Bryan 2491 - 22nd St. Wyandotte, Mich. .MA .xdufoziograla g . . We, the members of the 100th and 101st graduation classes of the Wyandotte High School, are happy to dedicate this yearbook to Edward C. Bryan, valedictorian of the Class of 1885, who has given many years of unstinted service to Wyandotte. Born in Portsmouth, Ohio, August 2, 1867, Mr. Bryan was brought to this city by his mother on Sept. 16 of that same year and has been a resident here since. Shortly after his graduation from high school, he secured his first employment with the J. H. Bishop Co. In 1894 he was elected city clerk and re-elected the following year. During his second term in this official capacity, Mr. Bryan was nominated by the Republican convention as a candidate for member of the State Legislature, where he served four years. Then came appointment to Washington in civil service work on the 12th U.S. Census. After two years in Washington, Mr. Bryan returned to Wyandotte and married Miss Lillian Rogers, city librarian. To them were born two children, Lynn Edward and Jessie Nina CMrs. Edgar Haighl, both of whom are residents OI Wyandotte. Appointment to the Board of Public Works and election to the City Council followed. ln 1918 he was again elected to the office of City Clerk and held this position until 1932. During this period he served 10 years on the Wayne County Board of Supervisors, seven years as member of the execu- tive board of the Chamber of Commerce -three consecutive ML leclicafe . . Excerpts from E.C. Bryan's Valedictory Address deliver- ed at the 10th Commencement of Wyandotte High School, .Tune 20, 1885: The whole earth is but one grand conglomeration of supplies adequate to the satisfaction of every requirement of humanity. Nature was never niggardly. On man alone rests the responsibility of denying him his co-equal share of Nature's inheritance. The tendency of wealth is towards concentration. Human nature has corrupted equaluse of Nature's sources of wealth. Ignorance, neglect or contempt of human rights are the sole causes of public misfortune. Human rights are too sacred to be long held subservient to a doctrine of selfishness. Education and truth can produce a civilization in which poverty is unknown. terms as president, clerk of the Charter Commission which prepared our present city charter and seven years as president of the Wyandotte Boat Club. Other services to the political or cultural life of Wyandotte have been seven years a member of the Fire Department Civil Service Board, member of the Charter Revision Commission, member of the Board of Adjustments and Control of the city zoning ordinance, president of the Acanthus Art Club and member of the Centennial Commission. Mr. Bryan, in connection with his brother, William, also operated the Bryan Boat Works from 1907 until the death of the latter in 1953. ' His pastimes have been wild fowl shooting, boat racing fboth rowing and sailingJ,and his hobby is oil painting of marine and landscapes. Although nearing his 87th birthday, Mr. Bryan is mentally and physically alert and each day, even in the severest of weather, goes daily to the Bryan Boat Works to work on boats, do oil painting or to talk about Wyandotte - past, present and future, with old and new friends who drop in. Because of his service to his family and his community, because of his friendliness, because of his cultural qualities, his pride in his city and his desire to be active at an age when most people have long since retired, the graduating classes of 1954 salute with pride a graduate of 1885 and consider him A Great Guy! .4.

