E. E. CHURCH Four years ago, when the June class of '34 entered the ninth grade of this school, a new principal was here to direct us. Mr. Church came to Parkersburg High School from Martinsburg in l9'5O, These past tour years have been especially difficult ones lor the public school systems everywhere, but under the guidance of Mr. Church our school has progressed steadily. Since coming to Parkersburg he has served as President of the State Educational Asociation and Vice President of the National Association of Second- ary School Principals. Q-1-L-ies-fw rw' MR. L. S. MICHAEL Mr. L. S. Michael. assistant principal, has been a great help to us in selecting our curriculum during our high school career, and in keeping us at our work. Although many of us remember long hours of sus- pense outside the door of his oflice. there are few who do not feel that the conference which followed the waiting has permanently benefitted them. Vvle, the members of the graduating classes, wish to take this opportunity to express our gratitude and appreciation to him for his valuable assistance.

Q' o Qiln emnrmm Georgia Williams On August 28th, 1932, at the age of sixteen, our beloved Georgia Williams passed away. Until the time of her death Georgia was a member of the January 1934 class. She was pleasant and courteous to her teachers and fellow students. In her studies she was ambitious and conscientious, winning the respect of all. She has left us behind, but in our hearts there is still a little corner in which her memory will always remain. The entire class expresses its deepest sympathy to those who were dearer to her in life than we know, her family. Robert Wright On June the 24th, 1931, the students of Parkersburg High School received the shock of Robert Wright's drowning. H while swimming in the vicinity of Blennerhassett Island, was pulled under by an undercurrent. His cousin who was with him during the afternoon did not happen to be near him at the time of the mishap. Robert was a very quiet sort of person whom everybody liked. He worked hard at his studies and took a real interest in making a success of hisschool-life. The class extends to his parents its sympathy in their loss of a 'devoted son page fifteen 91 ,,' , Q ,,1, 9 :dl ' , ,,.,,,, r . - -nba, a .adm .sm.:.

However, because of the cold weather which usually accompanies midyear graduation time, the January class held its outing on October 10th, 1933, at the Masonic Park at Marietta, Ohio. The early part of the afternoon was spent in games such as baseball, pitching quoits, and making use of the amusement facilities, namely, teeters. swings, and the like. After tiring themselves with these amusements which are supposed to be almost forgotten by dignified seniors. a delightful picnic supper, consisting of all those necessary details which make a successful picnic. was served. COLOR DAY g Each year the graduating class of Parkersburg High School has set aside one day of its program as Color Day. Accordingly on Novem- ber 8, the members of the January class of '34 displayed their class colors of blue and silver, and presented a delightful assembly program for the enjoyment of the entire student body. For the presentation, the stage was artistically decorated in the colors of the class. The program consisted of popular selections played by the Blennerhassett Islanders, and others by several of the Senior II's. At the close of school the class flag which floated by the side of the American emblem, was slowly lowered, and another day of joy in the lives of the graduates passed on, leaving a beautiful memory. ikim.. nm. at .,.-'.'a.grm.i'ut......tr..'1 page twenty-num Bunce-Fartquei 'U e arlymchan page twenty-eight SENIOR TEA DANCE Instead of the usual afternoon tea which the Senior I girls give for the Senior II girls, the entire graduating class was entertained on Saturday, January 20th, with a tea-dance in the high school gymna- sium. The gym was effectively decorated with blue and silver stream- ers suspended from the balcony. Receiving the guests were the class sponsors, Miss Bonnie Kerr. Miss Ethel Musgrave, and Mr. A. C. Taylor, and several prominent officers of both classes. Mrs. E. E. Church presided over the punch bowl. During the early part of the afternoon a delightful program was presented by talented members of the Senior I class. From three to five o'clock a dance program was played by the Hottentots. JUNIOR-SENIOR BANQUET On Tuesday evening, January 23, the Junior II class entertained the mid-year graduates with the annual Junior-Senior Banquet. This year, dancing was added to the evening's entertainment. The music was furnished by the Blennerhassett Islanders. The Seniors were received in the library by the class sponsors, school officials, and class officers. Following the reception they Went to the gymnasium which had been transformed for the occasion into a lovely Winter Place. ' Between the banquet and the dance, the guests were entertained in the auditorium with an enjoyable program. ' 4 .- ..

