PIQUONIAN THE CC75iwenty years of Kljrogress ELL I guess we're ready to shove off, said Dave Nichols as he prepared to climb into his pilot's cockpit of the huge Ford Tri-motor. The plane was in readiness for an around the United States hop and was now being warmed up at the Cincinnati airport. The planeis crew was composed of David Nichols, pilot, Marcellus Caldwell, co-pilot, Bill Binford, radio operator, Harold Gates, navigator, and Ernest White and Ralph Morrow, mechanics. The flight had a double purpose. One was to test the plane's speed as compared with the speed of 1933, this being 1953, and the other purpose was to furnish a heart story for the May Newspaper Syndicate, owned by Charlyne May. Finally everyone was aboard and Binford tested his radio hook-up. George Erhardt, who was to be the second man in the hook-up, reported O. K. from his station in the New York port terminal, and the ship took off, bound for that city. Nice takeoff, Dave, said Bill as the ship boomed into the air and crossed over the hanger, bound for the Great White Way. Marcellus, commonly known as Bump among his air associates, took over the controls while Dave went back to confer with his navigator and get weather reports. The weather reports were all O. K., so the plane was Ugunned' up to 250 without further delay. Having nothing to do at the present but receive weather reports, Bill, Harold, and Ernie began to converse about their flying experiences but soon the talk veered around to their old schoolmates of 1933. I guess that Johnny Ketchum is knocking 'em over as a Hollywood actor, isn't he? remarked Bill. The girls are all ga-ga over him. Yeah, but the world's men go for Fred Houser, champion of the Indianapolis races this year. Boy, he sure burns up the trackf' Say, put in Ernie, speaking of Ketchum as an actor reminds me of jane Hamilton, the second Jean Harlow, and jean Wilson, who is known as Garbois successor. Don't forget Mary Ziegenfelder and Suzanne Henry who aren't doing so poorly in Virginia Robert's new musical review. I hear they are quite a success. Say, whatever happened to Paul Negley? asked Binford. The last I heard of him, he was Ohio State's Hi-Y advisor and getting all the applause. Dave called back to let the breeze shooters know that they were flying over Pennsylvania. Ernie pointed down and said, Somewhere down there is Walter Grosvenor. He's district mine manager, I hear. Yeah, and somewhere down there, we could find Fenton Hildebrand and Bill Roecker who are playing in Dick Hunter's internationally famous dance orchestra with Marguerite Cron as their featured vocalist. It's a wonderful orchestra. I've heard them and they are good, but have you ever danced to America's waltz king, Bob Thoma? He is billed as Wayne King's successor, said Bill. Edgar Burr is stepping out among them with his radio crooning, isn't he? He certainly is, said Binford. Erhardt reports that the weather ahead is fair, he continued. That doesn't make much difference, said Dave, who had come into the cabin proper from- his compartment, as we can see New Yorkls skyline now. This crate is certainly fast. Two hundred and fifty an hour with speed left. Three waves to New York. How's that? Fine. We were just discussing our '33 pals, said Harold. That reminds me, said Dave, I'll have to look up my old pal, Bill Ratcliff, when we get to New York. I guess he and Dale Carey, his partner, have the largest law practice in the cityf' Here we are, remarked Ernie, who had been gazing out of the window on the world's largest city. Soon the big plane floated down to the airport terminal. As the airmen alight- ed, they were greeted by a reception committee headed by Mr. Elwood Weldy, New P1QU'oN1AN York's mayor, and a group of photographers, who began to snap pictures. They were under the supervision of Wilfred Beckert, owner of the famous Beckett Pathe News corporation. The flyers decided to see the town while they were there, and leaving Ernie White and Ralph Morrow in charge of the Ford's overhaul, they ventured forth on the great White Way. Mr. Weldy remarked that several of the 1933 class were making good in his city, among them being lvan Bartrug, who is pastor of the First Methodist church and has quite a large congregation, Donald Wells, noted organist, Ed Huggard and Madge Harris, who are popular in Harlem with their clever act, Arnold Bolton, who is the shortfstop for the New York Yankees, and his brother, Robert, who is manager of the same team, and Gerald Kiser, first baseman, Paul Cooper, who has his headquarters in this city and is the leader of the American Boy Scouts, and David Miller, the chief architect for the New York Engineering company. I guess the people of Piqua High are doing their old school proud, aren't they?,' remarked Binford. The flyers registered at the Waldorf-Astoria, managed by Harvey Craft, and then spent the next two days seeing New York. They went to Madison Square Garden and had the distinct pleasure of seeing Marion Kid Clemens win the middleweight championship of the world. On arriving at the airport to resume their flight, the flyers were delighted to see Nancy Lane, famous aviatrix, land. After greetings were exchanged, the flight was resumed. A brief hop into the New England states was next scheduled. Within a short time the old boys arrived in Boston. There they looked up the famous poets, john Attenweiler and Robert Poe. Clarence Reck, the humorist, was in Paris at the time on his vacation. Harold happened to see Pauline Gray and Ruth Luckey, who are stenographers for the famous Heinz's company, now managed by Thurman McClay. John Picker- ing, who manufactures the famous Pickled Pickles, was also sought out. Again the Ford tri-rnotored plane took to the air, this time on a straight hop to Miami, Florida. As they flew along, the conversation was resumed about the class of 1933. Harold