MISS 113+MlIUIHlNE+MlRGlE Our Threshold of Learning fpdgf Frrnrb Dllllllli lItllllllS lllf4DllR6lf WENTY years ago, in 1910, The William McGuffey School was found- ed. The chief purpose of the school was to provide a place for practice teaching under trained supervisors for students in the Teachers' College of Miami University. The high school was named for the famous author and teacher, William H. McGuffey, who wrote the series of readers called by his name. At first the building comprised only the south wing, now occupied by the Senior High School, the Junior High School and the Department of Music. The attendance the second year of the school's existence was one hundred and twenty-five, including the students of the two-year high school. As the years passed, the attendance grew, a full four year course was added in 1911- 12, and the attendance became so large that the present facilities were inade- quate. Accordingly, the north wing was built with an expenditure of nearly 3100,000. This addition provided the McGuffey students a fine auditorium. After these improvements were added, the attendance grew and many who sought admittance were of necessity turned away. The new east wing, finished in 1925, was built to remedy this deficiency, at an expense of more than 3150, 000. This wing furnished room for the primary and intermediate departments of the practice school, and also added the new gymnasium with its 553,000 equipment to make it complete in every way, Such facilities have aided McGuffey High School greatly in gaining an admirable record unequaled by schools many times its size. In 1924-25 Mc- Gufey won a trophy for having the best freshmen on Miami Campus. The fact that McGuffey is essentially a practice school does not hinder the grad- uates in any fashiongin fact, they may be admitted to any state university without being required to pass the entrance examinations. At present the enrollment of the McGuHey School is as follows: Prima- ry department 151g Intermediate department 109: Junior High School 100gand Senior High School 118, making a total of 478. There are in the Senior High 20 critic teachers. The past has given us a worthy example: let us live up to it. fPuge Hvel IIDIIR. dll.

