TANNEHILL : There is another Book which says Let there be light. That is also the unwritten motto of our school — meaning, of course, the light of knowl¬ edge. And thus this year, we are endeavoring to present to you the different phases of school life in the categories of light in which they seem to belong. iSVV:. ..

SMITH Superintendent of Schools L. P. KEMP Principal of Washington High Beacon Lights i High up in the sky on a dark night one may see a dim and eerie light across the boundless expanse. Boldly sweeping across the horizon, it clears a path of light for the oncoming plane. These lights (known as beacons) prevent many fatal accidents. The mail plane pilot can depend on these beacons to lead him to his destination, and just as assuredly do we know that our high school faculty will lead us to our final goal. Fulfilling the purpose of education, our teachers have led us out of the darkness into the Light of Understanding. They have held the light high, never lowering it, but, nevertheless, helping us over the darker spots. If we should waver from our course, we have faith that we shall eventually find the way with their help. All along the sky of Life there are beacons to guide us. The faculty is a very important beacon. Their light extends over a significant period of our lives. It is the fault of the pilot who loses sight of his light that he is dashed to earth,—not the light. May we keep the light before us and continue to be guided by this influence when life leads us away from our high school, and may we, like the pilot, never forgetting the source of his light, remember the trustworthy beacons of Massillon High School.

Why, it seems but yesterday when we were buying chapel seats, looking for the elevator, and paying hard-earned cash for locker permits. Even towards the end of the year, we were timid in addressing upper class- men,—and our knees shook if we didn ' t enter class before 8:30. Then in our junior year—we spoke to the upper classmen without the least bit of quaking. We began to speak about Macbeth and Comus before amazed, admiring and bewildered sophs. Now and then,—if the test in English wasn ' t so bad,—we ' d favor those same sophs with a glance or nod as we passed in the halls. And now—it ' s our senior year. We did a little speculating ourselves in chapel seats. We call Hise Ike now. The sophs go without our official rec¬ ognition. Why, they ' re just there to fill the auditorium on rally days. And as for classes—if we get there within five minutes after the bell rings, we consider ourselves good. We occupy the back of the auditorium before school, and heaven help the lower classmen who disturb cur tete-a-tetes! It won ' t be long before we ' ll be going away, some to college, some else¬ where, and some will stay here to attend class reunions. On Commencement night, with our parents standing, watching, wondering how we grew up so fast, we ' ll switch the tassels on our caps, gather up our gowns, and the Class of ' 36 will be just a memory! —F.

A man ' s limitations are the points where his excellence stops.” Moving, for the most part quietly, in our midst are these outstanding members of our intellectual community. Their limitations in four directions leave a comfortable margin of usefulness from a social viewpoint. Thirty years hence these may not all occupy key positions in society. One often hears of high-school mediocrity growing into adult superiority. But one is led to believe that a high degree of correlation exists between society ' s key people and their inherent capacities. Something more than mere brains, or the ability to parrot the hypotheses of Euclid, or the verbs of the great Imperator is required. A most significant measure of an indi¬ vidual is his ability to square his viewpoints with those of his fellow men with whom he has to work. Poe, you remember, died in the miserable realization that the world just would not orient itself to him. And sound character still has a place—even in this age of broken treaties. Finally, the proof of the pudding comes in the quality of service actually rendered. One views with some surprise the large periodic honor roll compared with the very electness of the National Honor Society. Consistency in their excellence is the unseen factor which spells the difference. Here is the real reason why the top cries constantly for men. 39 mm Senior Poem - There was a time by the deep, full sea Where the drooping trees did sway, And there was a tiny cottage built With homely air and free. Within the rakish little house There lived a fine old man. All by himself he lived, alone. He lived his youth again. He dreamed as old and young will do But with the old ' s exception; He had already lived his life And knew life ' s clear deception. His silvered locks safe hid away Unnumbered thoughts, untold. He kept there all his dreams of youth, Of Love, of Fame, of Gold. He ' d won his love long years ago; He ' d won her, yes, and lost her. And oh, to you or me she ' d gone But he had never lost her. To him she lived as much today As when she was his wife; Although she could not stay with him, She helped him live his life. She shared his trouble and his joy Just as in life she had. So wistful was this grand old man, His story that,—not sad. Mere Fame! It is a hollow word And yet it can be glorious. The soldier goes away to war, As leader returns victorious. Our old man had no need for Fame; He was as great without it; The strangers, helpless, all who met him Never did they doubt it. His Love acknowledged to herself That he need not gain Fame; The great is in the man himself An d not in a vain name. He had such gold as filled his needs And why should he want more? Unhappy miser, you ' re a fool For misery is your store. - Soul’s Secret He gave to all who needed giving. No prejudice could sway him. Yet he grew rich while growing poor; No earthly power could stay him. And none could steal this new-gained gold, It was no worldly treasure; And when he ' d dropped back in Life ' s race, His wealth no one could measure. He gave of his undying mine, No one was under ban. He helped his fellow-man through God And reached his God through Man. His gold was Love, his Love was gold And with it he bought-—Love. Love paved for him a path, as smooth, As straight,—to heaven above. Who is this man, too good to be? And does he really live? Is he an image of the brain Such as a dream might give? I saw him once, I often do; I glimpse him in the distance; I ' ll follow him some day, perhaps; But it takes such persistence! He ' s in some recess of my mind, But he is really true. If you will open up your eyes— You ' ll find him,—HE ' S IN YOU! He is an ideal in all men, If they could only know it. I ' m very proud because I know And take this way to show it. Who knows the workings of my mind There were that might instill it; I know that my ideal is there; God helping, I ' ll fulfill it. This year is our year, ' 36, And this year we shall part. I can ' t describe,—perhaps you feel— That same odd fear at heart. Whatever comes to me in life, Whenever Life must cease, I hope it ends with that Ideal Of Golden Love—and Peace. —Jack Girt. 40 Lesser Lights McKELVEY, D. RESS, HILL, FISCHER Well, we ' re grown up now that we ' re juniors; in fact, we ' re going to retire after next year. But next year we will be the so-called “400 of Washington High. The Sophs will regard us with great awe and respect (they ' d better) and we may speak to them if necessity demands it. This year we were, as it were, vice presidents of a great institution. But we ' re in line for promotion in June. We had our duties and obligations, just as important as those of the presi¬ dents, the seniors. Our class average was exceptionally high for both semesters, and the members of our class were all members of some club or other school organization. There were junior members in the Student Council who did their duties well and helped to present rallies and other social activities of the school, and there were those in the Struts and Frets who presented some of the most outstanding plays in Massillon during the year. No one will forget that great football team of ' 36! The team went through the entire season without meeting their Waterloo once! There were junior members on that ball club, perhaps not all on the first team, but on the second, doing their bit and best. Sophs, listen in. We vow here and now, to try next year to give you a real goal to strive for—Watch our Stuff! Wh en we, the class of ' 38, entered Washington High School in the fall of ' 35, most of us had a look of greenness upon our faces as we wandered through that seemingly endless maze of halls and a general air of “What ' s it all about? around us. And how the old-timers fleeced the lambs! Our class was destined to do big things for the school. At the very beginning we took part in athletics. Several members of our class were regulars on the football team and helped win that much coveted title “State Champs. The sophomores weren ' t lacking on the basketball team either. We are well represented in both the first and second choirs, the band and the orchestra. Some of the most important charac¬ ters in the Dramatic Club plays were sophomores. We also control eight votes in the Student Council and three on the Annual Board. The last week in April proved to be a very exciting week for us. That week we held the annual sophomore party and was it a party! In the next two years we hope to build ourselves up so that when ' 38 rolls around, we may prove to be one of the outstand¬ ing classes in the history of the school.

