These men are recognized as being public-spirited men of ability. The interests of all concerned are considered by these men in their deliberations. That they have given us good management and efficiency cannot be denied. Our school is recognized by many outsiders as being a fine school. It is not uncommon to learn of some family that has moved here because they have been dissatisfied elsewhere and they have heard well of our district. This speaks well for our board, superintendent, and entire school. The public, generally, is hardly conscious of the fact that these fine men give the community their time and thought, without financial remuneration, because of their interest in the youth of the community. That thoughtful people appreciate this service is undoubted, though many people overlook the fact. Page Eight • • • I I!liltII ABOUT out Mriiimnum W. E. SHADE, B.S. in E., M.A. Ohio State University West Carrollton is proud to have as her superintendent of schools Walter Shade, a native son, a man who made good in his teaching and administrative work elsewhere, and who now shares his talents with us. The esteem with which he is held by educational circles is evidenced by his membership and active participation in numerous educational committees and groups. Not only is Mr. Shade interested in the smooth functioning of the school organization itself, but he is interested in counseling with boys and girls, assisting them in whatever way possible—in securing employment or in furthering their educational plans. Besides this, Mr. Shade’s interests extend to the general community in its various projects, problems, and interests. His favorite relaxation is generally known to be retreating to fishing realms. Illli NtlNCIPAL... A F KIP II AIII COUNSEL HR HARRY A. RUSSELL Ohio State University Richmond University We are happy to have as our principal Harry Russell, a native Virginian, w'ho for the several years he has been with us has brought us a touch of the traditional Southern chivalry. Students have found in him a friend and counselor, ready to help in the solution of their problems. Numerous details of school work are quietly and efficiently directed by Mr. Russell. Mr. Russell rendered service to his country in the days of the World War, is an active Legionnaire, and has numerous community and educational interests and affiliations. Quiet, dignified, he has endeared himself to teachers and students alike. Fishing, hunting and gardening are all among his avocational activities.

Our class was the largest first grade this far in the history of West Carrollton School, thus creating a new problem for the teachers. This large class was divided into three sections under the guidance of Miss De Ford, Miss Shepherd, and Miss Bonnereau. The first four years were the most impressive of our entire schooling, for here we learned the fundamental principles which we were to apply in the coming years. Our teachers were as follows: Second Grade—Miss Stocker and Miss Martz. Third Grade—Miss Anderson and Miss Shaffer. Fourth Grade—Miss Dcoblc and Miss Beal. Now we have entered the fifth grade, and for the first time we had more than one-teacher. This year we thoroughly enjoyed, for it was so different from the preceding four. At last we have reached the half-way mark—the sixth grade. This was a very important year, for we were looking forward to the sixth grade commencement. There were eighty-two pupils promoted to the seventh grade. These two years we were under the supervision of Mr. Cavender, Mrs. Stoughton, Miss Coryell, and Miss Rauch. The seventh and eighth grades passed quickly for we were eagerly awaiting to enter Senior High School. The teachers for these two years were: Seventh Grade—Miss Davis and Mr. Kerns. Fighth Grade—Miss Woodman and Mr. Kerns. Then came the Freshman year, hence many new experiences; first the election of class officers and then the problem of earning money for the forthcoming events. This year was a very promising year and the future looked bright. Also, it gave us an idea of what the next three years were to be like. T he home-room teachers for this year were Miss Woodman and Mr. Kerns. In the Sophomore year new interests came to us. The girls were allowed to join the Girl Reserve Club, and the boys Hi-Y. We found these clubs very interesting and beneficial. And so ended another year of our school life. Our advisers were Miss Woodman and Mr. Hartline. Junior Year—The outstanding event of this year was the Junior and Senior Reception, which proved highly successful. Our Junior play, The Marlenhurg Necklace”, was given under the direction of Mr. Brown, our adviser for the year. Our eleventh year then came to an end. Senior Year—The previous three years of high school advanced very fast and now we are Seniors. We have selected our announcements and name cards, also completed the task of having our pictures taken. The Senior class play, Along Came Peggy”, was given on March 31, under the direction of Miss Marsh. Although we have lost many of our fellow students along the way, yet several new members have joined us from other schools. We find, in this the last year of our high school, thirty-three remaining out of the one-hundred-four that started in 1927. They are: Lorraine Anderson, Phyllis Bailey, Anita Branner, Zelma Baker, Alberta Ellis, Zola Hinkson, Dawn Loesch, Eleanor Schuder, Freda Stewart, Glenna Taylor, Norma Tucker, Eva W illis, Geneva Wilson, Una White, Doris Zink, Arthur Chamberlain, Tom Eckley, Joe Flory, Nathan Gephart, Herbert Greggcrson, Norman Hartzell, Joe Himebaugh, Ned Himehaugh, George Hoffman, Jack Hupman, James Hupman, William Johnson, James Kingery, Junior Moses, Bob Shell, Richard Mor-ter, Walter Vastbinder, and Wallace Wickline.

