DA UT Presents 1937 1938 School Year Published by The Senior Class of Ashtabula High School Ashtabula, Ohio Editor: MILDRED WILLIAMS Business Manager: ROBERT BONNAR 'fokewold {TN '1M.V ; t lie first semester of the 1937-1938 school J year the local radio station began to operate and gradually it has become an institution of the com- munity. Much interest in the field is exhibited by the students and faculty of Ashtabula High School. The Thanksgiving Day football game and an assem- bly program the day before were broadcast by remote con- trol. I lie Dart of the Air originated in December, the Ashtabula City Schools broadcast in January. These two programs became regular features, and both students and faculty were presented through these media. Indi- vidual students with talent were on the air with their own programs, and various clubs sponsored shows. Considering these facts, it is appropriate that the staff has chosen radio as the theme of this book. Accord- ingly, we have divided our book into four major programs. First to parade before the microphone are the CLASSES. Imagining yourself in a world of television, you will “see” the Senior, Junior and Sophomore participants in this variety show. Next on the air are SPORTS, whose com- mentators will present a brief resume of the year’s ath- letics. Thirdly comes the ACTIVITIES program to sum- marize the extra-curricular functions of a modern school —activities which lend a zestful tang to school life. Last to appear at the book’s microphone are our sponsors—the citizens of Ashtabula who have graciously helped to make possible this 1938 Dart Yearbook. —The Editors. “Dedication 'o' (lie findings, achievements and the advancement 7 in the development of communication and to our forefathers, the courageous pioneers of the early days of the Northwest Territory who have fostered this progress, we of the 1988 Yearbook Staff gratefully dedi- cate this student publication. Telephone, cable and telegraph, forerunners of radio, introduced into this territory in the 1870’s, have become integral parts of our complicated system of communica- tion. Science's latest addition to this field has been the medium of radio. The perfection of this latest means is one of the most important factors in the capturing of criminals, the lessening of the hazards of disasters, and the close connections of the four corners of the world. Board of Education The board of education is a representative group of citizens providing contact between the people and the city school system. The board meets twice each month to transact the business of the schools. Mem- bers of the board are Robert Elder, President; E. B. Pendleton, Vice-President; George V. Sholtis, Clerk; Clyde L. Shaylor, Theodore E. Warren, and Superin- tendent M. S. Mitchell. This year one of the main projects of the board has been the installation of the lights at Bula field. This equipment is of the best quality and will stimu- late interest in varsity football and other open-air activities of the school. MR. MITCHELL Superintendent MR. ELDER President MR. SHAYLOR MR.

On one occasion Prime Minister Gladstone presented a bill to Queen Victoria in a manner which she resented. She said, “I am the Queen of England.” Gladstone replied, “I am the People of England.” In this same manner, the class of 1938 repre- sents Ashtabula High School, having spent three very important years of our lives in this institution; we are one year of school history. Eut what has been done? What is the heritage to be passed on to the Junior and Sophomore classes. In scholarship this class has excelled, with the upper third being ranked 83.75 per cent, and above. Thirty of the class also attained an average of 90 for the three-year honor roll. The leadership of the class was entrusted to James Egger, with Russell Robin- son, Vice-President; Duane Barney, Secretary; and Arne Erickson, Treasurer. Active in varsity sports, eleven seniors played varsity football and seven par- ticipated in inter-school basketball. The track team also boasted several members of the Senior class. Extra-curricular activities were well supported by the class. Special recognition is given the Rose of the Danube principals, who were Lois Anne Leach, John Kahe- lin, Robert Bonnar, Betty Jean Snyder, Robert Anthony, Marjory Klingler, Orlindo Giraro, and Walter Edwards. Other dramatists who commanded the leads of the Senior play are Viola Griswold. Elvera Koski, Margie Edixon, Russell Robinson, Stuart Schaffner, James Egger, Robert Bonnar, Ronald Adams, Joe Incorvia, Robert Capps, Carl Melina. So the Seniors pass the microphone in review. WE leave our Alma Mater with deep emotions. Let yours be the torch we have so jubilantly carried thus far. We have set a goal, a little in advance of the preceding class and have, in a large part, reached that goal. May you attain an even higher goal through your relentless ef- forts during your High School career. 35 J u N I O R S History Mr. and Miss Ashtabula High School from the rocky rooks of 29 to the balmy days of 23 and all those on the high seas of post graduate courses ! ! !

