Delta High School - Del Hi Yearbook (Delta, OH)

Text from Pages 1 - 166 of the 1936 volume:

Then pale and worn, he kept his deck. And peered through darkness. Ah,that night Of all dark nights I And then a speck--A light I a light! a light! a light! It grew, a starlit flag unfurled! It grew to be Time's burst of dawn. He gained a world; he gave that world Its grandest lesson: On I Sail on I --Joaquin Miller L £ G£ N D As you browse leisurely through the pages of this book, may your spirit of patriotism and love of country experience a gentle awakening; may the gradual unfolding in picture form of the memorable events in the history of our great land,from the voyage of Columbus to the present day, cause to surge within your breast a deeper understanding and appreciation of your obligation to the stars and stripes and to the country for which they stand; may you say with renewed fervor; Pledge to the Flag. I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one Nation indivisible, with liberty and justice for all. f O R. W A fc D The annual staff of 1936 has endeavored to make this, the first mimeographed annual of Delta High School one which embodies the high ideals of the school. We hope this book will prove to be a cherished treasure to it3 readers; that in the years to come, as you pursue its pages, it will bring fond reminiscences of the past--memories of old friends and places familiar to you. If you derive as much pleasure from reading the Del-Hi as we have in preparing it, then we shall feel that our efforts have not been in vain. Annual Staff DiD C A'fj OM The two most important problems to be solved before the publication of a yearbook, such as this, is possible, are: The selling of a definite amount of advertising space and the subscription of a sufficient number of copies to finance the venture. The merchants of our community responded most generously in the buying of advertising space; the students of D.H.S. showed their loyalty and interest by an almost unanimous subscription for copies. To,express our appreciation to the Junior Class, which had the highest percentage of its members on the subscription list, we most gratefully dedicate the Del-Hi of 1936.

Play DEL-HI-STAFF In past years the students of Delta High School have at intermittent years, published the Del-Hi annual, In recent years such publications, by the printed method, have become almost financially prohibitive. For this reason the Seniors of this year have decided to publish the annual by the mimeograph process. Be cause the work is new to us, the taste is more difficult. You have given us your loyal support and, we, the staff, express the hope that your loyalty may be extended to embody a considerate attitude in your criticism of our efforts.

With books and globes, striving to build a world Within the understanding of a child. Oh, while I teach them may I have the power To clear away the mists that still arise. Born of old ignorance and prejudice, Around these children; May my soul and mind Become 30 broad, so all-encompassing, That, building on the old foundation-stones. Location, surface, crops, cities, and trade, I rear, fj.rm, steadfast, clear, in each child-mind, A world of other people like himself. Swayed by the self-sam© longings, high and low. Loving their homelands as we love our own. Oh, may I feel that I have failed unless I teach each child to seek in every race The common traits of brotherhood; to feel Within his breast the heartbeats of the world. --A TEACHER ■ Uoarb of Cbucation Jf acuity James 0.

