. v . THE BUZZER 1927 A Sophomore Class Prophecy Ten years have passed since we were Sophomores. Let us see what hand Fate has played in the lives of our classmates. To do this we shall have to do some traveling, so prepare for an aeroplane trip. B-r-r-r-r-r-r-r-! We're off! Having always had a soft spot in our hearts for our old Alma Mater, let us away to old Euclid. How everything has changed since the good old days of 1929. We are anxious to see if any of our old teachers are at Euclid. But no, who is this tall young man? Can it be? No! Yes, it is john Widmer, our old school mate. He is present principal at Euclid, a final successor of Mr. Sharrock. How every young truant shrinks at his withering glance of disapproval. Another surprise is due for here comes an important young woman whom Mr. Widmer introduces as, Euclid's most promising Geom. teacher . It is Gertrude Duber! Time goes quickly. We are now on our way to Hollywood. Entering one of the largest studios in the city we find to our surprise a person who from the distance looks strangely familiar. We go out onto the lot where the pictures are made. There is Elmer Springer fixing up the scenes, while William Pennington is yelling madly through a megaphone at the stars, Helen Lake and Lenard Sadosky. Helen has achieved wonderful success on the silver screen. We leave the studio, and as we walk out onto the street we just must have a newspaper. To our surprise we find in big headline letters across the page: WORLD'S CHAMPION GUM-CHEWER-CLAIR EMINGERY' We smile a dry little smile. Nothing less expected, for in the old days at Euclid Clair was continually practicing. We might have guessed his underlying ambition. The teachers might have been more lenient with him on that score, had they known his future. Cleveland seems to call us, so we start back to the home town. In a big office in the down town section we see the much renowned cartoonist, Kenneth Spuhler, and his assistant, Julius Krihwan. Now we come to the lecture hall, and whom should we see but a lady of medium stature, light hair, and blue eyes-no other than Frances Murphy. She had given such lengthy current events in History classes, and received so many nineties in English, that we can't dispute her right at the position she has achieved. For a bit of recreation we shall go to the theater. Here at the entrance we find the demure little girl who sells us our tickets, to be Margaret Helberg, another of our former schoolmates. A few minutes later Harry Giles takes our tickets and drops them into a big box. We are ushered to a seat by Dorothy jacquays. Silence -and then the curtain rises, revealing a chorus of singers. Reminds of the choruses in the operettas we used to give back at Euclid. But our attention is attracted and held by this great chorus. A close inspection shows us Roy, Richard, William, Louis and Steve. The women turn out to be Lilian Somnitz, Helen DeLaney, Dorothy Hat- tendorf, and then there are some that we do not recognize. They all have wonderful voices! ' Our time for looking up old schoolmates is almost over now. It is evening. We stop at a lovely duplex on the Heights where we find our Sophomore class presi- dent, Charles Wanstall, quietly living with that petite freshman Posie Fouts. We also find that Marcia has married Gorham Hester. These two almost drove us to distrac- tion. And now we think we have done enough traveling for one day. As we lie on our pillows we give a sigh of relief and hope that the next live or ten years will see our old Euclid friends prospering, and doing just as well, if not better, than they are now. Beware, Father Timeg don't turn the hands of Fate on the clock too fast. Ain't Life jest G-R-A-N-D! i131

J uv THE BUZZER 1927 j une fjg Cllass History CLASS OF 1930 Spring 1926. Fifteen blushing freshmen, walked eagerly and happily up the steps at Euclid High School. joy was soon turned to mourning, however, when we learned that our home room was to be in the annex. Disgruntled and disillusioned, we walked slowly down the steps thitherward. So this was High School! The days passed. Quietly, un- obtrusively, without even the threat of an initiation to worry us, we began to find our places in the life of the school. We joined with the 9 A's in giving a party, and helped in the Buzzer benefit program. Fall 1926. A new division of freshmen arrived-twenty-three of them. Proudly they established themselves in Room 12. tLucky peoplej A glorious initiation followed for everyone. Shoelc-ss boys, and grotesquely painted girls trudged the hallways. We who had been in school a whole half year resented somewhat having to organize with these new folks instead of with the class we had been in in the springg but in the busy whirl of choosing officers, collecting dues and deciding upon a party, all that was forgotten. Now we really like each other. Spring 1927. The new semester has brought more changes. No longer are we in two home-rooms, many steps apart. After much hard work our party is a thing of the past, but according to all reports it was a glorious success. Our assembly program A Maiden Vain of Dress went off without a break. Soon we will all be upper classmen and sitting on top of the world. E151 R
