THE 1931 SENIOR What's the use to spread the bunl{ That high school Seniors do About the grand and glorious future That seldom does come true? “Life's own trusting pathway, And Ladder of Success, they say— Then end up with the flowery plnase, Ideals planted there forever stay. Well, I'm not here to do my bit, Or to a chosen field be hurled— I'm sailing in with both fists flying. And whacl{ away't the world! I cast away my standards— I hurl my duty hence, And live no more with high ideals— My guide is Common Sense!

[Page Twentynine] YOU Tou are the fellow that has to decide Whether you do it or toss it aside; Tou are the fellow who makes up your mind Whether you lead or will linger behind; Whether you'll try for the goals afar Or just he contented to stay where you are. Take it or leave it, here’s something to do— fust think it over, it’s all up to you! [Page Thirty] Gone—Pour Years Today will soon be gone. The Dawn of Tomorrow is near. This morning we were Freshmen; happy, care-free, like children in Fairyland. We could hardly be serious long enough to choose guardian angels. And hence to Sophomores. Life began to glow. Childhood lay behind us. Before us, the world. We began to comprehend. Mid afternoon. We were Juniors. We became serious, less talkative, the world grew solemn. We must prepare. Twilight. We are Seniors. Life seems strange and sad. Tomorrow? Quien sabe? The world lies before us, our carefree hours are passed. Some have prepared. They smile. Some have not. We sigh. Yet as a class we have been rewarded with success in both formal social affairs, and trying ordeals in the line of sports. The real serious thought of which we proved ourselves capable came to light in the selection of competent officers and an efficient annual staff. As Freshmen we selected Raymond Lindamood as president, David Weinland, vice-president, Myra Glover, secretary and treasurer, and Donald Ashbaugh, historian. The following year. Gene Steitz was elected president, Jeanette Schu-maker became his assistant (and vice versa). Jane Wendel guarded the golden hoard. Donald Ashbaugh retained his former post. As Juniors we selected Bill Schleiper as president, Danny Jones as vice-president and Dorothy Schwartz as secretary and treasurer. In our last and greatest year Donald Pritchard was selected to grapple with the torch of leadership. His assistants were Dorothy Knapp, vice-president, and Eunice Vance, secretary and treasurer. [Page Thirty-one] The highly popular Pritchard was also chosen as Editordn'Chief of our annual, and God and Mr. Blackstone only know the trying ordeals the staff went through in order to publish this grand old year book. It is June. We are alone. The fury of battle is past. We have con' quered. We have grappled with the Army of the Wise, have wrested Learning from their grasp according to our strength and courage on the field. Night has fallen. The stars of careers are twinkling in a cloudless sky. One by one they go, these old comrades mine. Their faces alight with the glory of their stars. Their hearts bearing the spoils of war. Like shadows they drift away to mingle with a whirling void, that knows no Time. They are gone. I am alone. I too turn my face to the stars. I cannot more, my cheeks are wet. Bon voyage, My Comrades. Bon voyage and Farewell. Dallas Hoopingarner, Historian. [Page Thirty-two] Looking Forward This is Station WSAG, in Dover At this hour, every week since the beginning of our promising year of 1940, we have tried to bring together through our network the classes which have been graduated from our own high school here in Dover. Today we reunite the class of 1931, of which, may I say, I am a member. I also might state that this class spent its entire four years at the old Roosevelt high school of Fifth Street, opposite the new Godfrey and Maurer Money Exchange building. (The owners of this Exchange are also members of this class of not so long ago.) This is Carl J. Obermiller announcing, and I will now turn the program over to Superintendent of Dover schools, Mr. Donald W. Pritchard, who was the honorable president of our deah old class of ’31. Good afternoon, radio listeners, and I hope that every member of the Roosevelt senior body of 1931 is listening in. It is the custom of these weekly reunions that the president of the about-to-be-reviewed class should gather as much data as possible as to the whereabouts and so on of its members. Our announcer has already told you that Spencer Maurer and Richard Godfrey are joint owners of the new Exchange on Fifth Street. Margaret Williamson and Donald Ashbaugh, who is a chemist of the American Steel, are married and reside on North Wooster Ave., adjoining the home of Mr. and Mrs. J. J. Samond. Mrs. Samond was formerly Miss Virginia Reeves, leading advocator for re-adoption of the prohibition amendment. Dr. R. M. Lindamood has a large practice here, and has recently married Miss Helen McBride. Genevieve Minor and Willett Keyser are enjoying the success of the Arcade Beer Tavern which they established five years ago in Third Street. La Dean Edwards and James Smith are the dual proprietors of the Amalgamated Toy Balloon Corporation in Race Street, and one of these days (so say some) the owners will be simply Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Clinton Wassem, who manages a huge coal-delivery system, has married Grace Gordon, and they reside in Clintville, near Winfield. Dorothy Knapp and Myra Glover are the two founders and owners of the flourishing Private Art School, located on Second Street. Yes, they are both single. [Page Thirty-three] Mary Saunders and Ruth Holdeman have both married men from Zanesville, and reports have it that they are the foremost workers there for the Child Labor Law. Robert and Henry Hagloch are laboring on papers in