WE WISH TO THANK: Mr. Carmola for contributing tags for Booster Day. H. A. VonKaenel for his efficient service and the use of his stands. Those girls who have helped so greatly in getting this book ready for the press. Those who have given so willingly of their time and energy at the staff stand. The Faculty who have faithfully stood by us in our work. The Elks for the use of their club rooms on Booster Day, and their generous support, together with other citizens of Dover, in buying tags. The advertisers for their assistance in financing this book. The Student Body of Dover High School whose helpful interest has been a great inspiration. THE STAFF To the Alumni of Dover High School: Though our appeal to the Alumni brought few responses, we are proud of those who did respond as well as of those too busy at carving a career to write letters home. An alumni with too much time for writing letters is a useless and dangerous aggregation of graduated humanity. Members of the Dover High School Alumni, we are dedicating this volume to you just the same as if you had sent us so many orders as to swamp our selling organization; and if each of you had written us a tender letter calculated to dissolve our staff in tears, we could not make this dedication with more sincerity of feeling. We are glad for your success in life, and we hope it continues. Your success is ours as well. We wish for you the best in coming years and the best careers that human beings can possibly have.

I’m Davy W. Jones, The Boy Detective! of locker fame.” Rash, impulsive Youth! A boy against a hundred men, forsooth; They would have finished him at one fell stroke! But he was saved,—thank goodness, he awoke!

We are thinking of our teachers, Of the things thUt they have done, Of their patience they all gave us Until our lessons were all won. We are planning for the future; We are building day by day On the first rung of Life’s ladder That the Lord has made of clay. Life is like a mountain railroad, But everyone must himself be brave, We must make that run successful From our school life to our grave. We can do this just by trying To climb that long, steep hill, Known as Life’s own trusting pathway, We must this pathway win with will. We will roll up grades of trial, We will cross the bridge of strife, See that Christ is our Conductor On this lightning train of life. MARGARET SWONGER D. H. S. ’28.

It to then—0 world' ih ,t ‘ST ihe,ikss,° !?78T7to •l'ou 'ho will go out to win the world—that 1 dedicate these humble lines. Ot course it is merely wasting time to state that a better class than CRIMSON our dear class of 1928 never darkened the great doorways of Dover High School. It is needless to suggest that a finer class than ours will never, with tear be-dimmed eyes, pass out through the portals of the old school. May this cynical, cruel world of to-day never steal from our minds and hearts these sentimental thoughts, the noble memories that should cling always around our class. May the realities of the world as we meet them one by one, never become so engrossing as to crowd out of our lives all the thoughts of high school days. That is my wish. Four years of high school life played havoc with our class. Over one-hundred received the name of “Green Freshies,” while now there are left only fifty-nine to enjoy the title—“Noble Seniors.” I say—enjoy the title—l am too modest to suggest that we deserve it. We regret that some have found it necessary to depart from our midst and seek their education elsewhere, and that some have been forced to take up other work rather than finish their high school days. Only able officers would have so securely guided us through all our undertakings these four years. As Freshmen, we looked to Jim Stocker, as Pres.; Martha Henney, Vice-Pres.; Oneda Jentes, Sec.; and Bill Evans, Treas., to light the way for us. Being true to tradition, we chose, when Freshmen, the colors, Green and White. To show you further what dark and dreary shapes all things assumed to us then, I tell you that we chose the motto “Never Despair.” When Sophomores the position of leadership for the class changed hands and Jim Scriven succeeded Jim Stocker, Elenore Weinsz became Vice-Pres., Oneda Jentes still held the Secretary’s books, but our treasurer turned over his money to Jim Hill. In our Junior year, still other changes were made. George Myers was elected Pres., and “Midge” Kaltenbough took up the work of Treas. Our Senior year found us still willing to submit to the capable guidance of George Myers as President, Lilia Rieker was elected Vice-Pres., and Bill Winkler was chosen to manage our finances. All have proved very worthy of their trusts. Our class has had its share of football heroes and basketball stars. I need only mention names, “Ike” Trubey, “Tubby” Glover, Oscar Berquist, Justin Polen, and Clarence Funkhauser and football fans will lay down their work to listen. Although we have endeavored to keep our grades on the happy side of seventy-five, yet, not believing in all work and no play we have managed some social times each year. The Junior-Senior Prom held last year was probably the most brilliant event of our school life. Of course it is unnecessary to say that it was the best Prom ever to be held in Dover High. When we were Freshmen, a marshmallow toast at Snyder’s Crossing and a party at the Falls Inn were great successes. Then in our Sophomore and Junior years we enjoyed two parties at the Franklin Inn. These class get-togethers have been so pleasant that we sincerely hope that they will not cease entirely with the end of high school life. I can only sit and reflect on the swiftness with which High School days have passed. It seems but yesterday that we were wandering curiously through Dover high school for the first time, and now our experiences there will soon be but memories. Commencement then will Page thirty-six AMD GREY bring to us mingled feelings—a feeling of triumph that we have actually arrived, and a feeling of regret that we must soon pass on. May there come also to each of us a feeling of assurance that we will carry with uj weapons of value with which to meet the world. RUTH WIBLE '28 Historian SENIOR CLASS WILL We, the Senior class of Dover High School, in the County of Tuscarawas and State of Ohio, being of sound mind and memory, do make, publish, and declare this our last Will and Testament, in manner following that is to say: First: That our places in the Misses Eberwine’s.