Glee Club 1,2,3 Commercial Club 2,4 D£L-rll SENIOR CLASS HISTORY In the autumn of nineteen hundred and thirty two, we Seniors were sailing the ocean blue. About 8:30 on the morning of the fourteen of September we’ were thrilled by the cry of, land hoi land I hoi coming from the excited lips of June Eberly, who was standing watch in the crows nest of our sturdy and seaworthy craft. We all scurried to the leeward side of the ship to get our first view of dear old D.H.S. slowly visible on the far away shore. Yes, there is the belfry; now, we see the trees on the campus; the old bell on the monumnet. Oh, give me the glass, begged Willis Walker. Yes, there is Mr. Eeall, the Superintendent, standing at the door, ..ready to welcome the rapidly approaching craft bringing the eager cargo of new freshmen. All hands on deck, bellowed Alvin Holmes from the Captain's bridge. All hands on deck, purpose for landing, repeated first mate, Louie Brasiola. Step lively, me lads, barked second mate, Hilaire Markey, Get read: to cast the ropes. A dull thud shook the craft as we bumped gently against the dock. Lower the gang plank, shouted Captain Holmes. There was wild confusion evervvhere, everyone trying to walk the plank at the same time. Splash I Splash I Help I Help I Wouldn't you just know it Lucille Knapp and Vivian Hatfield fell off the gang plank . Gallantly Clyde Savage and Norman Reighard plunged into the water and quickly brought the dripping but still enthusiastic girls safely back on deck. By this time the confusion on the dock attracted the attention of the faculty and in a few minutes we;-were being greeted by Supt.Beall,Prin.Younkin,Miss Greenberg,Mr. Boxwell,MissNau,Mr.Tressler,Mr.Knapp,Miss Armstrong, Mr.Turnbull,Mr. Miller,Miss Fisher,and Miss Heestand. With the grave eyes of the Seniors upon them the frivilous freshmen made their triumphant entry into D.H.S. My, what a crowd and clatter, shouted Bob Sturtevant, I feel lost, cridd Clarence Greisinger. Almost immediately the Class banded together and chose Clark Gray as president, and June Eberly as secretary and treasurer, to handle thfcir class duties. Miss Nau, the sponsor, tried to keep the irrepressible youngsters under control. The Sophomore year, like the Freshman year, was somewhat quiet. The class had elected Violet Snider ft AKif VJ 1 1 ■? o Wo 1 1 ayi non v a4- n v� tr nvt I 4 v a n r a v� SENIOR CLASS HISTORY (cont.) In the Junior year, the class had really settled down. There were serious things to be done this year; the class play and the banquet. June Eberly, President, and Bud Sieren, Secretary, were placed in charge of the class politics. Under the able supervision of Miss Greenberg, the class gave the departing seniors a bon voyage. The play Money to Burn (even in the depression) turned out to be a success. ’Then the enrollment for the Senior year came around, it was discovered that the good ship Education had changed captains. Under the capable direction of Mr. Burkholder, ably assisted by Mr. Sutermeister, the Senior year was most enjoyable. Class officers for the year were: Mr. Cartwright, sponsor; Marion Johnston, President; Arlene Klopfenstein, Vice-President; and Paul Robinson, secretary. They proved very adept at settling such grave problems as class pictures, invitations, and name cards. Closing the year's festivities, the Seniors were given a hearty send ofi by the Juniors. Class color--Bluo and Gold Flowcr--Pansy Motto-- A live wiro nover gets stepped on. SENIOR POEM D£L-rJJ NT TOT? POT??' Hurrying and scurring down the hall, We see the Seniors, one and all, 'Tis time, 'tis time, for school to close. So now Senior charms we disclose. Charms that next year will be missed; Follow here our lengthy list; Ruth's typing speed tops us all. She'll probably enter college-next fall, Wayne Stout's shorthand skill. Surely puts hinr;through a treadmill. June's giggles, Marion's zeal Gives them both a certain appeal. Bob's capers, Marianne's good looks, Mary and Norman's knowledge gleaned from books, Alvin Holmes is still a good scout, Isabelle Is silent, while Harriett pouts. Paul's bluffs, Betty Greene's charm, Lucille Young's uke will do no harm, Hilaire's gum, and Geneva's curly hair They handle with the greatest of care. Betty Hallett's one ambition. Will some day bring her recognition. Winonia Rowland's sweet expression. Imprints upon our minds a happy impression. Oh, who is that girl over there. With the big brown eyes and dark hair. Why that's Lucille Knapp chatting with Clyde Savage, Believe it or not a hard person to manage. Arlene Klopfenstein's mighty pretty skin, Arthur's smile and Lloyd Sieren's grin. Many friends they will win. Rosabelle's shyness, Lois Schnur's bliss. Brings us nearly to the end of the list. The most popular Senior is Willis Walker, And you will find Marvin George no squawker. Studious is Vivian, sincere is Margaret Mann, And Clarence Greisinger is a great football fan. SENIOR CLASS PROPHECY In the early spring of 1946, we climbed into our rocket