J-C2671 ffnderson When the notice of Jack Anderson's death on January 16, 1938, apt peered in the Canton Repository, there was assuredly, more than on. among his boy friends who thought, 'Jack was a great pal.' Had thi been the only epitaph written for Jack,no words could have express better the feeling which everyone had for him. The members of the junior class, the boys on the football team, thg fellows in the glee club, all who were associated with Jack, knef him as a great pal. There were small grade school boys, too, wh felt an almost hero-adoration for the tall, smiling boy who clappe one of them on the shoulder in a careless, man-to-man fashion, o pulled another's cap down over his eyes with a teasing word or tw For Jack's personality placed no class or social labels on those h' knew, drew no lines between rich or poor,sam no differences betwee age and youth: Jack was just a great pal to everyone. Fortunately, his life was a happy one, because of his own cheerfu disposition, and a full one because of his many activities. He had also, a carefree confidence in the future that seemed to make joy and cares alike rest lightly in his mind. During his illness, h wrote to one of his teachers that he would be'back'm:sehool in tim to take part in his class play, for even as he lay on his hospita bed during the few weeks before his death, his happy-go-lucky spiri was never entirely subdued by physical pain and mental gloom. His funeral was held in New Philadelphia, Ohio, and his pallbearer were, as Jack would have earnestly des1red,members of the Hi-Y Clul to which he belonged.

James Moock holds the honor of being the first child of a graduate to enter school here. He entered Middlebranch school in September, 1937. He is the son of Mrs. Helen L Stanton Moock, the only girl to be a member of the first graduating class. Eleanor B011, graduate of Mlddlebranch High School in 1935, is the first graduate to return to the school as a ea U cl1e F, although several graduates hold teaching positions in other SChOOlS'. TEN YEARS IN REVIEW Tlme flles, or, as the Latlns put lt, 'Tempus fugltl. Ten years may seem like a long tlme, but the past ten years have flown by as swlftly as the shadow on an old sun dial moves from hour to hour. Let us review those ten years. and see the changes they have brought to Mlddlebranch Hlgh School. In the school year 1928'19Z9, the following subjects were taught at Mlddlebranch Hlgh School: French, Latin, English, science, history, mathematics, and home economics. Also included ln the scholastic program were physical education classes and glee clubs. These classes were taught by Margaret Rodgers, Dorthea Eynon, Davld Helm, and E. S. Hawklns, superintendent. Cora Ray was the glee club director. Those who attended school then will remember the slngs held ln what ls now the third grade class room in the grade bulldlng. E. O. Eble was and still ls our capable, efficient Janitor. All classes met ln the present grade bulldlng and the two portable bulldlngs, as the number of students ln this comparatively new high school had not yet neces- sitated the addltlon of another hlgh school bulldlng. The next year, 1929-1950, a commercial department, under Dorothea Eynon, was added to the high school schedule. Typewrlters were purchased and a shorthand class was conducted. Other commercial subjects have been added according to the demand by the students. This year, 1957-1953, typing, shorthand, business Prac- tice, business arithmetic, commercial law, and salesmanshlp were taught. BOOK- keeping ls included on the schedule ln alternating years. Beulah Tyrlng took over the home economics department ln 1929-1950- Another schedule change ln 1929'193O WaS the addlUlOn of 8 manual arts depart' ment under Mr. Norrls, who also handled the same year.

The flrst superintendent ln the new building was Robert L. Roosei David I. Helm was made principal. Carl Mesnard, took charge of the manual arts department. Several clubs were organized at Mlddlebranch during 1931'l932- One of them was the H1'Y Club, then, and now, under the leadership of DaV1d I. Helm. There were SeVen boys in the Club at 1tS flrst meeting. The H1-Y Club of 1957'1958 had .twenty members. Officers were: Marvin president: Dominick white, secretary: Schmucker, president: wllbur Wolfe, vlce and George Block, treasurer. The IMI Club originated in 1931'l932, under Vera Llndower. The club was a glrls' athletic club, members of which were given letters after earning a certain number of points ln athletic actlvltles. one interesting actlvlty of the club was the selection each year of two all-star teams, the Army and Navy. The IMI Club was discontinued after 1954-1935. mln December, 1951, Principal David I. Helm married Clara Edna wearstler, Class Qof 1950 ......

