We hope that you will have a pleasant afternoon as you are visiting the various classes and departments. Although our school is small, we are very proud of it and want you to be the same. We want you to know our faculty and see for yourselves how each teacher conducts his many classes. The library and ollice are often spoken of by the students. The library is a place where we all go to obtain books to stimulate our thinking or for books in which we may lose ourselves and relax our minds. The oflice is a place where we go to gain information con- cerning school. Sometimes this room is turned into a lecturing hall for those few who find it impossible not to talk when the teacher is out of the study hall. Now, parents, do not lift your eyebrows, because if all the pranks you relate of your school days are true- then this prank is very minor. The Home Economics, Manual Training, and Agriculture depart- ments invite you to visit them and sce the work they are endeavoring to do to make better citizens of the students. Miss Leslie, head of the Music Department, invites you to hcar as well as see what she and the chorus are accomplishing. Mr. Craig, our genial coach, and the two squads invite you to inspect and observe their practice periods. They will endeavor to show you how much hard practice it really takes to play the good games of basketball you come to see every Friday evening. Mr. Wright, our superintendent, and Mr. Miller, our principal, and we of the student body wish to extend our thanks to you and hope you are pleased with what you have seen. C. G.

The Ordinance of 1787, over l50 years ago, provided that, Hreligion, morality, and knowledge heing necessary to good government and the happiness of mankind, schools and the means of education shall forever he encouragedf' ldollowing out the spirit of this ordinance, the people of the Tully-Convoy School District have faithfully and generously supported their school. At lirst only the parents with pupils who attended school contributed to the support of schools, hut the idea has always prevailed that schools of any kind are a decided asset to a community. So as early as lti2l the state legislature provided lor townships to levy' taxes on themselves lor school purposes. The Tully'-Conroy' gl'll00l has a broad program of studies. The high school curriculum is well ahove standard. One aim of the administration is to establish the home economics department on a vocational basis, the same as the agriculture department. The home economics department and cafeteria have been remodeled. New equipment and supplies have made it possihle to care for a larger group of students. The school is in need ol additional equipment, especially in the science depart- ment. General science. biology, chemistry. and physics are being offered with good sized classes in all lour ol the sciences. It is planned to install modern equipment in the near future and thus make our science department the equal of the others. l haye enjoyed my' worlx this year at Tully-Convoy' yery' much and appreciate the cooperation of Mr. Shaller, the local school hoard, faculty, and student body in making my lirst year a prolitahle one. +Supt.

ME TS MQ Next comes the newly introduced Smith Hughs, work, which instructs the boys in better methods of farming, including soil conservation, animal husbandry, and farm mech- anics. Closely related to Smith Hughs' work is home economics, which trains the girls in arts of cooking, sewing and other useful household tasks. The sciences include biology, chemistry and physics, which not only explain the intricate make-up of our universe, but also give us certain useful facts which can be ap- plied to our daily life. In the business world today there are thousands of efhcient secretaries, accountists and typists who receive the foundation of their training in our high schools. Our musical department provides excellent training in both vocal and instrumental music. For some it is merely an outlet of their emotions, but for others it affords a firm foundation for further study and development. And lastly, our physical education department not only trains our athletic teams but also furnishes an outlet for intra-mural athletics. It teaches us the value of play and rec- reation i11 our everyday school program and gives us an opportunity to develop our phy- sical being. So year after year our faculty sends out bigger and better citizens. However, to most young children education means very little except the learning of their A B C's. There are always a few who pick certain great men or Women as examples and are ever striving to reach their goal, so that they too may someday leave their name at the top. lthink Long- fellow wcll expressed his idea in the following stanza of his poem MThe.Psalm of Lifew: HLives of great men all remind us That we can make our lives sublime, And departing leave behind us, Foot prints in the sand of timef, G.

