But soon we leave, to choose a different pathway: And then-we'1l have the greater things to do.

She doesn't say very much, but when she does speak, everyone listens, for Hazel is usually right as her grades will show. Her many good qualities have won for her a host of friends. Vi H 57 J 112 HAROLD JENKINS Lefty Lefty is another member of the well-known Jenkins family. He seems to like baseball and was a member of the team for two years. He is well-liked among all the students, although he seems very quiet at times. ii: 'rn in u. in J- JOHN THOMAS Jack John is small but full to the brim with humor and good nature. In addition to this he can be more serious and thought- ful than most fellows we know. We expect John to get along well in life. if a BARBARA FAY E KING Class Play 3, 4g Class Treasurer 35 Girls' Glee Club 3, 4g Literary Society 4g Latin Club 2, 3, French Club 43 Girl Reserves 2, 3, 4g Girl Reserves-Hi-Y Play 4. Faye always seems to be very happy. We cannot imagine our class without her, for she has contributed a great deal to it in many ways. Faye always enjoys fun and as a result, she has many friends. .v-rqrr 11.2.-L MARY CAMPBELL Brownie Mary has the quality of being a real friend. She is always willing and glad to help when she is needed. We wish there were more Marys in our class in this respect. 8 -It Page twenty w THE DELPHIAN SENIORS CAROLINE STOLLER Callie Girl Reserves 4. This shy little lady is always so thoughtful and considerate of others that we are sure she hasn't an enemy anywhere. She doesn't try to create any excitement, but quietly goes along, do- ing her share in whatever task is placed upon ber. JOSEPH ROBINSON Joe Stage Manager for Senior Play. Joe has auburn hair but his tempera- ment is quite different. He is very jolly. Joe never speaks except when he has something worth while to say. We ad- mire you, Joe. 221 ANNE LUTHER Ann Girl Reserves 43 Glee Club 4. Anne never says much in any of her classes but she has the right school sp-irit and that means a great deal. Anne seems to enjoy life for she always appears happy. .. .4 L. DONALD DALLAS Don Hi-Y 45 Glee Club 49 Girl Reserves-Hi- Y Play 4. Don is very much interested in ath- letics, especially football, but he didn't quite manage to make the team. He is a happy-go-lucky fellow, and, is seem- ingly, without a care in the world. NAOMI KRAUSS Latin Club 1g Girl Reserves 2, 3, 43 French Club 43 Literary Society 4. Naomi has a very sweet manner, and is very seldom cross or grouchy. She surely seems to study for her grades are all high. Naomi never walks to school alone for Ted is always with her.

Everyone knows Toots. As busi- ness manager of the Delphian he cer- tainly has been a success. Toots was disabled during most of the football sea- son, but there was nothing wrong- with him when it came to playing basketball. JANE MILAR Milar Girl Reserves 1, 2, 3, 4, Glee Club 1, 3, 4, French Club 4, Basketball 3, Class play 3, 4, Girl Reserves-Hi-Y Play 4, Delphian Staff 4. Jane is a very unusual girl for there seems to be no end to her talents. As art editor for the Delphian she has surpassed all our hopes. To those who know Jane the O. S. U. pennant needs no explanation. :i fi CHESTER JENKINS Chet Baseball 3, 4, Football 4, Basketball 4, Class Play 3, 4, Class President 3, Delphian Staff 4, French Club 4. Chet can be described fully in one word versatility He is at home any- place he happens to be, in the classroom, on the basketball floor, or on the grid- iron. He has done his part in athletics ever since he has been in high school so we know that he will be missed next year. GERTRUDE RIES Dick Girl Reserves 3, 4, Literary Society 4, Latin Club 2, 3, 4, French Club 3, 4, Class Play 3, 4, Gertrude made herself very well known in The Belle of Philadelphia Town and Nancy Ann.

CHARLES OLMSTEAD Chuck Latin Club 3, 4, Baseball 4, Football 4, Senior Play 4, Vice-President Class 4, Delphian Staff 3, 4. Chuck is small but mighty! He is the Sunny Jim of our class. He is never without a smile and a cheery greeting for everyone. It is no wonder that he is everyone's favorite. He more than earned his football letter. 8 THE DELPHIAN SENIORS VIRGINIA STAUFFER Gin Girl Reserves 1, 2, 3, 4, French Club 33 Class Play 3. Gin always has a ready smile for everyone around her. She is a very good actress, too, as the success of The Belle of Philadelphia Town was largely due to her part in it. 25 lfil CRANSTON KNOUFF Cranny Hi-Y 4, French Club 4. Jolly with room for every joy, that person is Cranston. Cranston is expect- ing a gift from France soon, and then we believe he will really be joyous. We hope you will share some of that with us, Cranny. Bllitl LOIS HANNA Girls' Glee Club 3, 4g Latin Club 3, 4g Girl Reserves' 2, 3, 4, Class Play 3, 4, G. R.-Hi-Y Play 4. Lois is the little girl with the big smile. Although Lois is sometimes very quiet, she can have a merry time and giggle with the rest. Lois is always dependable and she has proved herself invaluable in our class. 1 EDGAR THOMAS EHRHART Ted Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 45 Football 45 Latin Club 23 French Club 4, Literary Society 1, 23 Glee Club 4, Hi-Y-G. R. Play 4. Ted is very active in our school. He played on our football team during his Senior year.

