s renewed campaign for vengeance. It was crushed 24 to 8 after one of the most spectacular grid spectacles of the season. Many thrilling incidents flash before one's mind, if any, when the game is recalled; for example Hood's 55-yard dash around end to start the game; Sabath’s pass to Hood for a net 23 yards and another touchdown; Pat Minello’s recovery of the kickoff over the goal line for the third touchdown; the blocking of Johnson’s punt on Tech’s four yard line; Tech’s holding for four downs six inches from its goal; the incapacitating of Sabath; Lincoln’s pass for touchdown over Tech’s demoralized eleven; and, finally, Hood’s hair-raising 85-yard run through the entire Lincoln team for the final count. On Saturday, November 30th, snow and the football curtain fell. The scene was one of peace. The field, blanketed in white, deadened the usual sound of strife. Sages have stated, and truly, that few things arc as silent as falling snowflakes, and these, on this day, were especially silent. Tech and Glenville, only dimly visible, slid and shuffled through shortened quarters, punting frequently. And in the end, it was written in the snow that Tech had won from Glenville, 6 to 0. And the field cleared and the stands cleared and a hush fell over all, for the flakes signified the end. and the end is always sad. And thus, as the movie sub-titles have it, ends the story.

But Fate, who had for some considerable time regarded East Tech with an approving eye, pondered deeply and finally shook his shaggy head. Nothing doing, he said in faultless English. So it came to pass that when early March arrived to seal the doom of the cage era, Central and Collinwood flouted the flag of victory, while East Tech, in a manner of speaking, hung listlessly over the railing. A dark horse in the Senate race, East Tech developed into a genuine menace among the quintupeds until forced to retire, on account of too weak a back. It finished in a tie for second place together with several others of the commoner herd after a season cluttered with a wide assortment of thrills and throbs, grins and groans, and every now and then a sob or sigh. Although it must be actually admitted that East Tech’s wicker artists did not win a championship, nevertheless they did make one of the best, if not the best, records of last winter. In a schedule embracing fifteen fierce engagements. East Tech flourished a leaden sceptre with remarkable and telling effect. A faint breeze, dispelling the smoke of battle, revealed nine victims decorating the landscape. The six remaining aggressors managed to make good their escape with trivial one or two point margin conquests. Eric V. Calhoun, coach a la carte, to say nothing of table d' hote, produced the impetus which kept Tech soaring at the top of the Senate sky until the deadly blows of Central and West crashed down to make a general mess of things. Affecting a slcight-of-hand style of coaching, Mr. Calhoun assembled from what appeared to be an unpromising group of athletes a quincunx which, in rapid succession, blasted the aspirations of six scholastic basketball quintuplets. These six, if we say so, were the Alumni, Shaw, Longwood, Holy Name, Cleveland South, and John Adams. Then, as though struck by a bolt from the well-known blue, Tech crumpled before Akron South. Was this an omen? At any rate, East Tech won its next game with West Tech and followed this up with a victory over Glenville. Then things began to happen. St. Ignatius snatched a close victory, creeping up stealthily from the background in the final moments of play and wielding the rubber dagger just as the gun spoke. It became a habit. Central won. West won. At the Akron tourney, the angelic St. Vincent won. In the last act of the drama. East stalked out on the stage in a red cloak, tugged at a pair of fierce mustachios, hissed, and drew the vengeful sword of a Nemesis. Soon after, a bell rang somewhere offstage and the curtain descended. Mobily.....................V........................Metti . Carlson....................A.....................

Hey! Let's run!” Being a gentlemanly lot. the stalwart youths harkened attentively to Mr. Fair-grieve’s simple words of wisdom, and having thus harkened, sprang to their feet and ran. Thus was East Tech’s track team assembled this spring to grapple with its customary schedule of hand-picked athletic exhibitions on the cinder-carpeted pathways of the city and outlying districts. Goaded on by their zealous coach, the Tech runners invaded Public Hall (of which you may have heard) to ravel about in the C. A. C. track outburst. In this inaugural spectacle, several Techites spread themselves around the oval and flashed ahead of the field. Among these notables were Johnson, Captain Breaux and Kolbe. Space, of which there is always a scarcity, prevents a full and thorough tabulation. Five furious attacks on rival track tribes followed in the wake of the C. A. C. affair, Tech toeing the mark with West Tech, Lakewood, Northern Ohio, John Adams, and finally the entire Senate organization, a struggle worthy of being referred to as titanic. History, with its infinite pages, records the details of what has been. Who are we to say, haunted as we constantly are, by the grim spectre Space?

