THE HOUR GLASS Published by the Class of June ’27 ■| John Adams High School x x Foreword 0 “Hour Glass work on you is finished. The hands of many have labored for long days to bring you into existence. Now your contents will be hastily read, your pictures scanned, and you will be packed away, there to remain until at some time in the future your owner chances to find, you again. And if at that time you help him to call to mind some friend whose image has dimmed through the years, or to revive his schooldays at the fountain of memories, then, O Hour Glass, you will have accomplished that for which you were created. The Editor. Seitirattan TO the one who has made this book possible, the one who helped with it as he has at all times helped in the four years we have come under his influence, the one who did not condemn faulty ideas but tactfully suggested better, the one who is not merely the head of the school but the leader of all its students, we gratefully dedicate the “Hour Glass”— Our Principal, PLINY H.

During our freshman days the haughty sophomores teased us, and we wondered when we would reach the noble state of seniordom. Our fun and enjoyment at this time was concentrated in one huge event, the Freshman mixer. During our first year at Adams our basketball team won the Junior High Championship of Cleveland. In our sophomore year John Adams had for the first time a team in the Senate. We worked at our studies, and our entertainment was derived from homeroom and club parties. At last we were Juniors. We could begin to imitate the “wonderful” seniors. Our junior year saw the graduating of the first class from John Adams High School. Then the day of all days came, we were SENIORS. At our first organized 12B meeting we chose John O'Bell, president; Edna Shepherd, vice-president; France. Weber, treasurer; and Charles Chase, secretary. During our first half year as seniors we staged our first dance which was highly successful. Our “Hard Time Party” was another social event on our calendar. Then in the second week in January we acted as hosts to the February Class of 1927 at a banquet at Hotel Cleveland. Not to be forgotten in the history of our class are our homeroom teachers, more often known as faculty advisors. Quite fitting too is the term advisor, for boys in Mr. George I,. Bush’s or Mr. Oscar P. Schneider’s homeroom well know the helpfulness of the advice given by these teachers, just as the girls in Miss Louise Knirk’s, Miss H. Lillian Maiden’s, or Mrs. Dorothy Whitten’s homeroom remember the encouragement and aid they received. In our last semester at school in our first meeting we re-elected the officers of the previous term. During this term we held another dance which also scored a huge success. For one day we discarded our grown-up airs and our fashionable clothes and became “babes.” This was on Kid Day. Too, we started an annual movement in our school, which was made a tremendous success through the supervision of Charles Chase, the business knowledge of Martin Siegel, the efficient editing of Ruth Maurer and the wonderful cooperation of Robert Long, George Petuska, Katharine Barry, and Sylvia Lupson. On May 27, the 12B class acted as our hosts at a banquet at the Hotel Cleveland. Finally on June 16, 1927, we graduated leaving John Adams in body, but not in spirit.

