Price on July 24, 1939 Greenfield and particularly the Greenfield Schools lost a talented musician, a great teacher and a devoted friend. From boyhood to the close of his eventful life Mr. Price studied, composed, directed, and taught music. To him music was the most important thing in life and he therefore gave to this art all of his great ability and unflagging energy and whole-hearted devotion. Those who knew Mr. Price recognized his skill as a musician and his ability as a composer. The works of the masters he played with amazing beauty. At his touch the pealing organ became a thing of beauty- to soothe and heal and bless all who would but listen. It was not however his skill as a musician that endeared Mr. Price to the boys and girls and the teachers who had the good fortune to be associated with him. To these he was a kind and courteous friend and a capable and inspiring teacher. His pupils respected and loved him because he had for them profound respect and an abiding good will. They therefore responded to his direction and guidance gladly and without hesitation. His ready wit, his keen sense of humor, his high intelligence and his lofty ideals combined to make him a truly inspiring teacher. To his fellow teachers he was courteous, accommodating and cooperative. For every school activity he would gladly lend his assistance and his talents. He was never too busy to help those who needed his services. We mourn the passing of our good friend and delightful companion but Death's bright Angel has spoken and even now we may believe that he has joined The Choir invisible Of those immortal dead who live again In lives made better by their presence. QLHASSES THE 1940 DRAGON SENIOR CLASS OFFICERS JAMES D. DANIELS JOHN WAGNER GEORGE Fox Vice President President Secretary-treasurer The Class of 1940 wishes to extend to you a cordial welcome to Class Day. This is our day, the day when we assemble to give you a resume of our past, a sight of our present, and a prophesy of our future. In doing so, we may sound a little optimistic or egotistical, but as this is our last student activity it is only fitting that we forget our short-comings and sing our praises. Soon we will be seeking fame and fortune in many walks of life, but let us always remember our experiences and happy friendships at McClain. We wish to express our sincere gratitude to our teachers, parents, and friends for their assistance and guidance in helping us attain our present goal, and to the late Mr. E. L. McClain and family for giving us this beautiful school. We have had wonderful chances, in a wonderful high school, and now it is up to us to push on, not to be contented with what we have gained, but determined to make a place in the world worthy of the ideals of McClain High School. - John Wagner William Adams Vernon Bailey Charles Bainter Edward Beatty Betty Blaine Mary L.

Our high school stands unique in history The products of a donor's love And we'll ever sing his praises Our gratitude and pride to prove And let us strive to live our motto, With loyal hearts and true, We'll aim to use the living present For the good that we can do.

The committee on Class Prophecy, that is, Isabelle, David, and I, received a radio message from that distant planet the other day. Among the many wonderful inventions, according to the radio message, is the can't-get-something-for-noth- ing future broadcasting machine. We requested that the future be predicted for the Class of '40. Here is what we received in return: The World's Fair of 1950, located in Midway of Greenfield, has drawn a great proportion of 1940's esteemed Senior Class. For example, that leather- lunged barker, whose voice you can hear for blocks, is our own Charles E. Bainter, drawing in the suckers to John T. Stewart's amazing collection of freaks, who got into their present condition by drinking some of Ellsworth Cook's famous patent medicine concoctions which he first poured to- gether in McClain's chemistry laboratory. Among Mr. Stewart's fine collection we find Ralph Hines, whom our impresario has billed as the world's largest midget. Carl Clyburn is found in the next booth down the street, where his sign proclaims him the world's greatest juggler. Per- sonally, we think he got that way from practicing jitterbug steps while delivering groceries. We see parading up and down the streets Robert Miller, who, despite his professional work in basket- ball, is now selling balloons,-which is as near as he can get to anything resembling a basketball. Jake Wagoner has set up a modern revival in the middle of the Fair, he himself appearing as head evangelist. One of his methods is to have as helpers taking up the evening collection chorus girls, among whom are former McClain students, Carolyn Dwyer, Emily Jane Schinner, and Kath- leen Taylor. Another big attraction of the Fair is the hitch- 'em-up matrimonial clinic, which is drawing a huge business,-but look who's running it! Betty Blaine and Virginia Krick. What is this racket we hear down the street? It's Dane Iseman, beating on the tom-toms, draw- ing people to the magnificent art auction sale of some of the masterpieces painted by William Adams, Kenneth Sexton, and Lowell Cherry. Keep it under your hat,-these are being sold to pay the artist's room rent to that hard-hearted land- lady Alice Hedges, whose place is noted for the food turned out by the chief cook and bottle-wash- er, Reba Morgan. John A. Smith has recently founded his own school, Smith's School for Superior Students. After his many years of experience here at Mc- Clain, we feel he is well qualified to have a school of his own. Among his excellent faculty members is Edwin Smith, teaching Industrial Arts. Mona Post, recently a secretary to Mr. Booher, has ac- cepted the new post of Stenographic teacher. An innovation is the Charm Class supervised by Dorothy Grim. Helen Hudson, formerly a politi- cian, is now the History teacher Qa slightly more secure positionj in Mr. Smith's academy. Robert Payne's cornstalk quintette, with William Loggans and Alice Steward doing the romantic crooning, is found in Mark Strider's hamburger emporium. We notice that the Greenfield Daily Times has been supplanted by a much larger and finer news- paper, the Greenfield Sunflower, with Emmoline Jamra as editor-in-chief and Margene Keener as society editor. It is rumored that Jack Kerr put up the money for this fine publication. We figure he made his money by betting on the horses that Lewis Grice, our number one jockey, did not ride. The premiere advertising agency, handling some of the largest advertising accounts, has as its man- ager our great business man, Edward Beatty. We find Johnny Miller posing for the sink 'em bath- ing suit company's account. Those big shoulders seem to appeal to the women. We might let