CLASS POEM 1 When you were starting in the grades, And just a little tot, The highest grade to be attained Was just the eighth, you thought. The students in the grades above Seemed big to you— It never seemed, when you were small, That soon you would be through! But through it is, and here we are! Those years are all behind; The life that stretches forward now, Goes out among mankind. Each day that we have spent in school Is like a building block, If each is strong, our building, too, Will solid be, as rock. We aren’t so big, we’re finding now, But each and every one, We’re unafraid and dauntless yet To face the road begun. I know not what we will become, Classmates of ’38; There may be those among us now, Who someday will be great! But as we onward wing our way To unknown heights, and far, The memories of L. H. S. Will guide us like a star. Carolyn Metcalf.

The struggle for existence proved trying perhaps to this horde of bar- barians, but they were determined not to be found wanting. The institution being under a new supervisor, we were not the only ones who anticipated several changes in the laws. However, all thoughts of an uprising were quickly dissembled and the majority applied themselves in earnest. After an unusually long time we were permitted to hold an election. The results were: Dick Reed, President; Helen Hummel, Vice-President; Harry Evans, Secretary; and Ruth Snider, Treasurer. Apparently our class was not prejudiced to women in government. After watching the upper classes having a good time, we were finally permitted to have a real party in the L. H. S. Gym where bingo and cards were enjoyed until later in the evening when we were served lunch in the cafeteria. Chocolate milk was served but not for its nourishing qualities. A Wiener Roast in Rising Park at the end of the year completed our social and scholastic affairs. Next fall again found us entering the portals of our hill-top school house to a shorter working day. However, no change was expected in salary. Government officials chosen for the year were Harry Evans, Bill Smith Margery Smith, and Donald Dunkle. Margery and Bill soon proved their worth—newcomers from the East last year, the student body was not long in taking them to heart. A hay ride was our first brawl. We all forgot our manners and rode down to Crystal Springs in trucks. A grand time was enjoyed by all, even if we did leave a trail of straw from high-school to Crystal Springs. Later we had a dance at Avondale and for the first time as a class donned our party clothes to step out to something big. A drive to raise one thousand dollars for new band equipment was put on this year and while our class was not permitted to sell, we all proudly wore the yellow tags which donated our loyalty. These days we all marched dizzily along to the strains of “The Music Goes ’Round and ’Round” with Marian Beck in the front line. Along the middle of March, gales of laughter were heard when George and Dave—Mr. Campbell and his pianist, entertained us. They told members of our class they must be on the shelf because they were sitting in the balcony. That is one Assembly we will never forget. Time marches on. Our sophomore year quickly ended, there was the usual welcome interlude otherwise known as a vacation and then we found ourselves to be members of that well known class, often called the jolliest in school. Ours was no exception. Not even the thoughts and odors of Chemistry dampened our gaiety. Officers were Harry Evans, Marie Helrich, Charles Moler, and Donald Dunkle. The members of our go-getting class thought it would be a treat for us to jump in a bus and all go out to a country school house. This just helps to show how fond we all are of school. Even when it is not required, we like the atmosphere so well that we chose it for a party. Just to prove that we were original, instead of having a regular play, we again tossed off the robes of tradition and presented a trial. It turned out differently than was expected though, and instead of being a huge success, proved for many just what it was—a trial. Many of us attended Senior Night, Bacculaurcate, and Commencement for the first time to see how everything was carried out. It was a sobering realization that next was our turn. Then the final summer vacation for many. Because it was the last, it passed as if with wings. Then we came back to the highest order, the Golden Era. No longer would we look up to a higher class for we were on the very top. Neverthe- CLASS IIISTO less, there was no feeling of elevation that we always thought a senior must know. We might have been freshmen but for one thing—the poise and dignity that we had acquired because of old and familiar surroundings. Officers were Harry Evans. Jim Cole, Charles Moler, and Donald Dunkle. Being senior president seemed like a big job for Harry Evans, but then look at Napoleon! The Senior Kid Party was our initial affair. Short sox and organdy bows were the characteristic costumes, and several seniors were suspected of hav- ing sticky faces due to improper placing of lollipops. School officials were very liberal this year at Christmas time, and much to the surprise and delight of everyone, school was dismissed two days ahead of the time previously announced. After Christmas the months literally flew. Soon spring had come and with it the thousand and one things that are the lot of every senior. The Senior Scholarship and District Scholarship Tests comprised our last and best efforts to display our knowledge and skill in high school. The Senior play was a bang up success, and social activities provided a con- stant round of entertainment. The Junior Prom, Junior-Senior Banquet, Senior Ball, Senior Night, and Baccalaureate all finally became just lovely never to be forgotten memories. Commencement on June 2, the unbelievable yet real climax. The first big step in our lives, a forerunner of good things to come. And thus, with a fond goodbye, the final curtain falls on the Class of ’38. WILL The Last Will and Testament of the Class of 1938 Be it remembered that we the unrivaled Senior Class of Lancaster High School, Lancaster, Ohio, being of sound mind and memory and knowing the uncertainty of this life do make this our last will and testament, hereby revoking all former wills by us at any time heretofore made. After all the payments of our many debts, we bequeath as follows: Section I. To the student body of Lancaster High School, our unparalled obed- ience to the rules and regulations of this learned institution, and our cooperation as a class. Section II.