Frost In deadly fear of the consequences which would result should they schedule a meet with the supposedly powerful East Tech swimming team, various aquatic arrays declined to heed polite challenges flung at them by the local athletic headquarters during the recent season. Thus ignored, Tech was flung into a pool of depression, and its swimming exhibitions were few and far between, if we may be pardoned for a bromide. It was rather an uneventful year on the water. It may, we trust, be announced that the fear which clutched at the palpitating hearts of other schools was instilled by the fact that Tech won the intcrscholastic meet in the previous campaign. East Tech’s magnificent strength eventually proved to be a mere myth, for, though reasonably formidable. Tech went under in one of its three encounters. The season, if such it may be called, was inaugurated February 11 with Glen-ville furnishing the opposition. Glenville sank like a sponge, 52 to 3. The following Friday, however, saw the fierce octopus of defeat uncoil its extensive tentacles and draw the Techers down for a 45 to 21 also ran. The regatta was staged in collaboration with our friend the aristocratic Shaw High of East Cleveland, which indulged, if we may say so, in a ripple of laughter at our expense. The season ended when East Tech. West Tech, and West breasted the foaming whitecaps in a triangular exhibition. The final score read: East Tech 42; West 20; West Tech 4. 1 119271 ID One hundred five a JLJNE BUG t 19 2 7 ni • : ri927n hd On hundred six BUG 10 j_ uuNE.-. |]jjt EPTEMBER Back again, just to let the “flats know that the lunch room is on the fifth floor.

The harsh clang of armor—“My lord, the Rendezvous? a heavy frown upon the stem face of the baron—the musical jingle of spurs in the silence of the ruined castle—the clarion call of a bugle echoing through the musty walls—the diamond-bright flash of a sword—a hushed moment of prayer—whisperings—the neighing of a charger—The Rendezvous! Do we now whisper thrillingly, “The Rendezvous? Oh no, we catch a hurried glimpse of the accusing clock which proclaims that even now we should be very properly hurrying into class. We hug our books preparatory to a spirited sprint down the fast emptying hall, and fling over our shoulder. Meet you in front of the Aud! And meet in front of the Aud, we certainly do. In fact, the whole school seems to be doing that. Over there, a group is industriously discussing the relative merits of Nitrogen and Tungsten lamps, while on the right are a select group of companion souls who are demonstrating to an admiring audience the latest Charleston step. Here is a sober junior enthusiastic over the Greek figures on the door, but there a cocky sophomore is studying the elegance of his brand-new Oxford bags. A much astonished senior is wondering how she ever managed to get through the math test, and a demure flapper is taking a last hasty dab on her already overloaded little nose! Any marvel that the front of the Aud is a very human and amusing place? But of those who attended Tech before us—how many have met here for the latest thing in school gossip, how many have gathered here for a moment of mental prayer before going into the clutches of that dread monster, the Final Test? If you really want to know, come sharp on the stroke of midnight to the front of the Aud. You will be alarmed at the number of pale, wistful wraiths who hang over the railings and crowd the steps of the Aud. “Even as You and I! Ghosts in highly starched blouses, you will see—ghosts with hair combed high in towering pyramids—ghosts with enormous high collars—ghosts sporting glittering gold watches heavy enough to sink a ship—ghosts, ghosts, ghosts, of former Tcchites who steal back in the night to be just kids again—we, too, shall steal back to frolic in front of the Aud—to frolic in the Tech Rendezvous!

