W. Heckert, present director of the institution and Professor of Education at Miami University. The school was founded as a laboratory in which the students of Miami's School of Education could practice teaching. At first, the entire school occupied only the south-west wing of the present building. The high school, not a four year course until 1912, had an enrollment of thirty-five. The school was named for William Holmes lVlcGuffey, who taught English at Miami for a decade starting in 1825. He is famous as the author of the lVlcGuffey Readers. McGuffey's first principal was Mr. Schwartz, who is now professor of history at Bowling Green, Ohio. In 1915 Mr. Charles S. Bunger re- placed him and held that position until his death in 1935. For the year following, Dr. Ober Slotterbeck was the acting principal. Dr. J. H. Coleman, the present principal, assumed his duties in 1937. Besides being an excellent training school for teachers, lVlcGuffey pre- pares its students for admission to any state university without taking entrance examinations. DIRECTOR DR. J. W. HECKERT-DIRECTOR OF MCGUFFEY SCHOOL 5 E 'F L... MCGUFFEY The McGu,ffey Of Today The alumni of 1913 left the halls of McGuffey High School with a very differ- ent picture in their minds from that of the class of 1940. The high school, although it stands -on the same foundation, has changed a great deal. During the first years of the institution's existence, it was housed in the south wing of the building. In the spring of 1938 Public Work Administration money was appropriated for fire-proofing the old wing of the McGuffey High School building. During the entire year that followed, classes were held on the Miami Campus while workmen completely remodeled the old building, leaving only the original walls. In the fall of 1939, over two hundred students flocked into new rooms-rooms equipped with clocks, thermostats, telephones, etc. Fine new lockers, replac- ing 'cloak halls and stuffed desks, lined the halls. Steel, fire-proofed, and tiled floors took the place of the old hazardous ones. The music department, under the new plan, was placed on the fourth floor. Pianos were tuned, window shades went up properly, and glass enclosed book shelves stood in readiness with their cargo of kn-owledgeg the new McGuffey gleamed on the first day of school. One of the finest iinprovements in the new building is the science laboratory which occupies one half of the first floor. Mr. John Richardson, critic in phy- sical science and advanced math, planned the rooms and the placement of the equipment. The east section of the department is devoted to the sophomore biology classes. The western half was equipped for the junior and senior chemistry classes. The equipment, the finest in the state at present, cost nearly five thousand dollars and will accommodate fifty students. Because of some delay at the factory, the new material did not arrive until the beginning of the second semester, but the students in chemistry have been spending all their spare time making up for their lost lab periods. A lunch room with the best of cafeteria equipment was put in the basement on the south side. In 1910 only thirty-five were enrolled in the high school. In 1939-40 there were two hundred fifty-eight on the .lists, an increase of twenty-eight over the preceding year. Students from Bath, Somerville, Darrtown, Collins- ville, and Israel Township come to Oxford each day for their high school ed- ucation. These people are partly responsible for the large increase in enroll- ment. During the last decade several new courses have been offered. Journalism under Miss Hope Hamilton, advanced math, taught by Mr. John Richardson, consumers' business, a new course offered by Miss Mary W. Jones, and a mixed boys' and girls' chorus led by Miss Catherine Adams, have been placed among the elective courses for McGuffey students. 1940 marks a very definite mile-stone in the history of William McGuffey High School. With the aid of the finest equipment, the faculty hopes to be of even more service to the community and to build better citizens of the boys and girls that attend this institution. DEDICATION To JOHN S. RICHARDSON Critic teacher of the sciences, this annual is dedicated in sincere ap- preciation of his high teaching standards, his desire to make McGuffey a better institution, his personal interest in all students, and his fine cooperation in all problems concerning the school.