The Sophomore Class of A. H. S. presents to you, “The Little Theatre Off North Park.” Our cab is waiting! Won’t you step in! Down Center Street into the clang and clatter of automobiles which sur- rounds the seething mass of people on Main Avenue is the rising metropolis of Ashtabula. The lobby of the theatre is a mass of faces! Look! Aren’t these important looking people—Sophomore Senators?—Yes! it’s Eugene Aronhalt, Raymond Carper, Ned Dewey, James Hewitt, Mortimer Leggett, Jean Stout, Floi’ence Capitena, Marian Kane, and Thomas Whalen approaching the box office. Speaking of the box office the tickets for this performance are being sold by Jean Anderson, Patricia Cederquist, Mary Ehrenfeld, James Hill, Gertrude Podges, Mortimer Leggett, Betty Jean Spieth, Francis Beetham, James Foster, Marian Kane, Robert Schlafke, and Gordon Sneary, those Sophomore capitalists—the Homeroom Salesmen. My! My! Here come the officers of the Sophomore Torch Hi-Y, Mortimer Leggett, Pat O’Brien, Roger Yozzo, and Jack Warmington—and look whose with them! It’s none other than the officers of the Sophomore Girl Reserves, Rosella Warren, President; Gertrude Podges, Vice-President; Dona Marie Blakeslee, Treasurer; and Betty Lillis, County Council member. Will you look at those broad shoulders? Those Sophomore athletes, Ernest Dela Motte, Clarence Watters, John Dascoli, James Hewitt, Tom Whalen, Ralph Esposito, Al Rosso, Jack Warmington, Paul Elliot, Carl Kendall, Eugene Aronhalt, Emmett Johnson, and Lawrence Varsetti, the football men, have just stridden by.

Whoops! Some poor man has fainted—In case of emergency it’s the Junior Red Cross, Patricia Bachman, Sophomore, is Vice-President. She brings with her five able Sophomores, and they now have the situation well in hand. Do my ears deceive me? It’s a parade.

The out- look for the season was doubtful, but Mr. Guarnieri whipped the green squad into condition rapidly to meet a strenuous schedule. The season’s opener was played at Erie against Cathedral Prep. The Bulans came home that night proud owners of a five-touchdown victory with a final score of 31 to 0. The following week the Panthers journeyed again into the neighboring state, this time finding they weren’t welcome. The first spanking of the season 20 to 12 was administered by Meadville High after a terrific battle. Under Harbor lights Ashtabula inaugurated her league season by trouncing the Mariner’s 12 to 0. After six consecutive years of defeat at the hands of Conneaut the Panthers finally defeated the Trojans, the score being 20 to 7. The next week featured a Dad’s Day program with Ashtabula losing her first home game. The 14 to 0 loss, to Fairport, came on a sloppy rain-drenched field. Ashtabula utilized Wenner field for the next game and beat the lowly Wil- loughby Rangers 21 to 0. At Painesville, the Panthers suffered a 13 to 6 let down blasting her hopes for league championship. The Panthers engaged Geneva, League champions, early in November at Wen- ner field. The whole Bula team pointed for this contest and beat the Eagles by a lop- sided score of 38 to 7. It was the largest score run up on any league team last season. In the annual Turkey Day clash, the improved Harborites held the Black and Gold to a scoreless tie. The Panthers ended league hostilities in second place just one point behind potent little Geneva, champions for the first time in thirty years of competition. Thus another football season became history at Ashtabula. The 1937 football year might well be termed the slogan season. Such slogans as BEAT HARBOR, CAPTURE CONNEAUT, GET GENEVA, FLOP FAIRPORT, WALLOP WILLOUGHBY and PLASTER PAINESVILLE were announced by Mr. Gephart in pep assemblies and were made popular by the student body. Following the'season’s close All League teams were chosen. Three Ashtabula gridmen making this team were Peter Bernardo, tackle; Ralph Candela, guard; and Duane Barney, end; Barney also received the distinction of being voted the out- standing end in league play this season. Allen Naslund, center; Manuel Nappi, guard; and Robert Glaus, half-back; made the second team while Francis Talcott and Leroy Tyus, both backs, received honorable mention. After his outstanding leadership and superlative play all through the season, Duane Barney was chosen honorary captain of the 1937 squad. 4.5 IIASKETBAI.L TEAM TOP ROW: C. Watters, Mr. Rail, Ij.