The class of 1940 started life in school under the guidance of Miss Pease and Miss Anstette as first grade teachers. The second year found us with Miss Martz and Miss Boling. In the third year under the guidance of Miss Schaffer and Miss Anderson, a bird club was started which continued throughout the fourth grade with Miss Beal and Miss Doeble as teachers. Upon entering the fifth grade we found a new interest in school life, this being the first year we had ever had more than one teacher, and the chance to change classes. The sixth year was climaxed by graduation. At this time seventy-five pupils received diplomas. Next came the glory and excitement of becoming Junior High School students with parties, hikes, and other events. The eighth grade found us entering the band, and also starting a Junior Girl Reserve Club under the direction of Miss Vogelsang. Then came high school with a new idea for dividing the class. The boys started with Mr. Stockton and the girls with Miss Small. This arrangement continued through the Sophomore and Junior years. The Junior year brought all the fun of planning a reception and attending the other school events. At the end of our Junior year we find the enrollment reduced to fifty-five pupils. The fifty-five all look forward with hope for great achievements in the future.

Looking back over the past ten years of the Sophomore Class, one will find many V pleasant memories. The first four years made us accustomed to the ever active school life. During these years many lasting friendships were formed. In the fifth and sixth grades, the idea of having more than one teacher was pleasing to all. 1 he sixth proved to be one of our most eventful years. During the entire year, commencement was foremost in everyone’s mind. On that important day fifty-eight pupils received diplomas. Upon entering the seventh and eighth grades, the girls were given the opportunity to join the Junior Girl Reserves. Also, we found many new and interesting subjects on our schedules. The Freshman year is remembered as our first attempt to earn money. The class sold magic slates. The boys and girls had separate homerooms. Miss Arnold was the adviser for the girls, and Mr. Stephenson was adviser for the boys. The present Sophomore year has proved itself as being one of our most successful years. Many of our students have added to the high standards of our class by taking part in athletic, musical, and scholastic activities. Our class has worked very hard this year to earn money for future years.

In the fourth grade Miss Beal supervised a hike which none of us have forgotten. Facing the fifth and sixth years we felt quite grown up and most of our activities were concerned with the coming graduation into Jr. High. In all our glory we received our diplomas and Reva Oliver delivered the valedictory. Then we left Mr. Cavender whose guidance we had been under. The following seventh and eighth grades proved that we were growing up. Miss Slahaugh was our adviser both years and we were becoming used to the changing of classes. We elected our first class officers and organized a Student Council under the leadership of Miss Eck. Many received letters for Band and Orchestra work, and the ten highest ratings were given to those participating in the State Board Exams. Now we have entered our first vear of high school. For the first time the hoys and girls have taken separate rooms. We were offered a wider selection of subjects and most of us have fared well. We are preparing our treasury for future years by selling soft drinks, candy, and hot dogs during the baseball season. We hope to continue our steady progress and are looking forward to the three remaining years at West Carrollton.—Lurline Thiel man, Mary Jean Blackburn.

The I! 11II Our band, under the direction of Mr. Charles West, has improved considerably within the last year. It has also grown tremendously, now numbering 85, being made up of people ranging from the fifth grade to Seniors. Two weeks before school started we began practicing for the football season. We marched at all the home games and also at some of the games away from home, with Mary Jean Case and Janet Beedle as Drum Majors. I he hand played for most of the basketball home games and went to the District Tournament with the team. It traveled to Miami University to take part in the District Music Contest, and received a rating of 1. During the last year the band became organized and elected officers. They are as follows: President, Joe Himebaugh; Vice-President, Ned Himebaugh; Secretary, Gertie Ross; Treasurer, Ruth Christman. At the time of this writing, the band is preparing for its Spring Concert which is being held May 4. Our concert master is to be Joe Himebaugh, with Mr. Don Bassett as the guest conductor and Mr. Paul Blagg as the guest soloist.—Mary Jean Case.

Before a West Carrollton High School Orchestra was known, there was a town orchestra, consisting of towns-people. This orchestra had its start in 1913, and performed at all the school affairs where an orchestra was needed. Then in 1920 the first school orchestra was organized under Raymond Shade. This orchestra consisted of fourteen members. The first music ever used for marching was played by a small school orchestra under the direction of Mr. Miller, in 1927. Under Charles Patterson, the orchestra really was started on its way. The orchestra has greatly assisted in the production of the following operettas: 1935, W indmills of Holland; 1936, 'Ro$e of the Danube ; 1937, Jerry of Jericho Road ; 1938, Pinafore ; 1939, Count and the Coed. Also a Junior High operetta, f'The Magi's Gift,” was accompanied by members of the orchestra, in 1939. After playing for the Junior Class play, the orchestra played in the District Contest at Oxford, with a total number of 60 members. There it won first place, with a rating of Superior. Then it journeyed to Columbus to the State Contest, where under Mr. Charles Vf'est's excellent leadership, the W;est Carrollton High School Orchestra won second place. This rating entitled the orchestra to enter the National Regional Contest, May 18, 1939, as one of the representatives from Ohio. 1939, the most eventful season of the orchestra’s history, was climaxed by its appearance in the Spring Festival produced by the Music department. The orchestra makes its final appearance at the Sixth Grade and High School Commencements.—Leola Haines.

