The Lima School Board has faithfully and unselfishly performed the tasks With Which they have been confronted. The people of Lima should be truly grateful to these men for the services which they render so willingly. Go1.DA ADAMS Lima, Ohio. B. S. in Education. Ohio Northern Uni- versity. Mathematics.

Well de- served of the admiration are they, who Calthough they were a small groupj proved themselves to be most versatile during their four years of activity 'in Central High. Under the guidance of Miss Reed, Miss Howey, Miss Jones, and Miss Mc- Clurg, their class supervisors, ,they advanced from shy, awkward Freshmen to serene, poised Seniors. Typical of energetic under classmen, they entered into all phases of Cen- tral's activities and continued in their four' years to be well represented in all extra curricular work. The HC Association claimed three of this class: Richard Feil, James Fish- er, and Keete Mills. Ann Applas, Betty Davidian, Harold Hilgendorf, Margaret Holm, Ruth Ann Pletcher, and Genevieve Steer participated in the dramatic field through the Masquerader and Troubadourian clubs. Betty, Ann, and Harold were chosen for the cast of the Junior play, Fly Away Home. Keete Mills and Bob Williams represented this class in the Student Council. Keete was appointed co-chairman of the Hall Patrol. Bob, having upheld the duties of a Student Council member for three consecutive years, was elected presi- dent of the Student Council in his Senior year. Two class members, Richard Johnson and Bob Williams, were accepted in- to the Hi-Y of which Bob was made president in his last year. The feminine half of the class was not to be over shadowed by the boys, as seven of the girls took active parts in the Blue Triangle. Betty Davidian held two offices, one being president in her fourth year. The remarkable abilities of this class of twenty were further demonstrated by honors won by two students. Betty Davidian achieved the highest scholastic average, for which her name was engraved on the Scholarship Cup. A rising young scientist, Jack Hilgendorf, was discovered in their midst and given the Bausch-Lomb medal for his outstanding record in four years of science. As a memorial, these graduates of January 1937, with the class of 1936, left to their Alima 'Mater a set of Harvard Classics, but far more precious than these are the memories of attainments which others will strive to achieve. -VIRGINIA GAST twenty two Senior Class History FRESHMAN YEAR N a memorable September day some four years ago, short but long enough for a complete metamorphosis in the lives of almost two hundred and fifty individuals, an historic event occurred, For others perhaps it seemed but an ordinary day, but for us, the class of 1937, it marked the beginning of the happiest, most carefree days of our lives. Yes, we must admit they were care- free in spite of the weight of unsolved problems in physics and trigonometry, or the unveiled mysteries of Latin. Then we were nought but one of the annual crops of freshmen, a little green, a little gawky, but endowed with an unqeunch- able enthusiasm for the opportunities that lay before us. Now that we are seniors, the envy of all underclassmen, those opportunities lie behind us, used or abused, but there are no regrets, for new ones lie ahead. In the first gay Mad-Hatterish year we chose as pilots for our yet unweath- ered craft Nelda Fowler, president: Clifford Solt, vice-presidentg Virginia Prath- er, secretaryg Bob Williams, treasurerg Dorothy Rapp and Leon Claassen, Stu- dent Council members. To Miss Reed, our freshman supervisor, we give our deepest gratitude for her ever dependable help and guidance in that auspicious initial year. SOPHOMORE YEAR In accordance with tradition, upon reaching our second year we lost our ver- dant tinge and became wise, yea even supercilious sophomores. Undaunted by this proverbial reputation, sails unfurled, we proceeded to demonstrate this Wis- dom in the selection of class officers. We elected Leon Claassen, presidentg Bill Burke, vice president, Virginia Pifer, secretaryg and Bill Crawford, treasurer. On the Student Council we were conscientiously served by Nelda Fowler, Bob Mereness, Richard Creviston, and Bob Williams. The sophs were proud of Gale Thompson and Bob Mereness, who were the recipients of awards in the Held of athletics. Gale won two letters, one in basketball and the other in baseball, while Bob was elected Head Cheerleader. It was also in this year that Bob Berger, Dorothy Byerly, and Leon Claas- sen Hrst began to give promise of their remarkable ability in word-duelling. As always Miss Howey gave unstintingly of her time and greatly appre- ciated advice. J UNIOR