Its color denotes truth, loyalty and virtue. We chose this flower to symbolize our acquiring the six elementary traits which it embodies, and without which, one would be, and is a failure, spiritually. Incidentally a spiritual failure is a moral failure and there is no place in free society for the morally unprincipled. The Class Colors In choosing blue and silver for its colors, our class has combined two of the best harmonizing colors in existence. Perhaps no special meaning may be attached to either of them singly, nevertheless the idea of harmony is one to which the high school graduate should become accustomed. Harmony and co-ordination are the prime factors in modern business and industry without which success would be attained only in mild degrees if at all. It is this spirit of co-operation and co-ordination that the blending and harmonizing of colors is intended to represent. Class Song Our high school course is over, We have harbored safe and sound; Together we have journeyed, Our great aim and goal we’ve found. The friendships we’ve been forming, While at work and while at play ’Mongst teachers and our classmates, Are the ones we’ll guard alway. Dear Lincoln, we must leave you, For the time to part is here; Our hearts are filled with sorrow As we leave our school so dear, We wish to be remembered As a loyal class, and true, Ever as we travel forward, Lincoln High, we’ll honor you. Though now our paths may sever As to-night we say goodbye, In truth the ways grow closer, Never shall our school-love die, Farewell, oh faithful teachers, Farewell, Class of Twenty-Three, We shall hold dear Lincoln High School Ever in our memory, Farewell, Farewell, In fond mem’ries you will be. —Berta Lehman. Class Poem Dear classmates all, of twenty-three. The time has come to say goodbye, Since now our tasks are ended We must leave dear Lincoln High. The friendships formed shall long endure Though all of us may parted be, We’ll keep, as future years pass by, Their fond and pleasant memory. Now, after these four happy years, Through patient teacher’s kindly care, We all can solve life’s problems hard, Our minds inclined with knowledge rare. Our high school course is now- complete, Our tasks are done, our battles fought, We’ve gained our hard earned goal at last, The milestone, which we long have sought. Now, a sthe future beckons us, And each one goes his way alone, Oh, Lincoln, we shall ne’er forget That as our guiding star you’ve shone. Eleanor Hoffman. T O M K 30 Our Class History It was in the year 1919 at the close of the Great World War, that our Class of ’23 entered the wonderful Lincoln aviation field. Aeroplanes of course were the fashion and it was natural that we should choose the most noted field as a source of knowledge. This great place was in charge of Commander Smiley. There were many machines here. Some of them were named English, Algebra, Geometry, Biology, History, Law, Sewing, Typewriting, Music and Art, all of which were piloted by capable aviators. It was in the fall that we entered. A sign greeted us to the effect that all novices in learning should be classified alphabetically. In this way many of us were separated from our life long friends but owing to the spirit of good will which has constantly prevailed we soon made new friends. Our first year in this Aviation Field of Knowledge was very interesting. The aeroplanes of Military Training for the boys and Physical Training for the girls afforded great pleasure. Then too, there were Social and Athletic aeroplanes. One morning Donald Leahy arrived after the aeroplanes had started on their daily trip. Miss Wieland saw him running toward the Algebra aeroplane and called, “See here, young man, I want to talk to you!” Not understanding what her duty was, Don yelled back, “I ain’t got no time to talk now. I’m late already.” The Indoor Circus was one of the large aeroplanes that our class enjoyed especially. We took very exciting trips during our first and second years. How well we remember Bob Smiley and Joseph Selzer as Prince Charmings! Yes, and Florence Jeck with flaxen braids in her Dutch Dance. Eleanor Sykes was a jolly clown and sold balloons. Then too, there was the fish pond operated by Miss Dana with Dorothy Books in charge. The booths were many and beautiful and filled with everything imaginable. While taking her class on a trip in the English aeroplane, Miss Cowing once called for a theme on London and was surprised to find the following, “The people of London are noted for their stupidity.” Clara Holbury was asked where she got that idea. “Why,” replied Clara, “it says in the text book that the population of London is very dense.” The second and third years introduced many new aeroplanes such as Chemistry, Law, Civics and Higher Algebra. During these two years, Lincoln enjoyed the honor of having the basketball aeroplane win the championship. Mr. Monks piloted many aeroplanes, Law, Civics, Economics and History were among his favorites. He was also the pilot of Debating and through his wise guidance this machine won several rewards. This instructor always required a ten page theme from his students at the close of each term. Glen LeVake handed one in which seemed almost too good. “Are you sure this is absolutely original?” questioned pilot Monks. “Well,” answered Glen, “You might find some of the words in the dictionary.” “Quite original,” we