Last year Middletown Schools saw the beginning of a Pupil Personnel Department under the direction of William O. DeVoll. Similar to an in- dustrial personnel office, the schoolls department is concerned with the ad- visement of pupils on personal, social, voca- tional, and placement problems. The pupilis school record, augmented by a psychological testing program extending from grades one through twelve, provides objective data for use dluring confer- ences. , A new Physical Educa- tion, Health, and Safety Program under the direc- tion of Elmo Lingrel was set up to standardize athletic policies tin all our schools, to supervise all Physical Education classes and safety pro- grams, to maintain Health Records on all pupils from kindergarten through high school, to make athletic schedules for all schools and ar- range for ofiicialsg to pur- chase all athletic equip- mentg to consult and work with School Nurses and Medical Adviser on all problems of School Health.

I havenit seen you for . . . why, it must be twenty years, not since we graduated! Youire Fred Schmidt, aren't you?', c'Yes, and hello to you Harold Tanner! Are you in Congress yet? UNO, Iim still a business executive in Cincinnati. Does that sign, W. F. Schmidt, Dentist, belong to you?'7 Yes, indeed! That's my office! Here comes my receptionist, Peggy Walton. We are on our way to the '47 class reunion at dear old M. H. Sf, That's exactly where Ilm going. Darn swell idea, this reunion! By the way, are any of the old gang working for you?', H '6Yes, my nurse is Kathryn Haney, and Ella Mae Hoover is my secretaryf' Shall we hail this cab and hurry over?,, '4Cabby, Middletown High Schoolf' Good, that's where lim going, but I have to pick up my sister, Eleanor, at the Bell Telephone Company first, sheis an operator theref' c'Why, you must be Dorsey Barnett! HSure am! Here comes Sis now! uHello, is there room for ,luanita Neal and Loretta Pergram? They are operators on my shift. Mary Ellen Chippendale, Jenny Karovich, and Dolores Fiscus went home to change clothes, they'll be over later. Since Bonnie King left the switchboard before I did, she should be there. If you wait a minute, Dorsey, Dick Coddington will be out. Heis an electrician here. There he is now! MDO you know what the program is, Ered?'7 4'Not exactly, but I was talking to Joan Davies, head of the nursery school here, she explained it this way. Everyone within a reasonable radius of Middletown will, if possible, come to the High School, where we shall be connected by radio to other reunions throughout the country in cities such as New York and Hollywood. That isn't all! We even expect to hear from some of our graduates in Europe and Alaska? '4Sounds great, and with television as practical as it is today, we might even see some old friends. HA!! out, everyone! Here we are!7' Isn't that Beanz Howard speaking over the mike? Yes, the programs say Fred Howard, Master of Ceremonies. He should be good, he's had so much experience at WLW. Let's listen. Good evening, former classmates. This is Fred Howard. Remember me? Seems like old times gathered once again at M. H. S. Of course, in twenty years there have been many changes. The parking lot, which still houses our heaps of wreckage-beg pardon, auto- mobiles-has been greatly improved through the work of Bill Taylor, Bill Sebald, and Bob Schiering, engineers from the Thomas Hensey Construction Company. I guess we were born twenty years too soon, a swim- ming pool has recently been installed under the fioor of the gymnasium. Those broad smiles on the faces of Riggs Monfort, Robert Arkill, Ronald Blalack, and Eugene Chippen- dale lead us to suspect they were the designers. A huge 'rumpus room, with all electrical work done by Bob Gray, James Perkins, Tom Spisak, and Gordon Lawson has been added where ,Iohn Salmon and his 'make you want to dance' band with Cornetist Dick Bowlin play each noon for those students who would rather dance than eat, though it is hard to imagine anyone not wanting to eat-partie ularly since dietitians Eileen Molloy, .lenny Donisi, and Norma Knight have taken charge. 4'Now letas look over these smiling faces and see how many of us we can remember. There are Larry Kolodzik and Carol Minch. Larry is an important chemical engineer, working with George Kavouras on new in- ventions in plastics, while Carol is teaching Spanish here. Carol wasn't the only one to hear the cry for teachers, for others to enter this noble profession were Martha Gividen at Lincoln School, Francis Sedge, Latin, Sarah Wilson, history, Audrey Scroggins, chemistry, Danna Goodman and Dick Bank- er, speech, Evelyn Matthers, arithmetic, and Irving Rosazza, physical education, -- all teaching at'M. H. S. Verlin Curtis is head of the music department at Oberlin College. We knew the graduates of the class of '47 would really make the world shine with their brilliance. All over the world, either as outstanding personages or just good citi- zens, we find M. H. S. alumni. Enough talk, I know you're anxious to hear about your old pals from points North, South, East, and West. Letis start first with that fabulous, make-believe-land - Hollywood, California, where your announcer will be Nikki Schaef- ferf, CContinued on Page 495 N11 ' + BIIIUQT 18111 JOHN FRANKLIN October 21, 1928 January 15, 1947 If we could put our thoughts in words, This is what we'd say, The grandest guy that ever lived, Has served and passed away. He died that someone else might live, But that was so like John, Ready to give, ready to serve, Ready to help some one along. He had his faults, but don't we all? His intentions were never wrong. Always happy, full of laughs, In his heart was love, on his lips a song. Weill remember him always as our best friend True, unselflsh and kind. Why God called him, we'll never know, For few of his equal here you'll End. His days were full during his short life, A beautiful life now come to an end, But we'll never forget him, he's one of us For he died as he lived, everyone's friend 47 7 1 V 9 4 If X 1 P ig ar in 4 1 'Q fy , !

S. graduates anywhere near are gathered here for this reunion. Even though it meant holding up a new movie, Bob Asher and Howard Manker, leading movie producers, called a day's rest for themselves and their workers: Laurel Abney, stage technician, James Martin, Merritt Lenear, and Bob Dunn, electriciansg Zola McGuire, Wanda Lowe, Virginia Nickell, and Lois Moore, make-up artists, also stenographers, Janet Slough, Bridget Cottle, Imogene Keyser, Kay Allen, Lois Basford, and Stella Axiotes. It is too had that dress designers Betty Colyer and .leanine Fagan couldn't make it, they had to rush an entire wardrobe for the stars, Yvonne Reichter and ,loan Meacham. Perhaps we should seize this opportunity to announce that this broadcast is sponsored by the L'Amour Beauty Parlor owned by Jerry Long and Barbara Newcomb. Charlotte Huy will soothe your sagging chins, Reva Snodgrass and Wanda Tolson will give you the newest hair styles, and Wilma Cassidy gives facials guaranteed to capture any man, any where, any time. llll now ask Caroline Hursh to take over for a whilef, Good morning, all you lovely people! Shall we begin with a tune by our song bird, Barbara Clevenger, with Larry Gosmeyer fea- tured at the piano? Ah, that was really melarooney! Let,s interview some of these nice people. Who are you, sir, and what do you do for a living? My name is Kenneth Highleyg my partner is Nick Demetrion. We own a department store. Our buyers are Doris Reardon, Steve Demetrion, and Dorothy Eiessinger. Incident- ally, our chief sales are raincoats! t'Oh ho! The gentleman has a sense of humor! Sunny California! It could be my imagination, but I do believe there are a few drops of mist coming through the roof. How about some help, Milton Aera? Oh, you say you're a carpenter, not a plumber. Maybe we can get some help from the Gay Bevis Ma- chine Works Company. Bill Barker and Bill Naudin work there, and Gerald Skinner is a draftsman. ':On with the show! Mr. Highley, we forgot you. A delightful surprise is in store for you. You have a date tonight with that charming movie actress, Georgia Kampschaefer, former Powers model, now starring in Duel in the Rain. Tables have been reserved by Elwood Abney and David Dickerson, proprietors of the Mocambo. Now let's all begin this scrumptuous breakfast before you. The radio audience is really missing something. We have peelless, seedless, colorless, land probably tasteless! oranges, the recent development of Bob Beachler, Esther Chaney, and George Koep- pel, working with Gene Whitley. The giant strawberries for the Jewell Woods Cereal Products have been sent via Carl Lansaw's Clipper Service from the billion dollar freez- ing plant of Delbert Horn and Bob Faulkner with the aid of Bob Nickell, Vernon Agee, and Sam Fraley. The eggs are from Leroy Hudson's farm and the milk pasteurized in the cow, from ,loe Seaman's dairy farm. Your coffee comes from Don Dillmanis ranch in Brazil. lncidentally, Bob Flesher and Bob Finney are in South America, too, they own a prosperous gambling house. Folks, we hate to leave you now, but youll! want to hear from New York, so bye, bye. This is Hollywood in Sunny California sign- ing off. Donit forget your umbrellas, ladies!! And now, Vicky Higham in New Yorkf, Take it away, New York! Ladies and gentlemen, this is Vicky Higham broadcasting from the beautiful Sky- light Room of the Waldorf Astoria! As we look around we see that broadway star, Patsy Elliott, currently starring in cTillie's Troubles., Who is that with her? It's Carolyn Roush, the famous Metropolitan Opera star. Sitting next to her are this city's most celebrated fashion designers: Phyllis Coleman, Martha .lane Leight, and Mary Lou Leightg and the famous models, Onda Brewer and Margie Eisele. At the table to our right we see Shirley Proft, Radio City star, with Virginia Phillips, Eileen Tucker, Pat Henderson, and lack Hoover, owners of the Fifth Avenue Phar- macy. c'Look who is coming through the door, it's Dan Kiss, journalist, just back from Washington with his staff of secretaries: Yolanda DiCristoforo, Betty Cowgill, Gerry Mize, and Diane Meeks. How's Washington, Dan? Oh, you have a message from Chuck Belknap, head of the Industrial Relations Board. He regrets to say that because of the strike of the atom workers he and his secre- taries, Betty Lawson and Phyllis Little, can- not be here.

