And the river set a record In eighteen-eighty-Iour, So every time we mention flood, Some Ancient by the door Would light his pipe and start to drawl, ItWal, back in '84. Well, '84 is beaten now By a river run amuck, A river going crazy, But always going up, A river drunk with power, Sweeping everything before, A river on a rampage Like we've never seen before. An angry swollen river With a swishing, sucking sound. And the Beautiful Ohio Gave us all the run around. In a City plunged in darkness With the faucets running dry, It did no good to worry And it did no good to cry. With the street cars silent giants In the darkness of the barn; And no water for our boilers To keep our buildings warm. In thirst and cold and darkness, We suffered with the rest. And that was Cincinnati, The Queen City of the West! And now with light and power, Oh, boy! it sure is heaven. Did I hear something of a flood? WaI, back in '371, So that will be our slogan, And to the Ancient at the door, We say tnow mind, with great respectt uThe H . . . with '84! Most Reverend John T. McNicholas O.P., S.T.M. Most Reverend Joseph H. Albers D.D., 1CD. REV. FRANCIS I. BREDESTEGE B.S.C., Ph.D., S.T.L., Principal Principal's Word To The Seniors It is with mixed feelings that we bid the Class of '37 Farewell from Elder. On the one hand there is in the heart the pang of separation after four years of CtOSG associations that were more than ordinarily pleasant. On the other hand it is the realization of hopes cherished during those four years in your regard, and the promise of added lustre to be reflected on your Alma Mater by you and your successes as you take your place in the spheres of industry, religion or the professional or civic form. We express our hopes for your success in life, and leave school- life in the past. May you make good that promise, may you show your teachers that their efforts in your behalf have not been in vain, by the constancy with which you hold fast to the ideals presented your embrace, by the fidelity with which you hold high the standard of integrity that has been bequeathed to your care. The secret of a successful and genuinely happy life has been imparted to you by your whole-hearted and sincere teachers, and it is your task only to make use of it when opportunity or temptation present themselves to you. And may we in conclusion ask for a grateful remembrance and a spirit of loyalty to Elder as you go your way. REV. BASIL A. HANEBERG, A.B., Assistant Principal - Mathematics To The Seniors Friendship finds or makes alike. The association of years, whether in storm or calm, cannot but mould friends according to the same pattern. As the hours and days and months are woven into years this silent likening goes on, until the friends are much alike in all their ways. The same hopes, the same ambitions, the same ideals can ott' be found in both. The same should be true of a school and its graduates. For four years your ambition, as well as ELDER'S, has been to fashion yourself after the pattern of the true Catholic gentleman. You understand that for the young and strong work is not only a sotemn duty, but a privilege as well. You have learned to strive not for today alone, but for the future. to do your duty to God, your Church and your country, so that you may realize the great hopes which God has put into your hearts May this ideal be achieved in each of you, so that in Whatever walk of life you may be found, men may say of you: Nihil tetigit quod non ornavit - He hath touched nothing that he hath not enhanced. May the blessing of God be with you always! FACULT Rev. George N. Lamott, AB, Chemistry, Physics Rev Urban R, Koenig, A.B., Religion Rev. Leonard I. VonderBrink, A.B., Religion Rev. William T.

