ARGO EPICS Throughout its lengthy voyages, the Argo has encountered many obstacles and much strife. These hove been personified in the form of a Treosure Hunt. She thrives on biology, she lives for science, She has o 12B co-worker, o partner in this strange alliance. Ne'er a wallflower was he meant to be, Always on the go to do and to see, He is head of the monetary staff— As for personality always good for a laugh. She is small, petite, and blond, Of crime and fingerprints very fond. Whereso'er a piano you may see, There seated he will be. O Captain, my Captain— Of stature he is small. O Captain, yea Captain, Listen to him, Clear out the hall! Her long golden tresses are done in a knob; No curls for her, or stray ends, nor even a bob. Watching her strut and swing that baton Is enough to moke any band want to ploy on. An executor is she, of students. Who handles all with core and prudence. In oil walks she is willing and ambitious. Ne'er will you find her giddy or capricious. Red of head, green-blue of eye. Class officer—can you tell why? Singulorly he received track recognition Despite plenty of stiff competition. And of course you must surely know How he ranks in the javelin throw! Two girls—one blond, one brunette Who said, We'll edit your booklet yet. A charming lass whom they all call Swede, Who os head of our Spotlight has filled our need. The student leader of the Honor Society Whose merits ore ample in variety. A football star, an oil round man; He plays above par—meet him if you can. Dashing, witty, lively, goy, Vice President in a great big way.

Joe's ability to get away to a fast start on the 880 relay team won him much distinction. He also was a very good dash man, running in the 100 and 220 yard events. Joe was on the varsity track squad for two years and won two letters. He competed in the State meet at Columbus twice in the 880 relay, and won first both times. JOSEPH HVALA Joe caught in all the games on the varsity hardball team last year and was one of the team's hardest hitters, batting .304 and hitting five doubles out of seven hits. Coach Newman called Joe the most promising player on the field. Joe also started in the backfield on the reserve football team in 1934. Coach Yost expected him to star for the varsity this year, but results of an injury received playing on the reserves kept him out of the lineup. JOHN SZARKA Johnnie played varsity football for two years, starring in the Railroaders' backfield in 1933 and 1934, when Collin-wood was co-holder of the Senate championship. Johnnie was a valuable blocking halfback and his ball carrying was above average. Johnnie was also a star on the track team, running in the half mile relay, mile relay, 220 dash, and the low hurdles events. In addition he was on the cross country team far one year. The following served their school on reserve teams or played in minor sports: Frank Cotman, gym team; Jack Divers, reserve track and gym team; Bob English, softball, baseball, and cross country; Eddy Grigonis, reserve football and basketball; Herman Kirshner, reserve football; Mirko Rovtar, reserve football and track; Laddie Sadar, varsity basketball; Ray Slater, reserve football, basketball, and varsity football; Carmen Silvestro, softball baseball.

ffl EflEflOnPflOnGflm nUnUnl WILL OF THE ARGONAUTS As we leave the Argo to enter into further conquests, wc hove decided to leave some of the things acquired along the way to our friends for future use. We have become very fond of these items and hope the receivers will be justly appreciative. Mildred Ackerman generously bestows the two large bottles of milk that she drinks daily for lunch to Jim Finch with the hopes that it will make him a big strong football hero. Les Englehort wills his resemblance to a beanpole to Fred Pierce. To Jean Fitzgerald are willed Doris Kershaw's boys' shirts. The Alpha Hi-Y boys leave their cans of cleaning fluid, with which they tried to clean their white A's, to the Gammas to use on the white part of their insignias. Harold Demshar leaves his even temper and pleasant disposition to Chet Reed. Margaret Sneller leaves her ability to make snappy clothes to Fronces Zakrajsek. Florence Huber is to become the proud possessor of Angie Lupo's chubbiness. Although he doesn't know how he'll get around without them, Gerald Galloway leaves his big feet to Glyde Marsh. Chuck Ehinger wills his ability to go steady to Chuck Ohly. Some of Florence Dunbar's friends have persuaded her to will her collars to her sister Jane—and they hope Jane presses them, too. Phil Sasso is granted Michael Pollock's large vocabulary although some of his friends think he knows enough puzzling words already. From Polly Bobeach, Beatrice Kokorich gets the job of keeping her “Hepburn bangs carefully curled. Joe Callahan leaves his tap dancing ability to Billy Byrant and Jack Divers his piano playing to Ralph Napletana. Ruth McIntosh's gum chewing ability goes to Thelma Grober with the warning, Try to keep the teachers from catching you! Thirty-Two