YEAR Juniors at last! Here again a great change took place. Bobs became Roberts, Bills became Williams, and we began to think that perhaps the poet was right. Maybe life was real and earnest. In some strange way books began to be serious- ly studied instead of resting peacefully in the locker every night. In the midst of this unaccustomed burden of study we took enough time out to elect capable class oflicers, choosing as president, Nelda Fowlerg vice president, William Burke: secretary, Richard Crevistong and treasurer, Robert Berger. Elected to represent us on the Student Council were Robert Mereness, Rosemary Cashman, Robert Williams, Leon Claassen, Grover Crites, and Eldon Miller. A most successful comedy, Fly Away Home , was presented to an en- thusiastic audience as the dramatic offering of the junior class. The cast consisted twenty three of Vernon Hossellman, Marjorie Bloomquist, Robert Williams, Betty Davidian, John Parent, Wilma Jean Zimmer, Eldon Miller, Jack I-lilgendorf, Ann Applas, Alice Means, and Robert Kevershan. Robert Berger with his inimitable vocabulary upheld the honor of the class in Varsity Debate. The Junior members of the cheer-leading squad were Robert Mereness and Vernon Hossellman, more familiarly known as Bob and Hossie . Objects of their cheers were Harry Carey, Richard Courtney, Carl Harrod, Russell Moats, Raymond Thomas, Gale Thompson, who Won hard-earned letters in football, and not forgetting that most important of personages, their hard-working man- ager, Mike Zarro, We are indebted to 'Miss Jones for her valuable assistance which was read- ily given at our slightest need. SENIOR YEAR A And now with the port in sight, the order was full steam ahead for the last and most satisfying year of our Odyssey. This year the officers of our now weather-beaten but still gallant ship were selected entirely from the so-called stronger sex. They were Gale Thompson, presidentg Melvin Duncan, treasurer, James Dalton, vice president, and George Murphy, secretary, The eight seniors who worked diligently for us on the Student Council were Mary Catherine Ba- singer, Harry Carey, Rosemary Cashman, Richard Creviston, Nelda Fowler, Raymond Herold, Frieda Renz, and Dorothy Stelzer. Gale Thompson with the assistance of Miss McClurg selected the follow- ing committees: Announcements: Jack Mericle, Mary Catherine Basinger, Arthur Rothrock, Dorothy Rapp, and Fred Tharp: Memorial: Rosemary Cash- man, Virginia Pifer, Leon Claassen, Bob Mereness, and Frieda Renzg Dinner Dance: Viiginia Gast, John Parent, Dona Hughes, Richard Courtney, George Murphy, Lyman Strong, Joline Hefner, Marie Helmer, Mannon Barnes, Harold Wilson, Marjorie Bloomquist, and Janet Augsbergerg Graduation Outfits: Harry Carey, Russell Moats, June 'Helm, and Catherine Kniselyg Play: Robert Berger, Dorothy Byerly, and Jeanne Pond: Baccalaureate Decorations: Don Wilson. Carl Harrod, Ray Herold, Vivian Zimmerman, and Kathleen McKinley. Senior devotees of the pigskin cult, sometimes known as football, were Gale Thompson, Harry Carey, Richard Courtney, Robert Crail, Raymond Her- old, Harry Zurmehly, Melvin Duncan, James Dalton, Carl Harrod, and Rus- sell Moats, who all received letters. Bombastic basketball letter-men were Gale Thompson, Russell Moats, and Melvin Duncan, We were no less active in the Held of literary endeavor, as Witness the large number of seniors on the staffs of both the Weekly and Annual Mirror. Weekly journalists wer-e Elisabeth Fisher, James F, Cox, James R. COX, Ruth Kennedy. Clarence Gratz, Richard Nebcour, Fred Tharp, Dorothy Rapp, Helen Hill, Helen Powell, Verla Myers, Douglas Scott, Frieda Renz, William Crawford, Arthur Rothrock, Dorothy Byerly, and Paul Weaver. On the Annual staff were Marjor- ie Bloomquist, Janet Augsberger, Jeanne Pond, Virginia Gast, Ruth Negelspach, Ruth Reid, Catherine Knisely, Kathryn Zeits, Betty Laughlin, Harry Carey, Quetora Zerkel, June Helm, Dorothy Wolf, Jack Mericle, Doris de Garmo, Jack Brogan, Leroy Justus, and Robert Berger. Those of our class who frequented the Honor Roll nearly every time were Arthur Rothrock, Mary Catherine Basinger, Marjorie Bloomquist, Jack Mericle, Beatrice Norton, Ru-th Reid, Robert Berger, Dorothy Byerly, Richard Creviston, Elisabeth Fisher, Frieda Renz, Dorothy Stelzer, Charles Thompson, Virginia Pifer, and Virginia Gast. Robert Berger and Dorothy Byerly represented the class in Varsity debate. --RUTH REID ttuenl y four Duncan, Thompson, Murphy, Dalton TWELFTH YEAR CLASS OFFICERS President ----------- GALE THOMPSON Vice President - - JAMES DALTON Sccrelury - - 1 GEOROIQ MURPHY 'I'reasurez- - f NIIELVIN DUNCAN ZLUUUI yffiuc twenty-six ALICE ALLEN Commercial Course---G.

