Columbian High School - Blue and Gold Yearbook (Tiffin, OH)

This year we faced our big problem--that of financing the Iunior-Senior Prom. The very successful Iunior-Senior game solved this problem for us. Another success in which our class displayed its dramatic ability, for many took part, was the comical play You Can't Take lt with You. As seniors, Columbian High School became our castle. What importance! What dignity we felt as we once again climbed to the top, filling the places left vacant by last year's graduates! Our class started out on the home stretch with a desire to obtain as much as possible from this, our last year of high school. During this busy year we took time out to elect the following officers to lead us: President .....,....,........,.............,........ Rex Felton Secretary ..,.............,....... Mary Alice Zeis Vice-President. ...,.........,.., George Yerby Treasurer ..,.............,........,....,.. Ruth Atwater Phyllis Bowers, Bill Sheeley, Marjorie Good, Harry Auble, Ruth McQuate, Bob Haines, Iohn Houck, Eileen Troup, Alice Myers, and Mary Alice Zeis were chosen to represent the students in the publication of the Blue and Gold. ln May, we were represented for the last time in the scholarship tests at Bowling Green. Some of our members also won honors in the Heidelberg scholarship tests. Members of our class showed their ability to bring characters to life in the two big successes of the year, Stage Door and Charts-y's Aunt. We give due credit to our basketball team which Won again for Colum- bian High the Buckeye League title. Four members ofthe first lineup were seniors, and we are justly proud of their success. We also want to commend loyce Wolfe, the only senior cheerleader, for her work at pep rallies and games. Harry Auble and Phyllis Bowers were efficient leaders of the Hi-Y and G. R., respectively. A member of our class, lane Shumaker, was president-elect of the Ohio Home Economics Club. Zora Horak won a trip to Florida as county winner of a quiz on alcohol. ln our junior year Barbara Greer won second prize in an essay contest conducted by the Tiffin Woman's Club. The Iunior-Senior Prom and Class Day were the outstanding social events of the year. Always to be remembered are the Baccalaureate and Commencement exercises with their inspiring messages. As we leave our high-school days behind, we shall strive to carry out the meaning of our class motto and always make Success Our Goal. -MARY ALICE ZEIS, Secretary ll N IVII IE IW CD IR II A IVII 1923-1939 1922 1935 RUSSELL REAMER ALSIP IR 1923-1935 LAURA SWARTZ ALBERT HAROLD BERSON

Seam Blau Jlazmq As freshmen, we reigned supreme at Iunior High. Proceeding through the year with an air of superiority that a class is certain to ac- quire upon becoming freshmen, we entered into the many activities offered at Junior High with vim and vigor. The Glee Club, Drum and Bugle Corps, and Orchestra claimed the attention of our musically inclined, while football and basket- ball were for our aspiring athletes. The great minds of our class turned to the state scholar- ship tests and won many high honors. The really triumphal occasion came with our very successful presentation of our fresh- man play, Tom Sawyer, on Class Night. An appropriate and exciting ending for our eventful freshman year was the Freshman Party. H ln the fall of 1938 we arrogantly ascended the steps of Columbian High School. How- ever, much to our amazement, we found we were not supreme as we had been the year before but were only thought of as being very green, if we were thought of at all. Humbled but. not downed under these reproaches, we organized our class. Our first class officers were: President ........,. ...............,....,.,... D oyle Nutter Secretary .......,.......,..,................. Alice Myers Vice-President ...,,....i...........,., Iohn Houck Treasurer .,..,..,.......... Marjorie McDonald We chose as our motto, Success is Our Goal , our flower, the yellow roseg and our colors, blue and silver. We were well represented in all activities, including scholarship. Two of our members succeeded in making the varsity basketball team, and two wrangled on varsity football. The overwhelming event of the year was our glorious and ever memorable Sophomore Prom. We returned to school in September l939 to become the juniors of Co- lumbian High. After finding our places again in the activities, we found time to organize our class. We elected: President ......,.........,..,................ Bill Sheeley Secretary ............. ,.,. ....... L o ribel Raymond Vice-President ............,....,.., Bob McC1ory Treasurer .........................,..,.......... Bob Haines Many of our members traveled to Bowling Green and placed high in scholastic tests. We were also well represented in all athletics, as well as in dramatics and music.