After looking all over the building for the auditorium we found it hiding on the second floor. From this place we were assigned to our home rooms. On being settled at our work, we began the grind to last through four years just for the prized bit of paper-a diploma. Imagine the disgust of our whole class when, instead of becoming Freshmen Two's, we were classed as 9A's, of the Junior High. At last we were sophisticated sophomores. But there was no time to be proud of the fact, because we were engrossed, or lost, in the mazes of Geometry. Latin. or other uninteresting subjects. In fact some of our members almost became walking libraries when carrying books home. Now we could really be proud. The reason? We were Juniors. XVe elected James Keenan president of our class. The event,of greatest importance in our Junior Year was the Junior-Senior Banquet. Under the direction of Miss Neal and Miss Waller the banquet proved a great success. The setting was in Spain, with senoritas, guitars, and all the trimmings. A few days after this, we became a great and dignified class of Seniors. The class was not great in numbers, because it had dwindled to 102. This semester sped by on wings. Finally we had reached the noble and exalted position of Senior II's. Oh, how jealously the boys watched that front door! Many a lad was ejected for trying to rush the entrance. With a little high-powered campaigning on the side, the following officers were elected at one meeting: Bernard Wright, Presi- dent: Conard Jones, Vice-President: Yvonne Sturm, Secretary, and Betty Hay- man, Treasurer. Color Day was first of the series of events. On that day all Senior Il's wore strips of blue and silver ribbon, our class colors. The whole class wonders how the cameras sustained the shock when our pictures were taken. Finally came three events in one week: Sermon, banquet, and com- mencement. What a great thrill that was on the night of January 26 to receive that diploma, a certificate for four years' work. The illustrious CU Class of January, 1934, hopes that it has shown the way to faltering sopho- mores or juniors-the way to a diploma and success. VIRGIL NAPIER.

Just ten years ago the 1934 January class of Parkersburg High School graduated. Being interested in those young men and women graduates, we thought we would investigate and find out just what had become of them. This is what we found: Betty Bauer is the editor-in-chief of the Murphytown Daily News. Since Betty's ap- pointment to the position, the town has become Very famous. Betty Anne Congrove is now an agent for the Southeastern Life Insurance Company. Bernard Wright is working for the Blonde Manufacturing Company, of which Mr. Blonde is President. fBlondes always did seem to be his choicej. Emily Weaver is still seen places with her many admirers. She hasn't decided on any special one, as yet. Poor fellows! I bet she has at least a dozen diamonds Kay Downing has returned from England where she met her Duke. John Mackey is now a famous Congressman from Arguem County. Go to it, John. You may win yet. Genevieve Kincade is head stenographer in the rapidly growing Parkersburg Ice Com- pany. Incidentally Jiggs says this isn't such a hot business. Max Jackson and Ashford Broadwater are doing their duty as coaches for Belpre Tech. Don Hughes, much to the surprise of everyone, graduated from college in the usual four years. What happened? How did you do it, Shirley? Mary Ellen Jones and Ruth Sims are now starring in Lucille Joerger's newest play. That's fine. But how did they do it? Yvonne Sturm and Frances Penn are competing with Ethel Shutta and Leah Ray for radio honors. Poor Ethel and Leah, you haven't a chance now! Mary Louise Orrahood has taken Miss Waitneight's place at P. H. S. There are very few absentees now, but we notice that Mary Louise still puts Miss in front of her name. Joe Costilow and Bill Eouts are playing in a new stage production at Pettyville. They tried playing in Parkersburg but the competition was too keen. Jimmy Keenan now owns his own newspaper. Phyllis Greene is head of the advertis- ing department. Marian Bartlett and Betty Stewart are store managers in Kresge's newest store at Vienna. Meredith Ayers is no longer