To the Freshmen, three more years of this stuff they call education. Section VI.

CLASS PItOPII Year—1965 Month—June Date—1 As the old C. and O. engine came puffing into the Lancaster station and chugged to a groaning stop by the old red tile building, a swarthy and handsome gentleman stepped from the last car and looked about him. The station agent looked up and suddenly gave a cry of delight as he recognized the man in the plaid spring topcoat. “Harry Evans, you old bum,” he roared. Welcome back to the old home town!” Harry recognized William B. Wilson and heartily shook hands with him. They chatted for a moment and then Mr. Evans walked to a waiting taxi. “Hello boozer,” called the driver as he got in the rear seat. He answered in a like manner when he recognized Shelby Anders. As the cab spun through the quiet tree arched streets and stopped before the Hotel Vienna” Harry noticed that the old town hadn’t changed much. As he entered the door, he was greeted by the clerk, Charles Moler, and they were glad to see each other. While they were talking over old times, Dean Bainter barged through the door followed by some ungodly-animal, (not his wife) calling for service. The two men recognized Mr. Bainter, the great fossil hunter. He said he had just returned from an expedition on the Orinoco. The two men were shown to their rooms by the bellboy, Raymond Touvell. They stopped at the cigar counter and purchased a few El Ropos from the cigarette girl, Lorena Weaver. They took the elevator up to the fourth floor and Dan Chilcote, who had been running the elevator for ten years, still missed the stop by about a foot. As they stepped from the elevator, they bumped into Dick Westhoven, the champion swim- mer of the world, who was convalescing after a bad dive into an empty swimming pool. Meanwhile on the street below, we find Dick Crumley and Raymond Whitely arguing over the bean tax. A flashy powerful Austin came tearing up to the curb and Bill Smith crawled out and started down the Main Street for the five and ten-cents store when he met Leo Baughman. The two of them were both selling Fuller brushes and tried to give each other a demonstration. Bill Smith finally freed himself and entered the five and ten cents store. He purchased a tooth brush from Marcella Pugh and chattered a moment with the floor walker, Ralph DeLong. Before leaving he purchased some candy from Mary Crutcher. When he returned to his car, he found John Cunning- ham of the local police force towering over his Austin. It seems Bill Smith forgot to deposit a nickel in the parking meter. The next day another celebrity decended from the old C. and O. train. The tall bronze giant strode swiftly toward a powerful car, waiting in the drive. Howdy Mr. Clawson,” said the chauffer, Robert Barnes.” Where to?” Home and step on it.” “Very good, sir,” said the chauffer and the big car sped toward the Clawson residence. The great electrical wizard seemed rather worried but concealed well his emotions. He was to attend a board of directors meeting to decide the financial end of his next experiment. The board consisted of Irvin Dunington, Robert Bal- thaser, Velma Corbin and Alma Mae Clark, all of the “Tootsie Trootie Chewing Gum Company. The objective was a new electrical cure for tobacco. While Mr. Clawson attended to business, many town folk were en route to a circus that had arrived in town. Bud Bauer, the tumbling clown, and Richard Bigham, the world’s heavy weight champion wrestler were among the attractions. Leinard Grimm was also starred with his troupe of trained fleas. William Metcalf, the chief of police was on hand to help direct traffic. Janet Mallory and Carolyn Metcalf, who were home over the week-end from New York, New York were seen in the crowd. Elaine Poulas, the wild animal tamer was in- terviewed by newspapermen. Elmer Linehan and Leroy Julian. The city judge, btan Knotts, came into the big top, eating peanuts and took a special reserved seat. Councilman Robert Holtz followed Judge Knotts and sat beside him. Marie Helnch, a daring bare back rider, came out into the center ring on a large white horse. She was dressed in pink tights and was applauded loudly by the audience. Charles Shumaker’s German-band really went to town and Francis Tipple accompanied them with that old favorite the Dipsy Doodle.” John Evans, the vat P?ii 5h r