STUDE T CGUNCIL A Student Council delegate and an alternate were elected from the 37 homerooms at t beginning of the school year to meet every two weeks with their advisers, Miss Lamphier and Mr. Minnichg the alternate, attending the meeting if the delagate could not. he The purpose of this organization is to give the students, through their representatives, a chance to voice their opinions for improving the school by promoting activities, realizing priv- ileges and responsibilities of a democratic school-life, and making for more co-operation be- tween the student body and the faculty. The Cabinet acted as the executive committee. Important matters were discussed first in the general meetings and those of major importance were recommended to the Cabinet for ac- tion. The Council met every two weeks on Wednesday and the Cabinet met on alternate Wednesdays. The Cabinet members were: President, Bob Gray, Vice-President, Marvin Monroe' Secretarv, Irene Hodge, Treasurer, Harold Tanner, Sergeant-at-arms, Dick Ross, the advisers' and the chairmen of the following committees: Handbook, Caroline Hursh, Sports, Don Corneleg Clubs, Peggy Martin, Social, Jeanne Newton, Scholarship, Chester Cot- tongimg and Miscellaneous, Pat Bowling. The Student Council has as its special project this year the purchase and erection of a ame la ue in honor of all M H S students who died in the service of their country in n p q . . . World War H. The money is being raised through the collection of sales tax stamps by all the students. Also to its credit was the sponsorship of an all-student dance held in April, and the printing and distributing of M. H. S. handbooks. 64 Seated: Frances Sedge, William Saun- ders, Delores Thorn, Elwood Abney, Caro- line Hursh, Paul Hoover, Victoria Higham.

NATIO AL HO OR SOCIETY Sixteen proud seniors met with Mr. Baker and the faculty advisers on October 9, 1946, to be of- ficially taken into the National Honor Society as the first group chosen in the 1947 graduating class. At this meeting they learned that although they must be in the upper one-third of their class, there are requirements other than scholastic stand- ing. Also considered are leadership, character, and service in the school and the community. Elec- tions were held and officers elected Were: Tom Crowley, president, Paul Hoover, vice-president, and Delores Thorn, secretary. Five per cent of the senior class was in the first group chosen according to National rulings. On March 5, 1947, the second group consisting of thirty-two members, ten per cent of the senior class, was named in assembly. Although our chap- ter is an honorary group rather than an active so- ciety as it is in some schools, each new member felt that he had been fully repaid for each and every extra effort and bit of hard Work during his years in school.

IDDLETO IAN Hurry, Middletonians are out! This cry is heard by lVl. H. S. students every other Wednesday at 3:00 oiclock announcing the distribution of our bi-weekly publication, the lVliddletonian. This informative news- paper is widely read by the student body and the faculty, keeping them apace with the numerous events, pre- sentations, and activities about the school. The Press Club, composed of all Middletonian Staff members, meets every other Thursday at 7:4115 A. lVl. to discuss changes and improvements in the paper, plan money-making projects, and receive assignments for the next edition. To offset a steady diet of news articles, the 746-,417 Middletonian contains a generous sprinkling of fea- ture material. Such columns as Fashion Elairs, Wing Tips, Sour Notes, Exchanges, and Fountain Service are cleverly prepared by Esther Chaney, Ronald Blalack, Jane Wiley, Pat Bowling, and Biggs Monfort. The fea- ture staffis talented editor is George Skillman, who is also responsible for the manners-minded Kilroy Kapers. The journalistic efforts of the staff were guided with understanding and discretion by Miss Mabel Eld- ridge, faculty adviser. The hnancial standing of the paper was aided by the stellar work of Naida Jean Jones and the Adveitising Staff. Busy too, the Sports Staff, headed for a second year by Bill Saunders, was re- sponsible for the accurate and interesting sports section. Distribution was handled carefully by Bill Klopp and the representatives from each home room. Barbara Decatur, art editor, and her staff cleverly sketched the cartoons and other illustrations, the typists and proofreaders, as in every newspaper, were our unsung heroes. 70 MIDDLETONIAN THIRTY REASONS WHY Seated Sue Mardas Ella Mae Hoover Carolyn Flavin Standing Joann Whitley Dick Ross Jim Young Mary Garofalos Jolene Laut Wanda Perry Ann Schraifenberger Bill Klopp IT Is BETTER THAN EVER' Seated Patsy Bowling Delores Thorn Jeanne Newton Jane Wiley Standing Esther Chaney Ronald Blalack Peggy Denny Bill Saunders Steve Demetrion YoU CoUNT iEM, Too!

The band members, de- spite frozen toes and fingers fand instrumentsll, kept on the job and presented something really different in the line of formations and perform- ances at each game. Some of those memorable occasions were: f'The Romance of G. l. Joe and Bobby Sox Suef, '4Sadie Hawkins' Day,', and uTribute to the Armed Forcesfj The band also performed during the games at Springfield and Hamilton, thanks to the Alumni Association. Live- ly marchescand popular music kept everyone Hin the moodi' at the basketball games. The concert band, after practicing everyday for an hour fand sometimes morej, played several lo- cal and out-of-town concerts in addition to an as- sembly program. For the first time the band was organized, and the members elected the following council: presi- dent, Chester Cottongimg vice-president, Gene Whitley, secretary-treasurer, Don Duvall, sopho- more representative, Bob Frisch, junior represen- tative, Eddie Keller, senior representative, Paul Drake. Mr. Carter also chose a council: student direc- tor, Jane Wiley, student manager, Verlin Curtis, librarian, Lucy Rothgebg publicity manager, ,lim lVlillsg uniform manager, Dick Banker, head drum majorette, Pat Mehl.

URCHE TRA The sound of the thundering tympani and the crashing cymbal in '4New Moon started the or- chestra's season under its new director, Vincent Carter. After weeks of work, the orchestra, with three more violins than last year, was ready to make its first appearance of the year at the sophomore class play. Wllhe New Moonf' which contains numerous favorites by Sigmund Romberg, was probably the best 'L 'i l d th ' ' liked overture of the year with the exception of the selections from Oklahoma, p aye at e junior class play. Favorite popular songs were: 'The Whole World ls Singing My Songf' wfhe Girl That I Marryfi and The Anniversary Song. Musical background and the theme song for the l'Schooldays broadcast over WMOH were pro- vided by the orchestra several times. Collaborating with the boys' glee club, the orchestra presented an assembly program in addition to playing a concert for the public. Probably the most outstanding performance the orchestra has made for several years was the accompanying of the operetta Holly- wood Extraf' which was a huge success. 74 3.5.

