That scholars are heir to,— 'tis a consumation Devoutly to be wish'd. To quit? Perchance to work; ay, there's the rub; To wash, to iron, to sweep and maybe scrub. For even in our long vacation, We sometimes work beyond our expectation. There’s the respect That makes school of such long life, For who on foot would plod with Caesar and Cicero.— The L. H. S. ponies ran away you know— When he himself might pleasure take, At the Country Club, But that the dread of real work Makes us rather bear those ills we have, Than run the risk of those we know not of! Thus conscience does make alumni of us all. —Miss Anna Davidson Mirage, 1910 GRADUATES WRITE FINIS TOTHE TALEOF HIGH SCHOOL On September 13, 1943, we, the Class of '47, en- tered Lancaster High School as a part of the student body. We were all very bewildered and more than slightly overwhelmed as we entered the large auditorium and were confronted by so many strange faces. We were no more unfamiliar with our surroundings than Mr. Schaaf, however, for this was his first year to serve as principal. The freshman girls were entertained most hospit- ably by the Big Sister Club at the annual Fresh' man Mixer. Freshman boys were given a rousing welcome by the upper classmen. After the passage of several more weeks, we were established well enough to hold a class election, and our officers were as follows: Joe Henwood, president; Carl Christian, vice president; Bob Faig' ley, secretary; and Dorothy Kane, treasurer. Luck certainly seemed to be with us that year, for there were neither midyear nor final exams, due to the fact that the Christmas vacation was ex- tended two weeks because of the influenza epi- demic. On November 5, Virginia Jessup served as fresh- man attendant to the Queen at the Homecoming Game. Freshmen had their first glimpses of social life when, on February 8, the freshman party was held in the gym. Many new acquaintances were made, and everyone enjoyed himself thoroughly. The Student Council led several very successful drives to aid in the war effort. Among these were drives for the Junior Red Cross, for the collection of sales tax stamps, and the waste paper salvage The high school also supported the March of Dimes. Although September 5 arrived all too soon and we realized our summer vacation was over, we returned with a new title — very proud sopho- mores. At first we had a great deal of fun “hound- ing the “freshies, but the novelty eventually wore off. New grade cards were adopted this year, and also one-hour classes. The cards showed a complete picture of each pupil's standing in his various subjects. Class offices were dominated by boys, with Joe Henwood serving as president; Richard Hritz, vice president: and Harold Fultz, secretary-treas- urer. Shirley Gordon was elected as sophomore attend- ant at the Homecoming Game. The popular song-fests were initiated that year, and were thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. A lit- tle music always seemed to put us in the right mood for the day's work. AN OLD CUSTOM LONG We were very proud to have as our very own a youth canteen, sponsored by the Lancaster Junior Chamber of Commerce and Lancaster High stu- dents. The Gay-Teen Club sponsored several very interesting entertainers, including the “Early Worm,” from radio station WBNS, Columbus. Publication of our school paper, the Purple Pep- per, was resumed, and we were always eager to read its interesting accounts of school activities. To culminate the year's activities, we sophomores, on April 13, presented the Sophomore Talent Pro- gram. We were very proud of the talented mem- bers of our class. The following fall, on September 4. we entered the portals of Lancaster High with the realization that we were upper classmen. Boys again domina- ted the class officers, and the following were elect- ed: Richard Hritz, president: Joe Henwood, vice president; and Harold Fultz, secretary-treasurer. We were represented by Vivian Johnson at the homecoming celebration of the Coshocton game. The Homecoming Dance, sponsored by the Stu- dent Council, was a hugh success. On December 13 we presented our first play, Ghost Train, directed by Mr. Johnson. t really went over with a bang.” The annual Junior-Senior Reception was held on M ly 17, and was the last get-together activity fo - upper classmen. This traditional event was an out- standing success. On September 3 we entered Lancaster High as seniors. Serving as class leaders for this memor- able year were: Don Van Horn, president; Joe Henwood, vice president; and Dorothy Kane, sec- retary-treasurer. The