Twelve ✓ ✓ To Strive, CLASS MOTTO To Seek, To Find, And Not To Yield. --TENNYSON Symbolic of modern youth, its goal and aspira- tions is RICHARD HALLIBURTON, gay young writer and lover of Romance whose travels have taken him to the far corners of the earth in search of the unusual. It was the above quotation from Tennyson that inspired him to travel into a world of fantasy and mythical beauty and led him to be idolized by countless youth throughout the nation. Members of the Senior Calss of 1936 choose this same quotation as a foundation for their own deals.

With their school years losing number, With the end arriving ere long, Juniors came, and with returning All agreed upon one goal, This will be their greatest year. So with hearts and heads high All went on their chosen courses, And their class was represented, In each high school organization Were the Juniors represented. Football used them, chorus, paper, Girl Reserves, Hi-Y and baseball, And in each thing, their class excelling. But the main thing ,their achievement, Was the Junior-Senior Prom. All the year they struggled, earning, Earned by selling new subscriptions, Earned by getting new subscribers For some well-known journals. Then they gave a dance stupendous, And the colors, pink and silver Were as tokens to the beauty Of this dance the Juniors gave. The promenade, it was gigantic, Bathed in moonlight o’er the Yacht Club On Lake Erie shores at Mentor.

With a new year now commencing, With their first year far behind them, With experience gained and paid for, With a sense of sophistication Came the poised and blase Sophomores, Came the symbols of vast wisdom.

In October Hi-Y started, The new members numbered ten, They remember piles of feathers, Feathers from a broken pillow— Feathers for initiation, Feathers in their hair and mouths. But the big thing was the Soph dance, Twas a Leap Year dance, this dance was, Twas a dance put on for maidens And how the braves were sought and rushed for! How those stalwarts loved this fanfare, Loved the being called and paid for. So the year passed, Passed in pleasure. And the Sophomores grow more knowing, Grow more poised and much less blase.

In the newness of their first year, In the wonder toward their elders, With a vast and hopeful outlook Came the Freshmen to our high school. With ideals and hopes and pledges Came the young and eager Freshmen. With the opening of the season, With their eagerness for action Many stalwarts entered football, Some to drop out, some to stay on. They look promising and helpful For the three years that are coming. As the autumn slowly wore on, And the G. R.’s became settled, In their midst they counted twenty Twenty earnest, seeking Freshmen, Freshmen who would strive and work. As the social season came on Freshmen plans were fast advancing For a great and special Valentine, For the val’ntine of their first year. Twas a grand success and lovely, Twas a dance with decorations casting rose-hue And reflecting in the hearts of those who saw it Another lovely, lasting rose-hue. So this year began,- now is ended, Ended for these young and eager Freshmen. Sixteen ACTIVITIES PUBLICATIONS .... CLUBS ___ MUSIC DRAMA . SPORTS . . .

With it comes the Cauldron, record of the past activities during the school year. The year nineteen-hundred and thirty-six brings a larger year book to the student body, more pictures, more features. That is the aim of every year book staff. But we cannot allow our notice to rest alone on volume. Size and material and quality are brought about only by many hard months of work and preparation by the annual staff. A splendid spirit and sense of cooperation also characterized this year s publication staff. Gilbert McLean, his work as photograph editor completed earlier in the year, showed extreme willingness to work when, aided by feature editor Jean Anderson who had also done her assigned task, the two solicited advertising with- out giving up till their goal of one-hundred dollars had been reached. Carolyn Bates using a Hiawatha theme wrote the class articles with a most colorful style. Expenses were greater, but the staff possessed a dogged determination to present a book this year that would be well- received by the students. Whether it has realized its aim is up to you to decide TTHE EDITOR Eighteen MIRROR STAFF Seated_Left to rlgrht: Eleanor� Woodworth, Virginia Maltbie. Bill Diehl. Robert Stimpert.

It wds just two years ago that the first school paper in seven years at Madison Memorial high school enjoyed a happy re-birth. Punchy and packed with typical high school dynamite (No reference is made here of Ralph Prouty who left the paper earlier in the year to actually take up the persual of concocting explosive substances), THE MIRROR has struggled through another year in fairly good shape, considering That printing prices went zooming skyward this year. Not one of the six issues this year were found to have been handled at a loss, however. That the staff of the MIRROR as a whole never was able to realize a journalistic background. Some schools offer the subject of Journalism in their classrooms. ck iiddod Several assembly programs were presented during the year under the leadership of MIRROR staff members. Later came the MIRROR Dance which was held in the Homer N. Kimball school gymnasium. A floor show and Mirror Room Restaurant featured the event. Already the Editor of next year's edition, Muriel Bates, is whipping a new staff into shape. It will be hard work for the new staff to set the pace as the one set by old MIRROR staffs and above all, the work of Editor Gordon Martin. Martin who graduates this year helped start the MIRROR and has been at its head ever since. The MIRROR is a project that merits more support than has been shown it. GORDO MARTIN.