Tho on.ce said, Every man has his girl but the ice man has his Ki.. med to enjoying the monkeys. Miss Virginia Graf and Howard SSS?1ua t lIh,ng .sP£?tacle on the high trapeze. Miles Contosta and Harold England of the Jackpot Slot Machine Company entered and played a PIKOPNM Y slot machine and kicked like the duce when they got gyped but seemed satisfied when they recognized the machine to be one of theirs. Marjorie Crooks, Constance Corwin and Maratha Behrens, who worked in the office of the Dead End Glass Company were noticed arriving late but were in time to hear Mr. Benson Smith, the modern Padereweski and Mr. Kenneth Ewing of the Metropolitan Laundry entertain. They did a selection from one of Mr. Reed’s latest operas. After the performance, traffic was blocked by an old contraption of some kind and on getting a better view, one saw the old Model T.-Ford owned by Kermit Kennedy, of the great National Antique Society. Further on a group of housewives, Maybelle Kane, Margaret Henry and Cora Mae Ingwire also blocked traffic as they ran over the highlights of the city's latest scandal. Now as evening settles on the seething little community, we will look in on one of our prominent citizen’s home as the radio is playing and we enter just in time to hear some late newsflashes: It seems Vernon Robinson had just set another record for the 220 yard dash. Virginia Mithoff, a prominent hostess of a night club, was being sued for mix- ing her bombshell special too strong and Norman Stump, the announcer, signs off, leaving this bit of advertisement singing in our ears, Remember Don Mace’s “Red Whiskey is still the best cure for the blues and suddenly sweet strains of music drifted from the radio and the television screen became a flood of color as the Nonskidlipstick” program came on the air. Sweet is the Word for You,” the theme song of William Taylor's orchestra seemed enchantingly beautiful that June even- ing. Then Don Dunkle, the old “Friday Nighter took the mike and announced the 160th program of the new series and gave a review of the features of the evening. Madame Dolores Hummel will play (be quoted) one of her own piano arrangements. Eileen Fisher, Aunt Eileen of the William Glei’s Children Hour, will be interviewed by radio’s sports editor, Dick Scott and Wayne Redd, a prominent mouse trap manu- facturer, will tell you how they work. Also the very funny comedian, Creed Musser, will review some old jokes. The program was doing very well until Mary Louise Ritter tried to hit a high note and blew a fuse. About this time, we find Joe Schmelzer returning home after a hard days work at his grocery store and James Cole just going home after a hard day at home. The next morning one of the local papers came out with amazing headlines: Senator Metty Passes Temperance Movement.” It stated that stores selling liquors must be 300 feet from churches. The government gave the churches three days to move. As Katherine Anderson came out of Azbell’s (Helen Azbell) pet shop, she stopped and bought a paper from Don Nash’s news stand and was shocked by the headlines. She called a meeting of the head of the Ladies Aid Society, con- sisting of Eloise Bateson, Vivian Bixler, Marion Bowsher and Iona Buchanan. The rest of Main Street was busy with the hum of voices and bustling of people. Ireta Butler was just going into the bank, owned by Richard Wentz, to lend him some money. Florence Conrad was just entering Poling’s Bakery Shop (Bob Poling) and Veloa Clark was going to her employers office, George Tobin, who is a lawyer. Ruth Cochran was just entering Yeazel’s (Eric Leazel) Drug Store, where she made cokes and Mary Florence Eveland was also enroute to the drug store but she did not make cokes; she made sodas. Mr. Luther Palen had the nerve to build another theatre and put it on Broad Street. Clark Miller and William Miller, who are manufacturers of soap said, they always liked to see Saturday night come around. Don White and Wallace Williams, two more policemen go out early to collect quar- ters out of the parking meters. In two more years they will have knocked down enough off the city to buy themselves a car. Carl Binkley, a mechanic, stepped from his car to get some auto parts in the five and ten cent store. Jack Conrad, a local night club bouncer, was just getting home in the morning. Leroy Burton had just returned