ship The Pansy and soared in search of our classmates of the 1936 Delta High graduating class . As we hovered over the part of northern Ohio commonly called the openings, through the magnifying window especially constructed for our observation tour, we could see Arthur Chamberlain diligently working at his profession--sheep shearing (Art failed in the barber business.) Clif Hen-ricks, the city dude, was there arguing that brains are better than brawn, he is still successful as a shoe shiner. Just then the farm house door opened and Art's loving wife, the former Mary Staehling, steped out to the windmill and rang the dinner bell. Veering northward, we passed over the illustrious town of Ai, where the Commissioner of Garbage, Willis Walker, was busily at work under the hot sun; while the be-spectacled Bud Sieren was inspired toward poetry by Willie's labor. As we neared Salisbury Cemetery, a long procession of cars went whizzing below us. It was led by a black hearse, piloted by undertaker, mile-a-minute Bob Stur-tevant. (Supt. Burkholder cracked under the strain of graduating ten classes like that of '36.) Paul Robinson conducted the burial services. Preacher Paul is happily married to the former Betty Green, who has her hands full managing their little ministers. We were anxious to see the much-ttcralded Dingling Circus then playing in Toledo. To our surprise, the tight-rope walker was none other than the agile Marie Vollmer. Marvin George was tossing dumbells about as though they v ere toy balloons. (A second Santell.) We had to pay ten cents extra to see the fattest woman in three counties, Lucille Knapp. Upon securing a local newspaper we turned to Clyde Savage's article, Advice to the Lovelorn. (Experience is a good teacher.) We vis-i -ited the Toledo Hospital to help Mr. Sutermeister withstand the soothing (???) care of his nurse, Harriett Johnston. ( Suty suffers a relapse every time he thinks of Betty and Vivian's horn tootin'). As many of our successful brethren were in New York, we headed our good old Pansy eastward. Just outside Philadelphia we saw a crowd gathered at the country estate of the bankrupt socialite, Rosabelle Krauss. Auctioneer Louie Brasiola was crying his lungs out trying to get (Cont' d) five dollars more for Rosabelle's blue-ribbon Pekinese, Pride of Delta. For a little amusement we tuned in the radio and the familiar voice of Prima Dona Lois Schnur flowed through the ship.. Our old friend. Professor Hilaire Markey, invited us to visit him at Columbia University, whoro he is head of the Mathematics Department. Circling over New York City, wo gazed down on Radio City. There, in the famous Rainbow Room, was Vivian Hatfield enticing the New Yorkers with her blues singing Betty Hallett was the floor show, making the room temper ature soar to a 100 in the shade (Wo wonder why,) Winonia Rowland and Lucille Young, who designed the none too-elaborate costumes worn by Beatty, had earned a repu tation for t eir pent-house parties. Calling all rocket ships, clear the atmosphere! The Pansy is on her way southwest. Just then our wireless operator handed us an important message. It read, Have finally mastered the art of keeping my snowshoes on, signed Wayne Snowshoo Stout (Arctic explorer. No. 15988) P. S. Been having a terrible time lately beating off the eskimo squaws. It must be my sex appeal. As we passed over the coal mining regions of West Virginia, we noticed an unconscious form lying on a slack pile. Muledrivor Norm Reighard absolutely refused to steo from behind tho flying hoofs of his mine mule, (anothor case for Harriott.) We arrived in Louisville, just in time to see the finish of the Kentucky Derby Jockey Clancy Griesinger rode Never Sfiumblc straight to the bacon-house on the other side of tho finish beam. At Chicago we wei-o shocked to find Margaret Mann employed as a hostess in one of the famous night clubs of tho City. Geneva Vance was leading a quiet life as a demure little school teacher in the same city. Over Iowa we passed the international transport Zepplin on which Ruth Stiriz was head Stewardess. Our next stop was Arlen Klopfenstein's Dude ranch. As we suspected there wo found Hollywood's gigilo, Marlon Johnston. Marion had worn a furrow two feet (Cont'd) deep through the desert between ike's ranch and Hollywood. Evidently the wealthy widow was to bo Marion's next prey. To us the moot intoresting thing in Los Angelos was to sco Isabelle Fredrick win i the U.S. Woman's Diving Championship. Remembering that it was Friday night, wo gunnod the old crate back to Plattston Hall. Thero we found Bill Holmos and Marianno Smith going to town on Turkey in the Straw. Through all these yoars the old shindig had hold its popularity--shc was still going full blast every Friday night. In a tem year history of thirty-three people, there must be ono tragedy. Our dear Del-Hi Editor, JTune Eberly, failed to withstand the brain racking job of publishing the annual. We found her cutting stencils in a local insane asylum.

