We have memories, both happy and sad, of these days spent togethe1'. To keep these memories, now so dear to us, We are recording them on the pages of the Dynamo so they may never pass into oblivion. We can feel justly proud of our efforts as We believe it is the only Annual issued this year in the county outside of the one at Napoleon. We hope this Annual will be a treasured souvenir to all who are inter- ested in lVIcClure High and that, as the years glide by, it will bring to you memories of happy school days. THE ANNUAL STAFF. Dedication We gratefully dedicate this publication to our Mothers and Fathers as a token of our thanks for their many sacrifices which enabled us to enjoy a High School education. And as our last lessons are recited to the Master, may the accomplish- ments of our lives prove these sacrifices were not made in vain. CLASS OF '29. iv.: XRS'-K lxxixxl ,X....,. - -A ...... ., lxxxlk - 'lg .J A Brief History of The Damascus Township High School During the summer of 1902, the question of establishing a High School in our community was being considerably agitated. At the time we had nine district schools in Damascus Township and our School Board was composed of nine members, one from each sub-district. When the question was brought up before the Board for a decision, one member was absent. The members present voted four yeas and four nays. It being a tie, the Township Clerk had a casting ballot. Mr. William Nelson was holding that office and voted yea. The upper story of the building now occupied by the Gem Theater, was rented, fitted up with seats, desks and blackboards, and Mr. Jacob Love was hired to teach. Our school had not been graded, so there were no pupils ready to enter High School. Mr. Love conducted an entrance examination for the pupils who felt themselves qualified to enter High School. More than thirty boys and girls passed the entrance examination and a Third Grade High School was established. A few of the pupils were entered as Sophomores and the remaining as Freshmen. The next Fall Mr. Raymond Meade came on the scene as teacher. Those who had taken second year work passed the Teachers' Examination and Went out as teachers. It was not until Mr. Meade's second year as instructor, the year 1904-1905, that we had a Graduating Class. The members of this first class were Bessie Mildred Crawford, Aura Lazenby, John B. Love and Lester Allen McClure. John Love's death occurred in March, leaving but three to graduate in May. The south wing of the old frame structure at the south edge of town had been completed during the summer of 1904 and the High School moved to the upper story of the addition. Thru the efforts of a student organization known as The Crescent Literary Society, an organ was purchased and a few books for a library were added to the equip- ment of the High School. During the school year of 1904-05 our first Lyceum Lecture Course was given. In the Fall of 1905, J. A. Feik took the helm as Superintendent and thru his efforts the township schools were graded and entrance examinations were no longer necessary. We also began to speak of our second and third year classes as Juniors and Seniors. Mr. Feik was Superintend- ent for two years. O. C. Ault and John A. Wright were Superin- tendents one year each. W. T. Hatcher was the next Superintendent and during his supervision another teacher was employed and our High School was classed as Second Grade, and two years later in 1914 and while Mr. Hatcher was still with us another teacher was added to the faculty and the School was made First Grade. Our graduates were now able to enter College , from our High School upon taking the usual Col- lege entrance examinations. Our library had outgrown its soap-box bookcase and laboratory equipment had been purchased. In 1915 our present brick building was erected at a cost of 9535,000, and the School was moved to this location in the same year. Since the completion of the new building, Home Economics, Manual Training and Music have been added, making our school equal in efficiency to any in the county for its size. Our township one-room schools are all closed and the pupils are being transported to McClure by five busses and the school district is known as The Consolidated Damascus Township School District. Basket-ball has been a prominent feature in our school during the last few years .and our teams have stood close to the head of the list in games played with other teams in the county. Superintendents of our schools not mentioned heretofore are M. M. Culver, G. L. Stackhouse, and Mary Philpott. The corps of teachers have been changed many times and the teachers employed have made many lasting friendships among the pupils. J. O. Hage- dorn, Glenn Potter and Cinda Hatcher taught in the High School this year. Many things in our school would seem very unfamiliar to those who were pupils in other days, yet all changes seem to have been made for the betterment of our school system. -JOHN GASTER, '07.

K ' ' ' ' 'w, 'ig-'J-,JT Class Poem I remember when I was a lad, In the country years agog We all looked to High School As an ideal place to go. We looked ahead a thinking, Of the places we'd like to beg Then we thought of the time coming When we'd be out and free. And then our first year started, We were green and backward toog But And Our For The The we all stuck together managed somehow to get through. second year was easier, we had a startg goal was a little near ideal of our heart. We worked right on with might and will, we wanted to set a pace, That would help us to keep abreast In this great industrial race. The third year was about the same, Except our number less, We now have climbed another round In the ladder of success. We now have qualified as SENIORS, We're preparing for the Hnal testg We'll each do what we can this year And do it our very best. Our senior year has been pleasant, Despite the hard labor and painsg For it shows that we've been working And racking our feeble brains. Our school days are over, we fear, For most of the senior class, But what we've gained in these four years Has helped us for life's task. 'Tis a pleasant memory to us, When we look back o'er the yearsg 'Twas nice to have worked together Though at parting, we shed tears. ERNEST DOLL wif Xie. xxixx 9 ....... -. .......