all agreed. One plane was missing at Lincoln Field -the one named Writing. This caused the instructors a great deal of trouble. Mr. Kerr wrote on the Algebra paper of Raymond Strasser, “Please T () M E write more legibly.” After examining these words carefully Ray took the paper to pilot Kerr and asked anxiously, ‘‘What is this you have written on this paper?” Our class was organized the early part of the fourth year. For President we chose Donald Leahy an athletic genius with a winning smile. Eleanor Sykes as Vice-President, Florence Jeck as Secretary and Eugene Gunn as Treasurer made up our main governing body. We chose blue and silver as our class colors, the American Beauty as our flower and “Scientia est Poten-tia” for our motto. The Lincoln Field has many clubs that may be enjoyed by- all. The Friendship, Commercial, Science and G. A. A. are clubs for the girls, but the Glee club, Dramatic and French club have afforded pleasure to both boys and girls. The Glee club gave a minstrel show and musicale in which several of our own class took part. Bessie Fisher was charming as a Japanese boy. ‘‘Green Stockings” given by the Dramatic club displayed the great talent at Lincoln and our own William Kur-zenberger as a hero. We all remember that when we were little freshmen, we sat in the balcony and listened to the orations of the seniors. The Oration aeroplane was the one we all dreaded but when it came our own turn to take a trip in this machine we found the journey one of real pleasure, though the start was usually made with some fear and trembling. One Friday Mrs. Herbst came to hear her son Clifford give his oration. After being introduced to John Wilcox she said, ‘‘So you go to the same school with Clifford.” “Yes,” he answered 37 thoughtfully, ‘We both sleep in the same Latin class.” Mr. Shiftman asked Bill Hieber how many wars the United States had engaged in. “Four,” replied Bill, brilliantly. “Enumerate them.” Bill responded readily, “One, two, three and four.” Brilliant boy! While piloting the aeroplane History Miss Wakeman discussed the career of George Washington. Turning to Francis Brainard she asked, “What was Washington's Farewell Address?” “Heaven, I believe,” was Francis’ answer. Our class owes thanks to the kindness and patience of Miss Denison and Miss Van Fleet who have always been ready with suggestions. That reminds me that one morning Miss Van Fleet asked Joseph Horky what a synonym was. Always ready to talk, Joseph responded, “A synonym is a word you write in place of another when you can’t spell the other one.” Quite true, for most of us, I’m sure. The informals and other social affairs given by our class were most successful and enjoyable. These were the happiest times in our lives and we shall never forget them. All this we owe to our executive committee who were ever ready to exert themselves in our behalf. It was at one of these affairs that Eugene Gunn told Jessie Mackey that his brother was just the opposite of himself, Jessie immediately replied, “Oh, I should so love to meet him!” Our aeroplane trips at Lincoln have been now completed and we are going to say goodbye, but always in our memories will live the history of our class at Lincoln High. We need no memorandum to bring back our school days for in our heart it will live forever. Here’s to the class of '23! T O M E 30 Three hundred years ago Shakespeare said, “All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players.” Some are destined to play an important role in the drama of life while others will have only a humble part. As our high school career is swiftly drawing to a close we, the June class of 1923, look to the vast future with eager hopes and yet not without some forebodings. What position will each of us occupy in this great scheme of things? What will be our station in life? Being in a curious state of mind I visited my friend Professor Utelhum, a noted crystal gazer who favored me with the following story: Time and the tide wait for no man. I see the years roll by and in the crystal I behold the year 1943. Your class president, Don Leahy, is a retired politician of national renown. Last year because of the support given by the women to his opponent Fred Courtright, Mr. Leahy was defeated in his efforts to become Senator from Ohio on an Anti-Cigarette Platform. Dorothy Adolph and Miriam Anderson have entered the field of politics and in a recent election gave material aid to Mr. Courtright, while opposed to them were Charlene Bateman and Eleanor Schmotzer, two able lieutenants of Don Leahy. Edwinetta Schumann has become noted for her wonderful decisions as the first woman judge in the supreme court of Florida. Dorothy Washburn and Lucille Cook are other members of the class of ’23 who have reached the heights of their ambitions as women lawyers. Eugene Gunn is another eminent jurist from the class of ’23. As a member of the firm of: Rifle, Cannon and Gunn, Attorneys at law he is engaged in many law suits of national interest. John Wilcox, the recently elected Mayor of Cleveland, is emulating Fred Kohler, mayor who gained fame in his term from 1922-23. The Honorable Mr. Wilcox has ordained that all public property be painted a beautiful scarlet hue and has in this manner brought down the wrath of Warren Ripley, the president of the Cleveland Chamber of Commerce, upon his honorable dome (head). Bertha Froelich and