Feb. 21, 1943. You recall from my letter of some months past that I am now President and largest stockholder of the Golden Gate Matrimonial Bureau in whose service I have been employed for some years. I am certainly glad that I have given over my life to such a worthy cause, for aside from the wonders our firm has done for numerous persons, I have recently had an experience which brought me in very close touch with the activities of all our former classmates. It happened in this manner: Some five years ago, soon after entering into my present line of work. I received a letter from our old classmate, Hugo Alleshouse. He had, as I gathered from his letters, made a success in business and was rolling in wealth. But with all his millions and notwithstanding his powers in the business world, it seems he had been unsuccessful in numerous attempts to persuade ladies to prefer blondes. Upon receiving his application, it immediately occurred to me that an old expert like Rose Benson, who had divorced her third husband, would make a splendid wife for Hugo. The scheme worked wonderfully and twenty-four hours after negotiations started, they were united in marriage. So delighted were they with the efforts of an old classmate that they decided they would make a tour of the country and hunt up all the remaining members of the class of 1928. At intervals after this time, I received letters from them, giving me the following information: Oneda Jentes was found in Cleveland, conducting a news column in a daily paper, on “How to Keep Thin,” and Jane Stieber is editing a “Loretta Joy” column in the same paper. Upon arriving at Dover they found many of our old classmates had not forsaken the home firesides. “PeeWee” Holzworth is on the Police Force. Harland Yoder is Service Director, and Richard Glover is Fire Chief. Wondering why so many of the old class were holding city jobs, they found the reason in the fact that George Myers is Mayor. While George holds the title they say his wife, Lois, is the power behind the throne. While in Dover, they dropped into Henderson’s old stand which now operates under the name of “Smitty’s Lunch Room.” Jovial as ever, Marj was serving three-minute steaks and ringing up every nickel in the cash register. One night they were invited to a gathering of the Rotary Club to hear an old classmate, who had won honors in -the outside world, discuss sociology. This proved to be none other than Mr. Spies. And the toastmaster of the evening was the successful druggist, William Winkler. Next to Bill sat his wife, who was formerly our old friend, Lilia Reiker. The following Sunday they attended the Lutheran Church and imagine their surprise at finding the pulpit occupied by Raymond Sipe! Clarence Funkhauser has a permanent job at the Bexley Theatre. - P(i( c forty AM© GREY He thrills the audience with the melodious tunes he produces on his banjo. Alice Blaser is still working at the G. W. Stucky Finance Co., and her friend, Ruth Bowen, is secretary to a prominent lawyer in the city, Donald Snyder. Evelyn Mason and Ruth Meese are proprietors of the “Ever Beautiful” beauty parlor. Elenore Weinsz is happily married to that little black-haired basketball player who is now star on the New York Celtics. Of course it is needless for me to tell you of the great honors “Ike” Trubey has won for himself. I always thought “Ike” would some day make something of himself, and now to think he holds the world’s shorthand and typewriting championship. Alice Newton has invented some sort of a substance to make straight hair curly for those less fortunate than herself, and experiments on Dorothy Pritchard. Lester Haas is a prohibition officer in Pinchy. And do you remember Venice Tavern, where we had our Senior party? Well, Robert Groh is proprietor of it. Gertrude Bandi has followed in her father’s footsteps, and owns a Pastry Shop on Fifth Avenue, Strasburg. Due to the fact that our Annual of 1928 was such a huge success, the Canton Engraving Co. has given Martha Henney a very high position in their firm and she gives other schools ideas for their annuals. Martha Kaelin is a great scientist in the rapidly growing city of Crooked Run, thanks to the undying efforts of Mr. Blackstone. In Wooster,. Ohio, Lloyd Casebeer and Lawrence Krantz were found in an Experiment Station perfecting a Seedless Watermelon. Then the next stop for Hugo and Rose was Pittsburgh. Here they attended a theatre to see an array of Dover talent. Hilda Lab, Almeda Vetter, Nadine Reifen-snyder, and Marie Myers appeared as the “Rainbow Girls,” before a packed house. Thence to New York and it seems many of the old class have sought the life of the great city. On Broadway could be seen a glaring sign proclaiming Helen Immel as star in “Why Men Leave Home.” And traveling down the street a little farther they came upon a huge electric sign reading “Berquist Biscuits.” The name sounded familiar and upon investigation they found Oscar and Harold manufacturing and selling dog biscuits. They learned from them that another old Dover friend was in the city that night. In the WEAF national broadcasting station could be found Bertha Loshark, rendering “Home Sweet Home,” which brought the tears to their eyes as they thought of dear old Dover High. Then they went up the Hudson River in search of Peg Pitt’s Seminary for girls. She was more than delighted to see them and told them that several others of the class of ’28 were employed in her school. Fay Miller teaches English, Marjorie Keyser, Spanish, and of course you know “Midge” Kaltenbaugh has been the Oratory and Dramatics instructor since her divorce from “Snub.” The rest of the class are scattered in the far corners of the earth. € R I M S O Harold Hilty is heading an expedition sent out by the Smithsonian Institute to study the prehistoric mammals of Asia and Australia. In this expedition were found John Thomas, Justin Polen, Donald Mason, and Clifford Domer. Jim Scriven is president of the largest “Pop Factory” in Chicago. They say there has been some trouble between him and his wife and the cause seems to be his private secretary, Ruth Loessi. You remember Alberta and Ruth were the best of friends in high school, but that’s what a man will do. Then I suppose you have read in the papers of Margaret Swonger’s many attempts to swim the English Channel. The next will be her thirteenth struggle for fame and I certainly hope she will succeed. Zelma Gordon is in Paris studying art. Mary Moser is a missionary in Alaska and Laura Buss is a librarian in Dallas, Texas. One of our class I have seen quite often in the last few years. Jane Thomas is in Hollywood starring in Mack Sennett Comedies and you know San Francisco isn’t so far away, so when either of us gets homesick for an old friend, we pay each other a little visit and talk over old times. Congratulations, “Shorty,” upon your responsible position as advisor and companion to the Countess De Lux. Both Hugo and Rose were bewailing the fact that you and the Countess were sojourning in the tropics when they called at your estate on Long Island. I would really love to hear from you some time for the sake of old times. I wonder it you will be as little surprised as I was to hear of the occupation of our former classmates. Each one is doing exactly what I expected and anticipated long ago. I knew that all of them would succeed and am not disappointed. How I wish we could get together in the gym of old Dover High School for a rollicking good old time. What a variety of talent would be there. Three cheers for the old class—and best wishes for your future success and happiness. Loyally, RUTH WIBLE.

Roy Torp is an A. B. master-mariner who keeps the flag always at thie mizzen top. When the “D. N. W.” starts to capture a boat the sight of “Bus” Andreas and “Dan” Contini at the mast head (on the grid iron) gives opposing pirates the horrors and Yellow Jack.

Word had been given by Captain Dickey, born tired, to row for the eastern coast of Spain, there to plunder a ship named “La Ciencia” which was due soon. We didn’t have so much to do as most crews did because Baker, the Ant Eater, had invented electric oars so that he wouldn’t have to work so hard. On a beautiful day in May the two met. They boarded us, and it came to a hand-to-hand battle in which there was no concise victory, for both ships were sucked into the shadowy waters of the past. Some were heard of no more, but more of them clung to wreckage. Never was luck so deserving of a gold medal as when it guided another pirate ship, “La Segunda,” to our course the next day. The blessed thing picked us up, and off we went for another adventure, this time for buried treasure. The first-mate was True-Blue Loshark who frequently felt like bossing the whole works, but she didn’t suceed. Other officers were Touch-Me-Not Andreas, so called, because of timidness, who took care of the log, and “Old Reliable” Weinsz, who took care of the booty (when we had some). We couldn’t have done without our deck and gym swabber, Glenino de Milo, no not the Venus de Milo whom he descended from (only you couldn’t tell it). Oh yes, we had a gym and “Among our notable Sophomores, Are Beitner, Lahmers, and Low, All wizards on our basketball floor Just ask Coach Herman, he knows.” We can’t forget Bob, the Giant-Killer, Touse Dessecker, and last but not least, our dispensible inventor, Bill. At the big party given on board March 23 the “Fakit” orchestra entertained us. This was made up of our own musicians. So here’s to our Sophomore class, May she find the treasure she seeks.

