We have tried to make it a true reflector of our school life and work, and as such we hope it may hold many fond memories in the years to come. This book has been made possible by a loyal class, and by interested instructors and patrons to whom we wish to express our sincere appreciation. We hope that you will like it and that it will prove interesting as well as helpful to you. We also hope that you will pardon, or better, overlook our mistakes, for you must remember that we are but amateurs, and cannot be expected to give you a product equal to that of a professional. If it but makes the love and spirit of the student deeper and more true, and the friendship of our people more true, then and onlv then will our aim have been accomplished, and our hopes fulfilled. 1923 THE STAFF.

GEORGE NUSSDORFER, who has been with us since we started in the first grade at Oak Grove, is our janitor, and he is also one of our best friends, always ready to befriend us in any trouble or emergency. MRS. CATHERINE BOYER has been in high school as long as we have, and has always given us the best service we could wish. She is not only a friend to all. hut also an adviser of the finest type. MR. J. A. McGONNIGAL, better known as “Mac.” poses as our fireman and engineer, but in reality he is one of the best friends that any high school boy could wish.

June Romig, Herbert IN MEMORIAM Faith Wassem Class of 1926 Vol. 8 CRIMSON AND 1923 IN APPRECIATION At this time, we, the members of the Senior Class wish to express our heartfelt appreciation and thanks to the faculty for their wonderful support and efforts in our behalf during our four years in high school. It is with regret as we think, not only that our high school days are over, but also, that we will no longer be under the supervision of those whom we have caused to have many a tedious hour. In parting, our sincere wish is that in the memories of the classes to come may there be as cherished a place held, as in the memories of ’23, for the FACULTY of D. H. S. Coach J. W. Trautwein ATHLETICS ATHLETICS IN GENERAL The adopted policy of athletics in Dover High School seems to include a high standard of coaching supplemented by a reasonably high standard of scholarship on the part of the personnel of the different teams. The thrill and enthusiasm connected with competitive sports is one thing eminently worth while; but the stimulus that is gained by this means should he put to use in some fashion that will benefit the contestant in a still more enduring way. There is no good reason why each player should not have lasting benefit as well as pleasure out of the arrangement. Athletics have been found on numerous occasions to be the highway to many a boy’s worldly ambitions. It not only makes school life pleasant, but it also makes it worth while. Properly governed athletics make better students and promote a more wholesome spirit among the members of a school than might otherwise obtain; and it naturally follows that good students make better athletes than do those who have poor or disused mental equip-ment. for athletic games are played quite as much with the head as with other portions of the body. Very much of the excellent spirit that pre vails in our high school athletics has been due to the prescience and tireless labors of Coach WMliam J. Trautwein during the past two years. Mr. Trautwein is a big man in every way. There have been times when the followers of the team wavered somewhat in their support, for the simple reason that some of the teams did not win as consistently as was desired. Hut on these occasions the coach always rose to the occasion and vindicated his policies by producing the desired results. To meet tests of this kind is the true measure of a man’s bigness. Mr. Trautwein will have an athletic home in Dover as long as he may wish, and when he finally goes to fields of greater opportunities he will leave behind him traditions that will command respect from all classes of people. 1 Harold E. MacMillan, “Mac”—Assistant Coach and Faculty Manager of Athletics. Mac came to us as a teacher and remained as an adviser and a friend. He has been a large factor in the success of our athletics this year, and a great deal of credit is due him for this quality. He has placed athletics on a financial basis which has never been found in Dover High before. While his methods in some cases have been somewhat strenuous, we feel that he has only done what is right, and we wish him success in any of his undertakings in future years, not only in Dover High, but wherever he may be. Russel E. Zollar. “Russ”—Student Manager of Athletics. This is his first year as manager of athletics in Dover High, and we are sorry to say that it will he his last as he belongs to the Class of 1923. As a manager he has always been efficient and the athletic service given us has always been of his best. We look for great things to come from this young man in the future, and we expect to hear from him in later years. Captain Millard Groh. FOOTBALL FOOTBALL This year Dover High had one of the l est seasons she has ever had. which was mainly due to the excellent leadership of Mr. Trautwein and Mr. McMillan. Although our team did not win all their games, their losses were to some of the most formidable teams in the state. At first call the squad was very large, but as usual the number soon diminished rapidly, until the squad only contained about nineteen men at the end of the season. However, it was due to this handful of men that our team was as good as it was. and they deserve the credit. The excellent support of the team by the students as well as the people of the town was also a great factor in our team’s success. Dover. 40 Dover 13 Dover 6 Dover 64 Dover 13 Dover.

Under these men. Dover High had one of its best football seasons in the history of the school. Although they did not win all of their games, their losses were to some of the most formidable teams in the state of Ohio. The squad at first call was very large and had some luminaries, but as usual many of the men who did not make the first team or become substitutes dropped out. While many did not have a chance to play in a large number of the games, they came out to the big game on Thanksgiving Day. One thing that we feel was a great aid to this year’s success on the gridiron was the wonderful spirit shown at the games, and also at other times, by the people of Dover, the students, and faculty of Dover High. CAMBRIDGE VS. D. H. S. Dover opened up its season by defeating Cambridge High on the local field by the score of 40 to 6. In this game Dover surpassed its opponents in all departments. The bucking of Xigro through which he scored four touchdowns, was the feature of the game. In defense “Bob” Miller showed marked ability in stopping plays, and he continued to improve in this during the entire season. The line held at all times and played like veterans. Cambridge was very fortunate in securing her lone touchdown by a long forward pass. CARROLLTON AND WOOSTER GAMES. Dover High had an easy time defeating Carrollton here, the week following the Akron game, by the score of 64 to 0. The following week Dover was defeated by Wooster by the score of 39 to 13. After the first eight minutes of play Dover scored the first touchdown. Then losing the services of Maus and Young because of injuries, they lost their fighting spirit. King and Russell starred for the visitors. UHRICHSVILLE VS. D. H. S. Although not being defeated by Uhrichsville for four years. Dover finally met her Waterloo to the tune of 20 to 0. While not being outclassed as much as the score would indicate. Dover put up some ragged football. Uhrichsville luckily got away with some long forward passes that spelled defeat for Dover. STEUBENVILLE VS. D. H. S. Next on our schedule, unluckily for Dover. was Steubenville. This was the second time they had defeated us in as many years. Last year we were defeated in Steubenville 7 to 0, and this year here 20 to 7. In the first half Steubenville got all its points, but this did not worry Dover. In the second half she came back and outplayed and outfought the river town bunch. But the score was too much to overcome. Maus again displayed his ability in carrying the ball. MILLERSBURG VS. D. H. S. Dover journeyed to Millersburg and won their second victory by the score of 13 to 6. The game was very ragged in parts and Dover did not play up to standard. The game was played under many handicaps, the referee figuring in no small way. Dover .was saved from defeat by two feature runs. The first touchdown was made by Ben Miller, who. by breaking through the line, picked up a fumble and ran fifty yards for a touchdown. The second was made by Xigro. who caught a forward pass and, squirming out of