It has a big chim-ney which al-most touches the clouds, and two stone lamps on top. They do not give light thoughg they are just or-na-ments. The big children go here. There is a real swimming pool with hot or cold Water, and a big au-di-to-ri-um and gym-na-si-um. Cen- tral High even has a kitch-en Where the girls cook real meals. It has three lab-o-ra-to-ries, Where the stu-dents ex-per-i-ment to prove things. They are for bi-ol-o-gy Cthat's the study of live thingsj, chem-is-try fthat's studying what things are made ofj, and phys-ics Cthat's learning how things hap-penj. All the cit-i- zens and pupils of Bellevue are very proud of this building. 10 BOARD OF EDUCATION NEXT WE MAY SPY W. C. HENRY O. C.

It has sunny rooms for the chil-dren who live in the south part of the city. They have ice-cream so-cials and other good times at this school. The younger chil-dren who live in the east part of the city first learn the three R's at the McKim School, which has pleas-ant rooms and a nice playground. The Pike School stands facing busy West Main Street Where many trucks and au-to-mo-biles pass it daily. Back of this school are swings and slides, and the foot-ball field for the big boys from high school. The Junior High School is the fine old build-ing which stands beside the Central High School. It has its own au-di-to-ri-um, and in its re-mod-eled base-ment the pupils' bi-cy-cles are kept out of the rain and snow. The boys and girls who are not old enough to be in high school go here. BUILDINGS FINE WE HERE DESCRY 13 f IS FOR THE SENIOR CLASS Once upon a time, four long years ago, a group of excited, bright-eyed boys and girls, just like you, my children, entered Bellevue High School. They were called freshmen and their fa- vor-ite color was green. They were so tiny that many of the larg- er children stepped on them and pushed them about, but the lit-tle freshmen were too small to do anything about it. They did not know what they wanted to be when they grew up, but they were glad they were on their Way. Soon they began to choose their own spec-ial kinds of toys. Some took funny looking horns and drums, others liked playing outdoors with pig-skins filled with air, and still others, mostly girls, took a great liking to spoons and knives in the home e-co- no-mics de-part-ment, for this was just like playing house. So the children grew. The next September they were called soph-o-mores, A new toy was added to their array this school term - a won-der-ful drum corps with shiny gold bugles, little red drums, and gay red capes.

But still the youngsters grew and grew, just like Al- ice in the rabbit hole. When they began the school year of 1934-1935, they were jun- iors and almost grown up. They chose their class jew-el-ry and were happy as kings to be able to wear the beau-ti-ful rings and pins. In Feb-ru-ary they held a pa-tri-ot-ic dinner-dance and loaded their guests with many goodies. Later on that year they gave a won-der-ful party for their big friends, the seniors of '35. This they called the J unior-Senior Re-cep-tion. And still the boys and girls grew and grew and grew, almost like Jack the Giant Killer's wonderful bean stalk. In Sep-tem-ber of 1935 the height of their glory was reached, for they had become mighty seniors. Of course, children, you know that means they are the oldest students in the school and are the wisest and most dig-ni-fied and most busy people here. All through the year they tried to be big brothers and sisters ON TO YOU THEIR TALE THEY PASS 15 IVI EANS CLASS OF TI-IIRTY-SIX to the little folks and tried to help them put some of their stumb- ling blocks in straight lines. But it is hard to grow up too fast, and so on Oc-to-ber 29, with dolls and bal-loons and all-day suck-ers, Shirley Temple dresses, hair ribbons, and socks, they played together at a jolly kid party. That was just the be-gin-ning. In the spring these seniors were the busiest people you ever saw-with an op-er-et-ta, and another gay junior-senior reception fthey were guests this timel, and a class play. and a party, and a music fes-ti-val, and all the rest of the thrill-ing things that seniors find time to do. Then on June 4 came the most ex-cit-ing moment of all. At the Com-mence-ment ex-er-cis-es they were given im-pres-sive 1936 Class Colors: Blue and Golcl Class Flower: Talisman Rose Class Motto: Enter to Learn, Go Forth to Serve looking little books called di- plo-mas. These show that they have been grad-u-ated from Bellevue High School. If you promise you Won't tell, children, We shall Whis- per you a secret. Well, we have pretty good proof that several of the seniors cried when they were graduated. They must have en-joy-ed their time at Central High, WORKA DPLAYTHEYI TER IX ARCHER, JACK-Always Around 4 Studi-nl Advisory Stuff 13 Fl'l.'Slllllilll liaslcetball 1: Ilzuul 1, 2: lu-survu l-iuslwtbzill 2, I-Iistorinn 23 Foot- bnll Il, -lg Crimson 'Frnuln-rs 3, -15 Class Play 4.