from Hollywood where he had just finished another picture, “Shall We Dance?” John and Robert Bradford, who were going strong in pro-football, were in town for the week-end. Also James Clover, the governor of Ohio was home for a few day’s rest after a big trial. His secretary, Mary Jane Anderson, was really responsible for the trouble. The idea of oriental perfume at $5,000 a bottle. The question was it is for Mr. Clover or Miss Anderson. Mrs. Clover, Marian Beck, was very much vexed with her husband. Frieda Pabst finally got in her Blue Ribbon business. George Mohler, now head of the National Junk Company, was also back after a trip to Alaska. Bob Sherberne, the leading poet of the century, writes such beautiful poems such as this: Before the doctors told me, The danger of a kiss, I had considered kissing you, The nearest thing to bliss. CLASS PROPH But now I know biology. And sit and sigh and moan, Six million mad bacteria, And I thought we were alone. Mayor Herbert Poling, that same day at 4 P. M., turned the switch that started the new sewage disposal system working. Well we finally got that in. Clara Louise Rogers, Harold Moore, Mary Margaret Poling of the state legislature were appealing for a bigger tax on water. The money, they said, would be used to build a bungalow in the Sahara Desert for the Senators who voted dry. Marjorie Sowers, the gypsy of the screen, was also in town. She was trying to get everyones autograph. the new football coach of L. H. S. had just returned from Florida. Naomi Langley was starting out on a hike with a lovely group of Campfire girls. Doris Kuhn and Dorothy Kauffman were out of the country studying music. Betty Johnson and Helen Holstein and Louise Good- year had just graduated from College and were going to start teaching biology, history and English, respectively. Earl Long, L. H. S,’s thirty-three year man, has finally graduated and thinks if he would live to be a hundred, it might pay him to go to college. The quiet afternoon was suddenly interrupted by a big caravan of trucks. Betty England, who had been in Africa hunting Tarzan, was back. With her was Jeanne Hamilton, who had been hunting Tarzan’s son. Dorothy Morgan had just come back from her missionary work in the jungles. Annabel Ety, who was head of the Zoo board and gratefully thanked the latter for the animals she had brought back home with her. Carol Bigham, who also was on an expedition, wrote a beau- tiful roamnce on jungle love. That evening Madame Emily Strickler gave a big dinner party. All the society of the country was to be there. The Countess Resovistkski (Katie Blosser) was the guest of Dorothy Claypool head of the Women’s National Sewing Society, also attended. Harold Mowery, now a fertilizer manager was also to come but he would not represent his business. Dona Mary Poling, who married the Prince of Wales, was giving a theatre party after the dinner was over and all the guests were invited. The show was one of Robert Funk’s latest musical comedies, “Come and Get It. The stars of the show was that great lover, Donald Thrush and Oleda Redefer played opposite him with a dancing part. Gerald Woodgeard’s swing band was quite a hit also. The picture, all in color, was beautiful. The art directors, Virginia Harvey and Vera Skiver, did a very nice job. At the theatre were some of the popular persons of Lancaster; Betty Snyder, Katherine Newman and Betty Perry of the “Humane Society for Dumb Animals and Feeble Minded Persons, were there. The newsreel proved of much interest. The Supreme Court was reviewed by Madge Trout, the Nation’s style expert—George Litteral, the chief justice, had just grown a lovely beard. Robert Hartman, Mary Griffith and Helen Frazier were still against the New Deal. Virginia Gardner, Rose Kindler, June Widener and Wilma Wilkins were for what was left of the New Deal. William Williams, the little big man of the court, was absent from the picture. They say he is awfully shy. Alice Wolfe and Virginia Wells, of the U. S. Bureau of Printing, were there. The government accused them of printing counterfeit bills in the Senate. Alice Wagner and Virginia Walker had just produced a new color of pansy. Mary Jane Rife, the country’s champion ping pong player, illustrated her Australian cork screw serve. But when I found out there wasn’t any Mickey Mouse Comedy, I got up and left.

