JFnrnmirit As a review of the year that is past and a forecast of the years that are to come, may this annual of 1931 reflect the ever-living spirit of Jackson High School. Irftiratimt To the School Board of the Jackson Public Schools whose active interest and whose untiring efforts have resulted in the erection of our new high school building, this annual is respectfully dedicated. J. E. KINNISON Superintendent Emeritus luotp iarkam §riuuH Sloark (Editor’s Note—Owing to the many activities of the members of the School Board we were unable to secure their photograph. Jackson’s New High School Building stands as a memorial to the great work done by the School Board. Their efforts towards giving Jackson a beautiful educational plant were not hindered greatly in spite of the fact that the necessary funds were not readily forthcoming. The men we owe this great debt to are Charles Jones, President; Allie L. Stiffler. Clerk; Ralph Hamilton, Willard Potter and Dr. A. G. Ray. To help repay this debt and show our gratitude, the finest thing we students can do is to take good care of this wonderful building and act in it as we would our homes. For their splendid work, this Osky Wow is dedicated to them and we sincerely hope the students in years to follow will appreciate their tremendous efforts as we have. (0aki|-50mu VERNON W.

S’ntuir (Elaaa ijtatorg Seniors! The pride of the school! Is it po:;sibIe that we are the same as those who entered the high school four short years ago as poor bewildered unknown freshmen trying to follow correctly the rules and customs as regulated by the Seniors of that year? But now we are the dictators who are looked up to by the lower classmen. Do you 1 emember our freshman party—-that glorious party that was looked forward to for weeks ahead of time and the freshman play—how excited we all were to think that they were actually going to allow us to display our histronic ability? Then came those good old sophomore days where we were allowed to regain some of our pride which had been so severely warped by the scorn of the upperclassmen. Do you remmber the cold rainy night that we gave a pa:ty for our departing biology teacher who was about to embark on a matrimonial career, and the waffle iron that we so proudly presented to her? Oh! wouldn’t it be great to live just one of those weeks over again. What profitable and fruitful years those were. And now we are Juniors where we really begin to feel that we are a vital part of the school machinery instead of a nondescript part of the general background or atmosphere. This was the year we gave “The Lucky Break” and oh what fun we had during practices and how scared we all were the night it was given, because if you remember it was given on Friday 13th. The cast however, overcame this super-stituous jinx and the play went off with a bang,—scoring a hit which is yet to be surpassed. After the play, the next big thing was the memorable Junior-Senior which was given in May and which we all attended dressed in our new togs and trying to feel at home in our fluttery formals. gloves, high heels and corsages all of which were probably brand new experiences for the greater number of us. So passed our first three years in the high school and now we have come to the end of the most intellectual year of our conquest for an education. For one year we have been living the life of attempting to set ideals and definite patterns which may be successfully followed by the classes that are to follow us just as we did when we were playing a minor part within the portals of the Jackson High School. May the memory of this renowned class be held in the hearts of those who have known them eminently as the leaders of their school and may they reap as much success in the future as they have in the past. ©sluj-HImu (Cmmmntnmuntt Prugntm iSinh i rluinl Auidtorimu V V i � fflai) 28, 1831 Theme: “Studies Serve Us for Delight, for Ornament, and Ability.” Invocation Salutatory—“Launched, but not anchored”.................................Helen Jenkins “Dreams, books, are each a world; and books, we know, Are a substantial world, both pure and good” Laveta Arthur, Henry Brookins, Eleanor Damron, Evalena Riegel Vocal Solo ................................Robert Whitaker “Life’s Measurements”..................................................Robert Ervin “The Way tc a Man’s Heart” Pearl Davis, Dorothy Freeland, Bonnie Jenkins, Virginia Long.