As a nucleus for the team he had two letter- men: Arne Erickson, forward; and William Whalen, guard. However, Donald Farrone, Robert Gallup, John DiMare, Lynn Kelley, and Carmen Candela were back from the reserve team of the previous season. As the squad swung into action against the Alumni in the first contest of the season, the Varsity was composed of Whalen and Candela, guards; DiMare and Erick- son, forwards; with Holub and Farrone alternating at the center -post. On the first string reserve were Kelley, Gallup, Watters, and Santillo. The Varsity downed the old-timers in that first game by a 27-18 count. The following week Erie Academy journeyed here and was beaten by the Panthers in a rough contest by a score of 21 to 18. The next evening found the Bulans taking the measure of Euclid Shore High School, 34 to 31, by virtue of a fast finish. The contest was played at Euclid. While the school was enjoying Christmas vacation, the Ashtabula dribblers en- gaged the Geneva Eagles at Geneva and the Erie Academy Lions at Erie in a return game. The Panthers were nipped at Geneva by a single point, 28-27, in a hotly con- tested fray. The Academy Lions avenged their earlier defeat at the hands of Ashta- bula by winning the second game 28 to 20. After vacation the eagers met Fail-port at West Junior High. They emerged from the game with their first league win, 39 to 28. The following night the Panthers beat the Harbor Mariners 31 to 21. After two weeks, rest the locals met Painesville here and beat them, 34 to 22. Touring to Willoughby, the Black and Gold was once more victorious, trouncing the Ramblers 30 to 18. On successive nights the Panthers played the Geneva Eagles and Fail-port. On Friday the locals avenged an early defeat by taking Geneva 25 to 10. However, Saturday night the Skippers stopped the Ashtabulans, 31 to 28, thus smashing their chances for the league pennant. The next contest was played between Ashtabula and Warren at West High. War- ren defeated the Panthers 22 to 15. This defeat was attributed to poor shooting. Willoughby took vengeance on the locals the next week by winning 21 to 19. However, the Panthers went to Painesville the following night and won, 24 to 19, thus cinching second place in the league standings. In the N. E. O. tournament, Ashtabula advanced as far as the second round by again defeating the Red Raiders, but Geneva laced the Panthers in the second round and another basketball season was concluded. 47 COACH ST. JOHN 1937 Track Activities With the first dual meet only a month away and facing the problem of building an almost entirely new team, Coach Raymond B. St. John assembled hi.s Ashtabula High forces for indoor drills. Fifty candidates reported, among them four lettermen_ Frances Talcott, Ralph Candela, and Manuel Xappi. The new track season got under way with the annual interclass meet. Records fell in all directions as the Junior tracksters won the meet by a goodly margin, the Sophomores finishing second. The first dual meet took place in Erie, April 24, with the Panthers facing a crack Erie Academy squad. The big town boys completely overwhelmed the young inexperienced Ashtabulans by a score of 120 to 17. The Mentor Relays came early in May. The Black and Gold thinclads took third place in this meet, which was won by Euclid Shore, Painesville taking .second. In a dual meet held May 8 at Bula field, Ashtabula nipped Geneva 73 to 60. The following week a triangular meet was held at Wenner field, the con- testants 'being Ashtabula, Harbor, and Erie Academy. Ashtabula was again out- classed by Erie Academy, and Harbor finished second. The Ninth Annual Lake Shore League track meet was won by the Red Raiders of Painesville wdth Ashtabula, defending champions, bringing up the rear. To end tiack activities for 1037, Coach St. John conducted a decathlon for members of the team. This is something new in the line of track at Ashtabula. Francis Talcott was the winner and Monroe Doyle took second place honors. Winners of first and second places were presented medals for their distinction. Lettermen of the 1937 squad are Francis Talcott, John Kahelin, Ralph Candela, Paul Kahelin, James Fortune, Lynn Kelley, Howard Moore, Monroe Doyle, Louis Fleming, and Richard Mills, Manager. Only two of the boys, James Fortune and Howard Moore, were Seniors. 