HOARD OF EDI CATION On the first ami third Tuesday eveninss of each month six Ashtabula citizens, who have been elected to serve on the Board of Education for a term of four years, meet in the superintendent’s office at the hijrh school to transact the business for the City School System. This year the teachers cooperated with the School Board by taking a voluntary ten per cent cut in their salaries. By so doing the school was able to complete the entire school term. The clerk of the Board of Education, Mr. Charles E. Peck, was first elected to the board in 1905. Mr. C. H. Bartram, superintendent at the docks, has served the school for 15 years. For 11 years Miss Viola Deuress, a milliner, has belonged to the board, and for five years, Mr. W. S. Clifford has been a member. In January, 1932, two new members joined the hoard. They were Mr. Harry Phelps, greenhouse owner, and Mr. Theodore Warren, an attorney. For the fall term this year the Board of Education was pleased to be able to open the new Bunker Hill Building, which represents an $80,000 investment. Nine Administration MR. C. J. W.

All you midshipmen (sophomores) and junior cadets (juniors) it is si bells and all's well. You are gathered here in this steadfast ship, the “A. H. S.”, sailed in the turbulent and rock ridden sea of “youth and preparation by Captain C. J. W. Luttrell, ably assisted by a drew of officers and super manouvered by Admiral M. S. Mitchell, to listen to the history of the dlass'of senior cadets (class of ’32). When they entered this training ship in the year 1929, they were a raw lot of untrained and seasick recruits. Some soon found their sea legs and were swabbing the decks. Besides this they began to take on outside activities. One boy and two girls succeeded in becoming lettermen on the basketball team. Three landed on both feet in the battery division (football). Bemiece Capps and William Stinchcomb were praised for their excellent work in bookkeeping. Lawrence Gerrety was dhosen drum major in the band and has held that position for three years. Several aspiring Tibbetts and Mesdames Pons were given places in the glee club. One, Neal Lusk, had an important part in the cast of the annual operetta. The following year, after being advanced to the rank of juniors, they elected officers as follows: Ernest Scott, Doris Reznor, Jean Westfall and Margaret Hat- rack. Having been taught the ropes and tricks of the trade under the guidance of Coach McElroy, thirteen members of the class were chosen to do battle on the gridiron. Seven proved themselves basketball players. Jane Cederquist, Jack Kerger and Junior Wentling were elected to offices in the Dramatic Club. Five members gained honors in bookkeeping, world history, shorthand, and presentation of the annual operetta. They were Anna Sholtis, Cletus Brink, Billy Stinchcomb, Eleanor Cimorell and Olavi Rinta-maa respectively. Enrolled in the National Honor Society were Natalie Herrick, Cecil Hill, Laura Koski, Kavanaugh Pruitt, Jean Westfall and Ruth Westfall. First deck: The ambition and goal of every midshipman! The last year and calm weather in sight. The order was to sail safely and honorably on in the voyage into the port of “Graduation. The class officers elected were Ernest Scott, Robert Holmes, George Halleen, and Henry Olson. Seasoned veterans were the mainstays of both the athletic teams. In football there were Cletus Brink, Sheldon Boudeman, Carl Dascoli, David Guarnieri, Elmer Gazdagh, David Knowlton, Carmen Lignetta, Dominic Massucci, Grant Rosensteel, Ernest Scott (Captain) and Charles Teed. In basketball there was one veteran letterman while another senior cadet, Dominic Massucci,also won a letter. The following seniors; were chosen club presidents: Junior Wentling, Hobby Association; Michael Donato, Spanish Club; Doris Reznor, Kronikon Club; Jean Westfall, Latin Club; Laura Koski and Cecil Hill, French Club; Bernice Krouldis, Girls’ Glee Club; Jane Cederquist and David Knowlton, Dramatic Club; Lida Haven and Kavanaugh Pruitt, Press Association; Natalie Herrick, Owaissa Girl Reserves; Francis Shaw, Senior Hi-Y; Cecil Hill, Quill and Scroll and National Honor Society; Robert''Johnson, and Betty Lyman, Senate; Frank Ferguson, I. A. C.; Omar Thorpe, Booster Club; and Virginia Morehouse and Vienna Karsikas, G. A. C. Those admitted to the National Honor Society were Allen Bailey, Doris Dunlavy, Jean Flick, Lida Haven, Bernice Krouldis, Virginia Morehouse, Ralph Ramos, Doris Reznor, Olavi Rintamaa, Eileen Tong, Junior Wentling and Stanley Woofter. Senior cadet band members were eleven in number and there were twelve seniors in the ship’s orchestra. Scholastically the class of ’32 ranked high. In the general scholarship test given at Jefferson in March, Ashtabula won three out of six places. These went to Cecil Hill, Olavi Rintamaa and Jean Westfall. In a Quiz Book Contest on Prohibition, sponsored by the Ohio Anti-Saloon League, Francis Shaw took first place for the boys of the county. He was rewarded by a trip to Washington, D. C., with all expenses paid. This, my mates, is our reason for believing that the graduating class of '32 is the best that has ever reached Port Graduation.

Junttir (Class History By William Regner • Down the nautical stream of education drifts the trim and stately ship of ’32. This ship is most modern in design and is rated as the best in its class. It has the distinction of having won many prizes and broken several records. But wait! What is the name which is printed in neat black letters on the prow? Oh ho! The fog lifts on the horizon and it looks like clear sailing weather ahead, mates. Those letters read “Ashtabula High School, Junior Class, ’32,” so let’s hoist aboard and give ’er a closer look. Glance above and see that man in his crow’s nest. He is the man-on-watch for rocks and reefs ahead and is the junior faculty, consisting of Miss Winifred Fay, Miss Gertrude Gaines, Miss Jenny Lind Givens. Miss Lavilla Phares, Miss Genevieve Sauvey, Mr. Raymond St. John, and Miss Doris Stratton. Sh—here comes the captain who is at the head of all the crew and who represents the junior officers: Robert Gerrety, president; John Kneen, vice president; Edward Jenkins, secretary; and Virginia Johnson, treasurer.

Agnes was also a judge at the tryout held the first of the year. These juniors were admitted; Ward Davenny, Marie Hatie, Leora Malquest, and Marian Miller. At the helm was the Senate including Eugene Allshouse, Tony Donato, Byron Ellsworth, Reino Kahelin, Irma Kumlin, Dale Richards, William Warmington. Edmund Johnson, Harold Sage, Mary Rita Meaney, and Thelma Rapley). In the second semester’s senate, Eugene Allshouse was elected vice president and Byron Ellsworth, secretary-treasurer. The following hands have been ardent students at the ship’s library, having made the semester honor roll: Marie Allen, Roberta Dingee, Riley Eastlick, Mary Louise Cimini, Harold Frederick, Marcella Gerry, Richard Goldsmmith, Viljo Hanhi-lanimi, Betty Hewins, Robert Hill, Reino Kahelin, Irma Kumlin, Lois Jennings, Ruth Jepson, Virginia Johnson, Ruth Jordan, John Kneen, Helen Long, Margaret McNamara, and Vilette Taylor. As subscription solicitors, the juniors cannot be beaten. Roberta Allen, a junior, had charge of the Navy team, assisted by Miss Bess Hayes, faculty adviser. This team defeated the Army 117 subscriptions to 109. The voyage has been a successful one so far, and land will soon appear in sight, so it looks as though the rest of the trip is to be a very prosperous one. Oh! here comes the bos’n and what does he say in his message? The bos’n replies: “The Captain’s orders, sir.