In this year's issues we have striven for closer contact with and at deeper understanding of the student body as a whole, and we sincerely hope this end has been attained. The news columns have attempted to be vehicles for the presentation of information which interests the studentsg the editorials have tried to catch their viewpointg and the feature columns have sought lively, clean gossip items. Seeking to increase The Mirror's appeal, we not only have sought diligently for suitable material, but have made certain changes in the appearance of the paper. New type faces and headline styles have appeared on each page, and both flag and masthead have been changed. The journalism class which meets twice a week under Miss Laura Jamison has adopted a new textbook which has, to a certain extent, altered the style sheet. Unchanged, however, has been the credit- able eiiiciency of the business staff and the helpful cooperation of local business men who, through their patronage, make possible the school paper., Unfaltering also has been the aid which the faculty advisors, Miss Laura Jamison and Mr. Heffner, have given The Mirror. To next year's staff we give The Mirror, sincerely hoping that in its hands our school paper may again, and with greater success, be the implement of the student body, reflecting without distortion that group's thoughts, ideals, and aspirations. May this hope and its attendant expectation be fulfilled. -ELISABETH FISHER seventy ont seventy- Row 1-Marjorie Bloomquist, Margery Leach, Janet Augsburger, June Helm, Jack Mericle, Ruth Reid.

The staff has tried to express youth in every picture, every write-up. We have tried to make the annual as simple as possible and to avoid wordiness: in other words-to stream- line it. Several new schemes were used this year regarding the general set-up. Dur- ing the second semester, the literary staff met in 314 during sixth period and worked on the write-ups. Another new plan was the division of the staff into three sections-literary, photography, and business. The planning, organiza- tion, panel work, writing, and typing were entirely student work. Henrietta Rasmus has very tactfully and graciously carried out her duties as business manager, Margery Leach, the assistant editor, has willingly and efhciently assisted the editor-in-chief at all times. Our much over-worked art staff, Janet Augsburger and June Helm, very conscientiously and faithfully measured, centered, cut, and pasted all pictures. Miss Bonita Jamison has been very capable as supervisor of the literary staff. Miss Stuart has competently supervised the arduous task of picture appoint- ments and photography. Mr. Heffner's advice and cooperation throughout have been greatly appreciated. Miss DeGrief has served efliciently as literary critic. We wish to thank the engravers, photographers, and printers for their helpful suggestions and fine cooperation. All in all, the staff has worked very hard and cooperated splendidly to make this annual for you. To you, we present the Annual Mirror of 1937-and we hope you like itl -MARJORIE BLooMQU1sT seventy three Row 1f'Mr. Heffner, Marjorie Bloomquist, Doris de Garmo, Elisabeth Fisher.

Quill and Scroll HE Quill and Scroll is an international honorary society for high, school journalists. It has many chapters in the United States and foreign coun- tries. lt was organized in April, 1926 by a group of high school super- visors for the purpose of encouraging and rewarding individual accomplishments in journalism and allied fields. Members of this society must meet the following requirements: they must be juniors or seniors, and in scholarship must rank in the upper third of their group for the current year: they must have accomplished superior Work in some phase of journalism: they must be recommended by the supervisors directing the school publicationsg and, finally, they must be approved by the national secre- tary-treasurer. Central received its charter, which was the first charter granted in Ohio, in October, 1926. Among those initiated last year, Who were still in Central this year, Were Elisabeth Fisher, the editor of the Weekly Mirror, and Marjorie Bloomquist, editor of the Annual llVlirror. Those staff members initiated this past year were Doris de Garmo, Jean- nette Jones, Jane Parmenter, Henrietta Rasmus, Helen Reese, Douglas Scott, and Patricia Snovel. -ARLENE COPELAND .scumly-four Row 1---Robert Berger, Dorothy Byerly, Mr. Boylan, Virginia Byrd, Edward Foster.