This was a hundred and thirty-two very green Freshmen. There were a few added later, and, as usual, we had a few “quitters.” . The first few days were genuine agony for us with the Sophomore directing us to the wrong floors. All we heard around us was, “Hello, Freshie.” Near the close of September, a meeting was called in the study hall, during which the following officers were elected to handle the affairs of the class: President, Raymond Lindamood; vice-president, David Wien- land; secretary and treasurer, Myra Glover; historian, Donald Ashbaugh. At a meeting on a latter date, it was decided we should have a party, and a committee was appointed to take charge. The colors, flower, and motto chosen by a committee were approved by the class at a recent meeting, at which Alvin Weber was elected athletic manager. The colors, flower, and motto are as follows: Blue and gold, tea rose, and “Nothing is im- possible to a willing heart.” There developed from the second meeting of the Freshman class an enjoyable party, which was held on December second at the K. of P. hall. A splendid program, which was both entertaining and interesting, resulted from the endeavors of the committee. I am sure that everyone present will always remember his first Freshman party. The two boys and other coming ones who comprised the representatives from the Freshman class on the football team, give us something of which to be proud. Such are Eugene Steitz and George Teglo, who also represented us in basketball. There are left three years in which to develop the pride of ’31. Being the “Class of ’31,” we will be of some importance in Dover high school. We hope that when the time comes we shall be able to fill efficiently and satisfactorily the vacancy of each out-going Senior. We also hope we can say that we have always supported and always were loyal to old Dover High. DONALD ASHBAUGH Historian AMB GREY The Purpose of High School Athletics THE PURPOSE of high school athletics is rather three-fold in its nature. It gives a common interest to the entire school upon which all may unite; it gives many a boy the incentive he needs to keep him in high school, and it gives everybody in the community—in and out of school —a chance to get certain things off their chests. It is hardly necessary to expand on these three reasons. Yet it is very apparent that they are true. It would be very fine if all of us could show as much enthusiasm at a Latin recitation as at a football game, but we cannot; and so what is the use of bemoaning the fact ? It would be grand if every boy went to high school through four or more years because he loved the dictionary and the rewards of high scholarship; but he will not do that. There are some who are held there through that period by athletics. It would ba well if we could get rid of our enthusiasms by applauding a concert, a debate, or an exhibition of art treasures. But this has been tried without being found a success. Unless we have this common interest to consume our leisure and get our surplus enthusiasm swept away, somebody might take advantage of the situation to make dangerous specimens of humanity out of those having rather weak powers of resistance. These reasons may not appeal to all of you. Some of you may have heard these facts in more elegant language, yet this is the same thing in terms that all of you can understand. When the time comes for another athletic season, new problems will appear. We shall try to make them disappear as they have done so very well in the past. There can not be good athletics unless there is good support, both within and without the school. Our community has supported the teams very well in the past, and we feel sure all will continue doing so in the future. The best arguments in favor of athletics are those proving that sports make the school as well as all taking part—from players to rooters—better for the exercise. C EIM SON COACH JOSEPH P. HERMANN Mr. Herman has the ability to gain and hold the loyalty of his followers, to know more at times about the opposition than they sometimes know about themselves, and to play the games he teaches to others. Some coaches fail because they try teaching to others the games they never could play themselves, and the results are often humorous when they are not pathetically tragic. Winning the state basketball tournament last spring was a distinct feather in his cap. but wearing that feather did not cause the cap to become too small through the enlargement of the head beneath. He wisely concluded the event was nothing to get excited over and that somebody had to win it anyway. When the situation so far as basketball was concerned was none too promising at the beginning of the present season, he did the obviously proper thing by making a hard schedule for a comparatively green team and trading reputation for experience. This heroic expedient has resulted in our having a veteran team by midseason without having suffered a defeat which is a disgrace. The policy of refusing to wrap a reputation in bandages and then store it away as an ornament has proved good sportsmanship, and has tided over a situation which might otherwise have been quite disastrous to future athletic hopes. A team composed largely of new material was changed into a veteran one within a month by the simple device of playing the strongest teams that could be found. Naturally, he is more popular in Dover than elsewhere. That was to be expected. Yet his most ardent athletic opponents have a profound respect and admiration for his abilities. It is better to have the opposition born out of respect than to have the familiar popularity that comes from contempt. Dover has not been maudlin in its admiration for its coach and team. It has given praise and honor generously, but the place has not lost its head. Cities several times the size of Dover might profit by the sensible attitude it has taken. Dover may not be a big town, yet its ideas on sport are much the same as those which always should and sometimes do prevail in larger places. Mr. Hermann has encouraged this particular point of view. Page fifty-eight ANi €EEI CRIMSON WAYNE J. FISHER Faculty Manager of Athletics. This is Mr. Fisher’s fifth year to serve in the capacity. He holds a position that requires much work, but in return he receives little credit. However, he is just the type that would discount any flattery given to him. SHIP SURGEONS Ike and Wally may look alike, but they are not of the same size, age, or ambitions. Ike is endeavoring to invent a machine that will rid suffering athletes of “Charley horses,” while Wally is trying to devise shock absorbers to be worn by football players. This is typical of these men who have always striven for the welfare of our teams. Faye sixty N 0) From Left to Right—FRONT, Schwartz, Souers, Lawless, Craig, Hartman, Willow- by, Shivers, A. Teglo.