Carol Lakin, a member of the January Class of 1954, was every- body's friend. Her light-hearted charm and enjoyment of living brightened the lives of all who knew her. Ralph Taylor's conscientious and purposeful attitude toward his plans for beingadoctor, as well as his well-mannered bearing, earned for him the respect and admiration of his classmates and teachers. We pay loving and sorrowful tribute to the memory of these seniors who have left our midst but whose achievements and personalities have made indelible impressions upon our lives. .23. ia in your ie Mrs Rosa Lou W1lson, Norma Brown Ella Kmsey Harrls Inga Hanson, Charlene Blssett Carol Bowyer Cav1t1t1on Arnold Zeff Octop11 Frankl1n Modme Submar1ne Jockey Theresa Je1acs1ty Donna Laura1n Bob Ehrllch Hamlet II Edmund Rafferty Gayle Mayberry, Jackie Humphrey Joe Doyon Dorothy Harb1ezwsk1 Nancy Moore Grandma Moses II Rexene Adams Sally Norman Lorrle Gray Grandpa Moses Alex Sanger Shakespeare II Larry Mason Mary W1lson Rosallnd Shaw nr-1 l 'f r n Poet CAnd don t know 1tD Joan Longfellow, Clalre Upton Ga1l Dodson Webster II George Thompson, Nancy SHWICKI Pol1t1c1an Jerry S1mpson Jean Scruggs B111 Katz Captam Hornblower Dan Homolek Bruce Freeman, Steve Arnest Rob Rxggms, Don Robmson Canary Judy Fallu, Betty Toboy Tree Surgeon tout on a l1mbl Joan Long Jean Thon Mary Jane Wendell Carol Roush, Jerry McKay M I N Constructor of doorless b1rd cages for wlngless blrds Kenneth Head Wmgless Blrds Pat Boelter Kathleen Calnan Jerry Coon Glen Dobert Psychlatrlst Marle Kennedy Elalne Hooks Don F1sher, Mam1e Mann Cool Calm and Collector Barbara Schnexder Bev Schulaufman Crystal Gazer Grethchen Hoffman, Sand1e W1lk1nson Fred Menger Bxll Le1bengood John Muller Jackle Newell Tlger Ralph Peterson Secretary Joan Johnson Isabelle Bab1nsk1, Joan Lewandowskl Joan Gorskl 24 Strmg Tlcklers Juhus Blanchard, Edna Darago, Barbara Love , l C W Y r-1 M Y Y Prima Ballerina .... - ..............

Y 4 ,H The first hint I had of my existence came when the Wyandott Indians broke away from their paternal tribe, the Hurons in upper Canada, and followed the French settlers to Detroit. At this time I was forest. There was no part of me that was not nature. With a beautiful blue river at my front door, animals bountiful within me, and yet having a footing in firm, sandy loam, -- who could be more perfect than Ito personify the village of Monguaga for the Wyandott Indians? So they came, and solwas changed. Settling within the boundaries of Eureka,Oak Street Biddle Avenue and the River, my first government was established. Ibecame Indian, and yet being Indian, Iwas nature still, because these people carved their gods out of my natural aspects. The wind that had for centuries bowed the trees, now bowed the heads of my people -- it was a god. The sun that warmed me was given a life, and it too became a god. Though now it is merely a fixture in the sky, at the time of my story, the sun was a lightning bolt put in the sky by animals. They gave it life so it could travel, and thus warm all the earth. tAt that time the earth was much smaller than it is now, being only North America, or the l'Great Island as it was called. It wasn't round, either, but flat.J Since this sun could only travel east to west, a way had to be thought of to make it possible for it to get back to the east after it had reached the west. ..62.