It is their duty to budget the necessary money to maintain a school of high standards. Tully-Convoy has become noted for its instruction and maintenance. The policy of the school board is to give the community the best school possible, yet stay on a Hrm financial footing. Mr. Tracy, the retiring president, served a valuable member of the local board for eight years. Mr. Tracy gave liberally of his time and ability. He was not a candidate for re-election and in his place Mr. Bruce Mollenkopf was elected and assumed his oliice January l, l940. Mr. Hertz was re-elected at the same time. In the reorganization Mr. Riley was unanimously elected president of the board. This will make Mr. Rileyis fifth year as a member. Mr. C. A. Muntzinger was elected Vice-President. This is Mr. Munts zingeris third year. Mr. Hertz is serving his thirtieth year as a school board memberg thirteen years of which have been on the local board. lVlr. Hertz was re-elected clerk for a two year term. He is exacting and efficient in the handling of the business of the school board. Mr. Hilton is the fifth member of the board. He is serving his fifth year. Mr. W. lVl. Wriglit is serving his first year as superintendent and is ably assisted by Mr. Miller as principal. l me M erolp on 13 9 'Q llereis to the Seniors of the 'liully-Comoy Schools. Vtfith great interest for twelve years we have watched your progress and development in school. Now you are about to go out into the world where you will be on your own. If you have learned the lessons of how to make friends and keep r them, to participate in the worth-while ac- tivities in your community and to keep yourself informed on matters pertaining to the public good, your years spent in school will not have been in vain, llllt will 4: have been most profitable. Z y C. L. Shaller. -is J M 4,:g',i -uw 1: f r To all the schools and students in Van ivert County, Mr. Shallicr compels a certain respect as County Superintendent. However, to the Juniors and Seniors of Tully-Convoy High School he is much more than this because it was under his supervision that we began, to us, our most interesting school - life. All through the following years we have felt that Mr. Shaflier had an especial interest in us because he started us. Wll6llCX'6t' Mr. Shaffer comes to our school. it has been our experience that he has something interesting to tell us. These liaets are not something ol' momentary value but things which will add to our permanent knowledge in the future. This is a small token ol' the appreciation we feel lor the aid Mr. Shafler has given ns during our school career. M. .l. T. V 1 we M!Al'0l0A-On 101114: ::1:1::1u1u:1n :1c1::1c1::1: 11:11 101 W. M.

SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Class Colors: Aqua and Peach Class Flower: Sweet Pea Class Motto: B E ln the late summer month of September, l928, a riotous bunch ol' urchins ap- proached the sacred recesses of Tully-Convoy Public School. Any person unfortunate enough to be standing along the wayside on that balmy morning received the impres- sion that the world would be set alire by that group oi luture citizens. With the aid of Miss Temple this group settled down to the most important task of life-educating themselves in order that they might attain a successful future. Their outstanding activities in the Eisteddfod during their first three years of school showed that they were really a remarkable class as a whole. Their teachers in the grades were the best that could possibly be desired. The general discipline of the class showed that they appreciated this fact. Their school days were going fast now, and they increased their speed until they added another flight of stairs to their climb for education. That was back in that good old seventh grade. There they began educating the upper-classmen inf an interesting field--mischief. But it didn't take them long to adapt themselves to the environment of the older students. Now they entered the most important four years of their life. They were known as 'Lgreenw Freshmen. But donit misunderstand, this didnit break their morale. Talk about athletes, why Martin and Carrier were practically professionals then already. It was just a matter of time until they were varsity men. During this Freshman year the class elected Marlin Thomas, President, and he showed such leadership that they followed him through the rest of their high school career. By now, future. professions were beginning to shape up ir1 their minds. Mr. Shaffer, their first superintendent, and Mr. Leiter, who succeeded him, always stressed the fact that a good foundation was the basic necessity for future success. The class soon realized that they were indebted to these men for their feelings. And now, Mr. Wiright, who at once gained theiappreciation of every student in the building, took over the helm of MThe Ship of liearningw and is piloting them out of public instruc- tion into the turbulent waters of self-education. At his side stands Mr. Miller, the class sponsor, who also was always ready to do anything lor the betterment of the class and who is respected by every member. Now all this is past and experience is their only teacher. It is the sincere belief that this class, which was so remarkable as a whole, w ill succeed just as well as individuals. -Ronald Reidenbach.

All of the class were present except four. Esther Abbott is in India as a missionary and John Chavarria is in South America doing research work for the Akron Company. George Gasiday was unable to be there because of his air mail route, but as he went over the schoolhouse he dropped a note which said, '6Hello everybody! Wfish I were eating dinner with youfi Vile were all surprised to hear' that Junior Schaffner left last week on his nhoneymoonw in Paris, Franc-c,fso, per- haps you may see him and his pretty bride before long. It seemed good to be with the old classmates again. Theyire the same bunch, haven't changed a bit since 1940. Gloria Mustard, main telephone operator of Columbus, asked Marlin 'l'homas, master farmer of Ohio in l95l., how many batteries he had run down in his car in the last twelve years. The manager of the New York Giants gave Robert 'LStu Martin, catcher, and Vernon Carrier, shortstop, a weekis leave. We received some real inside information and lill let you in on it, loo. Stu says itis 3 to l the Giants will take the series this year. Ruthella Konkle has accepted a position as hrst grade teacher and became ac- quainted with some of her pupils at the reunion. You will not only enjoy listening but also seeing on your television set Ronald lieidenbachis Rainbow Rhythm Orchestra with Lois Schaberg as the singing star. This excellent program is sponsored by Stardust Cosmetics which is under the capable management of Virginia Eddy. At noon we enjoyed a delicious dinner at Longvs restaurant. Everyone showed their appreciation by helping Glenn and Virginia wash the dishes so that they could attend the program in the afternoon. It certainly surprised me to learn that Hogcr Week accepted the pastorate of the Eirst Baptist Church in Cleveland. But it seems he is not the only preacher in our classg Vcrlin Eeasby has been appointed to the Methodist Church in Phoenix, Arizona. Jean Keverfs picture Homing won the l95l, academy award.