Cleveland and Columbus respectively, under the delusion that things will some day break their way. Every other day in his column in the Cleveland Press, Dallas Hoop' ingarner raves about his old classmate, Daniel Jones, who is now playing a hangup game at shortstop for the Indians. Isabelle Spence is, at the present time, studying law preparatory to her heralded advance into the world as a lawyer. She will specialize in criminal cases. Jeanette Schumaker and Eunice Vance have recently found' ed the Tuscora Riding Club, and have the local society members badly bitten by the bug. Pearl Davis is a tea'taster at Washington, and the Lahmers sisters, Dorothy and Lois, are now billed in Casey Craig’s International Circuses as the Acrobatic Beauties from Boston. Margaret Sewell and Justine Waring have recently married Hindu princes, and they are building mansions on the crest of Deis Hill in an effort to revive the age of Feudalism. William Smith and Pauline Thomp' son are co'Starring in the recent R'K'O talkie, “Methuselah.” Alberta Lahmers is busy perfecting a green rose in her greenhouses in the East End. Nick Mazzaferro is now the renowned preacher and orig' inator of a new and fast'growing version of the Gospel, with William Hale as his co-worker. Albert Hartman has married Marjorie Haas, and is the most prom-ising statesman in this section. He is running for U. S. Representative this fall. Margaret Geyer is married to Russell Blickensderfer, and together they are writing a simplified book on English Literature for high school seniors. Donald Beers is the speed demon of professional speedsters. He holds the record on Chicago’s new oval. Russell Blaser and Ralph Allenbaugh have just about reached the peak of flying possibilities on earth, and are contemplating a flight to Venus in the near future, with a two'week stop at Mars. Charlotte Steffey and Arah Alexander have extensively indulged in metallurgy, and are confident in finding a metal which will “fall up.” Edith Barcus is leading the great birth'Control movement in this county. [Page Thirty-four] Dora Polen and Dorothy McCombs have recently established their own private bank here. You will remember these two young ladies who formulated that great substitute for honey, Beebutter. William Schleiper and Ethel Teel are showing in Keith's Vaudeville Extra at Cleveland this week in “Where West is West.’’ Bill is the handsome cowpuncher. Dorothy Schwartz and Merle Sherrett have been happily married for eight years, and they are both enveloped in medical research work in an attempt to raise frogs the size of chickens. Ella Uppstrom and Dorothy Springer have founded a great oyster industry behind their homes on the banks of the silvery Tuscarawas. Louise Moore is teaching Public Speaking at her alma mater, Roose' velt High School. Ruth Froelich and Doris Krebs are teaching Applied Science and U. S.

Goodbye! That was Mr. Donald W. Pritchard you just heard, folks, reuniting the members of Roosevelt High School Senior Class of 1931. This is Carl J. Obermiller announcing from Station WSAG, the............... By Adelaide Burnside, with apologies to Rudyard Kipling. [Page Thirty five] [Pdg r Thirty'Six] [Page Thirty-seven] The Class Will In the year of our Lord one thousand nine hundred and thirty'one, we, the senior class of Roosevelt High School in Dover, Ohio, of said year, being of sound body and sane mind, do here duly bequeath to the signi' fied and following beneficiaries: Clause I. To all Juniors (especially) we present the congenial com' panionship of such celebrities as John Milton, Laura Eberwine, Andrew Jackson, Bessie Hawk, James J. Davis, E. W. Blackstone, W. Shakespeare, Wayne Fisher, Robert Burns, et cetera. Clause II. As is the custom, also to all Juniors the home-like and delightful assembly rooms at the west end, lower floor, of the School. Clause III. To Juniors, again, the complete and undisputed ownership and lordly dominion of the high school building during the two ensuing semesters. Clause IV. To all Juniors, lastly, the beneficial, sublime, and ethereal assuredness that no final examinations will be encountered in May, 1932. Clause V. To Sophomores, the impunity to mingle on the first floor with the future Seniors and to incite therein a smoldering jealousy as to the rulers of Roosevelt High School in 1933. Clause VI. To Freshmen, the sophisticated idea that they are getting up in the world (as Sophomores) and the satisfaction that there is at least someone to look down upon (Innocent Freshmen-to-be). Clause VII. To the incoming Freshman Class (exclusively) the right to break into the wrong class room and sign their names in Bluebird tablets. Clause VIII. To any with a foresight and practicability to make use of them, our super-powerful filibustering strength and our unequaled versatility in “plying” our instructors in classrooms. Clause IX. And finally, to our beloved instructors the endearing and delicious memory of our pleasing presences in their classrooms. [Page Thirty-eight] But, in accordance with our coinciding ideas on rigid discipline, we must here insert certain provisions which must be effectuated before these solemn bequests become legitimate: 1. You must not attempt to alter the views of the Misses Ehlers and Eberwine. 2. You must ignore the golden entreaties of the honorable Mr. Lam' bert. 3. You must not try to argue with the Messrs. Mase and Blackstone. 4. Lastly, if you are absent at any time, you must not ask, “How did the school get along without me?” If any of these conditions are violated or not fulfilled, we will find it necessary to cause a second will to be read. However, if the requisitions are dutifully carried out, the seal of Will No. 2 will remain unmolested and unbroken. Signed: The Roosevelteers Witnesses: Henry H. Haas C. O. D.