In November, 1952, a public speaking class was organized, with George wise as president.

Such wuccess and advancement during the past ten years can mean only further success n the future. For the success of the past, cooperation on the part of the stu- ents, excellent leadership by the director, the sincere interest of parents and riends, have been responsible: on such cooperation, leadership, and interest ill the future Drove as successful. thletlcs, too, have played an important part in the development of Middlebranch igh School. Although the year 1927 takes us back further than the ten year eriod, it is necessary to say that that was the first year Mlddlebranch parti- ipated in county athletics. That year the boys' basketball team, coached by . S- Hawkins, lost only three games out of twenty during the season, and the girls eam also made a very successful showing. Together they added S200-OO to the chool's athletic fund after season's expenses were paid. n the spring of 1923, the boy's baseball team won the County Championship cup. n 1929, the boys added another cup to Mid-Hi's collection by winning the cham- Ionship of the Stark County Division B Basketball League.

Margaret Rodgers and Dorthea Eynon were directors until the tter's reslgnation In 1931-1952- Since then plays have been under the capable rectlon of Miss Rodgers with Margaret Nathan assisting since 1955. In connection th these radio programs, glee clubs, and mixed chorus have also from time to time esented musical numbers over WHBC Canton. Several classes have contributed useful and beautiful gifts to the school. In February 1932, Pictures of washington were purchased by each class for its home room. The rooms of the school have been beautified by pictures bought by other classes. The Class of 1936 purchased a model of Columbus's ship, the Santa Maria, and the Class of 1957 had an electric clock installed ln the auditorium. Although Middlebranch High School was, ln 1923-1939, actually three years old, the Class of 1929 was really the first to graduate from the four year high scho course. This reveals the interesting fact that those five students in the Clas of 1929 graduated then for the third time, having graduated the first time in 1927 when Middlebranch was made a two-year high school, again in 1923 from the three-year high school, and finally, in 1929 from the four year course. The colors of that first graduating class on their 1923 commencement program were red and black, their flower was the red rose, and their motto was one which was prophetic of the trend the history of our school was to take--HThe end crowns the work.l Following is a paragraph which appeared in the Canton paper in 1927, the high school's first year in county athletics. Hlt is the first year that Plain Township has had a high school and its location in Mlddlebranch in connection with the grade school has been the source of a deep interest in the growth and general welfare of the schools throughout the community. At the present time all the classrooms are ln use and it was said that a plan for more rooms must b arranged to provide for future development.l Today, 1938, those who have attended Middlebranch High School and have taken part in its development, View the extent of its success with pleasure that can come only from the satisfaction of looking back over a Job well done. Further proof of that success is found in the following words, quoted from a letter received by the present superintendent of Mlddlebranch High, William Morris Koh April 14, 1933, from E. N. Dietrich, state director of education, based upon a report by Dr. Raymond Fisher after the latter's routine inspection of the high schools of the Stark County System. Mr. Dietrich said, quote: HThe teaching at this school is far above average. The schedule is well arranged: the depart ments function well. The art work and the music programs are significant. The shop work and home economics deserve commendation. The administration seems to function effectively: the school spirit is characterized by purposefulness and objectivity: the building is well cared for. The Plain Township fhiddlebranchy Sigh Echool is continued on the approved list as a high school of the first gra nquo e. 1 One has only to visit the school to see evidence of that success, to see how wei the end of the first ten years has crowned the work behind lt. The Class of 19 tenth class to graduate from Mlddlebranch High School, expresses sincere hope that the next ten years will prove as successful and as fruitful as the last.

BASKETBALL FIRST ROW: Stephens, Cunningham, Gerome, Capuano, Venditti l SECOND RGW: Coach Hiokman,R1tehey,Menicos,Managers:Zeng1er,B1rcheH The Mag1c's completed their basketball season in a fairly successm fashion this year, winning eight games and losing eleven. Two mai causes for the defeats were lack of height and lack of experience Averaging only five feet, eight inches the team had trouble in con trolling the ball, and the lack of experience gave the breaks fr quently to the opponents. What the team lacked in height and ex perience, they made up in fight. In many instances the games looke lost but the fighting spirit pulled them out of the fire.