Jack Frost has come in the night with his magic paint brush transforming these ordinary windows into jeweled fairy tales. Here is a stately old castle. Who knows how many beautiful maidens have been imprisoned in this castle by ogres? How many brave knights with flaring trumpets and flying banners have ridden to this drawbridge to claim the maidens for their own? Here is an enchanted forest where the fairies on moonlight nights hold revels for their friends, the elves. Here are magic fairy dances such as those which Titania and Oberon might not scorn to grace with their presence. Or, perhaps this is Sherwood Forest and we may soon see Robin Hood, Little John, Friar Tuck, and the Maid Marian. This is the tower from which Richard the Lion Hearted was rescued by a beautiful song. Look! Here in this comer is the little dog of Prince Cherry, the prince in the old French tale. Surely this must be the coach in which Cinderella rode to the ball and there met her Prince Charming. Ordinary windows, indeed! —Phyllis Watkins. 56 SOPHOMORE STORY The Gift of Mars War—the grim destroyer—the wrecker of men ' s souls—the devastator of fair lands. Men create it and men put an end to it, only after their primeval lust for conflict has been appeased, and their war lords satiated. Peter Lott tossed restlessly on his sordid, little, make-shift cot. Distorted figments of yesterday ' s occurrences kept continually revolving in his tortured brain. War had made of him a machine, whose only purpose was to kill and kill and kill! A terrific blast, whose source, evidently, was an enemy bomb, shook the dugout and caused him to moan feebly, raise himself on one shoulder, and give vent to a harsh epithet, presumably meant for those higher-ups who unrelentingly drove their men on to destruction and chaos. Rising to a sitting position, he pressed his forehead with an uncouth hand, endeavoring to ease some of the throbbing pain surging through it. Placing his heavy boots on his numb feet, he stumbled out of this breeding place of rats and like vermin, and reported to his commanding officer. Ha, just in time, Lott, just in time. I have a special mission for you. It is, of course, voluntary, but I thought that— I ' m ready, sir. Good. I might have known that a man like you have shown yourself to be would not flinch. Now, this is the plan. You are to attempt to capture that infernal machine-gun nest that has been pestering us of late. As you know, it is located about a hundred yards to our right. Make your preparations and prepare to start at six o ' clock sharp. Yes, sir. He saluted, turned on his heel, and stamped out. He inched forward on his stomach, with his steel helmet pulled down over his forehead. He was in No-Man ' s land. All about him a terrific barrage was centered; evidently the enemy intended some flank movement soon. Slimy ooze penetrated his uniform and caused him to recoil in revulsion. A sudden rip appeared in his left shoulder: blood spurted. He gasped in agony and rolled down the incline of a huge shell crater. Tearing a strip from his shirt, he quickly bound the wound, which although treated awkwardly, was now somewhat alleviated by the bandage. 57 Half climbing and half pulling himself, he made his way up the wall of the crater and peered over the rim. Scarcely twenty yards ahead lay the enemy ' s first entrenchments, a machine-gun nest, his goal. Suddenly he pulled himself erect, leaped out of the hole, and raced across the intervening distance. He leaped forward and landed midst his foes. His two drawn revolvers took control of the situation. The three gunners stood with mouths gaping wide, astounded at his display of reckless bravery. He ordered them to raise their hands. They complied all too willingly. Taking a coil of hemp from his coat pocket, he soon had the prisoners bound, binding one while he warily eyed the others, his revolver clutched tightly in his left hand. A close watcher looking then would have seen a momentary widening of the captives ' eyes. But Peter Lott, elated over his success, did not. A few yards behind him there rose a dark form that crept forward quietly, ever so quietly. Not a sound did he make: he rivaled the domestic feline in stealth. Then he raised his bayonet and threw his weight against it. Then did Peter Lott fall forward to the ground, a bloody bayonet piercing his vitals. Then did he give an agonizing scream, a scream that rent the heavens asunder with its terrible woe. A series of scenes flashed through his mind like hot sharp pains. Ah, never again would he glimpse that green ivy covering his cottage back home, never would he kiss his wriggling little son, never- Scarlet fluid issued from his mouth and he gave a last gasp, started forward, and—died! Such is the fortune of War! —Robert Peters. 58 ss «■■ 7 - •« -. - SjV ; V J Student Council - - - Light Directors BOTTOM ROW—Geraldine Hart, Robert Thayer, Eleanor McClain (Vice President), June Immel (President), Virginia Henderson (Secretary), Louis Feinman (Treasurer), Virginia Lee.

In place of a Student Court or a Student Senate, Washington High School has a Student Council. This body is next to the faculty in the governing of the student body. The Student Council is a highly select group, as shown by the fact that its members must first be nominated by the teachers from among the best students in their classes, and then elected to the Council by the student body. Each class elects its quota of mem¬ bers, and two of the faculty are also members of the Council. The duties of the Student Council are many in number and difficult of execution. The first activity of the Council is the conducting of a book store where students may sell and buy second-hand books. Then, also, at the beginning of the year, the Council oper¬ ates a refreshment stand at the football games. Next, for a few more months, it enjoys a monopoly on the sale of ice cream, candy, and chewing gum at the basketball games. During this period and until the end of the year, rallies must be held, pep talks given, new teachers initiated, chapel programs supervised, and special holiday programs at Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Easter arranged. One of the bright spots in the year is the Patrons Reception, planned, arranged, and carried out by the Council. As a fitting climax to a year ' s hard work comes the most solemn event of them all, Senior Chapel, another Council project. : J 59 . | _ _v _«.

The mass of students never know that they pay only half the cost. We trudge, then rest. Days of rest—seemingly without end.

How dare the theme be gainsaid! But even light can be harnessed, and is. The final touches at last. Then to the printer and the binder. Bills are paid; final meetings held. The book goes on sale. Seven hundred students find their likenesses, exchange autographs, hastily leaf through the pages, and speculate on what next year ' s annual will be like. People are like that. Thirty years hence the light will shine again. This is the real reason why we go through all this—perennially. Invisible lights on the Board have been Lyman Tucker, Caryll Atkinson, and Jimmie McDew. Tucker was of valuable assistance in club write-ups, and Atkinson and McDew in cartoons. 60 Dramatic Club F ootlights The Struts and Frets has its day. It has been advertised by paper, posters and skits for weeks that another enjoyable presentation is to be given by a cast which will Strut and Fret its hour upon the stage, and then be heard no more. Let ' s take a look back stage the day of the production. Where ' s the good hammer? Will someone hold this wobbly step-ladder? Watch you don ' t swallow those thumb-tacks! Look out beeee-looow! Here comes a drop. Get those doppy sophomores out of the way. Where ' s the keys? Get those drapes hung. Tea without sugar? Where ' s George Washington? All properties to the front. Come on, useless, help carry the ticket board around front. Listen, babe, I ' ve been hunting up properties since three o ' clock. Here it ' s five-thirty and I haven ' t even smelled food. Your tickets or your money. Where are my pants? Who ' s got that shoe? Get me a safety pin. Later in the make-up room one hears— Trim my beard a little more, will you? I feel like a greased pig. Got a lemon? Watch my hair! Turn around here, Baby face! Give me my cues, will you? I need another switch to look right. Don ' t be so rough. Oh, my complexion! I need a highbrow, don ' t put any lowbrow on me! Where ' s the Listerine? Five minutes and you ' re on! Then there is a scurry and in a few minutes the curtain rises as the lights dim. Presented this year by the Struts and Frets were: Nothing But the Truth, Wieners on Wednesday, Boston Blues or Blue Moon, The Alabaster Box, Growing Pains.

The band, one of the most outstanding organizations of Washington High School, is known chiefly for its spectacular appearance in different marching maneuvers on the foot¬ ball field. The time and work necessary to produce such precision of movement and playing are but little appreciated. From the beginning of school until late November the band must drill several hours a week in all kinds of weather, learning to coordinate mind and matter, music and marching, to a degree that will make it superior and worthy of acclaim from all who see it. For the next few months the band must devote its time to practicing marches, popular hit tunes, and novelty numbers to amuse the crowd between the parts of the basketball games. Then the interesting and major work of the year begins. After six to eight weeks of sweating over the works of Beethoven, Mozart, Wagner, and dozens of other composers, a concert is given, appreciated by a handfull of music lovers. From the time of the concert until the end of the year the library is read through to acquaint the players with standard compositions, both old and new, and to develop musicianship in each individual to the fullest extent possible under such limited condi¬ tions. Then another concert is given and the summer routine of festivals, concerts, and parades is begun. The high standard of ability necessary to become a member of this band and the hard work of its director and members have made the band an outstanding club of the school and one of the best musical organizations in this part of the state. 64 ;■ Choir - - - Soft Lights and Low BOTTOM ROW—Hilda Young (Vice President), June Frances, Mary Shaub, Dorothy Van Norte, Isabel Fischer, Bette Flood, Mary Merwin, Delores Brinker, Donald Silvis, James Smith, Earl J Textor, Winnifred McCollum, Betty Snyder, Evelyn Ponn, Miriam DeHoff, Bette Morgan, Jean Burkhart, Eris Richardson, Virginia Henderson (Business Manager).

Say there—sound your A—no—that won ' t do-—you ' re flat! —just one of the many trials that each choir member goes through in the cours e of a year ' s training in the a capella choir. What with sitting up so straight that one is in constant fear of falling over back¬ wards, and having to give up one ' s favorite pastime-chewing gum—for one hour and a half each school day, the choir members fully appreciate the great artists who really know what intensive training is. However, all these things tend to improve one ' s intonation, posture and breath control. This year the choir gained state-wide recognition as being a leader in the field of unaccompanied choral organizations. Besides several local appearances, the choir gave concerts in Delaware, Wooster, Canton, and Cleveland. This training gives the necessary background and experience to those who intend to make music their profession, and it gives to those who enjoy singing an appreciation and knowledge of the finest music, which will be of value to them throughout their lives. So, despite the gymnastics, the throwing away of an especially juicy piece of gum, and the well-known phrase, you ' re flat,” we all come to the conclusion that it ' s worth it after all. i 65 Orchestra - - - Pit Lights BOTTOM ROW—Betty Fern Eschliman, Phyllis Swihart, Jean Conroy, Anne Shilling, Ila Warstler, Donald Shook, Dwight Gerstenmaier (President), Gordon Fothergill, Raymond Breed, June Evans, Esther Stauffer, Emily Epps, Mary Helen Christmann. SECOND ROW—C. J. Morrison (Director), LaVerne Heather, Harold Herman, David DeWalt, Steve Hiou, Glenn Reese, Orin Brenner, Clara Kurtzman, Curtis DeWalt, Harold Indorf, Donald Shuey, Donald Hunsberger. J t The orchestra is one of the most interesting and beneficial clubs in the school and its work is as varied as it is interesting. A high standard of ability is necessary to qualify for its membership and most students can qualify only after several years of study under its able director and teacher, Mr. Morrison. The first few weeks of school are spent in practicing exercises, scales, and passages to give the members the rudimentary knowledge necessary to proper execution of the difficult compositions they later will play. Several months more of intensive training are then undergone to develop tone, skill, and precision of movement, and to give the players the experience of playing together so that they can properly interpret their music. Only after all of these things have been properly mastered, can the works of Ameri¬ can and foreign composers of yesterday and today be studied. Months more of rehears¬ ing are necessary to increase the repertoire to a size that will make it possible to present a series of varied and interesting programs. During the school year the orchestra gives several concerts and chapel programs and provides the musical settings to the Dramatic Club productions. 66 BOTTOM ROW—Mary Brown, Geraldine Sheffler, Phyllis Stone, Madelyn Berger, Phyllis Watkins I (President), Eleanor James, Helen Rachel, Rosalind Stewart, Martha Hall.