happened to have in his diary a list of those of that class, so it was decided to check through it and find out, from their general knowledge, what each person was now doing. Following are the results: Iohn Brumbaugh is an old hand at cow-punching and owns a cattle ranch in Wyoming. jack Battson is general manager of the Atlantic and Pacific company. The famous basketball team of Ohio State is coached by none other than Russ Beaver. William Burr turned out to be an inventor and came forth with a perfect mustache schooner for 3.2. Several school teachers of distinction are Beatrice Avy, Florence Guenthner, Gertrude Davis, and Ethel Long. Melvin Guisinger is an English instructor at Harvard university. Harold Crump is in Egypt looking for rare stamps. Bob DeWeese and Bill Heater are in Europe competing for the United States in the international tennis matches. Eugene Grant is a civics teacher in dear old P. H. S. Bob Purdy is football coach at Notre Dame and has the nickname of Rockne the Second . Vic Shimp is judge of the Domestic Relations court in Reno. Francis Etherington and Lucille Finfrock are managing beauty parlors. Theresa Bauman and Esther Browning are modistes for Letizia Caslani, who owns a gown shop in Hollywood. Gretchen Schmidlapp is the charming hostess at the Hotel Biltmore in Dayton, Ohio. james Teegarden is a successful physician in San Francisco. Among those happily married to their high school Sweethearts are Mary Boylan, Katherine Buck, Jane Rengel, who also writes successful plays, and Evelyn White. Everything isn't so rosy, however, as Marjorie Carr and Mildred Young are going to Reno to get their third divorces, by the advice of Florence Kastner, who runs a love column for the May Newspaper. THE.. PIQUONIAN THE Many of the girls have taken up nursing, among them being Ruth Meyers, Rosella Weiss, Helen Neal, Jessie Hoke, Laurine Julien, and Martha Newsome. The Ford plane was now passing over Virginia and it was recalled that Ogden French is chef in the Vernon hotel near Mt. Vernon. The flyers decided to finish the list and these facts were brought to light: Ruth Fisher atthe piano and Jane Albright as vocalist and reader are all the rage on the radio. . Several athletes are still making good, those being Leo Wilcox, the second Bobby Jones, Herb,Houser, whose record for the mile is still unbroken among the Olympic competitors, and Winifred Staley, who has earned the title of Babe Didrikson the Second. Russ Fogt still retains his pingfpong championship of America, Virgil Klopfer's record for the Olympic cross-country is, as yet, unbroken, and Freddy Meyers is .still rated as the greatest tackle the University of Chicago ever had. Betty Yarman is a well known columnist for the May Syndicate. On the stage, Mildred Young has become known as one of the greatest -actresses. Evelyn Pollard is called the greatest musical singer in years, Vonette Warvel is New York's latest find as a tap dancer, while Robert Lawhead and Dale Karns are heads of the great chain of theaters from coast to coast. Robert Morrow is sales head for the Stephenson Hardware Co., owned by no other than Tom Stephenson. Herman Wiford was recently appointed director of the Boston Art institute. Ed Roberts, Norman McClay, and Paul Ringelspaugh are Secret Service operatives. Miami ahead. In a few minutes the plane landed. Who should come strolling up to the ship but those famous society women, Jean Statler and Helen Steinhilber together with Lucille Moore, renowned head of the Modern Business School in Chicago. Greetings were exchanged, and upon learning that Fred Miller, the great trombone soloist, was to playin New Orleans the next evening, the boys immediately returned to the Miami hotel. Another surprise! Esther Snyder and Marie Hays, famous debaters and congresswomen, were in the lobby. From Marie the boys learned that Dixie Gilchrist is the home economics teacher at P. H. S. The next morning on the way to New Orleans, the boys resumed their talk. just happened to thinkf' said Bill: Lorene Foster owns a great ranch in the West, and---O yes---William Patterson is the greatest wheat raiser in the Dakotasf' Hagel Davis is chief mechanic for the American Transportation Company, the well-known busline, said Harold. l think Onda Robinson and Alice Schmidlapp are stenographers for Robert Long, chief of the Mid-Western Chemical corporation, said Ernie. lsn't Martha Hahn the new commerical instructor back at Central? asked Harold. Yes, she has achieved quite a record in her previous workf' replied Bill. Here we are at New Orleans, we better get cleaned up if we want to go to the concert tonight, said Dave. The boys left the plane in the care of the airport mechanics and sped to town in taxis. There's that noted beauty shop managed by Alice Dickson and Elaine Hake--'remember Dave?i' Say, there's the famous night club owned by Paul Geeting. What say we drop in after the concert tonight? asked Bill. All agreed. lt just happened as the boys were entering their hotel that they spied Gladys Thomas, who had made a name for herself by her superb salesmanship. ln the lounge they found Lester Hunter and Don Kiefer, their only occupation being spending their wives' money. Laura Koester, the boys learned from them, was spending her vacation traveling in Europe with her husband. After the concert, the boys proceeded to the night club mentioned above, there they found Elizabeth Guisinger in the role of hostess, and were the boys entertained! In fact they didn't want to leave until the headwaiter told them that the place had to close. just like them! Their flight continued without mishap, but it was decided to cut it short be- cause Binford wanted to get home to his wife. They completed their journey over the United States in the next two days and, making their final landing, hurried home. -Charlyne May -Wm. Ratcliff -David Miller.