you is on a secret, girls. James Daniels is now posing for the Combs Clothing Company in New York, the founder, as you might have guessed, is Russell Combs. The Government has established a new Bureau of Agriculture. The Secretary of Agriculture is none other than Kenneth Crago, who tries out all his new-fangled ideas on the farm of his brother Paul Crago. At last report, the farm was S100,000 in the red. Straying out Humboldt way, going to the Big Shot Night Club and DeLuxe Eat Joint, run by Vernon Bailey, we find the featured entertainer is Jessie Hibbs, the yodeling queen. The band there is Red Kisling's Little Kisses, with Willie Konnecker's trtunpet wowing the audience on the hot numbers, and that sentimental trombone being pumped by the great lover, George Fox. Continuing in the musical line, 1940's contribu- tion to the concert stage is Virginia Driver and her sophisticated piano, and at the other extreme Mil- dred Losey's swing singing, especially her rendition of that old favorite, Teacher's Pet. From our class comes the professional skater, Glaup Mary Lou Boden, who is accompanied by her part- ner, Edward Hull. At present they are making a tour of the United States, hoping to get into the movies in the near future. Edna Jones and Louella Pleasant are still at their shorthand competition, and both have applied for the Stenographic position at McClain. Evidently Miss Gander has acquired another name or a better position, we wonder which. On Fifth Avenue, New York, we find a dress shop known as Kay's, which is being managed by that expert seamstress, Helen Louise Gray. We hear that Sarah Sharp is her main model, with Jean Kisling and Helen Schiller as their best customers. Evidently we have a few girls who married into money. Based on her business training at McClain, Roseann Wilson has acquired the position of head manager at Bliss Business College. Her personal secretary is none other than Garnet Coleman, who also was in the business classes back in 1940. Jeanne Clayton, who always had a word for the young children at school, is located at Washington C. H. as supervisor of the Fayette County Children's Home. Another classmate who liked youngsters is Mary Fisher, now teaching kindergarten at Georgetown. Oakie Jones has reached her goal, and is now head nurse at Christ Hospital in Cincinnati. Among her pupils is one of her own classmates, Helen Roambaugh. We find Jean Snodgrass established at Seven Caves, running a summer resort for the sight- seers. And who else than Jane Smith would be a maid in this hotel! Certainly she should be good after all the training she had, participating in plays while attending high school. As all hotels usually have a handy man for odd jobs, our own ambitious Virgil Browder is holding this position. And now back around home. Twice every week we see a horse and wagon delivery coming from out Leesburg way, and who else would it be than Rachel Kiser delivering her produce of milk, butter, and hen fruit. Based on his baseball training while a Senior, Woodrow Wilson has become the Humboldt Red's No-Hit Pitcher. On the same team with him is Earl Miller as third baseman. The most prominent photographer in Greenfield is Joe Pinkerton, who has followed George Price. Thomas Smith, following in the footsteps of the Smiths, is running for Congress from this district. Mary Alice Yates is manager of a restaurant THE 1940 DRAGON- near the Ohio State Campus, with Doris Grate as waitress. They say all the Greenfield students pat- ronize their Inn. Ernest Ellison, who was always our most in- dustrious classmate, is booked to meet the world's heavyweight champion, Emmitt Gant, next week at Medicine Square Garden at New Martinsburg. Corabelle Price is operating a beauty parlor in the great metropolis of Bainbridge. They say her attractiveness has helped a lot. Located at the Hudson Terraplane Factory at New Petersburg, we find Edward Swayne as chief engnieer. Howard Hamilton is also in this city, where he has taken over the Pearce Grocery Store. Seated at the Mayor's desk at Rainsboro is Harold Foraker, who is presenting a plan to repair the old K of P Hall. For about fifteen years Council has debated building a new one. Our two 1940 June brides were none other than Luberta Roberts and Helen Douglass. Luberta, now Mrs. William Johnson, resides in Washington C. H., where Bill is postmaster. Mr. and Mrs. H. Mossbarger CHe1en Douglass! reside at East Monroe on a dairy fa1'm. Margaret Cooper and Nena Parales, who hit all the high spots of the world, are now fan dancers at Coney Island. Harriett Jennings, the world's greatest math- ematician, is taking the place of an adding machine at the Wilknit Hosiery Company at Greenfield. Lillian Pierce, one of the beautiful glamor girls of the Class of '40, is settled down in peaceful mar- ried life in a suburb of Greenfield, where she makes her fame by winning State prizes for her tasty mince meat. Doris Browder is found on Broadway as a famous actress. She is the understudy for Kath- erine Hepburn, who, by the way, has a new business manager, the dapper William Smith. Jolm Wagner, our esteemed Class President, is certainly using his oratorical ability, which he developed at McClain. He is now found as a super hog breeder, just outside Greenfield. He spends all his waking time lecturing the hogs on clean- liness. If anyone feels hurt by what we have predicted for them, they can go to Mars and have the machine improved on. WALTER H. SKEEN ISABELLE Hopi: DAvm DUNCAN ADELAIDE SKULL, Advisor --THE 1940 DRAGON Glwup Knockm Don't mind the little things that I'm about to say We only mean to say them in a friendly sort of way So don't get mad or don't feel sad-You ought to feel quite gay Honest, Ginny, Margene, and I just wish you a happy Class Day. We think TUT CLYBURN is a good jitter- bug. That's funny, so does he. NENA PARALES is always wondering and worrying about a certain ache. Forget your pains and be peppy. You'll find it is much more at- tractive to you. We've been wondering where WILFRED KON- NECKER gets so much wind. It it from blowing on that horn of yours, Willie? BETTY BLAINE is really sweet but she's just too whiney. Con on, Betty, drop that baby act. We all know, MONA POST, that Gail Mershon from Washington is all right so you needn't tell us all that happens on your dates. LOWELL CHERRY considers himself to be the town's sheik. We have another name for it, Lowell. We thought we'd let ISABELLE HOPE in on a little secret. We know that it takes more than one person to run the journalism department. Maybe you are a second Hitler. The red heads of our class might add to their intelligence if they would stay awake in class. We mean ROBERT KISLING and EDWIN SMITH. The Senior class was warned against Senioritis by Mr. Booher at the first of the year but MARY