H. S. this year. Kerns—Howard, who play- ed the position of end. was a heavy fighter and es- pecially adept at breaking up opponent’s plays and will be relied upon much next year. Perrigo—Louis, a quarter- back. passed and ran to good advantage. His promises for the future are good. Conrad—Jack, a Senior, was a valuable man as he could handle the tackle and guard posts with equal ability. Grandstaff—Robert, as he played the position of half-back well, made his promises for the future good. Littrell—George, a depend- able guard, played good football both offensive and defensive. His fine work will be missed next year. Acton—Dick, who by his powerful plunges added many yards, is a sterling offensive full-back. Being a Sopho more, he will prove a valuable asset in the coming year. Bope—Ben. played his posi- tion of center very well and will no doubt be an important factor in the success of the team next year. Wright—F red, a Senior, whose greatest assets are kicking and passing, is one of the best kickers ever developed at L. H. S. He played the position of end and will be hard to replace next year. Bradford—Bob, co-captain, was on the side line for several games because of an injury suffered in the Steubenville game. One of the touchdown twins, he played well the position of half-back. He closes his Bradford—John, co-captain, and one of the touchdown twins, played the position of half-back. He was a valuable man and will be missed greatly next fall. IO OT HA Clover—James, a hard-hit- ting tackle, was stopped but slightly by injuries to his hand. Another good and valuable man lost to the team through gradu- tion. Julian—Leroy, a small but mighty guard, played his position like a true tor- nado. The Purple and Gold loses him this year. Williams—Wallace, was a dependable end and will be hard to replace next year. Dunkle—Don, as a guard, was adept at breaking through the line. He will be a hard man to replace next year. Yenrick—James, an effi- cient center, stopped many drives through his section of the line. He will be an important factor in next year’s team. Ramsey — Harold, a half- back, was out early in the season because of three broken fingers. He will be back next year to tear the turf for the tornadoes. Stevens—J a c k, a Junior, made a good end and stop- ped many drives through his section of the line. McClintock—Don, a speedy quarter back and good blocker, has two years ahead of him in which to prove his merit. Anderson—Bill, who play- ed tackle, will be one of the most eligible for that position next fall. Nash—Don, was on the bench early in the season because of a broken col- larbone. He was a guard and a very loyal man. Graduation ends his fine aid. Cole—Jim, co-captain, and one of the finest tackles the Purple and Gold has ever had .ended his play- ing career at L. H. S. this year much to the regret of all. Opening the 1938 season with a night game. September 17th, Lancaster defeated New Lexington by a score of 41-0. The first points of the season were scored by Bob Bradford. Dick Acton, with many spectacular plays, lead the Lancaster attack, making a total of 19 points. Kerns made two touchdowns and Wright added four points. Lancaster's play was good in every department, especially the ball carrying. On September 24th ,we were victorious over Jackson, 13-0. The Purple and Gold line received much commendation for the manner in which it held back the thrusts of the Jackson ball carriers. Steubenville handed the Purple and Gold it’s first defeat to the tune of 13-0 in a night encounter at Steubenville, October 1st. The game was closely contested and well played throughout but the Steubenville line proved to be impregnable. The Tornadoes suffered a severe loss by an injury to Ramsey, who broke three fingers, causing him to be on the sidelines quite a while. Threatened every moment by a dazzling passing attack, the Golden Tornadoes were forced to the very limit to bring a 14 to 6 victory over Logan's stubborn and scrappy eleven. By splendid playing cn the part of all, Kerns made a touchdown in the first four minutes. A second touchdown was made early in the third period by McClintock who rushed 51 yards