Metts Principal [2] WE did not ponder long when we came to dedicate this Annual. Unanimously we voted to dedicate it to one who put the pal in principal. What student does not know him for a friend? During his eight years of service at Shore, our school has ex- perienced its greatest growth. Instead of a high school of twenty-two students, we now have graduating classes of that number. This material growth in equipment and enrolment has been accompanied by a marked improve- ment in scholarship and athletics. In appreciation of the large part he has played in increasing the worth of Shore we dedicate this book to DANIEL E.

Delphic 3; Orchestra 3, 4; Glee Club 3, 4; leader 4. When next the Traveler peers from the PORT- HOLE, he perceives a young chap demonstrating Darwin's theory to a group of feminine admirers. Ah, these young people, murmurs the Traveler, gazing sympathetically at Joe Kremm And all the nobleness of the place Is in thy heart and on thy face.

Shoronian 1, 2, 3; Debaters' Club 4; Associate Editor of Magazine 2. Startled by words that come distinctly to him through the PORT-HOLE, the Traveler hears a low mumbling book, look, cook; rat, mat, cat; bake, rake, cake . Two bright brown eyes are staring thoughtfully. A poet, surmises the Traveler. Brenton Herman By diligence he wins his way.

Nearer and nearer comes the picture of Shore. The Traveler stands entranced at his window. Across his vision flashes a boy bending over a paper and drawing the most grotesque images imaginable. Cartoonist the Traveler says to himself. Marie Guenther (Mickey) To live in hearts we leave behind Is not to die. Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 4; Secretary 4; Treasurer 3; Delphic 1, 2, 3; Orchestra 3. At that moment there is an interruption in the nature of a reluctant little dog, being pulled along by his mistress. The Traveler loiters fascinated. But you must learn something, he hears her say. Oh, oh, thinks he. Do dogs go to school, too, in this day? John Kleifeld (Johnny) Let us enjoy pleasure while we can; it is never long enough. Varsity Football 2, 3; Varsity Basketball 3; Track 2, 3; Glee Club 3; Delphic 3; Athletic Association Vice President 4. Then his gaze fastens on a young lad eating ice cream. He can't fool me, laughs the Traveler. That boy is wholly absorbed in that beauty by his side. [7] TH I Pill - NOLI 1926 Laura Kinney A woman's strength is most potent when robed in gentleness.

The Traveler rubs his eyes, as he peers at the next revelation of the PORT-HOLE. In a typewriting room sits a dark-eyed maiden. Typing a business letter? he wonders. But 'tis a queer business letter which begins 'Dear Eddie' . Kenneth Vogel (Ken) Self conquest is the greatest of all victories.

Oh, oh, oh! roars the Traveler as he sees through the PORT-HOLE a young lad blowing his front teeth out trying to make a soft basketball hard. Here the view of Shore is clouded by a sudden gust of wind. The Traveler, leaving his position at the PORT-HOLE, sits down to rest.

FOOTBALL REVIEW Early in September Coach Van Deusen sent out the first call for football candidates. About 35 responded. Among them were several letter men of last year. Our new coach began by teaching the boys the fundamentals of the game and getting the men into form physically. He stressed most the scientific side of the game, teaching them to use their heads, and the easiest way of doing things correctly. He kept them hard at work learning to tackle properly, to run the ball, and to make themselves important cogs in the machine known as the football team. The squad was soon cut down and enough material kept to make a first and second team. Day after day the coach and boys worked and sweated, until at last a varsity was picked, and the team lined up for the season. The varsity was as follows: Speed Jackson and Hack McGrath, two good ends from last season; tackles, Yurglic, a new man, and Joe Kremm, of last year's team; guards, Nick Pilla and Roxy Montana, two green men. Dick Timms, a letter man, held down the center position. The backfield was the coach's big problem. The first starting lineup was Kleifeld at quarter, Jennings and Bestgen at the halves, and Osborne at full. Watkins was the utility man of the team, playing anywhere from one end of the line to the other and finally ending up in the backfield. Frequent changes were made in the backfield; Kleifeld's ability to run the (Continued on page 36) [11] -Thel c oo-rei s A Fowu .JZr A J0OU6 WOT A -PP.3S ft cofyit Ttte TePit t t- Te.pilTKTEtT A FARMER'S INTERPRETATION OF BASKETBALL TERMS [12] fll P§If - H ® L I Back row: Coach Van Deusen, John Luikart, Eugene Borbely, Manager Kenneth Vogel, Dick Timms, Nick Pilla, Mr. Padgett.