LOU BODEN just couldn't take the hint. Everyone thinks JOHNNY MILLER is cute. Cute means bowlegged, Johnny. PEGGY COOPER could be well liked if she wasn't so snobbish. Why not take the hint, Peggy? EMILY JANE SCHINNER is planning a June wedding. We said 'iplanningf' The Class of 1940 boasts of one adult member- none other than RACHEL KISER, who is now able to vote-ahem!! -we mean 21! DAVID DUNCAN sure does give a girl a work out on a dance floor-or should we say walk out. There may be exceptions to flirting, CAROLYN DWYER, but we don't think its you. EMMOLINE JAMRA demanded a revote of a matter already decided by the entire Senior class, would you like the knocker rewritten?? JEAN CLAYTON may be president of the Girl Reserves, but it wouldn't be a bad idea to practice what you preach. We wonder why McClain lost to Aquinas in that Saturday afternoon baseball game. Was it because JOHN THOMAS STEWART broke train- ing the night before? What time was it? 5 A. M. Speaking of cradle robbers, DOROTHY GRIM should realize that Bud Uhl is a little young for her. Oh well, Dot, you may be in your second childhood. One never knows, does one? As president of the Senior Class and captain of the baseball team, JOHN WAGNER certainly sets a fine example for his followers. Some say its Senioritis, but we think its conceitedness. WOODROW WILSON, did you know that a certain senior girl is very much interested in you? Yes, Rachel Kiser thinks you are so graceful- especially when you almost fell out of Salesman- ship class. Nuff said. JACK KERR thinks he is a lady killer, but we haven't seen any of the McClain girls dying yet. Well, only Marion Lowden, but then, that's nothing new. DORIS GRATE is pretty quiet around school here, but we heard, accidentally, that she is quite the opposite outside. A little birdie told us, Doris. ELLSWORTH COOKE seems to think he has the brains of the Senior class. We think you have the weight. HAROLD FORAKER always comes in the Senior boys home room after 6th period class. Is it be- cause the girls have shorthand then? We notice you get a cool response. I guess you know where you stand. Every year you'll find a class stick in. This time its GARNET COLEMAN. Don't forget-this is all in fun. To ALICE HEDGES, we suggest that she choose a good color scheme. Red and green are for Christmas, Alice. EDWARD HULL is still so shy around girls, that we wonder if he's still tied to Mama's apron strings. HELEN HUDSON never likes to give help in class but she certainly does expect it. It used to be that HELEN LOUISE GRAY de- pended on Papa when she was in trouble. Now she smooth talksl' her way out. Does everyone fall for that line, Gray? I-Iave you ever noticed how graceful EDWARD BEATTY is? Especially when he swings through study hall and everyone begins to dodge. Why don't you come down to earth, REBA MORGAN? We won't bite. We know RUSSELL COMBS and HOWARD HAMILTON have faults, but they haven't given us a chance to notice them. SARA SHARP surely does believe in Leap Year. In fact, she leaped clear down in the freshman class for an escort to the Leap Year Formal. PAUL CRAGO, another of those country lads, thinks he's just too, too intelligent. Oh well, may heaven help the blind! If only HELEN ROAMBAUGH would disagree with us sometimes and state her own beliefs, may- be we'd know what she is thinking about when she's so quiet. Even though JAKE WAGONER is pretty intelli- gent, he's only another boy from Rainsboro. LILLIAN PIERCE thinks that Meredith Nicely fell for her, but don't think all the men do! We certainly like the way Earle Miller wears his school colors. We mean those pants you wore all winter. Were they purple, or what? BOB MILLER, our basketball captain is really swell. He's got the prettiest curls-now, if he could only cook. 61444 Although LOUELLA PLEASANT makes straight A in shorthand, she certainly failed in school spirit. Listen my children and you shall hear of the midnight ride of-no, not Paul Revere but of GEORGE FOX-the one and only. We mean the night you took Janie Drake to Beverly Hills. Now listen, George, gardenias are mighty pretty but were they still fresh when you got home. I suppose though, that the morning dew refreshed them. Ahem. ALICE STEWARD walks to school with Bill Loggans every morning and talks to him every noon. Ah, sweet romance and all that stuff. WILLIAM AND THOMAS SMITH are just too good and too meek. Someday you're going to wake up and realize the fun you've missed here in good old McClain High. We all like JANE SMITH and Jane happens to like Jane Smith too. What a coincidence. JEAN KISLING will be hearing wedding bells right after graduation. That is, if they don't crack before then. DANE ISEMAN is too bashful but then so is Joy Coler so need we say more. We understand that VIRGINIA DRIVER'S date for the Leap year dance was flooded out. What's the matter, Ginny, won't he swim for you? Now we come to the cradle snatcher of the class, HELEN SCHILLER. We know she just doesn't want to graduate because she won't be able to en- tertain the lower classmen. A little birdie told us that EMMIT GANT has been trying to get a date with a certain Freshman girl all year. Don't give up hope. Since OAKIE JONES has attended so little school, we wonder if she could find her way around in our beloved corridors. Wonder if some of us could get away with it, Oakie? JOE PINKERTON is the little man who is never here at the right time. CORABELLE PRICE is going with Roland Rav- enscraft. What's the matter? Won't Seniors do? JOHN A. SMITH thinks he is the class glamour boy. To us you're just another country lad show- ing off. ROSEANN WILSON, our own little Chatterbox, is continually talking. What would we all do with- out you, Rosie? KENNETH SEXTON, the Einstein of our class, is interested in a certain girl. Careful, Kenny, you may not be so capable of holding a blonde. MILDRED LOSEY wants to be a blues singer. Don't forget that a sweet voice isn't all that is needed, a little personality would do a lot better. As smart aleck of the class, KENNETH CRAGO takes the cake. We hope that after graduation, KATHLEEN TAYLOR, you will act a little more human and be friendly to us. Remember the old saying- You can take the boy out of the country, but you can't take the country out of the boy? That's BILLY ADAMS. EDNA JONES is darn swell. We wonder why the McClain boys don't show more interest. THE 1940 DRAGON--- LEWIS GRICE is always telling the members of his classes what to do, when, and how. It's a good thing we all look over him. LUBERTA ROBERTS is kinda lacking in the school spirit you've heard so much about lately. Well, we all can't be peppy. Now that WALTER SKEEN is graduating this year, we fear that Professor Joe Woodruffs posi- tion is in danger. Both as a tennis coach and chemistry instructor. WILLIAM