PIQUONIAN Jllumni UNQJtes UST as we, the youngest alumni of Piqua High, hope to progress in the future, the ones before us had the same purpose in mind. Some of the members of the classes of 1883, 1893, 1903 and 1913 have consent- ed to write articles on their personal views of progress either in their particular profession or in general. Mrs. Kirk Kerns QAdgie Bakerj, of the class of 1883, contributes the following article: PROGRESS This is a wonderful world in which to be living, beautiful and most interesting. ln the past forty years progress has been great. Better schools are found today in which one receives a broader education. Those subjects are taught which train not only for a vocation but also for the proper spending of leisure time. This is being done in the regular school curriculum as well as in the outside activities, which include household arts, manual training, various clubs and musical organizations. In the rural districts, centralized schools are replacing the one-room buildings. This affords a com- munity center which furnishes an opportunity for sociability and leadership. We have had the privilege of living in an age of great inventions and prosperity. The world at present seems to be at a standstill, but we must not give up, for the future holds great possibilities. Dr. Clark E. Hetherington, of class of 1893, goes back to the gay nineties to- start his conception of progress. ' PROGRESS ? Forty years ago there was a depression. We are back where we were in '93. i'The youth of '93 was not much disturbed by the financial conditions. We never had much money anyway. Nickels were larger than they are today. Nickels and dimes bought most of the small things that we wanted. And yet those were the gay nineties! We had just as much fun then, somewhat unsophisticated fun though it was. Our mischief was abundant but more or less harmless. Our tobacco was indulged in fervently but furtively. Alcohol was not unknown but indulgence frowned upon. Billiards and cards were more or less evil, if not forbidden games. A scholar from Oxford, England, was refused the privilege of addressing our high school after he was seen playing billiards at the hotel. Our athletics were simple and in modern eyes most unsophisticated---a little baseball, leap frog , one and over , black-man . Everybody joined in. Vfe had no coaches, no uniforms, no band, no interurban or even class rivalries, but we gloried in our individual rather than our col- lective prowess. Our studies were few and simple. They did not prepare us for jobs, but we got one somehow. We studied more or less earnestly and left the result to Providence. i'The family exchequer did not provide many books, so we spent weeks reading the voluminous book of the day. The lurid fiction of today we did not have, but our sleep was not disturbed by the horrendous figures of the murder mystery. We had our jokes, but puns that now bring applause and five grand a week over the radio were not tolerated. Forty years of progress? Well, draw your own conclusions. Mr. Leonard Hill of 1903 class writes: THIRTY YEARS OF PROGRESS IN AGRICULTURE Ult has always been necessary for man to spend a large portion of his efforts in obtaining food. The time thus used has been lessened with each new improvement in agricultural practice. Probably a greater change has come about in this respect in the past thirty years than in any other equal period of time, at least in American agriculture. Of primary importance to economical food production is a fertile soil. Among the improved practices in this field, probably the use of commercial fertilizers has been the most outstanding. Large amounts of rock deposits of suitable analysis are now ground up and spread on the land, to the betterment of succeeding crops both as to quantity and quality. Within the last thirty years, two THE . . PIQUONIAN THE processes have been discovered to convert the unlimited supply of nitrogen of the air into suitable plant food to be applied to the soil and the resulting product is already being used in large quantities. ln the field of new and improved varieties of all classes of agricultural plants much has been accomplished. There is scarcely a kind of fruit, vegetable, or grain but what has been improved by either careful selection, scientifically controlled breeding, or introduction of new varieties. Thirty years ago alfalfa was but little used over the most of the U. S. Sweet clover was classed as a roadside weed. Now they are classed as of first importance as pasture and forage crops. In regard to corn within the past fifteen years a new method has been developed of producing corn, especially for seed. It is called hybrid corn and involves a rather long, intricate system of controlled breeding practices. lt is being tried out by a few farmers in Miami county for the first time this year and promises to show an increased yield. There is now available for the winter diet a selection of fresh fruits and vegetables of a variety and equality hardly dreamed of thirty years ago, thanks to the progress of the American farmer and better transportation facilities. The change in the chicken raising business has been quite revolutionary. Formerly an old hen was set on fifteen eggs, and afterwards hovered over the little chicks to keep them warm and dry, Often the most of their food was scratched out of somewhere by the old hen. Now most chicks are hatched by incubators holding a few thousand eggs. The young chicks are raised in a brooder holding from three to five hundred. They are kept warm by an automatically controlled stove and fed a ration complete as to all requirements even as to minerals and vitamins. This last class of substances, now considered so important in food for man or animal, had not been discovered or even suspected to exist thirty years ago. 'KGreat changes and improvements have been made in the farmers' machinery. The average farmer has increased the size of his machines, often working double the number of horses as in former times. The gasoline engine whether in the little pump engine, auto, or farm tractor has been a very efficient time saver. After all, possibly the greatest progress of the average farmer has been his attitude toward progress itself. The past thirty years and a little beyond have seen the formation and develop- ment of our agricultural experiment stations and colleges. Anyone actually engaged in the farming business knows that there are many problems both old and new yet to solve. With more of our young people getting higher education than formerly and new information being developed and disseminated continually, there is no doubt but progress in agriculture will continue as fast or even faster than in the pastf, Miss Esther Gillespie, representing the class of 1913, gives the progress she has encountered in the nursing profession during the last twenty years. NURSING-1913 to 1933 Although the nursing profession began in the prehistoric age when the mate of the cave man came running when he screamed in pain, the real history of the profession began with the work of Florence Nightingale during the Crimean war. The past twenty years with the World war and its demonstration of the value of Preventive Medicine gave another decisive impetus to nursing, which has changed and enlarged the scope of the profession far beyond the most fanciful dreams of Florence Nightingale. Quarantine procedures, toxin-antitoxin, typhoid vaccine, insulin, vitamines and calories are a part of the daily life of the seniors of 1933, but aseptic nursing in contagious diseases was introduced into America in 1910, the first diphtheria antitoxin was given in 1892, but it was not until the Schick Test in 1911 that the use of toxinantitoxin became widespread, insulin, the universal treatment for diabetes, is a comparatively recent discovery. In 1920-21 those of us who were listening to Dr. Mc Collum's lectures in his experiments on mice with the protective foods which contained Fat and Water Soluble A and B now called vitamines had some such comprehension, then, of his discoveries as you have of Einstein's theory. Of course, all these changing trends are reflected in the nursing profession, hospital administra- tion and private case nursing in the hospital and the home have continued but with many changes in treatment, technique, and types of cases. Along beside this oldest type of nursing has grown another type. Lillian D. Wald opened the first Visiting Nurses' Service, and Public Health Services have brought the knowledge of medical scientists into the lives of people in the cities, towns, hamlets, and country alike. - Following the lead of insurance companies, industries have conserved money and human energy by adding nursing services for their employees. Even our young aviation industry has included nursing services for its patrons. Mental nursing and hygiene even though not entirely new have been given a new conception by our modern trends of education. These years of 1913-1933 have seen the nursing profession spread from the care of the sick and ill to a care which begins at birth and continues throughout the life of the individual.

