'F q 1 .N D h af'--' ff , N.,-it sz- - m K foreword First year occupancy in a modern, spacious new building! This is a chal- lenge to anyone, but especially to a group of teenagers occupying a new three-million dollar high school. It is a challenge for many reasons, but one of the big reasons is the newness and difference of the new school contrasted with the Old Harding High. No one will forget the crowded conditions, long noon hours and the disputes between the Herald and Quiver staffs in the dingy corridor by room 17. There were the times when East Hall couldn't hear the announcements and sometimes the boilers would break down to give us an unexpected vacation. Things have been different this year. Students have possessed a desire to keep the building in the same condition as they found it. All 1,054 of us were thrilled September 8, when we entered the building, for the first time as a group, to start the school year 1953-54. The lunchroom was a new experience for many of us, and the Juniors and Seniors were amazed at the space in the halls and classrooms, and each student was given a locker of his own. Curriculum has changed too, and many new courses are being offered to the students. Behind the scenes the picture has changed, too. This year's QUIVER is a radical departure from the last ten years annuals at Harding. The first change your QUIVER staff made helped to make your '54 QUIVER the newest, most modern book Harding High School has seen. We changed our printing process from letterpress to lithography, enabling us to design the new shape Senior panels and mod- ern style page layouts. The black and white cover follows the modern trend. To show the floor plan of the new school the cover features a re- cessed outline ofthe school. Photographic end leaves, showing the school from the air, score another first in Quiver history. A spring supplement has never been used at Harding, so your Quiver staff is trying it this year. Now that you have read about some of the innovations in the '54 Quiver, go ahead, read it, and enioy it to the fullest. lt's your school as the gang in Room 207 has observed it this year, and with the cooperation of you and many of the community, presented it. forward COl1l'eI1I'S Acnvmssz Music Dra t Publication Organiz t' CLASSES: Honors Seniors Ju Sophomores ATHLETICS: Football Basketball Other Sports Intramurals COMMUNITY I.IFE: Advertising Snapshots More to co Make a model before thou buildest is an old proverb that really expresses the preparation that went into the planning for Marion Harding High School, the most modern, new high school of its size in the state of Ohio. When in 1942 Gerald lrons of the School Housing Commission made a survey of the Marion Schools, the necessity for added facilities became apparent, and the first step was taken forthe fulfillment of dreams that had been in the minds of educators and public spirited citizens for years. Harding was part of a general con- struction plan that included a new iunior high school, the remodeling of two others, and additions to elementary buildings. The purchase of the Indian Mounds made additional space available for this plant that covers some forty acres. We all love a parade when it is for a lofty purpose and a strike that serves to instill good will for a cause. Such demonstrations as you see pictured helped to pass two much needed bond issues. Money so realized, in addition to that which came from the sale of Old Central, the one time high school, was placed on interest. The planning of special sections of the building was accomplished with the patient ef- forts of Mr. A. C. May, then Principal of Harding, and Mr. Cecil Gabler, his able successor, in endless consultation with faculty members who best knew what would make for most effective labs and classroom spaces. Special features include the Health Center, Biology Green House, Foundry and Woodworking in the Industrial Arts, separate laborato- ries for each science department, Homemaking Unit, Machine and Auto Shops, modern Art room, multilevel Music room, radio facilities with WMRN, publications offices, and an electrical kitchen to mention only a few. Ground was broken November 16, 1951 in a public ceremony, the first shovel of dirt being lifted appropriately by Supt. Lester L. Dickey who along with farsighted Board of Education members kept constant check upon construction. It was the source of community pride to watch the rapid building of this modern structure for it was actually com- pleted, after getting under way December 3, 1951, on June 30, 1953. Landscaping men continued to get plenty of suntan as they worked throughout the heat of the summer. X5c , ix' , 'QN5 -. ' 5, Y sung v.

This task was ably handled by Mr. E. Paul Huffman, Business Manager of the City Schools and Clerk ofthe Board of Education. Among the many tasks were handling the funds, checking building standards, and making sure the best equip- ment was placed in the finished building. Mr. Huffman did all these things and many more to give Marion's taxpayers a sound, sturdily constructed building. 5 ,. 7,7 -, ' '- lf. Y: 1 5 I : - :gli vcr' . l . T F' 44.1 p .

Some came when invited, most came with- out warning. No matter when the curious and in- terested came, each found a hearty welcome await- ing him at the Open House held the week of August 24, 1953. Harding's Student Council played official host assisted by the many students who volunteered to learn their way around so they could find any who became lost in the corridors of Marion's newest building. The usual inquiry was, Where am l, please? It was puzzling to come in by one of the four entrances and know just which direction to turn, for, as we have learned, the plan resembles a hollow square, the north and west sides of the square comprising the two-story academic or class- room wings. All the laboratory and vocational cle- partments are in the south wing of the structure. Many people sat down to rest and look over the brochures which were given each visitor as he en- tered, forthe evenings and afternoons were warm, in fact the heat of excitement, coupled with the c-Q, weather, discouraged many a the complete tour, which- took The administrative offices, to the building made one a flower show, for friends of generous with their best tions. lt was unfortunate camera not have been in action, at night for colors of flowers and walls Marion Service Club Y-Men's Clubs held luncheons during this week ia the school lunch room and were favorably impres- sed with not only facilities, but food. Another opportunity to visit the building for a day and a night was given March 19 when the second Open House gave patrons of our school an opportunity to come to see how gratefully we are using their educational gift to us. Kiwanis, Lions, Exchange, Altrusa, fUl'3'lj, On August 28, 1953, Dr. Louis Morrill, a Marion High School graduate now President of the University of Minnesota, dedicated our ultra-modern, nearly three million dollar high school to The Fitness of Mind and Body of All Our Youth. The program opened with the singing of the National Anthem, led by Mr. L. G. Jones and the invocation, given by Rev. L. Harrison Ludwig. Marion Harding's band furnished music for the nearly a thou- sand assembled to witness this climax of an eight year crusade for a new school. and dedicated Following the dedicatory address, Mr. Cecil Gabler voiced appreciation and accepted, for the school, the following gifts, as presented by individuals, local service clubs, and manufacturers. Bibles, Marion Gideons, thirty-six room flags, Bird Mc Ginnis Post, two flags for pole, G.l. Post No. 584, auditorium flag, Women's Relief Corps No. 194, school flag, tape recorder, record player, film, slide pro- iector, picture for study hall, Class 1953, six library books, Auxiliary No. 162 of Bird Mc Ginnis Post, foundry unit, Alloy Steel, Freedom Shrine Documents, Exchange Club, two score boards, National City Bank, Voca- tional Guidance File, Kiwanis Club, Electric eye testing device, Lion's Club, two ping- pong tables, Class 1951. Mr. Robert Reese, representative of the architectural firm of McLaughlin and Keil, is presenting the key to Mr. Rodney Cox, President of the Board of Education. Look- ing on are other members, Dr. Daniel Brick- ley Jr., Mr. Charles Harmon, Mr. Frank Robinson, Mr. C. E. Knowlton, General Con- tractor, and Mr. E. Paul Bachman. S the guiding hand Health, Education, and Welfare, could well be the title of the people shown in this picture. Mrs. Lois Ansley, School Nurse, visits all schools and checks continuously on contagious diseases. She also arranges the pre-school clinics. Dr. Allen Schmuller, School Psychologist, administers tests and evaluates them with the pupil, teachers, and parents. He also tests pupils who are candi- dates for special classes. The Speech and Hearing Specialist, Karl Ailing, screens stu- dents for defects and then administers cor- rections. The managing of a school system requires many men and much time. ln Marion there are three men who handle much of this work. Mr. Lester Dickey, Superintendent, helps administer the Board of Education's policies with the help of all other personnel. Order- ing of instructional supplies and co-ordina- tion of curriculum are handled by Mr. Harold Edwards, Director of Instruction. Mr. Joseph Whisler, Director of Pupil Personnel investi- gates severe non-attendance cases and serves as the contact man between the school and Juvenile Court. X I As either of these two men could tell you, there are one-thousand and one problems in the administration of a large high-school. Mr. Cecil Gabler, Principal, as administra- tive head of the school, determines policy and makes those necessary split second cle- cisions to help the school run smoothly. He also counsels parents, teachers and students, when problems arise. Mr. Darl Gatchell helps students solve their problems, choose their colleges, and keep their attendance records straight. Along with his duties as Dean of Boys and Assistant Principal, Mr. Gatchell is head adviser of the Student Council. .LP 1.1 .V-in ...,f.V,. Agri L' 3-,:,..,.