ACTION: Danny daCruz pounded excitedly on the door of the Roud- ebush home. In answer to the look of surprise on J ane's face as she opened the door, he exclaimed, O, look, Jane! See what I've found! An old McGuffey annual, issued the year your brother was a senior. As they passed into the house, they were greeted by cries of joy: Look whathe's got An old Reflector! from Joe Kirkpatrick, Gail Hawkins, and Caroline Shepherd, who were sitting by the fire. Yes, said Danny, and when I found it I brought it right over so we could all look at it. ,'Why , he continued, opening the book to the Senior Page here's a picture of J ane's brother, Pat. Good looking chap wasn't he? By the way, Jane, what's he doing now? Pat? , asked Jane, why he's playing baseball with the Yanks. He always said he wanted to be a professional baseball player. I suppose, too, that Ina May Shepherd has left the Broadway stage for Hollywood. You know she played the title role in the refilming of that old favorite, The Magnific- cent Flirt. Say, who's that fellow? There? Oh, that's 'Peasblossom' Goldsmith. Say, though, it's the funniest thing! When Howarb went to Miami, he ran into Pittser, and the coach made a great big 'he-man' out of him. He's football coach at Notre Dame now. Speaking of athletics, McGuifey was certainly well represented at the Olympics this year. Arthur Davis won the 100-meter dash, and Opal Flint defeated Betty Robinson in the women's division of the same event. I hear too that Stanley Kunkel is President of the University of Cin- cinnati, and is advocating more physical education among the co-eds. Her- schel Bess is voice instructor at the Cincinnati, Conservatory., He spends his spare time driving a bus on the Hamilton-Cincinnati bus line. That reminds me, Helen Kane has stopped making records for Victory too much competition from another baby-voiced girl, named Viola Tharp. They say Lucille Tharp's patented reducing machine is making her a fortune. Yes, and Elwood Denton, who has long been admired as McGuifey's most talented handshaker, is making tremendous commissions as a salesman for the Crosley Radio Corporation. Thelma Pheanis, she was always such a motherly sort of person, is sponsering a correspondence course, under the personal direction of Dorthy Dix, on 'Advice to the Lovelorn' . fPage Nineteenl ' SENIOR PROPHECeYj Contini1iedW if We're usingatext written by Frank Marquis, Proffessor of Physics at Yale. He was one of the shining lights of the McGuffey Physics Class. His inseparable companion Bill Shideler, has made a name for himself as World's Black-Jack Champion. And, just guess whom I heard over the radio, last night-George Chappars! He's gone into partnership with the historic pair Amos ,n Andy . Pa.zline Corso is designing dresses for Worth, too. Such achievement! And, for the benefit of you boys, Oddessa Anderson, and Ruth Stromier have a beauty parlor at Bath,lndiana. All of us go there for our permanent waves. Have you noticed, though, how popular Anna Hawkins ' cartoons are? Nearly every big newspaper is featuring them. Clarence Roberts, they say, is turning out as a big politican, and he gives the credit for all his ex- poits to the teaching of Mr. Bunger. While we're on the Subject, Marian Guiler is making 'soap box ' speeches, advocating 'more rights for woman ' . She ' s so convincing that she has won the attention of the president himself. But, have you heard of the wonderful work of Senator Dennison is doing with the 4 - H clubs. They say he was elected solely for the stand he made for the agricultural interests. They say, too, that 'D' Singleton is going to run for president on a platform of 'bigger, better, and more frequent vacations, and promises to set 'the example' if he is elected. I have some theater tickets for the performance of Burt Harris. You know, he has conquered all of the big cities with his clog dances. Did you hear what a great future they predicted for Donna Sylvester? She married Clarence Roberts while they were in Miami, but she is going on with her career, and helping him with his. At last an operetta has been written that has been well received by Mc- Guffey audiences. Pauline Cisch 'up and done it' when she wrote 1VlaGw,q??:y Knights. But what's Roberta McCreary doing? Why Roberta's head dietician at the Ft. Hamilton Hospital. Vada Bourne is a nurse there, too. And 'Larny' Kirkpatrick, you know Mr. Bunger was always so fond of him, has written a book, based on his own experiences, Why Girls Fall For Big Athletes. I really ought to go, but - - GREAT GUNS! Who is that motorcycle speed-demon? Oh,that's Alice Robbins. You see,tbe patients at the Retreat are allow- ed to ride bicycles abont town, aud she has the responsible position of round- ing them up when necessary . I wonder if we'll ever be famous - ---- well, goodbye . C P11 ge twevi t ill SllE5lINllIlDllR Wdllllblllo HE Senior Class has come to the conclusion that it would not be fair to leave McGuffey without giving the Juniors something to help them through next year. As a direct result of this agreement we have made this last will and testament of the Senior Class to go into effect September 1, 1930. Bert Harris bequeaths his ability to chew gum to Jack Byrne so he can chew two packs at once. Laurence Kirkpatrick not knowing anything else which he will not be needing next year, has decided to give Victor Morrical the captaincy of the McGuIfey football team. Pauline Cisch leaves her French books and vocabulary to Ruth Guiler. Arnold Singleton leaves his way with the ladies to Herman Kolb Bill Shideler is determined to give Stanley Roberts his front seat py Miss Corl's desk. Lucille Tharp her Upleasingly plump figure to be divided between Sylvia Shinkle and Mary Frances Fogarty. Miriam Guiler leaves her exellent penmanship to be used by Lucille Schriever, Vada Bourne leaves her studious yet fun loving nature to Alice Schriever. l'at Roudebush leaves his Ford to Raymond Smith to drive to school next year. Opal Flint gives her poetic talent to be of benefit to Dorthy Clark. Pauline Corso leaves her artistic inclinations to Ruth Schonwald. Roberta McCreary wills her basketball skill to Elizabeth Hendricks so she may be star forward next year. lna May Shephard leaves her little fits of temper to any spunkless Juni- or who needs them. Elwood Denton leaves his great and famous hand-shaking ability to the whole class. Frank Marquis gives his highly nonchalant and independent air to John Du Vall. Herschel Bess leaves his good voice to William Schuler. Ruth Strohmier leaves her amiable nature to Alma Wolnitzek. Alice Robbins gives her petite swagger to Abbie Halter. Howard Goldsmith leaves all of his books, pens, pencils, glasses, and his studious appearance to Calvin Skinner so he can have some chance of being a shining light. Stanley Kunkle leaves his Ford to Charles Ogden in order that he may take the Mc Guffey girls for rides next year. fag: Viola Tharp really thinks, after much hard study, that Ruth Curry would Continued on page fifty-four Uri. 1' I 11e1Lty-Oriel YE MCGUFFEY PORTAL -.

HE High School Boys Glee Club, under the able direction of Miss Elsie Franklin, has appeared in a number of programs this year. The Hrst appearance of the club was at the annual High School Concert when they sang a group of three interesting songs. At the Goodwill Program with Oak- wood at McCuffey, the Glee Club sang a few delightful numbers. Again at Commencement, the members of the club contributed to the pro- gram by rendering a number of selections which were well received. At Baccalaureate, however, the Boys Glee Club and the Girls Choral Club form- ed a chorus which rendered a short musical program Well received by the audience.

The students are very for- tunate to have an opportunity to develop their talents in such an organiza- tion. The training, which the pupils are receiving. will undoubtly be of great benefit to them in future musical pursuits. The popularity of the orchestra has been shown by its frequent pubilc appearances.

