The luture is what we all look forward to cmd wonder about. We picture many things when we think ol the future. but as to what it has in store for us is an uncertainty to each of us.. The most we can do is to live our lives the best we know how and pray that the future with all happiness and sorrows fit into our lives and produce ' ter ever known. the peop le with the greatest charac 2 eJical4hn..Q.! t A We the Senior Class of l944 wish to dedicate our annual to the future. Future, meaning the future of not only those of the class members but also the future of our loved ones, friends, relatives, under classmen, and those that will have gratifying satisfaction of entering upon the threshold of the extremely great institution of which we are so deeply proud. We may call ourselves pioneers as we look to the future. A pioneer as Webster describes him is one that goes before to pre- pare the way. We are pioneers of those who will follow us. It must be understood that the pioneer is not in any sense a destroyer. He does not march for the mere love of adventure, but always to find a larger freedom. He does not pause in order to destroy, but to build to peace a civilization. The pioneer spirit of a futuristic understanding is celebrated by Walt Whitman in his poem Pioneers! O Pioneers! is typical of America. PIONEERS! O PIONEERS! We cannot tarry here, We must march, my darlings, we must bear the brunt of danger, We, the youthful races, all the rest on us depend, Pioneers! O pioneers! O you youths, western youths, So impatient, full of action, ful! of manly pride and friendship, Plain I see you, western youths, see you tramping with the foremost, Pioneers! O pioneers! Have the elder races halted? Do they droop and end their lesson, wearied, over there beyond the seas? We take up the task eternal, and the burden, and the lesson, Pioneers! O pioneers! All the past we leave behind, We debouch upon a newer, mightier world, varied world, Fresh and strong the world we seize, World of labor and the march, Pioneers! O pioneers! Q We detachments steady throwing, Down the edges. through the passes, up the mountains steep, Conquering, holding, daring, venturing, as we go, the unknown ways, Pioneers! O pioneers! We primeval forests felling. We the rivers stemming, vexing we, and piercing deep the mines within, We the surface broad surveying, and the virgin soil upheaving, Pi eers! O pioneers! Cdlfdrado men are we, From the peaks gigantic, from the great sierras and the high plateaus, From the mine and from the gully, from the hunting trail we come, Pioneers! O pioneers! From Nebraska, from Arkansas, Central inland race are we, from Missouri, with the continental blood in- tervein'd. lt!! the hands of comrades clasping, all the Southern, all the Northern, Pioneers! O pioneers! O resistless, restless race! O beloved race in all! O my breast aches with tender love for all! M O l mourn and yet exult-I am rapt with love for all, Pioneers! O pioneers! All the pulses of the world. Falling in, they beat for us, with the western movement beat: Holding single or together, steady moving, to the front, all for us, Pioneers! O pioneers! Nlma Meier Here's to thee, our Hopewell-Loudon Cherish in' our song Honor, love, and true devotion, All to her belong, Chorus: Lift the chorus, speed it onward, Loud her praises tell, Hail to thee, our Alma Mater Hail, all hail, to thee. Honor to the Gray and Scarlet, Banner that we love ' Shall lead us in the conflict, And our triumph prove. Chorus: Lift the chorus, speed it onward, Loud her praises tell, Hail to thee, our Alma Mater Hail, all hail, to thee. LEADERS . l I l - r fQ2:flfD'i2'f7', fif'r1x.

To teachers who have given the wonderful advice and instruction, we as students wish to express our sincere thanks and hope that we have not taxed their patience by our ignorance. We have all accomplished something through the school term which has increased our knowledge and will help us to become better known throughout our school and community. I Bamcfcvfffcfncaiian During this critical period of World confusion and conflict, it is difficult to express in mere words that which is in our hearts. We as Americans are fighting to preserve the safety of our homes, our families and our very existence. As men and Women and boys and girls, we must all strive together to conquer the deadly enemies of freedom. There is no stronger foundation nor finer background for cz useful life than a high school education and there is no place in the world Where we can enjoy our advantages and associations as We do in the United States of America. So let us take as our slogan the Words used by a famous com- mentator, 'iWork, fight, give, make Democracy life. VIRGIL P.