X' If is :E JL 130,-n .XA is In 1853, the iron ore in Marquette, in my stattdlllicfrign, was made accessible by the Soo Locks to be trans- ported out to be manufactured. One vein, that h exc fllent quality was opened for mining by the newly organ- ized Eureka Iron Company. It was at this point, that Q problem presented itself. The company needed a blast furnace for the extracted ore, and they didn't know wgiether to build one near the mine, on Lake Superior, or not. On inquiry, they were advised not to, but to build ogtje connecting rivers between Port Huron and Gibral- ter. Anyone of several locations between these two points had a good supply of potential charcoal, year- round possible shipment of the finished pig iron, and places where the iron ore could be readily unloaded from the boats. ---- And of all the locations, I, the cobgigtry estate named Wyandotte for the tribe of Indians now gone, was the best. I changed giands to the tune of S44,140, sr S20 an lNot to brag, but I'm just a little bit better off now. All tol , in I 54, 'm worth roughly about 78,000,000. ,Q W-, This was 1854. I was born, Wyandotte, Michigan, on geciemher, 12 when 1 was officially filed with the County of Wayne by the Eureka Iron Works. 51.5 vyuf' I I E... . .55. And then I boomed. I became a golden era of industry. The beginning was a blast furnace with a 35 foot smoke-stack. Two years after construction was begun the furnace was ready for a short trial blast lasting one month. In this length of time,my furnace used up all the ore taken from the mine in Marquette! The mine, in this way, proved itself to be only a pocket of ore, and didn't waste much time at this point before becoming a pond. Financially, the Eureka Iron Works kept me at my w1t's end throughout its existence. For instance: fAt first, pig was bringing in a S5 profit., CThen came a panic, and the same pig was bringing in a S5 loss.J fThe Civil War came, bringing with it, profits as high as S60 a ton.J Un the 20 years between 1872 and 1892, prices went up, downl When the pig iron got down as far as a S5 loss again, lower than the price of production, the stack was blown out. The end of my parental founders had come. - 67 - Eureka Iron works Oh here I am, merely gomg along on my agmg one track mind' I ve almost forgotten to ment1on the Mllls of Wyandotte' When I was a year old 1n 1855 the dlrectors of the Eureka Iron Works bought a small rollmg m1ll ln New York, and moved lt here Th1s mlll boasted the ab1l1ty to turn out ten tons of f1n1shed 1ron a day and was set up south of the Eureka furnace Two years later, a second m1ll was erec e and was the only one of 1ts k1nd west of New York At th1s txme the need for ra1ls was, to say the least a 1 then than now as the old 1ron ra1ls were not made to last over ten years makmg It more perpetua process , necessary that ten per cent of a raxlroad track had to be taken up and re rolled everv year My next add1t1on came 1n 1860 and was a bo1ler plate m1ll It came to be that the WYANDOTTE bo1ler plate became known as the synonym for the BEST boxler plate The last of these mllls all of wh1ch had been respons1ble for maklng me Wyandotte the fastest growmg town 1n the m1dd1e west, for brxnglng me the forefathers and forerunmng ldeas of my present populatlon stopped for the last tlme rn December, 1892 I Q f 1 1 f t y . , . .

The talent of this mill was in re-rolling iron into iron rails -- .14 'bulzeef garrow Vigil 0- - - When I first became a city, a combined lock-up, library, and engine house was built at the corner of Biddle and Elm Street. The lock-up was an interesting one: Every Saturday night there came down the street the sound of a loaded wheel barrow on the dirt road of Biddle. A drunk, literally poured into the wheel barrow was being pushed to the station byaman with a badge. It was the weekly round-up. From this crude beginning, the police department working for me, improved. One day that I remember well, was when not one, not two, but three policemen, with not only badges, but uniforms came strutting down the street. A police force! Eurekee! . . . all three of it! The police have had three different headquarters. The second one was on Front Street, and the third, and incidentally the last, at Biddle and Pine. In this day and age, instead of three lonely men, there are four busy divisions, and not wheel barrows, but radio controlled cars! C- ire! I, Wyandotte, was not one to wait long before becoming a fire. hazard. It's one of my stories that literally sparks with excitement. Take 1870 for example. It was the beginning of my fire department of today. In that year fire was first considered dangerous enough to warrant a volunteer fire department. The actual post of being honored by the title of Volunteer Fireman, was in turn warranted by a dues of ten cents per month, per member. It makes me laugh to think back on these early fire-patrol days. A time I consider particularly funny, was when a hot summer day was in earnest progress and the half of the fire squad appointed to the job of pumping the water to the fire, were sadly lacking in the vim and vigor necessary to squelch it. The chief, sensing the situation, took the aim of the dwindling water supply, off the fired building, and turned the iced river water on the men at the pump. Needless to say, pumping was speeded up considerably, you should have seen their faces! The first step of my progress was an engine, the City of Wyandotte Cnamed for me, you understandj in 1875. The next year brought a newly organized Wyandotte Steam Fire Company ffl.

