H. S. life-a life known and enjoyed only by the student-a life vivid with reality. And if, perchance, at some time during future strife, you can recall one friend-one face-one tiny scene, it matters not how small, our efforts have not been in vain. FOREWORD DEDICATION We, as Seniors, who, for the past three years have had the opportunity of being participants in the activities and studies of Middletown High School, wish to dedicate this Optimist to one who because of- his willingness to serve, his ability to supervise, his aptitude to understand, and his zeal to cooperate has, to the greatest extent, made our high school days memorable to all of us. Therefore, we wish to express our heartfelt gratitude and appreciation to the one and only WADE E.

Members of the class of 1937, this is a high standard, and yet so easily within your reach. May it be yours -yours to enjoy the proper prospective. May it enrich your daily toil, and brighten your pathway all through life. W'HllP E. Miller WADE E. MILLER, Prmclpal B. A., Heidelberg' M.

Columbia ENGLISH CHEMISTRY TRUE FRIENDSHIP NEVER KNOWS DECAY.-ANON. PAGE GIF RIAN B urray Our teachers have in these three years Given to us their all, We try now to reciprocate With gifts though they are small. We wish for Thelma Clevenger A happy married life, A hint-don't buy a rolling pin It's sure to end in strife. Discretion we give to Mr. Copp, Although he's a dandy fellerg But he's stomping a hole in the floor of our stage And some day he'll fall in the cellar. To Barr we give some column names For the Middletonian staff, And we sympathize with the writers Who try hard but can't get a laugh. To Chalfin and Rodewig a horse we give A bronco packing a brand, They break him-for they ride anything From Sparkplug to Twenty Grand. We'd also like to see them race On the track at Churchill Downs, Or steeplechase-or ride in a show Or follow the hunting hounds. To Miss Powell we give a rowboat To quell her travel lust, And this motto with the craft we add, Around the world or bustf, We think Dot Wilson ought to get A pierce from Cupid's dart, But she doesn't seem to want a thing Except her work in art. To Betty Wilson we would give A cosy bungalowg If she kept house, we'd know if she Could really cook and sew. To Mr. Reichbauer we give a brush For he's painting his room at the Y He's also a potential wrestler we hear, His grip has made many men cry. To Miss Hartman we give some outlines Of history hard and tall, The same kind that makes her students see Pink elephants on the wall. To Mr. Greene the ideal gift Would probably consist Of adding one more offspring To the ever growing list. To Miss Maier we give a little pen All painted bright and trim, Her pupils know what it is for- To keep her ulack Rabbitsw in. To Coach Lingrel we give some laurels Of the coach crop he's the cream, For out of his rookies each autumn Comes a winning football team. To Winkelman we give a book Itis quite a thrilling tale, But itis nothing compared to his blood- curdling yarns Which turn the whole class pale. To Miss Buschemeyer we give more power Her plays are really quite keen, For there certainly isn't a one of us Who's forgotten her-Seventeen. To Miss Easton weid like to present A bit of hilarity, For when she's around other people Sheis as quiet as she can be. To Ellison we give new jokes His own have gone to grassy For if he keeps pulling the same old stuff, Thereill be a revolt in his class. Miss McCray as you can see Has this year-book stuff down pat, So we'll just add a word of praise And let it go at that. To Mr. Maffett we present Some pills to make him tall, For students say 6'Hi, Sonny Boy As they pass him in the hall. For Mr. Schulz we have a surprise A machine he can set by the door, It will jerk the hat off any boy's skull And throw it down hard on the floor. We wish that Mr. McCandlish Would trade his cap for a hat, But if we asked him-he'd probably say, All right-Iill grant you that. To Miss Shuman we give a microscope So she can find fleas and bugs, For she already knows of her students' affairs From their work to their living room rugs. We understand that Miss Barkley To formal affairs likes to go, So we give her some social functions She'll sure be the hit of the show. We can't find a thing for Miss Rouclebush, She's got us up a tree, There's nothing that could help her teach Deutsch-more efliciently. We'd like to give to Gertie Price Something to dull her wit, Any student, who's verbally battled her, says, She's got me licked-I quit. We give to Harland Shaw a bed So he can sleep in classg We hear that in this drowsy sport, No one can him surpass. To Harold Draut we give a Lab. Where with science he can play, But always call salt, chloride, sir, More technical shall we say. To Miss Hammond we give a host of friends At Middletown Senior High, With her personality she's bound to rise Her limit may well be the sky. We give to Mabel Eldridge Success in her debates, She's climbed success' ladder Through her admirable traits. PAGE 15 PAGE lf? To Miss Banker we give a happy smile Her face is quite glum as a rule, But we hear from various sources that She's a real sport out of school. To Fay we give a tennis ball Some strokes are hard-some soft, And every ball her racquet hits Has its cover peeled right off. To Mr. Neel we give a bat At baseball he's a whiz, We hear that in his younger days He ranked high up with Diz. To Mr. Pierson we now give A brand new boy scout suit, A knapsack and a bugle bright On which to blow toot-toot. To Eleanor weid like to give A sturdy crew of seven, To scoop from 209's broad floor The pennies dropped from heavenf' To Miss McDermott we present The queenship of the grange, And now the kingship of the grange We give to Raberding, Give him a pitch-fork and some hay And he can't help but sing. To Mr. Evans we would give A large electric bus, His score of kiddies crowd his Ford And often make him cuss. To Mr. McMillan we present A grassy frog-filled creek, Then he can throw out his pickled pals That make his pupils sick. To you now, Miss Jacoby, The youngster of the crowd, We wish success and happiness, We sing your plaudits loud. To Miss Hoover a husband we're bound to give We're sure she'd be true blue. We can see her in church mid the or0fan's refrain D Carrying flowers and saying I dof' To Mr. Miller we now give An opening speech that's new, For all she needs is a straw hat and cow Each Wednesday on the stage he says, And a home far out on the range.