Playing before a large crowd, perhaps the largest of the season, the Green Wave came through to win its first game 19 to 6. The score at the half was 13 to 0 in favor of the Macs. Playing under the handicap of wind and rain in the third and fourth quarters, the Macs made a safe margin because the substitutions were plentiful. On September 22, the Macs traveled to Ludlow, Kentucky, to play their second game under the lightsg here we were defeated by a score of 18 to 0. The score at the half was 13 to 0 in favor of our opponents. Playing their first home game, the Macs whipped North College Hill 13 to 0- The Green Wave's first touchdown came when Kirkpatrick raced around end for twenty yards. The Ma-cs, ahead by a score of 7 to 0 at the half, made their final touchdown in the third quarter when McGinnis scored from the one foot line. The McGuffey eleven played one of its best games of the season in defeating Monroe, the defending champions of the Little Southwestern League, by a score of 26-19. Dick Minnis starred by running the kick-off back for a touch- down and a few minutes later by racing around end for thirty yards to score the second touchdown of the game. After this the Green Wave was ahead all the way. The B team took the Trenton lads to the tune of 7 to 0 before a very small crowd. Both teams put up a very stubborn defense in the first half with neither team scoring. The first team was called upon to score the only touch- down of the game, with our extra point specialist making the score seven. The Macs, playing another very good game, won over the Trojans by a score of 27 to 0 at Connersville, Indiana. They had their backs to the wall the first half leading only 6 to 0. The Wave started to click in the third quarter and scored two touchdowns, the last being scored by the second team. The B team defeated a hard-fighting Seven Mile team 13-0 for its second win of the season. The game featured long runs and intercepted passes, al- FOOTBALL Through The Goal Posts though the scoring was very low, being 6 to 0 at the half- Coach Ewbank, needing another touchdown, sent in a few of the first team. Playing hosts to Morton of Richmond, Indiana, the Macs were defeated 10 to 7. The score at the half was tied 7 to 7. In the last period the Hoosiers ad- vanced the ball to the Green Wave's fifteen yard line where they kicked a three-pointer, giving them a 10 to 7 lead. The team, as well as the school, re- ceived a serious blow when Tom McFall, right guard, received a fractured leg. Traveling to Fairfield the Macs topped a fighting Fairfield eleven 20 to 0. The Macs scored first in the first quarter, when Dick Minnis raced around end from the twenty-yard line. In the second quarter the Green Wave plunged 'over for its second touchdown, thus leading 14 to 0 at the half. The final goal came when Kennedy carried the ball around end for thirty yards. Playing before the largest home crowd, the Macs lost their last game to the Norwood Indians by a score of 12 to 0. The Indians scored in the first and second quarters, leading at the half 12-0. The Green Wave held the Indians scoreless in the second half, but were unable to score themselves. 1939-40 FOOTBALL SCHEDULE SCORE 1VIcGuffey Opponents Sept. 16-Hamilton Catholic ...... .............. 1 9 6 Sept 22--Ludlow, Kentucky ...... .......... 0 18 Sept. 29-North College Hill ...... .......... 1 3 6 Sept. 30-Morton BH ........... . ....... 6 0 Oct. 6-Monroe ............ .......... 2 6 19 Oct. 13-Cormersville ....... .......... 2 7 0 Oct. 14-Trenton ............ ....... 7 0 Oct. 20-Morton AH .... ....... 7 10 Oct. 21-Seven Mile .... .......... 1 3 0 Oct. 26-Fairfield ....... .......... 2 0 0 Nov. 3-Norwood ....... ....... 0 12 BASKETBALL Through The Basket The McGuffey basketball team finished one of its most successful seasons in many years, winning fourteen games and losing but seven. The nineteen game schedule started with an impressive 20-16 victory over Camden, but the fol- lowing week the Big Green met defeat at the hands of a strong class AH Celina team, 31-26. In crushing Brownsville 39-21 for the second triumph of the season, the Macs displayed an overwhelming offensive attack, charac- teristic of the many contests to follow. The next week-end two hard games were played, the first resulting in an outstanding victory over Dayton Stivers, 24-14, and the latter ending with Wyoming on the long end of a 23-18 score. Mid-season found the Green and White in top form as they emerged victor- ious in eight of the nine succeeding games, losing only to Aurora, 35-27. Victories were chalked up against the Alumni, West Chester, Liberty, St. Xavier, Eaton, North College Hill, Mt. Healthy, and Piqua. After dropping the ensuing two frays to Hamilton Catholic and Fairfield, the McGuffey five rallied to subdue both of its next opponents, College Corner and Springfield. The regular season ended in a thriller betwween our boys and Walnut Hills, the latter clinching the game in the last few minutes of play, 21-18. Q In tournament competition McGuffey easily defeated her first foe, Tailoring, 56-25, but lost after a hard-fought battle in the second round to a taller Wyoming bunch, 35-24. Seniors wearing the green and White for the last time were Kennedy, for- ward, D. Fichter, forward, Alderman, center, and Kyger, guard, with Ken- nedy leading the team in scoring, having contributed 156 of the team's 640 points. The following lettermen will return to form the nucleus of the prospective 1940-41 basketball team: Minnis, Pheanis, G. Hunsinger, Kirpatrick, Magaw, and D. Hunsinger, Additional boys who will be on hand are: Glasgow, Cook, Davis, Young, H. Fichter, Teetzel, Cummingham, Beimford, Hendricks, and Phipps, all of whom gained valuable experience in either AU or HB games during the course of this season. The McGuffey quint boasted an offensive average of 30.5 points per game and a comparatively low defensive average of 24.3 points. Through good sportsmanship, excellent team co-operation, and the tireless efforts of Coach Ewbank, the Macmen were able to complete their twenty-one game campaign in a manner pleasing to every one of the McGuffey basket- ball fans.