THE TAILOR-MADE MAN 26 JUNIOR-SENIOR RECEPTION Last spring when the class of 1936 were juniors, they gave a party for the seniors of '35. For the re-cep-tion they changed the gym into a cool, mossy garden. Branches of flowers covered the Walls. Everywhere were fra-grant Iilacs. The ceiling, covered with long streamers of rose and pink, lav-en-der and yellow paper moss, made the room look like fairy-land. Colored lights played on the long swirl-ing gowns as the dancers moved in rhythm to the popular dance tunes. This year the juniors kept the plans for the annual party a deep, dark secret till the long an-tic-i-pated night. The only hint was in the in-vi-ta-tions, made in the shape of min-i-a-ture gui- tars. At last, on the evening of May 15, the seniors found them- selves in the de-light-ful at-mos-phere of sunny Spain. Cacti, tile roofs, and adobe walls caught one's eye. Pretty se-no-ri-tas Cthat means Spanish ladiesl strolled about amid brilliant flowers. Dash- ing young senors in gay attire escorted the senoritas. En-ter-tain-ment was pro-vide-d by Spanish dances, and by a bull-fight that seemed almost real. Because it was such a spe-cial oc-ca-sion the guests danced until twelve o'clock. Pretty late for growing young-sters, but everyone enjoyed it. DOINGS EXCITING . . . RECEPTIGN IN MAY 27 IS FOR EACH SENIOR DATE When June comes, every single senior is happy because then come two im-por-tant days which he has long been a-wait-ing. First there is the Baccalaureate service. This very big word tal- most too long for readers of primersj really means the last for- mal fare-well given to the grad-u-at-ing class. It is the name of the special Sunday evening service held in honor of the boys and girls who are soon to graduate. Down the aisles of the auditor- ium they march in two long lines, to listen to sol-emn music and an in-spir-ing sermon. BACCALAUREATE SERVICE May 31, 1936 Processional, March Romaine-Gounod . . .

Patton, who is what the grown-ups call a su-per-in-tend-ent. All big schools have one. He is the man who tells the students, and the teach-ers, too, what to do and when to do it. This is a big job, for there are 1267 pupils and 41 teach-ers in the Bellevue schools. Much of Mr. Patton's time is spent in making our schools among the best in the state. He plans new courses and re-or-gan- izes old ones 5 he helps the teach-ers write in-ter-est-ing work booksg he makes plans for new books and new e-quip-ment. No wonder the boys and girls like school better, and learn more, each year. Mr. Patton is a friend of the boys and girls. He insists that they do what is right, and is always ready to help them. The school buildings and ii-nan-ces fthat means the moneyj also have his skill-ful care. Mr. Patton is almost an hon-or-a-ry mem-ber of the senior class because he became superintendent in Bellevue at the same time that the seniors began as freshmen. 35 EVER READY TG ADVISE ALFRED ROSS Principal Mr. Alfred Ross is the prin-ci-pal of the high school where the biggest boys and girls go. He sees that they get their lessons and mind their teachers. He tells them kind-ly and firm-ly what it is that they have done wrong. Usually they don't do it a sec- ond time. They are will-ing to do what Mr. Ross says, be-cause they know that he wants to help them. You see, Mr. Ross acts just like a father to these big children. In his of-fice he has a cab-in-et where he keeps the rec-or-ds of all the pu-pils so that he knows about every single one. He asks them what they would like to be when they grow up, and then he tells them what they should study in school in order to do it. He Works all summer Cwhile you are having a va-ca-ti-onl getting the sched-ule ready for the high school. In fact, When- ever there is anything to be or-gan-ized in the high school, Mr, Ross sees that it is done. Besides all this he teaches a class in phys-ics. What a busy man he is! 36 IN These two young ladies work in the big office next to Mr. Patton's private one. They type and take dic-ta-tion an-d do all sorts of im- portant jobs around the school. Miss Alma Spayd is the clerk of the School Board and is secretary to Mr. Patton. Miss Helen Euler is Miss Spayd's as-sis-tant. Their office is always a Very busy place. Even in this picture you see some of their many files and machines. When the photographer snap- ped this picture, Miss Spayd had been working in the big ledger which you see open on her desk. She paused long enough to look up a schedule card in the drawer she has opened. Miss Euler has just answered the telephone.

This or-gan-i-za-tion fthat is just another name for the clubj has high ideals. That means that the mem-bers try very hard all the time to be just as good as they can and to be kind and helpful to others. Just think, one hundred and one girls belong to the club. So many were eager to join that they had to be di-vid-ed into two groups. If you look very closely at the pictures, you will see that in each one is a pleas-ant young lady. That is Miss Mary Cooper, the faculty ad-vis-er. Four other ladies, called coun-se-lors, help her: Mrs. W. C. Henry, Mrs. R. T. Nye, Mrs. J. G. Odgers, an-d Miss Mary Ryan. The club has many good times. Last fall fthe season, not the kind that hurtsj right after school began, all the girls, bub-bling over with ex-cite-ment, hiked out to a woods for a nose-bag hunt. Then one night in De-cem-ber fthat's the month that brings Santa Claus, you knowj all the Girl Reserves put on nice white dresses and se-ri-ous ex-pres-sions fwhich means they did not think of playingj and Went to the candle light re-cog-ni-tion ser- vice. The girls felt like dancing and skipping inside, because they took over fifty new members into the club. In J an-u-ar-y the Girl Reserves and the Hi-Y boys held a joint meeting at the Y. M. C. A. to hear Dr. Slutz, of Dayton. During the year other speakers also talked to the girls. In the spring everybody could hardly wait for the an-nu-al cel-e-bra-tion called the Mother and Daughter ban-quet. The ta- bles were decorated and loaded with good food, just as when you have company at home. Then, after the dinner, the new ofiicers were in-stalled for the coming year. Of course, you know that like all big societies, the Girl Re- serves have of-fi-cers who all together are called the cab-i-net Cnot made of wood like a kitch-en cabinetj In the senior club Betty Sliter is president, Althea Kern, vice-president, Margaret Frost, secretary, Jean Greenslade, treasurer, Joyce Englund, program chairman, Betty Kemp, social chairman, and Marjorie Cloud, social-service chairman.