THIRD ROW—Rausch, Finley, Richard, Post, Hilty, Sharp, Pritchard, Lahmers. WILLIAM “BILL” BEITNER Quarterback Captain Beitner was at the helm for our crew. He steered through a rough and heavy schedule like a veteran. He will be with the crew for two more voyages, thus giving us confidence of their success in the future. 15 za rage sixty-three CRIMSON THE TEAM ALFRED “FARMER” DESSECKER Right Guard Dessecker is the anchor of our gang. The manner in which he held down the line would make any high school guard envious. His two more years will be highly valued by the school. EUGENE “GENE” STEITZ Half Hack Steitz is known as our “blocking back.” He seldom has the opportunity to carry the ball, but he certainly made room so that others could. This is his Freshman year, but judging from his playing this year he surely will be a marvel when a Senior. HOWARD “FARMER” MAURER Center Maurer is the pivot man for our “Buccaneer Buddies.” He obeyed the Captain’s orders conscientiously, thus contributing to the success of our combats. He, too, will have a berth reserved for his remaining two years. ROY “TORPY” TORP Right End Torp’s name and style of playing would lead one to believe that he is related to the famous Jim Thorpe. He certainly has prospects to make Jim jealous. This Pirate is especially to be feared when the Captain calls for our famous aerial attack. He is eligible to give another vear for D. H. S. CLARENCE “FUNKY” FUNKHAUSER Left Tackle Funkhauser played a tackle position in every game except in one, and this was an occasion when the second team was showing its waves. His “block and tackle” work was more admired by the home fans than by the opposing team. DANIBL “DANNY” CONTINI Left End Contini is a small but mighty pirate. He is especially noted for his ability to stop any runs attempted around his end. We can expect great things from this lad during his remaining years. JOHN “JOHNNY” KOBY Half Back Koby is another carpenter for our company. He can nail a line for a handsome gain almost invariably. John is a Junior, and will be much needed next year. BERNARD “BARNEY” SCHWARTZ Quarter Rack Schwartz is of small stature, so he resorts to science to gain ground and fame. He successfully ushered the team in one encounter, and expects to continue this fine showing during his remaining year. Page sixty-four sM 28 AHi GREY Page sixty-f ive CE1MSON JOHN “JOHNNY” SHIELDS Guard Shields is the utility man around the camp. He can substitute for a lineman without weakening the team, and it seems that he can’t be hurt. He will be with us again next year. JUSTIN “JUST” POLEN Tackle Polen is one of the four men who represent the class of ’28 in the division of athletics. While not always a regular, because of illness, he always gave his best in practice sessions and at other times just the same. GEORGE“TEGGY”TEGLO Left Guard Teglo’s strength and ability earned for him a regular berth for his first year. He is a guard to be trusted because of the few yards gained through his territory. His position will be reserved for the coming three years. FLOYD “BUSS” ANDREAS Full Back Andreas is our safety man, and a safe man to have for such a position, too. His ability to return punts is due to his weavy open field running. He is a three letter man and will not be with the team again. RICHARD “TUBBY” GLOVER Right Tackle Tubby is the largest and most vicious member on the squad. His ability to shatter the opposing line is responsible for many yards gained by the crew. Hs is a four letter man, and is one that will be difficult to replace. I JOHN “JOHNNY” NIGRO Half Back Nigro is the carpenter of our company. The way he nailed the line is to be marveled at by any line plunger. We are anxious to see him perform once again for Dover High. tf LEON “TONY” DAWSON Guard Dawson is a sub-member of the group, playing a strong and steady game. By playing another year he will benefit himself and the game. ROBERT “BLANKY” BLANKENHORN Guard Blankenhorn has worked hard to earn his letter, and realizes that it was worth his efforts. He is a Junior, thus having another year to play. WILLIAM “BILL” BAKER Half Back Baker has played a nice game. He has two years ahead of him, and should develop into one of the strong points of the team. . Page sixty-six Page sixty-seven CRIMSON GENERAL SUMMARY OF GAMES DOVER DOVER John Marshall of Cleveland pave the Crimson and Grey some real opposition for Dover’s opening tilt of the season. The intense heat slowed down the game considerably, but Dover’s fighting warriors did not cease to play hard for a second. As a reward for this, John Nigro intercepted a pass, shook three tacklers from his legs, and raced twenty-eight yards for Dover’s first touchdown of the season. We are hoping that this hard earned victory will be followed by many more as the season rolls along. Carrollton was comparatively easy for our crew who seemed to score at will Although the score may indicate this victory was cheap, it may prove to be just the opposite. For our most efficient player Captain Bill Beitner, suffered a number of injuries that may handicap his ability later in the season. With one exception, this is the eighteenth consecutive game that our crew has either won or tied within the past three years. Here is hoping that this winning streak will continue for the Pirates. The crew journeyed to Wooster to meet its Waterloo. It was a rough and tough game for our boys, who were very much outweighed. However, this does not indicate how near victory was within our reach. In the writer’s opinion this game should have ended a draw. The confident Bellaire team visited Dover with a fine past record. They registered one defeat in four years, and that is disputed. Dover soon killed all of their confidence, and made the game look as if Bellaire would encounter its second defeat. Although the opponents managed to win the game, we feel certain that they received one of the biggest scares in their career. Uhrichsville came to Dover with serious intentions of winning this game. Had they done so, the county championship would practically be assured to them. They succeeded in giving our boys a surprise, but they did not have the strength to force our Heroes to receed into dangerous territory. Although the Pirates were never threatened, they failed in a desperate attempt to register a win. Past records show that Wellsville has always been a tough customer for Dover. Being aware of this, and hungering for victory, our crew made a vicious attack which netted for them a deserved victory. Millersburg is a mean host for the Pirates. They upset the dope bucket, ami registered a victory which was considered a sure game for Dover. Our hefty Pirates have been eagerly awaiting this opportunity to clash with New Philadelphia. Knowing that this battle created a great amount of interest, and would bring the season to a close. Dover’s crew entered this contest with a grim de termination to conquer. Although they failed to seize a victory, the crew gained more than twice as many yards through scrimmage as did their opponents. They also made seven first downs to the adversary’s two. These, with other facts, will prove how bidly the county seat aggregation was out-played. CAROLLTOfN WOOSTER Hillers BuRO Page sixty-eight AMP GREY Recognizing the fact that many football men have given the best of their services to help produce a successful football combination, and have not received enough experience on the gridiron to entitle them to a Varsity letter, the athletic authorities awarded the following men with “Double A” letters: Souers, Craig, Hartman, Willoughby, E. Lahmers, Post, Richard, Hilty, and Lawless. These players are the ones upon whom Dover must rely for the success of future athletic activities. They are conscious of this, and are endeavoring to do their part in the best possible manner. They are of much value to the school, and should be given the consideration which they have so nobly earned. We do not believe in alibis, yet for anybody who does there are plenty in the past year’s record of the Dover team. Speaking of breaks, we seldom got them. Football is not entirely or to a great extent a game of chance, yet our chances for winning more games were spoiled by many little things for which no one in particular was responsible.

This choice was made not only by our local sport writers, but by those of New Philadelphia and Uhrichsville as well. However, New Philadelphia credited Dover with only six members to represent this mythical eleven; they considered Funkhauser as the doubtful man. The men who represent Dover on this team are Maurer (C), Des-secker (R. G.), Glover (R. T.), Funkhauser (L. T.), Torp (R. E.), Nigro, (R. H.), and Captain Beitner (F. B.). THE SCHOOL BAND One thing that helped us greatly in our football season was the inspiring music of the school band. While the team was out there doing its best to win, the band was on the side-lines making the most of the situation for us. There are many motives which make fellows play their best—what people and the papers say about them, what the boys around town tell them that evening or afterward, what the people in school think of them, and, last but not least, a genuine regard for the school to which they are attached. But these rather far-fetched motives are not so immediately effective as the cheers and other glad sounds that come from over along the side of the field where our own colors are most apparent in the scheme of decorations. We have told the band before how much we thought of it. We have told the members singly and in groups that we liked and still like their stuff, and that we would rather hear them play their music than to hear anything else in the world in the line of music. To say that we appreciate their presence at the games would be a very easy thing to say, but we will do more than that—we promise to help the band whenever we can—for that is what they did for us. Payc seventy 19 3 a 00 a: a SQUAD Left to right: Gene Jones, Eugene Steitz, Robert Lantzer, George Teglo, Floyd An dreas, Raymond Low, William Beitner, Robert Smith. A N iU GE EY CAPTAIN BILL BEITNER All Ohio Guard Bill is the man that is feared and watched by all Dover’s opponents. He is the flashy demon who played havoc with the defense of Dover’s adversaries. In short, he is the best and most valued athlete Dover High has ever produced. We are proud of Bill and his noble work which we hope will continue during his remaining two years in D. H. S. CEIMSON OUR TEAM “BUSS” ANDREAS Buss is a clever cageman who has given his last year for Dover High. He is an accurate passer who would be worthy of any preparatory team. “SUCKER” LOW “Sucker” has produced some handsome ball toting for Dover. In addition to his clever floor work, he is a consistent scoring ace. He has a way of making beautiful field goals at the most critical moment in the games. Low has two more years to add to Dover High’s fame. “GENE” STEITZ Gene has done exceptionally well as guard for a first-year man, and his future is very promising. Consistency is his strong point, and reliability should be his middle name. “BOB” LANTZER Basketball is one of several sports in which Bob participates. Though he has not devoted all of his time and energy to specializing in this division of athletics, his fine work is appreciated by the school. “BOB” SMITH Smith occupies the pivot position, and is usually successful in getting the tip-off. He is especially noted for his ability to nab the ball off the back-board, and deliver it to his team-mates. As a defensive center he has few equals. GENE JONES Jones’ lack of size forces him to resort to unusual tactics in ord'er to secure his share of honor. He has never been bested by an opponent although the odds were often great. His speed has been the source of much admiration at home and abroad. Gene came here from Canton and has another year on the squad. GEORGE TEGLO Teglo has burst into the limelight of our athletic events as a Freshman. “Green” may describe some Freshmen, but George is anything but “green” in handling himself on the basketball court.

The boys arose to the occasion and pulled the game out of the fire by a score of 31 to 29 in an overtime contest, but when East Liverpool was met the next day at 3:00 P. M. the effects of the hard day’s work on Friday was apparent. The gruelling struggle of the day before had been too much and the team went down to the tune of 12 to 33—defeated but not dishonored—beaten but still beloved by all followers.