LOGGANS you should have gone in for tap dancing, you certainly have lots of time to practice. Its a good thing that we, as well as Miss Gander, have good steady nerves. EDWARD SWAYNE is in the Army now, hop- ing that the war doesn't take him to the front. We hope you don't get flat feet from marching from 5 A. M. till noon. We hear you play games in the afternoon. Aren't you kinda tired? We come now to those famous class disturbers, ERNEST ELLISON and BOB PAYNE. Guess you haven't heard that old saying, You should be seen and not heard, boys. You'd think that all the girls would like to go with VERNON BAILEY, including Bessie Bell, especially in that nice looking gray ford. But-. If DORIS BROWDER would wake up and real- ize that she could go with other boys, she would not let a certain boy treat her the way he does. Tut, tut! Incidentally, we heard that JESSIE HIBBS has been followed by a certain under classman all year -or is it a Buzzard? POOR HARRIETT JENNINGS, she's worked so hard in school. It's a shame you wouldn't help us, too. In the class memory book, MARY FISHER stated that she wanted to be a wife. Have you been keeping something from us, Mary? Because MARY ALICE YATES and JEAN SNODGRASS have been so distant to all of us, we cannot tell their faults. Don't think you're perfect though, girls. VIRGIL BROWDER just can't decide what dear old McClain will do when he gradutes. We hear that CHARLIE BAINTER is going in for radio in a big way. He has the loud-speaker equipment! Did you know that Ichabod Crane, the second, is graduating this year? Yes, none other than tall, lanky RALPH HINES! If HELEN DOUGLASS's face looks all care worn-you'll know that it's from worrying. Yes, Poor Helen was so afraid we were going to say something bad about her. You've given us good reason to say-why can't you take it like the rest? A poor sport is never missed! JAMES DANIELS VIRGINIA Kiucx MARGENE KEENER -A ,M MIss RUTH THOMAS--Advisor -iT!-IE 1940 DRAGON Glau fbeqaeei We're gathered together, as you can see, To give to each, his own degree. An M. A. or Ph. D. I fear, You really needn't expect to hear, But after many a consultation, Based entirely on reputation, We give these degrees, to long be cherished And may we for writing them, never perish. TO JOHN A. SMITH who gets uoutl' this year, we bestow J. A. S. Just Another Smith. Since GEORGE FOX seems to be doubly in- terested in Junior girls, we give him the degree of J. G. D. Junior Girls Delight, which can also be Jane's, George Darling. JANE SMITH overwhelmingly wins M. J. D. McClain's Joan Davis. To Thelma-1's KENNETH SEXTON, we say J. A. M. A. Just Another Married Artist.-Nuff said. B. K. O. K. goes to VIRGINIA DRIVER for, Bill's Kitten on the Keys. Since WOODROW WILLSON hunts most of his life away, we confer on him the degree B. B. A. W. Bringem Back Alive Wilson. NENA PARALES has a way of getting money from anyone, just ask any Girl Reserve, so we give her M. A. Morgenthau's Assistant. All during her high school career SARA SHARP has been hailed as McClain's Katherine Cornell, so she deserves S. L. A. Sharp Little Actress. When are the movie scouts coming Sara? CAROLYN DWYER seems to be always more than willing to help other people, so we have only one degree for her and that is just O. K. To HELEN HUDSON we give M. E. -Null said. It has been whispered to us that JOE PINKER- TON has finally gone out with the girls, so his degree will be R. A. L.-Roped At Last. They tell us that CHARLES BAINTER never gets enough to eat. He is a senior now, so his has to be M. T. F. M.-More Time For Meals. LOWELL CHERRY spends a lot of his time in Columbus and earns C. S. City Slicker. GARNET COLEMAN is studying to be a Sten- ographer so she rates B. S.-Blushing Secretary. To JAMES DANIELS with best wishes for his success if he should enter the movies. His shall be T. I.-Taylor's Image,--some think! HELEN SCHILLER has brown locks that are envied by all, we therefore give her Z. A.-Zoto's Ad. To PAUL CRAGO who has been very successful winning prizes in Agriculture, we give the degree of P. W.-Prize Winner. We have never heard of DAVID DUNCAN to shirk a task, therefore he gets D. H. D.-Does His Duty. MARY ALICE YATES seems to stagnate until Art Classes where she can see Ralph Stewart, so we hastily bestow on her L. F. A.-Lives For Art. L. L. N.-Long, Lean and Noisy, goes to no one else, by no one else than RALPH HINES. WILLIAM ADAMS rightly deserves the degree M. B. S.-Most Bashful Senior. ISABELLE HOPE rightly earns B. B. -Blackie's Baby. To a boy who is almost equal with his instruc- tors. So we give this degree to EDWARD HULL and we hope he will appreciate it-P. I. A.-Pro- fessor of Industrial Arts. JEANNE CLAYTON's name isn't Polly but we know that at least some day she hopes to be a Parrott's Polly, so we say to her. C. O. E.-Carry on Ed'de. We understand that KENNETH CRAGO is tak- ing Agriculture. The degrees most likely for him are B. B. H.-Bigger and Better Hogs. MARY FISHER and DORIS GRATE have what most of us girls around here want but sometimes lack. S. D. - Swell Disposition. To our redheaded pedagogue WALTER HAL- LAM BUD SKEEN, we give the degree I.- Nutf Said. J. A. W. G. fits LILLIAN PIERCE to a T, in casci you are wondering it is Just Another Wise Gir . N. H. News Hound, goes to EMMOLINE JAMRA, the girl who makes news out of love scenes, teachers falling off chairs, and other local color happenings. To EMILY JANE SHINNER, who will soon be hearing wedding bells and be a King's Queen we give L. E. H.-Lee's Efficient Helper-We hope. MARGENE KEENER always wants to be out in front when there is something to do done, but when she is, it is always done right, so to her we give B. K.-Boss Keener, maybe you will even own a Kroger store someday, Moody. To RACHEL KISER who hails from them thar hills of West Virginia, we give D. W. V. Debutant of West Virginia, Ahem, Ahem. DOROTHY GRIM loves Uhl's flowers and at the same time she loves to rob the cradle so she deserves, C. C. R. Class Cradle Robber. HELEN DOUGLASS is just nuts over ham- burgers, pardon us we mean Mossbargers, anyway we bestow on her H. L. H. Herman's Little Helen. MARY LOU BODEN is going to be seen fre- quently around the Miami campus next year and we hope you Riley make good, Mary Lou and always remember, D. L. L. Don's Latin Lover. We have all seen the sign Watch The Fords Go By, but LOUELLA PLEASANT will have nothing but a Rolls Royce, or is it Paul? We give her P. L. S.-Paul's Laughing Sis. THE 1940 DRAGON-l Glau fbeqaeu We don't know how MILDRED LOSEY vamped the Hillsboro faculty member, but we give her C. H. S. Class Hip Swinger. Nulf said. To EDNA DEHL JONES we give the degree B. C. D. Blond Class Delilah. Sorry folks but we couldn't find her Samson. To CORABELLE PRICE we bestow H. C. R., Helps Court Ravenscraft.