LOIS BLACKWOOD Latin Club 2, 3, French Club 4, Lit- erary Society 3, 43 Debating Team 43 Honor Club 2, 3, 4, Delphian Staff 45 Girl Reserves 2, 3, 4. Lois is as kind hearted a girl as ever lived. If you want to know anything in almost any subject, just ask Lois be- cause she is so good natured that she helps friend and stranger alike. Besides all this she's a really, truly, interesting friend that you want to cling to. Page twen ty-three E THE DELPHIAN vm, van Page twenty-four SENIORS EARL FISH Fish Football 4, Delphian Staff 4, Class President 4g French Club 4, Class Play 3. Earl is our distinguished class presi- dent and a better one could never have been found. He is a football man, and as assistant art editor of the Delphian, he has contributed much to its success. Earl has a smile for everyone. RACHEL LARIMURE Ray Glee Club 1, 2, 3, 45 Girl Reserves 2, 3, 4, Latin Club 2, 3, 4g French Club 3, 43 Basketball 3, G. R.-Hi-Y Play 45 Cheer Leader 4, Debate 45 Delphian Staff 3, 4. This fair haired maiden can make anyone, especially the boys, do as she wants them to do. She is at home any- where-in the classroom, on the basket- ball floor, in social affairs, in a debate and even in cheer leading. Ray's devo- tion to the Delphian has been the one great factor in its success. EUGENE WHITM ER Sheeny Boys' Glee Club 2, 3, 4g Hi-Y 2, 3, 4g Class Play 3g Hi-Y-G. R. Play 43 Band 3, 4, Orchestra 4, Track 1, 2, 3, 4, Foot- ball 4. Sheeny is a great deal of a sailor, for he has a sweetheart in every port. He has certainly contributed his share to N. P. H.

Francis is well liked by all his friends. He is quiet but we like him all the better because he is. As a football player, he certainly was a great success. We are proud of you, Francis. 28 THE DELPHlAN S E N I 0 R SW JESSE MILLER Jessie Hi-Y 3, 4, Senior Play 4, Latin Club 4. Jessie is a very quiet, unobtrusive boy, but as chairman of the social com- mittee, stage manager for Nancy Ann and assistant stage manager for Tulip Time, he has proved to be a valuable worker in our class. Jessie's smile wins him many friends. EHR! MARGARET JENKINS Peg Girl Reserves 2, 3, 45 Class President 25 Honor Club 2, 3, 49 Class Play 3, 4, G. R.-Hi-Y Play 49 Basketball 3.

Ttlliilfi BYRON W. COOK Cookie Class Basketball 3, 45 Baseball Man- ager 4. We are glad that Byron is graduating with our class. He has proved that he has ability as a manager through his services as manager of the baseball team. HHH BEATRICE RENNER Bee Girl Reserves 4. Bee is a quiet girl but she is very nice. Bee is a very dependable mem- ber of our class and she always has her lessons. She is a good sport and, be- cause of this, she is well liked by every- one. LYLE GRAY Lyle won the prize for burning up 1 the gas in his junk truck, perhaps that explains why we have not seen it lately. Both this truck and its driver were for- merly familiar to us but now it is the driver about whom we are concerned. Lyle has been a valuable asset to the class of '28. mmU DDQ I 9 2 8 llllllllIllllvlllllllllllllllllllrlllllf , All . -V.: Page twenty-Jive fg-gif-Q-tml-gyms-ss-2 THE DELPHIAN --,,.-,3 SENIORS ELIZABETH EVANS Betty Girl Reserves 2, 3, 43 Literary Society 43 Honor Club 3, 43 Delphian Sten- ographer 4.

Helen can always be depended upon to do anything which she is asked, she has never been known to shirk. PRESTON MURPHY IN MEMORIAM Preston was with us but a short time but we soon discovered that he had some very fine qualities. His life will ever be an incentive for us to seek the best there is. ifilifflilfl SARAH SMITH Sarah and Kathryn Tidrick are in- separable friends and where you see one, you usually see the other. Sarah is very friendly to everyone and she is an ex- cellent basketball player. HHH LUTHER EASTERDAY Clem Baseball 1, 2, 35 Basketball 35 fLees- ville High Scllooll.

George always shows his ability in history and everything else he under- takes including love, but then, All the world loves a lover. We do not believe George to be like Georgie Porgie Pud- ding and Pie who kissed a girl and made her cry and then ran away: this George would rather stay. f?j ..j N, .. MARGARET ACKERMAN Peg Orchestra 1, 2, 3, 45 Glee Club 2, 3, 4, Literary Society 2, 3, 4, Latin Club 2, 3, 43 French Club 3, 4, Girl Reserves-Hi-Y Play 45 Senior Play Peg is the girl who entertains us quite often in Chapel.