S. line pulls into port from a nine months’ voyage on the Sea of Education, we glance over the log of the voyage and we find that Captain C. J. W. Luttrell has been ably assisted by his excellent crew of teachers. The trip was marked by the unusually fine weather and the congeniality of the passenger list. Probably due to the efforts of the sophomore home room teachers, Mr. R. B. Ball, Mr. Ralph Betts, Mr. E. B. Pendleton, Miss Hildur Marie Olnon, Mr. L. W. Russell, Miss Laurella Sanders, Miss Mary Stayman, and Miss Lillian Woodruff. Looking over the passenger list we see that there were honor members on it. On the semester honor roll Betty Burdick, Thomas Byrnes, George Pubach, Robert Fortune, John Koren, Rebecca Kunkle, Marcia Luke, Mary Jane Sherman, and Gladys Whittenberger received no mark below “A”; receiving all “A’s” and ”A- pluses’’ ex-cept one “B-plus” were Violet Asmund, Wallace Feasler, Rita Gordon, Hoyt Kelley, | Robert Knierim, David Loeb, Lucille Meaney, and Nellie Tigal; receiving no mark be- Forty-Four Classes HOME ROOMS TWEXTV-SIX AND T KXTl'-XIXB First Row: Louis Denik, Louis De Talma.

This class had the largest representation on the honor roll. One boy, Robert Fortune, received all “A-pluses” for a six weeks’ marking period. Among the passengers were many who distinguished themselves in football. They are Angelo Bernardo and Richard Rawson, who received letters, Llewelyn Evans, George McCarthy, Raymond Rawson, Earl Salo, Robert Van Tassel, George Wallace, and Orville Wright. On the basketball squad we find Angelo Bernardo, Jay Colin, George McCarthy, Earl Salo, Walter Scott, and Robert Van Tassel. The girls also excelling in basketball are Pauline Calaway, Dorothy Colucci, Virginia Outright, Alice Hartnell, Jean Hewitt, Rebecca Kunkle, Laura McClintok, Bernice Plain, Mary Jane Sherman, and Anna Torma. Some of our passengers were musical and participated in the ship’s concerts.

The former has as its officers the following: Eva Rothaus, president; Lucille Meaney, vice-president; Betty Stroup, secretary; Alice Hartnell, treasurer; Floyd Broughton, chaplain; Melba Franklyn, interclub council representative. Faculty advisers are Miss Isabel Day, Miss Winifred Fay, and Miss Hildur Olson. The Torch Hi-Y, of which Mr. Albert Wisner is faculty adviser, was officered for the first semester by the following members of the crew; president, David Sheldon; vice-president, Jay Colin; secretary, Jack McKay; and treasurer, Earl Salo. For the second semester the officers were Albert Callender, president; Charles Hoadley, vice president; Walter Kimble, secretary; and Lloyd Bentley, treasurer. Two of our members acted as cheer leaders for the year. They were chosen by the Senate after competing with three other students. These two boys are Dean Hub-hard and David Sheldon. They filled this difficult position admirably well, and in their white sweaters and trousers, they appeared as true sailors.

The sophomores who received “A” tor a semester average in history were admitted to the Kronikon club. They are Sam Collette, Helen Gary, Rebecca Kunkle, and Mary Jane Sherman. In the Girls’ Athletic club these girls endured the horrors of the initiation: Adeline Beckwith, Jean Brownlee, Rachel Capps, Frances Eller, Rita Gordon, Louise Graham, Jean Hewitt, Alice Hogue, Margaret Kelley, Rebecca Kunkle, Helen Lynch, Marian Morris, June Myers, Pauline Xemitz, Alice Prichard, Alicia Ramos, Mary Jane Sherman, Betty Stroup, Marion Van Nostrand. At the second semester’s election Rita Gordon was elected treasurer. In the Latin club Albert Callender is aedile; Gladys Whettenberger, consul; Harold Weaver, censor! and Nellie Tigal, tribune. For three days this orderly ship was thrown into confusion by the advent of the sophomore tests. On January 4, 5, and 6, under the supervision of their home room teachers, the poor sophomores struggled with these tests. The complete tests were sent to Columbus and will be sent to the colleges.

Various nationalities were represented on this voyage, one of the most unusual being Carmen Quesada who was born in Costa Rica and lived there for twelve years. The sophomores topped the percentage of attendance with 98.8 per cent. Mr. Ball’s room, 27, had the highest percentage on board ship. In the magazine contest held in October, this class took another first place, with Miss Sanders’ home room, 22, ranking first. Miss Sanders herself received a valuable prize due to the efforts of the students and herself. To aid the distribution of the Dart Newspaper, the home room teachers appointed a committee to select a salesman for the room. Besides selling Darts, they assisted in the ticket sales of various Athletic events. These are the worthy sailors who performed those duties: Lloyd Bentley, David Cimini, Stafford Farr, Alice Hogue, Edward La Bounty. David Loeb. Glenn Nelson, Martha Palazo, and Gladys W'hittenberger. We have found that this voyage of ’32 has proved unusually successful. It is hoped that the voyage of ’33 and ’34 will prove equally pleasant and successful.

NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY “This certifies that-----------------, having exhibited superior scholarship, ex- emplary character, a spirit of unselfish service and loyal student citizenship during his high school course, merits the confidence and appreciation of the faculty and student body and is hereby awarded membership in the Ashtabula Chapter of the National Honor Society of Secondary Schools.” Thus read the certificates presented those students honored with membership in this society, the award most coveted by all high school pupils. Two induction services are held each year in Ashtabula High School, at which time five per cent of the junior class and fifteen per cent of the senior class, including those admitted in their junior year, may become members. Induction services are conducted by nine members of the society, a regent, emblem interpreter, chaplain, two torch bearers, and four wardens. The emblem interpreter explains the meaning of the keystone, which is the emblem of the society, and the colors white, gold, purple, and red for the stations of character, scholarship, leadership, and service, respectively. The following members conducted the first induction ceremony of the year: Natalie Herrick, Cecil Hill, Laura Koski, Kavanaugh Pruitt, Jean Westfall, Ruth West-fall, and Alumni Lena Hatalini Betty Gross, and Paul Shellhammer. Faculty members serving on the committee for the selection of candidates during the year were Miss Hildur Marie Olson, Miss Lavilla Phares, Mr. Ralph Betts, Mr. George Starr and C. J. W. Luttrell. The committee has always cast a unanimous vote for each candidate selected to membership in the society. Fifty-Six Organizations (1111.

QUILL AND SCROLL Millions of people look to the printed word for guidance in pursuing the affairs of life and in directing the powers of government. The nation has faith in its journalists. To encourage the high school journalist to write honest news articles and to reward the individual who does, the Quill and Scroll, an international Honorary Society for high school journalists, was organized by a group of high school supervisors, April 10, 1926. The organization consists of over six hundred chapters which are located in every state of the union, in Hawaii, England, China, British Honduras and Alaska and has twelve thousand young journalists from schools wearing the badge of the society. This badge consists of a quill and a scroll which represents the painstaking effort of the early scribes in copying the literature of that day. To be a member of this society a high school journalist must be in the junior or senior class, scholastically in the upper third of his class, do outstanding and distinctive work in some phase of journalism and be recommended for membership by the society’s national officer designated for that duty. While juniors the officers and Vern Bowman gained membership. The remainder of the members were taken in at a later date.