Varsity Debate OR 1936-1937 the national debate question was Resolved, That all electric utilities should be governmentally owned and operated. This year no interclass debate teams were organized. Instead, twelve persons were chosen from varsity try-outs and divided into six teams-three negative and three affirmative. Several tournaments were held during the year, which gave more students than usual a chance at actual debating experience, December 5, Central partici- pated in a tournament at South 'High and took first place, winning fourteen out of lifteen debates. We also sent teams to the Northeastern Indiana Debate Tour- nament at Fort Wayne on January 16, where again our school was successful, en- tering sixteen debates and winning sixteen. Centra1's teams also attended a tour- nament at Fremont, February 17, with eleven victories and two defeats. Finally, the elimination tournament at Findlay, March 20, climaxed the season. Central won first place and returned with a shining, new cup. ln the league debates, our affirmative team was victorious over Bluffton and Clyde, but bowed humbly in defeat to South. The negative defeated Sylvania and Bluffton but lost to Fremont. Fremont later won the State Championship. No organization is complete without some social activity. Varsity debate was by no means lacking in this respect. The impromptu debate on the question of Ex-King Edward and Wally Simpson which was held at the delightful party given by Mr. and Mrs. Boylan will not soon be forgotten. ln March the debaters held a party at Landis' home in honor of the coaches. The attractive and enjoyable dinner party given at Delphos by Miss Howey and Mrs. Pence was also a highlight in the year's events. The varsity teams were composed of Dorothy Byerly and Robert Berger, affirmative: Virginia Byrd and Edward Foster, negative. Miriam Butts, Rosemary Landis, Eldon Miller, Walter White-aiiirma- tive: and Elisabeth Fisher, Patterson Pepple, Leon Claassen, Paul Yant-nega- tive, made up the second teams. Mr. Boylan, Miss Howey, and Mrs. Pence were very able coaches. -ROSEMARY LANDIS seventy flue , Row 1- -Joseph Addis, Arthur MacWilliams, Don Langstaff, Richard Lamson.

Street Patrol IGHTEEN manly and noble boys risked their lives to protect their asso- ciates within the restricted district of Central High School. Although these boys had -to withstand many storms of rain, snow, and sleet, they success- fully managed to keep the haphazard motorists and demanding pedestrians under control. The officers Were Donald Langstaff, presidentg Arthur McWilliams, vice-president: Richard Lamson, secretary and treasurer. The Street Patrol receives our hearty felicitations for the fine record that it has established during this past school year. Comprehending all the hard tasks of regulating and keeping traffic Well in hand is no play-boy's job. Every one of the Street Patrol members has our unanimous vote and most hearty recogni- tion. Many happy and sunshiny days in the future, boys! Members of the patrol met on Tuesdays and Thursdays of each week at which time they discuss the Weekly cases. The awarding of silver and bronze memorial medals to those serving suffi- cient time Was observed in the auditorium. Mr. Huber, all the students of Central Wish to congratulate you on your splendid Work during your first year as supervisor ofthe Street Patrol.

Student Council HIS organization was established in Central in 1926 with development of student responsibility and cooperation between the student body and the faculty as its outstanding purpose. Twenty-two students-eight seniors, six juniors, four sophomores, 'tiwo freshmen, one eighth grader, and one seventh grader-make up the council, which is elected by the student body. This year provision Was made to give half-year seniors representation. In September Robert Williams was elected chairman: Richard Creviston, chairman pro-tempore: and Rosemary Cashman, clerk. When Robert gradu- ated at the mid-year, Richard took his place as chairman, andlHarry Carey be- came chairman pro-tempore. The Student Council sponsors many of the school's activities, such as cour- tesy monitors, corridor patrol, street patrol, school dances, honor study hall, and honor senior home room. A committee from the council also edits the hand- book. ' With the cooperation of the Weekly Mirror Maidens Chance Week and the Who's Who Contest are held under the supervision of the council. With the very competent aid of lVlr. Huber, its new advisor, the Student Council this year did much to make Central a more enjoyable place.