Signed: The Class of June 1927 Witnesses: Father Time The Clock GUaaa SYLVIA LUPSON AXI) MORRIS AMOUR THE scene is laid in the Paris home of Sylvia Lupson, the eminent criminal lawyer. It is the year 1942. The curtain rises disclosing a magnificently furnished living room. In one corner of the room stands a small settee and adjacent to it is a crimson-colored divan on which Miss Lupson is reclining. On the panelled wall besides an oriental tapestry is a picture of the John Adams June Class of 1927. Sylvia: (gazing at the portrait on the wall) “I often wonder how some of the friends of mv high school days at Adams are faring amid the storms of the world. What has the passing decade and half done to them. Where are they now? (The doorbell rings and she goes to answer it.) “Why Robert Long! Oh, I am so happy' It does me good to see one of the old Adams crowd. I was just looking at that picture on the wall and wonder- I’age ftrcvti six HOUR GLASS ing about the friendships I cultivated and cherished during my high school career. By the way, Robert, what mission brings you here to Paris. Is it some fair-haired maiden? Robert Long: No, though one can never tell when love is hovering near. I am at present busy writing a series of articles on Parisian night life for a leading American publication. So, I am here to absorb the perfumed atmosphere of the French apache world. Sylvia: (Her eyes beaming) “Robert, let’s invite every member of our class at Adams to take a cruise around the world. Robert: “Yes, and we shall have the voyage supervised by Jeannette Miller and Mary Jane Miller of the Miller and Miller Tours to Every Land. They have an excellent itinerary. It’s under the personal supervision of Irma Hromodka. Sylvia: “Let’s get in touch with some of the old Adamites at once. Robert: “The fates are with us. Here comes Charles Chase and Martin Siegel. Charles: “Why, Sylvia, You a noted criminal counsellor! Who would have thought it back there at Adams! Martin: “And You Rob Long a foreign correspondent. Life surely takes some queer twists. It didn’t though with Ruth Lapidus and Mildred Hurley. They’re typists for the New York Sun. Robert: “Who in his wildest nightmares would have dreamed that Charles Chase and Martin Siegel would be the producers of “Cousins” a musical fantasy starring Charlotte Bathorv, supported by Ruth Horvath, and Marv and Anna Soltis? Charles: “Do you know that the aforementioned play was written bv James Hendry in collaboration with Morris Amdur? Mr. Hendry who is one of our leading American lyric poets, and Mr. Amdur, one of our noted short story writers, have also w ritten “Red Head Where Are You” for Dorothee Mailer, the noted stage tragedienne. It is being produced in London by Daniel Geller and Charlotte Stoltz. Robert: “Things are surely happening. Here come two old friends, David Birnholtz and Maurice ShafTer. David: “Welcome Brother Gyp- pers! It makes my heart sing to see you once again. Maurice: “Ah, if only the rest of the gvppers were here. Then it would be like old times. Sylvia: “Do you know where they are and what they arc doing? Oh, do you know' that Jeannette Nechas holds the world’s record for having eaten the most chestnuts at one sitting? David: “Throughout the fleeting years I have kept in close communication with most of them. Sam Ackerman and Sydney Brick own the concessions at Dunn field in Cleveland. Sam Engel is the owner of the Brooklyn team in the American basketball It ague. Maurice: “Phillip Sansone is the world’s greatest sport promoter. Charles: “Oh, by the way, have you read that “Mainbi” owned by Harry Ertman won the Kentucky derby and to go along further in the racing field that most of the pari-mutual machines on the American tracks are controlled by the Cadkin-Bailin-Wasserman and Ivantor Syndicate? Martin: “What line of endeavor engages your interest at present, Mr. Shaffer? Page twenty-seven JOHN ADAMS Maurice: “I’m the owner of an ice factory in New York and Mr. Birn-holtz here is a wizard in figures. I suppose you have heard of David Birnholtz and Stanford Marcus, accountants for my company. Sylvia: “Look, here is a piece in the paper relating the adventures of Elsie Abrams and Miriam Schway, the traveling evangelists who were kidnapped by Japanese bandits. Robert: “Here is an article in “Le Temps” written bv Ruth Maurer, the city manager of Los Angeles, on the advantages of the city Manager plan. Martin: “Do you know that Florence Robejsek is her private secretary (The bell rings) I hope it’s some old friend. Why it’s Elsie Bent Counterman accompanied by her husband, Elmer Counterman! Elmer: Hello—how’s everybody! Robert: Well, if it isn’t the famous basketball coach! How do you like your position at Harvard? Elsie: He certainly enjoys it. Say, folks, do you know that I’ve actually given up singing in public to settle down as a model wife! Sylvia: What a surprise! Do you know what some of the girls who graduated from Adams are doing? Elsie: Florence Koran, Edith Zi-bell, and Carolyn Nyberg are in Zieg-ficld’s “Follies.” Carolyn is married to John Jamison, but will not give up her career and maiden name. Her husband is associated with Robert Facev in importing dill pickles. Elmer: Look what it says here on the sport page! George Petuska has won the British Open Golf Championship, and Tressic Neal was victorious in the singles event of the handball tournament for women. Elsie: Some of the girls are work- ing and teaching at John Adams. Ilona Simko and Warble Schoenbeck are clerking in the office. Mildred Matousek is teaching domestic science. The girl’s physical training department, is directed by Edna Shepherd, Mildred Weller, and Iasta Sebek. Oh, ves—Bernard % Friedlander is in charge of the History Department, and Oscar Tussel vho recently married Eleanor Day, is the football coach. Josephine Bocan is the new assistant principal, since Miss Niebes has resigned. Oh, what a darling hat! Where did you get it, Sylvia ? Sylvia: At the Paris Hat Salon. It is managed by Frances Weber and Ruth Weeton. Their hats are designed