Unaccustomed as I am to public speaking . . . — that will not be the manner in which ex-members of the Athenaeum Club will begin any carefully-prepared or extem¬ poraneous speeches they may be called upon to make in their later life. The Athenaeum Club is not confined by the narrow bounds of formal debate or the stage—it familiarizes itself with public speaking in all its varied guises, touching upon everything save cheer- leading, which is, after all, public shrieking rather than public speaking. Members are called upon to give impromptu talks upon the most surprising subjects; they contribute occasionally to chapel programs; they even turn Thespian and tread the boards in acting roles. They indulge spasmodically in fiery oratory, thereby learning that it is not what they say but the manner in which they say it that is so important; they battle their way through breathless debates with the fate of the nation hanging in the balance; they have inveigled several public speakers to visit them; and on one occasion they held a remark¬ able mock banquet. All year the club tries to direct its powers in such a manner as to take all its inarticulate raw members, polish them, make them immune to that mysteri¬ ous malady composed of equal parts of amnesia, weakness of the knees, dizziness, statn- mering, drying of the palate, and loss of voice, which is commonly known as stage fright —and turn them out in the form of finished products capable of being the bright light of any party, either birthday or political. 67 Botany Club - - - A Different Light BOTTOM ROW—Mary Rider, Evelyn Ponn, Martha Badertscher, Beatrice Rosker, Evelyn Vogt, Cary Kramor, Bette Adams, Bertha Eschleman, Robert Zupp. TOP ROW—Eleanor Shaub, Robert Altland, Walter Smith, Herbert Sisley, Joe McGuire, Howard E. Simpson, Jim McGuire, Jimmy Nemeth, Ralph Frank. This group concerns itself chiefly with the conservation of the world ' s botanological (nice word) resources. Lumber is the main source of forensic anxiety. Members convince each other in all manner of reports and arguments that the valuable plant life must be saved, or else the delicate balance of life on the earth will be thrown off center with disastrous results . . . they cannot forget that every four years enough newsprint is made for a newspaper long enough to stretch to the sun and back. While the average person would only think of what a glorious comic strip or cigarette advertisement that would make, the Botany Club members see the whole matter in a vastly different light. They realize what a great number of forest giants must come down to enable us all to witness Mrs. Jiggs ' unerring aim with the chinaware or to inform us that we should be overjoyed at the prospect of walking a mile to get a lift, and so they have banded together to try to decide what should be done about the matter. Then too, there are other forms of plant life which are making their exits just as surely, although with less verbal fanfare. The chestnut tree, for instance, and numerous wild flowers and plants that cannot share their existence with man, and the diseases and pests he brings (only spinach seems to be unaffected). Botany Club members look to wiser heads than theirs for guidance in solving the problem of the departing plant life, they mentally digest the writings and utterances of the masters as divine oracles, and frequently give original thought on the subject unaided. It is extremely bad taste to speak lightly of conservation to these individuals. 68 Camera Club - - - Light and Shadow BOTTOM ROW—Cletus Gresser, Willard Fox (Instructor), Jane Moss (Instructor), Dale Hart, Bob Bordner, Jean Carey, Fannie Rosker, Jane Ripple (Secretary). SECOND ROW—Bob Kneffler, Doris Morland, Eleanor Ziegler, Helen Marie Schmidt, Mary Lou DeWalt. TOP ROW—Edward Smith, Moreton Meinhart (President), Earl Ivory, Ralph Vogt, James Beatty, Edward Burhenn, David DeWalt, Cleland Mitch (Vice President), Miss Digel (Faculty Advisor). Here is a club that operates with machine-like precision and smoothness. Populated by mechanical artists who work with cameras, sensitized paper, lights and shadows, chemicals—who babble in a seemingly incoherent private language of time-exposures, neg¬ atives, filtration of light, action of silver bromide, and endless double-jointed names for chemicals. They are the guardians of the mystic dark-room on the second floor (knock twice and someone will peep out to see if you are a janitor). The Camera Club is not to be taken lightly; it has stringent regulations and requirements which to the beginners often, seem unsurmountable: 1. Before he receives a club credit he must be able to take a variety of snapshots; 2. He must be able to develop them into negatives (you hold ' em to the light to see ' em); and 3. He must be able to print the negatives on sensitized paper. Those are the minimum; it is a poor member who does not far exceed them. Lens artistry becomes a fascinating hobby to many of the members: they click their cameras at every¬ thing they can think of, go through mysterious passes with evil-smelling liquids and emerge from their home-made dark-rooms with a look of exultation or blank despair (it was b ecause the film was left in the first bath too long, perhaps). But no matter whether they succeed or fail, they are soon snapping away again. Since experience is the prime requisite of good photography, just as it is in the making of good biscuits, the club has evolved a system of perpetual motion which retains some of the former members each year to instruct the novices in the endless details, ad¬ vance the club to greater heights of photographic skill (this year they ' ve taken up colored pictures), and even buy the chemicals and paper, somehow managing to stay within the narrow, materialistic confines of the budget. ) 69 Chemistry Club - - - - Bunsen Lights BOTTOM ROW—Jim Weiskopf, Bob Anslow, Wally Williams, Wilbert Moss, William Jessup, Albert Lash, Dick Miller, Richard Spiker, William Drage, Ted Hofmann, Clyde Fish.

Hess, Arthur Myers, Frank Goodnough, Howard Klitt, Melville Wagner. The Chemistry Club is of great value to those interested in that subject. Its- various activities help the students in their class work, and help lay a foundation for other subjects and careers. The Chemistry Club visits many of the local industrial and chemical works each year. Among many they have visited are the Buckeye Oxygen and the Water Works Plants. In their meetings, the club members discuss the current topics of chemical import in much more detail than is possible in class. Also, they conduct chemical demonstrations such as making fire extinguishers, making fountains by means of soluble gases, and other such magical demonstrations involving simple chemical laws and formulas. An interesting diversion for club members this year was a baseball game. For base¬ balls, chemistry words were used; if these words were correctly defined by the batter, it counted as a base. As there were quite a large number of words, the batters had a hard time getting a run in; for, if a batter missed a word, it was counted as a strike-out for the other side. The final score of that game was one to nothing. One of the oldest, most interesting, and educational of the clubs, the Chemistry Club well repays those ambitious students who devote their spare time to it. 70 Clinic Club .... X-Rays BOTTOM ROW—Marjorie Baker, Jane Dingier, Marie Culler, Nellie Sandusky. SECOND ROW—Helen Negulic, Betty Criss, Dorothy Moorhead. TOP ROW—Maxine Weiford, Alice Meyers, Virginia Weber, Jane Ripple, Dorothy Van Norte, Mr. Kemp (faculty advisor). A group that performs a real service to the students, the Clinic Club, is, at the same time, one of the most novel organizations in the school. It is unlike any other of the clubs in that it has no meetings, no officers, and little organization. The members, contented to modestly go about their routine duties, receive but little recognition for the studied and valuable services they perform. Membership in the club is limited to a small number of girls who have excelled in their work in the First Aid Club the preceding year. Being placed in a very responsible position, each girl must have had thorough training and instruction in first aid to qualify her for any emergency which may arise. Many and varied are the ailments which send both teachers and students to the Clinic for treatment. On glancing through the recent records of cases treated, one cannot help but notice several interesting coincidences. One is moved to wonder why so many heroes of the gridiron regularly suffer toothaches, earaches, and backaches the fourth period just before dinner. And then too it is somewhat amusing to speculate on the case of a member of the faculty who for four days straight was treated for indigestion after eating his wife ' s apple pie for lunch. But most cases are not to be made so light of. When it comes to head¬ aches, earac hes, toothaches, stomach aches, sore throats, colds, pains, floor bums, cut fin¬ gers, broken noses, sprained knees, and appendicitis, we are glad we have the efficient body that we do in the Clinic Club.

