He has established a high athletic reputation for M. H. S. by the champion football teams which he has coached and by the mile-relay teams that he has guided to state recognition. He h as built the reputation not only upon the honors which his teams have won, however; the best of sportsmanship and clean play have characterized his teams. The industrial arts department has accom¬ plished excellent work under his direction. The Hi-Y, the control board, the student council, and the awards committee have all profited by his advice, interest, and cooperation. We rejoiced in his promotion to a high posi¬ tion at Kent State College at midyear but re¬ gretted his departure from our midst. Foreword T HE 1932 “Scarlet and Gray” has been con¬ structed on a photographic theme, the purpose being to present views of the high school with their connection to various depart¬ ments of work. It is interesting to compare these views with the above picture, which shows the site upon which the school now stands as it formerly ap¬ peared. We wish to thank Mrs. George for her price¬ less guidance in the editing of this book. very corporation lias its executives who furnish the necessary capital and who guide the company’s transactions. In a like manner Mentor High School has its executives who provide the necessary instruction and who lead the school’s activities. The senior class during the last four years has learned, to truly value the guidance of these people and wishes to impress its appreciation for the help that they have so willingly given. S UCCESS in life is the proper and harmonious development of those abilities God has given us. In these days of eco¬ nomic stress the demand of the world for success is greater than ever before. During your stay at Mentor High School the school has endeavored to aid you in this development so that you will be qualified to meet the rigid demands of whatever field of en¬ deavor you choose to follow. How well you will succeed will depend upon how well you have prepared, for every accomplishment must he preceded by intensive preparation and training. Mentor High School will miss the class of 1932. Our interest in your success and welfare will carry on; may you not disappoint that expectation. I mnr Caroi. Adams B. E. A. Cleveland School of Art Art Beryl C. Brenaman B. S.

J. Ingersoll, vice presi¬ dent ; Mr. L. B. Booth; Mr. F. F. Frey: Mr. Arthur Leonard; and Mr. J. W. Hemphill, clerk. Mr. Frey, Mr. Leonard, and Mr. Hemphill are new members this year. They took the place of Mr. L. J. Dickey, Mr. Alva Cole, and Mr. Clif¬ ford Luther. The board, which meets once a month, has long been recognized for its capa¬ bility and efficiency in managing the business affairs of both the Ilia ' ll school O and the elementary schools of the town¬ ship. twelve A competent and reliable working class is necessary to any successful corporation. The laborers must be divided into different sections which specialize in various phases of work. An efficient and responsible student body is necessary to any school. In a like manner also the student body must be separated into classes. Each class has not only its individual course of study but also its own responsibilities for cei - tain school activities. SENIORS JEAN AHLMAN Whether we want a song or a piano solo, we call on Jean. Not only orchestra and glee club but also athletics and studies occupy her time. Be¬ sides, she is a Girl Reserve, class secretary, and a friend to all. VERNON ARMSTRONG The beat of the drum usually announces Vernon. In his boy-scout troupe Vernon finds a high position as “tom-tommer.” Yes, and with Mr. Hendry, too! Vernon tells us he’s particularly fond of American history. We know that by his grades. BARBARA CHURCH “Babs” has a friendly grin that is decidedly at¬ tractive; in fact, none of us find her hard to look at or difficult to talk to. She helps Miss Hilty in the library during spare moments, and “Babsy” likes her French! MAYNARD COLLISTER “Shorty” has acted as Mr. Masonbrink’s right- hand man in managing intramurals, and he has performed his duties very well. He has led his class to many a victory in soccer, also. Athletics certainly seem to be his “special specialty.” ELLEN CRAWFORD When we think of Ellen, we think of jolly, good- hearted, book-loving, friendly, scholastic, and a ho st of other adjectives that we’d like to have be¬ fore our names. We’ll always remember Ellen for those features in the Com-Mentor! RAYMOND COLLISTER Of the two senior Collisters, Raymond is the smaller and, perhaps, the more quiet, but he makes up for this in many ways. However, we find Ray a hard worker and friendly when we make his acquaintance. “Silence is golden,” Ray. fifteen SENIORS KATHRYN CROOKSHANKS Kathryn is very quiet, too, but somehow we like her quietness. Didn’t someone once say that he who would be wise must learn to listen? An ex¬ cellent typist and shorthand student, too, is Miss Crookshanks, you who are seeking secretaries. EMERSON DICKEY Our student council president, class vice-presi¬ dent, and business manager of tbe Corn-Mentor, Emerson Dickey, will now take the chair. He’s