48 TRACK TEAM TOP ROW—Leroy Tyus, William Crowell, Monroe Doyle, Richard Callahan, As- sistant Coach; Mr. St. John, Coach; Mathew Kangas, Trainer; John Kahelin, Jerry Wood, Paul Kahelin.

In order to earn a football letter a player must play in one third of the total number of quarters. The following boys earned their “A” for playing football: Duane Barney, all league end who was chosen honorary captain of the 1937 team. Robert Glaus, earner of two football letters, sometimes known as the work horse halfback. Peter Bernardo, who won two football letters and was all league choice at tackle. Ralph Candela, star performer at guard post for two seasons, chosen as all league guard. Alvin Kippen, half-back and excellent passer, who performed (best in the Wil- loughby game. Andrew Cherney, tall and lanky, who earned his major “A” by his play at center. Carl Melina, 185 pound husky who was a hard playing tackle. As in football, to receive a basketball letter, one'must play in at least one third of the quarters. The following are basketball lettermen: William Whalen, all league guard, honorary captain of 1937-38 squad excellent floor captain, earned two letters. Arne Erickson, two year letterman, who always displayed coolness at foul line and played either center or forward. Donald Farrone who earned his letter at center and forward posts. John Di Mare, scrappy fast breaking forward and a consistent high scorer floor Carmen Candela’ hard P yingr guard who was a dead shot from any part of the Robert Gallup, fast, hard fighting team player. A trackster may earn his letter in one of three ways: by making one point in a district meet, 10 points in dual meets or 3 points in the league meet. The thinclads who earned letters are: John Kahelin who gained the necessary points in the relays and broad jump. 50 Francis Talcott, a dominant figure in 100, 220, 440, and broad jump events for three years, decathlon winner; football letterman, Varsity half-back. Lynn Kelley, earned Varsity track letter in relay events; basketball letterman, guard. Paul Kahelin, awarded a winged “A” for his performances in relay and distance events, also received football letter by starring as a fullback. Manuel Nappi, who earned Varsity letters in track and football. Two year football letterman playing guard. Donald Corlett won his A’s by virtue of leading the A. H. S. cheering section for three years. Intramurals The horseshoe, golf, and tennis tournaments were created in order to allow opportunity for more boys and girls to engage in good sports. Approximately thirty boys and faculty members entered in the horseshoe tournament last fall under the direction of Mr. R. B. St. John. Many close duels were waged in both the singles and doubles although rain and cold weather prevented the matches from being completed beyond the third round. The golf tournament began with sixteen boys responding to the challenge made by Mr. J. R. McElroy. The tournament was played on the Lake Shore Goif course. Robert Orsuto, a senior of homeroom 27, played with such great skill that he defeated all his opponents in four straight victories. This was accomplished despite the serious threats of Calvin Glaus and Carmen Candela, who were eliminated