The Girl Reserves took off with a flying start this year when they welcomed all the new girls into the club with a hike over to the palisades, but the real initiation came two or three weeks later when we gave a tea for the mothers and members of the Fortnightly Club. With a such a large membership we have been able to give quite a number of parties, which I shall try to describe briefly. The first one was on the ever-exciting Hallowe en when everyone turned the clock back a few years, and skipped up to Mrs. Stanton's. And of course we couldn’t enjoy our Christmas presents unless we gave another party for the tots of the neighborhood. Santa Claus was there, and distributed the gifts which the girls brought and the children went home happy and contented, with their toys and three helpings of ice cream safely tucked away. Our bond of friendship with Perry is strong and its most stable spot is our Y.W.C.A organization. In alternate years, we entertain, and it was our turn this year. We went generous on them, and secured a one-piece orchestra and served ice cream and wafers. Thgn Cdme what we expected to be the crowning event of our part of the school calendar. The G.R’s., in collaboration with the Hi-Y’s, were scheduled to give a dance. When I say the committees worked, I mean they worked, and hours of preparation wrought a vast change in the aspect of the gym. The gala nite rolled around, and the Commodores played dreamy waltzes and hot two-steps, and we took in $12.95. That was a blowto our pride but, as success isn’t always measured in dollars and cents, we counted the work as well worth our while. At least we know that everyone had a good time and besides it’s a lot easier to dance when the floor isn’t crowded. The next Wednesday nite came our annual Mother-Daughter banquet, in the ofrm of a picnic supper this time. This was our 20th anniversary and about one hundred Mothers and daughters responded to our call. We have two more events before we can call the year done,- a G.R.—Hi-Y party, the plans for which I refuse to disclose and the Senior Farewell party, about which I am in the dark myself, being a Senior. This summary wouldn't be quite complete if I didn’t mention the emblem which, one of our Hi-Y boys turned our for us. It has given the Girl Reserves a definite sight of their goal and something to hand down to the future G.R.’s as our gift. We hope they will follow the gleam. —Peggy Quirk, ’36 Twenty Hl-y CLUB 1st row—Left to right: Richard Leslie, Ray Whipple, Bill Diehl, Lynn Miller, Gilbert McLean (president), Donald Trask, Wilford Behm. 2nd row—Left to right: S.

The club under the leadership of its President, Gilbert McLean, had a beneficial year' Mr. Trescott was the sponsor,- other officers were: Bill Dfiehl, Vice President,- Lynn Miller. Treasuser,- and Ray Whipple, Secretary. Several night meetings of educational interest were held and once each month the fellows enjoyed a swim at the V Pool” in Painesville. Cooperating with the G.R.’s ,the boys sponsored a religious assemlby program on Good Friday,- the two clubs also gave a dance for the school which in spite of its Financial failure was deemed a success by those attending. In an effort to revive the spirit of fellowship between sons and fathers a banquet was held. This was felt to be an exceedingly worthwhile project and it is hoped that the clubs of the en- suing years will continue it.