HOBBY ASSOCIATION A better scholastic standing, a strong school spirit, and cooperation among members and clubs are the aims of the organization very appropriately named the Hobby Association. The organization is divided into four units: Camera, Sports, Pen and Pencil, and Art. The members join the units according to their individual interests and capabilities. For the past three semesters the Art Division has served many by making linoleum cuts for the Dart. The members also made sterling silver bracelets. Mr. Lyle Burroughs’ willingness to assist the Camera Club in securing snap shots and silhouettes for the Dart Yearbook was of no little importance in the program of this unit. A small room near the chemistry laboratory has been used as the darkroom for the developing of the negatives. The Pen and Pencil Group was fortunate in securing a few of the prominent men of the city to speak before the entire association which meets the first Wednesday of each month. Rev. R. H. Rolofson spoke on his. travels in Egypt; Mr. S. C. Peterson gave an interesting talk on aviation and Mr. Frank Yocum talked on the subject of paint. Athletes compose the division of the Hobby Association known as the Sports Unit. It is noted for its clever basketball team, coached by Mr. R. W. Betts. The team won the tournament. Boys alone are eligible for membership. Fifty-Eight Organizations i I.ATIX C l.I I First Row: William Warmington, George Burnette, Floyd Smiley, Hoyt Kelley.

RES I’l'BLICA Celebration of holiday festivals, house parties, chariot races in the Forum, peculiar household customs, men wearing the toga and others armed for battle, and all the glories that made men proud of the boast, “Romanus cives sum”, were brought to life in the book reviews and readings on Roman life given by the members of Res Publica at the monthly club meetings. z ' Comitia Tributa and the Senatus are the two divisions of the club under the supervision of Miss Lillian Woodruff. The Senatus is composed of all Virgil students anil sophomores and juniors receiving and maintaining an average of “A”. The purpose of the organization is to promote interest in the study of Latin classics. Charles Herzog, Hoyt Kelly. Jerry Koskinen and David Loeb formed an orchestra which entertained at several meetings. Piano solos were given by Ward Davenny, Roberta Dingee, Catherine McKinney and Hoyt Kelly. Latin songs were led by Alice Hogue and Leo George. Santa Claus, Jerry Koskinen, visited the Latin Club Christmas party which was held in the lunchroom Monday evening, December 14, distributing gifts among the members. The 11A class won a Latin spelling match in which the rivalry between the classes was strong. Christmas carols were sung in Latin. Throughout the year Gladvs Whittenberger acted as program chairman and Hoyt Kelly as decoration and refreshment chairman.

A. campaign by a team from the Ovvaissa Club, the big sister of all Girl Reserve Clubs in Ashtabula. Individual interests of members of the club, which is open to all j’uniors and seniors, were stressed. Each girl designated her hobbies during an opening campaign, making it possible to form the year’s program from ideas of girls themselves. Girls listened to stories, cooked supper over an open fire, and studied stars under the tutelage of Rev. E. R. Carter at the Girl Reserve cabin during October. Indian legends were the basis of an original ceremonial, written by Owaissas to induct new members of uptown and Harbor senior clubs at Walnut Beach, October 13. Owaissas joined with the Hi-Y in a Halloween party at the Y. M. C. A. and a dawn service, Thanksgiving morning at the First Methodist Church. Candlelight and evergreens were the background for a Christmas vesper at which Jane Cederquist and Hazel Potter were readers. Miss Margaret Howard and Miss Laurella Sanders, club advisers, directed the service. Dolls, used as Christmas gifts for the needy, were mended and dressed after a supper meeting December 15. A nation wide Girl Reserve petition for world disarmament was signed. Code! discussion occupied afternoon business meetings during the winter. Little girls from needy families were adopted as sisters by Owaissa girls at a supper meeting in March. All juniors and seniors were invited to a dance sponsored by the club in April. Girls entertained their fathers at a banquet and their mothers at a tea in the spring. Sixty-Six Organizations First Row: Anna Morgan, Fay Shoppart, Sarah Nardi, Betty Burdick.

REH SIANG A little Chinese girl, Beh Siang. corresponded with Girl Reserves in Ashtabula some years ago. In her honor the Beh Siang Girl Reserve Club was named. She would have been pleased to have seen the motif of decoration of her native country on the Beh Slang table at the city wide rally, the big event of the year, held in the St. Peter's Parish House Monday, February 15. Members wore Chinese kimonas and ate with chop sticks. The club was awarded the first prize for the best table decorations. Silhouettes, leather pocketbooks, and bracelets were made in the putter shop at the Y. W. C. A. The girls celebrated Thanksgiving in the Fannie Munsell cabin decorated in accordance with the season. The members went back to childhood days forming an orchestra playing toy instruments. But Girl Reserve work has a more serious side. The code was interpreted and vocational talks were given to help the members decide upon their life work. To help the needy, useful gifts were exchanged at the Christmas party and then given to the welfare association. To recognize new members a ceremonial, “Children of the Sun”, was held at the Y. W. C. A. Tuesday, October 27. In the ceremony used, old members represented the children of the sun bringing new members, children of the earth, to the light of the Girl Reserves. • Ten dollars was pledged to the annual campaign of th? Y. W. C. A. and was raised by selling candy. The club is supervised by Miss Isabelle Day, Miss Winifred Fay and Miss Hildur Olson. Sixty-Seven Organizations Si: MO It Hl-V First Row: Charles Mndsley.

SENATE Students elected by each home room at the beginning of every semester form the Student Senate for the semester. The Senate decides questions of imi ortance to the student body. Meetings which are held each Tuesday on a rotating schedule are presided over by the president. The roll is called and the minutes of the preceding meeting are read, after which the business is taken up. It is the policy of the Senate to use all the money taken in for the benefit of the school. One means they have for earning money is the tea dances. Members of the Senate studied the government of several schools and reports of the visits to the schools were given during the year. Eugene AUshouse, Robert Johnson, Irma Kumlin, and Doris Reznor, visited Harbor High School and told of the clubs, assemblies, school schedules, and marks. Bernice Krouldis was chosen song leader, and Dean Hubbard and David Sheldon, cheer leaders. Four assemblies are sponsored throughout the year as a part of the Senate program. The artists are selected by the Senate each year. Miss Lavonne Field, an artist, sang about pictures she drew with her crayons. Mr. Charles E. Lofgren, personnel director with the Byrd Expedition, told of his experiences in the Antarctic. A magician, Edward Reno, was here to demonstrate his skill. “On the bottom of the Sea”, was the title of the talk by Mr. Ralph Zimmerman. Besides these four assemblies the Senate presented Mr. B. A. Aughinbaugh in an illustrated lecture on “What to See in Ohio.” The bulletin board on the first floor of the school is kept up-to-date by a committee of two from the Senate.

BAM) More pep and school spirit was shown at the football games when members of the band in their bright uniforms, marched down the field between the halves of the game, welcoming opponents and spelling out Ashtabula. More attention was given to marching and marching formation than in previous years. Assembly programs were given before the West Junior High, Park Junior High, Columbus Junior'High, State Road School, Edgewood Junior High and before the high school students for the purpose of encouraging more pupils in the schools to learn to play some musical instrument.

In 1929-1980 his squad captured all three championships, a feat which no other team in the league has yet accomplished. The following year his basketball team wcfn the championship and his football and track teams were runners up. In 131 and 2 the athletic department including basketball and football went into a slump but much more is expected of the track team. Black and Gold teams have ;won five, tied two, and lost three out of ten championships.

Mr. Ball earned letters in baseball, basketball, and football during his high school career. s oeen me gins interclass com-r pupils in their on for one year Ernest Scott Ernie” Scott has been an outstanding athlete ever since he entered Ashtabula High School. In ’29 he was a varsity tackle, and in ’30 and ’31 he starred as an end. The mainstay of the football team of ’31, he was injured but continued to play. This injury kept “Scotty” from playing basketball the past year. He was a regular guard on that superb quintet of ’31 which won the L. S. L. championship. Ernie” was awarded football letters in ’29, ’30 and ’31 and a basketball letter in 31. David Guarnieri Like “Scotty”. Dave” was a guard on that famous basketball team of ’31 and was the only regular man left to lead the inexperienced team of ’32. Nevertheless Dave strengthened the team a great deal and without his help it would have been much weaker. Dave also starred as quarterback on the football teams of ’29, ’30, and ’31 and received letters each year for this sport. He was guard on the basketball team of the years ’30, ’31, and ’32 and was awarded letters each year. Eighty-One Athletics FOOTBALL SQUAD First Row: George Wallace.