in the third and fourth rounds respectively. The most interest taken in any sports of the intramurals, except basketball, has been that in the tennis tourney of which Mr. J. R. McElroy is the adviser. Thirty- seven pupils entered, including Mary Gerrety, winner of the women’s division of the Star-Beacon Tourney, and many others. In all, the netters last year appeared better than those of previous years. Ashtabula High School in order to find an outlet for mental and physical relaxation for the students has for the past several years sponsored and made pos- sible intramural games of basketball. This year volley ball has been introduced in the high school as a new intramural event by Directors of Intramural Games R. B. St. John and Julius McElroy. The volley ball games were to provide recreation during the noon hour for the large number of boys who carried their lunches to school. During each noon both courts were in use and each team played a two-out-of three set to decide the winner of the match. In the new intramural game of volley ball, there were many in- teresting and close games played between the various homerooms with undefeated Senior homei-oom 2.3 receiving the volley ball crown. By defeating 24B, room 23 won the Senior crown while room 35 defeated 38 for the Junior Championship and homeroom 29 defeated 26 to clinch the Sophomore race. In the semi-final room 23 won easily over the Junior homeroom 35. This gave them the right to play the Sophomore champs to decide the school Championship. Room 23 won over Room 29 by the scores of 21-2 and 21-10. The players on the championship team were, Edward Candela, Manager, John DiMare, Captain, Dominic Catano, Carmen Candela, Andrew Cherney, and Arne Erickson. Now we turn to intramural Basketball and give you a few of the highlights. The boys’ basketball games were followed closely by Iboth students and faculty members with great enthusiasm. This year’s intramural basketball schedule was well arranged (Continued on Page 52) 51 BOVS I TH A 11 It A I. I1ASKKTBAM.

Girls' Intramurals Intramural volleyball opened the girls’ sport season early in November. The games were played on Mondays and Wednesdays after school. It was arranged so that the team which scored the most points in an allotted 20 minutes won the game. The Sophomores of room 29-C captured the volleyball title by defeating the Junior champs of room 32. The following girls were on the winning team: Margaret Vetter, Rita Rebera, Violet Ucciferri, Helen Horvath, Lucy Smith, Rosella Warren, Evelyn Huffman, LaVon Luce, Beatrice McGriff, and Edna Nassief. After the Christmas recess the basketball tourney began. Louise Eller and Dorothy Cleveland served as referees while Mildred Williams and Marjorie Klingler acted as score-keepers. The Junior team from room 35 succeeded in winning the championship when they defeated the seniors of room 21. Those who played for room 35 were: Frances Macy, Marian Luce, Marilynn Lyon, Irene Keyerato, Alice Erickson, Ingrid Lahti, and Marilynn Mallory. This year as a special gymnastic feature the Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior girls’ gym classes under the supervision of Miss Christine Baumgardner presented a May Day festival. A queen and her court were elected by the student body. Each of the classes presented a special form of entertainment to please the queen and her court. The Freshmen gave exhibitions of tumbling acts, the Sophomores presented calisthenics, and the Juniors exhibited a group of folk dances. The finale consisted of the traditional winding of the Maypole by the Seniors. The festival proved to be a colorful climax for the girls’ sport events of 1938. 53 GIRLS' BASKETBALL GIRLS BASKKTBALL CHAMPS—HOAIRROOH a. � TOP ROW: Alice Krickson, Irene Kereyarto.