To DORIS BROWDER goes K. T. Q. King Tutis Queen. Nuff Said. To WILLIAM BILLY SMITH that K'big boy who hails from the big city about 10 miles west of Greenfield, we give L. I. Leesburg Ike. ALICE HEDGES deserves the well known de- gree H. D. Q. Hot Dog Queen. JEAN KISLING ault to be happy about that ring she is wearing, so we give her P. P. Pete's Pardner. ROSEANN WILSON is just swell to everyone, so she deserves E. S. Everybody's Sweetheart. A big C. W. Corridor wonderer, goes to HAR- OLD FORAKER. To EDWIN SMITH who is a devoted reader of airplane stories, we give A. F. Aviation Fiend. JAKE WAGONER better known as Rev came up from Rainsboro to make good, we give him, F. O. B. Full of Business. For his cheerful smile we bestow upon EMMIT GANT J. F. Jolly Fellow. LEWIS GRICE collects the degree, G. J. Good Joke, Ahem. HOWARD HAMILTON and EDWARD SWAYNE receive B. I. Bright Ideas, sometimes we wonder boys. DANE ISEMAN, who has appeared before many audiences without being uhissedi' gets the degree, O. S. C. O. One Successful Class Orator. You have heard of Hector the garbage collector, and Joe the umbrella man, but we have the pleasure to present that devastating French shark, WIL- FRED RUDOLPH KONNECKER as W. T. A. M. Willie the Accordian Man. VIRGIL BROWDER who usually goes where he wants at the expense of some kind driver we give K. H. H.-King of Hitch Hikers. From a good source we heard that RUSSEL COMBS once lost his head and has never been able to find it. His degrees shall be A. M.- Absent Minded. To McClain's St. Louis woman, VIRGINIA KRICK who can't make up her mind who she wants or else canit get what she wants we give C. G.- Changeable Gin. To our shoe shining woman killer-President JOHN CLYBURN WAGNER we give the degree T. Y. J. which means Thank You Johnny for your careful guidance and example through our Junior and Senior years. To LUBERTA PETE ROBERTS who loves Johnson's Candies we give M. B.-My Bill. ROBERT KISLING is the only boy we know that can beat the girls at talking. We give the degree C. T.-Champion Talker. MONA POST usually is very early-in the morning getting in- maybe she is just M. S.- Moon Struck. MARGARET PEGGY COOPER earns S. S.-- Sabina Sweetheart. In honor of CARL CLYBURN's constitution and inichy swing steps we toss him S. B.-Swing a y. REBA MORGAN has been helping in the Caf- eteria for a long time so we give her S. W. S- Service With a Smile. We are hoping that J. T. STEWART will soon grow up, so we are giving him these degrees S. F. S.-Small Fry Stewart. The degree team W. W. W.-We Won't Work, is composed of the following: EARL MILLER, JACK KERR, EARNEST ELLISON, ROBERT PAYNE. With close observation through out the year, we find it convenient to say, that they have lived up to their club, W. W. W., their motto, We Wait Willingly. VERNON BAILEY takes the following degrees, whiclgi are self-interpreting, S. N. H.-Seen Not Hear . We never thought that EDWARD BEATTY was cold-blooded, but from a senior girl who has good authority we have it that he is F. A. H.- Frosty At Heart. h On account of ELLSWORTH COOK'S bachelor- xer ways and seeming immunity from the lesser sex, he merits L. S.-Lone Star. Last but not least, we give MISS ROSE WHIN- ERY who is graduating with us this year the degree B. J. B.-Blushing June Bride. And now, Good-bye with a wish most bonnie, From Robert, Helen Louise, and Johnny. JOHN MILLER ROBERT MILLER HELEN GRAY A.

To MARY LOU BODEN we give one of the announcements Mr. Booher sent around about seniors not getting senioritis -just in case she hasn't read it. We give this pair of plain colored pants to EARL MILLER. They may not fit, but we think it's a pretty good idea. This man goes to LOWELLA PLEASANT-its only a doll -but now we can see who you're talk- ing about for a change. We think VIRGINIA KRICK deserves this book on How to Hold Your Man since she hasn't done so good along that line so far. To LILLIAN PIERCE we give these two little men-one is Austin-one is Junior. Now you have them both in case you change your mind again, Lillian. To REBA MORGAN goes these scissors so she can cut herself loose from her Mother's apron strings. We thought HELEN HUDSON might enjoy a picture of Wayne Fultz so she could look at him just any time. These bricks go to LOWELL CHERRY and RALPH I-IINES. We're not going to throw them at you boys-but just put them on your heads and stop growing. We think WILFRED KONNEKER needs this spelling book-we hate to see you get low grades just because you can't spell. To EDNA JONES we give this comb -may your hair always look as nice as it does now, Edna. This bottle of iodine goes to OAKIE JONES as the first step in her nursing career. We give two Wide mouthed bottles to EDWARD BEATTY-now give back a few of those you borrowed in Chemistry-on request of David and Wilfred. This maids cap goes to JANE SMITH to remind her of all the maids she portrayed in plays. This Harp goes to VIRGINIA DRIVER as a little reminder of Bill in case we have another flood. This little car goes to JOHNNIE MILLER for his very own. That's all he needed girls, so watch his smoke. This box of pills we give to ROSEANN WILSON to take every time she feels her temper rising. Will they help, Roseann? We think it fitting to give this light bulb to HARRIETT JENNINGS-in case those she's used these past four years to study by are all burned out. We give these weighted shoes to MARGENE KEENER. Put them on, Margene, and quit flitting around. To NENA PARALES we give this date book. Keep track of them now, Nena, and don't have two engagements for the same night again. MONA POST seems to have trouble understand- ing those queer creatures -the men. So to her we give this book called The Ways of Men. To WILLIAM LOGGANS we give this shoe- and the mate goes-yes, to ALICE STEWARD. You can always hear RACHEL KISER whether you can see her or not because of the jewelry with which she weights herself down. We don't know where you'll put it, Rachel, but here's some more. To ROBERT MILLER we give these bobby pins to keep those curls out of his eyes. But just the same, the girls still think they are pretty! This box of thumb tacks goes to ROBERT KISLING. Too bad school is out, Bob, you won't have any one to set them for. This