Collinwood took over the Panthers in the season opener 7 to 0. The Macmen’s chief weakness was found to be in the line, fumbles, and penalties being: costly for both teams. Ashtabula went to Warren to play its first night game in history, and in a pouring rain. The locals were defeated by a score of .35 to 0. In another night game Erie Academy’s lions scratched and clawed a 5.3 to 0 victory there. The Panthers offense was improved, however, gaining GG yards on passes and reeling off good gains in the running attack. Conneaut conquered the Ashtabulans in its first league game 14 to 0. The victors threatened to score several more times but the line held gamely and kept the Blue and White off the goal line. Scoring for the first time in the season, the Black and Gold men defeated Fair-port 7 to 0 on a long pass. Guarnieri threw the pass to Gerrety who carried the ball across the goal. Willoughbv surprised Ashtabula. Its clever running attack mixed with a few passes defeated the Macmen 20 to 7. In the big game of the season Harbor eked out a G to 0 victory over the Panthers on a long pass in the first Quarter. Although the locals played their best game of the year, outdowning the Mariners, they could not gain the lead. A blocked punt and a line plunge gave Ashtabula victory at Painesville. The foe’s only tally came late in the game on a long pass. Eighty-Two l«0 Athletics Stubborn Geneva held the Panthers 0 to 0 in a sea of mud. Near the end of the game Geneva threatened to score, gaining three first downs, but failed. As the time for the Thanksgiving Day game drew near coaches of both Ashtabula and Harbor predicted a tough battle. Thanksgiving weather was the best in several years; it was cool and the field was dry. When the smoke of battle cleared away the score was 0 to 0, as it has been for seven out of seventeen such battles. Ashtabula was best on defense, Harbor having four chances to score. The only time the Macmen got started was cn a lG-yard pass from Guarnieri to Massucci but a Panther was offside and the ball was called back. Conneaut won the League title with six victories and no defeats.

The program began with a song and a cheer, led by Coach J. R. McElroy, toastmaster. After the invocation, dinner (the main drawing card) was served. Following the meal Ernest Scott, honoiary captain, spoke very bravely on “The Last Game”. Next on the program was Mr. M. S. Mitchell who talked on “Touchdowns”. The main address of the evening by L. C. Boles, coach of the College of Wooster, followed. Coach Boles commented upon subsidizing football players and also on the fatalities of the season just passed Presentation of gold awards by Mr. C. J. W. Luttreli followed. To earn a gold award a player must be a senior and a former member of the Black and Gold squad. Those who received gold awards were Sheldon Boudeman, Cletus Brink, Carl Dascoli, Elmer Gazdagh, David Guarnieri, David Knowlton, Grant Rosensteel, and Ernest Scott. Coach McElroy then announced the names of those receiving letters and numerals. He was unable to award the letters as the shipment had not arrived. Those receiving letters were Angelo Bernardo, Robert Gerrety, Edward Jenkins, Richard l.aughlin, Toiva Lehtonen, Carmen Lignetta, Dominic Massucei, Joe Mozzocci, George Simon, Charles Teed, and Richard Weir. Those who received numerals were William Lewis, George McCarthy, Raymond Rawson, Earl Salo, Harry Smith, Robert Van Tassell, and Orville Wright. The others of the squad who stayed out all year and deserve a great deal of credit for their perseverance are Guilford Condron, Llewellyn Evans, Joseph Gerrety, Edmond Johnson, Raymond Mourer and George Wallace. After the presentation of awards, Mr. Luttreli gave a short talk entitled “Punts and Passes.” A song and yells to the faculty and team led by the cheer leaders, David Sheldon and Dean Hubbard, concluded the banquet.