But the start was gratify' ing and several marks were made of which the makers were proud. May 7th—Our six' ty'six'piece band went to Bedford and won third place in the Class B band contest. Our school is not large enough to come nearly getting first place in a field of twelve contest' ants. May 1st — Annual Junior'Senior Prom at Franklin Inn.

We all probably regret the passing of one of the most joyous years of our life. We are now Sophomores and can have our punch at the Freshmen. When we go out into the world, we look back over our high school days and wish to pass through them again. It is natural that we should have this feeling because high school is one of the high spots in anyone's life. The desire to go through high school again comes to all of us, but the ones who have wasted their time are sorry while the students who have used their time in a worthwhile way neve regret it. At the beginning of the school year, a meeting was held and an election of officers followed, the retiring president presiding. The class retained their advisors from the year before, and, with their aid, a committee of thirteen was appointed which made plans for one of the class parties and carried them out. It was ably assisted by its group of five advisors. The party was held in the high school gymnasium on October 25, 1930, at 7:30 1 M. Sixty-five members were present in all kinds of unique Hallowe'en costumes. The decorations were also in keeping with Hallowe'en. Contests and games as well as dancing were the diversions of the evening. A delightful lunch was served at the conclusion of the party. The Sophomore Class was well represented by twenty-two members in the band and thirteen in the orchestra. Several of its members were also members of the Sock and Buskin Club II. The class had a large contingent which was useful to Coach Peterka for the football season. Some of the pigskin toters were Don Godfrey, Dale Godfrey, Freddie Souers, Tom Mason, and Eddie Schlundt. It was represented on the hardwood by Don Godfrey, Dale Andreas, Earl Maurer, Dick Klar, Dale Godfrey, Donald Goettge and Harold Braun. With the coming of spring, aspirants for the track team will begin practicing and no doubt there will be some Sophomores among them. In the remaining years in high school we hope to prove to the school that we have a good class and will always stand by the motto: “Deeds, Not Words. Donald Goettge, '33.

We were no more fortunate in meeting this new school life than were the classes which preceded us. We remember too well breaking in upon “dignified” senior classes or failing completely to find our own. Early in the year the class organized, choosing Bob Boyd as presi-dent, “Winnie” English vice-president, Richard Paddock, secretary and treasurer, and Dorothy Bernhart, historian. We have not yet selected a class motto, flower, or color, but I am sure we will in the near future for we leave nothing undone. After having worked diligently for some time we were rewarded by a skating party held at Studer's rink and, though many of us were sore from bruises the next day. I’m sure all those present will agree we had an enjoyable time. We are exceedingly proud of our athletic fame gained in our first year. “Doc” Kelker, our famous hero, was outstanding on the gridiron and also in basketball. He, and Bud Davis, who played on the reserve basketball team and displayed much ability, have promising futures with three more years ahead of them. We are the class of '34, a grand and superb gift to Dover High School. We hope we shall be able, when the time comes, to fill the vacancy of each departing senior efficiently and satisfactorily. We hope that none shall shirk his duty so that we can say we were loyal to old Dover High. Dorothy Bernhart, '34, Historian. [Page Fifty-two] ATHLETICS t [Page Fifty'thrce] [Page Fifty'four] % Coach Over a span of three years Coach Gus Peterka has piloted the Crimsons through a series of unusually stormy schedules. The recent football bookings have not included teams the calibre of Podunk and Applecreek, but in their stead such aggregations as Massillon and Coshocton have provided the opposition. His discipline both in the school and on the field has been a marked feature in his coaching career here at Roosevelt. Under this system, he has molded some of the most promising material that has been turned out in recent years. His close associations with his players have made him just one of the boys. He is the mender of both physical injuries and scholastic difficulties. His training pertaining to the physical care of his athletes is an indispensable attribute to the school. Regardless of the seasons' records and the criticisms and praises, he has developed his squad with an unwavering foresight which is ever trained upon that momentous Thanksgiving Day Game. He has captured two victories out of three clashes with the Quakers. This is a heretofore unequalled record which will be a difficult target for future coaches to shoot at. Faculty Manager Wayne J. Fisher, who has so ably performed his duties as faculty manager in Dover High School, has just completed his seventh consecutive year as the man behind the scenes. His ability is not only known in Dover, but is so far-reaching that it has gained for him the secretaryship of the N. E. O. Big Ten League. When Mr. Fisher ceases to fill this all-important position with the squad, we will miss the smooth-working and well-oiled machine which he uses in transacting the business of the School. Managers Not to be disregarded is the untiring and consistent work which our student managers of 1930-31 have contributed. The pigskins, equipment, and gridiron were kept in shape by Managers Jimmy Lanzer, Don Beeres, Dick Godfrey, and Bill Smith. “Happy” Hartman and Beeres toiled with Peterka and the varsity basketballers, while Bill Smith labored at the High School gymnasium with the immense squad of uncontrollable scrubs, which squad, by the way, should receive some credit for its “love for the game.” [Page Fifty-five'] [Page Fifty'six] TREVOR REES “JIM SMITH Left to Right.

