They must excel not only in scholarship and leadership, but must have an excellent attendance record as well. They must be among the upper ten per cent of the senior class and have been at East Night for at least tWO years. Those who have been placed on the Honor Roll have evinced qualities which not only have merited high praise in school, but Which, we venture to predict, will also merit success in the broader field of life. They will be among the leaders in their chosen profession We, the Rostrum Staff, congratulate you on your present achievements and wish you continued suc- cess in the future. eJ. J. 17 18 TO THE FACULTY E, Who are about to graduate salute yoube Faculty of East Night High School. For five years you have guided us along the steep and difficult path of learning. For uve years you have shared our fears and aspirations. For five years your wholehearted cooperation with us in our social affairs has helped make them successful. From all of these things we have come to realize your deep and abiding interest in us not only as students but also as human beings. With some of you we have begun friendships that we hope Will endure beyond the portals of East Night High School. To all of you we owe more than we can ever express in words. As we enter other spheres of action we shall en- deavor to uphold the ideals Which you have taught us. We shall look back with gratitude to the days when we first met youeFaculty of East Night High School. FROM THE FACULTY EMBERS of the Senior Class, you have come to the parting of the ways. Some of you Will go to college, others will seek success in the business or pro- fessionalworld, but every One of you has made acquain- tances, contacts, and formed friendships that Will in many cases last for the rest of your life and make it fuller and richer. In learning to know you and to share your prob- lems both in and out of the class room, we, your Fac- ulty, feel that we have forged another link in a chain of glorious associations that Will last through the years. Graduation does not always signify parting and we hope that in regard to you it means the beginning of even more sincere, more happy, and more intimate relations. Memories sometimes fade, even the pictures painted by words lose their clarity and luster With the ' passage of time; yet may the pictures in this book, and the words in this message always serve to make more Vivid your moments of remembrance, recalling your petty troubles and your joyous achievements at East Night High School. May the Facultyts greeting to you, Members of the Senior Class, be have sed non valehehail but not farewell! eL. G. B. 19 FACULTY DIRECTORY Batterson, P.

These years of night study have meant constant sacriiice and continuous application to your task. Many could not withstand the temptations and gave up the struggle. You have finished your course at East Night and your best reward is in that achievement. The habits and attitudes that you have developed will continually enlarge and enrich your life. It has been a pleasure to work With you. Your teachers have commented often on your sincerity, your respectful attitude, and your fine spirit of good fellowship. We shall treasure the memory of the Class of 1928. May you always carry with you the memory and spirit of East Night. We Wish you success and happiness in the study and work that lies ahead. -H. E. INSKEEP. 23 24 FRED R. ROEBUCK Assistant P4 inm'pal J ,7 z. ,7 ,, f ! , ; 2:1, Z06; .7 , r . xfi ASSISTANT PRINCIPALiS MESSAGE ORE than two thousand years ago, Aristotle observed that a state cannot be governed by the public opinion of its people if its citizens are too numerous to be reached by the voice of one man alone. This statement became valid When the Roman Empire fell. The Renaissance reiterated the truth of this observation and added an additional clause, namely, that education is the important agent in the perpetuation and growth of the state. It may well be that you have more knowledge than Aristotle and the scholars of the Renaissance; it is not that you are more brilliant than they ; for from their great works you have derived many hints and clues, so that it is possible for you to achieve even to a greater degree than did these men. My wish for you, the graduating class of 1938, is that you will perpetuate the culture achieved by the great men of the past and of the present, that you Will contribute to its further growth, and thus bring renown to yourselves and to East Night High. -FRED R.

While we are all elated at having completed our high school course, there will be some pangs of regret at leaving our beloved school, and one of the main factors of this regret will be the termination of our contacts With the teachers. During the flve years at East Night we have come to regard our teachers not as task masters, but as true friends, always trying to help us gain that priceless gem- an education. To the J uniors who will follow in our footsteps, we are certain that the faculty and the students will always be ready to help you through your last year at East Night. We also feel sure you will form many iine friendships, just as we have done during the last year, due to the many clubs and other social activities Which the school offers. By our humble efforts we have tried to make our class, in all ways, the very best that East Night ever produced. Not only did we strive to equal the ideals and accomplishments of former classes, but we endeavored to create new ideals and attain greater accomplishments. In bidding farewell to our school, Mr. Inskeep, Mr. Roebuck, the faculty and our fellow students, our minds are filled with the fondest recollections of the past and with the highest ideals and hopes for the future. wJRENE YOUNG. SENIORS SENIOR OFFICERS FREDERICK FISCHER President ELLOW members of the Class of 1938, you are leaving East Night as others before you have done with many a back ward glance. The teachers, the activities, and the ideals of the school have made a permanent impression on each and every one of us. We know that as the years go by we shall treasure the remembrance of our teachers, and endeavor to uphold the ideals they have instilled in our hearts. eF. F.