When the great day arrived on which we undertook our tremendous task we found that our ways were divided. Some began the commercial course, some the classical, and still others the scientific. But we were all initiated into the high school life, and into the most terrfying studies we had ever encountered. Soon we over came our timidity, however, and began to stand on our own feet; and before long we elected our officers: President, Blanche Jones; Vice-President, Mabel Kearins; and Secretary-Treasurer, Gwendolyn Knox. Our second year we began school with enough self-confidence for Seniors. But we soon found that we had great trials ahead of us yet—trials that no one who has not been through the mystery of Caesar and the maze of geometry, will ever know. But again we mustered all our courage and came to the front, this year with different leaders. They were: President, James Thomas; Vice-President, Blanche Jones; Secretary, Elizabeth Casely, and Treasurer Evan Davis.

We felt fully grown-up. now that the Seniors could no longer give us that supercilious stare accorded the Freshmen and Sophomores. This last year is marked for the production of “Dulcy” and by the marvelous Junior-Senior in our new high school building.

(Diskij-lfliiui Smtuir-S rmar j frrptinn The outstanding social event of the year was, for the first time, held in the beautiful new high school auditorium on May 9, when the Juniors were hosts to the class of 1931. The color scheme of the Junior class colors was carried out in all the decorations. Following the program, dancing was enjoyed by many for the remainder of the evening, and interesting games by others. The success of the occasion was due to the efforts of the class officers, the social committee, the decorating committee, and to the cooperation and supervision of various members of the faculty. rlutnl On May 14 and 15 oui high school auditorium was used as the scene for the School Eisteddfod. This is an annual event which creates much interest. This year the Eisteddfod was judged by many as the best yet held. Competition was very strong and those who did not receive prizes had the satisfaction of knowing that they had worried the winner. Professor C. C. Robinson very competently served as adjudicator. Professor Robinson is head of the music department at Ohio University and therefore is very capable of acting in this capacity.

How happy we were, when it became our privilege to enter the Sophomore Class! Urged on by their classmates, quite a few of our boys went out for football and baseball. Could they play? “And How!’ An even dozen were successful in making the team. It was surprising how many of the Sophomores joined the various clubs. Those with musical ability tried out for the Glee Club, and those famous Latin students who were able to make an average of B, were permitted to enter the Sodalitas Latina. Others found interest in: Home Ec., Biology, Quest, and Hi-Y clubs. Several were in the School Band. And some even had the courage to join the Debate Club. A few members were lost during the year, but to make up for this new ones enrolled. Among our classmates we have found students w'ith much talent, some of whom participated in the School Eisteddfod and other school activities. Considerable cooperation was observed among the students during the year; we only hope we might keep up the good spirit throughout our school career and may enter our New High School with even better accomplishments to our credit. ©aky-i®nui FRESHMAN CLASS OFFICERS President .....

That eventful day came on September 8, 1930 when we became f reshmen. Everyone knows the traits of a “Green Freshman” and we surely exhibited them during this first week of school. Football soon took our attention and quite a few of our boys entered this sport. Although they were not expected to make any spectacula-. playing their first year, nevertheless they all had plenty of training and experience. In November and April we submitted ourselves to two state tests, many of our students making good standings. We all patronized the clubs that we were eligible to. These included Latin, Home Ec., I. A. C., Debate, Quest Ciub and the Glee Clubs. With the advent of spring another sport in the form of baseball was played in whicn many of our boys took part. Our musical ability was displayed at the new high school opening in April and the School Eisteddfod in May, while only a few won prizes they covered themselves with glpry in competing with the upper classmen. Now that our Freshman year is over we are looking forward to our Sophomore year In the new building just as enjoyable and busy as this one has been.

