THE HISTORY OF THE CLASS OF l939V2 Perhaps more than any class since 'l8, the class of l939V2 has attended Male High during a period filled with more high- lights and outstanding events in the world. Harken back to the closing days of l936 and the beginning of l937 when we first entered Male. Franklin D. Roosevelt had been re-elected for a second term by the greatest majority in history, and people said that the Republican party was dead. Dewey, McNutt, and Taft were little heard of names. England had just acquired a new king. Automobiles still had their gearshifts on the floor, and everybody was singing a crazy ditty entitled The Music Goes 'Round and 'Roundf' Albania, Poland, Czechoslovakia, Austria, and Danzig were all flourishing countries, and Margaret Mitchell's new book, Cone With the Wind was appearing on best seller lists. We looked forward to entering Male High, but even as we received our diplomas from lunior High, Old Man Ohio dumped himself in our front yards. High School survived 57.l feet. We started to school five weeks late. School ran until four o'clock, and there were no electric lights. Floors were buckled and most of the first floor could not be used. As threes we became acclimated to Male High. It was a bit strange not having any girls in the class. That was the term when the Hindenburg exploded, and War Admiral won the Derby. l937 was the big football year. The Bulldogs won twelve straight games, gloriously defeating Manual, 25-20, for the only Male High victory during our three years. Coach Butts left us to go to Georgia, where he is now head coach. In the spring we proudly became juniors. Colonel jordan left as Professor of Military Science and Tactics, and after a brief time, Major Bashore took his place.. Lawrin won the Derby. - .. ..,. t, ...,.,..-, .