a scholar and athlete. Oh yes, Mr. Hendry identi¬ fies him as ‘‘first chair in the second fiddles.” EUDORA DAVIES A fellow classman named her “Fido” for no rea¬ son at all, and we know her now as “Fide.” She • has played basketball four years and captained the team in ’31. This year Jean relieved her of a three year job—class secretary. RAYMOND EDDS “Ray” is the senior scientist. Who doesn ' t re¬ member what a chemistry wizard he was last year? His H20 knowledge at times threatened to puzzle even Mr. Slotterbeck. “Ray” qualified to participate in the county quiz-book contest this year, also. CLYDINE DAVIS “Clyde” is a great pal of “Swede.” She has helped in the managing of girls’ intramurals. However, it appears to us that athletics must seem a trifle mild to Clydine, since she is so intensely inter¬ ested in present-day aviation. DAVID FREY “Dave” has a habit of giving the other fellow a square deal, if not more. That’s principally why we like him. “Dave” is an “all-around” star on the basketball court and the gridiron. He be¬ longs to the student council. sixteen SENIORS ALICE DICKEY “Al” lives just across from M. H. S. That’s why she always arrives with the ringing of the bell. A member of the Annual staff at present, she formerly belonged to the scholarship club and student council. How Alice adores her Ellen! THOMAS HAGAMAN Here comes “Whiffy”! We always know when “Whiffy’s” coming with his sly humor and fre¬ quent wise cracks. Football and glee club seem to hold the limelight during his high school days. By the way, he’s “Toosher’s” very first cousin. IRMA FRESHLEY “Dean” holds much stock in the “Katy and Toosher” company, and she receives high dividends in the way of friendship, too. “Dean”, an expert typist, was selected to punch the keys of her favorite L. C. Smith for the Corn-Mentor. CHARI.ES HOWARD Well, this is “Chuck ' s” first and last year, too, but we don’t hold that against him; in fact, we handed over our class “cash-on-hand” to him. Chuck was a bit of a hero on Mentor’s gridiron this fall, too. KATHERINE GERHARDT The most important thing about “Katy” is “Dave” —but then, why mention that? She is the en¬ acted leader of the triumvirate, “Toosher”, “Dean”, and “Dutz”. Happy-go-lucky “Katy” is not a bit hard to look at, by the way. EDWIN KELLEY Don’t get “Kelley” tangled with Walt, the Deputy Sheriff—that was the part he played in the junior play. He has a habit of being tardy, and his procrastination in attendance always calls for the famous remark, “Kelley’s late again!” seventeen SENIORS MILDRED GUNESCH Shall we tell all “Millie” does? All right. She writes for the Com-Mentor and the Annual, studies every lesson, sings in the glee; club, stops for¬ wards from making baskets, belongs to the Girl Reserves, helps in the library, and— RAYMOND KOCIS “Ray” came to us from Kirtland for his junior and senior years. Straightway he won high honor from not only M. H. S. but also Lake County when he placed first in the country oratorical contest. He is stage manager this year. AGNES HAGER “Ag” believes the old saying, “Valuable things come in small packages.” It didn’t take her four years to prove it to us, either! She sings, plays a violin, participates in athletics, and she will have charge of circulating the Annuals. HARRY KOEHLER Oh! Can “Peanuts” type? For future reference consult Miss Otto. He’s in Miss Shafer’s glee club. He does his daily good turn in Mentor’s troop of Boy Scouts. Harry hasn ' t told us his hobby, but we suspect “the wimen”! KATHLEEN HOFF “Kay” hasn’t had much chance since she’s only come here this year, but she was “something much’ at Eastern High School, Lansing, Michi¬ gan. She wrote for Eastern’s paper. She was a member of the Life Saving, Re porters’, and Art Clubs. EDWARD KUSHEN Aviation is Ed’s big ambition. He and his in¬ separable, Bob Paden, live in the shop—construct¬ ing models, drawing plans, and discussing me¬ chanics. He is not famous for seriousness in classes, and he has brown eyes that any girl would admire. Page 18 SENIORS GRACE JEWELL Grace makes a motion that she shall be a nurse. We all second the motion on the grounds that she is a good worker and a pleasing personality. The motion is carried, we hope. Grace makes a study of art. CARLYLE LITTLE Carlyle seems to believe that “trouble’s a bubble, and bubbles will soon fade away.” Anyhow, he always seems to be able to smile. Carlyle has been a worthy member of the varsity foothall squad for the last two years. EDYTHE JONES When “E. J.” isn’t being a good pal to someone, she’s secretary of our Girl Reserves. It’s per¬ sonality that counts in the long run, you know, and we set Edvthe up as our example. Oh ves. —“E. J.” WILLIAM LONG “Bill” is a permanent feature of the class of ’32. One can say “Bill” is first, the class pest; second, an actor and musician; third, an athlete; fourth, a student if he chooses to be; fifth, a good friend! JEAN KENNINGER Managing the circulation of the Corn-Mentor has caused Jean many extra steps and worries. This G. R. girl loves library work. In Jean we have found a truly good friend, and “a good friend is better than silver