tube of lipstick we give to GARNET COLE- MAN. Girls do wear it now-a-days, Garnet, why don't you try it? To JAMES DANIELS we give this electric fence - to keep off the women. Just let the battery run down, Jimmie, 'cause no one will touch it any- way! To BETTY BLAINE we give this set of false teeth-now you can laugh without covering up your mouth, grandma. We give this bottle of wave set to Sara Sharp. You can control that hair now, Sara. A bottle of glue, we think, is an appropriate gift for WALTER SKEEN so he can get stuck on some one else for a change! To HELEN LOUISE GRAY we give this hook and sinker, since she already has the line. To HELEN ROAMBAUGH, MARY FISHER, DORIS GRATE, CORABELL PRICE and KATH- THE 1940 DRAGON Glau 04251 LEEN TAYLOR, these bottles of Zip -Drink it girls and pep up a little. We thought HELEN SCHILLER would like an extra year of school, so she could be near her junior boyfriend, Gene Caplinger, so here it is Helen. This dill pickle goes to ALICE HEDGES-as a reminder of Striders. This box of powder goes to-no, not a girl, but JOE PINKERTON, to cover up his blushes. To DANE ISEMAN we give this little drum- you might use it to keep yourself awake when you're with Joy, Dane. To DORIS BROWDER we give this medal for having the sweetest disposition in the class. Hang on to it, Doris, it means a lot. We give PEGGY COOPER this box of stationery, for hers must surely be gone after all those letters she wrote in History class. We think its about time EDWIN SMITH has a new motorcycle. So here it is, Edwin, now ride to your hearts content. To CARL CLYBURN we give a book of the latest dance steps -there might be a few you don't know, Tut. There always are meek, quiet souls in a class, and since we never hear a sound from him, we give LEWIS GRICE this megaphone. JACK KERR is always ready to argue, so we give him this little man who can't talk back. Now go to it, Jack. To DAVID DUNCAN we give this booklet How to Dance in 10 Easy Lessons and there's no down payment, David. To our able president, JOHN WAGNER, it gives us great pleasure to bestow upon him this huge C in deportment, since no one else thought of it and he has received straight A's all year. We can't understand how you were overlooked, John. To JOHN THOMAS STEWART, the small mem- ber of the senior class with the squeaky voice, we give this bottle of 3 in 1 oil. To the card playing shark of the Class, HAROLD FORAKER we give these four aces, which we hope will come in handy in one of those big games at Rainsboro. To WOODROW straight cut WILSON we give these shears, so he'l1 be all ready to help his dad. To EMMITT GANT we give these twin girls- to remind him of his intense liking of twins in Washington C. H. as well as Greenfield. For the farming quintet of our class, JAKE WAGONER, ELSWORTH COOK, HOWARD HAM- ILTON, and PAUL and KENNETH CRAGO, we give these farm magazines. Now all you need is a farm, boys. To the five matrimonial minded misses, ISABEL HOPE, EMILY SHINNER, LUBERTA ROBERTS, JEAN KISLING, and MARY ALICE YATES, We give these rolling pins, which, we hear, are useful after the I do's are said. To the boy who really has rhythm in the senior class, ROBERT PAYNE we give this song sheet so he may know the words too. We think VIRGIL BROWDER deserves this little car, since he hitch-hiked to school from Washing- ton C. H. every day. If there was a little less of JEAN SNODGRASS we might not have her, so we suggest this bottle of cod-liver oil taken twice daily, Jean. To ERNEST ELLISON we give this funnel, as a little reminder. 'Nuif said! To the quietest person in our class we give this bell to hang around his neck. Make a little noise now, EDWARD SWAYNE. JESSIE HIBBS and DOROTHY GRIM pick 'em young, so we give them these rattles to remind them of certain sophomore lads. To four shy members of the senior class, ED- WARD HULL, THOMAS SMITH, WILLIAM SMITH and RUSSEL COMBS, we present these certificates to the Bachelor's club. Going to keep them, boys? We give WILLIAM ADAMS this package of dates, because we think he deserves them. Better learn how to take them pretty soon, Billy. Since we never hear Charlie Bainter, we give him this gag-just to be sure! So that JOHN A. SMITH won't forget his long drawn out career in high school, we present him with this picture of McClain. This little booklet entitled 1001 Rules for Hen- peeked Husbands we give to KENNETH SEXTON. It might come in handy later, Kenneth. We give this rope to MILDRED LOSEY. Now you can control that swing, Mildred. To VERNON BAILEY we give this bottle of Jones' milk. You like it, don't you Vernon? Since CAROLYN DWYER is rather slow to catch on, we give her this greased pole. Practice up, Carolyn. To EMMOLINE JAMRA we give the last word because that always pleases Emmoline. HELEN DoUGLAss GEoRcE Fox JEANNE CLAYTON J. W. GRIESHEIMER, Advisor l-THE 1940 DRAGON Glafu We the Class of 1940, of the city of Greenfield, Ohio, being of sound mind and memory, do make, publish and declare on this twentieth day of May in the year of our Lord, nineteen hundred and forty, this, our last will and testament, in the man- ner of form that follows: First: to the JUNIORS we will them the right to TRY and measure up to the standards that we Seniors have set-if they can. Second: To the SOPHOMORE CLASS we be- queath our good nature, our conduct and superior knowledge of all subjects. Third: to the FRESHIES we will the unsurpass- ed record of having no deportment cuts and no reprimands. Last: to the FACULTY we will the loss of the best class ever to graduate from dear old McClain. WILLIAM ADAMS has invented many ways to torment Miss Shull in third period History class, so he therefore presents this highly specialized ability to James Hixon. VERNON BESSIE BAILEY and EMMIT GANT, who are such good pals that they have to write notes to each other every single day, will their inseparate ways to Orvill Karnes and Eugene Lawson. Since CHARLIE BAINTER loves to eat so well, he leaves his craving for food to Bobby Krick. EDWARD BEATTY wills his slogan of Every man for himself during quizzes, to Jean Kilpatrick. MARY LOU BODEN wills her senioritis complex to Garnett Frye. DORIS BROWDER wills her nice quiet per- sonality to Margaret Winfough.