the hands of several opponents, ran twenty yards for a touchdown. AKRON SOUTH VS. D. H. S. On the next journey and game. Dover received its first defeat by the score of 20 to 6. The team had to walk over half of Akron before they could play and were more ready for bed than for a football game. Although outplayed in all departments of the game, they were not disgraced by a defeat at the hands of a team in the class of Akron South. Stanford was the main downfall of the Dover team. His running and passing was the best Dover encountered this season. APPLE CREEK VS. D. H. S. The school was looking for an easy game before we played New Philadelphia and took on Apple Creek who gave us a surprise, and almost defeated us. Eugene Young picked up a fumble and ran for a touchdown, which saved us from a tie game. The first half ended 18 to 6. but they came back strong in the second half and made Dover step. The final score was 18 to 12. NEW PHILADELPHIA VS. DOVER HIGH For the first time in the history of the two schools. Dover was able to defeat New Philadelphia on their own field. The team had trained for this game and the final result surely showed it. The whole team went into the game with plenty of fight and really deserved to win. They put up a wonderful defense and offense. Phila. got away with a trick play and carried the hall up to the five yard line before they were downed. It then took four downs to put it across. This showed the wonderful defense of Dover. The immense crowd, the bands, and the cheer leaders dressed in white reminded one of a college game. Nigro, by a wonderful line plunge for twenty yards, made Dover’s touchdown. Willoughby kicked goal and the game ended with the score of 7 to 6. D. H. S. RIALTO MILLARD GROH (CAPTAIN) “Mon” led the team in great style this year. Besides being a real peppy leader, he starred at left end. Since he was one of the best defensive ends Dover has ever seen, he often broke up the interference and tackled the man carrying the ball for losses. He also showed great ability on offense in carrying the ball on end runs and catching forward passes. He did part of Dover’s punting and when not doing this, went down under punts in great style. He will be with the team next year. TONY NIGRO Tony is another senior whose place will be hard to fill next year. This was Tony’s first year on the backfield. but he played like a veteran, doing ec|ually well at halfback and fullback. He was a hard runner, could turn a twist, and was never downed until he was flat on the ground. He was the biggest point scorer of the team and displayed his ability against New Philadelphia when he ran fifteen yards for Dover’s only touchdown. FRANCIS MAUS “Mousie” alternated at fullback and halfback with Tony. As a real football player who never said die” but always fought that much harder, he was one of the main cogs in the football team, and a factor in Dover Hi’s success this year. His services will be greatly missed by Dover High next year, since he is a member of the graduating class. ROBERT MILLER “Dutch” was the big center who outplayed all his opponents. When it came to a showdown he was in a class by himself. He was one of the most aggressive players on the team, and time after time, he broke through to get a tackle or block a punt. He could pass the ball with accuracy and speed, and was often called back to carry the ball, which he did very creditably. He was a bear on following up punts and is captain-elect for next year—which speaks for itself. GLEN WILLOUGHBY The lean lanky boy who started out at end but on his ability to tackle and block was later placed at tackle, was also called back to carry the ball and was able to tear off large gains around the end. He was a master at roll blocking. He showed his ability at drop kicking when he sent the ball between the bars for a one point margin against Phila. EUGENE YOUNG Scrap Iron. always faithful, was our punter. He was a real bearcat when it came to playing guard, and surely could be depended upon to get his man. He opened holes big enough for even Dutch Trautwein to go through. He never was an individual player and worked hard only for the team and school. “Coach Rochne and Notre Dame or bust is “Sera]) Iron’s” motto. WALTER MORRISON Bally” is another of the quiet kind who shined at guard. He was a real fighter and a clean player. Although he received an injury t the knee, he sure was there when he got back into the game. His place will be hard to fill next year, but hard places like that arc “Bally’s hobby. and he will surely fill it as he is a member of the junior class. HERBERT ZOLLARS This was Herb’s” first year on the team. He did not make a regular at first, but his grit and determination won him a place at end. He was hard to get around on defense and hard to keep from getting around on offense, as he carried the ball in great style. Stopping the return of a punt, and performing on the receiving end of a forward pass were his specialties. He will be with the team next year. IVOR GOODRICH “Goody” was light for a football player, but made up for his lack of weight by his speed, quick thinking, and ability to handle the ball. He started the year at half, but was changed to quarter, where he played the rest of the season. He used his head to advantage on the offense, � Vol. 8 1923 and returned punts with the best of them. The coach will have to find a new quarter next year as “Goody” is a member of “23.” BEN MILLER lien was Dover’s most consistent player, and was a wonder at tackle on offense and defense. He simply crushed play after play, and in that Phila. game—well, you should have seen him. With four years of service, he is one of the best players Dover ever turned out. Ben was always ready to do his bit in a hard and clean sportsman’s like way. In losing him. Dover High is losing one of its best players, as well as a good friend to all. RUSSELL BEERS Besides being the best looking first year man that ever donned a suit, “Bus” could hold his own with any of ’em. He was regular at half by the end of the year, and could dodge and twist like a Tony Xigro. He has three more years and should develop into a wonderful player. PAUL REEVES “Peck” was quarter at the beginning of the season, hut due to lack of experience was replaced by Goodrich who had more experience. Nevertheless this does not detract from the fact that Paul gave his best, and ought to he a strong contender for quarter next year. HAROLD BOWEN Harold is another member of the senior class who won his letter this year. He had been a member of the squad for the three years and surely deserved this acknowledgment of his faithfulness. He was a hard worker, had the fight, and played all positions on the line. PAUL VON-KAENAL “Von” alternated at tackle and guard. Although this was his first year, he proved to be a big asset to the team, in size and quality. His playing was not of the conspicuous kind, but it was consistent. He will be with the team next year. ROBERT KRANTZ “Bob” showed great improvement over last year. He was able to play any position on the team and being a hard worker, could play it well. Dover Hi is proud to have students of his caliber, and he will be greatly missed next year as he graduates with “23.” WILLIAM O DONNEL Although “Bill” is a junior this is his first year out. He certainly made up for lost time and ripped things up in general. In spite of his small stature, he did himself credit at fullback. This man should worry the opposing teams next year. Much credit is due the fellows who, although they did not make their letter, worked hard for the success of the team. They were: “Red” Moore, Claude Zimmerman. “Dode” Rosen-berry. John McCurdy, Glen Maybaugh, “Jim” Grimm, “Jim” McBride. “Chuck” Hughes. Tom Loessi. Eugene Lohrman. Samuel Ream. Gwilym Braun, Bruce Wilcoxon and John Wasmer. John was undoubtedly kept from making his letter because of a broken collarbone, sustained in the Carrollton game. Vol. 8 1923 DOVER 7 N. P. H. S. 6 A TOAST Here's a toast to the good old football days, The days of the golden fall. Where the varied throng has many a song To guide the bounding ball. Spring brings its track; and winter its sport, But to none are we half so attached As the autumn time when the sunbeams shine On two teams that are evenly matched. There’s a zip and zest to the game that draws, And a vigor we love to see. Oh ! no sport’s so fine in the annals of Time As the old game of football to me. Captain Goodrich BASKETBALL DOVER BASKETBALL GAMES DOVER 11—CAMBRIDGE 22 Dover started off her season with a defeat from Cambridge. The fact that Dover did not have a regular back from last year was the reason for the defeat. Gettle led Varsity’s scoring, while Jenkins was the star for the visitors. DOVER 