Eleven Twelve Aqbxhbm ,.,..,, - .,,,. . fy,-J-,JT Class History When school opened in September, 1925, there were twenty-two ready to enroll as Freshmen. The Sophomore class was ready to welcome and initiate us into their midst. We elected Alfred Oberdorf as president, War- ren Culbertson, vice president, Kathryn Fiser, secretary and treasurer. We picked purple and white as class colors and hung our pennant on the wall with the rest. The second year we elected our officers with Warren Culbertson as president, Alfred Oberdorf, vice president, Loyd Dennie, secretary and treas- urer. The third year we chose the following officers: Warren Culbertson, president, Ray Gordon, vice presidentg Paul Pope, secretary and treasurer. The J unior-Senior banquet was the main feature of importance along with choosing our class rings. Our last year we chose Ray Gordon, president, Loyd Dennie, vice president, and Frances Van Tassel, secretary and treasurer. We have dwind- led in number each year till now there are four- teen left to graduate. Miss Hatcher is the only teacher to have been with us all four years of High School. Our class has furnished several athletes during the four years: Warren, Ray, Paul, Kelso, Loyd and Claire took part in the boys basket ball teams. Kathryn Fiser, Frances Alspaugh and Frances Van Tassel helping the girls teams. Paul, Warren, Frances A. and Kathryn F. have all taken part in the orchestra, part or full time during the four years. Now graduation is at handy we have been look- ing forward eagerly, but now, when we have reached it, we sort of dread it as it will separate us from the rest of the class. ERNEST DOLL.