At that time came the first announcement that our fair suburb was to be honored with the establishment of a Catholic High School for boys. Rev. John F. Schoenhott, pastor of St. Lawrence Church, made it known that the Society of Mary would send two of its members to take charge of the new educational institution. Excitement spread rapidly throughout the hill; it gripped young and old, parent and Child alike, and was especially evident in the eager antici- pation visible in the faces of the prospective high school students. Were they not to be the pioneers in a new enterprise? They felt all the enthusiasm of a great adventure. Eider High School was the nzme bestowed on the new institutizn as it took over the old school building on Warsaw Avenue, just opposite the church. Such was its humble beginning. But the germ ot a splendid undertaking was there. Established primarily for boys from St. Lawrence School, Elder never- theless was attracting students from the entire hill and even from St. Anthony Parish in the basin of the City by the time it was a year old. The courses she offered included academic and business subjects. There were no electives; every pupil followed the same curriculum. The new school made rapid progress. The idea spread that the girls, too, ought to have the opportunity of higher education under Catholic auspices. An expansion program was needed to meet this new demand. Elder High moved into a new building on Laclede Avenue, Boys and girls alike crowded the hallowed halls, for it was now a coeducational institution. This expansion came about under the guiding hand of Rev. Louis J. Nau, who had succeeded to the pastorate of St. Lawrence Church on the death of Father Schoenhoft. With that initiative which characterized his entire priestly lite, Father Nau planned yet farther ahead. He was not satisfied to see only a minor portion of the youth of Price Hill reap the fruits of higher education offered in the still- parochial Elder High School. He beheld Visions and dreamed dreams of every Catholic boy and girl continuing his or her education under the guiding hand of religious teachers. A central Catholic high school for the parishes of the Western Hills was his ideal. He worked unceasingly for the fulfillment of that ideal. He instigated the discussion of such a school, and so convincing were his words that ten other pastors joined with him in forming the Elder High School Association. A bond issue was floated to finance the new undertaking. Father Nau was elected to the Presidency of the Board of Directors. A site for the building was purchased. The present day ELDER HIGH SCHOOL was well on the road to realization. W- - .. I 4mm ; 1 50110011110111.1500 r3101 31: LaWen .1 1 Western 111.1111 Was his ideal H0 001111001 1111000010.