The iBcmcl HE past year has proved to be another successful year for the Piqua Central High band, Aside from the football games and May-day parade, there were not so many calls for the band's service this year, but it readily responded when asked to play. As usual, a small selected band played for the home basketball games. Besides the football trips, the band played out of town twice. The first time was in Hagerstown, Indiana, for a local celebration and the second was in Greenville, at the band festival. At the beginning of the second semester, the membership was increased to the largest membership it has ever had, which made it possible to split into three sec- tions instead of two for the May-day parade. Cf course, the annual concert on February Zi was the crowning event of the year for the band. Following the selections by the Junior band and Central High Girls, Glee club, the Central High band played the following numbers: Rosita c,,,A.c,.,..,....,,.ccc,cct,.......,....itcc,ticc...t....,,.i....,,,,c,,,tt,,tt,,c,,,,c,,,,,....,...

PIQUONIAN Elie Glioms HE chorus of Piqua High school presented to the students a variety of good musical numbers this year. This variety was such that all of the school music lovers could enjoy the type of music that they appreciate most. The chorus met during the activities period on every Friday morning. The attendance was excellent enabling a thorough development of all parts: soprano, alto, tenor, and bass. The type of music used this year was different, in as much as no special choruses or numbers were used. 1 st. Row- Znd. Row 3rd, Row 4th, Row 5th, Rowe Gzh. Row 7th, Row Sth. Row 9111.

It has contributed its services to the Thanksgiving and Christmas entertain- ments, debates, the senior operetta, the senior class play, a parent-teacher's meet- ing, and the commencement exercises. Any high school student who is able to play a musical instrument may take part if he has previously shown his ability in some way. Most of the orchestra's members have received experience either in the junior band or the junior orchestra. The orchestra rehearsed on Tuesdays and Thursdays during the fifth period. This organization offers a very good opportunity to students with musical talent because the practice which they receive is very beneficial. The orchestra loses quite a few members this year who are seniors. These vacancies will be filled by members of the junior band or orchestra. The orchestra includes almost every instrument that is represented in sym- phony orchestras. For this reason it is not impossible for the members to play compositions arranged for symphonies. We sincerely hope that the future orchestra of this school will be as successful as the past has been, and that the same loyal spirit will exist among the members. The success of this orchestra has been due not only to the members, but also to Mr. Gates. -Beatrice Avy, THE . . PIQUONIAN THE . . . PIQUONIAN Girls' Glee Climb HE Girl's Glee club has again proved to be one of the most interesting and beneficial clubs for girls, as is evidenced by the enrollment. The club has been enlarged to sixty voices, which is practically double the personnel of former years. This is explained by the fact that the chorus group now includes over three hundred students, and through this organization much musical talent is discovered. As a result the Glee club has afforded more girls the opportunity to sing in this more highly specialized form of musical development. At the beginning of the year these officers were chosen: President ,..........,s,,s............,,.,.,s,s,,...,s,,..........,. Jane Albright Secretary ............ .............,..,sr, . ., .r...,,., Lucille Erb Throughout the year the club has helped out in various programs by present- ing musical selections. At the annual band concert the girls sang Offenbach's melodious Barcarolle and the lovely Cradle Song by Brahms. These numbers were so successfully given that they were repeated at the joint P. T. A. meeting. The group sang a number of patriotic songs on open night in keeping with the holiday of that week, Armistice day. At the Baccalaureate sermon, the Glee club sang several sacred numbers, appropriate for the occasion. The splendid work accomplished by the girls under the capable direction of Mr. Gates shows the goal which can be attained by those who are interested in good music. -Esther Snyder, Ist.