The club is planned to help high-school boys extend through- out the school and com-mu-ni-ty high stand-ards of Christian character. The members have a platform, too. This does not mean a stage, but a set of rules or plans. Fine ones they are too: clean speech, clean schol-ar-ship, clean ath-let-ics, and clean liv- ing. The boys often have talks and dis-cus-sions about these four C's The Hi-Y club of Bellevue is divided into two groups. The senior di-vi-sion fthis isn't arithmetici is made up of the bigger and older boys, in all, thirty-six juniors and seniors. Their pic- ture is at the bottom of the opposite page. fThat means the one right straight across.J That dig-niiied gentleman in the center of the pic-ture is the oldest boy of the club. You all recognize him as Dr. H. K. Shu- maker, the adviser of the Senior Hi-Y. All of the members think of him as a coun-se-lor, big brother, and friend, all rolled up into one. The other boys at the table are the officers Cno, not police- men.J These boys are Richard Gahn, president, Ray Middles- vvarth, vice-president, Ernest Widner, secretary, and Donald Hasselbach, treasurer. The picture of the Junior Hi-Y club is right above the sen- ior one. This group has twenty-six of the little tots from the freshman and soph-o-more classes of Central High. Their leader is the busy Y. M. C. A. di-rec-tor, Mr. H. W. Crawmer. The jun- ior club has the same high ideals as the older group, and Mr. Craw- mer teaches them the first prin-ci-ples of char-ac-ter. The junior officers are: Paul Rempe, president g Clair Bar- nard, vice-presidentg Tom Shannon, secretary, and Jimmy White, treasurer. Both clubs combine in many of the Hi-Y programs, such as a 44 JUNIOR HI-Y SENIOR HI-Y .Il'Nl0lK Ill-Y TDI'--.lm-:Ln Hl'llIll'li, John Marlin. l'lH'll'llq'S Riclnircls, Robe-rf ln-nnis.

One important combined meetins was on March 1 when the club members played preacher for a day, for they were in charge of a service at the Methodist Church. The program con- sisted of Hi-Y boys talking on the four C's of the platform and other members playing musical in-stru-ments for special numbers. HIGH IDEALS IT DOES PROCLAIM INTERIVIISSIONS FOR I---ASSEMBLIES SUPPLY Everyone is glad when it comes time for the weekly INTER- MISSION when the pupils of the two high schools meet for an as- sem-bly in the big au-di-to-ri-um. There were over thirty-five fine pro-grams this year! Here you see pic-tures of a few of the speakers and mu-si-cians. The man with the bushy hair is Harold Eide, who told of his ex-cit-ing ad-Ven-tures at Spitzbergen in the Arctic. Next you see Petrie's White Hussars, all dressed in white satin with lots of gold braid ep-au-lets. How they could play on the brass horns! At the right is Professor Williams of Heidelberg, who gave good ad- vice. In the next row you see J ack Raymon, who talked about snakes. He must be a very brave man because he let great, big ones twist themselves around his neck. The doll house, tiny stove, and e-lee-tric iron in the next picture were not toysg instead they taught the pupils not to play with Ere. The last picture shows C, Warner Williams an-d the bas-relief he made of our Georgeanna's head. Besides these, the boys and girls es-pe-cial-ly liked the el-e- phant story of Channing Beebe, the mel-o-dies of the Plantation Singers, and the organ chimes of the Brown-Menely Duo. 46 Q hcl .-1-..i...-. lil LESSON THR Is for the Junior class, Distinguished and renownedg N Throughout the World .i.l-1- Is for our many Klubs 5 f Forgiveness we implore We'll do it nevermore.

EE Gu J IS FOR THE JUNIOR CLASS Just as soon as a stu-dent has been in high school three years, he is called a jun-ior. This does not mean that his name is the same as his father's. It means he is an up-per-class-man and has more priv-i-le-ges than the pupils who have been in school only one or two years. All the boys and girls on the fol-low-ing pa-ges are jun-iors. This jun-ior class has stu-dents that ex-cel in many dif-fer-ent ae-ti-vi-ties. Five of the boys re-ceived big white let-ter B's for learn-ing how to carry a ball shaped like a pe-can up and down a field with white lines on it. Oth-er mem-bers of this class learned to throw a ball through a hor-i-zon-tal hoop with a net on it bet- ter than the boys from any other school in the Lit-tle Big Five. Oth-ers take part in run-ning, jump-ing, and throw-ing, oth-er- wise called track. Oth-er jun-iors know how to blow through queer-ly shaped pieces of shin-ing met-al to make music, or they beat with wood-en sticks on round con-trap- tions called drums. There-fore you may be sure that any-one Wear-ing a ring with a '37 can well be proud of it. The whole class Went naut-i-cal at the Star-board Shuffle, and all the guests dined and danced as they were cruising on the J. S. S. Merrytime.