The Commercial Club offers means by which students who are interested in business careers may further extend their training in commercial work. Typing, shorthand, commercial mathematics, business systems, neatness and efficiency are all considered throughout the year. Speed tests in both shorthand and typing are frequently given for the purpose of acquiring speed, a most valuable asset in commercial work. Actual contacts are estab¬ lished with professional men and women actively engaged in business. The club, in the course of the year, gives plays dealing with business ethics. These aid a great deal in demonstrating the correct and the incorrec t business conduct, thus teaching the students what to do and what not to do in their stenographic careers. The operation of various mechanical devices such as the adding, ditto, and mimeo¬ graph machines are taught to the members of the club, and it is most fortunate that they are able to have such an opportunity to learn the manipulation of these important aids to business. Many one-time members are now actively engaged in stenographic and other profes¬ sional careers. 72 Debate .... Crossed Beams BOTTOM ROW (seated)—James Lane (President), Mary Alice Walter (Corresponding Secretary), Eileen Budd (Recording Secretary), Shirley Stiffler. (Standing)—Durwood Brown. TOP ROW—Elsie Huebner, Pauline Krell, Arleene Herbel, Ivan C. Mann (faculty advisor), Robert Nevel, Wilkins Weber (Vice President), Margaret Calhoun, Donald Shuey. For the first time in the history of our school a debate team has entered into the big- time competition of scholastic circles in Ohio and has come out in the limelight. Despite the fact that our debaters were inexperienced and had to pit their forces against teams which had debated many times and established records for themselves, they came out on top a goodly number of times. The universal subject for debate this year was the socialization of medicine—whether or not the government ought to adopt it. The task of collecting the material for the debates was enormous. Dozens of books had to be read and absorbed and the subject studied from every possible angle. It took many weeks of hard work to prepare the briefs and several more of practice before the team was in any condition for competition. The club boasted both an affirmative and a negative team, and both have done justice to our school. In the regular League and non-League debate season, our affirmative won from Wads¬ worth and lost to Canton, Wooster, Alliance and Chaney; the negative team lost to Louis¬ ville, Minerva, Chaney and Ashland. In the tournament at Canton in March, the affirma¬ tive team won from Cleveland Shaw and lost to Kent, Cleveland John Adams, and Bath; the negative team won from North Canton, Berla, Struthers, and lost to Canton McKinley. Several times during the year th e club brought various college debate teams to the school so the student body could have the opportunity to listen to more experienced debaters. 73 First Aid - - - - Emergency Lights BOTTOM ROW—Vivian Warzee, Lois Fohl, Ruth Henderson, Gladys Smith, Mary Van Horn, Winifred McCollum (President), Betty Jacoby (Secretary), Christene Smith, Mary Slicker, Mary Rohr.

TOP ROW—Maxine Daniel, Olga Kowell, Leila Trotter, Margaret Shaffer, Rita Meininger, Mary Barclay, Helen Dague, Winifred Kannel, Ann King, Helen Henrich. He who has seen the invaluable work that can be performed at an accident by a cool- headed person with some knowledge of first aid can well appreciate the work of the First Aid Club and its important place in extra activities. Club membership is open to all junior girls who might be interested in getting the valuable training. The course provides a good background for future training in nursing or any other branch of the medical profession. Club meetings are held every other Monday afternoon of the school year, at which time instructions in all the different phases of first aid are given. The girls are taught how to apply head, eye, jaw, arm, chest, hand, knee, ankle, and foot bandages and all kinds of splints and slings by actually applying them to each other. They must learn the treat¬ ment for anything from poison ivy to fractured skull. Club members are also given the opportunity to hear lectures by doctors, nurses, and other medical experts. Movies are shown demonstrating proper conduct and action in all kinds of emergen¬ cies where a calm mind and a little elementary knowledge can do wonders. After successfully completing a year ' s training in First Aid, these girls become eligible to join the Clinic Club. 74 I 1! v el I || Geography Club - - - - Search Lights BOTTOM ROW- -Ralph Beiner, Edna Ziegelhofer, Evelyn Villard, Helen Negulic, Eugene Flood, Mae Pearl Matthey, Merle Culler, Richard Converse.

They poke inquisi¬ tively into all corners of the globe, utilizing the slide and motion-picture projectors as en¬ lightening mediums with which to bring all the world to the back of a wall map. From the excellent vantage point of their desks, they watch the parade of nations and commerce pass in review. And not only that. Through ably presented reports and the usual illustrations, they dissect our great national industries: the glass, the aluminum, the rayon, and various others, first locating the source of scores of raw materials, then taking them to the con¬ verging point at the factories. They witness the materials being seemingly mutilated, blended, spun, crushed, moulded and polished in a maddening maze of grinding wheels. Then more journeys away from the converging point, off to thousands of ten-cent store counters to be bargained for by surging crowds of customers. All this and more the mem¬ bers witnessed, with only the help of a speaker, slides, numerous advertising booklets, and a vivid imagination. Flying trips to here and there. . . . Here to inspect this bit of geography. . . . There to discuss and ponder over that human relation to the earth. Much the same spirit have these people, that drove Columbus, Lewis and Clark, Peary and perhaps even Frank Buck to search out new places in order that their curiosity as to what is over the horizon may be satisfied. 75 Latin Club - - - - Roman Candles BOTTOM ROW—June Francis (Consul), Vera Giltz, Margaret Wheele, Irene Slinger, Dorothy Brenner, Betty Root (Aedile). TOP ROW—Miss Buch (faculty advisor), Helen Koehnlein (Quaestor), Ila Warstler (Aedile), Mary Frances Gatchell, Doris Root, Ethel Seiler (Consul), Thelma Tournay (Aedile). The members of this club find it an interesting task to make a study of the Latin people and the great ancient Roman civilization. Most of the work done by the club is conducted in a Roman manner by officers with Roman titles. At times the club gives Latin plays and re-enacts important events in Roman history. These plays are given solely for the pleasure and enjoyment of the club members. The plays, of course, are all given in the Latin language and much of the conversation of the club is also carried on through the medium of that ancient language. The special emphasis of the club is naturally placed on outstanding Roman events and dates. The lives of Roman notables are traced through history and a study is made of their virtues, failings, and contributions to their fellow men. By acquainting the club mem¬ bers with the Romans in this manner, they are capable of intelligently comparing the legal, literary, and architectural talents of that ancient civilization to those of this modern age. The club this year was particularly interested in Roman and Greek architecture and sculpture. Besides studying the architecture of many famous buildings, they also studied the people who built the magnificent works. 76 Manual Arts Club - - - - Course Lights LEFT TO RIGHT—Bernard Ott, John Gertz, Mr. Allison (faculty advisor), Kenneth Eberhardt, Harold Hartland, Frank Anslover, Charles Baughman, Cecil Joseph, Robert Piper. These embryo woodsmen pursue the study of the more common varieties of woods, which study calls for the preparing of samples, polishing them to display their good and interesting points in a favorable light, and the preparing of not-too-long compositions to explain what it is all about. To gain background they have dissected the local lumbering industry at first hand, bombarding the city ' s oak and pine merchants with question after question until they have acquired a vast store of knowledge concerning the commercial possibilities of their adopted hobby. But the wood itself is, after all, their dominating interest, and in the name of this interest they frequently go to the forest to pry into the innermost secrets of the tree ' s home life, learning which trees produce what kinds of bark, and a multitude of other details. The secrets of the tree rings are as an open book to them—it is merely a simple matter of cut¬ ting down a tree, and they can tell you its age almost to a year. They have distinctly passed the stage wherein they must look for a ' ' no trespassing sign in order to recognize an apple tree—they have no more fear of going through the agony of having a pear drop to their feet immediately after announcing a nearby tree as a maple. Indeed, wood is something more than wood to these lads, each variety has its characteristics, and they would greet with derision any unlucky person who happened to remark that white pine, for instance, is a dark wood when everybody knows that it ' s light (well, almost everybody). 77 Ohio History Club - - - - New Light BOTTOM ROW—Gertrude King, Mary Jane Walter, Lois Dieffenbacher, Walter Putman (President), Joseph Butcher, Geraldine Kohr (Secretary), Ethel Taylor.

TOP ROW-—Daniel Paulus, Maurice Schnierle, Mary Olive Wheeler, Clifford Bickel (Vice President), Wilbur Rennecker, Sylvester Bachtel, Mr. Hise (faculty advisor). They pry into dusty archives, bringing to light the secrets of the past, and Ohio, being one of the older states of the nation, is really a state with a past. The whole of the state is included in their studies, but, quite naturally, the predominating interest is Massillon—the first settlers, the canal, once a great artery of transportation with its fringe of roaring drink¬ ing places and entertainment halls, and its steady under-current of trade and commerce with the whole world. Each member of the club chooses some phase of Ohio history and makes himself an authority on the subject: wars, presidents, industries, cities, all of the multitudinous factors that go to make up the past of a state. They run down clues and find interesting reading on their chosen subject in dusty volumes hitherto untouched by inquiri ng hands. If written material is conspicuous by its absence, they set out in search of the town patriarchs, steeped in memories and historical lore of the vicinity and ready to impart it to anyone who will listen. The young historian starts the conversation and then directs traffic. Then, all the available information is gathered, the loose ends neatly tucked in, and the member puts his knowledge into the form of literary composition. As a climax of the club ' s activi¬ ties, mimeograph copies of the papers are made and collected into a book, a copy for each member. The local Chamber of Commerce has requested a copy of one of the papers to add to their collection of early data on Massillon because it fills a regrettable void in the knowledge in their possession. After warm weather sets in, the club members go en masse on gasoline pilgrimages to the nearer shrines of Ohio ' s history, Schoenbrunn, Zoar, Gnadenhutten, Chardon, and others to see the places they have studied and discussed at first hand.