BASKETBALL Taking everything into consideration, the basketball season of 1931-32 was satisfactory to the high school and fan . Although the Panthers won only six of thirteen games, all were hard fought. Ashtabula’s opponents outscoring them fifty-two points the whole season. Angelo Bernardo was high ncint man for the season, garnering forty-nine points out of a team total of 228. Toiva Lehtonen was next with thirty-nine, and David Guarnieri third with thirty-one. Accurate foul shooting gave Ashtabula its first victory in an exhibition game with Conneaut, 12 to 10. The Macmen scored as many points on fouls as was Conneaut’s total. The league season opened with Ashtabula playing at Geneva. The score at the half was 11 to 3 favoring Geneva, but as the fight was renewed Ashtabula scored heavily and nosed out its host 10 to 15. The Panthers’ next whipped a strong Cleveland West team into submission. The Macmen held the upper hand the whole game and came out on top with a 25 to 20 score. Ashtabula’s next guest was Harbor, which was highly touted to win. The city high boys deluged the Mariners with field goals and sent them home on the small end of a 26 to 16 score. The powerful Warren five handed the Black and Gold its first defeat of the season, 26 to 13. Conneaut was responsible for the Macmen’s first league defeat. Unable to Eighty-Four Athletics guard the long shots of Conneaut’s star forward, who scored ten points, Ashtabula was defeated 20 to 17. One of the important factors in Fairport’s victory was expert foul shooting. Fairport scored nine out of ten charity tosses, gaining a victory 15 to 14. A fast breaking offense got revenge for Rayen for their last year’s beating. Ashtabula was defeated 14 to 14. Every member of the team got into the game at Willoughby as Coach McElroy watched his men sail to an easy 35 to 15 victory. Low beams at the Harbor High gymnasium proved too great a handicap to the uptown boys as they were defeated 13 to 9 in their second game with the Mariners. The game was a slow one with Ashtabula in possession of the ball most of the time but unable to score. The Panthers paid a call up the coast to Erie to play Academy, the city champs. Academy got off to a whirlwind start and when the game was over the Lions were on the high end of a 53 to 18 score. Ashtabula, Conneaut, Harbor, Fairport, and Painesville entered teams in the Northeastern Ohio Cage Tournament, held March 20 and 27, at the West Junior High Gym Ashtabula drew the league champions. Conneaut, for the first game. Fighting furiously the Panthers humbled the league champs 15 to 8. Ashtabula then faced Fairport. The Macmen were ahead at the first half of the game but the strain of the previous contest showed up and their defense failed, Fairport winning 25 to 14. Harbor won the tournament, defeating Painesville and Fairport. Owing to changes in schedule, the L. S. league game was postponed after the season was nearly over. Painesville gave Ashtabula the victory by forfeit. Seven members of the team were awarded letters. They were Angelo Bernardo, 34, forward; Riley Eastlick, '33, guard; Robert Gerrety, ’33, forward; David Guarnieri. '32, center; Toiva Lehtonen, ’33, guard: Dominic Massucci, ‘32. guard; George McCarthy, ’34, forward. David Guarnieri was elected honorary captain for the season. Much credit should be given the second team which was coached by Robert Ball, Coach McElroy’s able assistant. They were Jay Colin, Elmer Gray, Robert Hill, John Kneen, Nick Nappi, Charles Rigo, Earl Salo. and Walter Scott. In preliminaries they won over the Hobby Club, Geneva. Conneaut. and Harbor Seconds, losing to the Senior Hi-Y, Harbor, Conneaut, and Fairport seconds. TRACK Ashtabula High School’s track team of 11 31 won only one of the three meets it entered but Nickie Colucci, one of the finest long-distance runners in Ohio scholastic competition, brought honors from meets of the keenest competition in this vicinity. The opening of the season brought Ashtabula defeat, in a dual meet, at the hands of her rival. Harbor, on April 29. The score was 70.5 to 51.5 The next week. May 1, Erie Academy administered a severe setback to the Panthers to the tune of 78 3-4 to 39 1-4. Better luck gave the Ashtabula thinclads a small margin over Conneaut. 62.5 to 59.5 on Mav 9. In the third annual Lake Shore League meet on May 18, Harbor led with the Ashtabula Panthers second. Nickie Colucci won the mile run at the Pittsburgh interscholastic track and field carnival May 9, and took second in the half mile. He also took second in both mile and half mile at the Lakewood meet. Other Ashtabula stars were Herman Greene, dash man, and Bob Gerrety, pole vault. The boys who received letters for their track work were Peter Bernardo. Nickie Colucci, Riley Eastlick, Robert Gerrety, Herman Greene, Raymond Harley, Edward Jenkins. Alton Smith and Clair Soini. Eastlick, Gerrety, and Jenkins, juniors, and Smith, a senior, competed for Ash tabula in the 1932 season. Nighty-KIvc Athletics TENNIS TOLKNAM ENT Tennis returned to Ashtabula High School with the tournament sponsored by the Senate last spring. The singles division in this tournament was won by Robert Swanson, graduate of '31, and the doubles by Junior Wentling and Lloyd Gardner, at that time county junior champions. The present county doubles championship is held by Richard Goldsmith and Bernard Goldstein, juniors of this high school. Jay Colin, now a sophomore, was runner-up in the junior singles. This year before Wentling and Gardner won the junior doubles tournament, this championship was held by Louis Vettel and Don Parker, alumni of this school. The Senate is sponsoring another tournament this year which includes competition between boys and girls. Ashtabula High School’s golf team won a match from Painesville last spring. A team composed of Ralph Bruno, Tyler Carlisle, John Colin, Ward Davenny, Ernie Fra butt, Mike Lignetta, Joseph Mozzocci, and Harry Orsuto invaded Painesville. In the match at Mentor Headlands the local boys came out on top 14 to 10. The Lake Shore League tournament was held at Mentor Headlands last fall. In the finals all were Ashtabula players. Ward Davenny won after a tough battle. Ashtabula lost to Warren in a match. In the 1032 Lake Shore golf tournament Ashtabula entered an experienced team. with Ashtabula High School athletics. The manager must not only be on hand for all •tices and take care of equipment, but must sign all contracts for games. To re-e a letter a manager must serve for two seasons. Managers of the Ashtabula High School football team of 1031 were John en and Eugene Allshouse. The basketball team was managed by Billy Warming- have one season of work to their credit. A great deal of credit for the honors received by the Ashtabula High School athletic teams is due to these managers who kept equipment in order. Although they are only sophomores with little experience, David Sheldon and Dean Hubbard, the bottled energy of Ashtabula High School, made vast improvement as time passed and molded the student body into a cheering section which charged the teams of our alma mater with the highest of spirits. These two jumping jacks should do a lot more to increase the success of Ashtabula’s athletic hopes by the time they have passed on to the place all good cheer- They had their troubles though, while the football and basketball teams were in their slumps, but a few words from Coach McElroy stirred the student body into yelling its loudest. GOLF MANAGERS A manager’s job is one of the most important and most responsible connected ton and the duties of track were taken care of by Eugene Allshouse and Jack Hind- marsh. Kneen and Allshouse received their letters and Warmington and Hindmarsh CHEER LEADERS leaders go. Blghty-SIx Athletics intramural Basketball With the establishment of eligibility rules for intramural basketball players, the sport season in Ashtabula High School took on a businesslike aspect. A league took the place of the usual Senate tourney this year. The Industrial Arts Club took championship honors from the other four teams struggling for league supremacy with eight victories and no defeats. Each club had a period on the floor and games were played off every afternoon at five o’clock. I. A. C. Under the coaching of Mr. R. C. Stevens, the I. A. C. finished the season on top of the heap, with a victory over the Hi-Y 33 to 22, to clinch the title. Ray Mourer starred in the victory with sixteen points and was high point man for the season. Harold Bennett was next in points, while George Giannell was a tower of strength on defense. i HI-Y Greatly improved by the coaching of Mr. R. B. St. John, an alumnus of A. H. S., the Hi-Y showed steady improvement throughout the year, losing the championship after a hard battle. Several boys took turns as captain of the Deacons. John Colin supplied most of the team's points while Ward Davenny and Cecil Hill were important men on the team. Hobby Association Although the Hobbyites did not win the intramural championship, they won the county class “C” tourney. Henry Olsen was honorary captain for the season and was second only to George Halleen in the number of points made and Robert Steakley was always in the thick of the fight. Mr. R. W. Betts coached. Booster Club Coached by Mr. E. B. Pendleton, the Booster Club produced another scrappy team this year and gave many another team a good fight and forced it to play heads-up basketball to beat them. Frank Humphrey was best on the offense, while Cletus Brink and John Jute did their part in checking their rivals. I atin Club Under the tutelage of Bob Gerrety, varsity player, the Latineers showed steady improvement all year. As all its members have a season or two before them, they bid fair to put up a battle for the championship next year. Jack McClimans and David I.oeb were the outstanding players. Faculty Although the Faculty basketball team, composed of Messrs. Ball, Betts, McEl-roy, Starr, Stephens and St. John did not enter the intramural league they would have made a tough battle for championship honors. The teachers boast of victory over the Hi-Y, I. A. C., Booster Club, Union.‘Club, and twice over the Harbor Faculty, and mourn their loss to the Hobby Club and I. A. C. Blghty-Seven Athletics lei n A. C . First How: Mercedes Harks, Vienna Karsikas.

GIRLS’ ATHLETIC ACTIVITIES Interclass basketball and baseball gained greatly in popularity with the lassies of A. n. S. since introduced in high school in iiJ3U. intersc ftolastic competition being banned, interclass basketball gives every girl a chance to compete in the contests. Since inter-school games were discontinued it seemed that girls would be no longer able to earn letters.. Miss Ruth Loup, girls’ athletic director, conducted a basketball tournament in which teams irom all lour classes entered. Miss Coup coached the sophomore, junior, and senior teams while senior girls coached the junior high teams. State Road was coached by Margaret llatrack, West Junior High by Virginia Morehouse, and Park .Junior High by Doris Reznor. The mterclass tournament started in February and lasted until March 4. Five teams entered the league with the determination to win, but the league finally dwindled down to a contest between the scrappy juniors and experienced seniors. In the crucial game of the season, the juniors started olf at a last clip, leading 3 to 1 at the quarter and 4 to 3 at the half. However, the experience and team work of the seniors showed itself and fiom then to the end of the game the juniors were completely baffled and the seniors won, 28 to 8. The seniors who received letters were Carmel Ambrose, Doris Dunlavy, Kathleen Freetly, Margaret Hatrack, Virginia Morehouse, Ida Oleen, Mercedes Parks and Doris Reznor. Mush ball promises to be the popular summer sport this year. A tournament was held for the senior, junior, and sophomore girls. The games were played every every night after school of the second week in May on the school field. Freshmen, sophomore and junior girls were required to participate in the annual gym exhibition given Wednesday evening. May 4, in the West Junior High gymnasium. The seniors had a chance to be in on the feature, the tumbling act, one of the most difficult of the exhibition. Only a selected group was used. Some of the events were performed with Indian clubs, dumbbells and wands. Dances, rope jumping, tumbling and marching completed the program. The success attained in the exhibition is the result of long practice, the acts having been practiced all through the winter in gym classes. Jean Flick was accompanist for the exhibition and selected members of the band played.

