We’ll give three hearty cheers then For dear old Racine High RAH! RAH! RAH! Stand up and cheer. Cheer long and loud for Racine High School, For today we wave the Purple and Gold above the rest. Our school is striving And we are bound to win the praise We’ve got the steam We’ve got the team So hail to dear old high school days. page fourteen THE 1 9 3 7 R ACIN A page fifteen THE 1 9 3 7 R ACINA Senior Class History In 1933 we. a group of ninety boys and girls, were initiated into Racine High School, now' Southern Rural High School. As freshmen we had our dignity greatly suppressed, but that comes to us all. At the first meeting of our class Fritz Buck was elected president. Later, because of the admirable co-operation of all students, our tloat was awarded first prize at the Racine Community Fair. The sophomore year began with not so large an attendance as the preceding one, but we accomplished many things with Carrie Arnott as our president. Then came the junior year. Again with the aid cf all students and Richard Norris as our class leader this time, we earned seventy-five dollars with which wfe entertained the seniors with a prom at Middle port. But alas, too soon came our senior year. Mary Lew Philson was elected class president. Before we were aware of the fact, it was time to select our class motto, flower, and colors, and to make preparations for the closing year. Now', at the end ol our lour short years, we bid you farewell hoping that our accomplishments in the future will help you to remember us. page sixteen THE 1 9 3 7 RACINA Seniors MARY LEW PHILSON Col lege Prepara I ory Operetta (1) French Club Pallas Club Sophomore Vico President Junior Vice President Senior President Orchestra Concert RAY ROUSH Agriculture Basketball (2) ELOISE BELL General Orchestra Operetta (2) Concert CLARENCE BRADFORD Agriculture Highest Ranking Boy Student Pallas Club ROSE LEE College Preparatory Pallas Club Orchestra Operetta (2) French Club Concert RICHARD NORRIS Agriculture Junior President Senior Vice President F.

On the way I glance through my newspaper and read that Don Heiney, the new light-weight champion of the world, is lighting an exhibition match at Yankee Stadium. When 1 get out of the taxi and pay my tare, 1 notice something familiar about the driver It is Ray Roush! He tells me that he and Earl (lorham. who is an actor, share an apartment together. As 1 start to board the plane, who should greet me but air hostess. Rose Lee. She explains to me that the plane is chartered by a vaudeville troupe, and that 1 will be the only other passenger. When the troupe arrives, it turns out to be the one that is billed throughout the country as “Marcella Cleland and Her I ancing Darlings”. The “darlings’ are Eileen and Kathleen Boyd, Dorothy Varian, Hazel Shane, Verna Byers, Janice Buckley. Garnet Cozart. Josephone Wolfe, and Helen Cornell. I learn also, that Henry Linscott is the pilot of the airliner, and George Hayman, co-pilot. My first stop is Washington, D. C. It is just about four o’clock so I drop into a quaint little tea-room. The owner, reeogniznig me. comes forth to greet me, and what a pleasant surprise! It is Eloise Bell! We get to talking over old times”, and she tells me that Grace Salser is studing French in Paris in preparation for accepting a professorship at Columbia University. While 1 sit there sipping my tea. a senator is pointed out to me, and am I surprised when I realize I know him.Senator Ralph Smith is very popular among feminine voters, and his motto is The ‘pee-pul’ are always right.” Walking down Pennsylvania Avenue I meet Patty Shain now in the President’s cabinet as Secretary of Commerce. It is rumored that she is in line to be our next president. I decide to go to Chicago by train. While waiting for my train. 1 pick up The Chemist’s Journal and read that Margaret Spencer and Irene Wickline, working together, have made startling discoveries concerning the Periodic Table and the Automic Theory. On the train 1 meet. Quentin Hayman. James Hunt, Charles Lawrence, Earl Cross, and James Carpenter, who are big league baseball players and have just returned from winter training headquarters. On arriving in Chicago, I get on a sight-seeing bus. Noticing a group of women teachers up front. I speak to them and cry for joy! They are Adele Sargent, Kinder-garden teacher; Elma Martin, Home Economics teacher; Mary McCoy, w’ho teaches French; Virginia Philson. Public-Speaking teacher and Dramatic Instructor; Susan Ilolter, Mathmatics teacher, and Addie Mae Delaney. Commercial teacher. Feeling in need of a little relaxation, I decide to go out to dance. I choose the new club, Casamona, where Roger Wolfe and his “swing band” are playing with Nina Byers as their featured soloist. Edward Beegle, Mildred Roush and Lillian Hoback form a special acrobatic team. Fritz Buck and Paul Sayre play Hawiian guitars and sing. In San Francisco, I am invited to a luncheon given by the artists and writers club, w’hose members include Veda Wilcoxen, Magazine illustrator; Clarence Bradford, newspaper reporter; Mary Lew Philson, who writes an advice-to-the-lovelorn-column. (The public doesn’t know that she is now' getting rid of her fourth husband); Billy Grimm, cartoonist and poet; Sylvia Roush, playwright. Among the other guests present, at the luncheon w’ere Margaret Shelton, just returned from doing missionary work in China; Billy Pickens, a deep Sea Diver, and Isabel Harris, a famous surgeon. When I go to my Hotel in Hollywood I see a mob of women gathered around three hands me movie stars. As 1 get closer I recognize Joe Farra, Delbert Holter and Richaid Norris, signing autographs. Hilda Sayre, who designs clothes for the movie actresses, is also staying at this hotel. Maxine Roush, Ruby Smith, and Virginia Carnahan operate a Dude Ranch in Nevada As I start hcmew'ard, I am very happy to have met so many old friends.