Little need be said about its beauty and quality it speaks for itself. The publication of this book was made possible by the hard work and cooperation of the entm taff. The most sincere thanks of the staff go to Miss McCray, the adviser, who was always ready and 1 rore than willing to lend a helping hand when help was needed. It was she who kept our spirits hiffli bpecial mention should go to the advertising agents who brought home the ads and the Hdough W ilute the typists for the excellent work they did and especially for the patience they showed. And last but not least, we thank the home room agents who, during campaign week, boosted the sales of the Uptimist to great heights. During this week eight home rooms-102, 105, 206, 210, 21-L, 215, 301 101 were 1009? perfect in their sales. The home room agents are: 101 Carroll Wright 103 Gerry Huntsbargrer 104 Calla Lucille Little 105 Angelo Amatulli 109 Louis Waldner 112 Mary Maurer 113 Maryanna Kronborg 114 Ballard Garrett 115 Elsie Morris 116 Paul Shulaw 117 Lyman Kingsbury 119 Mary Christman 201 202 203 204 205 206 209 210 213 214 215 216 217 Allen Lehmkuhl Robert Dell Pauline Wills Bob Keffer Wanda Miller Robert Balser William Alfrey Herbert Mye1's John Harkrader Don Davis Bob Gade Ruth Crowe Herbert Seelbrede 219 301 302 304 305 306 310 312 313 316 317 Bill Young Betty Lou Smith Billy Millan Martha Chamberlain Harold Hauselman Bob Ligfett Lucy Long Wilbur Hodge Eloise Hughes Sam Elam Mary Murphy MIDDLETON IAN If medals were given for hard work and untiring efforts, a large, gold one would assuredly be presented to the Middletonian Stall, bearing the inscription Cum Laude. So unceasingly have they striven to attain their lofty aim of better news for more readersi' that they deserve to be mentioned at the top of the list of major activities of Middletown High School. It is believed that by means of several new features just introduced in the paper this year, the staff has attained such worthy recognition. Perhaps the most outstanding column of popular interest has been the Kid Spy write-up. With a nose for news and an ear for gossip, this watchful creature pervaded the halls of M. H. S., disguised by the cloak of humanity. So successfully did it peer into the dark. corners of hidden secrets that the dirt', thus collected was made to colorfully bedeck the cheeks of many. This creature was also well- known as a counsellor and adviser of the love-lorn. With an experienced background of beneficial knowledge collected through years of research, it gave wise and helpful advice to those in need. Another new feature of the Middletonian this year was the column entitled Palaver. Throughout the entire year humor ruled in these articles as in no others and it was often referred to by the students as good stuff. With true meaning, its editor should be saluted for extraordinary creative ability. The foremost regular columns were those occasioned by the sports writers with accurate news of the ames. It was with renewed fervor that the readers relived the combats, lor in in victor ', 8 8 Y S 5 sympathetic in defeat. The ad men, too, outdid themselves with new efforts to gain the most ads ever for their school paper. Their excellent results proved of real value not only to the Middletonian, but to the merchants of Middletown as well. Q And so, through the cooperation of editors, reporters, ad men, and all other members of the stalf, the most interesting and outstanding Middletonian, ever known to the high school, has been produced.

It might have been called Missing-One Link!,' for most of us while rehearsing were half-crazy off-stage and wholly so when on-stage for vice-versa, we still are not surej. Chosen for its hilarious nonsense, it proved a veritable tired business man's relaxation in that it brought an evening of laughs with nothing to carry home to disturb your sleep afterwards. Two respectable UD young men, Roderic Du Chemin and Carleton Clark, promoting a gold-finding machine, find that they are being sought by the police for swindling innocent fand supposedly sanej investors.

Everybody gets his money that deserves to, everybody goes to jail that deserves to, and everybody gets married that deserves to tj at least, that final curtain looked like itjl . The cast prepared the play speedily in fine fashion, and all deserve much commendation for their rendition of their roles. Sometimes the more humorous the character, the more difficult it is to portray. Much was added to the characters as given, from Clarence's stutter to Carleton's foot-ease. Altogether it was a mad, glad evening, and we all had fun doing and seeing the play. HA little nonsense now and then is relished by the best of men. PURPLE MASQUERS i Purple Masquers began their season with a jolly initiation at the Klyd Inn with the Alumni of 1936 presiding over the ceremonies. The club presented several assembly plays during the year. Bob Renick and Betty Lou Smith are to be congratulated on their work in Fiat Lux . Honors also go to Frances Nickell, Lorraine Johnson, Andy Dobrozsi, and Bob Ritter for their presentation of The linicorn and the Fishw. Lorraine Ratliffe, Peggy Asbury, and Almeda Witherspoon did excellent work together with the Junior Club in 6'Mimi Lights the Candlei' presented before the Business and Profes- sional Women's Club and the University Club. Each member of the club was cast in at least one play presented at joint club meetings and should be commended for the excellent way in which the part assigned was portrayed. Numerous social events throughout the year added to the success of the club. We wish to bestow special praise upon Miss Powell who has so capably guided the club along its dramatic journey. SOCC AND BUSKIN The initiation of the Socc and Buskin Junior Dramatic Club in the fall opened the year for this organization. The members were initiated by officers of the club of the preceding year when the meaning and the purpose of the club were explained to each member. During the year some very good plays were given. 4'At the Stroke of Twelve which was a Hallowe'en play, showed the humor of Georgialou Cline as the colored mammy, and the ability of the love making of Annalou Banker and Jack Wilmer. Another exceptionally good production was 'bln May with Junev. We didn't know we had such a granny until Barbara Lou Hayes played the part with much success. This cast also included Mary K. Patton, Blondina Ellison, and Allen Lehmkuhl. Barbara Hawkes, Betty Jane Maze, Lucy Long, Hart Graff, Jane Storer, and Sarabelle Dennis represented the Juniors in the play Mimi Lights the Candle , directed by Miss Clevenger. This was presented before 200 club women of the city who sincerely appreciated the efforts of these actors and actresses. The year closed with the exceptionally fine presentation of the play, Big Hearted Herberti' in which Miss Clevenger again showed her extraordinary ability in directing plays. YE MERRIE J ESTERS Action in the Sophomore Dramatic Club began this year when the Socc and Buskin gave a formal initiation for the lower classmen. With sucha lively send-off as this, Ye Merrie Jesters proceeded enroute to fame via the stage. Their first hit of real importance was The Patsyv which provided rollicking entertainment for the audience. They likewise proved themselves to be of real merit on assembly programs and on various other occasions. ln the chapel play Who Gets the Car will you ever forget the only too well known argument in the happy t?J family composed of Dean Flanders, Carroll Wright, Gordon Hughes and Bette Hur? Of course, as usual the garage man won. Then in the popular play Who Kissed Barbara the Dra- matic Clubs were kept in breathless suspense wondering about that wordn, peppermints, and a dress suit. Remember the wager! Mary Maurer, Helen Wilson, Billy Neuenswander, Richard Koeppel, and Junior McEvoy won new laurels for themselves as the future heroes and heroines of M. H. S. plays. As a fitting termination for the year of activity, Ye Merrie Jesters celebrated with a party that was as full of animated spirit and fun as were all previous efforts of the group. Miss Buschemeyer, as director, has won the admiration of all the club members and the heartiest congratulations of the entire student body on the success of her plays. PAGE 72 MISSING---ONE PAIR!