Another dance which was open to anyone in high school was held Friday, May G in the gymnasium. The Black and Gold Dance Orchestra played. “TOMMY”—SENIOR CLASS PLAY “Tommy”, a comedy in three acts written by Howard Lindsay and Bert Robinson, was presented by members of the Senior Class in the high school auditorium, Wednesday, May 25. Miss Helen Orphal directed the play and the Industrial Arts Department constructed the scenery under the direction of Mr. C. A. Meister. The play is the story of a youth who brings candy to his would-be mother-in-law, cigars to his would-be father-in-law, and shows himself such a paragon of virtue that the daughter’s natural tendency to love him is checked. An uncle detects the destruction her parents are doing by eternally pushing her into Tommy’s arm and puts into the boy’s mind a scheme to mend matters. This is to do something awful and get himself thrown out of th:� house. Tommy succeeds, not only by seemingly repudiating his word of honor to his prospective father-in-law over a land deal, but also by certain unusual exhibitions of bad manners. Tommy finally clears himself of the insinuations against his character, and the girl, who is just about to be married to a young fellow of the go-getter type, is brought to happiness in Tommy’s arms. The characters in the order of their appearance were Mrs. Wilson, Anna Jane Donnan; Marie Thurber, Betty Grover; Bernard, Junior Wentling; Mrs. Thurber, Kileen Tong; Mr. Thurber, Jack Kerger; David Tuttle, John Colin; Tommy Mills. Allen Bailey; and Judge Wilson, Ralph Ramos. David Knowlton was property manager. PICNICS Suffering from indigestion for several days after eating half-baked wieners, burned marshmallows and sandy potato salad, the students of A. H. S. have vowed to ban picnics from their social life until this time next year. The Industrial Arts Club led off with a picnic at Lake Shore Park May 5, the Hobby Association followed the next week with a Spring Meet at the High School on May 11. The Senate went to I ake Shore Park, May 16. May 18, the Boys’ and Girls’ Glee Clubs went to Saybrook, Township Park to roast wieners. The next day the French and Spanish students got together at I.ake Shore Park to eat baked beans, potato salad, roasted and raw wieners, pickles, pop, and ice cream.

Ninety-Four OAIJ-XJOUIN fij?po§ Curriculum Dtthin thr Currtrulum ENGLISH Book Reports, classics, projects, themes, grammar, debates, speeches, library work, contests, and study-hall go to make up the English courses in the high school. Miss Laurella Sanders’ 10B English classes made shields and Scotch plaids in connection with their work on “Ivanhoe”. Paul Corlett, Leonard Folmer, and Howard Meahl deserve mention for their shields, and Helen Gary for her Scotch plaids. In her 10A classes Miss Sanders featured drawings and costume designing along with the regular course. Poetry is the basis of the 11B course. Original poetry was written. Irma Kum-lin, Ray Mahan, and George Simon did noteworthy work. Trial in Miss Sanders’ 10A Classes Project work, such as making newspapers, magazines, and diaries, was carried on in connection with the study of “Ivanhoe” in Miss Mary Stayman’s 10B class. Newspapers, written about “Ivanhoe”, with original drawings, and advertisements, were made by the pupils. Margaret Kelly, Rita Gordon, Lillian Gordtney, Nellie Tigal. and Ida Mae Zolokar did ouststanding work in making newspapers. Sunda Martell made a modern newspaper by bringing the scenes up to date. A magazine was made by Jean Brownlee, Frances Eller, and Billie Smith. Several others made diaries, drawings, and models. Themes based on the classics were written during the year. Llewellyn Daugherty and Nellie Tigal wrote poems which were published in the Dart Newspaper. During the study of “Ivanhoe” some illustrative material was developed by students in Miss Doris Stratton’s 10B English classes. This material was placed on exhibition on the first floor corridor during National Education Week. Some of the features included: a large shield of Richard Coeur de Lion made by John Koren; Ivory soap models of Norma castles made by Hallie Gray, Joseph Mercurio, Aili Niemi, Esther Olson, and Hilda Turja; an old Saxon war song was lettered on parchment by Hoyt Kelley; Victoria Gaier and June Laughlin dressed dolls to represent Rowena and and Rebecca; a colorful notebook illustrating costumes of the Norman-Saxon period was made by Violet Asmund. Robert Fortune, Hoyt Kelley, Robert Knierim, David Loeb, and Glenn Nelson comprised the editorial staff of “Ye Ashby Newes”, a newspaper which they represented as printed the day after Ivanhoe’s victory at the tournament at Ashby. During the study of argument, each student prepared a debate brief and class debating teams were chosen. Several debates were held using subjects of current interest to the students of the high school. Violet Asmund, Jay Colin, Wallace Feasler, Robert Fortune, Hoyt Kelley, John Koren, Frances Olix, ar.d Jay Smith showed ability in this course. The most complete and attactive notebook work in Miss Stratton’s classes war. done by Rosemary Burgett and Lucille Meaney on “The Lady of the Lake”, June Oswald on “Ivanhoe”, and Violet Asmund on “American Poetry”. The work in Mr. Robert Ball’s two 10A classes covered the writing of business and social letters, and a two weeks’ course in newswriting. Three classics, “The Merchant of Venice”, “The Lady of the Lake”, and “The Tale of Two Cities” were read during the year. Margaret Kelly, Rita Gordon, and Alice Hogue did good work in 10A English. Jean Beetham also did good Work in Mr. Ball’s I)A English class the first semester. In Miss Winifred Fay’s 11A class, students drew characters from “Lorna Doone and selected actors from stage and screen to play the characters in the story. Outstanding students were Irma Kumlin, Virginia Johnson, and Virginia Newman. Ninety-Six Curriculum “Dual-personalities” was the subject of a theme written in Miss Jenny Lind Givens’ 12A American literature class. The students wrote their themes after studying: “William Wilson” by Edgar Allan Poe and “Dr. Jekyll and Mrs. Hyde” by Robert Louis Stevenson. They used personal observation of acquaintances and tried to find the cause of dual-personality. Essays, short stories, and poems were written for the Scholastic Contest in Mr. G. G. Starr’s English literature class. “Hamlet” and Milton’s works were the basis for themes written. Oral reports on the English customs were given throughout the year. Each week the students had a certain amount of library work to do. A report of the reading done was handed in the latter part of the week and the next day the student would answer two questions on the reading. MATHEMATICS Before 3000 B. C. the Egyptians knew a great deal about mathematics, but the Greeks developed the real science of mathematics and though they worked out, to a certain extent, a theory of numbers, it was in geometry that they were chiefly interested. It is not fair to give the credit for the modern system of numbers to the Arabs, as is usually done, for the Hindus invented it, and the A nibs merely borrowed it. The tendency in mathematics, as studied in the schools today, is to make it more practical, to give problems which are not mere abstractions but have a relation to the life of the pupils. Plane and solid geometry, advanced algebra, and trigonometry are taught in the Ashtabula High School. In Miss Helen Orphal’s algebra classes, Ward Davenny and Robert Knierim did outstanding work; in solid geometry, Thomas Baker, Toiva Leh-tonen, and Jean Westfall; in Miss Ethel Edward’s plants geometry class, John Koren was an exceptional student; and Betty Burdick, Robert Fortune, Robert Knierim, Rebecca Kunkle, Lucille Meaney, Gordon Schlafke, Mary Jane Sherman, and Nellie Tigal, in Mr. R. C. Stephen’s classes. The first semester Mr. Stephens taught trigonometry and pupils doing work worthy of mention were Thomas Baker, Jean Flick,. and Jean Westfall. In order to become familiar with the use of the instruments, the class surveyed Park Street Junior High building and the library. SOCIAL SCIENCE Whether the individual suffering from tuberculosis, pneumonia, or scarlet fever should be taken care of by the state or stand the expense himself; whether the model housing law on ventilation and sanitation is an appropriate law to be followed; and whether we should have public or private ownership of commodities were some of the questions studied by the students of Miss Winifred Fay’s sociology class. One of the projects carried out was the making of model houses by the girls, and the drawing of house plans by the boys. “That the labor unions, as now organized, are beneficial to the country,” was the decision reached by the fifth period class in a debate on that subject on Nov. 4, 1931. Economics classes under the direction of Mr. R. W. Shade studied the causes of depression. In order to stimulate more interest in the study of civics, and help students understand American democracy, the students in the classes of Miss Ruth Carlisle and Mr. R. B. St. John gave debates and reports during the semester. Collateral readings of United States History and current events were also topics of interest. Abolition of the jury system, electoral college, and capital punishment were the topics for debate. The study of Civics constitutes the students’ background of the United States government, as provided for in the constitution. Ninety-Seven Curriculum LATIN Latin is a bridge which most students must cross before entering college. In high school, we are building bridges as Caesar bridged the Rubicon for his army. More is derived from the study of Latin than mere translation. After studying this language a student has a clearer conception of the Roman History, a better command of English, and has been trained in mental discipline. The Latin Course in this high school is under the supervision cl Miss Lillian Woodruff. In the sophomore classes the students made drawings depicting scenes from Roman life and posters showing the origin of many English words. Scenes from the days of Cicero were reviewed in the Junior Class. Pictures of Roman life, the government of the country, and the habits and costumes were brought out. Robert Dingee, Riley Eastlake, Betty Grover, Toiva Lehtonen, and William Warm-ington did outstanding work. In addition to the regular assignments the students in the 12B class translated five hundred lines of Virgil, scanned one hundred and fifty lines, listed the principal parts and meanings of one hundred and fifty verbs, and found seventy figures oi speech used in Virgil's Aeneid. Several students wrote themes describing characters of the Aeneid. Outstanding students in Senior Class work were Allen Bailey, Marian Kent, Laura Koski, Toiva Lehtonen, George Luce, Marion Sturdevant, and Jean West-fall. SPANISH Miss Geneveive Sauvey is the teacher of the two year Spanish course offered in high school of which the general aim is to help the student acquire vocabulary ami useful idioms so as to express himself simply and intelligibly in the language. The first year is spent in learning the general vocabulary, and the forms of verbs and other gramatical forms. A reader, Cuentos y I eyendos, which is a small primer, is used during the last of the year. Notebooks, which contained pujfures and the Spanish names of the articles in the home and other interesting things, were assembled. This year as a whole they were more nicely done than ever before. Three of the most neat and complete ones were mads by Christine l.andfear. Alicia Ramos, and Richard Weir. During second year the students read books containing short stories, acquainting the student with different sets of words and giving a larger reading vocabulary. Jean Flick and Carmen Foglio have done outstanding work during the two years. FRENCH “Bonjour, classe, Mademoiselle Mary Stayman, professeur du francais, greet-her first year French classes every day. “Bonjour, mademoiselle, answers the class. “Comment allez-vous ce matin?” “Tres bien, merci. Et vous? Instead of making his own notebook on “Home and Family , each student of the first year French classes bought a notebook, “Mon Cahier. Students of the second year classes struggled with subjunctives after verbs of wishing, commanding, opinion, negation, doubt, etc. They read a four act comedy entitled “Le Voyage de Monsieur Perrichon , the original translations of which were quite laugh-provoking, according to students in the neighboring Spanish room. A French newspaper, “I a Vie , was ordered and used by the students. Nincly-Klulit Curriculum CI.ASSnOOM PICTURE Top liow; These physics students surely make tuning' forks ring.