Ethel Beck now head the woman’s party of this country and in the recent elections they advocated the passing of a law which restricts the length of the hair on lap dogs to five inches. Dorothy Books and Stella Holecek as well as Mabel Herron and Alice Griebnau are teaching school at Lincoln. Elmer Pimsner is the track coach at the Old Soldier’s Home in Sandusky. Eleanor Hoffman is the physical director at the Western Reserve College for Women while a like position at the Erie College is held by Morgan Craytor, William Blazie and Max Bogdas are Professors of English at Harvard and Yale respectively. In the halls of the Case School of Applied Science Edward Kossman, an instructor in higher mathematics is explaining a difficult point to a backward student. Clarence Kilmer is a teacher of elocution. His latest article in which he proves that “proper oral function is necessary for clear articulation” is attracting national attention. T O M K 40 Roselyn Pratt and Clara Holbury conduct a dancing academy whose splendor and beauty is unsurpassed in the whole country. It was there that William Kurzenburger established the new world’s marathon dancing record two years ago by dancing 1 month, 2 weeks, 13 hours, 43 minutes, 24 and 2-5 seconds. Eleanor Sykes and Bessie Fisher are idolized by millions of movie fans. Their rise to fame was miraculous when they entered the movies ten years ago, and ever since they have been the drawing cards for the largest crowds on record. Alma Schultz and Anna Maraschky are on the stage and at present are still playing on Broadway after a year’s run of the play, “The Man Who Thought He Knew Women,” by Marvin Ollom and Norman Young, two successful writers who have in recent years collaborated in the writing of their plays. Lucille Kamman and Eleanor Ferenz recently appeared in D. W. Griffith’s “Why Men Go Wrong,” by Harry Fritz, a noted scenario writer. The production was well received by New York. The co-stars appeared in person and were welcomed by a thunderous applause. Mr. Fritz now' is working on a play entitled ‘When Love Grows Cold.” William Morris is an eminent preacher of the gospel. He is looked up to by his whole congregation. Florence Jeck and Jessie Mackey are successful business women of w’orld-wide renown. Their chain of millinery stores sets the styles for women of all nations and they now plan to set up business at the North Pole. Joe Seltzer is the millionaire owner of the Lake-de-Coca Bottling Co. The fortune he makes from soft drinks alone reaches far into the millions. Amor, Banwell, Hemeter and Co. does a wonderful business in trans-Atlantic airplane transportation. Upon close inspection the general manager may be recognized as Carl Chervenka of ’23. The record for the trip is held by Meta Eckel and Fannie Hilbert each of whom make the journey in twenty-three hours and fifty-nine minutes. Phyllis Bosworth is the “Millionaire Timber Queen,” who owns large tracts of valuable timber in the Sahara Desert w-hich has recently been reclaimed by the irrigation schemes of Ralph Dodge and Frank Flochbart, two noted engineers w ho devised the method of getting water by radio. Jennie Schram has succeeded where Edison failed and is now’ living a life of ease upon the dividends that her stock in the Cleveland Foundry Co„ which makes iron cows that give only cream, brings to her. Warren Brooker is the discoverer of the shell-less peanut which is harvested monthly and which gnnvs already salted. Mildred Sudyk and Helen Wodzinski have become tillers of the soil. Their farm products can be found on all of the markets. Helen Steffen and Alice Daley have recently formed a merger with Pearle Shankland and Irene Slepicka and their combined steel mills control the output of steel plates. The articles of Katherine Chilson and Alice Hanulya are eagerly read by all women. Their treatises on love and marriage are well worth the w’hile to read. Ray Strasser, Howard Hartman, John McRae and Alfred Gerlach control the government of the new republic of Ru-barbia. Clayton Kropp was recently made T M E II commander-in-chief of the army of the Republic of Honduras. “Jack” Mackey is the world’s atom weight champion by virtue of his victory over John Sorger ten years ago. Since then he has been inactive because he cannot find any boxer of his weight who is willing to fight him. He now plans to go out of his class to fight Adelbert Hubach, the gnat weight champion. Marie Chaloupka and Katherine Ha-berstroh are pursuing their studies in science. Frances Mock and Frances Brainard are famed as interior decorators. Their work adds the distinctive touch to every chicken coop in the rich section of Char-don. Emil Sovish is a well to do doctor. His prescriptions are everywhere in demand. William Hieber and Adelbert Guel-zow are successful merchants. In 1931 Hieber bought out the Geiger Co. and soon afterwards Guelzow took over the Marshall Drug Stores. “Mert” Yost is a partner in the largest florist shop in Northern Ohio. The firm of Stark, Sauerwein and Co. sets the advance styles in men’s clothes. S. S. is the watchword of Broadway. Robert Brooker has dedicated his life to making a paradise out of Florida. Clifford Herbst and James DeSalvo are becoming known as authorities on difficult points of commercial law. Another of their contemporaries is Frank Za-roski whose text-book is being widely used in many schools.