Keen-eyed boys and girls who have joined the SCIENCE CLUB did so in order to learn all about the new things in this big, wide, won-der-ful world of ours. Their ad-vis-er, Mr. Herbert Wolfe, is a very good chemist. He knows how to put this and that together and then! Pfui! you have something else. He also can tell the members about many other sciences. The members themselves discuss their hobbies or give talks Cgrown-ups call them reportsj about the newest in-ven-tions and ex-per-i-ments. In the picture on top of the opposite page you see all the members listening to an explanation. It certainly must have been interesting because every one is watching closely. Q X X The officers of the Science Club are: Joseph Sweet, presi- dent, Milton Zimmerman, vice-president, J oan Rita Calienni, sec- retary, and Marshall Bollenbacher, program chairman. David Stahl and Tom Shannon assist Marshall in planning the meetings. The second picture shows the MECHANICS CLUB which be- gan this year. It may sound like a boys' club, but it is not al-to- gether so. Several girls joined and sent the bashful boys behind the machinery to recover from their amazement at the efforts of these young ladies to work with saws and hammers and lathes. Later, however, the boys gra-cious-ly helped the girls to learn to use the machinery. As you see in the picture, there are still more boys than girls in the club. Everyone is busy on his own project and now the boys seem hardly aware of the fem-i-nine members working back in the corner. The club members have made model air-planes, 52 SCIENCE CLUB MECHANICS CLUB Sl'IlfJNl'l-I l'Llill-Jam:-s Amlrvws, .In-:ui lim-llnrd.

OWLEDGE and PLEASURE IVIAINTAINING N KLUB, I-IOIVIEMAKERS, IS RIGHT HERE Kandy, kakes, and kookies are what all children love. The HOMEMAKERS CLUB is made up of those girls who like to cook and sew. They are glad that Miss Shaw, who is their adviser, gives them many good ideas about house-keep-ing. On the next page you will find two pictures of the club. The lirst is a scene in the cloth-ing lab-or-a-to-ry, where many of the gay cos-tumes worn in the op-er-et-tas are made. Some of these girls are making dresses for themselves now. In the second picture you can see the girls stirr-ing de-lic-ious home-made candy which they sold at the Junior High operetta, or perhaps they may be pre-par-ing a de-lect-able lunch for the club 'members Some of the girls act as cooks, others are wait- ress-es, while still others act as host-ess-es. The two laboratories in which these girls work are really much larger than they appear in the picture. The girls were very busy that day, but they crowded together just long enough for the pho-tog-ra-pher the is the man who took their picturej to put them all in these scenes for you. The club is divided into two groups, the Junior and Senior.

BUSY GIRLS THEY ALL APPEAR KLUBS DRAMATIC, NEXT IN LINE On the opposite page you see several pictures of students who belong to the CRIMSON TROUPERS Qjuniors and seniorsj and to the JUNIOR DRAMATICS CLUB Qsophomoresj Of course, all the members are not shown because there are so many that thge would not be enough room for all their pictures. Each of the four crews into which the clubs are divided is made up of boys and girls who want to do some special kind of work in dramatics. The members of the stage crew build things, just as you do with the tool chest Santa Claus brought you for Christmas. Girls who have always liked making doll dresses usu- ally join the costume crew. A number of students who enjoy daubing in grease paint, as you often do on Hallowe'en, find daub- ing on make-up much fun. And the young Shirley Temples and Freddy Bartholomews usually join the acting crew. The first picture shows you a glimpse of a rehearsal for The Flattering Word which the seniors in Crimson Troupers gave at an auditorium meeting. Beside them you see several members of the stage crew busy with hammer and e-lec-tric wires as they build scenery. In the next picture several girls are as busy as bees as they work on costumes, and at their right two a-ma-teur actors are be- ing made-up for a play. This year the Crimson Troupers presented three one-act plays. The first, The Man from Mars was the Christmas pro- gramg then came The Flattering Word g finally the juniors had their chance when they enacted Farewell Cruel World. Miss Green acts as chairman of the Crimson Troupers. Joe Wright is presidentg Betty Sliter, secretaryg and Louis Sliter, treasurer.