THE DELPHIAN T-7-T.l......1111I111.g1IQ-111 SENIORS ORPHA CRITES Critsie Girl Reserves 2, 3, 4. We can tell when Orpha is near by her laugh. She is always light-hearted and happy and we very seldom see her worried or frowning. Orpha can be seri- ous when occasion demands, though. IZ EIR ROBERT MORRISON Robert seems to think that silence is golden for he is very quiet about school. He studies hard and he does not give up without first making a hard effort. Robert has a good school spirit. 52 ,331 RUTH RALSTON Rudie Girl Reserves 2, 3, 4g Latin Club 2, 3, 43 Literary Society 45 Class Play 4.

LORN McCA RTNEY Mac Baseball 2, 3: Basketball 3g Junior Playg fLeesville Hig-h Schooll. Lorn is a new man. He has been so quiet since his arrival here that we have failed to know him very well.

Everybody listens when Florence re- cites and her suggestions and opinions are always respected. That Florence's hobby is music we have learned by hear- ing her vlay many times and by attend- ing Tulip Time. We believe that we shall regard Florence and her music in awe some day as we do Paderewski now. Page twenty-n e THE DELPHIAN .g'il.- SENIORS MERVIN McQUEEN Merv Merv decided that he would rather graduate with the class of '28 so he re- mained behind a year. We are glad that he did for we have enjoyed very much having him in our class. MARY JANE KINSEY Kinsey Girl Reserves 2, 3, 4. Mr. Kaylor says, Sometimes I call her Mary, sometimes Jane, so we will call her Kinsey. She is very quiet, but wide-awake, as her first semester exam grade in history showed. MARION WESTHAFER Marion works hard so we seldom hear him say, I don't know. He played on our football team in '26 and he always played well. We are glad he is a mem- ber of our class. iq in 90, .- GERTRUDE LEISER Gertie Gertrude is one girl we never hear much about. However, she seldom fails to recite in history, so she evidently spends a lot of time studying. We are glad you belong to our class, Gertrude.

WILLIAM GIBSON Bill Glee Club 45 Band 3, 45 Orchestra 45 Latin 'Club 2, 35 Class Play 3, 45 Minstrel 3, 45 Hi-Y 45 Track 4. Bill is a strong advocate of the doc- trine of All work and no play makes Bill a dull boy. Work fschool work that isb is a secondary matter in his young life. Bill's attention seems to be divided between the band, the pony fyes, Bill is the champion pony driver of the city? and somebody else, we need not tell you who. JUN E HU RST Hurstie Orchestra 15 Girl Reserves 45 Literary Society 45 Delphian Stenographer 4. June's winning ways and charming personality are well-known. She makes the most of every minute, that is the reason she always has her lessons. Her main center of interest lies outside of our schoolg nevertheless, she survives. EEE!

Everybody knows Walter because he is big, handsome, black-haired treasurer of our class and he is a good one too. He never undertakes anything that he can not accomplish. Walter seems rather particular in his tastes concerning cer- tain persons but we feel he will find the one soon.

Sally is always very lively and cheer- ful. We can see by her list of activities that she has been very active while in high school. What would the Class of l9l28 'have done without Sally and her .IO es. Page thirty-one THE DELPHIAN SENIORS KATH RYN TIDRICK Kathryn is a small, dark-hair, dark- eyed girl with a pleasant smile. As a member of the Senior g-irls basketball she is invaluable, and without her they could not have been the champions. ROBERT FRAZIER Bob French Club 4. Bob must be an optimist for we sel- dom see him when he is not smiling. Bob is very bashful, but he is popular among the members of the class. He also tries to convince us that he is a woman-hater. ETHEL GARABRAN DT We seldom hear Ethel say anything but quite often silence is golden. We are glad that Ethel has been a member og our class and we wish her success in li e. CURTIS LOMAX Hi-Y 49 Class Play 4. Curtis possesses one of the few real marcels now worn, but it detracts noth- ing from his good qualities. He is quiet but never seen without a smile which is as permanent as the curl in his hair. Curtis is a good fellow to have for a friend too. RICHARD M. GRIFFITH Rich Ass't. Student Athletic Manager 3, 45 Track Manager 43 Hi-Y 4. Richard studies very hard and we know that he talks only when he has something important to say. We wish some more were like him in this respect. m Page thi-rty-two THE DELPHIAN SENIORSR HELEN FOWLER Girl Reserves 2, 3, 4g Latin Club 3, 4. Although Helen likes to have a good time, she does not neglect her school work. Helen is a good sport and she had many friends. She is dependable and we can always count on her doing her share. BYRON BROWN By Byron is not very large nor does he make very much noise, but he has been a valuable asset to our class. We are glad he chose N. P. H. S. in which to secure his high school education. GENES VIRGINIA MAGRUDER Girl Reserves 4. Virginia is the living example of the saying Valuable things come in small parcels. Virginia is so small we hardly know that she is aboutg never- theless, she has occupied a big place in N. P. H. S. ever since she has been here. EDWARD MEARS Sheik Exhaust Staff 25 Literary Society 3, 43 Class Play 4. Edward is the person with the per- suasive voice that we always hear when we go to a debate.