Maia: Class History Now that the Seniors are ready to graduate their hearts are filled with two emotion3msorrow and gratitude. The sorrow is natural for any group of young men on leaving the associations Which have meant happiness for them during four years. The gratitude, too, is natural for anyone as deeply indebted as students are to those who have worked for four years building their characters, minds, and bodies. During their term at Elder the Class of '37 was not exceptional, but it was sensible. It's members did not enter high school as the usual timid freshmen, but instead began immediately to make themselves felt in all the activities of the school. Thus unafraid Freshmen gave way to promising Sophomores, who in turn developed into industrious Juniors. Now those Freshmen are repre sented by ninety-three polished and matured Seniors. During their four years the Class of '37 developed intellectually and socially, scholastically and athletically. They have found no problem too intricate, no company too dignified, no assignment too difficult, no opponent too powerful. Though it engaged in forensic discussions, attended social functions, par- ticipated in all sports, and even tried its hand at journalism, the Class of '37 was sensible in that it did not lose the true perspective of high school days. It remembered, what many others have not, that high school is not an end in itself but a preparation for future life. Its members have worked hard that they might prepare themselves for life after June, 1937. The Seniors realize that they cannot rest on their laurels, but must continue to work so that they can advance. They realize that the true test of a high school education comes after they leave high school. At the present time the only return they can make to those Who sacrificed so much for them during the past four years is to express their appreciation. It is their hope, however, that in years to come they will be able to repay their teachers by living according to the ideals held up to them at Elder High School, as befitting Catholic gentlemen. Class Prophecy I HHm, not so long ago does it seem,' said I as I turned the pages of 1937's annual with one known to all his friends as Larry, but to the world as Lawrence Heim, L.L.D. uYes, there, the first picture in the Senior section, that's Bob Bange. I see he's training for next year's Olympics. At this moment from the radio came a very familiar Rose Marie followed by a more familiar voice saying, uTune in again tomorrow at this time and hear that romantic troubador, Ioe Schachleiter, as he sings the songs we all love to hear. Gil Bath announcing. And Bob Bunker, remember him? He's making a new picture With the great Seehere Seehere. Did I tell you I went out to the club the other day and met Shorty Griese there? His golf has improved with time. You know he's been manager of the Upp 61 Attem Department store for some time now. And Stan Keller hasn't been kept in the background. He's been playing the popular amusement spots with OI Overbeok as M. C. and Bill Bigner as half of a star dance team. Walking down the street that evening We met a very familiar sight. There in HPinny Jim's bowting alleys were Bob Koch, Paul Menninger, and Charley Schneider, respectively an auto salesman, a drug store proprietor, and a build- ing contractor, banging away at the pins while sitting back talking to manager Jim Sailer was another individual who on closer observation proved to be Paul Wolter, a physician of worthy note. While occupied with renewing old acquaintances, Charley Greene who by now was making use of his wit on the Dan de Ruff Toupee and Hair Tonic pro- gram with Al Kunnen as assistant tstooge to youl appeared. As we sat talking, loud voices and sounds of Violence interrupted us. We had hardly time to go to the window when in burst George Schuster, breathless and where his hat should have been was a large swelling. To my surprise no one seemed to pay much attention and inquiring wherefore, I learned that his nose for news had not deserted him, this being Only a common occurrence. Some men expressed the opinion that such should have been the conditions when he was at large as the uSnooper. It seemed that radio had taken unto itself many of the men of H'37, for I learned that Pete Oswald, the Delhi Demon, Don Schawann, the crooning guard, and Bill Thompson, the Locker Room Baritone, were per- forming as the HMidshipmen tthey are all at seal. Various occupations had attracted the men since they left the hallowed halls of ELDER. For instance, while traveling through the West one of the men reported that he stopped at a certain TNT Bar Ranch and there found Boeing working as a oowhand while Walt Martin and Glen O'Dell were work- ing as deputies under one Buck McBenny. Another stated that Red O'Connor was official soda jerker at the new Marigold Pharmacy. Conversation changed from subject to subject and finally alighted on base- ball from whence it was learned that Norb Luebbers and Jack Hurst were playing with the Warhead team in the Guncotton League, hoping to make the ttbig time before they trip over their beards. Also it was said that the Doepker, Kruessel, and Schopmeyer Accounting Co. was being kept very busy and Dick Libel was doing well in his scientific dairy farm while another man told that Jerry Kaufhold, Bob Ratterman, A1 Hock, and Bill Miller had joined the Foreign Legion. It came to our minds some time later that men usually do so only to forget. Hautman and Herbers, the noted astronauts were about to attempt a trip to the moon. Their ship was built by the Rothering Laboratories. Bob Rottenberger, who recently returned from studying in Europe, spoke of Ed Biederman who was First Mate with the good ship Hambone and Red Inderhees, now an active pilot with the Atlantic Clipper Line that he helped to establish. Several weil-remembered names were mentioned as being connected with this organization, names such as, Uilrich, Savas, Fehring, Smith, Cook, and Geis. Later on we found glaringiy advertised in lights that Tom Welch had cashed in on his Romeo capabilities and was playing in Shakespeare's im- mortal masterpiece of somewhat the above name. While engrossed in looking over the pictures on the outside of the theater, we noticed two figures, vaguely familiar, coming toward us. They were Myles Beresford, the idol of racing drivers everywhere, and Paul Robben, a wrestler of proven ability. From the conversation that ensued I gleaned that Ben Laseke was hard at work as car- toonist with a popular periodical and Lee Wenstrup has shown well as a travel- ling salesman for the firm Ink 61 Blotter, manufacturers of a combination auto tack, can opener, meat cleaver, hammer, coat hanger, shoe horn, and soup cooler. I further learned that Joe Paluzzi had taken over the coaching reins at one Haymow Teachers' College, hoping to bring that institution into the light as far as the sport of the prolate spheroid is concerned. Here I left the boys and whom should I see Closing his place of business but Jerry Jansing. It seems that working one's way up has its advantages, for he now is the owner of a theater. Filled with memories and thoughts of the past, I finally returned home. Not being able to sleep, I took one of the magazines from the rack and at the bottom of a particularly colorful cover appeared the name, H. Mendel; On the first page was printed, HRobert Conrad, Editor . twill this never cease? And so into the soothing arms of Morpheus only to carry on the ucalvacade 0t '37 in dreamland. The Growth of Catholic Secondary Education on Price Hill While builders were at work on the material Elder, the real spirit of Elder was also being formed. ArFaculty consisting of secular priests, an order of brothers, members of five different orders of Sisterhoods and a complement of laymen on September 5, 1920, mustered their charges for the Founders Class, 1923. The building not being completed, Classes were conducted in spare rooms in old and new St. Lawrence, and in the K. of C Hall, hastily partitioned off for the purpose. A model T Ford hurried professors from one place to another according to the exigencies of the schedule. The cornerstone was blessed and laid and the building finished within the year, so that by the beginning of the second year of its corporate existence, the new Elder seemed ready to go on along the prosaic but noble course marked out for it by its founders. But things were not to continue so for long. As soon as Elder had shown itself a practicable idea and a llgoing concern, the necessity of an extension of its benefits to the entire diocese forced itself on the authorities, and Elder was soon merely the leant of a number of district high schools into which Hamilton County had been theoretically divided, when the late Archbishop Henry Moeller was called to his last reward. The new incumbent of the See, Archbishop John T. McNicholas, modified the original plan by doubling the territory of the districts and assigning separate schools for boys and girls This plan was soon put into realization, and in September, 1927, Elder opened its doors to boys only, but from twentyethree parishes situated in the Western third of the county. The girls from these parishes were similarly provided for in Seton High School, formerly Cedar Grove Academy, directly adjoining Elder's campus. From that time on the Faculty also Changed its character, all the orders leaving with mutual regrets on the part of students and parents, on the one hand, and of the teachers them- selves on the other. For ten years secular priests, assisted by a quota of laymen have provided the teaching in the school. So for fourteen years now, has the original hope of the founders been richly realized in a steady stream of sturdy Catholic youths, eight the first year, and increasing to one hundred and ten in its largest class, who have gone out from Elder's doors into life. w:m L l ! 1' I nartw E bnltrAm L, pznpe H l?