Corridor patrol NE of the most important and successful projects of the Student Council during the past year was the corridor patrol, an organization which was put into operation six years ago. Between 8:05 and 8:30 in the morn- ing and between 12:30 and 12:50 at noon, reliable students took their places in the main halls throughout the building. Their responsibility was to control congestion, to see the that pupils Went to their respective home rooms at the dreaded sound of the Warning bell, and to make sure that lockers Were securely locked, The latest idea for curbing confusion is the gray line invention , which Was established this year in the third floor hall. Its use and success need no explanation. With Mr. Huber as faculty advisor, Mary Catherine Basinger and Keete Mills as Student Council co-chairmen, this group cooperated with students and faculty in making Central a more tranquil, orderly, and harmonious school. --ROSEMARY LANDIS seventy-eight Row If -Richard Creviston, Dorothy Stelzer, Rosemary Cashman, Marjorie LeValley, JoAnn Bowman.

During the past year two study halls were organized, one in room 350 on Junior High side and another in room 202 on Senior High side. Every period a responsible student was in charge. The following Were among the rules of this honor system: a chairman has complete control over the room the period he is on duty: when necessary, pupils may talk for two minutes only, if permission is obtained from the monitor: and students may leave the room, one at a time, with permission. Bob Williams was chairman of the Honor Study Hall Committee during the first semester and Dorothy Stelzer, during the second semester. Miss Watson and Mr. Huber also gave their helpful assistance. -ROSFMARY LANDIS .seuentyfnine eighty Row 1 -Virginia Pifer, Donna Hughes, Nelda Fowler, Ruth Augsburger, Rosemary Landis, Dorothy Wolf.

Courtesy Monitors EVERAL years ago, a new organization was inaugurated in Central under the auspices of the Student Council. This was a plan for directing be- wildered or uninformed students and visitors to the remote corners and niches of the building. Such a duty has been entrusted to Courtesy Monitors. Every period of the day students were placed in the main hall of both Junior and Senior High, Here they diligently and cheerfully pursued their task of seeing that persons unfamiliar with Central were safely guided to their par- ticular destinations. During the past year, under the leadership of Nelda Fowler and the super- vision of Mr, Huber, this group held several meetings in which rules and sugges- tions for the organization were made and discussed, Such a unit is truly an asset to our school. We are deeply grateful to faculty and students who are in any way responsible for its skillful, smooth, and suc- cessful operation. -RosEMARY LANDIS Row lilileanor McJilton, Juanita Webber, Juanita Powell, Dorothy McClain, Charles Peterson, William Sells, Dorothy Harte-r, Ruth Gordon, Valdine Vaughn.

The Senior Qrchestra OFFICERS President - - - WILLIAM SELLS Vz'ce-Presidem' - RICHARD FREEMAN Secretary-Treasurer ---- CHARLES PETERSON MONG the important musical organizations was the Senior Orchestra founded some twenty-Seven years ago. The advanced musicians, most of Whom had graduated from the Junior Orchestra, composed its mem- bership. Mr. Clark's efficient instruction gave Central an orchestra of which We can be truly proud. The instrumentalists met the first period each Monday, Wednes- day, and Friday to learn to play capably and appreciate the finer and more com- plicated arrangements of Well-known composers, At the singingyof the violins, and the deep rich tones of the cello harmoniz- ing in expressive melodv, something stirred within us. This reaction enabled us to appreciate more fully our school orchestra. Aside from accompanying in various Ways, the orchestra also provided music in our assemblies, plays, and lyceums. Playing the gala college songs of the campus and the Weird Russian music of the operetta, 'ASonia , was its most important event. We congratulate Mr. Clark, their leader, for his untiring efforts in perfect- ing such an eiiicient organization.

Senior Band HIS year We have a band of which every Centralite is proud, There are fifty-five members, complete in those dazzling, new uniforms, who not only look well but play and march superbly. Led by Leon Claassen, the drum major, it has had a notably fine year. The band spurred us to ight and cheer at football games. We were glad to send it to Findlay and were proud of its field maneuvers at the dedication of the Lima Stadium. The band gave a splendid concert last winter in Assembly under their capable director, Mr. H. O. Clark. It marched in several parades in Lima's streets during the year. April 10, the band sponsored an afternoon and evening concert of the Ohio State Band. In the spring was the band banquet, the social function of the year. The latest project for the welfare of the band is the organization of the Band Mothers, of which Mrs. C. C. Claassen is president. Already it has proved successful, The crowning event of the year was the spring festival, here in Lima, spOI1- sored by Central's band, The band, also, participated in festivals at Van Wert and Kenton. Mr, C. O. Guy, as faculty manager, has promoted several financial drives to pay for the band's new uniforms. -MARGERY LEACH eighty three Row 2 Miriam Budd, Evelyn Herman, Wavelene live-ler, Richard McMullem, Duane Miller, King Chavous, William Helscr, Buddy Kent.