Betty Lou Timmons, John Gillespie Dorothy Vernon of Haddon Hall by Paul Kester is a stirring romance. Against a background of green walled gardens, velvet hangings and high tower windows of blue and crimson, the brilliantly costumed knights, knaves, and ladies of Queen Elizabeth's merry England pursue their chivalrous way of love and intrigue. The part of temperamental Dorothy, fiery alike in love and hate, was strikingly played by our Luella, who could turn men's hearts clear over one moment and the next moment sling pies with fiendish aim. What a contrast to this gaiety was the sad loveliness of Mary, Queen of Scots flnez Coadl, who won the loyalty of all by her bravery and her beauty. Again we have the superb Elizabeth fClaryce Hornel , one moment a laughable old fool, the next the stately queen whose very glance spelled fear to those it fell upon. Nor was there lack of manly pulchritude in our dashing hero tEdward Blairj of manly courage and stout-hearted loving. Then there were the loyal jester tlilrnest Hudsonl, the fussy old father fliobert Nolesl, of manly humor, and-alas and alack-both feminine and masculine villainy in the persons of that knave of knaves CKarl Davisj and his mother fMary Schirml. Stoutly backing the two queens were their loyal lords Hack Meeker at Mary's side, and Dale Schulz ever at Elizabeth's beck and calll, and their faithful servants, Lady Dorothy's clever maid fMargaret Sheral and the valiant Captain of the Guards fMatt Combsl . Too long a time, indeed, 'twould take to tell of all the goodly company of maids and men and stout protectors who rallied to the call of lords and ladies for help or for amusement. Those were the days. We suffered, bled, and wanted to die many a time during rehearsals and on crew, but those who stayed were stout souls who believed in seeing a thing through. Yes, we fought, bled, and nearly died but in the end, we conquered, and when we heard the welcome cry, Well- done, somehow, to us, it meant more than a small task easily finished. And those of us who had borne the brunt of it together knew our friends.

The story concerns Patricia Harrington, a girl who runs second to her older sister, Grace, a sophis- ticated young lady who is determined to marry. Patricia is the patsy who is blamed whenever anything goes wrong, and is forced to remain in the background in order that her sister may be presented to advantage. Patsy, who is in love with Grace's former love, Tony Anderson, tries to become more popular by repeating Mwise and witty sayings found in an advertisement. In order to win a silver loving cup, Patricia resorts to cheating, which she later confesses, much to the dismay of the family. Grace, inclined to be quarrelsome, argues with Billy Caldwell, her fiance, over Sadie Buchanon, thus breaking their engagement. This episode is blamed on Patricia for her witlessness in confessing to cheating. Meanwhile, Pat, who is taking love lessons from Tony, wins his affections and is sublimely happy until Grace announces her intention of marrying Tony since she is no longer engaged to Billy. Grace and her neurotic mother threaten Pat, but Pop, a traveling salesman, is on her side. He finally declares his independence by putting Ma in her proper place. This brings about Patsy's ultimate triumph, and, needless to say, affords her happiness as the bride of the man she loves. Of course, Billy and Grace wipe away the quarrelsome tears and decide to marry immediately. Who will forget the flood of January, 1937? Likewise, who will forget Patsy's Don't cry over spilt milk and Tony's love lessons!

Marilyn Gillespie DIRECTOR, Miss Thelma Clevenger Backstage: Bud Eaton, Jim Keister, Jack Morningstar, Helen Guess, Marjorie Jacoby, Larry Booher, Mary Kash On Friday, April 9, an appreciative audience rocked with laughter at the charming, hilariously funny play, Big Hearted Herbertn, presented bythe Junior Class. Beloved of the people to whom family life is the only life worth living, homespun and folksy7', a human comedy of laughter and inseparable tears, it succeeded in winning the approval and laughter of a very friendly audience. Even the soberest of the spectators forgot their dignity and abandoned themselves to shameless smiles. The theme of the play is universal. Everyone has seen or met somewhere a man of the big hearted Herbertw type, and longed to hold the mirror of reality before him. Herbert is a self-made business man who has risen from humble beginnings. He went to work in a grocery store at the age of ten, worked extra hours on a paper route, and was brought up on cornmeal mush! He prides himself on being a plain man and insists that his family be brought up in the plain traditions. In the living room he keeps conspicuously present a hideous old crayon portrait of Grandpa Kalness, and a big brass cuspidor, as symbols of his plain qualities. He storms, he fumes, he threatens, and chants HWaste not, want notw, from morning till night. His devoted and charming wife, who loves his virtues and smooths over his faults, has modernized and decorated their home quite successfullyg albeit she has never been able to banish the awful chromo, nor the big brass cuspidor. When his daughter becomes engaged to a Harvard man, and his wife has not only ice cream and salted nuts but Harvard men to dinner, Herbert has a great big tantrum which even his wife can't excuse. So, the next day, when he proposes to bring his best customer and wife home to dinner-assuring them that he is a plain man-his wife embraces his plain tradition literally. She turns the house plain to the nth degree and serves them a plain dinner in the plainest of ways. In a final riotous scene, the sight of his wife in an old wrapper and a supper of Irish stew and apple pie, make Herbert realize he is not so plain, and that life will be happier if he is more of a father and less of a tyrant. Echoes of I wanna bananav, the strains of Whois Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf , and Waste Not, Want Not , the old chromo of Grandpa Kalness, the old-fashioned dinner of Irish stew, the big brass cuspidor, and those Saturdays with hammer and saw, will long be cherished memories of the cast and crew. PAGE 78 BAND Thousands of hearts thrilled to the beat of the drums and the sound of marching feet as the Middletown High School Band passed by. But this year, as never before, the musicians walked in martial step with heads held a little higher than usual and with a look of pride written upon their faces, and rightly so, for the new uniforms were the pride and joy of all the citizens in Middletown. Displaying the royal colors of the high school, this sight was one which left a lasting impression on the memories of all who saw. But in addition to presenting such an excellent appearance, the Band performed another mission, far greater in actual service than this: namely, of inspiring the fans with unrivaled support of their team, and the team itself with a renewed sense of courage and confidence. It is too much to assume that all the merits of the Band could be contained in one short article of praise, but the feelings of all who are familiar with its sight go out in hearty gratitude to the members of this fine and outstanding organization. ' ORCHESTRA The soft and melodious strains which issued forth from the music room each Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday, were the results of the efforts of the talented musicians who comprised the orchestra. Although the orchestra appeared less frequently before the public than did many other organi- zations, those rare occasions on which it did perform were hailed by everyone with eagerness and joyful expectation. Nor was such anticipation disappointed at any time, for in a skillful and experi- enced manner, beautiful melodies were produced which will linger long in many memories. It was therefore with a spirit of gratitude that the student body, together with many outsiders, joined in worthy praise on these popular occasions and looked forward to the next appearance with increasing pleasure. So did the orchestra pass away another fruitful year of outstanding musical success. OUR LINCOLN A very lovely concert was presented by the Glee Clubs, Chorus, and Band in the auditorium of the High School on March 2. ln commemoration of a very noble statesman, Abraham Lincoln, the Clee Clubs and Chorus. under the leadership of Mr. Copp, sang Our Lincoln . As the lights of the house were dimmed, the atmosphere was changed by the bright lights and shadows which played on a bust of Honest Abe at the right of the stage. While the scenery was being changed for the Band Concert, popular songs were flashed upon the screen and community singing was led by Mr. Copp. Hazel Crawford, who is always in popular demand in music circles, played on the marimba, '4Santa Lucian and 6'Son of My Soul just before the curtain rose again on the colorful picture of the Band in full uniform. They played a number of well chosen selections, but probably the one best remembered was Meet the Bandn when each section of instruments arose thus introducing themselves and instruments. Indian music, martial music, and popular music all had a part in making this program one of real enjoyment. PAGE 79 -I an liluini Tl V .