BASKETBALL REVIEW Now that we have a perspective on the 1926 basketball season we can see how Shore came out in the race. The team worked well as a whole, but at times the shooting was erratic. We all hope for a better season next year. The only member of this year's squad who will graduate is John Luikart. Opening the season of the conference games with only one letterman and a stage-frightened team, Shore met their first defeat by Shaker Heights. The next two teams in line were West Commerce and Longwood. The Shore basketeers were on their toes and victory proved an easy matter in both cases. Euclid, our next opponent, gave our boys a heart breaker by defeating them for the first time in four years in a non-conference game. Then the Rocky River leather tossers tossed baskets until they made a decisive victory over the Shore quintet. Euclid's powerful team then came over on our floor for a conference game and the Green and White steam roller tried to take revenge but after hard fighting the brave players lost the game by a few points. The last team that our boys played was John Marshall. Both teams had started the season with a defeat. So a fast excit- ing game was witnessed by Shorites and the boys brought home their third victory. Captain Bestgen deserves a great deal of credit for the fine display of basket- ball that spectators witnessed. Bob Jennings, our star forward, played a hard game all through the season and had some real scoring records, while Gene Fryan and Watty Watkins fought hard to keep up the team work. John Luikart and Gene Borberly showed Coach Van Deusen that they were both able to get the jump at (Continued on page 39) [13] fll P§1! - lill Back row: Coach Van Deusen, Nan Colquhoun, Margaret Clymer, Manager Katherine Dowd, Margaret Gill, Miss Aingworth.

GIRLS' BASKETBALL While the Shore girls' basketball season was not a shining success as far as winning was concerned, it had its bright spots. The team work, basket shooting, and floor work of our girls kept their opponents on a fast jump. Some of their victims were Berea, Andrews Institute, and the East Shore Community Club. The teams that defeated them were Bedford, Shaker Heights, and Euclid Central. Captain Smith piloted her team with the greatest care. She completed her duty by working along with Nan Colquhoun in piling up the score. Katherine Dowd, our faithful manager, proved to be also a faithful forward. Margaret Clymer, our powerful jumping center, and Priscilla Easterling, her side partner, kept the ball moving in their zone. Margaret Clark, Alma Harwood, Margaret Gill, and Lucy Mathews made up the guarding crew which proved to be very strong, owing to the fact that our opponents had a running score of 116 while Shore tallied 164 points. The bright spots will turn into a shining sun next year. The only ones to leave the squad will be Margaret Clymer and Katherine Dowd. The timber of this year's squad will undoubtedly be the manufactured product of '27.

