Junior Class History On September 12, 1927, the Class of '29 gathered at the Ohio City High School to begin their career as Juniors. More than ever this year we expected to gain the higher and nobler things of life inside its walls. With the consolidation of Ohio City-Liberty school districts we found, after glancing through our numbers, that six had gone to other fields of knowledge. Seven others, thinking school too dull, had gone elsewhere to seek adventure. Although so many of our number of the year before had gone elsewhere, we willingly welcomed three new enterprising students, Norma Wise, Paul Wise, and Robert Hardman. Realizing that we should not be successful without good leaders we chose the following officers: Ivan Putman, President: Norma Wise, Vice-President: Helen Trout, Secretary-Treasurer: and Martha Dull, Class Reporter. To guide our actions that they might be successful, Mr. L. L. Hurley was chosen Sponsor. During the first months we threw ourselves happily into our work that we might derive much benefit. In October we dispensed with hard work for a few hours and enjoyed a pleasant out-door party in I-Iigh's Grove. About mid-way in this year's term we came face to face with the exams, but having whetted our minds we passed successfully. As our class is always successful in everything undertaken we have a fine representation in athletics. During the fall Ivan Putman, Robert Hardman, Donald Cowan, and Ralph McDougal defended the school's baseball team. As basketball season drew near we were again faithfully represented by Olive Dibert, Helen Trout, Gerald Snyder, Donald Cowan, and Ivan Putman. In the Interclass Contest we were splendidly represented by Mildred Saums. short story writer: Matha Dull, reader: 'and Norma Wise, orator. ' As we breathlessly awaited the results, feelings of misgiving began to arise-but only for a moment. Our success was only too evident when Mildred's story and Norma's oration took first and Martha's reading third place. The next really large event was the Junior Class play, The Mummy and the Mumps, a three-act comedy presented April 13. Following the Junior play was the main social event of the year, the Junior-Senior Banquet, May l l. After vacation joys are over, we hope that all the Juniors of 1927-28 can join us as Seniors next year.

Elmer- Friend, I do not like to be too inquisitive, but what are the four holes in the door for? Westerner- Well, you see, I has four cats. Elmer- But wouldn't one good-sized hole do for all the cats? Westerner- Boy, when I say 'Scatl' I mean 'Scatl' ' unnuuniwiuiwvuuniii Ginih-a rmmmn--vnu--.1ui?-mniki-li'-n-in6 vv

an -mE-.nun nu-nn-unnnunnunn um ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, Sophomore Class History On the thirteenth day of September, 1926, forty-eight frightened boys and girls entered the Ohio City High School. Some were timid and shy- others were bold and seemed very much frightened. But the name that the upperclassmen gave us included both types for we certainly were green about the routine of high school. In the interest of our very large class we held a class meeting and elected Marcile Straw, President: Doris McClelland, Vice-President: Mildred Felger, Secretary-Treasurer: Deloris Billieu, Class Reporter: Corinne Profit, Short Story Writer: Wesley Rickard, Orator: and Mary Moyer, Reader. There were more in our class who thought it wiser to become interested in the outside world and so left our class before we became Sophomores. They are Beatrice Clouse, Edith Boroff, Maxine Custer, Mildred Giessler, and Lewis Johnson. Our first party was held at the home of Mildred Giessler where we became better acquainted with one another. One thing that we Freshmen were most proud of was being allowed to display our banner in the chapel room for having the most points in the Oratorical Contest. The first year passed quickly and we soon found ourselves Sophomores. Some of our number had chosen other schools to finish their high school life which lessened our number to thirty-five. We chose Miss Rollins as our Advisor. Also Camilla Rollins, President: Martin Dysert, Vice-President: Richard Harvey, Secretary-Treasurer: and Mary Moyer, Class Reporter. Of the ten basketball girls who wore the dear old Red and Green thru this year's season, we can proudly boast that five were sophomores: namely Camilla Rollins, Marcile Straw, Maxine Dibert, Zelma Lawson, and Mary McDougal. Of the boys team we have two, Martin Dysert and Richard Harvey. We held a meeting some days later and elected Helen High, Orator: Mary Moyer, Reader: and Corinne Profit, Short Story Writer. This year in our local oratorical Mary won first place and Helen and Corinne both won third place. We had been warned of the mid-term examinations. But we passed thru these with flying colors. After the Inter-Class Contest our efforts were drawn to the hexagonal debate. ln this we found we were represented by two very capable debaters. Helen High and Mary Moyer. We sincerely hope we shall all meet again in the Ohio City-Liberty School as Juniors. CLARA i-FICKLE ze :cf wr ar ' Mr. Hurley Cln Biology Classj : What advantages has man in his upright position?