Immediately following the organization the freshmen were initiated by the sophomores during a candle lighted ceremony. The club has an enrollment of twenty-three members. During the year the club studied the foods, clothing and customs of other countries. On October 29. the classes attended the first annual style show at Pomeroy. The object for having the style show was to develop friendship among Meigs County’s Home Economics Students and to aid in acquiring knowledge and skill in the selection of clothing. During the school term, the club purchased several pieces of equipment for the foods and sewing departments with money made at the Community Fair. page thirty-four THE 1937 RACINA Day students of Southern Rural High School.

Not only has the enrollment been the largest since the department was organized, but with the exception of Marietta, has the largest enrollment in the state. Outstanding accomplishments that might be pointed out as evidence of thrift is that of; enriched and adapted project programs, cooperative buying of seed and supplies, the introduction of purebred swine and sheep. Instruction is for the most part, concerned with the development and improvement cf home farm conditions and student needs. The ability to do has been a guiding principle rather than, ability to know. “Learning to do, doing to learn; learning to live, living to serve. page thirty-five THE R A C I N A 19 3 7 COMMERCIAL CLUB LEFT TO RIGHT FIRST ROW Clara Circle.

In spite of the loss of three star players in the class of‘36. a very good team was organized. The girls team was not quite so successful as the boys’ due to the fact that they too. had lost some good players in the class ol ‘36. The Purple Tornado again won the County Tournament beating Tappers Plains and Chester. After winning this Tournament we went to Logan on March 3 where we were defeated by the Plains. However, part ot this success can be attributed to the efficient coaching of Mr. Mira ben and the never tiring cheerleaders. We are looking forward to a still better team next year and hope our defeats will be avenged by some victories. THE 1936-37 TORNADOES ROBERT BEEGLE- Captain and forward combining speed and scoring power with fine defensive play to become the most outstanding player of the squad. Bob” is a junior and should do even greater things next season. JAMES BOSTICK Forward teaming with Beegle. It was next to impossible to penetrate them on the defense. ‘‘Race-horse is also a junior and should really go to town next year. GEORGE NEIGLER—This was George’s first year on the varsity, and he has proven ability to be outstanding both on the defense and offense. George is also a junior, himself to be one of the mainstays of the team. Combining height and scoring DARREL ROUSH Steve has speed and is most outstanding on the defense. His ability to score in the County Tournament was just one of his outstanding feats of the season. Next year is Steve’s last and should be his best. KEARNEY WICKLINE What Pud lacked in size, he made up for with his scrap and will to win. We'll see Pud again next season and expect a lot from him. ASHTON SAYRE Ash” alternated at guard and forward positions and proved that he has the stuff it takes to win. Lightning is also a junior and should give any teammate a run for his position. ROBERT Lee— Pappy reported for practice only a week before the tournament, but his ability to jump landed him a varsity post at once. With a little more experince Pappy” should become one of the leading scorers and the county’s best pivot man. We will see Pappy” next season. JAMES CARPENTER—Any team can be just as strong as its reserve power, and Carpenter has displayed spirit and cooperation that makes outstanding reserve material. We are sorry to see Jim leave this year. JAMES HUNT “Jim”, like Carpenter, was also a newcomer to the squad and will be lost with graduation.