F Page thirty-four THE DELPHIAN CLASS PROPI-IECY One afternoon at Central As the hour was growing late, I grew impatient at the errand For which I had to wait. I prowled about the silent hall Until I saw the stair, Which led to that mysterious realm The third floor-did I dare, To pry into that vacant place Once so full of life, And now the dusty, empty space Where ghosts may be so rife? A-tingle with excitement I mounted to find the freaks, Which might be on those windy days The cause of awful shrieks. Halfway up I groped in the dark At last, I was nearly there, When a flickering light from up above Caused me to stop and stare. Ere I could retreat to safety, Here to my terrified eyes, A dwarf appeared at the top of the stair With lantern half his size. He stopped and gaped, then grinned at me, For I had lost my voice. He held out one of his hands to meg I took it without choice. He led me to a darkened room, I moved as one entranced. And there about an old, bent dwarf, A hundred of them danced. They stopped and crowded closely When the dwarf and I went in, And the little old man in the center Bowed at me with a grin. With never a word, one by one, The dwarfs filed out and then- I found myself faced toward a screen Held by two little men. Upon the screen appeared June Hurst. I heard quite loud and plain, A voice from a radio horn at her side Broadcasting the World Series Game. The famous cousins Chet and Lefty Our basemen of great renown, With Byron Cook, the score keeper here, Are all from the same home town Next, I beheld a busy street. Byron Brown was the corner cop, And he strove to check a gath'ring crowd Before a department shop. Helen Alexander was. the causeg She demonstrated dyes And changed the hue of faded things Before their very eyes. Page thwty-live THE DELPHIAN The scene moved on inside the store And up and down the aisles, Trod the floorwalkers, Curtis Lomax And Jesse with his smiles. In the music stall, Mervin McQueen And Donald Dallas too, Were singing all the latest hits Performing as actors do. In the cashier's cage was Hazel Dienst, And then Mary Campbell I spied Behind the lunch counter with the chef, Whoi was Cranston Knouff, at her si e. Then a brilliant change of scene, A room of palatial mien In which I saw Betty McCreary Presented to a king and queen. Another room full of people came Upon that magic screen, And there before my eyes, appeared A city night club scene. George Hall, I found was proprietor, From a sign in the lobby and Toots Kobelt was head waiter there, Carl Minnideo led the band. But who was at the microphone Of their broadcaster speaking now? 'Twas Joe Robinson and strangely enough, I heard him but know not how. Page thirty-six He looked about the persons there And if a noted one he'd see, He would say a word or two About this celebrity. Bob Morrison, the movie-villain, Ed Mears, the sheik supreme, Bob Frazier, the world's best hu- morist, Florence Reidenbaugh, flapper queen. Beryl Givens, our stout stockbroker, Ray Baldwin, the history prof., Ethel Garabrandt, aviatrix Were some that he reeled off. Again my startled eyes beheld A change to a little town, The name of it was Brocklehurst The main street I looked down. I was shown the grocery store Where Dana Beans did appear, Behind the counter and her buyer Was Wilmer Maloney in farmer's gear. Farther down I saw in view, A square built brown stone bank, Walter Smith as its founder was Whom Brocklehurst had to thank. Around a corner in a yard Of a cozy neat white house. I saw who used to be Rex Roth, In the garden with her spouse. THE DELPHIAN Right next to her in a house of brick Florence Howard lived it seemed, A tall strong man smoking a pipe Was helping get house-cleaned. Then I saw the village school And welcomed more and more, Preston Murphy and Caroline Stoller Were its teachers of book lore. The last of Brocklehurst Went by Upon the fairy screen, And out upon a wide, white road I saw an inn, pale green. Gertrude Ries was owner Orpha Crites, kitchen maid, Lyle Gray was the handy man Rich Griffith sold orangeade. The screen moved on at a fearful pace Past houses, bridges, and farms, Until the city of Denham arrived With buildings all in swarms. At a large and stately church, The motion did subside And from the door a bride came forth, Jane Milar was that bride. The best man, Sheeny Whitmer, Opened the taxi door Driven by Luther Easterday While rice was showered o'er. Then once more the screen moved on, 'Till before a mammoth frame Of a mighty towering sky scraper, it stopped, Which put Woolworth's to shame. Up and up through halls and doors A hundred, so it seemed, The picture stopped at an office Where a myriad green lights gleamed. I recognized Mertie McConnell And Mary Henderson toog Behind low desks typewriting fast, Lois Blackwood a door came through, Which led to an inner office Bearing the president's name. I looked into this private room, And Earl Fish my eyes did claim. The girl at his desk, Betty Evans, His dictation did receive And the business manager behind them, Was George Weaver, I believe. The office then did vanish And a theater took its place, On the billboard I read M. Acker- man, Violinist of charming grace. Inside I saw Pauline Singer Ushering for the show. There were Ted and Naomi In the very thirteenth row. Page thirty-se an THE DELPHIAN Upon the stage an actress danced, I dumbly stared in awe At Virginia Stauffer, as she twirled, Scarce believing what I saw. The next performance was a clown, John Thomas I declare, And after this, a picture show, Peg Jenkins the heroine there. Then to the back of the stage I was shown. Virginia Magruder, the star, Was scolding Anna Luther and Ger- trude Lieser - Her maids. Stars usually are. In another lofty building, A lawyer's office now In which Bee Renner getting a di- vorce. Spoke to Lawyer Olmstead low. Across the hall another door Announced this printed line, Justice of the Peace, S. Banks, Hours from 12 to 9. Next to this was another door Ralston, the Alchemist On it was printed, and this too- Soaps and creams in a list. Back once more into the street I read a garage sign broad, McCartney's Service at all hours: Scott will repair your Ford. P ye thirty-eight Farther on a shop appeared, Mesdames Hanna and King. Inside, Mrs. Wallace inee Gibbsj I saw With her husband. They were shopping. Whirled away to the suburbs To a building large and gray, The Denham City Hospital 'twas, Where Doc Larimore did stay. Among the nurses, Sara Smith And Helen O'Connor, I found, Kathryn Tidrick and Mary Jane Kinsey Were also dashing around. Abruptly changed the magic screen To a stadium for sportsman's war, I picked out Marion Westhafer, coach, Francis Ankney a player-star. In another direction a race track With jockeys training there, Cne of them was William Gibson I recognized with a stare. A blinding flash, the screen threw off Then total darkness broke. An instant-all had vanished, when, As suddenly I woke. I rubbed my eyes and looked about. The room was full of light. Miss A. was calling me to rouse, For outside it was night. 1928 A IUVS N!