New surroundings and new responsibilities face Miss Elizabeth Pace, General Office Secretary and Secretary to Mr. Gabler. She is often the personage who greets the visitor in the halls of Harding and she is faced with many difficult-to-answer questions. The office work is lightened by Mrs. Isabelle Barkley, Office Assistant and Secretary to the Vocational Department. Along with these posts, she is Secretary to Mr. Gatchell, textbook accountant, and dispenser of lunchroom tickets. General office work is handled by Miss Pat Titus, graduate of '53 and office assistant. Her work includes filing, typing, and mimeographing stencils. Miss Kay Leffler, a senior this year, works in the office in the P.M., as a part of her Vocational Course training. ELEVEN rj my nf 'i Thomas D. Bain Mark H. Baker Elvin Beach Melvin Bernow Edith L.

FIFTEEN .... .....---' 51 . -' A, -. 1 ' 4..- Every Harding student has the opportunity to parti- cipate in any one of many extra-curricular activities. We have activities to please every taste. The music- lover can participate in Band, Orchestra, Harding Choir, Junior Choir, or one of the many ensembles. Prospective dramatists can ioin Props and Q's, or participate in either the Junior or Senior Plays. Stu- dents are given the opportunity to learn leadership through election to home-room offices. Vocational students have their own organizations in which they put to work the lessons they learn in class. All activi- ties serve many purposes. They help a student to release pent-up energy, teach many practical experi- ences, and most important, they give the student res- ponsibilities which must be met. r . 1 J. Strelitz, L. Wingett, J.

EIGHTEEN orchestra 'Tis eight o'clock in the morning when Orchestra members report for rehearsal Monday, Wednesday, and Friday of each school week under the direction of Conductor Homer Huffman. The music room in ways resem- bles one where a Phil-Harmonic Orchestra might assemble. However, the position where a photographer might stand to get the full view into a picture was omitted in the architectural plan, but that is of little importance for we have all been in and around, and know how musical efforts expended here count for pleasures. The Ensembles, string and wood winds, give members an opportunity to develop musical poise by partici- pating in small groups. These groups are on call for club programs and members participated in district and state meets. Officers of the Parents' Association which played host to these musicians along with Band members at the annual banquet January 25, were Mrs. Clifford lrey, president, Mrs. Dale Gorman, first vice-president, Mrs. T. W. Jenkins, second vice-president, Mrs. Clarence Meister, secretary, Mr. Herman Greenbaum, treasurer, Mr. Carl Fogle, chairman ways and means committee, and Mrs. Clifford Ward, chairman of the social committee. Over the Rainbow from the Wizard of Oz was an appropriate number with which to conclude the Orches- tra portion of the Pop Concert given with the Band February 28 at three o'clock in the Harding Auditorium. Truthfully the stage on which this fine group could assemble is actually almost like finding a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow when we recall how long these youthful musicians practiced under the trying conditions of the old Harding gym. At the spring concert May 4, the orchestra portion included ft classical and semi-classical numbers. Eight hopeful Hardingites attended the District Orchestra meet January 16 in Findlay. Julia Gorman and Ted Pollock took honors and were chosen to represent Harding at the All State Orchestra Meet in Columbus February 22. This occa- sion on the Ohio State Campus brought together many select young musicians from a number of high schools. With the first signs of spring the orchestra began the practicing of the familiar Pomp and Circumstance, a pleas- ant to hear must at every Harding graduation exercise. The outdoor seating for the impressive occasion lent dignity to the music played with real feeling on the part of grads and underclassmen. Keeping this group in tune this year have been Ted Pollock, president, Carol Bachman, secretary, and Paul Foster, librarian and student director. band Music arose from its voluptuous swell so said the poet Lord Byron and so say many Marionites as they pleasantly recall the musical Band year at Harding. ln endeavoring to have Prac- tice make perfect members under the capable direction of Mr. Homer Huffman and Assistant Director George Lane began their musical exercising August lO on the black top at the rear of the building. Once the school year gets under way and throughout the summer season seldom do notes die away until it is time for another parade or an appearance at some civic function. But it is really at gridiron performances that we get the biggest thrill, for band music certainly does add pep and color to athletic contests day or night. How can one help but raise his voice in joyous acclaim of our Alma Mater when the Band plays with such enthusiasm? With the arrangement of our new school song done especially for the instruments by our Assistant director, an added feeling of pride is with us each time we hear the now familiar tune. Half time performances with well worked out formations thrilled many a gridiron spectator. Mental pictures of Drum Maior Leslie Irey and Maiorettes Nancy Hammond, Edie McWherter, Rosemary Roddy, and Mickie Umbaugh, are indelible. This year on a clear moonlight night we could look over for a few brief moments at time outs and see especially the auditorium gymnasium wing of our pride and ioy, Our Marion Harding, for it is only approximately two hundred feet from the stadium. January 25 was a red letter day on the social calendar for once again the Band and Orchestra Parent's As- sociation played host to our musicians. The banquet was held in the Lunchroom and awards were presented in the form of pins or letters to those members who had completed five semesters of musical participation. Mr. and Mrs. Clifford Irey awarded a Drum Major trophy to their son Les, and Maiorette trophies to the four Ma- iorettes. ln succeeding years they wish to present such trophies as their gift to those who have so participated for three years. October 3 the Benefit Football game was played in behalf of the Band, March 20 the Brass Ensemble en- tered the District Contest at Tiffin, April 2 Harding proudly played host to the Bands from the five Buckeye League schools in the annual Festival, and May 7 the Parent Organization stage its annual Tag Day to finish the indebtedness on the fine uniforms we admire when we see a parade. Officials at the helm this year were Jerry Emery, president, Carol Keck, secretary, Paul Foster, librarian, and Ted Pollock, student director, who led the Pep Band at all the Basketball home games, and a gay crowd they Wefe TOO. lst row: R.