or gold.” DONALD LOOMIS “Orry” can be found almost anywhere at almost any time when there’s something doing. He is president of the senior class and Hi-Y, member of tbe student council, sport editor of the Corn- Mentor and Annual, and participant in dramatics. nineteen SENIORS MARGARET lCOLAROVIC Perhaps we shall remember “Marge” longest as we saw her every fourth period—walking down the hall with a sack of money, ready to assume her duties as cafeteria cashier. “Marge” is a Girl Reserve, and we like her smile! JOE MATTY Someone has said, “No thoroughly occupied man is ever miserable.” We all know that Joe is not only responsible but also hard-working. Perhaps, then, this is his philosophy. He was successful in winning a football letter this year, too. ALBINA LOPATICH “Beans”, the name that we have willed Albina, certainly does not imply her actual ability and capability and her pleasing personality. She has very ably managed the exchange department of the Corn-Mentor this year. “Beans” is also a Girl Reserve. EDWARD MUNRO One can always count on “Johnny”. “Like fathe , like son”: every one thinks “Johnny’s” grand! He’s in the glee club, and athletics hold a big- interest for him. Oh, yes, “Johnny” has a Ford which is as accommodating as the driver. LILLIAN NELSON “Swede” and athletics. Athletics and “Swede.” No matter how we turn them around we can ' t separate them. A girls’ team without “Swede” certainly wouldn’t seem quite right. Besides, she is athletic reporter for the Annual and the Corn- Mentor. JACK NORRIS Sometimes “Gus”, sometimes “John”, Jack is real¬ ly the “man’s man” of the high school; those who have his friendship value it highly. He has been in track, and has proved himself a good basket¬ ball player. More power to Jack! twenty SENIORS GERALDINE QUINCY “Gerry” can be called “’32’s Genius”; she does everything well! As editor of Com-Mentor and Annual, she shows real ability. She manages to lead all her classes, play in the orchestra, and act. She has lots of friends, has “Gerry”. ROBERT PADEN Aviator II : Robert “Louie” Paden! “Bob” and “Ed”, the M. H. S. reversible equation. Bob is a member of our student council, the Hi-Y, and he runs the “Lost and Found”. We also know him as an actor and an athlete. A fine chap, “Bob!!’ ETHELBELLE SCOTT Ethelbelle and Albina have teamed together to type the material for the Annual. Ethelbelle tells us that she likes to type; in fact, she selects typing and shorthand as her favorite studies. She also belongs to the stage decoration class. KENYON PALLANT Nobody dodges “Ken ' s” Ford. On the contrary, almost everybody likes to go places with “Ken” in it. “Ken” has played his “fiddle” in the or¬ chestra for four years. He also participates in athletics. He was assistant football manager this year. YVONNE SHORT “A thing of beauty is a joy forever.” Though “Vonne” is not a thing, she seems to carry joy along with her in a pretty face and an engaging way. “Vonne” types for the Com-Mentor and sings with the glee club. NORTHCRAFT PECK Almost everyone is ignorant of Northcraft’s hobby; he is trying to keep it secret. But officially, lie will some day be an inventor. He works hard at it, and he’s a Peck! He’s in glee club, and was freshmen class president. twenty-one SENIORS DORIS SPALLER Doris likes athletics, especially track. She is an expert high-jumper, and she’s good on the cinder track, also. Doris is a member of the glee club. Though quiet, she always has a smile and a friendly word for all. TRUMAN PRENTICE General 1 ublic, allow me to present Mr. Truman Prentice , Herman’s small brother. He has assets quite a tew in fact, and lie’s really not small. Why, he played some excellent football, this fall! He’s quite a trackster, too. MADELYN TEUSCHER 1 oosher is popular! Why? Well, she has snappy black eyes, and friendliness is a magnet that draws a wide circle of admirers around her. She has a pretty voice and dramatic ability. She is on the Com-Mentor and Annual staffs. ' JAMES ROY People smile when they hear “Jimmy” mentioned. It’s that contagious humor. In “Jimmy’s” com¬ pany, however, one never smiles; one laughs! He played a comedy part in the junior play, was junior treasurer, and helped Jack get ads for the Annual. SUZANNE WARE Believing that “variety is the spice of life.” Sue writes for the Com-Mentor and Annual, partici¬ pates in athletics and dramatics, leads cheers, studies, and sings. She extends her friendship to all; blest be that tie which binds her to us! JACK SANDBURG Jack says, “Laugh and the world laughs with you; cry but you know the rest. However, at times Jack condescends to be serious; for example, when he’s trying to convince advertisers that this really is not a time of depression. twenty-txoo SENIORS CECELIA WILSON “Sugar and spice and everything nice—” suggests “Cela”. You take hard work, a really lovely voice, nice black curly hair, acting ability, a de¬ lightful sense of humor, mix them all up, and the conclusion is “Cela”, the Girl Reserve presi¬ dent. ARRITON VERBSKY We’ll say that Arriton was most prominent in dramatics—the operetta and various plays. Next, he is interested