How Well they played at class parties! How Well they played after basketball games! How well they played at the Music Festival dance! Dance to slow tunes. Dance to the latest, jazziest tunes. Dance to the peppy music of the CENTRAL VAGABONDS. DANCE BAN EXT THE RHYTHM SWAYS MUSIC TOO WHEN CLEE CLUBS SING Aren't Music Festivals fun? Just ask the high-school people. They know because some of them have at-tend-ed one for each of the past four years. This year, on April 25, Bellevue en-ter-tained the best mu-si- cians from Norwalk, Oberlin, Port Clinton, and Willard, and when they met for practice there were 300 in the chorus and 150 in the orchestra. How fine they looked on our big stage! The nicest part about it was that they all sang together and didn't try to compete. After the one practice in the afternoon, they gave an ex-cel-lent concert in the evening. Each year a group is chosen from the band and glee clubs to go to Ada for the district solo and ensemble contest. This year, When they Went on April 17, fourteen had prac-ticed so well that they received su-per-ri-or ratings. This means the very best. Thus they Won the priv-i-lege of going to Oberlin for the State contest. Miss Barr and Mr. Cummins were happy when they could send: Clair Barnard, trumpet solo, Donald Woods, saxophone solo, Connell Zerman, trombone solo, Gordon Good, alto solog and Robert Williams, drum solo. The brass quartet tooted Well enough to go, too, so Clair Barnard, Connell Zerman, Gordon Good, and Burton Mason played again. It also made the glee clubs proud to send Mary Kathryn Keough, Ruth Zehner, Joyce Eng- lund, Allegra Loudenslagel, Clair Barnard, Connell Zerman, La- Mar Blevins, and Charles Seip to sing as an en-sem-ble Cthat means togetherj at the State contest.

When you see on the sweater of a high-school student a beau- tiful red and white felt lyre with a B in the center, you know the owner has been ac-tive in at least one of the three music de- part-ments. In order to win one of these letters, a student must have done very good work in band, or orchestra, or chorus, for three whole years. This year twenty-one students received the awards. Each lyre has .a bar for every department in which the owner has been suc-cess-ful. Robert Williams is so musical that he may wear three bars on his lyre. Four of the students received two bars: Charles Heilman, Charles Moore, Connell Zerman, and Richard Yingling. Three of this group, Charles Moore, Charles Heilman, and Robert Williams, received their letters last year. 68 LE W .l.l....1-i .l...-...- ,J l'l ,,l.....1..--- ,J SSON FOUR Is for Nothing!

These twenty-six busy seniors and juniors are in turn ed-i-tors and re-port-ers of the Bellevue Schools Weekly Review, the full witwff 1: page of school news that appears every week through the cour- of the Bellevue Gazette. To be a member of the news staff one must have at least thirty inches falmost a yardj ac-cept-ed and pub-lish-ed. Then to his great delight he is con-sid-ered able to take his turn as editor. These newspaper folk go here, there, and everywhere, look- ing for news. To them everything that happens in the school is news. They take notes at assembly meetings, col-lect material, and ask lots and lots of questions. They even stay after school to work on the paper. Some of them also earn membership in Quill and Scroll, the honor society for high-school journalists. The COMET STAFF, whose picture you see below the school news staff, is a group made up of the ten seniors and four juniors who published this primer. The staff has been busy almost the whole year planning the book, having pictures taken, and writing articles. Every single member of the staff knows his A B C's!

AA AUDITORIUM I '79 POOL IS FOR SPORTS FROM FALL TO SPRING WILLIAMS HOFFMAN GAHN HANEY US is one of the busiest letters in our primer because it stands for the many SPORTS of our high school. The head football and basketball coach Cthat means the one Who bosses everythingj is Vern B. Hoffman. He teaches our ath-let-ic-ly inclined boys to do-or-die for Bellevue, and in this Way has championship teams. CThat means better teams than any other school in our leaguej J. W. Galin is the head coach of track, and our teams really run and jump for him. He coaches the Reserve Basketball teams to titles also. In the fall, Mr. Gahn is Coach Hoffman's head as- sistant fhelperj He coaches the linemen Cnot telephone-pole Hx- ers, but the boys Who take the knocks in the front line of the football teamj Mr. Haney is the jack-of-all-trades or rather coach-of-all- sports in our school. He is the assistant coach in football, bas- ketball, and track, and has charge of the freshman and Junior High team and of life-saving tests. Our faculty fteacherj manager is Mr. Williams. He is the Emily Post of the coaching staff. That is, he tells our teams what the Well-dressed players will Wear in the games. Then he must 80 see to dressing them that way. He takes charge of the pep meet- ings and with Mr. Ross arranges league schedules. The picture at the bottom of the page shows our peppy cheer leaders. There they are, ready to spring into the air, as the crowd follows them in thundering cheers at an exciting moment in the game. THE FOOTBALL SEASON M Since all but two members of last year's championship team had been graduated, there were rumors that Bellevue could not win a game last fall. The end of the season brought an end to these rumors, for we won three of our nine football games. The last was a league contest and a victory. Bellevue's green team had ripened! September 13 M The opener Qfirst gamej of the football season was with the big bad Sandusky gridiron ffootball playing fieldj war- riors. The Bay City lads didn't like us at all. They wouldn't CHEER LEADERS 'l'hum:1e-: Lnuh, Lila Mau- Coe, Donald Hasselbacli, Nl2'Ll'g'1:ll'8t Frost, Eugene Biclihart. CHAMPIONSHIPS THEY OFTEN BRING 81 C SPORTS BEGIN RIGHT IN THE FALL even let our boys cross their goal line just once. Our players liked Sandusky so well that they let them make touch-downs Cgoalsj all of the time. We lost 47-0. September 21 The Sandusky defeat must have scared our team into think- ing that they couldn't play football. The Oak Harbor boys got real mean and wouldn't let us win the second game of the year. That big boy in our backfield, Jim Rodgers, made a real honest-to- goodness touchdown and we thought we might win, but Oak Har- bor scored two touchdowns. And so they beat us 13-7. September 28 The third game was the best of the season so far, because we beat Amherst 9-0. In the fourth quarter Tom Stark got way back and kicked the football right between the goal-posts for a field- goal fplace kick.D Rodgers made a touchdown for us, too, and we almost made another when Zerman got away for an 80-yard run just as the gun went bang! October 12 Our next football encounter Cgamel was with our ancient ri- val, Norwalk. Our team outplayed Norwalk but we lost our scor- ing punch fpepj when we were near their goal line. It was the first league game of the year and our first loss on Harmon field this year. Norwalk 7-Bellevue 0. October 18 Bellevue's eleven Iteaml couldn't stand in the spot-light at Wil- lard in their second night battle. The Railroaders railroaded Bellevue's hopes 25 to 0. We donit believe Willard liked us that game. October 26 The Tifiin game was a real thriller Qexciting g.ame.J We drew first blood ffirst pointsj when Wright, our hard-plunging fullback, scored a touchdown in the first quarter.