Because of the lack of facilities few activities are carried on by these students. The separate histories of these two classes therefore are necessarily short, so they have been collected into one which you will find on this and the following page. It was a beautiful morn in September the year 1929-30 that we presented ourselves at the Central Building as members of the Junior High after a six years cruise through the grades. We started our journey for “Wisdom” from the following stations: Westover, Mound, Portsmouth St., South St. and Central Building. Many who started from the first stations did not continue the voyage. After a few weeks our life settled to a regular routine, as we sailed out in deep waters, but with the aid of our good “Pilot” Mr. Sticklen and his able corps of teachers we completed our voyage through Junior High. Many of the two classes are members of the School Band with Prof. O. S. Van-over as the very efficient director. Much interest is shown in this organization and much has been accomplished.

To attain this end, she invites several guests for the week-end, namely; her brother Willie, Mr. Forbes (with whom Gordon is trying to make an important deal), Mrs. Forbes, and their daughter Angela; Vincent Leach, a scenario writer, who is in love with Angela, and Schouyler Van Dyck, who has a hallucination that he is a millionaire. Dulcy manages to gain the antagonism of Mr. Forbes, and she also manages the elopement of Angela, who, incidentally, returns married to Willie and not Leach.

New stage effects, a good play and a fine cast greatly contributed towards one of the best performances given by a student cast in Jackson. The play was provided wTith a good plot, snappy humor and everyday life. Judge Hardy’s race for judgeship keeps the interest high throughout. His daughter. Marian, also enters the political field, after attending college, and wins nomination to the State Legislature. Mrs. Hardy objects strenuously to such a course of action and finally leaves home when her other daughters. Myra and Estella, come home from their husbands. Andy, the kid brother, contributes humor by his love affairs and salesmanship. A wealthy engineer. Wayne Trenton, takes an interesting part as Marian’s suitor. The political campaigns of the Judge and Marian are verv efficiently managed by Stubbins. Two elderly parts in the play Aunt Milly and Grandpa, are very important and their words of wisdom are ve 'v well received. Mrs. Hardy proves to be the heroine of the story when she gets Myra and Estella reconriled w th their husbands. The Judge is successful in his political campaign as is Wayne Trenton in his matrimonal campaign. ©«ki|-I0mn dlarkamt’a lOanfi The Jackson School Band has now completed three years of active service in the Jackson Public Schools, under the leadership of Edward S. Vanover, graduate of U. S. Army Band Masters’ School at Washington D. C. and himself a musician of no little ability having been a member of Royal Scotch Highlanders, U. S. Army, the Armco Band and numerous others. Three concerts have been given, one each year, and all were received enthusiastically by the public. Prestige and pep were added to the football games by the presence of the Band which appeared at nearly all of the local games. There are 80 members in the band which consists of the following instruments: saxophones, trombones, drums, bass drums, cornets, trumpets, clarinets, melliphones, sousaphones and cymbals. Many were chosen along with numerous pupils of school bands of the nearby cities as members of the Concert Band which participated in the contest at Huntington. Great interest and ability is being shown so that in years to come Jackson is sure to become the home of a very prominent group of musicians.

For four consecutive years they have battled their way to victory in the Southeastern Ohio Eisteddfod and when the National Eisteddfod was held the glee club again came through with the banner victory. Each year the club contributes its talent to a musical which is given in collaboration with the Boys Glee Club and the Junior High. Only the highest type of music is sung by the club and great proficiency is being acquired in individual work by the members. The high school Eisteddfod is always one of the main activities of the school and is held successfully every spring. Prof. R. R. Thomas has had charge of the club for four years. Miss Schellen-ger is the talented pianist. Bnya ( 1pp (Ehtb The Boy’s Glee Club met soon after the opening of school and elected their presiding officers. The advantages of this organization are testing of voice, further instruction in technic, experience in group singing and appearing before audiences.

The club rendered six numbers which were received very appreciatively by a large audience. Professor R. R. Thomas is our able instructor.

Another purpose of their club is to learn how to have a good time in the right way. Although their meetings consist of solos and talks they spend most of their time playing games. Experience in taking charge of meetings is one of the clubs many advantages, as each boy takes some part in the programs. Next to the Junior-Senior banquet I. A.