[Page Fi ty-seven} Football Trevor Rees Center “Trev” Captain Rees was the main cog in his well-oiled team. He spotted plays like a deacon and was always outguessing his opponents. “Trev sure made Phila look sick and it was the greatest game he ever played. He also was the most valuable player in the county making the all-county team. Trevor is another who will wear the Crimson and Grey colors next year. Donald Pritchard Guard “Don” It’s just too bad that a crack guard like “Don” had to get hurt early in the season. Don” had the old fighting spirit, and was always ready to give his best for dear old Dover Hi. Don” is a senior and his services will be missed in 1931. Herbert Kauffman End “Cotter” Cotter is one boy who did not receive much fame from the football fans, this was because he played but very little. But his high spirit, his fighting speech, and friendship to his fellow players gave “Cotter an honor no other player ever received at Dover Hi. Let's all thank him for his help. He deserves it. “Cotter” spirit will be missed next year on the football field. Donald Godfrey Quarterback “Don” As a quarterback it was up to “Don” to keep the team in the game. He knew just when to call each play. He, too, will be back in 1931 to fight for D. H. S., and with all his experience, we are sure to have a victorious season. Woodrow Herman Guard “Woody” Woody was a steady and vicious player, always in the game with heart and soul. He displayed real fighting spirit in every game he was in. We are glad that we can see him tear up the gridiron again next season. Russell Graves End “Russ” On the streets “Russ” is a very quiet boy. But on a football field he is a fighting deacon. Making holes and taking out men was his greatest thrill. We are extremely happy that he will be with us again for another season. Fredrick Souers Halfback “Freddie Although “Freddie” did not play regularly on the team the first of the year, he had earned a permanent position by the end of the year. He has another year to develop into the best halfback in the county. Everybody looks forward to “Freddie thrilling the fans next season. Marion Archinal Guard “Mare” The team could always depend upon “Mare to make holes, and break through the opponents’ line for tackles. Just like a horse (as I might suggest), could “Mare drive and hold out players. Mare” has another year to show his fighting spirit for Dover High. [Page Fifty-eight] I [Page Fifty'nine] Albert Hartman Halfback “Happy” “Happy ' was Dover's most valuable player, first playing guard, then tackle, then center, and finally to the backfield where he showed his nerve and fighting spirit. He sure was a tough man, as any team will tell you. Happy will not be with us next year. William Schlieper Tackle “Bill” Schlicper was one of our best linemen this year. His years of experience showed up to advantage; there were very few teams that could make gains through him. We hope that we may get someone good enough to fill his shoes next year. Eugene Horn Guard “Horn” Here is the boy who made all other teams look sick. Smashing through for tackles and opening holes was “Horn's great pleasure. Two years of experience under his belt and another year to go. Well! Teams look out when he comes tearing at you. Dale Godfrey Tackle “Dale” Dale was one of the scrappiest players on the line and was always breaking up opponents' plays. If you don't believe it, ask Phila. Talk about fight, he sure has plenty and will be a great help in bringing glory and fame to the Crimson and Grey next year. James Smith End “Jim” Jim has all the makings of an extraordinary footballer. He placed on the all N. E. O. Big Ten team, as well as the mythical county eleven. Starting the season at the quarterback post, he was shifted to end and played a great part in winning the county championship for the Roughriders. He is a Senior. Earl Maurer Halfback “Earl” “Earl ' is another of our promising Juniors. Using plenty of fight and hard work, he won himself a letter. Earl doesn't know the meaning of the word quiet when in a game. We wish him a most successful season in 1931. James Gano Halfback “Jim” Jim played a good game and could always be counted on to take his man out of the way. He had plenty of fight, and did his best at all times. We expect to hear from him in no uncertain terms next year. Frank Kelker End “Doc” This was “Doc's first year out for football. With his hard hitting, fast running, and pass catching ability, he was an outstanding player. Doc is a freshman and has three more years to wear the Crimson and Grey colors. Donald Foutz Fullback “Don” Fear-not Foutz was never known to give up. He was a thorn in the flesh of every opponent and was one of the fastest backfield men of the season. And could he kick? Well, just ask Phila! Great things are expected of him in the next year.