in almost anything that suggests basketball. Third, he is a best friend of Emer¬ son. Fourth and last, “he’s a jolly good fellow.” IRENE WINTERSTEEN Irene represented the M. H. S. girls at the county quiz-book contest, this year. Last year she num¬ bered in the “Call of the Banshee” cast. She also belongs to the Girl Reserves. She says that her favorite study is English. ELMER WARNER Red hair in this case denotes a lack of temper and an excess of good fellowship. He’s big and athletic—“Red” is! One always expects to see him on the football field and basketball floor. Who doesn’t like men who blush? ■m JUNIORS John Booth “H arper’s” May Jean Agard “Scribners” Johanna Armstrong “Needlecraft Magazine” Arthur Canfield “Open Road for Boys” Clark Collins “Red Cat” Margery Bave “Vanity Fair” Gretchen Brown “M e-Calls” William Hauler “Woman’s Home Companion” Clifford Dean “Adventure” Ruth Campbell “For-um” Bertha Carrel “Scholastic” Clement Dewalt “Country Gentleman” Richard Dey “Outlook” Frieda Carrel Aviation” twenty-four JUNIORS Mildred Cartwright “The Blue Book” George H AUSMAN “Judge” Jack Hughes “Life” Eleanor Clause “Outdoor Life and Recreation Helen Dickey ‘ Delineator” Homer Hull “House Beautiful” James Jewell “The Ohio Farmer” Marjorie French “Good Housekeeping” Marion Hanks “Bill Board” Frank Liske “American Mercury” Edwin Logan “Sportsman” Virginia Heil “Drama” Marjorie Ingersoll “Musician” Ro GER LUSE “Cosmopolitan” twenty-five JUNIORS Hugh Magen “Aircraft Age” Helen Kluth “Ladies’ Home Journal” Elsie Kolarovic “Financial World” Leonard Marsh “Pathfinder” William Merkel “Golf Illustrated” Arlene Logan “Physical Culture” Jane Luther “Nero Movie” Kenneth Moore “Liberty” Dewitt Murphy “Ballyhoo” Anne Merkel “Vogue” Margaret Merkel “Independent Woman” John Murray “Advertising and Selling” Robert Norris “Ohio Motorist” Merla Mueller “Creative Arts” twenty-six JUNIORS Georgia Nutt “Everyday Life” Clayton Richter “World Tomorrow” Russell Robertson “Time” Mary Lou Peck “Books” Miriam Phelfs “Woman’s World” Joe Shandle “St. Nicholas” Robert Shanovver “Country Life” Betty Robison “Travel” Henry Von Lehmden “World’s Work” Valentine Slezinskas “Q S T” Robert Smith “Living Age” Harriet Smith “Current History” Margaret Roper “Postage and Mailbags” George Waldie “The Scientific American” twenty-seven SOPHOMORES Robert Amans Helen Allchin Harry Bissell Lillian Bleil Russell Boesch Dorothy Brady Carl Kehl William Frey Eleanor Cartwright G race Chandler Rose Cone Ed Cottrell James Crookshanks Anna Cuddeback Betty Dauler Ralph Davies Bes sie DeBrine John Dickey George Digby Ralph Drake Raymond Drake Paul Eyer James Garner Paul Glendinning Robert Haase Harriet Habberjam Eleanor Heinz Eleanor Hill Harland Howells Clarence Hunkin William Ingersoll William Kalsch Helen Kephart twenty-eight, SOPHOMORES Robert Lingafelter Doris Logan William Louden Virginia Lybarger Dorothea Martin Robert Mighton Marjory Morgan D ana Morley Dorothy Morley John Nunamaker Paul O rvos James Paden Patsy Pasini Robert Pinkney Alina Poole John Randall Malcolm Rosecrans Margaret Sandbur Sarah Schuster William Schwentner Thomas Scribner Stanley Shore Ada Smith Paul Summerville Rhea Spencer Kenneth Sprague Bernard Stear Alfred Taylor Helen Vash Edythe Wouters Eleanor Yard Sarah Schuster James Paden Page 29 FRESHMEN James Agard James Ahlman Betty Allchin Alvin Armstrong Milton Bave Alfred Bevington Jesse Beyer Arthur Bond Bay Breyley Russell Brown Roll in Calhoon Barbara Christen Edith Davies Ford Davis Beatrice DeWalt Robert Eaton Kenneth Edds William Ernest Lucille Evans Fred Fasham Charles Fatica Doris Fletcher Mary Fog Andrew Frazier Virginia Fulk Ralph Gano Charles Garcia Katrina Gruellmans Raymond Gunesch Dorothy Hanks Jane Hanks Amelia Harter Maurice Higgins Alfred Howells Martha Jarvis Ray Jenks Jane Jones Helen Jordan Jack Kalsch Jean Kalsch thirty FRESHMEN Alda Kelley Alice Kelley Thelma Kurth Frank Laskowski ■June Lingafelter Bill Linsz FJizabeth Luecke Henry Maurer Hubert Maurer Juanita Merwin Wilson Middleton Dick Moss Kathryn Murphy Merle Murphy Hazel Namestnik Jean Norris Louis Nunamaker Louise Nunamaker Robert Phelps Tom Poole Helen Prentice Anna Retzler Kenneth Reynolds Tom Richmond Janette Rodgers Vera Rosecrans Woodrow Russell Stanley Shanower Virginia Shaw Doris Smallwood Lorene Smith Kathryn Sprague Muriel S ' juicr Jack Summerville Floyd Waite Virginia Wallingford Clare Warner Sybil Wragby Katrina Gruellmans Charles Garcia thirty-one EIGHTH GRADE Laura Beavers Mae Booth Tom Breyley Lillian Buchter Laura Clark Virginia Clause Clarence Cole Lucille Cone Ruth Cunningham Sherwood Dille Marion Dodd William Edds Robert Frey June Glendinning Thomas Guthrie Mabel Habberjam Mildred Hanson William Harter John Hemphill Jack Ingersoll Ruth Koehler Lester Landin Joseph Laskowski Raymond Laskowski Willis Liske Betty Markham Adelbert Nolan Duane Phillips Carl Pinkney Edith Reichert Carrie Roper Josephine Smith Sarah Streator Virginia Stull Ralph Suts Kathryn Tear Carletta Treaster Lucille Treaster George Linger Winton Walker Bill Warren Albert Wouters Carl Pinkney Lucille Treaster thirty-two .