Los Fanfarones meets one night each month and the meetings are carried on according to parliamentary proceedure. La Senorita Rimer, our chairman, is also our very capable faculty adviser.

Regular meetings held once a month are carried on according to parliamentary law. Probably the most interesting parts of the programs were the more advanced experiments and demonstrations which were performed by the students. Some of the members received ideas at these meetings which stirred their enthusiasm to remain in the chemistry field. Prof. Clarence B. Hune is the capable faculty adviser of this newly founded club.

Si. £ . ■ 1931 - 3FnutbaU - A iKcitinti nf tlir 1U3H £ paamt Although handicapped by the loss of star players by graduation last year, the Jackson High School football team have to their record a fine season. Chillicothe was our first opponent. This game, which was played in Chillicothe was a hard one. It looked as if the contest was going to end in a scoreless tie, when, in the last few minutes to play the opposing team got possession of the ball and made a touchdown. The game ended in favor of Chillicothe 6 to 0. The fol’owing week our boys journeyed to Oak Hill for the second game of the season. This contest was well attended by J. H. S. students and local citizens. But this spring support seemed to be of no help to our team for the game ended in a scoreless tie. There were a few times when it looked as though we were on our way for a touchdown, but it couldn’t be done. Unlike the team cf the preceding week, was the local eleven when they met Nelsonville for the first home game of the season. Our backfield worked brilliantly, the game from the start to finish was one of fast, snappy playing. Herb “Gapper” Greene scored four touchdowns, over half the number of total points made. The score was 41 to 0. Holy Redeemer High School from Portsmouth came to Jackson for the next game on October 18th. Our “Fighting We’shmen” carried out their name in this game also. The contest was a hard one but Jackson won, the score being 22 to 0. The first touchdown was made by Hess, a Sophomore. For a while, during the first quarter it looked as though Holy Redeemer would score, but they failed. Two punts were blocked by Robbins which resulted in scores. Lewis made a touchdown by intercepting a pass. Jarrell’s kicking and Exline’s line plunges stood out in this game. Two weeks late’ our gridders went to Logan, where they scored their next victory. Th’s game did not prove to be one of much interest because of unfair officials but by hard fighting our boys “brought home the bacon.” Jackson’s points were made by line plunges with Jarrell and Greene carrying the ball. The score was 13 to 0. On November 8th Gallipolis came to the local gridiron for the next tussle. This game started with the opponents carrying the ball. A gain of thirty yards was made by Jackson in the third quarter, but they could not get away from the strong Gallia County eleven. Near the end of this quarter Gallipolis broke through our defense and scored the only touchdown of the game. They made the extra point which brought the game to a close with a 7 to 0 score. This was Jackson High’s first defeat for three games. For the first time in history Jackson High School’s football squad played a Columbus School. This one was West High. Our warriors played there with the same spirit they had in all of their previous games. This contest was a “bang” from the kick-off until the end. By off-tack’e plays. West High made a touchdown in the first quarter but were unsuccessful in their trv for the extra point. They made their second six points in the second Quarter but did not make the extra point. The third quarter was one of hard playing on both sides for neither one wanted the other to score. Greene got the baff, on the kickoff in the last carter and ran eighty yards up the field, the most spectacu’ar play of the game. The ball was fum- ©skij-Hfnut - JfcwtbaU - A lUfiunu of tlir 1930 raaoti So let’s give three cheers for Coach Lee. the team of 1930, and all future teams, bled and West High took possession of it. Towards the last of the quarter they made a long run up the field for a touchdown and also kicked the extra point. The game ended in West High’s favor 19 to 0. New Boston was our next opponent. This game was played in the large Portsmouth Stadium where all the football games in and around Portsmouth are held. This contest was one of fine playing and good sportsmanship. During the third quarter. Greene made a touchdown and the extra point was also added to our score. One of the most spectacular plays of the game was in the third quarter when Jack Jarrell kicked a seventy yard punt. Wallace of New Boston set an example of a fine player, his playing was one of a fine athlete. The last quarter was a hard fought scramble but New Boston succeeded in making two touchdowns and the game ended in a 14 to 7 score. .... The annual Turkey Day battle between Jackson and Wellston High Schools was held in our neighboring town. The temperature was near zero, hence the crowd was smaller than expected but. we defeated Wellston by a score of 25 to 0. The initial touchdowns were made in the first quarter. Shortly before the end of the first half when the ball was in the center of the field, our boys were in possession of it, and it was the third play. Markham went around end and ran fifty yards for a touchdown. There was no scoring in the third quarter and the game at this point consisted mostly of punting. In the final quarter our boys worked the ball to the seven yard line where Wellston held us for two downs On the fourth down the ball was carried over making the score 25 to 0. Our new Coach, David Lee, has had a fine season. We regret to say that the team loses six of its twelve letter men. this year, by graduation. They are: Robbins, Jarrell. Lewis, Irons. Greene, and Wortman. Markham. Exline, Callahan, Wilson. T hite. Smales, Hess, and Flemington. are all expected to star again next year. With these and some promising Freshmen we are looking forward for another big season. Greene was high scorer for the year, having made nearly forty points. He was for owed by. Maikham, Exline, Callahan, Jarrell, Lewis, Robbins, Hess and Wortman. Herb Robbins was elected captain of the team of 1930, at the close of the season. 1931 (fDakij-IBmii Mapes, Stevens, Markham.

