She prides her- self in her educational career, Before the war of 1812, settlers maintained a private school at Miami, later a private school near Fort Meigs. The first graded school of the valley was organized at Miami by Frances Hollenbeck, former Perrysburg citizen. Perrysburg came a close second when in 1846 J. W. Ross oganized grade schools here. Howe's History of Ohio states, First system of classification of pupils was at Cincinnati 1836-40. Portsmouth, Dayton, Columbus, Mau- mee, Perrysburg and Zanesville soon by special acts of legislature or- ganized graded schools. In each place provision was made for two or four grades. Only at Cincinnati was a definite course of study such as exists today adopted before 1850. Not until 1845-50 were high schools opened in Cincinnati and Columbus. Among the first, and probably the first high school of the state, was Maumee. In 1849 Professor A. D, Wright founded the high school of Perrys- burg, Pamphlets describe, a new and spacious brick edifice two stories high, 60 x 90 feet. The staff included A. D. Wright, superintendent and principal of high school, E. Olney CAnn Arborl, principal of grammar schoolg Miss Helen Peck, principal of secondary schoolg Miss Mary Jones, principal of primary schoolg Mrs. C. J. Wright, teacher of drawing and painting, Mrs. T. Robertson, teacher of piano forte, The school year covered 44 weeks, The course of high school study included,f algebra, geometry, surveying, orthography, elocution, rhetoric, ,mental-philosophy, chemistry, ast1'onomy, botany, Zoology mineralogy, physiology, natural philosophy, universal history, bookkeeping, science of governments, moral philosophy, composition and declamation, Latin and Greek, sufiicient for admission to college. The first school was enlarged in 1868 and destroyed by tire 1894. The present building was erected 1895. About 1915 under the superintendency of Professor Cole, manual training and domestic science were introduced. When the high school annex was built 1917, these latter studies were im- proved upon. The school is greatly indebted to Miss Libbey for the equip- ment for Domestic Science, and to Mr. W. W. Knight for the manual train- ing tools. Iln 1917 Mr. W. S. Walbridge presented the school with Hag staff and colors. For our High School Library, recently installed in this year 1920-21, we are indebted to a series of gifts, brought about by our friend and patron, Col. George Greenhalgh, In 1849 the pupils of the high school numbered fifty, twenty-three from out of town. In 1916 when Professor Nietz came to us, forty-nine were enrolled. Under Professor J. A. Nietz's splendid administration the high school has increased to 142. School motor busses, following six different routes bring 56 high school pupils from the country. It was 8 THE ORACLE necessary this year to equip a new assembly room for Juniors and Seniors. Our grammar grades are filled to overflowing. Extra teachers a1'e re- quired to take charge of the overflow. This last term the staff was rein- forced by Miss Cozy Grimes, whose services have been valuable as sec- retary and oiiice assistant. The Senior Class is the largest in the history of P. H. S., with the p-rospect that classes will grow from year to year. A-n interesting feature is the scholarship given by W. V, Way, granting 31,200 to a pupil every four years for a college course. Our school is a progressive school. In 1919 a beautiful new piano was bought for the auditorium and a new motion picture machine installed. Many of the grade rooms are supplied with pianos, and commonly share a victrola. The appearance of the school lawn is improved by the presence of a cannon from the Wo1'ld's War. Last year Jeannette Lowns-bury, now an ex-Senior, won first prize, a gold medal, in the Northwestern Oratorical Contest, bringing the contest to Perrysburg this year. A Senior of 1921, Vernon Sprague captured a bronze medal in a State Extemporaneous Debating Contest at Wooster University. In 1919 Vera Hufford fclass of 19215 won the state first prize in the Temperance Essay Contest. In the course of the year a liberal offering for the Near East Fund was taken. One of the novelties of the te1'm was the taking of the standardized mental tests of the pupils. Our school is a sociable schoolg many entertainments are given by the pupils. It is an established custom for each high school class to give a party once a year, Near the close of the second semester, Sophomores and Juniors give a banquet in honor of the Seniors. We have a friendly school, appreciated by a friendly community. The recitationg and songs at the recent Farmer's Institute were furnished by school pupils under direction of Miss Mild1'ed Williams, the Musical Instructor. Our well known public men often address the High School, P. H, S. maintains the standards of the first class High School and is a member of the North. Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Perrysburg Schools are pronounced the best organized in Wood County, with the highest paid corps of teachers, and vie with City Schools in standard, equipment and results.