These child prodigics met thc hfth period each Monday and Friday in the auditorium. From this large group a special chorus was organized which met every Wednesday the sixth period. Mr. Clark aims to fulhll the purpose of the club which is to prepare it for the Senior High chorus. Besides singing in assemblies, the chorus rendered a music festival which was the outstanding project of the club. This year the club differed from previous years in that Freshmen were in- cluded in the membership. This increased the enrollment to one hundred and thirty members. These Freshmen receive credit for their efforts although the regular Junior High students do not.

J The action of this hilarious farce begins in Fred Lister's beach home when Algernon Angell, Algy to you, is brought in unconscious. Great is the excitement when it is learned that he is the victim of amnesia. A thorough search of some clothes found on the beach, and assumed to be Algy's, reveals that they belong to a Mr. James Hathaway Canelope, a wealthy manufacturer and socialite. Everyone now believes that Algy, or Canelope, should pay his social and Hnancial debts. By the last curtain all mysteries are solved and there is a joyful ending. The outstanding success of Slightly Deliriousl' was due to the splendid direction of Miss Stuartg the good management of Jane iMcCroba, business managerg Rosemary Gisler, property manager: and June Bernstein, publicity agent. -ALICE LOUISE PARENT nznely two 1 N Front Row Ruth Jervis, Patricia Bourk, Patterson IR-pple, Marjorie Le Valley, Patricia Snovel, Dorothy Ridenour.

Death stalks, and super- stition reigns. The uncanniness of the situation quite unnerves Joan Walters. who is further upset bv the disappearance of her maid Hilda. Tom, the deef' servant of Peter. and Yuru, the servant of Dr. Lacy, Peters cousin, do much to complicate the plot. Mrs. Grimes, the housekeeper, is jealous of Hazel Orper. Peter's niece. Each of the characters believes himself to be the only sane person in the house. Blanch Lamb, Tibbv, l-leckenshel, Payne, Linda Perkins, Clem Durward, and Dr. Markowitz are characters in an interesting plot.

He thinks Bill is too fond of Janet, a waitress. Furthermore, Harry threatens to turn Bill out unless he is able to pay for future accommodations. While brooding over this predicament, Bill meets fMarcella Jenks, a news- paper girl in need of a story. In order to help her, to increase Grimes' busi- ness, and incidentally to get a job, he conceives the bright idea of spreading the rumor that an English lord is staying at the hotel. Business at Edgewater Inn picks up tremendously because four lords are found, one of whom is genuine . As a result Bill wins a job and Janet, too. Mrs. Rhonemus ably guided the cast to give an excellent performance. Mary Vail was business manager and Ruth Jervis, property manager. -ALICE LOUISE PARENT nznety four Cluby Row 1-Emma Jayne Hires, Florence Shambaryrer, Mary Thompson, Marjorie Leach, Grace Downing, ....

Organized over fifteen years ago, the club has divided into 'two successful groups-the Junior Blue Triangle for freshmen and sophomore girls and the Senior Blue Triangle for junior and senior girls. Meetings, held after school on Thursday at the Y. W. C. A., have offered many interesting speakers. Members are sent each year to a mid-winter confer- ence. Here plans are made and problems discussed. Each representative brings back many excellent ideas for her group. Some ofthe entertainment for the club alone are the dances featured in the spring and winter, the chili supper, thc plays given at the meetings to help the girls in their manncrs and speech. The inner circle or those girls who have done most to live up to the codc are presented with the Girl Reserve Ring at thc end of each club year, Under the excellent cooperation and advice of Miss Gale Howey, Miss Wat- son, Miss Mendenhall, and Miss Doris Keller, the club has had a very successful year. -JEANNE LATsoN one hundred nine Row 1-Gertrude Henderson, Mildred Webb, Mildred Harper, Lula Banks.