Baseball, after a year's absence from the sport calendar, once again led the way in spring athletics with approximately thirty boys participating. From the last two weeks in April until the latter part of May, the squad worked out every afternoon, playing on the average of two games a week. Num- erous tryouts for the various positions were held during the first two weeks of practice as the team slowly rounded into shape for the opening encounter with Hanover on April 30. In the course of the next month two games each were played with College Corner, Liberty, and Richmond, and one each with Eaton, and Wyoming. A very successful season can be attributed to the fact that the entire baseball team was out there 'tfightingi' continually with plenty of spirit and pep. The prospects for the 1941 baseball nine appear even brighter as only six seniors will be lost through graduation this year- The following is a list of the boys on the baseball squad with their positions: outfielders, Davis, B. Spenceley, McGinnis, Pheanis, Foster, Williams, Collier, Thieman, Cook, infielders, Thobe, Phipps, G. Hunsinger, Russell, Lewis, Wickenden, D.

Association The year of 1940 brings around the sixth birthday of the G.A.A. This organ- ization gives the girls of McGuffey Senior High School opportunity to have more fun playing with a group, more and better exercise, and a chance to learn good sportsmanship. The girls are pleased to have as their supervisor, Miss Mildred Wohlford. New plays, issues, and recommendations are discussed in board meetings. The executive board is made up of president, vice-president, the secretary- treasurer, and aprepresentive from each class. During the four seasons, the girls have the privilege of choosing the sports in which they wish to engage. Among the most popular sports are: modern dancing, soccer, tennis, volleyball, basketball, and bowling. Through partici- pation in these various sports, the McGuffey High School girls may earn enough points to entitle them to a school letter. The awards offered are an MH for which a girl must earn 1200 points and a numeral, requiring 600 points. Other than the sports, the G.A.A. carries on the following activities: September-Mixer for newcomers November-G.A.A. initiation and Soccer feed G.A.A. at home to Dayton and Miamisburg groups at dancing December-G.A.A. at home to Eaton group at dancing May -Play Day Public 'dance recital June -Formal banquet for presentation of awards and installation of officers for the coming year. MUSIC Urchestra The McGuffey High School Orchestra, comprised of forty-six pieces and the winner of last year's regional music contest, is not eligible for further com- petition until 1941. Therefore the orchestra only entered the Southwestern Festival for criticism and experience. Although the organization had a quiet year as far as contests were concerned, it gave, under the direction of Mr. A. D. Lekvold and the student conductors, three concerts during the year. Through arrangements with the Fine Arts Department of Miami, the Mc- Guffey Orchestra this year obtained the use of certain music equipment owned by the university. The use of such instruments as string bass, oboe, per- cussion, viola, and bassoon was obtained. Practices were transferred from McGuffey to the Benton Hall auditorium, According to Mr. Lekvold, these new arrangements will be the greatest forward step in the history of the orchestra if an interest is taken in the newly provided instruments. Mixed Chorus GLEE CLUB The McGuffey Glee Club of sixty-eight mixed voices has had a very success- ful and enjoyable year. Directed by Miss Catherine Adams and student con- ductors, the group has given several concerts during the year. At the De- cussion, viola, and bassoon was obtained. Practices were transferred from varied Christmas program. The Kiwanis Club also enlisted the talents of the group at a February luncheon meeting. For the Southwestern Festival the glee club, due to its size, was divided into two groups. A larger group sang for competition receiving a rating of excellent being an alternate for the state contest. A smaller group sang for criticism. In April this organization performed at a high school assembly. As usual, the chorus was well rep- resented at the Butler County Festival, also held in April. The annual spring cencert rounded out a full year of concerts. ORCHESTRA FIRST ROW ileft to rightjz Arlyn Unsicker, Floyd Weber, George Manrod, Mearle Sayers, Allen Sandage, Naomi Beal.