Although the club did not commence activities until rather late in the school year, some very effective work has been accomplished with success. Much was learned this year in voice culture, including diction, pitch, breathing, and numerous other things. The Glee club made one public appearance, this was at the city-wide Parent- Teachers meeting in April, where it presented two fine numbers entitled Bombay and I Am Waiting by the Wishing Well. That which the boys learned this year will always be helpful and a pleasure to them after leaving school. --Paul Cooper. THE... PIQUONIAN THE . . .

PIQUONIAN Cgootlvall IQUA I-Iigh's football season was regarded as a success this year since the Indians won eight of their ten games, the Miami Valley League championship, and the Piqua Daily Call-Troy Daily News trophy, and sustained very few serious injuries. The first game of the season proved disastrous for the Indians when they were outplayed by Columbus West at Roosevelt field and beaten to the tune of 7-O. Although this game tended to destroy the morale of the local eleven, they came back strong in the remaining games of the season. By defeating Xenia, Piqua High warriors established both their Hrst win of the season and of the Miami Valley league. The Buccaneers were downed by a score of 19-7. Dayton Fairview was trampled under the Indians' charges, and again Piqua traveled home the victor with the huge score of 38-7. This was Fairview's last time to play in the league. Although the Sidney Yellow-Jackets indicated that they were going to beat Piqua by a large score, they were themselves defeated 18-6. It was in this game that Captain Bob Purdy ran through the center of the opposng eleven for 102 yards and a touchdown. Piqua High Indians grew a little lax and had their winning streak stopped by a O-O tie with the Big Green. This was the first game that was played in a sea of muddy water, and both teams were thoroughly drenched at the close of the contest. Another tie resulted in the sixth game when Piqua and Lima South each chalked up one touch- down. This was a very close and exciting game as neither of the two aggregations managed to score until the fourth period of play and both missed the try for goal by a close margin. In a game that featured both ragged and brilliant play on the part of each squad, the Redskins trounced Miamisburg 26-12. Cutplaying the co-champions of Columbus on both the offense and defense the local squad beat Columbus Bexley by a score of 13-O. Both teams suffered from the bitter cold and a field of mud, water, and ice. This was the last game to be played with Bexley as school connections were severed following the game. In the big Turkey-day classic Piqua trounced the Trojans with a 9-6 score. This makes the second consecutive year that Piqua has beaten Troy via the educated toe route as Captain Bob Purdy booted a 29-yard field goal from a difficult angle in this game to win. Piqua I-Iigh's last game was played with the All-Stars, who beat the Redskins largely because of their superior age, weight, and experience. Only after a hard fight did the Alumni, manage to chalk up a 13-O score. All proceeds of this game were turned over to the city charities. Mluan Bartrug. Ist.

THE PIQITDISIIAN fBasketball IQUA Central's basketball team had a successful season in spite of the tough schedule of fourteen games and only four scalps to its credit. Coach Cv. P. Wertz with only two lettermen, William Ratcliff and Cloyd Carter, developed a fighting, never quit team, known throughout the valley. The lndians opened the season after approximately two weeks of practice by defeating Covington, 36-32. This game was played on the local hardwood. The last two games of 1932 were defeats for the lndians at the hands of Dayton Steele and the Alumni. The first game of the New Year was also a defeat, coming from Fairview, 22-29. The next week the lndians came back in great style by winning from Troy, 21-19. Later in the season Troy defeated the lndians 22-18 in a hard fought game. In the last game of the scheduled season, the lndians also tasted defeat, the Springfield ball-tossers coming out with the big end of the score 25-48. The Tribe went to the District Tournament with high spirits but was eliminated in the first round by Xenia. All Miami Valley games. with but one exception, were played on the op- ponents' hardwood, but the Tribe failed to get in the valley win column. The Indian reserves played eleven games, winning six, and losing five. There are several members of the reserves who will be excellent players this coming season. The lndians were backed by a much greater number of fans than usual this season. Those receiving letters on the 1932-1933 basketball team were Captain William Ratcliff, Donald Woods, Dale Carey, Cloyd Carter, Ashley Shively, Robert Webster, and Leroy Folck, and the Manager, Robert Bolton. -Don Kiefer.

This was shown by the following tests: pullfups, board jump, foot- ball throw, high jump, and 50 yd. dash, each class being rated according to age and physical strength. In this competition the freshmen proved to be superior Cprobably because of their large numbersj by scoring 53 points, the sophomores being third with 29 points, and the proud seniors being forced to take last place with a mere 25 points! -George B.