Pollock. harding choir 'Tis a sure sign work goes on merrily, when folks sing at it. Third period every day seventy-six iuniors and seniors take this literally and seriously. As they really work under the capable direction of Mr. L. G. Jones they feel musical accomplishment that makes them take a back seat to none. In the beautiful music room with the accompaniment played upon the grand piano by Carolyn Jones and Sally Schneider, a wide variety of arrangements which include sacred and secular numbers, along with novelty tunes, are perfected. Individual practice rooms are used often for vocalizing, and when the familiar maroon robes with the white stoles are not in use they are stored in the robe room. On Christmas night a recording made by our choir through the courtesy of the Marion Power Shovel was played on WMRN. Other activities included caroling the student body at Christmas time, appearing at local churches and civic clubs, an as- sembly with the Junior Choir, and the annual concert standing on our , -fix own risers in our beautiful auditorium. The Buckeye League Festival in April at Findlay proved an excellent opportunity to make new friends, hear others sing, and come home with new ideas of choir accomplish- ments gained from participation in the mass choir of some four hundred voices. For the Lion's Club District Convention March 14 at Hotel Hard- ing the group sang both sacred tunes and novelty numbers. On March 28 in the new Y.M.C.A. these melody makers entertained the Exchange Club members at their State Convention. Mr. George Lane worked out the four part harmony of our new Alma Mater and the Choir was privi- leged to introduce it to the student body when its approval was sought. Jeanne Bibbee and Delores Cosey have been the soloists and the four songsters carrying out official responsibilities have been Murray Leeper, Karen Syster, Paul Foster and Carolyn Jones. l l twsun -w iunior choir Each day at the seventh period Harding iuniors and sopho- mores practice zealously under the direction of Mr. L. G. Jones hoping to attain singing ability that will match that of their big sister, the Harding Choir. In the new tiered music room con- ditions are ideal for reaching low D or high C. These hundred twenty-six students are privileged each year to be a part of the carolling through the spacious corridors at Christ- . 1 . . . DOUBLE MIXED QUARTETTE mas time and to lift their voices tn harmony at the annual choir assembly in the merry month of May. ,,rT,. The Double Mixed Quartette and the Girls Ensemble are extra features from the Harding Choir that entertain many a Ma- rionite in groups large and small. Each Tuesday and Thursday these musical groups rehearse with Mr. Jones coming in to see that all are keeping in tune. Among the Quartette's engage- ments were World Day of Prayer and the Good Friday Union Services, while the Ensemble accepted invitations mostly from P.T.A.'s and women's clubs.

There are five different tours from which the future industrialists can choose. Enthusiastically, we reached our first destination at 8:30, to explore what, to most of us, is the recesses of the unknown. By eleven-thirty, after much exercise of mind, eyes, and legs, appetites were whetted for the deli- cious luncheon served us in the new Y.M.C.A. by our hosts for the day, members of the Manufacturers Council of the Marion Chamber of Commerce. Local plants that staged openhouse for the day and gave green lights for employees to answer the most naive questions of students were the Quaker Oats, Motor Products Corporation, Berlou Manufac- turing Company, B. F. Goodrich, Ohio Edison Power Plant, Marion Power Shovel, American Malleable, lsaly Dairy, Fairfield Engineering, Huber Manufacturing, General Telephone Company, General Exca- vator, Commercial Steel Castings, Arro Expansion Bolt, Alloy Cast Steel Company, McMillan Feed Mills, and the Osgood Company. ill l . ,snug L- - - homemaking ,L-fm Flower arrangements are made ticed in this up-to-date three in one room apartment, known as the Home-Making unit.

Meetings, conducted regularly by Presi- dent Ted Pollock, were held once a month during regular class periods. At this time Spanish games, plays, songs and customs of our Latin-American neighbors were used to demonstrate the colorful language. Mrs. Oliphant is shown dancing the Mexican Hat Dance during a class period. A Spanish newspaper, La Linterna, also provided enjoyment in the form of stories, contests, and crossword puzzles. Officers for 1953-54 were Ted Pollock, presidante, Jim Ziegler, vice presidante, Joan Neidhart, secretaria, and John Sawyer, tesorero.

These words were heard once every three weeks by members of the French Club as la Presidente Carol Bachman called the meeting to order. The club, composed of all French ll stu- dents and Mlle.

Outstanding among these were the Thanksgiving and Christmas programs. A French newspaper, La Jeunes- se, was used to study the French people and their interesting customs. Other officers were le Sous Presidente, Allen Green, le Secretaire, Barbara Thayer, le Tresorier, Carl Echols, and le Reportier, Marlene Swearingen. l lst row: M. Weinbaum, S. Yazel, J.

Activity around Harding was promoted by the lnter-Club council which is comprised of the advisers and representatives from each club. Six members had a laboratory ex- perience in practical politics, 'first at Toledo University where they were briefed in the operation of Youth and Government, and April 23, 24, and 25 at the Model Legis- lature in Columbus. Harding repre- sentatives were Carol Bachman, Carol Morgan, Jim Kratzer, Bob Knachel, Dick Renn, and Walter Rissler. Also through planning of the Council, the annual pre-Easter serv- ices gave Harding students a deep experience on the true meaning of Easter. On March 28 District 9, of which Marion is a part, held its con- ference at the Y, small group dis- cussions, centered on the theme sophomores and iuniors Miss Turner, Rev. Harrison Ludwig, Mr. Cover, and Mr. O'Rourke, fac- ulty advisers. The over all picture at the Y is in charge of Mr. Art Hass, General Secretary and Vern Miller, Physical Director.