Development of Extra-Curricular Essentials in Catholic Secondary Education on Price Hill Organizations, Clubs, and societies are essential for motivating the growing interests and skills of the student. In the classroom the theoretical knowledge of the various fields of science, religion, art, mathematics, literature and educa- tion in general are presented to the student, but the soundness and the worth of the principles assimilated there can best be appreciated by voluntary mem- bership in a student organization which has for its purpose the practical applica- tion of this theoretical knowledge. Equally important are the social and moral benefits derived from such associations. The various activities of common interest to all the members, bind them together in mutual friendship and stimulate in them the spirit of cooperation. If this latter result were the only advantage to be gained, it alone would justify their existence. No history of Elder would therefore be complete without mention of this phase of extra curriCutar activities. The first principal, Father Grover Schmidt, recognized this need and appointed faculty members to organize the Student Council, Solatec Club, and the Literary Society. In later years. as the number of students increased and other interests developed new organizations were formed. Thus in 1930, the Student Spiritual Council was added to those already existing In the same year the Elder Welfare Association was organized under the direction of Father Peter J. Schmuck who was then the principal. The Dramatic Club, a branch of the Literary Society, was organized in 1933 and proved its worth by presenting in a very masterful way ttThe Seven Keys to Baldpate. 1934 was an eventful year. At the request of Father Francis J. Bredestege who was then principal, the Student Spiritual Council was reorganized and the Elder Mission Unit was established and affiliated with the national organiza- tion of the Catholic Students Mission Crusade. During this same year the first issue of the Elderado Monthly appeared, The publication is now known as HThe Purple Quill. The year 1935 again brought new interests and new needs. Two new student organizations came into beingeThe Emathonian Club and the Vigilance Committee. The present scholastic year saw the formation of the youngest of these student organizations, namely, the Camera Club. Thus has Elder attempted to provide for the students various outlets for their religious, emotional and artistic tendencies. Through these activities the school has made cultured gentlemen of its graduates May they always remain a credit to their school and community.

In the classroom the theoreticel knoMedqe of the various fields of science, religion. art, mathematics, literature and educa- tion in general are presented to the student, but the soundness and the worth of the principles assimilated there cantbest be appreciated by'vdluhtary mem- bership in a student organization which has for its purpose the practical applicau tion of this theoretical knowledge.