When we start in the first grade we are on the bottom step. Term after term we climb and sometimes the brighter pupils can take two steps in one term while the weaker ones will not be able to make even the next step. After we have climbed eight years we stand on the top step of that flight and we again take a step and lo we are on the bottom of the high school steps. So again we toil and after eight more terms we have reached the summit of this flight and also another floor. On this floor our roads will part, some will go on with the college steps, others will try the steeper and more cruel steps of the world. The higher we get the steeper the steps, but may we ever go onward to that ultimate peak, “Success.’ After we have reached this summit and have aged, we will look down the steps and always will come those sweet memories of Lincoln High. The Inevitable In the course of human events, the inevitable is bound to happen. Whether that inevitable should be encouraging or distressing, whether it inspires one to great things or presents seemingly unsurmountable obstacles, it must be met. If it is a pleasant occurrence, one's life will proceed smoothly until the next time. If it is an obstacle, life may seem hopeless and the combat of the hindrance seem useless. It is at this time that many people come upon the turning point in their lives. If they sink and say with conviction that the thing is impossible or too great to overcome, the Earth is losing nothing by it. It merely means another ward on the “never say die” people. The people who keep this world of ours going don’t know what the word impossible means. Do you? When you come to meet your inevitable, don’t shrink or cower, but surmount it and you will become a power upon this world, instead of a pauper. 4.N T O M K T 0 M K 49 Lincoln Log Staff Editorial Staff ------------------ ____John Cowley, Valeria Grunau Hilda Malon Business Manager__________________ ___Meta Eckel, Clarence Kilmer Circulating Manager __Carl Chervenka Assistants _____________George Loeber. ____Robert Mackey, Charles Vogel Boosters______________Earl Glasenapp, ________________Carl Chervenka Literary______________Berta Lehman, _________Janet Forbes, Jack Foster Who’s Who___________________Jack Foster School Items______________Ruth Glover, ___________________Hilda Malon Societies ________________Florence Jeck Athletics____Donald Leahy, Joe Horky Library___________________Edna Lempke Alumni ________________ Robert Smiley, ________________ Dorothy Hake Junior High______________Elias Cordyak Wit and Humor_______Valeria Grunau, ______________________Lois Wedel Artists ______________ Earl Glasenapp, ______________________Lois Wedel Typists_______________Alice Griebenau, _________________Eleanor Hoffman 50 T O M K T O M K 51 Orchestra First Violin Wenger, Clarence, ’25 Concert Master Ballash, Alvin, ’25 Illis, Anthony, ’23 Vice-Pres.

Coach Cochran did his utmost to secure a game with our West side neighbor but all was in vain and we were forced to divide the honors, if there are any due to the team that is a runner up.

Clifford Herbst as you know When he laughs he always cries; Takes out his dainty handkerchief And wipes his weepy eyes. Miss Chaloupka always has her lessons In our Civics class. We always fill with joy when with her, She’s such a pleasant lass. Vesta is so very quiet We hardly know that she’s about; We never hear a sigh of sorrow Or a joyous shout. Mildred Sudyk moves along So steady on her way, Working with us through the years Happy all the day. Lincoln's famous actor Bill Kurzenberger by name, He makes a hit with the ladies— They nearly go insane. Helen Wodzinski is a dandy, Did you ever see her without candy? Always come where is a sack She will find the sweet that you lack Mabel Herron, the dignified, She never is alone, For she must have Fannie by her side Or you will hear her moan. If you are ever hungry And want a bite to eat, Just go to Fanny Hilbert’s bakery, It's on Twenty-fifth street. Anna Kandora, as you see, Studies very hard, She a nurse would like to be With record all unmarred. Dot Hemeter, as you see, Is as gay as can be, When she’s gliding round the floor She will dance and then dance more. Ruth Eberwine, as you’ll agree, Is just as sweet as she can be; She has such very pretty hair She’d have it bobbed but she wouldn’t dare. 70 T O M K After Alice Griebnau’s gone ’Tis on everybody’s lips, We wonder who Miss Waller will get To collect the absent slips. Of all the girls in our class The most bashful, I declare, Is Clara Holbury, quiet lass, We hardly know she’s there. After Elizabeth Hunt is done, We wonder who will be the one Out of the next senior class To take her place in front of the glass. Our Secretary Florence Jeck, On her we can depend, The minutes that she writes us We never need amend. ’Tis same when at a dance Where often she does go, You surely can depend She’ll not step on your toe. Clifford Sourwein unlike his name Is sweet, and never works; But if some lesson he’d fail to get He’d know that trouble lurks. Annie Laurie will start The tears to run When the selection is rendered By our Eugene Gunn. Adelbert Mader is very absent-minded, But to the charms of a girl he is not blinded; In classes he is a bright and shining mark, While at picnics, girls, he is rather a lark. He was upstairs, he was downstairs, He was outside, he was in, Carl was always hustling, And he always wore a grin. Harry Fritz, the boy who likes the lasses Fat ones, slim ones, short, or tall; He has a different one in each of his classes, There’s a place in his heart for them all. Mercer Yost, who ever saw her sad? She smiles through all the hours; She doesn’t like her studies so well— But she loves florist’s flowers. Dot Washburn always happy With her ball and bat; Every night she practiced Till she had the game down pat. If you like good music And not a noise like filin’, Just have Anthony Ellis