Ensembles MUSIC A Spring Concert The spring concert, held annually by the music organizations of McGuffey High School, again showed the remarkable progress made by the various groups. The concert was presented this year on May 3, in Benton Hall. The McGuffey Orchestra, under the direction of Professor A. D. Lekvold and members of the class in instrumental conducting, opened the program with the March Classique from Concerto for Piano by Von Weber. Then fol- lowed the Mission Overture by Harold H. Johnson, after which Maurene Fields and Marjorie Moore played a violin duet. The Roumanian Fantasy by Carol Velska and the Sheperd's Dance by Franz Schubert added a lighter air to the program. The Procession of the Mastersingers from Die Meistersingern Act III by Richard Wagner concluded the first part of the concert. Directed by Miss Catherine Adams and Miami student conductors, the Mc- Guffey Mixed Chorus presented a varied program. The group opened with Lo, A Voice to Heaven Calling by Bortniansky, followed by The Legende by Tschaikowsky. Green Pastures, by Sanderson, Waltz from The Sleeping Beauty, by Tschaikowsky, and Jacob's Ladder, a Negro spiritual, followed.

GOVERNMENT Student Council The McGuffey Student Executive Council was established in 1938 under the direction of Dr. J. H. Coleman. The council discusses and decides upon mat- ters pertaining to the school and its general welfare. Weekly meetings are conducted by the student president of the organization under the counselship of Dr. Coleman. During the school year of 1939-40, the Council conducted a Clean-Up campaign to help preserve our modernized building, advocated trips for students to Washington, D- C. and other places of interest, directed the sale of Junior Red Cross and tuberculosis pins, and advised students in a child welfare program. The Council is composed of three members, elected by popular vote, from each -class. The elections take place at the beginning of the year and at se- mesters, replacing half of the group at a time. Therefore, those who remain are experienced to train the newcomers. Under the Student Council is the General Fund Committee. This group, of which the chairman is chosen by the Council, includes one member from each class and three faculty advisors. This body budgets the money that is placed in the fund by the various clubs and organizations of the school. Any organization can draw money from this fun-d by petitioning the committee. The Noon Hour Committee is another branch of the Student Council. The president, also chosen by the Council, presides over a representative group of students. Dr. Duane Smith is the advisor of this group. As this committee had no money to spend of its own, it presented a petition to the General Fund Committee for a ping-pong table and was granted the request. The table has been used by the students that stay in the building during the noon period and by the town students who wish to play after school. The present system of student government in McGuffey seems to be a sat- isfactory one because of its democratic program.

Student Council DRAMATICS Citamard The Citamard is a dramatic club which was organized in January, 1938, with the following objectives: to give the student a chance in the dramatic field, to further the youth movement in dramatics, and to encourage a high stand- ard of co-operation. The club offers opportunity for participation in acting, directing, make-up, and stage setting. The members presented two successful one-act plays in the McGuffey audi- torium on December 2 entitled Saturday Market, a serious play having an all-girl cast, and Off the Main Road, a comedy. The Happy Journey, Thornton Wilder's one act play, was staged for an assembly program on April 11. The officers of this organization are: President, Dick Fichterg Secretary, Mary Louise Frechtlingg Treasurer, Mary Ann Thome. Miss Hope Hamilton is the advisor for the Citamard Club. Senior Play One of the cleverest class plays in many years, What a Life by Clifford Gold- smith, was given this year by the senior class. This three-act comedy was presented in the McGuffey auditorium on April 19, 1940. Mr. Edward Ham- lyn, a member of the Miami speech department, was the eminent director under the supervision of Miss P. M. Corl. This play attained so much success on Broadway that Mr. Goldsmith is now writing a series of radio programs centering around the activities of many of the same characters.

The class is a laboratory course for amateur journalists who Wish to study about news- papers in connection with their Work on the weekly school paper. The pur- pose of the class is not to put out a perfect paper, but to learn the essentials of journalism by the trial and error method. These students have been re- sponsible for the many improvements which have made the 1939-40 Mirror the best it has ever been. 1 REFLECTUR Co-Editors .,..,........