Mary Jo and Eunice. head bookkeepers in the State 'l'reasurer's ofhce in Ohio, have just returned from their monthis vacation in Honolulu. You'll surely want to read Mabel Carrierls book Hints to the Back Seat Drivern. ltis a book everyone should r'ead. Bonnie llart and Robert Glancy did not arrixe rmtil in the afternoon. Bonnie is supervisor of the Michael lliis Hospital in Chicago while Robert is a star reporter on the Chicago Herald. Did you know that Arline Hager received a large sum of money from a great aunt?

I think we have something in the U. A. that is not found in lfurope. Daniel Friedly, professor of chemistry at Ohio State University, invented a little gadget so that as soon as you hit the hay, so to speak, it turns on the radio and the music 'plays you to sleep. The vibration of one7s snoring turns off the radio and you have heen put to sleep without thinking of all your worries. Marcile Young is the capable governess of the john Roosevelt family. She gave us a few doas and donltls on how to raise children. I noticed Bill Mollenkopf, im- plement dealer in Van Wert, was listening very closely. Please hurry back so you can see the picture HLove Sprouts Wingsi' starring Harriet Hall and Mickey llooney. Thafs one picture you,ll never forget. Oh, yes, I almost forgot, Wilbur Farlow wasnlt at the reunion. He left a month ago for the South Pole where he is setting up a grocery store in the new settlement. The reunion was adjourned for another year when we are to meet at Arlineis hotel. Marlin Thomas was nominated as president for the thirteenth time, Harriet Hall, vice-president, and Bill Mollenkopf as secretary-treasurer. I hope, after reading this report of the 12th reunion of our class, you will feel that not all the efforts of the school faculty of 1940 were in vain. Everyone thought of you during the day and wondered where you were at that particular time. I suppose you are enjoying every moment of your trip in Ixurope. And-while you are sight seeing, donlt forget to look for Junior and his bride. Sincerely yours, Joyce Gardner P.S.' f-Mr. Miller, our senior sponsor, was at the reunion.

I Miss Wolfe became our sponsor when we started on our Freshman year and our ollicers were Clarence Young, Presidentg Joan Shotts, Vice-Presidenftg and Clendene Van Landingham, Secretary-Treasurer. Our first party was the Initiation Party given by the Sophoinores. Later we had a skating party at the YWCA which was enjoyed hy everyone including those who spent part of the evening sprawled over the Hoor. President Harold Rosendahlg Vice-President Mary Horine, Secretary-Treasurer Patty Shovlin, and our sponsor Miss Wfolfe began to make plans for the initiation of the lfreshnien when we became Sophornores. Again we had a skating party at the YWCA. But parties are certainly hard on the poeketbook, so we gave a bake sale which made us a nice suni. Now we are Juniors, Clarence Young is again our President, Morgan Fortney our Vice-President and Patty Shovlin, our Secretary-Treasurer. Our class play. HAunt Tillie Coos To Townw, was a huge success. Our hank account is increasing rapidly with our candy sales and markets.