At Christmas time they joined the Boys' Club and sang Christmas Carols on the streets, thus bringing cheer and happiness to others. The strains o On the Road to lVlandalay . Hie Away , In Our Light Canoe , I Passed By Your Window . and L'Chapel ln the lVloonlight can be heard coming from 302 when this crowd assembles. Although the Boys' Clee Club is not quite so large, it is one of real quality. These boys enjoy appearing in public places other than school, especially when dinner is included such as at the Masonic Banquet. Some of their favorite selections are Battle of Jericho . uliullaby Moon . There ls a Tavern ln Our Town , Song of the Arniyn, and Swing Along . The crowninff achievement of these two clubs was the mresentation of Our Lincoln on March F 2 when they combined with the Chorus and the Band to give lVl. H. S. music lovers a real treat. Mr. Copp is to be congratulated on his excellent success with this talented group of students. Aovisi-:Ia Mr. Herman J. Copp 1'iANIs't' Larry Booher Anvisnn Mr. llcrinan J.

It was with a zeal that remained throughout the year that its members assembled at each meeting to present a varied and interesting musical program. Unusual instruments were studied and heard by the group. and research observations were made into the history of the subject.

During the year the club went on various excursions to Fort Ancient, the Dayton Museum, The Cincinnati Botanical and Zoological Gardens, and many other places of interest. Under the capable leadership of Miss Shuman the girls took many hikes making a study of wild life. Their club work has broadened their interests and helped them to understand more clearly their work in Biology.

Plans were delayed, however, because no room was available for such a purpose. Much credit for the interest shown in this unusual club was due to the splendid cooperation and leadership of the adviser, Mr. McMillan. Trips were made by the boys to Cincinnati Terminal, Cincinnati Museum, Cincinnati Biological and Zoological gardens. A series of five early morning hikes to study birds was made in the Spring and a prize was given to the one who had seen the largest number of birds. At the regular meetings of the club, minerals were discussed and many peeps taken into the microscope.

Several changes were made in our governing body this year. The name was changed from Student Senate to Student Council and Mr. Miller took over the advisership of the organization. After each bi-weekly meeting the delegates reported the action taken by the Council to their respective home rooms. One of the important pieces of work accomplished by the Student Council was the organization of several new clubs. Suggestions of students were discussed at each meeting and followed out as far as was possible. The Council can look back with pride on its work this year, because it has been a year of accomplishment. Mr. Miller is to be praised for his helpful advice and the many suggestions he offered. Vile feel that the Student Council may continue to be a benelicial organization if the student body heartily supports it. Eleanor Achberger Dorothy Arkill Peggy Asbury Mary Ball Norma.

Sophomore clubs were organized which made it possible for new girls to create, main- tain, and extend throughout their school life and community a high standard of Christian character. Meetings were held each week at the Y. M. C. A. at which church attendance was regularly taken and Bible or problem discussions held, led by the members. Two of the speakers which were secured to talk to the girls were Mrs. Neese who talked on Learning to Walkv, and Mr. Herman, a Y. M. C. A. Secretary from India. At Christmas time, the Hi-Y's gave twelve new Bibles to the Garfield Mission and made the children in the Children's Home at Hamilton very happy. Each girl bought one gift which was a special request from the children themselves with money which was raised by selling candy, wrapping paper, and stationery. The girls responded well to the request of city organizations to sell flowers or tags of all sorts, and the Y. M. C. A. World Fellowship Fund was increased by donations from each club. At Thanksgiving, baskets of food and clothing were given to poor families of our High School. Miss McCray was the capable supervisor of all the clubs with a membership of about three hundred girls. Miss Dorothy Wilson, Miss Roudebush, Miss Hammond, and Miss Jacoby were the leaders of the Sophomore Hi-Yis. The Junior clubs were under the leadership of Miss Eldridge, Miss Easton, Miss Elizabeth K. Wilson, and Miss Rodewig. The Senior clubs were supervised by Miss Maier, Miss Hoover, and Miss McCray. The advisory board consisted of Mrs. David Gerber, Mrs. Vance Cribbs, Mrs. Carroll Lewis, and Mrs. E. H. McCandlish.

Many interesting as well as educational discus- sions pertaining to every-day life were held during the year. The Senior Club under the direction of Mr. McMillan, whose patience has been sorely tried during these last three years, believes that its meetings have been successful and unforgetable. The dances, weekly discussions, and initiations will all bring back happy memories in the years to come. The formation of the Junior Boys, Hi-Y, under the leadership of Donald Diver, was enthusi- astically accepted by them. The boys have carried on many interesting discussions this past year. The dances which have been sponsored by this group have added much to the social life of our school. William Wilson and Brack Little have organized two Sophomore Boys, Hi-Y Clubs. William Wilson has charge of the Alpha Chapter, Brack Little, the Beta Chapter. It is their belief that these clubs will prove as successful in their three years of existence as those of their predecessors. During Thanksgiving and Christmas the Hi-Y members donated food which was distributed among families whose happiness would not have been as complete as it was then. The donors also derived much enjoyment and good feeling from this action, and hope it will be continued in the future. Each club was represented by two members and the adviser at the Butler County Hi-Y Council which met at Hamilton. On the fourth of February the Boys, Hi-Y Clubs met at Hamilton Y. M. C. A. where stunt night was held with each group presenting some stunt or play for the entertainment of the others.