When a band of Freshmen steered their bark Toward the Delta High School door. Sixty-two young, pursuing adventurers set forth on a long and hard voyage, seeking a new life, one that was higher and more intellectual. The journey was a most difficult one. The hardships were so great that even though their hearts and souls had been intent upon the great opportunity befor6 themj- several succumbed to the ravages of life. Landl Land! was the cry of all the weary but eager voyagers. The anchor was cast, orders were given to remain on board until there had been drawn up a Compact , a set of rules governing these pilgrims in their new home. The lily of the valley, and emblem of purity, their flower, with scarlet and gray as their favorite colors. Lastly, as the Captain ordered all to join hands in the great circle of fellowship, the following motto was repeated together: The road of toil leads to the city of success. The first yonr was the moot trying of all. T}je experiences of the new life overpowered some of the weaker inhabitants but made the remaining only more brave and relentless. Soon they had established themselves firmly in their new tasks and were working steadfastly toward the goal which they had set out to reach. Her Majesty, Carmen Greenberg and also her successor, Queen Alma Palmer, have treated their loyal subjects with great favor and were pleased with their courageous attempts and beginning prosperity. A few wandered to other places and five neighboring friends have joined these Pioneers. Her Majesty, Alma Palmer, ordered that the town crier proclaim to all her people the dramatic presentation of Girl Shy on April 24. Continued next page (Cont.) -- D£L-HJ == At the end of two and one half years Governor James Geiger called a meeting of Vice-Governor Thelma Quelet, Secretary Sarah Johnson, and his chief advisors to make plans for a grand celebration. The governor stated his great satisfaction of the improving conditions and prosperity of those forty-three energetic people who had been able to survive the hardships and trials of such a strenuous life. As means of expressing thankfulness and gratitude a holiday was proclaimed on May 16. There was to be a huge feast and a dance afterwards. Chief Johnston and his Senior tribe were given a special invitation by the governor. This act of thankfulness and friendliness proved to be of such great value and received so much praise by all that the governor proclaimed it as an annual banquet always honoring the Senior tribe. Indeed, these Pioneers have well deserved their place in history and with their courage and energy the whole world will benefit from the results of their activities. The road of toil leads to the city of success J' SOPHOMORE CLASS HISTORY Fight I Fight I was the cry of an organization of forty-eight young determined pilgrims. Fight, for our rights to education. The year of 1650 seemed to these people a combination of battles, hardships, and constant struggling to gain their goal. But they were to stubborn to give up, and bravely fought their enemies, to go onward to their goal. Their leader, Mr. A. Myers, was constantly on the job to keep their face to the wind and buck any battles they might encounter. Edward Staehling and Franklin Guthrie, Mr. A. Myers, assistant helper, loyally kept to their duty encouraging each one to continue on their journey with a great enthusiasm and willingness that they must have. Each pilgrim gladly did their part to economize, for future events that are on their way to meet them. This developed the need for a treasurer, who was, Bill Cox. A carefully, neatly written note book with the signature of Louise Segrist proved that statistics had been developed, and the minutes of each meeting had been carefully recorded. Upon their journey they met several other organizations and decided that if they would cooperate and faithfully help each other, all those concerned would reach their goal speedier and with much more safety. With this determination it was decided that meetings would be held at regular intervals. Two pilgrims of their organization, Helen Fashbaugh and Wallace Stout, would represent this group. They were to wear a rose showing their distinction from any other organization which might intrude. If any nearing trouble should arise they would readily get assistance of any other group, simply by showing their colors of scarlet and gray. On their journey, they kept in mind their motto, It is only the ignorant who despise education, which in itself helped them to continue when they were about to surrender.