Play upon his violin. Arthur Stark is a studious lad, You’ll always find him busy; If you should look at his card It surely would make you dizzy. Our class historian, Phylis, dear, Whose pleasant laugh we love to hear, Wouldn’t it be sad and wouldn’t we sigh If she would get as sober as you and I? Meta Eckel to be prepared May need a rolling pin, Poor Clayton, Dear, don’t get scared— Just duck when you come in. Linda Amor, I’m glad to say, Has a very friendly way; She always smiles at every one, No matter what is said or done. Lillian Taylor with quiet ways Is always pleasant through the days, She always has her lessons well, But never studies hard, I’ve heard tell. T 0 31 K Edwinetta is an actress Very fair of face, To see her picture in “The Press” Caused Fat’s heart to race. Never in a hurry Is our classmate Homer Scott; At least he never is at school— But perhaps when he calls on Dot. John Sorger loves to skate, We all know that is true; Does he feel the same toward Kate? Well, I’ll leave that to you. Frank Flachbart With face so fair, Fell in the ocean And got a wave in his hair. Gladys Jenkins, so they say, Comes to school every day, Was never known to rip a class, She surely is a marvelous lass. Ruth Banwell, energetic lass And great in mathematical powers, In our senior algebra class Has spent many joyful hours. Adelbert made his presence known By his pleasant, care-free air, E’en though you did not see him You could feel his presence there. Fred sat in class behind his book, His mind was far away. There may be a woman in the case, I know not: Who may say? Frances wears a sober look Upon her face in class. But this same Frances out of class Is a smiling, happy lass. 71 Boys, have you noticed Max Bogdas of late? Of the '23 class He’s the fashion plate. Our president, Donald Leahy, We wish to honor thee; For the hours that you- have lent So the last year that we’ve spent Would be one that we’d remember Bill Hieber is a chap who only Lately joined our class, He scarce had time to meet us all, But he surely made friends fast. He made athletic scribes sit up, At basketball he starred. He carved his name in the hall of fame As Lincoln High's right guard. A little frog does signify The beautiful land of France, But to Dot Adolph don’t use it as an alibi Or from anger she will dance. Katherine Chilson is great in law She rivals Mr. Monks, I know she lends a helping hand To those that teacher flunks. Anna Kapsar may be smart In her work at school, But she can show you up as dumb With a needle and her spool. Who did you say you’re looking for? Was it a “her” or “him?” Oh you’re hunting Bertha Froelich, Well, you’ll find her in the gym. We honor Eleanor HofTman Who wrote our gay class poem; We wish her joy and happiness Whether abroad or at home. T O M K Miss Dorothy Books Thinks she runs the show In the Friendship Club As the girls all know, But why feel sad And take it to heart? You ought to be glad We can’t all be smart. As a kodak fiend Howard Hartman can’t be beat, He takes pictures of every game and field meet; Even of his Margie does he take, And pretty smiling pictures of her make. Here is a girl who would teach kids to speak With wondrous speed and ease The language used by the ancient Greek Or Yiddish and Portuguese. Marvin Ollom goes toot, toot, On his little horn, In the orchestra he is a flame. That makes all others mourn. Here’s to Gunboat Horky With his dainty feet. Though plump, he’ll never be porky; For all that he does eat. There was a pan of fudge From which Bob Smiley would not budge; So if any girl wants him for her man. Be sure to make of fudge, a pan. Lucille Kamman as a quaint little Dutch maid, Has yet to realize That if she went to a masquerade She would take first prize. Charlene was an Indian squaw On the Aboriginal set, She wore her haid a la Minnnehaha Fastened with a bear claw barrett. Here we herald Ray Strasser, At the Paderewski act he’s a tosser, Give him a sheet of music and he will play Enough music to last many a day. Helen would a worker be Among the lower classes Bringing joy and plenty To down-trodden masses. Ripley, of old West Tech, That is the port from which he came; He is so very shy But little men oft win fame. Alma Schulze, a quiet girl. Whose aspiration is college, She studies, each hour a pearl In her chain of knowledge. As a hunter brave and bold Frank Zarowski would turn a bear rather cold; He has shot at many a wren and jay. He’ll be a cop some day. Here's to the young man With mahogany hair, Cavalier James DeSalvo Ready to do and dare. Our classmate, Ralph Dodge, Squeaks tenor so high McCormick fades away When this singer is nigh. Clayton Kropp just rambled right along, In English he was ’midst the throng; So Miss Van Fleet tried to tell him he was wrong, But Clayton just rambled right along. T 0 M E 73 Eleanor Schmotzer is a nice little girl, And she studies, oh, so hard! It fairly leaves one’s head in a whirl To look at her report card. To teach wee kids their A, B, C’s Is Irene’s aim in life; And they must learn the use of “please” And thus avoid much strife. Farmer Craytor spends his time Sprinkling fields with snowy lime So the crops that he does sow With rapidity will grow. We wonder why Bob Brooker blushes In our English Class; And out in the hall he rushes When the classes pass. We know ’tis there he sees her, Pretty lass, she blushes, too. So let's not tease her, Let’s find something to do. Warren Brooker, sad to say, With all money runs away, Especially that in girls’ pocketbooks— All they get back are pleasant looks. If you would have some task That you would like well done Just Sophie Unger ask, You’ll find her just the one. John McRae is known quite well, In school and social circles he is there to tell How he and his friend Bob Perform the Damon and Pythias job. Jennie Schram as one of our speakers Has worked for the honor for years. So we hope that everyone her speech