Agnes Sheeter tOHice Secretaryl Agnes is always ready to do some task in a moment's notice. She is kept busy answering the telephone, writing the schools correspondence, keeping the financial records of all the school orga- nizations, handling the school supplies and keeping the records for the bus drivers. This she does willingly, courte- ously and etticiently. A. W. Iones Superintendent B.Sci, and M.A. in Education Ohio State University lAlways going some place.l I consider it a privilege to be able to com- mend our youth who are performing all types of service to our country. Our recommendations to those who are still in school are to study more diligently the fundamental subjects, to keep physically tit, and to keep their thinking on worth- while things. Many of our lormer stu- dents and graduates are in camps and on every battle front throughout the world. They are fighting that we may keep our American Way ol Life. i L: H. R. Miller A.B. in Heidelberg College M.A. in Education Ohio State University English-Biology fTraliic cop in Hopewell,Loudon's hcllsj Man dwells between two enternities, the eternity ot the past, the eternity of the future. Too often his past represents unsat- isfactory achievement, unsatisfactory, be- cause he can do better. To atone for these past disappointments, man, therefore, hopes continuously that his future prom- ises more glory than his past. This hope spurs him to try again for achievement. For the Senior Class of l944, graduating with high hopes, it is my sincere desire that your disappointments be few and your achievemements many and glorious.

The class first displayed their ability when they presented their play Meet My Wives, under the direction of Mr. Miller in the latter part of November. Following the class play came debate and one-act play in which they again had participants. Some boys were in basketball throughout the season and others made ample con- tributions in winning the runner-up trophy tor track on May 7. Every member of the class did an equal share in publishing the Scarlet Banner which we hope met or excelled all your expectations. Members ot the class also had important positions in the Music Department, F. F, A., G. R., and F. l-I. A. You can also tind the high individual scrap collector, and high indi- vidual magazine salesman in our room, We hope to extend our participation as a group in the future. President ,. ,.,, . .

The activities aren't necessarily a relaxation oi rest or sleep but is a relaxation from our class rooms. Many activities require much more work than our studies but il it were not tor these activities many students would lose interest in school. We believe in work but lite would be too short and unenjoyable for anyone it we didn't have time for play and relaxation as well as work. ,aww ,swf Top Row-Nevin Border, Ralph Kimmett, Iarnes Haugh, Iunior Shumnker, Ralph Gilli- land, Charles Fruth, Richard Walters, Neil Shaull.

With the excellent guidance of our faculty advisor, Mr. Iones, we have been able to once again produce the Scarlet and Gray in spite of material shortage, We have had a great many difficulties and setbacks in producing the annual but we have done our best. We feel that it is the best anyone could do under the circumstances, In return tor our work we ask only your complete satisfaction. The class of 44 has acknowledged the truth in the saying, Where there is a will, there is or way. At thebeginning of the 43-44 year it seemed useless to give a moment's thought to an annual on account of the complications incited by the present war, however. having made some investigations on our own part, we of the class decided it Could be done.

The staff has enjoyed publishing the paper and has tried to make it interesting to the students of the school. For the Easter number we had an appropriate colored front cover. For the Spring issue, our editor drew a cover design of blue birds and their house, which was finished in iour colors, For our final issue, the color scheme was red, white, and blue: the front cover having a clever picture by our art editor on red paper, the news on white paper, and the back cover on blue paper. The juniors are proud to say they typed and cut their own stencils for the last three issues, and typed the rough drafts for the last five issues. Otherwise, the Senior Typing Class did the typing.

