Text from Pages 1 - 104 of the 1920 volume:

b QWCPDbI'GDCQF -Zif- F you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting. too; If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or. being lied about. don't aeal in lies, Or being hated, donit give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise. If you can dream-and not make dreams your master; If you can think-and not make thoughts your aim. If you, can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two imposters just the same: If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken. And stop and Build em up with worn-out tools. If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss And lose. and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss: If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will whiich says to them: Hold on. if you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue. Or walk with kinanor lose the common touch. If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you. but none too much: If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it. And which is moreoyouql be a Man. my son! eRucIyard Kipling. Ellnremnrh Within the pages of this book are recorded all the worth-while deeds and all the triumphs of the Senior Class of 1920. Long after the members of the class, as individuals, have been forgotten, this annual will be a testimonial of their loyalty to the school in which they spent four happy years. Our School Mr .1, m- : . - uu ln-n w- un uu-mHm-uu-u-uhnn nn- .1 We respectfully dedicate our annual to our Principal, George E.

Student Council, Vice- president of the class, Oratorical Contest. Hurrah for Dot, our little editor. and one of the most pcpular girls of the Senior Class! We are all willing to take off our hats to the brightest and most capable girl of the Class of '20. Some day we expect that her literary ability will cause her name to be listed in the Hall of F ame. But Dot, with all her brilliance. is still far from a grind. Her ability to get up good times is well known. and she has been the ariginator of many of our class parties. And. oh- those eyes! They are the kind that haunt a fellow clay and night. May fortune smile upon, and life be kind to our Dorothy! WALTER BROKER Pete What a grace was seated on his brow. Presitient of the class. Dramatic Club. Baseball Team. Gleam Stall, Remembrance! Staff. president of Student Council. Traffic Squad,.Track Team, Gym Team. There are several reasons why the Senior Class of I919- 20 has achieved success in all its undertakings. One of the most important of these reasons is the indefatigable activity and upepn of its popular president. Walter Broker. In the four years which he has spent at Walnut Hills High School Pete has distinguished himself both as a hero op the base- ball diamond and as a booster of all school activities. He has worked so untiringly for the good of the school. and has shown such marked ability in leadership, that his classmates have voted him the most popular and most capable boy in the senior class. JULIA PARKER $5Judyll 'Tis better to be small and shine Than to be great and cast a shadow. Dramatic Club. Debating Club, Student Council, Class Orator, Gleam Staff. Remembrancer Staff. Debating Team. nJudy is one of the most popular girls in the class,. and she is a general favorite with the members of the lower grades. She has a habit of winning honors in every contest which she enters, and she has gained distinction as an essayist, an orator. and a debater. Judy has displayed remarkable ability in her contributions to The Cleam and to The Remembracer. Even with her school duties Judy always hnds time to take an active part in all social alfairs. Oh, shes a Jewel. and a rare one indeed! Ten Eleven f ,1. tI'- ROBERT L. BILTZ Bob Be always as merry as ever you can, For no one delights in a sorrowful man. Dramatic Club, Debating Club. captain of TrivState De- bating Team, Gym Team, Gleam Staff. Remembrancer Stag Chee' Leader. Student Council. Track Team. Oratorical Contest. captain Traffic Squad Bob will ever be remembered as the indefatigable cheer leader of 1920. Both as a trackman and as a membEI 0f the Gym Team. he has made an enviable record for himself. Bob has the honor of having been voted the brightest of all the brilliant boys of the class '20. Considering the fact that he is making four years in three. that's not a bad record! We know that the vigor and pep which Bob has displayed at Walnut Hills will always assure him success elsewhere. KATHERINE GALBREATH Kitty Her eyes, as stars of twilight fair, Like twilight, ion. her dusky hair. Gleam Staff. Kitty is our class beauty. and we can all testify that. her prettiness is more than skin deep. Her outstanding talent is her artistic ability. Anyone who wishes to see a product of her genius may search through a Seniior girYs memory book, where he will probably find a page on which Kitty has drawn a pretty lady. Katherineis winning ways have gained for her a host of friends among both the girls and the boys. JAMES TULL Jimmy A king is he. a king he'll be; We wonder who the queen mill bee, Dramatic Club, Debating; Club. Debating Team, Gleam Stafi, Remembrancer Stati, Student Council. captain Gym Team. Football Team, treasurer of Senior Class, Track Team. Oratorical Contest, Traffic Squad. Jimmy,H with his unfailing goodvhumor and his spirit of good fellowship. is one of the best-liked boys in the class. He has been a booster in all our school activities. His Herculean feats in the Gym have won him the name of the most athletic boy of the class of ,20, while his place- cn the Debating Team, which was twice victorious, proves that he has brains as well as brawn. As a jazz artist he simply ucan't be beat. Jimmy's ambition in life is to enter the ministry. We think he'll be q success in this profession if he is careful not to shimmy or jazz the hymns too much! MARGARET GUSS hlPeggy,. uHar modest ways and friendly deeds, Mala: strong and hm: the friendship seeds. Dramatic Club. Debating Club, Debating Team, Gleam Staif, Remembrancer Stalin Peggy is one of the. faithful members of the class, and she is always willing to do the little things each day; Some of the iilittle things Peggy has accomplished are: directing the literary section of our Remembrancer, writing numberless articles for The Gleam. and winning debates! Not a bad record, we think! Whenever Peggy receivrs an unusually nice compliment she squelches the ardent giveris spirits by exclaiming. Hor- rors! I But with all your faults, Peggy, we love you still. Now don't say Horrors! MELVILLE TIMM Mel Life is a jest and all things show it; I though! so once and now I know it. Gym Team. Remembrance: Staff. Behold the handscmest boy of the class of ,20, and the only living lady killeriMelville Timm. Mel is a. general favorite with his classmates 01nd a general nuisanceh-some- timestto the facultVl. His positiop as business manager of the Remembrancer has given him a chance to shuw the stuff he,s made of, and he has proved to be all gold. We believe that Mel has that grit and determination which spells success. May Fortune open her portals to him! AGNES RUTHERFORD l'Ag Hard work makes the world move on. I'm up and working with the dawn. Dramatic Club, Student Council, Debating Club. Agnes might well be termed an all arouz-td sort of girl, for at times she is capable of the most serious thoughts, even though she is usually ready to join her friends in a lark. She is pretty, too, and it's worth a fortune to see those dimples playing hicle and seek in her cheeks. Her classmates have voted Agnes the most ambitious girl in the class, and we know that her fine spirit of do or die will assure her success wherever she goes. Don't forget, Agnes, we're expect'ng big things of you some day. Timelye Thirteen HELEN SIGAFOOSE Through iifc I'll giggle my way. Dramatic Club. The cutest girl in the class of 1920 is our little bob- haired Helen. Her sunny smiles and her ever-ready giggle 1m a sure cure for the blues. Ask Douglas $4; 1'18 kncws! Helen ha5 displayed great dramatic ability and we think the role of Lady Marian in the play, Sherwood, suits her to perfection. She's such a nice l'ttle lover! Helen's pet expression is, Oh, I'm tickled silly! And the best part of it is that her spirit of optimism is so ketching that everyone around her feels ttkicd silly, too. in spite of himself. DOUGLASS ROSSELLE nDoug And .otcr that broad fair brow mere wrought The intersected lines of thought. Dramatic Club. Gym Team. Gleam Staff, Remembrancer Staff. Douglass is a whiz when it comes to mathematics, for problems which send us ordinary mortals into the depths of despair don't even phase him. We wonder how he ugot that way! When it comes to Pym team work, too, we have to ac- knowledge that uDounx is Wight there with the goods. One of his most commendable qualities is that he is not afraid of work. In fact, when the'e,s work to he done one can usuw ally count on his being Johnnyvon-thevspot. Doug proves the rule which states that opposites attract, for he. though himself a blonde has 511an a decided prefer ence for a certain brunette we know. Can you guess her name? KATHERINE HUNGARLAND Her eyes are bright and her face is fair, But her crowning glory is lighi-blmd hair. Dramatic Club, Glee Club. Katherine has a disposition just like her hair, iibright and fair, and she is famed for her perpetual smile! Whenever her friends think of hay they will be sum to remember the Christmas play in Which she starred as Mrs. Cratchitt. She surely made a hit on the stage! Besides her dramatic talent, Katherine is also bletsed with an unusually tine voicei The class of 120 wishes Katherine every happiness in years to come. WARREN C. FTSHBACK Fish 1 am resolved, lilac the sun. always to look on the bright .side of everything. Dramatic Club, Gym Team, Football Team, Baseball Team, Remembrancer Staff, Track Team. The wittiest boy in the class 6f 'ZO-thatk Fish! There may be times when he has answered, unprepared. in class. but there never was a lime when he was unprepared with a joke or a laugh. Fish is a star baseball player, and is a tower of strength on the diamond. Those long legs of his are surely goqd at making runs which send the score way up lc-r Walnut H 115. We cannot accurately predict F ish's future. but we imagine that the coming years will End him either playing ball for the Reds, or starring as an actor! DOROTHY AMMERMAN Dot Who is Dorothy. what is she That all our swains commend her .3 Dramatic Club. Student Council, Remembrancer Staff. Sec- retary of the Class. Three cheers for Dorothy, our most popular girl! The class of '20 certainly is lucky in being blessed with so many Dots. We wonder, though. how this particular Dot got her name. for she looks more like an exclamatiion point t0 than a dot Ll to us. Dot is a regular live wire and where there's misch'ef brew- irg one can usually count on linding her in the'thi-ck of the plot. And oh, boy-n-that smile! We don't wonder that Dot's so proficient in the art of catching-Fish! ROWLETT YOUNG l iDcc Forever foremost in the ranks of fun, The laughing herald of a harmless pun. Dramatic Club. Baseball Team. Football Team, Gleam Staff. uDoc is little, but oh my! H63 a Uregular fellow, well liked by all his classmates. And say. when it comes to dancing. Doc's right there Hwith hells on. He is as light as a feather on his feet tsometimes in head. it, we fearl. and he has a notable reputation as an accomplished shoulder shaker. Doe's one weak spot isvgirls! 'He seems to have a failing for the fair sex and from all appearances the fair sex returns the compl'ment, so everybady's happy. The class of '20 expect great deeds from Doc some dav. for even if he doesn't take the straight and narrow path to Success, we,ll venture to say he will get there eventually. F aurteen Fifteen MARIE WAGER .IRie.I A comrade blithe and full of glee, Who dares to laugh out full and free. Remembrancer Staff. Dramatic Club, Glee Club. Our jolly, lovable Marie is one of the boosters of the Senior Class activities. One may always depend on Marie being on hand to help out wherever she is neededeas the accompanist for the Girls, Glee Club, as a router for the base- ball team. as a collector of dues for the Dramatic Club. or as a promoter of fun at our parties. Marie possesses marked ability in music. and she has helped out in many of our entertainments by her piano solos. The class of '20 sends its best wishes with you. Marie, when you leave the portals of dear old Walnut Hills. CARL KOCH A solemn youth with sober phiz, Who cats hi5 grab and minds his biz. Dramatic Club, Debating Club, captain of Tri-State Debat- ing Team. Baseball Team. Football Team, Gleam Staff. Remembrancer Staff, Gym Team. Carl's achievements during the year of '20 speak for them- selves anti are sensational. to say the least! He starred in the Gym Exhibition. and has taken an active part in all ath- letics. at the same time maintaining an enviable record in his studies. He was captain of a debating team whiich was twice. victorious. The class of '20 hope for great things from Carl in the future. ELIZABETH RUGG Betty uOn with the dance, 1c! joy be uncamincd'. 'Dramatic Club. Betty is the social butterfly and the star ballroom dancer of the Senior Class. Her favorite expression is, i'Thn-Hs! or iiHawperfecily wicrd! The trait which her classmates must love in Betty is her willingness to put herself out to help her friends. Whenever there is a play in process Betty may be found behind the scenes making up the performers with untiring efforts. Betty's ambition in life is to become a triained nurse. May success he hers! DUTRO BLOCKSOM t tDutt ' I came a stranger, and ye tool: me in. Dramatic Club, Remembrancer StaE. Athletic Council, Gym Team, Football Team, Baseball Team. Track Team. Aha, ladies and gentlemen! Allow me to present to you Bud Fisher's future rival. Mr. Dunn Blocksom, our com; ing cartoonist! In the one year that Dut has been with us he has so earnestly supported all our school activities that we wonder how we ever struggled along for three years without him! His athletic prowess as well as his artistic genius has made him a i'aluable member of the class of ,20. Here's luck to you, Dutro, in all that you may undertake! MARGARET FITZGERALD Fitzy A little nonsense now and then 1.5 reiished by the best of men. Dramatic Club. , Fitzy, is a general favorite with her classmates, and we can all agree that she is more fun than a picnic. No matter how far down in the dumps a fellow may feel, Fitzy always has a. smile and a witty saying that is bound to cheer him up. Margarefs artistic ability is a delight to all her. friends. and some day the girls of the class of '20 expect tp be wearing frocks desigried by the famous Madame Fitzgerald! JOHN HARDING Dinkalacker I can live without boaks-e What is knowledge but grieving. Remembrancer Staff. John is a jolly good fellow who wears his heartein his vest pocket! Nothing ever worries him. not even being. called on in i'Math or Spanish. He is always optimistic and cheerful. Even reports cannot disturb his serenity. As assistant business manager of the Remembrancer John has done his share of work for the class of '20. All in all. Chaucer would have described him. He is a parht knight Sixteen Seventeen ROSALIN D GANTZ 802,, She likes a good lime and she's a lovable lass. And we're all of us glad she's one of our class. Dramatic Club. If all the California girls are like Rosalind, we wouldn't care if they'd ship us a whole carload! To know her is to love her may be truly said of Rosalind. Although our little California miss has not been with us long, she has thrown herself so whole-hearteclly into the activities of the Senior Class that she has proved she has caught the true spirit of Walnut Hills High School. At present Rosalind's ambition in life is to be either a social worker 01' a neWspaper reporter, and we know that she'll be sure to succeed in anything she undertakes! JOHN CAMPBELL The love of books is a love which requires neither justiv fication, apology, nor defense. Dramatic Club John was voted the most serious boy in the class, and his high marks prove that he is a good student. But we notice that he usually manages to get his share o-f fun and play, too. He is prohcient as a jazz artist. although he is modest about displaying his talent. John is always willing to back our school affairs, and if he is as dependable in later life as he has proved to be at Walnut Hills, there is no doubt that success awaits him in all his undertakings. ALI CE HUERKAMP Al 1's wicked, 1 1'5, 1'5 mighty wicked; anyhow I can't help it! Dramatic Club, Remembrancer Staff, Student Council. Treasurer for Room I. llClass dues, please! is the phrase uttered most frequently by Alice. Why? Because she holds the postion of assistant class treasurer. And a difficult position it is, too! But lCAI makes the best of all the difticulties attached to her office, for she wears an ineradicable smile even when collecting or asking for the dues. Her jc-lly little giggle helps dispel the despondency which prevails in Room I on the hrst of each month. Good luck to you. Al! Always show the same degree of enthusiasm and detefmination which you showed at Walnut Hills and we predict a bright and happy future for you. MAX LEWIS hBlessings on thee, little man! 