That was in 1933. Now, these same people arc in high school. They have taken part in five operettas — Windmills of Holland,” Rose of the Danube,” Jerry of Jericho Road,” Pinafore,” and The Count and the Co-Ed.” Each year they have entered Sectional Music Contests. In 1936 and 1937 the girls took part in the contests at Miami and Greenville. Both times their efforts were rewarded with a rating of Excellent. In 1938 a mixed chorus was sent to Wittenberg. I hey won the Sectional Contest and entered in the State Contest .Here, also, they received a rating of Excellent. This year a mixed chorus was sent to Miami. A rating of Excellent was received there too. Besides the annual operetta and contests, the chorus sings at the Spring Music Festival and at the Baccalaureate.

Its purpose is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. During the school year the Hi-Y Club has sponsored many activities. They have sponsored picture shows every other Monday evening; they gave baskets at Thanksgiving and Christmas to needy families in West Carrollton. The club also furnished the fine picture on ’'The History of Baseball” that was shown at a free assembly. The picture was to encourage more people to play and enjoy base ball. A temperance assembly was given at which time Rev. Cassel gave a wonderful address on High Standards of Christian Character. The officers of the club for the year were: Paul Harp, President; Joe Flory, Vice President; Howard Thomas, Secretary; Richard Trubee, Treasurer; Mr. MaWhinney, Adviser. The Girl Reserve Club is sponsored by the Y. W. C. A. This club has many high ideals. The purpose of the club is to improve the character of each member. This year, we have 45 members ranging from sophomores to seniors. We met every other Monday night. After our business meeting, we always have a splendid program; sometimes a guest speaker. We also have had many social activities. We have had two dances, a Scavenger hunt, an Athletic Banquet, and the Senior Farewell. All were immensely enjoyed. In our social Service work, we distributed baskets of groceries at Christmas and Thanksgiving to the needy families. The officers are as follows: President, Norma Tucker; Vice President, Dorothy Tufts; Secretary, Mary Jean Case; Treasurer, Phyllis Bailey; Adviser, Miss Ruth Woodman. MARY JEAN CASE. The Better Business Workers Club has been under the leadership of the following Officers for the past year: President William Johnson Secretary Una White Vice President Glenna Taylor Treasurer............. Betty Smith Members of the Better Business Workers Club have a meeting once every two weeks at which there are speakers who familarize the Club members with the business world. The Club opened the yearly schedule with a picnic which was held at the Germantown Dam. Some meetings of interest are mentioned below: Mr. Million, of the Coco Cola Co., showed us a Vocational Moving Picture with respect to finding a job. The high school pupils were guests at this assembly. Mr. Harold Blout gave an illustrated talk on the Burroughs New Electric Fanfold Machine and the Electric Duplex Calculator. Miss Winifred Tarvin, an Alumna of the Club, gave a talk about her experience as a student at Miami Jacobs Business College. One of the most interesting events of the year was when we journeyed to Fairmont High School to see the World’s Champion typist, Albert Tangora, whose typing rate is 141 words per minute. At the last meeting we had as our speaker Miss Belle Potteiger from the Personnel Office, Frigidaire Div., General Motors Corp., who gave us the highlights of an office career. At the time of this writing we are looking forward to our second meeting in April which will be an illustrated lecture given by Reverend Cassel.

In order to be eligible for election to this society, pupils must rank in the first third of their respective classes. From this group elections are made on the basis of leadership, character, and service. Not more than fifteen per cent of any one class may be elected. At a high school assembly on April 12, these nine seniors were formally inducted into this society. Warren Snyder, president of the alumni organization, presided. On April 28 the newly elected members and the faculty council were entertained by the alumni group. This club was organized two years ago by the students who had participated in the Senior Scholarship Test or the District-State Scholarship test. The purpose of the club is to promote better scholarship throughout the school, and to recognize achievement in the academic field. The club sponsors a Stunt Night program each year to finance its activities and to give students of the grades and high school an opportunity to display publicly those special talents not usually included in a school program.

Second Row—George Hoffman, manager, Robert Shell, Bill Apple, Frank Scarborough, Richard Trubec, Joe Flory, Coach Robert Colburn. A very full basketball schedule, plus a fine, courageous ball club, was responsible for a splendid season this year. Winning 13 out of 18 games and the Little Six Trophy for the second time in succession is no easy job. Only 2 games were lost to schools in our own class, and the other 3 to class A schools. Those are the accomplishments of this year’s team. The team started the season in high style by heating Dixie easily, only to be trounced on by Roosevelt. This must have really given our boys the fighting spirit, for the following week they beat Jefferson by the highest score of the year, 42 to 30. Then they practically performed a miracle by holding Centerville to 8 points while they went on to gather 29. Centerville made but two field goals the whole game and both of those were long shots from the middle of the floor—a great victory for their defense work. A short time later our old rivals, Miamisburg, came here to play us and w'cnt home badly beaten by the score of 33 to 17. Having the two high score men of the League on our team was a big advantage. Howard Thomas with 188 points and his brother Vernon Thomas, with 157 points Puge Thirty-four ' ' ' ' for 18 games, were the two men who headed the League. Together they made 34$ points and averaged 19 points a game. Those on our squad to make the “Little Six” team were: Howard Thomas, Vernon Thomas; Nate Gephart made second team. Nate was badly missed about the end of the season when he was laid up with an injured ankle. Even though Nate never scored very much, his man scored even less. Nate always received the job of guarding the high score man, so you can easily see why he made such a good Captain. When we were given the privilege to play Waterloo at the Coliseum, we didn't believe it possible to win. The Waterloo Wonders were really “Wonders,” or at least the experts of basketball said they were. The boys on the Pirate’s team thought differently and went out to prove it by a score of 37 to 30 in our favor. They showed their fighting spirit by coming from behind to win comparatively easy. The team went to the tournament with plenty of high hopes and it certainly looked as though their hopes were going to come true. The boys took Covington in easy style by a score of 31 to 18, but when they went to play the second game some of the players had a touch of the “flu,” and they couldn’t seem to get started. ReesviUe won the game 27 to 9 and went on to the State. The Reserves also gave a very good account of themselves by winning 11 out of 16 games, and according to our way of looking at it they will have a very successful season next year. The Seniors wish good luck to the team of ’39 and ’40. We bid the Seniors farewell and hope they have as much success in attaining their goal in life as they have had the past season in making baskets for their ''Alma Mater.” The team of ’38 and ’39 out-scored its opponents $92 to 491.