Bill Students Spiritual Council Reorganization of the Student Spiritual Council was one of the first activities of the new school year. The enthusiasm shown, at the first meeting gave promise of the Council's greatest year. By means of a bi-weekly bulletin which treats of religious as weii as secular current problems, the Council endeavors to keep in close contact with the student mind. The Council sponsored the annual Novena for Parents at Christmas time. The Christmas Party, having become a tradition at Elder, was held under its guidance alsoA Due to the flood the retreat, the main religious event of the year, usually held after mid-year examinations, was postponed until Holy Week. The annual Theatre Party, by means of which the Council detrays its expenses, again proved to be a real success. In May, the Voca- tional Novena was held under the guidance of the Council. As in the past, the confessional facilities and personnel endeavors were retained. To the religion professors, Fathers Kramer, Koentq, VonderBrink and Cole- man, under whose guiding influence the Council progressed, we give our deepest appreciation and a vote of thanks. Novena for Parents Retreat I. McNair, E. Fornefeld, Rev. Urban R. Koenig tModeratorL P. Welter R. Koch, R. Herturt The Elder Mission Unit In September the Elder Unit of the Catholic Students Mission Crusade was reorganized. Under the guidance of the Moderator, Father Koenig, a member- ship drive was conducted and approximately 500 students were enrolled as active members. The Elder Unit emphasizes the spiritual side of Missionary activities. Thus, Missionary Pledge Cards are distributed at the beginning of each year and every student pledges a number of good works and prayers for the missions. It has been proven by frequent surveys that these pledges are fulfilled. The Elder Unit has the distinction of having six of its former members studying for the Missionary Priesthood. During Lent the Unit sponsored the annual Selt-Denial Fund in all Classes. The sum of $15100 was realized and donated to Father Murphy for use in his Lockland Colored Mission. At all the meetings of the local conference the Elder Unit was well represented. The members did splendid work in disposing of tickets for the annual card party and reception, held at the Hotel Gibscn. May the spirit of sacrifice and zeal for the Missionary cause continue to flourish among our Catholic young men at Elder. Dance Committee Tickets for the Dance E. Biederman, H. Brindley, R.

Its primary purpose has always been the study and appreciation of the more prominent Ecclesiastical prayers, and during the course of the year, many interesting and educational dissertations are prepared by the members on this subject. The HVigilantinus, a paper written entirely in Latin is published for the benefits of the members and all Latin scholars of the schoolt During the course of this year the Solatec Club sponsored a Latin Contest which was opened to all students who include Latin in their course of studies, with the exception of the elementary Classes. Many varied and distinctive prizes were offered to the winnerst Because of the academic prestige, which an organization of this kind lends to any school, it is most certainly to be hoped that the existence of the Sotatec Club may continue in the life of Elder High School.

Under the able direction of their Moderator, Father Haneberg, they have endeavored to uphotd the principles for which the club was originated last year, namely, the memo tion of interest in mathematics. To most high school students mathematics has very little appeal, and it was to counteract this erroneous impression that the Emathonians banded together. It is the ideal of this Club to make every member aware of the vital and interesting aspects of this most practical subject. The Emathonians annually sponsor a Math Contest. Last year it took the form of 6 Mathematical Scrapbook, but this year it was an examination, wherein all the questions were based on some phase of mathematics in daily life. Meetings are held every other Wednesday, and consist of a short business meeting followed by a program devoted to some phase of mathematics. Many interesting talks have been given on such subjects as: The Definition of Mathe- matics, The Many Uses of Mathematics, HTopographical Maps, ttPuzzle Problems, etc. Several meetings were given over to our Moderator Who explained fundamental principles of choice and chance.

Literary Society was composed of Juniors and Seniors, It had as its purpose the encouragement of artistic English, debating and formal discussion. Formal meetings were held every Wednesday afternoon. The following were elected for ottices: Robert Bange, President; Robert Rack, Vice-President; Thomas Huth, Secretary. Father Hochwalt acted as Moderator. At the first meeting, 95 Seniors and Juniors answered the roll-call. A committee was elected whose duty it was to plan a program and provide enter- tainment for the members at the meetings. All meetings were conducted formally under the supervision of the students and the counsel of the Moderator. Many advantages accrue to the student through membership in this society, The fruits of group activity, of student rule within the club and of cultural achievement cannot be over estimated. The large enrollment toretells the success that will come to next year's club. May all Literary Clubs in the future uphold the reputation of 1937.

Donohue Literary Society Uuniori The success of the Literary Society may be attributed to a great extent to the Junior Division. The reason for enrolling Juniors is to provide experienced future leadership in the Society. Although the administration was in control of the Senior Class, the Juniors played a prominent part in the activities pro- meted. To the Literary Society belongs credit for a most successful Oratorical Contest. Winner of the gold medal was a Iunior member, Thomas Huth. The Judges for the Oratoricai finals were Fathers Cart Goeckeler, Edwin Richter, Henry Schaeffer. In accordance with the program of the Society a few small dramas were presented. The success of the Literary Society greatly rested upon such activities as these, for in these endeavors are developed such qualities as make for good leadership and for interest in scholastic endeavor. It is the sincere desire of this year's club members that the future Literary Societies will always uphold the reputation of Elder in this form of scholastic achievement.