During the first year we, as did the preceding classes, endured the scoffs and' jeers which every Freshman must undergo. As Sophomores, we passed out of the first year's humiliation and found ourselves a true part of the High School, from which time we have on several occasions displayed both our literary talent and athletic prow- essg nor have we in the least failed to show our capacity for performing pranks. As Juniors we looked forward to the following year which would make us Seniors. It seemed so impossible-for we thought it would be so different and so nice to be members of a body of such distinction as the Senior Class. But today we realize that those were mere fancies, for being Seniors is not so different after all. Some who were Freshmen with us have dropped out, others have moved away and few have been added to our number giving us a membership of twenty-five, the largest Senior Class in the history of P. H. S. We look back over these four years as a past which can never be repeated and we regard that past as the happiest days of our livesg but we look into a future, which has a place for each of us to fill,-a future moulded by the knowledge gained in our school days, embellished with the happy memories of the past and glowing with high ideals and hopes.

It was election night in Philadelphia, I was among the throngs of people who were scurrying to and fro, excited and impatiently waiting for the last returns which would make known our next president, At last they came, and I stood astonished and overwhelmed at the hundreds of people who paraded the streets headed by the banner on which was written Elizabeth Spybey to be First Woman President. As I left the crowd of people and was making my way up Main Street, Illy thoughts wandering back to my school days, I heard voices speaking of Elizabeth Spybey, the president elect, as their old school chum. Now, said a man's voice, The Sprague Bill will be easily passed for Elizabeth favors it. I was eager to hear more and from their talk I ascertained that the bill referred to had been introduced by Vernon Sprague, the Speaker of the House. I became so interested that I was guilty of stopping to peer through the window of the Barber Shop and to my surprise who did I see but Daisy Lehr shaving Arthur Simmons! By the Way Arthur, said Daisy as she placed a hot towel over his face, Are you and Romayne Hayes still carrying on that matrimonial bureau? As he answered in the aflirmative, Daisy added, I think it wonderful to possess the talent of helping others to find their life-companion. Then I passed on and as I reached the residential part of the city, silence brooded in the place of the clamor, and dark windows stared at me in contrast to the lighted windows of the shops for the people had deserted their homes for the night's unusual excitement. But I soon came to a residence whose windows sent forth a ray of light and as I approached nearer I heard a child's voice, then the vision of a tall man with a baby in his arms rose before the window. The gentle- man peered down the street with an anxious look on his face and then turned about and as he walked to and fro across the room he kept time to the cries of the youngster in his arms. Scarcely before I realized what I was doing I had ascended the steps, opened the door and was inside facing this gentleman and never before had I been so su1'prised as when I recognized Waldo Johnson. My astonishment was increased still more when he told me his wife had gone to see a Shakespearian play which was being played in the city by our old classmate Karl Mills, who was considered by the people a second Mantelle. The following day found me in New York City. .Among the different institutions which I visited while there, was the Children's Home. As I was being shown through the -building I entered a room where hundreds of children sat intensely interested in a story that was being told by the matron, whom I soon discovered to be Frances Krupp, PFIRRYSBURG HIGH SCHOOL 25 Next I was in the Court House and would you believe that Frank Bayer was there as a lawyer pleading the case of Madeline McGee for a breach of promise against a near relative of John D, Rockefeller. Again the scene changed. I was in the midst of a railroad accident trying to assist in rescuing the injured passengers. Suddenly an ambu- lance train arrived and no sooner had it stopped when a doctor, quick and alert, alighted, followed by a white-clad nurse. I was quick to per- ceive the relief brought to the patients by this sagacious physician, but it was not until later that I caught a glimpse of his face. How he resembled Leo Dibling. Then I noticed his height and black hair and this second glance told me that this man not only resembled our class president ibut was really Leo. I then turned my attention to the hgure at his side who without faltering carried out his orders and I could scarce believe my eyes when I saw Frances Hall. During the two or three hours I was compelled to wait before con- tinuing my journey I walked over to a nearby farm house in the hop-e of refreshing myself with a drink of water. As I walked up to the pump the door of the house opened and a woman followed by three darling little children appeared and as she handed me a cup I