First Term Osborn Bartlett John Bedell Henry Bourne Officers President T'ice-President Secretary-T reasurer Second Term Raymond Blecher Rollin Snyder Gordon Groth The Hi-Y Club is composed of clubs from East, Heights, Glenville, Shaw, East Tech and Central. Each school is allowed a limited membership of twenty-five in its club. East has a fine record as it has its maximum membership besides a waiting list. The Hi-Y Clubs from all the high schools meet together every Thursday evening at six o clock in the East End Y . M. C. A. gymnasium and have a supper. The girls from each school take turns in serving the “eats.” This plan accounts for much of the popularity of the club. After the supper one of the schools entertains the entire Hi-Y with some “stunt” and then each club goes to its own club room where a riot, i. e., a business meeting, takes place. Amos Parrish, an East graduate, has charge of East’s Hi-Y. Last term Elton Ashley of East was president of the entire Hi-Y and this term East furnished two officers, Raymond Blecher was elected vice-president and Ken- neth Bailey treasurer of the entire organization. The East Hi-Y has been very successful this year and has done an inestimable amount of good for the school. It was the Hi-Y that took charge of the sale of basketball tickets and renewed the interest in that game, and it was Mr. Parrish who wrote “Old East High” for the school. The Hi-Y Club has had a “father and son night,” a “faculty night” and a “mother and son night,” but the “big thing” of the year was the Hi-Y dance which was held on May 2nd. The Hi-Y Club may easity be said to be the most successful and up-and-doing club at East and its popularity is shown by the fact that it has a long waiting list.

East High School The Athenaeum is a society of Senior girls whose membership is determined partly by scholarship and partly by popularity. The present membership consists of girls who are full of “pep” and ever eager to do things. This year, instead of Mr. Lothman’s annual banquet for the football boys, this society gave them a lunch- eon and all who were present enjoyed a fine time.

This was brought about by the efforts of some of the former members of the club, the chief of whom was Charles Bishop. The Lincoln Club meets every Tuesday, the seventh and eighth periods in room 29, with Miss Bennett as faculty member. It is a literary organization and its purpose is to give its members some practical experience in speaking and parlia- mentary procedure. That the Lincoln Club is a progressive organization is attested to by the fact that it has thirty members and is still growing. The Lincoln Club made a trip out to Nela Park with Miss Bennett this year and on another occasion nine boys of the club visited Warrensville. However, it was planned to have the Whole club visit Warrensville or Hudson Farm before this term ended. It has also been decided to have either a banquet or a dance some time late in May or early in June and this promises to be the “real thing.” Akerson, Runo Bishop, Charles Cox, Ralph Curry, John Dangler, Eugene Dettlebach, Arthur Duncan, John Duncan, William Gerson, James Gohr, William Members Hampton, Donald Hibshman, Eugene Horney, Jay Matchett, Foster Neff, Allison Plews, William Post, Albert Quinn, Jack Robishaw, Arthur Rook, Edward Sampliner, Herman Sampliner, Samuel Sherman, Wilson Shrier, Bertram Strauss, Edwin Terry, Marshall Upp, Earl Wellman, Samuel iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitimHiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiitiiiiiii Page Fifty-eight East High School J.A.Smi'T-fl 'If Happy are those Junior girls whose averages are good for then they can enter the Laurean Society. Membership in this society is based entirely upon scholarship. Many good times are enjoyed by the members. Perhaps two of the. biggest events this jrear were the party given the Athenaeum girls by the Laurean girls and the Laurean lance. Same as the “Ath” girls, the Laurean girls are now busy knitting squares which will be denoated to the Red Cross and there be made into comforts. Officers—First Term Alice Neuman ......

We are proud of our Glee Club and it has been said that it is one of the best of the city high school clubs. The club this year has attempted one of the biggest things an East Glee Club has ever done, the giving of the operetta, “Pan.” With the proceeds from “Pan” the music fund has been started. This fund is to go to purchasing instruments for the orchestra and any music that is necessary, a fund truly needed by the school.

However, when the interests and energy of the students were directed towards war work, the Bovs’ Glee Club, along with many other school activities, was sacrificed. Nothing was done by the students towards organizing a Glee Club, until the first of last May. At that time several fellows interested in singing called a meet- ing. About twenty-five fellows attended. On talking with Mr. Davis it was de- cided that it was too late to do anything this term. Thinking that much time could be saved and that a great deal more could be accomplished, a club was organized and the following officers were elected for the next term: Raymond Blecher ...................................... President Wilson Sherman .................................. Vice-President Rolan Snider............................ Secretary and Treasurer Elton Ashley ....................................... Librarian At the very beginning of next year the members are going to start right in and build up a real Bovs’ Glee Club of about thirtj members. Mr. Davis will drill them and they hope to put on a big musical next February. S. O. S. Society This society is represented b3 eighteen Senior girls, all Tull of “pep” and a willingness to help the school. This cocietv has helped in many little ways, such as boosting the sale of tickets for the different athletic games and helping in the bazaar. The cups in the trophy case, now bright and shining, bear witness to another accom- plishment of the S. O. S. One of the big events of the society this year is the dance at Conklin’s Studio, June 3rd. Officers—First Term Dorothy Brammar .................................

Many of these societies have become quite prominent and are an asset to the school. However, the work of the orchestra has not been noticed and perhaps not appreciated as much as that of other organizations. This group of musicians is never idle. Under the leadership of Mr. Davis all members are busy preparing for their first appearance at the Victory Commencement. A good orchestra will greatly improve this, the most important event of the year. We all hope that a large number of students will come out for the orchestra next year so that East can have the best High School orchestra in the city.