'Gym Team, Dramatic Club. Although Max has spent but a year at Walnut Hills High 'V'ScheOL he- hag already gained distinction among his classmates. He has such a quiet. unassuming way of accomplishing things that it was not until he carried off a prize in the Army Essay Contest that his fellow students began to appreciate the good. steady work which he had been doing all yeah ' 'Max has been given the title of the cutest bov in the Senior C1355. But cuteness is by no means his chief char- acteristic, for those who know him best realize that the reason he is so well liked by his classmates is because he has always proVed himself to he a good sport. KATHERINE WICKWARE Calm, steady. a'nd modest is this maiden. Whenever Katherine is missing. one can usuallymunt on locating her in the gym. She is certainly a star athlete. You ought to see her 316m over those horses. Katherine has a large following of E and F Grade girls who dog her every step. We can,t blame them a bit, though, for we are all crazy abeut her. Some day, doubtless. we shall hear of her as a famous directress of physical education. EDMUND PICHEI. uEi A form lilac herald Mercury. New lighted on a heaven-leissing hill. Ed slipped quietly into the ranks of the Senior Class in the latter part of the school year. In spite of the handicap of his late arrival he has displayed great aptness in mastering his studies. especially that bug-a-bear Math. Much of his time is spent in working outside of schcoi. so only a few of his cla55e mates have had a. chance to know him intimately. However. his appearance in the classroom is usually a signal for a lively discussion in which he takes a prominent part. Ed's work in the Gym has been very creditable. and he -fiqln- afw is especially proficient as a high jumper. $ L - i , The class of ,20 hopes that his future efforts will always be awarded with success. Eighteen N ineleen SOPHIE NASON Sopli All may have, If they dare try, a glorious life or grave. Dramatic Club, Athletic -Association To the question. Where is Sophie? the safest and most probable answer is. In her favorite haunt. the Gym. Sophie is the mistress of almost every gymnastic feat, however difficult. and is simply a wonder atlfancy dancing.- Of course Sophiels enthusiasm is keenest When she is boost- ing any athletic enterprise, but sherisualwaysrready to.lend a helping hand to make any class or school affair a-iuooess. As for partieSewell, Soph'e is always there with a happy, con- tagious smile and a friendly word for everybody. CHARLES LANE, JR. iiCharley A sunny disposition is the very soul of succcu. Dramatic Club, Football Team. Gym Team, Charley is small, but so was Napoleon! He has a reput tation for getting into mischief, but somehow he always ngts away with it. The mourners' bench surely will feel lonely. thcugh, when Charley graduates. It is true that Charley has never attained perfection in the art of studying; neverthelessi he manages to pull thrcugh and is just as calm and goodenaluied about it as if he hadn't had a uclose shave. The class of ,20 predicts that Charley's sunny disposition and his determination to do well whatever he sets out to do will assure him success in his future career. EVELYN STEWART .. E-vyu Darla hair, shining eyes, Merry laughicr, sheis a prize. C-le: Club. It will have to be admitted that studying is not Evelynls favorite passtime. but when you want a iolly camnanion v'h'i is ready for fun, whyeEvelyn's the girl you're looking for. Evy is one of the best fancy dancers 9f the clas: of '20. Did you ever see her twirl around on her toes? These who have seen her perform will admit that it is same feat. Evelyn has only one terrible fault and that is her inability to reach school on timFespechlly since the tardy bell rings live minutes earlier. But just because ifs Evelyn. and be- cause her many virtues counterbalance her one fault, we'll forgive her! K DOROTHY COOPER llDot l'A maiden never bold. Of spirit still and quiet. Dot is one of the sweetest girls in the whole school. Her sparkling blue eyes and broad smile have won the admiration- ol all her classmates. Although she is very quiet. those who know her best have discovered that she is full of fun. She's surely some little dancer, too! May happiness always be yours, Dot! ROBERT DOOLEY Bob Ready in heart and ready in hand. On first appearance Bob gives one the impression of being- a very serious-minded boy who is rather a book Worm. At a second glance, however, one will espy a merry twinkle in his big blue eyes, which betrays an underlying spirit of fun in his make-up. It was this spirit of fun in him and his ever- present sense of humor which won for Bob the name of the Biggest Giggler of the class of '20. Robert is naturally very bright, and this trait. coupled with the fact that he has a very optimistic and sunny disposition. will help him a lot in making a name for himself in future life. VIRGINIA MAYER liLei not ambition made her useful tail. Virginia came to us at the beginning of the year. from the sunny South. Her quiet, steady perseverance in her studies has been an inspiration to all of us. and we only wish that we t-uld have had four years of Virginiis company instead of one. The best wishes of her classmates go with her in what- ever she may undertake. Twanty Twenty-Onc HELEN ROLF HAlways joyous, delighting in fun, A smile for alienot just for one. Dramatic Club. Our fair:headed Helen, with her ever-ready giggle. is one of the liveliest occupants of Room I. Even pedagogical frowns cannot squelch her cheerful spirits. Helen spends most of her time just being jolly and friendly with the bunch. Helen's always in demand at our dances in the Gym. for she is very good as a jazz artist. The class of '20 prophesy that Helen's optimistic disposi- tion will always be a great asset in making friends for her. STANLEY MILLS 'tStan Built for comfort, notI for speed. Good nature and an unsurpassable lazineSS are the two qualities which are most characteristic of Stan. One may usually find him reclining in a sequestered corner, just as far away from anything that looks like work as possible. And oh, how he hates those gym periods under Dr. Koch's eagle eye! Howaver, Stan's broad and everlasting smile, which goes with his unending good nature. is just as characteristic of him as his laziness. Sometime, perhaps, after Stanley has had a good nighfs sleep, he,ll wake up and do something startling. Go to it, Stan. the class of ,20 would like nothing better than to see you set the world on fire! MARY SARVER Here's a lovely young lady. Who's just in her heyday. And full of all mischief. I Ween. Dramatic Club. Mary has the distinction of being the wittiest girl at the Senior Class. and she certainly has the gift of a brilliant convarsationaliet. Besides this, she is one pf our class beauties. There is never a day that passes in which some girl does not- go into rapturcs over Mary's perfect coiffure. Mary is another one of the artistic members of our class. Some day, perhaps, she will join the ranks of those famed in the graphic art. MARTHA JONES To be little is to be loved. Dramatic Club. Martha. with her happy-go-lucky disposition. is one of the live wires of the class of ,20. Never study today what might be studied tomorrow, is Marthais motto. Her unceas- ing chatter is g constant source of entertainment to her class- mates. and of despair to her teachers. Martha possesses marked ability as an elocutiunist, although she usually has to be teased into displaying her talent. Mod- esty is all right, Martha, but you are not na. Hower born to blush unseen and waste its sweetness on the desert air. Some day we expect big things of you. Martha. IVAN MCLEOD Only what thou art in thyself determines thy value. Debating Club, Gym Team, Oratorical Contest. Ivan is one of the ubright lights of the class of '20, and c1eserves great commendation for his excellent class-room work. Like many worthwhile people. he is silent unless he has something to say which is really worth listening to. Ivan has been a firm supporter of all our school activities. and his creditable work in the Debating Club and in the Cree tcrical Contest proves his ability as a public speaker, The class of '20 predicts that Ivan's quiet and determined way of accomplishing things will assure him success in his future undertakings, LEDA ROBERTS A good heart is better than all the' heads in the world. A quiet, unobtrusive manner is characteristic of Leda. She has displayed great diligence and faithfulness in her studies. and her name may usually be found among the select few on the honor roll. Leda's greatest ambition is to become a trained nurse, and her friends feel that her quiet, cheerful ways will make her very valuable in this'profession. If ever we feel sick. Leda, we'll lcnow where to go for help! Twenty-Tmo TwcivahTee ELIZAB ETH HELFFERICH nBetty uAs maiden should be, miid and meek. Quick to hear and slow to speak. Dramatic Club. Our little Miss Lizzie. with her abundance of real red hair and her cheery. friendly manner. is a general favorite of the class. Although she does not talk much in public, she is always going about helping other people by her kind words and witty sayings. Elizabeth ppssesees great powers of achievement yet un- tried, and we know that she will grasp the opportunity to use them in the future. Our best wishes for happiness and succefs go with you, Elizabeth. GILBERT ORNELAS elcilil His air, his voice, his honest soul. Speak all so muvingly in his behalf. Dramatic Club, Baseball Team, Football Team Gil, in spite of his big, cave-man appearance, is at heart a bashful boy who rather shuns the girls, Still we nnt'cari that in the play Sherwood, his arm slipped quite naturally around Lady Nlartirl.n Oil is certainly a star actor and he pcssesses an unusually fme voice, both in speaking and singing. Gil has quite a reputation as an athlete and has done hi1 share in winning victories for Walnut Hills, both on the gridiron and on the diamond. The class of '20 wish him success in all his future enterprises. KATHRYN PICHEL The lady doth protest too much, me thinks. Dramatic Club, Debating Club. Glee Club Katherine is the youngest membd' of our graduating class. and a girl full of ambition and school spirit. She was chosen by popular vote the biggest tease among the girls. And did you ever hear her giggle? But even though she likes to tease and to giggle, she does not spend all her time doing 50; she can settle down to brass tacks and be as grave in her manner as the most serious one of the class. Katherine. the class of ,20 know that success is assured for you in anything you undertake if you remain the same Katherine We knew at Walnut Hills. DOROTHY CROSSWELL Dot She is pretty to walli- with, And willy ta tall: with, And pheasant, too, to think an. Dramatic Club, Glee Club. iiDot is the songbird of the class of '20. Her beautiful 50- prano voice was one of the most attractive features of our Gleam Staff Vaudeville. Anyone who has heard Dot sing is na-t likely to soon forget it. Dorothyis voice is not her only asset, however. for she has a happy. friendly disposition. which has made her much be- loved by her classmates. Those who know her best can testify that she is as jolly a companion as one could hope for. Her classmates predict success for her in whatever held of warlc, her future lies. HERBERT FAST Herbi, uHiS air, his voice, his honest soul Speak all .so movingly in his behalf? Dramatic Club. Herb, the handsome blonde of the class of '20, is one Of the best HalI-au'ounci fellows in the school. He has distin- guished himself as an actor, by means of a fine voice. and he gives every indication of being another iiBarrymore. Herbie is an ihail powerful member of the baseball team. and is also an excellent dancer. Besides these assets, he has the unusual distinction of being the class dude. Shine for Mr. Fast, please! A11 in all, Herbie is a clever lad and gives promise of a brilliant future. ANNA SCHLAN A kind hear! and a capable head. Have won for her success. Gleam Representative of Room 1. Everybody likes Anna. for she's so jolly and good-natured that it is a treat to be near her. Those pretty auburn curls of hers are the admiration of many a girl-they're natural, you know! Anna's bright hair covers a head which contains an even brighter intellect. She is a regular Latin fiend. Read- ing Virgil is as much fun for her as reading novels is for some folks. Her classmates wish Anna the best of iiluek in whatever she may do in after life. Twenly-Four. Twenty-Five ERMA ERWIN Still waters run deep. Bright. did you say? Well. we should say she is! The less studious members of the class of I920 always heave a sigh of relief when Erma is called upon to recite, for they know that the question which hhame to themh they cannot answer, will be skillfully handled by the girl whose name always heads the special honor roll. She doesn,t believe in making a fuss over high marks, either; but when she gets one humired in a test. she just keeps quiet and resolves to do better next time! PAULINE JACKSON Paulie My mind aspires to higher things, Crows rich in that which never takelh rust. Surely our class would not be complete without Paulie, who is always ready for a good time or earnest study, a3 the occasion demands. ; Pauline is endowed with a lovely soprano voice. and all who have heard her sing anticipate a brilliant musical career for her. She is a faithful student, and whatever her ambition may be, we are conhdent that a successful future awaits her. JESSIE GREER Her voice was ever soft and low, An excellent thing in woman. A very soft voice and a sweet, unassuming manner has made Jessie well liked by her classmates. No one ever saw her in anything but a pleasant mood, and she is always willing to help a more thoughtless classmate by lending a book or recalling an assignment. She has been with us only one year. but in that time she has proved herself to be a valuable acquisition to the class of 70.