It seems Kelso has been something of a poli- tician since leaving High School and has filled various offices. To begin with, he had been Clerk of Damascus 1'ownship. Later he moved to Malinta and was honored by his fellow townsmen by receiving a majority of votes for mayor of this prosperous little village. From this small beginning he was elected to fill offices in Henry County. As his fame for honesty and integrity grew, he was elected to several State offices. I telegraphed my congratulations and imagine my surprise to receive a reply asking me to be- come his campaign manager! The idea seemed somewhat staggering for, of course, Kelso must win or bust, after throwing his hat in the ring, and a great deal of his success depended largely on the selection of his campaign manager. I took stock of my qualifications and, in looking back over my past life, decided my training had been of the right sort to enable me to sell Kelso to the people of our own dear U. S. A. We decided to establish our main office in Columbus and left Kathryn Deilman in charge of a large force of stenographers that were thoroly imbued with the idea of Win or Bust. We decided it was best to travel in a special train and remembered hearing Warren Culbertson had taken a course in railroad engineering and had a run on the D. T. and I., we telegraphed Mr. Ford asking him to release Cub for a few months in order that he might take the position of chief engineer of our special train. This Mr. Ford agreed to do and, in addition, offered the use of a train from his road as his contribution to the campaign fund. We were very grateful for this offer and joyfully accepted, for we were finding our campaign expenses frightfully high. After leaving Columbus on a campaign trip, our first stop was made in Cincinnati. At the Union depot we were very agreeably surprised to hear the thrilling strains of our High School song, Pep , being played by a ladies' band and wondered why they should happen to choose the music of our old school song for one of their selec- tions. The rat-tat-tat of the drum seemed to have such a familiar sound and, upon locating the player, you may well guess our delight in find- ing the drummer to be Francis Alspaugh. Find- ing Bill gave us the happy thought of taking a band with us so we telegraphed our old orchestra leader, Howard Middleton, to select a hundred piece band and meet us the next week in St. Louis. We were delightfully surprised to find Mr. Mid- dleton had selected a number of our former orchestra leaders and players and among them were Frank Sturchio from Findlay, E. E. Hadley, HR. G., Huck, Margie and Bill. We felt confident that Kelso's election was assured for the crowds that met us in St. Louis and listened to our band and to Kelso's speeches seemed to think he was a Washington, Lincoln, McKinley and Wilson combined. At Atlanta, Georgia, Mrs. Richard joined the party and continued the trip with us. Our group seemed complete with Mrs. Richard in the party and we were once again convinced of the truth of the old proverb f 'U that Gentlemen Prefer Blondes-but marry Brunettes , for Mrs. Richard proved to be our class-mate. Laura Wolfe. Laurie's dark beauty was another hunch that Kelso's campaign would be successful for we re- membered reading that every First Lady, with one exception, since the time of Martha Wash- ington, had had dark hair. With Cub at the throttle we campaigned a great many cities and in Denver it was found necessary to send Kelso to a throat specialist. In making inquiries for the best specialist in the city some four or five were recommended but each person we asked seemed to think a Doctor Fiser had the best reputation. Having in mind our class-mate, Fuzzy Fiser, we decided to choose Dr. Fiser because of the similarity of names, never dreaming this Dr. Fiser would prove to be our own Claire Fiser from McClure. Dr. Fiser advised that Mr. Richard remain in the sanitarium for a couple of days for observa- tion and treatment. He ofered the services of his head nurse and said that he, himself, would supervise the treatment. It was finally decided that Dr. Fiser and his nurse should accompany the party for the remainder of the campaign for Mr. Richard's health must be safe-guarded at any cost. We were all anxious to meet the nurse, especially Mrs. Richard, for we all realized that so much of the patient's welfare depends on per- fect sympathy between the nurse and her patient. We were almost speechless with surprise when Dr. Fiser smilingly presented the nurse and proud- ly informed us that she was his newly acquired wife, for this peachy looking little nurse was Frances Van Tassel! We thought Mrs. Richard did not seem as pleased over the situation as Kelso but Van and Fuzzy acted as tho they were still in the third quarter of their honey-moon and we felt there would be no immediate danger of scandal if Van was included in our party. We left the sanitarium with Kelso much im- proved and traveled to California making stops in all the important cities in the West. In Los Angeles we inquired for the best hotel in the city and were directed to the Figueroa. Upon our arrival at the hotel we asked for the manager and introduced ourselves as the Democratic Presiden- tial candidate and party and asked for the best service the hotel afforded. He seemed pleased to have our patronage and told us that he remem- bered hearing the owner of the hotel speak of Mr. Richard as one of his class-mates. We were Fifteen M ,......,,, ,.,.,.A, , ,,X....,. N htwxyl N ' .JD so excited over the prospect of meeting another class-mate and asked that he inform the owner of the hotel that we would like to confer with him. We could scarcely wait to see who it could be and Gosha'mighty it was Loyd Dennie! Were we happy, well I guess! Dennie was tickled pink at seeing so many old friends and insisted on en- tertaining us while in in his city. He surprised us by telling us his chief cook was Irene Peery and she was included in our party during our stay in Los Angeles. Loyd said Irene had the name and the game of being the best caterer in all the Golden West. It seems Loyd is still a bachelor and upon our hinting our surprise that such a handsome man could so long escape matrimony he smiled sadly a.nd intimated that the girl of his dreams back in his old Ohio home had married someone else. We felt mighty sorry for Loyd as he gazed into Van's lovely blue eyes with such a wistful look in his own. The lines of the poet came to my mind: 'Tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all. To entertain us for an afternoon, Loyd invited our whole party to be his guests at a National League base ball game. He said this was the last game of the season for the McClure Merchants and that he had a wonderful surprise for us. We were all on tip-toe to know what it was and Cub remembered having read in the Tri-County News that Paul Pope was the star player on the Mer- chants' team. The cat was out of the bag and we fairly crashed the gates and rushed out on the diamond to see Paul. The newspapers, afterward, carried feature stories of the game saying Pope had played the most spectacular game of the sea- son, and intimated his wonderful playing was due to the inspiration he had received from listening to our band play the melody of his old school song before the game. After the game Dennie threw an all night party for us at his hotel. Since Paul was free to return to Ohio he pur- suaded Irene and Loyd to join our party and finish the campaign with us. We were all pleased with this suggestion and Mrs. Richard and Loyd seemed especially happy over the suggestion. We thought Mrs. Richard looked rather queerly at Kelso and his nurse, and Loyd shot a revengeful glance at Dr. Fiser that sesemed to say: All is fair in love and war. Naturally Kelso and Laura were anxious to re- turn to Columbus and get first hand information from the office as to how the campaign was end- ing. Upon reaching the office Kathryn told us she and her stenographers had been Working day and night taking care of the in-coming and out- going mail and that every one said Kelso would win or bust. This bit of cheerful news made us feel like celebrating and some one suggested that we stage a party at Ray Gordon's and offered the information that Ray and Katheryn Fiser were married and living in Columbus. This was indeed a happy suggestion for this would bring nearly all of our class together. We telephoned Ray our intentions of spending the evening with them and Sixteen 4.x Ray said he and Kathryn would send their son Loren over to our hotel to meet us and bring us out. We were very much surprised at the palatial appearance of their home and was even more pleased over the clever surprise they had planned for us. It seems that Alfred Oberdorf is head of the Agriculture Department at Ohio State. I-Ie made such a good impression on Kelso that Kelso asked him to take a position in his Cabinet. Of course there was an if attached to the offer, yet we were all confident that Kelso would be our next president. My, my, how we did talk that night for every member of our class was there and our happiness seemed complete! Ray and Kathryn are both teaching in Ohio State University and are the highest paid mem- bers on the faculty. Kathryn is head of the Futuristic Art Department and Ray is supervisor of the Disciplinarian Course for prospective teach- ers. Ray said he had gotten most of his ideas from our old High School superintendent, Haggie, and we all groaned despairingly for most of us still have recollections of Haggie's notions of bein' good. Ray said he had visited Mr. Hagedorn just recently to get his latest methods on controlling Young America and had found him in the hills of Kentucky and still go- ing strong. On the wall of his office hung a queer looking paddle that looked strangely familiar, altho it looked much smaller than it did 'way back there in '29. flt might have shrunk with agelj Kathryn seems to have satisfied her craving for Art for she has expensive paintings in her home. Looking somewhat out of place among so many magnificent paintings, hung our class pic- ture, in the place of honor. The picture recalled to mind many of our pranks while in school. Kathryn showed us her favorite painting, and almost hidden in an arbor-vitae hedge that bord- ered the picture of a rural home was the name and date: Hatcher, 1945. The picture had been named Sunrise Farm and we knew it was one of Miss Hatcher's masterpieces. Some one mentioned that we knew of the activities of all our class-mates and teachers with the exception of Mr. Potter, and it was suggested that Ray call Weston over long distance and try to locate him. He was located in his little love nest in Weston and he informed Ray, in his slow and deliberate voice, that he was happily married and that there were several little Potters. We decided to spend the last evening of thd campaign in Henry County and await the returns of the election in the Assembly room of our old High School building in McClure. We sent invi- tations to the Hagedorns, Miss Hatcher and the Potters, and Alfred and Kathryn and Ray and the whole bunch decided to make the trip. It was in- deed The End of a Perfect Day when the first news came over the radio of Kelso's election.