These are divided under the headings of organizations, music and dra¬ matics, and athletics. So many extra-curricular activities are of¬ fered at Mentor High School that there are very few students whose outside interests are not well accommodated. These interests give the student additional opportunity to develop himself and to assume responsibility and leadership. ORGANIZATIONS Organizations are very important in the journalistic, student governing, scholastic, school financial, and social fields. Respon¬ sibility, interest, ability, and personality all enter into the qualifications for mem¬ bership in these various groups. Actual rewards other than those of personal satis¬ faction and school appreciation rarely recognize the work done by these people.

The school of Journalism of Ohio State University judged the papers and awarded the Com-Mentor the first class honor rating. The Com-Mentor was also awarded first place honors in the Columbia Journalistic Contest and placed higher than any other Ohio school in its class.

The Student Council this year sponsored the annual carnival to help finance the Corn- Mentor, took charge of courtesy week, ar¬ ranged for a concert by the Lake County Band, bought a new flag, and made itself serviceable in any way it could for the school. It operated under the direction of Miss Jones. Emerson Dickey was chosen president of the council this year; Merla Mueller was vice-presi¬ dent; Ruth Campbell, secretary; and Dave Frey, treasurer. The council holds weekly meetings; the results are reported in home rooms.

At the organization meeting of the Mentor club the following officers were chosen: presi¬ dent, Ellen Crawford; vice president, Bertha Carrel: secretary and treasurer, Paul Glendin- ning. The two four year members are Sue Ware and Geraldine Quincy. A change in the qualifications for member¬ ship will enable more boys to belong next year.

Among the activi¬ ties of the club this year were initiation and recognition services, a style show, a booth at the carnival, and a number of hikes. Meetings are held every other Thursday after school. Presiding officers for the year were presi¬ dent, Cecelia Wilson; vice president, Merla Mueller; secretary, Edythe Jones; and treas¬ urer, Jean Ahlman.

Officers for the year were Donald Loomis, president; Emerson Dickey, vice president; El¬ mer Warner, secretary; and Robert Paden, treasurer. Robert Paden also has the extensive task of caring for articles lost and found in the building. At the beginning of the year Mr. Tischendorf was faculty advisor, and after his departure Mr. Casey filled this place. Mentor was represented at the annual state Hi-Y conference this year at Dayton by Robert Paden, John Murray, and Emerson Dickey, who reported a worth while program and an Donald Loomis enjoyable trip.

Mentor High School’s treasury system has functioned very favorably this year and there¬ fore deserves much credit. This system simpli¬ fies the handling of money and provides a good check on the credit of the school. The members of the board are the treasurers of all the classes and of the various social and dramatic organizations. All the money handled by them is eventually placed in the care of Elsie Kolarovic, general treasurer of the school. Miss Otto, who is the head of the commercial depart¬ ment, oversees all the business. Such organizations are found in schools of high standards, and they afford good training for those who are chosen to direct them. Elsie Kolarovic General Treasurer forty-four MUSIC and DRAMATICS T HE annual presentations of the glee club, junior class, and senior class are important parts of each school year. Dramatic and musical experience is afforded by these productions. Musi¬ cal training is also given in the orches¬ tra which is very highly rated. Orations and readings are features of annual school competition. Operetta “The Count and the Co-ed” T HE annual presentation of the combined glee clubs of M. H. S. was the operetta “The Count and the Co-ed,” by Goeffrev O’Hara and Geoffrey Morgan, given on December eleventh, under the capable super¬ vision of Miss Shafer. The story of this operetta is woven around the campus life at. Marden college. Mr. McSpadden, president of the college, has a daughter, Dolly, with whom Kenneth “Snooze” Andrews is in love. The president is greatly vexed over the problem and the necessity of raising the final fifty thousand dollars of the college endowment fund. At the beginning of the story “Snooze” encounters a difficulty with a traffic officer, whose motorcycle he has upset. Naturally, he takes to flight, asking two college friends to protect him. Since he has just procured a costume for the May festival which is to take place that evening, he acts according to the brilliant idea presented by his friends of disguising himself. In this disguise he is mistaken for the German Count Gustave Von Weinerheister, a guest whom McSpadden expects for the evening pro¬ gram. The Count is a likely benefactor for the endowment fund. “Snooze” carries out his disguise very successfully, even to the extent of crowning Dolly queen of the May, thus winning the favor of Dolly’s parents. In the end, “Snooze” confesses his identity to everyone, soon after which a registered letter from the Count is brought to Dr. McSpadden. This conveys a reason for his absence; it pronounces his favorable impression of one of the Marden boys, Kenneth Andrews, who that morning has helped him with his car. He was so impressed that he sent a fifty-thousand dollar check for the fund as a reward for Andrews’ courtesy. The story thus ends in a happy state of affairs as “Snooze” claims Dolly as his reward from the president. The principal characters were portrayed by William Long, Jane Luther, Merla Mueller, Bud Hausman, Sue Ware, Arriton Verbsky, Emerson Dickey, Virginia Heil, Arthur Canfield, Jean Ahlman, James Roy, and Margaret Merkel. A few weeks after this presentation, the cast performed a program at Painesville Harvey High in resume style. forty-seven Glee Clubs Fourth Row—Eleanor Cartwright, Sarah Schuster, Helen Allchin, Bessie De Brine, Betty Robison, Gretchen Brown, Merla Mueiler, Suzanna Ware, Mildred Gunesch, Anne Cuddeback.