Every other Wednesday this representative group meets in Room 208, to plan programs through which they can direct school activity and give advice, depending as they must upon the cooperation of the Hardingites to give conduct. The Open House and the first day of school went much smoother because of the detailed planning done by the officers, Gib Herr, Hank Rinnert, Rosemary Baxter, and Gary Ballinger. Homecoming festivities and the three Talent Assemblies were highlights in their schedule. The proceeds from the Night of Talent go toward printing a student handbook which will be ready in the fall. An exchange of council members with other schools is an idea in the offing, but the Sunday after- noon Student Forums from WMRN 3-3:30 are a reality. Mr. Harold Edwards is the enthusiast and the personnel is selected by the Harding Council and the three iunior high councils. Advisers are Mrs. Willmeth, Mr. Cover, and Mr. Gatchell. library council Where could a more beautiful setting be found to provide opportunity for Hardingites to stimulate the mind than in our Library which overlooks the patio and Indian Mound where autumn colors run riot? Displays in the library and corridor cases have been of everchanging wonders, the blond furnishings are most attractive and the teachers' reading room equip- ped by Miss Kathryn Moore and her Council, is a source of inspiration and relaxation. Twenty-three girls participated in proiects including the purchasing of a model ship with sales tax stamps and the enlarging of the vertical picture file. Librarians and Home Ec. girls entertained foreign educators, visit- ing from Ohio State, and our faculty at a fall tea. Relax as you refresh the mind might well be a greeting to the literary visitor.

These future retailers have an excellent opportunity in their club, a part ot the state and national organization, to gain worthwhile knowledge and still have pleasure. Members work in the afternoon in a store, putting into practice the valuable ideas gained in their academic classrooms in the morning. Worthwhile proiects have kept these students busy throughout the year. They sent candy and magazines to the children at the Marion County Children's Home, they sponsored the January Thaw, an all school dance, the proceeds going to finance the Employer-Employee Banquet, an annual event held in the spring.

Your staff worked until the wee-small hours to produce the '54 Quiver. As you have seen in the book, many new things have been added, and some features from last years book have been improved. Among the many things needed to prepare a yearbook are scheduling pic- tures, taking pictures, and identifying the people in these pictures. Copy must be written to fill the page and it must describe the activities of each organization. The layout must be drawn to scale, pictures cropped, and pages mounted. Along with the editorial work, your staff has business work too. Ads must be sold, booked, and the ad section must be laid out. Books must be sold and records kept of all sales and promises. years activity Sparkling feature was prepared by Shirley Barton and Rosemary Baxter, accounts were kept in the black with the constant care of Louie Thompson, Business Manager, and play by play sports coverage was made in a fine way by interested Sports Editor, Jerry Emery.

Their duties are to conduct home room meetings, appoint home room committees, and manage in- dividual picture accounts for the Quiver. Membership on the Red Cross Coun- cil is the chief duty of home room vice-presidents. This organization sends gift boxes to children in for- eign lands, to show that American boys and girls are thinking of them. A scrapbook showing scenes around Marion usually accompan- ies these boxes, so that these for- eign students can see our country as it is. Miss Marcella Masters is the faculty adviser. Every Tuesday morning the home- room secretaries are kept busy pre- paring the school savings money to send to the National City Bank. These students also write the min- utes of home room meetings and assist the other officers when needed. Balancing books, keeping accounts straight, and selling lunch tickets are several of the home room treas- urers' tasks. These officers also sell tickets for many special functions and help the Herald collect sub- scription money. Miss Pace, Sec., A. Mattison, K. Leffler, L. Larkin, S. Fleming, M. Badell, S. Coffey, M.

Each year a number of girls volunteer to spend a period a day in one of the offices. ln the general office these girls have a number of duties. Among them is sorting of the mail, filing of grade cards, answering the telephone, taking call slips to summon pupils to the office, and running all sorts of errands help to lighten the load for Miss Pace. Attendance records are kept in Mr. Gatchell's of- fice and there the girls type and mimeograph the attendance lists which are taken to class room teach- ers twice a day. Miss Freer has two office girls who aid her in check- ing girl's attendance and keeping records orderly. Constantly these girls seem to enioy pushing on and keeping on the move. -Va' 1 Miss Freer, J.

Q's, Harding dramatic society. Here is a job for not only actors, directors, playwrights but seamstresses, stage designers and builders. Under the leadership of Marv McFann and guided by a newly written constitution, the dramatists had an interesting year. Mr. Presar was the sponsor the first semester and Mr. Goldsberry the second. Activities of the club included the presentation of two plays for the Christmas assembly, December ll, the Dust of the Road under the student director Sharlene Weintraub and Her Christmas Hat, with Sara Meister directing. Each week Props and Q's members took turns at report- ing the news from Harding over WMRN at 4:45 P.M. Jerry Emery was radio chairman for these Harding Reporter programs. Meetings were held the second and fourth Mondays of each month at this time to stimulate membership interest, readings were given by outside visitors, records were played, skits were staged and games were played under the leadership of the program chairman, Connie Bartram. Officers assisting Marv were Dan Keggan, Shirley Hoffman, and Judy Stein. A fx Ref.. , - ,ff 7 ,Y n ld L C iunior presentation: Tryouts, rehearsals, performance-success. When the results of Junior play tryouts were posted, would- be actors scanned the list for their names. Diligent rehearsals began at once on the play, Our Hearts Were Young and Gay. Mr. Presar, Sally Waddell and Kay Montgomery, student directors, and the cast all had butterflies on the opening night but every- thing went smoothly and the play, presented on November 19th and 20th, was acclaimed a success. Members of the cast included, steward, Tom Coss, Mrs. Skinner, Sally Schneider, Cornelia Otis Skin- ner, Judy Street, Otis Skinner, Craig Anderson, Emily Kimbrough, Janet Roberts, purser, Roger Ward, stewardess, Joyce Snyder, Dick Winters, Roger Fogle, Admiral, Melvin Truex, Harriet St. John, Anne Shep- herd, Winifred Blaugh, Ann Larkin, Leo Mc Evoy, Dick Renn, inspector, Shirley Heigle, Therese, Ann Arthur, Madame Elise, Sally Linscott, Monsieur De La Croix, John Barnhart, and window cleaner, Tom Jenkins. our hearts were young and gay A With the most modern facilities available, the Vocational Boys in Machine and Auto Shops have nothing to be desired. Mr. Emil Lisak co-ordinates all activities in this department, and he is assisted by shop teachers Mr. Charles Nichols, Mr. Richard Slack, and Mr. Arthur Moody. The industrial arts department teaches the graphic arts, drafting, woodworking, and foundry. The teachers in this department are Mr. Petrich, Mr. Hoops, and Mr. Winterhoff. Harding's modern art room is a picture of magnificence and convenience. The depart- ment under the direction of Miss Mary Helen Ley, offers a flexible independent study program in the areas of block printing, landscape painting, poster and greeting card designing, and iewelry making.The four classes decorate the art corridor display case. The excellent lighting, the platform for models, the printing press, the kiln and the potter's wheel provide ideal conditions for the student artist whether he is vocationally or avocationally minded. A special Red Cross proiect was the making of some 100 birth- day greeting cards to be mailed to the resi- dents of the Marion County Home. These artists and their instructor are willing to lend their effort to other departments of the school for the promotion of their activities. On Tuesday and Thursday the Art room looks beautiful to the passer-by as he looks at the activity of the adult enthusiasts who are making use of their equipment for the night classes in art and ceramics. it ' 'H i I fl: Under the direction of Mr. Raymond Hoops, the printing classes moved into their new headquarters as a part of the Industrial Art Division. Off the presses roll routine forms for the General Office and the Administra- tion Building and grade cards-an awful task for a student to be asked to perform. These supplies go to city schools and save time and money for the over-all budget. A booklet given to all the parents of first grade students and the name cards for Seniors were two other items of importance. To start a fund for a new offset press, programs were printed and sold at the Sectional Basketball Tournament. During the slack periods, the class designed and worked on individual proiects that permitted them to explore as many of the related graphic art fields as possible. The printing club is composed of the 19 Senior boys who are in the different classes. Their officers are Jerry Lee, president, Doug Bibler, vice-president, Ron Conroy, secre- tary, Joel Williams, treasurer, and Raymond Hoops, head printer. l D. Foos, K. Kirkpatrick, P. Kinkaid, J.