Our socially-minded students wasted no time in getting together. Soon after the opening of school, on September 26, a friendly mixer was held in the auditorium. The newest recordings provided the rhythm, refreshments were served, games, and a series of Paul Jones added to the enjoyment of the large crowd. The annual Football Dance on November 10 was the occasion for the crown- ing of Tom McFall as king and Henrietta Pheanis as queen, with Maurene Fields and Bud Kennedy wearing the attendants' robes. The Kampus Kats played for the dancers in the tastefully decorated gymnasium. The fair sex was given a taste of what the boys have as a regular diet when each girl escorted her best choice to an Adam's Eve Dance on February 16. As a novelty, an Adam and an Eve were chosen by the simple method of drawing names from a hat, Johnny Young being Adam and Esther Williams, Eve. The Music School presented a skit, and Anastasia Minas and Pat Ma- gill sang two duets for entertainment. For relaxation after basketball games, informal and brief dances were held after the home games. Everybody enjoyed the informality and friendliness at these dances which did much to make McGuffey one happy family. As an experiment, the Junior class held a dance this year which was strictly a non-date affair. ltappeared to be a very successful party, for the entire junior class turned out to enjoy an evening of dancing. The Campus Howls, a newly organized band composed of members of the senior high school, pro- vided the music. Soon after spring vacation, the McGuffeyites returned to their former en- vironment to dance to the melodies of Sheik Coyle and his band. The occasion was the annual Spring Strut. The date, May 10, brought great happiness to impatient studentsg for it was then that the Junior-Senior Reception was held. This formal dance proved exceptionally successful, and the juniors may be given a large handn. Equally as magnificent was the annual Alumni Senior Ball which took place on the evening of May 31. Here many of those who had left lVIcGuffey behind returned to dance together with the present students. A wonderful time was had by everyone, this also refers to the entire social year. cY 7 TSUCIAL l FIRST ROW Cleft to rightj :Bob Howald, Roberta Kersting, Macel Demoret, Ada VanNess.

This group represents a definite part of McGuffey High School in plan- ning the parties. Its responsibilities include deciding upon the type of party, securing the orchestra or music, decorating, selling tickets, and taking care of publicity. The Party Committee has planned the Mixer, the Football Dance, the basketball dances, and the Spring Swing. The Leap Year Dance, however, was sponsored by the Mirror staff. ., .1 H Mimi' . 3 S 0 C I A L When The Lights Are Low Upper left-The Citamard production Off the Main Road .

ASSEMBLIES Assemblies The first assembly of the year was held in McGuffey Auditorium on October 13. Mary L. Frechtling introduced the speaker, Dr. R. J. VanTassel, to the high school. Dr. VanTassel used as his theme, the proverb, As the twig is bent, so is the tree inclined. He advocated four steps toward better studying. The first is to keep work and play separate. f The second step is to read under pressure. He said if you wish to master what you are reading, the best way to do it is to read it three times. The first time you would be simply scanning the material, getting a bird's eye view. The second reading is the intensive reading, and third is the final one. The third step is to try to express one's self well both in oral and written work. The fourth step is to review immediately after reading. In this way one masters the material one has read. On Monday, November 13, Nilkauth Chavre of India spoke to a. large group of McGuffey students in the auditorium. He showed the audience costumes, demonstrated the folding of the turban, and entertained with moving pictures of his country. He concluded his lecture with several of his personal experi- ences in India. On November 24 at 10 o'clock the senior high school adjourned to the audi- torium in order to see the movie f'Toward Unityf, The movie showed that even though war and strife inhabit some lands, and even though racial and climate differences are great, the whole world is united under one bondage, the necessity for food, clothing and shelter. Before the movie, Mary Rider played a few selections on her accordian. There was an assembly for the senior high school on January 11 in the audi- torium. Dean E. J. Ashbaugh, the speaker, had as his topic Difficulties of Language. He began his talk by reading from Mark Twain on the difficulties of the German language. Then he illustrated similar difficulties in the Eng- lish language. On February 23 Dr. Fred Joyner, professor of history at Miami University, spoke to the senior high school. The subject of the lecture was In the Foot- steps of George Washington. On March 20, the senior high school enjoyed a splendid picture of modern Washington, D. C. During the latter part of the hour, James Weinberger, a McGuffey graduate of 1939, told interestingly of his recent experience in the United States Navy. He had just returned from the West Indies and the Virgin Islands. He willingly answered any questions regarding his work. Our speaker had made such a good record in the Navy that he had been chosen to enter a gov- ernment school in New London, Connecticutt, to study a course on sound equipment for submarines. The student body will follow his future success with interest. CALE DAR The Year's Events In Review SEPTEMBER 18-The beginning of another busy school year.
