DWIGHT DARLING, B. S. in Ed. and M. A., Ohio State University; U. S. Naval Academy; Superintendent of Schools. SUPERINTENDENT Mr. Darling has been superintendent of the Crooks-ville Schools since 1930. He has proved himself an efficient executive and has done much to show the people of Crooksville that their schools can be of great value to them. He finds time in his multitude of duties to promote the only combination school and community newspaper in the State, the Crooksville Messenger. This year the paper gained national publicity for the work it was doing. Accomplishments this year include the completion of the new athletic field and the corridor between the two high school buildings in cooperation with the Works Progress Administration and the local Board of Education. Mr. Darling is an official in the Southeastern Ohio Education Association. PRINCIPAL This is Mr. Zollinger's seventh year as principal of the Crooksville High School. In these seven years he has established a reputation as a progressive school man and an excellent administrator. He has a way of handling questions that come to him in such a manner as to appear mild but to leave no doubt as to just what he expects. Many worthwhile accomplishments can be listed for Mr. Zollinger’s administration. The outstanding one for this year is the careful division of curricular and extra curricular duties among 14 teachers of the faculty. Mr. Zollinger also teaches two biology classes and supervises one study hall. Biology is one of his major interests. Mr. Zollinger is an active me'fnber of the Educational Council of the Ohio Education Association. HOWARD A. ZOLLINGER, B. S. in Agriculture, M.

WALSH FLEMING DILLEHAY BROWN HISTORY OF THE SENIOR CLASS Let us pause for a moment in the whirl of this busy world and look back upon the record of the class of 1937. From the east, west, north, and south came fifty-four happy children to enroll in the seventh grade. Going to school beside the high school made them a proud group of children. They had no more than settled down than they were called to go on to the eighth grade. This year a few new pupils were added. Five of the members portrayed parts in the junior high play, “Pollyanna.” This year the students worked hard to prepare for the thing which they had looked forward to for eight years, a high school student. In 1934 there were sixty-eight freshmen to start on the race for that worth while goal, a high school diploma. This was a large and intelligent class, which seemed worthy to do battle for its Alma Mater and early showed signs of that spirit that was later to make it respected by the underclassmen. The first job of these timid freshmen was to organize. As president they chose as their leader, Virginia Ellis. Herman Walsh was made vice-president, and Mary Thompson, secretary and treasurer. In that year Harriett Keates, Virginia Ellis, Robert Fleming, and Herman Walsh were elected to Student Council. The class was well represented in football and basketball. This same year the girls won the inter-class volley ball championship. Some of the class were seen in the glee club “Garden Minstrel”. When the class returned in the fall of 1935, there was the usual decrease in the enrollment, only fifty-three began the sophomore year. In the process of reorganizing the following officers were elected: Mary Thompson, president; Harriett Keates, vice-president; Lucille Boone, secretary-treasurer. Again Virginia Ellis, Herman Walsh, and Robert Fleming represented the class in Student Council. June Day was the fourth elected member, and Billy Kenny was there as basketball manager. The sophomores were very proud of June Day, Elda Oakley, Robert Fleming, and Jim Eveland for their fine performances in the glee club operetta, “And It Rained . Again this year the girls won the interclass basketball and volley ball championships. 1957 CRUX-HI-SKAN At the middle of the year four boys were taken into the Hi-Y Club. These four were Jerrold Roush, Marion Wolfe, Bob Fleming, and Herman Walsh. Several of the girls were taken into the Sokol and Future Homemakers clubs. In all sports this class was represented by several of the members. Genevieve Kuhn won first place in the sectional contest for Typing I. Five of the students took part in the Athens Dis-trict Scholarship Tests. Four out of five of the contestants placed. In the transition from the sophomore to the junior year the class again lost members. The enrollment was forty-five. This year the girls were eligible for membership in the Ifka Club. Early in the fall 25 were taken into the club and during this year worked hard to make the club a success. James Eveland was taken into the Hi-Y Club and two of the boys made officers. As junior class officers Herman Walsh was elected president; Harriett Keates, vice-president; and Lucille Boone, secretary-treasurer. One of the outstanding events of this year was the Junior-Senior Prom. Again this class helped to make up the team for the Scholarship tests at Athens. Those who participated were Lucretia Bess, Virginia Ellis, Marjorie Flickinger, Bob Fleming, Herman Walsh, and James May. Virginia Ellis took first place in the Sectional Commercial Contest for Shorthand I. Three of the students were given parts in the glee club operetta, “The Dizzy Baton.” The class has been well represented in both the girls’ and boys’ glee clubs all during its high school history. Those students interested in dramatics were thrilled when the announcement was made for the try-outs for the junior class play, “The Million Dollar Butler”. Eleven students were given parts and the rest of the class worked hard to make it a success. The proceeds were used for the annual Junior-Senior Prom. For the third year the girls were interclass champions. Many fast and exciting basketball and volley ball games were witnessed by spectators during the year. The year of dignity, the high-school end of the road, found forty-three members of the Class of 1937 enrolled. Dale Allton entered the class at the beginning of the second semester. Carroll Steele decided to work for the completion of certain courses rather than a diploma. Lucille Boone was absent all year for treatment at the Rocky Glen Sanitorium but kept up her work and graduated with the class. In all there were 43 candidates for diplomas. Herman Walsh was elected president of the class for this important year; Robert Fleming was elected vice-president; and Joan Brown, secretary. The class chose as its colors, silver and blue; the flower, American beauty rose; and the motto, “Small is the diploma, but mighty is the effort to win it.” The next most important event was the organization of the History “B Club. The officers were president, Marjorie Flickinger; vice-president, Virginia McKinney; secretary, Elizabeth Bauman. Four more members were taken into the Hi-Y and Herman Walsh, president, was the senior who headed all the activities. Again they were outstanding in the extra curricular activities. They had several members in the glee club and orchestra. Several of the students portrayed parts in the glee club operetta, “Shooting Stars.” One afternoon three persons were honored by being taken into the National Honor Society. These three were Lillian Frash, Virginia Ellis, and Herman Walsh. Only too soon were they coming in their travels close to the cross-roads—each student going straight ahead on the road to success, hoping that all underclassmen will follow in his footsteps and remember that— Lives of great men all remind us We can ma e our lives sublime. And departing leave behind us. Footprints on the Sands of Time. SENIORS DALE ALLTON, General Course “B Club; Sr. Play Staff.