MARGARET GU55 WAS patiently poring over my allotted lines of Virgil for the next day's lesson when suddenly I seemed to stand beside Aeneas oh the brink of the river of forgetfulness. Across the stream I saw a beatntifui city 3.116 a voice whiSpered to me, that as I had been faithful in following Aeneas. I was now to take a journey myself and survey the future lives of my classmates in the HCity of the Years to Come. I was immediately transported across the river in a submergible aeroplane. which bore the trademark of HRosselle 3t Company. As I walked up to the gates of the city I heard several girls singing a song whieh sounded remarkably like llSemper Fidelisf, and I recagnized Dorothy Croswell's voice rising above the rest. I entered the city and the Flrst thing I noticed was the new edihce of the classical high school, the memorial Ieft by the class of I920. The walls of the building were covered with advertisements. the mute testimonial to Mellville Tlmnfs business ability. and the Hours were laid with pennies from the class treasury collected by Alice Huerkamp. Here I saw several classmates who had risen to honored positions on the faculty. Kathryn Pichel was head of the Department of Modern Languages, and Julia Parker. Professor of Science. had just received a pro-meritus badge for her work in Chemistry in the school. but was about to abandon this wonk to write a book on The Crisis in the MiniStry. Virginia Mayer was interviewing the principal of the school in regard to a position in the Sc'ence Department as successor to Miss Parker. I inspected the laboratory on the fourth Hoor, where Max Le MS was working out a patent medicine, iII-Icvw t3 Grcw Tall in TwentV-four Hsurs. He was assisted by Paul Cook and Robert Dooley, who prepared the distilled water. The crowning feature of the building was the gymnasium on the tenth Hoar, where Sophie Nasun and Katherine Wickware ruled supreme. In the auditorium, John CampbeII. who had just returned from a trip through the Alps. was delivering a lecture on uGlaciers.H Thirty As I left the school I met Katherine Gaibreath and Rosalind Cantz. who weze making a visit in the part of the city. I learned that they were conducting a branch of Walnut Hills High School in Cali- fornia, for those who desire a higher education. Near the school I noticed a large publishing home where James Tull edited his magazine, iIVVoman's Work Outside of the Home. The special feature of the current issue was an article by Dorothy Koch, entitled, HLatin a5 a Cure for Prussianism.n The latest bulletin in the window announced that Carl Koch, who had been shot to Mars ten years ago, had just been heard from and that Charles Lane was starting on a flight to rescue him. On the main street of the city stood the huge building erected by Stanley Mills. where the Executive Council of the League of Nations was holding a session. I was rather surprised to see that Robert Biltz presided. and that Walter Broker was one of the prominent nine gentlemen about the table. Bob was standing upon a chair, leading a cheer for Agnes Rutherford. who occupied an honored place as the first woman member of the Council. On a suburban street I noticed a dressmaking establishment conducted by Dorothy Cooper and Mary Sarver, the famous costumer, from Paris. They were interviewing Margaret Fitzgerald and Elizabeth Rugg, the designers from New York. in regard to the season,5 styles. On the second Hour of the building Elizabeth HelEerich, in partnershiip with Heien Rolf, offered treatment in HReal Red Hair, Guaranteed to Curl. Here I saw Evelyn Stewart. who was having a brilliant career behind the Jfoot- Iights, and I accompanied her to the home of Katherine Hungarland, who had formerly been one of her companions, but now was busy in a home of her own. Farther along was a domestic school established by Leda Roberts, Martha Jones and Jessie Greer. The work of the school Was a great success, for twenty out of the twentyvtwo graduates had entered the state of matrimony within a month after the date of their graduation. Across the street, Erma Erwin and Pauline Jackson were just establishing a rival vocational school according to the plan of the famous Boys' Vocational School. conducted by Ivan MCLEOCI- As I walked along the street I met Marie Wager, who had just made a tour of the world as ac- ccmpanist for the famous Shoulder-Shaking Vocal Quartet, directed by Rowlette Youngt I went with her to Redland Field, where I saw the championship Reds, under the leadership of Captain Fishback, playing the final game. Of course, Dorothy Ammemnon was there. unchanged through the years. cheering her uFish as usual! I seon left the ballheld and came to a large theater, where John Harding was appearing in his new play, The Dinhalacker. with scenes by Dutro Blecksom. The attraction for the next week advertised Herbert Fast, the famous villain, now appearing with Helen Sigafobse, in the Latin play which waa discovered in the ruins of Walnut Hills High School. and translated by Anna Schlan. I entered the theater in time to hear the closing solo by Gilbert Ornelas. V As the music ceased the lights died out, Ieaeving me in utter darkness. I was just beginning to wonder if any such glorious achievements awaited me in the years to come when I saw before me in Flaming gold the words, Sursum ad Summum. This acute reminder of Latin brought me to my senses. and at sight of the open book I returned with a sigh to my lesson.