One of the most outstanding of the numerous active organizations at Mentor Higli School is the orchestra, composed of selected students from the junior and senior departments. Many new instruments have been purchased and adopted this year by Mr. Hendry, the capable and favorite leader of several bands and orchestras in the county. They include a set of kettle drums, an oboe, bassoon, viola, flutes, and bass viol. The orchestra now numbers approximately fifty in membership. As an added and well-attended feature, the orchestra entered a festival which was given at Kent, Ohio, April twenty-second of this year. Thin festival was called a sectional affair, for it was divided in accordance with the several different sections of Ohio. Since there were no state or national contests this year, the festivals were the nearest substitute. The musical numbers played were the “Festal March” by Charles Wakefield Cadman, “Minuet” and “March Heroique” by Schubert. These numbers were also featured at the Music Festival which was held at Mentor High on May twentieth. forty-nine “Tke Laughing Guest” Second Row—Jack Norris. Emerson Dickey, Elmer Warner, Donald Loomis, Robert Paden. First Row—Arriton Verbsky, Kathleen Hoff, Yvonne Short, Madelyn Teuscher. Absent, Barbara Church. The class of 1932 successfully presented “The Laughing Guest,” a mystery farce-comedy in three parts, Thursday evening, May twelfth in the Mentor High School auditorium. On the evening of Mrs. Van Horn’s house warming in the old Hoyt mansion, an uninvited guest arrived, who glided hither and yon about the house in phantom like form, mocking everyone and everything that happened with a “Ha ! Ha !Ha! Ha! I am the Laughing Guest! Ha ! Ha!” Throughout the play excitement ran high with everyone under suspicion and all victims of thieving and unexplainable occurrences. Between gasps at the peculiar and weird happenings, the audience was conv ulsed with laughter by the antics and philosophy of the butler, Randall, and by Du Beck, an exponent of detectiveology, and his many strange disguises. Much credit must be given to the coach, Miss Henderson, and the cast, which included the following: Madelyn Teuscher. Donald Loomis, Kathleen Hoff, Elmer Warner, Yvonne Short, Jack Norris, Barbara Church, Emerson Dickey, Robert Paden, and Arriton Verbsky. Proceeds were devoted to the annual fund. fifty “Believe It or Not” A modern comedy, “Believe It or Not”, was presented by the junior class Saturday evening, February 27, in the high school auditorium. Events and circumstances all seemed to spring from the fact that Harriet Follis had advertised for a husband. She had been driven to this drastic action by the announcement of the fact that her uncle — the uncle who would leave her millions providing she married — was coming to visit her. Rather than to let Harriet marry herself to any sort of man who might answer the advertisement, Nancy Hamilton, her chum, decided to disguise herself as a man and pose as Harriet’s fiance during the uncle’s visit. On this basis “things happened”. Every¬ thing from humorous disguise to bubonic plague, suspected murder, and Mrs. Pottle’s being stuck in the fence took place. At last, however, everything became untangled and explained. The cast, under the efficient supervision of Miss Henderson, included Virginia Heil, Clayton Richter, Ruth Campbell, Jack Hughes, George Hausman, Richard Hey, May Jean Agard, Ann Merkel, Margaret Merkel, Elsie Kolarovic, Eleanor Clause, Mary Lou Peck, Leonard Marsh. fifty-one Orators and Readers Virginia Heil of Mentor was acclaimed the victorious reader in the 1932 Lake County Reading Contest with her presentation of “The Pretensions of Charlotte”. Paul Orvos represented Mentor in the County Oratorical Contest with his oration “A Solution for the Prob¬ lem”. Virginia’s reading was woven about a little orphan girl who constant¬ ly lived in the land of make believe, far removed from the cruelty and sordidness of her real life. Through hey pretensions she at last found love and happiness. Orvos’ oration discussed the present day conditions. Among other things he touched the Chino-Japanese situation and condemned the dole system and the hoarding of money. A preliminary contest was held this year before the regular assembly presentations for the purpose of eliminating some of the orators and readers. In this way only ona assembly was necessary for both presen¬ tations instead of two as in former years. In the intramural contest, Emerson Dickey placed second with his Washington oration “A Life of Service”, and Betty Dauler received second honor for her reading “An American Citizen”. fifty-two ATHLETICS A THLETICS is probably the most popular outside activ¬ ity. Mental alertness and physical development are ultimate results of athletic training. It has always been the aim of Mentor teams to promote clean play and good sportsmanship in both intramural and inter-school competition. Keen interest has always been shown by participants. Boys’ Basketball Second Row—-William Frey, Kenneth Moore, manager, Mr. Masonbrink, coach, Bud Hausman, Paul Glendinning-, William