recognized Mabelle Reneger. My travels next led me through sunny Alabama. Hundreds of acres of fertile and well tilled soil rose in my vision. It was thrilling to note how beautifully nature had adorned this land and yet not nature alone, for man's hands and mind were necessary to make it what it had just re- cently become, and you will be interested to know that the hands and mind referred to were those of a scientific farmer, named Merlin Sheldrick. Merlin was doing work on such a large scale that it was necessary for liim to employ Leslie Porter, an expert accountant to keep his books. Soon I found myself glancing up and down the columns of a Florida newspaper and the following ad caught my eye: Miss Eleanor Lownsbury opens a class in swimming Oct, 1. Those wishing to enter call at 223 East Glendale, Palm Beach, Below this was another ad as follows: Mary Fuller-Manicurist 613 Lake Drive, Palm Beach. Hours 8 to 10 and 2 to 4. How I ever got into a little red school-house way out in ai rural dis- trict of Arkansas is a conumdrum to me, but I had by this time become so accustomed to unexpected things that when I heard the children call their teacher Miss I-Iufford I took it as a natural course of events and laughed to myself as I contrasted her to the Vera of 1921. Soon the door of the school-room opened and a tall man with red hair hurried into the room. He was introduced to me as Mr. Braun, the superintendent, but his nose glasses, moustache and dice hat had quite deceived me and it was not until I connected his name with his person- ality that it dawned upon me that this was Charles Braun. Isn't it queer how circumstances sometimes deal so fortunately with us? This fact was impressed upon me when I was in a restaurant in Denver, Colorado. It was crowded with people and the only unoccupied place I could find was at a table where a woman sat alone. As I went to fill this one vacancy I came face to face with Leone Deem, who was now an efficient stenographer. Our conversation was mostly of the days we 26 THE ORACLE spent at P. H. S. and before departing I accepted her invitation to attend a concert at the Coliseum that evening, in Denver. One number of the program above all others that I enjoyed was a selection from Beethoven. How a musician could so change a person's feelings was wonderful for I was first filled with ecstacy and then tears flowed down my cheeks. I was so influenced by the strains of music that everything else was oblivious and as the sounds died away and I saw the figure of a woman arise from the piano. Then I understood why Leone had asked me to accompany her to this concert, for Edith Whitson was a rare musician. TE last of the events which occurred to me while I was in the land of wonder took place in Los Angeles, California. Here I chancecl to meet Margaret Zingg, but alas a wealthy Californian had changed her name. their home was surrounded by trees and flowers and was of a most mod- ern type. They also possessed objects of fascination among which was a beautiful clock which stood in the hall It, I was later informed, was run by perpetual motion which had been discovered a short time before by the scientist Cloyce Webb. As fortune would again have it I here met Alan Ballantyne for whom Margaret was entertaining as he was leaving on the following day as a missionary to Africa. It was here that I also read a letter which Margaret had received from Evelyn a short time before. While reading it I could not help but perceive the pleasant atmosphere in the home from which it came, for Evelyn was indeed an inspiration to her family and was adding joy and sunshine not alone to her own home but others as well, for Evelyn hav- ing had experience as editor-in-chief of the P, H. S, Oracle found time to contribute poems and stories to magazines. At this point my dream ended and whether or not it is true, one thing is certain-this class has shown by the past that they will make something useful of themselves. IQI ll GDC 6 Q i., Q !

We are advanced to the Junior Class of this school. We have come to fill a portion of this Annual with clever words as the final remem- brance of those, whose deeds and misdemeanors have been the main stay of our class, It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this. But in a literal sense, we cannot fill this space with cleverness, orig- inality or mirth. The many pupils, living and dead, have before written and composed for their Annuals leaving nothing original for us to add or detract. The pupils of P. H. S. will little note nor long remember what we write here but they can never forget the many inspirations we gave here. It is for us, the present Juniors, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work, which they who studied here, have thus far, so nobly advanced. It is rather, for us to be here dedicated to the great task re- maining before us-that from these honored students, we take increased devotion to the school, to which they gave their last thoughts and good wishesg that these preceding students shall not have achieved for us in vaing that this school under the principal, Mr. Breisach, shall have a new birth of knowledge g and that this class, of the Juniors, by the Juniors and for the Juniors shall not perish before graduation in 1922. .