D10 They say if you work hard enough you can make your dreams come true, and that is exactly what happened in the case of our weekly radio program, g'lVliddletown Schooldaysf' For two and a half years the students traveled to Hamilton each week to broadcast over WMOH, but on the history-making date of January 15, 1947, ulVIiddletown Schooldaysn was put on the air direct from our own station right here in the M. H. S. auditorium! ' l The stage in the auditorium took on the aspects of a real broadcasting studio with Miss Powell di- recting, Mr. McDaniel at the controls, and a group of students gathered about thelumikef' scripts in hand, waiting for the go ahead sign. Schooldays was the theme song sung hy those participating in the programs with Lucy Rothgeh as accompanist. 6'QuietI We're onthe airln became a familiar expression heard every Wednesday at 411:30 P. M., the time when Middletown was on the air. Besides the variety of programs fea- tured hy the speech, dramatic, and music departments, programs were presented by Roosevelt and McKinley Junior Highs and several of the grade schools. Students taking part in the programs gained technique in radio speaking, acting, writing, and direct- ing. Miss POWELL Herels to a hig future for lVl. H. S. in the field of radio! 75 QPERETT uHollywood Extra 7, with music by George Wakefield Cadman, was chosen to be the first operetta h fU l Ab- for many years. The lhrst act, under the direction of Herman I. Copp, opened in the ome o nc e Ma nard fTro Halll where a Hsend off partyn was being held for Irene fPauline Porterl, who ner y ' y ,, had won a 4LTalkie contest sponsored by the Goldenrod Picture Corporation of Hollywood. Entertainment was provided by a speech from Abner, several songs, and a debate about Hollywood by Abner and Hannah Hilltop flennie Carpenterl, who had just announced her engagement to Abner. Hannah didn't appreciate the way Abner enjoyed the song and dance of Rita Lupa QCarol Jonesj, a star of the Goldenrod Corporation who had entered, but she agreed to sing a part in uThat Old Time Fiddlers' Spreew with Abner, Irene, and Bob Wilcox QGilbert Egelstonj, who had written, 'cLove In the Moonlightfi which Irene sang in the contest. d P l' dded to the excitement after which Bob rehearsed Irene The Canadian Northwest lVIounte N o ice a , . on her song, Debby ClVIarjorie Palmerj, Bob's younger sister, dreamed a pantomlmeg then Irene was oil to Hollywood. 76 HOLLYWCOD EXTR Act II, under the direction of Vincent Carter took place on an Al erian c'Set'7 ' H ll , g in o ywood six weeks later, when Hollywood Extrasn were rehearsing under the direction of Marty Williams CDick B k y. . . . an erj, until their real director, Harold DeBunker fFred Howardj, arrived. Irene, only an extra, having failed in her song and entrances before DeBunke b r, egan to Weep, but was soon cheered up by the arrival of Debby, who had been in Hollywood three weeks, and of Uncle Abner, who had made friends with Isaac Goldenrod himself fDon Dalyl, and talked him into try- ing out Irene. At that Bob and Hannah entered. Bob, who had just discovered he was in love with Irene, sang HMy Village Queenw. Abner finally secured places for all Hopetown persons in the Algerian scenes with the exception of H U ' annah because there were not enoubh costumes, but Hannah, not to be outdone, made a costume out of a Patchwork quilt. Mr. Goldenrod then announced his decision to film a movie in Hopetown, Maine, to be called Uncle Abnerv. All Hopetown persons pre-sent were to be included in the cast with Irene as hero- ine. After the final encore, 4'Love In th M l'vh H ' 44 ' e oon 1,3 t, everyone decided that Hollywood Extra' was real- ly dextran entertaining. 77 SENIOR CLASS PLAY THE DOUBLE DOOR The Double Door, senior class play of 1946, is a horror melodrama, based upon the psychological problems of a family dominated by a flendish, middle-aged Woman, Victoria flVlary Louise Har- veyj, who is insane in her greed for gold and jewels. The clash between her will and the influence of Anne fliiuth Schrockl, a beautiful young nurse, brought in to take care of Rip fBob Daviesl, Vic- toriais young half-brother, keeps the audience on the edge of the seats for the entire evening. The double door is a set of two doors to a hid- den room. The outer door is a secret one in what appears to be a shrine containing the ashes of the dead father and mother. The inner door is a safe door, heavy and sound proof. lnto this place Vic- toria lures Anne, the heroine, in a mad attempt to gain back her complete dominance of Rip, the young heir to the family fortune. Thwarted by her sister Caroline ffiosemary Marlettl, who through her love of Rip and Anne, regains her courage and reveals the secret of the door, Vic- oria is forced to give up her rights to the family wealth. The play ends with her, deserted by all her family and friends, insanely gloating over the pearls they left to her. JU ICR CLASS PLAY JANUARY THAW On March 27 the Junior Class presented 'flan- uary Thaw, a comedy in three acts. Things are running smoothly for the Gage family when they move into their remodeled old Connecticut farm- house. Herbert Cage Uay Beattyj has just gotten a good start on his book. Out of a clear blue sky the former owners of the house, the Rockwoods, enter the scene and certainly complicate things. Jonathan Rockwood flVlark Scheibertj insists upon reconverting all the modern improvements, while his wife, Mathilda fNancy Neillj, agrees with him entirely. Then too, the presence of their young son, Matt Rockwood flsarry Behrensb, causes the treasured Frieda fMary Hendricksl to immediate- ly leave her job, and Barbara Gage Clfiileen Haneyj to almost lose her fiance, George Husted fDick Rossi. Everything was finally straightened out through the continued efforts of Marge Gage fDot- tie Haginsj, the conscientious Lawyer Loomis fPaul Wellsj, and the country Constable Carson flVIaX Wrightj. The liveliness and humor of the two young daughters, Sarah flrene Hodgel and Paula fLois Beedlej, along with the gossip of Uncle Walter flim Demetrionj all helped to make the play a real hit. i ri 4 . z, at af Q ' SCPHCMGRE CLASS PLAY THE NIGHT OWL On December 10 the Sophomore Class, under the direction of Clarence Gingerich, ably present- ed a three-act mystery comedy, The Night Owlf' Ann Wesley Goan Heyerj decides to retire to the country to write some more mystery plays for her producer, James Gray CBruce Clevelandj, who has sent ahead two of his best dramatists, George Karley CAl Gorrellj and Mrs. Karley QPeggy Fer- digl to make the atmosphere just right for her. On a stormy evening Daisy Linden Uanet Milesj and her two abductors, Private Detectives Kent Grant Hack Backl and William Wimple fllay Rootj, destroy Miss Wesleyls privacy in seeking shelter from the rain. A little later June Allen Uoan Ruskj and Jack Benton QHenry Woodsl, two young people in love, stop at the house be- cause of car trouble. The action moves very fast from here on, and the mysterious doings of Patsy fPhyllis lVlcGuireD, a circus refugee, help com- plete a play of thrills, love, and laughter. CHAPEL PLAYS Ringing in the Groom, a comedy given by Socc and Buskin, in which the spry old grandmother fPat Mehll of the Baker family CLydia Hoffman, Pete Brown, ,lay Beatty, and Pauline Porterl really made things move around the household even to helping Georgels girlfriend, Ruth Hubbard fMarjorie Palmerl, uget her manfl How Grandmother and her new fangled ways annoyed her Spinster sister, Aunt Ella fVirginia Curtisl, who was interested in foreign missions! The maid fMary Hend- ricksj completed the cast and added much humor to a very clever play. Behind the scenes on all occasions were our two faithful school electricians, Laurel Abney and Dick Criss. The Robeson Dramatic Club, using Uncle Remus and his stories as their theme, presented a top notch assem- bly program. The different musical acts and skits were introduced as occasions when Uncle Remus was a stu- dent at M. H. S. The State Contest play was a melodrama, uThe Mon- key's Paw. The action centered around the paw of a monkey on which an old fakir had cast a spell. Three wishes could be made on it. What the three wishes were and how they came true made the play a spine tingler. .V f 81 W K 6 . :fig f. 9' ,Ago 4' ,sv7f'fff'1i, 1 l 4 3 FUTURE TEACHERS The local Future Teachers of America club was organized in the spring of 1946 as a part of the national organization with Miss Helen Hartman as adviser. The purpose of the club is to help students become more interested in the teaching profession and to improve the schools. Several teachers, representing different phases of teaching, spoke at the meetings held each month. A trip to Miami University was planned to give the members practical knowledge about their chosen profession.