Here they were to seek knowledge and ascertain among other things whether or not their grandparents were monkeys (evolutionarily speaking). After eight continuous years of travel, the ship stopped at the gates of the high school to get new crew members. Among the crew to enter the stronghold at D.H.S. were 13rpassengers from Pike Township, 12 from York Township, and 10 from Swancreek Township. The remaining crew were from the Delta Village. A week after landing they selected Miss Nau as their crew sponsor and Earl Whitmire, President who cried the motto The elevator to success is broken, take the stairs. While Fermin Dohm, the Vice-President, carrying the purple and gold class colors and Blair Miller, wearing the class flower, the sweet pea followed. I The Freshman have taken a big part in Delta school-life. Beside, athletic honors, they have placed many of their members on the honor roll. They were also guests at a Halloween Dance sponsored by the upper classmen. After a -unforgettable year, the green freshies are now ready to continue their cruise on the ship Education by returning to school as Sophomores and to carry forward the banner of achievement which they have held so high this year.

Early in the summer our school had been suspended from the Ohio High School Athletic Association for alleged infraction of cert ain association rules during the 1934-35 school year. The suspension ruling made it impossible for the Panthers to participate in inter-school athletic competition. Under these adverse conditions the first call for football practice was issued and thirty-five boys answered the call. Under the inspiring leadership of Coaches Cartwright and Leathorman and Captain Brasiola, the squad practiced and trained for the day when the cloud of suspension would be lifted and athletic competition with other schools could be resumed. Interest and enthusiasm was maintained at a high pitch by playing several college Freshmen Teams; Bluff-ton College, Adrian College and Bowling Green. Finally the State Athletic Board, after carefully reconsidering our situation gave us a probationary reinstatement effective November eighth. This gave us a sufficient time to play four high school games; Swanton, Maumee, Montpelier and Wauseon. The day of the Swanton game dawned clear and bright. Enthusiasm was at white heat . Bands played, crowds cheered, the whistle sounded and the game was on. From the first it was evident that the inexperience of the Panther squad was going to count heavily against them. After the smoke of battle had blown away the setting sun shown wavely on the cleat broken gridiron where the Panthers had been driven to a 45 to 0 defeat. The next encounter was against the strong Maumee eleven who handed the Panthers a 32-0 defeat. The Panthor offense, however, showed great improvement as evidenced by their repeated threats at their opponents goal. The Montpelier Locomotives slashed their way through the Panther dofense for a 24-7 victory. The first touchdown of the season was the direct result of a sustained line smashing drive. Fillod with the do or die spirit, the Panther squad went to Wauseon on Thanksgiving day, determined to hand the Indians their first defeat at the hands of the Panther squads since 1929. Early in the game it was evident that the Panthers were in perfect condition, plays clicked. D£l-'rll (Cont'd) resulting in consistent gains, through the lino and via the air. Lato in the fourth quarter tho Panthers started one of their lino smashing dives that ended in a touch down and victory.

This group included three letter men from last year's squad; Louie Brasioia, Willis Walker,Cap't Lloyd Sieren. Around this nucelus the Panther mentor proceeded to his task of building a team out of comparatively inexperienced material that would be forced to compete with many teams of the county who were exceptional strong this year. After four nights of practice the Panthers invaded the court of the Fulton Raiders. The game was fast and furious from start to finish ending in a 28-28 tie. The Raiders scored 5 points in the overtime period making the final score 28-33. The squad showed real class and everyone retunred home greatly encouraged. The splendid performance of the team created a spirit of enthusiasm that followed the team through the entire season. The Metamora game was a real surprise to everyone. The Panthers had every reason to anticipate an easy victory but fight a3 they might they were handed a 20-19 defeat. The first victory of the season was over Swanton. Trailing by five points in the last quarter, the Panthers forged ahead to a 28-26 even over the Bulldogs. The Panthers were defeated by Pettisville 30-17. The game was a little rough. Delta’s boys fouled out and were replaced by the substitues, who had just played a hard game. After Christmas vacation the Panthers were again defeated 33-19 by Lyons. Liberty Center came to Delta with a fast and alert team, defeating the Panthers 43-24. The Panthers were set back 14-25 by the Fulton Raiders. Todd scoring the majority of the points. The Blissfield Sugar Boys defeated the Panthers 21-29 by their outstanding passing attact. The Panthers suffered their s econd defeat at the hands of Pettisville 22-32.