Deckball, which has been gaining much in popularity, took the place of base- ball this year. After several rounds of tournament play the junior team placed first. The champions included Dora Winans, Gladys Dorman, Mary jane Woodcox, Ethel Schmidlapp, Florence Fogt, Lucille Erb, Betty Winans, Lorena White, Catherine Littleton, Betty Valentine, Antoinette Thoma, Gladys Buchanan, Winnie Fisher, Louise Elbrecht. ' Contrary to the customary track team the Central girls free-lancedl' on May- day. In this way many girls who were unable to gain a place on the smaller track team, formerly selected by elimination, were eligible. This system also made the competition a great deal keener.

This year, as in the past, the Congress has aided materially in benefiting schoo activities. Vocational speakers were procured for assembly programs and the annual football dance and banquet was sponsored. Hall duty during every period of the day maintained orderly and quiet halls. The Congress is made up of six representatives from the senior class, six juniors, six sophomores, and four freshmen. They are elected by their respective classes in the fall and remain in office until the following june. Regular meetings are held once a week and business of the school is transacted there.

To date there are 112 members of this chapter. Last May, 1932, the annual banquet of all the members of the Piqua organiza- tion was held in the dining room of the First Presbyterian church. Marguerite Cron, Richard Hunter, Ethel Long, Robert Long, Evelyn Pollard, and Jane Rengel were the juniors inducted into the society at this meeting. After the induction an election of officers was held. The following were elected: President ...,.,.ttt,t, ,,,,t,t Richard Hunter Vice President ,t..,,. ttt.,.t. J ane Rengel Secretary ,..,.,t...... ..,.,,, ,.t.... R o bert Long ln October, 1932, the next induction ceremony was held at the high school. Those who were taken in at that time were Beatrice Avy, Ruth Fisher, and David Miller. Esther Snyder became a member in February. At the next meeting, the annual banquet in May, 1933, the following juniors were inducted: Gladys Buchanan, Martha Jane Emerick, Florence Fogt, Marjorie Louis, and Darrell Schulte. Four major points are included in the requirements for membership in this society: first, the candidate must have an average of ninety in all his work, second, he must have contributed some sort of service to his school, third, he must be a leader in school activities, and fourth, he must be of good moral character. It is acknowledged a great honor to be received into the National Honor Society as only fifteen per cent of a graduating class may attain membership. Although the club has been established for only a few years, there are over seventeen thousand members in the national organization, and scarcely a week passes when there are not less than four or five applications for membership. It is the hope of all the members that soon the society will be so expanded that there will be one hundred thousand members. -Ruth Fisher. Ist.

Since this time the students have increasingly shown themselves to be interested in journalistic work, and have merited all praise that has been given them. The purpose of the society is to give recognition and reward to all students who have done exceptionally good work in one or more of the fields of journalism. To be accepted as a member of the Quill and Scroll, it is necessary for a student to pass four tests: first, he must have done distinctive work in some phase of journalism, second, he must be in the upper third of his class, third, he must be recommended by the supervisor of journalism in the high school, and fourth, he must pass the approval of the national ofiicer. In order to carry out this last test a complete record of the candidate's high school journalistic work is sent to the head- quarters in Chicago, for inspection. Only one member from the organization of last year, jane Rengel, was at P. H. S. to carry on Quill and Scroll work this year. In the forepart of the year the five following students were taken into the society: Jean Statler, jane Albright, Marguerite Cron, Lucille Moore, and Charlyne May. A second initiation was held in the latter part of March, and at this time Nancy Lane, Marjorie Louis, Harold Crump, and Ruth Fisher became members of the society. Upon being initiated into Quill and Scroll, the students recite the oath of the organization, and each receives the badge of the society. A monthly magazine edited by Henry Luce is sent to all members. This magazine contains interesting suggestions, ideas, and facts concerning journalism, and holds contests for all who may be interested. It also prints exceptionally good stories, editorials, interviews, etc., which are contributed by Quill and Scroll members from all parts of the world. This journalistic society is constantly growing, and has chapters in America, England, China, Alaska, Hawaii, British Honduras, and all countries that strive to improve their journalism. -Cltarlyne May. .oo PIQUONIAN THE..

This is a national honor society which offers re- cognition to high school students of distinctive ability in forensic activities. The question debated this year was Resolved: that at least 50 per cent of all state and local revenue should be derived from sources other than tangible proper- ty. Debates were held with Lima South and Troy during the year, and Piqua High was fortunate in winning all the decision debates in which it participated. On March 13 the Troy debate team and coach were informally entertained by the Debate club, this proving to be one of the most delightful social events sponsored by the club. , A number of the debate students enjoyed a visit to Ohio State university on April 7, having the unusual privilege of attending the championship debate between Marysville High school and Columbus East High. The same question as the high schools used during the year was debated, and the Marysville team was awarded the championship. This visit to Columbus was thoroughly appreciated by the students. Mr. Gray was quite pleased with the large number of students that participated in forensic activities this year. An exceptionally good debate team is expected for next year because of the experience many of the underclassmen have had during the past season. -Esther Snyder. Ist.