19—EAST LIVERPOOL 21 Although Dover played a much better hand at basketball than they did the previous week, she lost her second home game of the season with East Liverpool. The game was full of thrills even if. at the end of the first half, East Liverpool was leading 13 to 8. In the second half Dover came up and several times tied the score, only to be left out in the final minutes of play. DOVER 18—WOOSTER 15 Dover journeyed to Wooster the following night and won its first game. The revenge for the awful trouncing given us in football was gained. The guarding was close on both sides, and at the close of the first half, the score was 7 to 6 in Dover’s favor. Dover was leading up until the last five minutes of play, when Sandy. Wooster’s forward, caged several baskets in quick succession, and they took the lead. But the Dover team showed her spirit and determination by overcoming them and winning. Goody displayed his ability by making four baskets and pitching four out of five fouls. DOVER 14—CAMBRIDGE 28 Plaving a very poor game of basketball. Dover was again defeated by the fast Cambridge team. The guarding was anything but good and again Goodrich was the only one that could find the basket. He made four. DOVER 41—UHRICHSVILLE 19. Dover achieved her second victory by completely outclassing the Uhrichsville team. In the first half Uhrichsville put up a very scrappy game, but in the second half Dover started to go thru their defense by passing and caging the 1 all at will. The visitors were soon so baffled that they did not know where the ball was half of the time. There was no individual star; the team as a whole played exceptionally well. DOVER 15—NEW PHILA. 22 Leading for three periods Dover was overcome in the last quarter and was beaten by their old rival. Xew Phila. The game was very fast and was hard fought. Dover used short and snappy passes, while Xew Phila. resorted to long passes. Luck certainly was with them because in the final quarter they made 11 points to our 3, and most of them were from the middle of the floor. Dover tried desperately to overcome them, but to no avail. More than one thousand persons witnessed the game and much cheering was done by both schools. DOVER 39—NEWCOMERSTOWN 19 When they were just recuperating from the Phila. game. Dover encountered a stiff opponent in the Xewcomerstown team. However, the Xewcomerstown team could not break thru our defense to get the necessary points. The shooting of Groh and Zollar was the outstanding feature of Dover’s playing. DOVER 20—CANTON 35 Playing one of the best teams in the state of Ohio, Dover was again defeated, but not disgraced by being beaten by such a team. Though small, the Canton team was a very fast and well-oiled machine. Their passing was spectacular and they could cage the ball from any angle of the floor. DOVER 10—MASSILLON 28 Playing in a very small gym and with two regulars out, Dover Hi was defeated by Wash- ington Hi at Massillon. The Dover bunch did not give the locals much opposition and the half ended 18 to 8 in favor of Massillon. It was in this half that Dover made their only basket of the game, the honor going to Willoughby. The pitching of fouls by Goodrich was the only shining light of the team's playing. TOURNAMENT Dover went to the tournament at Cambridge, held for the Class B schools in this section of the state. The team did not have much trouble beating the first two teams, first beating Marietta Junior Hi 18 to 13 and then taking Caldwell over for a 34 to 9 count, without the use of several regulars. They were then qualified to enter the semi-finals. There they met stiff opposition when they went up against the Wells-ville team who later took the tournament. Dover got away to a poor start and at the end of the first half they were trailing by 20 points, the score being 23 to 3. In the second half Dover tried to come back, but the score was too much to overcome, and they were defeated 34 to 17. DOVER 18—PHILA. 12 After again leading for three periods. New Phila. as usual, started on another rampage in the final quarter and took the lead. Dover, at the closing of the game, tied the score with a foul by Goodrich. At the end of the second half the score was 12 to 12. In the first two minutes of the five minute period overtime. Dover easily won the game by scoring three field baskets. The game was very rough. Capt. Macintosh and Cunningham of the New Phila. team were put out on personal fouls. Though the game was rugged in parts it did not lack interest because of the rivalry of the two teams. DOVER 23—UHRICHSVILLE 10 The annual scrap came off when Dover played Uhrichsville at their home town. It was even so rotten that Coach Robinson of Uhrichsville gave Coach Trautwein the contract for next year’s football game. Though the game was rough Dover put up a fine exhibition of basketball. The guarding of Groh and Zollar was exceptional, holding Uhrichsville to four points in the last half. DOVER 16— NEW PHILA. 24 Dover Hi played the tie off with Phila. for the cup and also for the county championship in this game. Phila. certainly played better hall than she did in the other games. The score at the end of the half was 12 to 9 in Phila’s. favor. At the beginning of the second half Willoughby made a basket, making the score 12 to 11. Then Phila. started, never to he stopped until they had a big lead. IVOR GOODRICH—“GOODY —CAPT. Captain of the year’s outfit. Was Dover Hi’s highest point getter. Was a very accurate foul shooter and could make baskets from anv place upon the floor. He graduates this year and we hate to lose him. Senior. HAROLD GETTLE—“COT Was a very fast forward on Dover’s team. Also was a very accurate shot. Was always on the go. and was therefore free for shots, giving his opponents considerable worry. Senior. GLEN WILLOUGHBY—“WILLOUGHBY Was one of the dashing, dribbling type. Being able to handle the ball to perfection, he was a great floor man and passer. With this year’s experience he should he a whirlwind next year. HERBERT ZOLLAR—“HERB Was a cool and steady fighter, and one of the best guards in the county. Was a bearcat in defense and could make baskets when needed. He has another year for Dover Hi and we are glad of it. Junior. Vol. 8 1923 MILLARD GROH—“MON Mon was a very aggressive guard. Was able to take the ball from the backboard and start it on to the end of the floor before the opponents could get set. Very few close shots were made on him this year, and he is big enough to handle himself in any style of game. I unior. PAUL REEVES— PECK Was always ready when called upon and made a creditable showing when given a chance. Peck was a very good floor man. and still has a year in which to show Dover some more. Junior. Gwilym Braun, Russell Beers, and Charles Hughes did not get much chance to show their ability this year. They deserve cred t. however, for coming out and we wish more students would have this kind of spirit, and follow their example in the future. CRIMSON AND GREY Captain Anna Margaret Adams GIRLS’ BASKETBALL GIRLS’ BASKETBALL Every school in its athletics has its periods of successes and its periods of defeats. The team which goes through school during the slumping period is unfortunate, but. even if its share be defeat, it is not disgraced unless it allows its spirit, fight and determination to slump. So it has been with the Girls’ team this year. We have lost most of our games throughout the season but we have not let our spirit, fight and determination slump. Practice was started about the first of December under the leadership of our coach. Miss Helen Wisely. After two weeks of practice we opened the season by playing Newcomerstown on our own floor. We were beaten, although not outclassed, the score being five to eight. The following week we put forth a little better showing. We were given a little more pep. only it was a little disappointing, the score being a tie. The last quarter was entirely defensive, each team trying to check the scoring of the other. So it was with the next five games—defeat for the Girls—neither side getting a high score. In both the Strasburg and Wadsworth games we lost out the last few minutes of the last quarter. We had to wait for eight long games to call ourselves victors. Then we defeated Wadsworth on our floor with a score of eight, thirteen in Dover’s favor. In our last two games we are sorry to say that we were again defeated. The Girls were unable to score but their pass work and team work brought forth many compliments from the side lines. We have only two more games to show what the Dover Girls’ team really can and will do. Our four players. Margaret Ricksecker. Mildred Rosenberry. Mildred Vorlierr. and Doris Miller, still have another year to redeem this year’s many defeats.