I was the pioneer shipyard on the Great Lakes during tue time when Michigan led every state in the Union in shipbuilding. Soon after E. B. Ward planned the yards here, he met Frank E. Kirby, and was very much impressed by the man's knowledge of naval architecture. Ward hired Frank and hy brother to build the buildings and prepare a ship- building plant for wQi'kI,f This team of three then proceeded to build an iron tug, the largest andbest ever builtup to that point. It was the E. B. Ward, Jr., a five hundred and,J'fifty-ton tug, launched in August 1872. This ship, if I remember correctly, was lost in the Gulf of Mexico about three years after this datk. ' E. 'Bt Ward directed the yards in building thirty ships. When the yards were bought in 1877 by the Detroit Dry Dock Company, the Kirby brothers keptiright on. Under them, the City of Detroit I was built. Also the City of Cleveland and 'the City of Detroit II -- the finest fresh water steamer in the world., --'With a 284 foot keel, it was made of steel, had a length of 330 feet, and gfmaliogany interior -- altogether costing S350,000.00. all these, the Kirby's real masterpiece was the freighter MARY- LANQf'which was built to carry iron ore for inter-ocean transportation. This ship jwas 337 feet overall, had a divided bottom, and to show just how big it really was, had the use of one-thousand, two hundred tons of steel rivets. The Tashmoo was one of the last ships built here and launched in the slip The shipbuilding industry ended for good two years after, in 1922 because of the nature of the work. It had been a spasmodic industry, though rich when in uction. All told, the hulls for 288 vessels originated themselves in me. ther great industry lived, made Wyandotte famous, and died. N.. K. x, .

Telephones, of course, have not always been as they are today. At one time, instead of the automatic switch board, there were boy operators. The only reason that I can figure as to why there aren't still boy operators is that they lacked the qualities of patience, and general adaptability. Girl operators took over the field. My first telephone directories contained no numbers, the calls being placed by and to direct names. I was hit by the telephone wire in 1880, when the Cahalan Brothers' Drugstore installed one that was to become one of my leading curiosities. The actual wires in these days were single iron wires, running over the housetops to the switchboard. Early telephoning, naturally, was expensive. There were few subscribers, and the company was finding it difficult to make the equipment. Anyway it was almost as easy for the housewife to open her back door and shout to her neighbors as it was for her to attempt to talk to them over the new fangled telephone. In 1912, my system was bought by Bell Telephone, which ended for good any reasons for shouting out the back door to the neighbors. CLUPC 25 . . . In 1816, a Methodist missionary arrived on my scene. This was the first bit of American religion lever received. As much as thirty years later this same denomination was meeting in a home on Elm Street. Their next meeting place, the old school house, took place with men on one side of the room, and the women on the other. The Methodists built a New England style church in the 1860's at Oak Street and Biddle. Before the turn of the century, the church standing there now, was completed. The Catholic Church was the second church to arrive in Wyandotte. St. Patrick's was organized in 1857, and was so named because of the many Irish laborers at the iron works. The Catholics first went by foot or horse cart to Ecorse to church. In the same year, however, a frame building was constructed at the present site of the church. The Ecorse priest was transferred, and from the time of 1881, the church was called St. Patrick's. At this time within my borders there are twenty-one Protestant and six Roman Catholic churches. f7mcAigan Q Y 11 MBU this isnlt YOUY' SYOP, lCourtesy of Wyandotte Chemicalsl Mr. Ford! The Eureka Iron Works were on their last legs. With a desperate need for fuel, they were importing fuel at a cost that threatened to blow out the furnaces. To add to their troubles, charcoal pig, which they manu- factured, had lost much of its need to the Bessemer steel. Since their furnaces were planned to making charcoal pig, a way had to be found, one of their expenses had to be cut so that they could still make the charcoal pig and sell at a profit. The directors decided to cut the fuel bill ....... Oil was discovered across the river in Canada. Mightn't the same vein be lying beneath Wyandotte? News traveled that a man from Ohio claimed that he could discover oil beneath the surface, with the use of his divin- ing rod, two pieces of whale bone tied together at one end. The man and his diving rod were imported ...... The man and his rod soon agreed, there was oil beneath the City of Wyandotte. After some disertation on whether this man had lost his marbles or not, the directors of the Company decided to drill anyway, because the chances seemed good enough to warrant the chance. KI knew, of course, but who was I to spoil their fun? Besides, I knew if they didn't drill, I wouldn't be around longj Later, when it was decided that The Eureka Iron Works would either strike oil, or establish telephone connections with China, the drillers hit salt, salt, and more salt. About this same time a Captain J. B. Ford was on his way from Pittsburgh to the Solvay Plant in Delray. Because of a chance conversation on the train, with a Wyandotte man, he never reached Delray, instead dis- boarding the train at Wyandotte took an option on land and soon after established the J. B. Ford and Company, using the salt in his plate glass manufacturing. -72.