Greene. ATHLETIC BOARD The Athletic Board has control of all Athletics in the High School. This does not include thcir work in Physical lfducation. simply the various sports in which students participate in competition with othcr schools. At present this includes Football, Basketball, Track, Tennis, and Golf. The intra-mural program ot' Basketball and Volley Ball games is a part of the school work and plan of Physical lfducation. ln its meetings the Athletic Board considers various ideas which are presented to improve Athlctics. These ideas center about the conditions of thc held or floor, the handling of the crowd, the pricc of admission. the outlitting of the teams, and purchasing of other supplies and paraphernalia necded for the proper conduct of Athletics. The purchase of the Band uniforms this last year was a projcct of this Board. They have underwritten and paid 5h?l.000.00 of the expense of these uniforms. According to thc rules ot' the Ohio High School Athletic Association, the Principal is responsible for the conduct of Athletics. ln Middlctown the Principal shares this responsibility with these other members of thc Board. This guarantees a staple control. a broad viewpoint. and a better general supervision than when too much authority is vested in one individual. The fact that our Athletics havc be-cn conducted on a high plane. and our teams have been so well coached and play so successfully in the various sports all speaks in a complimentary way of the diligence of the various members of this Board to their sevcral duties.

H95 V I f I AQ, iv HMM W1 45 5' W' 'S 'R Eff SHERLEY THOMAS, Guard Playing what had previously been known as an Uunspectacular position , Sherley convinced sports writers, opponents, coaches, and team mates that a guard could mess things up and acquired for lrgimself a position on the All Ohio State Second eam. This honor rates Sherley far above our power to praise his tackling and blocking ability. In behalf of our school and team mates we combine our envies in one great Congratula.tion and pray, along with Coach Lingrel, that more men like Sherley will represent M. H. S. in the future. STEVE SABO, End When it dawns upon one that the number of times an opponent netted' any appreciable yardage at all via the end run came very near being zero, he may then conclude what kind of ends M. H. S. was fortunate in having this year. From Nick Sabo the fans received one of the finest exhibitions of proper defensive tactics by an end that they have beheld in some time. Nicholas managed to get under quite a few passes during the season, thus making him a valuable cog in the Middie passing attack. FRED RICHARDSON, Center Realizing the fact that centers would be scarce this year, Fred lowered his head, gritted his teeth and all fear of a weak spot on the mighty machine was abolished. Red's splendid eye and coordination of muscles resulted in very few bad passes, and his blocking ability was rarely excelled. His greatest performance was seen in the Hamil- ton game when bad passes would have been critical, and lack of bulldog tenacity would have spelled defeat. This great performance, combined with the many fine features of previous games, bring high admiration from every football fan and team mate. JAMES GUTSHALL, Fullback Gutsh has proven definitely that he has what it takes. While a Junior, he was the target of repeated discouraging injuries, which would have caused many a lad, lacking his qualities, to have retired from the game. But Jim came back, as a Senior-and in no unconvincing manner-to cap- ture the varsity fullback berth. Needless to say, he made quite a name for himself in the role of blocking back, where he regularly created an im- pediment to opponents who strived to bring to a close the ground gaining activities of the Middie backs. PAUL FARQUIS, Half back When little Boxy headed down the field pre- ceding the ball carrier and gently placed his stal- wart self be'tween the runner and an aspiring tackler, the latter person realized he had been hit by a Boxcar . And when carrying the ball him- self, Pauly could certainly deliver the goodsg but here his resemblance to such a vehicle expires, due to his habit of dismaying the foe with his uncanny ability of reversing his field. His grid- iron antics did not seem to be affected by his size, but only upheld the saying, Dynamite is often done up in small packages. HAROLD HURSH, Quarterback As possibly one of the deadliest passers ever to don the White and Purple, Cha caused the name Hursh to be feared throughout Southern Ohio, making his graduation this year a happy reality to opponents, but a sad blow to M. H. S. His resources, by no means limited to pigskin tossing, consisted of punting fremember those 80 yard kicks?J, broken field running, and field general- ship of such calibre as hardly to be estimable in PAGE 114 words. Throughout his two years as a Middie regular, his gridiron feats have constantly piled up, until today he is the proud owner of a wonder- ful high school football career. JIM SEXTON, Halfback fCaptainQ In June this deserving lad, following a most enviable high school football career, will graduate with all the honors that can be heaped upon one high school athlete. Together with I-Iursh, he formed one of the best aerial combinations in the state of Ohio, if not the best, and his bucks will long cause opponents to wince every time the name 'Sexton is mentioned to them. That the team he captained be led through an undefeated, untied, unscored upon season, is the finest way we know for Dame Fortune to express her appreciation of his rare ability. BUD CRETORS, Tackle Playing regularly in the place of injured- Leroy Brumfield in the early part of the season, Cretors has established a reputation as an up and coming star. Using his six feet three inches of height and fighting mood to the fullest advantage, he was able to give an excellent account of himself among his more experienced teammates and adversaries. Cretors' presence in the line is always accompanied by his chatter, and his ability to liven up the bus is a feature of trips to foreign fields. DIXIE GOSE, Quarterback Little Dixie Gose is one of those rare combina- tions of speed, power, and deceptiveness. The way he could twist and pry his way through an almost impenetrable mass of opponents, time and again seemingly downed' only to slip from the arms of the would be tackler and continue his goalward procedure, was nothing short of remarkable. Although not classified as a regular, he was a real asset to the team, often being inserted into the contest to strengthen the offense. Fortunately, Dixie is only a Junior and will return next year to keep 4,000 spectators on the edge of their seats. DALE BAILEY, Halfback When Dale tucked that pigskin under his arm and directed his steps toward the last marker, about the only thing opponents could do was to quake in their boots or yell Stop him! Playing regularly in the early engagements in the place of the injured Sexton, Dale had opponents com- pletely under sway with his dazzling speed, time and time again piercing their defense with a dis- tant jaunt. Although later relegated to the bench when the injured player returned, his performance while in there will not be forgotten. JOHN JOHNSON, Tackle John is a representative of the modern era of linemen, the more aggressive type, in contrast to the heavier but cumbersome linemen of the past. Although rather small for the position he held, opponents found him a constant fighter, who never conceded an inch from the opening whistle until the final bark of the gun. His determination was often a source of inspiration to the rest of the team. Through the admirable traits of friendli- ness and sportsmanship he has displayed on every occasion, we have every reason to believe this red- haired youth will certainly succeed. LEROY BRUMFIELD, Tackle First down!! Four yards to go for a touch- down!! Portsmouth ball!! Sock!!! Crash!! Bam!!! Zowie!!! Middletown's ball going the other way with Portsmouth still four yards from our goal line. These words narrate the exciting moment of the Portsmouth game when the opponents were nearer to the Middie goal line than any other time during the entire season, and the exclamatory words present a snarling, vicious right tackle in the act of setting a would'-be scorer down with exactly no gain. Leroy will long be remembered for this act and his determination in every game when the going was tough. RUSSELL WHITLEY, Tackle The great success of our defense this year was someone's ability to stop those fast opponents in off-tackle plays and wide end runs, and this some- one presents himself in the form of Russell Whitley. Russ could handle his two hundred pounds equally as well as his lighter teammates and developed into one of the most aggressive tackles that M. H. S. has had the privilege to see. Difiiculty looms ahead as Coach selects his tackle to fill Russ's place next year. CLYDE DENNIS, End Bearing in mind that an end has a wider variety of functions to perform than any other player on the field, it is no wonder that there aren't very many all-around ends seen in action today. However, in Clyde Dennis the Middies were fortunate in having an end who was just about ideal in every phase of his position. The opposing tackle and backs were fain to look upon his pro- cedures as seriously detrimental to their cause. Aside from his physical qualities, Clyde was always cool and collected even in the toughest conflict and always played a consistent brand of BOB F ORSTER, End Possessing all the requirements of a capable flankman and having put away a year's varsity experience, Forster can well be expected to do big things for the Lingrelites next year. Although not so impressive in size, his ability is not to be doubted' once he's out there giving his version of how an end should react. On the numerous occa- sions when called upon to relieve a regular, he gave a favorable indication of what he will do in the future. ROY LORD, Center Although not a first-string center, Roy saw much service in the course of the season. During the Portsmouth conflict, in which Richardson was forced from the line-up with a leg injury, Lord entered the fray, sharing in the successful attempt of the Middies to prevent the Trojan rally from materializing in a touchdown. Roy was the type of player who was ever cool under the heat of battle, yet was never known to let down . It's athletes like him that every coach would like to have around. ALLEN TREADWAY, Tackle A specialist in the gentle art of singing and relating jokes, and a vicious, determined bone crusher combined in one is a rarity indeed. How- ever, on the '36 football squad such a person pre- sented himself in the form of Bulldog Treadway, who was highly proficient in the task of helping to keep the team in the proper mood. Although not a regular, his bulldog tenacity made his presence felt whenever he entered the fray and should carry him a long way in any game he should take up in the future. BERNARD WILLIS, Fullback Bernard was one of the components of that small, highly capable group of men Coach Lingrel had in reserve, ready for action should one of the regulars falter and constantly keeping those regulars at top speed for fear of losing their positions. Willis was a broken field runner of unusual ability and also possessed adeptness as a football. line plunger. Due to a superiiuity of ball toters, however, he gave way to a better blocker, but during the course of 'the' seas-on he saw consider- able action. VERNON GRIFFITH, Tackle Being the type of player every sports follower admires, Vernon was never heard to resort to utterances of complaint when the going was not what it might have been. But in these instances Griff continued plodding along in his quiet, sportsmanlike manner, producing on each play the best his untiring efforts could afford. Although not a regular, he was acknowledged to be one of the most dependable substitutes on the squad. His faithfulness in reporting for practice will not go unacclaimed. ROBERT BURNETT, Halfback Tootsie was not called upon to display his wares very often this year due to the heavy com- petition featured about the backfield posts, but his two years of varsity service is an excellent indi- cation that he can really produce the goods. De- spite his lack of weight, he was able to disturb opponents through his knack of hard-tackling and blocking. Muggs ' natural ability to escort the pigskin also made him a valuable man to have VENUS MAUPIN, End Venus is the best example we know of an athlete filled to the very brim with fighting spirit, as his red hair will testify, who, being ever anxious to enter the thickest part of things, gives one reminiscences of a tiger when given the chance. Despite lack of weight, Venus saw action in every contest this year keeping the team on its toes by his incessant chatter. Being a Junior, he will be back next year, giving great promise of develop- ing into a stellar performer. ELMER PERRY, Halfback Elmer is a member of that fine crop of Juniors who will be on hand next season to help Coach produce another successful eleven. Performing in the capacity of a backfield man, Perry has dis- played the fine traits of blocking which would bring joy to any coach's heart. His tackling and ball carrying inclinations have also merited much notice, giving rise to the popular belief that this good-natured lad is definitely a comer . ROBERT BILLMAN, Guard Built not dissimilarly to an ox, Bob's maneuvers while on that line were always denoted by one thing, and that was their power. Bob craved work, and when he got it, he reveled in it, blocking and tackling in the best fashion he knew. He was handicapped to some degree through lack of speed, but then there aren't very many persons in exist- ence today who bear similarity to an ox and a deer both. JAMES DILLON, Guard Combining scrappiness with sufficient weight, this boy shows great promise of developing into a classy guard. On all occasions he has also dis- played the real spirit and pluck that serve as the supreme test for a real football player. Although seeing only limited' action during the past season, he is only a Junior and will return next year, a serious threat for one of the guard- positions left open through graduation. HARRY GEBHART, Guard As the guard position was well filled this year, Harry did not see a great deal of action. He was also at a serious disadvantage due to the fact that this was only his second year out for football, since it generally requires two years of experience be- fCOll.t'f'll'll.6d on Page 1461 around.