ANNA MARGARET ADAMS—Captain-Guard—She has been guard for Dover I li Girls for three years, always on the job. fighting her way to victory. M A RGA R ET RICKS ECK ER — “ R ick” — Center—“Rick” has come forth upon the field of athletics as a Sophomore. As center she covers the floor well and is just where she is most needed. MILDRED ROSENBERRY —“Ditty”— Guard—“Ditty’s” passes arc accurate and speedy. Her utmost aim is to get the ball to Dover Hi’s goal. 11ILDA SCH LUX DT — “Schlundt”—Forward—This is her first year in girls’ athletics and she has been of value to our team for her faithful and hard playing. JOY WASSEM—Forward—Joy is one of those few players who can best be described by saying that the team feels at a loss without them. She is a speedy and accurate forward. CECELIA LAUBER—“Ce”—Guard—“Ce” is one of our “subs” who has helped us at guard, full of pep, and ready for work. M ILDR ED VORH ERR—G u a r d—E v e n though she is not represented on our picture, she is a ready worker and a sticker when it comes to guarding. DORIS MILLER—Guard—Another “sub” who has backed the Girls’ team by her loyalty and faithfulness at practice. IWULIXK WASSEM—Forward—She is a hard worker but her achievements are not known because she didn’t have a chance to show us. MISS WISELY—Coach—This is her first year as coach of Dover Hi Girls. She has worked hard and continuously in coaching the Girls this season. We wish to thank her for her never-failing effort. BASEBALL Baseball is a minor sport in Dover High School. In the past six years, we have not succeeded in turning out a winning team. Last year, under the leadership of “Dutch Trautwein, the high school attempted to turn out a team, but it was not a success. Only three games were played, and we were defeated in all of them. TRACK Track has not been attempted in Dover High for several years, but we believe that in the years to come, with the material now in High School, we may turn out a winning team. HOPE FOR THE FUTURE We are sorry to note that our Girls’ Basketball team did not have a very successful season, but it is hoped that our girls’ teams in the near future will be of a more successful type. IN APPRECIATION MR. LAW RENCE H. ALEXANDER, more often known as “Alex.” lias had charge of the music in our schools for several years, and has been gradually increasing the standard of music in our high school until it has reached its peak this year. Early in the year he organized a 1 joys’ and a girls’ glee club, which were open to any one having a good voice. In doing this he has placed Dover High School on a plane with high schools of the larger cities, and for this he deserves credit. In his work with our school chorus, he has given it a rating such as is attained by high class choral societies in the cities. He has, in fact, produced such a chorus that can master the most difficult music very easily, and with a small amount of practice. We have liked his work in the past, and we hope he will continue to build our music up to the plane which it should occupy. GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB This is the first time that Dover High School has had a Girls’ Glee Club throughout the year. The Club was organized in the beginning of the year by Mr. Alexander, and those with the best voices were selected to join. Every Tuesday they have met to prepare a cantata, “Pan. on a Summer’s Day.” They hope to present this soon, successfully. This Club is a very great opportunity for quite a few promising young voices of Dover High School, who expect to take the place of Schumann-Heink and Galli-Curci. “Youth is a carol bubbling with glee. As the years slip by. it turns to a song Touched with a beautiful mystery. Onward yet slower it sweeps along Till the autumn of life rings out complete. And angels the last ‘Amen’ repeat.” BOYS’ GLEE CLUB If you were to approach the Auditorium of our institution some Thursday afternoon about 3:05, you would hear the sound of a multitude of sonorous voices; and upon first impressions, (from a distance) you would conclude that a basketball game was taking place in the gym. But, my sleepy reader, you would be mistaken. For as you gallop closer, you find the halls filling and surging with harmonic strains of loudly gushing music. And after you have cursed yourself for your bone-headedness. and recovered your chagrin at your utter lack of appreciation of good music, and have ultimately and finally attuned your melodious strains, you catch, and hold the last words —“I’m off to my love with a boxing glove, ten thousand miles away.” This is our boys glee club. But laying all jokes aside. Alex is there with the dope, in his boys’ glee club. These boys are picked according to their voices and they can surely turn out the songs. They sing at all our men’s banquets, and sometimes entertain us in chapel. Much credit is due Mr. Alexander for the work of this club. HIGH SCHOOL ORCHESTRA The High School Orchestra has shown much improvement this year. Many members of the Junior Orchestra have been promoted to the High School Orchestra and have proven themselves very competent. Although they have had hut few opportunities to prove their ability, they did their best whenever they could. Mr. Alexander, director, has done much toward the betterment of the orchestra. The High School Orchestra has had a great misfortune this year. 'I hey have mourned the departure of the leading cornet player. Faith Wassem, who died in December. She had been a very able member. In concerts given by the choruses and glee clubs, the High School Orchestra has always been willing to lend the.r aid. ICttprarg an kartell} HONOR TO WHOM HONOR IS DUE A clear mind in a strong body. We have all heard this and similar slogans. We believe it to he the duty of every boy and girl to work toward the highest possible standard of physical fitness. Surely we would not discredit athletics or detract from the honor given the fellow who, amid the deafening shouts from the bleachers, carries the hall over the opponents’ goal line or who, during the last moment of the game, tosses the hall which scores a victory for his team. Before every important game we are reminded of the fact that we cannot expect a winning team to win unless we give it our loyal support and encouragement. But what of the other members of our high school who are engaging in a struggle not for a few moments once or twice a week, hut every hour of every day. urged on. not by the cheers of enthusiastic spectators hut by the force of their own wills. To them every difficult task is a challenge to which they respond with their noblest efforts. They arc satisfied not with “good enough” hut with only the best. By careful preparation of lessons they arc maintaining a high quality of scholarship. Their excellent class work is an incentive to others and their interest and respectful attention is an inspiration to the teacher to give her best. They realize that they are training for patriotic citizenship and. because they appreciate the opportunities afforded them and recognize their responsibility in making a life they will not break training. Let us show our appreciation of real merit wherever we find it. Let us cheer those who are playing a good game. Let us be generous in the recognition we accord the hoys and girls who hv high standards of honor and scholarship are proving their true loyalty to D. H. S. Vol. 8 1923 WEAVING LIFE’S TAPESTRY About 1450, Jean Gobelin, a Frenchman, living near Paris, and a wool-dyer by occupation, discovered a secret process of producing a beautiful scarlet color. His skill in dyeing led to the location there of a tapestry weaving industry, which continues until this day and bears his name. After the industry had been running for nearly two hundred years. Louis XIV' acquired the whole plant and the secrets of its manufacture for the French government. Since that time the entire output has been used for decorating French palaces and as presents to foreign ministers and governments, many of them being portraits, landscapes and reproductions of famous scenes from history. As you pass through the various rooms, you see the weavers busy at work. Each one sits behind a large loom, bung from above and made of vertical threads. Wooden needles filled with various colors (if wool are passed in and out through these threads, each color being carefully selected according to the design. • The pattern hangs beside the weaver, which he studies very carefully as he puts in each color. The amount he intends to do in one day. which is about six square inches, is chalked off on both the loom and on the pattern. Some of these tapestries are so large that it takes most of a life time to complete a single piece. Each weaver has a basket of wool beside him of every conceivable color, twenty shades of red alone, and he must be very skillful to select just the one which agrees with the pattern. When it is necessary to change a shade a knot is tied, but as the weaver always works on the wrong side it does not matter, lie works patiently from early until late and should not be disturbed for he is weaving on the loom a wonderful picture and must work in just the proper effects. When a strip across the loom has been finished. it is rolled up at the bottom and is out of sight until the whole is completed; then for the first time the weaver sees his work on the right side. Xow he knows why he was obliged to make so many knots, to put in such high lights and so many of the dark shades. It was in order to correctly bring out the picture. The Master-weaver was about, watching the various looms and frequently was asked concerning some part of the work which looked strange or peculiar. A little consultation made it plain. The weavers begin as children, often times the art passing from father to son and each one strives to perfect his skill and keep up the standard of