Vice President .... Secretary-Treasurer Evelyn McGuire ......Jean Hull ....Betty Watts HISTORY The members of the class of 1938 have taken part in a large per cent of school activities. In 1935 Eugene Hull, Eldon Clawson and Frank Woodward won honors at the scholarship contest in Athens. In 1936 our representatives also gathered high honors. Two members of our class, Betty Watts and Eugene Hull, were taken into the National Honor Society this year. Our representatives to Student Council this year were Guy Butler, Frank Woodward, Eleanor Cusick, and Marcella Fleming. Our class has been well represented in glee clubs, Hi-Y, Ifka, Sokol and Future Homemakers organizations. Eugene Hull and Charles Brown helped to furnish competition for opposing basketball teams, and Ben Gilliotte and Charles Brown were on the school football team. The girls in the class of 1938 have been volley ball “champs” for two years. Our members have been outstanding in dramatics. In 1934 Eugene Hull was a comedian in “I Like Your Nerve.” 1936 brought “The Dizzy Baton” with Jean Hull in one of the leads. To earn money for the Junior-Senior Prom the juniors presented “Life Begins at Sixteen,” which turned out to be an outstanding success. As seniors we hope to have a year of success and enjoyment as we have had as juniors. TRIBUTE We sincerely hope your four years as students in Crooksville High will be remembered and treasured by you in the years to come. As the years roll by, we shall expect to see you climb high in your chosen professions. We shall remember you always, class of 1937, as patient, helpful, and outstanding in your school work. May these characteristics remain with you always. THE JUNIORS per Fran Woodward JUNIORS FIRST ROW: Richard Brannon, Betty Mears, Edward Cryder, DeVerne Young, Ah bert Talbot.