Page Sixty-four East High School ................................................................................... imimmii A Study Room Dream Ye gods! Our team, was losing sure, Our line was growing weak, And the folks were so astonished They couldn’t even speak. Our captain knew not what to do. Our coach, he grew wild-eyed; When looking ’round him aimlessly. At length poor me espied. A gleam of joy lit up his face. When he at me did glance. “Get on the field,” he yelled at me “You are our only chance.” I was soon at my position, A silence hung o’er all; The crowd stood waiting breathlessly. Two downs, we had the ball! The crowd was waiting breathlessly. On us each eye was strained; In vain we plunged at that stone wall. Three downs, and nothing gained. Defeat now stared us in the face. The crowd was saying mass. The captain reeled the signals off; ’Twas for a forward pass. The leather sphere shot thru the air; I had it in my grip. And those who tried to tackle me Like water from me dripped. Across the field I swiftly flew. Mere words could not explain The way the crowd did yell and sing; One thought they were insane. The air was filled with hats and things I’m sure the dead did wake. As I did look the grandstand shook. The very earth did quake. My heart was filled with pride and joy. The goal before me lay. My happiness, it knew no bounds. To think I’d won the day! I had but one small yard to go, The crowd let out a yell. Then I was suddenly awakened By the ringing of the bell.

When Coach Morris called for candidates, about thirty praiseworthy boys responded. In normal times at least seventy-five would work out. Among these thirty fellows were but three letter-men, namely, Ray Blecher, James Noble and D’Errico, the latter ineligible before the season was over. On account of the “flu” ban only five games were played, compared with the usual nine games of previous years. Of these five games, we lost four and were victorious in one. The team was light and inexperienced, but, throughout the whole year displayed the “pep” and “fight” that characterizes every East High team. Captain Blecher proved himself capable of leading the team and outclassed every center in the city, therefore, win- ning a berth on the all-scholastic eleven. Although every man played his hardest, we must remember “Bud” Feldman for his “battering-ram” tactics. Because “Bud” proved that he was a real ground gainer and second only to Marshal Foch in leadership, he was elected next year’s captain. What are East High’s prospects for the Senate Championship? They are the best we have had yet and if the student body shows that it can back a real team then East High will be one of the strongest contenders for the title. Coach Morris feels assured that the Blue and Gold will have a winning team in 1919, if the school will give it a strong, hearty support. Second Squad To l ax I) -.........

The team co-operated with Coach Morris and worked faithfully throughout the whole season. In every game the team worked together, fighting as hard as it knew how. The season opened Jan. 4th, East losing to West at East End Y. The scores were low, showing excellent guarding on both sides. Capt. Zivoder played well, scoring most of our points. The following week the team easily defeated Longwood Commerce, 15-8. Noble scored eight of our total points. Hoping to keep on winning, we journeyed to West Tech and won by a com- fortable margin, 23-10. Our next game was with our old rival, Central High School, at the East End Y. M. C. A. We lost this game by three points, the final score being 16-13. Zivoder starred in this game and our guards, Blecker and Feldman, displayed some wonder- ful guarding, but it seemed as if luck was against us. South High defeated our team, minus the services of Capt. Zivoder, who was out of the game on account of injuries. The team put up a hard fight, but in vain, because without ‘Zivi’ we found that our team-work was broken up. On Feb. 8th the Blue and Gold boys won a hard-fought game from Glenville. the score being 18-10. Feldman, Zivoder and Blecker were the individual stars. In our next game we bucked up. against University School and in the last two minutes of play were defeated 15-11. Let it be said that after the game LL S. realized that it had been through a battle. The week following, we lost to West Commerce, 17-4. West Commerce played a “scientific staller’s” game. We lost our last two games to Lincoln and East Tech, respectively. In both games we fought until the finish. March 14th and 15th the team played in the Baldwin-Wallace Basketball Tournament at Berea. Here the team showed the other northern Ohio teams what East High was made of. The Blue and Gold won the first round from Longwood of Cleveland, 14-12, but in the second round lost to Cleveland Central by nine points. iiiMmiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiM mu The Blue and Gold Year Book Page Seventy-one .................................................................................... muon................................ This year’s swimming team turned out to be one of the best East High ever produced. The team won the Senate Championship by defeating East Tech, West Tech, West and Lakewood, and doubtless would have taken the city championship had they had a coach. When the call for swimmers was sent out, Jared Smith, Arthur Kelsey, Herman Anspach and Nesbitt Kelsey and the entire championship freshman team of last year turned out. At the beginning of the season Nes. Kelse.y was elected captain but, because he could not devote much of his time to the team, resigned. Jared Smith was elected captain and proved to be a very good leader. East entered its first meet with U. S. with ver r little practice and, as a result, was defeated. The next meet was at Shaw Pool with Shaw and was one of the closest of the season. Every race was a thrill, either being won or lost by less than a foot. Shaw finalljr won by a few points. The team had an easy time winning from East Tech, 41-22, and a week later defeated West Tech 44-25. East entered in two interscholastic meets, one at University, in which our boys finished second, and the other at Central Y. M. C. A., in which we landed in third place. In all probabilities we would have taken second place had two of our best fellows been able to compete. The stars of the team during the entire season were Town and Smith, the for- mer winning first place. Another swimmer that deserves great praise from the school is Lawrence Herrinhaus. His favorite nickname is “Lulu.” “Lulu” dem- onstrated what a blind boy could do by placing in eyery meet but one, in which he was not entered. Herman Anspach proved himself a capable manager, always helping the school and the swimmers in every possible way. Rudolph Cooks, George Hofmayer and Nesbit Kelsey won points in almost every meet.