single. She finally took Bill and is living happily in two rooms. Mary Ruth Beckwith has finally gotten her Mutt and is now playing Loose on Broadway. Dolores Bee is head of the Extensive Library in Williamstown. She is very fond of her position and we are sure that in another 10 years she will be at the head of Dear Ol' P. H. S. Juanita Bennett and Gladys Bower have a very elite dress shop in Smithville. It takes all papa's month's pay to buy a dress there. So we've heard! Poor Papa! Kenny Caplinger is the chef for the Killem Cafe Syndicate. Making any money, Kenny? Then we saw Opal Carder and Madaline Freeman. Well, you'd never guess it, but they are heads of a candy and chewing gum factory. They can now help themselves to refresh- m6ntS. page thirty-two Ulge fat-liischun Glass Hrnplyng CLASS PROPHECY CContinuedD Violet Chambers and Betty Hayman have won several typing medals. They are both working on the Puddlebury Paper with Popeye. How are the Bruiser Boys, eh. Gals? Elizabeth Ciault and Mary Bridges are still in Vienna and they seem satisfied to be run- ing a drug store! l I I Disappointed in love? ? ? ? Ruth Turley has realized her school-day ambition and is now an opera star. More power to you. Marie Hitt has enlarge-d her beauty shop till it is now the largest in Belleville. We wonder what happened to Nile? ? ? We found Wilhelmina Samuels still trying to catch up on sleep. We wonder if she ever will? Lillian Kelley and Jessie Roush are managing branches of the 5 and 10 cent stores. Is the candy good, girls?

Since this was the first class dance to be given in the school, the Seniors and their friends especially enjoyed it. This dance was given in the gym to the music of the Hottentot orchestra. - SENIOR TEA DANCE The June graduating class was honored by a tea dance, given for them by the Senior I's on Friday afternoon, June 1, 1934. The gymnasium was made attractive with decorations of cerise, black, and silver, which are the Senior II class colors. During the short intermission, punch and wafers were served. Interspersed with the dances were several variety numbers which added greatly to the enjoyment of the music. The orchestra was exceptionally good, making the Senior farewell dance an altogether delightful and memorable affair. THE PICNIC On May 31, the members of the June class enjoyed a picnic at the Masonic Park on the Muskingum River near Marietta, Ohio. The members of the class drove to the picnic park about two-thirty in the afternoon. Several interesting out-door games were indulged in before the picnic supper was served at five-thirty, p. m. Both students and faculty members who were present seemed to enjoy thoroughly the repast, which included the usual picnic goodies Time passed all too quickly, and the drive home through the cool night air ended the delight- ful June Senior picnic. page fifty-ming 3 ' 5 .5 Q ., A ii.. i -A page sixty gtiffm' gxcfifiiiies Farhmghan JUN1oR.sEN1oR BANQUET On the evening of June 4th, the Junior II class entertained the Senior II class with a beautiful banquet in the High School gymnasium, which was decor- ated to represent a Japanese garden by moonlight. From the balcony were suspended colorful Japanese lanterns. Irises were used for centerpieces on the small tables at which the guests were seated. The orchestra was seated behind a sparkling fountain. i A delicious menu-more American than Japanese-was served by kimona- garbed Sophomores. The program carried out the oriental note, but American- ism was conspicuous in the dance which followed the banquet. COLOR DAY On April fourth the June graduating class observed their color day, a semi- annual event in the school. The day began with an assembly program presented to the school by the seniors. 