'Dramatic Climb HE Dramatic club, under the direction of Miss Huddlestun, has aroused more than ordinary interest this year. At the first meeting these officers were selected: president, Bill Ratcliffg vice president, john Ketchum, secretary, jane Rengelg treasurer, Marjorie Louis, and librarian, Lucille Moore. each student had an opportunity to display his dramatic in which group he should be placed. These groups were of those students who were interested in being in plays, and the B group, composed of the members who wished to become an intelligent audience. Several weeks later, ability, thus determining the A group, consisting The Thanksgiving play, Another John Alden, was a modern version of the old favorite romance, The Courtship of Miles Standish . The actors of this play were Winifred Fisher, Bill Ratcliff, john Sims, Henrietta Fritsch, and Katherine Hunt. A very unusual Christmas play was presented, A Christmas Fantasy. The play was quite unique in that it accommodated so many characters: John Ketchum, jane Albright, Marion Freshour, joe Schuchat, Edgar Burr, Bud Lindsay, and Bob Morrow, besides a large group of children who composed a mob scene. This play was a story of two hardfhearted people who were really awakened to the real Yuletide spirit by a beautiful Christmas tree, which was brought to their home instead of dozens of harsh keep-off-the-grass signs. The last meeting of the Dramatic club was exceptionally interesting, for the members of the Dramatic Art class exhibited their talents in pantomimes. There were single, double, and group pantomimes preceded by a brief history of this type of entertainment. Since the meaning of the pantomime is portrayed only by the action, it necessitates clear and concise movements. -Evelyn Pollard. P1QU'orl11AN THE... PIQUONIAN Senior eil. Gill. HE Girls' Athletic association was reorganized this year under the supervision of Miss Fogle. Because of the large number of girls interested in the G. A. A., the organization was split into two groups, the junior G. A. A., for freshmen and sophomore girls, and the Senior G. A. A., for the junior and senior girls. The meetings were held twice a month. One meeting was dedicated strictly to businessg the other was used as a social meeting where every one could get better acquainted. At these social meetings the main forms of entertainment were musical num- bers, specialty dances, and several interesting talks. These talks were descriptions and explanations of various athletic games and helped the club members to under- stand them better.

As the letters are diflicult to get, it is quite an honor to have one. The girl who is chosen to be the Best All-Around Girl must be a member of this organization. Some of the sports which are open to the Babe Diedrickson's of P. H. S. are basketball, baseball, captainball, deckball, tennis, and track. Ist. Row Znd.

Culfome Economics Glub HE Home Econoiriics club under the direction of Miss Beyerly, the home economics teacher, has had very many interesting as well as important meet- ings during the past year. Because of the great number of girls who wished to belong to this club, it was decided that there should be certain qualifications required before any girl could belong, thereby making it a more select group. No one may belong to the club un- less she has taken up some work in the Home Economics course beyond the ninth grade. At the first meeting the girls elected the ofiicers for the year: President .......................,..,.........,........,..., Mary Ziegenfelder Vice President ......,. ..,,tt,.....,.....

Gne was on the care of the hair, another was on the care of the skin. During another pro- gram, three of the girls of the club gave a very interesting demonstration of mani- curing. At the next to the last meeting of the year it was the club's good fortune to secure Miss Sessi, from the Leever Bros. Co., who gave a very interesting talk on the washing and care of silk hose, sweaters, dresses, and gloves. For the last meeting of the year the value of home economics training and how it can help the girls earn money through the summer by taking care of children, the raising and canning of vegetables, the selling of flowers and even such a homely task as- helping clean house were discussed. -Elaine Hake. ooo PIQUONIAN THE... PIQUONIAN quture Cdarmers of Qlmerica HE F. F. A. is a national organization of boys enrolled in vocational agriculture. On September 6, 1931, vocational agriculture was added to the school system at Piqua, and from this department the Piqua chapter of America was organized, During the first year the local chapter made a fine record by winning sweep- stakes at a corn show sponsored by the Farmer's institute. A second place was also obtained in a grain judging contest of Miami county, in which there were five schools participating. At the end of the second year in the history of the Piqua chapter of F. F. A. a better record was obtained than that of the first year when the members won first place in the Miami county judging contest and later ribbons of high premium at the county corn show and the county fair. The local chapter is proud to announce a fine record of service to this com- munity through cleaning and oiling harness and testing seed corn. Also a success- ful banquet was sponsored, with the F. F. A. quartette and many individual mem- bers participating in the program that followed. The organization devised a plan by which it could arouse more interest and enthusiasm from each member by offering an honorary award every six weeks and a Star member award at the end of the year to the outstanding members. This plan proved successful and was adopted by the State organization at Colum- bus. A local member was sent to the state convention to explain this plan, and since many organizations have adopted it. Fifteen members were initiated into the chapter at the beginning of the year making the total enrollment thirty-nine in number.