H. are doing. Suddenly I decide to consult my magic lamp which knows all. l chant the magic words. 'tAbakadabra sabacadabrates l wish to know of my classmates. Are they alive or are they dead, What do they do to earn their bread?,i Listen! The genie will start on the eastern coast. ln New York City is a distinguished young broker who has made good, Harold liosendahl. He has a very comely secretary in his office. It looks like Annabelle Stemen, another C. H. S. graduate. Also in New York is Merle Cox, an agricultural agent. His chief interest in Vo.-Ag. was his corn and other farm products, and now he has put his knowledge to the test. in his OfF1CC he has his old pal, Arnold Thornell, as his assistant. It seems that Dorothy Stevenson is making her living by winning trophies and blue ribbons, but it is not on pigs. She has been proclaimed HMiss America l960i' lfeven at her age.P With her still, and acting as her personal agent, is ,lean Hoblet. Hereis a treat for the graduates of 1941! Clarence Young, one of our OWN classmates, is running for the presidency this year. ln Philadelphia Clendene VanLandingham has made good as a society editor on the cityis largest newspaper. Right at this moment she is giving due consideration to the MLare twinsw, Mary and Martha, who are the guests of the socially prominent Miss Alice Poling of that city. Joan Shotts has become a school teacher in a public school in Boston, Massa- chusetts. Morgan Fortney is the principal in the same school. In the main branch of Boston Public Libraries Maxine Schafiner is librarian. ln Birmingham, Alabama, Mary Horine has established an office where she writes the column, NAdvice on Love and Marriagev, for prominent newspapers. Her secretary, Patty Shovlin, is still single, but it is not her fault, it was some of Mary's advice that kept her so. V Robert Meyer has taken his father's veterinarian business over in Convoy. Ethel Mohr is a very eflicienl housewife of a local business man. His name is not disclosed. A large farin occupies all of Marvin ljtzleris time. Although she is Mrs. now, Marcilc Hager is still in the bakery business. 3i.zafz.,,,,,i.,,, 31 1:1111 :ni 13:1 2010.291:::4:in:u1n::n14::::1- iuiu: i::i1::n:,4::o:uc Lavon La Rue is a large wheat grower near Topeka, Kansas.

We owe a lot of deep appreciation to these men, who through the years of our school career have been willing to saerihce their time and effort to accommodate us. When we were in the need of help, we merely had to submit our problem to them. ' One cannot realize the hardships encountered by the janitors while in the course of duty and also when they extended their help in extra-curricular activities. Tasks came before them which required a great amount of patience and Work. We feel greatly indebted to the janitors, and We shall always remember them as two of the best friends we made While in school. -Marlin Thomas. 3' 'QW 4afud4y.w 'ul sig!!! 07' fp we -af, . xl-9's!'?l. 114911, We-flak-'wiai Eexihaflimlzsi fl?'51Ii':'0?4?' +ZvS'oZvB'J -Wxfwre' s 1 i'Z lxiilllfl Y!!! 1 03 GA N ZA T10 A--R l- ADVISERS STAFF AND We of the liollvrophon stall. togellwr with our illlYlSPl'S, Mr. Millvr.

A program was planned for the entire year and monthly meetings were held. The IJ1'OfI1'3lUS were based on lionian life and llonian customs. Probably the meeting we are the least apt to forget is the Cliristnias party, which every one enjoyed because there were lots of toys in the Christmas exchange.

The number of members, composed of Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors, exceeded that of other years. We had a great variety of talent which enabled us to have some very enjoy able times under the supervision of our music instructor, Miss Leslie. The rehearsal period was every Wedriesday afternoon and on Friday afternoons we met with the Boys, Glee. Among our various works we have studied light choral compositions for girls? voices. Our public appearances were made in chapel, the Christmas program, and Farinersl ln- stilute. We also took part in the Music Festival. --Nlaxine Schaffner. we Ql'0l9 0l'L 1 .1 10: ,i :i 1 f. in ::in:uzuininluzpuznz 1 1 14111 101030101 BOYS' GLEE Bottom Row: Marvin Kever. junior Duncan.

During the year we have sung on many programs, including chapel, Farmers, Institute. and the Christmas program when we gave the cantata Childe Jesus. One of the most interesting events in which we participated was the Music Festival. Many of our members were chosen to sing in the Baccalaureate Chorus at the end of the year. ln January our group was privileged to attend a concert given at the Van Wert High School by the Oberlin Men's Glee Club. After their delightful program we had a better vision of what a musical education should mean to us. Much ol our success should be given to our accompanist, Mary Jo Tracy. who spent much of her time in helping us progress as we did. However, the most credit for our work and success belongs to our capable and understanding leader, Miss Leslie. Through her help and leadership we fcel that we have grown musically, both in skill as performers and as apprcciators of liuc music. lu years to come we all hope that the chorus shall mmm as much to others as it has mcaut lo us. f-llosina Marsh. jg Q M 9l'Ol9 on 5 xl PU? - 3 i 1 1 1 C'f'1010 1 12 1 2 1 12 1010 10 1 2 1 C 1 cr 101 010 1 : 1 uioiuiugnioe SCHOOL BA Fruln Left lu Rigln 'l'lI'OI1l Huw: ,lane Swiclx.