Bob played every game. HENRY YAGGI- J oe Pitcher In the Struther's game Joe showed that he was a pitcher' not to be looked down upon because that victory can be credited to Joe. JOHN JONES- Zeke Left Field ' , Baseball is Zeke's game because size doesn't matter at all. He could catch flies and bat with equal ability. We are sorry that this is his last year. - CARL MEISER- Meiser ' Left Fielder : Meiser was always cutting-up and having a good time but, just the same, he always did his part to help the cause along. ADOLPHUS HENSEL- Hensel Right Field Pleasure before work was Hensel's motto so he was always ready to take part in any kind of a game. This is how he got into baseball. He was a valuable man. 1 HAROLD JENKINS- Lefty Short Stop Lefty could play any position even pitching, but his regular posi- tion was short stop. He was also a dependable man at the bat. DEAN SMITH- Dean Third Base Dean was a third baseman who could get any grounder within his reach and throw to first with never a miss. FRED MINOR- Bud Second Base This was Bud's first year on the team and he proved a very valu- able man. Bud helped all he could, last year to make a good season. STEPHEN THOMAS- Steve First Base Steve caught every ball that was thrown to him whether a pick-up or on the fly. This is SteVei's last year on the team. WILLIAM DOIDGE- Bill Pitcher This is Bill's second year with the team and he still has two more years. He was the only left hander on the team and his arm won several games for N. P. H. S. CHESTER JENKINS- Chet First Base This was Chet's first year on the baseball team but his playing was very good. We all wish Chet good luck next year. A MR. J. A. BAKER- Baker Coach Baker turned out one of the best baseball teams N. P. H. S. has ever had. He surely knows his baseball. We all wish Baker good luck in the BYRON COOK- Gobo Manager Gobo was a very dependable manager. He was at every baseball practice and helped in every way he could. future. Page fifty-three ggEE E THE DELPHIAN TRACK 1927 Douglas, Eugene A.,.. Captain Downes, Bryce Knisely, Charles Givens, Beryl Shaffer, Harley Kimball, William Whitmer, Eugene Track is one of the minor sports of the high school, but it prepares athletes for the two major sports, football and basketball. In all athletics a boy must be physically fit and mentally alert, these are the funda- mentals of track. Our track team this year, headed by Captain Douglas, took part in only two meets. The first was with Massillon and the other was the district meet at New Concord. At New Concord the boys took third place, and several of them made new district records. We hope that more in- terest Will be taken in track in the years to come.