All the villagers had retired for the afternoon, undoubtedly waiting until the thermometer would come down to 98 degrees in the shade. Facultyville was a hot place. The dust had had a chance to settle in the old courtroom. The only sign of life was a fly, buzzing industriously about the Judge, who was snatching a little much needed beauty sleep. The screen door banged! The silence was broken. Judge Metts awoke with a start. In came Sheriff Stray, modestly escorting Susie Rosenberger and Sallie Doutt. The fly came to attention. Ah, here, at last, was some excitement. He careL.Hy settled himself and thus became the secret witness of the following dialogue. Judge Metts (yawning terrificly) — Hello, there. Don't bother to knock. What's the trouble now? Sheriff Stray (proudly) — Your Honor, I found these two prominent citizens of Faculty- ville having a heated argument. Judge (mops his brow) — It must have been about the weather. Sallie Doutt — Your Honor, Susie Rosenberger had the nerve — Susie Rosenberger — Your Honor, she's got it all wrong — (Enter Millie Crampton, the Courthouse secretary, with a brief case.) Mill ie (gayly) — What's this about nerves all wrong? I just got a fine prescription from Doc Leonard for soothing nerves. It's six tablespoons of vinegar, one teaspoon — Judge — Excuse me, but will you please summon the jury? It looks like an interesting case. Ladies, be seated. (The jury scrambles in.) Mike Padgett — Get off my chair. Can't you see I've got my hand on it? Joey Harter — I tagged it first. Lucie Aingworth — Don't rush, boys. There's lots of room in the back row. Henry Spangler — Save me a seat, Joe. Willy Maddock — Ouch! That was my foot. Miss Emmie Crone — I want to sit on the end. Jennie Mitchell (to Willy) — Take your finger out of my eye, please. Mollie Darst — Oh, Henry, move your head to the left; I can't see. (Judge Metts taps desk with croquet mallet.) Judge — Silence in the courtroom. Now, let's get down to work. Attorney Swartz enters. Judge — Ah, we shall now proceed. Miss Swartz — The first question — what? Sheriff Stray — A heated argument. Judge — No interference, please; there's enough static as it is. Continue. Miss Swartz— Who? Sallie Doutt — Susie Rosenberger — Susie Rosenberger — Sallie Doutt — [28] TBI P§lf - if © L Judge Metts — Yes, it is very apparent. Please continue. Miss Swartz — When? Sheriff Stray — At 2:15 sharp, Eastern Standard time. Miss Swartz — Next, where? Sally Doutt — In Susie's kitchen. Susie Rosenberger — No sir-e-e-e, it was out in the yard. Miss Swartz — Please be definite. I presume you mean the argument when you say it . Well, let's compromise and say the argument took place on Susie's back porch. Judge (to the jury) — Is that satisfactory? (Lucie Aingworth sits up with a start.) (Mike Padgett hastily removes his feet from the railing.) (Miss Emmie Crone and Jennie Mitchell cease their chummy conversation.) Henry Spangler — Your Honor, we agree unanimously. Miss Swartz — Next, why? (Sally Doutt and Susie Rosenberger commence to talk and motion wildly.) Judge — Now, one at a time. Sally, you tell us what's the matter. Then Susie can tell us next. Please articulate clearly. Sally Doutt — Yes, Your Honor, as you all know, Susie lives next door to me. Well, my side porch faces her house, and unluckily, it is the only place where one can be com- fortable in the afternoons. I went out there this afternoon and was just getting settled when the most insulting odor reached my nostrils. What do you suppose Susie was cooking? Glue! ! ! Judge — What would she want with glue? Sallie — Well, you know how many dishes she breaks? I guess she just decided to have whole dishes for a change instead of just pieces — Miss Swartz — I see a flaw in your argument. How do you know it was glue? Sallie — I have a very good nose. Susie Rosenberger — Now let me explain. I was just cooking dinner. Sheriff Stray — What, do you eat glue? Susie — Who said anything about glue? I was just boiling cabbage! (Judge breaks the silence.) Judge — Har-har-har — that's a good one. Ha-ha. Sallie — But I know it was glue. Susie — Well, if anyone ought to know, it ought to be me. Judge Metts — Jury, you may adjourn to determine your verdict. (The judge prepares to sleep again.) (The members of the jury go to the next room and seat themselves.) Mollie Darst — Now, how should we go about it? Miss Crone — Let X be the unknown. Joe Harter — No-no let's debate the question. Henry Spangler — Well, however we do it, we must have a conclusion. Lucie Aingworth — Yes, by all means. Jennie Mitchell — Well, let's sum up the facts. First, Susie has been cooking some offensive food; Second, Sally Doutt objects; Third, They have a quarrel; Fourth, We all come here to decide. Now, what's the decision? Mike Padgett — I've got it I Lucie Aingworth — What? the measles? Mike — No, the decision. Neither one is guilty. Miss Crone — Prove it. Henry Spangler — Never mind the proof. We've got the conclusion and that is all that is necessary, so come on. (Judge Metts awakes, and the case is resumed.) Judge — The jury will now give the verdict. (Henry Spangler rises gracefully from his seat.) Henry — Your Honor, we have found that neither Susie nor Sallie is guilty. Judge — Eh? Not guilty? How's that? Mike Padgett — It's this way. Sally Doutt said her porch was on the side facing Susie's home. Susie has to eat, so she cooked something. Judge — Yes, go on. Mike — .Well, can Susie help it if the wind carries the odor of her cooking over to Sally's porch, if Sally's porch is there to get all the odors? Judge — Very complicated. Continue. (The jury in unison) — Then the carpenter who built the porch on the side facing Susie's home so all Susie's cooking can be smelled by Sallie is to blame because — The fly wearied with so much intelligence, flapped out of the room.

