TH E PRESS ASSOCIATION TROPHY The Western New York lnterscholastic Press Association trophy in the offset division was awarded to the 1938 Mirror at the association meeting on December 3, 1938. This yearbook, which had as its theme the three-fold training of the individual student as carried out by Medina High School, was edited by Clay Sprowls, with Harry Remde, Jr., as associ- ate editor. 1938 was the first year that the Mirror had used the process. The Press Association meeting took place at Riverside High School, Buffalo, New York. f . l L S E . F K irror fwaenfel THE.

In its own small way therefore high school contributes to this great end. After eight years of elementary training, students enter Senior High School as freshmen. This step may be compared with the advancement from a small room to a larger one which proves new and interesting. Predominant among the features of this room are the several windows taking up almost the entire wall space, Composed of wooden frames, intersections and glass, these windows represent Education in the secondary school. The frames are the departments of study, namelyilfnglish, sciences, mathematics, social science, art, music, health, indus- trial arts, home economics, commercial subjects, and foreign languages. These subjects as the basis of the window help us look out upon the world with intelligent and searching minds. The leaded intersections serve to enhance the windows as well as to hold the glass in place. These are the sports- baseball, basketball, football, track, tennis, bowling, boxing, and wrestling-in which the students participate in order to develop strong, healthy bodies artd a spirit of cooperation. Added to the ordinary routine of school life, sports afford a means of play which is essential to everyone. Finally, the glass or activities are the joining points of the frames and lead. Musical, recreational, educational, and drama- tic clubs and organizations require knowledge of both subject matter and sports. The activities add their own benefits and so blend with the others that the result is a high school course, as nearly perfect as it can possibly be. Thus through the windows of this larger room, high school students may look out upon the world, learning as they do so. And when they become seniors, they step forth into this world to go on to college or to take up a vocation, but always to continue learning, already much benefited by their three-fold high school career. WE HONOR Mr. Menke: Dr. Shoemaker: Dr. Arnett: Mr. Acer: Mr. Trippensee Mr. Sinclair: Mr. Posson: Pres. 0'ReiIIy: Mr. Whipple: Mr. Waters The Medina Board of Education surely deserves commendation for its years of able direction and supervision.

The English teachers try to promote an appreciation of all types ot worthwhile literature, a desire tor a knowl- ot famous literary men edge ot the lives d women and a realization of the import- an , ance ot poise and of self-expression in oral and written work. Among the proiects carried on by the English classes this year were the collecting and singing of balads, the making of scrap- ' the k containing pictures of authors, boo s drawing of a literary map ot the United ' writing assignments and the States, creative participation in inter-class debates. The Scribblers, published semi-annually, brings to light any occult creative talents. This magazine features short stories, dramas, poems, and essays, which have been written by members ot the English classes. Methods of teaching employed in this department include unit, proie ct, and committee work. REHDHTG HUD WRlTl ND LIBRARY ln addition to the regular English classes is the journalism group, which began its study during the second semester. lts purposes are to train students to read newspapers intelligently and to improve their ability to express themselves torce- tully.

Carried away on the wings ot its books, the pupil can visit tar away lands, times, and peoples. Through an acquaint- ance with books, the Library Department hopes to develop in the student a well rounded personality, a ,respect tor property, an interest in the highest types of reading and in a variety of books and writers, a desire for the wise use ot leisure time, and correct habits of study and research. Each month during the year many new books are added to the Library to keep it up-to- date.

There- l-listory is a repetition of even fore, by studying the failures and successes of p ' rofit by their experiences. Among the aims of the Social Studies Department are many of the utmost import- ance: to give the pupil a knowledge of the past which will help him to interpret more adequately modern society, to aid him in tracing and understanding those historical situations which tend to develop tolerance and respect toward people of other lands, to develop an awareness of all sides of federal and international problems, to encourage the student to read current magazines, newspapers, and books, thereby developing his sense of evaluation, and to promote good, all-round citizenship. The courses offered in this department of the Senior High School are: modern and ancient European history, American history, economic citizenship, and advanced social studies. The Social Science Department has carried out several projects during the year, viz., the mapping of the dangerous spots in Medina, the special study of voting at primary and regular elections, the investiga- tion of different occupations, and the tion of a bulletin board on current revious generations, we can p prepara events. l , i GRETA M.

