?3 1930 3n Mtmavwm Ellsworth Householder To live as gently as I can, To live, no matter where, a man; To do my best and let that stand, The record of my brain and hand. Ellsworth understood the true meaning of life and service. To him life was a sacred and joyous reality, and he continually radiated the spirit of help- fulness and good cheer. A young man of high and noble purposes, pure and worthy ambition. He loved his home, his Church, his school, and demonstrated his manly Chris- tian character in daily life. A devoted son, an ardent student, a good sportsman, a true friend, and a noble Christian, has graduated from the School of Life into the higher School of Eternal Values. Rev. Sidney C. Vernon.

Porthole History of Our School NE of Shore's first principals was Miss Roglin, now Mrs. Morris. In 1915 Shore graduated but two, Olive Frizzell and Gladys Smith. Shore and Euclid therefore combined their graduations. The same year the two schools decided they wanted a Senior play. The combined classes could not furnish enough material for the entire cast so the Juniors were asked to help out. The gym, a small affair compared to our present gym, could boast no stage. Mr. Stray succeeded in providing one building, an impromptu affair from wooden horses and planks. The girls made the back-ground and curtain of cambric. The proceeds bought Shore's first gift, a picture. The following year Shore attempted its first musical show, In a Japanese Garden. Two of the teachers sang the solos. There was no boys' Glee Club and girls from Junior High furnished the material for the chorus. Miss Roglin organized a girls' basketball team. It is interesting to know that she was but two years older than her Senior girls. She often found it necessary to play with them and for lack of competition often arranged games with the boys. During the same year, Mr. L. L. Marshall, a member of the School Board, taught civics, algebra and geometry in the afternoon, attending Eaw School in the morning. By the school year 1916-1917 Shore's Senior High could boast a total enrollment of 30. In 1918 what a splendid fall, Mr. Metts first entered our ranks as did Miss Aingworth. At this time there was no basketball league but Miss Aingworth coached a girls' team and developed some fine cagers. And imagine this if you can, none other than Mr. Metts coached the boys' athletic team. Believe it or not, these moderns danced every day during the lunch hour in the gym. The cafeteria just didn't exist, and each shared his box lunch with his neighbor while the teachers dropped their crumbs on the office floor. This year, The Country Doctor, directed by Mr. Metts, was pre- sented as the Senior play. Ted Bonnema and Geraldine Devoe played the leads. The Senior classes of Euclid and Shore held their Senior ban- quet at Euclid High School. Shore's first football team was organized in the fall of 1919. Joe Meyers, manual training teacher, coached the squad. Don't we all re- member those heroes he produced, Neil Smith, Jerry Gleitz, Homer Wat- kins, Ray Smith, Bill Gill and Johnny Christopher? The girls' basketball team was combined with Euclid's and our girls traveled back and forth over dirty, dusty roads to hold practice in the Euclid gym. In the spring of 1920, our old gym being enlarged to its present (Continued on page 78) Page eighteen