PAGE 119 MINUTE MEN ADVISER, Mr. Winkelman Tony Agoston Jack Long James Reed Douglas Ball Robert McMahon Marvin Sherron Paul Davis Ray Moore Bill Svorda Robert Ford Edward Murphy Bill Withers Richard Price These boys deserve the name of Minute Men for they are called on at any time to perform some duty which had been forgotten. Whatever the weather, these boys stay with the posts which have been assigned them by Big John Winkelman, their capable leader. During the football season these boys were seen uflittingu about the field making preparations for the big game. They put up ropes, lime the field, perform as linemen, distribute posters, and keep score. Similar duties are performed during the basketball season. Each year the boys volunteer to do the 'Sdirty work for the furthering of the sports. Without the cooperation of these boys many of the conditions, under which the games are played, could not be met. They receive no special recognition for all these servicesg therefore, we should show our appreciation and sincere gratitude. O STUDENT MANAGERS Bob Renick, Bob Murray, Noble Gividen, Frank Myers. Our Student Managers performed their various duties this year with great efficiency and a fine spirit. Theirs is a difficult and sometimes tiring job but they have come through with flying colors. Although many of us often fail to realize it, much of the success of our football team depends upon these faithful lads. O SANDWICH GIRLS ADVISER, Miss Rodewig Mary Gardiner Mabel Storey Virginia Cape Betty Howard Geneva Sroufe Julia Capozzi Alice Schrock Fern Tudor June Eckert Charlotte Schwytzer Hazel Watkins Frances Finkbone Frances Simpson Jean Weyman These were the girls whom everyone welcomed at the football games. In rain, snow, sunshine, sleet -they were always on hand to make the fans comfortable, that is their tummies,'. How they handed out hot dogs, brown giants, and candy to eager out-stretched hands! Many thanks were given to the sandwich girls during exciting and intense moments for having a bar of candy to munch on. Miss Rodewig and her girls received much credit for offering their services so willingly. O CHEERLEADERS John Litsakos, Eileen Ritter, Robert Brown, Almeda Witherspoon These four peppy people have ably directed our cheering sections through the football and basketball seasons. At every game they have produced lusty cheers from the crowd, cheers which helped our valiant boys on to victory. s, Q I W? Q 4!x ,: - ' Q Q , .