workmanship. The most peaceful atmosphere pervades the place; beautiful sunlight floods the room and every influence is brought to bear which will help the weaver to do his best for he is working on a masterpiece which is to adorn the walls of a king’s palace. Few readers of this page possess or ever will possess a valuable piece of tapestry such as is made in the above described industry by such skilled laborers; we are unable, financially, to purchase it, neither can we weave it ourselves. While this is true, nevertheless we are weavers. Time is the loom upon which we are weaving and our Life is the tapestry. Before the contract was let for the construction of the Woolworth building, the most beautiful building of its kind in the world, every detail in the plan of its construction was complete; the blue-prints were made and pronounced perfect; then, and not until then, was the contract made and the actual work begun. But it was not enough just to have the blueprint. it had to l e studied carefully and followed minutely so as to be able to transfer the plans to the place of construction and to the materials to be used. We. too. must decide upon a plan for Life’s Tapestry; a perfect Pattern has been given us; we need not wait for one to be made; all that is necessary is to study the Pattern faithfully, become familiar with every detail and by this study we shall see new beauties each day which we shall be able to transfer to our own tapestry. In the Gobelin Tapestry Works only beautiful and permanent colors are used and the best wool is necessary to produce them. On the loom of Time, hour by hour and day by day our Life Tapestry we are weaving. Are we selecting the best materials, beautiful colors and using great care to harmonize them so that when we see it completed, we shall feel that it is worthy of the time spent in the weaving? In our selection have we used Faithfulness in effort. Sincerity in purpose. Purity in thought, word and deed? These are the wools which make beautiful and permanent colors. We must not become confused by those around us who are following other patterns and using different materials from our own; many there are who are following false or defective ones; patterns and materials which attract the car and the eye for the passing moment; they use shoddy instead of wool; they select those things which will secure popularity and approbation of the crowd. We may make mistakes, become greatly discouraged, but then we must call the Master-weaver’s attention to it. He can so readily detect what we are slow to see. Many of the weavers begin their work as children. the son often acquiring the art from the father and he strives to perfect his skill and maintain or raise the standard of workmanship. To assist him in this he is surrounded by the best working conditions which are possible. If these things are necessary for the best results in the weaving of a picture or a scene from history. a product for the commercial world, how necessary must pure companions, clean pictures and noble thoughts be for the atmosphere in weaving our masterpiece. Life’s Tapestry? Some of us may take years of patient and loving service to complete the weaving while others may have only a little while, but some day when the tapestry is unrolled, completed, it will be seen as it is; beautiful, if we have been diligent in our weaving. Then we shall understand why it was necessary to put in both the bright and dark shades, also the close harmony of color, so difficult to distinguish at times. W hat looked almost shapeless will shine out a perfect object, completely related to all the rest of the design and the Master-weaver will then give approval. FRESHMAN CLASS HISTORY The Freshman Class of ’23 first honored Dover High School with their appearance on that notable day September 5. 1922. We had at the time one hundred thirty-six members and now are one hundred thirty-two strong. One of the most well-known and well-liked of our members, Faith Wassem, died this December last and her death was a great sorrow to the class. This year the High School decided to take pity on the poor “Freshies,” so instead of the annual initiation, the V. W. C. A. and the Hi-Y gave us a party which we greatly enjoyed and appreciated. At our first business meeting on September 15. we elected “Fritz Walters, president; Hdna Horn, vice president; “Tot Spahr, secretary; and “Curt Kaltenbaugh. treasurer. We chose old rose and gold for our class colors and the pink rose for flower. On October 9. we enjoyed our class marsh-mellow toast which was held at the Sugar Creek Falls Inn on account of the rain. Many of the girls in the class belong to the Y. W. and enjoy it. Our class has contributed two stars. “Dode Rosenberry and “Hus Beers, and several others, of course, including “Hans” Weidman. to the football squad. We also promise good basketball players. We are trying hard to overcome our “greenness and hope to soon succeed. JAKE WEIBLE— 26. 1923 SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY On the first day of school there were about sixty-eight of us alone loitering about the halls and lobby discussing things of no value, constantly on the lookout for the man who might be the principal to interrupt our gossip. Our class was organized early in September, electing Charles Hughes, President; James Grimm. Vice-President; Mildred Wallick, Secretary and Treasurer, and Jane English, Historian. The first social event was a marshmellow toast north of Beach City. Every one had a delightful time. Many more parties of this kind will be held during the year. We are represented in athletics by Russ. Beers. Paul Von Kaenel. We aim to succeed and hold the standard of our class higher and higher each year. JUNIOR CLASS HISTORY This institution summoned our class to its embrace in 1920. As usual, we were enveloped in a cloud of initiation, but came through the smoke with colors flying. Our enrollment at the time of our entrance was about sixty members. As the years rolled by. however, our numbers increased to seventy-five. Early in our third year we organized the class and chose Paul Reeves as president. Paul Neiman as vice-president, and Marvip Hair as secretary and treasurer. Football was accepted with enthusiasm. Under the able coaching of Mr. Trautwein we defeated our ancient rivals. New Philadelphia, which marked the climax of a successful season. The boys were honored with several banquets, on account of their able work. The line was composed entirely of Juniors, who showed their prowess in making gaps for the backfield men. Robert “Dutch” Miller was elected captain of next year’s team. Our social events were not numerous, but showed their excellent quality in their style and success. A marshmellow toast and party in the gymnasium were the most successful achievements. We are now looking forward to the “Prom.” the mammoth Junior-Senior party. The class hopes to leave a favorable impression with the other classes. “Excelsior.” the motto of the Junior Class, we have striven to emblazon on the tablets of this school. We will certainly depart from D. H. S. feeling that we have made it into a social and loyal school. —R “Don” Millican—’24. Vol. 8 1923 SENIOR CLASS HISTORY Once more the clays have slipped by until the time is drawing near when another hand of boys and girls will pass out of the building of so much trouble and yet so much delight. Each year it happens. Each year some class must take their leave and stage a round of farewell parties and exercises. The years have passed so quickly since 1911 that the class of ’23 can scarcely realize it is their turn, but alas it is. So with reluctant hearts we’ll go but leave behind us a little history of our past to keep us in the memories of those who shall follow. Our class entered Dover High School in September 1919 with an enrollment of 104 members. High school was new to us and anything new is very interesting, so we may say we were a very curious and interested crowd. All Freshmen are called “green” and although we denounced the word and tried to prove it a misdirected term, yet it persisted. No little thing like “green.” however, could stunt our growth. If we were only a little green bud when we entered High School we began to grow in our mental faculties, our social temperament and our comprehending senses until the bud burst and the pink of the flower blossomed forth. Each year it has spread a little wider apart until now the flower is partly opened. We hope that through these years we have not torn any of the petals but that when we leave school to seek the wider knowledge of the world, the bud will blossom into a flower unblemished. Our membership has gradually dwindled until we now have only CO members. Several of our students have found Dover too small for them and moved away. Among these were Adrean Lebold, Raymond Horton. Willis Brown and Lucille Hill. Samuel Weinland has gone to Nazareth Hall to attend military school. Others have found the demands of school too strenuous and gone to seek jobs elsewhere. It seems as if every year must bring its sorrow. There is no happiness 1 ut what is mixed with tears. We lost one of our classmates in the summer of 1921 when John Kicksecker was drowned in the Tuscarawas River. John was o.ie of the most popular members of our class and a wonderful student. His loss shall always be keenly felt by the class of ’23. The history of our social, athletic and mental activities for Freshman. Sophomore and Junior years has been related before so we need only mention a few of the outstanding facts of our Senior life. In the first place, it is not so vastly different to be a Senior. Besides feeling about twice as old as the little Freshmen and thinking we know about six times as much as any other class, we have not changed much. Some of our girls, however, have grown a little more youthful in their appearance, for