Ninety-Nine Curriculum COMMERCIAL SUBJECTS Formed in 1913, the commercial department has been growing steadily ever since. Four people graduated from the department the first year, in comparison with seventy-seven in 1932. In the last decade the number of teachers and equipment has doubled. One teacher taught all the shorthand, typewriting, and business English and one teachei the bookkeeping and commercial law, in 1920 when twenty-three people were graduated. Three full time teachers are now teaching seven periods each, and seven other teachers have commercial subjects included in their schedules. One hundred and forty-two students started novice typewriting, eighty began bookkeeping and seventy-seven, stenography in the fall of 1931. Forty more started bookkeeping in January, 1932. The commercial department includes seven business courses. Bookkeeping i-taught by Miss Gertrude Gaines and Mr. Ralph Betts; stenographer, or shorthand, by Miss Blanche McDonald and Miss Gaines. Miss McDonald and Miss Gaines also teach typewriting. The shorthand system has been changed three times. The Pittman and Graham systems have been used, but at present the Gregg system is taught. Commercial geography, a study of the countries of the world, their characteristics and products, is taught by Miss Hildur Marie Olson and Mr. E. B. Pendleton. Mr. Robert Ball also taught this the first semester. A study of advertising and the layout of a store, studied in retail selling, give? the student an idea of how the business man conducts his business on a paying basis. Miss Ethel Edwards is the instructor. Mr. Raymond W. Shade and Mr. Betts taught it the first semester. Mr. Betts and Mr. Ball teach commercial law, a subject which gives the student some knowledge of what to do in case his rights are infringed upon. Business English gives the pupil the knowledge necessary to write good business letters and to talk well. The teacher of this subject is Miss Jenny Lind Givens. Each person in the Senior Class of typewriting fills out a schedule card which is used in making up the office list. One pupil is put on office duty ?ach period, and serves for one week. While in the office he gets training in the regular routine of the business office. In typewriting, one day a week is devoted to speed work and the other four days to budgets and dictation. Dorothea Hubbard served as Mr. C. A. Meister’s secretary throughout the second semester in order to get experience as a private secretary; Margaret Zeitz served thi first semester. Dart Newspaper typists are chosen from the typewriting classes. Four people are chosen the first semester as newspaper typists, and four more are chosen to replace them on the- second semester staff. In order to gain experience in cutting stencils and operating the mimeograph pupils helped with the Arrow, a paper put out every six weeks by the pupils of State Road School. It has grown to a ten-page paper in the past five or six years. The first bookkeeping contest was held in 1930. It was just an experiment but it succeeded and has been held every year since then. First place in the sectional contest was won by Berniece Capps with William Stinchcomb receiving second place. Stanley Woofter was also entered in the sectional contest. Berniece and William entered the state contest in Bowling Green, Ohio. Berniece received a silver medal for first place in the section. In the 1931 contest Anna Sholtis took the second place medal in the state us well One Hundred Curriculum as the section. Louise Hoot and Doris Goodiel were also entered in the sectional contest held at West Technical High School in Cleveland, but were not eligible for the state contest at Bowling Green. By making a percentage of over 98, Eleanor Cimorell and William Stinchcomb earned the right to go to the state contest for novice shorthand. Eleanor also entered the sectional contest at West Technical High School at Cleveland. Her score was 95.26 per cent. The contestants wrote seventy words per minute for five minutes. MANUAL TRAINING Boys taking the manual training course begin their work by drawing a plan or pattern of their future projects. Sophomore drafting classes study elementary furniture designing. This includes cross-section drawings of joints and methods of constructing furniture. The work at first is very simple and each plan is gradually made more difficult, until the final piece is suitably designed for a senior wood problem. The desired piece is assembled from these details. This class is in charge of Mr. Lawrence Russell. Wooden patterns of machine parts and moulding lead castings from these patterns were made by the sophomore woodworking classes this year. The class instructor is Mr. Howard Eyerly. Mr. C. A. Meister's junior drawing classes work at machine designing. The model for this project is a five by six foot vertical steam engine. All parts of the engine are detailed by nine plates or drawings. Factory and quantity production was practised in the junior woodworking classes which are taught by Mr. Meister. Such equipment as eight science tables, a cabinet for the Chestnut Avenue School building, and two basketball bank boards for the Bunker Hill School were made. Senior drawing classes study architecture. Plans of housed were drawn. Drawings which pictured methods of assembly for wood-framed structures, and cross sections of wood and brick wall are made. Advanced students in this class constructed complete house plans. Mr. J. B. Kohut is the class instructor. Senior woodworking consisted of individual projects directed by Mr. Kohut. Each boy selects his own project and makes a drawing of it. The drawing is then checked by the instructor and the pupils proceed to construct the project. Those who made individual projects this year are Frank Ferguson, a library table inlaid with curly maple; Charles Lindsley. a floor lamp and a walnut kitchen table with a porcelain top; Olavi Rintamna, a walnut chest of drawers; Grant Rosen-steel and Donald Shumake, a walnut chifferobe. cedar-lined; Ray Bell, Joe Kiraly, and Omar Thorpe, each, a spinet desk; Harold Bennett, a piano bench; Robert Van Xbstrand, a replica old-Pendleton sideboard; Oscar Malin, candlesticks and several other small articles; Charles Teed, a tip-top table, with an inlaid center and carved pedestals; John Hoyt, a complete set of dining room chairs; Ralph Jeffers and Harold Rushton, a rowboat made of cypress wood; I eslie Johnson, Truman Eastlick, Ivan Garrison, each, a Priscilla sewing cabinet; Threlford Hannum, a China closet; Francis Sehlossler, a porch swing; Wesley Kellogg, a cedar chest; Warren Kellogg, a pedestal; George Giannell and Bernard Licate, set of kitchen cabinets; William Dunham, a walnut turned pedestal; Vincent Hoover, a music cabinet; Lewis Todd, a Queen Ann type mahogony secretary. One coach, built by Frank Ferguson, is to be entered in the Fisher Body Coach Contest. This work requires great accuracy and skill. It is under the supervision of Mr. Meister and Mr. Kohut. One Hundred One Curriculum SCIENCES As one ambled down the third floor hall of A. H. S., many startling sounds grw� ed his ears during the school year. Bells rang, whistles blew, the penetrating n • of a tuning fork pierced the air, and an occasional shriek, as some fair damsel con nected