The last swift brush stroke has been made, the easel and the paints stand idle. You Seniors of 1938 have painted a most inspiring portrait. It Will take its rightful place in East Nightls collection of masterpieces of former years. You are now ready to start on a far, far greater canvas. We Juniors are faced With mingled feelings of envy and eagerness ; envy, because of the achievements Which you have accomplished and eagerness to attempt the equalling or bettering of those achievements. You stand on the horizon of Life, we a step below, With our shoulders squared to receive the burden you leave for us. It might be well for us all to remember those stirring words of Theodore Roosevelt, It is only through labor and painful effort, by grim determina- tion and resolute courage, that we move on to better things? -Wilbur Caldwell. JUNIORS JUNIOR OFFICERS WILBUR CALDWELL President MERGING from the Chrysalis of lower class apprenticeship, we find ourselves in the Junior stage of development. Up to this time perhaps, We have been a little indifferent to school activities. We now begin to spread our wings. We find that East Night High holds a more significant meaning for us than just a name. Our freshened spirits spur us 011 to accomplish- ments that will scatter glory and fame over our soon-to-be Alma Mater. To use a rather time-worn yet appropriate expression, we have uput our shoulders to the wheel? We are ready to carry on where the graduates have left off, and with the courage of our convictions, we feel certain that we will emerge as Seniors triumphant. The year 1939 holds great promise for Junior aspirants and we look forward with eagerness to the task of hnding our place in the scholastic sun. wWILBUR CALDWE L It LJ .1 A: .ll 4 ' JOHN MEYER MARY JANE WILLIAMS MARGARET THOMAS Vice-President Secretary Treasurer First 7'ozu-Ozzia Neal, Jeanne Smith, Beatrice Orr, Bessie Robinson, Eunice Crain, Violet Koshoner, Reva Carlin, Vera Belk Second ro'meeL-oy Penn, Branon Mullins, Floyic Longino, Marie Luersen, Katherine Durham, Betty King, Cornelia Taylor, Edward Yorukoff, Robert McManus Third ruw-Gus Varga, Bob Farsing, Wilbur Caldwell, Harold Schindler, Paul Bang, Howard Tranor, Hugh Mullen, George 0.

The only players Who returned from last yearts squad were Edward Reiners, Don Delmonico and Willard Stoll. Among the new candidates for the team were: Ray Crawford, Red Mc- Carthy, Ed Hartley, Ed Schuman, Wm. Powell, Bill Kemper, Jim Con- way, Nick Weber, Roswell Terry, Lester Hettinger, Ed White, Joe Link, Bob Hall, Bill Newell, Earl Cassan, Red Guele. The highlight of the season was the Thanksgiving day game between East Night and our arch rival, West Night. The players had been looking forward to this contest all season. When it did arrive, they proved their spirit by playing splendidly. The game ended a scoreless tie, but it was full of thrills, and featured great defensive stands by both teams. Much credit shouid go to the players for their loyalty, and their willingness to give up their evenings and Sundays in order to play football for East Night. A vote of thanks goes to Mr. J ohn Ross, a former member of East Night, for his cooperation and help while acting as assistant coach to the team. eE. W. BUSAM, Coach. FOOTBALL TEAM E. SCHUMANN E.

WEBER 51 52 BOYS' BASKETBALL HE opening of the current Basketball season at East Night High was in the form of a reunion for many of the players. Among those who returned frOm last yeafs team were: Edward Goetz, Earl Shannon, Raymond Crawford, Don Delmonico, Ed- ward Schumann, and Albert Schaefer. New Members of the squad were: William Kemper, George Slaughter, tHoott Gibson, tRed McCarthy, Edward Boston, Richard Meyers, Charles Dinsmore and Bud Hudepohl. This group of players faced a new season with a very diffi- cult task confronting them. They wanted to end the season with a better record than that compiled by last yeafs team. Our one disappointment of the season was losing a game to West Night. We played the game at the West Night Gym, and lost by two points in the last five seconds of play. However, we gained revenge for this defeat by trouncing West Night later in the season. The boys Who Will be 10st to the team due to graduation are: Earl Shannon, Ray Crawford, George Slaughter, Don Delmonico, tHooth Gibson, and Albert Shafer. Players behind the lines Whose cooperation also played its part in our victories are: Mr. Inskeep, Mr. Roebuck, and John Ross. Mr. Newell and M1 . Lasandro, our two managers, also de- serve our thanks. --E. W. BUSAM, Coach. BASKETBALL TEAM DINSMORE MEYER HUDEPOHL CRAWFORD DELMONICA MCCARTHY SLAUGHTER KEMPER SHAFER SHANNON GIBSON BOSTON 53 GIRLSt BASKETBALL COACH ROSS WE ARE living in a changing civilization and new solutions must be presented to age old problems. The present day philosophy, aptly expressed in one word ttchange is nowhere more marked than in the new aims and achievements of athletics and physical education for girls and women in our schools. Today, the girl needs different types of activities, and every partici- pant should come in contact with a program which has for its highest purpose the attainment of poise, power and proper development. An oppor- tunity should be provided for the girl to find the sport in which she is interested and to recognize the merits of all other activities. Participation in sports by girls will give them confidence in them- selves and also the will to win. The mark of our worth to ourselves is the ease and accuray with which we can perform what we have set out to do. The desire to learn and win faith in your fellow athletes, as well as faith in your coach, caused your team to have an enviable record this year. Let me congratulate you for your tine exhibitions of sportsmanship. You deserved to win. Jone H. Ross, Coach.