We legally appoint Glenn Potter, Principal, as executor of this document. We, therefore, bequeath to the faculty our for- giveness, without any mental reservations what- soever, their ability to fully appreciate our super- ior mentality. To the High School, as a whole, we bequeath every thing that is securely fastened to the floor. To the Juniors we unwillingly bequeath, as a tangible heritage, our beautifully hand-carved seats. To the Sophomores we bequeath the few mis- takes we have made. To the Freshmen we give our handsome looks, our gracious manners and lovable dispositions. To the in-coming Freshmen we generously be- queath all of our note books, manuals and book reviews. Our individual bequests are as follows: I, Frances Alspaugh, will my advice, How to Grow Thin to Flossie Shepard, hoping she may be benefited by it. I, Kathryn Fiser, do will my ability to speak in public to Mr. Potter. I, Warren Culbertson, will my musical ability to Ralph Huck Conn.

H. S. We were looked upon as the worst class in High School at that time. Our class furnished three basket ball players. The next year five of our members had decided to leave us and our ranks were re- duced to eleven members. That year we had five boys on the basket ball team, two of them making the Hrst team. In September 1928, we came back to school, but found on entering, that only seven were eligible to seats in the Junior row. Before the end of the first semester a mem- ber dropped out, leaving the half-dozen boys. The big event of the year was our Junior-Senior banquet. We are not bragging, but each test we get to see, our class average is the highest in the school. We are few and mighty. Watch the class of 1930 shine!

In September 1927, twenty half grown boys and girls entered the door of knowledge at McC. H. S. The teachers looked upon us as mere children, while the upper classmen called us Greenies . In spite of being greenies we placed two boys and one girl on basket ball teams. In the Fall of 1928 we came back to school making the school room ring as we greeted our old friends. When the roll was called we fo-und several absent. Early in the year a class-mate, Darwin Clark, was instantly killed by an automobile. Two boys and three girls found places on the basket ball teams. Looks like our number will be less September, 1929.