1The program was divided into two parts, the first of whichiconsisted of musical selections given by members of the Senior II class. The second part was presented by a group of Tommy Cox's dancers. The stage was decorated with the class colors. which were worn during the day by the Senior II's. Our flag flying before the school. proclaimed the colors of the June graduating class of 1934 to be black, cerise, and silver. CLASS SONG As we reflect on our memories dear. And when We think of our senior year We'll always live the rules of our dear school As we're drifting on. To your memory We'll be true After we have gone: We will always think of you Singing your dear songs, But now we must say good-by to you And as we leave our dear school A We will take our places in the world Where ever duty rules. Words and music by Thurl Nelson. vW The Hai-hiarljan Qllass Htstnrg CLASS HISTORY The curtain rose on the first act of our drama of high school life. As the Class of '34, we entered P. H. S. as sophomores, amid the usual excitement and glamour of at last be- coming a part of that great institution and obtaining a little notice. Our part as sopho- mores was merely to work backstage, and although we received little acclaim. being seldom before the footlights, with a curtain call almost unknown to us, it was thrilling just to be in such an environment, to know that we were playing a bit and would step into more important characterizations. The second act began, and as Juniors we were just beginning to be noticed in the lime- light. As upperclassmen, we were expected to adopt a more important role and fill it with all the ingenuity and vigor characteristic of such players. The first step was the organiza- tion of committees for the Junior-Senior Banquet which we gave in honor of the Class of '33. Each committee assumed certain duties and together we formed the plan of enter- taining our guests on a ship. The setting provided a background for a realistic scene with life preservers and the ship's flag hanging aloft. Our role as hosts and hostesses was brought to a successful close--by the presentation of the Blennerhassett Islanders, who played a dance program for all guests at the banquet. As Juniors we had earnestly understudied every action of the experienced Seniors, and were thus ready to step forward to the front of the stage as Seniors. Then we played the leading role in our great drama of high school life. Before we could attempt to carry the show further, the cast had to be fully organized and capable directors found. With Miss Bonnie Kerr as sponsor, and William Turley filling the role of President, our final act began. A tea-dance was the first production. Being the first of its kind to be presented, it was especially successful and found credit in the eyes of our critics, thus making possible several other dancing entertainments, among them a Senior II Dance. and the tea-dance and banquet given in our honor. One highly interesting scene of the drama was the play Girl Shy, which included a superb cast and proved a source of great entertainment. Thus the players traveled rapidly toward their goal. guided by their motto, Upward and Onward, and finding real joy in bringing their drama to a close. With the sermon and commencement came the close of those years spent in high school. We were not sorry to complete our work, but will remember it all with fond recollections. The curtain falls! The last act has ended, and the players turn to say au revoir to their drama. It is not easy to bid farewell to fellow-players who so diligently assisted in our attempts to reach fame. Every player began as an extra: some were finds and became the leading characters, but each performed such a splendid role that our production was successful. So with all fidelity and vitality characteristic of the Class of 1934, let each player Act well his part, there all the honor lies. With jubilant voices, let us cry, On with the show!

W t x CLASS PROPHECY Above, you see the wonderful invention of Professor Goofery A. fDizJ Peachfuz, DDI, CWA, and NRA. The Prof. sat up many nights after his second cup of stale coffee and as he was counting sheep he fell upon this inven- tion. The machine is for counting stars. The magnet attracts the stars and as they jump over the fence the night stick hits them: they fall, and they are then ground to star dust. the finger counts them as The Professor became attracted by the magnet and as a result you see him counting the stars. The first star is William CBillj Turley. He is coaching the Girls' American Basketball Team. We knew him as the Trinity Ace. And Dick Smith is still asking i'Tuz and Bob whom he can go out with.