by Martha Kolar. By the way, Lillian Baley, Katharine Barry. Ruth Dubrasky and Catherine Dugas are running a beauty parlor here under the name of “Bee Dee Beauty Shoppe.” You can buy such chic shoes at the K and V shoe shop owned and operated by Loretta Krause and Edna Vlk. I just came across the duckiest little candy shoppe the other day; it’s owned by Julia Cervenka and Helen Ciesicki. Elmer: We are planning to build a home in New York when we get back to the “States.” Maurice: Why don’t you build with Philbrick bricks and use Pekarek windows? David Birnholtz: Get Sam Marcus to do your interior decorating, and protect vour home with Tallion-Schwenk-Huttler fire insurance. Charles: Why, this paper is full of new's of the graduates of the John Adams June class of ’27. Here’s an article about the Czerny jewels. There’s an advertisement in the the- Page twenty-eight HOUR GLASS atrical section concerning the “Flying E’s” who are none other than Eleanor Elffers and Wilma Eustes. Sylvia Wasserman and Fannie Peskin are Parisian opera favorites. They buy their gowns at the Gold and Goidberger Style Shop. Here’s some real news: Clover Fortlage has obtained a Paris divorce from Robert Schlaudecker, the famous radio engineer. Robert: In the section devoted to advertising you find advertisements telling of the wonders that Robinson’s Sure Cure for Ailing Toes can perform; also of the Fazio method of securing trim ankles. And have you heard of the Wright way to gain weight ? Martin: Jacob Katz, the Harmonica Wizard, is playing at the “Pari-sienne,” the new theater, which is owned and managed by Jennie Katz and Lillian Fisher. Robert: The paintings in the lobby were done by Helen Votypka and William Geist. David: Some of our old friends have entered the field of science and invention. Sol Kessler with the aid of Bertha Goodman recently won the Satava prize for the most beneficial scientific invention of 1941. Arthur Chatham, Fred Lindow, and Floyd Conway have discovered a way to create a non-puncturable tire. It is to be marketed by the Mike Durck-ansky Co. Ben Hechtman and Abe Krasovitz are engaged in analytical chemical work. It is rumored that they have discovered a missing element. Henrietta Vainer and Mary Vend have discovered a non-break-able toothpick. Elsie: A few of the girls are teaching the art of gracefulness and danc- ing. Among them are Edith Caskey and Yarmilla Dvorak. Sylvia: And the Poskocil, Proch-aska and Praschek school of elocution is located in St. Louis. Maurice: Speaking of old times, are you aware of the fact that Frank Chickering and Walter Cole are now on a farm raising Holstein and Jersey cows? Frank is married to Alma Karber, the famous ballet dancer. Elmer: We came over on the Jun-Long dirigible. It’s run by Edwin Long and Laddie Jun. Laddie is married to May Murphy. On the way over, we were entertained by Emily Koepp Marcia, the recital pianist. She was assisted by Elsie Milota, Harry Levine and Joe Krach-man. Together they formed a unique quartet. A piano, two violins, and an accordian comprised it. Mike Marcia, the famous historian, offered several vocal selections. Sam Vogel, a pharmacist, told some good jokes. We also met Florence Cunnan, Marjorie Fennell, and Marjorie Dlouhv who are all Sunday school teachers. We met John Vargo, the American ambassador to France. Can you imagine that? Marjorie Avery, Marv Price and Blanche Solvith, owners of a smart little tea room in Honolulu, were on board. Miss Solvith remarked that she had read a few interesting books written by Adams graduates. One told how to learn shorthand bv listening to the blatant notes of a French horn. This was written by Minette Alt-Shuler. She gave thanks in the introduction to Molly Carter, Lillian Siegel and Helen Goetz, who assisted her in the preparation of the volume. Another of the books is “How to Make Love” by Oscar Simon. The Page twenty-nine JOHN ADAMS book was dedicated to Abe Skolnick and Myron Phillips. Maurice: Have you read of Hannah Rosenberg’s amazing feat? She crossed Carnegie avenue in Cleveland, Ohio, with the signal against her, and was hit by only forty-seven machines. (The doorbell rings again). Enter Harry and Alice Chevin Grady. Harry: Howdy, folks. Charles: How does it feel to be the bolder of the world’s record for the mile run? Harry: Fine. Won’t you have some of McCaffertv’s Fine Candies? The only solid food I eat while training is Fisher’s Famous Fresh Fish For Athletes. Gussie and Lillian Fisher market it. Alice: People, Margery Swenson is a sensation in vaudeville. She is appearing at the Floyd Conway theatre in Cleveland. She plays two pianos at one time, one with her toes and one with her fingers. Harry: Clarence Kubik and William Verbecky have invented a new type of dictaphone, and Anna Shapiro is a chiropractor. Alice: Can you imagine Molly Yotvitskv a lion tamer in a circus owned and operated bv Josephine Krejko and Nettie Frys? Rebecca Makaroff is their business manager. Sylvia: And can you even think of Jane Pizzi and Ruth Spero being with the nursing department of the American Red Cross? Robert: Well, Charles Lazzaro and Sebastian Lupica are banana specialists and Rudolph Grodt and Phillip Ingagiola are deep sea pearl-divers. Charles: What do you sav to our sponsoring a ’round-the-world cruise for the class of ’27? Sylvia: That’s just what Bob and I were talking about. Maurice: It’s a good plan. Martin: Don’t forget Lillian McKinney and Edna Warren, who are running a girl’s summer camp in Maine. And let’s not leave Laddie Smetana, the real estate broker behind. And do you know that Fred Slama recently won the heavyweight boxing championship of the world? Elsie: Yes, and how about Lillian Cohen, the head of the Math, department at Adams, and Celia Epstein, her assistant. Sylvia Feinberg is a member of the Cleveland Board of Education, while Martha Jaffe and Irma Krumphansl are officers of the Women Voter’s League. Robert: And, last but not least, our old friend, Johnny O’Bell, the very first single president the United States has ever had!