McGrath then became quarter, and because of his uncanny ability to snag a punt or kickoff, also played defensive quarter. Osborne by his terrific line plunging, kept his same place on the team, at full; Watkins, having the honor of being the lightest backfield man in the city, was a big man both on offense and defense, and held down a half position with Jennings. Jennings was himself a wonderful tackier and ball toter. The first games of the season were practice affairs. Shore ran roughshod over Mentor and emerged on top of a 23-9 count. The strong Bedford team, with a line averaging 185 lbs. was next played and Shore was nosed out by an 8-7 score. Painesville, co-champion of Lake County and conqueror of the Glenville Senate team, was humbled by a 21-0 count in the next practice tilt. The two Fryan boys were declared ineligible, under the Northern Ohio Association ruling, so Coach Van Deusen lost two of his halfbacks. The new backfield had just one week of practice together before the first of the Conference games was played. The 1925 season, as declared by the sport writers, was the worst in thirty years in regard to the weather and playing conditions. Every game, with the exception of one, was played on a sloppy field. A muddy field is a handicap to any light team and Shore's was no exception. They had to play heads up football to hold their own with their usually heavier opponents. The big West Commerce team was the first on the Conference schedule, and due to the condition of the field, Shore, after being within striking distance on many occasions, could not run up a larger score than 12-0. John Marshall was next encountered and with Shore leading throughout the [36] KENMORE 57 1 i i i i j C. E. LUIKART j i Insurance ,- O0 18605 St. Clair Avenue CLEVELAND, OHIO Oil Is Cheaper Than Steel STEVENSON OIL CHEMICAL COMPANY Euclid, Ohio game, a bad break enabled the West-siders to emerge on top of a 10-9 score. Rocky River, the Greater Cleveland Conference champions of two seasons, was next tackled on the Shore home lot. Shore had the ball in Rocky River territory all during the game, and after Osborne snagged a pass to score the only touchdown against Rocky River all season, they pulled the same trick on us and the game ended 6-6. Willoughby was next met and Shore lost 13-6. Our boys next journeyed to the Longwood field at Kingsbury Run, to tangle arms, heads, feet, and what not, with the bottom ring team of the Conference. Shore was doped to win by a fairly large score, and after crossing the Longwood goal line on two different occasions, was called back on account of penalties. The game ended in a deadlock. Hubert Watkins was the star of the fray, inter- cepting about four Longwood passes for big gains. Shaker Heights, the greatest scoring team in and around Cleveland, next invaded Shore's domain with their stars, the Kuliner brothers. And before the largest crowd in Shore's football history Coach Van Deusen's proteges turned the trick and upset the dope bucket by lacing the Hill-toppers 7-6. Then came the last game of the season and with our deadly rivals — Euclid. We shall not say much about the game except to inform you that we lost 24-6. Speed Jackson played a wonderful game at end. Eugene Fry an. The Seconds The second team must also be given credit for their fine work and loyalty in coming out all season just to give the varsity practice. They had a strong combin- ation and it brought out all that there was in the regulars, giving them harder scrim- mages than some of the teams on schedule. No games were carded for the scrubs but we are hoping and looking forward to a regular second sked for next season.

Ben Test proved to be an able substitute and will be a promising member for next year's varsity. Kenneth Vogel proved an able manager. Shore made a very good showing when it went up against such teams as Mentor, Painesville, Spencerian and Collinwood. In the tournament Shore defeated Bedford and then was eliminated by Springfield. Taking everything into consideration Shore can be proud that she has one of the cleanest teams known. So just wait until next year when Shore will have its old fast working machine to put up against any team that comes into its midst.