Although we, the members of the Freshman Class, took great interest in our studies, we were ales very active in war work, and won for our class an enviable reputation by cultivating a greater numlzer of successful war gardens than any other class in the school. However, one must not believe that we spent the entire year either engrossed in books or toiling in gardens. Many enjoyable social events took place, and our Freshman year ended hap- pily with a jolly picnic. The second year of our high-school life was quite different from the first. Although the armistice was signed in 1918, and the oppressive atmosphere of war removed, another calamity in the form of an epidemiic of inHuenza befell us. Because of this epidemic the schools were closed for many Weeks, and we were obliged to pay strict attention to lessons for the remainder of the school year in order to make up the work lost during the enforced Vacatgon. We worked untir1'ng1y. but nevertheless we founi time for a few class parties and for a hnal picnic. When we returned to school at the beginning of our third year we found that there was a change in the school, as well as in ourselves. The six-year college preparatory course had been introduced into Walnut Hills High School. We were placed under the supervision of a new principal and a new atmosphere pervaded the school. but we soon adjusted our selv as to the changed conditions which existed in our school. Our Junior year has been the most enjoyable year we have spent together. Social events have occupied a greater place in our school life this year. -The members of the class have become better acquainted with one another than in preceding years, and have laid a foundation upon which a united and successful Senior Class can be built. We look forward with great enthusiasm to the coming year, and hope that we will be able to per- form the duties and uphold the traditions of Walnut Hills High School as conscientiously as the classes which. have preceded us have done.