The Roughridcrs started off with a bang in their first tourney fray with East Liverpool, walloping the river quintet 38 to 14. And then came the old rivals. New Philadelphia. The Quakers were eliminated by a 23 18 count, with the winners spurtnig in the third quarter to pile up the necessary advantage. This victory gave the Dovcritcs a crack at the Coshocton Indians in the scmi'final. but the down statc outfit wa too powerful in their slow but driving offense, and we were plowed down, 27 and 24 The Redskins were decisively beaten in the final as the Zanesville Blue Devils repeated as Eastern Dictrict Champions. [Page Sixtythree] Basketball “Cheese” Maurer Cheese did not break into the lineup until the middle of the season. He was especially accurate on long shots. He will he missed next year as he graduates in June. “Clint” Wassem As a pivot man, Clint is hard to beat. His good defensive work and particularly his consistent scoring made him the most feared man on the varsity. His place will be hard to fill next year. Earl Maurer Earl did not break into the varsity till about the middle of the season, but made up for this by his ability to hold his man scoreless. He will be back with us next year. “Dick” Godfrey His ability to knife through the opposing team to get a sucker shot made him a hard man to watch. He was very effective as a defensive man. He will be missed next year, as he graduates in June. “Doc” Kelker As a Freshman “Doc gained a position on the varsity. Doc gained the jump consistently the whole season. Although hampered by an injury he was a great defensive man. Doc has three more years to star for Dover Hi. “Ray” Lindamood Lindy broke into the lineup at the beginning of the season and was especially effective because of his ability to break fast. He is a great floor man and his ability to dig the ball out of the dangerous territory made him valuable. He will also graduate in June. [Page Sixty-four] Basketball “Don” Foutz “Don was a guard who saw much action as a utility guard. When an opposing man scored Don was put in to check him. He should develop into a great guard as he has another year at Dover Hi. “Dale” Andreas Although Dale did not break into the lineup regularly he was the hardest worker on the squad. His ever ready smile and willingness to work made him a valuable member as he inspired the rest of the players. Dale will be back with us next year. “Andy” Teglo This was “Andy's second year on the varsity. He broke into the lineup the second semester as he was ineligible the first half. He was a great defensive man, always holding his man to a few points. “Andy will be back next year. “Don” Godfrey “Don” was the coolest player on the squad. He broke into the starting lineup by his wonderful work in the Coshocton game. His side shot was the most effective one in the team. He will be back to star for the next two years as he is only a Sophomore. Trevor Rees “Trev showed his worth in the tournament after being out of the line-up for two months. In the first New Phila game he sustained a foot injury that put him out of the line-up. “Trev will be back to star for Dover next year and great things are expected from him. Captain “Jim” Smith This was “Jim's” third year on the varsity. It is needless to tell of his great defensive playing and he was always a consistent scorer. We will miss “Jim’ next year as he is a Senior. [Page Sixty-six] [Pag Sixty sfrrn] Track For the first time in years Dover High came to life and substituted real activity for spring football, which after all belongs to big colleges only. This spring Coach Peterka sounded the trumpet for all track candidates and the result was a promising response from the four classes. In order to get a line on his material, he called for an inter-class meet which was held Friday evening, April 17th. In the eleven events held, the Freshmen and Juniors tied for the leadership with 43 points apiece, while the Seniors chalked up 29 markers, with the Sophomores trailing with 22. Future events are booked with Uhrichsville and sectional meets at New Concord and Salem. With the Freshmen showing the way they did, high school fans are looking forward to brilliant Roosevelt track squads in the years to come. Members of this squad this year were: Archinal, Shlundt, Gordon, William Up-degraff, Kelker, Hoopingarner, Graves, Foutz, Souers, Richard Godfrey, Earl Maurer, James Smith, Wassem, Goettge, Andreas, Zuchegno, Brady, Shumaker, Herman, Donald Pritchard, Schleiper, Shellie, Carl Richards, Allenbaugh.

Reserves Dover Hi Reserves have just finished the most successful season in years. These players are the ones who provide competition for the Varsity in practice sessions. These players are the ones who come out night after night to practice and who receive little or no credit at all. In the future, the faces of many reserves will appear in the varsity line-up, so let’s give them a big hand. [Page Sixty-nine] Cheer Leaders Who? Dover!