H. S. this year, was organized to promote skill in reading and speaking, and to develop a more gen- eral interest in these accomplishments throughout the student body. Anyone in the junior class was eligible. Under the capable leadership of Miss Hoover varied programs were presented, con- sisting of book reviews, discussions of authors, and a discussion about movies and their produc- tion. A radio program based on Oil-Ienryas Whir- ligig of Life was broadcast over WMOH. ADVANCED SPEECH Students of this group under the direction of Mr. Gingerich spoke to the Civitan Club, the Pro- fessional and Business Women's Club, and the Uni- versity Women's Club during National Education Week. They also gave programs at both Roose- velt and McKinley Junior Highs, and later in the year spoke again to the Civitan Club on Juvenile Delinquency. A panel discussion was presented in Assembly on Washington's Birthday, and sev- eral humorous ones were cfiv h D en at t e Episcopal Church and for Y-Teens and Hi-Y.

Standing: George Revelos, Bob Marcum, Don Hadley, Mr. Goettman, William Brooks, Phil Morrow, Mr. Frayer, E. H. McCandlish. The Hi-Y groups really proved themselves this year by living up to, and making higher, their al- ready high standards under the stress and strain of changing leadership. Finally settled with Mr. Rentz at the helm, the six groups: Miami, Torch, Triangle, Circle, and Croix from the Y. M. C. A., and Pan- ther from the Armco Colored Center, continued their usual good will work by contributing generously to the World Emergency Fund, the Red Cross, the Civic Association, the lnfantile Paralysis Drive, and Thanksgiving and Christmas baskets to the needy. Social events were not lacking, with dances and hayrides highlighting the year. Activities again cen- tered around the football and basketball leagues in which all groups took part. A hard-earned foot- ball championship went, this year, to Miami. ln the basketball leagues, the victor of the regular sea- son play was Panther Hi-Y. ln the elimination series, Triangle won the second basketball championship with a decisive victory over Circle in the iinals. These leagues, held every year, play an important part in the Hi-Y program. During the summer the five Hi-Y presidents attended Camp Nelson-Dodd near Columbus and later in the year met with representatives of other Ohio Hi-Ys at a Hi-Y Congress in Columbus. Both of these conferences were for the betterment of the Hi-Y clubs, training the officers, discussing and exchanging ideas for improving the organization. Judging from the good work accomplished and the good times had by all, the Hi-Y members again set the best of examples for achieving the Hi-Y purpose, 'LTO create, maintain, and extend throughout the school and community, high standards of Christian Character. 84 WGRLD DAY CF PRAYER On February 20, 194-7, more than iive hundred students, Hi-Y and Y-Teen members, assembled at the First Methodist Church for the annual World Day of Prayer Service. Each year on the lirst Thursday of Lent young people all over the world meet in this manner to pray for World Fellowship so that they might learn to live more peacefully with one another. Jane Wiley opened the program with the invo- cation, the scripture was given by Doris Heller, and Tom Hensey led us in prayer. The four proj- ects were presented by Pat Cade, Joann Whitley, George Kavouras, and Joan lngwersen, to explain the meaning of the World Day of Prayer and the use of the free will offering taken at this service. This fund helps to build schools and churches in forei n countries and to educate worthy foreign students in the United States. In our own coun- try the money is used to help the American In- dians and sharecroppers, and to buy and distribute books and magazines to those who live in sparse- ly settled or mountain areas. The guest speaker was Reverend Fairman of the United Presbyterian Church, Oxford, who chose as his topic, Christian Principlesf, To illustrate his talk he used the four dimensions, width, height, length, and breadth. Of these, breadth was the most important. Giving both humorous and se- rious examples, he asked us to measure our lives according to these dimensions and see just how much we were helping ourselves and others to lead a more Christian life, stressing the fact that our acquaintances have a definite effect on our lives though we may not realize it. lst Row-Glee Club: Pat Ellison, accompanist, Don Porter, Tom Spisakg Gilbert Egelston, soloist, Dick Haginsg Charles Blazer, Tom Hart, Vincent Carter, director. 2nd Row-Glee Club: Paul Ringer, Rudolph Looney, Richard Reck, Shelby Linville, Troy Hall, Don Daly, Fred Howard, Francis Bieler. lst Row-Ushers: Marc Gillespie, Bob Grimes, Bruce Cleveland, Barry Levey, Marvin Monroe, Walter Roehll. 2nd Row-Speakers: Helen Barkley, George Kavouras, Joan Ingwersen, Joann Whitley, Reverend Fairman, Pat Gade, Jane Wiley, Doris Heller, Tom Hensey. Y-TEE uReady for Servicei' is one of the main pur- poses of the Y-Teen organization. This service is sometimes rendered by selling poppies for the American Legion and Veterans of Foreign Wars, selling forget-me-nots for the War Mothers, vis- iting shut-ins each week, making dressings for the hospital, and bringing happiness to the sopho- mores through mysterious Nlittle sister letters. Many types of service, however, require money, so that Lincoln Field, during football games, was the scene of lots of work for the Y-Teens, who did a super job of selling programs, Middie buttons, caps and stickers to make money for the general treasury. ln addition to that each triangle in- creased its own treasury by white elephant sales and candy sales. Name cards were also sold here at M. H. S. to most of the seniors. Before Christmas the girls p u r c h a s e d and wrapped 300 gifts for the Red Cross, which were sent to the boys on the high seas to help bring them a little closer home for Christmas. These gifts, including candy, cigarettes, cards, tooth brushes, handkerchiefs, and pocket reading books, were made up into 50 big packages. At this time they also sent a check for 315100 to the Hamilton Orphan's Home, and each group fixed a basket of food and gifts for a local needy family for both Thanksgiving and Christmas. Checks were sent to the American Red Cross, World Reconstruction Program, and World Fellowship Program to help with their work. Seated: Mary Ann Boyd, Peggy Martin, Carolyn Yount.

It was the last year that the familiar phrase Girl Reserve was to be heard around M. H. S., for at a district meeting at Columbus, attended b the U 'd y group presi ents, Girl Reserve was changed to Y- Teen so that these groups might be more easily associated with the Y. W. C. A. , of which they are a part. The second big change was the addition of a new triangle, Omega, to the original five: Gam- Z3 ma, Iota, Rho, Lambda, and Sigma. This new group was formed to take care of the increased membership, ninety-four new members having been taken into Y-Teens in December at a beauti- ful candlelight service, making the total membership 265. Last June six girls, Pat Cade, Kathy Haney, Naida Jean Jones, Virginia Phillips, Carol Minch, and Dorothy Pomeroy, attended Y-Teen Camp at Westerville, Ohio, for a week. Here they met with ninety representatives from thirty-five other groups to exchange ideas, make future plans for the District Y-Teens, and have a good time. Parties, hayrides, and the Spring Dance for all members highlighted the last few weeks as the year came to a perfect close for everyone, the sophomores and juniors looking forward to next year and the seniors climaxing three unforgettable years of Girl Reserves and 7 Y-Teens with their Senior Formal at the Armco Auditorium. 87 , , , e , aro ones, Patsy Bowling.