Keep the light of life burning is the slogan of this year ' s gym classes. Every boy in these classes has the commendable idea of keeping a clea n and strong body, and, in so doing, keeping the light within shining brightly. The boys are supplied with fine equipment and make good use of it. Parallel and horizontal bars keep the pupils busy doing some of the difficult gymnastic feats. Mats are provided for those who are interested in the different phases of tumbling, such as pyramid building, rolls, head stands, flips, etc. One of the requirements made of a gym pupil is to climb to the ceiling of the gym on a rope without injuring his body. Relays are held and each pupil is trained in the art of running. The pupil is instructed in both speed and endur¬ ance. Basketball is played by the pupils at intervals during the semester. This year, as a highlight, a special class has been added to the curriculum, the mem¬ bers of which are instructed in advanced gymnastics. This class has proven quite a success and the boys taking part in it have received a great deal of benefit and pleasure in work¬ ing together on the more difficult gymnastic feats. The bright spot of the year for this class was an exhibition at one of the basketball games. I It is required of all sophomores to take gym, and many juniors and seniors return for additional training.

Some of these girls work hard each year to secure the necessary five hundred points to win a gym letter. Some requirements are hiking, playing tennis, basketball, hockey, and volley ball. Other benefits may be derived from these classes as a great variety of sports and exercises are offered. For those girls who wish to shine on a dance floor, ballroom dancing is taught. Others who would sparkle more behind the footlights are given some of the first fundamentals of tap dancing. Between halves at basketball games groups of girls performed gymnastic feats. This required a great deal of work and meant giving up time after school for tedious practice. Above all, a girl learns to handle herself gracefully wherever she may be. This is an asset not to be overlooked, as many a girl ' s position in life after leaving the high school depends upon her personal appearance. 80 Poster Club - - - - Light and Shadow BOTTOM ROW-—Pauline Reese, Virginia Earle, Carolyn Drake (President), Tony Midure (Vice President).

They mix sales psychology, water color, artistic ability, and midnight inspiration in just the right proportions, flatten the abstract concoction on paper, and pin it up all over the school in the form of eye-catching posters. The fortnightly meetings of the group are little more than stuffy formality—the real work is done in studio-like bedrooms, or in the quietude of a room co-inhabited by seemingly multitudinous lesser brothers and sisters and a blasting radio. Before any event of school-wide importance, the rooms and halls break out in a rash of appropriate posters. These are the fruits of the Poster Club. Skillfully constructed things they are, designed to attract the eye in a split second but to be remembered through the strenuous school day of absorbing knowledge and passing forbidden notes without being detected. The uninitiated would think, upon casually surveying a poster by these posteers, that it was a nice little picture (no reason at all why it couldn ' t have been he who made it). Having never made a picture more complicated than an unfavorable caricature of a teacher, he would be astounded at the labor involved in the creation of a poster. First an original idea must be conceived, a simple one to appeal to the masses. Then the method of presentation must be thought out, to say nothing of the colors to be used. Although no one but they would know it, a light pink sky really doesn ' t look at all bad if it is accompanied by, let us say, a dark purple land mass and an assortment of conventionally black palm trees (it was to be an original idea). All this for a poster that will be summed up in a brief glance. 81 Research Club - - - - Guiding Lights BOTTOM ROW—Fern Burkhart, Betty Waisner, Isabelle Fischer, Arthur Otto, Eleanor Kiley, Evelyn Holderbaum, Edna Nickle.

Here is excellent training for potential school teachers. The student who belongs to this club receives forty-five minutes of practical experience every day. Here teaching prob¬ lems are more than cold-print theory—they become living challenges that test the integrity of those who must cope with them. These club members become, in effect, moulders of young lives. The children in the opportunity classes are of various types—many are ambitious to succeed but slow in grasping and learning—some are unfortunate products of environment, and a few are of the type who just don ' t give a dam. Thus the work of the Research Club has a two-fold purpose: the children of the opportunity classes receive understanding in¬ struction; they receive a different, a more patient type of teaching than do most students. And the members of the club who have the initiative to spend time in the Research Club come into contact with school-room realities a dozen times a day. They learn how to be¬ come guiding lights, to straighten out weakness of character. The lessons learned by mem¬ bers of the Research Club are not applicable only to would-be teachers. The experience will help them in almost any course of life they may take for they learn above all, how to handle and get along with people. And what better lessons could any club teach? 82 Social Arts - - - - Socialites TABLE—Edith Heckert.

This club, under a capable director, is just exactly what the name implies. The main purpose of this club is to teach high school girls the art of getting along well in the social world. Many interesting subjects pertaining to social arts concern the girls during thet course of the year. They are but partially included in the following subjects: manners and morals and the relation existing between them; the development of man with regard to manners; the actions of a well-bred high school girl on the s treet; the fundamentals of manners in church, school and in other public places; the art of introducing people and the correct acknowledgment of introductions; and table etiquette. Taking table etiquette for an example, the girls are taught how to correctly set a table, how to serve correctly, and the correct use of tableware. The girls are advised on how to entertain properly, both boy and girl friends; how to act in public places when accompanied by a boy friend; and the general principles of manners and courtesy. These phases of social life are taught by means of talks by the director, reports by individual members of the club, books on the particular subjects, and practical experience. 83 Stamp Club - - - - Philatelites FIRST ROW—Clyde Cooper, Monroe Heinbuch, Paul Cooper (Secretary), Jimmy Koontz (President), Kenneth Schory (Treasurer), Bill Anthony (Vice President), Bob Thayer.

If all the members of the Stamp Club cannot become kings or queens, at least they have chosen a right royal hobby. Victims of a mania which has taken into its clutches one out of every eight persons in Germany, one out of every fifteen in England, and one out of every fifty in the United States, these young people have chosen a hobby which in future years will provide them a fascinating and delightful form of relaxation from their work and worries. The purpose of the club is to study stamp collecting as a hobby and as an investment. Meetings are held every other Tuesday afternoon of the school year at which lectures are given and the members of the club discuss the stamp business from every angle. Most important to an amateur at first, is a study of the stamps of various countries, their classification, and value. After this has been thoroughly studied the members are introduced to the rare and valuable in the trade. (Few good stamps will ever pass un¬ knowingly from the hands of these young enthusiasts.) Following this, a study in speciali¬ zation is taken. Members are acquainted with the valuable commemoratives which appear from time to time, frequently on the anniversaries of great historical events. The dozens of varieties of United States Stamps are studied; much time is spent on the interesting stamps from the colonies of the United States, France, and England; and the more recent and very- interesting Air Mail Stamps are thoroughly discussed. The members are educated in the business of trading stamps and they then are full-fledged stamp collectors. 84 !

Time and space mean nothing to the members of this club—they can, in the space of a few minutes, jump from a study of the monstrous animals of antiquity—the Brontosaurus, perhaps, to take up with equal fervor an inquiry into the present fauna of some distant land. Bats, snakes, frogs, and Sophie, the live black widow spider (sophomore please stand back, she bites), each received an exceptionally close scrutiny. All the feathery, furry, and finny creatures have their habits and their habitats thoroughly pried into—a poor animal hides no secrets from the inquisitive eyes of these zoologists. Animals and their economic value to man (which are good eatin ' and which are not, which are harmful, and all that sort of thing) are discussed; a round of reports, movies, and laboratory work all go into the activities of the group. But the climax of the whole season comes when they take their bird hike through the shady groves of nature ' s great outdoors, many of them armed with cameras and field glasses. Drama lurks around every corner. Tense hushes while they creep up to a group of birds feeding in a clearing, nervous hands fumbling with binoculars, excited whispered battles over whether the birds in question are cardinals, jays, or crows. Members shushing other unruly members (the birds might hear). Suddenly the whole group of birds takes alarm and darts off with alarming swiftness. Everyone berates everyone else for frighten¬ ing the poor birds just as someone was getting his camera in focus. But soon the budding young ornithologists get themselves under control and look around for another clearing of birds where they can throw a little more light on their consuming interest. !