Instead of a little red school house, which would make me the same as every other city I've ever heard of, I, Wyandotte started out with a little BROWN school house! Another name for it was the First Ward School, located between Biddle and First, on Chestnut. The two other buildings which made up my educational system in 1872 were the Third Ward School. and the high school. Oh how different it was! Instead of a central heating system as 1 have now, in all my schools, there was only an iron stove. Instead of today's ice-cold old facefuls, there was a pail of water, and one tin dipper. And my, were the teachers strict! There was by no means the problem of today's handholding, but instead, a seating arrangement that put the boys on one side of the room and found the girls on the other! Neither could they pass notes! Well, no, I guess they COULD but if they were caught, they became the subject of a raw hide whip! There was a practice back in those, my younger days, that if brought back into style now, would simply knock me off my bearings -- that was, the f'Good Morning to you, Dear Teacher sung every morning -- con- fidentially, I think the teachers would faint, too! From the time I was born, when Wyandotte was known to have 125 children studying their readin', writin' and 'rithmetic, I have progressed in this field until Iam known now, to have a grand total of 10,503, studying such things as debating, chemistry, home management and shorthand! 'Nw- ..' 'N Qs 4f 'X The class of 1885 - 74 - falfebflg - - o Puma In the story of my history, the people have gotten places in the strangest ways possible. At first, of course, they walked. Then they rode, and the horses walked. The next thing they discovered about traveling from one place to another, was that they could sit behind, in a kind ofcarriage affair, and let the horse PULL. And then they tired of that altogether, and took to the Trolley Cars, the smelly, jerking, noisy, rocking, rattling Trolley Cars. When these went out of use, I entered the period of today, with the automobile. Often, when I reflect the past, it makes me cringe from whatever the future has in mind to bring meg for from the quiet stroke ofa moccasin on the earth, I have come to the noisy screech of brakes at every stop light and stop street I own. If this is the trend, to become louder and louder and LOUDER, Iwonder how I'm going to sound in ten years, Hmmmmm? CRASH! BAMB! 1f'Z, ! pfaying . . . Since the personality of a town follows the activities organized within it, I was, in 1920 chiefly Baseball. Specifically, Iwas known as the Hillsides . . . a champion team, not deserving of their name at all, as their half of the score in every game they played stayed right up .there at the top, and never had occasion to slip down to the bottom. I have also been known as Football. These were the Wyan- dotte Arrows with their green and gold jerseys. This team not only had a genius for winning games, and making me famous, but also had it all over everybody else when it came to getting people to pay when they wanted to watcha game. This was done by having the people first buy little green cards, informing them that thev were at that moment, Arrow Boosters. After this build up, contributions were of their oum free will -- and people DID contribute! In the 1880's I was the Rowing champion of the world! It all started when the first club, with its boat house at the foot of Vinewood, won its first race exactly one hundred years to the day after Tom Jefferson andafew others signed the Declaration of Independence. Some of the outstanding prizes in Wyandotte's rowing history are: 1927, champions of the United States and Canada, 1928, only American club crew to take part in the Olympic Tryouts at'Philadelphia, 1891, Championship of Amer- ica at Saratoga Lake, first American crew in rowing history to win the Hanlon Memorial trophy two years in succession. Here's to three great sports that have made my name, Wyandotte, famous. Other, not so vigerous forms of entertainment that are con- tained in my story are mascarade balls, picnics in the three groves that I owned, quilting parties and the water sports of swimming, water excursions, skating and boating. From the trolley trails of yesterday . . . Biddle Avenue with its nervous traffic of the present motorized era has always been the center of Wyandotte's transportation. During the early days of the Indian community, Biddle Avenue was but an Indian trail, quiet, peaceful and unhurried. speed became the god of transportation, came the motor car and truck ,A 1 1 kv v , 'r 57 .IV Then came the horse and buggy days, the trolley down the center of the wide thoroughfare, and as I l 1 X X X What will the Biddle Avenue of the future be? Will it be a canyon between 15 and 20 story buildings and the chief thoroughfare of a still growing metropolis, or will other cities grow around Wyandotte and hem it in? Time alone will tell. To today's sound of rubber screeching, in harmony with the angry, rushed toot of a horn. w Y' fi? , 1-Q-'www--r.,..,,, :- vi 3 9 ff? 55 to Phrliamentary procedure NOW f Z-v 1 lr ig WL.. x X I V At Podium: Dean Sloan, President.