The team's great disadvantage was the below-average weight of the line. It very seldom averaged over 145 lbs. but even with this disadvantage the boys would turn out for practice every night of the week and put in a lot of hard work. The main reason for which we can be proud of them is the fact that they kept up the fighting spirit traditional of the Pirates. The boys had some tough breaks from the beginning of the season. For instance, one of the senior boys on whom all of us relied was counted ineligible because of his age, and another senior had a bad injury with which to begin the season. Two of the seniors made the Little Six Squad: Bill Johnson making first string and Joe Flory making second string. The seniors whom the school will lose this year are as follows: Joe Flory, John Jonas, Bill Johnson, George Hoffman, Wallace Wickline, Stewart Wickline, and Paul J. Harp. The captain of the squad for the year '38 was Joe Flory. At the beginning of the season the team was weak on hitting and experience. After losing three games in a row they came back to win three, putting them into fourth place. This improvement is believed by the coaches to be caused by the increase in hitting, more experience, and the better pitching, which in turn is due to better weather. The Southwestern League to which we belong provides very stiff competition. All the other teams are of class A” schools, and many of these boys play on teams all summer. The outlook for next year is very good since there will be only four seniors leaving the team. The seniors are as follows: Bill Johnson, pitcher; Joe Flory, second base; Bill Bowden and Stewart Wickline, outfield. The batting averages for the first six games are: Same AB H R Pet. J.

The plot centered around the renting of an apartment belonging to Harold Bailey while he was out of town for a few' weeks. When he unexpectedly returns and finds his apartment rented to Leola Haines, a girl who was at one time his fiancee, he almost fires the butler and maid (Tom Eckley and Edith Callahan) because of what they had done. His present fiancee (Phyllis Bailey) and his aunt (Loretta Fisk) also walk in on the situation. His aunt threatens to disinherit him and his fiancee breaks their engagement. Each summer for the past two years he has gone mad over girls: first Leola, and then a Coney Island girl (Zelma Baker). Finally all is is patched up and straightened out by a prospective tenant (Eva Willis), and they all live happily ever after. The play was a great success. On November 18th the Junior Class presented Early to Bed, Early to Rise, the story of a delightful, if not altogether sane, family, whose destiny was controlled by its youngest member, 11-year-old Patsy. The part of Patsy was admirably played by Betty Furnas. Boh Barringer was very convincing as her absent-minded father who was the source of constant irritation to his practical sister and housekeeper Aunt Abbie (Mary Jean Case). Other sources of irritation to Aunt Abbie were her gangling nephew'. Junior Seekamp; the lady in pursuit of him, Lavonne Huden; the keeper of the pet store, Dudley Watkins; and the irate landlord, Russell Manning; and last, but not least, the southern beauty, Irene Linville, who threatened the happiness of Marion (Martha Gephart), the one sane member of the family. Patsy’s own destiny is controlled by two outside forces—Martha’s boss, Jack Cowden, and a young woman reporter, Dorothy Hartzell, to say nothing—of an altogether adorable, if not appreciated, skunk, named Violet. The play was ably directed by Miss Delphine Small.