Seniors, Juniors, Sophomores are usually the only things people think of when one mentions classes. But, like a diamond, these classes have many facets in their members. As we inspect these classes we find many different personalities and talents displayed. There are those students who have the ability to lead and direct, but the bulk of our students are willing followers. Some students are athletes and bring their school honor, while most of us iust cheer them on. A few of us get an education, but many are in school for an all-rounding experience. We find the person who is in every activity and his friend who may not take part in any activity. We have musicians, artists, craftsmen, and mechanics. Some are preparing for college, some for a iob, and others are learning a vocation through the vocational course. But when we look at the entire group, we see the nicest, best bunch of kids to ever attend Harding High, either new or old. i 1 class of 54 We Seniors have now come to the con- clusion of our happy, carefree high school days. So many things have hap- pened since we stepped over the threshold of high school life. Let's look back on some of those things now. You Centralites will remember the good times your class had in the old Central building under the able leader- ship of President Ted Simmons, Vice- President Sherry Caris, Secretary Mary Jo Swambaugh, and Treasurer Marcia Swambaugh. Everyone was full of school spirit for those thrilling games when Doug Bibler was captain of the football team and Ron Conroy was captain of the basketball team. You were a little disappointed when the busy moving schedule made it impos- sible to have a play that year, but be- ing able to finish the school year in the New State Street building more than made up for it. The only sad note of that wonderful year was the death of your principal, Mr. Orcutt, a true friend and educator. At Edison, election week was cli- maxed with Jerry Emery being chosen president, Allen Green, vice-president, Marvin McFann, secretary, and Don Decker, treasurer. Youlhelped to or- FURTY FOUR ganize the first Student Council in the history of Edison and chose Nick Alex, Allen Green, and Marvin McFann as the representatives from your class. Everyone went wild with enthusiasm over the athletic events and this en- thusiasm proved to be well worth the effort when the Edison Troians won the Round Robin that year. Social events, clubs, parties, and especially the three plays, The Patterson Din- ner, Nobody Home, and Wilbur's Wild Night made your freshman year complete. President Ray Winters, Vice-Presi- dent Jim Snyder, Secretary Saundra Middleton, and Treasurer Edna Mc- Wherter were chosen to lead you Vernonites in your freshman year. Once again the oldest ofthe school, you tried to set a good example in leadership and service for the under- classmen. You were pretty proud of the basketball team when they won the Tri-City Championship, weren't you? And then came the plays, Galloping Grandma and The House Next Door, the tea dances, and then the ninth grade party as a fitting climax to that memorable year. Finally the day we had all been waiting for arrived and we became one unified class at Harding. As a re- sult of elections, Marvin McFann was chosen President with Ted Simmons, Mary Jo Swambaugh, and Marcia Jones as his co-workers. Several com- mittees got busy and selected maroon and white as our class colors and the white carnation as the class flower. ln the Future of our Youth Lies the Future of our Country was chosen as our motto. Not to be outdone in the musi- cal field, our class was well repre- sented in the Junior and Senior Choirs, band, and orchestra. Gene Greer, Paul Foster, Ben Bechtel, and Murray Leeper formed a quartet which gave several outstanding performances dur- ing the year. Under the capable leadership of Murray Leeper, Allen Green, Shirley Hoffman, and Jerry Emery, we set out to make our Junior year another event- ful one. Some of the highlights were our presentation of Meet me in St. Louis and playing host to the Seniors at the Junior-Senior Prom. And cer- tainly no one will ever forget the thrill we experienced that day we received our class rings, We all thought the day would never come when the new Harding High would be ready for our use, but our dream came true last fall when we in- itiated the beautiful modern building. After a few weeks, when we had learned to find our way around, we elected Doug Bibler, Allen Green, Sheila Williams, and Jim Popoff to guide us through our final year. The whole year flew by in the rush of the thousand-and-one Senior activities. There were so many exciting things to do-dances, club meetings, and the homecoming game with Queen Anna and her court reigning in all their splendor. And who could ever forget the opening night of our big dramatic production The Curious Savage. But like all good things our high school life had to come to an end and that end came with our graduation. lt hasn't been all play. Yes, there were times when we were ready to give up. But now, we realize that we owe an unpayable debt to our teachers, prin- cipals, and all those who helped in any way to make our high school life the wonderful, never-to-be-forgotten ex- perience that it becomes.

Jim Alex, Sue Foreman, Dick Renn, and Jim Smith were our chosen leaders at Edi- son, Sterling Moore, Ruby Adams, Gary Ballinger, and Jeddy Pratt at State Street, and Joe Snouffer, Gene Armstrong, Ann Larkin, and Pete DeWolfe at Vernon. For some of us, athletics took a great deal of our free time. We proved athletic abilities by com- peting with each other in football and basketball games and track meets. Vernon came out on top in all three sports. Others of us invested our time in musical organizations. We demonstrated our musical ability when we played and sang for various school functions and gave our annual concerts. Our fresh- man plays took the activity spotlight for that year. The Edison players presented three plays, Love In Bloom, Augie Evans, Private Eye, and His First Girl. At State Street the annual plays were Take A Letter, Rabbit's Foot, and Hearts and Flowers, while Wilbur Faces Life and Ghost For Rent were the choices of the Vernon dramatists. We must confess we were o little frightened at the thought of entering Harding as sophomores, but we soon learned that Juniors, Seniors, and high school teachers are pretty nice people after all. After getting acquainted, we elected Gary Ballinger, presi- dent, Hank Rinnert, vice-president, Diane Gillis, secretary, and Ann Larkin, treasurer. Our commit- tees pleased us with the selection of our motto, We Stand Great Today, Yet We Shall Progress ln The Future. Yellow and green are our class colors and the orchid is our flower. Hank Rinnert, Frank D'Eramo, Ann Larkin, and Beverly Mishler led us through a highly successful iunior year. We were so proud the day we received our class rings. Of course every day was an exciting one but there is one day that holds ct special signif- icance for us, especially those of us who took part in that memorable event on November 19. Really Our Hearts Were Young And Gay when the first play to be presented on the stage of the new Harding High was ours. On February 26 we entertained the student body with what from a Junior's point of view was the best talent assembly ever presented at Hard- ing. In the spring, we worked hard and hoped that our guests, the Seniors, would enioy the Prom we had planned for them. From some of the comments we heard later, we knew it had been a success and we 'felt a glow of satisfaction at our accomplishment. All in all, we have had a wonderful time working and playing together and we are looking forward with a thrill of anticipation to next year when we will be on the top and others will look to us for guidance. We hope to set a shining example for future classes of Harding High. SIXTY-THREE 1 --we .,,. e R.. My If .fm H , - A it in lx 3 Hana' ng 'K' an 1, 5 Nl .A . - -5 -- - W, 'ff 5 L.. xy J H, i .