MATHEMATICS Mathematics has been said to be the very key, to civilization. Upon it depend architecture, trade, engineering, navigation, Accuracy, clear thinking, a desire for proof--these are the objectives of the inquiry concerning the value of science in modern life and an appreciation of this value. The department hopes to develop in the student an ability to distinguish between tact and theory, a habit of basing iudgments on fact, the power to make keen observations, and the willingness to change opinions on the basis of new evidence. Students are trained in these aims through class discussion, notebook work, laboratory demonstration, experimentation in a well equipped laboratory, microscopic work, quizzes, and comprehensive tests. The Science Department hopes to help conserve wild life and to develop better health habits, ' thus serving the community in two very important ways. The courses offered are tour: general science, general biology, chemistry, and physics. The Science Club for Junior High School students and the Nature Study Club for tenth, eleventh, and . h. twelfth grades are connected with t is department. math department. The pupil interested in mathematics has the following courses from which to choose in Senior High School: elementary algebra, plane geometry, solid geometry, intermediate algebra, and trig- onometry. The student is given the greatest amount of mathematical training that he desires, and application of this knowledge thus gained to the world of today is stressed. Students who wish to delve more deeply into mathematical problems have the oppor- tunity of joining the Mathematics or Slide Rule Club, which studies in detail the slide rule and engineering methods and whose twenty-five members try to solve difficult mathematical riddles. With the aid, of the slide rule calculation may be quickly and accurately made. ln the field of higher mathematics special study is given to the future problems of the student who expects to major in math at college or to attend a technical school.

The physician frequently inspects the school environment in order that the students individual p may be kept in the most healthful atmos- phere possible while in school. Once yearly each pupi System is given an opportunity to have his teeth examined and cleaned by a dental hygienist employed by the school. Guidance clinics are conducted for those The Health Department also checks on pupils absent from school because of illness, thereby helping to avoid the spread of disease, More direct health training, however, is given through the gymnasium department, which offers regular gymnastics, corrective exercises, and extra-curricular athletic activities, which not only serve to build strong muscles and healthy bodies, but also strive to promote good sportsmanship in the intramural and interscholastic sports I in the Medina having problems of adjustment. which it sponsors throughout the year. The Industrial Arts Department offers a wide variety of subjects to the pupil manual training: mechanical drawing, woodworking, printing, bookbind- ing, auto mechanics, electricity, and metal work. Through these subjects, according to the New York State Industrial Arts syllabus, it is hoped to motivate an interest in and create knowledge about the principal fields of industry and the educational and occupational opportunity related thereto, to develop manual ability in the use of common tools, to increase knowledge of industrial products and processes, to provide an opportunity for creative expression through the medium of tools and materials, and to explore the boys' inclinations, inter- ests and abilities in occupational pursuits, The printing classes print weekly about 950 copies of the M.H.S. News, besides programs, tickets, and schedules for other departments, while other industrial classes have repaired and constructed numerous articlesof school property. Special training is given also in the care and repair of interested in machines. For the eighth grade Open House, the Industrial Arts Department prepared a special bulletin board display showing the proiects mastered by students in wood- working and general metals.

The former offers courses in first and second year shorthand and typewriting. Shorthand trains the pupil to take dictation ' d d with dexterity at a good rate of spee an to transcribe shorthand dictation skillfully on the typewriter. T ewriting endeavors to develop in the YP student the ability to copy with the greatest precision and to use good English and cor- ' ' him for rect spelling, thereby preparing b tter secretarial positions. The business e administration courses include introduction to business, bookkeeping l and ll, business law, and business arithmetic. ln this . .d department, business terms are clarifie , the pupil is taught to keep methodical records, and is given an accurate idea of the important relations between the busi- ness and the social worlds.

Parallel to the activities of the regular h' h classes are the Home Economics Clubs, w ic endeavor to create an interest in the various ' ' ' out- homemaking fields, through discussion, side reading, and experimentation in a most modern and efficient kitchen. CHREERS MUSI C. Music holds a very high place in train- ing individuals to be intelligent, industrious, useful, and happy members of society. Through it, there is developed a balance between the intellect and the emotions, providing a wonderful outlet for those emotions which make one human. The Music Department strives to make each, student aware of the enjoyment and cultural value of cooperation with others in singing and playing activities. The High School chorus has in the last three years established the custom of presenting a program of Christmas music. Other classes of the Music Department, including those in Rudiments of Music, Harmony l, and Harmony ll, have arranged songs for different voice groups, set poetry to music, and composed short pieces. Medina High School, realizing the great benefits to be derived from musical educa- tion, has organized glee clubs, mixed choruses, a band, an orchestra, and a iazz band. These musical groups, besides hold- ing their own concerts, have been a valuable asset to the dances, dramatic performances, assemblies, and community events. ART The Art Department aims to develop creative ability, to increase hand skill, and to secure a coordination of mental processes, which will in turn raise the standard of art in industry, the community and the home. Thus, the individual may acquire a com- mand of the different mediums of expres- sion, an accurate and increased power of observation, and a happy enrichment of life through an appreciation of beauty everywhere. Courses offered in this depart- ment include Design l, ll, lll, lV, V, Vl, and lX, and Representation l, ll, lll, and V. The art students make the illustrations for both the spring and the fall issues of Scribblers, which include pen and ink drawings, spatter work, and block prints. Each spring the more advanced pupils present a marionette show. Thus, these students have an excellent opportunity to demonstrate their creative ability in the script, in scenery, clothes, stage properties, and operation. Those who have earned at least two art credits are eligible bership in the Senior Art Club. Senior High School 4 i i - ETHEL STROMBF-RG KATHARINF. F.