Athletics, that great stimulator of school spirit, will be back again as of old, and club life will be renewed with increased vigor. During the past year school activities have been necessarily curtailed because of the war and the influenza epidemic. Club life had almost died out and other school activities which make for a better school spirit have been abandoned. Preparation for increased activities next year are already being made. The Friendship Club has recently taken on a new lease of life, a boys’ Glee Club has been organized a few weeks ago and officers for the coming year have been elected. The East Hi-Y Club promises an increased interest in the athletics of the school next fall and winter. All in all, school life at East next year will be as interesting and enjoyable as it has been before the war and once more will the never-dying East spirit be held up as the true spirit of a school. Commencement, 1919 In this period of reconstruction, when the world must be rebuilt after more than four years of bloody strife. Commencement, 1919, lends a new significance to those who will in a few days leave the portals of their Alma Mater, some, to seek a better preparation in greater harbors of learning, others, to enter immediately upon the turbulent sea of Life. Of especial importance is this June Commencement because the need of trained young men and women has never been greater. The best of men and women are needed to carry us safely through this crisis in the world’s history. Many trained men have been sacrificed on the battlefield in this cruel war. Their places must be filled by other trained men who will be able to meet the requirements of the times. New fields of endeavor will be opened up and the trained man will have greater opportunities than before the war. But great as is the need of trained men and women now, the call for prepared men and women will be still greater a few years from now, and the high school student who is about to graduate will have greater opportunities than those already7 fighting the battle of life. It is because of the need of thoroughly7 trained men and women a few years from now that the high school graduate of today should carefully consider whether he is to continue his education in higher institutions of learning or be content with the training received in his four y7ears of high school. The opportunities afforded by the business and professional world today are very tempting to the high school graduate and therefore some who would otherwise go to college will leave school to seize these opportunities. But they are making a great mistake. The training they would have received in college would have equipped them better to accept the greater opportunities and responsibilities which the world is sure to offer a few years hence. It is, therefore, to the interest of the high school student who is about to graduate now, that he make every effort possible to gain the college training which will equip him to win out in life’s battle, and not enter now, half-prepared, upon the sea of Life. rtiiiiiiiiiifiiiiiiiiiiiiiiMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiniiiiiiiiiiiiiiiuMiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiJiiiiiriiiin The Blue and Gold Year Book PaSe Seventy-five Mniimiiiiiiiniiii..........................................................................................mimi................ ............ IMM........mimimmmmi... An Athletic Association The student body of East does not take as much interest in Athletics as it should. This is because each individual pupil is not made to feel that his or her support is necessary to a victorious athletic team. The tendency to leave it to the other fellow is too strong. This fault could easily be remedied by forming a Student Athletic Association, of which every student in the school could become a member, if he desired, by paying a small membership fee. He should wear a pin or badge to show that he belonged to the association. The object of such an organization would be to pro- mote the school spirit, and interest in athletics. Such an organization would make all the students, regardless of whether they were seniors or freshmen, feel that they were personally responsible for athletics. It would make the pupils feel that it was their duty to back the school activities, and they would take more interest in them. Our Farewell Fellow7 Seniors of East, after four years of close comradeship we are about to separate and go our many ways. Now, as we find the time of parting approach, we begin to see what our friendship has meant and how deep it really is. As we leave the portals of Old East High we begin to realize and appreciate the good that our principal and our teachers have exerted upon us, and the time w'ill arrive when we can come back and express our thanks for the interest they took in us. During our four years of close association w7e have shared each others sorrows and shortcomings; we have rejoiced in each others achievements; we have learned the meaning of true friendship; and above all we worked for a common cause, East High. We have done our best to uphold the honor of our school. We have striven hard to improve where improvement was possible, and we hope that the new7 senior class can do more for the school than the little we have done. As we leave our school, let us keep in mind those principles which were so thor- oughly drilled into us ; those ideals for which East High stands. Let us strive to live up to that spirit of loyalty to country and to friends; to that spirit of frank- ness, honesty and trustworthyness of which we have heard so much while at East. Although we came to school to learn, yet the greatest feature about our four years here was the influence our teachers and our associates had on us. Not only did we get book knowledge but we learned how, and for what, to live. Emerson said, “The great question is not, ‘What am I?’ but, ‘In what direction am I going?’ ” It now depends on each one of us to decide in which direction we are going. It depends on us alone to take advantage of the valuable knowledge w7e have gained from our four years of instruction, experiences, and association. Let us make the most of them. And now, fellow classmates, as we are leaving school with a feeling of grati- tude to our principal and teachers; with a feeling of sorrow for the good and noble things we are leaving behind us; with a bright future before us, we will re- member Old East High, the good times we have had together under its shelter and the good influence it has had over us. And when the opportunity arises, we will gladly try to repay the school for the things it has done for us. Our last days at East have arrived and we bid farewell to our dear old school, singing our beloved “Alma Mater,” the one song we shall never forget. Old East High we love you, yes we do, To your standards we’ll he ever true. Loyal Gold and royal Blue, Colors of our Alma Mater. East High, home of all our friendships strong, Hear us in our salutation song, Noblese Oblige, you will live long, Always, all ways, true.

Editors are an awful bore To call to you and say Please, won’t you ivrite a poem now And hand it in today? So here, my friend, I this present To show my toil for you; And may you never, never say. That this one made you blue. “Grouching”—A Disease There are many unpleasant things happening every moment of the day. Some- times we have great disappointments, other times we have great sorrows. If you permit every little unpleasantness to sour your disposition and pul] down the cor- ners of your mouth, you will soon discover that you have become a “grouch” by habit. A “grouch” is a diseased human calamhy-howler and tear producer. He lives in an atmosphere peculiar to funerals and gets as much pleasure out of life as a rubber on the tip of a pencil. The constant wear of the world has such a nar- rowing effect upon him that he eventually dies by the roadside like a cross-eyed poodle dog. He is a victim of the disease of “Grouching.” When you feel the symptoms of this disease come upon you, the first thing to do is to shape your mouth like an inverted coat hanger and grin. Then whistle your favorite popular tune in dance cadence for sixty seconds. Repeat every few moments until cured. Smiles are cheap, plentiful, and easy to give. Always have a mouthful ready for use, and distribute them freely. Don’t be one of those perpetual hypocrites who kick a man when he is living and then attend his funeral or send the family flowers when he leaves this life. When I die, they can do what they want with the thing that carried me around on this earth. I want no funeral eulogies, orations, or flowers. One slap on the back and a cheery “Howdy” when a fellow is alive is worth more than all the flowers and wreaths he gets when he dies. Treat a man decent when he is living and you won’t feel it necessary to clear yourself in the eyes of the family by sending expensive floral contributions when he dies. DON’T BE A GROUCH! Edwin A.