BASE BALL Yes, we have a baseball team this year, too. Schedules are hard to arrange with the apparent decline of this great sport among high schools. Yet we have a schedule, and what is more, we have, or shall have, a team. They will give a good account of themselves, as they did last year and the year before. Yorkie, Ike, Red, and others will be missed, but a flock of Cobbs, Speakers, and Johnsons are in the making. APPRECIATION Doctors seldom are thanked; often they are not even paid. But we wish to thank and shall be glad to do more than thank—the doctors who eased our sprains, reduced our fractures and soothed our contusions the past year. Their touch was not always joyous, yet we were glad to have it: and, they gave their skill with the sense of loyalty and interest—the greatest combination of virtues the world knows. Thank you. Doctors; we appreciate what you did, and you did more than you know. Page seeeuty-xeeeu CRIMSON MYFANWY BRAUN CHARLES REESE fS BERTHA LOSHARK THE ONES WHO DID THE CHEERING After we get through throwing bouquets—every one of them sincere —at coach, the team, and the cheer leaders, it might be well and entirely fair to say a word of appreciation for those who yelled, cheered, rooted, chanted, and encouraged from the side-lines throughout the games. Without them all other efforts would have fallen rather flat. Those who opened their mouths and let forth hearty gobs of inspiring cheering are entitled to much credit. They are the people behind the scenes. They are the orchestra which made the show a success. They are the ones upon whom victory often depended, and the ones who softened defeat when it had to come. Cheer-leaders are great benefactors, and we could not get on well without them; but they would feel rather queer—and would look more queer still—if they had nothing to lead. More power to those who cheer. They do a work more noble than they can believe. If they have thought in the past that they were unappreciated, let them now be convinced that we thoroughly esteem their efforts and thank them a lot for what they have done. year under the capable leadership of Miss Beller. By her systematic training the work has not only improved the girls physical fitness, but also their power of concentration. They have acquired these powers by endeavoring to do each day’s work without a mistake and by taking upon themselves the responsibility of directing the class from time to time. Although, marching and formal gymnastics constitute the most important part of their work, some time is spent in games, folk dancing and contests, during which exceptional enthusiasm and pep are displayed. A class that carries out each item of Miss Beller’s advice and commands is one to delight the eye. Each girl executing her commands with quickness and firmness, standing with perfect posture, and showing pep, vigor, pluck, and patience. Since the installation of gymnastics in Dover Hi the percentage of absence because of colds and other common ailments has been cut considerably and the girls’ health in general has been improved. It is sincerely hoped that this work may be carried on so that the future girls of Dover Hi may also enjoy more healthful and consequently more enjoyable lives. 15 28 Page seventy-nine CRIMSON MUSIC MR. L. II. ALEXANDER AN APPRECIATION No words of appreciation are really needed to make Mr. Alexander appreciated; his work speaks for him in ways almost universally understood. Since the most of us have been in the Dover Schools he has been in charge of our music, both vocal and instrumental. He has learned to understand us, and we have learned to do what he tells us to do—or give a good reason why. This almost perfect understanding between the director and the producers has resulted in a product immensely pleasing to the consumers of our musical output. Words are weak things. Words are cheap things, too, for everybody has a plentiful supply and uses it with great generosity on almost every occasion. But please do not put us in the class with those who gush, flatter, rave, or effervesce when we say that we are proud of Mr. Alexander, his work, his success, and our success. We appreciate the pains he has taken with us, for by his pains he has relieved those who hear us of much pain and the keen distress which the badly instructed often inflict. Page eighty-four 28 CE1MSOM GIRLS’ GLEE CLUB AM © GREY OUR CHORUSES We have a boys’ chorus and a girls’ chorus, and sometimes we combine the two in the interests of greater harmony and more volume. These choruses have been produced by patient rehearsals, tireless work on the part of our director, and the loyal support and lavish applause which the public has given us on almost every occasion when we appeared before audiences. Our choruses do not despise the best music of our own times, yet it finds much to admire in the .classics of long ago. In the selection of our repertoires we aim at two things—we sing or try to sing nothing of which we should be ashamed, and we try not to make living composers turn pale or dead authors turn in their graves because of the torture to which we subject their compositions. Of course much of the credit for our comfortable presentation is due to our director; yet we who produce the actual melody are entitled to some credit for it is our voices which you hear and which you are so kind as to say sound very well. OUR ORCHESTRAS We have two orchestras, a junior and a senior organization. The younger organization has relatively few high school pupils in its personnel, while the membership of the senior orchestra is by no means limited to the Senior class. Our programs look almost as well as they sound. A script of our programs bristles with the names of the best composers the world ever has known. Some popular instruments may not be represented, for it never has been our aim to make our orchestras into missing links connecting past classical ages with the jazz age of a possible tomorrow. The music our orchestras produce dignifies the proudest ceremonials and could relieve others of tedious monotony. Music may always be music, perhaps, but that which does not elevate must certainly depress. And no depressions have thus far been reported. OUR GLEE CLUB On certain gleesome occasions we combine parts of our choruses and call it a glee club. We have not yet gone abroad to air our wares or melodies for purposes of profit or advertisement, as those organizations of colleges are supposed to do, but we have on several occasions more or less delighted our hearers with our combined voice, which was generally regarded as melodious and pleasing. In our presentations we try neither to raise the roof nor to pierce the surrounding air with shrieks. We try to do the thing as Mr. Alexander tells us. And he knows.

Its meetings, which are held on the first and third Friday of every month, are the means by which our high school girls get acquainted. At these meetings there are special attractions, interesting talks, or melodious music. It is not an unusual occurrence for the students to find one of the members step to the front of the meeting and display talent that they had never dreamed she possessed. I’ayc ninety A We are glad to boast of our change in the form of the club. It has been altered from committees to interest groups. By this method we can find the talent that our members possess. According to their desire the girls may choose for themselves whether they are more interested in the art, good citizenship, dramatic, sports, hospitality, music, or scribe groups. In this way all our members participate in the activity of the club, and thus we find good workers and a willing co-operation. The cabinet which is composed of the president, vice-president, program chairman, secretary, treasurer, and chairman of the interest groups, meet on the second and fourth Friday of each month. At these meetings all the important business is discussed. Each member of the cabinet is placed under a certain responsibility which makes her position a very important one. They, with the aid of the school advisers plan the yearly program. According to this plan, the president, vice-president, program chairman, secretary, and treasurer are elected by the club. The term of these officers expires at the close of the school term while new officers are elected and ready to begin their work when school opens in September. We have many social activities. Among these are the Freshmen “Mixer,” Christmas Party, Colonial Tea, and the Mother and Daughter banquet. At attending any of these you will see none of the worried expressions on the students faces that sometimes appear before examination time. Our club has been in existence eight years, and it does not fail to send delegates to our state and national conferences. Our delegates come back with many new ideas which our club so willingly carries out. MILDRED KALTENBAUGH.