A lvin Sprague, Charles Braun -Q C PERRYSBURG HIGH SCHOOL 43 Phi Sigma Literary Society The Phi Sigma Society was born in 1914. Its growth and success have kept pace with the growth and success of Perryslburg High and both are remarkable institutions for learning. The monthly programs are very entertaining as well as instructive. For instance, you may learn why to keep your coal in the attic rather than in the basement. This information is both interesting and instruct- ive. Debates, readings, original stories, vocal, violin and piano solos, duets, dialogues, monologues, pilaylets, shadow-grams, and the Phi Sig Sentinel constitute material for these programs. The Phi Sig Sentinel is a paper, edited monthly by the society. Its reading matter includes athletic and society news, beauty hints, faculty problems, original poetry, scandal of the harmless variety and jokes. The sponsors for this society are Miss Williams and Mr. Treece. The officers are Vernon Sprague, president g Vera Hufford, vice-president, Margaret Wiser, secretary, and Mary Fuller, treasurer. The Inter-So- ciety contestants who are chosen by a popular vote of the society mem- bers are: Vernon Sprague, oratorg Doris Fenneberg, essayistg Melba Rossbach, reader, Alvin Sprague and Charles Braun, debate1's. Of the six annual Inter-Society Contests, which have been held be- tween the Athenians and Phi Sigrnas, the latter have lost but one,- namely the second which was held in the spring of 1916. The Athenians are worthy foemen, but the Phi Sigma pride is justifiable, For several years partisan spirit ran rampant, but during the last year or two there has been more cooperation, and we feel that outside of graduation, the Inter-Society Contest is THE big event of the year. The Phi Sigs have lost none of their zest. We hope to again come out victorious. 44 THE ORACLE OfHcers of the Athenian Literary Society President ....,.......... .................

Raphael McCormick PERRYSBURG HIGH SCHOOL 45 The Athenian Literary Society The Athenian Literary Society was organized in the year 1914 under the direction of Superintendent Cole. As the years have rolled by the membership as well as the interest in the Society has increased until it has become one of the chief factors of P. H. S. Programs are given monthly to which visitors as well as high school students are invited. Within the last two years The Tattler has been been developed as the Society paper. It is edited every month by mem- bers appointed by the Program Committee, and has proved to be a very amusing as well as an instructive contribution to the programs. It is the aim of the society to require each member to appear on at least one program during the year. Some of the features of the pro- grams are dramatics, music, readings, essays and informal debates. This gives everyone an opportunity to learn to express themselves in public and develop their talents for public speaking and acting. The climax of the year is the contest which is held annually between the Phi Sigma and Athenian Societies. Each society enters five contest- ants, one each for an essay, a reading, an oration, and two for the debate. Every number is judged by neutral judges and the society receiving three or more of the five points, wins the contest, Although the Athenians have lost for the last few years it has not daunted our courage, but spurred us on to try, try again until we succeed. A committee chosen by the society and including the sponsors, ap- pointed this year's contestants. Elizabeth Spybey was chosen for an Essay, Eunice Waggoner for the Orationg Daisy Lehr for the Reading, and Raphael McCormick and Gertrude Witzler for the Debate, Under the supervision of the sponsors, Miss Clay and Mr. McKay, and the competent officers, P1'esident, Leo Dibling, Vice President, Alan Ballantyne: Secretary, Elizabeth Spybey, and Treasurer, Karl Mills, the Athenians have had a successful year and we hop-e that this success will be crowned with Vir-tory. 46 THE ORACLE U CJ U U .

Hoffman PERRYSBURG HIGH SCHOOL 47 On September 13th, Coach T reece issued a call in High School for foot- ball candidates. About twenty responded and the enthusiasm ran high. Leo Dibling was elected captain and Vernon Sprague student manager. The team was picked and pretty well rounded up, with the exception of a fullback. Several men were tried at this place but all proved better adapted to some other position. It remained a question until ,Harold Hoff- man entered school and filled the empty shoes. Although being very light for this position he made up for it in nerve. The season started with a bang! P. H. S, defeating Rudolph 87 to O. This game brought out a real find in Stanley fHick JThurlby, last year's end, who filled the right half position to perfection. The other back field men were the same as for last year, with Ballantyne shifted to quarter and Captain Dibling, playing stellar football at left half. The second game of the season brought more joy, P. H, S. walked over their old rivals, Maumee for a 24 to 14 victory. In this game our hard luck began and not once afterwards did the team enter a game without a number of cripples. Luck was against us all the way around. Despite the fact that we were handicapped by many injuries, P. H. S. scored 134 points this season, our opponents scored 64 points. WEARERS OF THE P V Leo Dibling, Captain-''Dibby -Students, friends and admirers of P. H. S. will never forget those thrilling end runs of Captain Dibling. It was