Our boys entered the season with eagerness and enthusiasm. They had beer-handicapped greatly on account of the muddy condition of the field, and could not practice. Theiv first game was on April 15. with Gallipolis on the local diamond. Gallipots won the contest with a 4 to 0 score. Mr. Lee assured us that with continued practice and experience he would develop a stronger team.

About the first thing purchased for our Lab was a first aid kit and those fumes—they penetrated even to the library and there was a rumor that Shakespeare coughed. 20 degrees below and was it cold? Well, maybe it wasn’t quite 20 degrees below, but it was so cold that between halves the team had to eat icicles instead of drinking water. But we won and it was one glorious day in every way—gee, it sure was cold. B-r-r-r! Once more the dust had to be removed from the Seniors’ brain cells. If anyone got a fair grade on this test, they were good. It was said that nervous prostration was narrowly avoided by some of our more sensitive Seniors. Two weeks to play. Of course Santa was good, but not so gcod that he brought us the news we had been expecting—What was that wish?—to get in the new high school in January. Last play in the Grand Opera House—it was a good farewell too. Plenty of people to applaud and lots of things to applaud Ior i was a good play. Juniors. Your sweethearts should be proud of you—that is if you have any. (CaUutfoir High School Auditorium opened! It was really a great treat to sit in comfort and hear such splendid voices. Of course everyone of those in the concert were rather nervous, but no big blunders were made. We would have to say that. “Skidding” made a great hit as the first play in the new auditor -ius. A large audience was unanimous in their applause and in their opinion that it could have been a lot worse. Here’s to more good plays in a wonderful auditorium. And the morning after—but why remember the morning after when the night before was so good? The usual toasts (No, Freshmen not burnt bread) weie good as far as toasts go—but the real fun was the dance—and how! Everyone was all dressed up and it was a swell affair. O Sol Mio! says the quartet as it strives to gain two bucks. Of course the best man or men won but the losers had a hard time figuring out why they were not best. Well, here’s the catch, its too much night life, yes sir, too much. “And here is your dip'oma my little man.” At least we hope rcme of the Seniors got through. So long. Seniors, and if you are ever back this way, stop in and see us. So long. Hooray! the Osky Wow is out and school is over for one more year. Let’s hope when this is read that the comments will be foi -lv favorable towards the annual. If your grades are fair then take pity on this book and don’t tear it up—at least ’till tomorrow.