P. H. S. 6 vs. ST. IGNATIUS 19 It was a good game considering that it was the first Varsity game for all but two of the boys. Everbody was satisfied' with the score. The first touchdown of the year was scored by f'Chet Jenkins. N. P. H. S. 0 vs. ORRVILLEL 24 The greatest disaster that N. P. H. S. ever faced. Nuf Sed. N. P. H. S. 0 vs. CANTON 46 Canton, one of the strongest teams in the state, was checked after the first quarter. In the last three periods they scored only three touchdowns fone each quarterl. N. P. H. S. 12 vs. GRANVILLE 26 Although Granvi1le's goal line had not been crossed for three years, the patched up Red and Black outfit scored twice on them. The teamas a whole showed improvement. Injuries kept several regulars on the side- lines. N. P. H. S. 7 vs. MASSILLON 13 With Kobelt back in the lineup it was an altogether different team that went on the field. Penalties played a big part in the game. Our boys made their touchdown on a series of plays from the middle of the field. N. P. H. S. 19 vs. UHRICHSVILLE 6 The Uhrichsville fans and team came to the county seat with the expectations of winning but they went home very disappointed. Erhart and Noble, the latter, playing against his last year's teammates, played a very spectacular game. The team played the best brand of football that it had played all season. N. P. H. S. 0 vs. DOVER 0 Although Dover outweighed us at least ten pounds to the man, we made up the weight in the scrap that we had. Dover was a two to one favorite but most of the playing was done in their territory. Ankney's kicking was the big feature of the game. A good ending is better than a good start and a bad ending. . Page fifty-seven gg THE DELPHIAN DONALD NOBLE Red Captain and End Donald was the only red head on the team this year. Red was liked by every member of the team. They showed their app-roval of him when they elected him captain. He was the outstanding defensive player in every game that he played and he could catch passes when the team needed a few yards for a first and ten. CHARLES OLMSTEAD Chuck Quarterback This was Chuck's first year and last year to play football for New Phila- delphia. He was one of the smartest quarterbacks in the countyg he could carry the ball from scrimmage or re- ceive punts with equal ability. Chuck was the Frosty Peter of our high school team. FH ESTER JENKINS Chet Halfback 'tChet was one of the headiest foot- ball players that N. P. H. S. ever had. The manner in which he backed up the line was spectacular. He displayed his most brilliant playing in the Uhrichs- ville game. We hope that his future may be as successful as his football career. V ITT an FRED ALEXANDER Aleck Center This was Aleck's first year on the team but being only in the eleventh year, he has another year to play football for New Philadelphia High School. Aleck hardly ever had a bad pass and played an excellent game on defense. EARL FISH Fish Guard The team cduld always depend on Earl to open up a hole or to break up the opponents' plays. Earl's last name is Fish but his opponents didn't think so. Earl never knew what the word quit meant and always fought till the end of the game. AHA--vrgmlnlggggilyml iiif I 9 2 8 Page fifty-eight was-zfmgiQm THE DELPHIAN EDGAR ERHART Ted Tackle Ted was one of the scrappiest play- ers on the line and could always break up the opponents plays. He had two had habits: one was biting his opponents and the other was using a foreign lang- uage but both surely kept up the fight on the team. IG R N l+lS'l' W H EATL E Y Ernie Guard Even if Ernie was smaller than any of his opponents, he made up the stature and weight by the fight he had. Al- though Ernie was out with an injury the first part of the year, he made up for lost time when he did get back. He has still another year in school. Good luck next year, l'1rnie . IIONALD KNAUSS Don Tackle Don was the only triple threat man on the team. He could throw passes and out punt any of his opponents, as Uhrichsville found out. He is a player with big- hands and big feet so he ought to be a walk away next year. LAWRENl'l-I CAREY Big Tent Tackle 'tCarey was the heavy man on the team which fact all of his opponents realized. He was known as Big Tent by the squad. Carey has two more years to show his wares for N. P. H. S. Good luck next year. Big Tent. W ,, JONAS RUHRBACH Jonie Halfback Although 'tJonie did not play regu- larly on the team the first of the year, he had earned a permanent position by the end of the year. He has two more years in which to develop into one of the best backs that Phila. High ever had .,...,.-HHl I 9 2 8 Page fifty-nine HARLEY SHAFFER Harley End Harley is also a regular from last year, His experience from last year proved a great help to the team this year. Harley was a wide awake wing- man and could play tackle if called upon. We will not have Harley next year but we hope that some one just as good will fill his shoes. .i xr .- WALTER SMITH Walt Tackle Walt was one of the two regulars from last year and with his weight and fight, held down his part of the line very well. We hope that he will be able to do for some college team what he has done for New Philadelphia High. J- vp, , EUGEN E WHITMER Sheeny Halfback Sheeny was the fastest man on the teamg his speed was not only a threat but also a great advantage to the team. This was his first year at the game of football but under Dutch's coaching he learned very fast. LAWRENCE KOBELT Touts Fullback Toots had very bad luck this year. He broke his collar bone in practice and then again in the Massillon game. Touts would have been a very valu- able man on the teamg this fact was shown by the way the boys played in the Massillon game with him in the game. FRANCIS ANKNEY Ank Ank could play in the backfield or on the line. The first part of the year he played in the hackfield and did about all the kicking for the team but Dutch saw that he was of more value on the line so in the last few games he was stationed at left guard. This is his last year in high school.