The members now on the roll constitute the largest membership in the history of the club. In December the club gave the play “Air Castles” which was very successful. Noonday meetings are held every two weeks. A Bible study series is conducted along with the regular business meeting. The club was represented at the Annual Ohio Older Boys Conference held at Massillon by the officers and Fred Post, Roy Torp, and Bill Winkler. The club also sent delegates to the World Brotherhood institute held at Canton and the Regional Conference held at Cuyahoga Falls. The club is deeply indebted to Mr. Hedger and Mr. Fisher for their leadership in this work. The purpose of the club is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community higher standards of Christian character, clean speech, clean athletics, clean scholarship, and clean living. Per B. S. Page ninety-two 28 SOPHOMORE LITERARY The Sophomore classes have organized a Literary Society which is held every Friday. Various subjects are spoken of during this meeting and used accordingly. If a holiday is near, the society talks of the subject pertaining to that day. If nothing of great importance falls on the day of the meeting, various and interesting subjects are talked about and discussed. This organization benefits the student in many ways. If he is nervous and uneasy when talking to an audience, he has the opportunity and practice awaiting him, in this organization, to do away with all stage fright. He hears subjects that are educational, some modern, some medieval, and still others ancient. When he makes errors, he is immediately criticised by two critics, therefore he is careful not to make many mistakes. Last but not least, it gives him a sample of what has to be done in daily life. When one speaks he is judged by the way he forms his sentences, his ability to speak fluently, his standpoint of view, and his knowledge of the subject talked of. The society has helped the class in all the points already mentioned in the above paragraph. C. MAIOLA.

Page one hundred one CEIMSOM YE PIRATE BOLD On a dull sultry afternoon I sat at my desk in the custom house patiently waiting for closing time. It was during the War of 1812 and at that time there was little for a government commissioner to do except to appear busy. The blinds were drawn and the flies buzzed about as though attempting to make business seem prosperous. A shaft of light spread across the floor. The door creaked open and a dapper old gentleman stepped in. I recognized him as an acquaintance, John Campbell, a merchant who had a business along the waterfront of this old village of Annapolis. He sat down fanning vigorously with his tricorne, his subtle smile took in my heat bedraggled person. John Campbell’s conversation was most diverting, his amusingly aimless discussions gave me a wished for opportunity of knowing him better. For awhile we debated upon the present war problems and somehow, I guess it was the sea-fights along the coast of Algiers that turned our conversation to piracy. After the proper urging from me he commenced one of his famous adventures. I shall try to tell it to you just as he spun it for me, though I am afraid my yarn can not have the same effect. John Campbell waited expectantly at the old worm-eaten and barnacled dock in Annapolis, for the signal to board the ship for England. He was smartly dressed in a serviceable suit of Colonial buff. His appearance and impedimenta indicated, that he was a doughty seaman. After the ship’s cargo was stowed away and the hatches battened down he boarded and was instantly confronted by the stoical captain. The captain scrutinized the lad and grunted with satisfaction at his stalwart body for John was to work his way across. After stowing his sea-chest and donning his sea-togs, he reported for duty as the supercargo of the good brig “Bona Fide.” John had had two years experience before the mast, and though just seventeen he could lay a ship’s course, box a compass, write a ship’s log, and knew most of the important points of navigation. He was adept at the art of hobnobbing with the crew, and he.could drink as much rum as the best of the sea-dogs. I suppose you wonder why Campbell was making this voyage to England, perhaps you may be able to surmise the reason. While he paced the deck on the cool spring nights during the fourth watch as the moon shone softly through the rigging his thoughts turned to a fair-haired lass, who was waiting for him on the English moors near Manchester. I guess Campbell’s motives were not so strange after all? As the helmsman called the usual “Eight bells, all’s well, the wind’s northeast, and blows like John’s mind rolled its sentimental fancies in time to the beat of the waves lapping against the vessel. But these reveries did not last long, even off duty, for there was no better hand on board, and he was much in demand. On the morning of April 15, 1764 a sail was seen off the starboard bow and a ship hove in sight from the horizon with a bristling row of guns along the decks, if you or I had been there we should have cried, “All’s r AM© GREY Up” for the ship flew the black flag. But the crew of the ‘‘Bona Fide” cleared for action and soon the two ships grappled. After a short encounter the pirates overcame the unarmed merchant ship and took those that survived as captives. Among them was Campbell. He had a few minor flesh wounds but his empty pistols showed that he had accounted for two of the pirates. The crew of the “Bona Fide” was thrown into chains, the captain and first mate Keelhauled and the “Bona Fide” sunk. For three days the captives were fed to the sharks for the amusement of the corsairs. John Campbell waited resignedly for his fate. On the third night after his capture, Campbell and his mates who were down in the bilge, noticed the quick motion of the ship and knew that a storm was approaching. They heard the call “All Hands on Deck,” and realized it was a regular tempest that might wreck the ship and drown them like rats. One of the buccaneers came down and reported to Campbell and his companions, that the captain had been killed by a falling spar and since none of them could navigate, if the captives would buffet the storm they should be unchained. Campbell took command for he was the only officer of the crew left. The conditions on deck were deplorable for half of the pirates were drunk and the other half so tipsy they couldn’t climb the rigging to shorten sail. Campbell and his crew were accepted by the buccaneers as one of them and the ship continued its depradations on the high seas. For two years Campbell and those that were left of the captured crew, took part in the corsair’s activities but were secretly planning an escape. Two years after the sinking of the “Bona Fide” when Campbell was second in command of the pirate brig, the man in the crows nest shouted out, “Sail Ho!” and the ship soon cleared for action. The bloodthirsty pirates boarded the prize and a fierce fight ensued, but the small crew of the victim ship were out numbered and gave up after much blood was shed on both sides. The captured ship was a passenger packet sailing between the American colonies and England. When the captives were led on board among them was a comely fair-haired girl, the sight of whom startled Campbell, but he wisely made no outward sign. That night the buccaneer captain mysteriously disappeared. Later on John with his mates and the captured crew bolted most of the pirates in the forecastle, and John took command of the ship. During the two years described Campbell had grown a beard like a prophet and after shaving called the before-mentioned girl to his cabin. Of course you are subtle enough to know that she is the lass from Manchester. Molly which was the Christian name of this girl, had become impatient during the two years and had set out with her docile father for America to find John Campbell and they had thus happily found each other. The pirates were taken to “Hangmans’ Dock” in England and Molly and Campbell returned to America where John Campbell played an important part in the American Revolution as a privateer. FRED POST Junior, ’29. 19 28 raf e one hundred three —I CRIMSON THAT BEAUTIFUL PICTURE In the most beautiful part of Sherwood Forest, England, lived a lonely widow with her two small children, one, Benjamin, who was ten years of age, and Lily, yet a small pink and white bundle of infancy. They wer e very poor, and the mother did any work that she could find. Benjamin went to school as often as he possibly could, but when it happened that his mother had to be out, he was compelled to stay at home to care for his smaller sister. In a small secluded room at the rear of the home Benjamin and Lily usually played. One day the ntother was busy in the kitchen, and Benjamin was playing with his sister. After a few hours Lily fell asleep, and he placed her in her little crib. A little smile crossed the sleeping face and then gradually faded away. He sat silently for a few moments and then said to himself, “My, how I would’st love to paint thy beautiful face and sell it throughout the world, so that other people could see it as I do. I’ll see if I can find something to paint with and then wait for another smile to lighten thy face.” He rose from his small stool and went to look for some paper, but this being very rare and expensive, he could not find any so he took an old book from the shelf and tore from it an empty page. Then he knew that he would have to make himself a paint brush, because they were too poor to buy one. As he was looking around the room, he happened to spy the cat sleeping peacefully under an old rocking chair. He tiptoed over to it, grabbed it, and with an old pair of scissors cut a small portion of the fur from its tail. After the cat slipped out of his arms, he went to look for some string or something to tie the fur together. While hunting for this, he found some dve of various shades which his mother used in doing some of her work. He then found a piece of string, tied the fur together, and fastened a small piece of wood to this. After mixing his colors, he was readv for work. He put everything beside the crib and sat down on his stool to wait for that smile. It soon appeared and grabbing his paint brush and paper he quickly sketched the face of the sleeping child. Just as he finished he heard his mother’s footsteps coming toward the play room. He quickly pushed the paints and brush under the baby’s crib, but before he could hide the picture, his mother opened the door. He put his hand, which held the picture, behind him in great haste, but not before his mother had seen the paper. “What hast thou in thy hand, dear child?” asked Benjamin’s mother. Now Benjamin was a good child and would never tell a lie, so he said, “Mother, I have stolen sister’s face and put it upon this paper.” He took the paper from behind him and hesitatingly handed it to his mother. He could not look her in the face. “Why, where did’st thou get thy materials to paint this wonderful picture?” asked the mother. Benjamin took the things from under the crib and told her how he had made the brush, where he had found the colors, and how he had taken the AM ii] GREY paper from the book. His mother was very pleased and did not scold him for using the dye or paper and as for the cat’s tail, she told him that the fur would never be missed. That evening after supper, while the family was sitting in front of an open fireplace, they were suddenly startled by quick footsteps on the gravel, accompanied by two loud raps on the old rickety front door. Benjamin quickly ran to the door. As he opened it, he confronted two tall, well dressed men standing on the stone step. “Mother! mother!” called Benjamin, “Come here. Two men are here who wish to speak with thee.” When the mother reached the door, the older of the two men said: “As a storm is approaching swiftlv, and we can not get to our destination before it comes, we should like to know if we may spend the night here.” “Well,” the mother replied, “we are very poor, our surroundings are of the humblest, and we do not have much room, but come in, I think we can’st accommodate thee tonight.” The two strangers spent a peaceful night at this little old cabin. The next morning they awoke and came down stairs just as the sun began to peep in through the windows. A heaping plate of corn cakes, svrun. steaming coffee, a plate of bright vellow butter, and a plate of home made loose sausage was on the table. The strangers were very pleased at such a delicious breakfast and after this was over, they went into another room where Benjamin was seated watching over his sister. On the mantel nearby lay the painting of little Lilv. As the two men walked toward the crib, one noticed this drawing. He stepped forward, picked it up and holding it from him a short distance exclaimed, “A very beautiful painting. It is, as I presume, a copv of this small rosy-cheeked child. Who painted this?” Beniamin answered rather shyly, “I painted that of my little sister, but I did’st it only for fun.” The men looked at each other gravely and finally one said: “Where did you get your materials ?” The strangers looked astonished when they heard in detail how little Benjamin had planned and made ready for the picture. Just then Beniamin’s mother came into the room and the strangers, by name Michael De Lou and Joseph Dicarrdo, told her that thev were artists and were touring the country gathering rare drawings and paintings. “Would you like to sell this painting, Benjamin?” asked De Lou. He hesitated, thinking of the monev it would bring, but he finally answered. “I would’st like to keep that.” “Very well,” returned De Lou, “perhaps you will paint us one some other time.” The strangers paid the mother for her trouble and started on their journey. The afternoon of the same day, Benjamin walked out into the Page one hundred fire CRIMSON field near their home and sat down to watch the harvesters. In the evening after he had gone home and the supper was cleared away, Benjamin sat and thought how beautiful a picture the scene of the afternoon would make. That night he dreamed that he had received a set of paints, paint brushes, and paper from a friend and that he had painted a picture of the harvest field and its workers, but it was snatched from him and he awoke. The very next morning a large box came addressed to Benjamin. He opened it and found his dream paints and other necessary tools. In it was a note which read: “Paint a picture on one of these large sheets of paper and we shall return in several weeks to see it.” Michael De Lou and Joseph Dicarrdo. Benjamin was very happy and worked diligently for many days. At the end of three weeks “The Harvest Field” was completed. Several davs later, the strangers (now friends) returned and were astonished at the success of the young artist. “Would you be willing to allow us to have your picture? We have an art gallery in London where we are exhibiting beautiful pictures. To the artist who painted the best we are going to give two thousand pounds.” “I should be glad to let you have it,” answered Benjamin. When the contest was over, Benjamin was informed by the collectors that he had received the prize. He was very happy and could picture in his artist’s mind a future with a great career and a life of ease and pleasure for his beloved mother and little sister. —Margaret Swonger, ’28.