We made 11 first downs to 4 by New London. Rah! Rah! Bellevue! . November 9 The Oberlin game was just the reverse Cturned aroundl of the week before. Oberlin's offense was too strong for our team, although Suriano kicked up his heels for one touchdown. Wright made the extra point. The final score was 31 to 7 with Bellevue on the short end of the score.

Chuck was a guard who made every man that he tackled say Ouch l His shoes will be a hard pair to fill. Jack Archer. Arch', was one of Bellevue's veterans of last year's cham- pionship squad. He was one of our really tough tackles this year. Robert Ball. Although Bally was a newcomer to football this year, he held down his end position like a veteran. A hard-hitting farmer lad. Ellsworth Schaefer. Ells was the lightest man on the squad, but made up for it in speed and grit. He was a constant ground-gainer and a real halfback. Tom Stark. Stark's educated toe was a big factor in winning several games this season. Tom was one of the best place kickers we have had, besides being a hard-hitting plunger. Albert Scagnetti. Scag was a constant threat to enemy ball totersf' He tackled hard and held down his tackle position by being tougher than the other fellow. Three senior boys received their minor letters this year. They were Ernest Widner, Clifford Beck, and Charles Moore. Widner was kept on the sidelines several games because of in- juries. Beck was a light but scrappy guard at all times. Moore saw considerable action and proved himself a good blocker and tackler. 84 RESERVE FOOTBALL 'l'Ul'-t'n:u:l'l l-Innvy, K1-nnuth ll'uull1'uff, ltilly I-loulc, Jack KL-rstettcr.

Their worst defeat was against the highly touted ftalked up a lotl Sandusky Reserves.. A I A Scores do not tell all the story, for the boys learned mulch about football and will make valuable varsity material in the fu- ture.

The time had come for all good players to come to the aid of their team, and come they did, for both the varsity and reserve teams brought home basketball titles! In November when Coach Vern B. Hoffman issued the first call for varsity basketball players, he had to look to last year's re- serve squad for material. From these underclassmen, he molded Cput togetherl a winning combination which captured the Little Big Five title by winning seven of their eight league games and finishing their eighteen game schedule with nine victories and nine defeats for a .500 average. Tom Temple, who collected 124 points, led the team in scoring. The squad traveled to Bowling Green on December 7 to play their first game of the season with the highly-touted Cvery goodj Tygers and received a 27-15 trouncing Ca severe defeatl The following night saw the local squad return the compli- ment when they took a 31-24 victory over Amherst. The next week, on December 13, there was again too much competition from a better team, and the Lorain squad set the Redmen back 25-14. Bellevue opened their league schedule at Norwalk December 20, and with Temple hitting the hoop Cbasketj for 14 points, the Central cagers Cbasketball teaml won an exciting 24-22 victory. The following night saw the Hoffmanites upset the dope bucket Csurprise everybodyj and come out on the long end of a 30-24 score with the formidable Bucyrus quintet. This means we won again. Resuming league play December 27, with eight players figur- ing in the scoring column, Bellevue annexed Cwonj their second league victory when they turned Willard back 28-15. The next evening, the Centralites were off, and Tiffin won as Cegnialo- 5 V w 'H A MN fx.. E0 f V ' A ' N ' X , ua ix 1 ML . , fi .ff . R.