Phillips, Vocational Agriculture ln- structor. , The Young Farmers faged 18-26l met each Wednesday night from De- cember 7, 1943, to March 29, 1944. They discussed Livestock Problems with emphasis on feeding and sanitation. Seventeen members were enrolled. They will also meet once each month during the summer for social and recre- ational meetings. The Adult Farmer group met each Monday night lrom Ianuary 4, 1944, to March 27, 1944. Their discussion centered around general Farm Management problems. The average attendance of this group was thirty-seven men per meeting. The largest attendance lor a single meeting was one hundred and liiteen. We were very fortunate to have Mr, Howard Davidson, Swine Specialist, Mr. L, P. McCann, Beet Specialist: Mr. Earl lanes, Crop Specialistsg and Mr. Guy Miller, Rural Economist, all lrom the Ohio State University, College ol Agriculture, as speakers at tour of our meetings, dam Wawpkoq Time marches on, 1960, and the class of 1944 of the Hopewell-Loudon school is having its annual party. l.et's sneak up and look in the keyholee-Well! Well! First I see Rita Kuhn-good dependable Rita-she's not married you know, she's still a stearnstress applying her home economics arts. Next is Ralph Gilliland who is a contented farmer-his waist .line has increased considerably since he left school. Raplh Kimmet is a farmer, too, I think. Oh, yes, there is Dick Walters-you wou1dn't know him now. He's strutting around because he is the first mayor of Bascom to be elected for a third term. Seated beside the mayor of Bascom is Mr. and Mrs, Richard Shumaker-Richard is a retired naval officer and Alice is a housewife. Richard Lauer and Arvilla are discussing world affairs. Richard is a senator trying to get justice for the common people. Arvilla is married and has eight children. Ioyce Eschenbrenner is married and lives on a large and beautiful farm in northern Ohio. Annabelle fFox7 Hendricks and Mary Rose fGrovesl Abrams came together from Cleve- land, Some of the outstanding farmers around Bascom are Francis Brickner, Nevin Border, lim Haugh, Charles Fruth, and we are now looking at one of the greatest hog specialists in Ohio who is LeVerne Wertz, ' Iunior Libby is proud of his famous son who is conducting a swing band. Regina Bibbee and Mary Sendelbach are both married and living happily. But it didn't turn out so well for Martha Oswald-she has been wedded three times. Well!'! Such is life! We have interviewed twenty of the classmates, and those left are Iunior Shumaker, a foreman in an airplane factory at Bascomp Neil Shaull, a high school coach at Angus, and last, but not least, Rev. Dwight Bennett who has a church in Bascom, Dinner is iust about over so we'll leave before we're seen, So, we say good-bye and Good Luck to the graduates of forty-four. 6-7.04474 The F. H. A. organized early in the fall with fifteen members. Our membership decreased during the year because one girl was forced to leave school because of illness and another moved away, Initiation was held November 3, 1943 with ten girls being given the Little Women degree and fifteen girls received the Candlelight degree, The first event of the year was a game supper sponsored by the F. F. A., F. H. A., and G. R. The boys shot the game and the girls prepared the food. The next event was a Leap Year Party given for the F. F. A. boys. The F. H, A. and G. R. played hosts, by escorting the boys, and in general taking the boys' place. The boys enjoyed the evening by making the girls open doors for them and carry all sorts of odds and ends, The club sent four representatives to Columbus April 29 to the State Convention. They were lewell Myers, Norma Steyer, Mary Rose Groves, and Rita Kuhn. The girls gained much infor- mation as to how' they can better the club next year. The financial status of the club was maintained by the girls working hard selling pop during basketball season and working in the cafeteria during the Music Festival.

During the past year the Girl Reserves had a membership of approximately forty. Any high school girl who is interested in Christian fellowship and is willing to accept the Girl Reserve code is entitled to membership in the organization. Regular meetings were held each Tuesday. Some of these were devoted entirely to business and programs while others were spent in completing some useful and practical projects for the lunior Red Cross. Two receiving blankets and the top for a third were finished, also one scrapbook. At the Christmas season the girls usually undertake some worthy task. This year broken toys were mended lor poor children. ln addition to regular meetings, several social functions were enjoyed. One ot the most unusual of these was the leap year party planned in cooperation with the F. H. A. for the boys of the F. F. A. At this event the situation was reversed-the girl acted as the escort. We hope to send two officers to Camp Pittinger to the district Girl Reserve Camp to be held one week in Iuly. This session is sponsored by the Y. W. C. A. and we feel much value can be brought to our own organization through delegates. OFFICERS President .. . ......... ...... .....,.., . .. . Regina Bibbee Secretary ., .. . .,.. ,.

Appointed commitees planned the programs tor the monthly meetings. A short play and reports on Roman lite and activities were the outstanding numbers.