Dale Dicken Vice President....................................................... Lois Day Secretary and Treasurer ....................................... Jane Ellis The Sophomores, it would appear, are destined to be one of the outstanding classes of Crooksville High. Our school athletic teams are composed chiefly of representatives from this class. With a higher percentage of pupils on the honor roll than any other class, their scholastic standing is very high. For the past two years they have elected their four representatives to the Student Council. They have also been well represented in the various organizations of the school such as boys' and girls’ glee clubs, orchestra, Sokol, Future Homemakers, and the newly organized Science Club. Last year as freshmen, Lois Day, Jane Watts, and Mona Young brought honors to Crooksville High from the district scholarship tests at Athens. FRESHMAN HISTORY President ................................................. Paul McLean Vice President............................................ Curtis Watts Secretary and Treasurer .................................. Betty Ater This so-called “greenhorn” class is made up of seventy-two people. Perhaps they are not so green as painted as in comparison to the other students within C. H. S. At least the freshmen have managed to be heard of. They are represented in Student Council by Betty Ater, Violet Neff, Curtis Watts, and Raymond Warren. This class, as the others, has class officers, members in the glee clubs, Sokol Club, Future Homemakers, orchestra, and the Science Club. The upperclassmen have a successful future prophesied for this class. EIGHTH GRADE FIRST ROW: Hill, Annon, Bowers, Kenny, Dalrymple, Lemert, J Allen, Bob Wilson, Dutcher, K. Watts, Sharpe.

This year improvements in their scholastic schedule, a prepared course for high school, were made by the purchase of new math books which gives them a wider background for algebra and geometry. As a result of limiting home economics and manual arts to the eighth grade, these students could spend two periods each day on then-projects and thus accomplish much more than in former years. Another of this class's chief interests was intramural games. Many members ot the class were very active in intramural sports. The Student Council representatives were Janet Bonifant and Gene Hill. This group was well represented in the Crooks-ville High School Orchestra. A happy and successful high school career for you, eighth graders. SEVENTH GRADE HISTORY East is East and West is West and never the twain shall meet. Not so in the case of the seventh graders for that grade brings together the boys and the girls of the east side of town with those of the west side, and they meet in grand fashion. The seventh grade is represented in Student Council by Jean Swingle and Douglas Talbot. Several of the members performed in the grade school carnival program last year. The upperclassmen are expecting big things from these students so, don't disappoint us, seventh grade. HISTORY OF CROOKSVILLE Crooksville was in 1846 known as Reed's Station”. The first small blue bird pottery shop was founded by Larzelere Burley in the same year. When Joseph Crooks arrived in 1867, he found but four houses. In 1869 the post office was established, and Reed's Station donned the name of Crooksville after Joseph E. Crooks, who was the small town’s first postmaster. By 1900 the population had grown to 835. The population outgrew the number of homes and in 1903 Guy E. Crooks ac-quired the 71-acre Elizabeth Brown farm, plotted it, and began to sell the lots. Potteries multiplied and coal was mined and shipped on a large scale. By 1925 the population was estimated at about 4,000. Five school buildings furnished the means of education, and four practically new churches existed. Paved streets, electric lights, a $5,000 fire department, modern water works costing $100,000, were in existence by the dawn of 1928. The oil boom struck the town in '28 and many residents became wealthy overnight. And now in the year 1937, Crooksville is lacking just nine years of being a century old. In those 91 years she has grown from a small blue bird pottery town to a medium-sized industrial city. Let us hope she continues to grow and prosper. CROOKSVILLE HIGH INSTALLS POINT SYSTEM When school closed for vacation last year, plans were being made by the Student Council and coaches for a point system to be used in awarding letters to Crooksville High athletes. The system was installed to make the letter mean more to the boy who had earned it. Now with the point system in effect in order to receive a monogram the boy must play in at least two varsity sports and must have a total of not less than 1500 points per season. This last requirement may be overruled by the Point System Committee when a boy is injured or is handicapped by illness and does not have a chance to earn his award, if he has been an outstanding athlete. The Point System Committee is composed of Mr. Zollinger, principal; Mr. Pap-ritan, football and baseball coach; Mr. Walter, basketball coach; and Gilbert Barker and Bob Fleming, members elected from Student Council. 19 3 7 CRUX-HI-SKAN BOOK II 9he ylthletictf The Crooksville High School is well represented in sports such as football in the Fall, basketball in the Winter, and baseball in the Spring. Above is pictured Billy Kenny, the first boy to receive the senior athletic award under the new point system. Billy has actively participated in all varsity competition and intramural games throughout his four years in this school. Football Squad FIRST ROW: R.