Antici- pations prevailed and were not left in despair, for this year our Captain performed for M. H. S. in such a manner that we fear similar sights will be exceedingly difficult to produce. It was Harold's sharp shooting and quick eye that discarded gloom and spelled victory for the Middies on many occa- sions. Long will the memories of the Fairview tournament game bring thrills to those who watched Harold calmly shoot the winning basket from mid floor for the Middies with but thirty seconds to play. No gardenias-no roses-but hearty congratulations. JIM SEXTON, Guard Whether on the gridiron or on the hardwood, Jim was always at home as an outstanding player. As an all-around guard he ranked with the best, for in addition to being a good defensive man, he was high scorer for Middletown in league compe- tition. To give him a set shot near the basket was to concede to Middletown two points. His out- standing achievement was holding Van Orsdol, Norwood ace, who previously had never garnered less than ten points, to a scoreless evening. He was probably the most deceptive passer in the league, possessing the ability as one opponent put it to look one way and throw the other. PAUL SIXT, Guard Although this diminutive Junior member of the team was not able to register as many points as some of the other members, he has created quite a reputation as a basketball player in his role of a smooth, consistent guard. However, the fact that he was capable of accounting for points was illustrated in the tournament clash with Dayton Kiser, in whichlhe deftly hung up six field goals. As for speed, this quiet mannered lad's perform- ance in every tilt has caused many to believe he was the inspiration of the expression, He goes like Sixty. ROBERT SIXT, Center Possessing a will to learn and a determination to succeed, Bob developed fast from a mediocre center to one of the Middies' most valuable men. Although 6 feet, 3 inches himself, he jumped against taller boys and can boast of the feat of outjumping all opponents the majority of time. Besides getting the precious tip-off, Bob held his men to a remarkably low number of points and was by no means considered not dangerous around the basket. Next year?-why he'll be hard to replace. VENUS MAUPIN, Forward In the person of Venus Maupin is another promising Junior, who will be expected to help next year's five surge forth into an illuminated spot in the basketball world. Being continually desirous of action, Veno saw voluntary service with the reserves in the last two games of the season and was instrumental in causing the Ham- ilton reserves, who hitherto had been unbeaten, to suffer defeat. Maupin's frequent entries into the fray were always accompanied by a sudden in- crease in chatter and spirit, and his procedures were characterized as imbued with determination. HARRY MORLATT, Forward Having captained the Seven Mile team the pre- vious year, Harry returned to M. H. S. lacking one year of vital experience in our methods and so was at a great disadvantage. Had it not been for this he possibly would have attained a regular berth for he was a fine defensive man and an accurate passer. During practice sessions he always forced the man, 'to whom he was assigned to watch in scrimmage, to perform at top speed. Thus he proved a valuable factor in the team's success, for as the saying goes, A team will play on Friday like it plays during practice. STEVE SABO, Guard Playing his second year of varsity basketball and having unusual defensive traits, Nick was a fine man to have in reserve and to have around in practice. Through steady practice he developed into an excellent shot and often caused opponents and teammates alike to marvel at his ability to sink them from afar. Although on records Sabo's role in the team's success does not seem to be outstanding since he did not see an excessive amount of action, his teammates will all tell you that Nick certainly contributed his share. PAUL CRETORS, Guard A tall blond with a short haircut, a player of tigerlike attitude? Yessuh, Bud was of that description. And now more about his basketball propensities. He possessed an envious position by being a valuable guard in his Junior year, his rebounding and defensive ability called for looks of bewilderment from opponents, and to top the flattery he inherited a most likable disposition which brought friendship from all who knew him. Next year we'll see a guard position held by this same experienced, still more valuable man. DIXIE GOSE, Forward Disregarding the concept that stature is a chief asset to a basketball player, little Dixie Gose made himself a valuable fixture to the '37 squad and astonished his taller brethren with his tendency of maneuvering about the hardwood in a manner similar to that of a talented jackrabbit. His dependable performance in the many games in which he saw action, particularly in the second Hamilton battle, in which he calmly tossed two free throws through the strings in the closing minutes to knot the count making necessary an overtime period, is one of the reasons why every one has fond hopes of another great team next year.

The Franklin basketeers commenced the string cutting activities and took an early lead, while checking the locals with a puzzling zone defense. Not until the second quarter did the locals begin garnering baskets to any appreciable extent, but they had finally cracked the zone and were only two points behind at the half. In the third quarter they knotted the count and then gradually pulled away from their northern visitors, acquiring a decisive victory. LEBANON Exacting revenge for a 16-15 setback in ari overtime game tendered by the guests from Lebanon the previous year, the locals rode through to an unquestionable win over the Brown and White. Com- pletely outplaying the foe in every department, the lVliddies took control of the affair from the begin- ning and when the final gong sounded, had a 42-15 victory tucked away in the records. Facing an almost airtight defense, the Lebanonites were unable to disturb the hoop, except from afar. ROOSEVELT In the first real test of the season the Middie quintet interlocked horns with the Dayton Roose- velt Five. Heralded by their Gem. City supporters as a cinch to win the state championshipn, the Red attired quintuplets experienced a severe jolt in their vaulting ambitions, undergoing a 29-23 defeat. For three quarters the game was one of close rivalry, however, in the last quarter the Middies forged ahead to cinch a hard earned victory. . ROGER BACON Taking to the road, the Middies went to the home of the Spartans to obtain their fourth sub- jugation. Although enjoying a comfortable lead at the half, the local boys saw their control gradually diminished as the affair became rather rough in nature. To prove they were serious, the Baconites came within three points of the Purple score, however, the final whistle sounded before they could get any closer, and the lVliddies walked away with a 19-16 win. FAIRMOUNT Game number five exposed a Middies defense seldom seen anywhere. Fairmount was limited to five foul shots and not a single field goal. The Middies started their point addition early in the game and led 15 to 4- at the half. The second half proved even more disastrous to Fairmount as they were held to one point. Eight points more were totaled to our fifteen and the game ended 23 to 5.