JOURNAL STAFF Editors, managers, reporters, circulation staff—each is an important spoke in the wheel which, turning every two weeks, produces the John Adams Journal. Highly important too are the ones who turn the wheel, Miss Hilda Wood, editorial faculty advisor, and Mr. Harry L. Jordan, business advisor. In publishing the paper, duties are clearly defined. Ruth Maurer, as the editor, oversees generally the editorial and sport pages and has complete charge of the news pages. She is aided by the assistant editors, Katharine Barry, Ellen Chatham, Margaret Davies, Helen Divoky, and Sol Kessler, who read copy and write headlines. George Petuska is sport editor, his second term in this office. Both Ruth and George have received Journal pins, the highest award a member of the Journal staff can receive.

STUDENT COUNCIL The Student Council is the law-making body of the school. It consists of representatives from each homeroom with an Advisory Board composed of representatives of each grade, chosen from the Council as a whole. Although the Student Council lias always played an important part in the school, during the term of February-June, 1927, the importance of the group has increased. The work of the following committees has been much more effective: The Civics, Attendance, Library, Social, Lunchroom, Dance, and “Council Echo.” Some of the outstanding work done by these committees was in connection with the Courtesy Campaign, the Attendance Campaign, and Get Together Party.

SERVICE CLUB Big sisters of the school—that has always typified the Girls’ Service Club of which Miss Lillian Niebes, assistant principal, is the sponsor. Girls in the club act as guards in the lunch, locker, and wash rooms, besides serving as ushers at school entertainments and Commencement exercises. At the beginning of each new term a “Big Sister” party is given for all girls new to the school to make them feel welcome in a strange place and to help them become acquainted.