During the war a great many discussions were held concerning uniforms for boys and it was finally decided that they should wear them. Then, naturally, the question of uniforms for girls was brought forth. There are a great many reasons why it would be a very good thing to have a uniform dress for the girls. In the. first place, it would be a far more sensible dress both in appearance and in expense. Moreover, if the girls wore uniforms, some pupils would be able to attend high school when otherwise they probably would not even have considered it. A great deal of unhappiness would be eliminated, for some girls have barely enough money to pay for school necessities. These girls dress neatly and sensibty for school and are perfectly satisfied until one of their schoolmates conies along wearing a dress fancy enough for a party. Imagine the misery the less fortunate girl suffers. Furthermore, it is far easier for a girl to con- centrate on her studies when she is not continually wondering what she will wear the following day or pondering on how she could possibly get a newr dress like Ellen’s or Jane’s. I am quite sure that if the girls of East High School appealed to the school authorities, asking for this, that the request would not be refused. Mary Frances McPeck, T9. Supplying School Books The superintendent of the Cleveland Public Schools has proposed to the Board of Education a plan for supplying books to all students in both the high schools and grammar schools. It has been estimated that books and all materials may be supplied at a cost for less than the expenditure now forced upon the students. This plan has been adopted by a number of school boards with great success and would probably meet with success if it were attempted by our Cleveland Public Schools. The buj'ing of the required school books is a great item to most students. In families where there are three or four children going to school the amount spent upon school books is very great and often means a very large financial sacrifice to families in poor circumstances. If the schools are considered public schools, why not make them entirely free and eliminate all costs to the students. In some cases students have been deprived of high school education because they could not afford to pay for the books and materials required and are too proud to accept the books provided for indigent students. They feel as though they would be placed in a certain class and stamped as “poor people”, and therefore are not willing to accept the “charity” now offered by the school system. If every student were supplied with the needed school material there would be no distinction between the needy and those who do not need charity. Then too, if the Board of Education would supply all of the books, the tre- mendous waste due to ever changing text books would be eliminated. For example, it is the custom for algebra text books to be changed and other text books to be tried about every two years, making it impossible for different members of a family to use the same text books. I know from my own experience in high school that I have not used three text books which my brother who went to high school before me, used. Then again, my brother did not use any of the books which my sister before him used. Conse- quently, the collection now lying idle upon our book shelves at home is tremendous. I can very easily see how some people cannot afford to send their children to high school. Perhaps, if the Board of Education had to buy the books, the changing of text books would be more seriously considered and less money would be wasted in this direction at least. It is, indeed, my hope that the plan will be adopted. Hannah S. Huebschman. iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiwiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiwifiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiJJiHiw The Blue and Gold Year Book ......... A Stranger in a Strange School As we walk through the crowded halls of our school at the beginning of a new term, and see the hundreds of different faces, little do we dream that many of the boys and girls who stop, look around helplessly, then plaintively ask, “Where is room 21, please?” are not always first year pupils. They are strangers from other schools, maybe from other cities, strangers who have come to East High to continue their education. Cleveland is known to be a very hospitable city. Let that hospi- tality extend to the public schools. The stranger is treated in rather an aloof man- ner and is sometimes laughed at behind his back. The sad experience of changing schools has fallen to my lot. I had been born in Cleveland and had never even been out of Ohio, when three thousand miles of America was put between Cleveland and the school I next attended. The first day in that school is one never to be forgotten. It happened to be in the middle of a term. The principal looked me over rather kindly and then sent me to my room. There I was given the last seat, and a very tall, fat girl sat in front of me. Well, I sat there. I picked up my handkerchief and put it down again. I looked at the big bow on the girl in front of me and felt that mine was altogether too small. Then she turned around and scowled. My face must have turned red. I came home after school and cried as if there really were something the matter. When, after a few years, my old school came into view, there wasn’t a happier girl in Cleveland, because I was back to everyone I knew. East High School, don’t let yourself get the reputation of being unfriendly to strangers. Make them feel at home, make them proud of our school, proud to be students at East High. Alice Neuman.

Part of 37th Parades Through Downtown Streets Who dares say there is no enthusiasm equal to that shown by Clevelanders when peace was declared? Only those who have not seen the parade of the 37th. One could not help but feel and show enthusiasm as the tanned and khaki clad figures passed by, honorably escorted by the G. A. R. and the veterans of foreign wars. Flowers and cheers filled the air as a machine slowly passed, bearing a crip- pled lieutenant who had done his “bit.” Real excitement reigned as the boys passed under the floral arch formed by girls from various high schools. The girls were dressed in white and decked with red, white and blue bunting. Flowers greeted the boys from all sides, who trampled some underfoot. What cared Cleveland about the high cost of flowers, had her boys not returned home at last? The tanned faces reddened as they faced the onrush of over-enthusiastic sisters and sweethearts who thrust the flowery poles they bore upon the less fortunate girls beside them. The boys emerged from the arch a little out of step perhaps, but with flowers on their coats and guns. Mothers whose sons had paid the supreme sacrifice, smiled with tears in their eyes as they searched for the empty places in the ranks of the boys where their own boys might have stood. “Lest We Forget” Let us not forget the many boys who, like this lieutenant, have done their bit and who in doing their bit have suffered losses which will handicap them for the rest of their life. Help us to show them that we appreciate their sacrifices by giving them a helping hand and cheering them through life.