The staff hopes that it has achieved these ends in the present volume. It is very difficult to impress upon the casual reader of a book of this type the many hardships which the staff must face to make the annual worth while. Practically the entire year is devoted to its publication. Advertising, sponsorships, subscriptions, editorials and write-ups, together the finding of new ideas and the payment of bills present untold problems to an Annual staff. The staff takes this opportunity to thank Father Kramer, the Faculty Advisor, for his assistance and advice in the publication of this book; to express its appreciation to Father Koenig for his real efforts in its photography section. It is our sincere hope that the Annual of 1937 will tong be remembered as an outstanding effort, in the history of Elder's publication. Designing the Cover Critics at Work Seated: W.

The school paper of 1937 was the most distinct success since Elder inaugurated this activity. HThe Purple Quill as it was named, compromised the essential idea of the preceding Etderado, but in addition had an entirely new program of action. Under the direction of Father Coleman, the HPurple Quill was a feature of extra-curricular activity. The staff positions-editor, assistant editors, sports writers, class reporters, artists, etc, were filled by capable Seniors and Juniors. The actual literary work of the paper was done by this staff, but suggestions and contributions from other students were accepted. The ttSnooper was the first gossip column in an Elder school paper. With the cooperation of the Camera Club the paper was well illustrated with photographs of events and persons prominent in school life. Besides these features the customary description of athletic events plus advance notices of future events appear. uThe Purple Quilljtt under able direction and backed by the entire student body, fulfilled its duty to the school. Succeeding students will continue to take an active interest in this activity, so that Elder will be proud to acknowledge HThe Purple Quill as its school paper. The Editors at Work Paper Boys! Rev.

Nieman Camera Club Many interesting and amusing events take place at a high school during the course of the year. Quite a number Of these are worthy of being photoe graphed for the purpose of remembrance and use in school publications, For this reason the Camera Club of Elder High School was organized. Under the guiding hand of Father Koenig, who excels in this type of work, the Camera Club achieved true success during the present year. Its real origin lies in the new-bom interest in photography of last year but the credit of complete organization must be ascribed to the present. The members have taken pictures of the various activities and sporting events since Septemberi However, the Club endeavors to train its members not only in the actual photo- graphing but also in superior developing and printing of pictures. It maintains its own equipment and Hdark room, where after school hours much is accom- plished in this work. The snaps and action pictures in this year's Annual, which help much toward completing the book, were taken and developed by the members of the Club. Too much credit cannot be given to these Willing workers for their splendid cooperation in the production of a picturesque Annual. Our Dark Room Developers at Work I. Huser, W. Monnig, T. Taggert, I. Leverone, C. Kreuter, E. Weigel, R. Rack, L. Schneider Dramatic Club One of the annual activities of Elder is the presentation of a play by the Dramatic Club. This organization, under the direction of Father Hochwalt, functioned actively during the scholastic year. All students of the Tumor and Senior Class were encouraged to join its ranks. The Elder Dramatic Players concluded a fine season with a very successful performance of Captain Applejack. The value and success of revived interest in dramatics at Elder was clearly presented by the talent and the success of this play of 1937. HCaptain Appleiack, a New York success of 1921 is a three act Arabian Night Adventure. The acts are titled: HThe Adventure, The Dream and The Romance. It was truly a student production Students provided the properties directed the sound and light effects, undertook the publicity campaign and ticket selling. The entire cast consisted of new discoveries, who capably proved that Elder has dramatic ability. The following boys appeared in the above performance: Edward Weigel, Leland Schneider, Joseph Huser, Robert Rack, Thomas Taggert, Raymond E11, Clifford Kreuter, John Leverone, Ralph Meyer, Joseph Schachleiter, William Monnig, Robert Conrad, Eugene Fornefeld, Jerome Lansing, Walter Martin, Joseph Paluzzi, Howard Rothring, George Schuster, William Thompson, Paul Welter and Bernard Laseke.