SMADA CLUB Similar to the Service Club is the boys’ Smada Club which is sponsored by Mr. E. E. Smeltz, assistant principal. The club motto “Pro He Scholae” which, translated from the Latin, means “For The School,” expresses the spirit of the club—service, manhood, ability, dependability, and action. Club members help regulate traffic in the halls and on the stairways, and guard the exists. They also act as ushers when programs are given in the auditorium. Membership is open to all upper grade students who have F or above in all subjects. OFFICERS Franklin Niellie ............. Charles Chase ................ John O’Bell...................

CHEMISTRY CLUB The Chemistry Club was organized in 1925 by Mr. George L. Bush, the present sponsor. It is one of the oldest and best-known clubs in the school. Only the best chemistry students can join as there is a grade requirement of G. At the club meetings the members work out original problems, or experiments which cannot be performed in class periods. The general knowledge of chemistry is thus greatly increased. In order to show the rest of the students interesting things about chemistry, the club gives an exhibition at the end of each term. Here, some of the physical wonders of chemistry are shown. Ben Hechtman . Charlotte Stoltz Abe Krosovitz .

LATIN CLUB Interest in the study of Latin is the only requirement for entrance into the Latin Club, which was started by Miss Emma G. Brelsford in 1925. The club periods are devoted to playing Latin games and solving Latin puzzles. Crossword puzzles in Latin are the most popular. By playing Roman games, the students become more thoroughly acquainted with Roman customs and means of amusement. The latest project of the club is the publishing of a Latin paper, “Mer-curius.” The paper is written almost entirely in Latin. Dora Siegel . . Robert Long .

GYM CAPTAINS’ CLUB The purpose of the Girls’ Gvm Captains’ Club is to improve the moral and physical welfare of the girls. Since its organization in 1923, it has always been outstanding in the school. Members, who must be in or above the tenth grade, referee practically all of the girls’ intra-scholastic games, they are also in charge of track meets, and assist in the teaching of gym classes. At the meetings which are held once a week, the girls learn how to teach dancing and exercises; they get practice in giving marching commands. Social events are plentiful. The club is usually divided into two teams which compete in baseball, basketball, or whatever sport is in season. A yellow middy with a maroon and gold emblem is worn by the club member. Miss Florence Stehn, gym instructor, is the club sponsor.

PHYSICS CLUB To promote greater interest in the study of physics is primarily the object of the Nortcele Physics Club whose membership consists of eleventh and twelfth grade students who have completed the 11B course in physics. During the club period, members give talks on various subjects directly related to physics and afterwards discuss the talks. There is also a meeting in the physics laboratory each Tuesday after school hours. At this time members work out original projects. The Nortcele Club also has on its program visits to industrial plants and at least one party a term. The club was organized in September, 1926, by Mr. H. M.

HOUR GLASS JOHN ADAMS BASKETBALL Coach Edwin L. Kregenow coached his first team to one of the most successful seasons that John Adams has ever seen in basketball. With a total of ten games won and seven lost, the Maroon and Gold outfit proved to be one of the most serious threats in the city. Though they made a bad start the boys on the basketball team atoned for their defeats later on in the season. Especially hard were they on the out-of-town teams, winning a great majority of these games. Cleveland Heights 27 J. Adams 11 Longwood 28 J. Adams 17 .1. Adams 29 Spencerian 21 J.

The intramural sports have also interested the school more than ever. John Adams first golf team composed of Bill Pesek, George Petuska, Steve Ross, and John Vargo easily won the first annual interscholastic tournament at Acacia Golf Links on May 14. They were 27 strokes ahead of Collinwood. their nearest competitor. Captain Phil Greenstein has also led his tennis team to several memorable battles with teams of other schools. Boys9 intramural winners are the following: Soccer. Room 214; basketball. 314, 133, 304. The baseball championship was just being played off when the story went to press. The favorite at that time was Room 303. The boys boxing champs are: Heavyweight.

The final game of the season, which as usual was the battle with South, brought out the full strength of the team. In that game Captain Oscar Tussel pulled down George Mandula’s fling to fall over the line. However, South saved the game in the second half when they also crossed the goal line, the game ending at 6-6 tie. Coach Anthony R. Fiorette, who took up the work as coach when Mr. Newman, the former coach, was transferred to West Commerce, is looking to this year’s squad for a successful season. Captain-elect John Hindulak and his charges fared excellently in the spring practice games. Their most outstanding work was their victory over the strong Cleveland Heights team and their tie game with East Tech.