to a great extent through his leadership and all round stellar playing that P. I-I. S. was enabled to close the season with 132 points to her op- ponent's 64. Alan Ballantyne-- Bally -''The fighting quarterback. Though suf- fering from severe injur'es through practically the entire season, he was in every game and he set a standard for future P, H. S. Quarters to strive for. His playing was mot only consistent but in many respects spectacular. A bear on both offense and defence. Stanley Thurlby- Hick -As halfback he proved to be our most con- sistent ground gainer. A demon at both line plunging and rurnning in a broken field. . Harold Hoffman- Volly -Fullback-A line plunger of ability and a bear on the defence. Adrian Stephens-''Steven-Though this was his first year at foot- ball, he played like a veteran and bids fair to become the equal of any High School end in the state next fall. Waldo Johnson- Walt -It will be hard indeed to find a man who can fill JohJ1son's place at end. A born fighter in every play. One of the most consistent men on the team. p Allie Hoffman- Allie -Sub quarter and utility man. One of the most versatile men on the team, being able to play nearly amy position in a creditable manner. Frank Bayer- Jack -One of the hardest fighting tackles ever turned out by P. H. S. He will be greatly missed next fall. 48 THE ORACLE Harland Warns- Warnsie -We can't help but feel optomistic when we realize that Harland will be back next fall. A tackle of the smashing type and one to be feared by all opponents. Merlin Sheldrick- Shelly -A tower of Strength at Guard. The ground that was gained by opponents through Shelly wouldn't be enough to make a drill ground for a squad of Cooties. We are sure sorry to sec him go. p Alvin Sprague- Spraguey -Our Freshman Center. P. H, S. need have no worry over the difficult Center position for at least three years for Alvin has solved the problem admirably, I Charles Braun- Braunie -Guard-A conscientious, hard working player who will without doubt be greatly missed next fall. Homer Pair-''Malls -Tackle-Just learning the gameg but watch him next fall. Blair 'Caldwell- Bud -Tackle arnd Utility man. A valuable man in- deed and one who could always be depended upon. Karl Witzler- Kutz -The embyro of a football player. Watch him grow. Marcellus Hoffman- Mar -The little Giant-The best football player pound for pound in Ohio. He should be one of the Stars next year. Eli PERRYSBURG HIGH SCHOOL Basket Ball Scores P, H, S .......... ........... 2 8 Waterville P, H. S 4.,.. ..... . ...... , 25 Monclova P. H.

Ballantyne was elected cap- tain and Vernon Sprague student manager. With five letter men out, Coach Treece had a nucleous around which to build a team. After three Weeks of a continual grind of practice the season opened. After the third game the team was greatly reinforced by the return of Jim Wiser to school. The team had a glorious record winning the first ten straight games. At this critical time the team broke up and the next few games were played by the second team. A few days before the biggest game of the year, which is always the Pemberville game, the team was reorganized, As the team was far out of condition they were defeated, for the first time this year and the first time for two years on the home floor. After this the team made very little showing in the County Tournament. The season as a whole was very successful. The record made by the team was the best ever made by any team at P. H. S. PLAYERS Alan Ballantyne-''Bally -Captain and star forward.-Ofne of the best all round basket ball players who ever won the P. An accurate basket shooter, a great floor man, and his record as a foul shooter will compare favorably with that of any foul tosser in the state. P. H. S. will miss him greatly next winter. Stanley Thurlby- Hick - Running note of Bally's -A forward of more than ordinary ability, and wonderful possibilities as he will be .back next yea1'. T Leo Dibling- Dibby -Our six foot center-A wonderful defensive playerg and when he was going good he could outjump an Australian kangaroo. It will likely be a long time before P. H, S, has a center who will excel Dibby . Harland Warns- Warnsie -One of the best, if not the best roving guard, ever developed by P. H. S. It was worth the price of a game just to watch Warns perform. He was one of the biggest point getters for P. H. S. His dribbling, passing and close shooting were superb, Merlin Sheldrick- Shelly -A real veteran, having played on the high school team for three years, Perhaps the most versatile player on the team, being able to play any position in a creditable manner. A good floor man, a great follow in player and playing a defensive position most of the time, he would slip dowin the floor and toss in the long ones quite consistently. Blair Caldwell-Sub. Center of ability and with a future that looks bright. Harold Hoffman-Sub. Guard-Green as yet, but developing rapidly. Harold should make a great name for himself and his school next winter, 'COACH TREECE Treece is a great favorite with all the fellows and there isn't a thing they wouldn't do for him. He is a good mixer and well liked by all. He ig on the job every night and puts in hours of tiresome work, coaching the different athletics, and all of his own free will. His athletic and coaching ability makes him a great trainer and director. It will be very difficult to get a man to fill the place as well as he has, for his whole heart has been in his work.