For about five minutes all is quiet. Then suddenly a tall Sophomore lad comes bounding up from the lunch room. He tries to evade Miss Kelly but she is the very soul of efficiency. “Here,” she calls, “whither goest thou?” “I left my lunch upstairs and I want to get it,” he answers. “Nothing doing. Go into Room 8.” Next come two girls, who, for want of something to do, decide to go to the library. Alas, all their pleadings are in vain, and they are sent scurrying into Room 6. For a moment there is a lull, but look! There goes an elevator full of people, who plan to get good seats in the auditorium for rhetoricals. Miss Kelly does not leave her post, but she sends another teacher to bring them down again. Needless to say, those students will not try riding upstairs again. Now some Senior girls are seen approaching. Will they have better luck? Ah, yes. They merely say that they have an appointment with Miss O’Grady and written permission is granted them. Meanwhile, before the slip of paper is ready along comes Mr. Findley who begins a one-sided French conversation with the girls. However, Miss Kelly will not break the rules, even for such an important personage as the assistant principal. “Say, Mr. Findley, you’re stopping the parade,” she says. “Go on upstairs, girls.” They all move off without delay. Now I think we have had enough of this. Surely we all agree that the “traffic cop” deserves pity more often than criticism. Coletta McGrath, T9. East High Courtesy “All right, sir,” said the barber, “next!” We all looked at each other, each one expecting some one else to step forward. At last an old man rose, leaning heavily on the shoulder of the boy next to him, and staggered forward a step. The boy was instantly on his feet, offering the gentleman his arm as he rose. When he reached the chair, the old man grasped it and turned. “Thanks, son,” he said, “I ain’t as spry as I used to be.” I had noticed, however, that he shifted his weight to one side as he walked. Looking down, I discovered the reason for his loss of agility. Some accident had rendered his right foot practically useless. In a few minutes the old man was shaved and left by the aid of his cane. The next customer was the boy. After he had had his hair cut, he, too, left the shop. When the door had closed behind him, the man next to me turned and spoke. “That was a nice thing that chap did, wasn’t it? Do you know what school he’s from?” “East High,” I replied. “Is that so? I might have known it though.” Then he said by way of explan- ation, “I’ve had some dealings with East High boys before, and I’ve found most of them to be like that chap—courteous, kind, thoughtful of others. Good work! I hope they keep it up.” As I sat there in the chair, waiting for my turn, I thought about the little inci- dent that had just taken place; and I suddenly realized that it is the little things as well as the big things that count—that give a school its name—and that each one of us can do our share toward making that name.

The king of the fairies, angered at human beings, had his throne in a Greenbaum, in the midst of glowing Bartlett pears.

That Insignificant Collar-Button Is there a man or youth, who has not, by any means, experienced those sensa- tional moments in hunting for a lost collar-button? If such there breathes, go mark him well, for verily, he is a fortunate being. For the benefit of him who has never indulged in this sport and as a contribution towards the general knowledge of the gentler sex, I will endeavor to set down in writing, the actions and the feelings, not the quotations, of one who indulged in the aforesaid sport and therefore knows. First of all, be it understood, a collar-button is always missing when one is in a hurry. I will take as an example the young man who is dressing for an engage- ment. As fate goes, just as he is about to put on his collar, he is suddenly called away on an errand, let’s say to answer the telephone, and so he temporarily sus- pends that operation. When he returns, he picks up his collar and glances about on the bureau, in a sort of aimless manner for the collar-button. Not finding it he suddenly awakens to the agonizing fact that it is gone. He makes another search, this time in a more careful way. No, it’s not there. Then under the bureau, in the top, middle and bottom drawers. Quite aware of the fact that a collar-button could not, by any natural means, have fallen into a closed drawer, he insists upon looking there for it. Ah man! Thou art to be pitied. Having failed in his first attack, the enemy turns his forces against a new sector. On the bed, then underneath; under the pillows, blankets and the mattress, But he is determined. Succeed he must and will. No mere by-product of a five and ten cent store shall get the better of him. So he renews the battle with double vigor. This time underneath the rug, behind the pictures on the walls, into the clothes press and still no collar-button. It seemed as if the very earth had opened and swallowed it up. He permits himself to sit limply on the edge of the bed. He takes out his watch, opens the cover and glances at the dial. He snaps the cover shut. A sigh, mingled with despair and sorrow, escapes from him. He is late for his engagement. At this moment his mother, passing below, is enlightened as to how the parrot had brought disgrace on the family the previous Sunday, when the minister was paying a visit. He looks at the ruins around him. Taking out his handkerchief, he mops his face and neck. He stops suddenly. His hand had come in contact with something behind his neck, on his shirt. Tremors run through his body and chills run down his spine. With a fear that he would rather remain ignorant, that the truth would be too much to bear, he detaches that something and with a trembling hand he brings it into view. Low and behold! If it wasn’t that same, little, insignificant collar-button, which he had put on before he went to answer the telephone. Finis Moral? There ain’t none.