Bob Shell says the only thing he’s leaving here is Marjorie Gressbach, and he’s not willing her to anybody. Charles Sprague sweeps so clean, there’s nothing left but his trusty broom, which he leaves to Junior Hall. Arnold Turner—When asked what he wanted to will, said, I ain’t a sayin’. I ain’t a-sayin’.” Leonard Tuttle leaves his janitor broom to Marshal Barnes,—to lean on. Walter Y'astbindcr leaves his vast mental storehouse of useful information to Bob Barringer. Eldin Wheeler— Whatever is left down in the Physics laboratory when 1 get through,” says Eldin, r’I leave to next year’s class.” Stewart Wickline leaves his faithful wad of gum to Jack Jolliff. Wallace Wickline—Said he didn’t have anything that was worth willing to anyone except the last seat in the senior home room. b Anita Branner and Loretta Fisk Page borty om Time—Summer of 1949—nine o’clock in the evening. Place—Living room of the Tinklefoote home. Mrs. Tinkle-foote, nee Geneva Wilson, has had some of her old friends for an evening of reminiscing. The party is coming to a pleasant end as the curtain opens. Characters—Miss I.eola Haines, Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Eckley, Mr. and Mrs. Harold Bailey, and Miss Glengene Wind-offer. Beata—Oh, we’ve had such a nice time, Geneva. 1 wish we could have parties like this more often. Leola—It would he almost impossible, though, since most of us live so far apart. Phyllis—I imagine Harold and Tom will he coming after you and me pretty soon, Beata. (Doorbell rings.) Geneva (Going to door)—I’ll bet that’s the fellows now. Harold and Tom—Hi, Geneva! How’re you doin’? Geneva—Hello! Come on in. Harold and Tom—Hi there, Leola. (Shake hands.) Leola—Hi, fellows. It certainly has been a long time, hasn't it? Harold—You bet! Harold and Tom—Hello, Glengene! Glengene—Hello, boys! (Shake hands.) Harold (to Phyllis and Beata—Are you girls about ready to go home? Tom—Hey, Harold, we don’t want to go home yet. Look, here’s a picture of the old class. Let’s look at it. (Gets picture and sits down on davenport. Everybody gathers around.) Glengene—You know, there is some of the kids 1 haven't seen since we graduated. I wonder what they’re all doing. Harold—Oh, you know, Herbie Grcggerson has a swell dance orchestra. Joe Himcbaugh is playing his trumpet in it. Tom—Ned Himebaugh didn’t go ahead with his trombone, but he's the head electrician at the N. C. R. Leola—You know, Edith Callahan liked the part she had in the Senior play so she decided to make that her life role. She and Ralph are maid and butler at some large estate in Oakwood. Glengene—Anita Branner really went places. She is a dietician at some hospital in Harlem. That’s what she always wanted to do. Geneva—Betty Smith certainly has changed. Oh. she’s a librarian at Heidleberg University. Phyllis—I always thought Charlie Casscl would be a preacher, but he's the president at Harvard University instead. Beata—He really went places, didn’t he? I went on a vacation to Michigan last summer, and 1 found out that Dick Morter is running a tourist camp there. Geneva—Oh, you know, Una White is a hard working girl at Elder's. She works in the ready-to-wear department. Harold—Say, Jack Rohler really did go to California as soon as school was out. He’s still out there, too. I heard that he is an aeronautical engineer. Leola—1 guess Joe Flory finally grew up. I believe he's a tool designer at the Frigidaire. He has an airplane, too. He and Zelma take an airplane trip quite often. lorn—Zclma and Joe got married, didn’t they? Phyllis—Oh, yes, they’ve been married for about five years. lorn Its a good thing that Zelma went to business college so that she can keep her and Joe’s family budget balanced so well. Glengene—Oh, look, there’s Lorraine Anderson. I guess Georgie finally carried her back to ole Virginy. Beata—I guess Eleanor Schuder and Doris Zink are as good friends as ever. 1 heard that Eleanor is selling tickets at I.oew’s theater, and Doris is a private secretary to Judge Stewart Wickline. Harold—Gosh, Bill Bowden is manager of the Chicago Cubs. I guess they’re running the Reds a pretty close race for the pennant. Geneva—When I was up at the Miami Valley Hospital to have my tonsils removed, Mildred Tufts was my nurse. Phyllis—When 1 went into the Townc and Country Shoppe to pick out my trousseau, Bette Wehner modeled the clothes for me. 7 om—1 only see Bob Foskuhl when the Montgomery County Fair comes to town. He operates the ferris wheel. Leola—Oh, Honey Harp joined the navy for four years. I guess he learned how to cook pretty well there, because he’s the chef at the Biltmorc Hotel. Harold—Say, Leola, what have you been doing with yourself? Leola—I studied music in New York for a few years, and now I’m in the Metropolitan Opera. I just got home from a concert tour in Europe a few weeks ago. Glengene—Of course Marjorie Donovan was married soon after she graduated. She and her husband arc living in Texas. Beata—Viola Hicks always said she would be a scrub lady, but she surprised herself. She won an essay contest, and got to go to Europe. She studied in France. She has taken Miss Dean's place as a French teacher in our dear old Alma Mater. Tom—Bill Johnson is a leading pitcher on the Cincinnati Reds team. He’s pitched several no-hit games already this season. Harold—George Hoffman has a garage of his own in Moraine City. Phyllis—Wallace Wickline has the nicest truck farm. He has discovered some way of raising oranges in this climate. Geneva— Eldon Wheeler is doing a lot of campaigning for Nathan Gephart as mayor of West Carrollton. Leola—Loretta Fisk’s specialty is lifting faces and everything else that goes with beautifying the women. Glengene—Alherta Ellis got a ring for graduation which has hound her and Art together for the last ten years. Beat a—Bill Ellis is in the