We were pretty proud to think that at last we could call ourselves high school students. At Edison we elected Bob Pace, president, Larry Coy, vice president, Dave Townsend, secretary, and Tex Burns, treasurer. The Edison Trojans won the Round Robin over State Street and Vernon, became co-champions with Vernon in the Mar-Del Basketball League, and won the Tri-City Track Meet. Our Freshman plays, Orchids for Marie, Say Uncle, and N. for Nuisance were dramatic successes, and as a farewell gift to the school we presented fifty dollars for a trampoline. Joe Merchant, president, Nancy Neal, vice president, Ted Bibler, secretary, and Bill Black, treasurer, were the school officers at State Street. Many of us performed in our plays, The Good Egg, Admiral's Daughter, and Unsuspected Fruit. Our leisure time was well spent by participation in various sports, clubs, and social events. We were extremely fortunate in being able to attend such a modern school as State Street was to us. Lowell Carlisle, John Thomas, Linda Larkin, and Phoebe Frew were our official spokes- men at Vernon. The Vernon Bulldogs took the championship of the new Mar-Del Basket- ball League. Hi-Y, Tri-Hi-Y, Dramatics, Photography, and Proiectionists Clubs occupied most of our free time. We were proud to present our two plays, Mystery of the Locked Room and Feudin' Mountain Boys. We weren't so frightened about entering Harding because we knew that the Juniors and Seniors didn't know much more than we did about the new school. We were delighted by the colorful classrooms, individual lockers, the spaciousness Harding had to offer. By election time we had learned to find our way around and met most of our classmates. ln a close race Larry Coy was elected president, Ernie Adams, vice president, Rena Rech, secretary, and Mary Larsen, treasurer. Our extra curricular schedule was crowded with participation in such organizations as band, orchestra, choir, Hi-Y, Tri-Hi-Y, Props and Q's, and many others. Outside of school most of our time was spent at the new Y, Rexalls, and the Jockey. We chose blue and white as our class colors, and the white rose as our class flower. We believe with all our hearts in our motto, Knowledge is Power, so we worked especially hard in class and found that there is a great deal of satisfaction in learning. We have enioyed our first year of school life at Harding. In our remaining two years we will keep its high standards so we can always be proud to say that our class was the first to spend all three years at the new Harding High.

This holds true for all students at Harding, as our new building offers facilities for physical educa- tion to every Hardingite. The varsity sports have bet- ter facilities and our records have shown and will show the results. Intramurals are new at Harding and many students have participated in them, coming at night to play their tournament games. The landscape facilities give us tennis-courts and baseball and soft- ball diamonds. As Grantland Rice has stated, For when the One Great Scorer comes to write against your name, He marks-not that you won or lost- but how you played the game. 1 ,rid ---' ' t---- - . ,fbi the staff Mr. Ken Somerlot, Harding's Athletic Co-Ordi- nator, works round the clock many a day with the scheduling of games, staging of athletic contests, hiring of referees, arranging transpor- tation forthe team in all kinds of weather, and publicizing events of the season concerning the physical education program. To keep him out of mischief he coaches track and cross country boys the entire year. His staff includes Pete Howison, head football and baseball coach, .lim Lawler, head basketball coach and back- field coach, Lou Ralston, line coach and as- sistant track coach, Al Beach, line coach and reserve basketball coach, and John Luginbuhl, golf, tennis, and intramural coach. The only . femme of the athletic staff, Mrs. Elizabeth Top- liff, has complete charge of girls' physical edu- cation and intramurals for the fairer sex. the athletic tory As the architects planned each phase of our school life and designed the new Harding High School and its surroundings, sports were very much in the picture. To help in carrying on a successful athletic season, many modern facilities were added to lift the spirits of both participants and spectators. During the 1953 track season, our thinclads, in spite of bad practice facilities extended their win streak to 35. Lacking afield to play on, our baseball team had to travel to Lincoln Park for their games and practice sessions. Even with these hardships they managed to end the season with a 8-3-1 record. With the arrival of fall, we ushered in another foot- ball season. The old practice field had been mostly covered up when the new school was built, leaving the bulk of the practice to be held on the regular e co-ordinator it , field. A successful season ended with a 6-2-1 record. Another fall sport, Cross Country, came through with flying colors and a 7-3 record. When basketball rolled around, our new facilities began showing up. For the first time in our school's history, the team had a gym of their own. They ended the season with a 8-12 record. This year the track team had new locker rooms in the new school and an indoor place to run during the winter. Next year the baseball and football teams will be greeted with new practice facilities. Facilities were put in to sponsor tennis and golf. Tennis courts were built on the outside, while a practice driving range was constructed on the gym stage. All in all the architect did a good iob. He has provided for more and better sports at Harding. , F ' SEVENTY EIGHT On the gridiron, the Harding Presidents this year had a successful season, with six games won, one tied, and two lost. The game with Ashland rings in our ears and as a result of this tie Harding has the Erie Trophy in its possession six months of the calendar year. Opinion is universal when it comes to the thrill a football game gives American youth, but it is the boys on the team that make a gridiron year impressionable. Prexies claimed honors well worth recording. Bob Hamor topped the list by making first team defense guard on the United Press All-Ohio team, honorable mention on the AP team, offensive tackle on Coaches' team, Toledo Blade All-League, and an alternate to the All-American Team. Bob Caldwell, on the Associated Press team, had honorable mention of the All-Ohio and was chosen offensive center on the Coaches All- League team. Gary Ballinger was chosen offensive fullback by the coaches on their All-League team and the Toledo Blade chose him offensive fullback on their All-League team. Jim Whaley was given honorable mention by the United Press on their All-Ohio team while the coaches gave him honorable mention on their All-League team. Fred Price was chosen defensive back, All-League, by the coaches and Doug Bibler was given honorable mention as defensive back by the Coaches on their All-League team. Team mates fought hard to make these honors possible and our Re- serves had a very creditable season. They won four and lost two games, so you can see they promise us gridiron thrills in the fall. ist row: L. Robinson, L. Clinger, B. Pryor, J. Obenour, J. Whaley, F. Price, B. Hamor, D. Bibler, F.