Channel, Miller, I. Yoder CRUX-HI-SKAN CERAMICS' FOOTBALL SEASON UNSUCCESSFUL Due to the lack of veteran material the Ceramics' football machine just could not supply the zest that makes a championship team this year. The season was perhaps the poorest season Crooksville has ever experienced. Not one game was won the entire season. The team did not have the veterans that Crooksville teams have had in the past. The team also lacked in weight. In some of the games the local team held the opponents to a comparatively low score and there was a showing of improvement, but the next week might find the team the very opposite in spirit and knowledge of the game. Probably the game that was the hardest to lose was the one to Roseville. Incidentally this was the first game that Roseville had ever won from the locals over the long period that the two teams have battled. Up against better teams, such as Glouster, the boys showed real spirit and willingness to fight. Glouster took first place in the Big Six League, but C. H. S. was able to hold them to a 6-0 score. The class of 1937 contributed heavily to this first squad. Walsh, Fleming, Channel, and Spears will all be missed from the line next year. Wolfe and Kenny graduate from the backfield. The first squad was composed of Barker and Spears, ends; Hill and Channel, tackles; Walsh and Butler, guards; Fleming, center; Wolfe, quarterback; Luster, fullback; Kenny and Yoder, halfbacks. Herman Walsh, captain of the team, was selected for the Big Six League first team.

In spite of the fact that he was our new coach, he did well in selecting the varsity team, with only two lettermen back, Kenny and Cook. Early in the season the Ceramics got off to a flying start by walloping Deaver-town, only to come back the next week losing to a scrappy New Lex five 23-21. The Ceramics provided many thrills for the fans, being nosed out several times against strong quintets, especially New .Lex, Roseville, and New Concord, also nosing out the strong McConnelsville, McLuney, and Caldwell teams. In Big Six competition, the Ceramics only won 2 out of their 10 starts against strong foes. The varsity team was built from two seniors, Kenny, Cook; four juniors, Hull, Spears, Weese, Brown; and three sophomores, Luter, Barker, Hill. Hull was the point getter this year, averaging 10 points a game. Kenny and Cook will be lost by graduation. Spears, who is honorary captain, will also end his services this year. Depending largely upon the veteran players who will return next year, Crooksville should have a good team. The Reserve squad had a successful season, winning half of its games. Many saw service in the varsity games when called upon.

The minor league was not quite so thrilling. Many of the games were forfeited because of lack of players and for this reason was disbanded for the second round of play.