COACHE Middletown, the center from which spectacular athletic teams have originated for many years, owes heaps of credit to the students who play the game and bring glory to M. H. S., but muchcredit must also go to the fine men who stand behind the ranks urging them on to more victories. These are the teachers of athletics, the coaches. R entl Elmo Lingrel was awarded the post of Athletic Director after being head football ec y coach for many years. Into his vacated shoes stepped Glenn Ellison, who also managed the fortunes f h ,l Vees in basketball Another post that of head basketball coach, which George Houck held o t e ay . , last year, fell to Paul Walker, who previously taught at Portsmouth High. Stan Lewis of McKinley handled the job of line coach in footballg Harold Mason of Roosevelt was end coachg Paul Walker worked with the junior varsity, and was the oliicial scout for the varsity. Walker also coached the baseball team this spring, Ellison guided the thincladsg and the boys' tennis team was directed by Harold Mason of Roosevelt. To all these men ffoes the sincere appreciation of Middletown fans for good athletic events to D entertain them, but even more than that for developing its youth physically and morally into men of whom they can be proud. 90 FOOTBALL RECORD T Middletown 12 DeVilbiss 6 Middletown 12 Fail-View 6 Middletown 13 Wilbur Wright 7 Middletown 19 Lima South 7 Middletown 28 Stivers 7 Middletown 0 Lima Central 7 Middletown 14 Portsmouth 33 Middletown 7 Hamilton 13 TOLEDO DEVILBISS The Middies, undaunted by the traditional bad luck day, Friday the 13th, nosed out a strong To- ledo DeVilbiss team in their opening game 12 to 6. Toledo cashed in on a Middletown fumble early in the nrst quarter, but the Middies came back in the same period to tie the contest at 6 to 6 on an end run by Bob Schiering. Elkins of Toledo scored another touchdown in the second period, but it was nullified by a holding penalty. In the third quarter Babe Calhoun sprinted forty-nine yards to put the Middies ahead 12 to 6. During the remainder of the third quarter and throu hout the g fourth quarter, the p1gSk1I'l changed hands, but the score remained the same. DAYTON FAIRVIEW Fighting from behind, the Mighty Middie Machine toppled a heavier Dayton Fairview team 12 to 6. The upstaters possessed a strong line-bucker in big Al Grammer, whom the Purple line found difficult to stop, however, the big boy ran himself out in the second half, and the Ellisonites went on to win their second victory of the year. L'Babe Calhoun galloped forty-seven yards for the fea- ture run of the evening. Calhoun and Forkner lugged the pigskin in the third and fourth periods respectively for the two local scores. WILBUR WRIGHT A supposedly underdog Dayton Wilbur Wright aggregation suddenly came to life in the first quarter and forced the Middies to come from behind to defeat them, 13 to 7. Early in the initial period, the Pilot backiield combined to cut through the Purple line and move the ball from their own f twenty-seven to the Middie fourteen, from where Oglesbee scored standing up. Ward's kick rom placement was good. ln the second quarter, a few plays after the kickoff, End Shelby Linville re- ceived a short pass and raced all the way to the Pilot twelve. From the one yard stripe, Forkner ' h bowled his way into the end zone, and Captain Tom Hensey drop-kicked the extra point to tie t e score. ln the third quarter a forward pass and a penalty put the ball on the Wilbur Wright twen- ty, from where Forkner cut through the center for the second counter. During the last period Wil- bur Wright once again forced the locals against the wall only to have a pass intercepted on the live yard line.

E 4 i f 2 LIMA SGUTH The Middletown Middies roared back from a surprisingly close contest with Wilbur Wri ht to g register an impressive 19 to 7 victory over the Lima South Tigers, the only team to conquer the Middies last year. It was sweet revenge for the Middies, as they rolled up eighteen first downs to l..ima's seven, and gained 276 yards by rushing to the Tigers' 102. South was completely outplayed until the final minutes of the game when they scored their only touchdown against the Middie second team. Phil Morrow, Middletown fullback, did some wonderful puntin scored t t h- g, wo ouc downs, and averaged nearly eight yards each time he carried the b ll H l a . afback Bob Schiering scored the other Middie touchdown. The Middletown line, led by Joe Lewis and Chuck Asher l , p us fine backing by Captain Hensey and Quarterback Forkner h ld h h , e t e ighly touted Lima offense in check throughout the contest. DAYTON STTVERS The mighty Middies rolled on to their fifth victory when they downed D S ' ayton tivers 28 to 7. Early in the first quarter the Middies scored, taking advantage of a Stiveris fumble. Forkner plung- ed over from the one after he and Morrow had smashed through from the twenty-four, and Hen- Seyas drop kick was good. After Waltz scored Stivers' only touchdown in the second quarter, An- drew completed a pass to Ritz for the extra point to knot the score. Forkner scored in the third period, climaxing a forty-two yard -advance. The third Middie touchdown came when Morrow in- tercepted a Tiger pass and on the next play dashed twenty-three yards to pay dirt. Hensey made his third straight drop kick. On the first play after the kickoff, Stivers tried a pass which was inter- cepted by Brewer who galloped thirty-hve yards for the final touchdown. Hensey picked his block- ed kick out of the air and ran it over for the extra point for a perfect record. 93 LIMA CENTRAL The speedy Dragons of Lima Central hung the first defeat in six games on the Middies with a score of 7 to 0. While the Middie offense simply never materialized at all, the fancy running backs of Lima Central, led by Halfback Bill Sharp and some excellent blockers, roared to their lone touchdown in the first period. On the only touchdown play Lyle, quarterback, faded back and heav- ed a long pass to Sharp, who gathered the ball in on the ten and sprinted for the score. ln the sec- ond quarter Sharp jaunted fifty-five yards for a touchdown, only to have the play nullified by an off- . . . , . L. side penalty. ln the third quarter the Middies started to move toward Central s territory, but ima ' ter e ted a short pass Again in the fourth period the Middie Warriors advanced into Lima's ter- 1n c p . ritory, but they bogged down and had to punt. The game ended with the locals having possession of the ball deep in their own territory. SPRINGFIELD The battling Middies fought from behind twice to defeat a strong Springfield team 144 to 13. l ff lt was Captain Tom Hensey's drop kick that proved to be the winning margin. The loca o ense was forced to work overtime as their usually strong defense was lacking.

Morrow, on the first lVliddie play, went eighty-two yards to score. Hensey's drop kick was good. Receiving for - the second time, the Trojans tried a pass, which was intercepted by Hensey. The Middies then moved the ball to the seven in nine plays, from where Morrow smashed through for his second tally. The drop kick was again good. It looked like the Pur- ple would trample the Trojans, but the Trojans recovered the ball on a fumble and moved to the fourteen from where Sparks scored. ,lust before the half, Clowe intercepted a purple pass on the fifty and carried the ball over for the second time. The half ended 14 to 13 in favor of Middletown. Ports- mouth turned on the speed in the third period to make two more touchdowns and lead 26 to 14. In the fourth quarter it looked as if the Middies would score again but they lost the ball on downs. Portsmouth pushed to the forty-three and then Welton blasted through the center for the final touchdown and Thomas' conversion was good. HAMILTON The Big Blue of Hamilton defeated the Middies in the annual Butler Bowl game 13 to 7. The two Hamilton touchdowns were scored by Eldon Grath wohl in the second period.

VARST Y FRANKLIN The Middies, presenting an entirely new aggregation in the opening game of the 19416-1947 basketball season, tripped up the Franklin Wildcats, 22 to 16, in a very slow game. The Wildcats started stalling in the second quarter to keep the score down, but the Purple kept dropping in bas- kets to maintain a lead throughout the game. DAYTON STIVERS The Middies' proud record of 35 straight wins on the home floor was almost shattered, as the Purple and White erased Dayton Stivers with a whispered score of 31 to 30. Blowing a first quar- ter lead of 10 to 3, the Middie combination came out on the short end of the 13 to 15 score at half- time. Dayton Stivers was ahead by a score of 30 to 29 at the fourth quarter, but with 28 seconds to go, Bob Asher, who was high point man, connected with the winning basket. RQOSEVELT The Middies, in their first game away from home, turned in their third win against Dayton Roosevelt with a score of 544 to 38. After finding the smiall gym to their liking, the Purple rang u 10 oints before the Teddies were able to score, and led 15 to LL at the end of the first period. P P Th 1 h't more consistently in the second quarter, but the Middies kept up the torrid pace for a e osers 1 30 to 14 half-time margin. The Purple and White never let up in their scoring as Shelby Linville led the locals with 19 points. 100 EASK T Al, 'WILBUR VVRIGHT The rapidly improving Middies trimmed a tall Dayton Wilbur Wright team 11-5 to 28. George Mcfihesney led the local attack with 14 points, followed by Carl Lansaw with 9 markers. The Middies held a comfortable lead throughout the first three periods and then pulled away in a final stanza that saw Coach Paul Walker clean the bench of substitutes. MIAMISBURG Led by big Shelby Linville, the Middies defeat- ed the Miamisburg Vikings 48 to 26. The Pur- ple jumped into an early lead and at the quarter the score was ll to 75 at the half, 20 to ll. In the third period, the Vikings came to within 7 points, but the Middies pulled away, and owned a 30 to 19 lead at the third quarter mark. All the Mid- dies had to do in the final period was toss it to Linville, who was playing pivot. 101 BOB ASHER NEWARK The Newark Wildcats upset the applecart when they stopped the long string of consecutive vic- tories owned by the Middies. The Wildcats took the lead early in the first quarter and never relin- quished it, leading 15 to 10 at the end of the first period. The second period was a runaway for the Wildcats as they scored 13 points to 6 for the Middies. In the third quarter the Middies came back and pushed to Within 5 points of the leaders, but the Wildcats held off a last period rusli by the Middies to win, 416 to 43. f vt, , is f if ,ff R35 ff fl X I f fl 1 .5954 ' A riff ff .2 1 1 A, ..,. , f- f ,, I y I ,yeyy pcyyi TW Q K 4-RNA at , - ' ,.