It marked the first time since 1946 the Cowboys had been shutout in a football contest. That white- wash was also applied by the Presidents 20-0. While the first quarter was spent feel- ing each other out, action picked up from then on. The only score of the game was set up in the second quarter when Harding intercepted a West pass in Hard- ing territory. A 60-yard drive by the Pre- xies was climaxed when Gary Ballinger crashed over for the score. The remain- der of the game was played in Harding territory with West threatening to score but Harding's defense was unbeatable. Time and time again Harding's strong de- fensive play stopped the Cowboys cold. I. ' 11 r' Qi .mia .fig x :-31-1 -, 5 4 ' 1 rt- . It f x.- Gary Ballinger . 1- I . 1 s , .

Tiffin's lone score was the first Harding defend- ers allowed this year. It came after their quarterback had been chased to the mid- field stripe where he let go with a pass to the Prexie's end zone. Two of Hard- ing's touchdowns came in the second pe- riod. Albinack bounced in for the first and Prater fell on a loose ball in the end zone for the second. Early in the fourth quarter Chet King added the insurance tally. He scored from the 17 on a cross- buck which fooled everybody.

King finally smashed off tackle for two yards and a score in the fourth period. With slightly more than three minutes remain- ing, Bibler pulled in an enemy pass at their 40. He shook off two tacklers, cut to the sideline, and skipped all the way for the final score. Obenour converted the three extra points. Hamor and Bibler played a bang-up defensive game. 5 l Q. .

They led until midway in the fourth period when King crashed off tackle for the score. Obenour con- verted to tie the score. Harding threat- ened again in the fourth period but beau- tiful defense play by Don McBride stalled the Prexies attack. A parade through downtown Ashland, with Harding and Ashland students and their bands, took the bell to Ashland's gridiron. The tie presented a problem as to where the bell should stay.

The Presidents knotted the count when Ballinger hit paydirt in the same quarter. Whitcomb scored again to put the Ross- men ahead to stay. Fremont scored again in the third period with Franks doing the honors. During the fourth period, Whit- comb scored two more times for added insurance.

Harding drew first blood late in the second quarter when Doug Bibler plunged one-yard for the six-points. Ear- ly in the third period a pass to King bounced off his fingers into the air and Bob Hamor grabbed tt and raced for the only score of his Harding career. Then led by the defensive unit, the Prexies re- gained the ball and this time it was Chug Ballinger who powered his way over from the four. The Blue Streaks got desperate and took to the air but Hard- ing's defense was knit tight and Sandusky gained only 65 yards all night. The entire Harding team was singled out for their fine defensive work. coaches With the Harding coaches, headed by Pete Howison, there is a spirit that team work must prevail among coaches as well as among players. Coach Howison received his know how in football at Ohio Northern and Ohio State. Al Beach, for- mer Harding player and Xavier graduate, works with the guards and centers. Lou Ralston, captain of the football team at Baldwin-Wallace, brought to the Prexie tackles gridiron information. Jim Lawler, an athlete at Northern, came to Hard- ing from Vernon where he was a very successful football coach. He works with backfields, and the boys respect him as they do all of the staff, for their youthful point of view. Because of understanding coaches in his high school days, Don Kay, the only member of the staff not on the faculty, coaches the ends for the love he has for athletes and athletics. erie bell Dedicated to Good Sportsmanship and Fair Play is the inscription found on the huge bell-trophy which was presented to Harding and Ashland as a travel- ing trophy forthe annual football competion between the iW0 5Ch00lS- This year's football managers, Charles Newman, Mr. Robert H.

Evelyn Price in a sweet soprano voice sang She's the Sweetheart of Harding High, and the Queen and the Court members were escorted to the field stage from which they viewed the game. Escorts for the other girls were Joe Albinack, Ron Conroy, Ted Simmons, and Jim Whaley. A dance was held in the school lunchroom where John Barnhart and his band provided the music and the sound floor well took the Bunny Hop. Climaxing the already full evening was an Open House at Queen Anna's which lasted a bit past the usual curfew time. Reminiscing about the 1953 Homecoming brings fair weather autumn night, yellow chrysanthemums the field, a football game with Columbus Central and an Open-house.

Winning the opening four games we were ready for an excellent season but we hit a snare and had a slump from there on. We won several more games but even the games we lost were exciting, especial- ly to the spectators. Losing by one or two points in several games, all spectators were perched on the edge of their seats till the crack of the gun. This was the first year that Harding has had a gym of her own in which to practice. This section of the building measures overall 170 feet by 168 feet. The basketball court measures 84 feet by 50 feet and is expansive enough to accommodate two cross courts of the same size. Folding bleachers that will seat 1200 spectators are along the north and south sides of the building. Entering the building by the gym entrance the first impression is of the huge trophy case with tro- phies from many sports including basketball natu- rally. Other gym facilities include the large locker, shower, and dressing rooms, apparatus rooms: athletic supply and rubbing room, and an athletic office for both boys and girls. Lettermen this year include Ron Conroy, high scoreman with 287 points, Bob Hamor, second with 190 points, but with the highest percentage of shots made, 42.5 of., Doug Bibler with 184 points, Dave Schnelker with 165 points, Don Smith with 149 Q9 points, Max Kaelber with 143 points, and Phil Car- roll, the only returning letterman with 66 points. Ron Conroy was chosen second-string guard on the Buck- eye League team. We won 8 games and lost 12. But in those 20 games 1301 points were scored in comparison with the 1304 made by our opponents. That made an average of 65 points to each game and 65.2 points for our opponents. The tournament game against Mansfield played at the coliseum was a disappointment to both the team and the fans. We scored lst. and scores were close during the entire game but we were not able to surpass the speedy Mansfield Tygers. As Mr. Lawler stated the greatest factor that kept us from having a better season was our lack in size. Most of our opponents have taller boys than we do. But he also said that he considered it a good season. Al Beach had charge of the Vice-President squad. By working extensively they had a record of 13 games won and 6 lost for the season. The Harding Booster Club, with Mr. William Hamor President, furnished the boys with their red and white socks and 15 rubber basket balls for summer practice. The crowds should give the team a good send off by filling the bleachers when cage season rolls around again. ist row: M. Kaelber, D. Schnelker, B. Humor, D. Smith, R. Conroy, D. Bibler. 2nd row: J.