T 19 3 7 LKUA-ni- KA BOOK III 9he Activities Every student within this high school is offered the opportunity of being in the many organizations and clubs. The faculty takes an active part in the development of the extracurricular interests. As has been proved, the existence of clubs and organizations brings about a relationship between the teachers and the students otherwise impossible. Miss Dillehay, senior class advisor, has been one of the most faithful friends of extracurricular activities. She is solely responsible for two of the leading organizations, Ifka and B Club. NATIONAL HONOR SOCIETY Members National Honor Society Lillian Frash, Eugene Hull, Virginia Ellis, Herman Walsh and Betty Watts. American Legion Award Candidates B lly Lemert, Betty Jane Hearing, Gene Hill. Second row: Janet Bonifant, Robert Cope, and June Dillehay. The highest honor attainable in our high school is membership to the National Honor Society, an organization that is nationally recognized. The requisites for this honor are leadership, character, service, and honor. The class of 1937 contributed three candidates, Lillian Frash, Virginia Ellis, and Herman Walsh; the class of 1938 two, Betty Watts and Eugene Hull. Lillian Frash has taken part in practically every musical production of the Crooksville High School s Glee Clubs. Lillian s scholastic rating was the highest of the three senior members to the society. She was very active in all intramural sports, and served her class and school whenever called upon. Herman Walsh has, by all means, been the outstanding boy in his class. He has been president of his class for two consecutive years, and is president of the Hi-Y Club. He has been a representative in the Student Council all during his high school career. He took part in varsity football and is a member of the Big Six Football Team. Indeed, he is very deserving of the honor of being a National Honor Society member. Betty Watts, a junior member, has lead her class scholastically ever since her entrance into high school. Betty was a member of the Scholastic Team sent to Athens in 193V She was a member of the Student Council in 1936, and is now a member of the Ifka Club. Eugene Hull, an all-around fellow , is certainly deserving of membership to this honorable organization. He has appeared in many musicals of the glee clubs. He is a member of Hi-Y, Sports Club, and was a member of the Student Council. Eugene has taken part in practically every school activity. Virginia Ellis has the second highest scholastic average of the three senior members. She is the most prominent girl of the class. As a freshman, Virginia was president of the class and now presides over Student Council and Ifka. Her service was always given whenever possible as is shown by her being voted the girl who has done most for the school. AMERICAN LEGION AWARD CANDIDATES The Junior High students may attain just as high an honor as the Senior High students by winning the Legion Award. They are selected as candidates under the same principles as the National Honor Society. One boy and one girl from the above group will receive the American Legion Awards of Merit. 19 3 7 CRUX-HI-SKAN HI-Y CLUB First Row—James Evcland, Eldon Clawson, Frank Woodward, Robert Fleming, faculty advisor Mr. Fell.

A. for the purpose of creating, maintaining, and extending throughout the school, and the community higher standards of Christian living. Each year of its existence has seen an increase in the accomplishment of these things. Membership is limited to the boys of the junior and senior classes who have the necessary qualifications. Nine boys joined the club this year. Meetings are held twice a month at the high school, one of which is held at night and includes a program and refreshments. Functions held during this year were swimming parties at the Y. M. C. A. and an unusual party held March 12. The club made contributions to the Red Cross Flood Relief, and worked with Ifka and Student Council in the campaign for new books for our library.

Harnett Keates Treasurer ............................................ Virginia McKinney The Ifka Club was organized in the Crooksville High School five years ago by Miss Dillehay. Since that time the girls of the junior and senior classes have made up this interesting group of Girl Reserves whose purpose is to find and give the best. In past years the club has contributed to the milk fund for unfortunate children, has given money to the Crooksville Community Christmas Tree Fund, and entertained the less fortunate children of the town at Christmas, and participated in many other worthwhile enterprises. This year has proved to be not unlike other years. The girls' main project of the year was the beginning of a fund to be loaned to some worthy Ifka girl for college tuition. This amount will be added to until a sufficient sum is acquired. Swimming parties, theatre parties, and a travel party were enjoyed during the year. The Mother-Daughter banquet was an outstanding event of the term. It was held in April. Each girl was inspired to bigger and nobler things by the code, which is— Gracious in Manner, Impartial in Judgment, Ready for Service, Loyal to Friends, Reaching Toward the Best, Earnest in Purpose, Seeing the Beautiful, Reverent to God, Victorious Over Self, Ever Dependable, Sincere at All Times. 19 3 7 CRUX-HI-SKAN STUDENT COUNCIL President ................................................... Virginia Ellis Vice President ............................................. Herman Walsh Secretary-Treasurer ........................................ Alberta Lowry Sergeant-at-arms ........................................ Frank Woodward The Student Council of the Crooksville High School is a group of elected and appointed members from each class united as a form of student government. The high school classes are represented by four members each, and the junior high by two members from each grade appointed by Miss Ruth Snell, junior high school principal. At the beginning of each school year the Student Council treasury is replenished with fifty dollars from Messenger subscriptions. Then each week during the school term three dollars is paid by the printer. Improvements about the school are made from this source. Committees of the council, which are appointed by the president, strive for better conditions in the school, and harmony between the teachers and the students. This year the members of the organization undertook the sponsoring of a Boy Scout Trcxip, which has never been attempted by any other school club. At the beginning of football season the council contributed $5.00 for medical supplies that were badly needed. Contributions to worthy causes were readily made by this group. The acquiring of a new sound motion picture machine was strongly supported by these class representatives. As is the usual custom, the council purchased ten of the seniors’ year books. A Valentine party was one of the recreational activities of the council this year. The members entertained the football and basketball boys with a banquet the last week in April. At the close of each school year, officers for the ensuing year are elected so that work can be begun soon after school is resumed.