Senior Ball was an event of November 22. Virginia Jessup was chosen to reign as Home- coming Queen, with Dorothy Kane as her senior attendant. The senior play, A Date With Judy , scheduled for January 30, had such a large sale of tickets that a repeat performance was required on Feb- ruary 1. This precedent-setting production was di- rected by Miss Yauger. Events now moved swiftly toward the close of school. The Junior-Senior Reception was enjoyed on May 23, followed by Class Night on May 29. The Baccalaureate service was on June 1, and Commencement of June 5 brought our school days to an appropriate ending. Thus a sojourn of four happv years comes to a close; and we arc all certain that the experiences gained during our years in high school will help us meet with clear eye and resolute heart the dif- ficulties and problems of the future. • - Norma Jean Frankc IN PASSING IS THE TRADITIONAL CLASS NIGHT Dear Diary, March 10, 1962 Four years of my life I have spent preparing myself for a career as a teacher. Instead I turned to the writing of fiction and have been pounding away at my typewriter in my New York apart- ment for six years. Fate has dealt kindly with me as two of my books are best sellers today. They are The Ghoul in the Sun and A Good Egg and Myself. 1 now feel that the time has come to write the great Amercian novel. Carefully have I laid the plot and compiled the data. This book entitled Come Home With the Wind” deals with the life of the world's greatest soldier and adven- turer, a man named Kilroy. It has been said that he fought in both theatres of the war at the same time. Since the end of World War II, Kilroy has n't been seen; but it is rumored that he is living as a recluse somewhere in Ohio. Hoping that he will collaborate with me on this book, I am get- ting ready to set forth with only one thought in mind, 1 must find Kilroy. As it may take sev- eral months and miles of travel to find this man, 1 decided to combine my trip with pleasure and look up members of my graduating class of ’47. Quite a few of my classmates are here in New York. I have been reading of them in the papers and have seen a few of them in my jaunts about town. Harold Fultz is now president of the United States. Eleven members of my class, Richard Brandon, Paul Shonk, Homer Beavers, Paul Botts, Frank Combs, John Cooperider. Bob Shahan, Pearl Dav- id Miller, Paul Kelsey, Charles Creiglow, and Rus- sell Campbell are making head lines this very day. This party headed by Captain Brandon, with Charles Creiglow and Russell Campbell as pho- tographers, have just returned from an expedition to Glocca Morra. They report the finding of a new island with lavender ice bergs, blue polar bears, and pink snow. Jack Boerstler high lights today's sport page. He just became the Heavy Weight Boxing Champion of the world at Madison Square Garden last night. Among others who have made good in the world of sports are Don Van Horn, Harry Short, Bob Hughes, Lloy d Goodman, and Dick Roush. They are with the St. Louis Cardinals and won the World Series last year. Kenny Shouldis, Ted Pursell, Harold Douglas, Herb Evans, Donald Fox, and Charles Reed have turned to professional football. They won the championship last fall playing with the New York Giants. Dick Smith become the country's favorite jockey' when he booted home Cheese Burger to win the Kentucky Derby’. Cheese Burger is from the stables of Bob Kitchen who is still living in Lancaster. Darrell Driver has become a public figure since he won the race at the Indianapolis Speedway last spring. I also read that Donna Stahly was elected to go to Paris where she will compete for the world's championship in ping pong. Bart Hagemeyer, Bill Holcombe, Dick Guth, and Charles Drinkle now form the board of Atomic control of the United States. Today the S. S. Queen for a Day landed and brought back two Navy nurses, Joan Cassley and Pat Carpenter, from China. Also a party of Red Cross workers, namely, Betty Clark, Eleanor Cole, Judy Gehres, Betty Lou Grant, Luella Hansel, and La Donna Hizey. I learned, too, that Bill Nolder is now head of the F. B. 1. Among his assistants are Paul Farrow. Rick Macioci, Noel Martin, Bill Milbaugh, and David Miller. Bob Thrash is the chief of the finger-printing de- partment. With him work Harry Smith, Jack Wil- kins, Fred White, Jerry Waits, and John Todhun- ter. Both Bob and Bill have promised me their full cooperation in my desperate search for Kilroy. Dear Diary, March 11, 1962 I have chartered a plane, The Holy Cow, and will soon be on