But they finished with a record of seven wins and three losses: second in the Bowling Green Relays, third in the District meet, twelfth in the State meet, and third in the A.A.U. meet. All in all it was another excellent season for Coach Kenny Somerlot. Co-captains Hugh Kinnamon and Gene Monroe, along with Dick Bollinger and Allen Green, were the four returning letter- men, these with Dallas Foos, Dick Mull and Ben Dozier won their numerals in some very rough competition. Harding won over Worthington 22-33, Bedford 25-31, Springfield 24-31, Mansfield 27-28, Fremont 15-49, Colum- bus South 21-40, and Upper Arlington 15-50 while losing to Worthington 33-23, Mansfield 30-25, and Columbus West 33-24. Gene Monroe set a new course record at the Country Club when he sped the two mile distance in 10:20 to break John Ashworth's 10:35 set in 1951. Other records were Hugh Kin- namon, 10:42, Dick Bollinger, 10:51, Ben Dozier, 10:57, Dallas Foos, 11:25, and Dick Mull 11:28. Next year Harding will hope to turn out another top-notcher with Ben Dozier, letterman, and Roger Ward, Tim Thomas, Bud Metz, and Al Hopkins, all of whom made the trips this year and added to the strength ofthe squad. lst row: D.

' these stimulate fair play Service along with letter earning was the thought in the minds of Varsity H Club members this year. The group was complete- ly re-organized with emphasis on partici- pation in many ways at the new Harding. During the gridiron season non-football members served as ushers at home games thus eliminating game time confusion, they also sold yellow mums for the Homecoming game with the proceeds going to the Marion Night Relays. When basketball season rolled around the club operated a coat room for the convenience of cage goers.

On the home room basis, Ping Pong matches were held, and twenty-four basketball teams staged tourna- ments using the single elimination method. All officials and score keepers for the games were fur- nished by the G.A.A. Girls' basket- ball champions were Home Room 213, who defeated the Vocational girls. Among the newest innovations at Harding are Boys' Intramurals. This activity gave non-varsity boys a chance to participate in active sports. Among these were football tournament, basketball, and foul shoot- ing. Jim Kratzer was foul shooting champion and re- ceived a medal for this. physical education fun for everyone e Ns X: .' A , . ' 5 Y, ai, . ' Q . Boys and girls have a great variety of sports availa- ble to them in the physical education classes. Basket- ball, Volley ball, and Tumbling are the main divisions in both classes. Mrs. Topliff, the girls' instructor, teaches basketball with girl's rules to her classes and keeps a close check to see that all girls take showers even though they dislike them. Mr. Somerlot, boys' instructor takes a roll call in his class to make sure every one is accounted for. He also is quite interested in the tumbling form of the athletics. l E Q, J Tennis is a new sport at Hard- ing because of the excellent facilities provided by the three outdoor courts. Coach John Luginbuhl enjoyed the many opportunities he had to help such outdoor athletes as Joe Albinack and Gib Herr perfect strokes and drives. Matches were scheduled with Shelby, Fremont, and San- dusky in addition to a district meet. NINETY-TWU Another sport that came on the horizon, because inside facilities provided practice until better weather came, was golf. The squad to begin with was limited to twelve boys and forthe first year six matches were scheduled with neighboring towns in addi- tion to the district meet. All teeing off was on either Mar-O-Del or Country Club courses and all inside driv- ing practice was in the gym. rs ii X ,if 'i L -1' Riitiilii 'i g, ,lileiail ', A 'ltxilf 'N ' x WC Who Are We? Harding! Who? Harding! r . it il- l cheerleaders boost spirit 12 Leading the Harding fans in the old locomotive and the fight cheers for the athletic season of the 53-54 year were seven peppy feminine Prexies. Bev McCurdy led as cap- tain, assisted in routine cheering by Sherry Caris, Linda Larkin, Barbara Thayer, Carol Blair, Sue Foreman, and Bev Stein. For football season, the colorful attire is red sweaters, and black corduroy skirts with red insets. ln basketball season, the outfits are white long sleeved blouses worn with the black skirts, black weskits, and red velvet ties. Gone are the days of practicing in the corridors as they did at Old Harding, for now they go directly to the gym to work out formations under the understanding assistance What'll we do? Ml-ogg r ' Q ln this series of pictures, we tell the story of a cheer. ln the first picture, the girls were not sure what cheer they would do. The second picture shows the beginning of the cheer, and we see the end of the cheer in the third photo. the- y' nic of their Coach Mrs. William Oli- phant. The presence of these gals at the games during football season, no matter what the weather, gave in- spiration to the crowds to cheer the boys to victory. With the ever in- creasing crowds that will come next year, once we become accustomed to our big gym, the rafters should really ring. Always do we respond well when we proudly cheer P-R-E- X-I-E-S!

Our Marion merchants and manufacturers realize this, and they give us many privileges and advantages. Mercantile establishments co-operate with the school by hiring students in the vocational depart- ment. The industries of Marion sponsor the B.l.E. Day where Seniors see the wheels of Marion turning. All of these establishments help your school by pur- chasing ad space in the football programs, Herald, and Quiver. We ask that you support these merchants and manufacturers, as they help make your school publications a success, both in finances and quality. Typical of these far-sighted businessmen is Mr. John Gries, a teacher at Harding since 1922, who at the end of the first semester laid aside his school books to devote full time to his own paper supply concern.

We made radi- cal changes, and you might not recognize the year- book, except for the name on the cover. Each phase of school life and the modern facilities have been featured, and I hope we have covered everything. In the beginning section of the book, we tried to show the planning, construction, and administration of the school. The activities section was designed to show all the groups and organizations at Harding. Senior panels show many activities not covered by regular organizations. In the years to come, we will all remember the thrilling games and sporting events of 1954. Your '54 Quiver has tried to tell the story of each sport, varsity or intramural. Preparing a yearbook is a large task and I would like to thank many people for myself and the staff, who have helped us make the '54 Quiver the best ever. The help of Mr. James J. McGurk of the William J. Keller Company has been especially appreciated by the staff. Also Mr. Benz of the Smith Cover Co. helped Bob Knachel design the modern black and white cover. We would also like to thank Mr. Cecil Gabler, Principal, Mr. Darl Gatchell, Assistant Prin- cipal, Mr. James Smith, School Treasurer, Mr. Ray- mond Hoops, School Print Shop, and Miss Lucile Formen, Journalism Instructor. Many organizations and people in the community have helped us and I wish to acknowledge this aid. The Marion Star ran several feature stories for us, and these, along with WMRN's comments and plugs, undoubtedly boosted our sales. We could not have had such an efficient business staff without the help of the Marion Cham- ber of Commerce and the Hall-Beck Equipment Co. Mr. Dickey and all the administration have helped bring us facts on the preparation and construction of the new school. We have had two fine photog- raphers, Mr. Dale Hughes of Hughes Studio, and Jim Busch, Harding grad of '5l. I certainly shouldn't leave out you, our readers, as teachers and students at Harding, for your help in identifying pictures, preparing copy and giving us moral support, My personal thanks, also with the staff's, go to Miss Mary Jo Stafford, Adviser, who really came through when it meant the most. This is your book, as we have prepared it. I hope that in the years to come, it will help you remember the first year in the new Marion Harding High School.