Obtaining second place in the Southern Ohio Scholastic League Tournament the local golf team, composed of Leo Reinartz, Dick Royse, Frank Myers, and Fred Brown, was not quite able to hbring home the bacon in the true sense of the phrase, but they did bring home an impressive show- ing, giving honor to M. H. S. in another Held of sports. With a score of 334, the local four ranked second only to the Hamilton divot diggers, whom they had outplayed by a wide margin in a previous meeting at Wildwood. In other matches during the season, the Midclie fairway Hends dropped two decisions to the Oxford Steward team, the first by a 75 - 4-W score at Wildwood, the second by a 1116 - 16 engage- ment at Oxford. Leo Beinartz led the local sandtrap evaders in both games. ln another encounter with Hamilton. the Purple quartet finished in a tie with the Blue golfers on Porterls Course. Beinartz again was low for Middletown with a 75, while Myers and Boyse were close behind with a 76 and 77, Brown registering an 80 in his first match. The local par-busters turned back Norwood 8-4 at Norwood with Royse shooting a 77. Myers a 79, Beinartz a 79, and Brown an 85. In the last dual match of the season the local team defeated Hamiltonls links devotees by a wide margin. Reinartz, Myers, Royse, and Sabo figured in the win. With Myers, Sabo, and Brown returning, next year's golfing prospects seem very bright for the Middies. LAUGH AND THE WORLD LAUGHS WITH YOU UMOR D A CAL AR SEPTEMBER 23-Students of M. H.

PHONE 109 Sebald Oil Co. OUR HEROES Our football team is really good It's rough and mean and tough, Our line is good as anyone's Our backfield is the stuff. We'll start out with the sturdy line So strong from left to right, 'Tis filled with boys with fighting hearts It is the line of might. Left end is played by Mighty Nick , 'Tis Sabo who collides With anyone who takes the ball And comes from other sides. Left tackle plays right next to Nick He is a hefty lad, The foe is sad when Whitley plays But Middie fans are glad. A mighty guard is next in line His tackling is severe, He is the mainstay of the line Socks Thomas deserves a chee1'. The center is Fred Richardsovz, This boy we know as Red , Never throws a pass that's bad He is a star, 'tis said. Now Johnson, plays the other guard He plays it very nice, He opens holes for backfield men And through these holes they slice. Right tackle is Roy Brumfield He's big and very strong, And when he stops the foe's trick plays Their offense goes all wrong. A lanky lad is at right end He happens to be Dennis, He plays real hard the whole game through Right up until the finis . We've told you 'bout this Middie line So famed throughout the land, We'll bring to you the backfield now Let's give these boys a hand. Behind the line we have stacked up Four Aces in a row, And when they block and run real hard Right down the field they go. Jim Gutshall is out driving full His blocking is real good, He takes out boys from other sides As good as any could. Elusive Farquis plays right half N' when he takes the ball, He goes 'round end with dazzling speed His gain is never small. Jim Sexton is the captain of This stellar Middie team, He is a boy we all admire As a star his name does beam. The boy we're going to honor now Is Hursh at quarterback, He is a star of every game There's nothing he does lack. Now all these boys are very good They've won their pride and fame, But me-I'm just a waterboy You never hear my name.

They have stormed the citadels of Education, captured Knowledge and Enlightenment. Fear and Ignorance this army has chained and imprisoned. A campaign has been mapped against the great problems that beset a worried world. Armed with Ambition and Inspiration these marching columns throw their force into the onslaught against Work. Wearied campaigners will step aside and cheer them on as they drive to Victory. ' There will be walls to scale, trenches to cross. There will be times when the withering fire from enemy's guns will sweep their ranks. Doubt and Surrender will assail them. But Character will hold them in line and Determination will drive them forward and upward. This class of 1937 knocks at the door of Opportunity. We salute a fine army and quote these lines to guide you in your onward march- 'gAtte1npt the end, and never stand' to doubt, Nothingis so hartl but search will find it ontf, KLEIN'S Showing a Complete Line of Apparel and Accessories for High School Graduates and Under-Classmen YOU'LL FIND The Right Hat me PWM STUDIO OF THE DANCE at the CLARADON Hat Shoppe 1219 Central Avenue An exclusive Studio, devoted to the art of dance in all its phases.

However, through his performance when he was called upon to produce, no one can rightly say he didn't possess the qualities of a dependable guard. MARVIN JONES, Halfback Disregarding the precedent that one should not praise the work of Juniors due to its ill effect on their play next season, we write of this Junior and rest assured Coach will see all he expects from him next yearg for a boy who presents such an attitude and spirit to play as Pete does just can't fall down. BOB FAY, Tackle Bob, although light, was sure dynamite! He was not a regular but he certainly played like one whenever he saw action. He has the fighting spirit that every football player admires. When he was on that line you could depend on him to either make the tackle or come uncomfortably close to doing so. JIM YEARION, Tackle Performing faithfully for two years on the var- sity, Yearion's part in the team's success is not an inconspicuous one, for although not a regular, he supplied the team with rich experience and keen competition in practice. Due to his size he was a difficult man to cope with. PAGE 146 ,.... ' ...-: .--.,. 'i'f'm'3'f' AA , rs Z ' ' .2 -.-. :iS:3:5'P-323: 3:23:21 4-:-:5i:5S:5:3 ,YW ..-' 5?

When I learned that my company has to invest nine thousand dollars to create a job, besides paying good wages and money for maintenance to keep the job going-that opened my eyes.

Not a money fortune, but don't mind that, for money fortunes may be swept away by the winds of chance . . . taken or given by a turn of luck. Yours is a less fickle, a more enduring fortune. Education . . . that is your fortune, the glory of a firm, capacious mind. Augmented by youth and enthusiasm, right living and right thinking, the world is your garden, wherein the seeds of character and industry may flower into riches greater than all the gold possessed by Croesus. Money, locked in a vault, brings little true satisfaction to the possessor thereof. Your education, kept to yourself, will gather only dust . . . eventually fall into decay. The world needs this fortune you hold. lt needs new blood, new thought and the impulse of youth and vision. You hold a definite place in the great plan of life and living. Your service to this plan is limited only by your willingness to assume your share of responsibility, your employment of the knowledge and training received in these early years of life. Chiefly, the mould of a man's fortune is in his own hands. A very wise man has said: 'iLife is not to be bought with heaps of gold. Too many people learn too late the truth of this axiom. More to be sought than material gain is the wealth of a noble character . . . of life enriched by the happiness found in honest work for God and our fellow-men.