I was being held under an armored arm in about such a position as an ordinary flour sack would be held, and my hair was blown and cut by the cold wind. My companion neither spoke nor answered my attempted questions. Why I was not afraid, I do not know, but, to say the least, I was certainly bewildered. I took for granted I was in power of Fate and would have to face it. The moon was shining brightly, and not far ahead of the winding road we were ascending, appearing as a black giant against the sky, was a desolate, gray stone castle. It was not until the weird creaking of the drawbridge ceased that we were able to hear the faint ripple of the water in the wide moat. Again creaks were heard and the portcullis admitted us to the inside of one of the most cold and dismal places I’ve ever seen. A torch light could be seen, in a section of the courtyard which seemed to be living quarters. I was ushered into the main room of these, though I wras so cold and stiff I could hardly walk or talk, and confronted by a man whose elaborate dress and authorative voice assured me that he w'as lord of the place. He spoke to me in a language from which I could gather a meaning, and asked if I wras hungry, and I answered that I was not—and wondered how I could possibly be after eating such an enormous lunch before going to bed. He stood staring at me for a short time and then gave the horseman some commands I did not understand. But I do believe he did want to get me away from him for the present, for I certainly must have looked like a witch—after all that exciting ride. Another thing I do not know w'as how I ever climbed the stairs and walked through the narrow passages that seemed endless. If someone had told me it w'as a week before we reached a small door through which I wfas pushed, I w'ould have believed him. The odor of the place was almost unbearable, that of must and filth. The light through the narrow’ w’indow disclosed the floor sparsely scattered with straw. I felt there were rats and mice all over the place and it must have been my absolute fatigue that put me to sleep. When I awoke, light was not being brought upon the subject by the pale gleam of the moon—but, the sun’s rays were falling brightly upon me. I was resting easily and someone was patting perfumed oil on my face and several oddly dressed women w’ere walking softly about me. I thought I must be dreaming for the room I was in seemed like a fairy’s with beautiful draperies and furnishings, and I was dressed in some odd, but beautiful raiment. No less than four ladies-in-waiting attended me, and fed me some kind of peculiar broth and sweet cakes. Finally, I fully recovered from my plight; and a beautiful girl took me through her garden ; then I demanded to know' what all this meant. She told me she w'as 28 Pane one hundred seven CRIMSON Enid, daughter of Lord Farthrock, and I was the daughter of the lord of the neighboring estate with whom they were at war. She explained that her father could find nothing more interesting, so I was being held as a hostage. She assured me I was safe, so I watched her embroider a coat-of-arms and sew. It was nty woman’s intuition, I am sure, that told me to look up, and coming toward me was my companion of the night before. Had I not pinched myself, for he almost took my breath away, I would have sworn it was Ben Hur himself. Enid introduced him as her brother, Phillip. Strange as it may seem, I did not object one bit when he tried to monopolize my attention, and attempt to teach me how to move those horses in chess. I then promised to teach him to play bridge. Suddenly, a page came running up and informed us that the lord had been killed. Grief only existed in the portion of the castle which Enid occupied, for she was the only person treated justly by the old lord. While I went with Enid to do what little I could to console her—Phillip went to pay his due respects to his departed father. Enid wished, after a while, to be alone—so I was, likewise, left in that condition, until, no other than the new Lord Phillip himself, came to me. He explained that upon the death of the lord the enmity between the two houses was destroyed and I was free to leave as soon as I wished. Of course I said I would leave immediately, but he suggested, that it would be best if I waited until the next day. I must have submitted, for that night, he was showing me the extent of the garden. The rrioon was gleaming beautifully—and the nightingale could not have sung more sweetly when we reached a lovely old carved stone bench and—like a streak of lightning, I heard mother tenderly calling, “Hurry and get up or you’ll be late.” Perhaps sometime I shall fall asleep—and continue my walk in the garden—but on the other hand, I might not for I have vowed to stay away from the wiles of men.