Then we marched to our several rooms, where the rolls. were called and where many friendships Were renewadt Thus began the sophomore year of the class of '22. Looking back on the preceding year. we are filled with contempt for our former weak, trembling. easily awed selves. We had entered Walnut Hills full of bright. glowng expectations. and once theree we found them realized! The first few months of high school life were so very strange; and then we discovered a feeling of kinshio with our classmates. an unknown-befc-re fondness for certain teachers, a growing loyalty to Walnut Hills High School. We soon felt that it was a glorious thing to be able to boast of our schoohs wonderful traditionseher present fame; and we resolved to leave behind a record as proud as that of any of our predecessors. When we came back to school and to a new regime in September, 19l9, we were in a raging, indiga nant mood. Cone was the highly superior feeling which we had entertained for the erstwhile humble freshies. Formerly freshies were made to feel the ignominy of their position as the youngest and least privileged members of the school. But since the advent of the E and F Graders. the D Graders could almost be termed upper classmen. Only one blissful compensation remained to usewe now had three grades to subjugate! Filled with a sense of responsibility during our sophomore year. we have taken an energetic part in many of the activities of the school. The motto, u.Surssvum ad Summun. is acquiring a new meaning for us. We are going to live up to that motto in all our undertakings. May our class colors ever symbolize Honor. Loyalty, Courage, and Progress! For the honor of our school. Onward, '22! Thirty-Ninc Jerome Allen Christine Alford Clifford Anewalt Marjorie Bardir William.

The pupils in the Freshman Class have displayed a well-developed sense of humor in turning a good- natured prank; but they also have realized the student's debt to his teacher, and they have tried to show their appreciation of the teacher's efforts by doing faithful work.

HISTORY OF ttEL GRADE Doms M. CIFFORD, 124. O CTOBER I7. 1919, will go down in history as one of the most important of all dates, and there is no doubt that teachers of history will require their pupils to memorize it together with other dates marking great events in the world's progress. It was upon this day that the Walnut Hills Prepartory School began its existence, marking an epoch in the educational history of Cincinnati. On this day, one hundred and eight eighth grade pupils from all parts of the cityefrom Sedamsville on the west to Linwood on the east, from the Kentucky towns over the river to Pleasant Ridge on the northewended their way to Walnut Hills. As I watched these boys and girls enter the building I was filled with a hope that We. the iiE grade, the htst graduating classetoebe of the Classical High School, would accomplish all that was expected of us in blazing this new trail in public school education. Was there anything timid and bashful about us? No, for we came in with an air of self reliance and marched into the Assembly Hall as though We had been accustomed to it all of our school life. We listened very attentively to the inspiring words of our Principal, Mr. Davis, and our Superintendent, Dr. Condom, and then left for our home rooms with the lires of ambitibn burning in our hearts more brightly than ever. On the following Tuesday we were formally welcomed and were given a hearty reception by the faculty and students. Afterwards, the Senior girls took us through the building and made us feel as though we were a part of the school, and from that day our hearts have been in the work. Through the succeeding months of the years the E. grade, recognizing the fact that it is the pioneer class of the College Preparatory course, has always endeavored in conduct and work to attain a high mark, and to do its share towards establishing traditions of such a character that the future Alumni will look back to their Alma Mater with real affection and great pride.

These young people, fresh and eager, standing at the threshold of a new edu- cational career. have set an example of loyalty to the sehooi and of interest in its activities that may Well be emulated by the pupils of the upper grades, Since the day when the class of '25 was welcomed by the faculty and students, and made to feel a real part of the school, the members of the F Grade have endeavored to uphold the honored traditions of their new school. During the year the unfailing enthusiasm of the F Grade boys and girls, and their ready co-opera- lion in all school enterprises. has brought a deeper realization of the meaning of true schooi spirit and of the obligations im plied in the school motto. uSursum ad Summum.

Twentyefour years have elapsed since the initial appearance of this monthly publication, and each year those students who were chosen to compose its staff have continued the policies which were inaugurated when The Gleam was founded. Each successive staff has labored unceasing1y to maintain the high ideals which the paper has always upheld. and which, like the ugleam of Merlin in Tennyson's lines, have led it always onward and upward to higher and nobler planes of thought. The eight large issues of The Cleam which have appeared in the past year have been fined with entertaining stories and interesting articles which were contributed by the literary members of the school. But The Gleam of 191920 not only has been an interesting newspaper and story book to the pupils of Walnut Hills High School, it has also been a guiding influence in the months of transition through which the school has just passed. When the new six-year college preparatory course of study was introduced into Walnut Hills High School, The Gleam immediately assumed the leadership in the movement toward the appreciation of the advantages which this course would offer to the boys and gir1s of Cincinnati. In the past year The Gleam has played a part in molding the character and directing the activities of the school. Each year through the columns of The Clcam the lofty principles of the school have found expression. and through its pages the spirit of Walnut Hills High School has urged every member of the school to Hfollow The CIBam of high idealism. As one sees the enthusiasm with which every enterprise has been undertaken this year. one must realize to what tent The Cleam has succeeded in arousing every pupil to give the best of his time and talent on the field of high ideals by faithfully obeying its Sacred injunr: tion, Follow The Gleam.

DEBATING CLUB Carl Koch Charles Meade Ivan McLeod Donald King Joshua Leibman Melville Timm James Tull F ifiy W Mm- HE Walnut Hills High School Debating Club is one of the most prominent and successful organi- zations of the school. During the past year it has upheld the honorable rewrd which the school has maintained for many years. The club was organized in November, 1919, by the members of the three upper classes. under the supervision of Mr. Macke. James Tull was chosen president, Dorothy Koch, vice president, Margaret Guss, secretary, and Charles Meade, treasurer. Early in the school year the club accepted an invitation from the Louisville Boys' High School to cooperate with that school in forming a Tri-State Debating League, to include the Louisville Boys, High School, Walnut Hills High School and Shortridge High School. A constitution for a permanent tri-state league was drawn up and plans were made for a public triangular debate. In February the club held the election of ofhcers for the second semester. At this meeting James Tull was re-elected president, Charles Meade was elected vice president. Julia Parker secretary and Carl Koch treasurer. On February 14 the preliminary tryouts for the members of the two Walnut Hills High School dee hating teams were held in the Auditorium. Mr. Biltz tcaptainrl, Miss Parker, Mr. Meade, and Miss Koch talternateL were chosen the members of the negative team, and Mr. Koch tcaptainL Miss Guss. Mr. Tu , and Mr. Leibman talternateL the members of the affirmative team. On March I9 the negative team participated in a practice debate with West Night High School. The proposition discussed was, Resolved, That the Covenant of the League of Nations as adopted by the plenary session of the Inter-Allied Peace Conference should be adopted by the United States. The subject was ably debated by both teams. but the Walnut Hills team proved superior and carried off a glorious victory. The affirmative team held a practice debate with East Side High School on March 23, on the same subject. and again Walnut Hills High School was victorious, the vote of the judges being unanimous. On April 28, the clay after the triangular debate, the victorious affirmative team debated with the tie feated negative team, in the school auditorium, before the faculty and students. In this contest the negative team redeemed itself by winning the victory. At the meetings of the Debating Club various problems relating to the educational and political tife of our nation have been discussed. The training which the weekly debates afford in clear thinking and correct expresson is valuable to any pupil, and the Senior members of the club hope that succeeding classes will support the organization and keep the debating championship for Walnut Hills High School.