H. S. it has been resumed. The first call for practice was in the city hall and about thirty candidates responded. It was iiwaedi-ately noticed that most of the boys lacked experience and that much drill would be necessary to whip a toam in condition for the first game. As time passed the boys seemed to improve, especially at the bat . The first two games of the season were quite well played and the superb pitching of Johnston kept Delta in the running. At this time however, Johnston became sick, '.Holmes decided to work and it was necessity to break in a new battery. Dick Frakor and Marvin George carried the burden for the rest of the season and made a creditable showing but errors were too costly and the rest of the games were lost.

Charlotte is called Charlie,hence the error. Why the jolt? Well, Larry is engaged to the imperious Vivian Smythe-Kersey and is further hen-ridden by a snobbish aunt. To have another female in the house delights him not. Neither does it delight Vivian nor the aunt. Charlie arrives from Arkansas accompanied by Uncle Aleck Twiggs, like herself a true product of the Ozarks. She starts by calling Larry, Papa, and by displaying artless, but warm, affection. Larry likes the attitude but it fails to smooth the friction between the women and Charlie. The latter assume active enmity and plan to oust the hill-billies. Farcial situations develop from the social blunders of the now arrivals, especially when Aunt Fanny Farnham, determined to make Uncle Aleck earn his board and keep, tries to turn him into a society butler. Conspiracies against the Ozarkians rocoil; but Larry’s position is made so uncomfortable that, to save him punishment, the pair departs only to return after some months oh, so different! Charlie is barely recognizable in her successor, glorious Charlottee, who flutters all masculine hearts. Uncle Aleck too, has undergone an amazing change. This is a play in which farce-comedy is tempered by heart interest and touches of pathos. Minor roles include Larry's cynical college pal; a haughty society matron; her sappy son; a comical Irish maid; and her Irish policeman fiance.

Into its pages go the life, joy, enthusiasm, and idealism of our school. It has proven to be a powerful factor in encouraging many disirable school activities and condemning any practices that work against the best interests of the school. In addition to promoting school spirit, the Gold and White i3 a friendly medium of exchange between the school and the community. The excellent edition edited by the Juniors proved that the' future of the Gold and White is being left in capable hands. DEL-HI The Editor of this annual desires to use this column to express her appreciation to her staff. Elected to their offices by the class, each member proved himself very capable in fulfilling his duty. indeed, the confidence of the class was not misplaced. Their enthusiasm and cooperation was a great incentive in the production of the year book. Contributes of special articles and the typists--Marie Vollmer, Alvin Holmes, Winonia Rowland and Ruth Stiriz deserve full credit for their fine work. The great interest and advice of Mr. Burkholder was great inspiration to us. The success of this annual has been largely through his efforts.