Based on the three cardinal principles of health, knowledge, and spirit, the slogan is to face life squarely. The club's purpose, to find and give the best, is expressed in the club through its activities which promote friendship and social understanding. The meetings, held on Tuesday after school at the Y. W. C. A., have been educational as well as inspirational, Besides programs par- ticipated in by the girls, outside speakers gave talks and demonstrations on varied subjects of interest to girls. Other meetings have been social and recrea- ional, after which a cup of tea was enjoyed, Through its representation on the City Girl Reserve Inter-Club Council, the club participated in sponsoring an anti- war movie and a city wide recognition service at which new members were taken in. As a service project the girls gave a Christmas party for children at which each child was given toys and candies. Another enjoyable project was the work of renovating the Girl Reserves Club Room. The financial plans of the year were centered on raising money to send delegates to a regional Girl Reserves Camp this summer. ' A ' The club was supervised this year by Mrs. Robert Martin, Mrs, Robert Jones, and the Y, W. C. A. Girl Reserve secretary, Miss Doris Keller, The club has greatly appreciated the able guidance of its supervisors in making efective the purpose of the club. -MILDTQED HARPER one hundred ten Row Row Row Row Row Row and 1fLeon Claassen, Dun Wilson, Robert VVilliams, Robert Merenc-ss, Richard Freeman, William Baker. 2-LeRoy Justus, Fred Boop, Walter Fishel, Jack Meriele, Richard Creviston, Robert Reed, Alan Wiseley, Jack Allgier, 3+Robert Logan, Tum DeVilbiss, Robert Keversham, Paul Weaver, Donald Fletcher, Robert Johnson, Gerald McMaken, Jerry Maewilliams. 4-Waldon Mertz, John Kemp, Paul Yant, Arthur Rothrock, John Whittinprton, Tom Tuttle, Bill Myers, Richard Freeman, Robert Berger. 5fHenry Kidder, Walter White.

TRACE HIS year the Hi-Y has had the largest membership of its entire period of organization, and full cooperation has been given by all in carrying Out the club's purpose: To create, maintain, and extend throughout the school community high standards of Christian living. The Hi-Y members have gained much valuable and interesting information from their various speakers and personal discussions. Some of the speakers were Samul Blattner, Kermit Westbay, Rev. S. M. Davidian, Dr. 'iBud Yingling, Prank Warner, and James MacDonald. The main events of this year's activities were the steak roast at Ft. Amanda, Older Boys' Conference at Cincinnati, annual football meeting with South, Christmas dance, and the play given before the school assembly. For the first time, in its history the club organized bowling and basketball teams for competition with the South Senior Hi-Y. Txhis year will close one of the most outstanding club years in the Senior Hi-Y. -EMMA JAYNI3 l-TIRES one hundred eleven Row Row Row Row 1fWilliam Blum, Richard Monbeck, Howard Webb, Reed Blackburn, Robert Harrod. 2-John Becht, William Parent, Kenneth Dole, Jack Miller, William Zumbrun, Earl Moreo, William 3--lgllgiiiihe-Amspaugh, Richard Hover, Richard Neuman, Richard Meffley, George Miller, Milan 4-Cl1az3'cleZh.Kelly, James Meffley, Rodney Delaney, Mr. Lutman, James Nollis, Don David, Bud Bloumquist.

LUTMAN O create, maintain, and extend higher standards of Christian living throughoutj the school and community is the motto of the Hi-Y. Not only the Senior Hi-Y, but also the existence of the Junior Hi-Y is due to the desire expressed by high school boys for seeking any opportunity to de- velop the finer pointsi of character building. The ideals being so high, the club has the respect of everyone. Nearly fifty years ago those boys attending Lima High organized Central Hi-Y. It was then a small group that met in the gymnasium to carry out the motto. The club developed such a large membership that there are now two sec- tions, the Junior Hi-Y for freshmen and sophomore boys, and the Senior Hi-Y for senior and junior boys. Some of the variousl activities of the club are bowling, which was organ- ized for competition with the Senior Hi-Y, and swimming, which was added for entertainment. Junior Hi-Y members Were fortunate this year in having had joint meet- ings with the Senior Hi-Y and in having secured a better understanding of their next year's work. As an advisor this year, the Hi-Y was most fortunate in having Mr. Lut- man and wishes to thank this gentleman for his cooperation and advice, -JEANNE LATSON one hundred twelve WHo's Who DOROTHY STI?I.ZI2R7Most popular girl ROBERT KOMMlNSKglVl0st pupular boy GALE?