The proposition discussed was, Rcsaalved, That the Covenant of the League of Nations as adopted at the plenary session of the Inter-Allied Peace Conference he adopted by the United States. The negative team of Walnut Hills High School. consisting of Mr. Biltz tcaptainL Miss Parker, Mr. Meade, and Miss Koch taitemateL went to Louisville to debate with the affirmative team of Louis- viHe Boys. High School. The negative team of Louisville Boys, High School went to Indianapolis to debate with the affirmative team of Shortridge High School, and the negative team of Shortridge High School debated at Cincinnati with the affirmative team of Walnut Hills High School, which consisted of Koch tcaptairo, Miss Guss, Mr. Tull and Mr. Lcihman talternatel The affirmative team of each of the three schools was victorious and so the championship could not be awarded to any member of the League. The interest and enthusiasm which were aroused by the TrieState contest has established the Tri- State Debating League on a firm foundation, andhas inspired every student with an ambition to win the championship next year.

So many pupils applied for meme bership in the clubs that it was necessary to limit the membership to those whose average in school work was seventy-hve per cent or over. The Boys' Club elected Harry Elmore president; Vernon Venable. vice president; and Albert Mayer. secretary. The ofhcers of the Girls' Debating Club are. Betty Brown, president; Jean Small, vice president, and Florence Dalzell, secretaIy. The meetings of the clubs are held on Tuesday, the seventh period, every other week. Each member has an opportunity to take part in a formal debate. and many subjects of national and local importance are discussed at the meetings. In May a lively debate on the question of Military Train- ing was held between the Boys' and the Girls' club. The enthusiasm and ability which the members of the lower grades have manifested in the work of the debating societies give promise that in the future the proud record of Walnut Hills High School will be upheld.

At this meeting the election of officers Was held and Earl Mason was chosen president, Marie Wager. vicevpresident; Julia Parker, secretary; and Dutro Blocksan, treasurer. The members of the club made their first public appearance in Dicken's A Christmas Carol, as drama- tized by the pupils of the E and F grades. This flrst dramatic attempt was a great success, and the club readopted two French orphans With the proceeds from this entertainment. Early in March plans were made for the final play, and the members of the club agreed to present Sherwood, by Alfred Noyes, on May 14, for the benefit of The Remembranccr. The spirit of enthusiasm which has prevailed at the meetings of the Dramatic Club is indicative of the importance that the work of the organization has assumed in the new classical high school during. the past year. Every Junior and Senior student has come to realize the advantages of the opportunities for dramatic training offered to the members of the club.

Only the members of the school Were admitted at the first performance of the play, on Tuesday afternoon. but outsiders were invited to be present at the second performance, on Tuesday eve- ning. Both presentations were a great success, and the members of the club feel that the credit is largely due to Miss Lotze, who directed the play with such zealous efficiency. Several of the players exhibited marked ability. Robert Biltz, who interpreted the part of Ebenezer Scrooge, played so in character that the audience heaved a sigh of relief when in the last act Bob proved that the forbidding scowl which he had worn from the first was merely assumed and that he had not for- gotten how to smile. It would be impossible to describe the buoyant ring in the voice of Scrooge's nephew as he bounced into the counting house and shouted, A Merry Christmas, Uncle! God save you! Earl Mason played the role of Bob Cratchit. Scrooge's hard-working, long-suffering Clerk, 50 realistic. ally that the hearts of the spectators were filled with sympathy for the unfortunate Bob. VVhat a sensation of horror was produced when Herbert Fast. in ghost's attire, accompanied by weird sounds. entered Scroogeis bedroom and announced in a sepulchral Voice. uIl'i life I was your partner, Jacob Marley? The Spirit of Christmas Past, whose coming was foretold by Jacob Marley's ghost, was as beautiful as Marley,s ghost was weird. In a Howing white robe. with her black hair hanging in curls and bedecked with Christmas tinsel. Agnes Rutherford looked the part of the Christmas Angel whom she represented. All during the rollicking Fezziwig scene Mr. and Mrs. Fezziwig Uames Tull and Marie Wagea and their guests seemed to radiate joy and Christmas cheer. Walter Broker played the part of the Spirit of Christmas Present. and this spirit and Scrooge were the unseen guests at the home of Bob Cratchit. The scene in the Cratchit home was one of the best in the play. Katherine Hungarland was unusually good in the impersonation of the motherly Mrs. Cratchit. When the curtain rose on the scene in Scrooge's nephew's home. the latter was standing before the grate indulging in a long. hearty. mirthful laugh that tilled the audience with delight. Warren Fishback. who played the part of the nephew, starred in both the scenes in which he took part and convinced the audience that he possesses more than average amateur ability. Dorothy Ammerman. draped in a. black robe, played the part of the Spirit of Christmas Yet to Come. It would be hard to imagine a more gruesome impression than that which the silent spirit and the shrinking Scrooge presented as they glided across the stage toward Scrooge's tombstone, with the strains of a doletui funeral march issuing from behind the scenes. Of course the grand climax came in the last scene of the play in which Scrooge revealed the complete change in heart which the visit of the three spirits had wrought. At the request of Mr. Davis. the play was repeated on Wednesday morning, December 24, and on this occasion two Hasheiight pictures were taken of the cast. One of these appeared in the Times-Staf, on Wednesday, December 3 I . Altogether the members of the Dramatic Club are very much encourageti to feel that their first dra- matic attempt was successful.

Biltz Sixty-One Ghv Grazia in Ehuratinn BY JULIA PARKER N these days of turbulent unrest, when problems of paramount importance, some of them of purelyr national consideration and others of world-wide interest. confront the nation, there is an ever-increasing need for broad-minclecl deep-thinking Americans. Our nation must look to the girls and boys of today for the statesmen and leaders of tomorrow. In Yeung America lies the safety of our democracy. It is your duty, therefore, and your sacred privilege, you who are the men and women of today, to Amer- icanize the schools and give to us, Who are the men and women of the future, a strong foundation for citizenship. Before the Great War Germany was the acknowledged educational leader of the world. German schools were considered so highly efficient that they formed the pattern which the rest of the nations; our own country included, strove to copy. Unquesticnahly the Prussians were an educated people; but it was this very education, this German likultur which caused the ultimate downfall of the German Empire. No people, however well versed in book lore, however prolicient in the sciences, can maintain a world dominance unless they have a. deep and abiding respect for justice and honor, and these are vir- tues about which the Germans knew little and carerl less. All the hideous atrocities connected with the devastation of France and Belgium are the direct result of German education and German lack of prin- ciple. Barbarism is atrocious, but barbaria-m controllecl and directed by eduction and modern science is heinous. Heaven forbid that the time will eVer come when America will again emulate an educational sys- tem which turns men into brutes! It is our duty now to eliminate from our schools any trace of a system which is contrary to the ideals and the needs of a. democracy. Let our motto be, uOne-hunclrecl-per-cent Americanism! The schools are the melting pot in which the heterogenous masses of our youth are Welded into a united band of staunch Americans. Brotherhood and honor are the most important factors in a young American's education: book learning, though important, is by comparison a minor consideration. With the single exception of the home there is no influence so far reaching and so vital to the safety of our nation as the public school. America has had a great past because her educational system has been great, and the glory of her future will be equal to the efficiency of her schools. If we wish our girls and boys to be true to the American principles which their forefathers have so revered and which have been the very foundation of our democracy, we must make sure that their education is entrusted only to men and women of the highest American icieals and of the truest culture. In the past many of our most illustrious Ameri2an5 have been teachers. The schools have been leavenecl from top to bottom with the very Finest talent that our country could produce. Undoubtedly the stimulus of this representative Americanism in our schools has played a large part in maintaining an educational system which has helped to keep America safe for democracy. The spirit of the old adage. Like father, like son, might just as appropriately be interpreted, Like teacher. like pupil: It is true that our schools have always attracted American teachers of unusual ability; 50 likewise is it true that our schools have always produced citizens of unusual ability. And now at this crisis in our national history we must not, we dare not, lower the standard of Americanism either for our teachers or for our citizens. Sixiy-Two There has never been a period when the need for intelligent, patriotic citizens has been more keenly felt than at the present time. Momentous questions that affect the very life of our Republic, that pertain to the welfare of the whole world, indeed. are confronting our nation today. Many of these prob- lems must be solved by the rising generation; they must literally be solved in the classroom. The future greatness of America depends largely upon the ability of the youth of the nation to shoulder the tremencious responsibilities which will be handed down to them from the men and women of today. It will be the duty of the rising generation to clecide whether the dream of a League of Nations shall become an established fact; theirs it will be to determine whether the right of equal opporv tunities shall be guaranteed to all men regardless of race; theirs it will be also to solve the perplexing in! dustrial problems which are so vital to the national welfare. Iteclevolves upon you, the men and women of today, to see to it that when the time comes for the boys and girls to assume the sacred obligations of citizenship they will he found ready and capable. The danger which now threatens our demorcracy is very real and very near. Earnest men everywhere are becoming cognizant of the fact that the efhciency of the American schools is imperiled. and a note of alarm is being sounded throughout the landl An appalling condition confronts us. Statistics show that there is today a shortage of not less than 75,000 teachers in the public schools of the United States, and that there are l00.000 sehool-rooms Hpresicled over by teachers who Cannot qualify as. teachers in their respective states.,' The Stream ofieHicient teachers who from sheer necessity are leaving the schools to seek positions in the commercial world, is increasing from clay to day, and from hour to hour; and with the Withdrawal of each teacher the foundation of Civilization becomes more unstable. In a recent issue of a popular patriotic magazine there is a picture which repIesents the American nation as being upheld by four pillars, the Church. the State, Commerce and the Schools. It represents the school column as tottering, and the nation, thus deprived of one of its main supports. a5 beginning to crumble. This symbolic picture is prophetic of a catastrophe which even now imminently threatens the nation. God grant that the intelligence and patriotism of the American people may forestall the impending disaster. American citizens, the demoralization of our schools could mean nothing less than the immediate low- ering of our national standard and the ultimate ruin of democracy. If you are not willing to tolerate Bolshevism, Prussianism and all that is despicable and un-American, We, the youth of the nation charge you, for your own sake, for our sake, for the sake of posterity, to safe guard the efficiency of the schools. the most impqrtant of all American institutions. The crisis has Come, and we must rally to the cause. Our boys have fought and died in France to make the world safe for democracy. It is our duty now to complete their work and keep the world safe for democracy. We, the children of America, are Democracyis clearest possession. Cherish us, and the future of Democracy is assured. When you give the nation into our keeping let it be the same glorious republic which was your heritage from preceding generations. in order that we may bequeath it to our children unot only not less, but better, more beautiful than it was transmitted to us.

