We feel that our training has influenced us to set the highest and best things in life as our goal. Page 'Ewo Ilwaltll DEDICATION In appreciation of his innumerable kind- nesses., his willingness and untiring efforts to help in time of need, his devoted loyalty to those who have depended on his services for the past twenty-two years, and his friendly smile and greeting' of welcome that has won the friendship of all who know him, we the class of '42 and '43 dedicate this, the XVIII volume of the Bellerophon, to our janitor, Walter Zimmerman.

Last year we entered high school with an enrollment ol' thirty-one mem- liers. We elected Carl Pancake, presidentg La Verne Sclialmerg, vice-presidentg and Carol Carey, SE'L'I'6U1l'f,'-IYCQISUl'Gl'. Under the supervision ol' Miss Freck, our helpful sponsor, we had many good times which included two parties. On September 12, 1911, we held our organization meeting' at which Carl Vane cake was re-elected presidentg Bill North, vice-presidentg and Carol Catrey, secreta1'y-trea,surer. Besides initiating' the Freshmen, We have had several parties, one of which was given by Mr. Hosack, our sponsor. It is our desir- ous hope that our good times of the past will be eclipsed by our good times of the future. eCarol Carey Page Fourteen R O O K I E S FRESHMEN 'lint Huw: Evelyn Cnwgill, Yvonne Rosenclalil, Katherine Morehead, Paul Pancake James Ryan, William Sowers, Ilo Gribler, Opal Fealsby, Miss Freck.

Page Eighteen Page Ninet een 32 1941-1942 BASKETBALL The 1941-42 basketball season ended with a record of 12 Wins and 6 losses. In February our coach, Mr. Craig, belonging to the Reserve Officers, Training Corps, was called into the army. Mr. Wright then. took up the task of coaching. It was unfortunate that Bud Fry broke a shoulder and was out of the games for several Weeks. However, we had a fairly successful season, Winning from Ridge in the first game of the tournament, but losing to Middle Point in the second game. Five players will graduate this year but there are others who are Willing and ready to take their places. N45 SEASON'S IU3l'0llll 1941-'42 Convoy ........ 48 Wren ........

So, as a result, we ended up by having six girl cheer leaders. By the efficient help oi' Miss Barnes and the Home lfleonoinic girls, our outfits were niade. Their help was thoroughly appreciated by us.

Nix The last two years have proved to be very progressive for our school band under the able direction of Mr- Linn. We have several younger ones who came into the band, which makes the personnel about fifty-two. The band has played for several appearances, including' the Peony Festi- val, the Farmers' Institute, the class plays, the band festival, and the Dis- trict Band Contest at Springfield, Ohio. Several soloists took part in the Dis- trict Band Contest, also, making good showings. By the organization of the Band Mothers, we have been able to secure many instruments and other additions to the band. They are to be highly praised for their hard work put in for our cause. The showing of the band has proved the ability of Our Band. -Jean Thomas Page Twenty-Seven MIXED CHORUS Top Row: Joan Cupp, Mary Catherine VVherry, Carol Carey, Marvin Myers, VVayne Giessler, Don- ald Bailey, Gcivaise Peters, Eugene Bostit-k, Floyd Northup, Benton Muntzinger.

Last year ollr mixed chorus, made up of students from high school, under the di- rection of Miss Leslie, made a trip to Springfield, Ohio, and took part in the District Vocal Contest. Here We received a rating of 2 plus, which entitled us to take part in the State Vocal Contest at Columbus. Later in the spring of 1941 we presented the operetta 'The Forest Prince by Tschaikowsky. In the fall of 1941 Miss Carr came to fill the vacancy left by Miss Leslie. On the Christmas program our group presented the cantata The Childe Jesus. In March all of our members were taken by bus to VVren where they participated in the All-County Vocal Festival. Our chorus sang as their special numbers, Verdant Meadows. The ability of both Miss Leslie and Miss Carr to select and direct high grade music made each member feel that being' a meinber of the chorus had been a great privilege. +Jane Swick Page Twenty-Eight GIRLS' GLEE CLUB Top Row: Carol Carey, Mary Catherine Wherry.