unmolested for the score. Wright added 2 points by kicks. McClintock carried the entire burden of the Lancaster attack in the first half. His pass defense alone saved Lancaster three Logan scores. Jim Cole, Don Nash and Mickey Clover were outstanding on the line. Nash suffered a broken collarbone which caused him to sit on the bench the rest of the season. The Purple and Gold travelled to Newark the afternoon of October 18th, for a 13-0 defeat. The line was greatly weakened by former injuries to Nash and Ramsey, which prevented them from playing. Clover sustained a wrenched hand and McClintock received injuries to his knee, but both are expected to be able to play in the next game. On a rain-swept gridiron the Bradford twins led the Tornadoes to a 15-2 victory over Zanesville, October 22nd. A new star came into the limelight in Jack Conrad. He, teaming with Jim Cole, formed the bulwark of the Purple line. John Bradford made the first touchdown in the second period. Lancaster scored it’s 15 points on two touchdowns, a point after touchdown and a safety. On October 29th the Lancaster eleven dropped a 13-7 decision to Marietta, who played on home ground. In the second period Bob Bradford made a touchdown and Wright’s placement for conversion was perfect. The contest was extremely hard from start to finish with neither team holding a decided advantage at any time. On November 6th, the Purple and Gold journeyed to Cambridge for a 28-12 victory. Wright showed himself to be of true caliber in this game, his educated toe and elusive running spelling defeat for Cambridge. The Purple and Gold, playing on home ground, took Coshocton for a 10-0 vic- tory, November 17th. The Coshocton eleven were within threatening distance of the goal line on several occasions, however the Tornado defense braced and held. On Thanksgiving afternoon 600 Lancaster fans journeyed through the snow to Chillicothe for the last game of the season. The game was featured by hard blocking and tackling, however it was free of roughness and infractions of the rules. The Purple eleven put up a gallant fight, especially in the last half, but were unable to score and returned home with a 17-0 defeat.

Wright, Fred—He proved worthy of his position as guard and helped to run up our score on many oc- casions, dropping long shots from the middle of the floor. He closes his basketball career at L. H. S. this year. Kiser, Ray — He is the Sophomore phenomenon who come into the lime- light as center. He will help form the nucleus of next year’s team. Shumaker, Charles — He played the position of cen- ter and will be sorely missed next year. His long shots thrilled the spectators as well as help- ed to increase our score. Linehan, Elmer—As a for- ward, he showed us he had scrap and always played a hard game. Graduation ends his fine aid. Anderson, Bill—He will be an asset to the team next year, since he showed great form on the floor and proved to be a val- uable man. Grundtisch, Howard — He was captain of his team and played the position of forward. He carried out an envi able reputation through three years of Varsity playing. His place will be hard to fill next year. BASKETSA Mohler, Charles — Chuck played a consistent game as forward. He will be lost to the team through grad- uation. Bradford, Bob — His cool, steady work on the floor, as a guard, made him one of the best liked players. His position will be hard to fill next year. Evans. Harry—An outstand- ing member of the Senior class, he played the posi- tion of forward. Though small in size, he made up for it in speed and clever- ness and will be hard to replace next year. Stratten, Bob—As a guard, he went through the seas- on with a reputation for good defensive playing. He will be a valuable as- set to the team next year. Kerns, Howard—As a guard, he punctured the season’s record with a brilliancy of play gained by hard work on the practice floor. He is depended upon to be one of the mainstays for next year’s team. Ramsey, Harold—He stood out as a fine forward be- cause of his good offen- sive ability. Since he is a Junior, he will help mould a more perfect team next year. IOOL M) (,S ALMA MATER O Lancaster.