my way to Ohio. I was surprised to find that Jack Eads was the manager there. My plane was being serviced by several men who looked familiar. They turned out to be Harry Mil- ler, Jim Mills, and Neil Moore, all expert plane PROPHESYING W cu ,J, opnectj mechanics. The pilot of the plane was none other than Freddy Potts. In the waiting room stood a group of social work- ers who were returning from a two-weeks conven- tion. They were Norma Jean Franke, Virginia Ochs, Starlie Yenrick, Virginia Reed, Joan Grimm, and Mary Catherine Reid. I was delight- ed to see them. They told me of the whereabouts of more of the class. Catherine and Kathleen Nicolia were appearing on Broadway in a special skating act. Their business manager is Dick Layman. Karl Plinkc and Bob Hartman were turning out hit tunes in Tin Pan Alley, their latest being When the Gooses Come Back to Massachusetts.” Their accompanying vocalists were Lois Sweeney and Jean Ann Campbell. Dave Straten was operating a day nursery for dogs, right in the heart of the city. The girls told me he was a howling success. His assistant, and a whiz as a dog sitter, was Donald Courtright. None of the girls, however, had seen Kilroy. 1 said goodbye, boarded by plane, and in a few minutes was circling my old home town. Here be- low me spread a city. Upon landing I was told its population was now 5,000,000. When I purchased a paper The Forest Rose Bu- gle, I read of many of my classmates. This paper is owned and edited by Dick Benadum, with Ted Mason his assistant. The staff of reporters consists of Carlene Page, Donald Eaton, Rose Hauser, Phyllis Gerken, Eloise Green, and Orris Mum- ford. Elva Jean Coleman and Joyce Enoch head the staff of commercial artists. Jim Schisler's fam- ous cartoons appear daily. Other office personnel are Luella Appel. Mary Ann Barnes, Mary Fran- ces Beck, Leo Freisner, and Kathleen Liff. On the business page I read the advertisement of Donald Holowell, The Friendly Undertaker. William Thomas, Theodore Bailey, Richard Bren- stuhl, William Alwood, William Asher, and Gro- ver Azbcll were the up-and-coming lawyers of the city. Bill Freeman, Marvene Hammack, Bill Rife, and Jack Smith aren't very well liked. They have be- come dentists. The Householder Department Store is the largest in t wn, with Dick Householder as the owner and manager. In his office arc such efficient persons as Joann Bobbitt, Norma Jean Bushce, Mary Lou Busscrt, Barbara Sherrick, Betty Swartz, Patty Thomas, Elva Yantes, and Jean Thomas. As his buyers he employs Betty Bender, Phyllis Bobblett, Betty Stump, Charles Russell, and Jack Reynolds. This store must sell everything from bailer wire to diamond-studded cuff links. George Bauman owns the largest meat packing business in Ohio. Some of his office personnel are Bessie Bowman, his secretary; Jim Dickson, assist- ant managci; John Murphy, buyer; and Bill Nut- ter. the salts manager. Ed Collins has become the largest building con- tractor in the city. His secretaries are Bonnadell Yantes and Joan Briggs. I also saw in the paper that Bob Kinscr is manag- ing the Lyric Theatre, wherein appear more suc- cessful classmates. These are their real names and not their stages names. In the movies appear such glamour girls as Carol Alfred, Marilyn Neff, Nor- ma Faye Ball, and Joan Graybill. As dancers on the stage we have Betty Lou Newman, Kathleen Pickering, and Patsy Rodgers. Donald Metzger, Ronald Metzger, and Kathryn Schriner are billed in a terrific tumbling act. Clutching my precious paper, I hailed a cab and started for the Lancaster Hotel. Upon arrival I found it was managed by Jack Clemens and Edgar Turner. In the main dining room, seated at a table discussing their children and husbands, were Mrs. Harry Cook, formerly Louise Bookman; Mrs. John Bowland, formerly Yvonne Mast; Mrs. Franklin Upp, formerly Peggy Williamson; and Mrs. Ho- ward Martin, formerly Pat Mcl ittrick. After- wards I learned their husbands were all members of the Chamber of Commerce of this fair city. Since they have been in office, no dark clouds have been allowed to float over Lancaster. After being invited to join these girls, I really learned of everyone, everyone but Kilroy, that is. George Bloom is Ohio's new Governor. Charles Carr has been re-elected as mayor. Ohio's senators arc now Beryl Shaeffer and Bob ASY WHEN THE CLASS NUMBERED TWENTY-FIVE Shaw. Their heated debates have made history. Jerry Dillon has become the most popular radio news commentator. Mary Lou Taylor has gained fame through a book of verse recently published. Rev. Reuben