MARGARET COOPER wills her complex of 'Tm aight and you're wrong to Elizabeth Ann Tod- unter. KENNETH and PAUL CRAGO will their shy- ness around the girls to Paul and James Orr. Wd! JIM DANIELS, that tall-dark and handsome boy, seems to be overly fond of certain types of blondes therefore he wills this unsurpassed ability and his good looks to Charles Limes. Since HELEN DOUGLASS likes to eat candy so well during classes, she thinks she should will this bad or should we say good habit to Jane Drake. DAVID DUNCAN wills his ability to be all over the dance floor at once and all over every one else's feet to Billy Collins. VIRGINIA DRIVER, one of McClain's best known pianists wills her talent to Dorothy Lee Copeland. Being that CAROLYN DWYER has to have everything explained to her, we think she should will this weakness to Charlene Johnson. ERNEST ELLISON who holds the title of being the laziest boy in school leaves this to Robert Jud- kins. Mary Fisher wills her exclusiveness to Irene Ruddle in hopes it will quiet her down a bit. HAROLD FORAKER wills the right to keep the Rainsboro girls entertained while going to and from school to Clyde Barrett. GEORGE FOX wills a little bit of his tennis ability to Hayward Riley.

Here's your chance girls! EDWARD HULL, the Thomas Edison of Mc- Clain, leaves his tinkering around to Leroy Swayne. EMMOLINE JAMRA must always have the last word in every discussion, this she wills to Kathryn Cochran. Glwu HARRIETT JENNINGS wills her A's in deport- ment to anyone who can be that good. EDNA JONES wills her beautiful blonde hair to Betty Bradshaw. OAKIE JONES wills her ability to stay out of school all the time and get away with it to Marian Mershon. MARGENE KEENER leaves her excess amount of energy and mischievous ways to Edith Smiley in hopes that she might take a hint and liven up a bit. JACK KERR wills his slow motion to Paul Lyons which will practically bring Paul to a stand- still. To the steadies of the Jr. Class, JEAN KIS- LING and MARY ALICE YATES will their methods of rating engagement rings. ROBERT KISLING leaves that self-styled hair- cut to Jimmy McCullough. Since WILFRED KONNECKER and JOHNNIE MILLER have just recently come out of their shell and began to take an interest in the girls and such, they think they should will these qualities to Martin Pollard and Jack Monk Wilkins. VIRGINIA KRICK wills her kiddish giggle to Janet Sparger. WILLIAM LOGGANS wills the right to be surrounded at noon to Booker Bass.

Nena Parales, the Girl Reserve high-powered treasurer, wills her ability to collect debts from students and make them like it to Lulu Parales. ROBERT PAYNE is so good in athletics and in pushing a broom around the halls, it is no more than right that he should give these labor qualities to Winston Morgan. LILLIAN PIERCE leaves her good nature and smiling ways to Kay Borden. We think you can use them Kay. JOE PINKERTON wills his bachelor ways to Tommy Miller. LOWELLA PLEASANT wills her superior fat least she thinks sol knowledge of shorthand to anyone being dumb enough to accept it. CORABELLE PRICE, the cradle robber of our class, was a little late in getting Rolland Ravens- craft hooked, but now that she has she wills to Betty Smith the right to carry on. HELEN ROAMBAUGH wills her ability to study in Chemistry class to Gwenaline Ward. LUBERTA ROBERTS wills her pretty brown hair and her way of always helping the other fel- low to Dolores Garman. KENNETH SEXTON holds the title of McClain's most faithful steady so we think it rather fitting that he give this high honor to Herschel Riley. THE 1940 DRAGON--l-- Wd! HELEN SCHILLER leaves her sister Betty the right to take care of Gene Caplinger next year. EMILY SCHINNER wills her graceful walk to Dorothy Barrett. SARA SHARP, our talented actress who cannot seem to forget that she isn't always on the stage wills her sophisticated actions to Hazel Mae Click- ner. We have another name for it Sara.

JAKE WAGONER has chosen the ministry as his vocation, this he believes should be left to Bobby Wahl. ROSEANN WILSON, the rosebud of our class. wills her sweet disposition to Marion Lowden. Why not take advantage of this Marion. Since WOODROW WILSON can cut hair with the best of them, he has decided to leave this ability to his brother Billy. It seems appropriate for RACHEL KISER to will that indescrible twist to Edith Kennedy. It's all over now, so please don't be hurt If we willed you the name of being a snob or a flirt We really didn't mean it in just that way But after all you know this is class day. DANE ISEMAN MONA Posr BETTY BLAINE Miss RosE WHINEHY, Advisor l-THE 1940 DRAGON Glau One-half score and three years ago a delegation of the cutest and most intelligent children that ever existed Cso our parents thoughtj entered kinder- garten as a preliminary to the educational ladder yet to climb. Beginning our great adventure in 1928 one hun- dred and fifty-one were enrolled in first grade and we began our education by learning the funda- mentals of reading, writing and 'rithmetic. During the first year five of us took part in a Christmas pageant The Best of All. Heralds were George Fox, Dane Iseman, Fairies were Roseann Wilson, Helen Louise Gray and Dancer Mary Lou Boden. During our second year while we were further- ing our education the Blue Ribbon Health project was begun. The next four years were quickly spent by presenting occasional plays, winning awards, and participation in sports. Then we began crossing the bridge from our elementary education and our high school career when one hundred thirty-eight entered seventh grade in 1934. On March 19, 1935 the class lost one of its members, Betty Jean Davis. Betty's happy pres- ence was missed by everyone. In the eighth year of our education we selected the following assembly officers: president, James Daniels, first vice-president, Malcom Flowers, sec- ond vice-president, Carolyn Dwyer, secretary- treasurer, Helen Louise Gray, and Flag Guardians, Mary Lou Boden and Dane Iseman. John Wagner captained the School Boy Patrol. As we started on the last lap of our journey, with new members from New Petersburg and Rainsboro our class numbered one hundred and fourteen when we entered our freshman year in 1936. Class officers were James Daniels, president, Betty Blaine, vice-president, Isabelle Hope, secre- tary, Margene Keener, treasurer, and Dean Brook- over, student senate representative. Those active in sports included Dawson Hutch- inson in football, Robert Miller and Elmo Purdin in basketball, and Robert Miller in baseball. John Thomas Stewart, John Wagner, James Daniels, Dawson Hutchinson, Walter Skeen and Lewis Grice were in the chorus of the M minstrel