The membership of the Hopewell-Loudon Honor Society is constituted ol all honor students of the Iunior and Senior classes. Having attained a B average or above determines a students eligibility for membership in this worthy organization. Being a member of your school Honor Society automatically makes you a member ol the County Honor Society, which, in turn, is com- posed ot all the honor societies of the Seneca County Centralized high schools. Membership in the organization is truly an ideal for any student to acquire. This year, restricted travel conditions limited the County Honor Society to holding two meetings. The Hopewell-Loudon Chapter was host for the first county-wide meeting on December 13. The Hopewell-Loudon Girls' Trio sang for the group. Superintendent S. E. Martin appropriately addressed the assembly. Then Mr. and Mrs. Russel Snavely of Thompson led the group in mixer recreation lor more than an hour. The local Chapter served refreshments. The second all-county meeting was held at Old Fort school, April 18. The program was made up of contributions from each school represented.

On March 14 the cast entered the first elimination at Iackeon and because they were winners they next entered the finals at Melmore on March 16.

The Hopewell-Loudon Band which has grown to be an organization ot very line musi- cal ability has just finished another year ot successful playing, During the year the band has remained about the same size despite the tact ol losing twelve Senoirs last year. ' The band played at lairs, basketball games, school programs, concerts and other school activities. It is still acknowledged as the best organization that the community has ever had. This year, like last year there were no national, state, or district conferences held. But many individual members of the band proved their superior playing ability at the Seneca county solo and ensemble contest.

STULTZ Navy Marines CARL NUSSER Bus Driver ' NORBERT WARD DONALD ADAMS Army Navy 726 Elacmac The muffled drum's sad roll hos beat The soldiers last tattoo: No more on Life's parade shall meet That brave and fallen few. On Fame's eternal camping-ground Their silent tents are spread. And Glory guards, with solemn round, The bivouac of the dead. No rumor of the foe's advance Now swells upon the wind: No troubled thought at midnight haunts Of loved ones left behind: No vision of the morrow's strife The warrior's dream alarms: No braying horn, no screaming fife, At dawn shall call to arms. The neighing troop, the flashing blade, The bugle's stirring blast, The charge, the dreadful cannonade, The din and shout are paste Nor War's wild note, nor Glory's peaf, Shall thrill with fierce delight Those breasts that never more may feel The rapture of the fight. Like the fierce northern hurricane That sweeps his great plateau, Flushed with the triumph yet to gain, Came down the serried foe- W ho heard the thunder of the fray Break o'er the field beneath, Knew well the watchword of that day Was Victory or Death! Full many a norther's breath hath swept O'er Angostura's plain, And long the pitying sky has wept Above its mouldered slain. The raven's scream, or eag1e's flight, ayzbzmz Or shepherd's pensive lay, Alone now wakes each sullen height That frowned o'er that dread fray. Sons of the Dark and Bloody Ground! Ye must not slumber there. Where stranger steps and tongues resound Along the heedless air. Your own proud land's heroic soil Shall be your fitter grave: She claims from War his richest spoil- The ashes of her braves. Thus 'neath their parent turf they rest, Far from the gory fieldg Borne to a Spartan mother's breast On many a bloody shield, The sunshine of their native sky Smiles sadly on them here, And kindred eyes and hearts watch by The heroes' sepulchre. Rest on, embalmed and sainted dead! Dear as the blood ye gave! No impious footstep here shall tread The herbage of your grave, Nor shall your glory be forgot While Fame her record keeps, Or Honor points the hallowed spot Where Valor proudly sleeps. Yon marble minstrel's voiceless stont In deathless song shall tell, When many a vanished year hath flown The story how ye fell. Nor wreck, nor change, nor Winters blight, Nor Time's remorseless doom, Can dim one ray of holy light That gilds your glorious tomb. -By Theodore O'Hara cwzflfame l, Ralph Kimmel, 2.

B. Noble, our new coach, who coached at Oberlin Business Col- lege before he came to Hopewell-Loudon. This year the basketball squad members elected an honorary captain as they have in previous years. Richard Walters, a Senior, received the honor. He will receive a small individual trophy. This honor was given to him because of his outstanding sportsmanship, excellent playing, and his constant cooperation with the squad. We will greatly miss Dick in future years.