The Hi-Y is the national organization made up of high school fellows. Its program is carried on outside the school. The Massillon Chapter meets every Monday evening at the Y. M. C. A., Mr. Knight and Mr. Carr being the advisors of the club. The purpose of the club is to create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community high standards of Christian character. The Hi-Y members have tried to carry out to the best of their ability the Hi-Y platform of Clean Speech, Clean Athletics, Clean Scholarship, and Clean Living throughout the past year. These fellows keep in contact with other Ohio chapters: by sending officers to the Hi-Y training camp in the summer; by sending delegates to the Older Boys ' Conferences; and by having speakers who go over with them topics of interest to other Hi-Y clubs. The Hi-Y also carries on different activities such as joint meetings with the Girls ' Friendship Club, Friendship Week, a school rally, and other events throughout the year. The club ' s social events in the past year consist of several dances, roller skating par¬ ties, a hayride, and several other activities. All of these were given, not to furnish profit to the club, but to make it possible for the members of the club and students to enjoy them¬ selves in wholesome ways. And the Hi-Y hopes as a group that all who had any part in, or attended any, of these events enjoyed them as much as the members enjoyed sponsor¬ ing them. ' PAUL E. BROWN Head Coach W n «WM flH J IW i UCXHT. K XmiflU t - ntnssLfm; tctmmi lUKniW.TiunKK Season Review The most glorious year in the athletic history of Massillon Washington High School has been completed. We present the Massillon Tigers—scholastic foot¬ ball champions of the State of Ohio, the Northeastern Ohio Big Six League, and of Stark County. Undefeated and untied, Coach Paul E. Brown ' s boys waded through ten straight opponents, with a point-a-minute offensive, to become Massillon ' s first undefeated team since 1922. Without a doubt, the 1935 Tigers were the greatest football team to ever represent our city. For the second successive year, our boys remained undefeated and untied in the Northeastern Ohio Big Six League. Alliance fell 27-0, Barberton 34-0, and Niles 53-6. These victories gave Washington High School the necessary three legs for permanent possession of the silver football trophy annually awarded by the league. Our Stark County opponents, as usual, proved to be our toughest com¬ petitors. The Alliance High Aviators were beaten 27-0, proving difficult to handle with Dr. Wilcoxen again back at the helm. In the crucial game of the year, Jimmy Aiken ' s Canton McKinley Bulldogs were defeated 6-0 in a stirring and bitter battle. Motion pictures revealed that the Tigers had scored in the first four minutes of play, but the officials ruled otherwise at the time. This decision turned the game into a conservative battle, with the Tigers proving themselves real champions under pressure. We defeated the Bulldogs at their very best! No team is greater than its captain. That is why the 1935 Tigers were cham¬ pions—-they were led by August Morningstar, the finest leader in the history of our school. Augie teamed with Charley Anderson to give Massillon the finest pair of ends in the state. The rest of the line consisted of big Don Voss at center , red-headed Juny Held and reliable Neri Buggs at the tackles, with Walter Woods at right guard and Jim McDew and Ralph Updegraff alternating at the other. Although these linemen do not often make the headlines, yet they do make the football team. We appreciate, and are proud of, our stalwarts. Working behind this powerful line were the brilliant ball carriers, Jacob Gillon, Echo Herring, and Bob Glass. Howard Dutton and Michael Bylene gave Massillon the finest quarterbacking, passing and punting in the history of Washington High School. Massillon dominated the All-County team, seven regulars being chosen; namely, Captain Morningstar at end, Buggs at tackle, Wood at guard, Voss at center, Dutton at quarterback, Glass at fullback, and Molinski at halfback. Fur¬ thermore, Augie Morningstar and Howard Dutton made the All-Ohio team at their respective positions. Following the season, the Booster Club gave the team the biggest and finest banquet ever seen in these parts. Fully six hundred people attended the occa¬ sion and Noble Kizer of Purdue, the speaker of the evening, did not disappoint them. This gathering was fitting conclusion to a perfect season. We have reached the absolute zenith—we are champions of all that we survey. Thus 1935 becomes the greatest athletic year in the history of Massillon. 89 CAPTAIN AUGUST MORNINGSTAR Leader and competitor—second to none. i n - w r t v rr.rTtn ' tumv ' K rt . n rroi m m rvs §g|® MC 0 V [•i Si ' i y.Jii ' . ; ' i 5P C° tiGER 6? 2RS SEEK ELUSIVE 1 r , STARI C COUNTY TITLE v . 7H 46-0 S £5?

