HILLGOP ECHOES 1939 ks, LAlike igi igs. (= rakes G 2 yatlilllep lads AE® 38) Dedication Clark Underwood With sincere and grateful appreciation of the devoted service which he has rendered for twenty-five years, the pupils of our school dedicate this number of the annual to Mr. Underwood. For a quarter of a century, Mr. Underwood—— Shorty —-as we all call him--has spent countless hours making school life more comfortable, happier, and profitable for Lodi's youth. Undoubtedly he doesn't rem ember the numberless little things that he has done for us, but remem- brance should be our duty. How often he has sighed when he saw the floors covered with bits of paper, mud from our shoes, and the loosened bolts of our squeaky desks or when he heard the complaints about the temperature of our rooms! What pleasure he has had jesting with the good natured pupils! He too has appreciated our kind and thoughtful little deeds as well as we have his. ae Gee fe ak Ci yHilltep Eien eens) Board of Education C. H. LANCE J. E. RICE .C. H.

HIGHLIGHTS : The Junior-Senior Banquet of 1938 was held at Bunker Hill and we paid the bill.

The Junior-Senior Banquet of 1939 found the class of 39 as the honored guests.

Phil's bicycle ride through the hall. Many of the occasions, such as the teacher's annual trip to Cleve- land, George Washington's birthday, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and the scarlet fever quarantine, added to the enjoyment of this class of 39 . Graduation for most of the members of the class. LOWLIGHTS : Ruth Konrad's ability to play baseball. Many detention hall slips and excuse blanks had to be endured. Grade card time always brought a few headaches, because once in a while, some of the grades were near that pretty, red line. Every time someone suffered with a cold or a tummyache on Satur- day or Sunday, they lost it by Monday. Winner of faculty geranium for poorest assembly program in 1938. FANCIES : Little Ernie Rowland, tears splashing down his cheeks, was forced to sit with Beryl Lance in the fourth grade. Helen Yoder's kiss was most graciously placed on the cheek of Red Rice during senior assembly. The love affairs of the Lodi senior girls and the Homer alumni boys were simply heart-breaking. Tootie's attempt was futile in trying to win Fritzie's heart. Several senior boys made daily trips to Seville and not to see the town $£1227777 Stanley's weakness for visiting Seville girls. Marie Farner taught Noony the type of French she used. Hollis Knapp conside red himself the Romeo of the class, because of his remarkable ability to get dates. 15 ie Beles fe = SENIOR CLASS WILL Arlie Bagley wills his love for Betty to his brother, in case he tires of Nadine.

The Junior Class, which is one of the go-gettin'est classes on record, shows a marked spirit of agressiveness and ability. They pride themselves especially on their representation in every extra- curricular activity—-and justly so. This class has also maintained a high scholastic standing, partly because of good-natured competition, and part- ly because they are just naturally endowed with what it takes. The fol- lowing have participated in the annual scholarship and commercial contests: Walter Bowman, Grace Seeley, Edna Addis, Sara Funk, William Grannis, Mary Alice Snell, Harold Garberich, Laura DeVoe, Jack Sommer, Dorothy Oswald, James Peterson, Mary Stancin, Dorothy Mace. Several of. these competed in the district tests at Kent also. This class, which started as a group of twenty-three bewildered and bewildering six year olds, has gradually increased in size until it now numbers forty-eight. Of these, ten are from Lafayette. In their Freshman year--with their high school careers just begun, they elected as their president, William Grannis. In their Sophomore year they elected Grace Seeley, and this year they again displayed their sound judgment by electing Walter Bowman. There are two outstanding events in the life of every Junior —- the Junior class play and the Junior-Senior banquet. This year's play, Girls Will Be Boys , was well directed by Miss Dorothy Tittle and it potently displayed the dramatic talents of the cast. Although the promis yet to come, there have been rumors that.it is to be the best one in years. In the social life of the school, the Juniors certainly do not take a back seat. In art, the outstanding exponents are: Wayland Fetzer, Harold Garberich, Dorothy iace, Helen Gyure, Alex Czeiter; in athletics -- Junior Jamison, Charles Rice, Harold Chapman, Jack Schaeffer; and in music-Grace Seeley, Dorothy Mace, Vivian Gossard, Gusti Winkler. The Junior class has also been well represented in oratory, debate, dramatics, and many clubs. If you doubt it, just glance through this book and see for yourself. Are you convinced?

Oe ytHilltop hones: RE = Chorus and Glee Clubs MUSIC IN LODI The above group represents the mixed chorus, boys' glee club and girls' glee club. One of the outstanding achievements of the year was the presentation of the Mikado by members of these organizations. During the past few years chorus work at the Lodi school has been carried on in a fine way. Groups from our school have received excellent recognition in county and sectional festivals. These organizations are directed by Mrs. Hobart and Mrs. Schmidt. Lodi is also proud of its ensembles, its orchestra, and its band. At the present time, the orchestra is made up of thirty-nine players, with well-balanced orchestrations. During the year this group furnished msic for class plays, community gatherings, and assembly programs. The Lodi High School band is made up of sixty members. This group gives many concerts in the course of a year. Each summer for the past several years the Lodi business men have employed this band to furnish concerts, and with the money from this sou rce, the band has been able to purchase uniforms. Del- mar Graff is the director of the band and the orchestra. Music of the Lodi school is a part of the Medina County music system. This county has won national recognition for its most excellent music program which offers instruction from grades one to twelve in all phases of public school music. 45 LOS LEER C.