A f VARS1TY PLAYERS ARE CHAMPIONS ALL 87 s OUR BASKETEERS ARE HARD TO STOP their only victory of the year with a 19-16 score. That's all there is to say. On December 31, the alumni, led by Charles Cupp, Ohio Con- ference scoring ace, defeated the varsity 26-19. Bellevue suffered its lone league defeat January 10 when they traveled to Oberlin to take a 28-15 beating. On January 17, Port Clinton's last minute rally failed, and the local squad chalked up Qwonj their third league victory 21-20. With Heilman leading the scoring parade with 10 points, Bellevue submerged fsankj Norwalk 26-15 for their fourth league triumph on January 24. The squad annexed their fifth league win a week later at Wil- lard when they easily defeated the Railroaders 29-15 with Heil- man getting 15 points. The following night Bellevue stepped into the fast Buckeye League competition, but were set back 30-22 by Fremont Ross. We'll just pass by this lightly. Staying out of league competition February 4, the Redmen played host to the scrappy Tiflin Junior Order quintet and were defeated 25-18. Oberlin returned for their last bid for the league champion- ship, but Coach Hoffman's squad was not to be denied and won a 22-12 victory. This was a reversal of the iirst Oberlin fray Lgamej The following week-end Bellevue clinched Cmade fastj the league title by trouncing Port Clinton 35-18 with Temple getting 10 points. The Sandusky Blue Streaks closed the 1935-36 schedule, tak- ing a 22-19 win by converting 13 of 17 charity ffreel throws. The biggest crowd of the year of almost 1400 fans turned out for the contest. Next came the district tournament. Lady Luck disappoint- ed Bellevue fans, for they drew the strong Ashland five for the op- ening game. Ashland won 34-22 and continued on to Columbus. The prospects for a banner Qwinningj season next year are bright, for eight lettermen and a champion reserve squad will re- turn to Central High. 88 RESERVE BASKETBALL 'PHI'-Mr. llzihn.

Seventy-five boys participated ftook partj in the tourna- ment, which was conducted just like the varsity contest. They had referees, scorekeepers, time-outs, and everything in this eight-team league. There were many exciting games before the championship team reached the top. In the finals, Seip's team won two out of three games against Clifford Beck's team, which had won the con- solation tournament. Although the boys in the picture on the right are not ready to dive into the pool, nevertheless they are probably wishing that they were. For they are the best SWIMMERS of B. H. S. They are the ones who, if the need should arise, can skim through the waves to help out some one less experienced. A few of these boys already have Junior Life Saving badgesg and all are candidates for either this or the Senior Life Saving award. FROM ALL CLASSES---SO IT SEEMS 91 A MEANS TRACK, ANOTHER SPORT The hoppers, skippers, and jumpers of B. H. S., otherwise known as the track men, have had a successful season this year under the direction of Coaches J. W. Gahn and George Haney. On April 9 Bellevue opened its track season in a dual meet with Mansfield. Although the final score was Mansfield 97, Bellevue 27, it must be kept in min-d that Mansfield is a large school and al- ways has one of the strongest track teams in the state. Thus the coaches thought that Bellevue made a good showing for so early in the season. This year's Redmen were fast developing into a winning com- bination when they met Norwalk in a dual meet on April 11. The Redmen did well even though two letter men were absent, due to illness, but they did not gather quite enough points. Norwalk was the victor, 65 to 57. Just beginning to hit the stride Cto winj, the Redmen easily defeated Port Clinton on April 22. The final score was Bellevue 97 1-2, Port Clinton 35 1-2. On May 2 the Little Big Five League was held on the Oberlin College track. Although the Redmen had to give up to Oberlin the title won last year, they made a very good showing. Four iirst places and one tie for another first were taken by the follow- ing for Bellevue: Wright, discus, a new league record of 12 feet 11 inches, Rodgers, 440 yard dash, Moyer, Kasuga, Kerstetter, Rodgers, mile relay, Widner, mile, and Rodgers, tied in the pole vault. Boys taking second places for Bellevue were: Moyer, 880 yard run, Zerman, javelin, Rodgers, broad jump, Kasuga, Stark, Blevins, Latham, 880 yard relay. In addition, four third places, one fourth place, and six fifth places were taken. Nevertheless Oberlin topped Kwon overj us with a total of 80 1-4 points compar- ed to our 64 1-3. The throwing of the discus by Joe Wright was 92 TRACK TUI'-Ruhr-1't Lzillmni, Clair ll:u'nm'1l, .Jean Bc-ll:11'd. FtlLlli'l'I-l-ltnbm-l'l Moyer, 'Pom Aiglvr, l-lal Stump. George Zeigler.