presented that year. Isabelle Hope was privileged to wear a scholar- ship M pin. We then passed into our sophomore year and were able to look back at the green freshmen. Roseann Wilson was elected president of our class with James Daniels as vice-president, John Thomas Stewart as secretary, Virginia Krick as treasurer, and James Daniels and Isabelle Hope student senate representatives. The athletes of the class were Dawson Hutchin- son and Robert Miller in football, Robert Miller in basketball, John Thomas Stewart, John Wagner, Robert Miller in baseball, and Charles Bainter serv- ed as manager. The tennis team was organized this year with Dane Iseman, George Fox, Walter Skeen and John Miller from our class participating. We then traveled into our junior year and be- gan a round of activities and studies. John Wagner served as president of our class for the next two years with James Daniels as vice-president, and George Fox as secretary-treasurer. Jeanne Clayton, John Thomas Stewart and David Duncan were student senate representatives. On November 18 the juniors presented Here Comes Charlie in auditorium. Those taking part were Jane Smith, Walter Skeen, James Daniels, Mary Lou Boden, John Wagner, Jeanne Clayton, David Duncan, Helen Louise Grav, Sara Sharp, and John Thomas Stewart. The football team brought honor to the school this year by being the first unbeaten, untied squad to have played for McClain. Dawson Hutchinson was a member of this team. Others active in sports of basketball, baseball, or tennis were John Wagner, John Thomas Stewart, Robert Miller, Harold Foraker, Dane Iseman, Walter Skeen, and George Fox. Isabelle Hope wore the scholarship M pin. Walter Skeen and David Duncan were end men in the minstrel presented this year and Charles Bainter, James Daniels, Ernest Elilson, Lewis Grice, Edward Beatty, Dane Iseman, Kenneth Sexton, Lowell Cherry, Wilfred Konneker, Carl Clyburn, Dawson Hutchinson, and Jack Kerr were in the chorus. THE 1940 DRAGON - Glau Sixteen members of our class were in the Journalism department and published the Dragon second semester. On May 12 we entertained the seniors with a World's Fair banquet and dance. Then in September of the following year we began the climax of our great adventure-our senior year. Class officers were the same except student senators who were Dane Iseman, Helen Louise Gray, Robert Miller, Carolyn Dwyer, David Duncan, and John Thomas Stewart. Education our stepping stoneg success our goal was chosen as class motto, royal blue and white as colors, and sweet pea as flower. James Daniels served as interlocutor of the minstrel presented March 14 and Lewis Grice and Lowell Cherry were men of the circle. Confucious was portrayed by Walter Skeen. Edward Beatty, Paul Crago, Howard Hamilton, Joseph Pinkerton, William Smith, Edward Swayne, and John Wagner were members of the chorus and George Fox, Edward Hull, Dane Iseman, John Wagner, Wil- fred Konneker and John Thomas Stewart were in the orchestra. The basketball team enjoyed a very successful year winning every game but one, won the South Central League championship and were district runners-up at the Athens Tournament. Members of our class on this team were Robert Miller and John Wagner. Robert Miller was named to the All Ohio team. Those taking an active part in football were Jack Kerr, Robert Payne, Earl Miller, and James Daniels, in baseball, John Wagner, Earl Miller, Robert Miller and John Thomas Stewart, in tennis, John Miller, George Fox, Dane Iseman, and Walter Skeen. A McClain Thespian Troupe 400 entered a one- act play, The Happy Journey in the Second Annual Thespian Drama Festival at Athens where they received a rating of good thus enabling them to compete in Cleveland, where, with a rating of good they were invited to participate in the National Festival to be held in Bloomington, Illi- nois. Senior members of this cast were Sara Sharp, Helen Louise Gray and Jeanne Clayton. The Girl's Glee Club and Triple Trio were entered in district competition at Miami where each was honored with a rating of superior. They were therefore privileged to enter state competition where they received a good rating. May 10 we were given a banquet and dance by the juniors. Thursday May 16 began a round of activities when the senior class play, Three Days of Gracie was presented in the auditorium. The cast was composed of the following: Sara Sharp, Jeanne Clayton, Mary Lou Boden, Carolyn Dwyer, Jane Smith, James Daniels, Lewis Grice, John Wagner, Lillian Pierce, Betty Blaine, Isabelle Hope, Wilfred Konneker, John Thomas Stewart, and Jack Kerr. Dr. Ross Wilhide was speaker at Baccalaureate held in the auditorium May 19. We gathered together as a class on May 20 for Class Day to hear the opinions of our classmates, our shortcomings and our praises, which we earned for ourselves during high school. May 22 we were entertained by the faculty at breakfast. Then on May 23, eighty-five of us will be eli- gible to receive that long-wished for prize-a diploma. Dr. Upham president of Miami will be speaker at Commencement Exercises. Then as a conclusion to graduation activities on May 24 we will become members of that well-known body, the alumnus of McClain High School. And now after twelve long years of labored journey towards our goal, graduation, we have reached our destination and we are justly proud of ourselves for having done such. Thus our adventures as a class are over and now each will begin an adventure of his own. So, with due respect to all persons who have helped us to gain a Funda- mental Education, we proudly enter the world of real life with only a primary knowledge of what we are about to enter but with a forward and ever- learning spirit. MARY Lou BODEN EDWARD BEATTY WILLIAM ADAMS Miss HAZEL GANDER, Teacher THE 1940 DRAGON eldfid poem of 7940 Listen, America, you shall hear Of the graduating class this year From primary classes in '28, On through our schooling, early and late, We've labored for this day and year. It hasn't been easy, as stories may tell, We all know of tests and of grade cards that fell, And into the midst of an hour of ease, Reminders of problems to work would displease. How slowly we answered the warning bell. But McClain, you shall linger in all of our thoughts, And the things we'll remember are joys you have brought, Of games and of dances, whatever we chose, Our many good times would take long to disclose, And also the hard-earned knowledge we sought. Whether we strive to win fame and success, Or whether We only seek happiness, We all shall live better, more fruitful lives In the pleasure and culture that each derives From the training weive gathered in M.