Mondhank's church choir has be- come very famous. Among its members are Vir- ginia Bell, Marjorie Wolf, Jeannine Noble, Bar- bara McLaughlin, Velma Beougher, Shirley Wal ter, and Mary Lou Hill. Bette Leohner is the ac- complished organist of the church and Tommy Sain the director. Recently returned from studying in Europe are Joanne Geiscr, the famous artist; and Annie Lou Raymond, the famed musician. Tom Jenkinson is now superintendent of Lancas- ter schools. Among other new teachers are Mariet- ta Emmons, Sue Stoughton, Luann Robinette, Viv- ian Lape, Margaret Moyer, Dorothy Jones, and Lois Haldcrman. The realtors of the city of Tom Henry, Gene Knel- ler, and Dick Lane. The girls said this trio had just sold Mt. Pleasant to a passing tourist. Clarence DeVault and Kenny Gardner are partners in a huge dairy farm. They have developed a fine herd of polka-dotted Holsteins. Walter Sheets and Earl Spaun can loudly sing the praises of “The Egg And I.” They have the fin- est chicken farm in the country. Raymonda Delong owns the most exclusive dress shop in town. The girls didn't know whether her models sold her gowns or her gowns sold her mod- els. Anyway, the models, Ruth Clark, Barbara Jef- fers, Virginia Borchers. Ruth Cavanaugh, Betty Ann Doughty, and Evelyn Fauble, are all engag- ed to be married. Bob Gossett and Ed Graf have a large manufact- uring business. They have been swamped with orders for crocheted bicycles. Doris Beddow, Marilyn Bixlcr, Norma Jean Bloom, Betty Fccklcy, and Esther King are telephone op- erators. With telephones operated by atomic en- ergy, these girls really have a skilled profession. Lancaster High's new coach is Bud Hritz and they haven't lost a basketball game in three years. Joe Henwood and Carl Christian arc both coach- es at O. S. U. They have become quite popular and have enjoyed many successes. Gladys Smcck is giving flying lessons to the lad- ies at the airport. Her most promising students, now commercial pilots, are June Westfall, Clara Smith, Charlotte Osterhage, Mary Burt. Betty Ann Rudisill, Betty Shaeffer, and Virginia Kline. Helen Hendrickson has a chain of beauty shops in our city. Her managers arc Jean McBroom, De- maris McCormick. Anna Marie Miller, Joan My- ers, and Louise Reliford. The shortage of nurses has been greatly alleviated by the addition of members of the class of '47. We have Jacqueline Rife, Phyllis Robinett, Vir- ginia Schorr, Rose Marie Sellers, Vivian John- son, Dorothy Kane, and Virginia Jessup. Dorothy Shaeffer and Joann Stump arc the two sweetest girls in town. They have a French pastry shop on Main Street. Mabel Suiter and Betty Summers are the only two lady barbers in town. Their business is quite . . . .quite! None of the girls at the luncheon knew anything about Kilroy. Mrs. Harry Cook said she had been several places about town where he had written “Kilroy was here,” but she had just missed him. Mrs. John Bowland said that her husband, Dr. Bowland, had an unidentified man as a patient in the hospital. When I heard this, I promptly bade the girls good-bye and thanked them for the luncheon and information. I took a cab and rush- ed to the hospital. Upon inquiry, I learned from Vivian Johnson that the man had been indenti- fied as Kilroy. He was quite ill but would recover. It seems he had been rooming with a friend. Com- ing home late one night his room-mate Richard somebody refused to open the door and let him in. Kilroy was found next morning suffering from shock and exposure. All is well that ends well. I have found the whole class of '47. Each is successful in his field. Then, too, Kilroy has at last been found. I am a very happy person. - Janet Courtright ad A P' oem A CLASS POET IS STILL CHOSEN Four ypars we’ve rambled through these halls. And climbed the stairs between the calls Of bells which hastened us to class. Studies s nt us forward o’er the years; Teachers ever patient tried to calm the fears Which often swelled within bewildered minds. Love of fun we mingled with the serious parts; Parties, plays, assemblies always won our hearts; Our dances shook the rafters clean with joy. Down in the gym full well the glee was run When sport or game was played, and score was won; While on the gridiron teammates fought for ground. Above these mentioned treasures friends stand high: Friends who've made us laugh some, perhaps sigh. Down in our hearts they have a special place. No more we’ll ramble through these halls, For we are hearing louder calls That tell the time is here. It’s forty-seven! Adieu, Mater dear. —Vivian Johnson . .