hears Is able to be moved to tears. Alice Nevseta with precise bobbed hair Is a girl that in her grammar uses care, With her verbs and her nouns She makes the rest of us look like clowns. Harry finds strength and muscle in his arms So he would show great skill in golf, He’ll find the game has many charms. Hurrah for you, Lubeshkoff! Roselyn Pratt as you all know Has never got grades that were low, She studies and fumes and frets Until all her lessons she gets. Eleanor Sykes, our vice-president Is so eager us all to please Don’t look at her Eddie, girls. Or your graves will be graced with sweet peas. Edwin Kossman is a quiet lad, You might think he was asleep, But then, as you’ve oft heard said. Still waters run quite deep. Elmer came to school one day Feeling kind of shy, A girl to Elmer said “Hello” And he began to cry. Dancing is Del’s great delight He goes out stepping every night, And when to dance he has begun, His Algebra is left undone. Lucille to all is very fair, With her dark brown curly hair. But it sure a mystery does seem That she so loves Marshall’s ice cream. “Bob” Minto is a dapper lad Who came from West Tech High He smiles and shows two cunning dimples When a maiden passes by. 74 T 0 M K Bessie Fisher all the day Is so happy in her play, With her dollies and her toys, Never looks at naughty boys. This young lady Would try her hand in writing. She’ll have copyrights Second only to Pat Pending. Here is a girl with fingers fleet As over the keys they quickly run, She aspires to be a Corona athlete And win the typist’s marathon. Alice Daley shows us every day What we don't know in English Class; But we’ll show her in every way, That we, too, can pass. Then there’s little Ethel Beck With her saucy looks, She’s so sweet and demure What does she care for books? Jessie Mackey, so it’s said, Always blushes when you say ‘Red.” Now red is a color that is bright Can she be afraid that Red will bite? Frances Mock at all the parties greets us So that’s the reasan why She and Johnny Wilcox always meet us But you can’t tell us she’s shy. She has the voice of a nightingale Singing to the moon And when she gargles with gingerale She rivals the call of the loon. Kathryn Haberstroh is a fair little girl That captivates everyone when she does laugh and pout; She sets every fellow’s head in a whirl, And for her they do shout. Here’e to Pearl Shankland, The girl with curly, chestnut hair, One of the wisest in the band Perhaps she may be major. When you hear our gay class song Which was written just for us, Think as you are singing along Of Berta who went to all the fuss. If you would take a walk And wish to show some speed Just Skinny Morris ask And he will take the lead. She sits behind a pile of books As solemn as an owl, But she is full of sunny looks We’ve never seen her scowl. T O M E i. Wouldn't It Be Funny If- Adlbert Hubach were a boss?

Here comes Don Leahy! I don’t want him to know my secret; Don Leahy halts before the assem- Gene; Oh! Warren, what time did Blanche come home last night? Warren: She said she was coming at eight, but I still had my hair in curlers when she did come. I’m all fagged out today. We didn’t get home till about twelve. Joe Horky: Your Marcel looks great, honey-bunch. Gene: Did your mother curl them for you? Warren: Well, I like that, I told you once before that Madam Hare is my hair dresser, and say, boys, she gives you the swellest clay pack for only fifty cents. Elmer Pimsner, new entrant very sedate and prim. Elmer: Did you say a clay pack? Do you mean that ghoulish, green mud they’re advertising for a clear complexion. Isn’t mine clear? Everybody looks and gives his assent. Elmer: Well I tell you how I get it that way, but p’ - don’t tell anybody, I havn’t got my method patented yet. Elmer glances about and finding looks of expectation on every one’s face, he lowers his voice. Elmer: Well, every night before I go to bed, I apply a thin coat of Le Page’s stickiest glue to my face, and in the morning Presto! my skin looks like the petals of a lily. Gene: Is that - •------------ Elmer: “Sh! here comes Don Leahy, I don’t want him to know my secret.” Don Leahy halts before the assembled beauty seekers, and speaks in his most bewildered tone of voice. Don Leahy: Why boys, what’s the matter, I’m not intruding, am I? If there is anything you don’t want me to know I’ll go. Don retreats with a crestfallen countenance. Elmer: Boys, that’s mean, I think you’re acting just horrible to the poor boy, especially when he’s feeling so blue T O M K 11 about flunking in Chemistry. Elmer literally flys clown the hall, and overtakes Don. Elmer: Don, darling, don’t cry, the boys didn’t mean a thing they did, I’ll tell you everything and just loads more. Don Leahy : I’m-I’m-sure you-you told them not to say anything when-when you saw m-me coming. (Sobs.) Elmer: Ain’t I your best friend? Don Leahy: Are you? In smiles, combing his flowing locks, he inquires. Don Leahy: What are you boys go- ing to wear to the formal? Gene: I am going to get the pret- tiest silvery gray suit and a new blue shirt. Those are our class colors aren’t they? Warren: Gee! that will look great, I am going to wear ——---------- Elmer, interrupting: I have the lov- liest tangerine silk shirt with a Valentino girdle and I think I’ll get a sort of a tuxedo with a white shirt, they’re awfully cunning. Don Leahy: Did you hear about John Wilcox? He’s going to wear a tuxedo with a white shirt and plain black tie. Chorus: Oh! Laud! Elmer: Don’t you think he is sort of old fashioned? Listen boys, did you hear about Bob Brooker? Lowers his voice as they draw their heads together. Sh !--------scandal. Isn’t that terrible! ! ! He used to be so shy! She’s sort of cute, though! Well of all things I know---------. There goes that old bell, I’m sorry I can’t finish telling you but sh--------- it’s a secret. We’ll get together again some time. Look out—it’s contagious.