Jim Eveland as Dumb Dollivar stole the show, and Eugene Locke as Vanelli (maybe Vanilla) will be remembered for his wclhspoken Italian. The cast of the senior play with the exception of Robert Fleming. Herman Walsh as Old Cap was excellent in his portrayal of a man of experience. Bob Fleming as One'Gun Hampton thrilled the audience with his rough voice and manner. Patty and Dollivar have a time with their ro mance, but it finally did end all right; Giddy had a great time criticising Vanelli (Vanilla) to her.

Junior Class Play staff. 19 3 7 CRUX-HI-SKAN DRAMATIC SEASON DUMB DOLLIVAR The class of 1937 presented its last dramatic performance, Dumb Dollivar, Friday evening, May 7. Dollivar Dodds, Jim Eveland, is in love with Patty Hampton, Harriet Keates. He tries to be secretary to her father, Robert Fleming, in order to get in his good graces. Tito Vanelli, played by Eugene Drcke, tries to marry Patty but when his plot of marrying for money is learned, Patty’s father favors Dollivar. Elsa Breckman, Eileen Hoops, also attempts to snag Mr. Hampton for his riches but she is foiled and Hampton takes Mrs. Hawkins, keeper of Holly Inn, Virginia Ellis, for his wife. Wong, Jerrold Roush; and Fan Toy, Lucretia Bess, are servants at the Inn. Old Cap, a teller of tall tales, Herman Walsh, tries to help Dollivar in his efforts to gain the attentions of Mr. Hampton. LIFE BEGINS AT SIXTEEN The junior class of 38 presented its yearly play, “Life Begins at Sixteen,” Friday, February 5, 1937, under the direction of Eva Coulter. The story, a comedy of youth, captures the language, spirit, ambition, and joys of a person who has, at some time, been 16!