Every year an exchange of programs to promote good will between Oakwood High School and McGuffey is held. The speakers are chosen from class debaters. A program with Oakwood High School of Oakwood, Dayton, was held at McGuffey on April 15. The McGuffey Orchestra fur ished three numbers, and the boys' Glee Club, and Double Quartet sang. Elizabeth Hend- ricks acted as chairman, and gave the speech of welcome. The question for debate was Revolved: That the United States should adopt a plan of complete disarmament with the exception of such forces as are needed for police pro- tection. The negative was upheld by McGuffeyg the speakers: Calvin Skinner, Arnold Singleton. and Elwood Denton. On April 25, a program was held at Oakwood. The McGuffey affirmative team, composed of Clarence Roberts, Wilford Morris, and Wallace Roudebush debated the Oakwood negative team.

The members are divided into three groups: first year students are plebesg second year, equidesg and the advanced students senators: the names repre- senting common people, knights, and nobles, respectively. Meetings are held at the homes of members, and each year the club gives a banquet at which the plebes act as slaves. The first meeting is always given over to the innit- iation of the new members, and the evening's entertainment is given over to Latin games, songs, and plays.

However, McGuifey contin- ued to play the game, and the year ended in a burst of glory. The Green and White did its best. No more could be expectedg no less could be accepted Defeat did not continue, however: baseball and track became the high lights of the years events. Both of these spring sports demonstrated that: McGuffey still possessed the ability to win. Some critics were satisfied some, however, remembered all too well the defeats of the Big Green. But these ill-advised fault-finders forget that it takes as much sportsmanship to be a good loser as it takes to be a good winner. To be a good loser, a team must have nerve, will power, and determina- tion. To go into a game, to play that game fairly, and to do ones best, yet to go down in defeat requires nerve. Then too, the, loss of the game is not the only thing which brands an unsuccessful team: rooter and supporters, satisfied with nothing save victory,desert such teams. Moral aid ebbs slowly away, and the team is left to rebuild on its own will power. Determintation is required to stage a comeback after defeat. To' build up demands all of a team's determinetion. Yet to ascend after defeat shows of such stuff losers are made. McGuffey went through all of these stages, and, while the supporters of the Green and White did not remove all moral aid, the student body could have treated the two unsuccessful teams with more tolerance. However, defeat was good for McGuffey. This year, with unsuccessful and two successful teams, we displayed the mettle of McGuifey sportsman- ship. The teams proved that McGuffey was true to her trust. f Page Thirty-nine, llE4ID1D6lIflll2nQfMlI9lII9 , flff h, 31, K, BACK ROW - Morrical, Roberts, Lundin, R.

Looking upon the season from the vantage point of time, this record is not as appalling as it first sounds: this unsuccessful team was composed of only four letter men, the others on the team were entirely new. All in all, this team made a very creditable showing under the able tu- torship of J. Paul Albert. Although McGuffey won only three games, the Big Green scored thirty-one more points than did its opponents. The Green and White scored ninty-eight points: their opponents, sixty-seven. McGuffey opened its football season on the Varsity Practice Field, Octo- ber 3. On that afternoon, the Big Greens defeated the Hamilton High Fresh- men-Sophomore team 27-03 the Greens won this game by sheer strength, tempered with some football knowledge. The Baby Blues of Hamilton made the Greens work for every bit of the score. Ten days later, October 12, the McGuffeyites journeyed to Fairmont. In this Dayton suburb on that threatening Saturday, the Green and White tasted defeat for the first time in three gridiron seasons. The Purple and White won this encounter 28-6. The next week on October 19 the Greens were at home to Miami Mili- tary Institute. These men may have been oHicers, but they certainly were not gentlemen because no gentlemen would defeat their hosts in any ath- letic event. Nevertheless,these Germantown Cadets played their football according to Stagg and not toPost, and consequently the Blue and White defeated the Green and White 13-0. OnOctober 24, the Mackmen traveled to Reading to flounder in the mud with the pigskin. Either the mud was too deep or the pigskin was too lively, for again McGuffey went down in defeat to the count of 13-0. November began in no better fashion than October had closed, for on the first day of the new month McGuffey succumbed 6-0 to Catholic High of Hamilton. The unavoidable errors of a blocked punt and a mistaken sig- nal cost McGuffey the game. Outside of these two blunders, the Oxford Green and White outplayed the Hamilton Green and White on every turn. This moral victory changed McGuffey's luck because on the eighth of November, the Big Greens meted out a 13-0 defeat to West Carrollton High. This game saw the beginning of an aerial ofence by McGuH'ey: in this game, the passes gained 72 yards. The next week saw the close of the Green and White gridiron season. On November 15 the McGuHey team deafeated Lanier Township High 52-7. The men of the McGuffey faculty held the players in such esteem that they gave a banquet for the grid heroes on November 20. At this dinner Victor Morrical was elected captain for the 1930 season. fPage Fzrty Owe, lllZuASlKlIBC'lIflIEAllLolllb lIRlIl?Bll34DlRlID FIRST ROW-Halter, Harris, E. Myers, K.