It is necessary to offer one's best in order to continue across the well-known bridge. This group of young men and women possessed of such remarkable generosity, freedom of speech, and other valuable virtues, are about to make their sacrifices in order to assist the future candidates of the Senior II class who may not be so fortunate as to call such extraordinary endowments their own. Ho, hum, yawns the old toll collector, with a stretch of his weary limbs. I guess this job will never end. Here comes the class of '34 already. I have a contribution for the good of the cause, old man, exclaims Wil- liam Turley, with that Little Lord Fauntleroy look in his eye. What's that, young man, may I ask? I offer the ability of our class to break up any meetingaregardless of the nature. n That's an old school tradition, William, and I'll just pass it on to the class of '35. Posey Steele: I will my 'hold him tight' ability to Julia Ford. Jack McCarthy: I will let someone else go with Helen when I am gone. Eleanor lVIcCluer: I will my 'come hither, Marietta Boy' to any lonely Parkersburg girl. . Bill Schneider: I leave my nose to Jimmy Lehmann and David Hagen. We know they can hold it down, Bill. Serious Meed: HI leave my serious-mindedness to my little sister Regina. Lu Mahanna: Fanny Deem can take my place in writing the next poem. Beauty Davis: I leave my cunning ways and pretty smile, showing my teeth, to Bud Rittenhouse. f Joanne Withee: I will my original spring dancing to Nell Jean Heermansf' x Qllaus mill .KQ- page sixty-Eve .vit - ,r f ,IJ .,v I if 'z Y. if Glass Mill I page sixty-six ff . mire Farlpsrhan CLASS WILL Carl Wetzel: I leave my power with the weaker sex to Ron Wildt and Bill Gray. Hotcha! Catherine Magez: I leave my ability to get gossip to Peggy Lane. Mary Elizabeth Simpson: I leave my music inspirations and 'whatsat' to Mary Jane Bell. George Giliillan: Down deep in my heart I feel that Piercy could use my speed in the 100 yard dash better than I. Ruth Griflith: I will my undying love to Helen Oesterlef' Joe Deem: You will find my name written on every desk in this school. Geraldine Ward: I am willing to leave my voice to Jimmie Lehmann, not that he can use it. - 'M Bonnie Applegate: I will my nonchalant way with boys to Peggy Rominef' Robert Ebert and George Dickson: Un unisonj We leave our artistic abilities to two little girls in the Junior II class. Helen Ruth Cain: I leave my 'petite' ways to Joe Beckwith. Dick Samuels: I'm tired of carrying violin cases. Jeanette Bartels: I leave my popularity with lower classmen to someone Who can use it. Catherine Davis: I will my ever 'undying' love to Buck Jones. At this point one may pause long enough to heed the snoring of the old man, who, needless to say, has passed to the world of dreams, due to the somniiic effects of our masterpiece. We request, therefore, that our patient reader partake of this pattern when listening to a lecture, sleeping on a pine bed, or in other situations in which he helplessly finds himself. ROBERT YEARDLEY WILMA AUBERLE D lWW 'EI e arhrschant CLASS JEST Friends that we love so well. lend your ears to this oration offered to you by the gods of Jest, so that you may profit by the wrong doings of others. By the time that the victims of this work of art are bemoaning their fate to themselves? your humble servants will be somewhere in the vicinity of the Equator with ears burning, not from the intense heat of that tropical zone, but from the threats and promises of those involved in this great oration. Did you know that the Withees had taken out life insurance on Joanne? I guess it is because of foggy weather. We have heard that a good place to meet a part of the state militia is out at Kathleen Hall's. However, be careful of what you say and do, because Roby is strong as well as handsome. Isn't he, Kathleen? We wonder why Dick Smith had to learn to dance behind the bicycle shed during intermission of the Class Dance? We always thought that he could dance. , A childhood romance is blossoming forth again in the case of Bill Schneider and Geraldine Ward. That dashing young Romeo, Timothy C. Griffin, has gone in all directions. First, north to Toledo: then, east to Cairo: then, south to Beckley. Go West, my boy, go West. William Joseph Bernard Moran, Jr., knows something of Cairo, too. We wonder if she is any relation to Postmaster General Jim Farley? Who is the gay young fellow who is seen at a Murdoch Avenue home quite frequently? He seems to like to go places where he can get cornbread. Yes, you have guessed it! It is Eddie McDonough. That's why he used to go to Ritchie County-just to get buttermilk and cornbread. It seems that Ritchie County is more important than Wood to the boys of this high school. Dolly Aimic has captured one of our greatest orators, Clyde Edwin Kelly. Did you know that Ken Cooper refused to take any girl to the Senior Dance that he had ever taken any place else before?? He has always denied the fact that he is a ladies' man, but it rather looks as though he is beginning to believe it