New York Symphony. I’ve seen several of his performances there. Tom—Freda Stewart is a stewardess on some airline between Dayton and Florida. In the winter time she’s in Florida most of the time and is the leading girl in a dancing chorus. Geneva—Norman Hart ell has taken over his dad's business. He must be doing pretty good because he sports around here with a couple of new cars about every year. Harold—Jimmy Kingery finally took over his uncle’s printing business. As a sideline he runs in automobile races. He’s expecting to go to the Indianapolis race soon. Phyllis—Instead of being cashier in the school cafeteria now, Zola Hinkson is cashier at Culp’s Cafeteria. She has a pretty bad case on the chef. Leola—Dawn Loesch finally copped herself a New York millionaire. They live in some penthouse on Park Avenue. Glengene—Art Chamberlain is that famous drummer in the Herbie Derbies. They’re appearing out at Hollywood now. Beata—Glenna Taylor and Richard bought that grocer}’ store across from the AAA Filling Station in Alexandersville. I guess Taylor isn’t Glcnna’s last name now, but I don’t know what it is. Tom—Norma Tucker got married, of course. She’s a Sunday School teacher, too. Phyllis—Jack Hupman has a radio shop in Dayton. I think he was about the first salesman in Dayton to handle television. Harold—His brother, Jim, is a florist in Cincinnati. Geneva—Eva Willis has a French beauty shop. You know she visited in France. While she was there she married a little Frenchman. He works in the shop and gives it just the right atmosphere. Glenfiene—John Jonas is one of Dayton’s energetic policemen. who is studying to be a private detective. He is mayor of Moraine on the side. Leola—Red Maston is Fire Chief at the Southern Hills Fire Department. They say he’s the pinochle champion at that fire station. Beata—Junior Moses is singing over WLW. He’s one of television’s most popular stars. Harold—Bob Shell is follow ing in his dad’s footsteps by being one of those high-powered automobile salesmen. More women in West Carrollton have learned how to drive since he’s been an automobile salesman. Glengene—After Charlie Sprague’s trumpet fever was over he decided to be an undertaker. I guess he’s been really successful. Geneva—Arnold Turner is a bell hop at the Miami Hotel. You ought to see him with that good looking uniform on. Leola—Leonard Tuttle, they say, has one of the largest dairies in this part of the country. Phyllis—Waller Vasthinder is a radio announcer over WHIO. He certainly has changed from his high school days. Leola—What arc you doing anyway, Tom? Tom—Oh, I’m a flight surgeon in the United States Army. Glenf enc—What arc you and Harold doing, Phyllis? Phyllis—Oh, w-e’ve been so busy. We run a summer resort out at Bear Creek. We raise a lot of chickens, too. We don’t have to do much work at home, though. Harold did so well with his singing that we can afford to have a few people working for us. Harold—I just got home from a concert lour last week. Phy llis goes along to accompany me. Tom—Geneva, how have you been spending the last ten years? Geneva—Well, I didn't know whether I wanted to go to college or get married, so 1 did both. Beata—She has a pair of the cutest twins, Harold. Leola—What did you do, Beata, before you got married? Beata—After going to the University of Dayton for a year, I went out to Stephens College at Missouri. 1 had a lot of fun out there. Harold—Say John Husti is an auctioneer for the American Tobacco Company. Say! Glengcne what are you doing now ? Glengene—I? Oh. I’m house mother for the Freshmen girls at Northwestern University. I’m on my vacation now. Tom—Well, come on girls. It’s getting late, and I believe we’ve about enough of our old classmates. Geneva—I'm so glad all of you could come. I never would have known what some of the kids were doing, unless you folks had told me. Girls—We had just a grand time, Geneva. Now, you must come and see us. Everybody- -'Bye. We’ll be seein’ you. come and sec us. (The Bailey's and the Eckley's go out the door.) ( Curtain ) —Harold Bailey Glengene Wind offer. Page Forty-three We want to get Lorraine started out right in her career, so we've decided to give her a house. I want Phyllis to have this bucket to hold her tears when Harold moves away. I’m afraid a hanky won’t be big enough. We’ve been told that one of our petite senior girls is going to enroll in a business college, so we would like to present to Zelma a typing eraser to straighten out all the mistakes she may make in life. Anita’s hobby is collecting recipes. We hope she’ll use this recipe book for more than just a part of her collection. It is a shame how small some of our dignified seniors arc, so we would like to give Edith this tonic to make her grow. Just in case he doesn’t show up on June 17, we want Marjorie to have this little bridegroom. We know Alberta will get one of these sooner or later but we just had to show off a bit and beat him to it. Here is a ring for you Alberta. One of the more creative creatures in our class has decided to take up beauty culture. We hope Loretta will use this bottle of nail polish in the first shop she operates. To Lcola we were told to deliver this contract from the Metropolitan Opera Company. The only thing I could think of for Zola was a picture of “Bing’’ Crosby. Just to be accommodating I’ve crossed off the Crosby and substituted Miller. For Dawn there was only one practical gift—a package of tardy slips already signed by Miss Marsh. In case Eleanor ever gets tired of red hair we want her to be able to do something about it. To Eleanor we give this bottle of hair dye. We take great pleasure in presenting Betty Smith with the key to Alexandersville. Beata intends to go to the U. D., but for those leisure hours we give her this horse. When it comes to being practical we