WIDDOES HUGH McGRANAHAN AKRON EAST The grand opening of the 1935 season took place before 10,000 wildly cheering fans as the Tigers crushed Akron East 70-0. Without a doubt it was quite the most colorful show ever seen on Massillon Field. In a setting of newly painted green stands and a beautiful green turf, the American Legion Drum Corps gave a stirring drill; our Washington High band, newly outfitted and drilled to perfection, gave a brilliant exhibition; the newly formed Junior Booster Section yelled itself hoarse; and lastly, our team gave such an exhibition as to excite state championship hopes. It didn ' t take long for the boys in the shining orange and black satin suits to prove their superiority. After receiving the ball on the 37 yard line, the Tigers punched their way straight up the field in eight successive plays for a touchdown. This, however was just the beginning of a flood of touchdowns, six different men taking a part in the scoring. Our boys amassed 24 first downs to 7 for the Orientals. The forward passing attack, engineered by Howard Dutton and Michael Byelene gained 205 yards in the course of the evening. Irregardless of •this fact, however, power was the keynote of the Tiger attack; a more relentless, driving offensive was never seen in our stadium. The 1935 edition was truly a blocking machine. Defensively the Tigers were also superb, the penetration of the husky Massillon linemen being especially noticeable. It was also evident that Captain Morningstar was to go down in history as one of the outstanding line backers in Bengal history. Thus begins Coach Paul E. Brown ' s fourth year at the helm of Washi ngton High School ' s athletic destinies. It was a gala and fitting opening of a perfect season. LOUIS FEINMAN Student Mgr. S. E. ACKLEY mokw ngstar s DILLON A ; . JOHN DAVID Basketball Student Mgr. CLEVELAND SHAW Jack Snavely ' s Shaw High gridders stood next in Massillon ' s path to a state champion¬ ship. The Cleveland boys, however, appeared awe-struck and thoroughly convinced of the superiority of the Tigers, even before the game started, and .the Massillon boys had little dif¬ ficulty in brushing them aside 66-0. For Coach Brown, the game was an experimental opportunity that he did not pass up: he constantly tested and changed the offense and the various players in an effort to have the ma¬ chine at its best for the crucial game with Portsmouth. Then, again, he had no desire to run up a large score on an honored opponent. • The Bengal tide was not to be checked, however, as the giant Tiger forward wall ripped the Shaw line to shreds, permitting Jacob Gillon, Bob Glass, Echo Herring, Howard Dutton, etc., to run wild. The home boys ran up the staggering total of 27 first downs. Quickly sens¬ ing Shaw ' s weakness against passes, the quarterback twins hurled the ball for a gain of 145 yards. Morningstar ' s reception of passes, with men closely covering him, was a feature of the game. The game was the first road trip for the Tigers and fully 1000 Massillonians followed the team to Cleveland. Our band also gave the 5,000 spectators something to talk about in Cleve¬ land. Due to the terrific offensive of the Tigers, all eyes in the state now focused on Massillon. Thus the second niche in our drive to a state championship was carved. LOUIS LASH Junior Mgr. ROBERT IMMEL Junior Mgr. CHARLES ANDERSON JUNIOR ANDERSON PORTSMOUTH Realizing that the Portsmouth game would be crucial, the orange and black forces left Thursday for their destination, spending the night in Chillicothe and proceeding to Portsmouth the next evening for the battle. And well it was that Coach Brown took such precautions to have the club at its best, for the Trojans proved a stout foe. Without any doubt, the Tigers played their best ball game of the year at the Ohio River city. Held scoreless the first quarter by a stubborn, fighting defense, the Tigers were able to score on a forward pass, Dutton to Momingstar, soon after the second period opened. This, however, closed the scoring for the half, even though the Massillon boys were much super¬ ior as far as statistics were concerned. The Brownmen chose to receive to open the second half and it was here that the spirit of the Trojan defenses was broken. Receiving the ball on the Massillon 26 yard line, Howard Dutton, running behind perfect interference, dashed 74 yards for a touchdown. Morningstar ' s block on the Portsmouth safety man was a beautiful piece of work. Following this demoraliz¬ ing run, the locals were able to score five times, chiefly by use of a powerful off-tackle play. A terrific wave of interferers, led by Walter Wood from his right guard position, made these sweeps and off tackle thrusts particularly effective. Also, when Echo Herring broke into the game he proceeded to cause the Portsmouth forces no end of worry with his deceptive run¬ ning. The final score was Massillon 46—Portsmouth 0. Those fans that were unable to make the trip were provided a means to follow the for¬ tunes of their favorites. A play by play description of the game was broadcast to an overflow Football Party of 1500 fans in the auditorium and gym. As for the players themselves, the memory of the trip will always be a happy one as they think over the Ohio State-Kentucky game, the pillow fight, in Portsmouth, and chicken dinners. Thus we convince another section of the state that we are state champions. NERI BUGGS MICHAEL BYELENE EUU ErffuBQHftW — MATTHEW CARTER HOWARD DUTTON YOUNGSTOWN SOUTH The Massillon coaching staff fully expected a let-down the week following the Ports¬ mouth game, but it did not materialize. The Tigers looked brilliant as they defeated Busty Ashbaugh ' s Youngstown South gridders 64-0. The Orange and Black boys were a sym¬ phony in football machines as they flashed power, deception and general football it for the Mahoning Valley folks, who expected to lose, but were dumfounded at the ease and dispatch with which the Massillon boys accomplished it. Appearing in their rubber clothes for the first time, the Tigers received and, aided by a pass, Dutton to Jacob Gillon, marched to a touchdown. This was only the beginning, how¬ ever, as in the second quarter our boys scored 26 points, getting a running start as Charley Anderson ran back a South kickoff 80 yards for a touchdown. Charley was running so hard he appeared to have been shot from a gun. In the third quarter, the most colorful play of the season was executed. It read, Voss to Jacob Gillon, double pass to Dutton, lateral pass to Charley Anderson, forward pass to Morningstar, for a touchdown. The Youngstown fans were left astounded. It was left for little Edgar Herring to provide the finishing touches to the evening ' s entertainment. He did so by scampering 64 yards for a touchdown through the Red and Blue forces. Substitutes then proceeded to carry on from the point where the regulars left off. Massillon had a 24-5 margin in first downs. Fully 10,000 people witnessed the encounter, approximately 1000 of these being Tiger fans. The Youngstown district was convinced that they had been privileged to see the 1935 Scholastic Champions of Ohio in action. ODELL GILLON JACOB GILLON BARBERTON Massillon ' s anticipated let down finally arrived when the Tigers defeated Jimmy Price ' s Barberton Magics. On paper, however, the Bengals were not as far off color as the fans tended to believe, scoring 34 points to none for the Magics, completing 20 first downs against 6 and not being forced to punt in the course of the evening. Barberton came to Massillon expecting to get licked. When on offense, the Pricemen used a long count before starting a play, all in an effort to waste time and keep the score from mounting. On defense, the Magics set up a five man line that would allow short but certain gains, permitting several secondary tacklers to gang the ball carrier, thus cutting down the number of long runs. This also placed an extra man in the secondary defense to guard against passes. Massillon fans, however could not understand the necessity for such strategy, particularly since the Barberton boys were extremely big and capable. It appear¬ ed, that with such material, the Magics should have been able to come to Massillon and have played the Tigers in a normal, offensive and competitive way. The game was entirely lacking in long runs, forward passes or brilliant blocking. The Tigers had to be content to rip off touchdowns by the plodding, but sure method. Five dif¬ ferent Massillon men figured in the scoring, all from short plunges. This victory was the first N. E. O. win for the Tigers, and so, while colorless to the 7,000 fans yet it was an important conquest for the Orange and Black. EDGAR HERRING JUNIOR HELD . ANDERSOM; ALLIANCE ROBERT HOWARD BILL LEE s With crafty Dr. George Wilcoxen back at the helm, the Alliance High Aviators gave the Tigers about all they cared to handle, finally succumbing 27-0. A crowd of 6,000 people saw an Alliance team at its peak, which produced a vicious ball game between two teams evenly matched in weight. The game was filled with trickery, as the Alliance boys used a delayed count on of¬ fense, a razzle-dazzle spread formation, a short kick on the kick-off and a constantly shifted defense. However, Coach Brown anticipated these things as he had competed before against Wilcoxen teams. To offset the long offensive count, the Massillon boys put a premium on Possession of the Ball ; to meet the spread formation, the Tigers displayed one of their own, which soon convinced the Aviators of the futility of ever getting the locals excited because of such offensive maneuvers; and lastly, the Massillon boys found a hole on the weak side of the Aviator ' s line, through which Bob Glass poured himself for four touchdowns, thus upsetting the shifting defense which the Alliance team presented. | Uj The Orange and Black made 13 first downs to 5 for the Aviators. A combination of butter-fingers and a dew soaked ball kept the Tiger yardage via the forward pass route to 26 yards. Again, our Stark County opponents proved to be our toughest. With the exception of Canton, Alliance held the Tigers to the lowest score of the season. It was a pleasure to beat a worthy opponent at their best. JAMES McDEW ■mum B SSWmwmlmim JAMES MILLER jjPppjr 1 1 1 ' s fe. - ir UiQODS EDWARD MOLINSKI JACK MOFFETT AKRON WEST With the first leg of the Stark County Championship safely negotiated, the Tigers next met and defeated a scrappy Akron West eleven 52-7, thus continuing their drive to the su¬ premacy of the state. With victory hopelessly beyond their reach, the rubber city lads came to Massillon with the avowed intention of scoring—and score they did, thus becoming the first team in 1935 to score upon Coach Brown ' s boys; in fact, the second team in two years to do so. By in¬ terspersing a lateral pass and basketball pass with a running play inside of Massillon ' s right defensive tackle, the trick was turned soon after the third quarter opened. Since the wind was a terrific factor, Captain Morningstar elected to have it at the backs of the locals; West, in turn, received. Being unable to gain, the Cowboys punted, but the ball travelled straight up in the air due to the wind. The Tigers then scored in three plays, a pass, a sweep and a plunge. This story was twice repeated in the first quarter, as the Orange and Black scored three touchdowns in nine plays! Echo Herring entered the fray in the second quarter and gave one of the greatest exhi¬ bitions of open field running ever seen on Massillon Field. The down field blocking of Voss and Woods was particularly effective. The Tigers made a total of 20 first downs to 8 for Akron West. The game was a success for both camps—West succeeded in scoring and Massillon was scored upon while winning. It was believed by many, that this last factor would make the Tigers a better ball club. WALTER RUSS CAPT. AUGUST MORNINGSTA1 SPILL MAW l CARTER - m -C.. v A W -■ ' .iMStlffi JOHN SNYDER DON SNAVELY NEW PHILADELPHIA Unleashing a smooth and powerful offense, the Massillon boys next buried a highly tout¬ ed New Philadelphia team under a 65-0 count. Even this score, however, does not tell the story, as the locals could have made many more points had the desired to run up a bigger margin. The Quakers huge in size and defeated but once in two years, simply stepped out of their class by engaging the Tigers. The occasion was Dad ' s Day and it attracted some odd 7000 spectators, many of whom came from the Quaker City. Statistics clearly show the picture. The Tigers made 28 first downs against 6 for John Brickies ' men. Furthermore, the forward pass gained over 200 yards for the Orange and Black. So versatile was the local attack that eight different men scored. The New Phila¬ delphia boys appeared dazed and awe struck as Charley Anderson and Augie Morning- star caught short and long passes with ease. John Snyder, playing the entire game at full¬ back, gave a fine account of himself. Jim McDew ' s fine defensive work was outstanding. Probably the feature of the game occurred at the opening of the fourth quarter after the Quaker first team had driven the Massillon second stringers back to their two yard line. In the time between quarters, Coach Brown inserted the regulars to test out an eight man line. How well the experiment worked is proven by the fact that Massillon regained pos¬ session of the ball on the nine yard line—without permitting the score! Thus the team starts gathering momentum for the classic clash with Canton. RMDIRSOM WOODS MZDtW DON VOSS RALPH UPDEGRAFF NILES The Tigers tuned up for the Canton clash by easily overwhelming Niles 53-6. With Dut¬ ton and Buggs not even in uniform, due to colds, the locals presented a patched, but effect¬ ive lineup. Furthermore, the second team played over half of the game, Coach Brown not wishing to risk injury to any of the regulars. The game proved a good lesson in pass defense to the Tigers, as the Dragons gained 176 yards by that method. A short pass over the line of scrimmage followed by a lateral and a 40 yard run enabled the Niles team to score. The play was perfectly executed. Passes also led to four Massillon touchdowns. One pass, Byelene to Morningstar trav¬ eled 52 yards in the air, to become the longest completed aerial seen in these parts for many years. Michael Byelene was particularly outstanding throughout the entire game, complet¬ ing touchdown runs of 57, 27, and 25 yards respectively. The game served its purpose as it kept the Tigers in trim for the all important game with the Bulldogs, yet at the same time, none of the boys were injured. And so, Massillon entered the final game of the season, untied and undefeated with the State Championship at stake. WALTER WOODS AIKEN AND BROWN MASSILLON—6 CANTON—0 On a snow covered field, with an undefeated season and the State Championship at stake, the Massillon Tigers defeated the Canton Bulldogs 6-0. This brought to a close the most glorious season in the athletic history of Washington High School. It was a bitter battle from start to finish, the Tigers glorious in victory, the Bulldogs gal¬ lant in defeat. Without any doubt, it was the most vicious game ever played in the long feud between the two schools. The McKinley boys were defeated at their very best. The 14,000 spectators soon sensed the dramatic struggle that they were privileged to witness and the tension in the stands was terrific. The eyes of the State were focused on Lehman Sta¬ dium. Since the Brown-Aiken era started in Stark County football, the Massillon-Canton game has become the most important and outstanding high school game in the county. Captain Morningstar won the toss and elected to receive. That both teams intended to deal out punishment became evident as Charley Anderson went down under a swarm of Canton tacklers on the 29 yard line on the kick off. Failing to make a first down, Dutton placed a beautiful punt out of bounds on the Canton 14 yard line. As the Bulldogs attempt¬ ed to kick out of danger, Don Voss broke through and blocked the kick and then recovered it on the Canton 9 yard line! Dutton then failed to gain on a spinner, but Jake Gillon got 5 yards on an end sweep. Dutton then carried the ball to the one yard line, making it fourth down with goal to go. Gillon then hit off tackle and crossed the McKinley goal line, but the officials missed the play and the touchdown was not allowed. Motion pictures revealed that Jake had placed the ball fully one yard behind the McKinley goal line! With the ball on their own one inch line, Canton punted to mid field where Gillom fumbled, McKin¬ ley recovering. This series of breaks and misfortunes changed the game from a rout to con¬ servative, bitter battle . Canton ' s gain in morale was Massillon ' s loss, and it took real men to overcome such odds. In the second period, due to a perfectly executed shovel pass and a 15 yard roughing penalty on Molinski, the Red and Black was able to drive to the Massillon 3 yard line. How¬ ever, the Tigers had a carefully rehearsed eight-man line awaiting such an occasion, and the Bulldogs were repulsed. It was a courageous and gallant goal line stand. In the third period the Tigers made the all important touchdown. After recovering a Canton fumble on the 21 yard line, the Bengals punched over the only score of the day. Bob Glass and Howard Dutton, operating behind Morningstar, Held, Buggs and Wood, alter¬ nated off tackle plays with line smashes until the ball rested securely behind the Canton goal line. In the last quarter the Tigers played safe with the margin which they had earned. Spread formations, trick plays, forward passes and laterals all went for naught as the Bull¬ dogs gave everything they had in an attempt to score. The locals, at one time, marched 40 yards straight down the field, quarterback Dutton running once a fourth down so that the Tigers might maintain possession of the ball. It was a daring and brilliant piece of work. The game ended with Massillon in possession of the ball on the Canton 44 yard line. Both teams finished the gruelling battle in splendid shape. Canton did not make a sub¬ stitution, while Coach Brown made but two, both for information purposes. The entire Massillon team will go down in history, known as a perfectly coordinated machine with a will to win that just wouldn ' t be licked. Captain Morningstar was second to no man on the field. Howard Dutton, Jim McDew, Don Voss and Bob Glass were also out¬ standing because of their ability to arise and be at their best when the occasion demanded it. The Tigers had what it took when it was needed.—The Mark of Champions. We hail the 1935 football team of Massillon Washington High School, Scholastic Football Cham¬ pions of the State of Ohio. 10 ] ■■ vjr.np-jimv ' j ' ntiliH The dads of the players are honored on Fathers ' Day.