himself. Carl Wetzel and Oran Ogdin have formed a new club for the school. They have named it Women Haters. Isn't it surprising that those two would do that? Has Toddy jilteclboth of them? Is there any special reason why Emerson Nelson should keep Lorene Bosoi coat in his locker? Is it because he can't bear to have her away from him long enough to let her go to her own locker? Glass Int page sixty-seven Qllass 1-llest mhz arhzsclpxn CLASS JEST Anyone who wishes to see Bob Ebert in a romantic mood can usually find him pounding the pavements on Sixteenth along about twilight 'most every Friday and Saturday. Transportation in a DeSoto sedan is furnished Franklin Reece on every occasion. If you don't believe us, ask the owner of aforesaid car. It appears that Grace McCoy has removed to Reno to take legal action against the much-talked-about Tombstone Givens. Raymond Breckenridge confided in me that a thing of beauty often tends to keep a fellow broke.-Well, maybe it is a good thing that B. J. lives in Fairmont. 'L We had come to the conclusion that it was usually the Senior who broke the heart of the underclassman, but what about Wilma Rose?-Harry must have had a powerful line. It appears that Wilma Auberle has a new boy friend. She got rid of the old one and captured the new one in less than one week. She's a fast worker, isn't she, Pete ? Just a word from Joe Dummy. I yam agettin' out on account of they ain't no more subjects fer me ta flunk.-That's all I gotta say! - A word from Phil. who says this: I have been in school CP. H. SJ for 27 years, and I hate to leave. Let me tell you young fellows that your high school days are the happiest. This choice morsel is one that will open the eyes of many. We all thought that Dot Tigner preferred the older fellows, but lo and behold she has surprised us by dating aisenior, and he's none other than our Honored Class President. Here are a few words as overheard by our Star reporter as he sauntered near Mildred Morrison and Junior Hoblitzell. Junior speaking: Do you think we could live on my fortune, dear? Of course you know that my mind is my fortune. Mildred: Well, after all, Junie dear, it isn't any sin to be poverty stricken. And so, like all other things of beauty, this work which represents four years of hard labor fwe might even say slaveryj must be closed. As I lay down my pen, my heart is heavy. A tear from my colleague's eye drops on the paper and smears the ink. With the loud splash of the tear coming in contact with the paper, I am brought from deep meditation, and on the spur of the moment will add the final Amen to this writing which is so sacred to us.

Their fine services are appreciated throughout the Junior and Senior sections of the school. . The oflice assistants aid the faculty and the student body in many ways. They take care of all material for checking absence records, operate the school switchboard, assist in circulating bul- letins, and help to distribute text-books. The Football Helpers Squad under the supervision of Mr. Steele and Mr. Linger, was of great service to the school at the football games last fall. They sold and collected tickets and maintained order among the younger and more excitable fans. The Boys' Patrol is a very active organization under the supervision of Mr. Church. Their duties are chiefly confined to traffic management in the vicinity of the school. The Patrol acts in cooperation with the Parkersburg Automobile Associa- tion. The Monitor System, organized at P. H. S. in 1929, isnow governed entirely by the Student Council. Capable and courte- ous students are. given an opportunity to use their study period in the service of the school. These students preserve order in the' corridors, check lockers. and direct casual visitors. -.c 1. fs-.. .ea ' -Li. ,Actihiiin I . . ..

He was raising CAIN about a little girl who was picking POSEYS around his door. If he hadn't been a good man, he might have CUSTER: as it was, she escaped. His neighbor the TAYLOR. business being slack. was REEDing his FRENCH REEDER. Next to him a SMITHy bent over his BURNER was busy mak- ing a STEELE FRAME for some BARNES which were being built near- by. I stopped to watch him: it was such interesting work I was ROTH to have to go. But as it was an exceeding- ly warm SUMMERS DAY I decided to eat an APPLE which I found lying on a nearby GATE. and to take a plunge into the nearby BROOK. Although there were several TROUT in it, I en- joyed my swim quite as much as if it had been in a fine POOLE. On the bank was an ASH man who wanted me to go KOON hunting with him. Not being accustomed to a hunter's LIFE. I gave him a pound of fig NEWTONS. bought at a nearby BOOTH, as a re- compense. After this I decided to make a visit to the GRIMM old KING. who had once GRANTed me a pardon when IMEEKIy-appealed to him and con- fessed having taken a ROSE from his garden. I was admitted by the POR- TER who was a very HARD MAN. The old KING and I talked for a long time and ate several perSIMMONS. KI didn't care for them. but I didn't DEEM it WISE to refusej.