feeling a little depressed at their elderly aspect, have bobbed their locks. If to gain a more youthful look was their intention, they have succeeded marvelously and we doubt if a stranger could distinguish between some of the Freshmen and Seniors. We were well represented in athletics this year; five letter men on the football team being from our class. The officers of the class : Harold Gettle, president; Bob Krantz. Vice President; Margaret Hostetler. Secretary and Treasurer; and Helen Maurer. Historian, who had held their offices for three years, were succeeded this year by the respective persons: Russell Zollars. Bob Shields, Helen Maurer and Josephine Wible. We know not why the change was made for the former officers had proved very efficient. Thus far we have had few social affairs. Of course our first attempt along that line was a marshmellow toast wh ch we held soon after the opening of school. Boys from other classes followed us but did not succeed in doing much damage and received little more than a couple of buns and some mustard for their pains. A party and dance for the entire High School, but engineered by the Senior Class, was given in November. The big events of a Senior’s life usually come towards the close of the second semester, so for those we are eagerly looking forward. And now we’ve related the most important facts of our Senior year. We have acquired for ourselves while in High School the respect and admiration of our teachers and fellow classmen. Please do not think we are bragging when we make that statement. Hut the attitude of others has almost proven it. Some of us may have gained more from these years than others, just as some have the ability to make the most of their opportunities while others lose them. However, for all we have acquired, we owe a great debt to our teachers whose interest in us and untiring efforts have helped us on. And now we hope we may, upon going out into the world, be able to create respect and admiration from those with whom we come in contact. May we have become an important spoke in the High School wheel and put something worth while into the school which shall be missed after we have departed. JO YVIBLE. “The Crimson and Grey” is a great invention, The school gets all the fame. The printer gets all the money, The staff gets all the blame. 1923 SENIOR CLASS POEM 192 3 Through the portals of this High School In the year of nineteen. Passed a class of five score members Feeling very small and green; Some were gathered from the country But most I’m safe to say. Had been members of the Eighth Grade In the school across the way. “Such a lively bunch of Freshmen,” More than one was heard to say, And we’ve kept our reputation Even to this very day; We astonished all our teachers With our very brilliant ways. For the classes that preceded Had not felt the “study craze.” We partook of all the good times Which the High School offered us. And tried to conejuer long assignments Without much ado or fuss; There were sorrows, there were joys In our dear old Freshman year. And the mem’ries of those past days We shall always hold as dear. —JO WHILE—’23. Through the four long years of High School We have slowly worked our way, To the hour that is forthcoming On our graduation day; And although there have been struggles And the path was not all smiles We feel that we have traveled Very beneficial miles. Altogether pulling onward To the same goal far away, Till we now can almost sec it And will reach it soon, we pray; Then, all standing round it smiling We’ll accept our dear reward, And pass on out between the portals Through which years ago we poured. We’ve enjoyed these years immensely And shall miss them more, we know, Hut there will l e no room tor us And they’ll have to bid us go; Hut we wish for all the others That shall follow where we’ve led Just the same joys, fun and frolics As each one of us have had. Owing to existing conditions the Hi-Y picture had to be omitted. HI-Y Although handicapped by the resignation of our leader. Mr. Brown, at the first of the year, the Hi-Y has continued its work and development under the splendid leadership of Mr. Schlundt. The club meets every Wednesday noon at the Chamber of Commerce Rooms, where a dinner is served by the mothers of the different members. The annual Y. W. and Hi-Y Christmas Party was a decided success. The main features were the eats and the splendid program arranged by the Y. W. Several members attended the State Hi-Y conference at Akron and declared it the best conference yet held. Throughout the school year the members have conducted chapel services every Monday morning. In doing so we have tried to follow out our plan of creating, maintaining and extending throughout the school and community a higher standard of Christian fellowship. Y. W. C. A. OFFICERS MISS KNAPP...................................- Adviser JOSEPHINE WIBLE ...... President PAULINE W ASSEM ■ Vice-President MARGARET RICKSECKER .... . Secretary MILDRED VORHERR ...... Treasurer The Y. W. C. A. of Dover Hi has now been organized for three years. During this time it has been quite a benefit to the school in general and, also, to certain members of our community at large. In summarizing the work accomplished, the following things are mentioned as most important. On Thanksgiving and Christmas, the needy of our community are remembered by presenting them with baskets of food. Also, on Christmas, children are given small gifts. The singing of Christmas and Easter carols has now been carried out successfully for several years. The Christmas party for the Hi School has succeeded in becoming an annual affair. The Y. W. has been unusually successful in giving parties which no one will forget. Preceding this time, ail Hi School parties in general were considered failures. In 1921. the Y. W . together with the Hi-Y, was instrumental in introducing chapel services into the Hi School routine. These things fulfill, in part, the threefold purpose of this association—to create a spirit of service, a feeling of friendliness and a desire for the upholding of the ideals and standards of Christian womanhood and democracy. SOCIAL EVENTS AND HAPPENINGS Our school has been active this year in social events as well as other ways. The following is a brief outline of the events of the year. FRESHMEN The freshmen had a well attended marshmellow toast early in the year, which furnished a relief of the monotony of life to several upper classmen. However the freshmen had a good time so we are all satisfied, as we are all in high school merely for the purpose of entertaining the lower class men. SOPHS These little fellows have had two social events this year but they were not bothered by the upper classmen so we cannot give you an account of these frivolous gatherings but we expect that they had a good time. JUNIORS This class has been active in the entertaining of the high school, as they gave a dance soon after Thanksgiving to raise some money for the “prom.” They also gave a party dance at the Franklin Inn with the help of the Seniors. They have no doubt been as active as the Seniors who naturally do most of the joy making of the high school. SENIORS The Seniors have given two dances this year for the benefit of the annual, as well as having sponsored the pep meetings and general high school parties which were given thruout the year. As these things will be mentioned more thoroughly in their proper places, we will not dwell at length upon these subjects. PEP This year there has been injected into our high school something which has always been needed, but has never been started by the faculty. This year, with the coming of Mr. McMillan as a regular instructor in Dover High, we have had a new era started in the life of our high school. Under his able leadership, and at his suggestion we have had a series of pep meetings and parties before each of the big games which have helped our school spirit wonderfully. We owe to Mr. McMillan a great deal of thanks for this, as well as for other things he has done for us. However that is not the purpose of this writeup—to laud, but it is our purpose to plead for more school spirit in studies and athletics, than we have had heretofore. The accompanying illustration shows the football team and squad at the beginning of the year. Compare it with the one in the athletic section which was taken the day before the New Phila. game. A difference of about fifteen men. This is ridiculous. One man quits because the coach gets a little harsh in his statements when provoked, another because he did not make the first team, and still another because the “boys were so rough with him.” Is this the kind of men Dover High is going to turn out in the future? Is It? If it is, then we may as well stop our athletics at once, for what good are they doing us? It seems to me that those fellows who cannot stay with the team for one whole season need not come out at all. for what good are they doing the team? Fellows, let us have more of that old time school spirit, both in our athletics and in our studies. If we cannot last thruout the year in one study, then why come to high school at all? Why come to school, not to study, but to annoy others? Think it over, then decide. JOKES ETC. COMPOSITION ON DUCKS. The duck is a low. heavy set bird, composed mostly of meat, bill and feathers. JI is head sets on one end and he sets on the other. There ain’t no between to his toes, and he carries a toy balloon in his stomach to keep from sinking. The duck has only two legs and they are set so far back on his running gear that they come pretty near missing his body. Some ducks, when they get big. are called drakes. Drakes don’t have to set or hatch; just loaf, go swimming and eat. If I was a duck I’d rather be a drake, every time. Ducks does not give milk but eggs, but as for me. give me liberty or give me death.