THE VALUE OF MUSIC EDUCATION in the PUBLIC SCHOOLS The place which music has held in our school programs has been far too small. By many teachers and education adminstrators, music is still regarded as a fad or trivial accomplishment not worthy to rank as substantial educational material.However, the old idea of the Three R's being the essentials in education for the masses, and of training only the talented in the fine arts, is giving way to a new order, because of the scientific and psychological methods employed in modern education. School officials are, more and more, regarding music as an important feature in the outfit of every human being who means to be cultivated, efficient and rationally happy. Because of recording machines and radios, Music is literally in the air everywhere ; but to understand and enjoy her Rhythms melodies and harmonies, the ear must be trained, the understanding quickened and the heart awakened. To be able to sing or play well, even a simple melody, gives a satisfaction to the soul that cannot be derived from hearing the greatest artist perform. Every soul deserves this happiness. Our deepest Christian ideas are steeped in music. The worlds best poems are made dearer in song. The litera ture of .all nations is intensified in opera. When every child is given a musical training, which is a part of its birthright for happiness and usefulness the whole world will realize the meaning of those words of Sidney Lanier: Music means har- mony, harmony means love, love means God. DEL-HI Senior Girls Glee Club The Girls Glee Club meets each Wednesday for rehearsals. The members al30 participate in the mixed Qliorus. - In March the club joined with the Boys Glee Club in the presentation of Tune In , the successful operetta which was so capably directed by Miss Williams. Selections from Tune In were used by the mixed chorous during the broadcast which the Delta High School music department gave over station W. S. P. D. in Toledo. The girls 3ang two numbers at the school fair and will join with the Boys Glee Club to sing at Baccalaureate . The Girls Glee Club was represented at the dis frict music contest at Ada by Jeanette Connor who sang a soprano solo. Jeanette was given the rating of SUPERIOR which will entitle her to enter the state music contest at Oberlin, The Glee Club accompanist, Louise Segris t, should be given much credit for the success of Tune In . Senior Boys Glee Club The Boys Glee Club was considerably smaller thi3 year than it has been in the past years but they made tip in quality what they lacked in quantity. They joined the Girls Glee Club in the successful presentation of the Operetta, Tune In , which was under the direction of Miss Williams. The Boys Glee Club was Represented at the dis- trict music contest at Ada by James Geiger, first tenor; Richard Merrin, second Tenor; Glen Fish, baritone; and Robert Turpening, bass. James was given the rating of SUPERIOR and will represent Delta at Oberlin at the State music contest.

Treas.---Arlene Klopfenstein Assistant Directors----------Herbert Poorman, Richard Merrin The Delta High School Band is an organization of which we are very proud. For the past two years the band has been under the direction of Mr. Suter-meister. The members of the band have been taught not only the technique of correct playing, but the enjoyment of listening to good music. The band has made several public appearances especially at the football games in the fall. Their colorful uniforms made an attractive picture as they marched across the football field. The band made its debut over the air when it played two numbers on the program which the Delta High School music department gave over station W. S. P. D. in Toledo. Herbert Poorman and Richard Merrin represented the band at the district music contest at Ada. Herbert played a trumpet solo and Richard played a trombone solo. Both boys received the rating of EXCELLENT. The main event of the year for the band members was the concert presented on May fifteenth.

It has been repeatedly shown that nothing will encourage the study and love of music so much as personal participation in it, says Joseph Carlton Podolyn, founder of five of the prin' cipal high school orchestras of Philadelphia. Our orchestra, under the excellent direction of Miss Williams, stimulates an interest in the work of the great professional orchestras and a corresponding knowledge of the music which has been composed for these organizations. There are few influences for the dissemination of musical knowledge and experience which will compare with that of the high school orchestra. This year our orchestra has appeared before the public many times. At Christmas time it presented a Christmas musical at Winameg where they also played for the eighth grade Commencement. The group played between acts of the high school operetta, Tune In. The members also participated in the Delta High School broadcast over W. S. P. D. in Toledo. As a part of the program at the School Fair the orchestra played two numbers. It ended its successful year by playing at the Commencement exercises. « Science Club Left to TOP ROW ROW III ROW II ROW I Left to TOP ROW ROW II ROW I DEL-MJ =--------- Commercial Club Right Earl Whitmire, Willis Walker, Max Linn, Gaylord Turpening, Alvin Holmes, Lloyd Sieren, Glen Fish, Robert Sieren, Paul Mann, Virgil Trigg.

The club performs its greatest service in that it offers an opportunity for boys of like interests to work together in a group, develop their ideas, and exercise their powers of imagination and invention. Members of the club constructed an amplifying 3ct with which a cast selected from the English twelve class presented a scene from the play Henry IV to the remainder of the class located in an other part of the building. For next year the club is planning a varied program of outside speakers and visits to a few manufacturing plants of radio and aircraft. jf. jf. a. ciub $. Tfe. 21. Club DEL-MJ F. H. A.

No other agency can do as much to facilitate smooth-working relationships between the faculty and any other agency. And no one can so effectively promote a comprehensive and varied program of social activities in the interests of the entire pupil population. The Student Council has proven itself a valuable asset to the high school this year. It was through their efforts of this organization that the magazine rack was established in the Assembly Room.