The staunch cheering was a great benefactor in helping Dover win two more convincing victories over Phila, that of football and basketball! The service of these four (Winifred English, Danny Jones, Sam and John Smith) has been highly appreciated this year, so we take this small space to thank them most sincerely for their very distinguished efforts. Although we have three very fine cheerleaders to depend upon next year, it is going to be difficult to find a person to fill the shoes of Danny Jones who is a senior. [Page Seventy} MUSIC [Page Seventy'one] Music Supervisor No words can ever express our deep appreciation for Mr. Alexander. His untiring efforts to make the music department more successful each year has made him an outstanding person of remarkable ability. Mr. Alexander has been with Dover High for the past twelve years during which he has organized the School Band, the High School and Junior Orchestras, Glee Clubs, and a large chorus of mixed voices. We only wish that the following classes will benefit from his great knowledge of music and will learn to appreciate his talents before it is too late. [Page Seventy-two] B a n cl Dover High’s school band is an organization of which the school and community are mighty proud due to the marvelous work of Mr. Alexander. His careful training has developed the band to be one of first standing. The band consists of a body of conscientious workers who arc always ready to prove the honors which have been bestowed upon them. We are sorry that so many of our faithful members will be leaving the organization this year because of graduation, but we can look forward to their places being filled with new recruits. We wish to express our thanks to the Band Mother's Club, which has been organized this year, for their co-operation and efforts towards raising money for the band. Wc are happy to know that the parents of our community take an active interest in the band. [Pag Seventy-three] Orchestra The Orchestra has, undoubtedly, attained the heights of success this year. They have already offered many concerts which have been highly approved by everyone. Through Mr. Alexander, the director, the members have learned to know and love good music. Every lover of music will agree that the Dover High School Orchestra is equal to any other High School Orchestra in the state. The Orchestra can always be depended upon to provide music for all entertainments and High School plays. [Page Seventy-four] I). H. S. Chorus Every morning for a period of twenty minutes all students having a desire for music find time to mix work and fun together and produce some real singing. This phase of musical training becomes very interesting under the direction of our able director, Mr. Alexander. We who produce the actual melody are entitled to some credit for it is our voices which you really hear and which you say sound very well. From the works of Beethoven to the light English and American Folk Songs, all were sung during the short time with which Mr. Alexander had to work with the chorus. [Pagf Seventy- ive] Boys' and Girls' Glee Club Under the supervision of Mr. Alexander a Boys' and Girls' Glee Club has been established, and they have proved to be very successful. The Girls' and Boys' Glee Club meet separately twice a week for forty'fivc minutes and on Fridays they combin and form a Glee Club of mixed voices. The Glee Club has given one concert this year and is now working on another which we hope the public will receive with the same intense interest as they did the first.

W. C. A. came into existence in Dover High School eleven years ago. It has succeeded splendidly in all of its endeavors and the membership has increased each year. The purpose of the club is to uphold the ideals and standards of Christian womanhood and democracy, to create a spirit of service and to promote high standards of honor in school life and personal living. The slogan is To Face Life Squarely. The meetings are held twice a month in the High School auditorium. The G. R. Club is very active in social affairs. At the beginning of the year the old members entertained the new members at a Hello Party which was held in the gymnasium. At Christmas a party was given entertaining the Junior, Sophomore and Hi-Y Boys. The girls entertained their parents at a Colonial Tea in February and a very interesting program was displayed. The club held a bake sale for the purpose of raising money and a new plan is being worked on at the present time and it is certain that whatever plan becomes effective it will be a success. The last function of the G. R. is the Mother-Daughter Banquet which every G. R. mother never fails to attend. [Page Seventy-nine] Debate Teams Dover again entered the Ohio State Debating League. The question discussed was, Resolved, That chain stores are detrimental to the best interests of the United States public. It is unnecessary to add that the debaters and audiences were immensely interested in both sides of the question. Other schools in our district this year were New Phila, Uhrichsville, Martins Ferry, St. Clairsville, Ncwcomerstown, Steubenville, and Scnecaville. Decisions were won from Martins Ferry and Ncwcomerstown teams, while verdicts were lost to New Phila and St. Clairsville in the regular season. It is notable that the decisions lost were close and in themselves debatable; those won being by so large a margin as almost to make the decisions unnecessary. The power and interest developed as the season drew to a close was most gratifying, and reflected much credit upon both the debaters and the coach. Miss Wible. The debaters on the affirmative side were Glen Patton, Helen McBride, Jeannette Schumaker, Elma Judy, and Merle Shcrrett. Those on the negative side were Louise Moore, Norman Zollars, Ruth Maun, and Russell Marlowe. Dover was to have debated Steubenville and Uhrichsville but both teams dropped from the league before the debates. We wish all future debate teams much success in debating. [Page Eighty] Sock Buskin II The original Sock ii Buskin Club was organized in Dover High School in 1922. Its existence was short, for with the coming of the school year 1922-23 the club was disbanded. It was reorganized in 1928 by Miss Josephine Wible under the name of Sock ii Buskin II. This club has remained true to its many purposes and has produced a very entertaining comedy-drama, Skidding, by Aurania Rouveral. This play was very well acted by the following members of the cast and was well received. Aunt Milly........... Andy................. Mrs. Hardy........... Judge James Hardy.... Grandpa Hardy........ Estelle Hardy Campbell Marion Hardy......... Wayne Trenton III.... Mr. Stebbins......... Myra Hardy Wilcox.... ....Louise Moore ....Philip Jefferis .....Barbara Pitt Donald Pritchard ....David Adams .Marjorie Knight ...Ruth Hagloch ......Sam Smith ......John Smith ...Virginia Evans In addition to the production of plays, the club has been engaged in reading and studying plays and the theatre. Regular meetings are held every two weeks. Occasionally dramatic pursuits are forsaken and the club enjoys a social time. The organization has thirty-two members, twenty-two of whom were initiated early last fall. The officers elected this fall were as follows: Dorothy Schwartz. Virginia Conglcton Louise Moore....... Doris Krebs........ Daniel Jones....... ......President Vice President ......Secretary ......Treasurer ..........Guard [Page Eiglitv-one] Senior Hi-Y Club The Hi-Y Club is becoming more active each year. It always strives to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, a higher standard of Christian Fellowship and Character. Noonday meetings are held every two weeks. A Bible study scries is conducted along with the regular business meetings. The Club entertains with social functions throughout the year. This year Ralph Allcnbaugh and Donald Pritchard were sent as delegates to Youngstown. The Club is deeply indebted to Craig Smith for his leadership in this work. Donald Ashbaugh................................President Raymond Lindamood.........................Vice-President Richard Godfrey...................Secretary and Treasurer [Page Eighty-two] Roosevelt Hi-Y Club The meetings of this club are held each Saturday morning at eight o'clock and are composed of Freshman and Sophomore boys under the leadership of Mr. Smith. They have held entertainments with various clubs of this Y. M. C. A. and other organizations outside of the city. These young boys put into practice their training for leadership by helping in work about our local Y. M. C. A. This year Eugene Rausch and Sidney Rice were sent to the Older Boys' Conference at Youngstown. Robert Meese..................................President Sidney Rice..............................Vice-President Robert Alleshousc..............Secretary and Treasurer [Page Eighty-three] Booster Club This year a new club was organized to stimulate interest in athletics, and to secure a better appreciation of the teams. The club was organized under an able leader, Wayne Fisher, and consists of over one hundred members from all classes. Meetings are held regularly at which the cheer leaders preside to teach the members new cheers and refresh the old ones. The cheering section has benefitted greatly from this organization and we hope it will continue to render its services in the future. [Page Eighty •four'] LITERARY [Page Eighty ]iue} D. H. S.

Wible ow me down, my old friend George On a history book was prancing. He'd set up guns at Valley Forge And had the British dancing. And in a corner out of sight But visible to me. There sat a darky dark as night Pouring “Eberwine with glee. “A Hawk was hovering in the sky With eagle eyes upon me, I tried to Knapp and closed my eye To dream of bread and honey. Some one yelled I’ll 'Lam-Bcrt' yet, Came the “Eckert Lee -mc'bc, Ehlcrs!’ she'll catch 'im yet I bet, I rubbed my eyes to see. And there was dear old teacher Ray A “Shump ahead of Cupid. “Roscoe C. was in the fray And passed cigars most humid. Richard's-son had bought a “Lemmon ' And he cussed it night and day, Not a watch without a stem on But a hen that wouldn't lay. And the Miller on the Tusky Was a-singing deepest bass, “O-hi-o nary a husky And I would not trade with Masc. Me and my Kcur-le-ber,” And the old mill grinds my grain, I owe nobody, I've nought to fear, I live on my brawn not my brain. Oh the shadows slowly gathered Round my limb of Chemis-tree, And the Hawk above me wavered Passed beyond and o'er the sea. Purple shades of night were drawn. Twinkling stars gave candle light. Happy thoughts with day had gone. And I shivered thru the night. —“Dally” [Page Eighty-seven] His School Days Oh gee! Just think my geometry's all done. Now maybe I can have some fun First period Let's see—■ I'll talk to Helen and Bea, Maybe pester Mary awhile, And just to finish up in style I'll whistle, and make “her mad. Gee, I'll be awful glad If she don't find out who it is. Second period, English, I'd rather go out an' fish Than listen to a lot of rules And talk about court fools. Then, oh gosh, another zero For this young bo, 'Cause I don't have any theme And it will seem— Oh well, I don't care, you know how it is. Third period, math. I'd almost rather take a bath Than go to the board and explain All about lines and angles—they give me a pain. Ya hafta listen to the other guys recite And it makes ya feel ya wanta fight; And on top of all that You get bawled out. I know I'll let out a rat. But I should worry 'cause she won't know who it is. Fourth—gym, and oh gee! Ya hafta stand on one foot while “he Delivers ya a speech about Not catching balls when they're out. And how ya can't touch that guy And then, he turns around and asks ya why, But best of all about this beat, And I know who this guy is.