NUT IN l'Ii?'l'llHIC-I.:LM:u' lil:-Vins. the outstanding event of the meet, and James Rodgers with a to- tal of 15 1-2 points, was high point man for Bellevue. The triumph of the mile relay team marked the third consecutive year it has been victorious in league competition. The final scores of the meet were as follows: Oberlin 80 1-2, Bellevue 64 1-3, Norwalk 43 1-3, Willard 37 1-3, Port Clinton 14 1-2. Six lettermen, formed the nucleus Ccorej of this year's Red- men. If Mr. Gahn is able to find a goodldistance man to replace Widner and a dash man for Latham, both seniors lost by gradua- tion, next year should be a banner year for B. H. S. in field and track sports. RUNNING, JUMPING IS THEIR FORTE. 93 'N SPORTS FOR GIRLS WITHIN OUR SCHOOL Perhaps by now, little readers, you have decided that boys are the best athletes 5 but just look at the pictures on the opposite page and you will see that we have some pretty fine girls interest- ed in athletics, too. The girls in B. H. S. we find can use their feet as well as their heads. You should just see them kick the ball around when they play soccer. In basketball, too, they dart here and there so fast that their gym suits look just like streaks of bright blue. The top picture across the page shows the winning basket- ball team. These girls had stiff competition in the other twenty- four teams of the girls' intramural tournament. The final game was an exciting one between the winners, captained by Virginia Starr, and the runners-up fsecond best teamj, whose captain was Wilma Miller. The winners are: QXQISN-IN!! llASKl'l'l'IlA LL 'l'l1lAll Tf.Jl.'Eiti'1ieEllzfyan, Virginia l'z1lme1', Evelyn Mn-A '4-- l'. Caroli, xli- L1-Isley. l':1tric'i:i Mc-filatin.

Doesn't that next picture make you envious of the girls who have a chance to use our fine pool? The silvery water is so clear that you can see the smooth, white bottom. The girls on the edge can hardly wait to dive. The ma-jor-i-ty of the girls in that pic- ture can imitate their Hiinny friends so well that they have suc- ceeded in passing the Junior Life Saving tests.

These children started in at school as little tiny tots, And as they struggled through the grades, their teachers taught them lots. And so through Junior High they passed, and on and on they came 'Till they had reached the Senior High and won desired fame. The sophomores in '36 found plenty to be done, They had a merry party and enjoyed it every one. The freshmen planned a program with Marquis and his spooks, And folks went 'round for weeks and weeks with scared and side- wise looks. Then next the freshies felt so gay that they all gathered 'round, And had a party at the school, the merriest to be found. And so these two young classes, newcomers in our midst, In coming years will take our place and to our work enlist. Already they are in our clubs 5 they help as much as we, For they are quickly growing up and catching on, you see. We're really awfully glad to feel that though we soon must go, The sophomores and freshmen will carry on, we know. 100 , f LE II E E E 1 i SSGN SIX Is for :the helpful Voice Of students in the school.

Its pres-i-dent is Charles Heilmang vice-president, Donald Cook, secretary, Kathleen Koechleyg assistant secretary, Mar- guerite Barker. This active group has helped in many Ways to improve our school. Its members have had charge of the checkrooms at the basketball games, and in April they promoted a Cour-te-sy Week, When four hundred and thirty students signed a pledge to be more man-ner-ly.

Can-di- dates are judged on the basis of character Cthat means their idealsj, leadership Cthat is their ability to go ahead without being pushedj, scholarship ftheir grades in schoolb, and their service to the school. The charter of the National Honor Society for Bellevue High was obtained in 1924, and since then this society has been the goal for con-sci-en-tious Workers. Every year fifteen per cent of the graduating class is selected for mem-ber-ship. These are the officers elected by the members of the National Honor Society: president, Joseph Sweetg vice-president, Joyce Englund g secretary, Donald Hasselbach.

Students from all over the world are members of this or-gan-i-za-tion. Its purpose is to reward high-school students for very good work in some phase of jour- nal-ism. V The jour-nal-ists of Bellevue High School are the people who work on the Bellevue Schools Weekly Review and the Comet. Af- ter they have written a great many fine articles, samples of their work are sent to head-quar-ters, and if approved, the students are ac-cept-ed as members of the society. In B. H. S. there are twelve members, nine seniors and three juniors. The junior members were initiated by the seniors with the beautiful candle-light ser- vice at the Recognition Banquet. i The officers are: Joan Calienni, p-residentg Richard Gahn, vice-presidentg Betty Sliter, secretary-treasurer. BELLEVUE I-IAS THEM---FOUR VARIETIES 105 WINNERS OF OUR SPORTS AND STAGE. A Thespian is a student dram-a-tist who has attained the highest reward given to high-school pupils who are in-ter-est-ed in plays and acting. To become a member of the NATIONAL THESPIAN SOCIETY one must have done a certain amount of work in dramatics, and have been approved by head-quar-ters. Actors and members of the make-up, cos-tum-ing, and stage crews are all el-i-gi-ble for mem-ber-ship, but only the re-li-a-ble ones of each group keep working long enough to be con-sid-ered worthy of mem-ber-ship. This year the society includes twenty-iive members, twenty- three seniors and two juniors. Each one had done line work in- di-vid-u-ally, and 'in a body they all have co-op-er-at-ed per-fect-ly. The Thespians elected the following officers: Richard Ying- ling, presidentg Kathleen Koechley, vice-presidentg Ellsworth Schaefer, secretary-treasurer.

By doing this they have earned mem- ber-ship in the NATIONAL ATHLETIC SCHOLARSHIP SO- CIETY. All have been in the upper third of their class schol-as-ti-cal- ly for three semesters, and have also earned major letters in a major sport of the high school athletics. In their cases brains ac- com-pa-ny brawn. Robert Ball, Charles Heilman, and Thomas Stark received their letters in football, and Robert Latham and Ralph Nottke gained theirs in track.