Betty Watts was assistant director; Betty Mears, prompter, and Charles Brown, stage manager. ORCHESTRA HAS SUCCESSFUL YEAR The Crooksville High School Orchestra completed a very successful year under the supervision of Miss Mary Watkins. The orchestra practiced at least two times a week and held extra rehearsals for special performances. The orchestra has played for most of the entertainments which were presented at the high school. Much credit must be given to Miss Watkins who came to us this year from Bel-laire, Ohio. She has had two years of experience in teaching. The orchestra is composed of the following: Pianist, Elda Gail Oakley; violins, Jean Tatman and Virginia Taylor; saxophones, Bonnie Jean Rambo, Bonibelle Allard, Jim and Robert Eveland; cornets, Theodore Allen, Alfred Dunn, and Rosalie McMillan; clarinets, Betty Hoover, Robert McMillan, Marilyn Love, and Raymond Warren; trombones, Robert Cope, Gene Hill and Dale Dicken; mellophone, Robert Hawk; baritone, John Price; drum, Fred Hill. There is also a beginners' orchestra this year. The first semester the young people took individual lessons and the second semester they met together once a week to practice as a group. BAND WORTHY OF PRAISE For the first time in history, Crooksville High School has really had a band. The band is composed of nineteen students under the direction of the new music instructor from Bellaire, Ohio, Miss Mary C. Watkins. The call for volunteers went out at the first of the year and met with hearty response. Interest and enthusiasm marked the band from the beginning as a growing organization. The band proved its worth when it represented Crooksville High School’s activities such as basketball games, operettas, plays, and assemblies. This year's work has shown not only the present ability, but holds the promise of future possibilities. The foundation was laid last year by Crooksville High's former music supervisor, Miss Thelma Thomas, who raised the necessary funds in order to purchase the instruments the band lacked. After the instruments were purchased, Miss Thomas gave each pupil individual lessons in order to get the members in the band in shape for this year's performances. CRUX-HI-SKAN ORCHESTRA BAND The Prom Once every year the gymnasium is transformed into a garden nite club by the Junior Class for its last tribute to the Seniors before they leave dear C H S. for the outside world. With the money taken in by the Junior Play, they hire an orchestra to furnish the dance rhythms and also purchase the decorations. This is one night of the year when studies are forgotten and everyone comes prepared for a gay time—and has it! This annual event is known as the Junior-Senior Prom. Junior Party In March the Junior Class sponsored a party at which the Seniors were guests. This party was conducted like a miniature prom. Jim Eveland's orchestra furnished the music for the dancing. A grand march and a circle waltz were enjoyed and punch and cookies were served. One of the enjoyable features was a floor show in which members of the Junior Class participated. It was rumored that everyone who attended went home eager for the prom date to roll around. THESE AND THOSE Top—Librarians— What book please . The new Student Council Bov Scout Troop No. 33. Center—Messenger Editors, Commercial Contest Team, Recruits for Troon No. 33. Lower—American History B Club, Future Homemakers. THE LIBRARIANS Sixteen girls were appointed at the first of the year to assist Mr. Fell with the library. Two different girls take charge each period of the day. Their work is to assist students in finding material, to maintain good conduct, and to be able to recommend good reading. The policy inaugurated this year in collecting a two-cent fine for each day a book is overdue, has proved very successful not only in getting books back on time, but providing money to be used in purchasing materials for the library. This year approximately fifty new books have been added to the library and fifty old books have been cleaned and rebound. 19 3 7 CRUX-HI-SKAN SCOUT TROOP 33 The Crooksville High School Student Council and the Faculty organized Scout Troop 33 this year. This undertaking is the first of its kind ever attempted by a high school organization. There are twelve charter members. Amos Snide was elected as scout master with Harold Poole as his assistant. The members of the troop elected Gene Hill as scribe. The faculty committee is W. D. Darling, chairman; William F. Worthington, treasurer, and James C. Papritan. The members from left to right are Robert Fleming, Everett Semon, Jimmy Cry-der, Billy Neff, Gene Hill. Back row: Mack Watts, Robert Rambo, Robert Flick- ingcr, Mr. Snide, Keith Watts, Edwin Pitcock, Billy Lemert. NEW SCOUTS IN TROOP 33 Six more boys were added to Scout Troop 53, making a total of eighteen. Tom Barley, a member, is acting as senior patrol leader. The new members are Bob Ater, Douglas Talbot, Joe Garvin, Jack Rhinehart, and Robert Bauman. FUTURE HOMEMAKERS Since 19.54 the Future Homemakers Association has been a prominent organization of the Crooksville High School. It was organized by Miss Louise Crawford. Those girls who have enrolled in Home Economics class and have received passing grades for six months are eligible for membership. Money earned by selling candy and soft drinks at basketball and football games was used for new equipment and camping funds. The officers of the club are Norma Aichele, president; Harriett Keates, vice-president; Mona Young, secretary; Faye Channel, treasurer; and Eileen Hoops, degree captain and historian. HISTORY ”B CLUB Pr«icl«nt .................................. Marjorie Flickinger Vice President ............................. Virginia McKinney Secretary .................................. Elizabeth Bauman The History “B” Club of Crooksville High School was first organized in 1950 with Miss Dillehay as faculty supervisor. The membership of the club consists of those persons averaging a B or above in their six weeks grade of American History. The purpose of the club is to develop a greater interest in history, and to stimulate a desire for more extensive work. The club is one of the extra activities in the curriculum of the high school. The meetings of the club are held monthly at the high school building. The members invite speakers to talk on the different phases of history and reports are given by the members. COMMERCIAL CONTESTANTS Sixteen students represented Crooksville in the annual commercial contest held at the Cnxiksville High Schcxil on April 17, 1957. Their opponents were Caldwell and McLuney, who were also well represented. The Crooksville team has placed the last three times it has participated in this event. MESSENGER EDITORS To hold the position as editor of the “Messenger”, a student must be thoughtful and willing to work, as well as a good reporter. A new editor is appointed every six weeks by Mr. Darling, the journalism teacher. Virginia Ellis was the first editor, followed by Herman Walsh. The other editors were Virginia McKinney, Letha Stanbery, June Day, and Bob Fleming or Elizabeth Bauman.