Results indicate that the average of honor points for those participating in one or more club is much higher than that of those who are members of no club. The Council offered a prize of 55.00 to the club which had the best bulletin board display for the year. lt made arrangements also to pro- vide two sections or weekly meetings for the exceptionally large or active clubs.

This committee meets during the Activi- ties Period on Fridays. TIOII ASSEMBLIES, COLLEGE DAY, HONORS CONVOCATION, COMMENCEMENT HONORS CONVOCATION The purpose of the Honors Convocation is to reward those who in any way during the year have been outstanding in their service to the school. This includes citizen- ship, scholarship, attendance, athletics, dramatics, literary contributions, journalism, club activities, and the various prize awards. ln recognition of this service each honored student is awarded a certificate telling for what the pupil is being honored, bearing the signature of the Superintendent and the President of the Board of Education. As approximately one hundred students are honored each year, each organization is limited in the students it wishes honored, to a certain per cent of its total membership. The convocation encourages the student to do better not only in extra-curricular but also in curricular work as no student can be honored who does not maintain at least a C average. The highlights of this year's Honors Con- vocation program, the fourth since its organ- ization, was an address by James M. Spin- ning, Superintendent of Rochester Public Schools. COLLEGE DAY The obvious success of College Day, observed this year for the first time in M. H. S., assures the continuance of this advantageous plan. On Wednesday, March 22, nineteen men and women from fourteen different institu- tions of higher education came to Medina to participate in this program, After a short assembly held at one o'clock for juniors, seniors, and post-graduates, in which each representative gave a short talk on his school, the students spent the remainder of the afternoon conferring with those persons in whose colleges they were particularly interested. Approximately two hundred such conferences were held. The schools taking part were: Brockport State Normal, Bryant C1 Stratton Business College, Buffalo State Teachers' College, Eleanor School of Beauty Culture, Fredonia State Normal, Keuka College, Millard Fill- more Hospital, Morrisville State School, Rochester Mechanics lnstitute, University of Buffalo, University of Michigan, and the University of Rochester. The fields of interest covered were: agri- culture, applied art, auto mechanics, beauty culture, business, chemistry, construction, dental hygiene, dentistry, electricity, home electricity, economics, law, liberal arts, mechanics, medicine, music, nursing, phar- macy, photography, physical education, pub- lishing and printing, retailing, social work, teaching, and watch making and repairing. ASSEMBLIES This year eight assemblies employing outside talent were enjoyed by the students of M. H. S. Russell Hoogerhyde, five times National Archery Champion, displayed his amazing skill while telling the history of archery. Betty Robinson, the typical Ameri- can girl, related her experiences in the participation in and the winning of two Olympics in running and relays. Dr. Frank Sayers left everyone thinking hard about the vital question, Are You a Thoroughbred? Donald Scott-Morrison, pianist, gave a con- versational concert on How Music and Dancing Arrived Hand in Hand. The radio technician on Byrd's second Antarctic expedition, Amory Waite, told thrilling tales of his adventures. Harry White, an electri- cian, showed the wonders of electricity. Frank P. Johnson spoke encouragingly on Brand-New Jobs for Brand-New Workers. Lastly, Spooks and Frauds consisted of tricks of magic which were first performed arid then exposed. Equally well enjoyed were student pre- sented assemblies. Some of these were sponsored by various clubs, others were arranged and directed by Mrs. Hinckley. Every assembly presented this year was educational and entertaining. COMMENCEMENT There are one hundred and thirteen seniors in the class of l939 in comparison with the ninety-three who received their diplomas last year. The Commencement program of l938 featured the following student addresses: Motors in Tune, Howard Lacy, What Men Live By, Ruth Pritchard, Social Security, Harry Remde, Jr., and What ls a Man Profited? Elizabeth Olmsted. Of the entire senior class, nineteen were members of the Arista Society, six were National Honor Society Members, and ten received class honors. Following the presentation of diplomas by the President of the Board of Education, Edward O'Reilly, the class of l938 expressed its farewell to M. H. S. by singing the Alma Mater. The ten highest honor students for I939 are: Andrew Ellicott Donald Garrett Charles Klumpp Madlyn McGinn Elizabeth Montgomery John Shoemaker Virginia Vail David Wasnock Margaret Jane Whittleton Helen May Youles VEDTURES HUD PIDVEUTURES I9 Don and Virginia Sharman, J., .---., Sharman, R., Ellicott, A., Webber, A., - lk r' Blackburn, Brazer l-logan, J., Wa e , Ainslie, Vail, Ross, D., Tucker MIRROR . . . .Editor-in-Chief Editor Manager . . .

With this as an inspiration the staff is attempting to make the V939 edition the best ever published by Medina High School. The obiect of this publication is to present to the students of the school a complete record of the year's events. ln compiling and publishing such a yearbook, not only training in writing, editing, and planning is given but also the opportunity of making business contacts and gaining business experience. The Mirror is a member of the Western New York interscholastic and the Empire State Press Associations. THROUGH THE onald Ross .... S. NEWS . ....