V i in. long.— Mr. Monks. T O M K 7 s T O M E 7!« Do you ask his name? Just a few little hints. He isn’t tall. He isn’t short. He has played in many varsity games and has received a sweater. Some time ago we read in the paper of a certain young movie actress who brought with her another woman from Europe to help her in her work. This future movie actress possesses the same last name as our senior who sits in room 308. There! I’ve even told you his name. If you don’t know who he is now you never will for I’ve given up trying to describe him. Who-o-o? Even the youngest “flat” can answer that. She is short, so short that she seems a head shorter than any other member of the senior class. Her hair of course is bobbed and her eyes are sparkling and lively. If you are in the auditorium the fifth period you sure have seen her. She’s a member of the Science Club. Then, too, she belongs to the Friendship. All those who saw the play, “Green Stockings” must surely remember. Don’t you know? Pshaw, you’re a poor guesser. The curtains draw apart and behold we see—but you must guess. If I said his hair was dark, and he was tall would you be getting nearer to the goal? His eyes peer forth from behind a pair of glasses. He is a class speaker and he must be awfully popular because that’s how he got that job. If I recall right he bears the same name of a well known socialist. If I tell you one thing more are you sure that you will get it exactly right? Whenever he approaches a senior that ill-fated person is accosted with the time-worn phrase, “Have you your dues today?” Yes, I knew that last hint would dispel all doubt. Can you tell me who that girl was whom I saw yesterday? She’s always smiling and full of mirth. Her hair is light in color and she is one of the bobbed hair army. She has big -'brown eyes and her nose, like any nose is straight but, oh, it turns up ever so slightly at' the tip. Does she dance? From appearances one would say she does for I haven’t seen her miss one yet. I think you know who I mean now, so what is the use of trying to describe her further? She is dainty and petite. Who, do you ask? Well, that you must guess. She has dark brown hair, bobbed of course, and brown eyes. She joins in many school activities and has been an officer in more than one club. You ask which ones? No, I shan’t tell you that, for then I know you will guess too quickly. This charming young girl sits in Room 308. I know this description is vague, but she is so well known that you must surely know who I mean. 90 90 Ml T O .M K THE ALPHABET Auditorium—A place where you sit and can’t hear anything. Basement—Flats think that it is on the fourth door. Chemistry—Something you like to study. D—What you say when you get one. E—A letter of the alphabet for all we know. Flat Something small like an apartment. Girls—Something needed at dances. Hope—That which precedes a test. Ink—Not to be had in the auditorium. Joke—A specimen of humanity. Keep—Something to lose. Lessons—Something to forget. Math—See Kerr. Noise—Something that a flat is never without. Office- The omnipotent (See the dictionary.) Perfection—Our new building. Question—Something we could never answer. Report Card—Indefinable. Stairway—A life of ups and downs. Teacher—Something we can’t get along without. Uncommon—Five E’s. Veil—To draw over our report cards. Wonder—Something to do when asked a question. X—Indicating that you err. Yesterday—Something you wish for as the quiz comes. Zero—Nothing in our young life. LOVE PROBLEMS Dear Miss Joy: The girls scorn me because I am not good looking. How can I remedy this? I have already tried parting my hair in the middle. Don Leahy. Dear Miss Joy: I am in love with a fellow who lives in the country. Am I too young? Ethel Beck. Dear Miss Joy: I worry about girls all day long. They are in my thoughts always. What can I do? James DeSalvo. Dear Miss Joy: I am very bashful when in the presence of the opposite sex. How can I overcome this? Joe Horky. No, Ichobod, if a man prof, married a lady prof., you would not call their children prophets. Joe Seltzer: Oh yes, those two guys had a circus.” Ethel: ‘‘What two guys?” Joe: ‘‘Barnum and Bailey.” Mr. Monks, speaking of corporations, said, ‘‘What if all the stockholders of a corporation died—what would we have then?” Wise Senior: “A lot of Funerals.” POSITIVELY Frosh: ‘‘Only fools are positive.” Ditto: ‘‘Are you sure?” Frosh: I’m positive.” T 0 M E 81 Johny Wilcox: “What will we name our annual.’' Joe Horky: ‘The Wasp.” John: “That will be good, ’cause maybe the people will be stung.” Since when has it become a custom to autograph on the back of a picture, Dot? We wonder what the reason may be that Mert Yost and Ethel Beck look under the table in the art room so often. Perhaps it is because the table is near the window and there is a clear view obtainable beneath it. The following conversation was heard by the staff Eavesdropper in the auditorium during one of the lunch periods: First: Can you play the piano? Second: I took it for six years. First: Took what? Second: Oh, anything I could lay my hands on. Isn’t it too bad that Waite High doesn’t train her students’ minds in algebra? S’deep stuff eh? Consult “Red” Ollom. Didn’t know we had any hair dressers and dyers in our class did you? For enlightenment interview Carl Cher-venka or John Brzczowski. In spite of “Ed” Kossman’s prophecy, we predict a brilliant future for him as a carpenter or interior finisher and especially as a “floor scraper.” Aren’t we lucky? Just think, two students of our school got on the all-high school orchestra without previously attending Toledo W'aite. Aren’t we proud of our commencement songs? Hallelujah, forever, (so to speak.) It has recently become known to a few in the class of the marvelous effect of potato salad. “Eddie” Schuman, we predict, might start a thriving business selling—“Schuman’s Potato Revivifier.” So E. Pimsner likes to drive through