We will try to give you a week by week description of our school activi- ties as time marches on. Sept. 7-10 School opens and everyone is glad to see their old friends and to welcome the Freshies.” It’s funny how essential the “gift of gab” is and it’s certainly stressed once again in our shining halls. We hear the plans for the fair are big- ger and better than ever. Sept. 13-18 It feels swell to get back in full swing of things. These Freshmen roaming about our huge structure are O. K. Our football team is getting into train- ing for the coming season and it warmed up by beating New Lexington 40 to 0. Sept. 20-24. The mercury has risen after a recent decline and we still go to school with our spring clothes on. The new build- ing is coming along fine—“Rite pert lookin there.” Eighteen hundred fans watched Lancaster stars” dash through Jackson’s line to a 13 to 0 victory. Sept. 27-Oct. 1 Lancaster fell when mighty Stuben- ville beat us 13 to 0 but only after putting up a hard fight. The Freshmen decided to display their talents in as- sembly and the audience was very much pleased. The Senior Class offi- cers were elected with Harry Evans presiding as president. Oct. 4-8 The Junior Class elections were held choosing Warren Smith as president. Another big game this week with quite C A L E I¥ I a few of our students going down to Logan to help. The team won 14 to 6. For assembly Reverend Randolph gave us an interesting talk, using Courage” as his topic. Oct. 11-15 The fair opens this week and we get three days vacation. That’s one nice thing about school—the vacations. The team was defeated 13 to 0 at Newark. Too bad boys! Mr. Crooks announced the basketball schedule, which takes in nineteen games. Oct. 18-22 The Sophomores held their elec- tions and chose Dick Acton as presi- dent. Mr. Miller seems to be having trouble with his frogs. The team meT and defeated Zanesville 15 to 2. Oct. 25-29 This was rather a hectic week for L. H. S. First we got our grade cards, whether we wanted them or not. We lost our game with Marietta, 13 to 7 but the most deplorable thing of all is that the L. H. S. pupils will not be able to ride our beautiful street cars, for the little trolleys that put Lancas- ter cn the map and in the Passing Show made their last trip today. Now bright new shiny buses take their place but the fare still remains five cents. Nov. 1-5 Halloween is over and it is believed that not much damage was done. They say that the Seniors and boys out of high school do all the dirty work. The annual Amateur Night proved to be a success once again. Friday saw a holiday for pupils while teachers went . E N 1 A II to Dayton. The team played Cam- bridge and succeeded in defeating their opponents 28 to 12. Nov. 8-12 Japan captured Shanghai nineteen years ago on Nov. 11, but Lancaster, without guns, defeated Coshocton in a friendly battle, 10 to 0. As for an as- sembly program, a very interesting Chinaman, Dr. Koo, talked to us about conditions in his native land in rela- tion to the rest of the world. He held the student body spellbound and ex- tremely delighted with queer strange music played through a hollow tube. The Senior class, to top the week, had a strictly Senior Kid-Party at Hickory Point Schoolhouse. More fun! More lollipops! Nov. 15-19 The Freshman class held its election and elected Kenneth Kerr as president. Dr. Richard Hertz of Hamburg, Ger- many, gave an interesting address rel- ative to world cooperation. Nov. 22-26 Thanksgiving this week and a big vacation! Chillicothe defeated Lancas- ter 17 to 0 in the annual Thanksgiving game. Also Santa Claus has sent the children of Lancaster an aerogram via the “local gab sheet. Nov. 29-Dec. 3 The Civics class started a financial campaign to procure for the school a shrine of the Constitution. We receiv- ed our grade cards again but they only made us wish we were almost five years older. The gym was full this Friday with the student group when entertained by the basket ball squad. The Juniors threw a dance at Avon- dale Inn and Mary Behrens nearly passed out when the band hesitated to show up. Dec. 6-10 Cold weather has set in. Miss Hub- bard of the Y. W. C. A. took us for a journey through Turkey and surround- ing countries, pointing out and telling us about numerous Girl Reserve Camps. Lancaster lost her first basket- ball game 22 to 28 to Bexley but beat Findlay 32 to 16. Jim Cole was named our all Ohio tackle from the football squad. Dec. 13-17 Temperature dropped to 5° below when a cold wave hit Lancaster. The Panay meets with disaster in China waters. Mr. Pratt was very vexed by the impending situation and wonders— Should we fight? The team fell into Columbus Central’s net 20 to 30. Dec. 20-24 Vacation starts the 22nd thanks to the Board of Education! The Purple Pep- per staff arranged a very lovely little Christmas edition. The choir, all decked out in their new red and ivory robes, gave us a very impressive as- sembly program. Dec. 27-31 Still no school. The team goes to Delaware to be defeated 21 to 28. Jan. 1. 