Church, presented a two-act operetta, “Shooting Stars , and sang in assembly periods when called upon. Due to lack of members the boys' glee club became the boys' quartette. This quartette included Addison Watts, Ja k Gross, James Eveland, and Eugene Hull. SOKOL Sokol is a girls' organization that was organized by Mr. Papritan in 193 3. The general object is to create enthusiasm in physical education activities. It also strives to achieve high standards of leadership and cooperation within the gym classes. Membership is limited to those girls interested in activities and physical education work. Every year the girls give a chili supper for the basketball boys, in addition to other parties and picnics. The officers are president, Norma Aichele: vice-president, Jane Watts: secretary, Bettv Ater; treasurer, Eleanor Cusick: faculty advisor, Mr. Papritan. SHOOTING STARS The glee club's musical production this year was “Shooting Stars, presented on December 10, 1936. The new music instructor, Miss Mary Watkins, directed the musical parts. Carl Fell assisted with the dramatic part, and Beatrice Tedrow the dancing. The scene of the story is laid in a motion picture lot in Hollywood. A director is busy shooting a new picture, hence the name, Shooting Stars.

CRUX-HI-SKAN BOOK IV ffhe features Beyond this page you will encounter many humorous and serious snapshots that every high school student will regard with fond memory as years go by. To the advertisers must be given sincere thanks from every student within C. H. S. for their coopera t:on to make such pleasant memories possible. PERSONALITY Muscular ability won for Lucretia, Ears, and Alberta, the title outstanding senior athletes. June Day and Alex Seltzer are certainly deserving of the title, most talkative seniors. Sincerity in school work has won for Marjorie Flickinger and George Warren the title of most likely to succeed. Be careful what you say. Virginia and James are sure to blush. By a large majority Bob Fleming and Wilma Brown were voted as the best looking seniors. By all means, Lillian Frash and Jim Eveland are the most talented seniors. Their participation in many school activities won for Virginia Ellis and Herman Walsh, the title done most for school. “Romantic is the word for Joan Brown and Eugene Locke. 19 3 7 CRUX-HI-SKAN SENIOR TIPS Jerrold Roush—“If generosity carried weight, I'd be full of it.

They named it for the man who insisted that it be built. The W. P. A. workers said it wouldn't work. Others said that the W. P. A. workers wouldn't work. NEW FRATERNAL HOMES The American Legion and the Knights of Pythias are both in new, spacious homes. Their buildings add to our town. We congratulate these organizations. OUR BAND At last we have a C. H. S. Band that is worthy of praise; one that we are proud to hear in public. Under the direction of Miss Watkins this musical organization, that was first planned by Miss Thomas, blossomed out rapidly and added lots of pep to our basket ball games. THE CORRIDOR Finally after much talk and a long wait the W. P. A. and the local Board of Education were able to build the connecting corridor between the Senior and Junior High buildings. Fewer colds and more comfort is predicted for the students of the future. NEW INDUSTRY AND BUSINESS This year saw the establishment of new industry and business in Crooksville including: The Ceramic Supply Company, and Robb's, Barker's and Neff's new service stations.