This record gives McGuHey the percentage rating of .250. However, the season was not as unsuccessful as the above rating would tend to showg Mc- Guffey scored 239 points against its opponents' 320 points. These scores give the Green and White an average score of fifteen points to the game against thier opponents' twenty points. The season opened with the Big Greens of McGuHey playing Iragged basketball: the Green quintet lost its opening game in an unscheduled meet- ing with Hamilton High School. In the next two games McGuifey had bet- ter success: but, after these victories, the Green and White went into a slump during which time they won one game out of ten. However, the Big Greens constantly improved their game until tournament time. In the Sectional Tour- nament at Middletown, McGuffey won during the opening sessions on the first day. The biggest fault with the brand of basketball that McGuifey played during the current year was that their playing was not consistent through- out an entire game. During the first quarter of the average game, the Green and White showed but little interestg while the defence worked to a seeming advantage, the offensive playing of the Big Gree..s did not function. This of- fense, however, worked during the second period when llLcGuffey generally scored most of the points it made in the fiirst half. The second half was us- ually a repetition of the first two periods, with the third quarter the weak period of the half. As a matter of fact, the third quarter was generally the weakest period of entire game. The only plausible reason for this seemingly disinterested playing in the first and third quarters is that McGuffey, with an inexperienced team, allowed its opponents to set the pace of playing. This conclusion may sound rather caustic, but it seems to be the general consensus of opinion. However, the Green and White always 'tplayed the game , and played it squarely. After years of athletic victory, this team showed that McGulfey could be good losers as well as good winners. Coach Albert was well satisfied with this basketball team considering that it was formed from a nucleus of but two letter men. As the creator of this year's team, Mr. Albert deserves much creditg he coached a team which made its opponents work for their victories from an inexperienced group, Clilge Fllflljl-11ll'F!7J 4l3flllllRlIi9S'J lll5A.SlllQllE5qIIflll2nQfMl9lllQ9 1ST ROW: Anna Hawkins, Miriam Guiler, Sylvia Shinkle, Fern Hornung, Mary Frances Fogarty, Ruth Guiler. 2ND ROW: Sieglinde Handschin, Margaret Evans, Lucille Thrap, Miss An- derson lCoachJ, Frances McGuffin, Viola Tharp, Cecilia Jowdy. HE basketball season of 1929-30 was an eventful one for the girl bas- keteers of McGuffey High School. More games were played, than- have been scheduled for several years. One game was played, with an out- of-town team, the Milford girls of Darrtown. Although McGuifey suffered defeat, the girls had a chance to get started: for this was the first game of the season. Several other games were played between teams made up of McGuffeyites. Next year the girls hope to do more than they did last year, and schedule more games. Another feature which seemed to cause much comment, and draw great crowds to the girls' games, was the new suits. Everyone wishes to thank Miss Anderson for her efficient coaching. f Page 1'v07'f1!jf0'llTJ WllMll99 lIMllllf5llNIl lllQllZQlNlIlQl3D Laurance Kirkpatrick: football, basketball.

The Big Greens playedfvictorius baseball until tournarrient timeg and although this year's team did not repeat the successes enjoyed by either the 1928 or 1929 Green and White baseball teams, it faired the best of any McGuffey nine in recent years. In stricking average scores summarized from the retinue of scheduled games, the 1928 team won its games by the average score of 4-73 the 1929 organization, by a 5 to 10 count: while this 1930 team wone by the average score of 2 to 9. This impressive record was made by a team built from the nucleus of but five veteran lettermen, and such a team is a fitting climax to the highly suc- cessful career of J. Paul Albert as McGuffey coach. Girl's Baseball Team For the first time in the history of McGuffey High School, the members of the fairer sex organized a baseball team. Under the efficient direction of Miss Geneva Anderson, the girls became very experienced and 'Iierce in the arts of batting and catchinga baseball. As in basketball, the girls played only among themselves. To some, this might seem very unfortunate, but they feel asif they can now go to a boy's game, and really comprehend it. The girls not only received much experience, but exercise, too. Next year, we'll have a better team, and learn more about the game, and how it's done. fPage Forty-Sevvenj - fdIlfllRA1l3lIlQ RTHUR DAVIS won individual hon- ors in track this year.