John Hutchi- son. Robert Orcutt, Richard Leslie. E. Gordon Warner, Director By Robert Morlan Months of hard work combined with the experience of the past years and the extraordinary ability of the director, E. Gordon Warner, brought the M. M. H. S. Mixed Chorus to a peak never heretofore reached by any organization in this school. The first program of the year was to be presented in December at Kent State University, but due to the condition of the weather and icy roads the trip was reluctantly called off. However, on May fifth the chorus did go to Kent and presented a half hour assembly program. They were the first High School group of any kind to give a program there on such an occasion. The chorus sang twice during the year in the Central Congregational Church of Madison. The first was a short program presented for the Woman’s Association. On Easster night the chorus gave half a cantata in the church, the remaining half being given by church choirs. The first big program was the annual concert in the M. M. H. S. auditorium. Besides the selections by the chorus, several numbers were sung by the boys glee club. Special features on the program were a baritone solo by Wilford Behm, a piano solo by Rupert Atkins, and a soprano duet by Gladys Rose and Virginia Maltbie. The entire program was excellently presented and was received enthusiastically by a large audience. A few days after the concert the chorus went to Geneva to sing in the First Methodist Church. Somewhat earlier in the year they sang at a peace conference sponsored by the Lake County Federated Women's Clubs which was held in the First Methodist Church in Painesville. Last year the custom of the Perry Orchestra and Madison Chorus exchanging programs was started. Both concerts were presented this year to the great enjoyment of the two student bodies and we certainly hope that it will be continued. On April 17th came the event at which the chorus had been aiming all year,- the district contest at Ashland. The 250 miles to and from Ashland were made in two school busses. Each one carried his lunch and ate in the school busses so that they could go directly to the contest upon arriving. The chorus went on the stage at 12:30, the last of the Mixed Choruses to com- pete. After singing, small groups wandered about the town while awaiting he descision of the judges. Upon returning, they learned that they had taken 1st place with a No. 11 (excellent) Continued on Page 34 Twenty-two DRAMATIC CLUB L Seated—Left to right: Helen Pitschmann, Kathryn ‘ Heartwell, Evelyn Kless, Miss Gladys Merchant (advisor), Martha Wheeler.

The dramatic club is the newest orsanization in the school. It was started last year under the leadership of the former Miss Joynson who since has become married and left M. M. H. S. When last year's term ended, club activities continued on throushout the summer months, with the Library rooms as the appointed meeting place. These vacation get-togethers were held under the leadership of the newly elected club president, Helen Pitschmann. A new club advisor was chosen in the Fall. Miss Merchant kindly consented to take charge of the group. Finding other school activities too great, the president found it necessary to resign, remaining in the club, however. Robert Morlan as vice-president took over the office. The art of make-up was studied at the beginning of the year. Desiring to purchase a book on Dramatics, but with insufficient funds in the treasury to enable such a purchase to be made, the club went about the task of earning the required amount. A sandwich sale was sponsored by the group and several dollars made in this manner. Two guest speakers appeared before the club during the year, Mrs. E. Gordon Warner and Miss Shirley Houck. Mrs. Warner is president of the Madison Little Theatre Group. Miss Houck spoke about the importance of feeling emotion and at the conclusion of her talk presented a reading titled Christopher Columbo. An experimental program of constructive criticism was inaugurated at the beginning of the second half. A selected committee was to present a certain type program and club members in turn would be given the opportunity to criticize the production. A play, Dying for Doris was prepared and presented by the club in May. The play was written by a local woman, Mrs. Hutchison. The cast was made up of Evelyn Kless, John Hutchi- son, Robert Morlan, James Waterman, Doris Rhodes and Eugene Bates. It has not been all work for the club. Several parties have been held. The first was given by the advisor, Miss Merchant. On St. Patrick's Day, Evelyn Kless entertained the group. Another party was given by Kathryn Heartwell. Being a Senior, the writer wishes the club success in future years. —Helen Pitschmann Twenty-three SCHOLARSHIP CLUB The organization of the Scholarship Club began the year of 1925. During the following eleven years the number of members has been steadily increasing, when in 1935 it reached its highest peak of thirty-two members. An average of two A's and two B's must be had to obtain membership to this organization. In the prst years it has been customary to award bronze, silver and gold pins to first' second and third year members respectively. Last year, this was changed only to the extent of awarding letters to four year members. This year the plan was again altered, with letters being awarded to both first and fourth year members, silver pins to second year members and the gold pins to third year members. A plan has been worked out by which, in three yearrs, the various awards to club members will automatically change to letters for first, second and third year members, the gold awards going to the fourth year members. Richard Kimball was he first to become a four-year member of this club, followed by Eliza- beth Quirk and then by Elinor Johnson. By 1934 this number was exactly doubled; the four year members being Amelia Newby, Caroline Henninge and Betty Mitchell. This year, three more names were added to that list: Rupert Atkin, Jean Anderson and Margaret Quirk, making a total of nine members to attain four-year membership. Those receiveing awards this year are as follows Four-year members: Jean Anderson, Rupert Atkin, Margaret Quirk. Third-year members: He en Pitschmann, Charlotte Crum, Barbara Greene, Florence Koren, Eleanore Woodworth. Second-year members: Eugene Bates, Robert Morlan, Jean Dillon, Donald Trask, Betty Feenstra, Lois Jean Mitchell, Margaret Pethtel, Doris Rhodes, Mabel Roddy, Martha Wheeler. First-year members: Joseph Znidarsic, Edward Imm, Ronnie Hall, Grover Strickler, John Hutchison, Bertha Jane Adams, Sylvia Laurie, Florence Bates, Frances Grgat, Kathryn Heartwell Ruth Johnson, Evelyn Kless, Bertha Volante.