A Day With Some Human Teachers One bright, sunshiny day during the “flu” vacation, Messrs. Findley, Schulte, Petersilge, Smith, and I decided to take an all-day jaunt in our automobile. Our purpose was two-fold: First, to while away the time; and secondly, to pursue pleasure in some of its various forms. Personally, I had my doubts as to the amount of pleasure I would derive from a trip with such formidable beings aj teachers; but my anticipations were not realized. Our plan was to go out to the Boys’ Farm at Hudson, and there join forces with another party headed hy Mr. Beman. After having dinner at the Farm, we intended to tour about the country, returning home at dusk. Once we had left the city limits behind us, we traveled at a slow, but steady speed, and reached our destina- tion after an uneventful trip. Arrived at the Farm, we all renewed our acquaintance with Mr. Eisenhauer and received the information that Mr. Beman had arrived a short time before. After a brief search, we discovered him and his party, Messrs. Ziegler and Raiseh, in- specting the buildings. Mr. Beman told us that he had had a puncture about a quarter of a mile from the farm, so that we might have to wait a little while until it was repaired. Mr. Eisenhauer then suggested a trip to the big, round barn. We all readily acquiesced, and after a short walk, arrived at the barn. Mr. Eisenhauer led us from one stall to another, giving us the personal, and familjr history, the age, the name, and the value of every horse, cow, and sheep in the barn. After showing us the animals and the huge, round silo that stands in the center of the barn, he led us outside to a shed standing nearby. (The inmate of this shed, as we soon found out, was a very valuable bull.) Mr. Eisenhauer explained, at great length and with infinite detail, why this particular bull was more valuable than sundry other bulls. After a speech that lasted ten or fifteen minutes, he proved his point—that is, I think he did. He told us more in ten minutes than I could have learned in ten weeks; but his argument sounded irresistibly logical, so I nodded my head like the rest and pretended to know all about it. Bidding good-bye to our friend, the bull, we walked back to the house and dined. Our meal consisted of the sandwiches—real sandwiches, not the lunch-room variety—that we had brought with us, and some coffee that Mrs. Eisenhauer had thoughtfully prepared. After dinner, when everybody felt happy, I took a group picture of our party. Rising from the bench where he had been posing, Mr. Beman found that his tire was repaired, so we jumped into the automobile and started off. Soon after, we arrived at Mr. Haber’s farm. He was not there, so we kept going and soon arrived at Kent. Not knowing what to do next, we stopped our machines in the Public Square and said in chorus: “Where do we go from here ?” Mr. Beman suggested a trip to Brimfield, just south of Kent, where there was a cider mill that made the most wonderful cider in the world—so he said. After a short ride, we arrived at the mill. Everybody made a rush for the door, Mr. Beman winning by a slight margin, and clamored for cider. The men in charge told us that they were not selling cider that day, but they invited us to dip our glasses into a large tank that contained cider and drink all we wanted. I found that Mr. Beman’s predictions were more than justified. The cider was sweet and thick, like syrup—not like the thin, sour kind the stores sell—and it was simply excellent. I drank three glasses and then followed Mr. Schulte out into the yard. He wandered off in one direction, and I in another; but, in the course of my walk I came across him standing under a tree. Wondering what he was doing, I wandered over—-and what do you suppose I saw? Mr. Schulte had a handful of apples, and he was using them as small boys use marbles. In other words, he was “pugging” them at another apple some distance away. I had intended to go in and get another drink of cider before I left, but I changed my mind. MINIM.Mllll IE B min...........mm.........mi.......................mi............................................................. iihiiiiiiiiii............ lue and Gold Year Book Page Eighty-five ............................. minim.............................................. Since we couldn’t buy cider, we bought apple butter; and then, as there was nothing else to do we went back to Kent. Mr. Beman wanted to go on, but Mr Findley insisted that he had to get back because—well, ask Mr. Findley, he knows so we separated; Mr. Beman going on while we returned to Cleveland. On the way back, we stopped at a farm to buy apples. We bought seven or eight bushels and piled them all in the machine. After a while I couldn t see the teachers because of the apples. After all the apples were in, Mr. Smith became greatty agitated because he thought that his apple butter, or what was left of it, was beneath the apples. Mr. Findley, however, with rare presence of mind, had picked up Mr. Smith’s apple butter and was holding it in his arms. After that, Mr. Smith tucked it under his arm and refused to put it down until he reached home. We had an uneventful trip coming back; and we were soon at Mr. Smith’s door. Mr. Smith bade us good-bye and started to go in. Just as we were starting off, however, he turned and came running back to our car. “Just a minute, Pete,” he panted, “I forgot my apple butter.” Then ensued a wild search—but all to no avail. The apple butter was gone. Suddenly Mr. Findley began to laugh. “Aha, Gabe,” he said, with a wink in our direction, “I see that the cider is beginning to have its effect. There’s the apple butter tucked under your arm.” Sure enough! There it was. Mr. Smith blushed and stammered, and, to use one of his pet phrases, “covered himself with glory.” Bidding him good-bye for the second time, we left him and arrived home just as dusk was setting in. Thus ended a most enjoyable day—one that proved to me that teachers can be just as human as the rest of us. To John Keffer, the Noisiest Boy in School A Very Poetic Poem Once upon a time there was a little boy who wiggled so sublime and filled the school with joy. He wore a heavy sweater, of orange and of black, no one there was much better; of pep” he had no lack. That boy, of cheers, was made the leader at East High, and he dispelled all fears that East would ever die. WTith yells his face got red, he cheered and cheered some more. For all that Johnny’s said, for Johnny’s lusty roar, we give some thankful votes from our East High so dear, and in more dang’rous boats, we’ll want John Keffer near. Hamlet’s Soliloquy Revised and Mutilated To cut or not to cut: that is the question. Whether ’twill pay to absent one’s self from classes, and thus enjoy the pleasures of a carefree soul, or, on the other hand, to remain in school and study and by doing so run grave chances of getting brain fever. (?) To cut; an alibi; no more; and bjr an alibi to say we will save the heart-aches and those million other shocks that our teachers cause us. ’Tis a blessing devoutly to be had. To cut; no alibi;—no alibi? Ay, then we’re caught! Ah, there’s the joy-killer; for if we’re caught, the consequences which must follow, must give us pause. There’s the respect that makes a calamity of one’s school life. For who would care to be dragged down into the office, to meet Mr. Lothman or perchance Mr. Findley too, and best of all, to escort one’s beloved parents to one’s dear old school. Who would not skip school, to take some fair one to matinee at the Hipp or else joyriding in a nice fiiver, but that the dread of conversing with some highly intellectual men, from whose offices no flat returns but is that much more the wiser, puzzles our brain and makes us rather stay in school those dreary hours than to be about leading the life of a blessed vagabond. Thus judgment doth make cow- ards of us all; and thus the happy thought of freedom is covered with the grim vision of a teacher and dates of great pith and moment with this regard must regretfully be turned away. But cheer thee up, ye flats, for knoweth thou that the first hundred years be always the hardest.