J.P.P.lll IN NINETEEN THIRTY-THREE As I passed down the streets of Dover the other day. after an absence of several years, I happened to meet Gladys Potchner. who is now (that’s all right, Gladys, we won’t tell any secrets). and as she recognized me almost immediately. I must not have changed very much. She told me that she was not single any more and that she was entertaining the old crowd, or as many as were left here, at her home that evening at a little dinner. When she invited me. my heart lept with joy. as I would now get to meet all of those who had been in my class, or at least hear from the most of them. When I arrived that evening, there were already about five there. After I arrived, several more came who still lived around town. As we sat at the table, on my right was Mrs. Samuel E. Weinland. who was formerly Miss Josephine Shull, a prominent member of our class. She told me that her husband was now engaged in the hardware business, and that John Menges was employed by her husband as foreign buyer for the firm. However, as John was sitting at the head of the table as host. I already knew of his occupation. On my left sat Josephine Wible. who has dedicated herself to the life work of saving souls in Africa, and who is now at home on a furlough. She told me that she had seen Gwilym Braun just before she left Africa, and that he was a salesman for The Dover Manufacturing Co., and maintained his central office in Mu-nango, British Central Africa, but that he was thinking of establishing a branch office in the jungles near the Equator. Joe said that he was making quite a business of selling ten pound pressing irons to the natives who use them to take the curls out of their straight white hair. Across the table from me sat Francis Mans, who is now a graduate of Annapolis, and who is stationed at Dover as Admiral of the Tuscarawas River Squadron of torpedo boats. He is married and has a palatial home on Reeves Heights, which was formerly occupied by Ben Miller, who is an old bachelor, but who has recently removed himself and baggage to New York City, where he expects to start a branch store of the well known firm of Senhauser. Miller and Co. John Menges, my host, now told me of several of my friends whom I had not seen for several years. He told me that Helen Maurer was now head nurse at Mercy Hospital in Pittsburgh. Joy Wassem is working for Helen as dietician, and that they are both quite contented. Pauline Wassem is also in Pittsburgh, but she is one of Pittsburgh's wealthy matrons, and does charity work in the poorer districts of the city. Hilda Schlunt and Bertha Pfeiffer (using their married names) arc touring the country as Redpath Chautauqua entertainers. Adrian Lebold is also on the stage but he is in vaudeville, as one of the great “Kieth Joy-Gang,” and that James Hilton is also on this same tour, as a violin accompanist for Mr. Lebold. Sam Weinland then told me that he had seen Robert Shields only last week in New York, where he is the advertising manager for John Wanamaker’s big New York store, and that Bob Krantz is his assistant, while Harold Gettle is the head of the auditing committee. Russell Zollar has charge of the New York factory of the Oldsmobile Motor Car Co. and has produced more cars in the last year than any former manager ever did in the same length of time. Elmer Walter has very little time to waste as he has taken up scientific farming, and with the help of his charming wife, formerly Miss Theo Sammons, is bound to make a success of this venture. Paul Kelbassa has also taken up farming, but he is only raising a very small mustache, as you know his father left him independently rich. Another who sat across from me at the table was Ivor Goodrich, who is now married, and has charge of the Reeves Manufacturing Company’s Xoar plant, where they make cast iron automobile tires which are guaranteed to never wear out. These tires were invented by Loefflcr Capper, and he is realizing millions from them today. Samuel Weinland also told me that George Telle is now a pitcher on the Cleveland Indians, a id that this club is owned by Tony Nigro. Tony is not the only baseball club owner though as the Finley twins are partners in owning the Philadelphia Athletics, who have, since the change in ownership, risen from last place in the National League to become pennant-winners, and even have taken the World’s Series now for two years straight. This team has made the twins so rich that they cannot even see Dover any more. Thelma Gieser and Julia Wentz have both joined the married folks club, and now reside on Wooster Ave.; while Cecil Stocker and Cecelia Lauber are running a modiste shop on Twenty-third street. Florence Beller is attending the University of Alabama, where after another year’s work, she will become instructor of cooking in the school of home economics. Margaret Hostetler is now married to the ad- vertising manager of John Wanamaker's Xew Vork store. Hazel Cohn and Joan Johns have both married prominent Juniors, whose names we are not allowed to tell. The Smutz-Weinz Company, Inc., has secured the exclusive rights to manufacture several new kinds of cosmetics, which were invented by the two beauty specialists, Lydia Braun and Elizabeth Williams. Bernice Fisher has complete charge of the loans department of the Reeves Bank. When I questioned the company about Mary Trubey, I was told that she had gone East to become the bride of the manager of the Olds-mobile Motor Car Co. John then told me that Pauline Weinhardt, Ruby Horn and Elizabeth Scharr had each married a man who had since become a minister, and that they were scattered all over the United States. Louisa Stabler is now a commercial teacher in New Phila. High School, where she is well liked by all her pupils. “But how about Earl Koos?” I asked “Did he never fall for the girls, or if he did, where is he now?” I was then told by Sam and John at once that he had entered the Mellon Institute at Philadelphia, and consequently had never attempted to get married. Just as they finished. I was suddenly awakened quite rudely by Mac. who had caught me asleep in school. Vol. 8 1923 THE FATE OF TEN FRESH FRESHMEN Ten little freshies drawn in a line; One failed in Algebra and then there were nine. Nine little freshies sitting very straight; One over studied (?) himself, thus leaving only eight. Eight naughty little freshies in study hall; Miss Knapp nabbed one. and then there were but seven. Seven little freshies playing funny tricks; One got canned—leaving only six. Six little freshies who were very much alive; Fisher caught one. and then there were but five. Five little freshies kicking up a roar; One got sent out—leaving only four. Four little freshies feeling very fine; One got sick and left, leaving only three. Three little freshies “bluffing their way through”; One couldn’t make it and then there were two. Two little freshies. both chewing gum; Miss Hawk caught one and then there was but one. One little freshie trying to do a sum. He got flunked and then there was none. And so here ends the sad story of our ten little freshmen, and we pray— May you not be one. A HELPFUL HINT A TRAGEDY. Have you a pony for your class? Pass it on: Algy met a bear. Act I. ’Twas not meant for just one lass. Pass it on: Act II. Help us win the teacher’s smiles, Pass it on. Let it travel down the aisles, Let it help another’s trials, The bear was bulgy. Act III. The bulge was Algy. THE CLASS WILL We. the Senior Class of Dover High School, being of so-called sound (?) mind, do hereby grant and bequeath to the rest of the high school the following articles, both concrete and abstract. 