The dear old class of '22 Ne'er more shall school attend The years too few, The associations, too, Have long since come to an end. Our paths have parted Our fortunes made, Some have prospered Others have bills unpaid. They tell me Fat Cronenwett has bought, An airplane of sturdy construction Because you see if it should break, He'd meet with instant destruction, Wanda Cole, according to tradition, Has kept her ways so silent For she has accepted a Matron's position In a deaf and dumb asylum, With banners proudly Hying, Faber's circus came to towng Bob Gugler was the midget Walter Snyder was a clown. Harry Strippy was the lion tamer, Iron hearted and stern of face, While Red Castle as the ring-master The horses around did chase. Our old beloved Doc Cleland In his father's footsteps has tread ln which vocation you all know It is necessary to use your head. Yula Harding renown has gained As an artist with brush so neat, While Isabel Amann her illustrious model Was recently overcome with the heat. There was a terrible accident An auto over Clinton Kehrer did ride. His condition is much improved With Miss Cochran the nurse at his side. Two old time friends one day did meet And now are happily wed: They live on a corner of High Brow street, They are-Lucy and our old friend Ed. Scandal 1942. Nelle Lepper is nationally famous As a designer of the hat and gown, While Bob Smith, her efficient salesman Travels from town to town. Wilma Haskins a writer will be For magazines, papers, and books, Her name in Who's Who you'll see Mentioned for work and for looks. Ted Poister is a pianist In a cheap cabaret Where Betty Bloomer Dances night and day. Mervin Christman, skillful and accomplished Is Tiddle-de-winks champion of the Western Hemisphere While Miriam Nichols, his lovely wife ls a bright star in the social sphere. Wisler KL Trautman is the sign we see Across the front of a business blockg It seems as tho the boys have bought A grocery, with neatly arranged stock. Edna Ploss our old classmate Is a star for Universal, Ora Tracht as her leading' man Is a popular matinee idol. Thelma Gelsanliter, so they say Wants to be a tutor, Much to the chagrin and disgust Of Melvin Nichols, her suitor. Harold and Boyd as their name implies Have bought a mill and are Millers In partnership with Arthur Evans Our far famed lady-killer. John Wisterman has patented A new invention of his, A collapsible wash tub, they tell me Which is also used for a sieve. Fortune, so it seems, has never smiled On those unhappy mates, For Dykey has just been granted a divorce From his good wife Clarice Bates. Into a restaurant one day we stepped To get a bite to eatg Our old friend Booty the hash-slinger Showed us to our seat. Bud Eise became an astronomer And used to study the stars But he has not been heard from Since he attempted a trip to Mars.

Q - ' ii- uerii im gls Senior Class History. What pen can depict the noble deeds and glorious achievements of the immortal class of 1922? This is but a weak attempt of mine to perform that difficult task, However, I will at least try to relate a portion of our history. One beautiful morning' in September of 1918 there was a mighty rustle and buzz of excitement heard all over the chapel of the old High School when the illustri- ous class of '22, one hundred strong, entered. It is msec'- less to say that the upper classmen were overcome with admiration at our brave bearing. They had expected to see green little Freshies timidly enter the chapel, very much scared, Amid a burst of applause at our extreme hravery, which raised our courage we managed to rind our seats somehow. Thus starts the history of the Class of '22. in our Freshman year we did many things worthy of praise. First of all, we chose excellent class officers. Also we chose red and black as our class colors, and these colors we have always held high. Many of the boys in the class are athletes, and in their Freshman year, they made an enviable showing. During this year we were also well represented in music, tive of the instru- ments in the H. S. orchestra having been played by Freshman boys, Theodore Poister became High School Pianist, and we claim this is an honor to any class. The next year we came back determined to do even greater and bigger things than the year previous, and we did it, This year Mackey, Wisterman and Schreck played on the regular team in football, and Mackey made the Varsity in basketball. Moreover, we subscribed more than any other class to United War Work. Our Junior year was even more successful than the other two. As time went on the class became better and better. This year several of the best athletes on the football, basketball and track teams were Juniors, Besides this, the Varsity Cheerleader, Edwin Wiener, was picked from this class. We also played a prominent part in the rendition of the Creation , as we also did in the Dramatic club. The Junior-Senior Reception was one that will not soon be forgotten, as it was the most elaborate affair ever heard of in the annals of G. H. S. history. We have had many social gatherings which we can- not easily forget. Among these were wiener roasts, sleigh- ing parties, I-Iallowe'en parties, etc. This, our last year, has been one of many happen- ings and much happiness. Sorrowfully we realize as each day passes, that we are just one day nearer the goal which we have been struggling to reach for the last four years. We look back upon our happy Freshman days to the present and wonder if there has ever been such a happy, care-free class. Truly there has nevei been one that has equaled our powers of concentration, our ability to study and capacity for learning. Now that you have read a part of our history, per- haps you will have some little idea as to our achieve- ments. You can surely realize how much the under-class- men will lose by our departure, how sad the faculty will feel after the final realization is thrust upon them that we will not be there next year. Nineteen twenty-two stands sixty-six strong, ever ready to help Galion High and the old Alma Mater knows that her present class will strive to do her honor. --EDWIN D. WIENER '22.