It was in the early Fall of 1928 that the Freshman class, twenty in number, entered the gates of McC. H. S., so that we might seek a better 'education. We soon got busy and elected our class oificers. Of course the upper classmen poked fun at us, but we are proud to say that five members from our class played on the basket ball teams, two girls making the first team. Altogether we think we have accom- plished a great deal in one year, we hope to do more in the future for us and McC. H. S., so that at the end of the four years we may come out to be the best class that has ever graduated from McC. H.' S. We had several parties during the year, including a coast- ing party.

Boys' Basketball By the middle of November we found every one thinking of basket ball and when the first night of practice was announced half of the thirty-seven boys in High School answered the call. After a couple of weeks of severe coaching by Coach Potter, we were ready to meet Weston on our own floor in a practice game. Then after this game came more hard practices, and eleven hard-fought games, in which we won eight of the eleven games by a score of 261 points to our opponents' score of 170 points. The above is a cut of the Memorial Building where our basket ball games are played. Although there are four men leaving the squad this year we are looking forward to a fast and furious team next year, if the prospects from the Freshman and Sophomore classes develop as did Pope and Fiser during the past year. The men graduating who found places on the team are: Loyd Dennie, captaing Warren Culbertson, Ray Gordon, Paul Pope, Claire Fiser, and Kelso Richards.

They had a courtship like- A Midsum- n1er's Night Dream . He was a rather persistent youth and she told him that he made- Much Ado About Nothing . However, he proposed to her on the- Twelfth Nighty. And she very demurely replied- As You Like It . That this might not be- The Comedy of Errors , he hastened to town and bought a ring from- The Merchant of Venice . Great preparations were made for the wedding. The best man was-- Richard III , the ushers were- The Two Gentlemen of Verona . Among the notable people present were- Julius Caesar , King Lear , Henry VI , Macbeth and Mark Anthony . After the wedding there was a grand reception given by- The Merry Wives of Winsor . The happy couple went to housekeeping in a little- Hamlet , and they soon found married life much like- The Tempest . She gave him- Measure for Measure and his occupation turned out to ble- The Taming of the Shrew .

This work consists of poems, biographies, talks and music. Each pupil must take part in the programs at least twelve times during the year. Each time they ap- pear on the program, they receive a red card. Twelve red cards are necessary as part of the English requirement in order to secure a unit of credit in English. A certain number of red cards must be in our possession each six week period, or our English grade on our grade card is absent, furthermore our industry grade seems to wane. The cards we get for this work are red cardboard bearing our name, date, and the name of the production we gave, the color being significant of danger ahead as is seen by the rush the last few weeks to get in possession of the coveted number of these precious treasures. Time passes quickly at this time of year, and several of us have barely the half yearly requirement of red cards. Oh, My! Our programs will soon end owing to out- door activities. The aim of our auditorium work is to enable one to stand, think, and speak before a group of people. KATHRYN DIELMAN. Lola Jones, Grelton, O. Eula Bucklin, Toledo, Ohio. Earle Bohling, Toledo, O.

T T T T A balky mule has four-wheel brakes, A billy goat has bumpers, The fire-Hy, a bright spot light, And rabbits are puddle jumpers, Camels have balloon tired feet, And carry spares of what they eat 5 But I think that nothing beats The kangaroos with rumble seats! T T T T The Happy Hour-saying good night for the last time. T T + T ' Professor Potter fat the close of periodjz This is absolutely the poorest recitation I ever heard! Why I've done over half of it myself ! T T T T It makes a difference , said Paul as he snipped off the left ear of one of the twins. T T T T A Belgian student was relating his experiences in studying the English language. When I dis- covered that if I was quick I was fast , he said, and that if I was tied I was fast, and if I spent too freely I was fast, and that not to eat was to fast, I was discouraged. But when I came across the sentence, 'The first one won one one-dollar prize', I gave up trying to learn English . T T T T No doubt the printer for the Dynamo will think the typist of the manuscript was the satisfied cus- tomer of the type writer company who was asked to write a testimonial as to the satisfaction the machine had given, and obligingly dashed off the following: Aafter useing these atypewriter fro thre month an d Over.I i unhessitatinhtatingl y prononce it tobe al adn moor than the M anufacturs cliam? for It.

Buzz fmodestlyj: I guess it all comes from my early training, sir. You see, my mother used to take me shopping with her on bargain days. T T T T The absend minded professor, Mr. Potter, was walking down street one day with one foot on the pavement and the other in the gutter. Chancing to meet a certain very dear friend from Weston, she said: Good morning, Mr. Potter, and how are you today? I thought I was very well, but for the last ten minutes I have been limping badly. T T T T Miss Hatcher: Surely you know what the word 'mirror' means, Elmer. After you have washed what do you look at to see if your face is clean ? Elmer: The towel, ma'am .