Dauler. First Row—Elmer Warner, Jack Norris, Clayton Richter, Dave Frey, William Merkel. Coach Masonbrink started the basketball season with a large number of lettermen and a likely string of substitutes. He ended the sea¬ son by winning the Lake County League cham¬ pionship. This made Mentor eligible to enter the sectional Class R tournament which was held here this year. Mentor won her first tour¬ nament game from North Royalton but lost the next game to Columbia, the runner-up of the tournament. “Gus Norris was elected captain of the varsity by the squad. Of the six lettermen this year, three veterans, Dave Frey, Jack Norris, and Elmer Warner will graduate. Richter, Merkel, and Dauler will be left to form the j ac k Norris nucleus of next year’s team. Captain fifty-four “Tke Reserves Second Row—Robert Amans, Kenneth Sprague, Ralph Davies, William Schwentner, manager, Mr. Masonbrink, coach, Richard Dey, manager, Bill Linsz, Arriton Verbsky, Bill Ingersoll. First Row—Alfred Bevington, John Dickey, Ford Davis, Carl Kehl, Woodrow Russell, Robert Haase. The reserve basketball squad, although not as successful as their varsity team-mates, completed a schedule that was very compli- mentarv to the squad and the coach. The team won six games and lost four, which included two losses to Kirtland, one to Fairport, and one to Madison. The elected captain of the squad, Carl Kehl, served as a substitute on the varsity squad dur¬ ing the last few games after proving his worth on the reserve team during the early part of the season. Among the other high scorers on the team were two freshmen boys, “Woody” Russell and Ford Davis. These boys are cer¬ tainly very promising material for future basketball teams. fifty-five 1 Bo s’ Track Third Row—Russell Robertson. Homer Hull, Kenyon Pallant, Robert Mighton, Russell Boesch, Robert Paden, John Dickey, Harry Koehler, Robert Norris, James IPaclen. Second Row—Harland Howells, Bud Hausman, Jack Hughes, Robert Linga- felter, Clayton Richter, Karl Kehl, Charles Howard, Robert Haase, Paul Glen- First Row—Mr. Masonbrink, coach, Bill Hauler, Richard Dey, Elmer 1 W arner, Joe Shandle, Robert Eaton. Clark Collins, George Digby, Truman Prentice, Ralph Davies, Clement Dewalt, William Louden, manager. Although the season is not yet fully under way at the time when the annual goes to press, Mentor is quite confident that her track squad will complete a very successful year. Mr. Masonbrink started track practices and try¬ outs as soon as the basketball season tvas over. One of the first events held was the intramural track meet, which uncovered valuable material. Among those who have already proved that they are outstanding are Harland Howells, Mike Shore, and Joe Shandle, who specialize in the dashes; Bob Lingafelter, who covers a lot of territorv in the distance events; and Bud H ausmann and Clement Dewalt, who have un¬ usual ability for winning field events. Harland Howells Captain fifty-six Cross Country Second Row—Joe Shandle, Raymond Edds, Arriton Verbsky, Mr. Masonbrink, coach, James Crookshanks, Emerson Dickey, Robert Migditon. First Row—John Dickey, Raymond Kocis, Robert Ling-afelter, Richard Dey, Harry Koehler, James Paden. Robert Lingafelter Letter Man The cross country squad labored faithfully many an evening after school during the foot¬ ball season. The team took part in several interschool contests run off between the halves of the football games besides participating and placing eighth in the district Class A meet in Cleveland. Although this is but the second season that Mentor has had a cross country squad, this sport has attracted much attention and many “puppy pounders” to its rank. Robert Lingafelter, a sophomore, by virtue of his accomplishments on the squad, was awarded the only cross country letter given this year. This is a high honor, for only one of these letters has been previously awarded fifty-seven Football Fourth Row—Stanley Shanowcr, Frank Laskowski, Randall Updyke, Robert Eaton, Thomas Poole, William Kalsch, Raymond Jenks. Third Row—Mr. Masonbrink, coach, Clifford Dean, Arthur Canfield, Charles Howard, Jack Sandburg ' , Dave Frey, William Long-, Paul Glendinning, Clayton Richter, Paul Orvos, Bud Hausman, Clement Dewalt, Mr. Tischendorf, coach. Second Row—Jack Hughes, William Frey, Elmer Warner, Joe Matty, Car¬ lyle Little, Edwin Logan, Tom Hagaman, Truman Prentice, William Dauler, John Booth. First Row—Clark Collins, manager, Donald Loomis, William Ingersoll, John Murray, Ford Davis, Robert Haase, Robert Padeit, William Linsz, Leonard Marsh. Mentor High’s football squad prospered quite well as Mr. Tischendorf’s last athletic team at our alma mater. “Ed” Logan was elected honorary captain at the end of the season. This year Ed received his third football letter. Those men who re¬ ceived their second football letter were B. Frey, D. Frey, Warner, Hausman, Canfield, Hughes. The first letter men were Matty, Sandburg, Hagaman, DeWalt, Long, Glendinning, Orvos, and Howard. The team ended with a .500 standing in the county league. Edwin Logan Captain fifty-eight Intra-mural Award Holders