Instead of being very warlike, the representatives of organizations and activities classes helped to promote defense, sponsoring war-bond and paper drives, etc. The RSU, as seen above, came about at the end of the war with representatives elected from the English classes. Items such as the trophy case, transportation to the away games, a supply store, a traffic light, mock presidential elec- tions during election years, City Government Day, a bulletin board, and Red Cross drives have been created through the efforts of the RSU. The RSU also dug deep to retrieve pennies for support of Elzbeita Jucha, Polish war orphan and has sponsored gift packages to other foreign countries. rirst now: Uiive Ann Allen, Kathryn Kilts, Beverly Pobursky, Larry Gray, Katherine Townley, Beverly Purdy, Barbara Purdy, Lydia Lomej, Barbara Love, Patricia Darago, Jean Scruggs, Barbara Ann Green, Sharon Hessler, Barbara Ritchie.

The Bruins had a good chance to win the Border Cities League crown if they could beat the invaders from the River Raisin City. We lost a heart- breakerg 13-7. Lincoln Park was the next Bear victim. The Railsplitters were undefeated up to this point and were en- joying a healthy position in the state ratings. This position was short-lived. The Bruins handed them a humiliating 40-12 setback. The Fordson Tractors were the next to fall. This was done on a cold, slippery field as the Bruins came out on top, 7-6. The final game ofthe season was with Grand Rapids Union who provided very little opposition and yielded 27-7. Congratulations are extended to Dick Hoffheims who rounded out the boys and came in with a winning season of five wins, three losses, and one tie. Although the curtain is dropping fourteen gridders, the best of luck goes with you, coach, in your following campaigns! -103- .

Although the Dottes ended up with an unimpressive three wins, ten losses record, Len Sweet's first season as head mentor promises to produce basketball powers in the future. He hada fighting bunch of boys who stood up well against the leaders of the state, Fordson, Flint Northern, and Highland Park. The Bruins best showing of the year was at the Regionals in Ann Arbor. They tangled with Jackson in the Regional finals, but the boys from the Prison City'l proved to be too much. -106- f aflll-EIU ag E QQ .Agnus LL-L...J. 'Lg I UID ...J il fx 'nan iw.: lf!

The Bear track team is much improved this year, especially since almost all of the boys are returning vet- erans. Coach Milton Powell related at the beginning of the season, that the track team would provide more competition than in previous years. The greatest strength for the Thin Clads is the hundred-yard dash, the mile run, shot put, and the broad jump. Coach Powell is assisted by Al Pingle, cross country coach this year.