Whitt EAST KNIGHTS THE beginning of 1937-38 school year saw one of the most popular organi- zations of East Night, the East Knights, embark on its tenth anni- versary. The club is composed of voluntary workers and limited to pre-juniors, juniors and seniors. The organization is primarily a social club formed for the purpose of furthering ttschool spirit among the students by sponsoring various social activities throughout the year. The proceeds of these activities go toward hnancing the Rostrum. This year, the East Knights sponsored the HHomecoming Dance given at the D. A. V. Hall in Walnut Hills; the annual Pre-Lenten dance given at the Tally-Ho, the Forum Spring Frolic, and the annual Moon- light Boat Ride. We hope that future classes of East Night will carry on the work of the East Knights and do their best to make more enjoyable the social life of the school as well as to give financial support to the Rostrum. 10 h mg, .

Various phases of public speaking and debating have been discussed. The programs have been sufficiently diversified to satisfy the interests of all members. Sub- jects have ranged from the humorous to the serious, and procedures have included extemporaneous speaking, round table discussions, and formal debates. Under the very capable direction of Mr. Louis G. Boeh, the Forum Club has enjoyed a rebirth of its former glory-that of being one of East Nighths most active clubs. -Robert J .

This year the club visited the East End Pumping station, the Times- Star, Taystee Bread, the Union Gas and Electric Power Station at Rose Street, the Miller Dairy, and the Mitchel Observatory. It has been the custom of the club to furnish at least one interesting science speaker each year for a school auditorium session. This year the club outdid itself. Karl Kalowski gave an unusual illustrated lecture on wild life. In addition to this the club also had an ttafter schooln speaker Who presented an entertaining talk on the sun and its planets.

Plays for the year were planned With the view of giving each member a chance to fulfill his purpose. 65 66 First rawhHelen Thompson, Evelyn Dick, John Ross, Elizabeth Lampe, Helen Davis Second rathrs.

Under the most capable, understanding direction of Mr. Willis Beckett, the Glee Club has made great progress. It took a commanding position in the sparkling performance of HThe Mikado,H East Night's outstanding achievement of 1938. After The Mikadot most of the cast enjoyed a rousing party which proved that belonging to the Glee Club has its light moments. The Glee Club realizes its supreme ambition When it renders the music for the graduation exercises. To achieve perfection in this endeavor requires great diligence of the members and patience of the director. The Glee Club is an essential part of life at East Night High School, and deserves the cooperation and support of all students.

It is from the sale of the Rostrum that our greatest revenue is realized. Early in the year an effort was made to obtain the best possible sales- representatives in each room. Frequently, this small group of workers found it difficult to live up to their motto, h'Make our Home Room sales 10070. There were many reasons for this: Students new to East Night wished to know the merits of the Rostrums of previous years; others wanted to know about the makeup or the description of the current issue. However, the staff was eager to tell of our many years of high rating and the many new and unusual features in this yearts book. Due to the diiigence of the Circulation Staff, we can point with pride to another East Night achievement, The Rostrum of 1938. eEverett H. Campbell. 71 TYPING - MRS.

This highly praised piece of art was very ably interpreted by May Bonnick as itKate Luce? Warren Holcomb as ttSmoke, and Joe Wright as ttDetective Keene. The roles in ttSmokescreen were very difficult to portray and therefore too much cannot be said in praise of the performances given. DO YOUR WORST s A FOIL for the serious drama, our second presentation was ttDo Your Worst? Creditable performances were given by the newcomers Link, Mittendorf, Horsley, Holocher, and the veteran Francis Sollazoo. This hilarious comedy was received with a riot of laughter. The HFootlighters showed their spirit of cooperation when they curtailed their schedule of productions to help the combined Night School Glee Clubs in producing the ttMikadoP Many prominent parts were played by our Footlighters. Our director, Mr. Burns, was loaned to Mr. Beckett to aid in the direction of the gMikado. THE GHOST STORY PRING was greeted with an appropriate comedy-romance, HThe Ghost 8 Story. The leading roles were ably performed by Francis Sollazzo and George Slaughter. The supporting cast consisted of Ada Seigel, Jane Richards, Edna May Holocher, Bill Mittendorf, Joe Peace, William Kaldy and Joe Horsley.