John Montgomery Assistant Basketball and Football Coach James Papritan Assistant Football Coach Barney Francis Head Basketball and Football Coach Earl Irick Faculty Manager Anthony Martin Baseball and Reserve Football Coach Under its new coach, Barney Fran- cis, the football team had that “never die” spirit. Hampered all season long by injuries, the Gold- en Gales nearly pulled a couple of upsets, particularly that of the mighty Newark Wildcats to whom they lost only 26-13. Winning two, losing six and tying one, the “Breezes improved with every game. Potentially, we had a champion- ship basketball team the past season, as did every team in the league. Playing in streaks, the Gales started off with a bang, slowed up, and then went wild again with five consecutive vic- tories, only to lose their final five games. In a thrilling contest, Greenfield McClain defeated the Tornadoes in the tournament, 31- 30. With “Tony Martin at the helm, the 1946 baseball team won four and lost the same number includ- ing tournament play. An interest- ing note was that they defeated the faculty, the first time in the history of L. H. S. In the tourna- ment, they won from Jackson, but lost out to Portsmouth in their sec- ond game. QaL ow Kenny Should's. guard Named on the O. L. first team. His hard. aggre-sive play won him the co-captain- cy at the end of the season. Joe Hen wood. hack. Joe was our quarterback. He was hampered by injuries in mid season and his loss was a handicap to the Gales' of- fense. Hill Asher, tackle. A bc-spcctaclcd redhead was Bill. Did a fine job of play- ing his position. Always played for the good of the team. Ed Graf, end. A great guy! Although he didn't get into many games. Ed was always willing to do his best. Herb Evans, back. A first team man all year. He was consistent, playing forty-eight minutes in many of the games. We'll miss him next year. Carl Christian, back. One of the mainstays of the backficld. Also was injured in midscason. Lancaster sport fans will miss Carl next year. John Murphy, end. A quiet, likeable chap.

Don was built for a tackle and fulfilled the job very well. Jim Mills, end Injuries hurt Jim also. Just when he was coming into his own, he received an eye injury and couldn't play. Jack Boerstler, guard- jack was diminutive, but a great player. He received the co-captaincy, an honor he certainly deserved. Bob Shah.tn, back Always dependable. Bob seldom missed a practice He capably performed at full- back. Too bad he won't be back next year, Harry Cook, center. The number-one center. When the team was in low spirits, it was always Harry who gave them that word of encouragement. Below. left, Coach Francis watches Gene Cole toss a long one ....

At the right, the invaluable assistants of Coach Francis arc Mr. Paoritan and Mr. Montgomery. f £ en i or st arj Bud Mritz—Without a doubt the coolest player on the team. Not a high scorer. Bud was strictly a team man. always taking advantage of the situation. Also. Bud was a good rebound man and one of the best foul shots seen around L. H. S. for a long time. Harry Short—He really start- ed to roll the last half of the season and became the most dependable man on the team. Harry's long shots kept the Tornadoes in many ball games. When the Gales were in trouble. Harry al- ways saw that something was done about it. Tom Jcnkinson—Tom's con- sistent an'l hard-working play won him honorable mention on the C. O. L. team. Working from a guard spot. Tom was fast and a hard man to guard once he got going. Tom also was a very cool player, full of pep and energy. Bob Hughes—Bob didn't sc« quite so much action, bu- his fancy Dan shooting was a wonderful thing t watch. In the Newark ganu he sank a couple of lonji shots that thrilled everyone and incidentally, nearly tie up the ball game. An:.ious players war to see the outcome of this shot. Lancaster fash breaks down the floor in their game with Dover. Carl Christian—The hardest worker at practice, and in a game. Carl will he missed next year. He, also, was no: a high scorer. His points came just when they were needed. An all-round ath- lete. Carl was no doubt sor- ry to sec his basketball days end. Dave Straton—Dave did hi job at center—and a good one at that. When he went up after the ball, you could bet that he would get it. His faking made him plenty tough to guard. Dave was always a card-shark on the out-of-town trips. Harold Fultz—The team's high scorer, Harold was named on the C.O.L. second team. Harold garnered his points by driving for the basket—and he could really drive! H is best effort for the year was again-t Mt. Vernon when he racked up 27 points. Donald Met gci—Fast and able to jump—that was Donald. Not too tall, he could really get into the air. Hi speed was a great asset and he made the most of it This was his first year of varsity competion; he did a good job. This looks like a game of race horse .
