PIQOLOGUE
'All the worldis a stage,
And all the men and women, merely players."
---William Shakespeare
Lasl noles of music die away,
The curlain rises on lhe play,
The scene is Here-The lime. Today.
The play is merely a Revue
Of four years, during which lhere grew
Young men and women, brave and lrue.
Each pupil has a leading parl,
As deslined from 'rhe very s'rar+,
To be performed wilh happy hearl.
Baclcsfage +he Jreachers lend 'rheir aid
As promplers in The huge parade
Of Talenl being Jrhere displayed.
The scenes will slip by very lash
And so, before The chance is pas'r,
Please come baclcsfage and meel' our casf.

pared by The graduaTing class in The Torm oT This year book.

Many gallons oT "midnighT oil" have been burned, much hair has been pulled, many
TighTs have been ToughT, in order To make This book aTTracTive To The sTudenTs. JusT
as wiTh all previous annuals aT The beginning no one ever expecTed To see The book
in prinT. Now ThaT iT is finished, The only worry of The compilers consisTs in The hope
ThaT iT meeTs wiTh The approval of all who read iT.
When you read This "STeuben", remember ThaT iT is due To The labors of The

AnoTher "Big Red" array was whipped inTo

Them To The end. A few new faces appeared in The
Sfeubenville backfield because of injuries To The
regular backs. Brown, a freshman, played his Tirsf
varsiTy game aT halfback. Love was shifTecl Trom
his cenTer posifion To fullback. The "PoTTers" made
The only score of The game by inTercepTing a
Sfeubenville pass and running iT back 30 yards Tor

game aT guard. The final score was Easf Liverpool.
6: STeubenville O.
Taking parT in high school fooTball for The lasT
Time in The EasT Liverpool game many of The regu-
lars made ready To bid adieu To Their uniforms as
well as To Their Alma MaTer. These boys were:
RoberT Mike, Jack Sfauffer, Ted SaTula, ErnesT
STarr, Paul HaTcher, and Alf Carducci.
This was probably The worsT season experienced
by any "Big Red" Team. Much crediT musT be given
To our coach "Punque" CarTledge. who, Though

regulars, managed To puT Togefher The besT pos-
sible combinafion Thar could be formed from The

Long 'before a band was even ThoughT oT, There was an orchesTra in The'school
which. under The direcTorship oT John Phillips, played Tor assemblies and The com-
mencemenT. Since Then. we have had as direcTors. Hugo Miksch, G. AusTin Kuhns
and Howard Beckes. The developmenT oT an orchesTra is necessarily slower Than ThaT
of a band as iT Takes much longer To Train The players oT sTring insTrumenTs Than iT
does The wind insTrumenTs.
ln The lasT Three years. Through The eTforTs oT Mr. Kuhns, addiTional insTrumenTs
were added. so ThaT finally The necessary insTruimenTaTion Tor enTrance inTo conTesT
was reached. ln The disTricT conTesT in '38 we Tied wiTh Bellaire Tor a second raTing
which was The highesT given. ln '39 The orchesTra showed iTs abiliTy by winning a
Superior plus raTing in The disTricT and a second or ExcellenT raTing in The STaTe con-
TesT in Columbus. This year, on March 29. This organizaTion,gain received a Superior
plus raTing in The disTricT conTesT aT Muskingum College.
The presidenT oT The group is Ranier DelnTinis: The concerT masTer' is Mario

Jessie Told us ThaT Johnny Morrelli was iusf opening a new nighT spof, The " '40 Club,"
wiTh an escorf bureau To lure The fun-loving maidens. In The evening we decided To