can’t be beat. For Freda we have some sleeping powders. Glenna is so little and cute we’ve decided to give her something that is little and cute, too—something that she can probably make use of in the near future. We want Glenna to have this big apron. In case Walter might be concerned in Norma’s life we give her a rolling pin. Mildred is going into nurses’ training after school is out. We want her to have this rubber doll to practice on. A date book was the best bet for Bette Wehner. We helped to fill it by putting Junior Seekamp’s name in it every day of the week and twice on Sundays. No matter what happens; earthquake, thunder-storm, hurricane, or a war, Una is always grading papers after school for Mr. Brown. Here is a red pencil, Una, to help you remember all the times to make a check mark. Eva is our dancing doll, so to help her along we are giving her a new- pair of shoe soles. Geneva runs a contest with all the other senior girls to see who can wear the most and longest ribbon. We hope this little bit will help you, Geneva. Next fall Glengene will be up on Lake Michigan going to school at Northwestern. We want her to have this bathing cap to keep the lake water out of her ears. For Doris we wanted to get something she really does need. If you’ll come here, Doris, we’ll give you this Safe Driving’’ book. Ever since Viola entered our senior class she has had to sit with Marjorie because we didn’t have enough seats to go around. Here is a chair for you Viola. Now you can sit alone. After school life Harold is going to take to the country. Here is a straw hat to keep the sun from that good looking face. We want Bill Bowden to have this baseball autographed by Babe Ruth. Charles Cassel is going to Wittenberg after he is graduated. Here’s some stationery so you can write to Sheila. Art likes the drums so well we just had to buy him one. Puge Forty-four For Tom we have a flashlight so that he can always find his way up the hill to sec Beata. Bill Ellis isn’t getting enough practice on his baritone, we fear. We would like to give him this time sheet to remind him to spend more time with his music. To that flying Flory of the football field we give this football trophy to remind him of all the yards he has run. Boh Foskuhl never says a word, but if he ever does open his mouth we want to be sure and hear him so this megaphone is for Bob. Nate is such a good looking fellow, so to help him stay that way we are giving him a curling iron. Herbie” is a born leader. Here is your baton, Herbie.” We want Honey” Harp to have this waiter’s cap to keep the golden locks out of his eyes while he serves milk shakes at Shells. For Norman we have a package of candy cigarettes. Stick to ’em, Norman. For the lesser half of the Himebaugh twins we have a toy trumpet. Step right up, Joe. Because Ned and Joe are twins we will give Ned a horn also. This wasn’t made in Germany but I guess you could use it in the German Band. Whenever anything goes on—class plays, operettas, stunt nights, basketball games, baseball games, football games, or picture shows, George is always there to help when help is needed. For George we have a badge to reward him for all the work he has done. I’ve heard that Jack Hupman is a whizz in Manual Training, so for Jack we have a piece of wood he can whittle on the rest of his life. We feel that a bottle of wave-set would come in very handy for one of our boys that has such lovely wavy hair. This is for you, Jim Hupman. John Husti has so much that all we could do is to wish him good luck, so to John we give this charm to hang in his car to keep away evil spirits. Poor Jimmy Kingery has to walk every place he goes, so we’re going to give him a car. We’re not beauticians but we do feel that Bill Johnson could use this freckle cream. We consider Johnny Jonas the baby of the senior class so we’re going to give him some suckers. Red” Maston never did like to study, but to keep him quiet while the rest of us try, we are going to give him a funny paper. This is no fish story. It has been rumored about school that Dick Morter is going to spend his summer at a summer resort. We want him to take this fish fly with him. What could be more fitting than to give Junior Moses a copy of Martha”. This alarm clock is for Jack Rohler. We hope, for his sake, that he is never late to see Una again. Shell is no song bird but nevertheless we want him to have this copy of Margie”. Sprague has leaned on a broom at school for some time. We’re giving him this broom, but instead of leaning on it we want him to use it once in a while. Arnold Turner is so quiet we will give him this deck of cards so that he can play solitaire. Leonard Tuttle is giving up the city life for the wide open spaces. Here’s a hoe, Leonard. Do your digging. You can always tell Walter when you see him in a crowd by his hair. Here is a comb, Walter. Go to work. Just in case Eldin Wheeler doesn’t get to travel in the west we want him to have this western magazine. Wallace doesn’t look under-nourished, but I’ve heard that he has some appetite. Here is some food, Wallace. For Stew'art we have a ball bat. You can put a nick into it for every home run you’ve ever hit, but save, at least, a splinter. Zola 11 ink sou Phyllis Bailey Page Forty-jive Way hack in the twenties, we all started out. Old fate in these twelve years has brought much about. We've studied and worried, hut still had our fun; Our lessons of life have just now begun. Just sixty big babies before you now stand; With success each ambition, we sadly disband. We all make mistakes as through life we roam. But our bfggest mistake was to write this dumb poem. We just got our orders from Pro-fess-or Brown: No unscrupulous language shall in this be found. So listen, dear reader, we'll try to express The good points of each and the rest we’ll