up with a static machine, was heard throughout the top floor. In physics, the pupils learned the “how and why of things in the physical world.” The subject is divided into five groups: machines, sound, heat, light, and e-• tricity, the study of which is carried on in both the classroom and laboratory. Ward Davenny, Virginia Johnson, and Ero Winnar did outstanding work the past year n physics. Two students, Leona Balia and Ann Louise Humphrey, assisted Mr. E. B Pendleton and Mr. Albert Wisner, the physics teachers. The biology students, although they worked as hard and performed equally amazing experiments, nevertheless performed their duties with less evidence to the outside world. Operations were performed on tadpoles, frogs, gold fish, and many things were discovered as a result. The course in chemistry is an elective one and only seniors or capable junior-are permitted to enroll. The Popular Science Monthly was the magazine used thi year for the study of current science. Outstanding students were Thomas Baker ami Olavi Rintamaa. Jane Cederquist was the laboratory assistant. The many expressions on the faces of the in-between-class crowds were probably caused by the odors released from the chemistry laboratory. What many thought to be the smell of rotten eggs from the lunch room was really the hydrogen sulfide made by the chemists. Germinating corn, beans and radishes in pocket gardens was a project carried out in the first semester biology class. This course is divided into two groups: she first semester plants are studied and the second semester, research regarding animal life. Collections of moths and butterflies were made the past year to show the dis-tinction between the two. Animal cells ranging from the living simple ameoba to the complicated forms o.' animal life including man himself were studied. The circulation in the tails of tadpole-and goldfish were examined under the microscope and compared to the circulation of the human body. This study is carried on through living and preserved specimens, charts, ami microscopic slides. Charts and drawings were made by the class. The work of Kathryn and Peggy Viverette was of exceptionally good quality. Mr. Pendleton’s assistants wert Juanita Daugherty and Alice Field. Botony, a study of plant and animal life, increases the student’s understanding of nature. The main project which enables the student to indentify and classify the plants, is the forming of a herbarium of twenty-five different species, together with learning the different parts of plants and their names. Students doing outstanding work were George Dubach and Marian Sturdevant. Contrary to popular belief the knowledge of raising and harvesting crops can be applied more than other subjects according to educators. The purpose of the class in agriculture is to show this science as the basic industry of the country. HISTORY History is the record of Man’s social, political, economical, and cultural developments since the earliest civilization. It enables one to connect the past with the present, revealing the influence of past events on the world today. To help increase the interest in the history classes, projects were carried out One Hundred Two Curriculum by each student. Book reports, map work, themes, oral assignments, and current events made up the routine of the pupils who ventured into this subject. Those who did superior work in ancient and modern history were Byron Ells-woith, Llewellyn Kvans, Wallace Feasler, Howard Hickock, Margaret Kelly, Robert Knierim, John Keren, Helen Long, Lucille Meaney, Nellie Tigal, and Gladys Whit-lenberger. History teachers are Miss Winifred Fay, Sociology and Ancient History; Miss Ruth Carlisle, Civics and American History; Miss Lavilla Phares, Ancient and Modern History; and Mr. R. B. St. John, Modern history, Civics and American History. HOME ECONOMICS Which dish to wash first, how to mend a hole, the number of calories that should be eaten in order to keep that school-girl complexion, are included in the home economics course at Ashtabula High School under the supervision of Miss Isabel Day and Miss Hildur Marie Olson. Home management, budgeting and family relationships were studied in the 11A classes. Each girl made a notebook of a model home, containing ideal house plans and pictures of interior furnishings. Problems pertaining to the home were brought up and discussed. Miss Day’s 8B and 8A classes made uniforms and undergarments and learned to prepare and serve breakfasts and luncheons. The survey course, taught by Miss Day, was taken by girls who had not had other home economic courses. This year the students made woolen dresses, coats, suits, spring dresses, and studied dietetics. Each selected an ideal home plan and kept a notebook, showing house furnishings to suit the individual taste. Preparation and service of breakfasts and luncheons were subjects studied by 9A classes. A wool problem was undertaken by the 10B classes, and each girl made a woolen dress or suit. Tenth grade classes had a silk problem, studied costume designing, textiles and dietetics. Eadh student made balanced diets to suit people of various ages and occupations. Health charts were kept and checked each day. All classes took part in making operetta costumes, and hot lunches were served to students during the winter months by the domestic science department. An exhibit of all work done by the girls was given during the last week of school. ART CLASSES Black silhouettes on white, costume drawings, dark silhouettes on light, light figures on dark colored paper. Community Fund posters, posters with panels for commercial advertising, Christmas cards, Star Beacon Milk Fund Benefit posters, decorative initial letters, still life paintings, and posters for the contest sponsored by the Ashtabula Chamber of Commerce are among the projects completed by the commercial art classes of Ashtabula High School. The art classes of the Ashtabula schools under the supervision of Miss Helen Mahoney are divided into two groups the two high school commercial classes, and the junior highs and the grade school. Laura Koski, a senior, and Peggy Viverette, a junior, were awarded first and second prizes respectively in the Milk Fund Benefit poster contest sponsored by the Star-Beacon. Members of the high school classes painted stage decorations for the operettas at Columbus and West Junior Highs. The public had opportunity to view work of the department at an exhibition in the window of the D. L. Davis Company and later the annual art exhibition was held in the spring, on the first floor of the high school, at which time the work of all the Ashtabula classes is displayed.

The semester after taking theory course, the class publishes the Dart Newspaper, the Ashtabula High School weekly. Darts, published from October to January, were sent to the National Scholastic Press Association, where they received All American Honor Rating. This year each member of the Staff has been assigned to a home room for the purpose of becoming acquainted with the students and to index such information about the pupils as could be used in the future news and feature stories. Contests PROHIBITION CONTEST Any high school junior or senior in the United States had the privilege of winning a trip to Washington, D.