Dorothy was in a quandary. An unexpected obstacle threatened to crush her hopes. She had to ask a boy !—she who was naturally timid and fearful of appearing bold. Of course, she had little difficulty in selecting the boy she wanted to ask. She had always admired Jim Caldwell, who was so tall and handsome and jolly. Never- theless, her troubles were just beginning at this point. How could she find courage to ask him? Jim was not a member of the graduating class, and for that reason he could not attend the dance unless he was invited. After several days, Dorothy finally resolved to take courage and invite Jim. She told herself that he could do nothing more than refuse. Jim saw her coming and waited for her at the top of the stairs. Now was the opportune time. “Oh, Jim,” she called, “I’ve been wanting—a to ask you something.” Her throat was suddenly dry and her heart beat fast. “All right, I’m listening,” Jim replied. No, it was impossible after all, she concluded. “Why-er—how did you translate the last line in today’s lesson?” Afterwards, she was ashamed, but could not force herself to try again. Several days passed. At last the time was growing short before the great occasion, and she simply could not give up her plans. Finally, one morning, she burst out impulsively, “Well, Jim, I suppose you’ve been invited to the dance ?” “No, worse luck, I haven't,” he answered with a groan. “I’d be very glad to have you go with me if you care to,” she forced herself to say. “Say, Dorothy, you’re a brick,” Jim said. “I’ve been hinting for two weeks, but you wouldn’t catch on, would you ?” That night, just as Dorothy was dozing off into dreamland, her last thought was, “Why, how silly I was. That wasn’t bad after all.” Coletta McGrath, 19. A Human Weakness—and Philosophy “Oh, how I hate to get up in the morning—” “In the morning, when thou risest unwillingly, let this thought be present: T am rising to the work of a human being. Why, then, am I dissatisfied if I am going to do the things for which I exist and for which I was brought into the world? Or have I been made for this,—to lie in the bedclothes and keep myself warm?’ ” —Marcus Aurelius Antonius. The latter belongs to the school of Stoics, the former seems rather to be Epi- curean. Dear old Mark! But I wonder whether even his philosophy would with- stand rising a whole hour and a half before the sun warns us that it is time to leave our “warm bedclothes” in a muss and start upon the day’s toil. Still it is a little better to be roused by the sound of the alarm clock and the coffee grinder than by old Sol himself. How much easier is it to clutch all one’s courage and make a dive for one’s clothes in the dark than to employ that same determination while the sunbeams are dancing on the floor, while birds are chirping lazily out-of-doors, and the soft breezes play around one’s bed, making it seem a cool retreat during a hot day just beginning. Perhaps that old bit of wisdom is not so far off after all. At any rate, weighing both sides of the matter, it seems just about as hard to get up when it’s dark as when it’s light. The point of the matter is that it’s a human failing to be lazy and love one’s bed. But as Marcus Aurelius says, it is really easier to get up early, or at least on time, than late. The heathen Romans were not so perverted as the American dough-boy. The Roman Emperor, as far as we can judge, got up without massacreing the slave who summoned him. Helen Hopkins.

Cootie is such a harmless, innocent sounding name but—oh my ! What is a cootie? Why, surely you know—it is the soldier’s friend. Without cooties he would find himself with time hanging heavily on his hands but with them his every spare moment is occupied. And idleness, you know, breeds evil. Cooties are advantageous in many ways. They develop the muscles, for I have it from good authority that acrobatic stunts are required to get at the dear little things. Also, they give dancing lessons free of charge. Every soldier who comes from overseas has the newest dance, the shimmie, down pat. How did he learn it? The answer is, “The cootie taught him.” There are different nationalities of cooties, same as of people. We find two dif- ferent ones, the French and German cooties. It has been said that the German ones are much larger than the French ones and that two Huri cooties could carry away a trench hat. But, again on good authority, I disprove this statement. Both nationalities are equally strong, so strong, in fact, that a soldier could lie down to sleep in one spot and the next morning find himself a mile away from that particular spot. Also, it has been reported that there are two different colors of cooties, gray and green. But again let me say, “Don’t believe everything you hear” for there is only one color, the “graybacks.” These are quite sufficient for the soldiers. Somehow or other the cooties do not seem to like this country of ours. A day or so after our boys have landed in the States, they and the cooties bid each other a fond farewell. The cooties say “Good-bye, boys, we’re through,” and betake them- selves back to their native shores. It is said that no overseas soldier is a real soldier without having made the acquaintance of those dear little pals, the cooties. Amy Waller. The Reason Why I was walking down the street today And I said to James, “Oh my, It doesn’t seem like living When prices are so high.” Says James to me, “Why, Harry, You have no room to speak; For you know you spend a dollar On your girl most every week.” Yes, but, James, I’ve been converted. And I’ll stand right here and say, That I have no use for women. The way they camouflage today. You see them hopping down the street For ’cross their skirts it’s but ten inchesj With a funny hat and jacket And a tiny shoe that pinches. But worst of all, James, I believe, Is the way they drape their hair. In figure eights and cork screws O’er their powdered face so fair. I think the ones who fix their’s so, Are the wearers of a wig. But when they went to try it They got one sort-o’ big. So they bought some sticky liquid That’s called Le Page’s glue. And tried to paste the wig on, ’Twas the best that they could do. JSow that’s the explanation Of the spit curls that you see; At times one is sufficient. Sometimes they must use three. So I’ve come to this conclusion. When I see a painted, powdered face, That the girl is but admitting That her own complexion’s a disgrace.