Gertrude Witzler Witzy Myrtle Sheldrick Shelly Alma Craine PERRYSBURG HIGH SCHOOL 53 Girls Basket Ball P. H. S. this year, has produced one of the best and most successful girls' teams that has ever played Basket Ball for the black and gold. Eight out of the eleven games played, not including games played at the tournament, ended in favor of Perrysburg, and while our guards have held down the opponents scores to 181, the forwards have advanced our score to 251. The centers have been strong and good team work featured all of the games. This year P. H. S. will lose a forward, Eleanor Lownsbury, and a guard, Ma1'y Fuller, but with the mate1'ial still in high, we hope to have even greater success next year. Good luck, girls! COUNTY TOURNAMENT We were disappointed in not winning a tournament cup but feel that no team can do the impossible, and that seems to be what they expected of us. One game at 9:15 in the morning, another about 2:30, another at 9:00 and another, our Jonah, about 9:20. The games were shortened in the evening to get them all in, but with the heat, the anxiety and hard playing, they seemed even longer than usual, First P. H. S. girls met Bloomdale. With all their usual push, they worked in some teamwork and shot plenty of baskets. Bloomdale seemed unable to find themselves on a strange floor and at the end of the two ten-minute halves the score was 23 to 0 in favor of P. H. S. Saturday morning we met Tontogany at 9:30, This game, too, was fast and every shot counted. The P. H, S. guards allowed only one field basket and one foul to be made for T. H. S, Last year, Tontogany won the second cup at the tournament, but this year they have evidently lost some of their old players. Our third game was against Bowling Green. This was the hardest fought game by any girl's team in the tournament. If anyone doubts the good showing of the P. H. S. girls, inquire as the general opinion of the onlookers. P. H. S. was expected to win. The Bowling Green team was larger and heavier and we are willing to admit that it was a better team, but the girls put up a good fight. P, H. S. was beaten 12 to 6. Our first defeat put us on the consolation series. Saturday night at 9:00 o'clock we met Milton Township, These g'rls were too sure that P. H. S. could not beat them. Although very tired from the two days of the tournament, P. H. S. beat Milton 14 to 1. Before the P. I-I. S, girls could get their breath or any rest at all, they had to play The Dollies from Grand Rapids. Both teams worked hard for the lead, but the first half ended 6 to 6. The last half began and ended with Grand Rapids in the lead. The score was 9 to 6. Up to the time of the game with Bowling G1'een there were only three teams left in Class A, the three being Bowling Green, Prairie Depot and Perrysburg. Adding our scores and the scores of our opponents we had 68 points to their 25. P. H. S. does not feel so badly to think that we lost the cup as long as we made a score that stands next to that of Bowling Green. If we were given a chance we are confident that we could beat Grand Rapids by a bigger score than they beat us. As it was, Bowling Green took the first cup and Prairie Depot took second. l 54 THE ORACLE Track and Oratorical Contests It has been customary to hold each year a district and county track and oratorical contest. Last year the district track meet was held at Lake Township in which Perrysburg was victorious, winning eleven events out of fourteen, two second places and five thirds. Wiser and Sheldrick of Perrysburg led in the individual scoring. The events scored in were: boys' 50 yard dash-Wiserg shot put-Sheldrick, first and Dibling, secondg run- ning broad jump-Wiser, first and Hoffman, third 5 440 yard dash-Wiser, girls' baseball throw-Fennebergg 100 yard dash-Wiser, half mile run- Reither, third, girls' 50 yard dash-Jones, first, and Fuller, third, pole vault-Porter, girls' javelin-Craineg 'boys' javelin-Sheldrickg girls' 69 rod relay, boys' mile relay-P. H, S., second, Perrysburg won with 65 points, Lake, second with 49, and Haskins, third, with 11 points. In the oratorical contest What of the Alien ? by Vernon Sprague, took first place and A National Peril, by Jeanette Lownsbury, took sec- ond place. Again at the county meet in Bowling Green, Perrysburg won all the honors in track and oratorical contests for which we received a banner and a silver loving cup. This cup cannot be retained as a permanent possession unless won for two consecutive years, so this year a determined effort must be made to win again and hold the cup, Eleven teams were compet- ing and Perrysburg won with 31 points, Rudolph was second and Liberty Township, third. Wiser of P. H. S. was second highest individual point getter, Measell of Rudolph having the highest number to his credit, The events in which we scored were: boys' 50 yard dash, Wiserg girls' 50 yard dash, Jones, boys' 100 yard dash, Wiser, second, quarter mile run, Wiser, second, broad jump, Wiserg girls' javelin, 'Craineg girls' relay, Fuller, Craine, Hoffman and Jones. Jeannette Lowmsbury won the oratorical