Big Shelby Linville set the scoring pace with 18 points. ' MONROE The Middletown Middies flashed on to their seventh victory when they defeated a hard-fighting Monroe five by a score of 41 to 31. At the end of the first period, it looked as if the Middies would have a hard evening, but the Middletown boys finally got their shooting eyes and were never seri- ously threatened throughout the rest of the game. Bob Asher and Shelby Linville sparked the scor- ing with 13 and 12 points, respectively, and Marc Gillespie proved his worth to the Middies as a substitute. 102 9.,' f 4 is y we a t 2 Q I 1 D f R. . , if l' Q . .f 'Ein J ' ,Q-S DICK SCHRIM CLIFF WHISMAN PORTSMOUTH Venturing to the South for a contest with the Portsmouth T ' h rojans, t e locals gained another vic- tory by the score of 42 to 33.

The score of the game was 36 to 36 at the end of the regular playing time. The Middies practically had the game Cin the bagf' chiefly due to the fine bottling up of Hamilton's chief point-getter, Nuxhall, by Shelby Linville and Cliff Whisman, but with the score 29 to 17 in favor of the Middies and with five minutes to play, these boys left the floor via foul route. 103 LIMA SOUTH The Middies returned to their winning ways at the expense of Lima South, 45 to 31.

The third period ended with the Middies ahead 30 to 28, but with just 90 seconds remaining in the . . . 1 final quarter Lima Central overcame the Mlddlfb lead of 41 to 33 with two goals and a fou to put the game on ice. PORTSMOUTH The wearers of the Purple edged out a good Trojan aggregation on the home floor by the score of 44 to 36. Portsmouth exhibited a very fast break for most of the game, but they tuckered out in ' ' ' l d h the final minutes. 111 the first quarter the lVl1dd1es led 13 to 7, but the Trojans c ose t e gap to a 20 to 19 advantage for the Purple at half-time.

The Buccaneers hit with regularity to lead the Purple at the end of the first period. In the fading minutes of the game the Middies mana d an se to break ahead 36 to 32.

Then afoul shotb Ah b ' ' ' y s er, a asket by Xenia, a basket by Linville set the stage for the dramatic climax, when Hornick, Xenia center, sank a long Helder and iced the game.

' 105 STATE CH MP Middletown is unusually proud and happy about this year's State Championship, the reaso d h fi l ame so beautifully played that we were indisputably State Champs. HSI 3. IICW coach, a new team, an t e na g According to '4Tiger7' Ellison the success of our basketball team this year may be traced to several factors: First, there was Shelby Linville's faith in himself and his teammates. Everybody at the rally laughed last year when Shelby stood up and predicted we would win the championship again this year. The willingness of Carl Lansaw to give up trying to score as many points as his famous brother and stick to his beautiful blind passing and excellent floor work made him a champ in his own unglorified manner. Then there was the dav in mid-season when Bob Grimes moved up to the Varsity and George lVlcChes- d h' h t- ney moved down to the secdnd team. Grimes' fancy fakes and footwork, his rebound ability, an is s oo ing accuracy were a definite factor in our success. George's fighting heart was another big factor. When Grimes moved up and lVIcChesney moved down, George did not whine and make excuses. Instead he came fighting back with the declaration that 'canybody who beats me out of my position will have to work like heck! Bob Asheris nobility of spirit helped us win the State Championship. When lVlcChesney beat out Asher, Bob said, c'George, Fll pull for you and pray for you just as hard as I would have for myself! Af . b ' dro ed from the squad for not obeying one of Coach's rules, Bob Bush's love for the game ter eing pp spurred him on to beg forgiveness, join the wrecking crew, and regain his position on the Varsity. Al im ortant in our Great Victory were the cleverness of Billy Jones, the fiery pep of Cliff Whisman, the so p hard work of Marc Gillespie and Dick Schirm, and the fact that Walker is one of the best in the business. DISTRICT TOURNAMENT XEN IA CENTRAL The Middletown Middies soundly tliumped Xenia Central by a 40 to 13 score in their debut into the District Tourney. Xenia couldn't find the basket during the first half, but the Middies were uonn as they hit the basket for 10 points in the Hrst quarter and 11 in the second. The Middies led at the half-time 21 to 75 in the third quarter Central tied the Middies in ' 'h scoring Wit 7 points apiece, but in the fourth quarter all the second stringers saw action. N ORTHRIDGE The Middies hurdled or ri ge 37 to 35 in a hectic sudden death period. Carl Lansaw chalked up the winning counter after the thrill-packed contest had gone through one overtime. The Bears, led by Walt Hirsch, were in the lead most of the game. It was this same Hirsch who stood at the f l l' ou ine and sank two fouls after the first overtime had alread d d ' ' y en e to put his team once more even with the Purple. their second opponent as they toppled the Polar Bears of N th 'd HAMILTON CATHOLIC Cliff Whisman, with only seventeen seconds to go, tallied the point that spelled defeat and elimination for the Hamilton Catholic Rams in the third game of the Tournament. The final count, 30 to 29, was a perfect indication of the kind of game that was la d ' p ye as it Was nip and tuck all the way. The Purple lagged at the beginning and spent the rest of the game catching up. Shelby Linville not only led the scoring with 9 points but also did a ban u ' b g- p jo of guard- ing ,loc Winkler and holding him to only 7 points. 107 HAMILTON Fighting from behind, the Middies racked up their fourth tournament victory by giving the Hamilton Big Blue a 36 to 344 defeat. At the end of the first quarter a 10 to 6 lead was owned by ' ' ' ' ' G ' d Whisman the Big Blue, but the Middies came back in the second period, sparked by rimes an , . . . d to knot the count at 16 to 16. Hamilton again took the lead, and at the start of the final per1o was ahead 26 to 23, but George McChesney's scoring, Bob Grimesis guarding of Nuxhall, and the freezing of the ball in the last minute, brought the Middies their fifth straight District Champion- ship. REGIONAL TOURNAMENT ROGER BAOON Th Middletown Middies advanced to the Regional Finals at Dayton by downing Roger Bacon e in an overtime period by a score of 51 to 48. The Spartans were tough all the way, as they led at the end of the first quarter, 11 to 10, and at halftime, 24, to 18.

The local lads stepped away to a quick lead 13 tb 6 at the , , quarter, and, though threatened once in the second quarter, still led at the half, 25 to 16. The renowned fast b . reak of the up staters was slowed down to a waltz by the confident Middies forcin E L' g ast iver- pool to play the W'alkermen's style of ball.