The Ashtabula Chapter of the National Honor Society of Secondary schools was organized in 1927. The emblem of the society is the keystone with a flaming torch. The four prin- ciples of the society are inscribed on the four corners of the keystone—the initials C. S. L. S.—which stand for character, scholarship, leadership, and service. Not more than 15% of the Senior class membership or more than 5% of Juniors may be elected. These are chosen from the upper third of scholastic ratings. The following were chosen this year: Robert Anthony Jean Long Robert Bonnar Lois Butler Robert Capps James Egger Robert Gallup Leona Goodell Viola Griswold John Kahelin Lynn Kelley Lois Kittinger Elvera Koski Jennie McCready DeForest Metcalf Richard Mills Marjorie Mitchell Lucille Pardee Helen Pfeifer Russell Robinson Stuart Schaffner Ruth Shoppart Donald Tuomi Louise Ward 60 QUILL AND SCROLL To reward the efforts of high school journalists the Quill and Scroll was organ- ized in 1926. Seniors of Ashtabula High who do superior work in editing the Dart are each year admitted to this society. The Erie Hopwood Chapter founded in 1927 is the Ashtabula group. The mem- bers are approved by the National Secretary-Treasurer. Of the first semester DART staff, thirteen members were admitted to the society as follows: Robert Bonnar Lois Butler Viola Griswold Lois Kittinger Elvera Koski Jean Long Richard Mills Marjorie Mitchell Lucille Pardee Russell Robinson Gladys Swanson Louise Ward Mildred Williams 61 senate: TOP HOW: Thomas Reynolds, Mortimer Lessen.

The officers elected for the first venture of the Junior Red Cross were presi- dent, Lynn Kelley; vice-president, Patricia Bachman; and Secretary-Treasurer, Elvera Koski. Members were chosen on the basis of one delegate from each room, either elected or appointed. These made up the council. Under the advisership of Miss Hazel Beckwith and Miss Jane Bachman, the association got off to a flying start with an assembly conducted 'by the group. Later in the year, Elvera Koski, acting as delegate from Ashtabula, attended a State convention in Columbus and Elvera Koski, Lynn Kelley and Thomas Reynolds attended a meeting in Akron. Two of the more interesting projects of the year, which aroused great interest, were the packing of Christmas boxes for the County Infirmary and the making of place cards for the Hospital patients at Easter. But the highlight of the season pre- sented itself in a county mass meeting of the Junior Red Cross members on Saturday, March 26. High School acted as hosts. The Junior Red Cross has constituted a practicable program, one that was simple and at the same time well rounded, one that has not burdened teacher, pupil or school, but, on the contrary, has added interest and value to their work.

The Band One of the mast active organizations in the school is the Band. This group has played at football games in all kinds of weather, at basketball games, and in many parades throughout the year. It has also given concerts over WICA and in several schools in the city. I o be admitted to the High School Band one must have been a previous mem- ber of a Junior High School band, and have passed a test. In order for a member to merit the black and gold felt award, he must be a Junior or Senior, attend rehearsals regularly, and must play at any entertainment when requested by the school authorities. In the fall a Brass Sextet with Tympani was formed. The members of this organization were Robert Sprentall, Trumpet; Norman Thompson, Cornet; Robert Matson, French horn; Melbourne Metcalf, French horn; Mary Frances Piper, Baritone horn; Robert Olix, Susaphone; and Robert Capps, Tympani. The officers of the band for this school year were President, Cosmos Pavolino; Vice-President, Robert Sprentall; and Secretary-Treasurer, Mary Frances Piper. For the third year the Band has been under the dirction of Mr. Ward Hamm who has put forth much effort and time in making the band a success. Mr. Hamm is a graduate of Findlay Academy, Findlay, Ohio, and of the Patrick Conway Military Band School of the Ithaca College of Music, Ithaca, New York. 88 Dart Calendar Time relentless time, continues upon its flight and here we are about to grad- uate with diplomas on life. So let’s see a bit of life in a brief (the briefer the better) resume of Ashtabula’s brain children. Dipping into the dumplings of the past comes our first plumb. September—the days when you and I were young McGee—way back when there were the boys who bumkled around like a lot of bleached porpoises under their Bogs hair cuts until the drop in temperature