They were called “Seniors.” These Seniors were very foolish, so one day they all de-ci-ded to dress up like little boys and girls. When the day came, which they called Scn-ior Distinc-tion Day, they all put on pink and blue rom-pcrs and brought lolli-pops and dol-lies and ted-dy bears and bal-loons and all kinds of nice things. v One teach-er was very hun-grv. This teacher’s name was Mr. Oscar P. Schneider. He was very, very hungry, so he asked: “Who will let me have a lick of his lolli-pop?” “I won’t,” said Rob Long. “I won’t,” said Mike Mar-cia. “I won’t,” said Con-nie. “Then I will,” said Johnny O’Bell.

But Mr. Os-car Schnei-der was still very, very hungry, so he went to the girls. “Who will give me a bite of choc-o-late?” he asked. “I won’t,” said E-mi-ly Koepp. “I won’t,” said Fran-ces We-ber. “I won’t,” said Sylvia Lupson. “Then I will,” said Edna Shepherd. And she did. But this teacher had an im-mense ap-pe-tite, and he was just as hun-gry as be-fore. He asked many boys and girls to give him some candy and all he got was two wee-ny lit-tle lem-on drops. He be-came very an-gry. He asked all the Sen-ior teachers to come to him. “Who will punish these bad boys and girls?” he asked. “I will,” said Miss Lou-ise Knirk. “I will,” said Miss Lil-li-an Maiden. “I will,” said Mrs. Dorothy Whitten. “I will,” said Mr. George Bush. “No, you won’t,” said Mr. Os-car Schnei-der. “I will.” And he did.

He sauntered down his old clay pipe And calmly smoked the lane; He mopped the roses from his face, And sniffed at fragrant rain. He sunned himself on moonlit nights And swam through waves of hair; He dropped gum wrappers in the box, And threw away his fare. He scratched his breakfast pancakes. Poured the syrup down his back; Waited for the train at a piece of string, Tried to tie a railroad track. He wrung his hair and tore his hands, He even combed his shoes; Placed his bets on the Caucasian race, Danced the minuet to the “blues.” ; llllir3IIIIIIIIIIIIC3lllllllllllinilllllllllllC3llllllllllllC2lllllllllllinilllllllllllC3IIIIIIIIIIIIUIIIBIIIIUIIIIIIIIIIIIC3IIIIIIIIIIIIC2IIIIIIIIIIIIC3!llllllllllimillllllllllC3IIIIIIIIIIIIC2llllllllllimillll� ‘ SPENCERIAN SCHOOL OF COMMERCE, ACCOUNTS AND FINANCE An army of students, 58,000, have attended the Spencerian School during the 79 years it has been training young men and women.

THOMAS j FUNERAL DIRECTOR ! INVALID CAR SERVICE—Any Time—Anywhere a 5 12512 Miles Avenue DO YOU KNOW HIM? He is very popular with his fellow students (especially when he tries to get ahead of them in the lunch time). He is continually in demand (at the office). He tells his mother that he is so rushed (writing reports and outlines at the last minute) that he just can’t get home before 4:30 in the afternoon. (Ninth period study halls do keep one in school quite late.) The teachers all know him (too well), and they are always asking him to come and see them. (“Just come up to my room sometime today when you have a free period. I’d like to have a confidential talk with you.”) He is very learned and can offhandedly discuss such subjects as the transforma- tion of the idiospherotheca into the sper-miocalyptrocheca or the relation of tetramethyldiamitatriphenalmethane to sodium hyposulfite and potassium thio-molybdate. He drives a car (his father’s), and he’s such a marvelous dancer that he has no trouble at all in getting a girl to dance (with someone else). He has at various times held high positions in the school (although Mr. Mason nabbed him nearly every time he was out on the roof), and he is now the treasurer of his club. (Did you see his new suit?) He is very sophisticated (he has just started to read “Elmer Gantry”). In other words, he’s a SENIOR!