EDWARDS MORNINGSTAR HERMAN GATEWOOD Season Review The 1935-1936 Tigers compiled the greatest basketball record in the history of Washing¬ ton High School. Fourteen victories in sixteen starts for a winning percentage of .875 was the official season ' s record. This gave Washington High an undefeated N. E. O. Bix Six League Championship and a tie with Canton McKinley for the Stark County Title. Playing the stiffest schedule a Massillon team had ever been called upon to face, the Bengals started off with a rush, winning six consecutive games. Included as outstanding victories in this string was the one over New Philadelphia on their own small floor, 26-22; the win over Barberton, which was their only loss of the regular season, 29-22; and lastly, the victory over Youngstown ' s city champions, Massillon 37, Youngstown Chaney 20. The streak ended when the Tigers lost to the Canton Bulldogs on the spacious auditorium floor. This loss, however, was later atoned for, proving the extreme handicap of the Canton court. Following this defeat, the Orange and Black started another string of victories, getting as far as five this time. Several close games were included in these successes, including a one point victory over Elyria and a two point defeat of St. Vincents. Akron North, the defending State Champions, was decisively defeated 46-32. Billy Rohr scored 30 points in this game, giving the greatest shooting exhibition ever seen in our gymnasium. Salem, the de¬ fending N. E. O. Champion, succumbed rather easily on their home floor, 29-16. Akron South put an end to this second winning streak, 18-34. The Cavaliers experienced a well nigh perfect night, playing their best game of the season against the Tigers. The loss to South, however, only paved the way for the climax of the season as the Tigers defeated the Canton Bulldogs, 31-29, in one of the most rousing basketball games ever ] 08 GILLON SPILLMAN D. SHERTZER C. ANDERSON UTH played in Massillon. Due to illness, Bill Rohr was not able to start the game, but his team¬ mates played inspired ball until he could come to their aid. Ernie Edward, in his follow up work, was particularly outstanding, while George Gatewood and Don Shertzer, by brilliant shooting, contributed the greatest share of the points. In the second half, Rohr entered the game, scored 8 points, and led the Tigers to their most important victory of the year. The regular season closed with successive victories over Akron East and Akron West, two of our perrenial enemies. In the course of the season, five Akron schools were met and all but one was defeated. In tournament play, the Tigers, along with Barberton, Canton, and Akron South, were seeded as the outstanding teams of northeastern Ohio. The locals drew a bye in the first round. In the second round, the Orange and Black boys played their best game of the season, routing Akron St. Vincents 39-22. The next game, however, witnessed a complete reversal of form, as an inferior Akron Buchtel team eliminated the Tigers 25-22. Newark, a team that lost more games than it won in the course of the regular season ' s schedule, eventually won the State Championship. The Massillon Reserve team had an identical season to the Varsity ' s, winning fourteen of sixteen games. Although they numbered but six and were extremely small in stature, team play and fight amply carried them through to a very successful season. They will be worthy additions to next year ' s varsity squad. Thus we close the athletic calendar for 1935-1936. Twenty-six times our varsity took the field against the finest scholastic competition in the state—twenty-four times the Tiger reigned supreme. Athletics were thus conducted for a winning percentage of .923, the highest in the history of Washington High School. To Coach Brown and his two colleagues, Widdoes and McGranahan; to the boys on the teams; to the Student Body—we extend our sincerest con¬ gratulations. 109 Here we see the bosses warming the bench for a change. The sort of teamwork that wins us games. Practice sessions that go on until all hours. The cheerleaders again, and part of the frenzied rooters. 110 TOP ROW—Tom Paul (Student Mgr.); H. McGranahan (Coach); R. Howard; B. Wallace; E. Huth; G. Peters (Student Mgr.) BOTTOM ROW—P. Hintz; H. Knowlton; E. Sedjo; J. Buttermore (Capt.); Miglich; D. Uth. Reserves S The Reserve Team had a season parallel in success to that of the varsity, winning fourteen out of sixteen games. The Cubs, coached by Hugh McGranahan, were greatly handicapped by lack of size, but they more than made up for this by being fast and smart. The Reserve squad, which is essentially a feeder for the varsity, again fulfilled its purpose. Outstanding men like Sedjo, Howard, Buttermore, Knowlton, etc., will be valuable additions to the 1936 varsity squad.

He was suddenly called to England and ad¬ monished his wife to forward the letter to him in London immediately upon its arrival. After three weeks, his business done, he was ready to return home but did not dare to leave for fear that the letter he had expected in New York would cross him. So he cabled his wife, Have not yet received the letter. Where is it? The wife cabled back, You took the key to the mail box with you. The man, frantic because of the waste of time and exasperated with himself for being so stupid, enclosed the key in an envelope and sent it back to his wife, telling her he would wait for the letter. Several weeks passed and still no letter. Why did it not arrive? (Answer in Adv. Section) A CASE OF INSIGHT Mr. Simpson met a friend whom he had not seen for many years. The friend said, I married, shortly after I last saw you, someone you never knew. And this, presenting a young girl, is my daughter. Her name is the same as her mother ' s. Mr. Simpson patted the child on the head and said, I am glad to know you, Margaret, and resumed his conversation. How did he know the child ' s name was Margaret? (Answer in Adv.

When he had finished his meal he paid the cashier, an attractive young girl, who said, Thanks, Sailor. How did she know that he was a sailor? THE BABY WORM ' S TURN A mother worm, a father worm and a baby worm lived happily in a hole in a verdant field. One day a neighbor told them that he had overheard the farmer say that he was going to plough up the field the following day. In great consternation the worm family packed and moved over the wall into the next field, where they dug themselves a hole and went snugly to sleep. The next morning, as is the habit among worms as well as among mortals, the baby worm got up first, crawled out of the hole, looked around and saw that their old field was really ploughed up. He said with great enthusiasm and relief, Gee, I ' m glad we moved over here, all five of us. How come he said All five of us ? (Answer in Adv. Section) EARLY AMERICAN (Answer in Adv.

Methods in education, as well as in business, must be modern. Subject matter, also, must meet present-day requirements—and that is why we have added to our courses Applied Psychology,Sociology, Direct Mail Advertising, Business Management and Office Procedure. You must keep in step with the times. The Massillon Commercial Institute, Inc . R. R. REYNOLDS M. D. H. W. BELL M. D. H. P. HART M. D. J. J. SOUTH M. D. GEO. WENGER M. D. D. S. GARDNER M. D. P. A. PAULSON M. D. G. C. GOTSCHALL D. D. S. r Compliments of P. GARDNER W. A. BARTON D. D. S. D. D. S. J. S. WILLIAMS M. D. DEFINITIONS Gasoline is stuff that if you don ' t use good in your car, it doesn ' t run as well as if. Snuff is stuff that when you don ' t feel entirely well, you ' re not quite up to it. A straw is something that you drink soda water through two of them. A newspaper is what people don ' t like the editorials in sometimes, so why don ' t they read a different one? Bacon is stuff that eggs don ' t taste good without it, unless you don ' t like bacon (or perhaps you do). Daylight Saving Time is like when you get up early, it ' s an hour later somewhere where they don ' t have it, unless it ' s Central Standard Time, when it ' s the same, except unless they have Daylight Saving Time, too. A double chin is what ladies look best without and makes them feel better if they haven ' t got, or, if they have, have their faces lifted, which they don ' t. A doorknob is a thing a revolving door goes around without. A fern is a plant that you ' re supposed to water it once a day, but when you don ' t it dies, but if you do, it dies any¬ way, only not so soon. A teacher was telling her class little stories in natural history. She asked if anyone could tell her what a ground hog was. Up went a hand frantically. ' Well Tommy, you may tell us what a ground hog is. ' ' And Zorger answered, Please teach¬ er, it ' s a sausage. REPARTEE The late William Rockefeller used to tell with delight a story illustrative of the financial genius of his famous bro¬ ther John. When John was a little fellow, he would begin, a so-called Indian doc¬ tor visited our town with a cure-all. The doctor, to get trade started, took out a bright new silver dollar and said he would auction it off. How much am I bid, he said, for this bright silver dollar? But the crowd was cautious, silent, suspicious. No bids were heard. How much am I bid, shouted the Indian doc¬ tor again. Come come, gents! A nickel, a dime? ' I ' ll bid a nickel, piped John D. Rock¬ efeller af last. The dollar is yours, boy, said the doctor, hand up your nickel. Take it out of the dollar, piped lit¬ tle John D., and gimme ninety-five cents change. Tannehill—Elections are held the first Tuesday after the first Monday in No¬ vember. Eva Shorb (In all seriousness)—What if the first Tuesday comes on Sunday? Abraham Lincoln married a Tod, and was once asked why his wife ' s people did not spell their name with two ' d ' s, Todd, which would be more aristocratic. Well, he answered, God spells his name with one ' d ' and I guess what ' s good enough for God is good enough for us. 126 GENSEMER BROS.