Welch Vigilantes The Vigilantes is a comparatively new organization at Elder High School. Formed in 1935, this organization is made up of Seniors only, whose application for membership must be sanctioned by the office. Its original purpose was to promote order at all athletic events. Since then, however, its field of activities has been widened. During the past year much enthusiasm was shown by the members in their work. They had charge of the ticket selling and ticket taking at all home events and some of them were chosen to represent Elder at other fields. Praise should be given where it is due, and thus we salute those boys, who no matter what the weather happened to be, kept order among the spectators, sometimes a distasteful bit of work, The Vigilantes were also active in taking charge of the cafeteria. Their response .to the many other calls for assistance in school activities is to be highly commended.

Made up usually of boys who are inclined toward music, its performances call for a willingness to make sacrifices, not required in most other activities. Free time must be devoted to practice in order that a creditable showing might be made. Drills and rehearsals for appearances at games are held during noon recess. Usually the Band occupies an obscure position while an athletic contest is being played ahd in order to occupy this place the members must always be the first upon the scene and the last to leave. Elder has always tried to treat its Band members however, with a high degree of fairness and respect. In return for their work proper transportation has always been provided them to and from games even outside the city. Con- sideration has been always shown to them at their public appearances and their every effort, successful or not, has always been applauded. They are guests of honor at the Athletic Banquet. Under the most capable direction of Mr. August Jung, quite a number of students talented and otherwise, have been developed into good Band mem- bers.

We understand too that, in consequence of a number of dances and card parties and a play by volunteer talent, there is now a considerable nest-egg which Will be watched and guarded until it has attained full maturity, when it will be given outright to the school authoritiesithe price of a new and complete qum, For these reasons we feel it a privilege to be able to accord the Welfare Association a page in our Annual, and to bespeak for it the interest and support of our parents, and friends, and the active participation of all former Elder students.

The Place of Athletics in Catholic Secondary Education on Price Hill It is an established fact that Athletics has become an integral part of secon- dary education. Equipped with mind and body, the youth must be directed in the proper care and development of both. In some instances too great stress has been placed upon athletics; in others it has been relegated to such a minor position that it is of no advantage whatsoever, to the high school students. It is the task of a well-established educational institution so to regulate and control athletics, that While it never interters with the scholastic life of the student or becomes the paramount object of his education, it nevertheless produces the results for Which it is intended. Elder High School' has always endeavored to maintain the proper medium. She encourages physical development of the boy by an established program of gym classes and inter-rnural athletics. By instilling a competitive spirit among the classes, she hopes to develop an attitude of friendly rivalry and create in the mind of her students the will to succeed. All students are included in this program and yet at no time is there any interference with class work. As is the custom at the present time in ail high schools, Elder is represented in competitive scholastic sports by her school teams. Less the angle of athtetics should be emphasized unduly, a strict list of rules for eligibility is followed-e yes, perhaps more earnestly than at many institutions. Elder's eligibility list is always small by comparison and by far the majority of team representatives may be found in the higher brackets of scholastic attainments. Elder's teams, while properly equipped at all times, are never equipped expensively, thus keeping before the mind of the, athlete the secondary place in which sports belong. Elder's following is small but mighty, due to the fact that many of her students are engaged in work during their tree hours, Yet despite all these factors, Elders has produced many winning teams. Surety what ever success in Athletics has come to Elder may be traced to the fine spirit of trying to do everything well, that has been instilled into the hearts of her youth in their scholastic and spiritual endeavors.

Hilvert Reserve Coacht Athletic Association A note-worthy department of Elder High School, contributing much toward the development of fair play and a sense of true values among the student body, is the Athletic Association. Sponsoring and encouraging athletics, it functions with an ever-Watchtut eye so that athletics be not stressed to the detriment of academic interest. The difficulty of combining sports and studies is worked out to a fine point by the Association. Every participant in reserve or varsity sports must be eligible. The eligibility rules are such as becomes a school of high scholastic standing. By means of pep meetings periodicalty held the Association endeavors to create school spirit along with a refinement of character befitting the gentle- man athlete. The results of this year speak for themselves. An inter-mural sports league has been established in order to give those who fail to make the reserve and varsity teams an opportunity to participate in athletics. This program developed a friendly and competitive spirit between Class and students, eliminating from Elder any show of provincialism. The Association has done excellent work. May it long continue an active department of Elder High Schoot. Shappelte, Friedman, McNamee, Morgan, StengelL Sullivan Bottom Row: R. Hater, M. Murray, C, Finnerty, R. Gan, F. Meyer, H1 Strassell R.