Nun Ollaaairal thigh Svrhnnl AtLNUT HILLS HIGH SCHOOL has been set apart by the Union Board of High Schools to concentrate its efforts to the end that it may offer a broad and thorough training, placing special em- phasis on intellectual development and scholarship. Its distinctive function is to train future leaders in public and professional life by preparing them ade- quately for entrance to the best of the Liberal Arts Colleges. Universities, Schools of Technology, and Engineering Schools in the country. In the words of Dr. Randall J. Condon: The aim is to build up and maintain here in Cincinnati a public high school that shall be of a kind and equally as good as any of the private college preparatory schools or academies cf the East, so that it shall be unnecessary for any parent to send a boy or girl away from Cincinnati to obtain the kind of education that shall be best adapted to his special needs, and especially to demonstrate that no private high school can surpass a public high school in intensive college preparation along literal and classical lines, With history, mathematics and the sciences taught equally. well, and with music, art. physical education and home-making, for both boys and girls, taught as an essential part of their education, whether they are going to college or not. The school has extended its work downward two years to make adequate preparation for the exact- ing entrance requirements of some of the leading universities and to give enriched opportunities to an who aim to continue their education in any higher institution or who wish a broad, cultural training as a preparation for life. Thus a six-year continuous course is offered to those who have completed the sixth grade, while to those who have completed the seventh grade, there is offered a distinct hve-year course, in which the essen- tials of the elementary schooi course ate covered and some of the work ordinarily reserved for high school is taken up. The advantages of these extended courses cannot be urged too strongly. The earleir development of certain strong mental traits by the administration and the organization of the material and the methods of presenting the subjezts of study is made possible. The spirit and atmosphere of the school broaden the interests and stimulate through their powerful appeal young people in the first years of adolescence the natural period of readjustment. In the first years great emphasis is placed on teaching the pupils ham to study, as this is indispensable to the best progress later in the course. There is constant instruction and practice in the methods of study under careful superhsion. Many of the most important men in the educational world are advocating the project which has keen undertaken in Walnut Hills High School. The following two letters, the first from Frederick S. Sixiy-Six Jonesa Dean of Yale College. and the second from Andrew F West. Dean of the Graduate School of Princeton University, are proof of the attention which Walnut Hills High School has received from some of the foremost educators in the country since the introduction of the classical course: New Haven, Connecticut. April 9, 1920. Mr. Robert L. Biltz, Editor The Remembrance: Walnut Hills High School. My Dear Mr. Biltz: Please extend my congratulations to the members of the first class to graduate in the new six-year Classical course recently established at the Walnut Hills High School. It was my privilege to be the guest of the schuul last January, and l was deeply interested in the somewhat novel experiment of a school on the lines of the Walnut Hills, the first, I believe, to be or- ganized in the West. Precedent for such an institution we find in the famous Boston Latin School and some other ancient establishments, but I think it significant that a strictly classical school with u six-year course should he established in the progressive Western City of Cincinnati. In the midst of clamcr for Hvocaticmal training and for Hpractical education, it is reassuring to know that the traditional ideas of the fathers are not to he abandoned entirely. and those of us who are in- terested in broad education as well as in special training, will watch the progress of the Walnut Hills High School with the confidence that it will fully justify its establishment. Very truly yours, FREDERICK S. JONES. Princeton, N. J. April 8, 1920. Mr. Rehert L. Biltz. Walnut Hills High School. Cincinnati, Ohio. Dear Mr. Biltz: In reply to your invitation in behalf of the students of the first graduating class of the new leeyear classical high school of Cincinnati, I take great pleasure in sending my warmest and heartiest congratu- lations, together with a statement as to the value of a classical high school. The best kind of a general education is that which trains the mind to its highest all-round excellence. In such an education every student should be trainei in the studies which are fundamental to a knowing of the best in our civilization. He should know something of mathematics and science in order to under- stand the universe in which we live. He should know something of history in order to understand the record which mankind has made, and especially should he know the history of our own country and also the history of the Greeks and Romans, who laid the foundations of society and law and civilized gov- ernment for us. He also ought to know our own national language well if he is to use English clearly as an insturment of thought. He shoulcl also know Latin and Greek, or at least Latin. as fundamental to the best knowledge of English and also of the Modern Languages, and as a great help toward saying what he thinks in the best way. The boys and girls thus trained will regularly surpass those who are not so preparedi Trained thus they will do better in public life or in busmess life, or in any other calling they may have to follow. With best regards, Very sincerely yours, ANDREW F WEST. Sixty-Seven STUDENT COUNCIL Walter Broker. President Melville Timm, First Vice President Charles Meade.

Its membership comprises two pupils from every room and the othcers of the four upper grades. Through the Stuc-tentACtjuncil the pupils of the school are given a chance to express their opinions on. all Ischool matters of v1tal Interest to them, and to co-operate with the faculty in eliminating conditions which tend to degrade the standards of the school. One important achievement of the Council was the correction of undesirable conditions in the lunch room. We now have in running order an up-to-date cafeteria which is a decided improvement over the 01d method of serving. Walnut Hills High School has entertained many distinguished visitors during the past year, and in order to keep a record of the eminent guests who have been entertained by the school, the Student Coun- cil has purchased a guest book in which the names of visitors may be registered. Likewise, the Council has taken measures to replace the old Hags which for many years have hung in the school auditorium. The Council devised a plan by which perfect order might be maintained in the halls, and it ap- pointed Trafhc Squads to act as traffic police while classes are passing. Committees for the improvement of school morals were appointed by the Council, one for the boys and one for the girls. It is the duty of these committees to correct or report any irregularities of conduct which may he observed among the students. Through the Student Council a service Hag. bearing both blue and gold stars, in memory of the grad- uates of Walnut Hills High School who served in the World War, and a bronze memorial tablet in honor of those students who lost their lives in the Great War.