Carl Lansaw acted the part of a human octopus as he snatched passes all over the court and fed them to his team-mates. When it was over, there was no doubt that the Walkermen were true champions. 109 MIDDLETOWN CELEBRATES One of the greatest parades to hit Middletown in ages was pulled off Sunday afternoon, March 241 following the State Finals. Over a thousand automobiles met the State Champs at Franklin to 7 D escort them to the gala celebration in their honor at the high school gym. The program was trans- cribed over station WMOH with Paul Henson doing the interviewing and announcing. Joe Nux- hall, Hamilton's pride and joy in the athletic department, dropped in to congratulate the boys and Coach Walker on their victory. While interviewing Nuxhall and Linville, Butler County's two con- tributions to the Associated Press All-State team, Paul Henson asked Nuxhall what he thought of our winning the championship. Just as long as the honor stays in Butler County is all that mat- tersf' was the reply. Walkei' mopped his brow for the last time in the '47 tournament and could half-way relax while his first string took over the henchg the victory was now assured. In just a few seconds he could take off that wonderful Hgood-lucki' tie and loan it to the fellows from WMOH for some crazy reasong he didnit know why. It turned up, however, Sunday afternoon in a frame for Carl Lansaw, ' t ar when we the teamis captain. The tie will be faithfully guarded till tournament time nex ye , wish Walker and his boys all the luck in the world. Through the courtesy of Arrnco all the folks back home were able to hear the game broad- cast and td hear Coach and all of the boys speak after their wonderful victory. Sophomore Bob Crimes really looks happy.

Although the record compiled by the Middies wasnit too impressive, the team was a typical Middletown 'gtournamentn team and went to the district finals before being beaten out by a powerful Fairmont 1 team. Most of the practice sessions were held at the Gardner-Richardson baseball field, with games being played at both Gardner-Richardson Field and Armco Field. ,, 6 S1 . 1 2 . - ' 'fr ' 1 . . f ?7'?'4 H-, 'Zh f 1 4 . afffmgf . g A .if :. ,, I J ,,Lr.7 7,1 V VV fgafs 4? sli- Q, 1 ' 5 , ,c','e 3 ' ,.,.

Tanner, p 113 TRACK The l94l6 edition of the Middletown High School track team, although its rec- ord of games won and lost was not very good, showed up very well against tough competition. The thinclads, record for the season was one win and eight losses. The final meet of the season against our traditional rival, the Big Blue from Hamilton, was cancelled because of a very heavy rainstorm. The one meet in which the Middies ended up victorious was the only triangular meet of the year against Wayne and Monroe. Their losses were to Lanier, Fanklin, Fairmont, Lebanon, Norwood, Stivers, Monroe, and Oakwood. This sport, though not as popular with the fans as football and basketball, at- tracts about seventy-five fellows each year. Individually they develop physically, make and improve their own records, and have lots of fun in practice, meets, and the Pentathalon. , lst Row: Tom Selby, manager, Tom Spizak, Earl Snyder, Dick Miltenberger, Ed Keller, Jack Brown, Troy Taylor, Elbert Tannreuther, Bill Flisher, Tom Tranter, manager. 2nd Row: Nick Ringer, George Koeppel, Bud Baldwin, Don Long, Sonny Dingess, Dick Pickerell, Dick Keller, Warren Pence, Randall Butterfield, Ed Forkner, Coach Glenn Ellison. 3rd, Row: Laurel Abney, Bob Nickell, Bob Lambert, Letcher Darrell, Joe Alexander, Vernon Plummer, Harold Hannah, Phil Morrow, Earl Schnieder. 4th Row: Coach Stan Lewis, Tom Jones, Gene Whitley, Francis Kartavich, Joe Thomas, Jim Arnett, Emmett Williams, Dave Adams, Tom Crowley, Harold Ingram. 5th Row: Gary Troup, David Williams, Charles Mosier, Bob Bush, Alan Stevens, Bob Millard, Troy Hall. 6th Row: Ted Sickle, Tom Hensey, captain, Dick Hopper, Jim Smith, Don Whitt, Shelby Linville. 114 DAVE ADAMS EDDIE FOR KNER NICK RINGER Toivr CROWLEY EMMETT WILLIAMS Bon KELLER THE PENTATHALON Since only about one-fourth of the fellows could com t ' h pe e in eac track meet, the Pentathalon was started to keep all interested. This contest gave each boy an opportunity to compete against himself and see how much he could improve his personal record each week. In the Pentathalon there were five events: the 100 yard dash for speed, the quarter-mile run for stamina, the broad jump for leg drive. the high jump for leg spring, the shot put for strength.

Our engi- neers, Arthur Stringer, Bob Conrad, Dave Adams, Ed Layer, and Herbert Frazier, never can forget their work. Right now they are discussing plans for the new skyscraper, destined to outscrape even the Empire State Building! The orchestra leader in the Skylight' Room is Bob Hannah with Theresa Nori doing the vocals. There is our one Wall Street broker, Albert Kocsis. '6Well, messages are pouring in. ,loannl Skimming just called and said that she and Eve Walsh, our psychologists, are busy with! a problem child and are unable to attend, but! send their secretaries, Betty Dunlap and Pat Smiley. g'Here comes the manager of this scrump- tious hotel. Won't you say a few words, Don Daly? Thanks to television, you can see him blush. Well, folks, his real purpose was to bring in several messages we missed. This last telephone call was from Lois Weed and Geneva Robinson, librarians in the Li- brary of Congress. They are also unable to attend-working late with the senators, you know. Bob Helmers, our archeologist, calls from Mexico to say he has discovered buried Aztec treasure! ul notice everyone gazing around the room-Martha Martin and Shirley Goetz really outdid themselves when they decorated this room, but then after those years in Europe they should be good! The magnificent floral arrangements are from the One Smell and She's Yours Floral Shop owned by Pat Johnston, Vernon Plummer, and Bob Lam- bert. 'fOf course you've all seen the Gooey Can- dy, Dunky Doughnuts, and Burpsicola ad- vertisements. Well, there in the far corner are the illustrators, ,loan Popp and Carroll Gossett. 4'Here's a surprising telegram, and from a person we were certain would be here. Chal- mers Allan Brewer, editor of the New York Moon newspaper, with reporters, Mattie Sor- rell, Ruth Reeve, Essie McKenzie, and Yvonne Graham, is covering an exclusive scoop on a murder. 6'There are our physicaleducation teachers, Carol Jones and Mary Ann Lane, teaching gym to the girls at Vassar. I thought the distinguished looking men at that far table looked familiar. They are private detectives, Dick Patrick and Che:-QE Nelson. Doctors Eugene Robinson and R' dolph Looney, laboratory heads, decided the'-' deserved an eveningis relaxation after tl s strenuous month just spent. You knew tl. s was a world renowned clinic here in New York, where multitudes of former Middle- tonians are working. Here are laboratory workers, ,lim Rempe, Nate Mosby, Wallace Wright, Roy Hatfield, Robert Bauer, and Don Hamilton. In the office are Anna Hogan, Margaret Graham, Beulah Sherard, Lucy Rothgeb, Kathleen Trammell, and Alfred Withrow. 'cl hate to leave you all, but take one last look, alumni, because you are now being switched back to Middletownli' 4'Hello, everyone. Well, here we are back at the nucleus of the reunion, M. H. S. It makes you feel proud, hearing from all those famous people and remembering we graduat- ed with them! But not everyone went far from home. We have a lot of old friends right here. There7s Lloyd Brumley, prominent Day- ton Banker, and some of his employees: Lois .lean Farquer, Pat Kuiken, Lois Lindsay, Elinora Blanton, Dirtress Haynes, and Thelma Kring. And here we have Ann Garvin, head of nurses at Middletown Hospital. New York didnit get all the good nurses, for here are Lucille South, Mildred Brandenburg, Bernice Scearse, and Mary Ann Moore. The operetta, an annual event, this year should be a spectacular performance under the direction of Jane Wiley and Don Porter. 4'Paul Van Ostrand has a marvelous bowl- ing alley, Jim Jewell is a surveyor, Bob De- Haven is manager of the Kroger stores in town, and Joe Byrne is head of the meat department. Marc Gillespie owns his own funeral home. Don Oswalt is chief promoter for Delores Thorn's riding stables. Bell Harris and Don Bailey are veterinarians there. Four of the city's most prominent lawyers are Jim Shumate, Nicholas Ringer, Jack Brown, and Henry Fores. Harold Ingram has an auto shop with Don Winglewich, Bill Carpenter, Bill Sweeney, Ed Yenser, Omer Banks, and Tom Bishop working there. '4But enough from Middletown. Letis tune in for the evening news with Paul Pieratt. He promised to give us special recognition. 4'Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is Charles Collins bringing you your favorite CContinuecl on Page 1445 l 'I'here's steel in their blood There must be something about making Armco steels that gets into a man's blood. Not only do Armco men stick with their jobs 20, 25-even 45 years-but 90W of the Armco men discharged from the armed services came back to their jobs. This is far in excess of the national average for manufacturing industries. Why did so many Armco service men return? Sure, they like to hear the roaring furnaces, the hissing molten steel as it rushes into the giant ladles, the rumbling mills. But there is a deeper reason: They know that here they are en- . , couraged to develop their abilities and earning power. Executives are not brought in from the outsideg they come up from the ranks, Armco men are more than steel-makers-they are specialists. The future of some of your classmates may be written in Armco steel. Whether they become steel-workers, metallurgists or salesmen, they will always be proud of their part in ARMCO Special- Purpose Steels . . . steels developed to do hun- dreds of jobs better in home, farm, and industry.