Cffflie Q5-Zlfviation Glub HE Aviation club was organized shortly after the beginning of the second semester. Mr. Miles was advisor and room Z3 was used as the meeting place. Officers were elected at the first meeting and took office immediately. They were president, Dave Nichols, vice president, Joe Smith, and secretary, Bob Purdy. Undoubtedly, the most interesting feature of the club's program was its trip to the Waco Aircraft company in Troy. The members were taken on a tour of inspection of the plant and gained a great amount of valuable as well as interesting information. Mr. A. W. French, lr., gave a very interesting talk on Private Flying at one of the meetings. He developed the idea that it is fun to fly straight and level. He also gave some amusing accounts of his experiences while flying. Mr. R. E. Young, chief test pilot of the Waco Aircraft company, presented a talk on the manufacturing end of the aviation business. Mr. Young's talk was well received by the club. Mr. W. W. Kessler reviewed the air transport industry briefly and in an interest- ing manner, giving amusing sidelights from time to time. Mr. Kessler is station manager for American Airways, lnc., stationed at the Dayton airport. The other meetings were talcen up by discussions of pertinent subjects. Among those were discussions on the method of entering the Air Corps of the U. S. Army, and descriptions of airplanes that have figured prominently in aviation circles recently. The purpose of this organization was to acquaint and instruct its members in the fundamentals of present. day aviation. It is felt that this end has been accomplished. -Dave N icliols. Q.. PIQUONIAN THE.. PIQUONIAN 65,116 Latin Hub HE Latin club, organized last November, is the first organization of this kind to be formed in Piqua High school. This group met every two weeks in Miss Upton's room during the activities period with a membership of twenty-five. Any student who had had two years of Latin was eligible to join. Miss Upton made out the programs, which proved to be very interesting ones. At some of the meetings the members answered the roll call by giving the name of a great Roman ruler or by giving a Latin quotation. The talks were given by various members of the club. The Forumg the former market-place of the Romans, the famous Mamertine prison, a part of which still stands in Rome todayg the Circus Maximus, which was a large building where the Romans held their circusesg the tombs of Hadrian and other famous men, the catacombs, which were places of burial, the great rulers of Rome, and the chariot races and other sports of the Romans were some of the topics that were discussed during the meetings. One meeting was wholly devoted to the discussion of the life of the famous Roman, Julius Caesar. Much praise is due Miss Upton for her loyalty and her able assistance to the students in making this club a success. We, the members of this newly organized club, sincerely hope that, if the Latin Club continues next year, it will prove as interesting and successful as this one. -Beatrice Avy. Ist.

Elie Cffrencli Glub HE French club, christened the Fleurfde-Lis, was organized during the second semester andgturned out to be among the most active school organizations with a membership of forty-four pupils. The Fleur-defLis club was under the supervision of Miss Miller and was headed by the following officers: President ...............,,t.,tt.. Ruth Fisher Secretary .t,tttt ..,.,, M arian Freshour Vice President ............ Esther Snyder Treasurer ,tt.,..t.. .,...... L enora Simon All business was conducted in French, this manner testing the ability of students in comprehension and giving them experience in speaking French. One of the meetings was devoted to folklore, and several typical French folk songs were sung by the club. The most amusing meeting included playlets given entirely in French. , Miss Mary McKinney, a former member of the faculty, gave a very interesting talk on the French in Canada. She dwelt principally on Quebec and Montreal where French customs are adhered to and where there are many places of historical interest. Miss Catherine French's talk on Paris was also one of the highlights in the way of interesting meetings. Miss French, who studied at the Sorbonne, in Paris, was able to tell of many interesting details in French life which so many visitors to that country fail to discover. Through her intimate association with both the nobility and middleclass, Miss French has been able to gather the most interesting of French customs. A meeting with art as the subject proved to be educational as well as interest- ing. Paris as an art center was discussed and small reproductions of works of the old masters were shown, their fine points being the subject for a report. The story of French tapestries was fascinating as it deals with French history, events of the great wars, and the rulers. A resume of French literature, taking in both authors and their works, was the topic for another meeting. The French dramatists are among the most famous of the world, and the works of the novelists are read universally. -'Betty Yarman. -Nancy Lane. use PIQUCNIAN A JUNIORWHIGH ' 1:1 un i I L GEORGE CARTER Science Wilder Cillaculty MARGARET CLOUSE English RAY WALKER Mathematics AVALYN WILSON H.

Now he went way out west, But he liked us the best, So he ran right back here to be merry. Oh, we have in our midst little jean, The most modest of seniors, I ween. Now she drives a small Chev, And sure as you live--- Lucy Moore right beside her is seen. There is a fair lad named Bill Heater, At tennis he proves quite a beater. One day he jumped high At a ball that did fly-0 My oh my, how he damaged his seater! There was a young lady named jean Who regretted that she was not lean. For a while she didnit eat Any candy or meat, - But she's back now to peaches and cream. Oh, our William boy has little hairs, And daily for each one he cares. They grow on his lip, We hope they don't slip, Or a side show he'll be at the fairs. There is a fair senior named Gin Who knows how to sing and grin. She plays in her sleep And never does weep--- Oh, she looks quite as neat as a pin. There in a prim laddie named Vic Whose grooming is always quite trick, But a hole in his pants. He pressed once by chance-0 Alas, for that made him quite sick! .f5fX..f9f'X, A SENIOR'S GOAL I do not care if my studies are hard, For the end of school draws near, And brings to me the very last card That I earned with many a tear. I did not care for the wind and rain Nor the studies upon my mind, I only cried to make some gain To help along mankind. I do not care if older I've grown, My soul feels a stir of might, As I reach at last the graduate's throne-M Oh, what a glorious sight! -Clarence Reck. THE . . . PIQUONIAN THE , . .