This property now belongs to Mr. G. P. Mong of Lodi. In the good old days the principal studies were readin', 'ritin', and 'rithmetic. Miss Diadema Churchill and a Mr. Tim- othy were among the first teachers to instruct the children, numbering from four to eight at a time. During the years which followed it became necessary to divide the township into four or five school districts. Four one-room school houses and a two-room school house were con- structed within the township. A little later, by virtue of an act passed by the Ohio Legis— lature on April 9, 1867, a special school dis- trict was created, embracing the territory within the limits of the town of Lodi. In the same year a movement to construct an Academy in Lodi was started by Mr. Henry Ainsworth with a subscription of $25,000.v0. An old apple orchard was purchased for the site, and the building was completed in 1871. A Boarding Hall, now the Sanford Apartments, was constructed to house the pupils. The school was short-lived. due to post-Civil: War conditions. Pro- fessor Haskins was the first principal; he was followed by Professor H. N. Miller, Reverend McIntyre, and -Professor W. R. Grannis. In the spring of 1878 the school was closed for an indefinite time. In April, 1879 the question of purchasing the academy building for the use of a union school was submitted to the voters of Lodi Special School District; the issue carried by an overwhelming majority. John Warren, T. G. Loomis, and E. W. Minns were elected directors of the dis— trict at the same election. The building, which had originally cost $25,000.00 was sold to the town for $5,000.00. In the year 1879 the State Department of Education chartered the first high school in Harrisville Township, and the school opened Sept—- ember 2, with Mr. S. S. Thomas as Superintendent. Four years later the first class to be graduated from the newly established school received its diplomas. A very interesting incident concerning this class was that they celebrated the fiftieth anniversary of this first commencement on May 26, 1933 at the regular high school commencement exercises. At This time, fifty years after their graduation, all members were living, four of them being present on the occasion. The members of this class were: Elizabeth Warren, Jennie Redfield Miner, George M. Gilbert, Charles Palmer, and P. C. Fullerton. Mrs. Jeannette Persons, a teacher of this first class, was also present. In 1914, because of crowded conditions, a modern building was erected in front of the old Academy. The old building was re- modeled, wired for electricity, and improved to insure proper ventilation. The auditorium was converted into a gymasiun. 54 res, Gx : uliles a iees RE = Between 1910 and 1920 a great consolidation movement took place in ae from time to time one-room schools in the outlying districts were closed and pupils were taken by horse-drawn ve— hicles to the central school at Lodi. Many of the oe living residents of Lodi can relate interesting experiences of incidents which took place while aati bon riding to and from school on these vans. At the present, all transportation is by motor bus. aaa of the increase in enrolment, the construction of a new build ing was started in 1920 and completed in 1921. This new building affords all modern high school conveniences, with its fine new gymasium, auditor- ium, home economics room, and chemistry and physics laboratories. The cost of this building was $120,000.00. The members of the Board of Educ- ation at this time were: E. A. Rowland, C. M. Crum, I. F. Williams, C. l. Briggs, and Mrs. Clarice Whitacre. The curriculum and course of study at the Lodi school has kept pace with modern trends in education. The faculty has grown in number until at the present time it consists of eighteen full-time teachers and five part- time county teachers on the staff. Lodi High School has a reputation for high scholarship and standards. In county scholarship tests Lodi has won first place for the last six years. New courses in the school which have become very popular during the past few years are: science, music, art, home economics, industrial arts, physical education, and commercial courses. In 1931 the Lafayette Board of Education started to send its high school pupils to the Lodi school rather than to Medina for their high school training. This brought about an increase of about fifty each year in the senior high school. In 1938 the enrolment had grown until Lodi graduated fifty seniors in one year. At the present time there are about five hundred students in the Lodi school. It may be interesting to our readers to know the names of the men who have served as superintendents of the Lodi school. Following Mr. S. S. Thomas in the position of superintendent was Mr. Lee, who filled this pos- ition for two years. Then came B. F. Hoover, who filled the superinten- dency for ten years. Next in the procession was F. G. Mauer, who served for two years. F. M. Plank and Mr. Elliott each served in this capacity for one year. After Mr. Elliott, J. F. Smith served as mid ple: de By ea Hae er J.B. Hughes, who acted as superintendent for three years. He was succeeded by R. B. Snell, who served for five years. Today the school is under the leader- ship of H. A. White, who is serving his tenth year in this capacity. superintendent for ten years. For the next five years P. H. Smith was head of the school. Then came C. A. Hostettler and lat- JERE RGE IIHS All Senior and group pictures were taken by Day Studio, Elyria, Ohio.

PARK RESTAURANT The Right Appeal Sometimes school representatives forget their job is one of educational guidance and They talk of getting jobs instead of getting ready for jobs. They become just solicitors. brag what expert job-getters their placement departments are. This appeal is a false one, designed to catch the unwary—those not aware of the facts. Two factors determine whether the grad- uate of any school will get a job—ability and personality. Both are the product of the right kind of training—the kind of training you get at Wooster Business Col- lege, where teacher interest and attention is emphasized.