[Page Eighty-nine] An Installment Do all grandfathers impress all grandchildren with the Wonders of the preceding age? Even their lack of comfort is made to seem romantic, yet, no one enjoys the big morris chair in the sun room more than gran'dad. A few years ago I was thrilled by his hair-raising snake stories and gasped most at some of his descriptions. Since I have left that age of the childish wonderment, the only story that seems to register is the one about the way in which he used to settle down with a book and read for hours at a time. But now even grandad has become an addict of installment reading. Even when we do attempt to read a hook it seems as though we arc forced to do it by snatches—a chapter between supper and a bridge engagement and—if luck is with you three or four before the family ride on Sunday afternoon. These magazine serials really are insidious things. They catch one unaware and then cunningly keep hold. How often in the spare moment one starts an innocent looking story and then humps into that unpleasantly brief to he continued. It makes one angry. Editors should he forced to label all such stories in large, red type; hut then, of course, there would he no point in setting such traps. Everyone, I suppose, has at some time or other had the experience of just trying the first installment of some widely advertised novel and then paid out several times the value of the hook itself in order to finish the story. It matters little how you happened to start your first serial story, the result is the same. You have formed a had habit. The easiest way-out is to admit defeat and take a life subscription. Probably one of the worst things about the present situation is the way we waste time hunting for an installment we missed either by accident or because of a vacation. First we make the family suffer for several days, and then the neighbors pay the price of our carelessness. As a final resort one can try the dentist's office where the latest magazines are usually' several months old. It can hardly be denied that there are some very good advantages to reading by-installment. If you use this system, you will not sit up all night in order to finish some story. It is equally true that reading in this way tends to stir the imagination, because it is only natural that you should try- to invent the ending of a story the beginning of which you have just read. Oh—of course—such a procedure is apt to be a bit disconcerting if one has any pride in his imagination. I have not thought of any satisfactory solution to the present situation, but, in all likelihood, we shall probably continue buying every issue of our favorite magazine since most of them seem to manage pretty well to have a story end in every issue. Oh, where the dickens is that last copy of the Cosmopolitan7 —Isabelle Spence. [Page Jvjtnety] Restfulness I wondered what made the hoy so restless. He sat there in his seat, a cold sweat breaking from his forehead. Rubbing his hand across his back, he looked as if he were in agony. With all his squirming, wriggling and twisting, I could not figure why. I began thinking of bugs, fleas, and St. Vitus' dance, but this boy had them all beat Finally I guess he could stand it no longer for he rose from his seat and left the room. In the afternoon when he came back I asked him what was the matter. He just sighed and said Red Flannels. —John Ruszin. A Wreck As a fast express train roared around a curve on its daily journey there loomed before it a huge mass of wreckage. The bridge over a swollen stream had collapsed, and the trainmen could not stop the fast express. With a grinding and screeching of brakes the train went over the brink of the chasm. The trapped passengers screamed and moaned as the cars followed the train and submerged beneath the water. The cars served as coffins for the living and the grotesque figures of the dead. The trainmen that had just looked upon the wreckage were now a ghastly part of it. —Max Mason. And She Did “Now, look here, I fired three girls for revising my letters, see? said the Boss to his new Steno. “Yessir.” “All right, now take a letter and TAKE IT THE WAY I TELL YOU. And the next morning Mr. O. J. Squizz, of the Squizz Soap Company, received the following letter: “Mr. O. K. or A. J. or something, look it up, Squizz, President of the Squizz what a name. Soap Company, Detroit, that's in Michigan, isn't it? Dear Mr. Squizz, Hmmmm—You're a hell of a business man. No, start over. He's a crook, but I can't insult him or the bum'll sue me. The last shipment of soap you sent us was of inferior quality and I want you to understand,—no scratch that out. I want you to understand—Hmmmm—unless you can ship—furnish ship, no, furnish us with your regular soap, you needn't ship us no more period or whatever the grammar is, and pull down your skirt. This damn cigar is out again. Where was I? Paragraph. Your soap wasn't what you said—I should say it wasn't. Them bums tried to put over a lot of hooey on us. Whadda you flappers want to paint your faces up for like Indians on the war path? We’re sending back your last shipment of soap tomorrow. Sure, we're gonna send it back. I’d like to feed it to 'em with a spoon an' make 'em eat it, the dirty bums. Now read the letter over No, don't read it over, we've wasted enough time on them crooks, fix it up an' sign my name. What do you say we go out to lunch?” [Page N'riety-one] A Vision Beyond, a bluebird's singing bravely His song a-throbbing out his glee; Brushing up his spring suit swavely Promising happier hours to me. Alas! he's gone and so his promise Goes a-flitting through the air. And this dreary, noisy silence Has grown doubly hard to hear. Perhaps the bird was not a bird That cruelly came to sing, Perhaps my fancy only heard And like the bird took wing. Beyond, the snow is sifting down To drift on pane and sill. The old oak tree is white with down And white the wood and hill. I see it, yet I cannot see; I know. Pm sure it's there. My fancy busy points for me, The picture in the air. Beyond the rain comes pattering Against my window pane, Its priceless jewels a-spattering A long monotonous strain. The day is dreary and the night Comes swiftly but not sleep, I wait and watch for dawning light When the skies will cease to weep. And from out the morbid darkness The rose dawn comes at last, And the bluebird breaks the silence Piling memories thick and fast. I know now that his counterpart Sang but in a dream. That this one owns the living heart, His eyes the brightest gleam. —Dallas H. [Page Tsfinety-ttt'o] On Dear Ol’ Roosevelt Whoops! gang, here we go! Hey, shove off there, mate Goodbye, O Teddy R, We leave you to your fate! Hail to the open sea! Let your studies wane— C'rnon, you fellas, hep! We're off on the bounding main! Push on, my hearties all! Here we come clear the Bay-Push on! we're here to live Forever and a day! Our ship's as snug as any In best of shape we've kept 'er. But Where goes the Teddy R? She's Outdistanced! we've left 'er! Yes, she's gone, fellas, Ev'ry mast and spar. Sure We’re glad we're off, boys hut gee - I liked the Teddy R! —Adelaide Burnside. 1931.
