THE BOARD OF CONTRO Athletics The officers of the Board of Control are: President ---------- Ree Crowner Vice President - -- -- -- - Aeden Jackson Secretary - -- -- -- -- Ralph McIntire Treasurer - -- -- -- - Prof. C. E. Stookey The Board of Control is an organization of the High School that is often overlooked by the student body, nevertheless it is one of the most important organizations of the school as far as athletics are concerned. There is not enough co-operation between the rep¬ resentatives. The representatives come to the meetings not know¬ ing how the room feels about a certain matter ,and in this way dif¬ ficulties sometimes arise. The only way to have an efficient Board of Control is for the members to co-operate. This Board is composed of thirty members from the student body, and four from the faculty. The facultry acts as advisers to the Board. The duty of this Board is to take care of matters per¬ taining to sports, the buying of suits and equipment that the players need, etc. But we must stop here a moment. To buy equipment we must first have the money. The money that we get must come from the games. Football and basketball proceeds were fairly good this year but the baseball gate receipts have been low, although bet¬ ter than last year. The Board, as well as the player, needs the sup¬ port of the school. The Board has set aside a sweater fund. This fund is for sweaters for the football men only. No money can be drawn from this fund for any other purpose unless absolutely necessary. This fund is preserved by the entertainments that have been carried on, and not by money from the games. Begin the next year right, when you have any good sugges¬ tions let your room representative know about them so that they may receive due consideration .from the Board. Just one word for the representatives next year: be at every meeting, don’t fail, this is important work and you should do all that is in your power to make the most efficient Board possible. Ralph McIntire, Secretary.

HISTORY OF ' After the state Y. M. C. A. convention, held in London, Ohio, the latter part of the year 1915, it was decided to have a High School Y. M. C. A. organization, in order that the Young Men’s Chris¬ tian Association could work together in a co-operative way. The Hi Y Club held its first meeting on Jan. 7, 1916. At this meeeting the club was organized and officers were elected as follows: President, Paul Knoedler. Vice President, Karl Krobb. Secretary, Ness Irvine. Treasurer, Edgar Lenhart. The meetings were placed in charge of Rev. Whallon, who gave many interesting talks to the boys. Some of the prominent business men of the town gave short addresses during that year. Among them were: Mr. Hanlon, Rev George Shurtz, Mr. Snedeker and Dr. Long. Many good social times were enjoyed by the Hi Y members that year and two of the leading attractions were the Zoller Mandolin Club and the Karl Krobb Kompany. It is said that fabulous sums of money were spent in order that these companies might entertain the club. The Hi Y Club did not really become a big organization until late in 1916. Beginning in November, meetings were held every Friday for several weeks. New officers of the club were elected as follows: President, Clifford Westenbarger. Vice President, Heber England. Secretary, Bernard Mast. Treasurer, John Schooley. Through the kindness of the Comus staff a space was left open each month in the Comus for Hi Y notes, and the meetings were told of in this column, in order that the school might see what the Hi Y Club was doing. HI-Y CLUB Among the most important of the meetings held were those in honor of retiring Coach “Dutch’’ Pfeifer and the new coach, Diehl At the former meeting a loving cup was presented to “Dutch by the club, in honor of his untiring and loyal efforts toward the ath¬ letic and German departments of Z. H. S. At this meeting and at the one in honor of Coach Diehl, over seventy boys were present and songs and yells were given under the leadership of Carl Cashbaugh. During the holidays no meetings were held, but again in Janu¬ ary we met. The Hi Y Club adjourned near the middle of Febru¬ ary, with the prospect of having a “bigger and better’’ organization next fall. During the past year committees were appointed by Mr. Sne¬ deker to look after the religious, membership, and social phases of the club. Many good talks were rendered and the following men honored us in this way: Rev. Shurtz, Mr. Snedeker, Mr. Miller, Mr. Mast, Coaches Pfeifer and Diehl, Mr. Flegal, Mr. Leasure, Loren Jones of the Bob Jones party, and many of the boys at the different meetings also gave short talks. In all, the Hi Y Club was very successful during these two years. The active members this year were: Rev. Shurtz, Mr. Sne¬ deker, Clifford Westenbarger, Bernard Mast, Heber England, John Schooley, Ralph Weber, Ralph Mclntire, Herbert Lind, Carl Cash¬ baugh, Upton Walters, Paul Baker, Hamilton Bell, Perry Crum- baker, Daniel Price, Harold Talley, Earl Tilton, Russell McSwords, Leslie Johnson, Warne Still, Warren Black, Chauncy Swingle, Don¬ ald McCann, Douglas Duncan, Graydon Clifton, Holston Grassell, Clarence Miller, Fred Torbert, Lawrence Morrison, William Roben- alt, Roland Jones, Sammy Johnson, William McCarthy, Richard Atwell, Edwin Roe, William Heck, Leo Levi, Delmer Ardrey, Fuller Sherlock, James Offenbacher, John Rowland, Wilburt Fulton, Bur¬ dette Kappes.