Ridge Rd. cemetery. How does Scotty’s auto ride, Valaria? We wonder what the inebriates have to do with illiteracy in America, don’t we, Warren Brooker? Yep, Max Bogdas is right up on the styles. He donned his thatched roof on Tuesday, May 15. Ethel: “During the dance Jack kept letting his hand slip down my back. Mert: Did you rebuke him? Ethel: Yes, I told him to keep it up. Miss Mallory said, “The girls left the hotel in a hurry last Saturday as they all had places to go to—” We wonder why— She also said, “Even Eleanore Sykes’ grandfather called for her.” My, but Eddie must have looked old Saturday. Ethel: “Ruth, give me back mv pen- cil.” Ruth: “I won’t.” Ethel: “Think I gave it to you—I let you take it to use only.” Ruth: “That’s exactly what Pm do- ing—using it.” Isn’t it funny Mercer always buys our flowers at Mercer’s flower shop? Boys: When you meet a girl in the corridor going to class three times in three periods, that’s not coincidence, that’s a frame-up. T 0 M K S2 Villanelle There's no place as dear as the woodland to me, Such wonderful things of interest I note When wandering there in some good company. Along in our pathway sweet mosses we see, And treasures we find in such places remote, There's no place as dear as the woodland to me. We glory in finding a wonderful tree, And under its branches some time we devote When wandering there in some good company. A symphony chorus of birds in great glee, Songs gush forth from each individual throat, There’s no place as dear as the woodland to me. How pleasant and happy a mortal can be, And wonderful poems of nature we quote, When wandering there in some good company. Way out from the school room and poems I’d flee, Never once let me dream of those that I wrote, There’s no place as dear as the woodland to me When wandering there in some good company. The warm days of spring bring forth delicate flowers, The jonquil and daisies and violets so blue, That peep through the grass after long April showers. We stroll through the woodlands and pass many hours, Our feet gently treading the moss wet with dew, The warm days of spring bring forth delicate flowers. The birds flitting brightly through green leafy bowers, Add music and joy to the brilliant hue, That peeps through the grass after long April showers. The bright sun is full of its life giving powers, The gentle rains coaxing the tender shoots through, The warm days of spring bring forth delicate flowers. Surprises wait us in this world of ours, The purples and yellows and greens fresh and new, That peep through the grass after long April showers. The leaflets are bursting on vine covered towers, Of old oaks that guard nature’s colors so true, That peep through the grass after long April showers. The warm days of spring bring forth delicate flowers. T O M K S3 Facts About Basketball Not Found In Spaulding 1. Basketball should be played in a tin shop. Everyone is trying to make a bucket. 2. The basket is an object, not unlike a peach basket, which hangs on the wall. The basket holds the ball like a sieve holds water. 3. The coach is the man who plays the game before the team goes on the floor. His business is to tell you how little you know about it. A coach is to a team as drum sticks are to a drum. 4. The rooters are the people who think they are playing the game. They know more about it than those on the floor. 5. A referee is a person whose business it is to take the joy out of a basketball game. He is most important on the six-man defense. The losers could have won had it not been for him. 6. The timekeeper is a cruel human being who conspires with the referee to blow the whistle either too soon, or too late, for your team to win. 7. The opposition is made up of five “smart alecks” who try to cripple your team for the rest of the season. The referee always favors them. 8. A guard is a fellow who should surround the other side when it has the ball. 9. Often the most backward fellow on a team plays forward. 10. A “toss-up” is called by the referee when he sees our team about to make a basket. 11. The team that wins is the one that has the most money—according to the loser. 12. “Dog your man” means stick your finger in his eye, slap him, or kick him when the referee isn’t looking. 13. When someone yells, “Cover your man,” it doesn’t mean to throw a blanket over him. 14. “Dogging the ball” means not to let the referee have it to toss up. Keep it yourself and when the game is over, take it home as a souvenir for a memory book. 15. A tournament is a device by which the best team is chosen—a good method if your team wins; not a fair test at all when it loses.

Lincoln High has been very fortunate this semester in having had two public entertainments given by its pupils. The pupils and teachers in charge spent a great deal of time and energy in preparing for these affairs and their faithfulness was rewarded by a large attendance of interesting and admiring friends. First, on April 27, came the Musical and Minstrel Show presented by the Musical Department under the direction of Miss Mallory. The Girls’ Glee Club, the Boys’ Glee Club, The Orchestra-all had a part on the program, as well as individual members of each. The second part of the program was a minstrel show- for which members of the Boys’ Glee Club were responsible. The whole affair was a very successful and enjoyable one and netted about three hundred dollars, of which one hundred dollars was given to the scholarship fund.. The comedy, Green Stockings, was presented on May 18. For this the pupils had been working very hard under the efficient direction of Miss March-and, and a very excellent production resulted. Miss Miller and Mrs. Betts, in charge of the sale of tickets were most energetic and two large and enthusiastic audiences greeted the performers. Patrons of Lincoln High plays were pleased to see new stage furniture. The bouquet of pink roses was presented by Knoble Brothers.