honors and Vernon Sprague took second, Both orations were the same as those delivered at the dis- trict meet. PERRYSBURG HIGH SCHOOL 55 At Midnight Tuesday In an office, much littered with papers, John Fogg was occupied with a waste paper basket, belonging to his employer, Professor Heath. Evident- ly he was searching for something amid its scattered contents. A very disgusted expression was on his face. He sighed, But a man has to live somehow and there isn't much demand for detectives, It's a wonder that old fool of a professor can't keep from losing his important letters and he forgot what it said, something impo1'tant. Rot! it's a blessing he remem- bered who it was from. Ah! What is this? Only an innocent looking scrap of paper, not the letter, but to a man with the nature of a detective it bore a peculiar significance. At Midnight Tuesday, what a wierd thing to be written upon a piece of paper lying in a professor's waste basket. Ah! and in the Professor's own hand writing, too. That looked bad. He would look into this matter. Putting the bit of paper into his pocket for later consideration he re- sumed his searchg a few old bills, a piece of string and another bit of pa- per, he looked at it and his heart thumped as he read the words, heavily under-lined, At Midnight Tuesday. Feverishly, he dumped the contents of the basket upon the floor and began to look it over. When he finished he held in his hand three more papers each bearing the same inscription, At Midnight Tuesday. For several minutes John sat silently' thinking,-Oh! Now he began to see. Yes that must be it, the Professor was not what he pretended to be. How stupid he, John Fogg had been. There never was a missing letter. The fellow has been humbugging him, trying to make him believe that he was a Professor who had come to the town to yvrite a book, when he really was some villainous rascal, come to rob, plunder and probably murder. This time his habit of jotting down what was uppermost in his mind had given him away and he Detective Fogg had found a clue to some crime which he intended to commit. What day was this, surely not Tuesday and already seven o'clock? He shuddered. Perhaps he ought to inform the police. But no! then the police would receive the praise for the capture. He, brave as he was would make the capture alone. That very night it was to be- It was his duty to lock the office before going home and that would make- it easy, for the Professor's office was located in the back part of his, house. He would lock the office but he would not go home. With his trusty thirty-eight he would hide in the darkness of the hall and then when the Professor left his room to commit the crime, whatever it was, -he, unfailing Fogg would rush up and with the help of his trusty gun make him a prisoner. The door opened and the Professor entered. John arose from the floor where he had been sitting with the waste paper basket, and with a controlled voice informed the Professor that he had been unable to find the letter. The Professor was very sorry the letter was important he was sure, but it could not be helped. He had a headache and wished to retire although it was yet early. John might leave his work tonight at eight instead of nine. The door closed and John listened as the Professor went down the hall. -He heard the door of his room close. So, he thought, the crook 56 THE ORACLE Wants me to go an hour earlier tonight, then I will be safely out of the way. He is a wise old bird. Certainly! At eight o'clock, John having finished the work of the day, ex- tinguished the lights, locked the office door with a noisy click, tramped to the front door, opened and shut it noisily, removed his shoes and steal- thily tiptoed back up the hall to the Professor's room. It was a long time before twelve, but John sat down beside the door to wait. The hall was very dark, everything was quiet even in the Pro- fessor's room-evidently he had all preparations made. The time seemed interminable. After what seemed to him a year he could stand it no longer and risked giving himself away by fumbling for his watch,- eleven, fifteen, truly it was nearing the hour. John grew nervous, per- haps he should have gone for the Police after all, Suddenly, he started, Great Heavens! It can't be that I have for- gotten that revolver ? Yes it was at that minute lying in the room of his boarding house, upon the dresser. Fear overtook him. Without his gun he would be helpless, unable to cope with this danger, he must go for the Police. ' He scrambled up and ran down the dark hall, Bang! Confound that chair, he lay in a heap on the floor almost sobbing. Light flooded the hall, he looked up to see the Professor standing over him with a revolver. Don't shoot, he plead, I'll not report you, I swear it. What are you doing here John? the Professor asked in a stern voice, tell me immediately. Those papers, but I'll not report you, only let me go. 'At Midnight Tuesday' but let me go I won't tell. The Professor jumped as though shot. That's it, that's it, he cried. I wrote it so that I would remember.