Newcomerstown had a good team and they gave us plenty of practice. Toronto 12-N. P. H. S. 23. This was the first Class A high school that we played and the boys went through with it in good style. Toronto 17-N. P. H. S. 26. This time we played Toronto on their own floor and proved to them that we had the better team. Massillon 39-N. P. H. S. 8. The lack of experience and the big floor brought about our downfall. Massillon surely had a good team. Dover 26-N. P. H. S. 13. It surely looked doubtful for Dover in the first quarter but after Beitner and Jones got started, we were lost. Canton 49-N. P. H. S. 15. We had only one game with Canton and they came down to get revenge for the defeat that we gave them last year. Massillon 41-N. P. H. S. 8. Too much Elum. This slick forward could put them in from any place on the floor. Millersburg 13-N. P. H. S. 43. After having been defeated several times in succession, the boys came back to former style and showed the fans that they really could play basketball. Wooster 22-N. P. H4 S. 26. This was a fast and furious game and Wooster led till the last few minutes of play. Kobelt made the basket that put us ahead. Zanesville 31-N. P. H. S. 19. Zanesville came with one of the strong- est teams we hadf played but not until the last quarter was the victory decided. Uhrichsville 20-N. P. H. S. 19. This surely was, a thriller. The boys played a good game considering the place they play in. The place was the little animal cage in Uhrichsville. Akron West 56-N. P. H. S. 26. Russ Beichly brought the strongest team in Akron down here. They had not yet been defeated. N. P. H. S. gave them a run for their money in the first second, and third quarters. Uhrichsville 16-N. P. H. S. 26. During the first quarter, the game looked as if it would be close but the second half was a walk away for N. P. H. S. with Jenkins leading in scoring. Marietta 27-N. P. H. S. 36. Our boys went out for revenge for the defeat that they received at Marietta last year. Wooster 24-N. P. H. S. 31. Just a week before Wooster came down here, they defeated the strong Massillon team so they thought they could defeat us but they had to go home with the short end of the score. Dover 31-N. P. H. S. 15. Dover thought they had fish but they found out different. They had to go the limit to win. The biggest crowd that was ever in the legion hall witnessed the game. Coshocton 26-N. P. H. S. 14. Weakened by the absence of Donald Knauss and Coach Pfeiffer, the team had to bow to the attack of Coshocton. Tournament St. Clairsville 23-N. P. H. S. 33. The boys played good basketball. The East Liverpool 26-N. P. H. S. 11. For the second game at the tourna- ment we had to play East Liverpool who after defeating us, later won the tournament. Page sixty-three THE DELPHIAN 5 vt Page sixty-four 192 CALVIN PFEI FFER Dutch Coach Dutch had one of the biggest tasks that any coach could have. That was to make a basketball team with but one letter man. He did it to the best of his ability. The team had a good sea- son. We all wish Dutch better luck next year. RUSSELL BORN Born Manager He was known as Manager Born by the squad. Although Born did not attend every practice, he always made sure that one of his assistants was there. Born's big feature was the ad- vertising of the games on the library board. H ARLEY SH AFFER Swede Center 'tSwede was the only letter man on the team. He played in every game and because of his height, he was of great value in getting the ball oil' the back- boards. l DONALD KNAUS Don Guard Don was the back bone of our team and without him the whole team seemed to be lost. This was the first year he ever played basketball but under Dutch he learned very fast and was one of the best players, ..- CHESTER JENKINS Chet Forward Chet was the high point man of the team. His scoring ability was un- canny. All the opposing teams always said, Watch Jenkins and then we can beat 'em. We all wish Chet lots of luck in college. 8 THE DELPHIAN 1Tm1ffIU11.jQ GLEN HURST Skipper Forward Skipper is tall, lean, and lanky and of the stuff that makes any team. Al- though Skipper was not able to play with the Varsity until the second sem- ester, he made up for lost time when he did get to play. Rf IBICRT RHIN EHA RT Bob Guard This was Bob's first year on the Varsity and he surely made a name for himself. You could always depend on him to do his part and whenever a basket was needed, Bob usually got it or helped to get it. LAWRENCE KUBELT 'l'o0ts Guard Although Toots didn't play regu- larly on the team the first part of the year, with hard work and determina- tion he earned his position by the end of the year. Toots was always in the game fighting and always managed t0 get his one basket during a game. WILLIA M SH ELLEY Bill Forward This was Bill's first year on the team, Since he is only a Sophomore, he has still two more years in which to do his part in athletics. Bill was an ey- cellent shot and was always ready to do his part. asm l928 0 Page sixty-five Page sixty-six E THE DELPHIAN I OUR if xi ,.'6f5lxCf2m31 A - Ww e ffl fx 1 S'!

Last Saturday Uncle Dave gave me permission to accompany him in a raid on the Travis home. He told me I should manage the dreadful Chuck. I entered the house, armed only with a safety pin and a water gun, but with a look of defiance in my eyes. Whomp should I meet first, but Chuck himself! My knees shook, my hands trembled, my hair stood on end, and I shivered, but there we stood face to face! A ferocious battle ensued, and I emerged, the Victor. After searching his pockets, all I found Was a lone red penny and this- My Freshman Diary SEPTEMBER 8-Ain't high school grand? 12-Not so's you can notice it!