Although few in number, the group of eager huskies who answered Coach Frank Tarr's call to grid wars last September were great of heart. We need not advertise the fact that our Streaks did not win a game. Enough has been said of that unfortunate set of circumstances already. Not enough can be said of the team's spirit, however. Nor enough emphasis placed on the great effort that was made to stop the drives of opponents on all occasions. And we need not lose our sportsmanship because we lose a football game. Major lettermen who will leave M. M. H. S. via the graduation route this year are: Captain Jimmie Koren, Lynn Miller, Harvey Hejduk, Merle Billington, Rupert Atkin and Ray Whipple. If new laurels are to be gained, the outcome of the future will rest upon the shoulders of such remaining athletes as: Bob Greene, Dick Leslie, Dean Jones, Albert Gabor, Emil Gola and Bill Newby.

The Bl ues and Whites started out the season with four regulars from last year and other seasoned veterans Lynn Miller Kenny Whipple Harry Bingham and Dick Leslie. John Billington, who stepped up fast, was elected captain. The seconds had a nice looking bunch of hoop-tossers. These boys sort of showed up the first stringers at the first of the season but let down in the latter part. The Blues uncorked their bottle of the '35-'36 season by losing to Wickliffe 20-15 the first league game. Below you will find a resume of the basketball season. Following the week of the Wickliffe game, the Streaks came on the floor to trim Paines- ville 21-17. Mentor played host the next week, to take a victory by a score of 34-18. Next was the Alumni and they faded out in a 30-22 whitewashing. Madison went to Perry, our school rivalry, and went to work to a victory of 24-15. Bob Greene sank four double decker and a foul to annex honors in scoring. The Blues were in excellent shape for the arrival of Kirtland. They flashed too brilliant an offense for the boys from the sticks. Miller and Bingham, (Bingham, who had just started his season in a flash of hoop sinking) were in great form to tally, 18 and 16 points, which prac- tically defeated Kirtland, although the score was 47-22. Wickliffe was just as tough this time as the first and took Madison 33-19. These Mentorites are one tough hombre and the Blues had to bow to a 40-23 defeat. The Streaks hopped over to Geneva the next day to give Geneva a good fight. The final period ended with the score 24-24. Three minutes overtime were played and the Streaks let the Genevans slip in two baskets to win the game. Perry came to Madison in one big body and Madison wentto town to the tune of 31-24. Our own Tex Bingham flashed in five double deckers and a foul to cop all scoring honors. This fellow Bingham sure knows and plays his basketball. Madison traveled south to Kirtland to give them another practice game. Our Milt Preottle, who has been sitting down most of the time, finally had his chance and proved that he was a great shot. He tossed in two field goals and four out of five foul shots, to obtain scoring honors with eigh points. Miller and Bingham followed close with seven points apiece. Continued on Page 34 Twenty-eight FEATURES . Twenty-nine HOME ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT In M. M. H. S. the home of the school is in the Home Ec. rooms. The school kitchen throughout the year is the center where social activities are planned and carried out as class projects. The food classes were opened to boys this year and it is hoped that in the near future one class will be a special men s group. The clothing and Household Management classes have re- modeled the auditorium curtains, patched the stage hangings, con- structed layettes for welfare babies, mended basketball and foot- ball equipment and redecorated both the teachers' and girls' restrooms. At all times whether pupils are enrolled in any classes of the department or not, they are encouraged to make use of the rooms and instruction. Many high school girls not registered in regular classes have learned to construct knitted garments. Patterns of the department are available to any girl in school as is the equipment. In all Home Ec. classes personal care and grooming are stressed. Demonstrations on courtesy soon spread to lectures by the instructor before Girl Reserve and Hi-Y groups. The climax of this came in the form of a courtesy program sponsored by the Junior-Senior classes. The idea of the program was to stress consideration for others in the hope that courtesy will become a permanent habit of the high school stndent. In a community where young men secure summer work on the lake boats as waiters, and where many local gatherings are held, there is a distinct need for food training. In a period when food must be more than ever economically prepared, and where garments must be mended and remodeled, the answer to the situation lies in the practical application made possible by Home Econimics training. Finally in an age where standards are changing and there is more leisure time, there is a vital need for proper identification of the values of life and a knowledge of handicraft to make a constructive life. MISS KIDKLIA FARM M Thirty IN THE SHOP SHOP During each school day there are five classes taught in the school shop. Two of these classes are for first year boys, who work with the hard tools making projects for themselves in which they are interested. The two other classes are for boys who have had the first year's work in using band tools, and they spend the year making projects by machine. The above picture shows second-year students working on scale models of a frame house. These models are built in the same manner as a full-sized house and show good and bad methods of construction in a medium-priced house. If shop students are interested, they may take a third year of shop, which is Pattern Making and Foundry. These students make throughout the year patterns of machine parts and then cast their completed patterns in aluminum. These third year students are enrolled in any of four classes mentioned above. A course in Mechanical Drawing is given in which students learn how to make and read working drawings of machine parts and plans of houses. A large percent of our population earn their living from manufacturing or mechanical work. Students, in taking shop work, will find out for themselves if they are interested in, or fitted for, manufacturing or mechanical lines of work.