PERRYSBURG HIGH SCHOOL The Boat Race A free translation from a part of Vergil's .flineid by Elizabeth Spybey and Evelyn Canfield Then Aeneas, that Trojan bold Called on his band of heroes old. Manned he the boats for the spirited race And side by side, face by face They all start out at a terrible pace. Gyas, a warrior, well-renowned, Greatly feared when e'er he frowned- Commanded the Chimera, a good little boatg Afnd resolved that he'd not be the goat. Cloathus, the cap of Scylla was there He was an Ilian, rich and rare Mnestheus, too, was there with his crew, The Pristis, his boat was well tried and true. And last of all Sergestus we spy Upon the Centaurus, fine, high and dry, With flashing oars each one did strive Before all others to arrive, Out in the bay, there stands a rock, They must circle rounnd, and come back to the dock, And he who first shall reach the beach A cloak shall receive, 'tis surely a peach. Aha! who's that ahead! cries the crowd With accents now murmured, now growing aloud, Gyas, our darling, our hero, our pride! I knew it was best I should bet on his side. But there, by heck! Cloanthus now follows, - How swiftly they fly-as fast as the swallows Mnestheus and Sergetus have a turn too 'Tis hard to decide which bet will hold true. Just now the ships approach the boulder, Amd turn they must, for the course, they must hold her, Gyas, their hero, still strives for the wreath, And holds the first place by the skin of his teeth. Menoates, his pilot, he sternly reproved For he seeks the clear waters from the rock far removed For Gyas is worriedg Cloanthus is near And the thought of the cloak is growing quite dear. Anger now surges and honor forget He swears at Menoetes and calls him a sot C29 He picks him up than by the hair of his head And hurls him beneath to a watery bed. He steps to the tiller, now pilot is he And turns the ship safe to the shore from the sea, Menoetes now wet from his head to his sock THE ORACLE Comes up from the depth and strikes out for the rock. His comrades all jeer at his sorrowful plight For falling and swimming he's surely some sight, Upon reaching the cliff he sits in dejection And the scoffs of the crowd sure need some correction, Now Gyas delaying, gives hope to the two, Sergestus and Mnestheusg who'd been feeling quite blue They wish by striving some triumph to win For to lose all praise would be surely a sin, Mnestheus advances, Sergestus in haste Neglects to remember that haste makes waste, Aind more accustomed to driving a nag He finds himself fastened upon a snag. One less to combat Mnestheus cries in his glee I'll surely win glory, just watch me and see. Cloanthus is first, but now side by side Cloanthus and Mnestheus like lightning do glide. You thought Gyas, the darling, his fortune had made But now by these men he is left in the shade. It may be that these two may tie And neither beat the other guy. But Cloanthus getting up his dutch Clasps his hands in fervent clutch. Oh Ye Gods and Little Fishes! I pray you now to hear my wishes, I will offer at your altars, Gifts, and songs from out the psalters Gifts of steers and wine and praisers! I will sing to beat the blazes. And the Gods and Little Fishes Must have heard his prayerful wishes For his ship swift as the breeze Swept across the rippling seas. He enters the harborg winning the race, Happiness shines from his smiling face, Aeneas tells the herald to say That Cloanthus, the Trojan has won the day. Then he presents him with the coat Made by Unicrn men of note. . And the price mark on the collar Showed the cost right to the dollar, Stenciled in the latest vogue Showed how Jove had played the rogue Snatching Ganymede high From the earth up to the sky. And the second prize was fine Coat of mail, how it did shine, Won by Aeneas in a scrap PE RRYSBURG HIGH SCHOOL From Demoleus big and fat. Third, basins, brazen in their hue Flashed to the sky of azure blue. Proud of their treasures and holding' them tight They watch Sergestus sail into sight. Like a wounded serpent. the boat creeps slow Sailing in deiiance, can hardly go Aeneas now gives Sergestus a twig For bringing in his battered brig. Other contests complete the day But you may be sure the Trojans hold sway. i + 64 ' THE ORACLE Alumni We, the Senior Class of 1921 in submitting to you our Annual, pub- lish this list of the people, who have in bygone years, graduated from dear old' Perrysburg High School. You who have enjoyed the privileges of P. H. S., with all of its love of fun and frolic, will doubtless be glad for these brief glimpses into school days, We hope you will laugh at our jokes, enjoy the review of social events and also appreciate our more sober efforts to make P. H. S. the best old school in Ohio, We have done our best to secure correctly the names and addresses of all members. If, however, mistakes are foumd, we hope that you will accept them with good grace. Many years may have rolled by since your former associations with P. H. S. But keep in touch with our school! Be a Booster! We earnest- ly appreciate at all times the help and cooperation of the general public and also of the graduates of P. H. S. For the alumni we certainly desire that its list may rapidly grow longer as the years increase and that the preparation secured at the High School will pave the way to a useful and happy life.