Mr. Petersilge on seeing a boy asleep in his class asked in a trembling voice if the said youth was dead. On being told “yes” he remarked that funeral services would be held after class. Page Ninety-six East High School Rhetoricals The rhetorical program of the semester opened with huge success. It was a clever take-off on The Merchant of Venice” called “The Merchant of Venice Up-bo-date.” The part of the lovely Portia was well played by Gertrude Smith. To all appearances Bassanio, ordinarily known as John Bedell, was the only boy out of quite a number of the senior class, who really was worth considering as a suitor for the hand of that not always too gracious lady! How near we came to witnessing a tragedy when the cruel Shylock, impersonated by Jared Smith, de- manded as his just due one pound of hair from the head of the noble Antonio, whose part was played by Arthur Twiggs! What relief when, the condition being that the hair be taken nearest the brain, that calamity was averted by the discovery that the worthy fellow had no brains ! The play, modern and according to the times, was very much appreciated. Time between acts was pleasantly taken up by Aleen Mc- Conahay who played several violin selections. Our second program consisted of two one-act plays, “A Medicine Show,” bv Stuart Walker, and “A Woman’s Won’t,” respectively. The setting of the first was on the banks of the Ohio river. Those participating were: Norton Feldman, Runo Ackerson, and Samuel Sampliner as the medicine man. The languid southern drawl and lazy attitudes of the boys and the swagger and self-importance of the doctor were played to perfection. “A Woman’s Won’t” was a most amusing dramatic production. The characters were as follows: The Young Wife..... Her Mother ........ H er Father ....... The Young Husband Maid .............. Butler ............ ...........Amy Waller .Mary Frances McPeck ...Howard Greenbaum .........Richard Rowe ..........Marion Garson ............Paul Zorn The outstanding character of the play was the obstinacy not of woman only but of a husband and wife toward each other. Never to change one’s mind when it is once made up, seemed to be the policy of the players, which same policy, as might be imagined, came near to destroying the life of three happy (?) families. But, of course, the quarrel caused by this policy was pleasantly cleared up, espe- cially when the mother was tricked into saying without full realization wdiat she did (much to the amusement of all) : “Thank goodness ! the table is spread.” Gor- don Groth between plays favored the school with several selections on the violin. .................................mum......................... unum.................................. The Blue and Gold Yea Book Page Ninety-seven ihiiiiiiMiiinmmiiiMimimMimnmi The next program was held April 25th. The play given was ‘‘The Ghost of Jerry Bunder.” The scene was laid in an old-fashioned hotel, late one evening in winter. The cast was: Mr. Penfold....... Dr. Leek ......... Mr. Hirst (Ghost) George, the waiter. Mr. Sommers....... Mr. Beldon........ Mr. Malcolm....... ....Kenneth Brew .........Fred Ott ...Wilson Sherman Raymond Bleclcer .....Elton Ashley .....William Gohr ....George Drach It is claimed that a ghost had once been seen in the house. One of the fellows, deciding to impersonate the ghost and frighten the others, leaves the room. Soon after, George, the old waiter, rushes in scared out of at least one of the proverbial nine lives and claims to have seen some hideous object. Immediately with a groan the first fellow stumbles in and, apparently much wrought up, tells about the terri- ble ghost he has just seen. All but one leave to investigate. Then he admits that he was just bluffing and he, himself, had scared George. When they return from a fruitless search of the house these two retire from the room. The doctor produces a pistol “in case of emergency.” Soon they hear a weird noise, the door opens and the ghost glides in. The doctor shoots and kills the “ghost,” whom upon fur- ther examination he afterwards learns to be his friend, Mr. Hirst. The suspense produced throughout by the boys was quite remarkable, especially when the ghost entered and was killed. The play was unusually well performed. Next, “Our Aunt from California” was staged with the following cast: Mrs. Merry Muntoburn Sally Needy........... Rosalie Needy......... Felicia K. Needy...... Mrs. Needy............ Miss Wilcoxandgibbs... The Maid.............. ...Frances Williams ........Helen Focke .....Irene Thomas ______Lucy Joseph ...Collettai McGrath Lauretta Gottfried ....Virginia Harris The comic element of the play lay in the aunt’s misuse of words and in the unexpected situations created. The rhetorical program as a whole was most entertaining to the school and well worth the time and effort gladly put into it by Miss O’Grady and the members of the senior class. G. F. B. Behind the Scenes We like to see the villian die— Or if he lives we wonder why With pleasure or dismay. And when some faint or flaring light. Like Billy Sunday, heaves in sight. We get the nerve to stay. We always learn and can’t forget That half the tears and laughs we get Are not before our eyes. They come from out behind the scenes. And mostly thru the “in-betweens” When Miss O’Grady sighs. So here’s to all who keep the books Or seek to make the actor’s looks— More pink, for pale they are; And here’s to they who move behind The drops, that do not make us blind To worlds behind the Star.

The school that fails to keep in mind at all times the future welfare of the student fails in its purpose. The successful school, the desirable school, the finishing school for High School and College graduates, is the one beyond the experimental period. It is the one that can be judged by the results attained. For seventy years, Spencerian Commercial School has been building an enviable repu- tation through the success of its graduates. It is approved by the Educational Depart- ment of the State of Ohio, the highest of endorsements. It is chartered by the state to confer de- grees. Opportunities in business are unlim- ited for those who have a well balanced education, supplemented by practical busi- ness training. Spencerian offers beginning and advanced course in all departments of business. Request the new illustrated catalog. Write, phone or visit the school.