1. —Our Annual Staff do bequeath to next year’s statT the following— (a) Our debts, which we are only too glad to be rid of. (b) The good-will of both our engraver and also of our printer, which has helped us wonderfully. (c) The hard luck which our Advertising Manager had in getting ads. (For further information concerning this apply to him.) (d) Our success in winning cups, which we hope will continue next year. 2. —The success which our entertainment committee, who worked like thunder, had in raising money for this book. 3. —We cheerfully donate, or rather, will pay any one in X. P. H. S. a princely sum. who will abduct, murder, bury, or otherwise expose (1 mean dispose) of our high school baseball team, which you no doubt know is an absolute failure. 4. —Our seats in Mac’s room, to be given to succeeding classes, and to be used for the same purpose as we used them, i.e., as an excellent place to loaf. (Like Fun.) 5. —To the Juniors we give the sophistication which has been ours throughout the last two years of our high school career. (Look up sophistication.) 6. —We cheerfully donate our ability to bluff (?) the teachers of this high school to the sophs, and we assure you that we hope that you succeed better with it than we have. 7. —To Mr. McMillan we donate all of the sarcasm with which he has scorned us. (Meaning the Senior Girls.) 8. —And now finally, to the entire high school we donate what none of you who will succeed us have or can possibly have unless donated to you, we again say. for the last time, we donate to you a few of our large surplus of brains. (Signed)— THE SENIOR CLASS OF 1923. Copy Editor’s note—“They sure think that they are it.” Vol. 8 1923 A STROKE OF FATE (As given by an experienced high school senior) “OUR FEARS DO MAKE US TRAITORS” Johnny was very bashful—especially when women were around him. He was known to have walked an extra block in order to keep from passing a crowd of girls on the street. How he ever mustered up enough courage to call on a girl is a deep mystery, but this he did. and thereby hangs this tale. “They” were seated a scant three feet apart on the small davenette in the parlor, and conversation was hanging fire. All manner of conversation had failed, and Johnny was even beginning to wonder if it was not time to leave this fair maiden. He was finding an appropriate way of taking his leave when Mabel’s father appeared in the door-way. watch in hand. “Young man, do you know what time it is?” he asked sharply. “Why, n-n-no. sir. but I was just getting ready to leave, sir.” Johnny answered, and bolted from the room, grabbed his hat as he passed thru the hall, and disappeared thru the front door, forgetting his galoshes in his haste, and not even saying goodnight to Mabel. With a snort of astonishment. Mabel’s father turned to her and said. “What in blazes ailed that fellow? My watch has stopped, and I merely wanted to know the time.” lust then the clock in the city hall tower struck the hour of.nine. ELK. Girls’ faults are many, 1 went to see my girl one night. While boys’ are only two— On my shoulder her head she leaned. Everything they say and I was pleased and thrilled at the moment, Everything they do. Hut next day my coat had to be cleaned. (We thank you.) HEARD IN PHYSICS. Mr. Lambert—Of course, an object projected upward is thrown somewhat from its course by the movement and resistance of the air. W. Conn—Then if there were no air friction, and you would shoot upward with a gun, the bullet would come right back down in the gun, wouldn’t it?—Uncle Sam needs them kind of sharpshooters, Connie. WE’LL SAY WALTER WAS THINKING OF—THE PHILA. GAME. Mr. Lambert—Turn to page thirty-seven. W. Morrison—Where is that page? SEE IF YOU CAN GET THIS ONE Miss Knapp—Stop and think for a minute, and you will see that I am right. Gwilym—(after about a minute)—I can’t see it. REG. U. S. PATENT OFFICE 12-5-22. R. L.—Do you think there will ever be such a thing as a perpetual motion machine. Some Witty Junior—There’s a lot of them in the Freshman Class. DRAMA ENTITLED “OUR MERRY SET OF ELECTRIC CLOCKS’’ Her (with a sigh)—Gee. but time does go fast. Him (inwardly pleased)—Why. dear? Her (inwardly pleased)—Oh. I saw those blamed clocks ticking off hours at the rate of one a minute, up at school this afternoon. Him (with a sigh)— _?(£;; ; AT LAST—A DEFINITION FOR ELECTRICITY. R. L.—What would you say that electricity is. William? W. Reiss—Something that you don’t know is there, but it’s there just the same. Rill O’Donnel can’t seem to realize that football season is over. The other day he was in the Physics lab. and he must of thought he was in the dressing room getting ready for the Phila. game,—anyhow, with the aid of a small amount of sulphuric acid, he started to undress. When he had one trouser leg about half way off at the hip. he suddenly realized where he was at and immediately headed for Mr. Blackstone’s office to secure that individual’s permission to go home and secure a more endurable pair of trousers—We suggest sheet iron, Bill. For Baseball Fans EXTRA—EXTRA Fast Game at Reeves Diamond Today The game opened with Molasses on the plate and with Smallpox catching. Cigar was in the box with plenty of smoke. Axe came to the bat and chopped. Cigar let Brick walk. Curtain raised a high one to center, which Cough dropped, and Sawdust filled the bases. Song made a hit and Twenty made a score. Cigar went out. and Balloon tried to pitch but went straight up in the air. Cherry tried it but was wild. Cabbage had a good head so he finished the game. Horn played first base, while Fiddle held down second, but Umpire Apple was rotten. In the fifth inning Wind began to blow what he could, if given a chance, do. and so the Trees began to leave. Oats was shocked when Song made another hit. Grass covered lots of ground in the field and the crowd cheered when Spider caught a fly. Stage coached on third and pumped Organ who played fast and put Light out. Kgg cracked a liner toward third base, and beat it to first. Pigeon smashed out a homer and the game ended two to one. Door said that if they had left him pitch he would have shut them all out. BACKWORD. We have left the old D. H. S. and have taken up our abode in the new.

As w'e offer this, the eighth volume of “Crimson and Grey,” to the students, alumni, and public at large, we ask that you be merciful in your criticisms inasmuch as we have labored hard and earnestly to present to you a picture of high school life as it goes on in Roosevelt High.

The Weaver Motor Co. Dover, Ohio The Daily Times As the leading newspaper in Tuscarawas County takes a particular pleasure in welcoming the class of 1923 of Dover High School into the broader world of affairs that will greet it upon graduation. To you, the citizens of tomorrow, we pledge our earnest efforts to always present the most reliable, unbiased news reports, and other features that make a newspaper readable. The position of a newspaper in its community is a responsible one. It is the moulder of public opinion, the disseminator of information, the gatherer of local and world news. As a proof that THE DAILY TIMES has constantly endeavored to maintain this high standard its circulation has grown steadily until it is the most read and quoted newspaper in Tuscarawas County. To the present students of Dover High School and future citizens of the community we pledge the same untiring effort to maintain the high ideajs and quality of service that have placed THE DAILY TIMES in the position it enjoys today.