'wi - Page eighty-six THE DELPHIAN NEW DRINKING FOUNTAIN S Although no action has ever been taken on it, the statement has often been made that the New Philadelphia Senior High School should be equipped with drinking fountains which will not throw water all over one when he wishes to quench his thirst. A Such a case as this might arise: a boy is rather late for class. He wishes to get a drink of water. He steps on the button and receives a shower of water. He then must dry his face and clothes. This delay makes him late for his class. When our parents come to visit the school, they may be thirsty. Imagine the surprise they will get when, instead of a nice steady How of water, a column of water comes gushing out with enough force to drench the ceiling. A thing like that is as bad as trying to get a drink from one of the great geysers of Yellowstone National Park. Such things must be stopped, and the only way to stop them is to get new fountains in the New Philadelphia High School. -Churchill Cooke, '29 A NEEDED' IMPROVEMENT The beauty of a city stimulates pride among its citizens,-a city with lovely, well-kept lawns, clean lots, well-painted buildings, and stately, graceful trees. There are, throughout the country, certain men whose business is trimming trees but these men only succeed in killing the trees or destroy- ing their beauty. Perhaps these men have had no training or perhaps they have no love of beauty and nature. Such men should, at least, not be permitted to butcher the trees so. that they look like crippled hands stretched upward praying for mercy. I believe New Philadelphia would be greatly improved if it did not have so many trees of this kind. The town should select a tree commission made up of men and women who want to beautify the city, as well as to preserve the trees, and to furnish a home to the birds. This commission should have the power to appoint men to take care of all the trees within the city. These men should, of course, be authorized tree surgeons and tree trimmers. This commission should be supported by regular ap- propriations made by the town. Donations from individual citizens who are interested in this work would be very acceptable. Surely the citizens of New Philadelphia have pride enough in their town and love for their homes and the community to do their part in advancing the beauty of the city. If a few set the example, the majority will follow their steps. -Julia Harris, '29 ' Page eighty-seven I age My-ei t I THE DELPHIAN MY AMBITION An ambition is something that one wants to accomplish before he dies, or within a certain period of time. One usually neglects his other work in order to develop that one thing. Lindbergh had an ambition to become a fiyerg Edison had an ambition to become a scientist, and Schumann, had an ambition to become a musician. Over in India the people have an ambition to go to the Ganges River and wash away their sins. But my ambition is of a different nature. It is to go to a moving picture show and sit there during the whole per- formance and not have anyone around who is continually reading the titles aloud, screaming when the hero is trapped, hitting me on the back of my head with a piece of tinfoil, or cracking his gum all the time. While I am peacfully watching the pictures, someone is reading the titles aloud to me. He must think I don't know my alphabet. Just about the time he subsides, the pictures show the hero being attacked by a lion. Then some girl sends forth such a piercing shriek that I am frightened half out of my wits. While I am still in a dazed condition, someone back of me hits my head with a paper wad and makes me blink. Then in the other end of the row a girl cracks her gum and I look up to see if the hero shot the lion. Suddenly the organ strikes up a familiar tune and somebody keeps time with his foot while another person whistles the tune. These actions are all unforgivable. A person could surely enjoy the show without whistling, stamping, reading the titles out loud, cracking his gum, or pelting somebody on the back of the head. But we shouldn't object too strenu- ously because they're having their fun out in their own way. -Robert Fair, '29 l928 THE DELPHIAN ATTENTI ON! It won't be long now has become a certainty.

And while sitting there trying to study, I could hardly keep awake. My eyelids closed but opened again, When a scene before me appeared, A great battle seemed to be waging, 'Tis the fall of Constantinople, I heard. Then I see a beautiful woman, Her bright-colored garments she vaunts, And as she walks toward me she speaks in low v I'm the spirit of the Renaissance. Next appears a ship on the ocean, In the prow a lone man doth stand, Gazing out over the water so far, Then he suddenly cries, Land, land. From then on the ocean is dotted With vessels from every port, From Germany, England, Spain, and France Come people of every sort. They settle on the coast of the new land, From Maine to Florida's extreme, But over them all whether Swedish or Dutch Rule the kings of England supreme. Tyranny enters the reign of those kings, The colonists are being oppressed, And everywhere, both in the North and in South Are dissatisfaction-unrest. No taxation without representation, Are Patrick Henry's words, But in answer Act upon Act is laid, Their very freedom girds. Independence of England is now declared, The people arise in arms, While over the whole new country Are ringing the war alarms. In revolts of Lexington and Concord Comes the Spirit of 76. The army must have a Commander-in-Chief g George Washington Congress picks. oice THE DELPHIAN Now, a cold Christmas night in '76, When the river is floating with ice, Washington crosses the Delaware, Washington takes the Hessians by surprise. The turning point is at Saratoga, It's the greatest victory by far, When Horatio Gates meets General Burgoyne, And takes six thousand prisoners of war. At Yorktown, Washington now sees his chance, He hastens south with his men, While the French guard the mouth of Chesapeake Bay, Cornwallis, on all sides hemmed in. Independence is won, the war is endedg But are we through with struggle and strife? There are many problems presenting themselves, As this nation begins its new life. At Philadelphia, a convention is held, There are fifty-five delegates there, The Constitution of the United States Is drawn up with the greatest of care. And the law must take its courseg The Constitution goes into effect, As the first executive of the new nation Washington the people select. He deals with affairs both at home and abroad, In a manner wise and firm, In realization of his efficiency He is chosen for a second term. But here the vision seems to fade, And I awake with a start, Accompanied by a comfortable feeling, That I know my history by heart. Next morning, prepared to take the test, For which the vision helped me to cram, I found that those things which appeared in the dream Were not asked for in the exam. -Rachel Larimore, '28 ' Page ninety-one .