1938 New Years Day and Father Time chalk up another year. Many things come and go but school hasn’t gone yet Jan. 3-7 Back to school with nothing to do— much. The Civics class under Mr. Smart’s supervision finally obtained their shrine of the Constitution and Dorothy Goodman presented it to the school. Jan. 10-14 St. Marys fell to our bitter onslaught and the final score was 26-23. Chemis- try class right now is in the middle of sulDhur “experiments” and the school smells like one big rotten egg! We won the basketball game with Marietta, 20 to 16. Mr. Deffenbaugh spoke on tem- perance today in assembly. Take heed ye old soaks! Jan. 17-21 Grade cards again, and this time most of us were pretty anxious to see how we were getting along. The assembly program consisted of a musical opera and our own Mr. Keller was in the cast. The game with Cambridge was lost by a score of 22 to 31. There was a dance after the game and it went over nicely. We lost the Granville C A I, E N game 25 to 28. Jan. 31-Feb. 4 The Dramatics Club play, “Ice- bound,” was a great success. The Thrift Club held a barn dance at Hick- ory Pt. Schoolhouse. The Coshocton game turned out 27 to 36 in favor of Coshocton. Feb. 7-11 The French Club had a party with refreshments—Imagine! Kenneth Ew- ing and the speech class entertained us in assembly period. We won the Marietta game 39 to 34 but lost the Newark game 24 to 50. Feb. 14-18 Valentine’s day but it seems as though our high school is too modern for such an old fashioned thing— sometimes we wonder! Our team play- ed St. Marys and once again came out on top (38 to 25). We also won the Zanesville game 31 to 25. Mr. Wenger put up a Keep off of the Grass sign. County tournaments started in the gym. We had the ultimate misfortune to loose the Logan game. Feb. 21-25. George Washington’s birthday and no school. Why weren’t there more men like George! The boys’ glee club, a new organization at Lancaster High, entertained us musically and Mr. Met- calf talked to us about the “snake line. The outcome of the Cambridge game was 24 to 36. Cambridge’s vic- tory. Feb. 30-March 4 The Juniors messed up our pretty sidewalks a little. Poor little babies! The orchestra turned modern in as- sembly program and did a very nice job on, “There’s a New Moon Over the Mill.” March 7-11 Mr. Wenger just returned from his trip and seemed to enjoy himself im- mensly. Another snow and in March to beat! Mr. Wenger announced that the school would try to purchase a $500 sound motion picture machine. A love- ly group of Freshmen girls entertained us in Assembly today with a clever puppet show, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs.” And can you imagine— we really sang a swing song in assemb- ly— Whistle While You Work. March 14-18 Tickets for the Senior play, “Skid- ding are on sale and in Assembly a few sketches of the play were given. By the looks of things it may be a good play. Also the girls glee club, directed by Mr. Keller, sang very nicely. The Senior play was a huge success. March 21-25 Open house this week and everybody seems to be dressing up somewhat. (It is really amusing to watch the teacher show off in front of our parents!) March 20-April 1 April Fool’s Day with the Senior scholarship test following close com- posing the joke. ‘Tain’t funny McGee!” April 4-8 Our Senior class is proud to have four of its members make places in the first ten of the scholarship test. They were second, third, four and seventh. May 2-6 Track preliminaries and the light opera “Pinafore composed the events of the week. It seems as though sum- mer is coming along rather fast. May 9-13 The style show and art exhibition brought many visitors to our school. The Junior play proved very interest- ing. May 16-20 The Senior Ball and the Junior and Senior Banquet furnished us with a truly delightful evening. May 23-27 Class night, a lovely event, was en- joyed by everyone. Final exams have started. They would have to bring up something like this! May 30-June 4 Baccalaureate and Commencement— they certainly are rushing us Seniors. School's out and now there’s nothing to do and everybody is happy but the Seniors. Maybe our annual school pic- nic will cheer them up a little.

S. A. suddenly went haywire. He had the wild notion to dig for gold . The case (practically hopeless) was com- mitted to one of our popular insane hospitals. He was allowed to roam the grounds and dig at will. One day a trustee found him digging in the middle of the road. The trustee asked him what he was doing and received the reply, Digging for gold.” Well,” said the attendant, “you’re digging in the right place.” As he turn- ed to go the inmate said, Is zat so? Then you dig, you’re crazier than I am.” To the Automobile Dealers of America 23rd Psalm The fliver is my car. I shall not want another. It maketh me lie down in wet places. It soileth my clothes; it leadeth me into deep waters. It lead- eth me into paths of ridicule for its name sake; it prepareth me for a breakdown in the presence of mine enemies. Yea, though I run through the valley I am towed up the hill. I fear great evil when it’s with me; its rods and its engine discomfort me. It annointeth my face with oils, its tank runneth over. Surely to goodness of the thing follows me all the days of my life I shall dwell in the house of the insane forever. They’re hidden sitting in the swing in the moonlight alone.