It seems that his teaching is long past and done, But still he continues to have all his fun. On all the late news he’s still up to the minute; If you want a good yarn, he surely can spin it. The careers of our friends he knew them en masse. And soon we were learning the fate of the class. Clarence Hummel, poor fellow, is minus one eye, For he winked at a girl when her husband was nigh. Gilbert May, famous dandy, he later on tells, Has acquired a great fortune by giving marcels. ’Bout mission’ry Grace, we're sad as can be; She was served upon toast at a cannibal’s tea. Dick Morgan, in Europe, alas and alack, Loved too well Monte Carlo, and had to swim back. Though twenty-five years have elapsed, yet you see That Gunner’s still getting his college degree. And then since Barrymore's quite lost his fame, Bill Bertalan’s acting has won a great name. Dean Powell, still keeps to her usual state With never a night without a real date. Esther Valyo still orates. Her husband, poor man, Has to hear her while wielding a frying pan. Norman Eis'nman, the world's fattest man, Will make money for Barnum, if anyone can. Mildred Douda in Hollywood now may be seen, A temperamental movie qu-een. Em'ly Payer's emporium now sets the pace— Go to her right away when you need a new face. And so through the list he rolled smoothly along, This one was married, this famous in in song. Till the epic's conclusion seemed drawing quite near And we started up, sudden, in trembling and fear. Hence a hasty retreat, we wisely then made To keep our own, personal affairs in the shade. —Alice Green.

There was a young freshman at Tech Who always was tardy, by heck! When his teacher asked why, his only reply Was, I waited till Ma washed my neck!” When a young man decides to go to college it may be because: 1. His mother wants him to go. 2. His dad has promised him that roadster if he will go. 3. His best girl lives in the college town. 4. All his friends are going. 5. He wants to make a name in college athletics. 6. Or, to get a higher education. Mrs. Hoffman: Why are you home so early? George: Oh, merely a matter of principal. 1 H9271 t One hundred twelve x JLJJNE BUS P 1. E. I’alyo 2. A. Bluck }. A. Green 4.

DURSTINE'S SOLILOQUY To flunk or not to flunk: that is the question: Whether 'tis nobler in the mind to suffer The slings and arrows of the outraged June grads , Or to disregard the grades below fifty. And by ignoring pass them? To pass, to leave, No more; and by a grade to say we end The dumbness and the thousand stupid questions That I am heir to, 'tis a consummation Devoutedly to be wished. To flunk, to stay, To stay: perchance return; ay, there’s the rub; For in returning they arc here to show Stupidity as would make patience groaning, Call’t self fretful; there’s the respect That forces teachers to pass on June grads.

HOW TO FIND MISS GRANT This is a task that should be undertaken only by those of much patience and unfailing strength. Upon finding that you must sec Miss Grant about a very important matter and that you must see her immediately, proceed to her “Den,” the little room just south of the office, which is her home on the rare occasions when she is not occupied elsewhere about the building. Of course, she isn't there. You didn’t really expect to find her that easily. The next place is the main office, Mr. Bathrick’s and Mr. Hawkins’ included. These places proving Miss Grantless, you proceed to the Aud where she may be if there is a dramatic performance of any kind under way. “Yes,” someone will tell you, “she was here just a few minutes ago, or wait, maybe it was longer than that. Yes, it was an hour or so. No, 1 have no idea where she is. With this ringing through your head, you might try the dispensary where she may be tending the hurts of some unfortunate, the library where she may be looking up some literature for her Palladium Girls, the gym if there is a social gathering of any kind, or almost any place where there is something to be done, but 1 am certain that unless you are a far luckier person that 1, you will not find her. After four years of experience I have learned that there is only one thing to do on such an occasion. It will save you much weary, useless tearing around the building and will bring just the same results, and that is this: If you really want to see Miss Grant and she isn’t in her little office, just stand in front of the Aud and wait until she goes by. That’s about your only chance. rMfi • - t One hundred twenty-four a a GUJNE BUG 3 n _____iwr p One hundred txi-enlyfive a GU1NE BUG J cylutographs T1927T --------3 One hundred iwenty-fix a GUISE BUG P o4utographs £Z irfB 10 0ne hundrtd twenty-seven