forced them to grow their annual winter fur coats. Oh yes, and the recollections of those three campus pests, (and of those three, Gerome, Talcott and Cummin.s)the screwiest was Cummins—and Sep- tember passed on into its well deserved rest. October, lovely with the russets, aukwins, and saffrons of autumn, glided by life turned muddy, black and bluish, and grisly for those dextorous sons of A. H. S. —the pigskin carriers. So under the influence of a chronic but artlstocratic enthus- iasm, we with gusto even out-gustoed the Harborites in our ‘'Beat Harbor” slogan; that was the-slogan-a-week-time. Meanwhile, our budding play “wits,” Arne Erick- son and Stu McGoo Schaffner, were busily grinding out “melodramers” for the amusement of the student body. The dark cloud of exams, with its untidy edges, rose massively to blot out the rosy tints of our carefree school life and to give us all short-circuited nervous svr-tems. Came the Big Apple and Ernie Getsey to lead us through slightly soiled shags into cyclone dithers at the Booster Club dance. That half chicken struggle was magnificent and well done under the control of wary faculty eyes. So we ushered out November headed by our “Victory Queen,” Ruth Fortune. Came Christmas and there was Ray Topper looking like a strawberry dipped in whipped cream emanating Christmas presents at the Hobby Club party. Every- bodv undulated good cheer like lazy snakes in the .sun, for it was the mistle toe “seiyin.” As the dentist said to his patient, “Relax please”—so boy, how we relaxed for two weeks. But as all good things come to an end so vacation jiltered into January and we were back embedded in our home room seats again. Then we entered the season where everyone died but just walked around to save funeral expenses. Let’s see that was the time of exams when we didn’t know, the teachers knew we didn’t know, but we hoped they didn’t know why we didn’t know. Whew! that was a lot of knowledge getting nowhere. With a cyclone of chance we passed and so a new semester. Ah. but basketball had rounded itself into a lithe Panther squad and soon we were throwing vocal cords out of place cheering our team on to victory. February and the signs of approaching spring began to cast somewhat longer shadows. The ground hog in us showed a few symptoms of coming forth from its hibernation and the “Will-you-be-mine?” day arrived. With the coming of “smile now and look orettv” we succumbed in dreary and hushed obeisance to the grisly terror behind the camera. Ah. but after we took a brief but constitutionally reluctant glimpse at those scoops, some of us felt as though any decent garbace can would be ashamed to have us found in it, Alors! February contained only 28 days and we slid into March. The Yodiac sign for March is Pisces, the fish signifying some of us trying to wet bv en as little work as possible. This year March didn’t do its usual Dr. Jekyl- Mr. Hvde act. but staved with us a balmy, bouncing lamb. The Operetta cast began to nironette and prance; life was just a song during the fourth and sixth periods. Meanwhile for our office girl. Maxine, it wasn’t iust a joy of meditation and day dreaming, for surrounded and piled high by Senior averages, things looked pretty melancholy. What with Junior-Senior and Senior brawls, not to mention new Graduate and Baccalaureate duds, life shows great promise of becoming an impecunious blank as we go to press. In the spring it’s great to be alive and we’ll leave it there—you know the rest of our colorful history. The year may have subtracted or added to our birth of knowledge: we have had some headaches and unexpected experiences together. Soon the doors of A. H. S. will snap at our heels and we’ll put our books back into their holsters. They say you can’t take it with you. but we sav you can, at least, some pretty, swellegant remi- niscensc.s. So enough of our recollections and we leave you with a “thanks for the memory.” 89 Engravings PUn if Canton offers you more than high quality engrav- ings.

IN these days of changing conditions, business expects young people to enter their new activities with en- thusiasm and a readiness to capitalize on all previous training. For some boys and girls, high school is a stepping- stone to college; for many, it leads directly to the world of business. In either case high school students should now affiliate with a strong bank that will assist in the building of their future. The bank can help them sys- tematize their financial affairs and accumulate reserve funds. A welcome awaits these young people at The Farmers National Bank .