They are the Terrible Three That cause him most of his strife. English is a foe of yore, At Grade school Memory tugs, And gives him words to describe Algebra, Latin and Bugs. The poor harassed Freshman dragged himself home from school a physical and mental wreck. He threw himself carelessly into a big arm chair and tried to pull himself together. It had been a trying day of semester tests. He had forgotten rules and vocabularies, or gotten them hopelessly mixed, and had made a terrible mess of his examinations. “What was the need of studying algebra ? Who cared what x equalled if anything, and how? What did it have to do with enjoyment of life or earning a living? What would happen if he asked for a job in Latin? Rats.” All these thoughts and many more in similar vein raced through what was left of his muddled mind. When suddenly a flourish of trumpets rang out. His startled gaze met an avalanche rushing at him through the air. As they neared, he made out formidable Latin verbs mounted on black horses. They dashed straight at him from the left; from the right came a host of nouns on white chargers; in the center appeared an army of adjectives backed up by battalions of adverbs. And as each new army moved up there came a new flourish of trumpets, martial and awful in their effect on the poor Freshie’s already shattered nerves. “Those are the tubae,” thought the boy. “They are just as terrible as they were in the first declension.” As they neared he saw that they were marshaled in battalions, according to declensions, conjugations, tenses, cases, and irregulars. At any rate they looked like stern Roman warriors, especially the ablative of cause battalion, which needed no spear or sword to strike terror to the now gasping Freshman. But this was just the beginning, it seemed. Over the horizon appeared new apparitions. There were bacteria, micro-organisms, fungi, insects, birds, reptiles, and every kind of animal that our hero had ever seen in the back of a dictionary. Page one hundred nine CRIMSON — “That’s biology, now I’m done for,” thought the would-be scholar. But there came a new sound overhead. First a purr and then a whirr, as a fleet of airplanes drew near. The fleet followed a large bomber marked X-Y. That was algebra the boy knew, and he dared not look at the markings on the others. They began bombarding him with simple equations and then compound equations that roared in his brain. But most of all he hated the sharp hissing tractions and the root extractions. It was getting unbearable when some one touched his arm and when he turned his eyes beheld a motly group led by an evil-looking man with a wooden leg. Our hero was bewildered until he recognized the flag of the Jolly Roger (having just read “Treasure Island” in his English class) Long John Silver. “Pieces of eight and two bottles of rum,” spoke up Long John. “I’ve sailed the Spanish main and the Seven Seas, but shiver my timbers if I ever saw such sights as these. What be they son?” “Just Algebra, Latin and Bugs. They are attacking me for the way I muddled them at examinations to-day,” said the boy. “I never heard of them before, but it must have been an awful thing you did to them and one that shows you fit companion for this bloody crew,” said Long John. “Welcome to our company, lad. We need new blood to give us new thrills in more heinous deeds than this white-livered crew will dare. But quick, there is a secret cave right where you stand, under that stone, according to the man we found in the trunk of the English merchant we just caused to walk the plank. Let’s step lively for I like not the looks of your foes.” With that Long John’s crew heaved away the stone and in the twinkle of an eye they had seized the frightened Freshie and thrust him head first into the unfathomed blackness that yawned beneath. Down, down, down, fell the boy. He whirled over and over. His sensations were beyond describing. He thought of everything he had ever done. He thought of everything he had not done. He wished now he had stood his ground and faced the three armies. He thought of algebra as a past joy. He would have embraced a Genitive of the Whole or even some Protoplasm. Would he never stop falling— “Son, were you sleeping,” came a voice. The Freshies was back in his chair, and his mother was standing just where John Silver had been a moment before. “Look out! there’s a deep hole—. Oh, it’s all that beastly Latin,” the Freshie broke off, rubbing his eyes. Algebra, Latin and Bugs Make up a Freshman’s life. They are the Terrible Three That give him most of his strife. But if teachers tell us true These Three are Wisdom’s key That keep ns from falling in The hole that the Silvers see. —Henry I. Hagloch Freshman, ’31.

Playing some familiar tune on his big banjo, A tune that only “He” can play “so, so.” And when he sings you’d swear there was a nightingale close by. Then your only hope is that it should never fly. His hair is black as ebony, He parts it on the side. His eyes are the color of the dark blue sea. And there’s where mine abide. His hair does never curl, So there’s the sign, “He cares for no other girl.” He’s six feet tall, just about. And therefore built rather stout. Of course, there’s more that I could tell of the one that I adore. But I think it best that I should tell no more. For my rhyme’s no good, As you expected it would. Now I’ve proven to you, That I write poems few. And I’m sorry, I’m sad, To admit my meter’s just as bad. Exclusive Rights Reserved By a Senior.

Lend me your ears; I will return them next Saturday. 1 come To bury Caesar, because the times are hard And his folks can’t afford to hire an undertaker. The evil that men do live after them, In the shape of progeny that reap the Benefit of their life insurance. So let it be with the deceased. Brutus had told you Caesar was ambitious; What does Brutus know about it? It is none of his funeral. Would that it were! Here, under leave of you, I come to Make a speech at Caesar’s funeral. He was my friend, faithful and just to me; He loaned me five dollars once when I was in a pinch And signed my petition for a postoffice. But Brutus says he was ambitious. Brutus should wipe off his chin. Caesar hath brought many captives to Rome Who broke rock on the streets until their ransoms Did the general coffers fill. When that the poor hath cried, Caesar wept, Because it didn’t cost anything, and Made him solid with the masses. (Cheers.) Ambition should be made of sterner stuff, Yet Brutus says he was ambitious. Brutus is a liar and I can prove it. You all did see that on the Lupercal I thrice presented him a kingly crown Which thrice did he refuse, because it did not fit him quite, Was this ambition? Yet Brutus says he was ambitious. Brutus is not only the biggest liar in the country But he is a horse-thief of the deepest dye. (Applause.) If you have tears, prepare to shed them now. (Laughter.) You all do know this ulster. I remember the first time ever Caesar put it on, It was on a summer’s evening in his tent, With the thermometer registering ninety degrees in the shade; But it was an ulster to be proud of. And cost him seven dollars at Marcus Swartzmeyer’s. Corner of Fulton and Ferry streets, sign of the red flag. Old Swartz wanted forty dollars for it. But finally came down to seven dollars because it was Caesar! Was this ambition ? If Brutus says it was He is even a greater liar than Mrs. Tilton! Look! in this place ran Cassius’s dagger through: Through this the son of a gun of Brutus stabbed, And when he plucked his cursed steel away, Mark Anthony how the blood of Caesar followed it! (Cheers and cries of “Give us something on the Silver Bill!” “Hit him again!” etc.) I come not, friends, to steal away your hearts, Page one hundred seventy ANi GREY ; Quality Service i 1 The Sanitary Market Kemp-Gerber Co.