At a recent meeting of the board of directors of the State Home for Or- phans of Coal Miners, a protest was lodged against Miss Jane McLean, matron of the home, concerning the high cost of heating the home. According to reports, four loads of coal had been delivered to the orphanage during the week of May 1st. Miss McLean stated in defense of her move that her interest in the children made her overzealous in keeping them comfortable. Another director pointed out that contrary to the board's ruling on equal distribu- tion, Miss McLean had re- peatedly ordered all of the coal from one particular concern.

Thirty-three BASKET BALL Continued from Page 28 This ended the season for these fellows, except the great Faculty game held at the High School gym. The Blues were as good as the Celts in this game and tallied 38 points to the Faculty's 4. All in all the Blues and Whites won about one-half of their league games to place them in third place. Lettermen were: John Billington, Ken Whipple, Lynn Miller, Tex Bingham, Happy Hejduk, (a second string man at first, but we found another find on the A's. He receives a great deal of credit also to help his team) Dick Leslie, Bob Greene, Ed Heinrich, Milt Preottle, and Ray Whipple. The first five fellows have turned in their basketball togs for good. A great deal of credit should be given to Coach Tarr of the A's and Coach Risley of the B's. Mr. Risley had begun this season for his coaching basketball and putting out some nice fellows for next season. —James Koren '36 MIXED CHORUS Continued from Pa e 22 rating which entitled them to compete in the state final at Columbus the following Thursday. Many plans for providing transportation to Columbus were discussed and on Tuesday the school board announced that they would finance all transportation and pay for one meal. The chorus was overjoyed and could hardly wait for the day of days to come. The chorus, accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Warner, Supt. S. B. Trescott, a member of the School Board, and two interested citizens, left Madison at 6:00 o'clock on the morning of April 23 in a chartered coach on the New York Central lines. Press reporter Bill Diehl took moving pictures of the chorus en route. The train reached Columbus at 12:30 and after lunch they went immediately to Ohio State University where the contest was being held. Keyed to a high pitch of excitement they went before the audience and also the microphone of radio station WOSU. About a half hour later came the descision of the judges; the only chorus with a No. 1 (Superior) rating! The entire chorus rushed for the doors to give vent to their exuberance of their spirits and shortly afterwards started downtown where they separated into small groups to go on sightseeing tours, assembling a little later to have dinner in the fashionable Deshler- Wallick Hotel. After eating, those who wished, danced to the music of the famous Monaco band. Some of the members telegraphed news of the victory home while others sent postcards to friends and relatives. Every pastime from penny-matching to chess was used to beguile the time on the train and everyone yelled and sang and created a joyful hubhub. Few if any more thrilling days will ever be experienced. The train pulled into Madison at 12:45 A. M.; and many townspeople were gathered at the depot to welcome the victors. To conclude a most successful and enjoyable season, the chorus broadcast a half hour program over WTAM in Cleveland on Saturday, May 9th. The season has not been all fun. It took weeks upon weeks of persistent gruelling practice preparation before any singing was attempted in public, but the results justified the work and more. The chorus and its director, Mr. Warner, justly earned the honors which they received. The chorus has brought fame to Madison and our school.