forget. We’ll now call the roll of our dear senior class. But the first on the roll we’ll talk about last. The last on the roll is that cute Doris Zink; If she keeps on with shorthand, she ll succeed—we think. One girl is outstanding for her dramatic ways; It’s Cilengene, folks, she’s always in plays. Eva is pretty, she’s quiet and kind. Though out among friends, she’s tactful—you'll find. Our boy, Fldin Wheeler, is lovable too; He doesn’t think his ancestors live in the zoo. The two Wickline boys are in this class too; They don’t think their grandpa lives there—cither. Wallace, that shy boy, has become quite a man; Men with such brains are seldom on hand. Stewart's a hero, 'cept when he doesn't play— Babe Ruth got his start in the very same way. Geneva’s the girl, she certainly does rate. More love and marriage is surely her fate. Una’s ideal, with Jack we agree. She’s now leaving school but she won’t long be free. Betty Wehner’s a girl whom everyone likes She never goes out with the same boy twice. Ump-pa-pa, Um-pa-pa, that’s what Tuttle plays. He'll follow a fiddler the rest of his days. Turner's a redhead, but quiet and cool. He runs like a jack-rabbit to get to school. That Tufts girl’s a wizard, she’ll make a good nurse. If she doesn’t make you better, you’re bound to get worse. Next on the list, is that blonde Norma Tucker, Whoever g ets her is certainly no sucker. Glenna Taylor’s a scholar with many an A”; If she keeps up her work, she’ll get there some day. Freda's a jitterbug, and all full of pep. But in coming to school, she’s all out of step. Sprague and his trumpet are bound to succeed. He'll never depend on Uncle Sam for his feed. Beata’s an author. Miss Davidson knows. But Cupid’s been 'round and his affect grows. Bob Shell’s the class Romeo, he really gets 'round. But in all of his pickings, Margie’s best that he's found. Betty Smith’s a swell kid, we’ll have to confess. Such fine traits of character, we all should possess. Our class has a redhead with beauty galore. It’s F.leanor Schuder, she has a future in store. Jack Rohler’s a spokesman, no douht you have heard. In all of his dealings, he has the last word. Junior's a vocalist, at least he does sing. After this week, he must use his own w ing. That Chamberlain lad is two problems combined; He uses his mouth and seldom his mind. Joe Himebaugh. on his trumpet, really can play. He links love and music in a very cute way. The next on the list is Anita Branner, A girl with a charming and pleasing manner. Flory is mighty and liked by all Regardless of size, he sure can play hall. We've finally encountered a model young man; Bill Johnson, I betcha, in sports he was grand. Page Forty-six John Jonas, in some chinas, does exceedingly fine— When love tomes around—coward school-work he’s blind. Lola is musical; studious coo. Of Mr. West’s favorites, she’s one of the few. That Foskuhl’s a hero, we don’t know what for. His crazy wisecracks are always a bore. Nate Gephart gets civics like nobody’s biz. In athletics too, he was always a whiz. Of the Hupman twins, we never hear much. But when Jim becomes angry, he raises a fuss. Jack seems very quiet, hut his mind surely works. In all their ways, they’re pretty good twerps. Kdith's a daisy, we’re glad she enrolled. Her character traits arc worth more than gold. Another great scholar belongs to this class. It’s Norman, the darling, his flag’s at half mast. Our baby, John Husti, has nothing to fear. Till the Republicans come into power next year. Viola’s a beauty, great brilliance she's shown. Life seemed more worth living since she became known. That Donovan lassie, we're proud to possess. And all the way ’round, she’s one of our best. Tom Eckley’s our president, he's romantic tt . If he doesn’t forget women, he’ll never get through. Some people have friends, some more than their share, Loretta has hundreds; they're found everywhere. Greggcrson’s hand has made quite a name. When they hit a sour note, he says, I’m not to blame . Petite Zola Hinkson seems perfect because The Pirate’s Log sport pages have brought much applause. Morter’s a big boy, he likes to fish. Sea food is also his favorite dish. Another cute redhead is possessed by the class, Maston’s his name, his lessons come last. That Loesch girl's a problem to Tarvin—poor man. He’s been after her continually since school began. Kingery’s our playboy, he drives two new cars. He wouldn’t rate high if he had cars like ours. The Bailc s are partners, we’ll have to agree. Wherever is one, they’re both hound to he. They're pleasant, ambitious, and scatter much glee. More Baileys, more Baileys the world wants to see. Zelma's another that’s in the same click. That bad baby Cupid has sure got ’em picked. That Bowden’s a hitter, in baseball we mean. On the big league diamonds, he’s bound to be seen. Bill Ellis is playing with Basset this year. His greatest ambition is all very clear. Alberta’s a girl who in beauty has grown. Her personality and character has made her w-ell known George Hoffman’s one baby we’re proud to present. In four years to all much help he has lent. Honey”, that Harp boy, is the club presidink. If it wasn't for him the Hi-Y club would sink. Cassel’s a marvel, he’s almost a wit. If we wrote what we think, he'd have a fit. Lorraine is ambitious, in Dayton she worked. To finish that hope chest, she never has shirked. Most important of all has been saved until last; To pacify all was an awful big task. Mr. Brown did succeed without many fights. And as time comes, w-e are holding no spites. Goodby fellow students, we wish you success, We'II miss Mr. Shade and all the rest. And the faculty too; you've been very kind. In helping us babies develop our mind. And seniors, dear seniors. Oh. please don't find fault. As we’re just two more babies; I’m Ned; I’m Walt. CLASS P I!