In the meantime, Auntie Bean, has a time of it keeping' the Bean farm out of the redf' all this unknown to Betty. When Auntie sees a chance to make an honest dollar by renting' out rooms to a glamouroius young artist from the city, in search of local color, she welcomes the opportunity. Got-do,n's tthe artistl sister has come down fiom the city to keep him company. The village Squire, a penurious big-shot, offers Auntie Bean five hundred dollars for her home, realizing that she is desperate, and Auntie, the simple soul, is about to accept, when Betty Jane returns. Then things really begin to happen! Betty's polish is beginning to shine! And., Gordon is attracted to her. In an effort to escape a pursuing society belle, who is encouraged by his aristocratic mother, Gordon proposes to Betty Jane. She ac- cepts, much to the horror of all concerned! When Gordon's mother learns of this, she comes flying' into battle! There ensues a clash between the city folks and their country cousins-and you can bet dollars to doughnuts that the country folk fight nobly! liven though Gordon's haughty mother threatens to disinherit him, and leave him penniless, a kind fate in- tervenes' -in the person of a representative of an Air Line with an offer to buy the Bean farm land as a landing field. The -Squire's efl'orts to put something over on Auntie are squetlched, Gordon and Betty Jane look forward to a normal and happy life in Punkin Lane, and all is well.

Xlx SYNOPSIS A cow in its natural environment can be a pleasant sight. But a cow in a base- ment garage can be both a riotous catastrophe and a disguisedblessing, as the Caldwell family can testify. WVilbur Caldwell is anxious to market his wrinkle-less soap. In an ellort to sell stock in the venture, he establishes his family -Millie, his wife, anpd their children, Ann and Fred--in an exclusive residential district. Actually, the Caldwells' bank ac- count' is at the vanishing point, but the fact has been closely guarded from the neighbors. The morning after Wilbur returns from a fishing' trip at Pine Lake, Millie and the children discover a cow in the basement garage. Because of a note left by Wilbur before going to the office, it appears he brought home the cow for a pet. Millie is horrified, particularly as Mrs. Van, a supposedly wealthy socialite, is momentarily expected at the Caldwell home. Mrs. Van arrives as Millie is vainly at- tempting to persuade Wellington, a truck driver, to haul the cow away. Millie, in pan- ic, forces Wellington into a closet. From that moment the Caldwells' laughable troube les begin.

First was the Washington Monument, a stupendous shaft of granite, 555 feet high, then to the Pan-American Union, one of the most beauti- ful buildings in Washington, maintained for the development of commerce, friendship, and peace. Next we walked to the White House, where we were allowed to pass through the lower corridors and look upon the East .Room and the Blue Room. In the Federal Bureau of Investigation we were told. of the many ways of investigating crime and were shown many weapons of captured criminals. In the Bureau of Printing and Engraving, a branch of the Treasury, are printed all national currency and govern- ment documents. The average daily output is between six and seven million dollars in value. In the Capitol we were given a very iinteresting guide who directed us to the House of Representatives and the Senate where Vice President Wallace was presiding We visited Congressman Clevenge-r's suite of rooms, and he gave us a short' talk. That evening we went downtown to the quizz program of two cities -eWashington and Baltimore. We had two representatives on the program, Miss La Vonne Fry and Mr. Linn. The Washington, team won. Friday we journeyed to Mount Vernon, the home of George Washington. From there we went to the Naval Academy at Annapolis. Since this was Decoration Day, the sailors were having a holiday. We then went to the Arlington Memorial Amphitheatre, the Tomb of the Unknown, Soldier of the World War No. 1, and Lee's Mansion, preserved as it was in the days of Lee. On the way back to the Tourist Camp that evening, we stopped at the Lincoln Memorial. On Saturday morning we were homeward bound. A guide took us through the Gettysburg Battle Fields.