Lillian Nelson Highest Individual Second Row—Frieda Carrel, Ag-nes Hager, Suzanne Ware, Edith Wouters, Miss Bryant, coach, Eudora Davies, Doris Logan, Dorothy Morley. First Row—Sarah Schuster, Betty Dauler, Dorothy Martin, Lillian Nelson, Janet Frey, Ethelbelle Scott. Mentor’s athletic lassies are awarded points for earning positions on intramural teams. One hundred points are awarded to any girl who makes either the basketball, baseball, volleyball, or track team. The captain of the team is awarded fifteen extra points. For earning a berth on the honorary school team, the athlete gains twenty-five more points. In the elimina¬ tion tennis tournaments five points are given for each game and fifty for the school cham¬ pion. Hiking a mile earns one point. These points accumulate year after year. For three hundred points a numeral is given; for six hundred points a felt letter is awarded. Twelve hundred points earns a chenille M. fifty-nine Girls’ Basketball Second Row—Jean Kenninger, Jean Ahlman, Madelyn Teuscher, manager, Suzanne Ware, Agnes Hager. First Row—Lillian Nelson, Mildred Gunesch, Kathleen Hoff, Eudora Davies. This year registered a great interest in girls’ intramural basketball at M. H. S. The senior girls, who are pictured above, finally came out on top. At the end of the season the best players in the intramural tournament were selected to form a girls’ honorary team. The following girls were picked: Lillian Nelson, captain; Eudora Davies, Agnes Hager, Dorothea Mar¬ tin, Mildred Gunesch, Sue Ware, Kathleen Hoff, and Betty Dauler. The second honorary team consisted of Freida Carrol, Mildred Cartwright, Eleanor Cartwright, Jean Ahlman, Jean Kenninger, Helen Allchin, Sara Schuster, and Arlene Logan. These teams represented Mentor in the county basketball play day. Mildred Gunesch Captain sixty Sarah Schuster Captain Volleyball Second Row—Clydine Davis, manager, Dorothy Morley, Doris Logan, Dana Morley, Eleanor Yard, Eleanor Heinz, Albina Lopatich, manager. First Row—Edith Wouters, Virginia Lybarger, Sarah Schuster, Mildred Cart¬ wright, Lillian Bleil. Competition and interest in volleyball were unusually keen this year; the teams were evenly matched. The regular intramural volleyball tournament was held during noon-hours in the gymnasium The sophomores, who are pictured above, won the tournament, and the seniors took second place. The freshmen and juniors teams took third and last places respectively. An honorary team consisting of the best pla 3 r ers of the entire tournament was selected. The girls who were chosen to compose this team were Eudora Davies, Kathleen Hoff, Lillian Nelson, Ethelbelle Scott, Arlene Logan, Mar¬ garet Roper, Dana Morley, Dorothy Morley, Sarah Schuster, and Eleanor Yard. sixty-one Junior Higk Basketball sixty-txi ' o Third Row—Ralph Suts, Willis Liske, George Unger, Sherwood Dille, Lestei Bandin, William Warren. Second Row-—Alfred Howells. Robert Prey, Charles Garcia, Mr. LaFollette, coach, Ray Jenks, Clare Warner, Ray Gunesch, Stanley Shanower, manager. First Row—Thomas Poole, Charles Fatica, Robert Eaton, Ralph Gano, Alfred Bevington, Kenneth Reynolds. The junior high basketball team was another of Mentor High’s successful basketball organi¬ zations. This team, playing teams from Paines- ville, Willoughby, and Kirtland, won every game that it started, a fact which proves that the team was extraordinarily good. Clare Warner was elected captain by the members of the squad. Mr. Tischendorf coached the team during the first part of the season, and Bill Vellman and Mr. La Follette continued the work after he left. The junior high squad offers excellent train¬ ing for these beginners who aspire to earn a berth on the varsity squad. Clare Warner Cay tain Seniors’ Last Songs When high school’s done, And friends are gone, School da 3 7 s are through. When high school’s done, We’ll dream of all the joys we knew— Should a body meet a body On the road to fame, Would a body greet a body, “Pray, what is your name?” No—we’d know him as we knew him In the days of yore. We’d step right up and fondly greet him, “Hello — Hello -— Sen-ior!” Paddl-in’ Made-lyn home, Paddlin’ sweet Madelyn home — We must now say goodb} r e; Hope we’ll meet bye an’ bye, But we’re paddlin’ Madelyn home! • Sometimes I wonder why we ever had to leave Old halls and well known rooms, Laughter and fun, The honors we have won, And friends we’ve learned to love so much •— « - “Though I hold you in my arms tonight, Will tomorrow bring the same delight?

I won’t let you go! You must pay attention to my advice, And listen to the wisdom of Mr. Rice.” So what did Bill do? We’ll leave it to you — • I am with you, wandering through Memory Lane, Living our years, laughter and tears, over again.

Initiative applies itself As time goes by — School of my dreams, I love you; Honest I do. You taught me to. If I would come back some day, Would you let me stay Old memories to renew? Tears and parting may make us forlorn, But in your life a new day is born. So we’ll say, “Goodb 3 r e, Seniors, Tho’ you’re not together, Goodbye, Seniors, Hardships 3 r ou will weather.