It'll be your world, Johnny, and your respon- sibility. Make it a better one than your elders had, will you? We old folks like to think of ourselves as a generation of scientists: - - - but our physicists never built an atom smasher that would break down hatred or greed, and our chemists never evolved a formula to prevent wars. Oh, We didn't fail you entirely Johnny, or at least we were scientists enough to find, in our repeated failures, the beginnings of ultimate success. We never stopped war - - - but we found its causes. They are ignorance and intolerance. We went la little farther, too. We began the cure - - - using you as the guinea pig . That's an honor Johnny, to be a guinea pig---we would have liked to be, but our generation was already too badly infected. We've tried to destroy the germs of ignorance and intolerance in you - - - by injecting you with their opposites - - - knowledge and tolerance. You already have the beginnings of both. You've learned enough geography to know that all men and all nations are next door neighbors--- enough science to know that color and nationality are superficial distinctions between men --enough history to know that proud empires built upon conquest and tyranny are now dirt on some archeologist's spade. We have tried to make you a strong healthy citizen of the world - - - free of the deadly diseases of ignorance and intoler- ance. But wetve only begun the cure . The rest is up to you. You have to develop your knowledge and tolerance - - sharpen them, increase them, spread them all over your new world. We have tried to give you the benefit of what we had to learn the hard way.

Before we hear what Paul has to say, however, donit forget that these broadcasts are made possible by Don Walker's photography service. And now Paul Pierattf' HHello, everyone! What I have to say to- night may be of no importance to some of you, but to some three-hundred listeners scattered throughout the world, the 1947 graduating class of Middletown High School, the people and things of which lim going to speak will be of interest. Through inquiry and investigation I have found that these past twenty years have been good to all of us. The sports commentator who follows immediately after my broadcast is our old friend, Jim Mills. Follow his articles in the Chicago Tribune. As far as I know, Paul Hoover, Bill Stewart, and Paul Bruggeman are doing fine as aeronautical engineers. Don Hunt and Alfred Back are commercial archi- tects for the John Gill and Bud Barker Construction Company. 'iBecause of circumstances beyond their control the following have asked me to broad-- cast their regrets that they are unable to attend the reunion: Peggy Martin and Aretta Sexton, linguists in Southern Mexico, Don Hadley and Henry Mayes, civil engineers in Panama, Commanders Herschel Roberts,Dick Diefenbach, and Lacy Sturgill, somewhere in the Pacific on the U. S. S. Hawaii, Tom Pen- nington, Gene Ferrell and Paul Drake, Mer- chant Marines, Walter Lakoff, Ambassador to Russia, Joe Lewis, a political leader in New York, Dick Criss, head of the scouting movement in America. My time is running short, so I'11 return the broadcast to Charlie. 'iListen again tomorrow evening, folks.

As I was strolling along Piccadilly Circus yesterday, I recognized a familiar face-three, in fact-and rushed over to shake hands with ,lim Stork, here gathering material for a new radio script, and his secre- taries, Betty Williams and Norma Riddle. I told them about tonight, and they asked me to say Hello to everyone. '4lVlost of the work done by the Internation- al Red Cross is under the direct supervision of a council of nurses and doctors located here in London. Several of those nurses and doctors are good friends of ours: Doctors Dick Crund and Earl Schneider, and nurses Donna Kaurich, Audrey Luff, Betty Poynter, and Margie Rothwell. Their services demand specialized social work, such as that to which Jackie Wilmore, Leah Smith, Betty Sprinkles, and Isabelle Sloan give so much time travel- ing all over the continent. Slim looking over in the radio control room right now where two of the engineers are threatening to cut me off if I don't mention them to everyone back home. Okay, Bud Bald- win and Richard Allan, are you happy now? '4I.ast night we at the Embassy had open house for all Americans in England, it was surprising how many international travelers M. H. S. has produced. Chester Cottongim and his secretary, Evelyn Moorehead, stopped here while on their way to Russia to explain new agricultural developments. I saw George Kampschaefer, Charles Blanton, and Jim Smith trying to explain to a couple of cock- neys that they were American engineers in England working on the construction of a new type of subway. Julanne lVlcGuFf came up to see what I could do about arranging for her to make special broadcasts to the English about America. Of course I'll do all I can since she gave up her own program in New York especially for that.

Cheeriolw 4'Bon soir, everyone, this is Jeanne Newton in Paris. Weire holding a sort of reunion here in the studio Where a lot of us '47 graduates have gathered for this broadcast. Practically standing on top of me are Marilyn Meehan and Bill Klopp, pianists, who are associated with the Paris Symphony Orchestra. Out in the audience I can see Pat Cade, world's tennis champion, and her manager, Dick Schirm, who are in France during their travels through Europe. Jim Hackney, one of our country's most famous artists, is here, too, picking up ideas on French art. From the studio l can see all of Paris lit up. How about taking a tour with me up LaRue de Riviera. See that neon sign, Les Follies? One of our girls, Marie Moore, is dancing there. Here on the left you'll see the home of those beautiful fashions created by world-renown Marguerite-or better known to us as Peggy Denny. Carolyn Yount is her receptionist, and Helen Puckett and Jeanne Young are two of her secretaries. Across the street is the reason all Parisian women are beautiful, the Maison de Beaute, owned by June White, Mary Jordan, and Margie Stiles, who hit on all those marvelous new cosmetic discoveries. That shop with the huge perfume bottle in the window is where Marilyn Meek- er concocts all those luring odors. Did you know that her secretaries were Marjorie Man- ning, Betty Rusk, and Margaret Saylor? Several streets over is the famous Paris Opera house, where Jean Klingensmith and Barbara Myers sang last Week. They say the house was never so jammed in all its history.

'4At the American Embassy, a couple nights ago, I ra-n into oliice workers, Mollie Davis, Delores Day, Mary Ulrich, Nadine Wessel- man, .Iean Gillum, Dolores Hall, and Edith McFeeter.' Someone just walked into the studio. Why itis Dr. Walter Roehll and his assistant Mar- garet O'Connor, with nurses Beverly Laut and Pat Bowling, collaborating with French scientists on some new sort of scientific theory. I was just handed a telegram-quote-a traveleris life is a harried one stop couldn't get accomodations back to Paris stop wish we were there to say hello to folks back home stop we leave for Africa tomorrow stop love-unquote. It's signed Shirley Kurth, June Leighton, and Sally Hope, stewardesses with the TWA, and Dick Faeta and Myron Eugate, pilots. I see by the clock that it's time to sign off. Here's wishing the best of luck from everyone here to everyone there. We all join in saying Au, revoir from Paris. Take it away, Amer- ica.', 'That was certainly a thrilling experience. Who ever thought we would he seated at our radios, hearing from classmates abroad. By this time I know you are all hungry, so I'1l ask our insurance agents, William Dinan, Elmer Hayes, and ,Iack Fisher, and our jewelers, Chester Eultz and Bud Kay, to lead the way. Seems grand to be able to take the escalator to the fourth floor. '6Here we are. Letis let our mistress of ceremonies, Bette Hughes, take charge from here. HHello, everyone!