I919. many girls, both of the upper and of the lower grades, assembled in the school auditorium to reorganize the Girls' Glee Club of Walnut Hills High School, uncter the direction of Mr. Fisher. The members of the club applied themselves diligently to the mastery of the rudiments of choral singing, and they have found pleasure as well as proht in attending the weekly meetings of the society. The Glee Club has undertaken the study of several dithcult compositions such as, HDarkey's Lul- laby, from Dvorakgs Humeresque; Silent Nowf, from OEenbach's Barcarole, and HNlerry June, by Dr. Vincent. In May, I920, the club gave a public performance before the faculty and students of the school. The Glee Club has proved of interest to many music lovers, and has grown indispensable to the musical life of Walnut Hills High School.

Fishback Henn Koch Lane Mason F OOTBALL TEAM McGehan Ornelas Pichel Sullivan Tull Young Zimmerman Seveniy-Six ESPITE many disappointments and numerou: handicaps. the students of Walnut Hills High School produced a football team this year. The biggest disappointment was the loss of much good mate- rial when the commercial pupils Were forced to leave the school after the adoption of the six-year classical course and the discontinuation of the commercial course. Even with this discouragement the fellows did not lose heart, but worked just that much harder to produce a winning team. Under the able instruction of their captain, Earl Mason, the boys practiced in the afternoon, and were taught tackling, punting, scrimmage, line plunging and signal work. The boys experienced some rough work and showed their pluck and spirit by sticking it out, even when there were no spectators to Watch and sympathize, and with a scorching sun pouring down upon their heads. Mason proved to be an efficient captain, and gave his players no work that he would not do himself. After weeks of practice and preparation, the fellows were given an opportunity to show the benefit of their training. In the interschoiastic games, inspired by the cheers given by the Rooters' Club, the boys constantly manifested a hghting spirit which showed the other teams that Walnut Hills High is very much alive. In the Hughes, game. Mason astonished and delighted the Walnut Hillites by a spectacular run of eighty-five yards for a touch down. Considering the inexperience of many of the players, the team did very well this year, The main trouble was a lack of substitutes, and this proved to he a serious drawback. As the saying is, iiA team is as strong as its substitutes.ll Throughout the season the team played consistent hall and gave their best efforts in behalf of the school. To show the appreciation of the school for their services, Mr. Henshaw gave the boys a banquet, which they enjoyed immensely. The Senior Class of 1920 sincerely hope that next year, under the instructicn of Dr. Koch and Earl Mason. Walnut Hills High School will produce a team that will fight its way through to victory. no matter how strong the opposition.

Gym Team of I920 was organized Friday, January 12, by the remaining members of last yearys team. James Tull was elected captain, and Earl Mason manager. The examination for team mem- bership was held January 19 and 23, and consisted of the following exercises: The roll. umiddle kip, ushoulder stand, and the Herici kip on the parallel bars; also the ukip, iishoot, nfront and rear pull-up,H Hunderswingf' 0n the horizontal bar, and urope climbing. The candidates were required to attain an average of seventy per cent to pass. The purpose of this examination was to test the ability of the candidates in performing on gymnasium apparatus. A total number of thirty-four boys passed the examina- tion and were enrolled as members of the Gym Team. The team boys at once began to practice on the apparatus and continued their training throughout the winter ahd the spring. The boys, remembering the old proverb, HPractice makes perfect, practiced faithfully three days out of each Week. The boys not infrequently Went home in the afternoon tired and aching in every muscle, with blisters upon their hands. However. like true representatives of Walnut Hills High School, they made no objections and reaped the beneht of real muscular work. Doctor Knoch. the Coach. was untiring in his efforts, and full credit should be given to him for the splendid way in which he trained the team for Gym Exhibition. The Exhibition, which was held in the auditorium of the school, April 8. was a great success. and the boys who took part felt amply repaid for the strenuous efforts which they put forth in their training. The spectators were amazed and delighteri by the wonderful feats perfcrmed by the local gymnasts, and were loud in their praise of Doctor Knoch. James Tull, the captain, deserves praise for the manner in which he trained the less skillful members of the team. Little Edwin Hall, of the D grade, should be commended. for he is the smallest member of the team, and at the same time one of the best gymnasts in the school. The work of the team was unusually good this year. and the whole school is proud of its gymnasts. ani hopes that future Walnut Hills High gym teams will keep up the high standard of the school in gymnastics. Eighty-Onc TRACK TEAM Broker Biltz Blocksom, D. F ishback Green Hubbard Koch Minor Mason Rosin Schroeder Tull Zimmerman Eighiy-Twa 5aLNUT HILLS HIGH SCHOOL is indeed fortunate this year to have such a fine bunch of ath- etes to represent her on the track. Almost over night the boys have organized themselves into a very presentable ancl formidable team, which is expected to iThring home the bacon this year. The Erst opportunity to show the strength of the team came on Friday. March 6. I920, when the Young Men's Christian Association held a track meet at the Armory. All the local high schools partici- pated. The Walnut Hills High Track Team won second place with thirteen points, which was a very good showing. considering the newness and lack of training of the athletes. The track fellows are now undergoing a course of hard training. They practice faithfully every after noon at Carson Field under the watchful care of Doctor Knoch, who advises them how to receive the best results from their work. The Coach, Doctor Knoch, has made a careful study of each boy on the team, and knows for what event each fellow is particularly fitted. He tells the athletes how they may develop their speed and endurance, and all their best physical qualities, and in addition gives them set- ting up exercisesf! which especially prepare them for their several events. The Coach is a thorough trainer, and believes an athlete is hmade, not born. By his custom of putting heart and soul into his Work, he has created an infectious, indomitable spirit, and the fellows are glad to Ghey his Valuable instrqu tions. This is the reason for the success of the team; co-operation and team work, combined with a plucky and willing spirit of mutual helpfulness. Under such expert instruction the boys are straining every muscle to Hget in trim for the big athletic events that are ccming. Two preliminary, but yet important, meets are to be staged May 15 and 21, re- spectively, before the acid test comes, viZ., the Tri-State Meet. to he held at Carson Field on May 28, 1920. On this date a silver cup is to be presented to the winning high-school team, and it Will be a great day for all. The First of the preliminary events will be held at Oxford, Ohio, and the latter will be held at Carson Field, where the four rival high schools of Cincinnati will battle for the city championship. Well, boys, you will soon have a chance to exhibit your skill, and speed and endurance on the track, and the pupils of the school give you their heartiest support and best wishes for one of the most successful seasons in the history of Walnut Hills High School.

Hinsch Hubbard Koch Mason Omelas Young Eighty-Faur HE Baseball Team formed in Walnut Hills High Sehol in 1920 inherited the enthusiasm and school. spirit characteristic of former Walnut Hills High School baseball teams. The spirit which, in past' years. led our teams to victory was again exhibited Ey our local athletes, that of loyalty to their Alma Mater. Intense interest in the welfare of the school led every player to contribute his best efforts to estab- lish for Walnut Hills High School, a new record in baseball The captain, Warren Fishback, and the manager, Earl Mason, deaerve much praise for their tireless efforts in forming the team. It is no easy task to manage a baseball team and have each player work in harmony with the rest. The -managers realized that a good player must be obedient and unselfish, and these two virtues were admirably developed in each player. Skillfully prescribed training on the baseball Held soon established a creditable baseball team in Walnut Hills High School. Although handicapped because of the fact that it did not have 21 held of its own on which to practice, the team turned out to he well balanced. full of 'Tpep and possessed of an inexhaustible fighting spirit. This spirit was shown in every game played by the team. The valiant spirit of our athletes was proclaimed by loyal rooters who lined the edge of the diamond and furnished the incentive that caused every player to do his best, whether at hat or in the held. The support of these loyal routers greatly strengthened the morale of the team. Although the members of the team may never be similarly associated in the future, they can never forget the good times they have had in gcod old Walnut Hills. Time and memory will awaken in them a just pride when they remember the school for which we- all yen: Shul-arac-arac-ashul! Shul-arac-arac-ashul! Who rule? We rule! Walnut Hills High School!
